1.3.1 Adjacent Land Use

The site is bounded to the north by a narrow strip of regrowth vegetation separating the site
from council owned playing fields, sporting complexes and associated infrastructure, and semi-
attached housing. To the east of the site is the Peregian Beach Hotel and David Low Way. A
narrow block of commercial buildings occur at the south-east site boundary, with the remainder
of the southern and the entire western site boundaries being bounded by remnant wet heath
vegetation communities of Noosa National Park.

The subject site has strategic environmental importance given its proximity to Noosa National
Park, which is identified and protected as a place of natural significance on the Register of the
National Estate (RNE) by the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC)
Act, and an Open Space Conservation Zone within the Noosa Plan (2006).
