 diverted from driveway            driveway will be sealed prior to the commencement of the use by the
                                   applicant. Stormwater from the sealed driveway will be appropriately
                                   directed as to not negatively impact the surrounding properties.
                               •   A portion of the existing unsealed driveway will be sealed prior to the
                                   commencement of the use by the applicant.

                               •   The intensity of vehicle movements with Short-term Accommodation
                                   will be less than a household occupied 100% of the time. Historical
 Deterioration of driveway
                                   data would see a STA property used approx. 65% of the time, hence
                                   far less vehicle movements than a normal household. Thus, the
                                   potential impact on the driveway by the proposed Short-term
                                   Accommodation use is significantly reduced.

                               •   The existing dwelling and proposed Short-term Accommodation use
                                   contains a two-car garage. The existing garage and driveway is
                                   made available for guests and has the capacity to park 6 vehicles.
 Carparking on driveway
                               •   The proposal complies with the requirements of the Driveways and
                                   Parking Code as the existing dwelling has sufficient covered and
                                   uncovered parking spaces for the use of residents and visitors alike.

In summary, the concerns raised by the submissions against the development are either:

    •   not relevant to the proposed Short-term Accommodation use (line of sight); or

    •   not a result of the proposed Short-term Accommodation (deterioration of existing driveway).

It is recommended Council support the proposed Short-term Accommodation use as:

• The strategic framework and outcomes identify the importance of tourism in Noosa Shire and are
   supportive of ensuring amenity of both visitors and permanent residents are maintained;



                                                                     PO Box 1818      07 5474 3873
                                                                     Noosa Heads      [email protected]
