Logan Plan
About Logan Plan
Logan Plan is our proposed new planning scheme (town plan) to guide future land use and development in our fast growing city. It’s about zoning, managing growth in existing and emerging areas of our city, housing and density in the right places, land for business and jobs, our activity centres and economy, design, managing natural hazards, protecting what we value (like our lifestyle, environment and heritage) and lots more.
You can have your say on our draft plan between Monday 1 September and midnight on Friday 31 October 2025. Learn more below.

Why is the Logan Plan needed?
Over the next 15 years Logan will be one of the fastest growing areas in South East Queensland. Our planning scheme helps us manage this growth by:
- guiding what can be built where, supporting jobs and providing housing choice
- planning the delivery of infrastructure (like roads, parks, water and community facilities)
- protecting what we value in our city, like our environment, safety and heritage.
All councils are required to review their planning schemes within 10 years and decide whether to amend or replace them. Since Logan’s current planning scheme started in May 2015, there have been many changes affecting our city, our region and the way we live, work, learn, play and move about.
We are preparing a new planning scheme to respond to these and other emerging changes and shape Logan’s future. Logan Plan will help us keep what’s working well and improve what could be working better. It will focus on:
- managing growth, housing choice and job opportunities in both the established and newer areas of our city
- the design of our buildings, streets and landscapes, taking into account factors like sustainability and safety
- improving how we manage and respond to natural hazards like flooding, taking a risk-based approach that provides stronger rules in higher risk areas and considers the impact of climate change (as required by State policy)
- protecting and enhancing our environmental values, like our green spaces, waterways and wildlife.
