FINANCE REPORT
Ric reported that the Flowerdale Trust Account is not incorporated, and the
best advice to date is to keep it that way.
Ric reported that he is currently sourcing legal help with managing and
Flowerdale Relief Fund in an open and accountable way.
Ric confirmed that David Long (background in accountancy) and Russell
Collins (auditor) are willing to be part of the Finance Work Engine. Steve
Phelan has expressed a desire to remain a signatory to the Flowerdale Fund.
John Burgess expressed a desire to be removed from the Flowerdale Relief
Fund, and the Finance Work Engine. The Finance Work Engine will be finalized

GENERAL BUSINESS
1. Events: Discussion about the co-ordinating of event dates in the
future. The Committee decided that all events which arise out of the
Flowerdale Relief Fund will be advertised by Julie Bateman in the weekly
Community Updates. It was also agreed, for the sake of communication
and full information, a notice should go out to Community Group
Leaders to inform Julie of any up-coming events. This will help ensure
that events do not clash.
2. Petty Cash Fund: Discussion about paying for small items – for
example a Flowerdale Logo Stamp, postage etc. The Committee agreed
that we need to set up a Petty Cash Fund to help defray costs incurred,
and that Ric, as Finance Work Engine Leader, should manage the fund.
Julie will email Deb Symons (VBRRA) to enquire about them financing
the Petty Cash Fund.
4. Community Forum: Sunday 19th July. The Committee agreed that this
forum is the most vital thing to happen in Flowerdale since February.
Discussion centered around the most appropriate venue. It was decided
that the Hall is the best venue for Community Meetings initiated by the
Flowerdale CR Committee. This is because it is central, familiar to more
people, especially the older residents of Flowerdale, and has adequate
parking. However on Sunday 19th July the forum will be held at the Rec
Reserve because the monthly Flowerdale Market is being held at the
Hall.
6. Mailing List: Annie reported that the quest to a full list of Flowerdale
Residents and addresses is ongoing. John Coliacovo has offered to help.
Julie will contact Liam McCarthy, Deb Symons and Eryn Hyloe to ask if
we can use their mailing list for Council Rates Billings to access our
dispersed community. Annie to make contact with Ron & Genevieve
Cross on the Service Road as it is thought they may have a mailing list.
7. Natives @ Moores Road: Pete reported that the Australian
Horticultural Association have donated 180 natives for the Moores Road
Reserve.
8. Camp Bambara: Pete, on behalf of CERES, asked the Committee for in-
principal support for the CERES annual training camp (30 Yr 10/11
students & 10 trainers) to be held in Flowerdale. The Group would adopt
the project of erecting the pergola at Moores Road. The CERES Training
Camp is normally held at Camp Bambara which was destroyed during
the fires.
The Committee agreed to in principal support, but asked Pete to
immediately communicate with the Altona Lion’s Club so that they are
completely in the picture.
