COUNCILLORS COLUMN Dec08

by Cr Bob Millar
CHRISTMAS IS ALMOST UPON US
By the time this edition of the Grapevine is on the streets, we will be within a few weeks of yet another Christmas and I’m sure like me, you all wonder where the past 12 months have gone. There is also no doubt that the older we get the faster they come around. It has been another year of considerable achievement for our communities right across the region and one that has no doubt brought many challenges to all of us, not the least of which has been dealing with all of the aspects of the creation of our Moreton Bay Regional Council.

Here we are again, at the end of another year.  Where did the time go? 

It has been an eventful year and like many people I am looking forward to spending time with my family and friends over the Christmas break.  I hope you all have a safe, happy and peaceful Christmas and New Year.  I also hope that everyone made it through last months storms without too many dramas.

COUNCILLOR’S COLUMN Nov 08

SNAKES ON THE MOVE

It’s that time of the year when reptiles are emerging from their winter hibernation and are easily coming into contact with people and pets and often acting aggressively. Residents should be especially careful when working in gardens and walking along our many recreational trails.  It is advisable to carry a compression bandage in the event of snake bite. If not disturbed, snakes present little or no danger to people.  For further information on snake bite first aid visit www.ambulance.qld.gov.au/publications/pdf/First_Aid_Hints_Booklet_contents.pdf.
