Public Consultation Summary September 2012 Disclaimer This report has been prepared by Promedia Public Relations for its client, Sembawang of Singapore - Global Project Underwriters. Promedia has undertaken research, analysed information and prepared the report in good faith. Promedia accepts no responsibility for decisions made or actions undertaken as a result of the contents of this report. Executive Summary Sembawang of Singapore - Global Project Underwriters (A Punj Lloyd Company) has proposed a $4.9 billion mixed-use development within the Gold Coast’s Broadwater. The proposal, Wavebreak, includes a cruise ship terminal, superyacht berths, marina, hotels and apartments, casino, retail and commercial space, public parklands and flora and fauna habitat. The mixed-use development is proposed atop future reclaimed land west of the existing man-made Wavebreak Island. The proposal’s cruise ship terminal component would be located at the northern side of the existing island and a ‘Fishermen’s Wharf’-style precinct located to the south. Findings During a four week consultation period ending Friday 31 August, the consultation team recorded 3,101 visits to the project website and 990 feedback responses, comprising: • 852completedonlinefeedbackresponses • 138phonecalls Key findings from the online survey included: • 76.5%ofrespondentssupportedtheWavebreak proposal being developed • 79.1%ofrespondentswantedtheGoldCoasttohouse the necessary infrastructure for cruise ships The intent of the consultation process was to determine whether there was discernible community support for the Wavebreak concept for Sembawang to commit to a future application process. • morethanthree-quartersofrespondents‘strongly agreed’ employment generated by Wavebreak, both in delivery and operation, was important to the city’s wider economy Feedback platforms included an online survey, embedded within the project website, and a toll-free phone line. The website and phone line were promoted via advertisements and media articles. • morethanthree-quartersofrespondentssupported specific features of the Wavebreak proposal, including the creation of a Fishermen’s Wharf-style precinct and dry-access to the existing parkland and beach Sembawang focused on a consultation process that was open and inclusive.

Analysis of IP addresses recorded by feedback software SurveyMonkey did not unearth deliberate attempts to manipulate the consultation process. 1 Qualitative feedback Many respondents who supported the Wavebreak multi-use developmentprovidedqualitativecomments.Supporters popularly indicated: • generalsupportfortheWavebreakproposal • generalsupportforcruiseshipfacilities • abeliefthattheproposalwouldbringbenefitsforthe tourism industry • theneedtoembraceemploymentopportunities • thedesiretostarttheprojectassoonaspossible,and have it ready for the Commonwealth Games • abeliefthatthe‘vocalminority’oftendictateddecisions for the city Approximately one-fifth of online respondents opposed the Wavebreak proposal and the provision of cruise ship facilities on the Gold Coast. Respondents opposing the Wavebreak proposal and, generally, cruise ship facilities for the Gold Coast, believed: • theproposalwouldnegativelyimpacttheenvironment and ecology • WavebreakIslandwasthewrongsiteforacruiseship terminal • thecostofdredgingandassociatedimpactswould affect the city • theproposalwasinappropriate • theproposalwouldimpactonrecreationalpursuits • theconsultationwasbiased,deliberatelyexcluding environmental concerns from the consultation process Theconsultationteamreceived138phonecallsduringthe consultation process, with 101 in support and 37 in opposition 73.2%support,whichalmostreplicatestheonlinesurveyresults. Phone callers in support of the Wavebreak proposal referred to it as being ‘fantastic’; believed it would enable the Gold Coast to attract the cruise ship industry; and that it should have been completed previously. Phone callers in opposition criticised the potential environmental impact of the proposal; indicated that it would impactonrecreationalpursuits;andquestionedtheeconomic benefits of the proposal. 2 Respondents from neighbouring suburbs Large numbers of respondents resided in suburbs in proximity to the Wavebreak proposal. The top five suburbs, in terms of participation, were Southport, Runaway Bay, Labrador, Biggera Waters and Surfers Paradise. The level of opposition and support for cruise ship facilities and the Wavebreak proposal from residents in proximity to the Wavebreak proposal was comparable to the support from the wider sample. Conclusion Nine-hundred and ninety feedback responses can be considered a credible result. The level of participation would be considered acceptable for a major infrastructure project on the Gold Coast. By way of comparison, if 990 respondents were selected via statistically valid means throughout the city, thesamplewouldberegardedwith99%certaintyasbeing representativeofthewiderpopulationwitha±3.1%deviation, basedonanestimatedpopulationof550,000residents. Overall, there was discernible support from respondents for the proposal, indicated through the online survey and dedicated phone number. Supporters commonly believed the proposal would heighten the city’s tourism potential. Opponents believed it would largely cause environmental and ecological damage. Therewasadequatepromotionoftheconsultationprocess through major media outlets and the feedback platforms were accessible to the majority of the public. Following on from the inclusive community consultation process, targeted stakeholder engagement activities should be considered as part of any future progression of the proposal. 