Council signs off on new 24-block Mary Valley subdivision
Subscriber only
McIntosh Creek’s population will be getting a shot in the arm in the near future with a 24-lot subdivision getting the tick of approval by Gympie Regional Council this month.
The blocks will be sliced from the front of a 115ha property located about 8km from Gympie, off McIntosh Creek Road.
The blocks range in size from 4017sq m (an acre) to 10,300sq m (2.5 acres) and will form stages three and four of The Grange subdivision which is already underway on adjoining blocks.
A 25th block contains the remaining 109ha of land which is not part of this subdivision application.

The development, owned by Cooroy-based Roberts Bros Holdings, was approved by the council’s planning department under delegation.
The deadline for approval was extended twice; once by Roberts Bros in October 2020, and then by the council in January this year.
