“In many cases these are vacant lots which at some point may have been identified as being required by council but are now no longer needed and may be suitable to be developed into residential housing.”Mayor Thomas said housing and homelessness was a complex issue, but local government played an important role as a planning authority. “Land may need to be rezoned or go through the necessary planning approvals to be developed for housing,” she said.

Nic Street, advocating for changes to legislation to recognise Assistance Dogs supporting people with a range of disabilities beyond sight and hearing impairments.Onadvocacy, we also made a number of submissions to Government on gambling, planning, waste and local government review. On behalf of Council and our community I also wrote to Road Safety Minister Michael Ferguson, to seek assistance to address honing; and to Premier Jeremy Rockliff on antisocial behaviour and the need for youth early intervention programs in our community –both receiving positive responses indicating a willingness to work together on these issues.

THEY say “once a Girl Guide, always a Girl Guide”.Andnow, more than 50 years after their unit first formed, some original members of the 4th Glenorchy Guides are getting together for a reunion next month. Guiding was founded in England in the early 1900s and came to Tasmania soon after, and was happening in Glenorchy by 1927. Guiding flourished in Glenorchy in the 1960s. In response to the number of girls wanting to join up, a new group – the 4th Glenorchy Guides - was opened in 1967.Toenable Guides to continue on after turning 16, the Milpara Rangers company was launched in February 1972 when, after much fundraising, the Glenorchy Guide Hall was officially opened.Guides, Rangers and Brownies celebrated the opening by marching through the city streets. Now, the founding leaders and many of those original Guides are gathering together on 1 October to share their Guiding stories and memories.Areunion of the 4th Glenorchy Guides and Milpara Rangers will be held at St Mark’s Church in Bellerive from noon. Every GlenorchyformerGuide is invited to come along, bring their memorabilia and reminisce about their Guiding days. To RSVP, phone Jan on 6272 1902.

THE Glenorchy Jobs Hub recently achieved a significant milestone, filling its 500th job in just oneOveryear.the past 12 months, the Hub has bridged the local unemployment gap by working to match local job seekers with suitable employers.The500th successful job seeker was Glenorchy resident Paul Hniat, who had worked at Jane Franklin Hall for more than 30 years until being made redundant in 2020.Paul worked with the Hub team to build his skills and knowledge, leading to his employment as a trade assistant with operations and maintenance services company Programmed. “The Hub team provided access to countless resources, going above and beyond my expectations,” Paul said. “They have always offered encouragementsupport, and advice.

As part of their commitment to doing good in the area, Rotarians were responsible for organising and installing the parks, which once completed were formally handed over to the Glenorchy Council and the Derwent Valley Council as a valuable asset for the community.

In June 2020, in response to the COVID pandemic, Council agreed to bring forward ten projects from the Economic Development Strategy to stimulate economic activity in sectors hardest hit by the pandemic.Twoofthe projects brought forward were the Greenshoots microbusiness incubator project and the Zinc Link pathway project. These projects were funded through a $5 million loan from the State Government’s $200 million Local Government Loan Program.Thetwo projects have not proceeded, and in consultation with the government Council officers have determined that the Zinc Link and Greenshoots funding can be reallocated to other projects.Council agreed the project that best meets these factors is a proposal to improve accessibility and safety in the city by constructing a shared pathway in Tolosa Street, providing connections to the existing on-road cycle lanes. A second project supported is a flood mitigation project at Glenlusk Road and Collinsvale Road. Council’s Quarterly Report

OLDER Tasmanians are choosing to downsize as the overheated housing market returns to some normality.Withbuyer activity still very much alive in Tasmania and building costs and labour shortages at an all-time high, many Tasmanians are choosing to downsize earlier.

The housing market is transitioning back to average market conditions where there is a good balance between demand and“Thesupply.demand for homes in Tasmania is still high, however we are seeing supply to meet the demands of those purchasers,” Khan said. With more than 155 years in Tasmania, Roberts is bringing decades of experience to the ever-changing market.

“We have weathered the market impacts of two World Wars, the Great Depression, the Global Financial Crisis and the COVID pandemic, so if you are looking for a safe pair of hands and sound advice from industry leaders please reach out today,” Khan said. If you want to find out more about downsizing phone Roberts Real Estate on 6272 8555 to talk through what is available, the process involved and rebates on offer for you and your circumstances.

