The Locality Plan prescribes a mix of residential dwelling densities ranging between 5 – 32
dwellings per hectare. Maximum building heights are proposed at 2 storeys within the Detached
Housing and Rural Residential zones and up to 3 storeys in the Neighbourhood Centre and
Attached Housing zones. The Noosa on Weyba Locality Plan also proposes differing built form
provisions (such as boundary setbacks, site cover and consequential gross floor areas) to those
sought in comparable urban areas under the Noosa and Maroochy planning schemes.
