of the Noosaville Medical and Professional centre at 88A Goodchap St for medical uses has
improved with the departure of CQU. Other medical services are also likely at the Noosa Business
Centre.
There is no guarantee rezoning of this land would generate affordable housing, beyond
redevelopment of the social housing lots owned by the state. Redevelopment is likely to be a very
long term prospect and to some extent would rely on adjoining properties being developed together
to get any real gains in efficiencies of dwellings. Individually they are unlikely to yield more than a
duplex on each lot.
Traffic analysis is necessary to inform consideration of this concept, reviewing the capacity of both
the road and the roundabouts at both ends. This will require updated traffic counts as existing ones
are now several years old and do not account for the roundabout at Hilton Terrace. While it would
be premature to rezone this area, Council might initiate assessment and traffic analysis to review
and understand the capacity of the road network and roundabouts in this area.
