Figure 5   Existing Car Park Layout



No changes to the existing access and parking arrangements are required to facilitate the establishment of 98
Gym on the site.
The Noosa Plan 2020 identifies the demand for Indoor Sport and Recreation to be 1 space per 20m2 of Gross
Floor Area (GFA). Based on a total GFA of 164m2 this would equate demand to be approximately 8 parking
spaces out of the total 21 spaces available. Given the shared customer base and patronage between both of
the tenants on the site and the differing peak demand times of each tenant, the strict allocation of parking
spaces between tenants is not considered necessary.
It is noted the building is approved to accommodate professional Office and Health Care Services, both
accepted uses within the Major Centre zone. Under the Driveways and Parking Code these land uses have
an equivalent parking demand factor as the proposed Indoor Recreation (Gym) land use (1 spare per 20m2)
and as such, the parking demand is not considered to increase with the operation of the proposed Gym under
the Noosa Plan 2020. Rather, with the differing peak periods of the two tenancies the proposed gym will
facilitate an improved arrangement whereby vehicle spaces can be shared at differing times by each tenant.
Understanding that the quantum of gross floor area across the entire building results in a calculated demand
which exceeds the 21 vehicle spaces available however, a detailed examination of Performance Outcome
PO6 of the Driveways and Parking Code has been undertaken in Section 10.3.3 below.
