The Allan Maruff House that was the site of the Johnstone Shire Council Community Services staff,Meals on Wheels and Respite lost the front of the building in Cyclone Larry. The council had the original facade of the building rebuilt with a minor change to the original plan for wheelchair access. Well done!! Now we have a fine example of Innisfail Art Deco Facade.
