meeting. The proposal is to cover the western side of the tiger turf area in front of the school using twin or a
single sail. The quotes range between $9500 and $12500.This is a significant project, so please come to the
next meeting and have your input or contact me. Thanks to Matt for giving the cricket team some coaching for
the carnival last week. Chris Cleary and I met with Deb Frecklington, State MP for Nanango regarding the
lack of flexibility with school bus eligibility. She has 6 other cases of schools and families with similar issues.

A notice to ratepayers and residents of Bowenville, Irvingdale, Kommamurra and Formartin districts: Following last year's public meeting about the closure
of the Bowenville dump, a Delegation met with Mayor Antonio and Councillors Sommerfield and Gouldson. At that meeting, the Mayor promised to provide
skip bins and a key system, in lieu of our closed dump, for local residents to dispose of waste. This did not eventuate. Upon follow-up of this matter, a
Councillor suggested the provision of a number of wheelie bins at Bowenville. After further prompting, a skip bin was promised at the same site for domestic
and farm waste. With no further notice, about one week later six plastic wheelie bins were placed in the area near the highway together with instructions on
a sign. If you are unhappy with this situation as the permanent replacement for our dump then please contact Nancy Sommerfield on 0499 774 278 or Paul
Antonio on 0429 954 109. Please pass this message on to other concerned residents who may not receive this newsletter.
