With the launch of the Gold Coast City Plan Version 12, we are reminded that the development process is ever-changing. With this latest amendment, we can expect “consequential changes to mapping layers”, such as Land Zone and Use Changes as stated by the City of Gold Coast. Across the Gold Coast, changes to the following Zones have been made; Low to High Industry, Rural Residential, and Low to Medium Density Residential lands.

In summary, Version 12 is mainly concerned with the tidying up of boundaries and implementing a few land use changes to select parcels of land. If you are curious have a look at the City of Gold Coast Planning and Development Alert – Version 12 City Plan.

For how this may impact you property within the city, please feel free to enquire with us, or if you have any questions regarding the development process or your property’s potential. All site reviews are completely free so if you have any questions or just want to explore your options, please get in touch and we hope to help you soon!

I would like to thank you for your services with the two site visits to my property to identify the property boundary over the last two weeks.

I’d like to provide some feedback, in that you were both were really helpful, professional and communicative through the process, and I appreciated you talking me through some of the observations/findings whilst you were here.

Kurt Thompson

Impressed with Arnold Development Consultant high level of service and proactive approach.

We engaged Arnold Development Consultants to do the survey work for our subdivision and have been impressed with their high level of service and proactive approach not only doing the survey work, but seeing the lot sealing process through to its completion. They were always willing to go above and beyond and we really appreciated their experience and guidance through this process. You have been fantastic and we will definitely be back for future survey work.
