RECOMMENDATION
That Council note the report by the Property Advisor – Commercial Property to the Services &
Organisation Committee Meeting dated 10 December 2019, and
A.                       Set fees and charges for the Boreen Point Campground to align with the cessation of the
                         end of the July 2021 Queensland school holidays; and
B.                       Adopt the Proposed General Cost Recovery Fees and Commercial Charges schedule for
                         Boreen Point Campground for the period ending Monday 11 July 2021 as detailed in the
                         tables contained within the report.


REPORT

Current fees and charges for the Boreen Point Campground apply until the end of the summer
peak season on 30 January 2021. Council maintains an ‘advance’ fees and charges schedule for
the parks to allow for forward booking of sites by customers. Twice yearly, Council reviews and
amends the fees as required to maintain the forward booking period. The purpose of this report is
to propose the adoption of fees and charges for a further 6 months to the end of the June - July
2021 school holiday period.

Boreen Point Campground tariffs are proposed to increase by 4.8% - 6.5% (where indicated in
Table 1), which is cost reflective (inflation and other increases relating to contract services and
utility cost increases) and ensures full cost pricing obligations are maintained.

                                     29 January 2021 to 11 July 2021 Fees and Charges Schedule
