NOOSA PLAN

5.1 Specific Outcomes for the Cooroy & Lake Macdonald Locality

 

Specific Outcomes

Proposed Solution

 

Amenity

O1 Uses are located, designed and
operated to avoid significant adverse
changes to the light, air quality, noise,
accessibility or other conditions enjoyed by
users of associated, adjoining or nearby
uses.

Proposed residential use is not expected
to interfere with surrounding land use

 

Scenic amenity

O2 Important scenic vistas including those
to

and from Mt Cooroy, Mt Tinbeerwah and
Black

Mountain are protected and uninterrupted to
maintain aesthetic and cultural values of the
natural landscape.

The proposal protects existing vista to
local features.

 

Major road network

O3 The function of, and visual amenity and
character surrounding the, major road
network,

including Diamond St, Cooroy—Noosa Road,
Belli

Creek Road and Lake Macdonald Drive is
protected and enhanced.

 

The proposal does not front onto or
directly impact on any Major Roads. The
proposal is expected to generate extra
traffic however it will be within the carrying
capacity of the local road network.

 

Laneways

04 Uses do not diminish the ability of
laneways

to—

a) relieve traffic on streets;

b) provide convenient and safe rear access
to premises; and

c) add to the heritage character of Cooroy;
AND

O5 Access for new uses is only taken off a
laneway where upgrading works are carried
out

to the laneway to enable the laneway to
accommodate the anticipated levels of
traffic

Several laneways are provided in the
adjoining development to the west which
will connect with the proposed pathway
network to provide good connectivity.

 

 

Density
O6 The density of development within the
site area-

a) is compatible with surrounding
development;
b) and does not exceed—

i. For the Semi-Attached
Housing Zone-1 dwelling
unit per 400m2 of site area
with a maximum population
density of 100 persons per
hectare;

ii, For the Attached Housing

 

 

The density of the development is similar
to that of the surrounding area.

The proposal allows for all significant
natural features to be maintained in
present form.
