Our Current Chamber Projects

  1. Kooralbyn-Boonah Tourist Road. This is sub-Committee is being chaired by Peter McKenna, with the goal of promoting the construction of the tourist road from Kooralbyn to Boonah. This road has been gazetted and forms a part of the Whole of Shire Plan, and highlights the spectacular 360º views not available elsewhere .This sub-Committee is aiming to bring forward the construction and opening of this tourist road, which will give local business the opportunity to expand, as well as enabling better ambulance and fire emergency services for Kooralbyn.The closure of the Kooralbyn Resort has made this matter of utmost urgency, as we currently have no reason for tourists ( which is Kooralbyn's reason for being) to depart the Mt. Lindesay Highway.Other members of the subcommittee are Dave Poulgrain, John Noonan and Mark Somerset.
  2. Signage sub-Committee. This is sub-Committee is being chaired by John Noonan with the aim of improving the Shire's road signage, enabling visitors to the Shire to easily locate our Valley. This involves ongoing discussions with the Bligh Labor Government Main Roads Department. A joint letter from the KVCoC, KCA and The KRSL sub-branch have now asked Kev. Lindgard MP. to plead our case to the Qld Parliament.
  3. Kooralbyn Tourism Brochure. This is to produce a draft brochure for distribution at the Beaudesert, Rathdaowney and Canungra Information Offices, to encourage tourists to visit Kooralbyn and enjoy what we uniquely have to offer.
    Currently put on hold pending the outcome of the Kooralbyn resort sale.
