In brief
NOOSA Council is set to re-open the Tewantin Spray Park following the removal of a unstable shade cover.
The council said it had assessed the shade cover and deemed it unsafe, which meant the structure needed replacing.
The park will open prior to Christmas, but was expected to close again for the re-installation of the shade cover.
The project could take up to two months to complete.
Blue Christmas without decorations
NOOSA identity June Colley has expressed her disappointment with several thieves who made off with Christmas decorations along Poinciana Avenue in Tewantin.
“I wish to express my appreciation to the Tewantin Traders for their initiative creating some Christmas spirit by supplying Christmas decorations in the Trees in the Poinciana Avenue shopping centre,“ she said.
“But I wonder why there always has to be a “spoiler” who just helps themselves to some of the decorations.
“Obviously, you gave no thought to the effort the traders put into creating some Christmas spirit for our town. Maybe, with a bit of luck the stolen goods may burst, or Santa may have misplaced your address.“
The matter has been reported to Noosa police who are investigating.
