                 Reference : MCU16/0153 & REC16/0041

                 To whom it may concern,

                 My attention has recently been drawn to the size and scope of the above referenced
                 Development Application for a site adjacent to the Peregian Beach village shopping
                 precinct.

                 I would like to lodge a strong objection to this proposed application for a number of
                 reasons as outlined below.

                 The development site has been the subject of a series of Development Applications
                 over the years that have resulted in the Developer agreeing to an agreed scope of
                 works and then after a short lapse of time, submitting to council a revised scope of
                 works that exceeds the said scope of work previously agreed to. And further, after
                 making these several applications, until quite recently, very little actual work has taken
                 place to reflect the scope of work originally sought and agreed. I believe the original
                 scope of work (2009) called for only a modest “Seven-11” style supermarket on the site
                 whereas, now, a “Bunnings” sized shopping precinct has been built that houses the
                 large IGA store.

                 The new IGA store is now attracting sufficient trade with its associated traffic flows to
                 seriously impact the flow of traffic passing the Peregian Beach shopping precinct.
                 Traffic from the IGA’s car-park is directed to travel northwards and either continue north
                 or in order to travel south, firstly travel north and then make a U-turn about the round-
                 about close to the Pub before heading south. The impact on present traffic flows is
                 further aggravated by pedestrian traffic moving either to or from the IGA site across the
                 David Low, via the pedestrian crossing, to the Peregian Beach shopping precinct. Such
                 pedestrian traffic right-of-way, obviously, further impedes traffic flows. The impact of
                 over 50 housing sites within the proposed Application with their associated expected
                 vehicle traffic volumes will further add to the present over-taxed situation and will add
                 further significant traffic flows to this already congested traffic-flow problem.

                 The proposed Application also calls for the dumping of significant volumes of land-fill on
                 the site which, apart from obliterating part of the established wet-lands and creek areas,
                 will require the use of significant numbers of heavy duty large earth-moving trucks to
