Sunshine Coast Council -

Sunshine Coast Council - Sunshine Coast has reported more than 2,200 suspected illegal-dumping reports in a year, with funded officer work focused on investigations and hotspots.

What happened

Sunshine Coast News reported that Sunshine Coast Council recorded more than 2,200 suspected illegal-dumping reports across a 12-month period.

State Fighting Illegal Dumping Partnership funding is supporting officer work to investigate offenders, identify hotspots and use monitoring equipment.

Why it matters

Dedicated dumping work creates a practical chain from community report to field inspection, camera review, hotspot mapping and follow-up casework.

What to watch

The soft open is how councils keep reports, monitoring equipment, evidence files, clean-up notes and offender investigations connected without losing audit history.
