The public submission process for the Weinam Creek Priority Development Area in Redland Bay has now opened.
Mayor Karen Williams said Council was redeveloping the site to provide the community infrastructure that was required.
“Council’s proposed master plan, which will be delivered in stages, will transform the waterfront of Redland Bay, improve the usability of the transport hub, attract visitors, create jobs and drive economic development in the area, while providing much needed increased parking solutions for the Redland Bay Marina Ferry Terminal and the Southern Moreton Bay Island community,” Cr Williams said.

- A new boat ramp to separate emergency and public access
