We
have raised our concerns with Council urging them to
address and rectify a number of serious safety and design
issues with the Doonan Bridge Road upgrade, but no
effective changes have been made to date! This led local
residents to protest onsite on 20 Jan 2018, however
Council still have not addressed any of their concerns.
Road construction is continuing despite the many safety
issues and opposition to the current road design.
Furthermore, Council has not considered the
recommendations and hazards identified by two independent,
accredited road engineers commissioned by residents. The
list of safety concerns are falling on deaf ears (!) and
residents fear an avoidable tragic lost of life. Read more.
We are
a community group striving to protect the values we share
to retain the natural rural amenity of our suburb and
lifestyles. A group empowering like-minded ratepayers to
bring our local council back to the people, through open
engagement and transparency. We strive to protect our
native flora & fauna, and the natural country ambience
the area has.
We love our serene rural suburb
with it's many natural attributes in this Sunshine Coast
hinterland region. There are numerous endangered and
unique flora and fauna species within Verrierdale, which
we endeavour to protect from inappropriate development and
other negative damaging effects.
