3.0             Overlay Codes
3.1             Coastal protection and scenic amenity overlay code
 (1)   The purpose of the Coastal Protection and Scenic Amenity overlay code is to:
         a. maintain coastal processes including erosion and accretion processes to enable these natural functions to continue;
         b. maintain the protective function of coastal resources including vegetation and dunes to mitigate risks associated with coastal erosion; and
         c. ensure development is designed and sited to protect the natural beach experience and scenic amenity of the coastal area enjoyed by Noosa Shire
             residents and visitors.
