proposed indoor sport and recreation uses are undeniably compatible and complementary uses
within Medihub, and will activate existing approved floor space, improve operations of the site
and support the broader function of the Centre.

The proposal aligns with Overall Outcome (2)(h) of the Noosaville Local Plan, which identifies the
Noosa Business Centre as the primary focus for employment generating development, across
education, health and wellness, digital economy, environmental industries and professional
services sectors. The introduction of additional indoor sports and recreation uses within the
vacant tenancies strengthens this by supporting small businesses, creating employment
opportunities, and expanding the range of health and wellbeing services within this Centre. The
location of medical, health and wellness use within the Medihub building delivers clear
community benefits and represents an efficient and logical land use outcome consistent with
the Local Plan’s strategic intent.

Issue – End of Trip Facilities
The existing building was established and assessed in accordance with the superseded Noosa Plan
2006 requirements and does not currently include the required number of end of trip facilities. It is
acknowledged that the carparking requirements are met as the development provides car parking
at a rate of 1 space per 20m2 which is consistent with the current requirements. End of trip
facilities are required to address Performance Outcome PO6 of the Driveways and Parking Code.
Table 9.4.1.4 of the Driveways and Parking Code stipulates that where five or more bicycle parking
spaces are required, end-of-trip cycle facilities are provided
at the following rate—
     (a) one locker per two bicycle parking spaces; and
     (b) one shower cubicle with ancillary change room per ten bicycle spaces or part thereof.

The proposal seeks to establish 5 indoor sport and recreation tenancies with a total gross floor
area of 457m2, bicycle spaces are calculated at a total of one space per 50m 2 up to 500m2. A total
of 10 bicycle spaces, 5 locker spaces and one shower cubicle with ancillary change room is
required.

Advice Required
Provide additional information to demonstrate how Performance Outcome PO6 of the
Driveway and Parking Code is achieved. This should include:
     (a) Provide parking in accordance with the requirements of Table 9.4.1.4 of the
     Driveways and Parking Code.

Stockwell Response
As noted by Council, the carparking provisions are met; the rate of parking is consistent with the
current requirements at 1/20m2.There is no change to carparking provision required.

With consideration to End of Trip facilities including bicycle parking, lockers and shower
cubicles, each tenant would provide these within the tenancies by connecting to the existing
infrastructure (i.e. plumbing connection to each tenancy). Additional bicycle parking can be
provided on site.
