 PURPOSE & OVERALL OUTCOMES                                                PROPOSAL   COMPLIANCE
      (g) Development recognises the importance of the vegetated
          backdrop and does not compromise the role of the dune
          and waterway systems in defining landforms between the
          communities.
      (h) Development recognises and reinforces the close
          relationship between the natural character of the area and
          its attractiveness to residents and visitors. In this context,
          development is subservient to the natural landscape, sits
          lightly within the landscape, sensitively responds to the
          topography of the area and provides densely landscaped
          settings,       with        existing       mature       trees
          and vegetation retained wherever possible.
      (i) Development protects vegetated views from David Low
          Way and the beach by restricting the extent of clearing for
          structures, services and access, limiting the vertical and
          horizontal scale of development and incorporating
          existing and new vegetation that frames or filters views.
      (j) Activity centres at Sunshine Beach, Sunrise Beach and
          Peregian Beach provide for the convenience needs of
          residents, as well as visitors within the local community.
      (k) Whilst opportunities exist for the expansion or
          enhancement of business functions in both Sunrise Beach
          Neighbourhood Centre and Peregian Beach Local Centre,
          residents continue to rely on larger centres in Noosa
          Heads and Noosaville and/or centres outside Noosa Shire
          to fulfil their higher order business, community and
          industry needs.
      (l) Development in the Local centre zone at Peregian Beach
          retains and enhances the built form and streetscape
          character of the centre and promotes activity and vitality
          through the provision of active street frontages and
          strong pedestrian connections between private
          development and adjacent public spaces.
