Immediate PP Ricardo Balancy summarised the outcomes of a meeting that he, Gaetano Fina and Diana Gomez-Fullaway had with City of Casey representatives on 21 August, regarding arrangements for this year's Carols by Candlelight event.
It was clarified that this is a Rotary Club of Berwick event supported by the City of Casey and not a Council event. Therefore, it should be badged as such and we can charge an entry fee.
Other items discussed and clarified were:
- Traffic management
- Funding. There are several Council grants of $1,000 that can be applied for.
- Parking. Additional parking arrangements were identified.
- Advertising. Council will send Flyers to the Club for approval.
- Exit arrangements. A fencing panel can be removed to provide an additional exit
- Insurance. The event will require a 'Certificate of Currency' certificate.
A final decision needs to be taken on whether to proceed with the event.
