(p) village areas are developed:

(i) as a consolidation of the existing village areas to make more efficient use of the infrastructure and to achieve a more cohesive village identity; and

(ii) to be sympathetic and complementary to the distinctive character and amenity of the village derived from its location, setting in a rural landscape, the scale and intensity of the settlement pattern, and the range and nature of facilities and services provided.

(q) the use and development of Strategic Sea Port land[5]and Strategic Airport land[6] is not adversely affected by land uses in the Mackay Frame Locality;

(r) development of land adjacent to and within the possible future multi-modal freight corridor does not close off options for the establishment of a Port Access corridor linking the industrial areas of the City with the Mackay seaport;

P1 Commercial development is located in the commercial zone and does not detract from the network of centres referred to in the Desired Environmental Outcomes.	S1 No solution specified.
P2 Residential development where residential use is the predominant activities (as distinct from farming for example) occurs on land located within the Village zone, Urban Residential zone and the Rural Residential zone.	S2 No solution specified.
P3 Tourist development sites generally exhibit a number of the following characteristics: (i) proximity to infrastructure and services adequate to meet the day-to-day needs of the tourist population likely to be generated by development on the site; and (ii) proximity to a natural attraction without the potential for adverse effects upon the attributes or values which give rise to the attractiveness of the site; or (iii) an area of land sufficient to contain fully the extent of the proposed development and the potential impacts likely to flow from it; (iv) land suitable in its physical characteristics to accommodate the form, scale and intensity of development proposed without imposing unnecessary or unacceptable impacts upon the surrounding area; or (v) are not located within established residential areas or accessed only via residential street.	S3 No solution specified.
P4 Land uses adjacent to industrial areas and key extractive resources areas which are incompatible with those areas include a buffer which mitigates any adverse impacts from the industrial use on the new use.	S4 No solution specified.
P5 Residential development on land zoned for residential uses, adopts or creates new traffic and transport systems which: (i) are based on the hierarchy of roads; (ii) are appropriate to the transport and traffic tasks required by the proposed development, having regard to its scale, intensity and character; (iii) are linked efficiently and safely with the existing road network; (iv) promote the safe movement of traffic, cyclists and pedestrians throughout the development area; and (v) minimises the potential for through traffic and local traffic conflicts and for industrial and non-industrial traffic conflicts.

Division 8 Overall & Specific Outcomes and Probable & Acceptable Solutions for the Commercial Zone in the Mackay Frame Locality

(1) The overall outcomes for the zone are the purpose of the code.

(2) The overall outcomes for the Commercial zone within the Pioneer River (Urban) precinct are the following.

(a) commercial facilities and services are small-scale and located in an existing centre which:

(i) has a floor area significantly less than 2,500m² GFA;

(ii) does not provide the complete range of functions anticipated for a local centre as established in the network of centres referred to in the Desired Environmental Outcomes; and

(iii) consists of a re-development of or addition to an existing premises but does not change the role and function of the existing centre.

(b) specialised commercial activities servicing the needs of highway traffic and short‑stay visitor accommodation are established in the Commercial zone along Nebo Road and in the Illawong Beach area and include family restaurants, fast food stores and service stations.

(3) The overall outcomes for the Commercial zone within the McCready’s Creek precinct are:

(a) all centres within the precinct provide a local and neighbourhood service function consistent with the network of centres referred to on the Information Map – Network of Centres and the overall outcomes for the code, specifically:

(i) a Neighbourhood Centre is established at Andergrove and a Major Neighbourhood Centre is established at Rural View; and

(ii) local centres are established at Black's Beach and Bucasia.

(b) development of the existing Local Centre at Black’s Beach is limited such that:

(i) the local centre function is maintained and not exceeded; and

(ii) the increase in the size of the centre in the life of this Planning Scheme does not exceed 10% of the existing gross floor area existing.

(c) development of the centres incorporates design and siting measures and on-site environmental management to protect adjoining land from any adverse environmental effects.

(4) The overall outcomes for the Commercial zone within the Goosepond Creek precinct are:

(a) as the secondary major focus for shopping and entertainment in the City, the Mt Pleasant Sub-Regional Centre supports the dominant role of the City Centre.

(b) new development in the Sub-Regional Centre occurs within the boundaries defined within the Goosepond Creek Precinct.

(i) except in Sams Road/Heath Road area, highly developed shopping;

(ii) limited entertainment and leisure facilities;

(iii) health care services;

(iv) smaller-scale business and commercial services;

(v) small scale service industries;

(vi) local convenience shopping facilities; and

(vii) higher density residential development and visitor accommodation adjacent to but not accessible from the Bruce Highway.

(d) highly developed shopping, entertainment and leisure, and cultural facilities are inconsistent with the overall outcomes for the zone.[8]

(e) the Sams Road / Heaths Road area within the Sub-Regional Centre accommodates:

(i) a range of mostly small to medium scale non-retail commercial and highway-related facilities and services;

(ii) the relocated Mater hospital complex; and

(iii) medical service functions to support the hospital.

(f) highly developed medical services in other centres in the precinct is inconsistent with the overall outcomes for the zone as they are appropriately located within the City Centre.

(g) the Mt Pleasant local centre, located at the corner of Phillip Street and the Mackay Bucasia Road, continues to accommodate small scale convenience shopping facilities and services and a small range of local, non-retail commercial services in a manner which complements the role of the sub-regional centre.

(h) the North Mackay Mixed Use Centre, at Malcolmson Street North Mackay, accommodates a wide range of small scale services, some of which relate to marine activities, while functioning as a local centre within the network of centres in the City.
