3.0 SITE DESCRIPTION

3.1 SUBJECT SITE


The site is located in an industrial estate previously 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 one of the
five allotments being occupied since titles were created. Figures 1 & 2 illustrate that the site is
located adjacent to the Bruce Highway.

The site address is 1 Taylor Court, Cooroy and is legally described as Lot 6 on SP197517. The site
has an area of 1.5 hectares and is an irregularly shaped lot with frontages to Holts Road and
Taylor Court. The site is vacant. A temporary stockpile of soil is currently located on the site.
The site is serviced by reticulated water and sewer. Stormwater is treated and detained via
swales and a detention basin in a Council drainage reserve located behind the site. Four
easements encumber the site. Easements E & F are in favour of Council and Easements K & L are
in favour of Energex.
