Community Jury - Management of the Noosa River
Consultation has concluded
This consultation has now closed and the final delivery of the project is underway. Thank you for all your input which has helped shape this project for the community.
A clean and healthy Noosa River that is visually appealing is vital to the local tourism industry and the lifestyle Noosa residents enjoy.
There are ongoing concerns regarding abandoned and derelict vessels, pollution and clutter in the river, and changes to commercial jetty leases which may lead to uncontrolled increases in commercial operations.

How can we manage the Noosa River better? What role should Council play and what resources should Council apply?
