April Update




No building permit yet, but it is very close. In around a week we hope.






We have appointed a builder, an experienced straw bale builder who lives fairly locally. He is well on the way to organising the permit and seems keen to start.


The existing bridge has been spruced up with a new deck of 2nd hand redgum sleepers to replace the treated pine. This will allow most trucks access, and larger trucks can still use the older track through our dry creek. The driveway has been reformed as well and top dressed with road base for all weather use. It will need regrading after the building is complete and all truck traffic has finished.






We have placed the water tanks in position with a bit of help from a mate at the CFA, Roger, who pushed them into place with his tractor. 3 thousand gallons of water delivered to start the builder off. Let's hope he starts using it soon!

Cheers,
Deb & Nic
