In accordance with section 20 of the Planning Act 2016 and Chapter 2, Part 2, section 6 of the Minister’s Guidelines and Rules, Moreton Bay City Council gives notice that on 9 October 2024 it adopted “Moreton Bay Regional Council Planning Scheme Amendment - Minor Amendment No. 3 - Voluntary Home Buy Back Program Zoning Updates” (adopted amendment). The adopted amendment is a minor amendment to the Moreton Bay Regional Council Planning Scheme Version 6 that will come into effect on 30 October 2024 as part of the Moreton Bay Regional Council Planning Scheme Version 7.
