The delay of a single signature has repeatedly prevented the release of a key affordable housing strategy for the Western Downs.
The strategy, paid for by mining company QGC, was presented to council for adoption in a meeting last Wednesday and was due to be released to the media and public on the same day.
Instead, the report has been delayed multiple times, with council repeatedly changing the release date.
Council said yesterday the strategy would become available today.
Both QGC and Western Downs Regional Council have had access to the strategy since before Christmas.
Councillor Ray Jamieson said the council had been "hounding" QGC to get back to them after they had perused the strategy, completed by consultants KPMG.
Under contractual arrangements, the report could not be released to the public until the coal seam gas company had looked at the report.
