4.1. ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES DATED 20 FEBRUARY 2025
Council Resolution
Moved: Cr Frank Wilkie
Seconded: Cr Karen Finzel
That the Minutes of the Ordinary Meeting held on 20 February be received and
confirmed, with
A. The addition of the following words, highlighted below, to the Response to
Public Question Time 8.4 Q1 to Craig Vella as follows:
"Thank you for your question regarding the Go Noosa program and the
potential use of the Sustainable Transport Levy for boat ramp and parking
improvements. Firstly, to clarify, while the Sustainable Transport Levy is
budgeted to raise approximately $933,000 in the 2023/24 financial year, these
funds are allocated to various sustainable transport initiatives as outlined in
report. The Free Bus Service, while significant, does not account for the entire
levy amount. Following Council’s recent decision to cease the Free Weekend
Bus Services, options for the reallocation of these funds will be considered in
due course. However, under the existing levy framework, all funded initiatives
Page 3
ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES 20 MARCH 2025
must align with the primary objectives of sustainable transport management,
congestion reduction, and encouraging active and public transport use. The
Sustainable Transport Levy is not intended to fund infrastructure improvements
for private vehicle and boat trailer parking, including those at Hilton Esplanade
or other boat ramps in Noosa Shire. As outlined in Council’s Transport policy,
the levy is specifically designed to support initiatives such as public transport
services, park-and-ride facilities, intelligent transport systems, and congestion
management strategies. Council acknowledges the importance of boat ramp
facilities and associated parking for the community and note that the ‘on-land
component’ of the Hilton Esplanade boat ramp and parking area has been
identified for planning and design work in the 2025-26 Financial Year. Council
will also continue to explore funding opportunities for these desired upgrades.
We appreciate your engagement on this matter and encourage continued
community participation in shaping Noosa’s transport and infrastructure
priorities."
and
B. Update the 20 February 2025 Minutes accordingly.

8.1. KEN & DESLEY NIXON
QUESTION 1
Will Council implement regulated parking on the eastern side of Kingfisher Drive
North of Brolga Place?
Response provided by Shaun Walsh Director Infrastructure Services
Noosa Council is currently developing a Parking Management Plan, a key initiative
under the Noosa Corporate Plan, designed to ensure equitable, sustainable,
adaptable, and efficient parking and kerbside management that can be applied to
centres across the Shire that are experiencing parking issues. This plan will
establish a framework and clear guidelines for managing both kerbside and off-
street parking, balancing capacity, demand, and community needs while providing
a structured framework for evaluating future parking requests. The plan is being
developed through a multi-stage process, including data collection, preparation of
a decision matrix and kerbside hierarchy, feasibility studies, and stakeholder
engagement. It is expected to be finalised in 2025. The outcomes of this plan will
help assess parking demand in the area and identify the most effective
management techniques to support the community and local businesses. Council
is aware of critical parking issues around the Peregian Beach village, and will use
your submission to help inform the Parking Management Plan

ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES 20 MARCH 2025
QUESTION 2
Will Council provide a few more sets of bollards along the eastern side of
Kingfisher Drive, similar to those that have been in place for many years adjacent
to Brolga Place?
Response provided by Shaun Walsh Director Infrastructure Services
The traffic controls along Kingfisher Drive were placed many years near ago to
Brolga Place and are a mixture of bollards, white and red delineator posts and
boulders. As outlined above, assessment of new controls would await the Parking
Management Plan and Framework to provide a consistent set of guiding principles
that can be applied across the shire. Any new controls are also regulated by
Austroads Guidelines and Australian Standards AS 1742.2 (Traffic Control
Devices for General Use) & AS 1906.2 (Retroreflective Devices for Road Traffic
Control).
