Please - no dogs at Village gatherings

On behalf of the Community Development Committee, I would like to request that all villagers and their visitors leave their animals at home when we have village gatherings.  This is because of the perceived safety and comfort of people.  For example, we have someone in the village who is terrified of dogs and it would be unbearable for them if a dog was present. 
 
Thank you for understanding, and we thank you for leaving you animals at home at these times.

Quick summary of Sunday's GM outcomes

At Sunday's General Meeting, a quorum was achieved and all three resolutions were passed with no dramas.

Thanks to all villagers who came to the meeting or sent in a proxy to make this possible.

The meeting outcome means that:
  1. The Statutory Officers of the Community Corporation are empowered to proceed as soon as possible with the transfer of Lot 145 (Market St environs) from the Development Company to the Community Corporation.
  2. The Works Maintenance Group are empowered to proceed with purchase of a more robust ride-on mower.
  3. The Arts & Cultural Committee and Play-Spaces Group are empowered to proceed with building a play sculpture behind the Amphitheatre screen, just west of the fire pit.

In addition, a show of hands gave Jacqui Good the mandate to set in motion exploration of options for encouraging sightseers to leave their cars and walk rather than drive through the Village.

Those present appreciated by acclamation the good organisation, preparation and presentation by the Management team that made a positive and efficient meeting possible.

The official Minutes of the meeting will be posted on the Minutes page of the Members section of the website when completed.
