2020-10-12 GC Agenda - Item 9 - Attachment 1 - Aircraft Noise Ombudsman Report - Investigation

5.11 Noosa Council advised the ANO that the Noosa population had changed
     significantly in the preceding five years:

                  Council has tracked our population turnover for at least twenty years using two different
                  information sources – ABS census statistics and electoral rolls. Both have produced
                  statistically consistent results in terms of our population churn in Noosa - approximately
                  10% per year. This means that for every four years, there is approximately 40%
                  population churn rising to 50% every five years.

5.12 The SEP included a map and specified its targeted consultation area in detail:

                  Airservices will provide on-site community specific consultation with communities to the
                  north-west of the airport, where the proposed design varies from the original design
                  concept. This consultation will be in addition to supporting the Sunshine Coast Council
                  led engagements.

                  Communities to the north-west where increased overflights associated with proposed
                  flight paths compared to the EIS include Cooroy Mountain, Cooran, Pomona, Doonan,
                  Pinbarren, Traveston, Cootharaba and Verrierdale. 23
