Paul found our man-hours board on the ground so it will be moved further up out of sight.\u00c2\u00a0 Jeremy said it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s important that trail workers write down their hours on the board so we can work out how many man hours it takes per metre of trail constructed.<\/p>\n Jeremy will fix the bottom fence which has had its wires cut.\u00c2\u00a0 Please advise if you know who cut it.\u00c2\u00a0 It is designed to keep out MTB riders until the trail is ride-able and keep the bull in.<\/p>\n There was much discussion on the route that the track should take. \u00c2\u00a0Ian\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s email was tabled.\u00c2\u00a0 It was agreed that any forward taping of the route is to be done without cutting any bush and the taped route be agreed with Tyrone and Jeremy.\u00c2\u00a0 Once agreed, cutting and digging can begin on that taped section only.<\/p>\n The next working Bee is Sunday 4th<\/sup> Sep <\/strong>from 9am at the Woolshed.<\/p>\n DANZIG FELLING<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Paul read an email from Sharon Lee GWRC\u00c2\u00a0to BAMBA which advised that no felling decisions have been made yet.\u00c2\u00a0 If felled, natives were a replanting option.<\/p>\n Jeremy advised that log prices had fallen through the floor, the wharf was full of logs and the forest of 21 hectares was nearly 30 years old.\u00c2\u00a0 GWRC was waiting on the Production Plan from the feller before they could make any further decisions.<\/p>\n Tyrone said we will do minimal trail maintenance in the forest, but enough to be ready for the PNP race on 30th<\/sup>\u00c2\u00a0Oct. \u00c2\u00a0Marco will apply to GWRC to stage the event.<\/p>\n MOU<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Matt said we wanted a flexible document with no rigid commitments.
