 Boreen Point
         (p)      For development in Boreen Point:
                  (i)       Boreen Point remains a small, secluded, lakeside village with a casual and leisurely atmosphere focused on water
                            activities which attracts visitors and tourists to the area in holiday periods. As well as being home to a community
                            that appreciates the lifestyle it affords it serves as a popular visitor destination and a gateway to the scenic
                            wilderness of the upper Noosa River.
                  (ii)      The sense of arrival gained from the western end of Laguna Street is protected with retention of existing vegetation
                            and additional street trees and landscaping used to buffer development and enhance the natural avenue effect.
                  (iii)     The foreshore character with extensive open spaces and significant views and vistas to and across Lake
                            Cootharaba, is preserved as is the native vegetation along the foreshore, particularly Melaleucas and Eucalypts
                            which shade the area.
                  (iv)      Development maintains the historical small lot pattern on the peninsula that take advantage of views across Lake
                            Cootharaba and the corresponding small dwellings that sit lightly on the lot using suspended floors or step down
                            slopes, with space between buildings for trees and outdoor living.
                  (v)       Development maintains the area further to the west, between Hector Street and Lake Flat Road, for larger lots to
                            serve as a transition from the open rural landscape to the village.
                  (vi)      Development respects the mix of traditional and contemporary small scale, sub­tropical building design and
                            responds to the specific site conditions, informal streetscaping and low levels of infrastructure and services.
                  (vii)     Important local landmark buildings that contribute to the character and identity of the village including the Apollonian
                            Hotel and original guesthouse are retained within their setting, not overwhelmed by the proximity, scale, orientation
                            or design of adjoining development.
                  (viii)    Boreen Point has a low level of commercialisation and development maintains its local centre role servicing the
                            immediate convenience needs of residents and visitors. Higher order needs are met by larger centres including
                            Tewantin and Pomona.
                  (ix)      The water quality of Lake Cootharaba and the environment in general is protected from adverse effects of on­site
                            effluent disposal as a result of development.
