The Property Council of Australia has welcomed Townsville City Council’s latest commitment to revitalise the city centre through its revised incentives package.
The package offers a range of incentives to stimulate new and repurposed development, attract businesses to the city centre and activate its streets.
Chair of the Property Council’s Townsville Chapter, Teri Humphreys, has encouraged industry to participate in the incentives program.
“The updated incentives package will make investment in the city centre more attractive and build the early momentum we need to get things moving.
“I would really like to see our industry embrace these incentives”.
The Property Council’s Queensland Executive Director, Jen Williams, said that the incentives package would lift industry’s confidence to invest in Townsville.
“The Property Council congratulates the Townsville City Council for its leadership and the renewed focus on the City Centre.
“A vibrant and busy CBD is a central component of any city. There are thousands of businesses in the city that rely on a consistent level of foot traffic and incentives such as these send a clear message that the city centre is open for business”.
