Council upgrades oval cafe New fencing has been installed at the Council’s cafe at Woy Woy Oval in an attempt to make it more attractive to potential lessees. The cafe has been vacant since the oval and grandstand was redeveloped by Council in 2016, despite Council efforts to tender its lease. A total of $46,000 will be spent on upgrades, which include the installation of an all-weather surface and children’s play area. Council unit manager Mr Phil Cantillon said: “Council has undertaken upgrades to Woy Woy oval cafe following recommendations from operators

St Luke’s Anglican Church has a new look

St Luke’s unveils new stained glass windows Woy Woy’s St Luke’s Anglican Church has unveiled its new stained glass windows. The 44 windows depict religious symbols and theological concepts and have been installed in blocks over the past two years. The final pieces were unveiled on July 6 during an opening ceremony conducted by Woy Woy Parish rector Father Michael Davies. The artist behind the windows project is Fr Michael’s wife Ms Alexandra Banks. She said it had been a labour of love, years in the making. A self-taught artist, Ms Banks is currently completing her PhD at St Francis Theological College and said it was hard to believe the project was finally complete. “It’s taken me a couple weeks to

get my head around the idea that it’s finished but it is and I couldn’t be happier,” she said. An innovator in the glass art field, Ms Banks said each panel she created for the project paid homage to the intricate techniques of celebrated Australian stained glass artist Leonard French. The windows had already attracted many compliments from the community and it’s hoped the new feature will, in time, become a new icon for Woy Woy. “There’s nothing like this anywhere else on the Central Coast and it’s been really encouraging to hear people talking about the art and the stories they represent,” Ms Banks said. The windows are designed to draw in light and will dazzle and refract even on the cloudiest of days.

to increase the lease potential of the site. “Council has committed funds to install fencing to enclose the area, and a children’s play area,” he said. “Fencing works have now been completed and the new play area will be undertaken later in the year. “On completion of the upgrades, Council will engage with an agent to secure a suitable tenant to run a commercially viable, sustainable and vibrant business that delivers economic and social benefits for the community,” he said.

They’ve also been given the tick of approval from the theological and arts community, with the first event held at the church since the windows were completed a national conference on art and theology hosted by Ms Banks. “The conference was a great success and the windows were a big hit with all guests,” she said. Ms Banks wished to extend her thanks to all those involved in the project from its implementation to the final installation. “Countless volunteers ensured this project was completed. “It could not have been done without them,” Ms Banks said.

Cane toad discovered at Woy Woy A cane toad has been discovered at Woy Woy, according to the minutes of a meeting of the Coastal Open Spaces System committee. The discovery was mentioned in minutes of the committee meeting on May 29. The minutes reported that Mr Jonathon Eccles from the Greater Sydney Local Land Services briefed the meeting on the cane toad discovery and said the

biosecurity team had been laying traps for their tadpoles. Last week, the Australian Reptile Park said a male cane toad had been surrendered to the park recently, found near a dam at Somersby. The park expressed concerns that more cane toads could soon be sighted on the Coast. Park general manager Mr Tim Faulkner said cane toads had caused major species decline in

Australia’s northern states and one being found at Somersby was extremely alarming. He urged residents to report any sightings of cane toads to the Office of Environment and Heritage.

Despite the sudden dry spell, the region is still on track to reach its traditional monthly rainfall total for July of 61mm. July is traditionally one of the driest months of the year for the region but worryingly so is August which means residents could be in for some ongoing drought like conditions.

Gosford CBD developments update

ust a year ago the Gosford skyline was full of the sight of cranes at work on a variety of major projects which were to kickstart the rejuvenation of the city centre.

Rotary club plans youth charity ball The Rotary Club of Umina Beach will hold its Central Coast Youth Charity Gala Ball at Gosford RSL on November 9.

