Protect Our Paradise aims to protect the qualities that make Douglas Shire such a desirable place to live, work and play-that keep our vital tourism industry alive. We believe the Shire should progress, embracing new growth and development. But we are most concerned that we do not, in the process, damage the very appeal that makes our destination so desirable. Our Shire is a sought-after holiday d
estination precisely because of its unique point-of-difference to other destinations - it is laidback and unspoilt, with developments “no taller than a palm tree”, giving us a special village charm. Protect Our Paradise believes that all development should comply with the Douglas Planning Scheme to preserve our village signature. Protecting the essential appeal of our Shire is enshrined in clearly specified codes in the Douglas Planning Scheme. We believe that any development that does not comply with these traditional codes, is not a responsible development for the Shire.
