The minimum factor of 0.5421 was appliedDNRME to a telecommunicationsAct site in Bayview Heights. The valuation was issued in accordance with SVS policy at $45,000, with a cosmetic change subsequently processed in QVAS to amend theon AVLU to 452. The maximum factor for an actual residentialRTI property is 1.404for 5 Pyne Street, Edge Hill, which is increasing to $330,000 while the minimum factor is 0.636 for a steeply sloping undeveloped site in Dowsett Close, Yorkeys Knob reducing to $420,000 on the basis of a subject sale. Central Cairns The majority of residential values increased by 5% though well located premium suburbs such as Edge Hill, Upper Whitfield, Parramatta Park and Cairns North experienced increases of between 15- 20%. ThosePublished residential properties in close proximity to the Cairns Esplanade (without actual frontage) have experienced the greatest increases of up to 30%. Some localities with poor visual amenity have been rewritten at previous value levels which highlights market preferences. Northern Beaches Within the northern beaches there are approximately 17,200 issuing valuations. Predominately northern beaches land values were increased in the range of 5-15% with relativity adjustments made where appropriate. 18-481Basis Report File B Page 3 of 1391 Active estates (e.g. Bluewater, Elysian, Half Moon Estate, Smithfield Village, Canopys Edge, The Pocket & Springfield Estate) received a 5% increase with the exception being newer developments within Argentea at Palm Cove which received a 10% increase.

Of the remaining valuations, just over 13% increased by about 7.5% and nearly 11% increased by around 10-15%.

About three quartersLog of valuation increases stem from a rise of $20-25/m² (10-13%) in base rates in localities like Woree, Bentley Park and Edmonton, with the vast majority of valuations increasing between 5% and 15%. The total cumulative value of southern corridor multi unit properties increased by 9.6%, with an average rise of 9.2%. Within the northern beaches there are 453 multi unit properties. The multi unit sector was generally rewritten with the exception of Yorkeys Knob, Holloways Beach and Machans Beach non beachfront properties, which increased up to 15% to maintain a premium above residential levels. Multi unit properties were collected within the UCalcs data system resultingDisclosure in some changes to existing relativity. The minimum factor of 0.889 was applied to a large site in Trinity Beach, which was reduced as part of the Ucalc data collection exercise as it was considered too2009 highly valued. The maximum factor of 1.62 was applied to a 38m² road licence on Williams Esplanade in Palm Cove, where the existing value was considered low with the rental valuation increased from $37,000 to $60,000.

Welcome to Yirrganydji (and Djabugay) Country. We hope that you enjoy your stay. Please keep our environment clean and healthy and we wish you a safe journey on our traditional country. We also wish to acknowledge the elders and families of the Yirrganydji, Djabuganydji, Buluwai, Nyagali, and Guluy Peoples. The bountiful tropical waters surrounding Cairns sustained the Indigenous Peoples who first came to this naturally blessed region many years ago. The magical combination of ancient rainforest, protected mangrove systems and monsoonal rain that fed the inland rivers of the Gulf Savannah provided pristine breeding grounds and protection for many native species including barramundi, bream, jewfish, grunter, catfish, cod, eels, turtles, prawns, crayfish, oysters and periwinkles. Today these waters sustain a vibrant tourism industry that welcomes visitors from all over the world to experience the natural beauty of this iconic destination. The Great Barrier Reef continues to provide fishing experiences of a life time and thanks to the introduction of an extensive inshore Net Free Zone in 2015 the fish here are growing in numbers and size. It’s amped up fishing on another scale!