1.0 Introduction 1.1 Project background Sembawang of Singapore - Global Project Underwriters (A Punj Lloyd company) unveiled its proposal for the $4.9 billion Wavebreak mixed-use development proposal on 27 July, 2012. The proposal is multi-faceted including a cruise ship terminal, superyacht berths, marina, hotels and apartments, casino, retail and commercial space, public parklands and flora and fauna habitat. Sembawang, as the proponent, assembled a project team including Desmond Brooks Architects, ARUP and Urban Planning Services for the planning and design of the proposal. The existing island was created to protect the Broadwater’s western shore from seas created by the Gold Coast Seaway, constructedin1986. The proposal focuses on predominantly on future reclaimed land to the west of the existing man-made Wavebreak Island. The Wavebreak proposal would locate two cruise ship docks, catering for vessels up to 300 metre in length, on the northern side of the existing island. On the southern side of the island, a ‘Fishermen’s Wharf’-style precinct would be created. It would also include moorings for prawn trawlers. The proposal would also open up 37ha of parkland - currently only accessible by watercraft - to the wider community, as well as the island’s east facing beach. A new bridge connecting to the intersection of Brisbane Road would provide road access to the new proposal. The concept of a cruise ship terminal has previously been mooted within the Broadwater. The last major investigation, for a cruise ship terminal being built inside the Broadwater at The Spitwasdismissedin2006bytheStateGovernment. 1.2 Objectives of the consultation Sembawang publicly communicated that general community support was integral to the company progressing the necessary plans for the Wavebreak proposal. At the time the consultation process began, the proposal was conceptual in nature. Planning and design had not progressed to the level to address anticipated impacts - for instance, environmental or traffic. The primary objectives of the consultation process were to: The detailed design relevant development conditions for the proposal would be developed following the consultation process and the public mandate sought by the proponent to progress the proposal. • promoteawarenessandthespecificsoftheWavebreak proposal • gatherquantitativeandqualitativeresponsesto understand community perceptions of the immediate area • findoutwhetherthecommunitywantedtheWavebreak proposal to be developed Secondary objectives were to determine whether the community favoured specific components of the Wavebreak proposal; whether they had a connection with the existing Wavebreak Island; and whether they believed the proposal’s economic generators - employment and direct spending were important to the wider Gold Coast economy. 3 1.3 Wavebreak proposal and the project area Figure 1 below illustrates the proposal from an aerial perspective.

Sembawang wanted the community consultation process to be open and inclusive. As an initial consultation, Sembawang wanted everyone who had an interest in its multi-use development proposal, a cruise ship terminal or the existing Wavebreak Island and Broadwater generally, the chance to have their say. As per the framework created by the International Association for Public Participation (see Table 1 below Sembawang sought to ‘Consult’ with the wider community. Sembawang appreciated that many people would like to have their say on the proposal and providing accessible opportunities for feedback was essential.

Media audits traditionally highlight Saturday and Sunday as the highest circulation days for mainstream newspapers. A press conference unveiling the proposal was held on Friday 27 July, 2012 on the top floor of the Atrium Resort, Labrador, overlooking the development site. The media conference achieved significant coverage. (See Appendix) 6 Marketing and communication activities undertaken complementary to the media conference included: • aprojectmediakitdistributedtoallmajorAustralian media outlets • briefingswithjournalistsatmetropolitanpublications • afullpageadvertisementinTheGoldCoastBulletin (1 August 2012) • thecreationofaprojectwebsite (www.wavebreakisland.com) 2.3 Feedback mechanisms Feedback to the Wavebreak proposal was encouraged via an online survey and toll-free phone number. The online survey was embedded project website (www. wavebreakisland.com) enabling respondents to view the plans - including an innovation which displayed a ‘before and after’ simulation - and vision prior to lodging feedback. The SurveyMonkey software program was used to record feedback. machine activated after hours and on weekends. Respondentsprovidedqualitativefeedbacktotheproposal which was logged by consultants in a spreadsheet register. Whenpossible,consultantsalsoansweredprojectqueries raised by respondents as part of the process. Queries of a technical nature were referred to the proponent’s project team which compiled a response. The online survey allowed the community to provide quantitativeandqualitativefeedbacktotheproposal. In the overwhelming majority of cases, respondents clearly outlined whether they were in favour or opposed to the Wavebreak proposal. Thephoneline(1300033800)wasansweredbyconsultants during business hours on week days, with an answering The feedback mechanisms were considered accessible ways to provide feedback. 