     2.5 What Matters Most to Noosa

     A deeper dive into “what matters most to Noosa”
     revealed the following consistently strong themes
     from Phase 1 engagement.


     —	Everyone (residents, businesses, and visitors) should
        be encouraged to tread lightly, ensuring their presence
        enriches Noosa, protects our environment and leaves a
        lasting, positive impact.


     —	Tourism can be for good, with visitors helping to fund the
        cost of environmental protection, regeneration of places and
        land, Noosa’s infrastructure improvements, and community
        benefit projects.


     —	Noosa’s lifestyle, community, and visitor experience should
        be enhanced by tourism, through thoughtful management
        and bold leadership, creating benefits for all.


     — R
        esident amenity, housing supply, and accessibility should
       be prioritised and improved, supporting a balanced and
       inclusive community.


     — T
        raffic management and congested areas should be
       addressed – by improving the way we move around Noosa
       and access places especially during peak periods.



     These themes have been shaped into four Guiding
     Principles, each supported by clear goals, practical
     actions, and simple ways to monitor and measure
     progress. Importantly, they reflect the ideas and
     solutions shared by the community.
