A
823Rd
round
of
council
and
of
course,
today,
the
lifestyle
and
community
committee
before
we
get
going,
I
thought
it
might
be
nice
to
acknowledge
the
arrival
of
our
new
director,
mr
elton
twine
yeah.
We
all
know
elton
from
tni
days.
A
I
think
he
provided
good
counsel
during
those
meetings
and
I'm
sure
we'll
have
the
same
at
our
committee
and
of
course,
we
haven't
had
an
opportunity
to
thank
the
outgoing
director,
alison
ewins,
I'm
sure
there'll
be
a
time
and
a
moment
for
that.
But
it's
a
good
committee.
It
does
good
work
and
I'm
sure,
we're
in
good
hands
with
the
elton
so
really
great
to
have
you
here
and
to
all
of
our
managers
and
team.
Thank
you
so
much
for
being
a
steady
hand
and
lending
your
institutional
knowledge.
A
It's
great
to
have
you
here
as
well.
Today
we
have
a
few
items.
Some
are
notionally
procedural,
some
deal
with
substantive
issues,
including
our
naturally
gc
program
and
the
narang
country,
paradise
parklands
councils
item
three
I'd
propose
that
we
star,
unless
there
were
any
questions
concerning
the
last
minutes.
A
B
A
Okay,
so
directed
perhaps
in
the
the
next
iteration
and
eight
two
four
we'll
change
that
great.
Thank
you,
councillor,
toza
counselors.
We
do
have
presentations
on
6.2
and
7.1,
so
I'd
like
to
give
the
officers
an
opportunity
to
present
those
we'll
leave
those
unstarred.
Is
there
any
objection
to
dealing
with
three
5.1
and
6.1
on
block?
Now,
no,
would
someone
like
to
move
that
councilor
gate
seconded
by
councillor
toza.
A
We'll
put
that
to
a
vote,
all
those
in
favor
all
those
against
that
is
carried.
So
thank
you,
councillors
that
deals
with
item
3,
5.1
and
six
point
one
councillor
peter
young,
understand
you'd
like
to
make
two
declarations.
Concerning
item
six
point:
oh
sorry,
7.1.
C
Yes,
good
morning,
mr
chairman
and
councillors,
thanks
for
your
acknowledgement
this
morning-
and
I
do
have
two
declarations
in
regard
to
the
country-
paradise
item-
that
before
us-
the
first
one
is
in
relation
to
mr
mark
tierney
who's.
Currently,
the
president
of
the
country,
paradise
association,
he's
a
personal
friend
of
mine
and
has
been
for
about
25
years.
C
Well,
that's
it.
I've
got
a
long-standing
friendship
with
mr
tiene
and
he
knows
that
my
overwhelming
responsibility
is
and
always
has
been,
the
broader
public
interest
and
the
matter
before
us
is
of
great
importance
to
the
community.
So
I'm
seeking
to
be
involved
in
the
participation
in
the
debate
and,
ultimately,
the
voting
on
the
matter
gym.
A
Tony,
could
you
confirm
so
through
you
directed
to
tony?
Could
you
confirm
whether
country
paradise
parklands
is?
Is
it
a
district
level
park
or
or
where
does
it's
in
the
hierarchy?
Good
question,
council
three,
mr.
A
B
I'd
I'd
be
that
councillor
petty
young
should
participate
in
the
decision
despite
the
confluence
conflict
of
interest,
because
the
public
interest
exceeds
the
importance
of
the
the
interest
is
disclosed.
What's
the
word,
there's
a
standard
wording
we
use
when
we
say.
E
I'm
sorry
chairman,
I
was
just
saying
I
don't
know
what
the
previous
status
has
been
regarding
close
personal
relationships,
because
clearly
25
years
is
a
long
time
to
have
a
friendship,
and
I
just
can't
recall-
and
we
don't
have
anyone
here
to
give
advice
on
that.
Do
we,
but
I
just.
A
A
I
think
that's
worth
doing.
For
my
own
part,
my
decision
to
support
the
motion
rests
more
on
the
fact
that
we're
dealing
with
a
district
level
park
that
would
seek
to
which
would
give
an
interest
to
a
significant
number
of
people
in
the
local
government
area,
in
my
view,
then
trigger
an
exemption
as
an
ordinary
business
matter
that
that's
my
thinking
in
supporting
it.
Obviously,
that's
not
the
form
of
words
on
the
screen,
but
for
the
purposes
of
putting
that
on
the
public
record
that
that's
my
view,
counselors.
A
Unless
there's
any
objection,
I
might
put
that
to
a
vote
all
those
in
favor.
I
have
to
call
a
division
on
that
councillor
gates,
councillor
caldwell
councillor,
belden
lumsden,
councillor
castro,
councillor
toza,
councillor,
o'neill,
council
of
vorster,
those
against
in
the
abstentions
and,
of
course,
council
young
did
not
vote,
but
it's
not
a
committee
member.
C
Thank
you
chairman,
so
my
second
declaration
is
along
the
same
lines.
It
deals
with
a
member
of
the
committee
of
the
management
committee.
Mr
peter
cardone
has
been
a
long-standing
friend
of
mine.
I
should
add
that
both
of
these
gentlemen
are
volunteers
on
the
committee.
They
derive
no
personal
benefit
from
their
association
or
their
membership
of
the
association,
and
they
work
very
hard.
C
I've
had
no
private
discussions
with
either
of
those
gentlemen
about
this
matter.
I've
of
course
discussed
the
matter
with
them
as
a
as
members
of
the
committee
and
along
with
council
officers.
So
just
to
be
clear.
The
name
of
the
related
part
of
here
is
mr
peter
cardona.
C
He's
a
friend
of
mine
he's
a
member
of
the
marine
country,
paradise
association,
I'm
seeking
to
participate
in
making
a
decision
about
the
matter,
because,
although
I
have
a
long-standing
friendship
with
him,
he
has
always
known
that
my
overwhelming
responsibility
is
the
broader
public
interest,
and
this
is
a
matter
of
importance
to
the
greater
community.
Indeed,
the
park
is
a
district
park
and
the
report
talks
about
it
being
beefed
up,
so
it
meets
that
regional
parkland
designation.
Ultimately,
thanks
jim.
A
Thank
you
very
much
council
young
again
councils
on
let's
first
open
up
two
questions
in
case
there
are
any
for
councillor
young,
no,
but
some
like
to
move
procedural
motion.
Counselor
tozer
moved!
So
if
we
can
use
the
same
form
of
words,
thank
you.
It's
moved
by
councillor
toza
and,
as
was
the
case
earlier
seconded
by
council,
lacastre.
A
No,
I
will
put
that
to
a
vote
all
those
in
favor
of
the
procedural
motion:
councillor
gates,
councillor
caldwell,
council,
belden,
lumsden,
council,
lacastro,
councillor
toza,
councillor,
o'neill,
council
of
worster,
those
against
council,
peter
nunn
and
council.
Peter
young
did
not
vote
but
of
course
he's
not
a
member
of
the
committee.
You
did
not
attempt
to
vote.
Did
you?
Thank
you.
A
A
No,
today
right,
wonderful,
we
can
now
move
to
item
6.2,
which
is
our
naturally
gc
programmer.
Presenter
is,
of
course,
soraya
robinson,
our
manager,
tony
german.
How
are
you
tony
you're?
Already
there
mate
and
dr
tim
snuck
in
the
back
you're,
the
only
one
dressed
as
a
namu
team
member
today,
by
the
way
councillors
I
understand,
went
for
a
real
treat.
Today
we
have
a
short
video,
a
presentation
and
it's
surrey's.
First
time
can
you
believe
it
behind
the
microphone
in
the
chamber?
G
Thank
you
so,
as
mentioned
so
my
name
is
saraya
robinson
for
those
who
haven't
met
me
and
I'm
the
greening
officer
here
with
the
city
of
gold
coast,
I
actually
started
in
2005
as
a
trainee
with
bush
lane
maintenance,
but
for
the
last
14
years
I
have
been
delivering
our
naturally
gc
community
environment
programs
amongst
other
environmental
projects.
G
So
just
a
little
bit
about
the
natural
areas
management
unit.
For
those
that
may
not
know,
we
are
affectionately
known
as
nemu,
and
we
are
responsible
for
the
management
and
conservation
of
around
13
000
hectares
of
the
city's
conservation
estate,
covering
around
800
parks
in
reserves.
G
So
today
I'm
going
to
talk
to
you
a
little
bit
about
the
naturally
gc
program.
So
most
of
you
are
aware
of
it.
However,
we
just
wanted
to
provide
a
little
bit
more
information
city-wide
about
what
we're
actually
doing
so.
The
program
is
the
leading
the
city's
leading
community
environmental
education
program.
G
It
has
two
components
so
environmental
education,
but
also
the
land
care,
which
is
our
bush
care
and
land
care
groups
and
our
tree
planting.
The
education
part
of
the
program
was
formed
in
2008,
but
the
landcare
program
has
been
running
since
1999
under
the
previous
name
beaches
to
bushland
landcare,
so
they
both
both
really
well-loved
community
programs
that
have
been
running
for
quite
some
time.
G
So
the
aim
of
the
program
is
to
connect
the
community
to
nature.
