         the Planning Scheme:
         1.    Gyms (fitness centres) are generally floor area intensive and require tenancies that
               are most readily found in the Industrial Zone;
         2.    Some sport and recreational uses are accepted in the Industry zone given the
               limited potential impacts of sport and recreation uses; and
         3.    The fitness centre is of a similar size and scale to other approved Entertainment &
               Dining Business’s Type 2 within the Noosaville Industrial area.
