Development focus of lunch
DEVELOPERS of the proposed new shopping complex for Mareeba will be the guest speakers at this month’s Chamber of Commerce business luncheon.
The proposal features a new shopping centre, with a Woolworths supermarket and other speciality retail shops, and a drive-through fast food outlet.
The site, which is across the road from the Mareeba Centre and the Coles supermarket, was purchased by Sphere Group Development which has now lodged a development application with Mareeba Shire Council for the project.
The chamber’s luncheon, to be held on 17 August from 12 noon at Mareeba Leagues Club, will provide locals with the opportunity to hear about the project and what it means for the town.
During the construction period, 120 direct and indirect jobs will be created, with 180 ongoing jobs when the centre becomes operational, expected to be at the end of 2023.
The two-course luncheon costs $45 for non-members and $35 for members.