So
we
do
this
through
two
ways,
so
providing
on-ground
action
and
conservation
activities
that
the
community
can
join
in
on
and
then,
of
course,
raising
awareness
of
the
environmental
values
of
the
gold
coast.
So
a
lot
of
the
time
when
people
think
about
the
gold
coast,
they
often
think
about
the
beaches,
the
high
rises
or
the
development,
but
a
lot
of
people
might
overlook
how
biodiverse
our
city
actually
is.
G
Here
is
just
an
overview
of
the
city
vision,
so
you
can
see
that
we
fit
under
the
naturally
unique,
so
our
city
values
its
natural
environment.
That
gives
us
a
lifestyle
like
no
other,
so
the
naturally
gc
program
is
fulfilling
one
of
these.
G
So
a
lot
of
the
activities.
So
we
do
everything
from
citizen
science,
so,
whether
that's
taking
community
out
into
our
parks
and
looking
at
what
flora
and
fauna
we
have
in
the
parks
that
we
might
not
be
aware
of.
We
also
do
festivals,
such
as
our
naturally
gold
coast
festival,
and
we
also
deliver
adults
and
kids
workshops.
So
whether
the
community
want
to
learn
about
what
native
plants
they
might
want
to
plant
in
their
back
garden,
all
the
way
down
to
kids
workshops
such
as
guided
walks.
G
As
you
can
see
in
the
corner
here
at
kuma
bar
lakelands
with
the
school
holiday
program,
we
also
deliver
the
tree
planting
and
the
landcare,
which
I'm
going
to
be
going
into
a
little
bit
more
detail
about.
But
then
we
also
promote
recreation,
getting
people
out
into
our
parks,
enjoying
our
natural
areas
and
also
promoting
sustainable
nature-based
recreation.
So
what
we
can
actually
do
in
our
parks,
apart
from
conservation
and
then
indigenous
cultural
heritage
as
well.
G
So
some
of
the
key
activities
that
we
did
want
to
highlight
in
the
22
23
program
are
listed
here,
so
we've
partnered
with
hoppo
ferries.
So
this
is
a
city
first,
where
we
are
delivering
workshops
out
on
the
broad
water,
we're
taking
the
community
out
with
us
they're
going
to
be
learning
about
things
like
dugongs
turtles
seagrass,
but
we're
also
going
to
be
visiting
curly
island
where
there's
the
eastern
curly,
which
is
a
threatened
bird
that
migrates
from
russia
all
the
way
to
australia.
G
So
we're
going
to
be
educating
the
public
about
the
importance
of
these
spaces.
We're
also
going
to
be
doing
night
time
surveys
with
greater
gliders.
So
this
is
another
threatened
species
that
we
have
in
the
city
and
there's
a
range
of
different
conservation
parks
that
provide
habitat
for
these,
so
we're
partnering
with
wildlife
queensland
to
do
surveys
with
the
community
looking
for
these
greater
gliders
at
night
time
and
getting
some
really
important
data
and
information
for
the
city
a
night
at
the
gardens.
So
this
is
at
the
botanic
gardens.
G
So
often
a
lot
of
people
probably
don't
think
of
the
botanic
gardens
as
a
spot
for
conservation.
However,
it
is,
we
know,
there's
a
lot
of
wildlife
that
utilize
this
area
central
to
the
city
for
refuge,
so
we're
doing
night
time,
guided
tours
with
kids
and
adults
as
well
to
see
what
animals
are
utilizing
the
park
and
the
next
one
you
may
have
seen
recently
is
the
infrared
fauna
cameras
so
them
through
mayoral
funding.
G
The
green
day
out
tree
planting,
so
this
one's
going
to
be
held
on
the
mighty
albert
river
this
year,
we're
looking
to
do
anywhere
between
five
to
ten
thousand
trees.
This
will
be
an
event
that
we're
looking
to
rotate
around
the
city
as
well
into
other
conservation
parks
and
other
divisions,
and
then
our
naturally
gold
coast
festival
and
the
wildlife
festival.
G
So
the
naturally
gold
coast
festival
is
our
city's
key
environment
festival
and
that
has
historically
been
held
in
rabina
and
the
wildlife
festival
which
we're
going
to
be
hosting
in
upper
kumara,
is
its
second
year
running
and
is
all
about
connecting
our
community
to
native
wildlife
and
learning
about
how
unique
the
fauna
that
we
have
here
on
the
gold
coast.
Is
we
really
just
wanted
to
highlight
the
landcare
program?
G
So
this
is
something
you
might
see
us
out
there
planting
trees
and
things
like
that,
but
we
just
wanted
to
highlight
our
actual
partnerships
through
the
landcare
and
what
we
actually
achieve
as
a
city,
so
we
partner
with
11
different
bush
care
and
land
care
groups
across
the
city,
but
we
also
host
school
and
corporate
tree
planting
events
during
the
week.
So
we
invite
school
groups
and
corporate
businesses
to
come
and
plant
trees
with
us
in
our
conservation
area,
but
we
also
facilitate
our
community
tree
planting
day.
G
This
is
something
that
I
really
wanted
to
highlight.
We
have
done
a
lot
of
benchmarking
and
not
just
seq,
but
also
across
australia,
and
we're
one
of
the
only
cities
that
actually
a
hundred
percent
fund
land
care
works
within
the
city.
So
often
land
care
groups
or
bush
k
groups
have
to
seek
funding
from
external
organizations
or
apply
for
grants
to
be
able
to
deliver
conservation
activities
within
our
parks.
However,
through
the
city's,
naturally
gc
land
care
program,
we
fund
all
of
these
works
and
also
through
divisional
funding
as
well.
G
In
addition
to
this,
we're
also
provided
a
resource
which
is
through
me
and
the
rest
of
the
team,
where
we
actually
make
it
a
lot
easier
for
volunteers
to
want
to
play
a
part
in
caring
for
these
areas.
So
we
do
things
like
ordering
all
of
the
holes
purchasing
all
of
the
trees,
organizing
watering,
organizing
all
the
promotion
and
marketing
registration
of
the
event
and
then,
most
importantly,
we
have
internal
bush
regeneration
teams
that
are
skilled
and
qualified
to
do
the
maintenance
of
these
projects
to
make
sure
that
they
are
successful
and
are
volunteering.
G
G
So
this
program
is
enhancing
that
and
contributing
to
that
that
data
biodiversity.
So
often
when
we
start
a
new
site,
it
might
be
quite
low
biodiversity,
it
might
be
filled
with
environmental
weeds,
but
through
these
partnerships
and
skilled
teams,
we're
increasing
biodiversity
and
our
native
species
within
the
city
and,
of
course
habitat.
So
we
really
want
to
provide
a
habitat
for
our
native
animals
and,
of
course,
animals
such
as
our
iconic
koala,
which
is
also
lit,
listed
as
threatened,
and
then
community
involvement
and
social
as
well.
G
So
we
want
to
provide
a
platform
for
the
community
to
help
care
for
their
natural
areas,
but
we
also
want
to
provide
outcomes
for
social
and
mental
health
as
well.
So
landcare
is
one
of
the
ways
that
we
can
do
this
education,
so
the
program
provides
an
opportunity
for
residents
and
visitors
to
learn
all
about
our
natural
areas
through
city
offices
and
education
on
the
day
and
then,
of
course,
partnerships
between
local
government
and
community.
G
Instead
of
me
talking
about
the
program
we've
produced
and
I'll,
just
let
you
know
this
was
just
in-house.
This
is
a
vision
from
myself
and
jessica,
our
other
naturally
gc
officer,
and
it's
just
going
to
showcase
a
really
short
highlight
of
our
program.
G
G
G
G
G
D
D
G
So
yeah
that
was
just
a
little
video
that
we
produced.
So
we
do
a
lot
of
content
when
we're
out
at
these
events
and
there's
a
lot
of
great
stories
to
share.
So
we
also
wanted
to
just
highlight
some
of
our
naturally
gc
achievements.
So
as
a
team,
we
actually
feel
like
we're
achieving
a
lot
every
single
day
and
often
a
lot
of
the
things
that
people
don't
see
are
behind
the
scenes.
G
In
2122,
however,
we
had
22
000
people
come
and
join
us
for
naturally
gc
activities.
We
did
this
across
245
events.
We
hosted
55
partnerships,
whether
that's
between
local
land
care
groups
or
not-for-profits
or
businesses,
and
we
delivered
four
holiday
programs
which
most
of
you
would
be
aware,
how
popular
that
they
are
and
how
quickly
they
do
book
out
in
terms
of
landcare,
usually
pre-covered
and
with
the
weather.
The
last
year
we
normally
average
around
planting
60
000
trees.
G
We
have
around
3
000
volunteers
that
join
us
every
year,
but
then
we
have
400
regular
members.
So
these
are
members
that
show
up
every
single
month
that
regularly
want
to
volunteer
with
us,
and
you
can
see
some
of
the
photos
here.
So
this
is
from
austinville
landcare
group
and
just
while
I'm
on
the
subject
of
this,
I
just
really
wanted
to
highlight
and
publicly
acknowledge,
while
mayor
who's
in
the
bottom
here
on,
the
left
wall
was
recently
awarded
the
national
land
care
award
down
in
sydney.
