Details of the decision are as follows:
application details
Application No:	MCU14/0106 & OPW15/0001
Street Address:	Noosa Civic 28 Eenie Creek Road Noosaville  Qld  4566
Real Property Description:	Lot 3 SP 246584
Planning Scheme:	The Noosa Plan (16 September 2013)
Type of Development
The application sought the following type of development approval:
Development Permit for Material Change of Use of Premises for a major shopping centre expansion comprising:
Commercial Business - Type 1 Office
Commercial Business - Type 2 Medical
Commercial Business - Type 3 Veterinary
Entertainment & Dining Business - Type 1 Food & beverages
Entertainment & Dining Business - Type 2  Recreation, amusement & fitness
Entertainment & Dining Business - Type 3 Bar

Retail Business - Type 2 Shop & Salon
Retail Business - Type 4 Showroom
Retail Business - Type 7 Garden & Lifestyle Centre
Wellbeing - Type 2 Social
Service & Utility - Type 2 Installation
Undefined Use - Temporary Markets
AND

Development Permit for Operational Work for:

•	Interference with vegetation
•	Interfering with quarry material on State coastal land above high water mark within a Coastal Management District.
Reasons for Refusal
The development conflicts with the South East Queensland Regional Plan’s Desired Regional Outcome for employment because it will not diversify Noosa’s economy and sterilises land to be retained for long-term non-retail opportunities.
The development fundamentally conflicts with The Noosa Plan’s intent for the site to provide for long-term non-retail employment growth and diversification.
The development will have undesirable economic impacts on existing commercial centres.
The applicant has not demonstrated an economic need for additional retail development in the Shire Business Centre.
The development will have unacceptable impacts on traffic safety and traffic operations on Noosa’s road network.
The development will necessitate expensive and disruptive traffic signals at two or more critical intersections within the network, which, without the subject development, can operate satisfactorily until well beyond 2026 with only minor upgrades to the existing roundabout-based system.  Introduction of new signalised intersections to the local road network is contrary to Noosa’s desired low-key network character and planning intent and is not acceptable.
The development is not consistent with the assumptions stated in Noosa’s Local Government Infrastructure Plan for future development of the Noosa Business Centre.  The applicant’s proposed contributions toward intersection upgrades do not satisfactorily address the development’s likely traffic impacts and any additional costs of upgrading the traffic network should be to the development and not the community.
The development will not provide sufficient on-site parking to accommodate design peak parking demands reasonably expected to be generated and will have adverse impact on the convenience of use of the Noosa Business Centre.
The development is likely to compromise the future development of a bus interchange critical to the future management of traffic and transport demands for the entire Business Centre.
The applicant has not demonstrated sufficient grounds exist to overcome the development’s statutory planning conflicts.
