Draft Canungra town centre master plan to go out for community consultation
Scenic Rim Regional Council has endorsed the draft Canungra Town Centre Master Plan for public consultation, opening the next stage of planning for the town centre.
A draft master plan for Canungra's town centre will be released for community consultation after Scenic Rim Regional Council backed the document at its February ordinary meeting.
The decision was recorded in the council's 25 February 2026 public minutes as a late item, listed as progress to community consultation for the Canungra master plan committee.
For Canungra residents and businesses, the immediate change is that there will be a formal chance to comment on future planning for the town centre. The minutes do not set out the consultation dates or the detail of the draft plan, but they do confirm council has endorsed the draft for that public step.
The endorsement sits among several planning and infrastructure matters considered at the meeting, including a deferral of the proposed Integrated Transport Plan to a future ordinary meeting and an amended resolution on Grahams Dip Road.
Canungra was also mentioned earlier in the meeting in a condolence notice for Jesse Daniels of Benobble, though that was separate from the planning item.
The next step is consultation on the draft Canungra Town Centre Master Plan. The minutes identify that as the stage following the endorsement on 25 February.
Council met at its Beaudesert chambers for the ordinary meeting, which began at 9am, was adjourned at 10.42am and resumed at 11am.