2.4 Project website Sembawang established a project website www. wavebreakisland.com to attract community feedback. During the four week consultation period, key analytics included: In addition to the online survey, the project website also included the proposal media kit, a plan (including a ‘slider’) a selection of media clippings, follow-up media releases and information about the proponent. • 3,101websitevisits • 3,649pageviews • anaverageof103visitsperdayduringtheconsultation period(peakingat406) • 52,022hits GoogleAnalyticsindicated81percentofvisitorstotheproject website were from Australia, followed by Singapore (14 per cent) and Indonesia (one per cent). The remaining one per cent was represented by respondents from a mixture of other countries. 2.5Futureconsultationactivities Sembawang’s consultation strategy provided the wider community with the opportunity to provide feedback to its Wavebreak proposal. Future project briefings and consultation with key stakeholders and stakeholder groups are recommended if Sembawang is to progress its concept. 7 8 3.0 Consultation findings 3.1 Quantitative responses The consultation process enabled respondents to provide feedbackwhichquantifiedtheirsupportoroppositiontothe proposal through the online feedback survey and the toll-free project phone number. 3.1.1 Online survey 3.1.1.1 Question Asked: Have you previously ever visited the existing man-made Wavebreak Island? Number of respondents Yes 579 No 259 Total 838 Skippedquestion 14 Determining how familiar the community was with the existing Wavebreak Island was an important aspect of the consultation process. Approximately seven out of ten respondents to the questionhadpreviouslyvisitedtheexistingWavebreakIsland which is only accessible via watercraft. NO YES Figure 2 9 3.1.1.2 Question Asked: As part of the Wavebreak proposal the proponents will provide ‘dry access’ via a new bridge to Wavebreak Island. Would you visit the 37ha parkland and beach if this linkage was created? The proponent wanted to understand if respondents, especially those without watercraft, would care to visit the publicly accessible parklands and beach on Wavebreak Island. Approximatelyeightoutoftenrespondentstothequestion indicated they would visit the island’s parkland if a bridge linking the island with the mainland was created. Number of respondents Yes 668 No 168 Total 836 Skippedquestion 16 NO YES Figure 3 3.1.1.3 Question Asked: As part of the Wavebreak proposal, the proponents will provide a ‘Fishermen’s Wharf’ style precinct where it may be possible to purchase and enjoy fresh seafood. Would you visit the Fishermen’s Wharf if it was created? Number of respondents Yes 658 No 176 Total 834 Skippedquestion 18 The proponent wanted to know if its vision for a ‘Fishermen’s Wharf’ on the southern side of the existing man-made Wavebreak Island would be popular amongst the community.

How important is employment in the construction and development industries for the Gold Coast’s economy? Historically, the construction and development industries have been prominent employment sectors within the Gold Coast and Queensland economies. As a secondary objective of the consultation process, the proponent wanted to know if the community still believed the sectors offered flow-on benefits to the wider Gold Coast economy, and to what level. Eighty-six per cent of respondents believed the industries were either ‘very important’ or ‘important’ to the local economy.

For authenticity, spelling and grammar has not been edited. Open-ended responses from supporters of the Wavebreak proposal COMMON THEMES EXTRACTS OF SAMPLE RESPONSES General support for the Wavebreak proposal “About time someone is wanting to do something positive on the Gold Coast in today’s market that has a excellent outcome. We support your project fully an trust the Gold Coast City Council & State Government do as well.” “Great idea. Change can be a threatening thing to some but unless the Gold Coast is willing to think big we will be left languishing behind other tourist destinations and there will be the continuation of patchy small projects here and there that have no overall impact on things. This marina would create huge opportunities for the entire region so it seems a no brainer really if you want to see a dynamic and progress region on the international map rather than a sunny piss up place for bogens and their kids.” “The proposal put forward by Sembawang is a once in a lifetime opportunity for the Gold Coast to capture and enhance all that it has to offer to visitors and its residents. This is the most sensible proposal that has been put forward & I feel that if this in not approved and built then we will be going backwards in lack of development, opportunities for investment and attracting more visitors to this partoftheworld.Thegovernment,bothState&Federallymustbackthis100%,especiallybecause there is no monetary involvement to be placed on them.” General support for cruise ship facilities “IhavecruisedquitealotandthinktheideaofacruiseterminalontheGoldCoastwouldbe wonderful. There is so much to see and do in the Gold Coast area, a cruise port here would give tourists great opportunities to experience a delightful area, and let the area benefit enormously economically.” “I totally support a cruise ship terminal and all that goes with it as the Gold Coast needs to attract more visitors. It would also give more people in Queensland the opportunity to “go cruising” with more options.” “I have cruised to many destinations around the world and have always taken an interest in the ports of call