Proceeds of the evening will go to the Top Blokes Foundation, a men and boys social, educational and mental health organisation. Outgoing Rotary club president Mr Paul Quinn said: “The Top Blokes Foundation supports over 400 young males on the Central Coast each year, through mentoring and social education programs across primary schools, high schools and in the wider community. “Young males who engage in

the program are improving their mental health and reducing their risk-taking behaviours. “On the Coast, the Top Blokes team are aiming to reach an additional 200 young males through their programs in 2020 and your attendance at the Ball will help us raise the funds they need to achieve this,” Mr Quinn said. Mr Quinn said he anticipated “a fun evening with fantastic food and wine and a band that is sure to keep you dancing all night long”. The club is currently seeking sponsors for the event.

But in recent months, many of the cranes have disappeared, as some projects have been completed while progress on several other key proposals has stagnated. The completion of the ATO, the finance building and Bonython Tower, at opposite ends of Mann St, were a promising start to the rejuvenation, but several major projects, including the Waterside and Mariner Plaza developments, seem to have come to a standstill. Raine and Horne Commercial, Central Coast, Sales Agent, Andrew Dunn, thinks the property market is “on its way back” following recent State and Federal elections. “We could potentially see more developments moving forward as the market recovers,” Dunn said. A major stumbling block for the larger projects, he said, could be attributed to changes to the “sunset clause” for “off the plan sales” made in recent years in NSW. The sunset clause is used when buyers purchase “off the plan”, as is common with many high rise residential developments and the clause sets a time by which a development must be completed. “Historically, either the buyer or the seller was entitled to withdraw from the property

sale if the development was not finished by that date,” Dunn said. “In the last Sydney property boom, some developers were holding back completion of projects so they could take the property back and sell it for a higher price. “To protect purchasers and the integrity of ‘off the plan sales’, the State Government made changes to the legislation. “Unfortunately, one of these protections was that the maximum sunset period be two years. “Many of these larger developments in Gosford can’t be completed in two years, so developers need to fund the project commencement without any pre-sales. “At present, the market depth and availability of project funding make this scenario far too risky for a developer to entertain,” Andrew Dunn said. But CKDS Architecture

Director, Caine King, said he hoped to see an increase in development applications as business confidence restores. “There was a bit of a stall in DAs following the amalgamation of Gosford and Wyong councils,” King said. “There wasn’t much confidence in the market of being able to get larger projects off the ground.” King said new State planning controls introduced in 2018 were helping to build confidence. “We have seen a little bit more interest since the State and Federal elections and we hope to see even more DAs lodged,” he said. “Everything we see being built now is from (approvals) five years ago or so. “We still need new developers coming in to keep the market flowing.” Central Coast Mayor, Jane Smith, said Council’s planned Cultural Precinct, to comprise

a regional library, performance centre and linking walkways on a block bounded by Mann and Donnison Sts, would be “an important project to stimulate activity” in the CBD. Confirmation of the exact site is expected later this year, once commercial negotiations have been completed. “The completion of the ATO building and others in the CBD have already made a difference, and hopefully, these things, combined with the Gosford Hospital expansion and a projected university campus, will bring in more people and stimulate local business,” Smith said. As far as stalled projects went, Smith said once Council had approved a DA, project timeframes were then a matter for the developer. “A lot of land banking has been a problem in the past,” she said. “Various developers would gain DA approval and then

either sit on the land or sell it.” Smith said new planning controls set by the State Government might not be “the right mix” for Gosford. The Government introduced its State Environmental Planning Policy (SEPP), covering Gosford CBD, in October, 2018. “I believe the government should have been more modest in its controls,” Smith said. “Just going higher is not necessarily viable. Prior to the government setting new planning controls, developers were already permitted to build to 20 storeys, she said. “Council’s role is not just to please developers but to create liveable spaces. “Massive towers need to be balanced by the correct infrastructure and open spaces.” Council is doing its bit to make the city development

ready. A spokesman said Council’s expansion and upgrade of the Gosford CBD water and sewage system was on track to be delivered over the next five years, involving upgrades to existing water and sewer infrastructure as well as new infrastructure in key areas across the CBD area. These include two new sewer pump stations, new connections to the President’s Hill reservoir zone and to the Gosford Hospital redevelopment, new lower pressure sewer systems to the Gosford Racecourse, and 7.7km of water mains and 6.4km of sewer mains. Council has also rolled out more than 260 parking sensors in the CBD, following on from the successful implementation of car parking sensors in The Haven and Surf Club at Terrigal in 2018. “The installation of sensors helps residents and visitors identify available parking through the ParkSpot (Central Coast NSW) app,” the spokesman said. “Using real time data, ParkSpot displays areas of available, restricted and unrestricted parking in the streets of the Gosford CBD. The sensors run between Donnison St and Erina St, and Baker St and Albany St North. We look at some of the key building sites in the CBD and their current state of development.

