accommodation (refer to Figure 6 to 8) or includes properties which have a development approval
which provides for the dwelling to be used interchangeably for permanent or short term
accommodation.
The proposal for an additional short-term accommodation within the Medium Density Neighbourhood
that is already predominantly characterised by short term accommodation does not comply with the
Purpose and Overall Outcome (a) of the Medium Density Residential Zone Code. In addition, as the
proposal is for the use to establish within new dwellings, it does not comply with the Purpose and
Overall Outcome (h) of the Medium Density Residential Zone Code, which seeks to ensure Short-
term visitor accommodation is predominately provided through well-established resorts and
holiday units.
The proposal does not comply with the Purpose and Overall Outcome (2)(t) and Performance
Outcome PO21 of the Noosaville Local Plan Code, as while the Code seeks to maintain Noosaville’s
role for visitors, it does not seek to increase visitor accommodation in the area and increasing visitor
accommodation in the area is likely to further impact on the amenity of permanent residents in the
area.
The proposal is also not consistent with Purpose and Overall Outcomes (1) and (2)(f) of the Visitor
Accommodation Code, as the proposed visitor accommodation is not appropriately located and will
detract from permanent residents amenity. There is also no need for additional visitor
accommodation in the area, as the extent of visitor accommodation does not integrate well with
permanents in the area and dominates the area.
Figure 6 includes existing resort style accommodation located within proximity to the subject site.
