Domain Maps

The purpose of Domains is to demonstrate that Gold Coast City is divided into land units with common characteristics, for the purposes of land use and development control. The term Domain identifies those areas of the City with a particular use mix or development character (or that have potential in this context) that will benefit from the application of consistent planning guidance and development control.

Domains provide for the distribution, mixing and segregation of different types of development. Each Domain provides for compatible development within identified parts of the City and segregates incompatible development. Importantly, each Domain includes planning measures to achieve the Gold Coast Planning Scheme 2003 Desired Environmental Outcomes (DEOs) ( 229kb).