A conceptual plan of Wallarah 2 showing the longwalls where coal will be mined Northern District President of the Construction, Forestry, Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU), Peter Jordan, said the community had been waiting a long time for the jobs that would flow from this project. Wallarah 2 is an underground, longwall coal project approved to extract up to five million tonnes of export thermal coal a year from the Yarramalong and Dooralong Valleys,

which is the main water catchment area for the Central Coast. Majority owner Kores Australia, which manages the mine under the name Wyong Coal, is a subsidiary of Korea Resource Corporation. “The government has recognised the rigorous assessment process that the project had been through and the Wyong mine has ticked all the regulatory boxes and demonstrated it

Unemployment is significantly worse on the Peninsula than it is on the rest of the Central Coast, according to figures released by Member for Gosford Ms Liesl Tesch.

only be available along Patonga foreshore. The NSW Roads and Maritime Service is undertaking the work in partnership with Central Coast Council. SOURCE: Media release, 25 Jun 2019 Nathan Alexander, NSW RMS

And the Coast’s unemployment is worse than the State average. Ms Tesch said the unemployment rate for the Peninsula in 2016 was 8.0 per cent. The average for the Coast was 6.7 per cent, and the State average 6.3 per cent. This meant unemployment on the Peninsula was around 25 per cent worse than the State average and about 20 per cent worse than the Central Coast average.

would comply with the high standards required of NSW coal developments,” Jordan said. “As with any project, our focus will be on representing workers and making sure that the project delivers permanent, secure jobs.” The NSW Resources Regulator has estimated the $800m mine will create 1,700 direct and indirect jobs over its 28 year lifespan and will

bring $830m in royalties to the state. Central Coast Greens MLC and spokesperson for Mining, Coal and CSG, Abigail Boyd, “seriously questions” those employment figures. “Even Adani has admitted that its monstrous mine will result in a maximum of around 1,500 jobs, so how is Wallarah 2 going to create 1,700?” she said.

“As for royalties, it will be at least three years before a single tonne of coal is extracted from the project, and that’s assuming Kores satisfies the licence condition for the ground water study needed before it can start digging. “Given the freefall of thermal coal prices, and the move away from coal fired power

Peninsula Community action group Grow Urban Shade Trees has been campaigning for more tree planting along residential streets on the Peninsula and were consulted in the preparation of the strategy. The strategy proposes that the Council develop a series of plans such as a green grid plan

to promote and manage urban green spaces with a two for one replacement for every tree removed across the region. It aims to identify opportunities for community partnerships to fund and resource landscaping and streetscape improvement projects. It hopes to develop community and school programs and events to improve regional biodiversity and tree management, including backyard habitat and citizen science programs and support the establishment of native gardens on private lands. It also aims to reduce urban heat island effects and increase

The strategy was presented to councillors at a briefing on June 3 where answers were provided to questions about how damage to infrastructure would be avoided and whether it would reduce graffiti. As well as the Grow Urban Shade Trees group, the Trees of Bateau Bay group and Community Environment Network were also consulted. If approved, the strategy will go on public exhibition for 28 days.

n the latest development on the issue of the controversial landfill at Mangrove Mountain, Central Coast Council has commenced proceedings in the Land and Environment Court (LEC) against both the Environment Protection Authority (EPA) and site owners Verde Terra.

