One of Australia's leading private property groups, Walker Corporation has signed a landmark agreement with Sunshine Coast Council and SunCentral Maroochydore to accelerate the development of the Maroochydore City Centre.
Projected outcomes include:    
- $2.5 billion commitment
 - 15,000 projected jobs
 - $41 million forecasted profit for ratepayers
 - 160,000 square metres of commercial and retail space
 - 4,000 residential apartments.
 
Yesterday's historic announcement is a key milestone in the 53-hectare priority development area in the heart of Maroochydore.
The agreement will see Sunshine Coast Council retain ownership of the land until Walker Corporation delivers the buildings and infrastructure.
