Gas Update Jan 20

Currigee Gas Update
As you are no doubt aware, our gas supply issue has yet to be resolved. We have tried a political approach through both the previous and current state governments and have got no worthwhile traction – as much as we wish there was, there is no legislative obligation for any supplier to continue to supply us and hence current government are politely washing their hands of it all. It is just not a vote winning issue at all.

Our only option is to find a commercial solution.

To this end we have investigated every option that we have been able to identify. We are presently discussing one possibility and to assist us in the process I ask that each household complete the attached survey to give us an accurate estimation of our likely demand and the methods to deliver this service.

We will provide more details and background once/if this possibility comes to fruition – in the interim both a quick and honest response from as many households as possible is very important to get an outcome here

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!
