Issue 2
Welcome to 2015!
Ron Murray – Village Manager
I hope you all had a wonderful
Christmas and this year is a
happier and brighter new year
for you all.
The office has moved to Unit
96 alongside of the new
Display Unit. This is also
where the Site Office is
located.
We had a great Christmas
get-together and some of your
photos are attached for
“blackmail purposes”.
Several residents have had
their shoes moved from their
alfresco areas at night. The
villain appears to be a fox
who goes by the name of
“The Sly One”.
We have received the amenity
hall plans and they look great.
Below is an artist’s impression

Construction Update
Christopher Unicomb
Welcome to 2015, I hope the
Christmas period was relaxing
and you found time to catch
up with family and friends.
It was a chance for a wellearned break for many
tradesman who are working
on the project.
January has come and gone
with plenty of rain to settle the
dust. We have managed to
start the New Year with
another stage and three slabs
poured.
The construction site is
marching over the hill with the
help of many local trades.
The Community Facility is in
final stages of planning, some
concept images have been
released and on display at the
office (villa 96). We are
looking forward to starting this
exciting addition.
Until next edition, best wishes
for 2015.
Regards
Chris

Garden Ranger update from Shaun
Horticulture & Landscaping Specialists
Thank you to all the residents for their effort in the gardens and turfed areas.
All the plants selected for the village are suitable for this area and are widely grown
along the east coast of Australia as far as the Mid North Coast of Queensland.
Magnolia Little Gems have been selected because they are a small hardy tree that grow
best in full sun, they will also tolerate part shade however tend to be less dense in a
shady environment.
The lawns need not to be over fed or watered. Fortnightly mowing is finding large
variations in lawn growth and this is causing some lawns to be mowed low and this
presents a problem with the thatch build up.
Looking forward to another busy year ahead and beautiful looking yards & gardens.