and the cruise terminals we have called at. Some of the smallest cities have built wonderful cruise terminals and as a result their inbound tourism numbers have increased tenfold soley due to an efficient and large cruise terminal to cater for all sizes of ships from the various shipping companies that sail the seas.” The tourism potential the proposal provided “We cannot compete with the big world without a major attraction - there is lots of nice beaches all over the world to choose from. Bring it on!” “The Proposal For The Development Of Wavebreak Island Would Be In Keeping With The Standard Of What Holiday Visiters Expect Coming To Australia’s No.I Tourist Destination. This, Combined With An International Berthing Facility For The Ever Increasing Fleet Of Cruise Vessels Now Passing By The Gold Coast Would Not Only Boost The Employment Figures But Would Put Untold Millions Of Dollars Back Into The Local Economy.” “The position will allow visitors easy access to Surfers Paradise via bus or water taxi, beaches, Harbourtownshopping,Movie/Dreamworld...themeparks.Daytripstothehinterland,plusrecreational activities, such as surfing off Straddie, Jet Ski rides, diving, canoe tours... Currently the Gold Coast is in a holding pattern, with nothing new to attract visitors. The Gold Coast has always been a tourist city and with the growth of the Cruise Ship industry, it would be detromental for the Gold Coast not to share in that tourist market. If we do not seize the oppurtunity, I am sure another place will.” 15 Open-ended responses from supporters of the Wavebreak proposal COMMON THEMES EXTRACTS OF SAMPLE RESPONSES The need to embrace employment opportunities “really wish the project would start ASAP the coast could really do with this construction” “The Gold Coast needs this developement to go ahead, it needs investment to be a major tourism destination, as the Gold Coast is not in good shape we all know this, high unemployment & high crime rates are the result of,our poor economy.” “The lack of employment prospects on the GC has already lead to one of our kids to move away, and another is likely to follow soon. There are many other GC families in the same situation as us. We urgently need projects which will stabilise, and eventually grow, the GC employment market.” The desire to start the project as soon as possible, and have it ready for the Commonwealth Games “The proposal is fantastic and an absolute must to go ahead. The sooner the better!” A belief that the ‘vocal minority’ often dictated decisions about the city “I believe the Gold Coast does need something of this nature to allow it to compete with other locations world wide as well as those in Australia. Regardless of the Global downturn, developments of this nature if well planned and executed are necessary and far more beneficial to the community as a whole. I feel saddened that a small and very vocal minority group of people can have such a huge effect in whether or not developments of this type actually occur. I believe many of them have never been to the area, let alone visited the opposite shore line (The Spit) by road.” “Please please please make this happen, what a win for the Gold Coast this would be and also an amazing advertisement and showcase for the Commonwealth Games!” “I visit the current wavebreak in my boat and it is a good place, however it will be even more interesting and offer more benefits to the community with the development. The gold Coast needs a cruise ship terminal and the associated financial benefits. This will elevate the Gold Coast in the list of new tourist attractions and hopefully it will be completed prior to the Commonwealth Games. With the new government and their positive outlook to tourism and development, this will be a real benefit to every Queenslander an Australian.” “There will always be some people who oppose any new development like this, on any grounds they can find, however I believe that this development will benefit vastly more people than the few that will protest. The Gold Coast needs this in order to mature and develop as a prime holiday destination.” “As one of the” silent majority” it is now time not to be silent anymore. Too many individual vested interests have dictated on the coast too the detriment of the community.” Table 2: Open-ended responses from supporters of the Wavebreak proposal 16 There was a small proportion of respondents whom provided support for the Wavebreak proposal, with specific caveats including respect for the environment and ecology; traffic impacts; and respecting the public amenity of the area. A small sample of unedited responses is listed below: • • • “Developit!Justbemindfuloftheenvironment.I frequentlyscubadiveintheseaway,wherethereis tropical fish and and amazing marine life to be seen. This must be protected.” 