Surrounding Land Uses
Queensland Rail land abuts the site’s eastern boundary; with the North Coast rail tracks
located about 15m from that boundary.
Development surrounding the site is almost exclusively detached housing. Along Edward
Street to the north lots mostly range in size between 860m2 – 1200m2. Lots to the south
and west, along James and Charles Streets are predominantly around 2ha in size and are
also in the Detached Housing zone. An extract of the zoning map for the area is included as
Attachment 3.
