              (vii)    An innovative and responsive transport system
              (viii)   Coordinated and efficient infrastructure

              (ii)     Strategic Framework Map SFM 2 (Economy and Employment)

              (iv)     Strategic Framework Map SFM 4 (Biodiversity)

(4)    The strategic framework in its entirety represents the policy intent for the planning scheme.

Editor's Note—Noosa Council has consistently taken a long term planning approach to sustainable planning in Noosa Shire. The planning scheme
continues this approach and has adopted a 20­year plus planning horizon. However, the planning scheme itself (as a statutory document) is likely to
have an operational life of around 10 years.

Editor's Note—The strategic framework is taken to be the strategic outcomes for the purpose of section 16(1)(a) of the Act.