G
G
You
can
see
in
2122,
we've
tripled
those
events
to
245
22,
000
people.
Our
tree
planting
numbers
were
slightly
down
due
to
the
weather,
with
34
344
trees
in
22
23,
so
our
current
year
we're
already
delivering
350
activities
across
the
city.
We
know
the
participant
numbers
are
going
to
be
much
higher
than
this,
and
also
the
tree
planting
numbers
already
we're
on
target
to
to
reach
that
figure.
G
We
really
wanted
to
showcase
and
highlight
most
of
you
have
probably
been
out
with
us
planting
trees
or
onto
site,
to
see
some
of
the
differences
that
we
are
actually
making
with
partnerships,
but
we
really
wanted
to
highlight
and
visually
showcase
these.
So
up
here
on
the
left.
We
have
crumb
and
creek
care
group,
so
in
2008
you
can
see
the
top
photo.
It
was
relatively
void
of
native
vegetation.
G
It
had
camp
laurels,
which
are
an
environmental
weed,
lining
the
creek,
a
weedy
understory
and
erosion
within
the
creek,
and
through
a
partnership
with
caramel
creek
care
group
and
also
with
teams
of
skilled
bush
regenerators.
We
have
restored
that
from
the
above
to
the
below.
So
it's
now
a
thriving
ecosystem.
G
This
is
1.5
kilometers
of
area
along
currumbin
creek.
So
it's
really
made
a
significant
impact
to
that
catchment
area.
The
image
on
the
the
other
side.
There
is
regatta
waters
park
in
oxenford,
so
this
park
was
previously
a
cattle
farm,
so
it
was
under
a
lease
through
council
and
with
the
partnership
with
the
kuma
river
group
and
assistance
from
other
community
groups
such
as
scouts,
we've
been
doing
various
tree
plantings
in
this
particular
area.
You
can
see
the
before
photo
there,
just
in
2017
and
the
after
difference,
that's
already
made
in
2022.
G
So
these
are
areas
as
well
that
do
have
erosion
issues
along
the
creek.
So
by
planting
these
trees,
we're
hoping
to
improve
any
erosion
issues
that
we
might
have
along
these
sections
of
river.
F
G
So
yes,
through
the
chair
yeah,
it
is
so
it
was
actually
a
previously
an
old
dairy
farm,
but
also
quarrying.
So
then,
through
the
eco
village
development,
this
middle
bit
was
handed
over
to
council.
So
when
we
came
on
board
it,
it
should
have
looked
like
this,
so
we're
restoring
it
back
to
its
original
state.
It
should
have
looked
like
this.
It
didn't,
but
through
the
partnerships
and
then
our
skilled
natural
areas,
team
we've
been
able
to
restore
it
to
what
it
should
be
so
existing
native
vegetation
there.
So
it's
incredibly
biodiverse
along
here.
G
We
also
have
platypus
that
call
this
area
home.
So
it's
really
important
that
we
do
these
works
along
these
these
areas,
but
yeah.
This
is
exactly
what
we
want
to
be
seeing
our
conservation
area
parks
looking
like.
So
it's
a
really
fantastic
before
and
after
image
to
really
showcase
what
we're
achieving
here
at
the
city.
G
G
So
this
one
here
is
probably
of
interest
to
you,
so
this
is
austin
mill,
conservation
area
and
instead
of
just
the
before
and
after
photo.
We
also
wanted
to
put
the
aerial
image
in
here
as
well,
so
you
can
see
in
2013,
so
this
is
on
the
upper
reaches
of
manjaba
creek,
again
void
of
most
native
vegetation,
incredibly
weedy
and
then
the
below
photo,
which
was
snapped
just
recently.
So
this
is
after
skilled
restoration
work.
G
So
we
have
two
teams
working
on
this
site,
so
two
internal
restoration
teams,
contractors
and
then
we've
also
got
the
austinville
valley,
landcare
group
working
the
creek
line
in
partnership
with
us.
So
you
can
see
such
a
difference
from
when
the
city
purchased
the
land
with
the
house
pad
on
there
lots
of
open
areas
and
then,
of
course,
the
after
image,
which
has
been
revegetated.
But
this
is
through
multiple
partnerships,
including
our
own
internal
staff,
that
work
out
here
weekly
doing
this
work.
G
This
is
another
one
I
really
wanted
to
highlight,
so
this
really
showcases
the
importance
and
that
we
can
actually
do
recreation
with
conservation.
So
this
is
schuster
park
down
in
tallabadger
valley
for
those
of
you
that
might
not
be
aware
of
it.
G
So
we
just
really
wanted
to
highlight
that
these
programs
are
incredibly
high
demand.
Often
a
lot
of
our
workshops,
they
are
booking
out
we're
constantly
under
pressure
from
local
organizations
and
and
community
groups
wanting
to
do
more
with
the
city.
So
we
are
looking
to
do
an
internal
review
of
the
program,
so
this
will
include
looking
at
resources
and
how
best
we
resource
the
program
to
make
it
sustainable.
G
So
most
of
you
have
probably
known
for
most
of
the
time
I
have
been
primarily
working
solo
and
we
have
another
resource
with
us
now,
but
we're
looking
to
the
future
to
see
what
else
can
we
do
to
help
support
the
program
and
making
it
more
sustainable
and
then
the
last
one
is
increasing
community
awareness
of
the
program.
So
while
we
do
have
good
numbers
coming
along
to
our
programs,
we
have
a
really
high
rate
of
volunteers
that
come
with
us.
G
We're
really
looking
at
ways
that
we
can
promote
this
better
to
the
city
and
to
residents
as
well.
So,
looking
at
platforms
that
we've
put
in
applications
for
potentially
a
facebook
page
and
things
like
that
for
our
program,
so
that
we
can
get
this
information
out
to
our
volunteers
really
quickly
and
highlight
the
outcomes
that
we're
achieving
with
volunteers
how
people
can
get
involved
in
environmental
programs
and
sharing
this
information
on
a
regular
basis.
G
Just
before
I
finish
up
as
well,
I
just
really
wanted
to
acknowledge
the
staff
within
the
natural
areas
management
unit
from
our
conservation
planners
to
our
rangers
and
our
bush
regenerators
they're
doing
absolutely
fantastic,
world-class
work.
It
often
goes
unnoticed.
It
can
sometimes
be
behind
the
scenes,
but
we
are
leading
the
way
in
many
ways
in
terms
of
conservation
and
what
we're
doing
here
on
the
gold
coast.
G
I
also
wanted
to
thank
the
councillors
and
also
the
mayor
for
providing
funding
to
make
these
programs
happen
and
supporting
these
along
the
way.
It
really
makes
a
difference,
I'm
incredibly
proud
and
passionate
about
these
programs.
It's
fantastic
that
I've
been
able
to
come
here
today
to
present
these,
but
it's
also
wonderful
that
we
can
provide
these
opportunities
for
our
community
to
get
involved
in
help
caring
for
our
natural
areas
and
learning
more
about
how
special
and
unique
the
gold
coast
is.
E
Thanks
very
much
chairman
and
through
you
to
saraya,
I've
had
a
request
in
place
for
a
little
while
adjacent
to
a
property
at
blacks,
road
at
willowvale,
where
there
are
some
erosion
issues
and
a
lot
of
it.
It
needs
re-vegetation
along
the
creek
bank
in
representing
division
one.
I
had
a
great
association
with
north
northeast
albert
landcare,
but
I
don't
know:
do
they
come
down
as
far
as
willow
veil?
If
I
should
want
to
initiate
a
tree
planting.
G
Through
the
chairs,
so
I
can
answer
a
little
bit
of
that,
so
the
north
east,
but
landcare
group
is
predominantly
focused
in
ormo.
I'm
not
aware
of
that
particular
request,
but
it
can
obviously
come
through
to
city
offices.
So
we
can
look
at
that
in
a
number
of
different
ways,
so,
whether
that's
something
that's
done
internally
through
our
skilled
teams
or
whether
it's
something
we
look
at
for
the
future
for
the
land
care
program.
G
C
Chairman
question
through
you,
sorry
we're
at
at
an
event
recently,
and
I
think
you
said
to
a
member
of
the
public
that
there's
no
cats
called
creeper
in
the
public
estate
across
the
city.
I
just
want
to
confirm
that
publicly
now.
G
Yeah
so
through
the
chair,
so
there
is
some
cat's
claw
within
the
city's
conservation
parks,
but
we
are
working
extremely
hard
to
control
that
so
in
the
narang
area
in
particular,
it
was
a
big
issue
within
that
catchment
area,
since
obviously
helped
through
divisional
funding
as
well
restoring
areas
like
pigots
pigott's
park
at
guanabara,
guanaba
reserve
and
narang.
It's
it's
very
limited
within
our
city's
conservation
estate
and
it's
something
that's
been
high
on
our
agenda
for
some
time.
So
yeah.
A
Councilman
jones
thanks.
D
Through
you,
sorry,
firstly,
I
your
work's,
really
really
good
and
thanks
for
coming
in
this
morning,
I'm
interested
in
how
we
could
potentially
improve
the
communication
to
the
general
public
about
how
it
is
city
funded
and
exclusively
city
funded.