The Council will seek to have set aside variations to Environment Protection Licences granted by the EPA between 2003 and 2012 in relation to the landfill operations. Verda Terra has commenced its own proceedings in the Court, claiming it can conduct waste disposal to the landfill without the need to obtain

further development consent, other than for what it considers to be minor alterations. But Council claims that development consent granted by the former Gosford Council in 1998 for the remodelling of the existing golf course does not authorise the scale, location and nature of waste disposal and other landfill activities on the site. The matter has been the subject of protracted Development Application revisions and LEC proceedings over many years, with huge community concerns over the possible effect of the landfill operation on the Coast’s water supply. Mountains District Association has applauded the latest proceedings brought by Council to the LEC, but says they should be considered in the light of other actions

involving the landfill site currently before the Court. “In August, 2018, Verde Terra lodged an appeal against the EPA for the EPA’s refusal of Verde Terra’s application to have the environment protection licence (at the site) varied,” Association spokesman, Stephen Goodwin, said. “Council sought and was successful in being joined with the EPA as a party in this action (which is yet to be determined). “In late December, 2018, Verde Terra lodged a new DA with Council, which Council deemed a Designated Development requiring a new Environmental Impact Statement. “This resulted in Verde Terra commencing new legal proceedings (in April)

appealing the ‘deemed refusal’ of the DA and seeking relief from the requirement for any further development consent at Mangrove Mountain Landfill. “Complex doesn’t even start to describe this mess. “If Central Coast Council is successful in this new action against the EPA, then no licence, no landfilling. “That would please the community, knowing that the water catchment and the Central Coast water supply could at last be made safe from further importation of toxic waste material.” Goodwin said the Association had been calling on Council to challenge the validity of the 1998 development consent against the significantly expanded operations which have occurred since, for some years.

prioritised land use planning. Council’s draft plan aims to provide the framework for the coast’s growth and development over the next 20 years but it sits inside the directions of the NSW State Government’s Central Coast Regional Plan 2036 and council’s own Community Strategic Plan 2018. Its role is to provide a clear direction for strategic planning instruments “to deliver housing diversity, transport improvements, a protected natural environment, infrastructure upgrades, economic and social vitality desired by the community, without compromising the identity, quality and nature of Central Coast living”, according to the report to council. These directions include revitalising town centres, upgrading public spaces and creating new housing types and improving “movement” networks and to “transform neighbourhoods into inclusive, adaptable, resilient and smart hubs of growth”. The report to the councillors says: “The draft Plan will ensure that the Central Coast of tomorrow will grow into a World Class Region that is smart, green and liveable with a shared sense of belonging and responsibility. “Gosford Regional Centre will become a Living City Centre that acts as the Capital of the Central Coast, providing regional facilities and a positive local identity. “Our other Centres will thrive with more living and working opportunities, providing key services to surrounding communities. Importantly, our communities will be physically connected through appropriate infrastructure and socially connected through strong relationships and sense of unity.” The report states that Woy Woy peninsula has had a population growth of between 0.5 per cent to one per cent in the years 2011 to 2016 and the same percentage growth is forecast for the next 10 years.

Specifically, Umina’s priorities will be the creation of a civic area through enhancement of the useability of public space in the centre and providing safe public realm ensuring functionality for wide cross section of the community. “Key attractors” will be connected by maximizing opportunities for ecological and environmental sustainability including rainwater recycling, energy efficiency, and cycling. It will capitalize on amenity benefits by improving relationship between public and private spaces to the benefit of the public while fostering community ownership and approval as part of the renewal process and business community. Another priority will be creating opportunity for innovative development and design. Ettalong Beach has been designated a village with a range of 600 metres from the centre. Priorities identified in the draft are to support local business and retain the existing amenity. The built form is meant to be low to medium rise development with a focus on town houses and villa development. The vision in the draft is the first stage in developing council’s local strategic planning statement which it must deliver by July 2020 under State Government rules and which leads to a comprehensive local environment plan - and that’s the plan that sets development guidelines. As part of a separate process, character statements about places will be developed under a comprehensive review of the Central Coast Development Control Plan – another planning instrument. Council will identify actions required for achieving the planning priorities, as well as the basis on which it will monitor and report on the implementation of those actions.

