Update 10 March 2016 Toondah Harbour has slowed down again under Labor. Many months of progress have been lost since February 2015, and jobs for Redland tradies and businesses put on hold. Labor are in no hurry to get this development through, using extensions with the Federal Government as a cover for their lack of commitment to the project. While Mayor Karen Williams and Andrew Laming are doing a good job, State Labor are continuing to hold Cleveland back. Priority Development Area Declared 10 December 2015 “Without the LNP Government’s economic development legislation that created Priority Development Areas, this LNP project would not have happened.” There are many aspects to this development which need careful consideration in planning and implementation such as the GJ Walter Park, public space, good amenities, dog walking area, environmental care in the marine park. The final approvals mean Toondah can go ahead at pace. Congratulations to Mayor Karen Williams and the Councillors who supported this major LNP project.

Master Plan Released December 2015 It’s exciting news for Cleveland with the Walker Group releasing their Master Plan for Toondah Harbour. This long-awaited development will create many employment opportunities for our area. This LNP project provides a new Redlands tourism destination, a gateway to Stradbroke Island and Moreton Bay, an enhanced waterfront lifestyle and community, it repects and conserves the local recreational and environmental values and will book the economy and jobs in the region. I am proud of this LNP Project that our PDA legislation produced. Full details of the plan can be found on the link below. http://toondah-harbour.com.au/downloads/master-plan-informa- tion-memorandum-2015-11-24.pdf
