      This code applies to assessable development:
      (a)   within the Noosaville local plan area as shown on Map ZM-12 - Noosaville contained within Schedule 2 (Mapping); and

7.2.4.2                       Purpose and Overall Outcomes

Noosaville
(1)   The purpose of the Noosaville local plan code is to provide locally relevant planning provisions for the assessment of development within the Noosaville local plan
      area.
(2)   The following overall outcomes apply to the Noosaville local plan area:
      (a) The Noosaville local plan area is a vibrant urban setting defined by watercourses and bushland edges including the Noosa River, Eenie Creek, Lake Weyba,
            Noosa National Park and Tewantin National Park.
      (b) Development within the Noosaville local plan area is limited to land within the urban boundary so as to protect and reinforce the character and identity of
            Noosaville, provide for the efficient provision of infrastructure and services, avoid constrained land and protect the surrounding significant environmental areas.
      (c) Development in the local plan area is sited and designed to retain the key natural environment, landscape and built form elements, including significant views
            and vistas to external elements that contribute to the setting, character and identity of the Noosaville local plan area including:
            (i)    the Noosa River, its foreshore parkland and riparian qualities;
            (ii) native vegetation, particularly adjoining watercourses;
            (iii) Keyser Island and Weyba Creek Conservation Parks;
            (iv) Lake Doonella;
            (v) Weyba Creek;
            (vi) Wallace Park;
            (vii) Lake Doonella Bushland Reserve;
            (viii) Noosa National Park, Noosa Headlands, the secondary dune system, Lake Weyba and Noosa North Shore.
      (d) Development recognises and reinforces the waterfront location and character of the local plan area by providing high quality, low rise, sub-tropical buildings
            and landscape design that promote the casual, outdoor lifestyle. Buildings have a strong relationship with the outdoors through the incorporation of natural
            materials, verandahs and glazing.
      (e) Development design and siting responds to the relatively flat topography of Noosaville by creating visual interest and differentiation in built form through design
            and the application of:
