A temporary local planning instrument will go before council next week to move ahead with the proposal, which will allow residential buildings in the area to reach the 274-metre aviation height limit. Brisbane Deputy Mayor Krista Adams said the proposal would give future developments a large enough parcel of land to build to the aviation limit, while ensuring they give back to the community.The council's plan for the Kurilpa precinct will go before council next week so a temporary local planning instrument is created, before a formal change is later made to the City Plan.
"The reason for that is because the buildings will be sustainable, but also people's mode of travel around will be sustainable.Mr Schrinner said there was "incredible demand" for housing in the city, with Brisbane in urgent need of new homes for residents to live in.
