Work in the housing industry?

Toowoomba Regional Council is in the next stage of engagement to inform our Local Housing Action Plan. We want to hear from those in the housing industry (planners, developers, architects, builders, real estate and more). Your feedback will help guide Council's decisions that help balance livability, sustainability, and market realities when looking to meet our evolving housing needs.

Feedback will be open to 3 October 2025.

Update June 2025
