Planning creates great places for people to live, work and play. Because of this, local communities benefit the most from good planning.
This toolkit supports the delivery of effective community engagement in plan-making throughout Queensland. It aims to help local governments to develop community engagement strategies for:
- preparing new local planning instruments
- amending existing local planning instruments.
Accordingly, the toolkit is intended to support local governments prepare a communications strategy under the Minister’s Guidelines and Rules (MGR) for plan-making. The toolkit is a non-statutory set of practical tools and information intended to support local governments meet their requirements to engage with the community, as outlined in the MGR. It is also intended to support community members and stakeholders in their interactions with the plan-making process.
