The Birth of the Kedron Brook Catchment Branch-WPSQAt a well attended public meeting on 30 April 2002, it was decided that a Kedron Brook Catchment Branch of the WPSQ be formed.People at the meeting were from Bushcare Groups, local councils (Brisbane City Council and Pine Rivers Shire Council), existing members of the WPSQ and interested individuals. Strong support was shown to establish the Branch under the auspices of the Wildlife Preservation Society of Queensland which had a long association with the Brook. The Branch was to have a broad charter but its initial focus was to continue the work of the existing Kedron Brook Catchment Network. Formation of an incorporated association meant that the KBCB could apply for and manage funds, manage and provide insurance cover for 'whole-of catchment' type projects. An interim committee consisting of members of the informal steering group was elected. These people included Philip Rowland as President, Helen Moriarty as Secretary and Donald Hopkins as Treasurer. |
