Subdividing land requires council approval and must meet planning scheme standards for lot size, access, infrastructure, and zoning to ensure orderly and compliant development.
Heritage and character considerations aim to conserve Toowoomba’s cultural history by applying overlays that protect significant buildings, streetscapes, and neighbourhoods with distinctive architectural or historical value.
Zoning and land use approvals confirm whether proposed developments align with planning scheme rules, ensuring appropriate use of land, compliance with overlays, and compatibility with surrounding areas.
