About 18 months ago the Wynnum & Districts Chamber of Commerce formed a sub-committee charged with encouraging the redevelopment of the central shopping area in Wynnum – the Wynnum Redevelopment Taskforce.
The main focus of the Taskforce was to encourage existing property owners and potential developers to work together to take advantage of the relaxation in building height restrictions when Brisbane City Council moved maximum height to eight storeys in central Wynnum, with five storey buildings permitted slightly further out.
To understand the view of the residents of Wynnum, the Taskforce also conducted a survey in May 2012 which showed widespread support in the community for redevelopment.
Since then the Taskforce has produced bumper stickers, now proudly worn on car bumpers by many Wynnum residents, and the latest incarnation of the colourband is on one of the water towers at the end of Preston Road near the border between Manly and Wynnum. Use of the colourband is free to any Wynnum resident or business, and the free bumper stickers can be picked up at the Wynnum & Districts Chamber office in Florence Street.
A bonus prizewinner – one of the six winners – will go on to win a half day cruise on Moreton Bay on the Spirit of Koomooloo yacht.