So
I
know
like
in
regatta
waters
we've
planted
tens
of
thousands
and
like
a
kilometer
but
and
steve
and
his
group
do
a
really
good
job.
D
But
I
just
think
that
there's
some
way
that
we
can
maybe
make
it
more
obvious
that
it's
actually
the
volunteers
are
planting,
but
it's
the
city,
funding
the
city,
drilling
the
holes
in
the
city,
watering
and
all
of
those
things.
So
I
have
the
the
problem
where
there's
at
least
another
level
of
government
that
turns
up
and
never
acknowledges
the
good
work
of
the
city
at
ever
so
yeah.
I
think
we
just
need
to
somehow
tweak
that,
and
I
don't
and
steve's
really
good
at
it,
but
it's
just
it's
pretty
annoying.
G
Yeah
so
again
through
the
chair,
so
this
is
something
that
we
have
raised
as
we
do
see
the
value-
and
I
know
there's
rules
and
regulations
around
it
of
our
naturally
gc
program
or
naturally
gold
coast
program
having
a
facebook
page
for
our
program.
We
know
that
we
can
actively
get
this
information
out
there.
We
see
the
same
things
that
you're
seeing
and
there's
a
lot
of
hard
work
that
goes
in
behind
all
of
these
programs
and
activities
that
make
them
possible
and
then
also
city
funding.
G
So
we
believe
we've
been
doing
everything
that
we
can,
but
we
think
if
we
had
another
platform
such
as
facebook
for
the
naturally
gold
coast
program,
we
can
be
getting
this
information
out
a
whole
lot
better.
Also
sharing
the
results
of
what
we're
actually
achieving,
having
volunteers
being
able
to
see
their
images.
G
What
they've
done
on
the
weekend
and
being
able
to
share
that
with
their
friends
and
being
able
to
get
that
out
to
a
really
quick
audience
very
quickly
without
having
to
wait
to
use
other
platforms
or
you
know,
paperwork
to
be
signed
and
things
like
that
as
well.
So
it's
something
that
we
we
do
really
want
to
progress,
and
we
know
it's
a
missing
link
with
our
program
and
it
works
for
a
lot
of
other
councils
that
are
doing
similar
so
yeah.
D
So
I
think
we
should
definitely
look
in
into
that
space
because
it's
clearly
a
huge
investment
that
we're
making
and
and
it's
almost
and
it's
not
just
the
other-
the
state
members
who
are
getting
into
it.
But
it's
the
criticism
the
city
receives
for
not
for
apparently
not
doing
anything
in
this
space
where
you
started
the
conversation
by
saying
we're
world
leading-
and
I
think
sometimes
the
excitement
of
some
groups
about
attacking
the
city
for
doing
an
approval
on
the
coast.
D
They
just
lose
sight
of
the
the
volume
of
work
and
effort.
That's
gone
into
a
whole
lot
of
the
natural
estate
yeah.
G
It
is,
it
is
definitely
a
missing
link
and
it's
something
that
we've
we've
raised
multiple
times
and
something
that
we'd
love
to
be
able
to
take
this
program
forward,
but
also
being
able
to
promote
the
other
positive
work
that
our
not
just
our
natural
areas
team
do
but
other
other
teams
across
the
city.
So
it
is,
it
is
absolutely
phenomenal.
We
are
missing
out
on
a
really
great
opportunity
and
it
would
be
great
to
showcase
that
to
the
public,
but
also
other
state
members,
that
this
is
fantastic
work.
That's
occurring.
A
Yeah,
so
thanks
director
for
that
support
and
counseling
jones,
I
think
you
make
a
really
good
point.
I
think
to
put
it
beyond
that,
and
I
don't
want
to
preempt
endorsement
of
the
recommendation,
but
I
think
we're
all
there.
A
Perhaps
we
can
give
some
strength
to
it
from
a
committee
level
in
support
of
the
director's
undertaking
and
also
soraya's
ask
between
the
lines
we
might
contemplate
a
third
that
would
read
that
the
review
have
regard
to
developing
a
communication
plan
to
acknowledge
the
city's
funding
of
the
program
and
to
showcase
the
results
of
the
initiatives
it
supports
to
secure
good
environmental
outcomes.
A
So
this
works
going
to
take
place
anyway
as
part
of
two,
but
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
we're
dealing
with
those
communication
issues.
Maybe
an
outcome
is
support
for
that
facebook,
page
that
you're
looking
for,
but
to
counselor
owen
jones's
point.
I
think
it's
really
important
that
when
we're
spending
the
green
stuff
on
the
green
stuff,
that
the
greens
know
we're
spending
the
green
stuff
in
the
green
stuff.
A
Absolutely
councillor
o'neill
councillor,
toaster
and
councillor
gates,
just
going
in
order
of
hands
up.
D
Thank
you
chair
and
thank
you
sure
for
your
presentation.
You
know
how
valued
you
are
in
my
division
and
I
certainly-
and
we
had
this
conversation
before
the
meeting
started
exactly
what
council
rowan
jones
said
that
we
aren't.
The
city
is
not
acknowledged
and
you
guys
aren't
acknowledged
enough
in
the
meantime.
Before
you
get
your
facebook
page
up
and
running,
can
I
suggest
that
you
maybe
send
some
stuff
through
to
the
divisional
council,
so
they
can
post
it
on
their
facebook?
D
I
also
notice
in
my
division
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
the
the
tree.
Planting
does
fall
to
valley
residents
because
it's
mainly
in
the
valley
areas,
but
we
really
need
to
get
that
information
out
to
the
broader.
You
know
broader
area,
because
I'm
sure
we
get
a
lot
more
people
interested-
and
I
know
you're
doing
that.
Well
in
the
school
holidays,
the
school
holiday
programs
seem
to
get
out
to
the
broader
region,
but
I
think
with
the
tree
planting,
it
seems
to
be
mainly
valley
residents
in
my
area
and
we
need
to.
B
So
yeah
super
supportive
of
the
idea
that
there
be
a
you
know:
unique
identity
for
the
natural
gc
program
on
social
media
platforms.
I'm
very
aware
that
the
next
generation
that
we're
seeing
in
our
area-
maybe
don't
use
facebook
very
much,
so
it
would
need
to
have
regard
for
other
social
media
assets
that
aren't
facebook,
particularly
as
a
younger
generation
get
involved
in
planting
trees.
I
know
that
out
at
first
park
when
we
do
our
tree
planting
is
just
a
bunch
of
young
people
getting
involved
in
barely
any
of
them.
B
Patu
is
I'm
interested
in
in
some
sort
of
project
like
micro
projects,
so
in
and
throughout
division
nine.
We
have
some
issues
with
non-declared
weed
pests.
B
B
We
have
a
number
of
big
projects
through
the
maybe
the
ncap
partnerships
and
bigger
projects
where
there
might
be
tens
of
thousands
of
dollars
or
five
thousand
dollars
allocated
to
a
project,
but
there's
lots
of
small
weed
management
projects
that
are
either
on
roadside
verges,
private
properties,
ex-farming
properties
that
don't
really
have
a
land
care
interest,
but
I'd
love
to
see
naturally,
gc
develop
over
this
12
month
review
some
sort
of
micro
project.
B
The
challenge
is
most
of
the
time
when
we
allocate
a
funding
solution.
We
have
to
allocate
it
to
an
incorporated
association
or
something,
but
if
there's
a
way
we
could
do
some
sort
of
micro
activity,
particularly
like
a
tactical
intervention
of
a
small
weed
project
and
the
kind
of
weeds
that
I'm
talking
about
are
things
like
giant
devils,
fig
they're
not
declared
people
hate
them.
They
are
prolific
in
the
hinterland
council
officers
say
well,
they're
not
declared,
so
we
can't
go
and
deal
with
it.
B
We
can't
issue
a
notice
to
the
property
owner
to
do
it,
but
there's
actually
a
bunch
of
mobilised
people
who
want
to
do
it
and
I'd
love
to
be
able
to
provide
some
kind
of
community
resources,
because
as
soon
as
we
don't
do
anything
about
it,
you
know
those
weeds
just
go
into
our
reserves
and
then
we
end
up
having
to
clean
it
up
anyway.
B
B
What
he
won
was
the
the
national
individual
land
carer
of
the
year
award
so
out
of
the
whole
of
australia,
he
was
the
land
carer,
who
was
acknowledged
most
prominently
this
year
and
I
think
that's
that's
a
testament
not
just
to
his
work
in
austinville,
but
his
resourcing
of
other
landcare
groups
across
the
gold
coast
and
he's
so
highly
regarded
and
worked
so
hard
to
help
people
even
just
the
other
day.
B
He
was
on
the
the
boundary
of
mudra
creek
at
the
mudrabah
caravan
park,
which
we've
spent
the
last
12
months
kind
of
cleaning
up
already
starting
to
regenerate
and
give
some
advice
to
effectively
a
commercial
provider
about
how
to
restore
those
creek
in
the
riparian
zone.
Next
to
that
creek-
and
that's
some-
you
know
he
just
did
that
willingly
without
any
fee-
and
that's
that's,
I
think,
that's
super,
so
he
does
a
lot
of
that.
