Sunshine Coast Regional Council
Sunshine Coast Regional Council website
Sunshine Coast Regional Council became the name of the new Council for the region when the former councils of Noosa Shire, Maroochy Shire and Caloundra City became one entity from 15 March 2008.The Sunshine Coast covers an area of 3,127 km2 which includes113 km2 of waterways. The region has over 200 kilometres of coastline, over 4,000 km of roads, nearly 800 kilometres of bikeways and over 13,000 hectares of parks and bushland.
The broad coastal plains and foothills have been a focus for agriculture and urban development. These coastal areas merge westward into a backdrop of ranges, peaks and valleys occupied by a patchwork of forests, rural lands and small townships.
An attractive area with a mild sub-tropical climate, the Sunshine Coast provides a wide range of urban and rural lifestyle options and attracts local, national and international visitors.
The region has and will continue to experience levels of population growth that exceed state and national averages. However, many of the coastal centres and hinterland towns maintain particular elements that their communities value highly.
While well connected to the rest of South East Queensland, the extensive non urban break between the greater Brisbane area and the Sunshine Coast helps to preserve the regions identity and lifestyle.
