Jason Costigan
Speech by Jason Costigan MEMBER FOR WHITSUNDAY Hansard Wednesday, 30 May 2012 MAIDEN SPEECH Mr COSTIGAN (Whitsunday—LNP) (4.08 pm): It gives me tremendous pleasure to rise as the first LNP member for Whitsunday, fulfilling my dream of representing a region that is very dear to my heart. First, though, I take this opportunity to congratulate the Speaker of the House on her historic appointment; the Premier, the Hon. Campbell Newman MP, on his historic election; and all members on their success in being part of the 54th Parliament. I look around the House and think back to 1865, when the foundation stone was laid—the same year that my great-great-grandfather came to Mackay as a pioneering police officer, having previously served as an officer of the Royal Irish Constabulary before arriving in Queensland. Pat Costigan served in Mackay and nearby Walkerston and by 1873 took up his posting as the first officer in charge at Nebo. Five generations later, there is still plenty of Nebo in my DNA. In fact, the Costigans have been in Queensland before there even was a Queensland, with William Costigan being part of that famous but ill-fated expedition to the north led by Edmund Kennedy way back in 1848, landing on the shores of Rockingham Bay north of present-day Cardwell. I come from humble stock in what used to be called the Brigalow Belt, well before the term ‘Bowen Basin’ became part of Queensland’s vernacular, with the emergence of the juggernaut that is now the coalmining industry in the Mackay-Whitsunday hinterland. -

Local Heritage Register
Explanatory Notes for Development Assessment Local Heritage Register Amendments to the Queensland Heritage Act 1992, Schedule 8 and 8A of the Integrated Planning Act 1997, the Integrated Planning Regulation 1998, and the Queensland Heritage Regulation 2003 became effective on 31 March 2008. All aspects of development on a Local Heritage Place in a Local Heritage Register under the Queensland Heritage Act 1992, are code assessable (unless City Plan 2000 requires impact assessment). Those code assessable applications are assessed against the Code in Schedule 2 of the Queensland Heritage Regulation 2003 and the Heritage Place Code in City Plan 2000. City Plan 2000 makes some aspects of development impact assessable on the site of a Heritage Place and a Heritage Precinct. Heritage Places and Heritage Precincts are identified in the Heritage Register of the Heritage Register Planning Scheme Policy in City Plan 2000. Those impact assessable applications are assessed under the relevant provisions of the City Plan 2000. All aspects of development on land adjoining a Heritage Place or Heritage Precinct are assessable solely under City Plan 2000. ********** For building work on a Local Heritage Place assessable against the Building Act 1975, the Local Government is a concurrence agency. ********** Amendments to the Local Heritage Register are located at the back of the Register.

Heritage Citation Lutwyche Cemetery & Sexton's Residence Key details Also known as Kedron Brook Cemetery Addresses At 418 Gympie Road, Kedron, Queensland 4031 Type of place Work residence, Cemetery Period Interwar 1919-1939, Victorian 1860-1890 Style Bungalow Lot plan L753_SL8480 Key dates Local Heritage Place Since — 1 July 2003 Date of Citation — December 2010 Date of Citation — December 2010 Page 1 Criterion for listing (A) Historical; (B) Rarity; (D) Representative; (E) Aesthetic; (G) Social Lutwyche Cemetery was established in 1878. Designed in the traditional grid-like layout, popular in the Victorian era, the cemetery is demonstrative of the early European community’s need for burial grounds. The fabric, setting and context of the site are all important. The cemetery has distinct sections which show its evolution from a Victorian cemetery, established in the 1870s, to one that includes newer forms of burial, such as the war and lawn cemeteries. Within the cemetery grounds is an early and intact shelter built in 1891 and the sexton’s residence, a substantial interwar timber house on the corner of Gympie and Kitchener Roads. The cemetery has an important Commonwealth War Graves Commission burial section on the site which contains 386 World War II graves. Mature trees on the site, which include rows of Camphor Laurel and Cypress Pine trees, add to the site’s significance and visual appeal. History “Cemeteries not only help explain our past, they also provide a sense of continuity and identity. So our burial grounds reflect vital aspects of our social, religious, folk, architectural, literary and botanical history which are not found in such a combination in any other place.”1 1 After the declaration of Queensland as a colony, separate to New South Wales, in 1859, the new Queensland Government was anxious to increase the colony’s population and to encourage agricultural settlements. -