Medium density plan for Woy Woy

Woy Woy is one of five strategic centres identified in a draft urban plan that may eventually lead to a new local environment plan, the guidelines used for the assessment of development applications. The town centres, with a radius of one kilometre, will “offer high amenity settings for medium density residential and maintain their distinctive characters” according to the draft plan which goes to council tonight (June 24). If passed by the councillors, the draft urban spatial plan will go on public exhibition for 60 days and council will undertake community workshops in each of eight planning precincts identified in the local strategic planning statement that is part of the plan. Woy Woy town centre is within one of those eight planning precincts. The entire peninsula is part of the one West Brisbane Water and Peninsula planning area. Priorities for Woy Woy town centre include adopting a strategic plan to support population growth that will not generate unsustainable traffic impacts, while protecting the scenic quality and character of the area. But it will also promote housing densities that will encourage socially diverse population and short stay accommodation “in a manner that does not impact connections and movement as well as limiting growth in environmental hazard areas”. Also, it wants to encourage revitalisation of Woy Woy through the development of a “cohesive domain approach strategy that supports a pleasant and safe town centre with housing, jobs, services, community facilities and entertainment for residents and visitors”. Umina will be a town centre, providing low to mid-rise living with some medium density housing

Club CEO, Andrew Smith, said: “We’ve been here for 47 years, operating in harmony with the community …. and I think Council is using underhanded tactics to close the airport. “There is a distinct lack of transparency since this Council was elected in 2017. “We have not been involved in any decisions and they won’t talk to us,” he said. “And they’ve snuck this latest motion through,” he said, “just another anti-airport motion put to Council which has been enabled by the Mayor and Labor councillors.” Councillor Louise Greenaway’s Motion to the July 8 meeting called for replanting of a previously cleared section, and that there be no mowing, slashing or trimming of vegetation around the landing strip. Smith says that as the vegetation grows, it will result in the loss of a third of the usable runway. “I think it’s an underhanded tactic to close the airport by making it unusable and eventually it will have to close. “Councillor Greenaway openly ran for Council election on a ticket of

He said the Aero Club’s licence agreement with Council expires in August, 2021. “We were promised by the Mayor, via email, to have discussions by July/August last year, but repeated requests for that to happen have fallen on deaf ears,” he said. “The Mayor has made it quite clear she wants to protect the wetlands.

New fencing has been installed at the Council’s cafe at Woy Woy Oval in an attempt to make it more attractive to potential lessees. The cafe has been vacant since the oval and grandstand was redeveloped by Council in 2016, despite Council efforts to tender its lease. A total of $46,000 will be spent on upgrades, which include the installation of an all-weather surface and children’s play area.

St Luke’s Anglican Church has a new look

St Luke’s unveils new stained glass windows Woy Woy’s St Luke’s Anglican Church has unveiled its new stained glass windows. The 44 windows depict religious symbols and theological concepts and have been installed in blocks over the past two years. The final pieces were unveiled on July 6 during an opening ceremony conducted by Woy Woy Parish rector Father Michael Davies. The artist behind the windows Ms Alexandra Banks said the project had been a labour of love, years in the making. A self-taught artist, Ms Banks is currently completing her PhD at St Francis Theological College and said it was hard to believe the project was finally complete. “It’s taken me a couple weeks to get my head around the idea that

it’s finished but it is and I couldn’t be happier,” she said. An innovator in the glass art field, Ms Banks said each panel she created for the project paid homage to the intricate techniques of celebrated Australian stained glass artist Leonard French. The windows had already attracted many compliments from the community and it’s hoped the new feature will, in time, become a new icon for Woy Woy. “There’s nothing like this anywhere else on the Central Coast and it’s been really encouraging to hear people talking about the art and the stories they represent,” Ms Banks said. The windows are designed to draw in light and will dazzle and refract even on the cloudiest of days.

Bushcare group seeks more volunteers

The Bays Bushcare Group is seeking volunteers.

The group meets on the second Sunday of the month and is currently working to restore bushland around the bay side of Raymond Rd and Phegans Bay Rd. The group also monitors wildlife in the area and a number of night vision cameras have been set up to observe native wildlife. More volunteers are wanted in the lead-up to summer.

