City Pulse

Welcome to Logan City Council’s Economic Development City Pulse.

Logan City Council understands the importance of accurate and up to date land use, development, and building activity data. Council has therefore invested in a dedicated Research and Monitoring Unit being established in the Economic Development and Strategy Branch, with a core function of monitoring growth and key indicators of growth across the City.

This edition of City Pulse has been reviewed and updated as at March 2025. This information includes available development activity data from 2010/11 through to 2024/25 (Part-year July – December 2024).

City Pulse contains the following information:
