6. Street trees and wildlife boxes. Follow up earlier requests to Council and query Council’s policy on street trees, and whether Section 94 money is allocated for same.

AON Insurance have tailored policies for voluntary associations, and public liability would cost about $700. The activities undertaken by BMPCA are covered by public liability insurance held by partner bodies, eg Council, Surf club. May seek legal advice for further consideration of this matter.
