Priorities for Noosa’s Housing Choices

Outcome: A diverse range and choice in housing types, size and location are available to meet resident housing needs.

Outcome: New housing is located with good access to public transport, employment and services.




                                          T
  Provide opportunities for a diverse range of housing types, particularly smaller dwellings, in locations close to transport, services and employment.
 	




                                        F
  Allow smaller 1-2 bedroom dwellings in a mixed use format in town centres.
 	

  Identify opportunities for artisan residences and live-on premises opportunities for small business.
 	




                                       A
  Allow secondary small dwellings up to 65sqm on the same site as an existing house. Include specific criteria relating to minimum lot size, site cover and distance
 	




                                      R
   from existing dwelling.

  Identify opportunities for greater housing choice in hinterland towns and villages, subject to the provision of adequate infrastructure.
 	




                                     D
  Review the development provisions for the Semi-attached and Attached housing zones to encourage smaller 1 and 2 bedroom dwellings.
 	

  Maintain suitable locations for aged care facilities for older people.
 	

Outcome: New housing is focussed within the existing urban area.
  Focus new housing development on “infill” rather than “greenfield” locations (developing vacant or under-used land within existing urban areas rather than the
 	
   development of new housing estates).

  Identify vacant or underutilised sites within the existing urban area for attached housing.
 	

Outcome: Land for attached housing is available and dedicated for permanent housing.
  Investigate whether there is a need to identify certain areas as being suitable as attached housing for use for permanent living only.
 	

Outcome: Infrastructure supports new housing development.
  Ensure adequate provision of infrastructure supports increases in housing density, particularly, water, sewerage and transport.
