An independent, unofficial record of Noosa Shire Council — what council decided, what they closed the doors on, and why it matters. About this site

Noosa Council meetings since 2014: papers, decisions and recordings, and from April 2023 the video cued to each item.

General Committee Meeting - 24 October 2022

Monday 24 October 2022 · General Committee Meeting · 16 decisions minuted

This meeting predates council's current meetings system, which begins in April 2023, so there is no agenda here with each item cued to the video. What follows is what the record holds: council's papers, the recording, and the decisions its minutes record.

Papers

Council keeps papers from before April 2023 on a separate archive page for each year, listed by meeting date. The files stay on council's site — why.
