13. CBD

With the warmer weather the CBD has been quieter than September. Robin Granites has been on sick leave for 3 weeks. He will be busy in the first week of November meeting with shop owners.

We had the need to withdraw a public places permit, the Organisation was “harassing" members of the public for donations. We received complaints and shut down the stall.

79

The public art festival in the CBD has been very positive with many members of the public making comment. Parrtjima - A Festival in Light, at the end of September was a huge success with many members of the public requesting it go on longer.

We expect the CBD to become less busy as we approach the Christmas season.
