SECOND REPLY:

For your original question 2, we provide the following breakdown which were the costs relate to the turf preparation and maintenance from July – November 2020.

  • July $4,066
  • Aug $2,065
  • Sept $5,391
  • Oct $10,552
  • Nov $3,000 Total $25,074.

    The above cost was funded from a grant from the former Hillary Commission which Council had held for a number of years and which we were able to apply to this community event.

    Council also provided a $25,000 excl GST grant paid to MRU on 18 September 2020 to support the cost of running this event. There was also a commitment to underwrite the event to a maximum of $50k. We are yet to receive any call on that underwriting from the MRU.

    We have also attached emails that may have been omitted from our earlier reply.
