              •   The proposal retains the established Eumundi Noosa Road streetscape and will have no impact
                  on the visual amenity of the site or streetscape (PO3 & PO4);

              •   The proposal complies with PO15 of the Code, which relates specifically to development and
                  land uses in the Medium Impact Industry Zone, as follows:

                             vehicle storage area, which is a highly sought-after service in the region, but
                             particularly in the coastal area given the need for coastal residents to store
                             watercraft;
                        o The proposal provides a diverse land use that is in demand in the area;
                        o Self-storage is a Warehouse use activity, which is a consistent land use in an
                             industrial area;
                        o The use could not occur in a centre zone, given the need for a large lot area to
                             accommodate the use and preference to conceal storage uses from prominent
                             streets;
                        o The proposal does not detract from the safe functioning or visual amenity of
                             Eumundi Noosa Road; and
