  • Road Networked Artificial Islands and Finger Island Canal Estates on Australia’S Gold Coast
    Absolute Waterfrontage: Road Networked Artificial Islands and Finger Island Canal Estates on Australia’s Gold Coast Philip Hayward Kagoshima University Research Center for the Pacific Islands, University of Technology Sydney, & Southern Cross University, Lismore [email protected] Christian Fleury University of Caen, Normandy [email protected] Abstract: The Gold Coast, an urban conurbation stretching along the Pacific seaboard and adjacent hinterland of south east Queensland, has developed rapidly since the 1950s. Much of its development has involved the modification of existing watercourses so as to produce stable areas of land suitable for medium and high density development. This article addresses one particular facet of this, the development of artificial islands and of estates of ‘finger islands’ (narrow, peninsular areas with direct waterfrontage) and the canalised waterways that facilitate them. The article commences with a discussion of the concepts behind such developments and the nomenclature that has accrued to them, highlighting the contradictions between branding of finger island estates and the actualities of their realisation. This discussion is supported by historical reference to earlier artificial island estates in Florida that provided a model for Australian developers. Case studies of three specific Gold Coast waterfront locations conclude the main body of the article, reflecting on factors related to the stability of their community environments.

  • GUIDE FOR... Anchoring, Mooring and Grounding Restrictions
    GUIDE FOR... Anchoring, Mooring and Grounding Restrictions RULES APPLY TO ANCHORING IN GOLD COAST WATERWAYS… Why Limit Anchoring? There are time limits for anchoring in some Gold Coast waters that are in particularly high demand. This operates like parking restrictions for vehicles in city centres or camping restrictions in national parks. Limits are needed so that everyone gets a fair go at anchoring in the most sought after locations. The map on the reverse side shows certain prohibited areas and other restrictions. Following is a summary of these rules. Anchoring and mooring boats is restricted to 24 hours on most rivers, creeks and canals and to seven days in most parts of the Broadwater. Anchoring and mooring time restrictions do not apply to boats moored to an approved buoy mooring, jetty or pontoon if you own it or have permission to use it. Anchoring or mooring boats within 30 metres of a buoy mooring, jetty or pontoon whether occupied or not, is prohibited. These rules are enforceable under the Transport Infrastructure (Waterways Management) Regulation 2012. Enforcement agencies can issue on the spot fines for breaches of these rules.

  • The 2053 South Queensland Flood
    THE 2053 SOUTH QUEENSLAND FLOOD Only Young Water Professionals Need Attend ABSTRACT A ‘roadshow’ of flood engineers in the early 1980s ‘prophesised’ the flooding that occurred in South East Queensland (SE QLD) during 2011 to 2015. The events of 2011 to 2015 may have given increased credibility to a long-held notion that SE QLD may be subject to a 40-year flood cycle. This paper examines the data on flooding within the ten major SE QLD catchments, bounded by three mountain ranges and comprising more than 63,000 km2. The purpose was to test the existence and the strength of any regularity to flooding in this well-populated region of Australia. The approach identifies the flooding that occurred during predetermined five-year periods that were 35 years apart – the 40-year cycle – and the flooding that occurred outside of these nominated 5-year periods. The basic statistics were weighted for the length of flood record, catchment area, ranking of flood, and a combination of these factors. The results indicate that 69-87% of major floods in SE QLD have occurred within a set of five-year periods exactly 35 years apart. No explanation is offered at this stage of the research. The implications for traditional hydrologic methods are outlined. Keywords: Flooding, flood cycles, regularity, flood frequency INTRODUCTION The early years of the 1970s in South East Queensland was a period of multiple flooding events, remembered mostly for the January 1974 flooding of Brisbane. The following decade was one that experienced widespread estuarine development, where State and Local Government concerns that the development be above the 1in100AEP flood on top of a cyclonic surge, with allowance for future water level rises due to global climatic change, engaged a community of engineers who specialised in relevant fields.

The Strategy was prepared in response to the Speed Limits Review consultation undertaken in 2014. Accordingly, it’s not surprising that many of the views represented here reflect those put forward in 2014, whether in agreement with components of the Strategy or offering alternatives considered in preparing the Strategy.

  • 15. Members of Tne Nerang Kiver Tribe at Their Campsite Near Southport
    15. Members of tne Nerang Kiver tribe at their campsite near Southport, circa 1889. 16. THE GOLD COAST: ITS FIRST INHABITANTS by R.I. Longhurst B.A. (Hons) A.L.A.A.* We know very little about the aboriginal inhabitants of the Gold Coast, or at least much less than we know about neighbouring areas where tribal members survived to be interviewed by scientific researchers this century. Much of what we do know comes from the memoirs of early European settlers who more often than not regarded the few surviving aborigines as pitiful novelties, the objects of charity in the form of ragged clothing and alcohol. Only a very few, such as the early timber-getter Edmund Harper, ever tried to understand and learn from them.

The 1901 Queensland census was the first to actually provide statistics of the aboriginal population of the state. In the Logan stat­ istical division of which the Gold Coast was only a very small part, eighty-one aborigines, both full- and half-blood, were counted. This figure comprised forty-nine males, and thirty- two females.1 This compares with an estimate of 1500 to 2000 natives living in the watershed of the Logan, Albert, Coomera and Nerang Rivers in the 1850s.2 Harper, reminiscing in 1894, recalled the 'Tulgigin' tribe of the North Arm of the Tweed, numbering 'some two hundred. The men were nearly all big stout fellows, some of them over six feet in height, and weighing up to fourteen stone'.3 Laila Haglvmd's archaeological
