  • Chapter 21 Economics
    SECTION 21 Economic Development Section 21 Economic Development October 2016 21.0 Economic Development 21.1 Introduction The economic environment and the economic impact from the development of the Port Expansion Project (PEP) are discussed in Chapter B.19 (Economic Development) of the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). The economic assessment discussed the existing and future demand for Port capacity. The assessment defined and assessed a base case against the expected developed port to identify any positive or negative impacts during the construction and operation phases. The estimated economic benefit (in present values), of the Project was estimated to be of around $1,500 million. Socio-economic impacts were also assessed, including housing, commercial fishing, labour markets and employment. This section provides responses to submissions from public consultation and the results of new analysis that identifies the economic role of the Port in the region, and regional risks resulting from capacity constraints of the Port. This chapter section is not intended to represent a business case for the PEP, or an update on an existing business case for the PEP, however the information presented here is required under the Terms of Reference to provide context for economic impacts. Key matters raised within the submission process include: . justification of the need to expand the Port of Townsville in context of present berth utilisation . the role of the port in the economic stability, sustainability and development of North Queensland and the risks and flow-on effects of removing this capacity . consideration of using alternative ports to cater for increased demand, especially any future coal exports .

  • Highways Byways
    Highways AND Byways THE ORIGIN OF TOWNSVILLE STREET NAMES Compiled by John Mathew Townsville Library Service 1995 Revised edition 2008 Acknowledgements Australian War Memorial John Oxley Library Queensland Archives Lands Department James Cook University Library Family History Library Townsville City Council, Planning and Development Services Front Cover Photograph Queensland 1897. Flinders Street Townsville Local History Collection, Citilibraries Townsville Copyright Townsville Library Service 2008 ISBN 0 9578987 54 Page 2 Introduction How many visitors to our City have seen a street sign bearing their family name and wondered who the street was named after? How many students have come to the Library seeking the origin of their street or suburb name? We at the Townsville Library Service were not always able to find the answers and so the idea for Highways and Byways was born. Mr. John Mathew, local historian, retired Town Planner and long time Library supporter, was pressed into service to carry out the research. Since 1988 he has been steadily following leads, discarding red herrings and confirming how our streets got their names. Some remain a mystery and we would love to hear from anyone who has information to share. Where did your street get its name? Originally streets were named by the Council to honour a public figure. As the City grew, street names were and are proposed by developers, checked for duplication and approved by Department of Planning and Development Services. Many suburbs have a theme. For example the City and North Ward areas celebrate famous explorers. The streets of Hyde Park and part of Gulliver are named after London streets and English cities and counties.

  • Mungalla Past and Present
    Mungalla Past and Present 2018 ungalla Station is located in north Queensland, between the cities of Townsville and Cairns, 12 kilometres east of the town of Ingham. This area is the traditional country of the Nywaigi Aboriginal people, who have occupied these lands for thou- M sands of years. Nywaigi ancestral land is approximately the coastal region from the Herbert River in the north to Rollingstone in the south, and to Stone River in the west. For 120 years however, Mungalla was the property of European settlers. From the 1860s Aboriginal people had been dispersed from the coastal areas of north Queensland as the sugar cane and cattle industries encroached on their traditional lands. The Mungalla cattle property was founded in 1882 by James Cassady, a pioneer of the north Queensland pastoral industry, but he allowed the Nywaigi people to continue living on the property and was a strong advocate for Aboriginal people. Howev- er, again in the twentieth century, Nywaigi and other Aboriginal people were forcibly removed from their ancestral lands under government-sponsored programmes. Many were relocated to Palm Is- land, off the nearby coast, which is not part of Nywaigi country. In 1999, when Mungalla was pur- chased by the Indigenous Land Corporation, the ownership returned to the Nywaigi people, who now own the 880 hectares that makes up the property today. The property was purchased to benefit the Aboriginal community financially, socially and spiritual- ly. The Mission Statement of the traditional owners is as follows: Mungalla Station is a resource owned by the Nywaigi Traditional Owners for the purpose of foster- ing Aboriginal cultural values by building economic and cultural opportunities through the careful use of our country as a legacy for our children.