It is hoped that enough volunteers will register their interest to extend the group’s projects to other parts of The Bays. The group is run by Central Coast Council with the support of The Bays Community Group. Anyone interested in joining the group is encouraged to contact Council Landcare Officer Mr Ben Feltham on 4350 5106.

Homeless people moved from Austin Butler oval A group of homeless people that had been living on the grounds of Austin Butler Oval at Woy Woy were made to leave the site on July 8 by Central Coast Council rangers and Brisbane Water Police. It is understood they were offered emergency accommodation. The group had formed a steadily growing tent community on the site since January. During this time, the oval’s primary users Woy Woy Football Club, had been negotiating with Council to have them removed. According to Club Committee member Mr Matt Brien, the group’s presence had created a health and safety issue for users of the oval. He said the club had lost significant numbers of junior members as a result. “It is disgraceful that Council allowed this to go on for seven months,” Mr Brien said. “This would never be allowed to happen at The Haven Oval in Terrigal or Adcock Park but because this is Woy Woy Council just turned a blind eye,” Mr Brien said. Mr Brien said the Committee was thankful that action had finally been taken but expressed his disappointment that it took threats of going to the media to seemingly spark Council into action. “Our membership is shot, our

reputations tarnished and we don’t know what our junior numbers will be like next year, so we definitely haven’t ruled out asking for changes to our lease or for a reduction in the cost owing on our new club facilities,” Mr Brien said. “We want assurance from Council that something like this will never be allowed to happen again,” he said. “We want Council to take responsibility for their part in this mess and we want them to be accountable. “They went into this not wanting to be the bad guy. “They didn’t want to be seen as the Council kicking out the homeless, but the bottom line is this just wasn’t safe and had something happened the blood

would have been on Council’s hands,” Mr Brien said. Mr Brien said during the seven months the group was at the oval the Committee had approached Member for Robertson Ms Lucy Wicks, Member for Gosford Ms Liesl Tesch and Cr Chris Holstein for assistance. Only Ms Wicks responded to Peninsula News’ request for comment but it is understood that Ms Tesch and Cr Holstein are on leave. She confirmed she had been approached by the Committee regarding the group but said in both instances the committee was informed that this was a matter for Council. Ms Wicks said she did raise the issue with Council staff

and advocate on behalf of the community. Ms Wicks said the issue of homelessness on the Central Coast was very serious and that she was committed to continuing to work to achieve positive outcomes for the community. “The issue of homelessness is an important and complex one, particularly here on the Central Coast. “Housing and access to safe accommodation is fundamental to the welfare of all Australians. “While the delivery of services falls under the NSW Government’s responsibility this really is an issue that all levels of government need to work together on, alongside the community and I am committed to continuing to do so,” Ms Wicks

said. Coast Shelter chief executive Ms Rachel Willis confirmed the complexity of the situation. Ms Willis said Coast Shelter was aware of the individuals at the oval and said that staff from the organisation’s Coimba Men’s Refuge had visited them with Council Rangers on two occasions to provide information about relevant services prior to their expulsion from the site. Ms Willis said Coast Shelter has assisted rough sleepers and will continue to help them where possible, but assertive outreach like this was not something Coast Shelter were funded to provide. “Providing interventions to rough sleepers is an extremely complex task. “Coast Shelter provides assistance where possible, however successful outcomes depend on the coordinated effort from various services and departments who can provide intensive wrap around supports,” Ms Willis said. Council was also approached for comment.

Fate of funding to be decided by popular vote The fate of 17 applications for funding from the My Community Project in the Gosford electorate will be decided by popular vote. Of those, six are for the Peninsula: Woy Woy Peninsula Community Garden, Umina Surf Life Saving Club, Mingaletta Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Corporation, The Runway Park, Pearl Beach Memorial Hall and Pearl Beach Community Support Centre. Local residents will be able to read through nominated projects and then vote on which ones they would like to see funded. Voting opened on July 15 and is done through the My Community Project website. Anyone looking to vote will need an up to date Medicare Card and My Service NSW account. Voting closes on August 15 with the successful projects set to be announced in September. Woy Woy Peninsula Community Garden has applied for $79,261 for its Phoenix Rising Project. This project was nominated by The Peninsula Environment Group volunteers that run the garden. The project aims to develop a new and improved community infrastructure blending into the residential area, enhancing facilities and storage at the community garden after arson attacks destroyed many resources. The infrastructure will be

