Council invites Expressions of Interest for the development and lease of five community facility sites located across the suburbs of Baringa and Nirimba (Caloundra South).

Each of the five sites are owned by Council as freehold land under a nomination of trust for community purposes, and as such the land use must comply with this requirement.

Council is offering a land only contribution (by way of a Lease), with the successful respondent responsible for developing the site, obtaining all relevant approvals and managing the final asset. To align with the community purpose use, Council’s intention for these sites is that they accommodate Local Community Centres or Neighbourhood Meeting Rooms as detailed in the Proposal Guideline. These facilities may be delivered within a larger development / facility / venue. Development proposals must include Council’s intended community outcomes for each site.

The five sites are located in the northern and central areas of the Caloundra South Priority Development Area. The lot description, location and the type of local community venue planned at each of the five sites in Baringa and Nirimba are detailed in the Proposal Guideline.
