E.S 4 The mix of Speciality Shops is still in the pre-commitment stage,
          however, interest has been shown from the following range of
          tenants, some of which exist in the traditional Village Square
          but who wish to expand/modernise:

                   1. Bottle Shop,
                  2. Noodle Bar,
                  3. Newsagency,
                  4. Pharmacy,
                  5. Coffee Shop,
                  6. Medical Centre,
                  7. Australia Post,
                  8.   Bakery,
                  9. Bank, and
                  10.Travel Agent.


E.S 5 The         Noosa    Plan’s Eastern    Beaches              Locality Code’s overall
                                                                        "
          outcome for Peregian Beach is, inter alia,                    a wide range (our

          emphasis) of local Retail, Commercial and Entertainment and
          Dining Uses within the neighbourhood centre serve the
          immediate needs of residents and visitors of the locality", and
          "For the Open Space Recreation Zone         areas of open space
                                                                   -




          contribute to the desired lifestyle of residents by offering a
          variety of passive and active recreational experiences that are
          conducive to community interaction and wellbeing".
          Section 7.7 of the Code states that "Development complies
          with the Eastern Beaches Locality Code if it-
          7.7.1 fulfils the specific outcomes for the locality in Division 15;
          and
          7.7.2    is a consistent use and fulfils the specific outcomes for
          the relevant zones (Divisions 16 to 24)"
          The     proposed       development         complies            with   the specific
          outcomes of Division         15, however, it does not                 comply with
          Division 1 6 as the proposed development uses are inconsistent
          with the preferred uses for the Open Space Recreation Zone.
E.S 6 It    would       seem     reasonable     to    conclude              that the   Eastern
          Beaches Locality Plan and Code are no longer applicable, as
          withthe passage of time and events since it initially
          commenced in 1997 and subsequently updated in February
          2006 (7 years ago), it has been overtaken by time and
          development trends beyond those anticipated by the Plan
          and Code, as evidenced by:
                     the closure of the Peregian Beach Caravan Park
                       .


                     and its proposed replacement by the P & E Court
                     approved ’Scanlon’ mixed use development not                       -
