(ATTENTION: MARK LEWIS)

 

Further to our application for a finger jetty at our complex (Sails Royale, 26 Sunseeker
Close, Noosa Waters) I would supply additional information to show cause as to why we
will not clutter the water course.

A. REASON FOR APPLICATION

Our complex consists of 6 townhouses. Hence there is the potential, and expectation of
the owners, for 6 boats.

Currently there are 4 boats and 4 berths.

One unit owner, who resides in Sydney, but spends several | month stints per year in
their unit, rent a boat whilst they are here. ie 5 boats and 4 berths. One of the other unit
owners kindly removes his boat from the water on a temporary basis to overcome any
berthing problems.

The other remaining unit holder has advised he retires in August and will be living in his
unit permanently. He has purchased a boat which is currently in storage until August.
This will mean there will be 5 boats and 4 berths on a continuing basis and on occasions
6 boats and 4 berths.

The Body Corporate and individual unit owners are supportive of the needs for sensible
controls on the management and developments associated with Noosa Waters canal
system, but believe that access to safe mooring facilities is one of the benefits of
purchasing canal properties. We strongly believe that the application for the construction
of a second finger jetty be approved as it will provide the safest least waterway
restriction and aesthetically pleasing option, for mooring six boats, for the six owners of
the “Sails Royale” complex.

Hence — The situation is becoming extremely critical and I would request Council give
serious consideration to the approval of this application — without setting precedent.

B. REASON FOR REJECTION OF PREVIOUS APPLICATION (2007)
Concern over “CLUTTERING THE WATER COURSE”

C. REASONS WHY “CLUTTERING THE WATER COURSE” SHOULD NOT BE
OF CONCERN.

1. Our complex (6 Townhouses) is located at 26 Sunseeker Close, Noosa Waters on
the Northern side of the canal.

To the immediate SE is Public Open Space occupying approx. 50 m of canal wall.
To the immediate NW is a drainage easement occupying approx. 5 m of canal wall.
This is immediately adjoined by “The Entrance” Resort which has continuous_.can
frontage to where it meets Gibson Rd — approx. 500m.

In this distance they have 4 jetties. Our property has | jetty and | finger. The next
jetty location to the SE is approx. 65 m away and would be approx. 60 m away from
our proposed application

5. So, in an overall distance of between 600 and 700 m there are 6 jetties and | finger.
We are requesting the addition of 1 more finger.

6. There would be no loss of visual amenity

THERE ARE MANY EXAMPLES AROUND THE CANAL WHERE THE

DENSITY OF JETTIES IS MUCH GREATER THAN THIS.

SEE PHOTOS ATTACHED. (Showing just a few examples)

9. Our complex is located on a section of the canal where the width of the canal is
70 m, probably wider than any other part of the canal.

10. We currently have no jetties directly opposite us. (2 vacant blocks plus one house).
Even if all 3 sites eventually have jetties, due to the width of the canal there should
be no cause for concern re: Congestion or visual amenity.

11. At other sections of the Estate the canal is narrower and have jetties on both sides of
the canal that are closer together — yet, Council has approved all of these jetties.

12. If we are unsuccessful with our Application, 2 boats may well be moored in such a
way as to create a water hazard.

13. I stress that our site is unique on the Noosa Waters Canal Estate in that:

a. Weare on the widest part (70m) of the canal

b. We have 50m P.O.S. frontage on one side

c. We have a 5m easement on the other side immediately adjoined by “The
Entrance” Resort with approx. 500m frontage.

=

%

Therefore Congestion of the Water Course and Visual Ammenity would not be of
concern

AGAIN, WE WOULD RESPECTFULLY REQUEST COUNCIL GIVE EVERY
CONSIDERATION TO APPROVING OUR APPLICATION FOR A JETTY FINGER
(Note: We are not applying for a full blown jetty — simply a finger) WHICH WILL
ENABLE OUR COMPLEX TO OVERCOME OUR MOORING SITUATION.
