2020-07-16 SM Agenda - Item 1 - Attachment 4 - Final Noosa Plan 2020 Part 7

               circulation road system, creation of an open aired activated village green space for significant community gatherings and
               the provision of land for a sub­regional transit centre that has the potential to function as an integrated public transport
               node, with pedestrian and bicycle paths linking with nearby urban areas. The further development of the transit facility will
               be subject to further investigation and planning with the State Government;
        (i)    In the vicinity of Gibson Road and Mary Street, the District centre zone provides a range of business, entertainment and
               community activities to service the needs of residents and visitors in a form and scale that does not detract from the role
               and function of the Noosa Business Centre.
        (j)    Development in the District centre zone provides improved streetscape and landscape treatments, active street frontages
               and improved public spaces and residential development above street level.
        (k)    Development at the edges of the District centre zone is less intensive with a lifestyle or health and wellbeing focus,
               providing a transition to adjoining residential areas. These transitional uses also include offices which do not generate
               large volumes of traffic or early morning / late evening noise.
        (l)    Residential development in the District Centre zone occurs in the form of small dwellings in conjunction with a non­
               residential use.
        (m)    Development in the Neighbourhood centre zone is a focal point for surrounding residential neighbourhoods and provides
               lower order goods and services to support the day­to­day needs of residents and visitors.
        (n)    Health and medical facilities develop in the Noosa Business Centre, the Community Facilities zone in Goodchap Street and
               the Mary – Thomas Street Health and Wellbeing Precinct.
        (o)    Development in the Low impact industry zone and the Medium impact industry zone accommodates a broad range of
               industry and business uses, avoiding negative impacts on the amenity of nearby residential areas.
        (p)    Activities in industry zones provide important services and products to the community and provide a range of employment
               types.
        (q)    Development fronting Eumundi­Noosa Road, Eenie Creek Road and Walter Hay Drive provides high quality buildings,
               landscaping and integrated signage that improves the visual appearance of these roads as entrances to Noosaville.
        (r)    Development in the Low Density Housing zone primarily accommodates permanent residents in detached dwelling
               houses.
        (s)    Development in the Medium Density and High Density Housing zones accommodates a greater diversity in housing types
               including dual occupancies, multiple dwellings, retirement facilities and residential care facilities.
        (t)    Development ensures permanent residents of Noosaville enjoy high levels of residential amenity and accessibility to urban
               services and recreational opportunities.
        (u)    Retirement living is established in Lake Weyba Drive and Walter Hay Drive (north).
        (v)    Development for home based businesses including bed and breakfast accommodation may locate in residential zones.
        (w)    New residential development in or adjacent to activity centres includes a high proportion of small dwellings.
        (x)    Development in the Community facilities zone provides facilities and services that support the Noosaville community as
               well as the broader Shire, including Noosa Hospital, educational facilities, library, airport and other local services.
        (y)    Development in the Tourist accommodation zone is for visitor accommodation and associated uses that serve visitors to
               preserve and support the role of Noosaville as a tourism focus area.
        (z)    Development in the Tourist Accommodation zone reinforces Gympie Terrace as the primary tourism focus for Noosaville
               with vibrant and pedestrian friendly active street frontages providing a range of small­scale boutique retail and outdoor
               dining experiences amongst visitor accommodation.
        (aa)   Development in the Tourist Accommodation zone on Gympie Terrace provides a range of well­designed entertainment and
               catering activities which may operate late at night and include live music which creates a vibrant atmosphere.
        (ab)   Strong visual and pedestrian linkages to the Noosa River foreshore and surrounding areas are protected.
        (ac)   Noosa River foreshore adjacent to Gympie Terrace is retained as an important recreational space for the local community
               and visitors. Development or operational works maintains it as an idyllic place for passive recreation, walking, dog exercise
               and access to the Noosa River including ferry stops.
        (ad)   Existing businesses on Noosa River foreshore operate only from commercial jetty lease areas providing watercraft for hire,
               tour services and limited ancillary offerings to the community. Slipway services are maintained within the life of any current
               lease.
        (ae)   Development is supported by a network of open space and pathway connections to meet the needs of the local community
               and facilitates safe and convenient pedestrian and cycle connections between key destinations within the local plan area.
               Noosa River foreshore is maintained as an important pedestrian, cycle and open space link from Lake Doonella to Munna
               Point.
