 PURPOSE & OVERALL OUTCOMES                                               PROPOSAL                                                            COMPLIANCE
1) The purpose of the Sustainable building design code is to ensure:
   a) development is sustainable with minimal environmental impact and maximum human comfort;
   b) development conserves resources and materials and designs buildings that work with their natural environment and not against them;
   c) buildings are resilient and resource efficient and incorporate sustainable building design that responds to Noosa Shire’s sub­tropical climate;
      d) building design minimises energy and water use and reuses stormwater for non-potable purposes and provides comfortable, healthy work and
         living environments; and
      e) buildings are cost effective to operate.
2) The overall outcomes sought for the Sustainable building design code are:
 a) Development is located, designed, constructed and
    operated in accordance with best sustainable design                                                                                       ☒Compliant

 c) Development incorporates water sensitive urban design

 d) Development includes passive design elements to respond
    to the local climate.
 e) Development minimises the reliance on non-renewable
      resources.
 f) Buildings are designed and constructed to be energy and
    water efficient.
 g) Development includes operational initiatives for energy
    efficiency.
