13.02.2022 It is with a very heavy heart I am posting this update on the Station Master House, thought to be built by Gilbert Burnett about June 1886 when he took out a mo...rtgage for 250 pounds located at 509 Main Road, Wellington Point You may recall Council was recently involved in P&E Court proceedings in regard to the demolition of this old house which is the subject of inclusion on the local heritage register in the Planning Scheme. The application before the Court sought the exercise of the Court’s discretion to excuse non-compliance in this case the substantial start of the demolition within 2 months of the issue of the permit. The permit was issued on 17 November 2020. Following a two day hearing last month, His Honour Judge Jones yesterday decided to excuse non-compliance with s.71(2) of the Building Act having regard to the sequence of events and the impact of the Minister’s Stop Work Order, which prevented the contractor from commencing the demolition. This means the demolition can now proceed. I understand may occur shortly.

09.01.2022 Redland Hospital will get a $62 million Stage 1 expansion including a new Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and 32-bed ward with completion targeted for late 2022. This... will be jointly funded by the Queensland Government ($32 million) and the Federal Government ($30 million). Deputy Premier and Minister for Health and Ambulance Services Steven Miles said the State Government will also spend $6 million on detailed planning for Stage 2 which will involve a bigger upgrade and major expansion of the hospital. Redland Hospital has seen a 34 per cent growth in admissions and a 22 per cent increase in outpatient appointments said Kim Richards MP for the state seat of Redlands. Stage 2 will be a larger expansion project that increases the hospital’s self-sufficiency, which will allow the community to access more services closer to home and will reduce pressure on other hospitals she said.

02.01.2022 Come join in on the Christmas fun this weekend in our gorgeous village

02.01.2022 Well this is a different twist on what we’ve previously known. Have you got your tickets yet?

01.01.2022 It’s the week the fat man comes to town, let’s keep an eye on each other & not wear a frown T'was a week before Christmas, And all through the town, People wore masks,... That covered their frown. The frown had begun Way back in the Spring, When a global pandemic Changed everything. They called it corona, But unlike the beer, It didn’t bring good times, It didn’t bring cheer. Airplanes were grounded, Travel was banned. Borders were closed Across air, sea and land. As the world entered lockdown To flatten the curve, The economy halted, And folks lost their nerve. From March to July We rode the first wave, People stayed home, They tried to behave. When summer emerged The lockdown was lifted. But away from caution, Many folks drifted. Now it’s December And cases are spiking, Wave two has arrived, Much to our disliking. It’s true that this year Has had sadness a plenty, We’ll never forget The year 2020. And just ‘round the corner - The holiday season, But why be merry? Is there even one reason? To decorate the house And put up the tree, Who will see it, No one but me. But outside my window The rain gently falls, And I think to myself, Let’s deck the halls! So, I gather the ribbon, The garland and bows, As I play those old carols, My happiness grows. Christmas is not cancelled And neither is hope. If we lean on each other, I know we can cope Keep it going! (Copy&Paste) See more