3.2.1.2 OnlinequalitativeoppositiontotheWavebreakproposal Similar to support for the Wavebreak proposal, respondents whom opposed the project provided a wide breadth of reasons. Broadly grouped themes from respondents whom opposed the Wavebreak proposal included: “Ithinkthisisafantasticideaanddefinitelysupportit. TheonlyproblemIdoseeisthattheentranceisatquite a Congested area. I truly hope Sembawang conduct proper studies for Traffic movements in the area and propose to the Local Council various ways to alleviate the traffic in that area to suit this development.” • theimpacttheproposalwouldhaveontheenvironment and ecology • theproposalwasthewrongsiteforacruiseship terminal • thecostofdredgingandassociatedimpacts “Itwillbecriticaltoensurethatthescaleofthe development is of a scale that compliments the local Labrador and Biggera Waters community, and that the existing road, cycleway and walkway network is upgraded to support the new development whilst not impacting on the amenity of that existing community. Plus the development must include publicly accessable parks and beaches because there will be loss of amenity along part of the existing Labrador foreshore. I support the development of Wavebreak Island as the best solution to providing a cruise ship terminal given that the islands, and the seaway, manmade in the 1st place.” • general,non-specific,oppositiontotheconcept • concernsabouttheimpactoftheproposalon recreational pursuits • claimsthattheconsultationprocesswasbiased,and deliberately excluded environmental considerations Table 3 includes extracts of open-ended responses from respondents whom opposed the Wavebreak proposal. For authenticity, spelling and grammar has not been edited. 17 Open-ended responses from opponents of the Wavebreak proposal COMMON THEMES EXTRACTS OF SAMPLE RESPONSES The impact the proposal would have on the environment and ecology “This is an environmentally sensitive area that we as gold coasters pride on having at our doorstep. A developmentlikethiswillundoubtedlyimpactwithsignificantfactorssuchas:-1/Theseawayishometo anabundanceoflivingseacreaturesthatwillhavetorelocatedduetohugedestructionoftherehabitat.2/ When will the first large vessel run aground and loose a tank load of diesel or waste in our water.” “The shallows around Wavebreak have become important habitat for fish breeding in the sea grass beds.” “This development will result in a substantial loss of important seagrass habitats which; supports a diversity of commercially and recreationally important juvenile fish and prawn species; migratory and residential birds and provides food for threatened dugongs and turtle populations which reside in the broadwater. Dredging to provide access for Cruise ships will smoother this exceptionally important habitat type and may adversly affect both tourism and fishing industry on the Gold Coast over the short and long term.” The proposal was the wrong site for a cruise ship terminal “The Gold Coast is over developed already. Keep the area natural. Cruise ship terminal should be off shore as to not impact on the Broadwater.” “It is rare in any city to have this natural resource so close to the heart of a city- Surfers Paradise. It gives gold coast residents the beauty of an untouched beach and bushland within minutes drive from a city of skyscrapers. When you stand on the beach on the Spit you see them in the distance and it looks awesome but you don’t want to be standing amongst them. To distrupt this ecosystem with more high rise and commercial precincts would be criminal.” “Wouldn’t it be more favourable to build such a facility on the inside of South Straddie at Brown island with an articficial isthmus providing sea access? Vehicluar traffic could then be directed by way of bridges/tunnelsvialowerCoomeraIsland&JabiruIslandtotheOxenford-Southportarterialroadway alleviating the current abyssmal traffic congestions around the Broadwater. Another railway station could then be created between Helensvale & Coomera with light rail access to the Shipping Terminal.” The cost of dredging and associated impacts “Whowillpayfordredging?Asat10/8/2012thedredgethatworksinBroadwaterhasbeenat Mooloolaba for some time. At low tide there is a build up of pressure waves across southern side (Nerang Head) this is dangerous how do you propose to stop this happening.” “I am more concerned about the constant dredging that will be needed. The moving sediments and turbidity that it will create will not be good for the broadwater. Dramatically widening and deepening the Seaway will have a huge impact on tidal flows throughout the Broadwater which will eventually result in a change to fish habitats as we know them now. Deep holes will fill with sand and other areaswilldigoutandformdeepholes.Sandbars/bankswillprobablymoveduetoachangeintidal flow,weed beds could possibly die off from siltation and a whole host of problems can occur or change once they open up the Seaway. Changing the Seaway rock walls could also change the inshore currents and sand movements along the beach which could in turn have a huge impact on the SPB.” “I believe there will be ongoing costs to the Gold Coast rate payers in keeping the broadwater depths to allow ships in.” 18 Open-ended responses from opponents of the Wavebreak proposal COMMON THEMES EXTRACTS OF SAMPLE RESPONSES General opposition to the concept “The Gold Coast is plastic enough as it is, we don’t need a cruise ship terminal and an extra casino. Thecoasthasabadrepofbeingtoosuperficialandwithoutitsownuniquecharacter....Ithinkwhen people see this they will think ‘that’s the last straw’ and either boycott or not bother to visit. The Coast is known for its integration of a liveable city into a natural landscape, PLEASE keep it that way.” “Just Leave It Alone And Keep It Natural And Untouched The Area Is Too Small For Such A Large Development Why Do We Have To Ruin Every Piece Of Natural Spare Space That We Have Just For The Almighty Dollar As It Is We Have Already Ruined Parts Of Our Beautiful Gold Coast.” “Believe it or not, Australians don’t like themed tourism facilities and artificial environments like thepoortragicrelicsofthe1980seraofgreed,theGoldCoastbeingatragicexampleofthis greedy developer mentality in what was a pristine environment 100 years ago.

