As a co-host city, the Sunshine Coast is earmarked for a range of infrastructure including a new mountain bike centre, upgraded stadium, new indoor sports centre, athletes' village as well as nine Olympic and Paralympic events in 2032.
Sunshine Coast Mayor Rosanna Natoli said the submission called for the Olympic and Paralympic events and venues currently slated for the Sunshine Coast in the Brisbane 2032 Master Plan, to be retained.
"While the State Government must ensure their investment into Games infrastructure is right, the project validation process we have already followed to get the go ahead from all levels of government for our three competition venues was extremely rigorous." Mayor Natoli said.
"It demonstrated profound social and economic benefits for our community, outside hosting the Games. These are facilities our community needs.
"Each venue has been in the pipeline for many years - long before the Olympic and Paralympic Games 2032 was awarded to Brisbane - and stand to benefit our region long after the Games take place.
"The venues will increase participation in grass roots sports and recreation across the region, provide world-class competition and training facilities for our local athletes, and will have capacity to host major sporting events, attracting more tourism dollars for our local industries."
