The subject site is situated at 5, 12 and 18 Taylor Court, Cooroy, and is described as Lots 2 and 5
on SP197517 and Lot 1 on SP235189.

The total site area comprises an area of 4.208ha. Lot 1 on SP235189 is currently used for
temporary uses associated with the Bruce Highway (Cooroy to Curra) upgrade and the two other
lots are currently vacant. Site specifics are as follows:

    •    Lot 1 has an area of 1.138ha and a road frontage to Holts Road of 83m and to Taylor
         Court of 14m.
    •    Lot 2 has an area of 2.016ha and a road frontage to Taylor Court of 19m.
    •    Lot 5 has an area of 1.054ha and a road frontage to Taylor Court of 31m.

All lots are free of any significant vegetation. Several easements exist over the site for water and
sewer. A copy of the Contour and Detail Survey for Lot 5, prepared by Project Urban, has been
attached. Lot 5 slopes towards the south-east. Elevations range from approximately 116m to
122m AHD.

The site location and context are illustrated in the figures below. The figures illustrate that the
site is located adjacent to the Bruce Highway. The site located in an industrial estate known as
the Nandroya Industrial Estate. This estate was developed by the state government in 2008 and
resulted in five (5) industrial allotments being created. The estate has experienced a very slow
take up with only temporary land uses having occupied the estate since titles were created.
