Coolum Horizons Estate, 85 Yungar Street Coolum Beach.

For many of us this heavily treed site on the western slope of grandview hill has been a landark and home to s number of kangaroos often seen hopping along the nearby streets.

Sadly, much of the 9.8HA site was cleared in preparation for another 31 residential lots.   It is a challenging site with slope stability issues so many nearby residents will be monitoring progress very closely

Sunshine Coast Town Plan

The first draft of the new town plan is due out in 2024.

We are hopeful that no significant changes will affect our local area with much of the protected greenspace remaining and minimal opportunities for medium-density development.
