[RE:MCU12/00f2_jPolice Letter for Conditional Registration
As previously advised, we have written to the Queensland Police Commissioners Office regarding
the police letter included in the development application.


We have been advised by Queensland Police Service (QPS)that it is not a permit but a letter that
has been issued by Pomona Police Station. This letter is currently under review and we have been
advised by QPS that "Additional inquiries will need to be made with Qld Transport and DERM
relevant to matters under consideration." We would like to request that these inquiries be taken into
consideration by the council with regards to the assessement of the application.


It is our understanding that the use of Tablelands and Hill Roads by Noosa Quad Bike Tours will
also require assessement for conditional registration by the management of the road, for example
(local council, the Department of Transport and Main Roads or the Environmental Protection
Agency), which will also contribute to determining the outcome of the conditional registration
application. We understand that the management of the road will assess the roads use by Noosa
Quad Bike Tours against their own criteria and guidelines.

It’is unfourtnate that the application has given the false impression that the QPS has given their
authortiy for the Quad Bike Tours to proceed, which may not be the case. We have brought this
issue of confusion to the attention ofAssistant Commissioner who is currenlty investigating this
                                                                                                        .




whole matter.


We have been advised by QPS that investigations will not be finalised before the 20 June.


Please feel free to contact us should you have any questions.


Yours Sincerely,
