Eumundi supermarket
Known locally as the “old strawberry farm” the site at the southern entrance to Eumundi – bounded by Memorial Dr and Eumundi Noosa Rd – has already been approved by Sunshine Coast Council (SCC) for a 4,293 sqm service station. Altum Property Group’s application to SCC for a Material Change of Use (MCU) is seeking approval for a retail development with a 1,200 sqm supermarket and 272 sqm speciality retail with parking for 72 cars. The MCU is close to the end of the Public Notification Stage and individuals have an opportunity to formally register with council their views for or against by 24 July. To express
your support or concerns email SCC at: mail@ sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au and include the MCU Application number MCU22/0052. Explain your reasons and include your name and address. You do not have to be a local resident to comment. Development Director for Altum, Alex Rigby said the response from the community over the past four months has been overwhelmingly positive. “Eumundi residents and people who live in the catchment area have identified the benefits to locals of less travel for a full-range supermarket. Other benefits cited are the 72 carparks available for family shopping and the potential for an increase in employment opportunities. Cont. p3
