To date, the team has completed 574 building site inspections and education sessions across 121 unique building companies and conducted 186 inspections and education sessions for large civil sites, across 26 unique civil contractors.

Manager Development Services Patricia Jensen said Council’s taskforce had been a catalyst for positive change in the construction sector, improving the industry’s environmental performance.

Ms Jensen said there had been three key components behind the success of this taskforce:

Engagement with industry - developers, builders, contractors and consultants

Education to a range of internal and external stakeholders to enable them to succeed Measuring performance and development of metrics, so progress can be tracked and ongoing momentum ensured.

Ms Jensen congratulated the team members who had made Council’s taskforce so successful, including Richard MacGillivray, Rob Sewell, Rupert Hindley, Lisa Meilak, Michelle Walker, Samantha Middleton, Michelle Lowe and Sally Welch.

“We could not have achieved this fantastic recognition for this Taskforce without funding from Council’s Environment Levy,” she said.

“We hope that the great work being done by the Taskforce can continue after its three-year project timeframe.” www.sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au