This development is profoundly disgusting and incredibly ugly.” Concerns about the impact of the proposal on recreational pursuits “stop trying to ruin south stradbroke island surfing!!!” “Your talking about all the jobs what will be made available what about all the jobs and small business owners which will have to close down if this goes ahead for example scuba diving shops which use wave break and the spit to conduct dives lessons and courses boat hire company’s will go broke because wave break tends to be where everyone takes them for family picnics and what ever else.” “There are a lot of people who use this island for weekend boating trips, camping, fishing..... if this development go’s ahead they will no longer be able use this area anymore and wave break is the only island in the southern part of the bay with protection from almost every wind direction, most of all the north side of wave break protected from the southeast trade wind it’s hands down the best beach on the Broadwater in south weather, so if that’s not there anymore we will have no where to go boating that offers this type of protection from the wind and that being said you might have a fight on ya hands....” Claims that the consultation process was biased, and deliberately excluded environmental considerations “Itstotalyanenvironmentalissues,notonequestionwasaskedaboutenvironmentconcerns.It seems that there is going to be no balance between what matters the most which is the environment against profit. Sure it would be great for this project, it actually sounds exciting BUT not as a cost in destroying our true locals which are the marine animals.” “Thissurveydoesn’tasktherealquestions.Weneedtoleavethebroadwateralone.Onceit has been changed, it’s gone forever. You mention ‘no cost to the community’ , I disagree. Development in the broadwater will affect the environment as well as the way the existing community use a cherish the broadwater.” “Perhaps you should include in your survey “Do you agree to the introduction of potential contaminants which are part and parcel of any shipping industry” and “Do you think the transport system is able to cope with the influx of tourists, residents and others involved in the Wavebreak project?” - after all, it cannot cope at present!” Table 3: Open-ended responses from opponents of the Wavebreak proposal 19 3.2.2 Qualitative feedback provided via phone Therewere138phonecallsrecordedduringtheconsultation period on the dedicated 1300 phone line. Responses to the phone line were varied, but common themes included: In all cases, it was discernible whether the callers supported or opposed the proposal. • theproposalwas‘fantastic’ • generalsupportforthecruiseshipindustry • abeliefthatsomethingsimilarshouldbebeenbuilt ‘years ago’ • theopportunityforconstructionjobs In total, 101 phone callers supported the proposal while 37 were in opposition. Unlike the online survey, respondents to the phone line did notanswerquantifiablequestions.Instead,theyusedthe feedback mechanism as an opportunity to express their opinion about the Wavebreak proposal. Where possible, the phonelineconsultantsansweredquestionscallershadabout the proposal. Queries of a technical nature were referred to the proponent’s project team which compiled a response. 20 Respondents whom opposed the Wavebreak proposal commonly cited: • theinappropriatenessofthedevelopmentbeing positioned in, and a ‘gross over-development’ of, the Broadwater • environmentalconcerns • questionsabouttheeconomicbenefitoftheproposal • generaloppositiontotheproposal 4.0 Respondents by suburb Respondents were invited to list the suburb or town they reside in as part of the consultation process. Inclusive consultation programs - those which do not focus an on enclosed, random sample - commonly attract respondents whom live within proximity of a proposal. This trend was evident in the consultation program for the Wavebreak proposal. The highest participation number in the online survey came from respondents in close, or relatively close, proximity to the Broadwater, including: • • RunawayBay(45) • Labrador(42) • BiggeraWaters(34) • SurfersParadise(31) Suburbs with 20 or more respondents included Ashmore, Robina, Paradise Point, Carrara, Arundel, Nerang and Helensvale. Respondents resided as far away as Sydney. Southport(58) 4.1 Opinions of nearby respondents Respondents in neighbouring suburbs hold specific interest in the Wavebreak proposal and its potential impact. Indeed, suburbs in proximity to the proposal accounted for the highest levels of response, on a suburb by suburb basis. An analysis of the level of support for the Wavebreak proposal from neighbouring suburbsis listed in Table 4 below: SUBURB IN SUPPORT OPPOSITION UNCERTAIN Southport 69% 29.3% 1.7% Runaway Bay 77.8% 20% 2.2% Labrador 71.4% 26.2% 2.4% Biggera Waters 73.5% 23.5% 2.9% Surfers Paradise 81.5% 14.8% 3.7% Table 4: Levels of support for the Wavebreak proposal As seen in Table 4 above, the level of support from Southport residents(69percent)waslessthantheoverallsupport(76.5%) recorded for the project.

