         and industry precinct, Hofmann Drive business and industry precinct, Kin Kin business and industry precinct, Lionel
         Donovan Drive auto precinct and the Gateway West makers precinct) as identified on the zoning maps contained

6.5.1.2 Purpose and overall outcomes
   Purpose and overall outcomes
   (1)    The purpose of the Low Impact Industry zone is to provide for—
         (a)    service industry and low impact industry; and
         (b)    other uses and activities that—
                (i)    support industry activities; and
                (ii)   do not compromise the future use of premises for industry activities.

   (2)   The overall outcomes sought for the Low Impact industry zone are as follows: ­
         (a)    development facilitates the efficient use of land for small scale and low impacting industry activities and
                supporting ancillary uses;
         (b)    incompatible uses, or uses which are more appropriately accommodated in other zones are avoided to protect
                land for low impact industry activities and to ensure the continued efficient operation and viability of existing and
                future industry activities;
         (c)    development avoids and mitigates impacts such as noise, odour, dust and other waste on the surrounding area
                and adverse impacts on the natural environment;
         (d)    development does not compromise the function and viability of business centres or the Noosa Shire centres
                hierarchy;
         (e)    new uses are located, designed and managed to be compatible with surrounding uses and development;
         (f)    retail sales more appropriately located in business centres, such as shops and showrooms are avoided;
         (g)    small scale sales and administrative uses are ancillary to, and have a direct relationship with, the industry
                activity on site;
         (h)    food and drink sales are small scale and occur only where directly ancillary to and associated with a bonafide
                industry activity on­site, are limited in scale and extent, and do not locate on land fronting Taylor Court, Cooroy;
         (i)    entertainment activities are limited to theatres in the form of film making studios or recording studios;
         (j)    offices are trade related only and do not compromise or compete with the Noosa Shire Centres Hierarchy;
         (k)    warehouses for self­storage facilities are avoided to protect industrial land from underutilisation and do not front
                Taylor Court, Cooroy;
         (l)    caretaker's accommodation:
                (i)     occurs only where directly associated with a large scale industrial activity and there is a demonstrated
                       ongoing operational need for full­time caretaking;
