This development has merit, it should certainly be an improvement on the previous ageing motel.
However, I am concerned that modern, concrete, boxes with glass fronts and little shading will be planned with additional heat producing bitumen carparking.
Modern buildings are often black, the worst colour for a Qld summer could not be used.
These would be out of keeping with the local character of Cooroy.
The other businesses on Diamond Street have retained the weather board character and several are planted with trees and shrubs. The Opal Street side still has its green verge and trees. I hope these are retained.
As our summers are getting hotter, it is very important to retain as much greenery and shading as possible.
Grassed areas are up to 20 degrees cooler than bitumen and paving.
thank you for your consideration.
