Consultation

External Consultation - Community & Stakeholder

Tewantin - Noosa Lions Club – Car park was slower than expected. Once again, Fred Spinks
was invaluable in getting the project under way after the wet weather, and we appreciated the
new signs which were a lot clearer than those that were previously in use.

Sunbus – Thanked Council

Free Holiday Buses Survey – refer to report section 5. Feedback Survey

Tourism Noosa – Lots of very positive feedback and a number of comments about how helpful
the passenger assistant was
