A review of a key Toowoomba Regional Council (TRC) strategic plan that forms part of the Planning Scheme will be progressed to more efficiently service the region’s growing communities with essential infrastructure.
Council today (November 17) approved a review of the Local Government Infrastructure Plan (LGIP) in line with complementary work to make a new Planning Scheme at the November Ordinary meeting of Council.
Toowoomba Region Mayor Paul Antonio said the statutory update of the LGIP, which would be renamed the Toowoomba Region Infrastructure Plan (TRIP), would result in a plan to more efficiently cater for population and employment growth.
“Toowoomba Regional Council was the second local authority in Queensland after Logan city to adopt a new infrastructure plan into our Planning Scheme in 2017,” Mayor Antonio said.
“The Planning Act requires that local governments undertake a major review every five years. Starting a review now will allow us time to make improvements within that time.
