Loop it around a monorail between the park and the resort and you may be onto a winner there!

Now that's the sort of thing I'm looking for!

Anyone know if an answer for building this resort has come any closer to a yes or a no yet.

The article in the OP links to the application. Nothing seems to have changed at a quick glance. 

http://pdonline.goldcoast.qld.gov.au/masterview/modules/applicationmaster/default.aspx?page=wrapper&key=228855#

 

It says so right on the application:

	Decision
	APPROVED (29/10/2015) - DELEGATED AUTH DECISION   So that's a yes.   (I realise the real question is whether VRTP is going ahead with the development, but really, the first indications we'll have for that will be survey pegs and bulldozers....)

APPROVED (29/10/2015)

I don't get how it works though, it was lodged as an already approved application? Was that because it was done by a private certifier so this was merely a formality? 

Application Number: BLD201513123
Description: NEW DWELLING
Code: BUILDING
Class: HOUSE
Work: CONSTRUCT
Lodged: 30/10/2015

I don't have access to my construction administrator today (she's trying to catch up on sleep) so i'll defer to @skeetafly for this one.

In other news, the link you've posted is an address in PIMPAMA for a HOUSE.

This is the application number you are looking for (MCU201600219)

This was lodged on 01/02/2016 to G.C.C.C.   Something this size will take between 6 to 12 months to get an approval.  Things to flag is this is only a PRELIMINARY APPROVAL.  Meaning 1 of many to come.  It’s also an IMPACT approval which means a lot of departments will be involved slowing down the approval.  I pulled out a few of concept plans if you want to have a look at.

.

Cheers. Seems the article from OP has the correct reference but incorrect link. 

Couple more photos.

 

I haven't had a good look at the application yet but looks like they are wanting to add something like the universal citywalk.

Only more uglier and more out of place.

Do you even know what is going on around Coomera at the moment?  One of my clients owns all of the shops along that street.  He gets calls all the time from developers wanting to buy his land and some of them are offering crazy money.

There has been so many development companies sitting on their hands waiting for the Coomera Town Centre to go ahead.  All the land around DW has be purchased many years ago and all the plans are in place.  No one has made a move because everyone was waiting for the Town Centre to go ahead.  That whole area either side of DW is going to boom.

Completely agree Skeet

it may look like an eyesore and out of place on the plans, it won't in 5 years when the are becomes heavily developed. 

I hope there's underground parking, otherwise the 26* spots allocated will be very popular.

 

* pulled out of arse based on plans

How can you say it's pulled out of the arse based on the plans when your first statement shows you can't read plans.    

^lol. I see what he's saying - there is parking indicated on the concept art, and there is only about 25 spots marked out.

I haven't looked at the ACTUAL plans, but the concept doesn't appear to show a ramp or any other suggestion that there is underground parking - although I would assume like most highrises, there would be.

I hope you remembered to count this one...

I suppose uses are right it won't look out place in few years of being built things don't always look the way they  appeal I'm probably just jumping to conclusion.

Fair call, I missed the second reference to parking.

But it will be much easier to manage now given tiger island is expanding in preparation of using the tigers for detention centre patrols.
