Further information in regard to Application for a Jetty Finger · OPW11/0172

>

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.
