About the project

The Torquay - Jan Juc RELS is a land use planning and economic strategy that seeks to position Torquay and Jan Juc to make the most of opportunities over the period 2020 – 2036.

The Strategy focuses on:

  • supply and demand
  • floor space requirements
  • land use
  • the role and the function of the commercial areas. 

The RELS is supported by a 2020 Background Report(PDF, 4MB) which provides the detailed context and technical analysis to underpin the strategy.
