      Hi there, I would like to know if there is unused facilities in the island or a shelter that is abandoned. Thank you.

          Sorry for this late response, we want to make a recycling facility or something similar but to cut costs, we were wondering if there was any unused or abandoned shelter that we were hoping to put this facility in.

            Hi Grace,

            According to our scoping team who went there, they are unaware of any unused facilities except for the church, which was closed to the community due to structural issues.

            It’s good to see you have these ideas to incorporate into your design. Note that TSIRC, as your key stakeholder, decides on facilities and services and governs other Torres Strait islands. For example, they might trial certain services/facilities on different islands and roll them out on Saibai Island later.

            I suggest you include this in your recommendations to the Council as part of your design proposal.

            I hope this helps.

            Regards,
            Jean
