GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                                         11 JANUARY 2016


Proposed New Fee

The Noosa River Holiday Park has received interest from overnight van stay patrons
(predominately backpackers) to stay at the site at a reduced rate. The Manager of the site has
identified five car spaces adjacent to the boat ramp (see Attachment 1) that would be appropriate
for overnight van stays (typically a backpacker van). On consultation with the Manager of the site
it is proposed that a fee of $30 be included in the General Cost Recovery Fees and Commercial
Charges schedule. This fee is a 25% discount off the ‘Tourist Unpowered Site Rate’, and is
designed to assist with reducing illegal camping within the shire.
