Brisbane City Council updated requirements on new townhouse developments.
“In September last year, the council requested State Government’s approval to amend the council’s City Plan 2014, in a bid to prevent apartment blocks and townhouses from being built on blocks larger than 3000 square metres in low-density residential zoned suburbs. “
Brisbane Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner welcomed the government’s tick of approval stating, “ I am committed to building the infrastructure our city needs, while protecting the liveability of our suburbs and that is exactly what this proposed major amendment can achieve.”
