Hi All,
I own an investment property on Hawthorne Road, Hawthorne Qld. The property is zoned LMR2 as per Brisbane city council's zoning map and is very close to the Hawthorne cinema.
I notice a lot of my neighbouring properties have been rented out as small offices, gym, cafe etc. However these properties are zoned either LMR or CR1 based on the BCC planning scheme.
Quite a few properties on Riding Road are also being leased/sold as commercial properties and none of them are actually zoned for commercial use.
As far as I understand a property zoned for residential use cannot be used for commercial purpose. Is there a way to obtain a commercial use permit from BCC? If yes, how much is it going to cost?
Thank you in advance for your help!
