What a SHAME
The Council didn't act on the Report/s they commissioned GH&D to prepare
about Upgrading the SurfAir Precinct as The
Gateway to the Sunshine Coast all those
YEARS ago.
At least
two such Public Consultation Processes have been PAID for by Maroochy Ratepayers
only to be Shelved and Ignored by successive Administrations.
If they had
followed up and BUILT the Landscaped Boulevard GH&D envisaged, the
CHOGM VIPs and the Queen (and the WORLD) would have had a much better
FIRST Impression of our corner of the world than the Existing
GROTTY Race Track past SurfAir.
It
was also the LAST memory of us they took away as they departed.

The Council
Employee who does the most damage to Council Public Relations is their
latest, over zealous Dog Catcher who patrols deserted beaches in his new
4WD on the lookout for CRIMINALS who flout the letter of the law he is
sworn to uphold by allowing their pets to go for a run off-leash.
At our August
2002 meeting we were told by Council Officials that the reason for 50%
of all Marcoola Dog Owners being fined recently was that there were over
7000 dog complaints in the last 12 months and 121
of them came from the Marcoola area. -- Gee, that equates to less
than 1%.
We applied
to have a small section of beach between M47 and M50 declared an off-leash
zone for this purpose but to no avail. (It's
too good a revenue raiser at $150 an offence)
