ORDINARY MEETING AGENDA                                                                    21 JULY 2022


for housing in Noosa Shire through to 2041 and provides for regular monitoring and review to ensure
our actions and interventions advance us towards meeting the objectives therein, to enable housing
choice, diversity and affordability to meet the current and future needs of the community.
Underpinning the success of the strategy will be the need for strong partnerships with the State
Government, with Community Housing providers, private housing developers and with the Noosa
Community. In essence, the Strategy seeks to ensure there is the right amount of housing of the
right type and size, in the right place and with the right tenure, for our community.
Given the actions undertaken by Noosa Council to address what is now recognised as a State wide
housing crisis, it is recommended for consideration at the LGAQ Conference that this approach is
advocated to the State Government of Queensland on a whole of State basis. The HNA is the first
step to fully understand the demand and adapt short to medium solutions in addressing the ongoing
crisis across Queensland.
The LGAQ Motions template will be completed for submission upon resolution of Noosa
Council.
