              Noosa Business Centre.
        (c)   Development services the needs of the community and visitors and includes shopping centres and full­line supermarkets
              (where there is a demonstrated need), specialty retail, commercial, residential, office, personal services, health, community
              and small­scale entertainment and recreation uses compatible with the centre’s role and function.
        (d)   Development contributes to the economic activity and vibrancy of the business centre.
        (e)   Residential uses occur in conjunction with a non­residential use in a mixed­use format and support the predominant
              business function of the zone.
        (f)   Development integrates with the low rise landscaped character, built form and layout of the centre and creates a pleasant
              community feel.
        (g)   Development has a high level of architectural merit and contributes positively to the activation of the street and the character
              of the centre.
        (h)   Development reinforces the traditional ‘main street’ character and scale of development in the centre.
        (i)   Development facilitates the creation of vibrant and safe business centres, with attractive and functional buildings and
              streets with integrated high amenity public spaces.

              casual surveillance.
        (k)   Entertainment activities contribute to the economic activity and vibrancy of the business centre both day and night.
        (l)   Development gives priority to improved accessibility for walking and cycling.
        (m)   Buildings are designed and operated to avoid adverse impacts on the amenity of surrounding residential development
              associated with noise, lighting, waste, fumes, odours, overlooking public health and safety.
        (n)   Buildings are designed and sited to sensitively respond to the physical characteristics and constraints of land, including
              coastal inundation, flooding, landslide hazard and bushfire hazard, where applicable.
        (o)   Development is supported by appropriate infrastructure and essential services, is consolidated, and maximises the
              efficient use of existing infrastructure.
        (p)   Development does not compromise the future provision of planned infrastructure.
        (q)   Development provides high levels of sub­tropical and sustainable design including excellence in energy efficiency and
              water conservation and is resilient to the impacts of climate change.
