5.3.3 Eastern Beaches Locality

The site is located within the Sunrise Beach area of the Eastern Beaches Locality.
According to The Noosa Plan, the area is “attractive to families and permanent
residents, with relatively easy access to the beach, local shopping services, the
schools in Ben Lexcen Drive and higher order services available in Noosa Heads.
Sunrise Beach provides housing and unit accommodation, though in the east,
proximity to the David Low Way and generally lower vegetation forms means that
development is more exposed.

Sunrise Beach has a high proportion of detached housing, as compared to Sunshine
Beach, and that housing is characterised by a mix of lightweight and masonry
construction, featuring a greater proportion of low set brick and tile homes in lower
areas and large masonry homes on the ridges with ocean and/or lowland views.
Closely spaced three storey unit developments are located along the beachside,
nodes of duplex style dwellings are set on the slopes of the dunes west of David Low
Way, while gated enclaves of attached housing are present in the north-western
areas.

The site is subject to the following planning scheme overlays:

e Biodiversity Overlay (Map OM4.1)
e Natural Hazard: Bushfire & Acid Sulfate Soils Overlay (Map OM4.4)

The proposal has been assessed against the relevant overlay codes. (Refer to -
Appendix C - Codes)
