Infrastructure contributions planning scheme policies

The infrastructure contributions planning scheme policies (PSPs) apply for developments approved between 1 July 2007 and 30 June 2011. These policies were superseded with the introduction of adopted infrastructure charges. The policies remain applicable to development approved and conditioned to provide contributions under these planning scheme policies. For applications approved after 30 June 2011, refer to Brisbane adopted infrastructure charges.

Contributions under the planning schemes are based on infrastructure contribution units (ICUs).
