2.   SITE DETAILS
2.1. Background
Council records identify that the use of the site for the purpose of a motel and caravan park pre-
dated 1986. Buildings and associated structures with the previous use have recently been
removed from the site.
2.2. Site Description
The application relates to three existing lots which are prominently located on the eastern side of
Cooroy. All lots have a frontage to Elm Street with the northern and southern lots having an
additional frontage to Diamond Lane and Opal Street respectively. The site is relatively flat and
no vegetation exists on site. A sewerage easement dissects the site from west to east.
2.3. Surrounding Land Uses
A range of varying zones and land uses apply to the surrounding area. The abutting land to the
east of the site is zoned Open Space Recreation and is occupied by a lawn bowls club with the
bowling green located adjacent to the site’s common boundary. Land to the north and south of
the subject site is zoned Business Centre and includes a range of commercial uses including
service stations and shops. Land to the north-east is zoned Community Services and was
previously an Energex Depot. A development application has been lodged on this site for offices,
shops and units.
