Gold Coast approves 68-dwelling project in Coomera

A 68-dwelling residential development in Coomera has been approved by the City of Gold Coast, with councillors backing a development permit for a material change of use subject to conditions and amended approved plans.

The approval was adopted at the council's 17 February 2026 meeting through a recommendation from the Planning and Regulation Committee, as recorded in the public minutes.

The minutes do not set out further site detail in the extract provided, but the decision confirms the project can proceed in an amended form under council's conditions. The item was listed as an approval for 68 multiple dwellings.

For nearby residents, the approval is relevant because it adds another medium-density housing project to Coomera, a growth area already facing ongoing development change. The minutes support local relevance around neighbourhood change and residential density, but do not include extra detail on traffic, design or staging for this particular application.

The adopted wording shows the approval was not unconditional. Council approved the permit with conditions and amended approved plans, meaning the development must proceed in line with those requirements.

The same meeting also approved a separate, larger mixed-use apartment development at Urbana Boulevard, Coomera, but this 68-dwelling decision was a distinct planning item.

The minutes identify the approval as one of several planning and infrastructure matters settled at the February council meeting, alongside petitions, foreshore planning and budget-related business.