8.2. PATRICIA (PAT) SPICER
QUESTION 1
In the council development application for expansion of the cemetery in 2008, a
vegetated buffer zone was included on all perimeter boundaries of the plan for the
cemetery. This included Lake Macdonald Drive boundary. The Cooroy Cemetery
Management Plan repeatedly refers to the highly attractive and strong sense of
enclosure and privacy that is generated by the surrounding perimeter of mature
vegetation, especially the mature camphor laurels, pines and eucalypts to the
southern, western and northern boundaries and the mature pine plantation to the
eastern boundary. These statements are made in 8.2, policy 33, 9.2, 9.4, policy 38
to list a few. Council’s revised subdivision plan appears to be an artist’s impression
as the plan shows the open space between Lot 2 and 3 joins the full angled section
of my fenceline which is inaccurate as the open space is 20m wide and this
fenceline is 29.5m. Open space is not a substitute for a buffer. As council is going
to remove most of the vegetation to the east of the existing cemetery as well as to
the south and north, how does council intend to address this improvident planning
of no buffer zone on the plans of the proposed subdivision and the boundary of the
land being set aside for cemetery use (Lot 100 and proposed Lot 1 and 2), on Lake
Macdonald Drive for Lot 100 and the perimeter of Lot 3 on the southern side and
western side as well as privacy fencing on the western side where this land shares
a boundary with Lot 1 SP 118458 (my boundary) to ensure amenity for all residents
as a matter of urgency
Response provided by Kim Rawlings Director Strategy and Environment
The revised subdivision plan provides the indicative layout of the lots. The full
engineered project drawings are being finalised by the consultants in preparation
for the upcoming tender process. Consultation with cemetery planning staff has
occurred during all stages of this project and continues to regularly occur.
Remediation of the lots will occur to the extent necessary to satisfy relevant
environmental regulations to be able to remove the lots from the Environmental
Management Register. Native trees on site will be retained where possible, noting
some Gympie Messmate trees may need to be trimmed or removed if they are
unsafe, or have suffered previous damage from storms. A native tree survey has
been undertaken to inform this. The intention is the cemetery will not lose amenity
from this project, with all site revegetation to occur in accordance with the
Landscape Management Plan which will form part of the broad tender
documents. All landscaping and revegetation work will consist of suitable local
native species.

ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES 20 MARCH 2025
QUESTION 2
In the Contamination report, a second round of land fill gas monitoring is to be
carried out. At the site meeting on 2 December 2024 with the Environmental
Consultant, a point was made by a resident that in the report it suggests a second
round of land fill gas monitoring would occur in Spring. The Environmental
consultant, Andrew Winters, said that the monitoring will happen and that he was
obliged to satisfy the government guidelines to do a second round of land fill gas
monitoring when it is a bit drier and warmer in case the gas is generated and picked
up. As Spring has passed, when will council engage the consultant to carry out
this work prior to the remediation of the site commencing?
Response provided by Kim Rawlings Director Strategy and Environment
As per government guidelines, it is a requirement to do two rounds of land fill gas
monitoring. Council has already engaged the Consultant to do this work. The first
test was carried out during last winter when the soil was quite damp. The
consultant is in communication with the Contaminated Land Auditor regarding
timing of the 2nd test. The intention is to carry this out once the site dries out
sufficiently. This is anticipated to occur early to mid-Autumn.
8.3. RHEA DEN BRAASEM
QUESTION 1
In regards to stormwater on the 62 Lake MacDonald site, our steering committee
has stressed on numerous occasions that the removal of 2200 trees is going to
have an immediate worsening effect of stormwater flow due to a lack of canopy to
help slow this down. We also don’t see how any storm water controls in the plan
can be implemented before or during remediation as the road that is to drain water
from lot 1 and 2 will not be built yet and any measure applied will involve digging
up ground before the trees are removed and before the ground is remediated. We
are extremely concerned, if the remediation and subdivision go ahead, with how
the storm water will be managed for the whole site before the loss of forest canopy,
during remediation and on LOT 3 after subdivision. Do council have a plan for this
and what is it?
Response provided by Kim Rawlings Director Strategy and Environment
The issues raised are not unique to the subject site and are relatively standard
considerations for all subdivision / land development works. Stormwater and
rainfall runoff will be managed in accordance with the regulatory framework. Noosa
Council design consultants for the works, Covey’s Engineer Associates, have
developed an initial stormwater management and erosion & sediment control
requirement plan to be implemented for the works. As part of the requirements for
the construction works the Contractor to be engaged will also be required to
develop and prepare a Construction Environmental Management Plan,
Stormwater Management Plan and an Erosion and Sedimentation Plan for all
stages of the works (e.g. removal of trees, remediation of the Lots and all
associated road/civil/landscaping works). It will also be required for the Erosion
and Sedimentation Plan to be prepared, reviewed, and approved by a Certified
Professional in Erosion & Sediment Control.