The world-class destination, to be called Wavebreak, could be delivered ahead of the 2018 Commonwealth Games. It is proposed to accommodate two cruise ship terminals, 12 superyacht berths, a 400 berth marina and Fisherman's Wharf-style trawler centre among its marine infrastructure. Tourism facilities including 1500 hotel rooms - from four to six stars - an aquarium, theatre and casino are also proposed. The project would be one of the largest undertaken on Australia’s Eastern Seaboard and its proponents say it would provide a substantial economic boost to the Gold Coast and Queensland. It will also be a thriving community providing apartments, shopping and dining facilities and 'dry' access to Wavebreak Island's parkland and east-facing beach. The cruise ship terminal will be located on the north end of Wavebreak Island, with the majority of the remaining 37 hectares of man-made island protected as parkland. The majority of the development would be established on the western side of Wavebreak Island and separated by a navigable waterway. Tourism, marine and residential facilities will be housed on reclaimed land west of Wavebreak Island, and accessed via a new bridge to Brisbane Road. Economic projections indicate Wavebreak would generate approximately 19,000 positions for the construction sector. The cruise industry alone would bring an additional 264,500 visitors to the Gold Coast by 2018, increasing to an additional 913,000 in 2031. Wavebreak would add to Sembawang's portfolio of signature international projects including Jumeirah Island Villas in Dubai and the Marina Bay Sands Resort in Singapore. Wavebreak would add to Sembawang's seaport and terminal experience, with the company previously delivering Singapore's first centralised multi-utility facility. Company President and CEO, Mr Ric Grosvenor, said if approved the proposed development would be 'world-class' and heighten interest in the Gold Coast and Queensland internationally. He said the company was finalising its plans so that it could be lodged and formally considered. "Sembawang is pleased to unveil the initial plans for Wavebreak, which is a vision for a world-class destination,'' said Mr Grosvenor. "The cruise ship terminal will allow the Gold Coast and Queensland to better cater for the region's cruise ship industry. "But first and foremost, Wavebreak will serve the Gold Coast community. There will be a rich mix of leisure and recreational facilities, parklands and swimming areas open to the public, helping cater for significant population growth forecast over coming decades. “People can come and have a picnic on the foreshore with their fish and chips or they can choose sophisticated waterfront dining. “They can shop, they can arrive by boat and moor, they can stay for a holiday or they can stay for life in one of the residential precincts. "Sembawang also recognises the importance of the Broadwater to recreational boating on the Gold Coast and is committed to improving the access, safety and navigational ease of this channel. To this end, the design team is considering a range of options to ensure recreational boating activities can be accommodated in a sheltered area of the Broadwater. "The company is well-positioned to deliver Wavebreak and make a significant investment in the Gold Coast and Queensland economies at the same time, at no cost to local or state governments. The aim is for the eventual owners and operators of facilities to cater for ongoing costs where appropriate.'' Mr Grosvenor said the proposed project would need to be approved by all relevant authorities including Local , State and Federal Governments and agencies. The scope and nature of this project means it will require dedicated State government legislation to become reality. “It is early days as yet, but we are confident this proposal can tick all the relevant boxes,” he said. Wavebreak is proposed to include: a two berth cruise ship terminal (vessels up to 300m in length could access the Seaway) a super yacht marina (12+ berths) a marina (400 berths) hotels (1,500 suites) apartments a casino education and training facilities public parklands (37ha) a bridge to Brisbane Rd an aquarium retail space a cultural centre commercial space theatre prawn trawler moorings The proponents are also proposing to repair damaged sections of the Seaway's southern wall and offer new moorings for prawn trawler operators whom may be displaced by future plans for The Spit. Mr Grosvenor said utilising the man-made Wavebreak Island for a cruise ship terminal, instead of the nearby Spit, had always made sense. "Indeed, the concept for a cruise ship terminal on Wavebreak Island was first originated in 1998,'' said Mr Grosvenor. “We have had it on our list of possible projects to activate worldwide and it has progressively risen to the top of that list. The time is now perfect to proceed. "But reviving the concept to create a world-class, visionary project such as Wavebreak needed the certainty and innovation of industry leaders, which is why Sembawang has brought together a team including Desmond Brooks Architects (DBA), Urban Planning Services (UPS) and ARUP to deliver the project. “We have harnessed some of the best minds and talent worldwide to create something here on the Gold Coast which will have State and national significance.” As Master Architect for Southbank, Desmond Brooks brought his vision for Brisbane to reality and changed the way the city relates to the river and its Parklands. It is Desmond's and DBA’s passion for the Gold Coast (his home), that gave creation to this concept. Desmond first brought the concept to Ric some 10 years ago - a client who shares his vision and demands excellence in his creations. This concept has the potential to bring the Gold Coast into the bright future it really deserves. Timing is everything. In partnership with Ric, Sembawang and Queensland - the time is now.

