1Committee RecommendationCarried
Moved: Karen Finzel · Seconded: Joe Jurisevic
That Council note the report by the Principal Environment Officer and the Infrastructure Planning Co-ordinator to the Services and Organisation Committee Meeting dated 6 June 2023 and:
A. Note its appreciation for MSQ / DTMR in commissioning the investigation to respond to increasing demand for recreational boating facilities
B. Raise concerns for the lack of a regional approach to planning for boat launching facilities, particularly when the Noosa River system is a relatively small system compared to other regional water bodies and may not have the capacity to accommodate statistical growth
C. Seek discussions about increased funding from MSQ / DTMR to fund on-shore components of the boat ramp facilities
D. Welcome further discussions between MSQ and Council to support expedient placement of the Noosa Woods Pontoon, Gympie Terrace Noosaville Pontoon and Lake Street Tewantin Pontoon to assist in improving boating access to the Noosa River
E. Welcome initiation of planning processes jointly with MSQ and TMR to upgrade facilities at Albert / Thomas Steet (Noosaville) Boat Ramp, Hilton Esplanade (Tewantin) Boat Ramp, Lake Street (Tewantin) Boat Ramp and Moorindil Street (Tewantin) Boat Ramp but raise concerns for the unrealistic increase in car and trailer carparking capacity indicated in the Noosa Recreational Boating Facilities Demand Forecasting Study due to traffic, landscape and environmental impact
F. Reject the proposed facility at Chaplin Park due to planning, tenure and character impacts on the park
G. Note that Council is proposing to initiate a Parking Study in FY23/24 that will include examination of car and trailer parking at and near to boat ramps to examine additional measures to manage capacity through contemporary parking demand management techniques, and that the outcomes of this study should inform any consideration of future boat ramps.
Carried Unanimously.

Frank Wilkie100:30Welcome back everybody, up to the next item 5.4, which is the Maritime Safety Queensland regulation of boating facilities demand forecast statement 2022, which was referred from the services and modernisation committee, where it was well canvassed, lots of questions asked and spoken to, but has been referred due to the significant significance of the issue, unless any other Councillors who weren't at that committee would like to ask questions or make comments. Welcome Shaun and Rebecca, would you give a service.
