Dear Readers, CONTENTS
There are economic headwinds for all
Australians with the big news currently being 4 ROADMAP TO EASING RESTRICTIONS
that the country is looking like heading into its
first recession in thirty years. 6 MANGO HILL NEWS
All levels of government, local, state and federal 9 COVID RELIEF
are throwing money at the economy and relying
on everyone to keep that money circulating, by
subsidising wages, increasing welfare payments 10 BRISBANE ROAR
and offering incentives for people to invest in their businesses and homes.
13 BRIBIE ISLAND MURAL RESTORATION
We need to remain aware however, that broad measures by government to
stimulate the economy will not translate into an even and equal financial spread at 16 MILLOVATE MORETON BAY
the individual and family level. So, as always, stay safe and look out for one another.
As has been seen in previous recessions, recovery takes years and this economic 18 SERVICE SECTOR RECESSION
decline will be no different, however unlike previous recessions, we will likely see
broader and deeper economic slowing with ordinarily resilient business sectors such
as services and hospitality, taking a big hit (see article pg. 18). 22 RECIPES
On a brighter note, communities can look forward to improved infrastructure and 23 DEAR ALICE
amenities, with a lot of federal, state and council funding flowing down to local
infrastructure. 24 HOROSCOPES
Until next month, we hope you enjoy this edition of Best Of Local Moreton Bay.
