City Shape, Economic Transformation and Transport Committee – Wednesday 10 June 26 @ 9:00 am

The Logan City Council's City Shape, Economic Transformation and Transport Committee met on June 10, 2026, to discuss several development applications and infrastructure projects. Key procurement-related discussions included the approval of a residential subdivision development at School Road, Logan Reserve, with conditions addressing infrastructure and traffic concerns, despite some councilors expressing reservations about traffic impact assessments and flood risk. Another significant agenda item was the proposed material change of use for a place of worship and community use at Logan Reserve Road, which was also approved amid debate over traffic growth assumptions and community impact. The committee reviewed the upcoming federal Blackspot funding submissions for road safety improvements, highlighting ongoing and planned capital projects, with councilors discussing prioritization and funding challenges. Contract negotiations for major roadworks, including a new roundabout and road widening on Chambers Flat Road, were reported to be on track, with attention to cost factors such as oil price fluctuations. Motions related to flood planning policy and project approvals were passed unanimously or with majority support, reflecting a focus on balancing development growth with infrastructure capacity and community safety.