So
if
you
have
a
chance
to
come
out,
you
know
if
people
are
interested
in
that
program.
B
A
So
directly,
would
it
be
possible
to
get
a
copy
of
that
presentation,
or
at
least
the
slides
of
that
presentation
after
committee
yeah
great
thank
you
councillor
gates.
A
E
A
E
E
A
H
Mr
chairman,
I'm
just
interested
so
in
the
report.
It
talks
about
that.
The
review
is
going
to
start
within
three
months
and
then
we've
got
on
the
recommendation
for
something
to
come
back
to
us
within
12
months
time.
I
was
wondering
if
there
was
any
indication
of
like
do.
We
need
the
full
12
months.
Could
we
get
it
back
sooner?
Only
knowing
that
you're
not
getting
it
back
soon
and
we
missed
the
chance
to
look
at
next
year's
budget
period
for
what
might
happen
with
some
of
this
work.
A
So
thanks
councillor
hamill,
I
precisely
the
same
questions
of
the
director
and
and
of
tony
wouldn't
be
caught
up
prior
to
the
meeting.
A
The
purpose
of
the
12
months
is
to
collect
the,
I
suppose,
the
data
from
all
events
over
the
next
12
months
to
be
able
to
make
some
informed
recommendations,
so
we're
likely
to
see
some
changes
recommended
ahead
of
the
next
budget
cycle,
but
the
the
evidence
base
that
we
will
need
for
a
full
re-jig,
potentially
of
the
operating
model
or
for
a
resourcing
ask,
could
only
come
within
12
months,
which
is
so.
D
Through
you,
mr
chair,
the
reality
is
to
hit
next
budget.
You've
only
got
about
three
months
left
now,
as
we
go
into
budget
build,
so
we
will
put
something
up
in
the
next
budget,
which
is
a
step
along
the
way,
but
I
think
it's
prudent
too,
as
the
chair
has
said,
to
get
a
really
good,
solid
data
set
to
put
before
you
all.
I.
H
A
So
absolutely
council
hamilton
again
to
give
you
some
confidence
and
peace
of
mind.
I
had
that
discussion
with
the
director
and,
as
he
just
said,
there
will
be
an
ask
in
at
budget
which
is
well
within
the
12
months
and
then
in
12
months
time.
We've
got
an
opportunity
for
a
wholesale
review,
so
there
will
be
that
intermediary
step,
because
I
think
we
all
love
trees.
H
I
have
a
lot
further
questions,
mr
quick,
mr
chairman,
sir.
It's
something
that
I've
had
a
couple
namu
officers,
michael
behind
me,
bringing
one
of
them
out
to
a
couple
sites,
my
area,
that
the
current
programs
sit
inside
the
conservation
estates
and
that
depending
on
which
division
you
represent,
that
you
sometimes
have
estates
or
rural
resident
states
where
corridors
through
those
areas
would
be
natural
connections
between
conservation
estates
or
different
pockets.
H
But
it's
not
really
something
that
is
part
of
the
program
right
now,
purely
because
of
a
resourcing
point
of
view,
so
just
the
flag
that
it
would
be
good
to
see
from
my
point
of
view
and
an
updated
program
that
some
of
our
park
and
corridors
that
go
through
residential
estates,
that
would
be
natural
corridors
could
form
part
of
a
future
program
as
well
to
connect
their
conservation
estates
and
pockets
together.
Better.
A
Council
hamel,
I
think
that's
a
great
point
you
make,
I
think,
there's
a
bit
of
work
to
be
done
around
the
mapping
layers
of
what
constitutes.
What's
not
I'll,
just
make
the
inverse
point
to
you.
A
A
I
think
if
that
kind
of
makes
sense,
sorry
you
might
have
a
different
view
for
the
director,
but
just
sometimes
we're
dealing
with
maybe
a
hundred
square
meters
of
namus
space
surrounded
by
park
because
of
the
historical
development
decision,
and
it's
maybe
not
the
best
outcome,
excellent
playground.
I
know
I'm
making
you
grimace
there
and
so
my
last
question:
could
you
just
walk
us
through
that
hopper
hoppo
partnership,
because
that
sounds
great.
It's
almost
like
a
poor
man's
whale
watching,
yeah.
G
G
Would
you
like
to
use
our
vessel
to
go
out
on
the
broadwater
and
do
environmental
tours
so
they're
actually
going
off
their
normal
course
and
they're
running
a
one
hour
and
a
half
tour
of
the
broad
water
we've
partnered
with
local
organizations,
ocean
connect
and
then
also
a
couple
of
our
local
expert
bird
watchers
that
are
going
to
be
delivering
these
activities
so
yeah
we've
got
at
least
40
people
coming
this
weekend
and
they're
going
to
learn
all
about
how
important
the
broad
water
is
as
well,
not
just
the
land
but
also
the
water
and
the
dugongs
and
the
stingrays,
and
the
turtles
and
the
sea
grass
beds
as
well.
G
So
really
fantastic
partnership
and
one
we're
excited
to
today.
A
And
while
I
don't
begrudge
them
for
doing
this,
absolutely
yeah
because
they
need
to
stay
afloat,
excuse
the
pun,
I'm
assuming
that
there's
a
charge
for
people
to
participate
in
that.
G
No,
so
all
of
our
naturally
gc
activities,
they
are
free
for
people.
So
that's
why
it's
so
important
about
these
as
well.
So
even
through
the
school
holidays,
people
can
bring
along
their
children
and
come
out
to
workshops
and
they're
delivered
for
free.
So
that's
through
the
city,
funding
and
divisional
funding
that
we
make
these
opportunities
possible.
So
all
of
our
activities
that
we
deliver
are
free
for
the
community.
I.
G
The
hopo
tour
this
weekend
so
yeah
everything
is
yeah.
That's
and
that's
why
I
was
saying
it's
so
important
to
really
promote
this
and
showcase
it
on
a
higher
level
to
showcase
what
we
are
actually
doing
and
how
we
do
compared
to
other
councils.
There's
nothing
like
these
programs
delivered
anywhere
else.
So.
A
Good
well,
the
counselors
I'm
happy
to
move
the
recommendations.
Oh
you
have
a
question
yep
two.
F
Things
one
follows
on
from
council
ronald
jones's
point
relating
to
other
levels
of
government,
and
there
was
a
news
story.
I
think
last
tuesday
night
about
some
tree
planting
that
happened
at
the
botanical
gardens
was
that
a
council-funded
event.
F
Worked
out,
it
was
just
it.
I
found
it
a
little
bit
jarring,
considering
that
we
had
spent
so
much
time
and
effort,
just
in
literally
the
week
before
that
talking
about
the
botanical
gardens
and
how
much
we
were
prepared
to
invest
and
showcase
it.
And
then
there
was
a
tree
planting
occurred
and
there
was
clearly
no
one
from
council
was
there
and
the
tv
coverage
was
dominated
by
the
federal
member.
F
So
but
that's
okay,
it
might
have
been
different,
yeah,
that's
right
and
then
the
second
thing
which
I
just
mentioned
to
soraya
earlier
and
the
director
will
know
about
this,
but
the
the
our
beaches
program.
Now
I
don't
know
what
council
barden
lumsen's
experience
has
been,
but
obviously
that's
in
its
very
early
days
of
council
running
that
program.
F
I
think
my
early
observation
is
we're
struggling
to
get
traction
with
that
new
program,
and
I
don't
know
whether
you've
felt
that
as
well,
but
I
just
wondered
whether,
for
the
amount
of
june
planting
type
activities
we're
doing
whether
it
shouldn't
be
perhaps
co-located
in
terms
of
that
efficiency
surai
was
like.
I
don't
need
any
more
work
to
do,
but
just
just
purely
a
suggestion
as
to
whether
it
could
be.
D
Through
through
the
chair,
if
I
can
probably
make
a
comment
about
that,
look,
I'm
aware
of
a
couple
of
examples
where
they
have
and
it's
only
a
couple
where
they've
struggled
with
registrations.
People
have
registered
and
they're
not
turned
up
on
the
day,
but
there's
only
a
couple.
Most
of
the
june
restoration
activities
actually
heavily
over
subscribed
and
the
majority
of
occurrences.
Actually
more
people
turn
up
than
have
registered.
But
there's
this
these
couple
of
I'm
not
sure
what
was
on
that
weekend
that
caused.
D
Else,
late,
cancellations,
but
quite
specific
on
a
couple
of
weekends,
which
is
really
different
to
the
rest
of
the
program,
but
we're
always
happy
to
integrate
and
to
look
for
efficiencies.
You
know
we
can
look
at
this
as
part
of
the
one
city
program.
Where
is
this
best
located
so.
F
Even
if
there
was
just
a
little
bit
of
cross
promotion
across
the
channels
to
try
and
get
people
who
might
have
been
doing
hinterland
tree
planting
down
to
the
beach
to
understand
that
journal
planting
is
also
important.
It's
a
different
type
of
vegetation
and
yeah
etc,
but
we
can
actually
start
to
cross
those
things
over
a
little
bit
more.
A
Yeah
great
contribution
councils,
I'm
happy
to
move
that
recommendation.
