ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES                                                      20 MARCH 2025


            capture background data of the existing infrastructure condition.
            Dust
            Regarding dust monitoring, the environmental consultant confirms dust deposition
            from both natural and man-made sources would already affect these houses to
            some extent. The remediation works have been designed to minimise and manage
            dust. The environmental consultant confirms it is common for dust to be
            monitored, and Council confirms dust monitoring will be included in the contract
            for this work, and will be carried out for the duration of this project.
            Roof dust, roof gutter, and rainwater tank testing and analysis are proposed to be
            carried out as part of this project on a subset of 10 houses adjoining the
            site. Background testing (pre-remediation works) of roofs, gutters, and rainwater
            tanks would be expected to detect some pre-existing toxins (likely at low and
            acceptable levels). Proposed roof dust, roof gutter, and rainwater tank testing and
            analysis will be carried out before, during, and after remediation of the site. Any
            roof, gutter, or rainwater tank testing would need to be with the approval of the
            homeowner/resident, and it would need to be agreed that the results of any
            testing/monitoring will be shared. A tender for the remediation and civil works will
            soon be issued pending finalisation of the engineering drawings and associated
            documents.

            QUESTION 2
            Subject: 62 Lake Macdonald Drive - In its financial arrangement with Coast2Bay,
            does Council have a penalty-free exit clause if the cost to do remediation and
            operational site works to prepare the subdivision (including the Lot 1 C2B site)
            exceeds Council’s estimates? We do not want to see Council corner itself
            financially trying to make this all happen given the range of potential unknowns
            that may increase project cost and decrease the project's economic viability. Thank
            you.
            Response provided by Kim Rawlings Director Strategy and Environment
            The contract for sale between Council and C2B for proposed Lot 1 on 62 Lake
            Macdonald Dr Cooroy is based on the executed Heads of Agreement (HoA)
            between Council and C2B .The HoA sets out a range of conditions including
            clauses that protect Council interests.



   8.5.     NICK COOKE

            QUESTION 1
            Why are new actions, like "Accommodation options for visitors" and "Investigate
            future commercial and industrial land for Pomona," being added to the final Place
            Plan in response to a single submission, such as one calling for "a world class 4
            or 5-star enviro-resort similar to Kingfisher Bay Resort on K’gari," when those new
            actions haven't gone through the first two rounds of consultation and thus haven't
            gone through the community prioritisation and scrutiny phase?
            Response provided by Kim Rawlings Director Strategy and Environment
            As part of the community engagement council made a commitment to capture all
            suggested actions from the community throughout the process. Those actions that
            did not get identified as priority actions in the main sections of the Plan have been
            captured in Appendix B. These additional actions have been included in Appendix
            B. When the Place plan is to be reviewed all these Actions in appendix B will be
            presented back to the community to be re-tested and then be prioritised. These
            additional actions are not included in Part B as priority actions.

            QUESTION 2
            Why is the 'Kin Kin Quarry' not explicitly identified or mentioned in the Place Plan,
