          significantly exceeds the retail caps set by the Noosa Plan; and
          5.1. will not support the growth of the Noosa Business Centre as being a multi-
               function employment node which provides for a wide range of business uses;

               take advantage of potential new employment opportunities.

          11.7.2 tt iv, v & viii of the Noosaville Locality Code as:

               without the architectural features unique to Noosa;
          6.2. overall the built form is more suited to retail uses than to the other uses
               proposed such as low impact industry;

               screened from Council’s major road network;

    12.   The proposal does not comply with the draft Noosa Plan as:
          12.1. the quantum of retail proposed is not envisaged on the site and does not
                advance nor assist in preparing for a transitioning or changing economy
                contrary to Strategic Intent 3.2.6 - A diverse and resilient economy and
                Strategic Outcomes 3.3.5(r) and (s)(i)(B);
          12.2. the proposal is not contributing to the key priority sectors identified in Strategic
                Intent 3.2.6;

                Driveways and Parking Code as carparking is grossly deficient and the
                applicant has not demonstrated there will not be adverse effects on the
                surrounding traffic network;
