Download date: 05 Oct 2021 Sir Walter Campbell ‐ Judge, CJ, and University Chancellor. By Geoff Barlow and JF Corkery This is the second of three articles* on the life and work of Sir Walter Campbell, Queensland jurist and Governor. This article examines Walter Campbell’s broad‐ranging contribution to public administration, his long standing interest and involvement in the education sector and his career at the bar and on the bench. Wrote Walter Campbell to friend Daniel Hart in 1998, “in 1946 we all ... had ideas about reshaping the world”. In 1999, in his taped recollections, he recalled a desire to change things. “My aim at the university was to do philosophy, and I ended up doing an MA in philosophy … I thought that philosophy would solve all the problems of the world.” Although Walter Campbell started out in the philosophy classroom, his career came to reflect the many facets of the man himself, spanning philosophy, law, academia and politics. -

3.12 Inner Suburbs District 3.12.1 Description and Intent
CairnsPlan – March 2009 3.12 Inner Suburbs District 3.12.1 Description and Intent The Inner Suburbs District encompasses the longer established suburbs of the City which contain a range of residential, commercial, community, recreational and light industrial land uses. The District is almost fully developed with the opportunities for new residential development being limited to a few larger sites in the north-western sector of the District. Sites of local cultural heritage and character precincts are protected. The natural features of the District are the remnant areas of the Cairns Central Swamp and the hillslopes of the Whitfield Range in the north and west of the District. The District is intended to provide a range of opportunities for residential living. These opportunities extend from rural residential style living in several small pockets of existing development on the hillsides to conventional residential living at the outer edges of the District and medium density residential living in the inner part of the District, particularly in locations in proximity to the District and Sub-Regional Centres, community facilities and public transport routes. It is intended that the existing Local, District and Sub-Regional Centres should be consolidated. It is not envisaged that there should be any significant expansion of these centres or development of new centres, apart from a Local Centre to service a developing residential area at Kanimbla. There are opportunities for commercial development in a number of locations, particularly along sections of the arterial roads. It is intended that the existing commercial and service industrial area to the south- east of Mulgrave Road should continue to be used for these purposes. -
