A Provisional Priority Development Area (PPDA) is an interim planning tool used by the Queensland Government to enable early planning and consultation on strategically located land.

It allows draft planning controls to be tested with the community before any permanent planning framework is finalised.

The PPDA has been declared to support coordinated planning for underutilised State‑owned land in well‑located areas.

Economic Development Queensland (EDQ) is responsible for planning, coordinating infrastructure and assessing development within the PPDA under the Economic Development Act 2012.

Local government and State agencies continue to provide input on infrastructure, transport, environment and services.

The draft Provisional Land Use Plan (PLUP) sets the proposed planning framework for the PPDA. It includes:

• the overall vision
• development criteria across the PPDA
• precinct‑specific planning outcomes
• development assessment and infrastructure requirements

The draft PLUP guides the type, scale and form of development, rather than detailed building design.

EDQ is seeking feedback on the draft PLUP, including:

• the vision for each precinct
• building height, scale and design principles
• transport, movement and connectivity
• open space and public realm

Feedback will help refine the planning framework before next steps are determined.

Yes. Community feedback is an important input into planning decisions.

All submissions are reviewed alongside technical studies, State interests and policy requirements before the planning framework is finalised.

Feedback can influence planning outcomes such as building scale, interfaces, open space and connections.

Detailed building design is considered later through development applications and is not determined at the PPDA stage.

A PPDA is an interim planning stage and generally applies for up to three years.

The Queensland Government is focused on delivering more places for Queenslanders to call home.

The draft PLUP supports a range of housing outcomes. Opportunities for affordable housing will be considered through future development processes, partnerships and procurement approaches.

Yes. The community is encouraged to provide feedback on the draft PLUP during the public notification period, which runs from 1 – 19 June 2026.

You can have your say by making a submission via the submission portal, email or post. All feedback will be reviewed and considered by the Minister for Economic Development Queensland before the PLUP is finalised.

This Have Your Say page has been created so you can register for updates and track progress.

Submissions can be made to the Minister for Economic Development Queensland (MEDQ) during the public notification period, which runs from 1 – 19 June 2026.

You can lodge your submission via:

• Online submission portal
• Post:
  Economic Development Queensland
  GPO Box 2202

• Email:
  contact@edq.qld.gov.au

To ensure your submission is properly considered, it should:

• Be in writing (typed or handwritten).
• Be received during the public notification period (1 – 19 June 2026).
• Include your name and email address,
• Clearly describe your concerns or support, referencing specific sections of the draft PLUP where required.

By making a submission, you can share your views and help shape the PLUP for the Land Activation Program (SEQ Tranche 1) PPDA.

All properly made submissions will be reviewed and considered by EDQ and the Minister for Economic Development Queensland. Your feedback will help shape the PLUP and ensure it reflects community priorities.

Once finalised, the PLUP will guide development within the PPDA.

Future development proposals will be assessed against the PLUP and other relevant requirements, with further community updates provided as planning progresses.

The draft PLUP sets planning requirements to ensure development can safely and effectively manage impacts.

Detailed technical investigations, such as traffic, infrastructure and flood modelling, are undertaken at the development application stage.
