Accommodation. The site is identified as a key corner in the Noosaville Framework and Character
Plan and seeks an activated frontage along Thomas Street and Gympie Terrace. The Local Plan
Code indicates development on key corners incorporate a high standard architectural design and
landscape outcomes and foster social and business interaction, shaded seating and landscaping.
The proposed development provides a fine grain, activated street frontage with a Noosa style
development consistent with the Noosa Design Principles. The proposal will deliver benefits to the
community in the form of a raised public realm, bicycle spaces, high quality on and off-street
landscaping. The design removes on-street parking for a wider bike lane and additional landscaping
to establish a great place characterised by a strong link between the commercial and footpath dining.
