KHA DEVELOPMENT MANAGERS – 15180                                                                    December 2015



The only centre location that could possibly accommodate a purpose built health care centre as proposed
is the Shire Business Centre. However as discussed in the Economic Needs Analysis, the Shire Business
Centre is detached from the Noosa Private Hospital, and therefore does not offer the level of convenience
or accessibility for patients nor the potential for the consolidation of health care facilities for Noosa Shire as
that afforded by the subject site. The Shire Business Centre does not provide the opportunity to create a
medical hub that results from the proposals co-location with the Noosa Hospital.

Accordingly there are sufficient planning grounds in the community interest to justify the proposals conflict
with specific outcomes 11, 28, 29 & 33 of the Noosaville Locality Code in accordance with Statutory
Guideline 05/09 and sections 326(1)(b) or 329(1)(b) of the Sustainable Planning Act 2009.
