Public Question Time

Public Question Time forms part of Council's Ordinary Meeting, where pre-submitted questions on matters of public concern are asked directly of Council. 

Council requires public questions to be received in writing five business days prior to the next Ordinary Meeting. This lead time allows Council sufficient time to seek more information if required. Questions are assessed for suitability and relevance to Council business.

The scheduled dates, links for live-streaming and past recordings are listed below.

For more timely and personalised responses, community members are encouraged to ask questions, seek advice or provide feedback by contacting Council in the following ways:

  • in-person, at one of our three Customer Service and Administration Centres located in Beaudesert, Boonah and Tamborine Mountain. 
  • by phoning 07 5540 5111, our Customer Contact Centre is staffed 24/7 
  • by submitting an online request
  • by contacting their Divisional Councillor
