It will be years before works starts on the 3480ha development, known as Caboolture West but that has not stopped developers lodging applications with council to build thousands of new homes.
Once complete the new suburb will feature 27,000 homes, a town centre, six retail centres, TAFE, private hospital, three high schools and nine primary schools.
The new hub is about 5km west of Caboolture and Morayfield, bounded by the D’Aguilar Hwy to the north, Caboolture River Rd to the south and low hills to the west of Old North Rd.
It will not pop up overnight though with Moreton Bay Regional Council predicting the $9.5 billion development will take 40 years to be fully developed.
Here are the details of the pending development applications:
AV Jennings
This monster development featuring more than 8700 homes was one of the first lodged for the Caboolture West precinct.
The application was lodged by Peak Urban Planning & Survey on behalf of developer AV Jennings in August last year.
It proposes to subdivide 410ha of land between 649 Old North Rd, Bellmere to lots 14, 98 and 99, Old North Rd, Rocksberg and build 8700 homes.
The development is proposed to include a local centre precinct, retail services, a school, place of worship, telecommunications, healthcare services and emergency services.
It will cater for approximately 22,500 people – which is more than the suburb of North Lakes.
Lilian Ang bought the land for $1.25 million from Dinlex in 1991 and has given her consent for development.
