Buildings Applications Register

Gold Coast Airport is committed to driving sustainable investment and regional development through well-managed infrastructure growth. All land use planning and building works at the airport fall under the Airports Act 1996 and the Airports (Building Control) Regulations 2025. Any building activity must be approved by the Airport Building Controller (ABC).

 

To guide stakeholders and investors, we’ve developed clear Development Guidelines aligned with the airport’s Master Plan, outlining application processes and planning objectives for future development.
