The Queensland Government has announced nine projects have been identified for the fast-tracked state facilitated development planning pathway.
The projects have been issued with proposed declaration notices and feedback is being sought across the next two weeks.
The state facilitated development planning pathway was announced in April 2024, and many projects were craned over from one planning portal to another in a bid to achieve faster planning approvals.
The Bill supports more homes being built faster through the new pathway for infill housing developments that deliver diverse and affordable housing.
Once declared by the Queensland Minister for Housing and Planning, applications can be assessed within a minimum of 75 business days.
The new legislation also allows the minister to condition social and affordable housing on development applications.
