(1) The purpose of the Everton Park neighbourhood plan code is to provide finer grained planning at a local level for the Everton Park neighbourhood plan area.

(d) The purpose of the Everton Park neighbourhood plan code will be achieved through overall outcomes including overall outcomes for each precinct of the neighbourhood plan area.

(e) The overall outcomes for the Everton Park neighbourhood plan area are:

(a) The Everton Park centre located on South Pine Road and Stafford Road retains and enhances its traditional strip shopping character. It provides a range of centre services to meet the needs of existing and future residents of the Everton Park district, including any redevelopment south of the Everton Park centre.

Part 7 – Neighbourhood plans (Everton Park) Effective 30 June 2014 A variety of housing types and densities are incorporated in and around the Everton Park centre, catering for community needs, including emerging young adult and older populations.

Walking and cycling routes are safe and provide connectivity throughout the area, integrating with the Kedron Brook shared use pathway which forms an integral part of this network.

Development is of a height, scale and form which is consistent with the amenity and character, community expectations and infrastructure assumptions intended for the relevant precinct, sub-precinct or site and is only developed at a greater height, scale and form where there is both a community need and an economic need for the development.

(f) Everton Park centre precinct (Everton Park neighbourhood plan/NPP-001) overall outcomes are:

(a) This precinct accommodates a range of activities expected in a suburban centre.

The built form and character of the precinct as a traditional suburban shopping strip is maintained.

Development encourages pedestrian activity and movement with active street frontages and links across Stafford Road and South Pine Road in accordance with Figure a.

Development in the Everton Park centre sub-precinct (Everton Park neighbourhood plan/NPP-001a):

(i) provides for a range of centre activities with a strong focus on pedestrian movement along the Stafford Road frontage; provides for pedestrian links and relocation of vehicle access on Cutbush Road to enhance connectivity and safety through the centre.

(g) Central residential precinct (Everton Park neighbourhood plan/NPP-002) overall outcomes are:

(a) This ex-industrial land is redeveloped for residential, centre and recreation uses outside the State Government’s proposed north western transportation corridor.

Redevelopment is in accordance with Figure a, which provides for orderly development and appropriate visual and physical links between the Central residential a sub-precinct (Everton Park neighbourhood plan/NPP-002a) and Central residential b sub-precinct (Everton Park neighbourhood plan/NPP-002b).

The State Government's proposed north western transportation corridor is retained and protected pending investigation of future transport, and development adjoining this corridor includes adequate noise and landscape buffering

Note—The proposed north-western transportation corridor is identified in the South East Queensland Infrastructure Plan and Program 2009-2031.

Part 7 – Neighbourhood plans (Everton Park) Effective 30 June 2014 The Central residential a sub-precinct (Everton Park neighbourhood plan/NPP-002a) contains the former Woolworths distribution centre, which is identified for redevelopment for high density residential uses due to its close proximity to the Everton Park centre and public transport facilities. Development in this sub-precinct:

(i) does not support centre activities such as supermarkets, restaurants, department stores and grouped small-scale tenancies; provides a plaza, accessible as a public space by the community any time of the day.

The Central residential b sub-precinct (Everton Park neighbourhood plan/NPP-002b) is currently used for large format retail specialising in homewares or home improvement retailing requiring larger tenancies and generating less traffic than convenience shops or shopping centres. Development in this sub-precinct:

(i) ensures that redevelopment proposals for mixed use comprise of non- residential pedestrian oriented activating development at ground level and in the ground storey with residential development in storeys above ground storey, and integrates with the Central residential a sub-precinct; does not support centre activities such as supermarkets, restaurants, department stores and grouped small-scale;

for shops with a gross floor area greater than 1,500m2 is consistent with the outcomes for the sub-precinct; accommodates reshaped existing gross floor area of large format retail uses where the large format retail is integrated with the centre form according to the Centre or mixed-use code.

(h) Fallon Park precinct (Everton Park neighbourhood plan/NPP-003) overall outcomes are:

(a) This precinct covers Fallon Park and the Everton Park library and is intended to develop in a coordinated manner into a community node that provides a range of community and recreational services and facilities to the local community.

The library and the ‘Fallon Cottage’ workers cottage are preserved and used for community purposes.

Assessment criteria

The following table identifies the assessment criteria for assessable development.

Note—Development that exceeds the intended number of storeys or building height can place disproportionate pressure on the transport network, public space or community facilities in particular.

Note—-Development that is over-scaled for its site can result in an undesirable dominance of vehicle access, parking and manoeuvring areas that significantly reduce streetscape character and amenity.
