ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES                                                                     18 FEBRUARY 2021

                 Dear neighbour,
                 Like you, we call Crank Street home and are increasingly frustrated and concerned by the
                 number of motorists speeding up and down the length of our street. We'd like to see Noosa
                 Council implement some traffic calming measures to minimise the risk of harm to motorists,
                 pedestrians, cyclists, and pets, and hope that this will also go some way to reducing the
                 noise pollution that the speeding generates. If this is something that you are in support of,
                 please complete the below form and pop it into our letterbox to be collated and submitted to
                 Noosa Council. Thank you for your support in keeping our street safe for locals.
                 Warmest,

                P.s. | will submit this mid-November, so if you are wanting to support this request to council,
                please pop your signed copy in our letterbox by then. PO

                               Petition for traffic calming in Crank Street, Tewantin QLD
                Overview of concern: In recent months, there has been a steady and notable increase in the
                misuse of Crank Street as a short cut between Butler Street and Werin Street, and Werin
                Street and Moorindil Street. Of particular concem is the speed at which many of these
               “motoristsvare travellingand the carelessness with) which thésé motorists, many of them
                provisionally licensed, are operating their vehicle. There are a number of young families
                residing in our street, not to mention the many residents who cycle, walk their pets, and
                generally spend time in their front yards, who are now managing the risk associated with
                speeding motorists. In addition, the dangerous cutting of corners at the four-way
                intersections that book-end the aforementioned sections of Crank Street, and the late-night
                hooning are also of concern. We would like to see Noosa Council take appropnate and
                timely measures to minimise the risk of harm (both to motorists and residents) that is
                steadily growing. A proactive approach to this issue is both important and warranted.

                measures.          lemented in our street to ensure the safety of residents and motorists.
