COMMUNITY CENTRE

The Community Centre is looking fantastic on the inside!  The kitchen is currently being installed. We are intending to hold the Official Opening some time in February 2012, however the centre will be in full use before then!

SOLAR HOT WATER

Bluedog Solar are working hard to complete all the systems in the Village that are 10yrs and older.  If you are a resident that has had a system installed on your roof and you know you have not completed any paperwork, please contact our office.  Paperwork is required to obtain the rebates back from the Government.

CARPET CLEANING

This is still progressing throughout the Village.

PEST CONTROL                                                                                             The annual pest control is due to commence in late October/early November.  Amalgamated Pest Control will be visiting your unit to treat the inside with gel which treats cockroaches, silverfish and spiders.  An outside liquid treatment will also occur to treat ants.

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

The Annual General ILU Residents meeting will be held in November at a date yet to be announced.

CYCLONE SEASON                                                                             

It is that time of year again when we start to think about and prepare for severe storms and/or cyclones. Make sure that you have torches or other lighting that does not rely on electricity, and also a radio. If there is a threat of cyclone, residents are advised to move any items that may get blown around outside your unit (such as outdoor table and chairs) into your unit.                                                       

TREES 

As you may have noticed we have commence tree trimming and removal of some dangerous tress this year. The project is costly so we have addressed areas in order of priority. The adjoining property behind units 72 - 77 Williams Way is a problem and the owners, the council and legal assistance have all be contacted.  The matter is still being discussed with Head Office regarding the course of action to be taken.

NEW RESIDENTS

This month we welcome some new residence to our Village Family.  We hope that you enjoy your new life here at C.A.R.V!
