Park Safety Alert: Conondale Range Great Walk

A safety alert remains in effect for the Conondale Range Great Walk and parts of the Imbil State Forest.

Post-Cyclone Health and Recovery Notice

Following the recent impacts of Ex-Tropical Cyclone Narelle, recovery efforts continue across the Sunshine Coast. Residents are reminded to be vigilant regarding health risks in flood-affected areas. Queensland Health advises avoiding contact with standing floodwaters to prevent the risk of melioidosis. Financial assistance for personal hardship remains available for eligible community members impacted by the severe weather event.

Local Law Enforcement: Mobile Signage

Council issued a final reminder today regarding the enforcement of local laws related to movable advertising. Non-compliant mobile signage, including trailers used for advertising on public roads, must be removed by the close of business today, March 31, to avoid potential fines. This follows recent compliance notices issued in the Palmview area to protect community amenity and road safety.
