It was a big step to reinstate a Pomona Chamber and bring in other communities, but in the end we realised that our future is together, linked by initiatives such as the Noosa Country Drive and the Noosa Trail Network upgrade, Mr Moran said. A chamber representing the whole region allows us to become a unified voice when dealing with the council and other levels of government. Sensible growth and development is inevitable, but it must not come at a cost to what we have now. Mr Moran said a main aim of the chamber was to preserve the hinterland lifestyle and scale of development.
