Questions for Arcare on aged-care facility

The Arcare Aged Care Development in Goodchap St, Noosaville, is nearing completion and I believe it will create major parking and traffic problems.

Arcare's aged-care facility in Noosaville as construction progressed earlier this year.

I WRITE to question the Arcare Aged Care Development in Goodchap St, Noosaville.

The 90-bed facility is nearing completion and I believe it will create major parking and traffic problems.

I think it is in the wrong area.

The hospital roundabout will be chaotic because there is already insufficient parking for this growing facility.

The aged care site was zoned residential and the development was outside the Town Plan. There were 108 submissions to council: 98 were objections.

The 52 car spaces are meant to cater for about 178 workers and visitors.

Other more suitable medical offices were rejected so why was this development approved?

Thankfully, they can’t blame the new mayor.
