Dear general manager
Questions with notice for Annual General Meeting
1. Why have the asbestos roof tops on numerous huts still not been sprayed with sealant according to best practice?
Supplementary: Given the local federal member is a senior minister why can't he organise this? There is $600 million in the general news today earmarked for local government projects. 
2. Why has there been no competitive job selection process for the general manager's position for nearly a year, as promised to at least one board member would happen by April 2008, even then 6 months overdue?
Supplementary: Has the board compromised itself by flouting this normal public administration principle, indeed breached its duties as directors/management committee members on the basis of bias, or negligence or whatever in failing to advertise a competitive job selection process?
3. Have financial accounts been provided and circulated to the centre board members and/or other tenants for the 'private business' that has been operating from 2003 to 2007 at the gallery on two levels, and ancillary 3 studios for private rental?
Supplementary: Have financial accounts for the new incorporated association set up since late 2007 to control the gallery and ancillary rooms (after pressure to reveal the financial accounts), been provided for year 2007-2008?
4. Is it necessary to obtain a development approval from the Local Council for say the (very big) converted shipping container on previously open space in front of Reverse Garbage? Similarly DA approval for construction next to the community food forest, and the awning in front of the gallery?
Do ARC need DA approval with Local Council!?
