Landsborough unit development withdrawn In a surprise outcome, the controversial multiunit and rooming accommodation proposal for 37 Maleny Street in Landsborough has been axed by the developer. On May 10, the developer – 37 Maleny Street Pty Ltd – informed Sunshine Coast Council that the application was being withdrawn and asked for a proportional refund of the application fee of $16,041. The development was the first of its kind, bringing a different style of small living accommodation to Landsborough. However, the Landsborough community had issues with the higher intensity living that overstepped what was allowable under the planning scheme, as well as the aesthetics such a development would present as the western entry to the town. Many locals also voiced their apprehension about the social makeup of the residents of such a development and the specific issues this might create for the small town, as the developer would not reveal who was targeted to be accommodated in the complex. Although this decision brings an end to this chapter another has opened for the site, with the developer lodging a new application to split the 4,703m2 land parcel into eight parcels ranging in size from 456m2 to 739m2.

662m2 and 739m2 in the northern third of the property. The second stage creates six smaller lots within a community title subdivision on the southern two-thirds of the land. The planning report submitted to council states that the current dam will be filled in to “maximise the development potential of the site”. The report also notes that the site will be cleared of all vegetation. The planning report contends that the proposal falls within what is allowable under the planning scheme. This means that the application is deemed as ‘code assessable’ and, as a result, is not open to community consultation or public submissions.
