Shire Wide   Should provide water fountains for the birds like at Eumundi for wildlife

Shire Wide   Suggest give all new residents and ratepayers a copy of Noosa and Cooloola. Explains hard
             fought battle and to show how Noosa residents fought to keep Noosa the way it is and not have
             big city ambitions.

Shire Wide   Have parks allow dog off-leash areas between 6-9am and 4-7pm for responsible dog owners

Shire Wide   Keep our environment pristine - no littering in the forests - no motorbikes into the forests

Shire Wide   Make sure there are bio filters on pipes and rivers - don't get crowded.

Shire Wide   Commitment to making sustainable living a normal behaviour by committing to environmental
             education, awards and behaviour change programs with community groups and public/private
             partnerships. Upgrading interpretive boards and signage about Noosa's iconic areas, heritage,
             environment etc. Support initiatives promoting ethnic diversity and multiculturalism as
             elements of a vibrant community culture.

Shire Wide   Create awareness about drinking water supplies from outside the Noosa area.

Shire Wide   Full disclosure of the Biosphere status in terms of cost versus advantages. Are these goals
             possible or just preferable?

Hinterland   Speed limits on roads i.e. McKinnon Drive need to be reduced to save wildlife and for safety.

Hinterland   Improve maintenance of roads in the hinterland area with better drainage and edges (not just
             poisoning)
Ridgewood    Donnellys Rd at Ridgewood - would like to see road sealed

Kin Kin      Signage needs to slow drivers down coming into Kin Kin. More signage in general for tourists
             including Dr Pages Rd.
Cooran       The Mayor is encouraged to attend Cooran (Acoustic night)
Cooran       Weeds in the lagoon and drainage program
