| Brisbane City Council Meeting a Big Day for Wynnum-Manly |
 Cr Peter Cumming said the Brisbane City Council meeting held yesterday, Tuesday 9 June, included a number of important decisions for the Wynnum-Manly Ward. The tender for the lease of the Manly swimming pool was approved. Six tenders had been received for the Manly pool lease. The successful tenderer was Whitsunday Aquatics Pty Ltd which currently runs the pool in Proserpine in North Queensland.
Cr Cumming said the lease was for a period of 19 years and 9 months. The rental payable was $13,000 per annum plus CPI adjustments annually.
As part of staged improvements over the first 6 years the lessee had agreed to heat the 25m pool, add a program pool, refurbish the entry and kiosk area, renovate or re-use the residence for another purpose, and add seating areas around the pool. The total cost of the additional improvements was $530,000.

| Local Business: Meet the Author at TLC Book - Manly |
  Come along and meet Christine Bongers as she introduces her new book Dust. Reservations are essential, please contact the shop by phone or email for further information. Tickets are $10.00pp and include a glass of wine or coffee & nibbles.
Dust
Twelve-year-old Cecilia Maria was named after saints and martyrs to give her something to live up to. Over my dead body, she vows. In the blinding heat of 1970s Queensland, she battles six brothers on her side of the fence, and the despised Kapernicky girls, lurking on the other side of the barbed wire. Secrets are buried deep, only to surface decades later when Cecilia drags her own reluctant teenagers back home to dance on a grave and track down some ghosts. Warm but tough-minded, DUST glitters with a rare and subtle wit, illuminating the shadows that hang over from childhood and finding beauty in unexpected places.
A fantastic book for all readers, not just young adults. Christine Bongers is a Brisbane author writing for young adults and grown-ups. Born and bred in Biloela, Central Queensland, she moved to Brisbane to attend university where she completed a degree in Journalism.
