Paper Petition

The petition of residents of Queensland draws to the attention of the
House the concerns of the dealings by the State Government with the
property known as Tripcony/Hibiscus Caravan Park site and located at the
corner Park Place, Bowman Road and Bulcock Street, Caloundra. Of
particular concern is: the direction from the minister for Local
Government and Planning to Caloundra City Council in relation to the
draft Caloundra City Plan; advice from the State Government and the
possibility of the property being given freehold status.

Your petitioners therefore request the House to: not approve the request
to Freehold the said property in anyway, shape or form; take all
appropriate steps to change the ministerial direction upon Caloundra City
Council’s Draft City Plan and formulate a new ministerial directive in
conjunction with Caloundra residents, Caloundra City Council and the
State Government to develop a united strategic direction for the future
of the site; take all appropriate steps to return the said property back
under the trusteeship of Caloundra City Council; not allow any
commercial, state, local or public interest being able to convert the
property to Freehold land, now or in the future.
