Development Incentive Scheme

A development incentive scheme has been introduced for the Cassowary Coast region, offering a 50 per cent to 100 per cent reduction in infrastructure charges for certain eligible developments.

The scheme applies to developments approved from 13 December 2016 and completed within two (2) years of the date of the approval taking effect.

It largely promotes commercial, industrial and tourism development in different parts of the region but also promotes some infill residential development.

The scheme has been introduced to help stimulate investment in the Cassowary Coast region. It is part of a broader investment incentives strategy being developed by Council.
