WHAT IS OUR INTEREST…<br />

• We run a Commercial Property Development business<br />

(shopping centre and residential subdivision) at<br />

Highfields & in 2007 we became aware <strong>of</strong> the threat<br />

associated with the possible closure <strong>of</strong> Borneo Barracks.<br />

• Once we were able <strong>to</strong> obtain a copy <strong>of</strong> Defence<br />

consultants report in late 2008 (after threat <strong>of</strong> FOI) we<br />

quickly realised the broader negative economic impact<br />

the premature closure <strong>of</strong> Borneo Barracks would have<br />

on the whole <strong>Toowoomba</strong> region.<br />

• While there seems <strong>to</strong> be no imminent threat <strong>of</strong> closure <strong>of</strong><br />

Borneo Barracks we are closely moni<strong>to</strong>ring the situation<br />

and generally informing business and the public <strong>of</strong> the<br />

issue.
