           iii.    follows a logical sequencing of development consistent with the needs of the
                   community that is dependent on the—
                   A   timing and construction of the external and internal road systems;
                   B   dedication of a substantial area of open space; and
                   C development of a substantive amount of non-retailing development for
                   employment opportunities beyond Retail business;
           iv.     is developed at a low scale and density with distinctive and unique design
                   elements, determined by the setting and recognisable as a Noosa

           viii.   provides visual and physical connectivity across and throughout the site;
           ix.     is designed to ensure that peak traffic flows and access to the Shire Business
