6.6        IMPLICATIONS FOR FACILITATING INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICES
It is highly likely that supporting infrastructure and services surrounding the proposed site will require upgrades. At
this stage, these costs are unknown and any additional capital and operating costs associated with these upgrades
will further deteriorate Council’s operating position and debt levels.


6.7        NEW ENTITIES/RESOURCES
No account has been made for any new entities as proposed by CCIQ Noosa as being desirable, which included
Events Noosa (to manage the flow of events into the facility, in addition to maintaining customer relationships pre
and post event) and a Speakers Bureau. Further, no account has been made for the appointment of venue
management at the start of design and construct phase and a senior sales executive two years in advance of facility
completion as proposed by CCIQ Noosa.
