With a week left before the online survey closes, Council urges residents to share their views on the draft Noosaville Foreshore Infrastructure Master Plan.
Once finalised, the plan will serve as a visionary blueprint for renewing the foreshore, ensuring it remains a vibrant and sustainable community hub.
The plan focuses on upgrading existing amenities and addressing ageing infrastructure, with significant improvements to parks, BBQ areas, shelters, pathways, and toilets. Retention of shade trees, enhanced landscaping and increased shading will create a greener and more inviting environment.
Noosa Council’s Infrastructure Services Director Shaun Walsh emphasised the plan’s importance in maintaining the beauty, safety, efficiency, and resilience of the foreshore parklands.
“An Infrastructure Master Plan is essential to ensure our community’s infrastructure—including pathways, playgrounds, furniture, shelters, carparks, and landscaping—is of good quality, safe, efficient, and resilient, and assists in seeking funding from state and federal government grant programs,” he said.
A key issue for the community to consider is the proposed relocation of 100 carparking spaces to pave the way for more than 2000sqm of greenspace on the foreshore.
Mr Walsh said delivering the plan will be a gradual process, guiding the foreshore’s development over 20+ years.
“Implementing the plan’s features will require additional funding, further design studies, and approvals before any on-site construction can begin. Future site works will be carefully staged and coordinated with the community to ensure minimal disruption,” he said.
Residents have until 7 July to provide feedback on the draft Master Plan at yoursay.noosa.qld.gov.au.
