Demonstrated above, the proposal triggers multiple non-compliances with the Specific
Outcomes of the Noosa Heads Locality Code. As directed by the Planning Act 2016, the
proposal will need to demonstrate compliance with the Overall Outcomes of the Noosa Heads
Locality Code. Please see outlined below the various non-compliances with the Overall

Outcomes of the Noosa Heads Locality Code.

Division 14—Overall Outcomes for the Noosa Heads Locality

 

| OVERALL OUTCOMES

COMMENT

 

g) Noosa Hill is maintained as the predominant landscape
feature of the locality forming the skyline and backdrop
for much of the residential and visitor neighbourhoods;

Non-Compliant

The proposal proposes significant vegetation
clearing of the Noosa Hill, majority of which is
zoned Open Space Conservation specifically to
facilitate the overall intent of the Noosa Heads
Locality Code as a strong held desired outcome.

 

e) Land having environmental and cultural heritage
values is protected and maintained for future
generations, including—

i. Noosa National Park and Keyser Island and Weyba
Creek conservation parks;

ii. the vegetated hills that frame Noosa Heads, Laguna
Bay, Noosa Inlet and Hastings Street;

iii. Noosa Spit, Noosa Woods, the beaches and
foredunes;

iv. foreshore areas along Noosa River, Lake Weyba,
Weyba Creek and their associated riparian communities;
v. Lions Park and Weyba Park; vi. the koala corridor
between the various parts of the Noosa National Park and
vegetation stands around Lake Weyba;

vii. vegetated drainage lines through residential estates;
viii. private land with native vegetation communities; and
ix. heathland areas of Girraween Estate;

 

 

Non-Compliant

The Overall Intent of the Noosa Heads Locality
Code has specifically identified the vegetated
hills that frame Noosa Heads as containing
environmental values desired to be protected.
Again, this has given justification for Council
zoning of the site as Open Space Conservation
designed to achieve the desired intent of the
Noosa Heads Locality Code.
