the Noosa Plan 2020.

The following codes are applicable:
   - Medium Density Residential Zone Code
   - Low Density Housing Code
   - Biodiversity, Waterways and Wetlands Overlay Code
   - Flood Overlay Code


4.2 OVERLAYS

The subject site is burdened by the following overlays, as identified by the overlay maps of
the Noosa Planning Scheme:
   -    Biodiversity, Waterways and Wetlands Overlay
           o     Riparian Buffer Area

6.3.2 Medium Density Residential Zone Code

 

6.3.2.1 Application

This code applies to:-

(a) assessable development on land within the Medium density residential zone as identified on the zoning maps contained within
Schedule 2 (Mapping); and

(b) | acceptable development subject to requirements and identified as requiring assessment against the Medium density residential
zone code by the tables of assessment in Part 5 (Tables of assessment).

6.3.2.2 Purpose and overall outcomes

(1) The purpose of the Medium density residential zone is to provide for:-

(a) medium density multiple dwellings; and

(b) | community uses, and small-scale services, facilities and infrastructure, to support local residents
(2) | The overall outcomes sought for the Medium density residential zone are as follows:-

(a) Medium density residential neighbourhoods are predominantly home to permanent residents.

(b) The character of medium density residential neighbourhoods varies due to factors such as proximity to beaches, the Noosa
River, recreation spaces, centres, topography, availability of views, the established vegetated character, the presence of
visitor accommodation and the age of development.

) Development makes a positive contribution to the look and feel of residential neighbourhoods by maintaining a low scale
character with well designed buildings and landscaping that enhance the streetscape.

S

(d) New uses are located, designed and managed to be compatible with surrounding uses.

) The intrusion of incompatible uses, or uses which are more appropriately accommodated in other zones is avoided to
protect land for dual occupancies, community residences, rooming accommodation, multiple dwellings, retirement and
relocatable home park facilities.

s

(f) Development caters for both the current and projected demographic and socio-economic profile of the area, including one
and two-person households, households on low to moderate incomes and residents with reduced mobility.

(g) | Small dwellings and co-housing models are integrated within the medium density residential built form to increase
housing choice.

Ss

Short-term visitor accommodation is predominately provided through well-established resorts and holiday units
Wi Home-based businesses provide for domestic workplaces and home-hosted guest accommodation of a scale and
intensity compatible with attached and semi-attached living and the residential character and amenity of the surrounding

area and locality.

i) Development maintains a high level of residential amenity having regard to traffic, noise, dust, odour, lighting and other
locally specific impacts

(k) | Development provides for an efficient pattern of land use and infrastructure that creates walkable and legible residential
neighbourhoods that integrate with active transport networks and are well connected to activity centres, employment nodes,
open space and recreational areas, community facilities and educational opportunities.

(I) Development is supported by appropriate infrastructure and essential services and does not adversely impact on the
continued operation, viability and maintenance of existing infrastructure or compromise future provision of planned
infrastructure.

(m) Development responds to land constraints including topography, bushfire and flood.

(n) Natural features such as creeks, gullies, waterways, wetlands, vegetation and bushland are retained and protected from
the impacts of development. Any unavoidable impacts are minimised through location, design, operation and management
requirements.

(0) _ Native vegetation between buildings and in the public realm enhances the amenity and supports local wildlife.

Low Density Housing Code
Application

against the Low Density Housing code by the tables of assessment in Part 5 (Tables of assessment).

Purpose and overall outcomes

(1) | The purpose of the Low density housing code is to ensure dwelling houses, community residences, rooming
accommodation and short term accommodation (where no more than one detached dwelling on the site) :

(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)

are appropriately located;
achieve a high level of comfort and amenity for occupants;
maintain amenity and privacy of neighbouring residential premises; and

are compatible with the character and streetscape of the local area.

(2) The overall outcomes sought for the Low density residential code are:

Development incorporates a high standard of design and makes a positive contribution to the streetscape character of the
area in which it is located.

Development is sited and designed to protect the amenity and privacy of neighbouring premises

Development provides a high level of safety, security and amenity for residents.

Development is provided with an acceptable level of infrastructure and services.

Where not in a sewerage service area, effluent disposal systems are designed and sited to avoid adverse effects on the
environment.

Driveways and crossovers provide safe and reasonable vehicle access from the carriageway to the property boundary,
minimise adverse effects on Council's infrastructure and ensure safety for all users of the footpath.

Community residences in the Low density residential zone are of a domestic scale with traffic levels which do not
unreasonably affect the residential amenity of neighbours.

Secondary dwellings are small scale, subordinate to the dwelling and provide housing choice and amenity for the
occupants.

Rooming accommodation in the Low density residential zone is of domestic scale and provides housing choice to meet the
varying needs of the community.

Buildings relocated from other sites do not pose a health or safety risk or adversely affect the amenity of their
neighbourhood or existing infrastructure.

Development maintains the natural landscape character and visual quality of hillslopes and ridgelines and avoids adverse
impacts on the environmental values of the land.
