We take a closer look at plans for Gulgan Village, a proposed new residential community near Brunswick Heads that could become Byron Shire's newest suburb.

Byron Shire Council is inviting public feedback on a suite of planning documents that will help shape the future of the development, which includes a mix of housing options, affordable housing, local services and supporting infrastructure.

Acting Land Use Manager Cameron Jewell explains what is being proposed, why the site has been identified for future housing and how community members can have their say on the plans.
