The Noosa Story
The story of Noosa’s development and
attachment to core community and
environmental values is a unique one.
Council will work with stakeholders to capture
and document this contemporary heritage
including the stories and histories of local
people from the period from 1960 to de-
amalgamation. The material will be used by
stakeholders to develop engaging exhibitions,
displays and content to tell the unique Noosa
story.
