Council is seeking community and stakeholder feedback on the Draft Wallace Park Flying-fox Management Plan.

Council recognises the need to support impacted communities while also conserving flying-foxes and the critical ecological services they provide. The objectives of the Management Plan are to expand upon current management strategies aimed at mitigating impacts from flying-foxes on residents, park users and other stakeholders associated with the Wallace Park flying-fox camp.

For context, the site-specific Management Plan should be read in conjunction with Council’s recently developed Flying-fox Statement of Management Intent (SoMI) - view document on the right of this page.

The purpose of the SoMI is to articulate Council’s approach to flying-fox management across Noosa. This document provides guidance to staff, contractors, and private landholders on the management of flying-foxes under Commonwealth, state and local government environmental policy.

Your feedback on the Draft Wallace Park Flying-fox Management Plan

Your feedback is important to determine if the proposed management approaches within the Draft Wallace Park Flying-fox Management Plan meet your individual circumstances, values and or concerns.

After reading the Management Plan (in combination with the SoMI), Council encourages and welcomes all stakeholders to provide feedback on the Draft Wallace Park Flying-fox Management Plan by completing the survey below.

  • TEST CCS Post

    The south west site team received an impressive top score of 45/45 for an audit visit to their Plymouth Planned Maintenance site from the Considerate Constructors Scheme (CCS) after scoring top marks in each of the three categories.

    In August, a CCS monitor visited the scheme and carried out their audit of the site, commenting things like "Since the first visit the works have progressed and the estate appearance has undoubtedly been lifted by them. The environmental measures are to a high standard and focussed by the EQUANS net zero commitment. Health and safety performance has been independently recognised as being to the highest standards."

    The CCS is an independent organisation founded to raise standards in the construction industry to ensure all construction sites present an image of competent management, efficiency, awareness of environmental issues and above all neighbourliness. Monitors from the scheme regularly audit our sites to ensure we are adhering to the scheme’s Code of Considerate Practice which is designed to encourage best practice beyond statutory requirement.

    Each audit is split into three categories; respect for the community, protecting the environment and valuing the workforce each with a potential score out of 15 with a total combined max score of 45 available. To score above 13 in any category warrants an excellent level of achievement for that category.

    Congratulations to Frank, Karen and the rest of the site team, who work so hard every day to maintain such high standards
