What the numbers say about Narangba
Across 10 decided dual-occupancy and duplex applications on Narangba properties, 8 were approved — an approval rate of 80%. That reflects a solid, though not automatic, track record for this kind of proposal. These are real, decided applications assessed by the Moreton Bay council, not estimates or modelling.

Individual applications vary widely with information requests, referrals and the assessment pathway that applies to the specific site.

About this data
These statistics summarise decided development applications recorded against Narangba properties in Moreton Bay council records, current as of 26 July 2026. Past decisions describe how comparable proposals have fared — they do not guarantee, and cannot predict, the outcome of any future application. Council assesses every application on its merits against the planning scheme that applies at the time. This page is general information, not planning or legal advice: what is achievable on a specific site depends on its zoning, overlays, lot dimensions and assessment pathway.
