3 Introduction Enjoy A BBQ with the Friendly Neighbourhoods Community Trailer A community barbeque is a great way to get to know your neighbours. The City of Melville strongly supports and encourages these types of activities, as they help to connect communities and encourage people to get to know their neighbours. The City of Melville s Friendly Neighbourhoods Community trailer makes cooking a BBQ for a large group easy. Equipped with gas barbeque bottles, cooking utensils, a marquee and lots of other useful items, the trailer has everything you need to host a community barbeque without the hassle of using your own equipment. The trailer is available free of charge and is available for use within the City of Melville. Both individuals and community groups are more than welcome to take advantage of this service. While preference will be given to Neighbourhood Watch (NHW) events, you do not have to be a member of NHW to use this trailer. Friendly Neighbourhoods grants of up to $ are available for individuals and community groups wanting to host events which help connect local communities.

4 Water cooler (15l) with tap 2 x wheel chocks On The Day of Your Event Where and when can I collect the Trailer? The trailer can be collected from the City of Melville Operations Centre located at the top of Bramanti Drive, Murdoch. You can collect the trailer anytime between 8.00am and 5.00pm seven days a week. Please call the Community Safety Service (CSS) on at least half an hour before your arrival so they can prepare the trailer, and so that staff are available to assist you in securing the trailer to your vehicle. Who can I contact on the day if I have any problems? Please contact the CSS on if you experience any problems with the trailer during your community BBQ. Are there any information materials that I can distribute on the day? There are a host of safety and crime prevention information materials available in the trailer for you to distribute at your event if you wish to do so. The resources are designed to assist the community in making safer choices to prevent becoming a victim of crime. Further information on safety and crime prevention at the City of Melville can be found by visiting Friendly Neighbourhood Project The Friendly Neighbourhood Project is a City of Melville initiative to build stronger communities. Because we lead such busy lifestyles and often do not have the opportunity to meet our neighbours, the City of Melville has developed Friendly Neighbourhoods, an initiative to make connecting with our local community a bit easier. Being on bad terms with your neighbour can make day-to-day life frustrating and difficult. Taking the time to establish a good relationship has many benefits. The community is friendlier, the neighbourhood is safer and a much nicer and more comfortable place to live. Friendly Neighbourhoods helps people take that first step in communicating with their neighbours, while also encouraging and supporting fabulous neighbourhood events such as street parties, barbeques and the Friendly Neighbour Awards! For more information visit Food Safety Guidelines You do not need to apply for any permits to host your BBQ but please ensure you take the time to read through the temporary food stall and food safety storage guidelines (appendix one) before hosting the BBQ. Please note that the submission of plans and the application fee is exempted.

REMEMBER FOOD SAFETY IS IN YOUR HANDS! FOOD SAFETY STORAGE A basic rule-of-thumb is to keep high-risk potentially hazardous foods in the right temperature zone for as long as possible. A food business is required to maintain the temperature of potentially hazardous food outside the temperature danger zone, which is either at or below 5ºC or at or above 60ºC during transport, storage and display.

9 It is safe for potentially hazardous food to be between 5ºC and 60ºC for a limited time because food-borne pathogens need time to grow to unsafe levels. As a general rule, the total time that a ready-to-eat potentially hazardous food can be at temperatures between 5ºC and 60ºC is 4 hours, known as the 4-hour/2-hour rule. The 4-hour/2-hour rule is summarised below. Any ready-to-eat potentially hazardous food, if it has been at temperatures between 5ºC and 60ºC: for a total of less than 2 hours, must be refrigerated or used immediately; for a total of longer than 2 hours but less than 4 hours, must be used immediately; or for a total of 4 hours or longer, must be thrown out. FREEZING RAW FOOD Provided that raw food is stored at the appropriate temperature ie. below 5ºC such food can be frozen for future use. The freezer temperature should be below -15 C. Frozen food should be date labeled and it is suggested that the food should be used within a one (1) month period or as per manufacturer s specification. Raw food should never be refrozen once thawed.
