Chairman’s Report for year end December 2020
In the last Chairman’s report for the year end 2019, a comment was made that there was no indication at that stage that income would be impacted by any changes. However, what started as another year in the regular operation of the Ogilvie Hall took a significant change of direction in the middle of March of this year. As the well documented Covid 19 pandemic developed, and restrictions on the use of public and community buildings were put in place, it was necessary to close the Hall.
While limited opening occurred later in the year as restrictions were relaxed (and then reinstated), income for the Hall was significantly impacted. Users were impacted to varying degrees, with the Oaklea Montessori school hardest hit, and even when the Hall doors were able to reopen, some users did not return.
The hiatus did at least enable further refurbishment work to be undertaken, with the interior painting completed, the vinyl flooring in the front and rear lobbies and toilets replaced, as well as some further external repairs to the wooden edging of the roof.
As a committee, we are extremely fortunate to have the ongoing services of Dave Huck in his role as the Caretaker, supported by his wife Sue, in both ensuring the high standards of cleanliness of the building continues to protect our users, and working with the users to ensure the necessary Covid guidelines remain adhered to while they are in place.
I am grateful for the continued support of the committee during this difficult time. As we go forward into 2021 and beyond, I will continue to work with the committee to ensure the ongoing smooth operation of the Hall.
