EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The report seeks adoption of proposed General Cost Recovery Fees and Commercial Charges for
the Noosa Holiday Parks for the period from July 2022 to January 2023. The fees and charges are
reviewed every six (6) months as required to maintain a consistent annual forward booking period.

RECOMMENDATION
That Council note the report by the Property Advisor – Commercial Property to the General
Committee Meeting dated 18 October 2021 and:
A.      Set fees and charges for the Noosa Holiday Parks to align with the cessation of the end of
        the January 2023 Queensland school holidays; and
B.      Adopt the Proposed General Cost Recovery Fees and Commercial Charges schedule for
        Noosa Holiday Parks for the period ending Monday 23 January 2023 as detailed in the tables
        contained within the report.


REPORT
Current fees and charges for the Noosa Holiday Parks apply until 11 July 2022. Council maintains
an ‘advance’ fees and charges schedule for the parks to allow for forward booking of sites by
customers.

Twice yearly, Council reviews and amends the fees, including benchmarking and suitability
assessment of the fee and charge categories.

The purpose of this report is to propose the adoption of fees and charges for the Noosa Holiday
Parks for a further six (6) months to the end of the December 2022 – January 2023 school holiday
period, as indicated in Tables 1-4.
