  • Apartments / use Material Change of Use (Development Permit) + Carry out Building Work (Preliminary Approval under s241) — specific use not stated in this extension packet neutralThis is a paperwork extension of an unbuilt approval, not new development news — the only signal worth noting is that the project has been kept alive but not commenced.
  • Apartments / use 3-storey Motor showroom neutralA 3-storey motor showroom with office and low-impact industry on a busy Musgrave Rd / Kelvin Grove Rd corner: a fitting commercial use for this mixed-use/industry corridor that does little to move surrounding residential desirability either way.

Flood

Does Red Hill flood? It's a street-by-street question.

A suburb-wide flood figure hides the only answer that matters: whether the specific lot you are looking at sits inside a mapped overlay.

Where we're straight with you
We hold the parcel-level flood overlay here.

Flood overlays for Brisbane are in our map. The per-lot answer (in or out of the overlay) is on the address report, not a suburb average.
