2.1.           UNDEFINED LAND USE DEFINITION
The following details the changes to the sub-set of uses included in the ‘Undefined Use’ definition.
Deletions are noted in red strike through format, with additions in blue.
As explained in the Information Request response (IR response), the proposal seeks a tailored
approach to land uses with bespoke use definitions that more appropriately describe the development.
This approach acknowledges that that the planning scheme defined uses / use types could result in
uses operating in an inappropriate or inconsistent manner or interpreted to be operating unlawfully.

The proposed undefined land use recognises that the retail experience is evolving, responding to
changing consumer preferences and expectations. This includes more hybrid retailers that sell both
bulky goods and smaller items in large shop / superstore or outlet store formats, and thus the
predominant ‘retail showroom‘ use definition is retained without amendment.

The revised Undefined Use definition is outlined below:
‘Undefined Use – Noosa Marketplace’ meaning an integrated mixed-use precinct for a range of uses
comprising:

       •   Retail Showroom – premises not less than 300m2 per tenancy used for the display and sale of
           large or bulky goods, or large stocks of similar goods or related goods;
       •   Shop – premises less than 300m2 per tenancy used for displaying, selling or hiring goods
           other than supermarket, department store or discount department store;
       •   Office – premises, limited to buildings’ 1 and 4, used for:
                a) providing an administrative, financial, management or secretarial service or function;
                    or
                b) the practice of a profession; or
