As a result of a community meeting held on 8 May 2025, we are investigating flying fox colony management actions in parkland adjacent to New Settlement Road, Narangba.

We want to hear from residents directly impacted by proposed actions which aim to discourage flying foxes from roosting in undesirable areas.

To have your say on the proposal between 1 December 2025 and 9 January 2026, you can:

• complete the online survey
• email your feedback to yoursay@moretonbay.qld.gov.au
• call (07) 3205 0555 and ask to speak to the Environmental Services Team.

We are investigating the installation of "canopy-mounted sprinklers" adjacent to residential properties backing onto parkland where flying foxes roost, north of New Settlement Road, Narangba. See below map for proposed location of the sprinkler system.

The proposal aims to manage a flying fox colony within the location or discourage flying foxes from roosting in undesirable areas.

If implemented, oscillating high pressure sprinkler heads would be mounted to selected trees and programmed to activate at scheduled times when flying foxes are present.

The intent of the sprinklers would be to move flying foxes away from private property boundaries and increase the distance between the colony and houses.