Sembawang has assembled a team of internationally recognised and industry leading consultants and experts to help plan the development. It will use its internationally recognised experience in engineering, construction and development to deliver this iconic project whilst achieving positive social, economic and environmental outcomes. Sembawang has identified in advance the likely main points of debate regarding the proposal and has provided solutions for each. Some of the measures planned include: A deep water anchorage to be provided for recreational boaties as part of the design process Dredging to be undertaken to allow access to the cruise ship terminal. Assuming the dredging responsibilities to allow access to the cruise ship terminal from the Gold Coast Seaway for 300 metre vessels (38m beams and 8.5m drafts) Repairing the damaged southern training wall in the Seaway; Providing replacement seagrass beds for any shallow areas around Wavebreak which are disturbed; Avoiding any disturbance to sand banks south of Wavebreak Island which have been indentified as being of significance for migratory birds; Providing a new home for the Gold Coast trawler fleet which is at risk of being displaced by future development along The Spit; Carrying out improvements on degraded areas of Wavebreak Island and creating public parklands which connect with the currently isolated beach on its eastern boundary; Dredging a deep water marina at the western boundary of the proposed project which is currently a shallow sand bank that is exposed at low tide; Ensuring the connecting bridge is of sufficient height to allow recreational and small commercial vessels to pass underneath Developing an appropriate property strategy which allows for the staged delivery of new product onto the market to support its recovery and long term sustainability Managing the visual impact of Wavebreak Island for people living on the mainland with the predominant built form being of a human scale averaging three to seven stories with a cluster of taller elements to create a visually legible location marker.

Unveiled on Friday, the proposal includes the development of a cruise ship, marina, residential, commercial and entertainment precinct, and community parklands and facilities, on Wavebreak Island within the Southport Broadwater. Sembawang of Singapore - Global Project Underwriters, is behind some of the world’s most iconic developments of recent years and will create a major new international tourism hub for the Gold Coast if plans released for the first time last week are approved and meet with strong community support. Sembawang has been working on the plans with local firm Desmond Brooks Architects (DBA) for the past 15 years and believes now is the right time to kick start the project. Sembawang want the community to look at this closely, to familiarise themselves with it and to embrace it. If the response is positive Sembawang will move forward - if the public is against it, the company will move on. Sembawang of Singapore President and CEO Ric Grosvenor said the community would have plenty of opportunity to voice its opinion and concerns. “I am sure we’ll be able to address all the issues, but this has to be a win win for all concerned and Sembawang wants the community behind it.” Sembawang and DBA said the world class destination, to be called Wavebreak, would be independently funded at no cost to the City or the State and could be delivered ahead of the 2018 Commonwealth Games. The project would be a ‘game-changer’ for the Gold Coast - as one of the largest tourism developments in Queensland, it would provide a substantial economic boost for the City and the State. “But first and foremost, Wavebreak will serve the Gold Coast community,” said Mr Grosvenor. “What Sembawang is proposing is much more than a cruise ship terminal.” ...................................................................................................................... “IT IS AN INTEGRATED TOURISM AND RESIDENTIAL DESTINATION WHERE PEOPLE CAN LIVE, WORK, HOLIDAY, PLAY AND ENJOY LIFE UNDER THE QUEENSLAND SUN.” ...................................................................................................................... “The project team also recognises the importance of the Broadwater to recreational boating on the Gold Coast and is committed to improving the access, safety and navigational ease of this channel.” The cruise ship terminal will be located on the north end of Wavebreak Island, with the majority of the remaining 37 hectares of man-made island to be totally protected as parkland for the enjoyment of the local community and visitors. The development will be primarily established COMMUNITY FEEDBACK Sembawang and its team have been heartened by the initial feedback from the community, with four main points of discussion emerging since the plans were unveiled. ......................................................................................................................

Wavebreak Island will become largely a 37 hectare public park with open access to all members of the community. Seaway project and Wavebreak Island, Gary Lucas, is a member of the team. Dredging to allow cruise ships to arrive and depart is part of the proposal and an expert team will thoroughly assess dredging requirements. TRAFFIC AND THE LINKAGE FROM THE MAINLAND TO WAVEBREAK A full transportation study will be undertaken as part of the approvals process and issues of traffic flow where the proposed bridge to Wavebreak meets with Brisbane Road at Labrador will be addressed. DREDGING REQUIRED TO ACCOMMODATE CRUISE SHIPS The team behind the proposed Wavebreak development includes international experts in the fields of engineering and construction. The original engineer for the Gold Coast PRIVATE OWNERSHIP OF PUBLIC LANDS Wavebreak Island will remain largely untouched. The cruise ship terminal will be located on the northern side of Wavebreak Island in what is now a deep water navigation channel. The island will be upgraded into an oasis of public parklands which will be fully accessible to the entire community.
