Meeting papers

•    A5.3.3 Ensure a high proportion of new housing is within 400 metres of activity centres,
     schools and public transport, assisting residents to be less dependent on private motor
     vehicles to access what they need.
•    A5.3.4 Ensure new housing is not located where it would have a reverse amenity impact on
     industrial businesses or other existing or committed business or infrastructure activities.
     Acknowledging that industrial land is limited, allow for caretaker residences where they do
     not reduce capacity of business and industrial precincts.
•    A5.3.5 Integrate new housing including affordable or social housing within the community
     and not cluster it in isolated areas.
•    A5.4.1 Strengthen regulatory provisions in the Noosa Plan which will result in a greater
     delivery of small dwellings, accessible housing, affordable housing and social housing
     throughout the medium and high density residential zones and within major centres. Initiate
     changes to the Planning Scheme to incorporate Inclusionary planning provisions and achieve
     this through mechanisms such as development bonuses and incentives such as increased
     developable floor area or one additional storey in larger centres
•    A5.4.5 Strengthen regulatory provisions in the Noosa Plan which will result in a greater
     delivery of small dwellings, accessible housing, affordable housing and social housing
     throughout the medium and high density residential zones and within major centres. Initiate
     changes to the Planning Scheme to incorporate Inclusionary planning provisions and achieve
     this through mechanisms such as development bonuses and incentives such as increased
     developable floor area or one additional storey in larger centres
•    A5.5.11 Investigate opportunities to make available Council owned land for housing that is
     desperately needed and currently lacking within Noosa Shire such as social housing,
     affordable housing, or crisis accommodation.
           o Investigate potential for housing on 62 Lake Macdonald Drive, Cooroy. Undertake
               appropriate consultation with the local community.
           o In partnership with the State, masterplan optimum social, economic and urban
               design outcomes for redevelopment of land in central Tewantin for housing and
               parking.
           o Partner with Community housing provider(s) to seek State Government funding to
               support social and affordable housing and to deliver such housing on appropriate
               Council owned land.
•    A5.6.2 Ensure new housing is located where it is appropriately serviced and offers safe
     convenient access to goods and services.
•    A5.6.3 Ensure vulnerable residents are not concentrated in isolated areas where they may
     be susceptible to poor social outcomes or at risk of natural hazards
•    A5.6.4 Ensure Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) principles are
     adhered to in the delivery of housing, including social and affordable housing.
•    A5.6.7 Ensure new housing is not at the cost of the character and cultural values of the
     community

This Strategy outlines a number of recommendations for amendments to the Planning Scheme
which included site-specific outcomes for Cooroy relating to:
•    Further investigation into affordable housing on Council owned land at 62 Lake MacDonald
     Drive.
•    Review of scheme provision for vacant State Land close to the centre of town and at the
     edge of town in order to encourage integrated housing outcomes.

A further recommendation included review of where relocatable home parks would be a consistent
use and noted that small numbers of tiny homes might be appropriate on State, Council or
community owned lands.