If
there's
a
seconder
councillor
toza
someone
like
to
speak
to
it,
counselor
young.
C
Thanks
chairman,
through
you,
sorry
thanks
very
much
for
waving
the
flag
and
being
that
public
face
for
naturally,
gc
you've
done
a
great
job
and
continue
to
do
that
and,
of
course,
recognize
all
the
rest
of
the
team.
C
C
The
response
I've
had
from
namu
for
in
regard
to
community
concerns,
questions
has
always
been
exceptional
and
I
really
appreciate
that
assistance
yeah,
it's
it's
great,
because
there's
a
lot
of
recognition
in
the
community
and
and
regard
for
the
environment
there's
a
lot
of
aspiration
and
I
think
we're
meeting
a
need
there,
and
so
it's
a
naturally
a
very
good
thing
that
you're
involved
in
and
very
happy
to
support
it,
although
I
won't
be
able
to
vote
today.
Okay,
thank
you.
H
H
And
sometimes
those
officers
are
really
keen
to
get
on
board
and
try
and
deliver
outcomes
and
really
proactive
and
sometimes
they're,
not
sorry
and
michael
and
the
whole
namu
team
very
much
fit
into
the
very,
very
proactive
side
of
things.
I
have
really
really
enjoyed
getting
to
know
all
these
officers
and
getting
to
be
part
of
the
community
element
that
comes
with
their
programs
and
just
to
say
on
the
record
that
you
do
a
fantastic
job
and
that
when
community
groups,
my
area
talk
about
the
program
and
the
ones
that
are
involved,
absolutely
love
it.
H
You
and
all
the
officers
in
the
name
of
team
are
a
credit
to
the
city
and
I
hope
from
this
program
getting
a
region
in
the
future
that
it
provides
a
chance
for
more
people
to
understand.
Just
how
excellent
you
are
as
officers
and
how
excellent
this
program
is
so
well
done
and
sincerely.
Thank
you,
you're
an
excellent
officer
and
a
credit
to
the
city.
A
Council's
just
in
closing,
before
we
put
this
to
a
vote,
I
just
want
to
look
very
optimistically
at
the
the
future
and
in
particular
the
opportunity
that
we
have
at
the
green
heart.
A
The
green
heart
gives
us
an
opportunity
to
plant
over
500
000
trees,
five
hundred
thousand
trees
in
the
central
part
of
the
gold
coast
and
I'd
hope
through
that
process.
There's
an
opportunity
for
the
community
to
get
their
hands
dirty
in
in
creating
that
precinct.
A
Just
looking
at
the
and
creek
before
and
after
images
makes
me
very
excited
about
what
can
be
done
along
the
mudrabah
creek,
now,
I'm
sure
councillor,
toza,
council
lacaster
will
be
equally
excited
about
what
that
might
do
in
terms
of
not
only
stabilizing
the
creek
and
making
it
more
resilient,
but
what
it
means
in
terms
of
water
quality
downstream.
So
I
think
we
need
a.
We
need
to
take
a
fresh
look
at
naturally
gc
to
rise
to
the
opportunity
that
we
have
the
green
hearts.
A
G
Thank
you
before
I
head
off
yeah
just
I
really
want
to
thank
you
guys
again
for
supporting
the
programs
and
sharing
that
information
and
getting
involved
getting
your
hands
dirty
coming
out
to
our
tree
planting
days.
It's
absolutely
fantastic,
and
it
just
makes
me
so
proud
to
see
the
city
supporting
these
programs.
So
thank
you
so
much
awesome.
A
All
right
councillors,
we
now
turn
to
our
last
item
for
today.
Item
7.1:
it's
the
country,
paradise
parklands,
draft
strategic
direction
report.
We
have
our
presenter
scott
kruger.
A
A
A
Okay,
council
young,
are
you
comfortable
from
a
stakeholder
management
point
of
view
having
this
in
open,
yeah
great
so
again,
counselors
just
to
make
clear
we
are
dealing
with
gray
pages.
If
there
are
questions
around
financial
information
just
grab
my
attention,
we
will
then
move
into
close,
but
we
can
keep
the
meeting
in
the
open
thanks.
I
Scott,
thank
you,
mr
chair.
Before
I
start,
can
I
just
ask
just
get
an
indication
of
how
many
people
have
actually
been
out
to
country
paradise,
parklands.
I
I
So
for
those
councillors
who
haven't
been
out
country,
paradise,
parklands
is
located
west
of
narang
township
about
five
minutes
outside.
It
is
a
district
park
that
was
indicated
before
and
we
picked
this
park
up
back
in
2011.
It
previously
was
a
rural
theme
park.
I
guess
you
could
call
it
and
old
buildings
a
nice
country
feel
and
in
2012
council
endorsed
a
management
model
that
looked
after
the
right-hand
side
of
the
image
that
you've
got
up
on
here.
That
management
model
was
having
niran
country.
I
Paradise
association
manage
the
park
pretty
much
on
behalf
of
on
behalf
of
council
and
look
to
implement
a
concept
plan
that
was
also
endorsed
by
council
last
year.
We
picked
sorry
earlier
this
year
we
picked
up
number
six,
which
is
which
has
actually
taken
the
parkland
from
13
hectares
to
18
hectares.
So
there's
a
very
good
opportunity
for
us
to
actually
develop
this
district
park
into
a
park
of
regional
significance.
I
It
is,
it
was
basically
a
rural
property
that
had
a
house
and
a
pool
and
sheds
and
a
bunch
of
other
stuff
on
there.
So,
there's
a
fair
bit
of
work
that
needs
to
be
done
in
that
space
to
to
blend
it
together.
I
Something
else
that
I
really
want
to
articulate
is
that
at
the
bottom
of
the
park
it
has
crane
creek
and
that
creek
floods,
when
it
floods,
it
really
floods
this
property,
the
property
is
actually
half
of
it
is
quite
flat,
and
then
it
goes
up
the
hill
towards
towards
the
back
end.
I
I
I
It's
a
really
cool
local
community
feel
out
there
and
the
activities
that
that
go
on
there
really
bring
people
together.
I
think
it's
it's
an
amazing
space
and
it's
certainly
unique.
I
feel
in
terms
of
what
we've
got
here
in
the
city.
Visitation
to
the
parklands
is
very
high.
There's
a
number
of
different
events
that
happen
there.
I
Let
me
just
go
back
here.
At
the
start
of
this
year,
we
actually
put
in
a
application
to
passing
leisure,
australia.
I
think
that
you
would
have
seen
it
through
council.
I
think
sam
got
up
and
and
received
some
presentation
in
regards
to
this
and
country
paradise
park
lands
their
place
base
above
half
a
million
dollars.
I
received
the
state
award
and
we're
also
going
to
for
the
national
award
in
october,
so
this
play
space
is
just
it's
super
cool
and
it
actually
has
brought
a
different.
I
I
guess
type
of
person
to
the
parklands.
You
know
families
mums
and
dads
with
bubs
kids
during
the
week.
It's
really
fantastic.
It's
a
rural
type
setting,
and
I
think
that
it's
also
something
where
people
just
don't
turn
up
for
half
an
hour
and
experience
the
the
playground
they
really
stay
for
one
to
two
hours.
I
In
terms
of
tenure.
We
have
eight
organizations
on
site,
that's
through
a
license
agreement.
So
currently
we
we
normally
have
lease
agreements
with
community
organizations.
The
license
agreements
have
been
put
in
place
because,
realistically,
the
facilities
aren't
up
to
scratch
to
be
able
to
actually
get
them
to
look
after
those
facilities
properly.
I
In
terms
of
assets,
I've
said
before
that
they're
old
country
buildings,
there's
660
assets
on
site,
and
that's
actually
only
talking
about
the
assets
that
we
currently
have
within
the
older
sections
so
expect
there
to
be
more.
I
I
I
That's
right
that
actually.
I
Right
next
to
that,
there's
two
six
by
fours
holding
that
up
so
very
interesting.
I
So
with
those
tenure
scenarios
with
the
asset
management
issues
and
challenges
that
we
have
on
site,
we
asked
a
local
consultant
to
come
along
and
provide
us
with
a
strategic
direction
report.
First
of
all,
it's
looking
at
the
vision
of
the
parklands
and
you
can
see
below
the
in
the
green
riding.
I
It's
delivering
that
parkland
of
significant
of
regional
significance
and
co-managing
the
public
areas,
because,
from
our
perspective,
the
number
of
community
organizations
that
are
on
site,
we
don't
want
to
lose
that
involvement
and
improvement
that
they've
undertaken
through
this
space.
I
think
that
that's
really
important
and
we
need
to
keep
that
going.
I
We
have
noticed
that
there
is
opportunity
to
improve
the
level
of
investment
within
this
parkland,
not
only
to
get
it
up
to
a
park
land
of
regional
significance,
but
there's
certainly
a
lot
of
asset
management
issues
that
we've
got
or
challenges
that
we
have
and
identify
the
most
appropriate
management
model.
So
the
management
model
that
we
had
in
2012
or
started
off
with
in
2012,
probably
isn't
the
right
management
model
that
we
need
moving
forward
to
deliver
a
parkland
of
regional
significance.
