The Development Industry Reference Group has not met since May 2015 and is no longer in effect.
There are no current plans for a development industry reference group to reconvene.
Background
The Redland Development Industry Reference Group was a group of development industry professionals working with Council to improve our processes.
The Industry Reference Group was established in 2013 after it was noted as future action by Council in a 20 May 2011 forum report published on Council’s website in the third of the four Council hosted Industry Forums. The Forum was attended by 60 industry and council representatives.
Reference groups are one of the standard mechanisms which help officers better understand and work with their communities. Similar Industry Reference groups have been established by other Councils including Brisbane City, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast. Group membership was invited by expression of interest from development industry companies and professional industry groups. Members of the Development Industry Reference Group are included in the Terms of Reference.
