rbain@somerset.qld.gov.au should find Mr. Bain.  He can only do what "Council" tell him to do though.  "Council" is the Mayor and the Councillors.

The meeting started at 9.00am so it may be a bit late now.

Well done to those who sent emails, text messages and made phone calls.

A temporary stay of execution was granted with council approving the spending of $40 000 to do temporary maintenance to keep the bridges open short term. (1-2 years)

A fair enough outcome.

Thanks to Somerset Regional Council members for responding to community input / comment.

Jeez they must be broker than Carntdo?
 Mayor Lehman will have to go without his lunch to pay for it.
Maybe they can install a toll point on Harpeng Road.

I did have a post about a Councillor deleting my email without reading it.  I was wrong. Cr Moriaty read my email on her iPad and actually moved the motion to keep the bridge open.  My apologies to the Councillor.
