                 Re: Application Number MCU25/0118
                 Description: Development Permit for Material Change of use by Coast2Bay for Multiple Dwellings – Affordable Rental
                 Premises 25 small dwellings plus one community room.
                 Site Address: 64 Lake Macdonald Drive, Cooroy Qld 4563 on Lot 2 (part) SP348613
                 To whom it may concern,
                 I make the following submission to Council in response to the DA advertised in the Noosa Today on Friday 31 October, and request the
                 above mentioned application be recommended for refusal on the following grounds:
                 The development is too far from essential services

                 The proposed dwellings are not “located close to activity centres, with ease of access to public and active transport networks.” It is a
                 1.4 to 1.7km walk to essential services in Cooroy.

                 Also, there is no bus stop on Lake Macdonald Drive for scheduled bus services and pedestrian access to Cooroy town is poor from the
                 site.

                 Proposed building would be an eyesore in that location

                 The engineering report says “the built form of the development follows the natural topography, providing three separate levels,
                 but adhering to Council’s height limits.” The surroundings are low density one storey houses and open space cemetery land on the
                 edge of Cooroy. Coast2Bay’s development would visually dominate and upset the semi-rural -residential (and cemetery) character of
                 the area.

                 Major cemetery impacts

                 I live in Tewantin where the cemetery is almost at capacity. Why has this Council-owned land intended for future cemetery been
                 identified as unnecessary for the cemetery?

                 The character of the cemetery will also be negatively affected if there is a high-medium density apartment block on the boundary.

                 Yours sincerely,
                 Submitter Name: Vicki Anne Carter
