      v) Weyba Creek;
      vi) Wallace Park;
      vii) Lake Doonella Bushland Reserve;
      viii) Noosa National Park, Noosa Headlands, the secondary dune system, Lake Weyba and Noosa North Shore.
   d) Development recognises and reinforces the waterfront location and character of the local plan area by providing high quality,
      low rise, sub-tropical buildings and landscape design that promote the casual, outdoor lifestyle. Buildings have a strong
      relationship with the outdoors through the incorporation of natural materials, verandahs and glazing.
   e) Development design and siting responds to the relatively flat topography of Noosaville by creating visual interest and
      differentiation in built form through design and the application of:
      i) a range of textures, colours, styles and finishes;
      ii) a range of architectural elements within the context of a sub-tropical architectural theme;
      iii) varied roof heights, that cumulatively make a positive contribution to an interesting skyline;
      iv) varied setbacks which create opportunities for both landscaping and design variety; and
      v) retention of mature trees and the provision of new landscaping which create attractive spaces between buildings.
   f) The Noosaville local plan area maintains its roles for both the provision of much of the commercial, retail, administrative,
      industrial and social needs of the coastal urban portion of Noosa Shire and as a major focus area for visitor accommodation and
      services.
   g) The Noosa Business Centre off Eenie Creek Road is a Major regional activity centre identified in the South East Queensland
      Regional Plan 2017 providing a wide range of centre activities to meet the local needs of communities across Noosa Shire,
      acknowledging that the Principal regional activity centre at Maroochydore provides the highest order and a greater range of
      goods and services.
   h) The Noosa Business Centre is the major focus for major employment generating development and growth in Noosa Shire,
      particularly in the sectors of education, health and wellness, digital economy, environmental industries and professional
      services. Development at the Noosa Business Centre occurs in a staged manner following the construction of the internal
      circulation road system, creation of an open aired activated village green space for significant community gatherings and the
      provision of land for a sub-regional transit centre that has the potential to function as an integrated public transport node, with
      pedestrian and bicycle paths linking with nearby urban areas. The further development of the transit facility will be subject to
      further investigation and planning with the State Government;
