               Detailed odour assessment was not done at the time. Notwithstanding, the proposed resort is

               consistent with the higher order planning outcomes sought under the Noosa Plan’s Strategic
               Framework, the Noosa Plan 2020 specifically sought the development of tourist accommodation
               in this part of Noosa Springs by introducing the Tourist Accommodation Zone. At that time the need
               for visitor accommodation within Noosa Springs was recognised, primarily on the basis of how the
               broader site was being developed with limited visitor accommodation having been provided.
               Accordingly, the draft scheme was amended to include the new Tourist Accommodation Zone
               and for that area to be within the Urban Boundary. The extent of gross floor area, inclusive of the
               proposed resort and the existing buildings on site, is less than what is permitted within the
               existing mapped Tourist Accommodation Zone area. A total gross floor area of 10,208m2 is
               proposed, the Noosa Plan 2020 permits up to 15,240m2 of gross floor area in the Tourist
               Accommodation Zone. In this regard, the scale of development is consistent with the extent of
               development anticipated to be developed within the existing Urban Boundary. It is anticipated
               that both the zoning and the extent of the Urban Boundary would be amended in the future
               should the application be approved.
               The proposed Food and Drink Outlet is ancillary to the Resort Complex and will primarily be used
               by guests of the hotel. The Noosa Plan’s definition of a Resort Complex includes integrated leisure
               activities (….bars, meeting and function facilities, restaurants, sporting and fitness facilities). The
               inclusion of these land uses within the Resort Complex is consistent with the anticipated uses