I
I
There's
two
other
areas
of
significance
that
I
want
to
point
out:
one's
on
the
north
west
or
the
top
right
hand;
side,
that's
a
horticultural
hub
and
that's
something.
That's
really
strong
within
what's
currently
happening
here,
but
secondly,
over
to
the
left-hand
side.
On
the
sorry,
the
northwest
that
sort
of
orangey
rob
yep
that
one
there.
Thank
you
that's
also
for
a
community
hub
space.
So
it's
trying
to
deliver
additional
community
support
in
that
space.
It's
quite
flat,
even
though
it's
up
in
the
higher
levels
of
the
parkland.
I
I
I
Now
we've
done
this
strategically,
because
we
know
that
we
have
come
to
you
previously
with
some
significant
arts
within
the
parks
and
recreational
services
area,
focusing
on
areas
like
busy
park,
botanic
gardens
and
also
some
acquisitions.
Further
up
plus
greenheart.
I
was
getting
to
that
plus
greenheart,
which
is
going
to
have
500
000
trees
put
into
there
500
000
trees.
I
So
the
the
management
model
there
were
four
options
that
were
put
up.
One
is
the
current
model.
The
second
one
is
the
revised
partner
model,
which
focuses
on
trying
to
get
the
city
looking
at
the
operations
and
maintenance
within
that
space
and
allowing
the
community
groups
to
actually
focus
on
activating
the
space
rather
than
focusing
on
trying
to
renew
maintain.
E
It
just
concerns
the
model
which
is
being
spoken
to.
I
just
wondered:
has
the
ncpa
been
responsible
for
maintenance
in
the
same
way
that
sporting
clubs
are
for
their
leased
facility
and
if
so,
have
we
a
record
of
how
much
funding
has
been
contributed
if
any
to
maintenance
of
these
structures
over
the
last
11
years.
I
Ncpa
have
been
doing,
maintenance,
works
and,
and
so
has
council.
So
there
has
been.
There
obviously
has
been
significant
funding
that
has
been
going
through,
but
it
certainly
hasn't
been
enough
to
get
them
up
to
appropriate
standard
to
turn
those
areas
into
lease
areas.
That's
the
reason
why
that
they
are
currently
licenses
and
ncpa
has
a
management
over
the
site,
but
there's
eight
organizations
that
have
license
areas
as
well.
So
it's
it's
it's
something
that
that's
one
of
the
things
that
we
really
need
to
improve
on.
So.
E
I
The
these
were
the
four
the
one
that
was
recommended
and
the
one
that
council
officers
and
recommend
also
is
the
revised
partner
model,
because
this
enables
the
city
to
do
what
they
do
well
in
terms
of
maintaining
and
managing
the
operations
space
and
also
the
facilities
with
the
focus
on
trying
to
get
these
two
lease
areas
and
enables
the
community
groups
who
do
an
excellent
job
in
activation,
to
just
focus
on
activation
and
improve
the
opportunities
within
the
parklands.
C
Now
I
just
wondered
if
I
might
contribute
to
the
answer
to
councillor
gates
legitimate
question,
thanks
chairman,
when
the
site
was
inherited
by
or
purchased
by
council,
the
buildings
were
in
very
degraded,
dilapidated
state
and
the
committee
is
engaged
skilling
queensland
on
a
number
of
time
occasions
and
partly
funded
the
works
that
they've
undertaken,
which
has
been
to
the
benefit
of
the
city
of
hundreds
of
thousands
of
dollars
in
replacing
flooring
and
walls
replacing
air
conditioners.
C
C
So
there's
been
a
hell
of
a
lot
of
work
by
the
committee
in
in
establishing
or
maintaining
the
buildings
and
bringing
them
up
to
a
reasonable
standard,
but
never
to
the
point
where
we
really
need
to
get
a
case
in
point
recently.
They
secured
money
from
the
state
for
solar
panels,
which
have
recently
now
been
installed
on
top
of
the
big
barn,
which
is
one
of
those
central
buildings.
C
E
I
E
D
Thank
you,
madam
chairman.
Just
sorry,
mr
I
was
going
to
say.
A
D
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
So
exactly
right,
the
work
has
been
undertaken
in
the
report.
It
notes
that
there's
more
work
that
needs
to
be
assessed
so
that
new
block
of
land
that
we've
recently
acquired
when
we
really
need
to
understand
the
full
impact,
and
then
I
guess
the
full
financial
impact
of
what
that
might
look
like
for
council
and
we'll
bring
that
back
in
a
report.
D
E
Okay
and
just
one
other
question:
if
you
don't
mind
well,
I've
got
the
mic.
Is
there
sensitive
veg
there
on
that
recently
acquired
land.
I
Through
the
chair-
yes,
so
namu
is
looking
after
this
dark
green
area
and
we'll
locate
up
through.
So
you
can
see
that
there's
a
local
creek
line
and
crane
creek,
that's
indicated
there
so
they'll
be
looking
after
those
sections
and
they
currently
look.
After
now,
the
section
through
crank,
creek
and
get
support
through
organization
called
river
keepers
who
are
based
on
site
as
well.
I
Through
the
chair,
yes,
there
will
be
parts
of
there
will
be
sections
that's
been
undertaken
at
present
as
well.
Okay,.
A
And
if
you
could
remind
me,
council
gates
just
to
grab
you
after
the
meeting,
let's
have
a
chat
about.
Thank
you
that
attachment
any
further
questions.
Do
we
have
further
slides
there?
Scott?
That
is
all.
Thank
you.
Wonderful.
A
A
I
just
wonder
in
order
to
bring
to
a
head
the
financial
issues,
whether
we,
if
we
could
just
scroll
down
to
the
officer
recommendation
that
we
perhaps
modify
for
to
say
that
a
further
report
be
brought
to
council
no
later
than
early
2023.
A
Just
gives
us
an
opportunity
to
consider
the
financial
impact
of
the
the
decision
as
early
as
possible
and
provide
a
signal
to
the
community
that
will
bring
this
to
a
head
that
little
tweak
a
lot.
Yeah
won't
burden
city
offices,
but
it
will
send
a
signal
to
the
community
that
we
want
to
land
on
a
position
as
quickly
as
possible,
and
notably
we're
not
landing
on
that
today.
H
Chair,
I
have
been
to
the
parklands,
but
wasn't
familiar
with
just
how
many
groups
and
how
many
things
happening
on
the
site,
and
I
think,
you've
only
just
probably
scratched
the
surface
today,
based
off
my
discussions
with
council
young
about
everything
that
happens
out
there,
I'm
just
a
bit
interested
that
in
looking
at
option
two
and
the
proposed
amount
of
staffing
allocation
that
comes
with
that,
like
that
seems
like
a
very
few
hours
of
staff
time
to
take
on
such
a
big
site
with
that
many
assets
and
that
many
groups
and
whatnot
is
that
has
option
two
actually
got
enough
staff
time
in
it
enough
hours
to
do
this
job
properly.
I
Through
the
chair,
currently
the
that's
actually
providing
a
half
resource
to
run
the
operation
part
of
it.
We
will
still
have
the
community
groups
running
the
activation
side.
There
will
be
support
also
from
a
level
eight
to
run
the
strategic
part
of
the
plan
moving
into
the
15
years,
and
we
we
do
believe
that
it's
appropriate
right.
H
So
that's
maybe
not
a
reflection
of
new
resourcing,
that's
just
sorry
that
is
just
new
resourcing
proposed,
but
will
be
assisted
by
other
stuff.
So
I
think
that
would
be
good
in
future
detail
on
this
to
actually
understand
the
full
resourcing
aspect
of
it,
of
what
other
groups
have
to
be
involved
and
what
hours
it
takes.
Yeah.
A
Good
point
councilman
and
the
way
that
I'm
approaching
this
is
we've
decoupled.
The
investment
and
embellishment
decisions
from
the
operating
model
decision.
So
it
seems
like
a
modest
ask
in
comparison
to
the
the
full
plan
if
council
were
to
support
it
in
its
entirety,
but
it's
as
much
as
the
city
officers
need
and
I've
been
comfortable
asking
for
a
counselor,
tozer
question.
B
Did
you
when
you
changed
the
words
to
no
later
than
early
2023?
Did
you
do
that
with
a
view
to
ensuring
that
we
could
consider
it
as
part
of
the
special
budget
committee's
preparation
for
the
following
year's
budget,
or
how
did
you
I
would
like
that,
and
I
wondered
whether
you
might
mind
saying
bye.
You
know
by
april.
Look
just
so
it
can
be
considered
in
may.
A
My
to
answer
your
question:
no,
that
that
didn't
enter
my
mind.
For
me,
it
was
more
about
sending
a
signal
to
the
community,
almost
like
the
regional
botanic
gardens
that
we
were
serious
about
landing
on
a
position.
I
didn't
presume
to
involve
the
next
round
of
budgets
or
intervene
in
the
budget,
build
which
I
think
happens
a
bit
earlier
than
in
early
2023,
but
but
it
could
be
that
and
I'll
leave
it
up
to
the
director
that
there
is
an
ask,
but
it
might
also
be
too
early
council
told
us
I'll.
D
Through
you,
mr
chair,
we'll
do
our
very
best,
given
that
we
have
a
lot
of
information
already.
