The plan also identifies appropriate treatment for stormwater quality, prior to water flowing into adjacent
buffer and wet heath land. Implementation of this plan will reduce current nutrient loads which are
supporting weed infestation and exotic species within the buffer to the wet heath area. It will also treat
stormwater which flows from the adjacent Peregian Beach Hotel, exceeding the treatment requirements
of the Noosa Planning Scheme.

7.10 Landscaping Masterplan
A detailed Landscape Masterplan has been developed by Vivo Design, and is included as an element of
this application and is contained in Appendix G of this Report. This Masterplan provides an integrated
treatment for the entirety of the proposal providing softening of the proposed buildings, reinforcement of
pedestrian access into and through the site, and a gradual integration of the proposal with the significant
vegetation to the west of the site.

This Landscape Masterplan also includes the introduction of natural landscaping elements such as
stone and wood. It also maximises the use of appropriate native plantings, suitable to the coastal
nature of the subject site.

The Landscape Masterplan reinforces the high standard of design which has been integrated into the
proposal. It will ensure the proposal is both attractive as an accommodation option for Peregian beach,
and a positive contributor to the Peregian Beach Village and David Low Way streetscape.

7.11 Accessibility

During development of the proposal an Accessibility Assessment was undertaken. This assessment
identifies ways in which the proposal can meet the requirements of future visitors who may have
disabilities. Beyond standard requirements of car parking provision, this assessment has been untilised
to ensure that a broad cross section of the community can access the proposed accommodation in
either the beach shack or hostel forms.

A copy of this assessment has been included in Appendix O of this Application.
