3.   Highlighted Projects - Gympie Terrace foreshore, barbecue renewals

With the limited number of projects which have been completed to date, the Gympie Terrace
Foreshore barbecue renewals project has been identified as a suitable project to highlight.

The old barbecue units were originally installed in early 2000 and were identified for renewal due
to their poor condition and ongoing electrical repair costs. The new replacement double plate
barbecues have a stainless steel structure and bench top and are designed to be energy efficient
with low power consumption with a 28 minutes timing cycle providing ample cooking time.

A total of four barbecues have been renewed along the Gympie Terrace foreshore park between
Cloudsley Street and Thomas Street, Noosaville. It is proposed that the remaining seven older
barbecues will be renewed in the 2015/2016 capital program.




4.   Summary

A lower than expected spend of $ 674,390 (includes actuals & commitments) for the year to date
is due to the focus on the planning and design phases where costs for these are significantly less
in comparison to the construction phase. The overall planning for delivery of the capital program
remains on target with 68 of the total 110 projects commenced. There will be an increase in
construction activities over the next 3 months which will also coincide with a re-profiling of the
timing of the budget spend. This financial position will be further improved with the
commencement of the whole of shire reseal program and the gravel road re-sheeting program.
These works are expected to be reflected when the next update is due in December.
