New planning initiatives to support business and industry
The Queensland Government has finalised a series of planning initiatives to support the state’s economic recovery. The Property Council provided a submission on the proposals, and is pleased to see a number of concerns addressed in the final documents.
The initiatives include:
- Amendments to the Planning regulation to allow a streamlined approach for low-risk economic value adding uses
- Changes to DA Rules to allow development applications to be publicly notified by digital or other media
- Amendments to improve requirements relating to sign placement on land as part of the public notification process
- Simplified rules for Ministerial and local government infrastructure designations
- Changes to allow Local Government Infrastructure Plans (LGIPs) to be updated more frequently and regularly
