The Queensland Government\u2019s Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2003 (ACHA 2003) requires a proponent to exercise a \u2018duty of care\u2019 and to sponsor a cultural heritage management plan, developed with Traditional Owners. The developer initially made an offer to sponsor the costs of the cultural heritage assessment and then subsequently refused same. The former local councillor in 2019 indicated a willingness to contribute funds towards assessment costs. This unit development continues throughout 2020, without the engravings having any formal cultural heritage assessment, and despite any surviving rock art or engravings in southeast Queensland, being rare and highly significant.<\/p>\n<p>Coolum Beach, 100 km north of Brisbane, sits within the Country of Kabi Kabi First Nation (KKFN). The cost of taking the developer to court is prohibitive to the limited resources of KKFN, and it is not yet understood why the Queensland Government\u2019s Cultural Heritage Unit have not yet taken the developer to court.<\/p>\n<p>Adding to the sorrow and anguish of this situation, is that in 2019, another rock art site (KC 003) just to the north, was subject to vandalism. As well, a carved tree (KC 194) to the west, remains un-assessed and unprotected. In contrast, the Sunshine Coast\u2019s mainstream arts and culture sector, for example Sunshine Coast Council\u2019s annual Horizon Festival, enjoys a budget of around $666,000. It could be conceived that all three of these Kabi Kabi sites within the context of their cultural landscapes, are priceless, similar to the topical Juukan Gorge site, destroyed by Rio Tinto in Western Australia. The effectiveness of the media spotlight directed towards cultural heritage mismanagement, such as KC 203, is discussed.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_image et_pb_image_0\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aaaconference.com.au\/2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Genevieve-Jones-Kerry-Jones_SLIDE-1.png\" class=\"et_pb_lightbox_image\" title=\"\"><span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1201\" height=\"835\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aaaconference.com.au\/2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Genevieve-Jones-Kerry-Jones_SLIDE-1.png\" alt=\"\" title=\"Genevieve-Jones-Kerry-Jones_SLIDE-1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aaaconference.com.au\/2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Genevieve-Jones-Kerry-Jones_SLIDE-1.png 1201w, https:\/\/www.aaaconference.com.au\/2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Genevieve-Jones-Kerry-Jones_SLIDE-1-980x681.png 980w, https:\/\/www.aaaconference.com.au\/2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Genevieve-Jones-Kerry-Jones_SLIDE-1-480x334.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1201px, 100vw\" class=\"wp-image-90\" \/><\/span><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":90,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"2880","footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.aaaconference.com.au\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.aaaconference.com.au\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.aaaconference.com.au\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aaaconference.com.au\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aaaconference.com.au\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=88"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.aaaconference.com.au\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":93,"href":"https:\/\/www.aaaconference.com.au\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88\/revisions\/93"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aaaconference.com.au\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/90"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.aaaconference.com.au\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=88"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aaaconference.com.au\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=88"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aaaconference.com.au\/2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=88"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
