            QUESTION 2.
            The community rejected the Noosaville Foreshore Infrastructure Master Plan
            released in June 2024, and it had to be redrafted. How much will the redraft of the
            Noosaville Foreshore Infrastructure Master Plan cost?

            Response provided by Acting Director Infrastructure Services, Shaun Walsh
            Firstly, the community had differing reactions to the draft Noosaville Foreshore
            Infrastructure Master Plan. Many certainly did not appreciate the loss of
            carparking, overly modern design approach, concerns for the erosion
            management techniques as well as concerns for proposed changes to the tennis
            court and other spaces. Others in the community appreciated the widening of
            footpaths to make them safer, the new proposed toilet block, refreshed playground
            equipment and natural approach to Chaplin Park.

            The redrafting of the Master Plan is budgeted for an additional $209,401 including
            consultants, staff time and on costs. As noted above the Noosaville Foreshore is
            a large complex space, and the infrastructure master plan provides a valuable
            platform for grant infrastructure.

            Master Planning can be a difficult process to ensure appreciation of the issues and
            community consensus on the design direction moving forward. Council deeply
