…community health that comes along with an alternative option moving away from single-use coffee cups. In fact, the reduction of a single-use item that can often end up as litter in our waterways may actually improve environmental health and community health so we think we need to stay steadfast to that and that will be a key criterion in criteria in our selection of recommended…
…workplace and ensure the health and safety of their customers. Places in the industry. Coffee, Noosa. Roastery, coffee, Noosa. Aerosol KeepCups. I was looking at cups, so that's in my commercial marketing opportunity. Commercial, marketing opportunity. You have any further questions, Councillor Finzel?
…dishware that they offer to their customers. There's no distinction between a reusable coffee cup and a mug that someone sits down to drink their coffee out of or a glass that they drink.
…start conversation, to challenge the norm, and to say that it's not acceptable to buy coffee, drink it, and three minutes later throw the cup into a landfill. To note there was a ripple effect from that. I want to note there was a ripple effect from that. After the media coverage, professor Ian Lowe from the biosphere contacted me and said that the Brisbane cafes had seen a hug…
…being the first market that recently put their hand up to transition away from single-use coffee cups and we're working at the moment with Kin Kin to make it the first village structure to jump on board. Having said that, when I spoke to the guys down at Kin Kin Market, they wanted to take on the challenge and become the first village. So again, the conversation, it has ripple …
…Wellington. And I think what I think I spoke just before in terms of reusable single-use coffee cups, you need drivers and those drivers should start at the top. So in 2016 we had. Tony Wellington driving everything in the space of climate change and I've got a list of just a whole bunch of things that he did. Again, credit where credit's due. And also part of my little investi…
…playground to be entertained. I recall bringing my children when they were little to lots of coffee shops and restaurants and there were no playgrounds so I don't think it restricts the commercial use. People can still go to the royal mail and have coffee, have breakfast, kids can still be entertained by talking to their parents or digital devices what the in terms of the playg…
…understanding of a preference to open earlier can in there being an allowance for people to have coffees and cakes and whatnot whilst they're doing bowls in the morning but probably not preferable that there are that meals and liquor is being consumed at that hour so just to fill you in a little bit more again around some of our thinking and that disconnect between ourselves an…
…and it's all part of being accessible to our community and in hand with the Council's coffee chats. I think they may not always be super well attended, the coffee chats I'm talking about, but they know the opportunity is there. And sometimes they really are for no particular reason and other times they're not, but where is there any opportunity? And this is part of that. And I'…
…Councillor Phillips, Councillor Lorentson. The motion's carried. Thank you. I need a coffee. We'll go to 11.1.3, Planning & Environment Committee recommendations en bloc. We have a mover and seconder for the Planning & Environment Committee recommendations to be adopted except we're dealt with separately. Happy to move. Thank you, Councillor Lorentson. Second. Of Councillor Phi…
…was quite a lot of feedback around wanting some sort of commercial offerings teas, like coffees but also places that people can go for meetings and also get information so there is a small community meeting facility within the plan at that entrance feature area. We have primarily accessible grade pathways around the Botanic Gardens so it's the main loops around the gardens so p…
…access to Noosa National Park by free bus only during peak times, burn single-use will coffee cups along Hastings Street and Gympie Terrace, Noosa Council applicates for restricted access and a booking system to the Shire's iconic landscapes, e.g. Noosa National Park and Noosa North Shore, mandate that all tourism experience and service operators are zero waste and zero emissio…

Refined by multiple innovative trials over go many Noosa aims to manage peak period congestion through smart, simple changes that maximise traffic flow by removing disruptions at key roundabouts and feeder roads, improve safety and the overall experience for resi…
…draft DMP is about and have their say. This includes a series of information sessions, coffee chats, postcards to every household and business in Noosa, a Your Say page with a survey, fact sheets, resources and background information, social media campaign, newspaper and radio ads and stakeholder catch-ups. This report is now recommended to you for Council's consideration and e…
…when you live in an area like the junction you have bought to be able to walk and get a coffee get some food. And enjoy the precinct with that comes also a little bit of nightlife and so what I never want to see is businesses being as long as they are within their OLGR and doing the right thing should they have to restrict any type of business promotion given that is one of the…
…our community engagement and give people much more access to we've been doing that with coffee chats and things so far but we've also, this will now be our fourth meeting out in the community from Pomona, Peregian Cooroy and now Kin Kin so we really look forward to engaging with members of the community at Kin Kin and beyond. And they're all part of our commitment to try and re…

For residential properties, that's a 6.7% or about $122 a year. And whi…
…same zoning? Open invitation. Come and have a chat with us at any time. Sit down, have a coffee, we'll show you around. Thank you for listening.
…back home. I then walked her back to her car space. It took us about 10 minutes from coffee shop to get to her car spaces. That is not okay. And that's why I'm standing here. I've since had so many people from Pomona. I was at the Cooroy scon thyme just recently. I got stopped by so many elderly residents at Cooroy scon thyme, many who live in Pomona, who also express the need …
