Baylands Community Forum Series
In response to ongoing community interest relating to future development of the Baylands, UPC has sponsored a series of Community Forums.
The intent is simple: Bring regionally and nationally recognized experts to Brisbane to share their project based experience in areas that the Brisbane Community cares deeply about. The program of each forum will include a presentation followed first by a customary round of Q&A, after which participants and speakers are invited to an informal sharing of thoughts and ideas over wine, beverages and light snacks.
