345 Pierce Avenue Structure Plan
Key Elements
The 345 Pierce Avenue Structure Plan is applicable to all proposed development over
the subject site.
The Structure Plan provides additional and/or alternative planning provisions to the
Caloundra City Plan 2004. Where any proposed development conflicts with the
requirements of the Caloundra City Plan 2004, the Structure Plan will take
precedence. The Structure Plan comprises the following:
• a description of Key Elements of the Structure Plan;
• development assessment tables; and
• a code to control development of the subject site.
The Site Development Plan identifies three different Land Use Areas. These include:-
• Land Use Area 1 – Low Impact Industry
• Land Use Area 2 - Reserve for Environmental Purposes
• Lands Use Area 3 – Drainage Reserve
Land Use Area 1 is intended for smaller scale low impact service and light industry
activities (subject land currently intended for Core Industrial uses).
Land Use Area 2 is intended to protect those parts of the site with the most
significant ecological values which includes essential habitat and vegetation mapped
as part of the regional Ecosystems 12.3.4 (remnant, not of concern) and 12.3.13
(remnant, of concern). Land Use Area 2 will also provide a vegetation and habitat link
to the conservation areas to the east and west.
Land Use Area 3 is intended to detain and treat stormwater collected from the
development within Land Use Area 1. Parts will used for maintenance and fire
access. Minimal development is intended within this land use area apart from
facilities associated with stormwater management, maintenance and fire access and
rehabilitation works.
