Industry workshop for changes to the Plan Sealing process

On 3 July 2017 the Planning Act 2016 and the Planning Regulation 2017 came into effect, establishing a new system for land use planning within Queensland.

This legislation change sets up a new framework and overarching policy, and affects a number of different facets of planning within the State, including changes to the way local governments can approve a plan of subdivision (plan sealing).

The City will be holding two workshops to look at the changes and new requirements for lodging Subdivision Plans which will cover the following topics:

• The application and approval process for subdivision plans under the Planning Act 2016
  
• Key differences between Sustainable Planning Act 2009 and Planning Act 2016; and
  
• The City’s approach to the changes and implementation of new processes.

The sessions will be held on Wednesday 9th August 2017 and Monday 14th August 2017. Registrations will commence 15 minutes prior to the start times.

These workshop are intended to assist industry in understanding the new changes, identify any issues and provide solutions in streamlining the process.

If you have any questions or have experienced any issues so far please email your queries prior to the workshops to infrastructurecompliance@goldcoast.qld.gov.au so we can provide feedback on the day.
