          sufficient grounds for support. Therefore, defending refusal decisions in appeal can place

          the delivery of services to the community.

       • The economic impact of the possible reduction in tourism beds on the whole of Noosa Shire
          economy and that effect on local businesses directly, and/or indirectly related to tourism.

No social impact study of the change in refusing Short-term Accommodation was undertaken to
inform the planning scheme. This proposal provides Short-term Accommodation in the same format
as the surrounding and existing built form and will contribute to the established amenity of the
hinterland.
