This code applies to assessable development:-

1) within the District centre zone as identified on the zoning maps contained within Schedule 2 (Mapping); and

6.4.2.2 Purpose and overall outcomes
1) The purpose of the District centre zone is to provide for a large variety of uses and activities to serve a district of the Noosa Shire,
   including, for example, administrative, business, community, cultural, entertainment, professional, residential or retail uses or
   activities.
2) The purpose of the District centre zone will be achieved by the following overall outcomes:

   a) Development supports the Noosa Shire Centres Hierarchy by providing a mix and range of goods and services and employment
      appropriate to the centre role and function and district catchment.
   b) Development complements and does not undermine, the role and function of the major centres of Noosa Junction and the
      Noosa Business Centre.
   c) Development services the needs of the community and visitors and includes shopping centres and full-line supermarkets (where
      there is a demonstrated need), specialty retail, commercial, residential, office, personal services, health, community and small-
      scale 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 non-residential use in a mixed-use 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.
