RG Strategic has lodged a development application for Unit 1, 8 Venture Drive.
The application is to seek approval for a Development Permit for a Material Change of Use for an Indoor Sport and Recreation use.
The project’s proponents, KX Pilates, plan to convert the existing retail space into a new pilates studio.
As the site is included in a Medium Impact Industry Zone and the Venture Drive Enterprise Precinct, the proposed change triggered a Code Assessment.
The proposed use will be within the existing building within the Venture Drive Enterprise Precinct of the Noosaville Industrial Estate. The existing building is intended to remain unchanged with the exception of a minor internal reconfiguration. The proposed pilates studio will comprise:
- 46m² of reception area,
- 96m² of pilates reformer area, including 14 x reformer beds, and
- 64m² of amenities, storage and office area.
The existing paints retail space will be converted into a reformer pilates studio
RG Strategic prepared the application and required responses to the Code Assessment to help ensure a positive outcome for KX Pilates.
Our report covered:
- Proposed development intent;
- Description of the characteristics of site and surrounds;
- Proposed development details;
- An assessment of the proposal against the State planning interests;
- An assessment of the proposal against the Noosa Plan 2020; and
- A conclusion that summarises the grounds which support the proposed development.
Only minimal changes internally are required for the pilates studio, with the exterior remaining untouched with the exception of some signage updates and application
KX Pilates’ expansion into Noosaville brings the New Zealand and Australian brand to health-conscious consumers on the Sunshine Coast.
Russell is an absolute master of all things Noosa. To understand the in's and out's of the system such as he does, takes years of time in the game and Russell has it in spades. Do not hesitate to ask for his help. Thanks a lot Rus!

Russell and the team at RG Strategic were amazing throughout our whole Development Application with council. To be honest, I don't think we would have even made the move to our new premises with how daunting a Material Change of Use Application is. We are experts in human movement, not this stuff, so we are super grateful these guys made the process seamless and also speedy! Council told us a 3-5 month application process and these guys got it in right on the 3 month mark for us! Thanks for your patience and professionalism guys! We appreciate it more than words can say.

Russell and his team were fantastic with our application. They knew the processes and protocols from start to finish. When a hurdle arose, Russell stepped us through the procedures required one by one. We can't thank Russell enough for his professional and personal approach to our application.
