          Bowls Club site     legally described           as        lot 94 SP137431     Rufous
          Street   Peregian   Beach      ,
                                             which is located about 250metres
          north -west of the traditional Peregian Beach Neighbourhood
      (Village Square) Centre with the existing 2 storey ’Marquesas’
      commercial development adjacent to the site and between it
      and the Neighbourhood Centre.
E.S 2 The Peregian Bowls Club site is privately owned and is included
      in the Open Space Recreation zone, a legacy of its original
      tenure as Crown land and ownership by TM Burke Pty Ltd
      (Development Lease), and thence more recently the Peregian
      Beach Bowls Club (till about 2006) who approached the Pine
      Rivers Memorial Bowls Club in about 2004 seeking assistance
      because the Club had been allegedly trading insolvent and
      unable to pay their debts before it finally was sold to the
      PRMBC in 2006 and a 10 year lease back arrangement entered
      into. Notwithstanding a number of assistance initiatives by the
      PRMBC it again became apparent that the Peregian Bowls
      Club would be trading insolvent and unable to meet its debts
      and it was placed in the hands of a Liquidator.

      and Roselyn White of the White IGA Group, local Sunshine
