A Development Application for a key city centre site has gone on public exhibition through Council's website this week.
The application is for a mixed-use development at the street block bound by Crown, Keira, Burelli and Atchison streets titled WIN Grand. The development includes three residential towers, commercial and co-working office space, retail, entertainment and wellness services such as a cinema, exhibition/performance space, a pool, gym and health services. The proposal has the buildings constructed around a central plaza, and there is basement car parking.
The proposal is the product of a number of years of detailed planning by the proponent and involved early engagement with Council to inform submission requirements for the development application.
The complexity of the project and the number of key agencies and stakeholders to be consulted for their technical expertise as part of in the assessment process means that the determination will take some time.
The proposal is a regionally significant development due to its dollar value. This means that while Council will assess the application, and seek feedback from a range of external agencies including the Design Review Panel, the proposal will ultimately be determined by the Southern Regional Planning Panel. It's anticipated this meeting will take place in 2022.
