Ttm Group Peregian Beach Assessment

       Constructing a new community use building with a use area of 335m2;
       Approximately 4,300m2 of public open space;
       61 parking spaces for the digital hub including:
            o 17 spaces available for use by the general public;
            o The removal of 35 formal spaces from the existing community use;
       23 parking spaces for the community use, with 5 of these additional to the required 17 spaces;

The Town Planning report for the development application identifies that Stage 1 comprises ‘a new office
building having a floor area of about 772m2 and includes the café. Stage 2 includes the refurbishment and
expansion of the existing community house for office use and construction of a new community house. Whilst
floor areas are provided for each office building are provided, the use areas are not. As such, TTM are not able
to undertake a detailed assessment of potential parking impacts of Stage 1 and 2 separately. The report also
identifies the open space and 61 space car park will be constructed in Stage 1.

            b. Rufous Street Precinct Master Plan

The Town Planning report notes that the ‘remaining improvements shown on the Master Plan such as car
parking in Rufous Street…do not form part of the development application’.

The key aspects of the Rufous Street Master Plan outside the Development Application primarily relate to
formalising parking along Rufous Street. TTM have reviewed Attachment A (Rufous Street Precinct Master
Plan) in the town planning report in the context of the existing parking facilities in this location. The changes
in the Master Plan include:

       Replacing signed parking along the Rufous Street verge (25 spaces) with 20 formal and 8 informal
        parking spaces for a net gain of 3 spaces;
       Replacing Area 4D (15 spaces) with a pocket park (6 spaces) for a 9 space net loss;
       Replacing Area 4C (16 spaces) with verge parking for 50 spaces subject to DNR approval. This is noted
        as Item 4 in the Rufous Street Precinct Master Plan and will create a net gain of 34 spaces.

Formalising parking along Rufous Street will therefore result in a net loss of 6 spaces without changes to Area
4C or a net gain of 28 spaces with this change.

4. Parking Impact of Development Application MCU16/0044 and the Rufous Street Precinct Master Plan

            a. Parking Impact of Development Application MCU16/0044

The key parking impacts relating to the Development Application result from an increase in parking demand
for the office and café (46 spaces as required by Council’s planning scheme) and change to parking supply (net
gain of 47 spaces). Parking demand for the community house is already included in the parking survey. The
