Marcoola Beach
Neighbourhood Network

History


HISTORY

The Marcoola Neighborhood Network was formed in November 1998 in response to the then latest AIRPORT MASTER PLAN, mainly because the Local Progress Association refused to represent the views and feelings of  most of the local residents.
This Web Site was subsequently set up to publicise our views on this matter.
At the next General Meeting
of The Progress Association in 1999, our members were overwhelmingly voted into office as the new Executive Committee and this web site was converted to be the Official Site for the Marcoola Progress Association and continued to be so for the following four years.
By 2002 the Airport had ceased to be the Main Issue and many of the original Network members had lost interest and resigned. The site was taken up with other projects such as Dune Restoration etc.
However in 2003, due to a dispute with the Maroochy Shire Council over the actions of the Local Laws Officers and, in particular, the Dog Catcher, I was forced to resign as President and the incoming Executive Committee requested that this Site be Dismantled.
But since it was never their's to begin with, I simply re-converted it BACK to the Original NETWORK  and removed any reference to the Progress Association.

In the light of the LATEST AIRPORT MASTER PLAN (Version 2006), I have now reserected it to reflect the feelings of most of my Neighbours as once again the Local Progress Association seem to be ignoring the issue.

I REITERATE THAT THIS WEB SITE IN NO WAY REPRESENTS THE VIEWS OF THE MARCOOLA PROGRESS ASSOCIATION OR IT'S MEMBERS.
