POONA LAKE perfect as it is
The Queensland Government is in the process of handing out 30 year private leases inside our National Parks for commercial development of luxury accommodation.
This is a major change to our National Parks, made without any public consultation.
Private land leases directly threaten National Park integrity. Five development sites are proposed for Cooloola National Park, including Double Island Point, Poona Lake and near Campsite 3 on the Noosa River.
These are some of the Park's most unique and sensitive places.
Private accommodation with dining and meeting spaces would provide wealthy visitors and corporate clients with luxury holidays in an exclusive location, whilst destroying significant natural and aesthetic values.
The Tourism Department is running our National Parks!
How is that OK?
This needs sorting out!