QUESTION 2
In regards to conservation of natural resources on the site there are two aspects
in question. Why is the stream fed waterway surrounded by native vegetation (that
was referred to as having ecological significance in Noosa Council’s ecological
report for the site) not being considered in any way on plans for this site? And can
Council guarantee that the Gympie Messmates (largely on Lot 100) will be
conserved?
Page 6
ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES 20 MARCH 2025
Response provided by Kim Rawlings Director Strategy and Environment
As demonstrated by the Biodiversity Overlay, the tree preservation local law and
a broad range of environmental and ecological activities regularly undertaken by
the organisation, Council is committed to conserving natural resources and
retaining areas of ecological significance where possible and practical. The
subdivision has been assessed against several assessment frameworks and
determined to be compliant. An ecological report (available via the Council
website) was commissioned by Council to assess the site for ecological
significance. The gully was specifically considered as part of the exploration of the
site. Historical aerial mapping indicates this area provided general overland flow
down to the main waterway until the Dianella Ct residential subdivision was
created. This area currently discharges into a pipe which can be subject to
blockage issues. As well as providing access to the rear of the property, the
revised subdivision plan acts to improve site drainage and reduce
blockage/overflow issues on the site. In addition to the approximately 2,000 pine
trees, there is some scattered native vegetation across the site, including Gympie
Messmates, which will be retained where possible, although some are likely to be
removed as part of the remediation or subdivision works. It is the intent to retain
as much native vegetation on site as possible. The screening trees along the
northern boundary of the cemetery are likely to be retained along with some of the
screening hedge along Lake Macdonald Drive. New native tree plantings
throughout the subdivision will offset the removal of the existing native trees.
8.4. PAUL NOONAN
QUESTION 1
Subject: 62 Lake Macdonald Drive - Late last year Council committed to conduct
roof and water tank cleaning at surrounding homes during and after site works (as
necessary). Is Council planning to undertake professional 'background' data
collection in the adjoining residential area and cemetery before site work starts?
This would be a sensible step to inform project and health risk decision making in
a range of scenarios:
1) vibration monitors on homes and graves,
2) noise monitoring,
(Considering the 62LMD contaminants of concern)
3) dust monitoring - both nuisance, and respirable (PM10 and PM2.5 particulates).
4) roof dust analysis
5) rainwater tank water testing
Thank you
Response provided by Kim Rawlings Director Strategy and Environment
Resident, worker, and community safety are of the highest priority in carrying out
this work. Site remediation is highly regulated and will be overseen by a qualified
and experienced specialist.
Vibration and Noise Monitoring
Both vibration and noise monitoring is proposed to be undertaken by the Principal
Remediation and Construction Contractor throughout the duration of the works, in
accordance with the Department of Transport and Main Roads construction
management specification for the monitoring and controlling of Noise and Vibration
to ensure the site’s surrounding sensitive receptors are not adversely impacted
upon. Sensitive receptors include the site’s surrounding residential properties
along Dianella Court, Lake Macdonald Drive and Kauri Street as well as all assets
and infrastructure (e.g. burial sites, buildings) located within the Cooroy Cemetery
site. A dilapidation report will also be undertaken on the sites surrounding
infrastructure and sensitive receptors, prior to the works commencing on site to
Page 7
ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES 20 MARCH 2025
capture background data of the existing infrastructure condition.
Dust
Regarding dust monitoring, the environmental consultant confirms dust deposition
from both natural and man-made sources would already affect these houses to
some extent. The remediation works have been designed to minimise and manage
dust. The environmental consultant confirms it is common for dust to be
monitored, and Council confirms dust monitoring will be included in the contract
for this work, and will be carried out for the duration of this project.
