BURGO’S SHED
MONDAY 12TH APRIL 2010
When the Future Flowerdale Forum I was held in July 2009, the issue of the Kinder
location was discussed. A project group had to decide the location of the Flowerdale
Kindergarten and a decision was made by DEET to have it located at the school, thereby
having all childrens’ educational services on the same campus. Subsequent discussions
and negotiations resulted in a 14 – 1 vote that the Kinder be located with the Flowerdale
Primary School.
Shire subsequently ran due process re Jarara and finally voted to disband the Jarara
Committee of Management for two reasons – firstly because there had been no AGM and
secondly because the committee was deemed by them to be redundant. The MSC
collapsed the Jarara Committee.
Other locations for a possible Kinder site were suggested and these were at Creekside and
Burnside, but neither was deemed to be a suitable option.
On 23rd December 2009 a final decision was made to locate the new Community House at
the old Jarara site.
Bill Shorten also talked about Communications as a Federal issue. He outlined some
information about TV, High Speed Broad Band and Fire Warnings. One concern is that
when digital TV turns on, will Flowerdale have the reception infrastructure necessary.
ACTION:
Bill Shorten to arrange a direct visit with Steven Conroy, to investigate the supply of a
satellite for people not receiving Melbourne TV.
A meeting has been organised for 28th April. Attendees to include Telstra, VBRRA, senior
officials from PM’s Department, Council Officers & proponents, and FRC.
Bill also stated that the rebate on Satellite Phones (capped at $1000) has risen from
60% to 85% and this will be a little helpful.
