Lord Mayor's message
What makes a city so great, is its plans for the future. We have big, bold plans for Brisbane that will better our lifestyle and help us pull through the current economic crisis.
We want to help more Brisbane residents achieve the dream of home ownership. From 1 October, we are offering eligible residents a one-year, 100% rates rebate on newly built homes. This means more money into residents’ back pockets to save and spend on things that matter most.
Alongside major city-shaping projects like our new green bridges and the all-electric, turn-up-and-go Brisbane Metro, we’re focusing on improving life in the suburbs.
We’re delivering safer road upgrades, investing in new and improved parks and supporting community groups facilities with upgrades.
Our Village Precincts Project upgrades are getting more customers to visit their local shopping precincts – Manly and West Ashgrove precincts are next on the list to receive a facelift.
We can all do our part to support Brisbane businesses in their hour of need. Our ‘Local Buy’ initiative is ensuring 80% of procurement is spent with Brissie-based suppliers. Residents can help too, by continuing to buy local and investing money back into the local economy.
