2. The Site

     2.1. Location

            This development proposal relates to part of the Noosa Springs project:

            (a) Noosa Springs is located at Noosa Heads and comprises 103 hectares of land. It
                is approximately 3 kilometres from Hastings Street. The Eenie Creek Arterial road
                is located to the north. The Noosa National Park and Lake Weyba are situated to
                the south. The Elysium residential estate lies to the west and land owned by
                Noosa Council is to the east.

              (b) Precinct J is located centrally within Noosa Springs and is surrounded by the
                completed golf course (holes 10, 11, 12, 17 and 18). Part of the site is located
                where the 18th tee and first part of that golf hole is currently situated. It is
                relatively close to the Noosa Springs clubhouse and its sporting/recreation
                facilities.

     2.2. Site Description

            The site comprises Lot 3 on SP178323 County of March, Parish of Weyba. The
            proposed Precinct J site, including the access strip connecting it to the public road,
            has an area of approximately 3.06 hectares within Lot 3 above.

     2.3. Previous Use

            The area of the development proposal has been used for many years to grow plants
            for relocation within the project and several hundred palm trees are currently
            growing on a major portion of the site. It has also been used to store building
            materials over recent years. Part of the development site is currently the 18th hole
            tees and the first part of that golf hole.

     2.4. Topography

            The area of the proposed development is located towards the eastern side of Noosa
            Springs. The land is gently sloping with falls of approximately 1:18 from east to west
            (RL 9 to RL 3.5). There is a depression in the southwest corner that drops to RL 1.5.
            The site is wholly above the Q100 flood level.
