REPORT
1.   Background

On 23 October 2014, Council agreed to purchase the old Peregian Beach Bowls Club in Rufous
St Peregian Beach (Lot 94 on SP 137431).

Council already owns the land on David Low Way adjacent to the old Bowls Club on which the
Peregian Community House (Lot 1 on SP 215942) and Public Car Park (Lot 95 on SP 137431)
are situated.

At its Ordinary Meeting on 18 December 2014, Council agreed to establish an internal Project
Control Group (PCG) to oversee the development of a Rufous St Master Plan. The PCG has met
monthly since then to oversee the project.

In January 2015 the buildings on the old Bowls Club site were demolished due to their age and
asbestos related issues.

                                                                                   Page 3 of 81
