Minutes of the previous meeting: Moved to be a true and accurate record by H Gall, seconded by
V Scouller. Carried
4. Business arising:
The windmill has not been fixed yet, and Dennis Ehrlich is going to look at it and fix it. The trough has been hooked back up.
Attempted to contact group about brochure with no luck. The invoice is to be sent/forwarded to Donna Ashhurst at Dalby Regional Council.
Jan has yet to deal with the plants at the cottage.
Ros has spoken to Bob McCarthy about the baker’s oven. The reports have gone to Garry Cook (spelling – I’m not sure who it is). Ros needs to check if the mortar is lime or cement and pass these details on.
There needs to be a shed, so everyone is to keep thinking about it and keep an eye out for anything that could be suitable. Peter Ireland has suggested we develop a plan of the area, including the shed, and the location of the post and rail fence that Darcy is going to build, to assist with planning.
Peter Ireland has fixed the water coming in at the light.
Working bee at the Cottage
Ros has the account for the ramp and is to apply for a grant under the minor grant scheme, after contacting Ed to see if we should pay it and then be reimbursed, or wait for the grant before paying it.
Rotary fete went well, with a net profit of $240.60.
Jan hasn’t heard from the Vintage Veteran’s Chevrolet Club of Queensland, but it is all under control.
Darryl is talking to Donna about signs for the information centre. One suggestion is to have a flag on the second flagpole saying open on it, or to ask for an “i” sign.
Peter Kelly has asked George about the mowing, who will pass the information onto the relevant person at the Council.
Ros has attempted to contact Shaun about the signs, unsuccessfully so far. Plan is to put them up on private property, with the owner’s permission, without troubling Main Roads about it.

There is to be a town meeting in early April.
Concern
that people are not staying at the
Jan has been contacted about
catering for the Ag Solutions breakfast.
Last time, they rang up and cancelled a couple of days beforehand. Jan said we are interested in doing it,
provided they don’t cancel again. The
meeting is at the Memorial Hall,
Proposed that we charge $15 a head – there are expected to be 50-60 people there.
Moved by P Ireland and seconded by M Atkinson. Carried.
It should be suggested to the Council that more publicity is needed for the dates of their Jandowae visits, such as putting it in the date claimers in the magazine rather than the Regional Update.
There are problems with frogs in the toilet at the cottage again.
A powerpoint at the Memorial Hall is not working – the one that the pie warmer plugs into. Darryl will talk to Mick and see if it can be fixed, as well as suggesting that the microwaves be checked or replaced, the powerpoints be fixed and the pie warmer be checked. Darryl and Betty are to take care of.
