Russell ODoherty Interview14Aug19

Proposed community meetings to inform ratepayers about the nuts and bolts of  the Healthy Reef Partnership with Qantas, GreenCollar, and Tourism Port Douglas Daintree have been put on the back burner with no indication of where and when they will be held.

 

The only Councillor to vote against it at the time was Michael Kerr.

 

The decision by Councillors to vote in the deal back in June saw rate payer backlash and even  a petition organised by Russell O’Doherty titled 'Stop the Douglas Shire Council from purchasing unwanted carbon credits' was presented to Council.

 

The highly controversial partnership enables Council to become carbon neutral by purchasing  carbon offsets located in Rawbelle, Queensland about 400ks inland from Bundaberg and 1500 ks from the Douglas Shire. 

 

 

Paul chats with Russell O’Doherty about this latest shock revelation

Angela Freeman Interview 13Aug19

Paul chats with the owner of Hartley’s Crocodile Adventures Angela Freeman who has raised concerns over a new tourist sign erected on the Captain Cook Highway which she believes is potentially dangerous.

A series of signs pointing out tourism highlights along the scenic drive have recently been put up, including one for the popular Rex Lookout.

Angela says the sign at Wangetti indicates the lookout 2km ahead is on the right and this wrongfully implied motorists should turn right at the lookout, rather than using the car park on the left.

Angela and her family were almost in a serious crash at the lookout and wants something done about the confusion.

The lookout is located on a sharp corner with double white lines where a right-hand turn from the northbound lane is illegal.