Roberts Real Estate State Manager Khan Dick said downsizing could be a great option for someone looking to sell their family home, but also divest their investment properties. “The current market is still good, so if you are considering downsizing or divestment it could be a really great time to do so,” he“Wesaid.are seeing a new cohort of older sellers moving through the market.“Although they may love where they live, the reality is many are needing to consider the benefits of downsizing. “It is a really expensive time to renovate, so instead of having to pay to put in lifts and modern comforts older Tasmanians are opting to move into something smaller that stillpropertymarket,outstanding.whatwasbetweenpandemic,inoverpricedjustabsolutelywas,”notbuyerstatenorthstartingtheincreasinganotherandformerpensionerstransferreductionprovidesdutytheirpensionersGovernmentshiftneeds.”accommodatesalreadytheirAsaresultofthistheTasmanianissupportingdownsizinghomesbyofferingaconcession.Theconcessiona50percentofpropertydutyforeligiblewhoselltheirhomeinTasmaniadownsizebybuyinghomeinthestate.WithhousingsupplyinTasmania,oncechaoticmarketistolevelout.“FromwhatIseeintheandsouthofthethereisstillplentyofactivity,butitisjustasfreneticasitonceKhansaid.“Thingsarestillselling;itisnotamarkettosellproperties.“Ifwetravelbacktimetobeforethethedifferencewhatyourhouseworththenanditisworthnowis“Regardlessoftheifyouhaveatosellyouarebuyingintothesame market.“Soyou are not necessarily losing money if you are selling in a market that isn’t as buoyant as it once was.”

THE Tasmania State Emergency Service (SES) has recently adopted the Australian Warning System (AWS) for flood emergencies and launched an SES Flood Warnings System which will provide advice to the community regarding what to do when a flood happens. Like the AWS for other emergencies, the Tasmania SES Flood Warning System consists of three ascending warning levels: Advice (yellow), Watch and Act (orange), and Emergency Warning (red). The warnings are presented in triangles, with a house in the centre and flood levels underneath. These warning triangles will be issued with a set of callto-actions specific to the emergency event.

“While States and Territories are implementing the AWS at different times subject to their risks and resources, it will be the case in the near future that no matter where it is in the country or what type of emergency is occurring, the message about what to do will be aligned,” Tasmania SES Acting Director Leon Smith said. The AWS was adopted by Tasmania for bushfires in September 2021. Following the adoption for flood emergencies, there are plans to adopt the AWS for storm emergencies from 2023.

Jo Cordell-Cooper HIKING can be enjoyed at any age and stage; I’ve always said that. But on a recent winter hike into the Central Highlands, I was surprised at how quickly a strong and savvy hiker overtook me and left me in their dust. I’m still feeling quite capable all things considered, so I pondered – was she extraordinarily swift, or had I become slow? I think the truth is a combination of both. As a personal trainer in my 50s it was easy for me to reflect on how I’ve been hiking lately and why I might be so much slower. My dog is aging, and my hiking buddies now are social andSo,steady.what to do about this? Can I train so I’m able to keep up with my younger and fitter hiking buddies? The answer is yes! Here’s what to do to improve your walking speed:First, ditch the dog –not every day, but take a few 20-30 minute walks weekly where you can walk faster. Regardless of your age if you frequently walk fast and push it on some hills or stairs, even for shorter hikes your body will become accustomed to Littlethis. efforts add up.

This may be due animals are too young or too small for adoption or because they are recovering from illness or surgery, or they need special TLC as is sometimes the case with animals seized by our inspectors. We also take care of companion animals of people experiencing family/domestic violence, homelessness, or medical facility.

Jen also recommends taking into consideration your cat’s daily food allowance when giving treats.“We want them to be challenged, not stressed, so it’s important to check in with them to ensure they are enjoying themselves,” Jen said. Now, your cat may just be content exploring your garden – and that is fine; we don’t have to climb a mountain! What is important is that you are spending time together in a safe and enriching environment. It’s good for the cat, and it’s even better for the human.Keep an eye out for the Catwalk Challenge from 1-10 October and check out Jen’s harness training guide on the Ten Lives website.

Tips for younger people The Anglicare team offers these tips for younger people who live on a limited income.

ANGLICARE operates the National Debt Helpline in Tasmania. It’s a free service for Tasmanians, operated by Tasmanians.MatO’Brien is the southern program manager for financial counselling at Anglicare. “You don’t have to be in financial crisis to ring the Helpline,” Mat said. “You don’t need to have accumulated any debts, despite the name of the service! We all know that the cost of living has risen. You might need some simple hints and tips on how to balance your budget and make your income go further.“We’re here to support you whatever your situation.”Matsaid the earlier you reach out, the better. “Our conversation will be about much more than numbers,” he said. “We will challenge you and motivate you. We will explain the consequences of the choices you are making about money. “If you are in debt we can assist you to negotiate an affordable repayment plan. And in some cases we can arrange for a debt waiver.”Matencourages people to accept and admit that they can’t afford everything they would like to “There’shave.so much pressure for people to think that spending money is good and makes you and others happy,” he said. “This can have a negative impact on both your mental and physical health.“Afinancial counsellor can coach you on how to have conversations about money and commitments with others in your family, including children.”

