         competition, the Princess Hotel a 5-star European-styled hotel, the King Hotel being the first golf
         themed hotel in Asia, a European-styled town centre and many luxury villas and resort
         apartments. Dragon Lake provides extensive short-stay accommodation and is regarded as one

2.1.2 Address and land title
         The site address is Links Drive, Noosa Heads. The land has a broad frontage to Resort Drive,
         Noosa Heads and the development site is part of Lot 4 on SP 178340 comprising 3.804 hectare.

2.1.3 Town Planning
         The site is within the Noosa Shire and subject to the Noosa Plan 2020. The zoning map, forming
         part of the Noosa Plan, designates part of the land within the Recreation and Open Space zone
         and the balance in the Tourist Accommodation zone. Adamson Town Planning Pty Ltd has been
         consulted during the planning stages and a Town Planning Report has been provided to address
         the relevant development planning and approval issues.

2.2 Physical
2.2.1 Topography and geotechnical
         The proposed hotel site is located on the western slopes of a high sand dune that extends along
         the eastern side of the Noosa Springs property. The slope of the ridgeline varies across the site.
         The site comprises predominately uncontaminated sand. A geotechnical assessment will be
         undertaken in due course, but acid sulphate soil is not expected to be an issue because of its
         elevation and conditions of nearby developed areas.

2.2.2 Orientation and prevailing winds
         The site is located on the western slopes of the ridge that generally slopes to the West. Having
         regard to its elevation, the proposed hotel buildings overlook the existing clubhouse, spa and
         car parks. The higher levels of the site are mainly exposed to prevailing winds from South-East
         and sometimes to winds from the North and West.

2.2.3 Access
         The main vehicular and pedestrian access to the Noosa Springs recreation complex is through a
         gated entrance at the southern end of Links Drive. Access for deliveries and refuse collection
         vehicles is via a driveway located to the south of the clubhouse that connects to Resort Drive.
         Pedestrians and motorised golf cart access is also available at the rear entrance. An existing
         driveway links the rear of the clubhouse to an existing levelled area adjacent to the existing
         tennis centre where the proposed hotel site is located.

2.2.4 Adjacent Uses
         Related uses are near the proposed hotel site and include:
