This would be a long term proposition given that the village would need to becommenced prior to the need for such service industry. The site will be ideally suited to industrialdevelopment (once the Bonville Village proposal is substantially under way) as it is located in closeproximity to the Bonville Interchange, and generally has a slope of less than 10%.The site is not located within the Growth Areas Map and will require an amendment to these maps oncethey are reviewed by the Department of Planning. Given that development of this land for industry wouldbe a long term proposition, this is not considered a significant obstacle. The site is currently identified aspotential Rural Residential within the OLCSS Interim Document 2008 which would also requireamendment in the longer term.Coffs Harbour City Council Local Growth ManagementStrategy - Industrial Lands ComponentSection 9111
