๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ค Following advocacy that resulted in the Bluewater review ๐, the State funded Vessel Replacement Program is set to provide a new boat to our wonderful QF5 Coast Guard in January ๐ข. This comes at the same time as the transition to a single integrated state-wide organisation called Marine Rescue Queensland (MRQ). Congratulations to all and Commander Lindsay Hall for joining me for an update! In addition, the North Coast SES region will be allocated new drones over the financial year to assist in supporting ground crews during and after disaster events. Now we just need some extra ones for our police! ๐ฎโโ๏ธ๐![]()

STATE FACILITATED DEVELOPMENT(SFD)PROJECTS![]()
Evening everyone๐ as promised I would update after my meeting with the Minister for Housing and state planning staff today. They advised that given this is the first part of the process, known as Stage 1A: Pre-lodgment, no other details will be provided such as building heights, car parking and how affordability will be defined, managed and retained as it is concept based at the moment. Given my opposition due to lack of details to the HAAPOLA Bill which provided the legislation for this SFD pathway, for the same reason I am opposing this process and have made a media statement this afternoon via 7News Sunshine Coast. This for government to immediately provide the information needed by Noosa Council and our community for informed feedback. In addition, I called on both the ALP and LNP to make a solid commitment that they will not force projects onto Noosa that do not meet community expectations, or exceed the provisions made for Noosa Junction and Tewantin in Councils amendments to the Noosa Plan. So right now, having been advised that the feedback sought currently is preliminary in nature to help the Minister determine whether they progress to application stage 2 or not, it is vital to provide your feedback via yoursay.housing.qld.gov.au/state-facilitated-development deadline 5pm Mon 23 September. Should projects advance to Stage 2 which is the assessment of the application for SFD, further details of the projects here and across QLD will be available, and community consultation undertaken, though in a shorter timeframe. I am currently working with Noosa Council, and on our submission and should anyone wish to also write to Minister Scanlon, you can do so via housing@ministerial.qld.gov.au and donโt forget to cc to us via noosa@parliament.qld.gov.au. For more information on the State Facilitated Development process, please visit www.planning.qld.gov.au/planning-framework/development-assessment/state-facilitated-development For an outline of why we did not support the HAAPOLA Bill in Parliament, please see www.sandybolton.com/state-facilitated-development-process-housing-availability-and-affordability-... We will continue to update as any further information becomes available, and apologies if I donโt respond to any questions/comments tonight as it has been a long day in Parliament and there is a lot going on!๐

The Peregian Kindy Fete team including our much loved Carmel ensured our little ones (and us big ones!) had the best time, with song, face painting and a visit from Urban Reptiles. Amongst immersing in the Noosa Open Studios, Noosa Farmers Market Market ๐๐ฅand enjoying an early morning walk with WomenKind, it was also lovely to just stop for a chat with fellow Noosans, who are every day out an about loving where they live, everyday! ๐ We are so blessed in more ways than are often realised ๐งก ๐ To see what is coming up in our community, head to www.noosa.qld.gov.au/community/events/events-calendar

๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ โต It has been a long journey, however we got there! This โamendedโ shed will assist our fisheries staff with their existing operations, including conducting boating safety inspections on behalf of MSQ on the Noosa River ๐งThank you to the Minister and Department and Fisheries (DAF) team including District Officer Brett and all who made this possible as our community appreciates the remedying that has occurred to address concerns and the Noosa Plan ๐Whilst the Minister was within reach (or trapped on a boat with me? ๐) we covered some other items including the expected review of the Shark Control Program due end of year, pippy raiding and how we need some change to legislation to allow the DAF drone to operate out of โline of sightโ. ๐Thank you to all including the DAF officers that are housed here, and their vigilance in many areas, including assisting MSQ.
