Dear Mr Lewis
 
My name is Lyn McAndrew, and I am one of the 'only five' objectors to the approval of the proposed quad bike tour business to be located on Tablelands Rd Cooran. My reasons for objection are already available to you, but can I clarify that the section of Tablelands Rd where the business is located is a (up until now) rural residential area, with relatively few properties compared to most other locations. The number of objections has little relevance compared to the impact of change of use on other residents, and the potential impact of the business on the values of the Woondum national park.
 
I take this opportunity to reiterate my objections to the approval of the business in this area. Surely the SCC should be ensuring that home-based businesses which exceed the requirements of the Noosa Plan should be required to locate in areas already designated for larger-scale home-based businesses. The proposed business is not home based as it relies on the continual use of public roads and national parks in a multi-vehicle format, well beyond its boundaries. The change of use also effectively undermines the rural residental zoning of all other property holders in the affected area.
