Scenic Rim Regional Council invites members of the Canungra community and the wider Scenic Rim region to provide feedback on the Draft Canungra Town Centre Master Plan.

In 2025, Council endorsed the establishment of Town Centre Master Plan Committees for Canungra, Kalbar and Kooralbyn. These community-led committees were formed to provide local insight and strategic input into the development of long-term plans for each town centre.

Town centre master planning sets a long-term vision and strategic framework to guide the growth and evolution of each townn's heart. It focuses on creating thriving, inclusive places where people live, work, shop and connect, balancing growth with local character, infrastructure needs and community aspirations.

About the Canungra Town Centre Master Plan

The Canungra Town Centre Master Plan Committee, comprising local residents and chaired by Divisional Councillor Stephen Moriarty, has worked closely with Council to prepare a draft master plan that reflects a shared vision for the future of Canungra Town Centre.

This community-wide survey seeks feedback from the broader community to:

  • confirm the shared vision for the town centre,
  • prioritise themes and actions for Canungra, and
  • identify any gaps or opportunities for improvement.

Feedback received will inform refinements to the final master plan and help to ensure it aligns with community aspirations.

About Canungra

Canungra, nestled in the foothills of Lamington National Park, has grown into a lively tourism and service hub for the Scenic Rim.

The draft master plan sets out a vision for the Canungra Town Centre, with staged priorities to guide growth and plan for key infrastructure. The draft plan focuses on:

  • Streets and parking - continued investment in Canungra's streets and parking for improved amenities and safety for all
  • Connections - provide infrastructure which enables and encourages more walking and cycling trips for all
  • Community and spaces – provide high quality public spaces and community infrastructure
  • Culture and heritage - celebrating the region's heritage in strategic locations such as the town centre
  • Conservation and sustainability - continue to protect and embellish the region's natural environment
