    •   The development does not introduce new services or activities but provides improved facilities for the
        existing lifesaving and emergency response operations.

    •   Accordingly, no additional car parking demand will be generated, and there will be no increase in the
        existing onsite car parking requirement or shortfall.

    •   The proposed facility will accommodate existing lifesaving, lifeguarding and emergency response
        equipment and rescue vehicles.

    •   During normal operations, rescue equipment and vehicles will be deployed directly to Sunshine Beach
        and returned to the facility for storage.

    •   Where rescue vehicles or equipment require offsite servicing, maintenance or repairs, they will utilise the
        Club's existing driveway and established vehicle access arrangements.

    •   Existing commercial service vehicles attending the Club, including food, beverage and stock deliveries
        and other servicing activities, will not require access to the proposed facility. These activities will continue
        under existing arrangements.

    •   No new vehicle access points or changes to existing vehicle access arrangements are proposed.

Relevant Plans: Revised Andrew Bock Architectural Plans dated 13 October 2026.
