Figs on the move
Several fig trees removed for the new amphitheatre in Pine Rivers Park will be relocated to provide shade elsewhere in the park. The trees have an estimated value of $180,000. Source (Moreton Bay Regional Council): Council relocates majestic figs (August, 2008)
Keep the green stuff
Instead of taking green waste to the dump, Moreton Bay Regional Council wants lawnmowing and gardening service providers to encourage composting at clients' properties. This has environmental advantages, reduces the need for landfill and represents cost savings for contractors. Source: Council encourages contractors to compost green waste (July, 2008)
