Country Club Casino Launceston Tasmania
An extended golf course may be out of the picture, but the more than $400 million Country Club Estate proposed venture is a step closer with the council set to consider a planning scheme amendment to allow it. In May, when the project was first announced, it proposed the golf course holes north of Country Club Avenue would become a residential development and nine new holes would be built on disused land around the Country Club casino and resort. Instead it will be staged over 10 years and involves turning land around the Prospect Vale casino and resort into a residential development with a retail space, a park, open spaces and a retirement living area. In other news: The site is currently zoned as major tourism under the Tasmanian Planning Scheme, but part will need to be rezoned to allow the residential development and the retirement living areas. The Meander Valley Council has agreed to consider a scheme amendment for the project. Federal Group's corporate affairs executive general manager Daniel Hanna said the project would create up to 380 residential lots. 'The rezoning application with the Meander Valley Council is a vital next step towards fulfilling the vision for a high-quality development surrounding the Country Club Resort,' he said. 'As part of proposal we have been in consultation with the local Prospect Vale community and have taken on their feedback to our initial development plans and in particular the proposal to extend the golf course. 'After listening to the community, a decision was made to instead focus efforts on making sure the existing golf course layout is retained, but upgraded to offer a truly world-class experience.' The proposed scheme amendment will be publicly exhibited for public comment before it is handed to the Tasmanian Planning Commission. If the amendment is successful, then a development application for the site can be lodged.

Kin Capital managing director William McGeachie said working with the community was vital to ensuring the project enhanced the surrounding area and therefore information sessions would be held. Information sessions will be held from December 3-5 and Mr McGeachie said residents would have the opportunity to view the proposed masterplan, share their ideas and ask questions.