Ruby’s story

The Anglicare team is particularly concerned about the take-up of Buy Now Pay Later programs, such as AfterPay and similar products.“These products are very easy to obtain. If you use them without a budget to work with, you will run into problems,” Mat said. “We explain the hidden fees and charges. If you miss a payment or pay late, you can be hit with a fee that can be as big as $15. Then there are fixed monthly fees, a payment processing fee and some providers also charge an establishment fee.“It may become difficult to get approval for a loan to buy a car or a house in the years ahead if you have this kind of debt. Even late payments will affect your credit rating. “We show people where their money is going. We explain how working more to earn more to cover the cost of material things is not the answer. We talk to people about what it will feel like to achieve a long-term financial goal.”

Lewis’s story Lewis* signed up for the BeforePay app. This gave him early access to his fortnightly salary, for a flat fee according to the amount that he borrowed. He spent the money and was then ‘short’ well before his next payday. “In the beginning I was borrowing very small amounts, like $50,” he“Thensaid. the company increased my borrowing capacity so that I could borrow 25 per cent of my pay in advance. And the fees went up.

Ruby* called the National Debt Helpline because her debts had become unmanageable. The constant phone calls she was getting from creditors were making herSheanxious.cried throughout the call. When asked about her debts, she said they were “all the bad ones”.The Anglicare financial counsellor arranged to meet Ruby in person to make a plan. It became clear that most of Ruby’s debts were with Buy Now Pay Later creditors. Ruby explained to her counsellor that she found these services easy to use when she was out shopping. She could take the item home straight away. She could split the costs into several payments. This made her think that her purchases wereRubyaffordable.opened five BNPL accounts and none of the providers checked with her to see if she could afford them. They offered her increases to her credit limits.When the repayments became too much, she took out some quick ‘payday’ loans to buy groceries for her family. Ruby’s counsellor took her through her options and together they designed a repayment plan and a new budget. Next steps “What happens after you make that first call is up to you,” Mat said.

“We can continue talking to you over the phone or we can arrange to meet you in person.

“I thought it was a great idea at the time, even though I was already under financial stress. I felt like I was on a hamster wheel and I couldn’t get off.” Financial counselling supported Lewis to make changes to his spending patterns and live within his means.

HOBART resident Lewis Taylor has surpassed his fundraising goal of $158,000 eight weeks after completing his final climb for the 158 Challenge.InJanuary Lewis set out with an ambitious goal of summiting all of Tasmania’s 158 abels (mountains higher than 1100m) in 158 days whilst raising critical funds for the Cancer Council Tasmania.“Itwasabsolutely incredible to hit my fundraising goal after two years of planning and executing,” Lewis said. “From those who donated a few dollars right through to those large business donations, I can’t thank you enough and in particular, I want to thank Rolls Cycles who came in at the end to see me past my target.” Cancer Council Tasmania CEO Penny Egan said the not-forprofit organisation relies on generous donations such as Lewis’ to be able to provide its program and“Lewisservices.has raised more than $165,000 – that is the most a community fundraiser has ever raised for us here in Tasmania,” Ms Egan said. “Last year we provided 6000 transports to treatment for people living with cancer and 7000 occasions of support to those impacted by cancer so receiving this kind of donation will go a long way in ensuring that we can continue to provide our programs and services.“Thank you to everyone who supported Lewis because in supporting Lewis you have supported many Tasmania’s impacted by cancer.”Donations for the 158 Challenge are open until the end of the month, via 158challenge.com

“This is very real issue in our community, and I hope this annual event helps to spread the word.“So come on down for a great game of footy and help us crack our $2,500 fundraising goal.”

He returned to the NBA in 2019 after signing with the Chicago Bulls, averaging 17.5 points, 5.8 assists, 4.1 rebounds, and 2 steals per game for the team’s G-League affiliate, the Windy City Bulls.

Kelly graduated from Wichita State University in Kansas in 2018, beginning his professional career with Russian club Parma before stints in Italy and Turkey.The26-year-old most recently played with JDA Dijon Basket in France’s LNB Pro A league, averaging 11.4 points, 6.4 rebounds and 2.2 assists per“I’mgame.excited about the program you guys have got here, and the things you’re trying to accomplish,” Kelly said. “I’ve been following the league for a while, since I became a professional. I’ve been intrigued by it and wanted to be part of the NBL, so when Tasmania gave me a shot I had to say ‘yes’ with no hesitation.”TheJackJumpers also recently added former South East Melbourne Phoenix player Tristan Forstyth as an earlyseason injury replacement for star centre Will Magnay, along with development players Josh Tomasi and Walter Brown.
