"a complete inability to manage the entire region as one". Yes, parochialism is a problem and yes many councillors try to appease the majority of voters so as to ensure re-election. However, growth without increased jobs is madness. I would support balanced growth, but when have we had it in this region? Dan,

It's a question that worries a lot of residents and one that the Hervey Bay Council of the time wasn't much interested in talking about. Somehow I think that the Fraser Coast Regional Council is even less interested in considering it now even though it's something they should be looking at very carefully. Perhaps they hope that the Water Park will take our minds off the fact that there's a growing demand for water but the it's a resource that's limited.

A lack of water and a depressed economy suggest now is a good time to slow growth in our area. Bigger is not always better.