We
need
to
assess
really
this
new
land
and
do
a
little
bit
of
work.
We
can
make
our
best
efforts,
given
the
relative
maturity
of
this
one
compared
to
the
previous
one
that
we
might
be
able
to
feed
into
the
budget
process.
So
there.
B
Were
when
there
were
four
options
in
the
report
that
I
won't
talk
about,
but
officers
have
recommended
option
two
in
preparation
for
next
year's
budget
is
it
is
option
two,
what
kind
of
what
we're
looking?
Yes
right?
Okay,
so
it's
fair
to
say
that
at
least
option
two
with
some
potential
for
pending
this
report.
Some
capital
investment,
which
is
yet
to
be
confirmed
by
council,
would
need
to
be
reviewed
subsequent
to
that
report.
A
Cool,
that's
fine
awesome,
because
further
condition
assessment
might
just
might
necessitate
the
needing
of
capital
forward.
Absolutely
got
that
absolutely
counselor
hamill.
H
But
I'm
just
interested,
maybe
through
you
to
councillor
peter
young-
is
that
do
you
see
an
opportunity
that,
by
through
this
work
and
through
the
proposed
staffing
increase
to
start
with
and
and
what's
going
to
come
out
in
the
bigger
plan
that
there
will
be
a
chance
to
activate
the
park,
lands
even
more
and
see
more
community
groups
on
the
site
that
will
have
more
of
an
activation
and
utilization
in
your
area.
C
Response
thanks,
if
I
might
just
preface
the
response
by
saying
that
the
the
officer
in
council
responsible
for
country
paradise
at
the
moment,
deals
with
dozens
of
parklands,
and
this
is
just
one,
and
so
it's
always
been
a
point
of
congestion
if
you
like,
for
the
all
the
issues
that
country
paradise
to
go
through
this
one
officer,
and
it's
really
the
ability
to
progress.
Things
like
to
get
a
building
fixed
to
get
a
a
window
fixed
with
leaking
roofs,
all
that
sort
of
jazz
and
and
the
ability
to
expand
that
pipeline.
C
So
to
speak
by
virtue
of
this
increased
staffing
allocation
will
be
a
fantastic
blockage.
Opener
it's
really
going
to
help
considerably.
I
support
the
recommendation
in
terms
of
the
utilization,
the
parkland.
I
think
it
will
improve
it.
It
won't
necessarily
radically
improve
the
number
of
events
that
are
held
there
or
the
number
of
groups
that
might
be
able
to
be
accommodated
there,
but
it
will
improve
the
sustainability
of
the
whole
parkland,
because
at
the
moment
it's
very
frustrating.
C
For
example,
the
first
three
months
of
next
year,
they're
going
to
have
to
close
the
main
building,
which
is
a
revenue
generator
because
of
the
flooring
that
we
saw,
the
photograph
of
because
of
the
inundation
of
the
parkland
over
many
years,
like
it
would
flood
a
couple
of
times
a
year
that
building
and
the
the
floor
has
just
got
completely
wet.
Underneath
it's
just
collapsing.
H
C
Through
your
chair,
so
there's
two
aspects:
one
is
the
management
and
that
will
be
improved
by
virtue
of
the
additional
resource
we're
talking
about
on
in
the
report
and
that
will
facilitate
the
more
expedient
fixing
of
issues
fixing
your
buildings
to
make.
It
operate
a
lot
better
and
it
will
improve
the
capacity
of
the
association
to
manage
the
site
much
better.
But
the
key
issue
ultimately
is
going
to
be
the
investment
that
we
make
into
the
physical
infrastructure,
because
I
mentioned
that
rotting
flooring
on
the
oval
there's
a
big
shed.
C
We
saw
a
photograph
of
one
of
the
posts.
Now
the
officers
want
to
get
rid
of
that
big
shed
and
have
wanted
to
do
so
for
the
last
12
years,
and
the
community
is
desperately
trying
to
hang
on
to
that,
because
it
provides
much
needed,
shade
and
storage
for
some
community
groups.
So
we
don't
have
any
budget
to
replace
it.
C
It
will
have
to
come
out
because
of
the
the
public
danger
that
it
presents.
So
the
other
aspect
of
this
really
is
the
future
investment
which
has
been
really
lacking
in
the
last
decade
and
into
that
sort
of
infrastructure.
So,
for
we
just
purchased
that
site
next
door,
only
200
000
was
allocated
to
make
good.
That
is
to
remove
the
buildings
on
there
and
to
remove
rubbish
and
to
remove
a
little
bit
of
vegetation.
So
not
a
lot
of
money.
C
By
comparison,
we
allocated
double
that
amount
for
the
ashmore
site
that
we
purchased,
that
we
agreed
to
purchase
last
week
just
for
that
initial
remediation,
so
the
200
000
that
was
left
over
from
the
purchase.
It
just
isn't
a
lot
of
money
and
it's
not
going
to
get
us
a
long
way.
So
that
report
that
will
come
to
us
early
next
year
is
critical
in
that.
How
we
deal
with
that
and
how
we
we
look
at
this.
Just
as
we
look
at
all
other
parklands,
it's
an
investment,
that's
going
to
realize
a
real
public
benefit.
C
It
really
has
been
managed
very
well,
given
the
circumstances
I
take.
My
head
off
to
the
committee
present
and
pass
they've
done
a
lot
of
work
they
really
have,
and
the
facility
is
really
very
well
loved
by
the
community.
It's
people
are
just
so
engaged
with
it.
They
love
it
and
it's
all
about
the
character,
and
so
we've
been
lucky
to
have
the
old
buildings
that
have
been
able
to
be
preserved.
C
We've
had
that
public
investment
into
the
park
into
the
playground,
which
is
which
mimics
the
country
feel
and
has
presented
a
really
good
opportunity
for
the
city
and
that's
the
kind
of
example.
You
know.
If
we
didn't
have
that
playground,
the
utilization
of
the
park
would
be
a
lot
less
than
it
is
now.
That's
really
opened
it
up,
as
scott
said,
to
a
whole
new
audience
who
are
appreciating
not
only
the
playground
but
the
other
aspects
of
the
park.
C
A
Yeah
thanks
councillor
young
and
really
value
your
input
of
you
know
someone
who's
connected
with
the
area
and
as
the
divisional
council,
I
think
your
best
place
to
provide
us
with
some
advice
before
coming
to
councillor
gates
director.
When
that
report
does
come
in
by
early
2023.
D
Yes,
mr
chair
to
through
you
to
the
councillors,
absolutely
that
is,
that
is
part
of
the
process
we'll
have
to
apply
to
this
and
other
similar
parks.
So
you
mentioned
one
in
your
division:
council
hamel.
There
are
a
bunch
of
these
assets
across
the
city
that
we
need
to
have
a
good
hard
look
at
and
to
prioritize
what
needs
to
be
done
in
these
circumstances,
where
there
is
asset
where
there
are
assets
that
are
failing
and
there's
opportunities
that
can
be
realised.
A
Counselor
o'neill
from
the
chair's
perspective,
I
think
that's
going
to
enjoy
some
broad
support
here,
councillor,
young,
but
council
gates.
Would
you
like
to
open?
I.
E
I've
only
been
there
a
couple
of
times
since
then,
but
I
do
recall
recently
or
a
couple
of
years
back
going
there
for
a
celebration
for
the
ses
at
the
end
of
one
of
our
disaster
periods
and
that
big
shed
it
was.
It
was
just
amazing,
and
I
mean
there
were
movie
nights
under
that
big
shed,
so
inclement
weather
never
ever
impacted
on
our
movie
nights,
which
it
does
for
most
of
us,
because
we
just
don't
have
access
to
a
facility
like
country,
paradise,
parkland.
A
What
a
great
outcome
counselors
with
any
speakers
against
the
motion
councillor
young,
would
you
like
to
add
some
further
comments?
It's.
C
Very
kind
of
you
thanks
gemini
I'll,
be
brief,
but
I
would
like
to
recognise
the
support
that
the
community
enjoyed
through
councillor
gates,
vote
in
support
of
acquisit
acquiring
the
site
in
2011.
Also
councillor
la
castro,
who
I
remember,
lobbying
those
that
kind
of
support
was
critical
at
the
time
and
the
results
speak
for
themselves.
It's
a
beautiful,
unique
parkland.
It
is
absolutely
wonderful-
and
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
for
us
to
be
discussing
this
today
and
look
forward
to
the
outcome.
Thanks
chairman
great.
A
Thank
you
councillor,
young
council
coach.
Did
you
wish
to
great
I'll
put
that
to
a
vote
all
those
in
favor
and
given
that
a
declaration
was
made,
I'm
just
going
to
call
the
division
on
the
vote.
Councillor
gates,
councillor
caldwell,
caldwell,
council,
councillor
castro,
councillor
toza,
councillor,
o'neill,
council
of
awesome,
those
against
no,
and
if
we
could
just
record
that
council
young
did
not
vote.
Even
though
he's
not
a
member
an
abundance
of
caution,
wonderful
great
outcome,
counselors,
any
general
business
items
today.
A
Counselors
I'll
close
the
meeting
at
10
47..
Thank
you.
