                                                       Community implications of Sport and Recreation Uses:

                                                       •   Physical activity for the purpose of relaxation or enjoyment, undertaken through casual or

                                                           interaction.

                                                       •   Given local sport and recreational opportunities are largely focused on natural and cultural values,
                                                           the protection of these values is important for the maintenance of lifestyle. Hence efforts are
                                                           necessary to ensure outdoor recreational facilities have no adverse impact on the values around
                                                           which they are based.

                                                       •   The opportunity to experience the open space fosters an appreciation for and protection of the
                                                           natural environment.

                                                       •   The creation of tracks and trails, including bridle trails, help residents and visitors appreciate and
                                                           gain an understanding of the natural features, local flora and fauna and in some cases sites of
                                                           heritage significance.

                                                       •   Sport and recreation uses consistent with community values also bring significant economic benefits
                                                           to Noosa Shire.

                                                       •   Recreation and leisure opportunities are vital for all residents and visitors including people with
                                                           various levels of mobility and fitness.
