 ***Greater commercial gross floor area will only be supported post 2031 if the following can be demonstrated:

     a. The additional commercial floorspace does not compromise Maroochydore as the Principal Regional Activity Centre for the Sunshine Coast.

     b. Transport infrastructure can service the future development and not jeopardise the road hierarchy and movement network.

     c. The additional commercial floor space contributes to self containment within the Sunshine Coast sub region providing opportunities for economic growth and increased employment opportunities.
