A proposal to subdivide more than 164 lots of land to cater for a massive 17ha residential expansion of the Tallwoods Village estate at Hallidays Point has been lodged with MidCoast Council.
The plans, lodged with the council on Monday, follow a 2017 change of land use in which the subject site was changed from rural to a mix of environmental conservation and residential to allow for the future expansion of the popular Tallwoods Village estate.
Plans released by MidCoast Council at the time indicated that the change of land use would pave the way for a future expansion project of around 80 lots.
These latest plans, however, are double that amount with 164 lots earmarked for development.
It is not known yet what the cost of the expansion project will be until the subdivision occurs and a development application to expand the site is lodged.
“Studies undertaken for Hallidays Point with the community in the late 1990s, identified this land as a logical extension of the Tallwoods Village,” Roger Busby, MidCoast Council‘s Manager Strategic Planning said in 2017.
“This local initiative flowed through to our regional plans, with the NSW State Government recognising this site as potential residential land.
“This planning proposal is the first step toward developing the land by changing its zone. If approved, subdivision applications will follow to create the lots.”
Planning for the Tallwoods Village, Mr Busby noted, had always made allowance for this extension.
Local roads were planned and built to cater for these future lots, with access from The Pulpit.
There will be no direct access from Blackhead Road, except during emergencies, such as fires.
Tallwoods Village currently comprises of a number of established residential homes and a world-class, 18-hole championship, on-site restaurant and twelve bungalow-styled accommodation outlets where people are able to stay and play.
The subdivision plans, lodged by Coastplan, state that the subject land is suitable for urban growth and meets local and regional strategies for the Mid North Coast.
