Tallebudgera Creek Dam was constructed in the 1950s on Tallebudgera Creek and long since forgotten as one of the southern Gold Coast's water supply reservoirs. In 2006, after two years of investigation, reports and public consultations, work to upgrade the existing Tallebudgera Creek Dam to required Department of Natural Resources and Water standards, was to commence soon. Options considered were to permanently lower the level of the spillway, install flood-triggered gates and removal of the dam.[1][2]
