Gas Update March 16

Currigee Gas Update
The Residents committee has been investigating the supply of 45 litre LPG gas to our resident community since supply ceased at the end of 2014. There have been many discussions with Gold Coast City Council, State Government, Couran Cove residents, Tipplers, Island operators and potential suppliers. We have looked at storage options, shared facilities and council involvement. Suppliers are not particularly interested in servicing Currigee.

It appears that the only solution going forward will be to engage a supplier and providing the barge transport for them which will be an additional cost.

It is important to note at this stage that with changes in regulations and codes in 2015, many residents need to upgrade their gas fittings to be compliant. Upgrades must be done by a qualified gas fitter before the new supplier can supply to you.

Please find a quote here for all residences which Andrew Stewart has kindly organized.

The gas fitter will be on the island in the next month. We are yet to finalize dates. You will need to authorize via email that you want the work done and also give us details of how to access your residence. Clearly you can commission your own person but you will need a compliance certificate and plate before you can get supply.

We will be in touch again shortly to let you know timing and how to give the service person approval and access details.

Clean Up Australia Day 2015

Clean Up Australia Day is fast approaching and is our opportunity to make sure that the beach remains in pristine condition.

As in previous years we will be cleaning the beach in conjunction with the residents from Couran Point.

Here are some quick details about the event:

When: Easter Saturday at 2.30pm

Where: Meet at the beach entrance of the Southern Track and work our way North

What to bring: Gloves, garbage bags, vehicle transport if you have it, and as many hands as you can muster!

There will be a BBQ held after the event with the Couran Point residents following the Clean-Up.  A BBQ and cooking utensils will be provided, just bring what you want to eat!

Look forward to seeing you there!