Roof dust, roof gutter, and rainwater tank testing and analysis are proposed to be
carried out as part of this project on a subset of 10 houses adjoining the
site. Background testing (pre-remediation works) of roofs, gutters, and rainwater
tanks would be expected to detect some pre-existing toxins (likely at low and
acceptable levels). Proposed roof dust, roof gutter, and rainwater tank testing and
analysis will be carried out before, during, and after remediation of the site. Any
roof, gutter, or rainwater tank testing would need to be with the approval of the
homeowner/resident, and it would need to be agreed that the results of any
testing/monitoring will be shared. A tender for the remediation and civil works will
soon be issued pending finalisation of the engineering drawings and associated
documents.
QUESTION 2
Subject: 62 Lake Macdonald Drive - In its financial arrangement with Coast2Bay,
does Council have a penalty-free exit clause if the cost to do remediation and
operational site works to prepare the subdivision (including the Lot 1 C2B site)
exceeds Council’s estimates? We do not want to see Council corner itself
financially trying to make this all happen given the range of potential unknowns
that may increase project cost and decrease the project's economic viability. Thank
you.
Response provided by Kim Rawlings Director Strategy and Environment
The contract for sale between Council and C2B for proposed Lot 1 on 62 Lake
Macdonald Dr Cooroy is based on the executed Heads of Agreement (HoA)
between Council and C2B .The HoA sets out a range of conditions including
clauses that protect Council interests.
8.5. NICK COOKE
QUESTION 1
Why are new actions, like "Accommodation options for visitors" and "Investigate
future commercial and industrial land for Pomona," being added to the final Place
Plan in response to a single submission, such as one calling for "a world class 4
or 5-star enviro-resort similar to Kingfisher Bay Resort on K’gari," when those new
actions haven't gone through the first two rounds of consultation and thus haven't
gone through the community prioritisation and scrutiny phase?
Response provided by Kim Rawlings Director Strategy and Environment
As part of the community engagement council made a commitment to capture all
suggested actions from the community throughout the process. Those actions that
did not get identified as priority actions in the main sections of the Plan have been
captured in Appendix B. These additional actions have been included in Appendix
B. When the Place plan is to be reviewed all these Actions in appendix B will be
presented back to the community to be re-tested and then be prioritised. These
additional actions are not included in Part B as priority actions.
QUESTION 2
Why is the 'Kin Kin Quarry' not explicitly identified or mentioned in the Place Plan,
Page 8
ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES 20 MARCH 2025
despite staff comments in Attachment 2, which were made in response to
significant community feedback that the Plan had failed to capture the quarry
situation impacting Pomona, and despite stating the Plan would be amended to
"include references to Kin Kin Quarry"?
Response provided by Kim Rawlings Director Strategy and Environment
The Plan has been amended to reflect heavy vehicle movements including quarry
trucks. Pages 12, 27 and 28 have references to this issue.
8.6. HAYLEY HASS
QUESTION 1
Why is CCTV listed as an action in the Place Plan (Appendix B) when residents
expressed in the consultation that "Pomona already feels safe" and did not support
CCTV in parks and around town, as confirmed by council in the plan, prior
Placemaking reports, and recent council meetings, especially when many
submissions specifically called for no CCTV in Pomona?
Response provided by Kim Rawlings Director Strategy and Environment
As part of the community engagement process, Council made a commitment to
capture all suggested actions from the community throughout the process. Those
actions that did not get identified as priority actions in the main sections of the Plan
have been captured in Appendix B. This included the action regarding CCTV and
when the place plan is reviewed all of these actions can be re-tested with the
community. It is not listed as a priority action in the Main section (Part B) of the
report.
QUESTION 2
How much has the Koala warning variable message sign on Yurol Forest Drive in
Pomona cost the council, including the cost of it being out of action for several
months?
Response provided by Kim Rawlings Director Strategy and Environment
The amount is $0 cost to Council, as this VMS is a State Government TMR
initiative, on a state managed road. TMR’s VMS approach stems from Council’s
established and successful Koalas on the Move campaign, which TMR have been
partnering on for a number of years. The TMR signs only operate at peak times,
due to the nature of koala activity and solar power constraints.
