The City That Says YES As one of Australia’s fastest-growing cities we face a range of challenges – and opportunities – over coming years.
I
mproving public transport, expanding the economy, protecting our green and open space and supporting the city’s 80,700 registered small businesses are all key priorities of the City. Over the past 70 years, the narrative about the Gold Coast has changed. Historically, we were known as a great family holiday destination as well as a place for people to retire. We were also known as a construction hot spot with high rise developments changing our coastal skyline. Today, we are much more than just a fantastic holiday destination. Our city storybook is now about world-leading technology, digital innovation, film making, high growth industries, major events, sport, tourism and construction. That is the modern Gold Coast story and since 2012 when I was first elected, the Gold Coast has changed significantly. Our economy has grown from $30 billion to more than $50 billion. Our population has grown from 490,000 to more than 700,000 and is heading towards one million people by the mid-2040s. The visitor economy is now worth $8.9 billion and our exports have grown significantly with manufacturing now representing 28 percent of our annual exports. Across the city, 75 cranes are on the skyline and our city-shaping project pipeline is valued at $6 billion.
PUBLISHER ADV Collab www.advcollab.com.au
That is the opportunity we face and today, we are becoming known as a city that says YES. Saying yes is more than a mindset. It is how the city turns optimism into opportunity and ambition into progress. The Olympic and Paralympic Games in 2032 will be a defining moment, but our opportunity goes well beyond sport. This is a city with momentum. A city investing in stronger infrastructure, better-connected precincts, more homes, deeper skills, greater global connections and a more diversified economy. Today’s Gold Coast is about a story of confidence, momentum and ambition, backed by compelling evidence. My message to locals and new residents is: bring your ideas to fruition. Bring your business. Bring your capital. Bring your family. The default answer is yes.
Tom Tate Mayor Gold Coast

Specialising in Palm Meadows for over 20 years
After a holiday to the Gold Coast 40 years ago, John fell in love with the area and made the decision to live here. Specialising in the Palm Meadows property market for the past 20 years, John prides himself on his ability to bring together both the buyer and seller in such a way that both parties not only achieve their desired goals but positively enjoyed the process. John attributes his ability to connect with people and quickly build rapport, largely down to his previous past experience within the retail sector. As an interior designer and decorator, John founded and opened 8 home wares and interior design stores all located in prime retail positions throughout Melbourne. Working closely with his clients to successfully create and design their dream home, not only involved a superior eye for detail but required John to engage elevated communication skills and to quickly develop close personal connections. Utilising his past experiences and refined skills, along with his natural personable approach, is not only John’s defining difference as an agent but is the cornerstone to John’s continued positive outcomes and consistent client referrals. John is without a doubt the leading agent in the area and holds the record for the highest sale price for each of the estates in Palm Meadows with single allotment homes.
