Project Location

The proposed project must be delivered within the nominated City of Gold Coast Division and be located within the City of Gold Coast local government area.

The local Councillor for the Division in which the project is located is a key stakeholder in the assessment process and may choose to support or not support the project. For projects that provide a community benefit for more then one Division, please select Whole of City (Mayor).

If you are unsure which City of Gold Coast Division your project is located in, you can identify the correct Division by entering the project address on the Electoral Commission Queensland website.

By submitting this application, you confirm that the project is located within the nominated Division. Applications that are found to be located outside the nominated Division, or contain incorrect divisional information, may be deemed ineligible and may not proceed to assessment.

Response required.
