Experience Eumundi has identified strong community demand for a dedicated dog park and is exploring ways to use the market car park during off-peak times to cater to four-legged friends. Community consultation closes 5pm 28 February 2025.

When they approached the Sunshine Coast Council last year, they advised that any consideration would only come after finalising their new Dog Exercise Area Regional Plan and Network Blueprint.

The draft plan has just been released, and now is the time for Eumundi residents to have their say.

Experience Eumundi Chair Louise Formosa said, “From my review of the draft plan, Eumundi is not currently listed as a priority, so if you want a dog park here – now is the time to speak up.”

“This is a golden opportunity for Eumundi locals to voice their support or concerns and ensure local considerations are front and centre.”

Whether you’re for or against a local dog park, this is your chance to ensure Council understands what is important to our community.

Experience Eumundi director Donata Page said, “If the community backs this idea, we are committed to working with Council and investing

time and community funds to make it happen.”

“But first, we need to know if this is what the community wants – and we need to ensure Eumundi is on Council’s radar as a priority area.”
