                 1.     APPLICATION DETAILS

                  Application No.                MCU22/0201

                  Street Address:                34 Elm St Cooroy Qld 4563

                  Real Property Description:     Lot 4 RP 72698, Lot 5 RP 72698, Lot 6 RP 72698

                  Planning Scheme:               Noosa Plan 2020 (25 September 2020)

                 2.     INFORMATION REQUIRED

                 The information requested is set out below:
                 Issue – Use Conflict
                 The proposed carwash is considered an industrial use by the Noosa Plan and is contrary to
                 the zoning intent for the site for a mid-range of retail, offices, healthcare, business, community,
                 entertainment and recreation activities, with alternate land in Cooroy zoned for industrial
                 activities.
                 The Strategic Outcome 3.3.5 (s) (ii) (G) specifically seeks that the eastern side of the Cooroy
                 town centre retains its service role to support the district centre by providing small scale, local
                 convenience goods and services for nearby residents, which may include a small-scale
                 supermarket provided the need can be economically justified.
                 PO9 of District Centre Zone Code also seeks that at the edges of the District Centre zone
                 lower intensity business and community uses will form a transition to residential uses.
                 The carwash is proposed to serve a much broader area than intended by the Strategic
                 Outcome for the area, serving the Noosa hinterland and is not considered a low intensity
                 business or community use with the applicant’s design expert estimating the car wash will
                 provide for about 68,000 car washes per year, based on the trade area, which is a substantial
                 number, with the proposed carwash to operate 24 hours.
