                     4.3 Multiple Housing
                     Multiple housing7 is defined in the Noosa Plan and means “the use of
                     premises for two or more dwelling units or accommodation units as the case
                     may be, occupied by permanent or semi-permanent residents, where the
                     occupants may share common facilities on the site. The term includes Duplex,
                     Type 3 Retirement and special needs, Type 4 Conventional, and Type 5
                     Relocatable.

                     Under 7.39 O74 of the Noosa Plan, Multiple Housing is specifically listed
                     as an inconsistent use as is a Detached House. It is an Inconsistent use
                     “because the use is strongly inappropriate in the relevant zones because it is
                     incompatible with other uses generally expected in that zone.”

                     By definition Multiple housing can be occupied “by permanent or semi-
                     permanent residents” which conflicts with the Specific Outcomes and
                     Probable Solutions for the Open Space Recreation Zone.

                     The built form of Multiple Housing is not designed and sited to—
                           a) encourage the co-locating of a range of open space uses;
                           b) be attractive, comfortable and accessible to the public; and
                           c) provide suitable landscape treatment, seating, lighting and other
                           amenities conducive to community interaction and convenience and
                           public safety.

                     This is another Inconsistent Use.8

                     Adams and Sparkes, Town Planning & Development Consultancy, who
                     submitted the DA on behalf of the developer, at page 17 para 34 states:

                               The intent of this is for all detached Multiple Housing Units to operate
                               as Detached Houses, with each unit to be included on standard format
                               lots within a community title scheme.

                     Table 7.16 refers to Inconsistent Uses and states:
                           “The following defined uses and use classes are inconsistent uses and
                           are not located in the Semi-Attached Housing Zone-
                                  n) Multiple Housing Type 4 on sites less than 800m2”

                     Building another ‘permanent housing estate’ on this land will not provide for
                     the growing need of the local community. Peregian Beach is already being
                     surrounded by new small lot housing developments that lack public amenity
                     and open space.

                     The proposed private road of tightly spaced concrete driveways and garage
                     door frontages would produce a most uncomfortable pedestrian thoroughfare
                     between the IGA supermarket & Rufous Street. The appearance would not be
