Have your say on the future of the Rockhampton Region Planning Scheme

Published on 22 October 2025

Rockhampton Regional Council is entering the next phase of its major review of the Rockhampton Region Planning Scheme - and your input is a vital part of the process.

Council is preparing a major amendment to the current scheme and is inviting community feedback during the early consultation phase.

This is your chance to tell us what’s working, what’s outdated, and what could be improved as your input will help shape how our region grows and develops into the future.

We want to know how easy the current scheme is to use, what parts might need improvement, whether it reflects our region’s long-term goals, and any other ideas you’d like to share.

You can find out more and have your say by visiting one of Council’s upcoming Planning Scheme Pop-up Stalls across the region:
