Payment

Proof of residency in the City of Vincent must be shown to be able to lease a plot (a current rates notice or utility bill showing your name and a City of Vincent address is acceptable). Once a plot becomes available you will be contacted for confirmation of your membership and payment. Once your application has been accepted you will be invoiced.
Members will be expected to volunteer twice per annum at a working bee, event, fundraiser or special project as determined by the committee from time to time.
