Karen to contact Sue, Chartered Accountant, to show her how to change GST to 15%. Discussion on using Term Deposit, but decided that the Online Saver Account was the best rate considering we can use the money anytime without breaking a Term Deposit.

SUB-COMMITTEE REPORTS
BIKE FEST REPORT. Keith was absent from meeting
Firstly thanks for your Council votes. I will endeavour to serve Cycling well for the next 3 years, your contribution to the general cycling scene in our district has been huge and gives us heart and hope for our bid for the Centre of Excellence.
Some other appreciation:
· · Great to see you all there for the launch of Bikefest, as always, mentioned it was spawned by Bike Taupo.
· · Similarly The ETA Public Open Day. We had cyclists down the ETA first, officially,!!!!!! Yay, we know you all rode it unofficially. Over a thousand bikes of all sizes.!
· · The C of E, realize this is outside our advocacy role but still a one off, and once only, for the world of cycling and the economics of our district We are outsiders, but so were most of the councillors elected last Saturday.?
Bikefest programme is taking shape. The highlight could be this Mega Ramp (13m high) and a OZ v NZ competition.
Our final delivery rests with the Youthtown funding.
Full programme published soon.
Sorry cant be at meeting.
