Community implications of Residential Use:

•   The values identified in the Community Vision are a major element of attraction to those who chose
    Noosa Shire as a place to live. Residential environments have a significant role in the maintenance
    of those values.

•   The impact of residential development on Noosa Shire’s natural resources, open space and clean
    environment, as well as the degree to which development is integrated with the landform and
    landscape will have a significant bearing on residents’ perceptions of the place they live, the Shire’s
    character and natural environment and residents’ lifestyle.
