Dear Chief Executive Officer,
I beg you to reconsider the possible development of our Bowls club into a supermarket & shopping centre!!!!!
 
I moved to the Sunshine Coast in 2000, am a professional 55yr old woman, thought I'd 'try' a few suburbs out, before deciding where to settle. Noosa was one.... too busy & not that friendly, Sunshine Beach was the next.... quite nice but not that friendly.. then I came to Peregian Beach.
At once, I felt I belonged here. 
I am a sports fanatic, everyone here seems to do some sort of exercise... people are extremely friendly, people walk along the streets, traffic slows.. I spend my Sat & Sun afternoons having coffee in the square with a lot of other locals & play tennis near the Community Centre other mornings.
I find, like everyone else here.. .that we have ample supermarkets in the area... takes 5minutes to get to our Peregian Springs Coles! Any smaller items we might need, finds us all at the local supermarket in the village or at Bent Banana.
 
We ALL want the area kept as a recreational area on the other side of the David Low Way.. WE DO NOT want more traffic or roundabouts in that tight small area... we love the atmosphere of the village... 
PEREGIAN BEACH is definately UNIQUE!!!
 
What I also find, is if people ask me at work (In Cooroy)..where do I live... when they hear Peregian Beach... EVERY SINGLE PERSON would say, "Oh, I love that place... it's got a such a nice 'feel'!!"
That it has.
We do not want it to change, and it will!!!!
More families are moving in here, also... and they want sporting facilities closeby.
Let's spend the money on 'updating' facilities as they are... not pull buildings down to make way for a new sterile unwanted shopping area!!!!
 
PLEASE RE CONSIDER.. AND THINK OF THE LOCALS AND WHAT WE WANT RATHER THAN THE ALMIGHTY DOLLAR!!!!!
 
Yours sincerely,
Dr. J. Bosher
