   5.    CONCLUSION & REASONS FOR DECISION
   The application seeks to use a dwelling house for short-term accommodation purpose. The
   dwelling house is located on the corner of David Low Way and Lowry Street. The planning
   scheme seeks to prioritise the preservation of medium density residential neighbourhoods for
   predominantly permanent residential dwellings and seeks to protect the amenity of surrounding
   residential areas from the impacts of short-term accommodation. Whilst acknowledging that
   short-term accommodation has been identified as a consistent use within the applicable zone,
   the subject site is located within the Coastal Communities area, under which the Noosa Plan
   provisions require that visitor accommodation is not located in areas which are predominantly
   permanent residential dwellings. As such, the proposal does not comply with a number of
   provisions of the Noosa Plan 2020. Additional visitor accommodation is not needed in the area
   and is likely to further erode the residential amenity for permanent residents in the area.
   Accordingly, the application is recommended for refusal.
