      QUESTION 1
      Were the tender prices for the remediation work at 62 Lake Macdonald Drive, Cooroy
      matching the estimates?

      Response provided by Kim Rawlings, Director Strategy & Environment
      We are unable to comment on estimates at this time as Remediation and Subdivision Works
      are currently in a public tender process.

      QUESTION 2
      Is the funding for the remediation of 62 Lake Macdonald Drive, Cooroy coming from a grant,
      a loan or council reserves?

      Response provided by Kim Rawlings, Director Strategy & Environment
      As part of the Council resolution on 20 January 2025, council decided to “Support advancing
      the subdivision and remediation works subject to securing a loan facility, whilst continuing to
      actively pursue grant funding opportunities". Both avenues are still being pursued, Council
      has commenced with Queensland Treasury Corporation (QTC) regarding preparation for
      establishing a loan for this purpose. Grant applications and Expressions of Interest have
      been submitted to relevant State and Federal bodies and continue to be advanced as
      appropriate. We expect to hear a response regarding these applications for grant funding in
      the next month.
