Comment:
The proposed development is consistent with the purpose and overall outcomes outlined in the Noosaville
Local Plan Code. The establishment of a dual occupancy is consistent with the zoning of the site and
representative of the intensity of surrounding development. The built form of the complex is inspired by its
Noosa River foreshore location and reinforces this through a contemporary built form that delivers residents
high quality subtropical living environment that has a direct relationship with the adjacent park and river.



        10.3.2 Medium Density Residential Zone
Under the Noosa Planning Scheme 2020 the site is in the Medium Density Residential Zone. Pursuant to Part
6.3.2.2 of the Scheme, the purpose and overall outcomes of the Zone that specifically relate to the site are
listed as follows:

    •   Medium density residential neighbourhoods are predominantly home to permanent residents.

    •   The character of medium density residential neighbourhoods varies due to factors such as proximity
        to beaches, the Noosa River, recreation spaces, centres, topography, availability of views, the
        established vegetated character, the presence of visitor accommodation and the age of
        development.

    •   Development makes a positive contribution to the look and feel of residential neighbourhoods by
        maintaining a low scale character with well designed buildings and landscaping that enhance the
        streetscape.
    •
    •   Development maintains a high level of residential amenity having regard to traffic, noise, dust, odour,
        lighting and other locally specific impacts.

    •   Development is supported by appropriate infrastructure and essential services and does not
        adversely impact on the continued operation, viability and maintenance of existing infrastructure or
        compromise future provision of planned infrastructure.