a secure purpose designed building for storing equipment and resources, giving more flexibility for volunteers to access garden equipment. Umina Surf Life Saving Club has asked for a new patrol tractor costing $22,500. The Surf Club had to retire its previous tractor and now requires a new one for the next beach patrol season. The purchase of a new tractor would allow surf club members to provide a safe means to transport their equipment which they use in their daily patrols at the beach over the annual beach season. “A tractor is one of the most valuable items of equipment playing a major role in the safety and wellbeing of members and community providing us the ability to deliver key lifesaving services

and functions effectively and efficiently,” said club president Mr Stephen Scahill. Mingaletta Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Corporation has asked for $67,209 for a Community Transport Van The staff wish to add community transport to their services to the Peninsula’s indigenous community. Mingaletta chairperson Auntie Dianne O’Brien said having a van would allow Mingaletta to provide access to distant health services for its patrons, transport to community and Mingaletta run events and allow staff and volunteers to initiate an outreach service. The Umina Community Group has asked for $30,000 for a new shade structure for The Runway Park in Trafalgar Ave. “Our project will aim to increase patronage of the park through all

the seasons providing shelter from the heat of the day,” said Umina Community Group member Mr Tony Winch. “Youngsters will receive the health benefits of regular exercise, a safe play space under shade reducing the risk of exposure to harsh ultraviolet rays. “The local community will benefit from the enjoyment of extra play time for our young children and families.” The Pearl Beach Progress Association has asked for $105,000 for Pearl Beach Memorial Hall upgrades. The hall is extensively used for cultural and community activities including concerts, literary lunches, Anzac Day events, public meetings, yoga and other health programs. By covering and extending the existing rear deck, an additional usable area will become available to enable more community activities to take place and meet the growing demand for such activities. The project will commence in October 2019 and is estimated to take five months to complete. Pearl Beach Safety Advisory Committee has asked for $26,830 for the Pearl Beach Community Support Centre This project will support the set up of costs of the Centre. The Pearl Beach Safety Advisory Committee has a volunteer structure in place,

ensuring communications with external NSW Emergency Services in the event of emergency. Establishing a Centre will enable Committee volunteers to assist the community with first aid and act as a meeting point in the event of disaster. The Umina Beach Surf Club has also also asked for $200,000 to make a wide multi-use pathway that connects Ocean Beach Rd to the Peninsula Recreational Precinct and caravan park access road. “By connecting existing areas together with safe and wide pathways, it encourages our community to be active and enjoy Umina Beach,” said Surf Club president Mr Stephen Scahill. “This section will join two popular walks together to help create longer more interesting walks and rides. “It will also allow the large number of visitors to the caravan park a walking path and bike track to explore the local area. “As the project includes the construction of a path around the Club’s adjacent carpark, using the existing curb area, the design and build will be completed by Central Coast Council.” SOURCE: Media release, 15 Jul 2019 Ben Sheath, Office of Adam Crouch MP Website, 18 Jul 2019 Gosford Electorate, My Community Project Program 2019

Avenue of trees prevented by ‘infrastructure’ Underground infrastructure has cruelled the ability for the Grow Urban Street Tree group to fulfil the desire of 29 residents in Ocean Beach Rd, Umina to grow an avenue of trees. The residents from the southern end of Ocean Beach Rd, Umina, signed up to care for a street tree when tree group members went door knocking. But, upon inspection by Central Coast Council engineers, the

southern section of the road was found to have underground infrastructure restraints. Nevertheless, six advanced native trees will be planted at 506 Ocean Beach Road, Umina Beach at 9.30am on National Tree Day, Sunday, July 28, by the tree group and the Umina Community Group. “This is a small community event not requiring volunteers but observers are welcome,’’ tree group member Ms Debbie Sunartha said. “It’s not going to give us an

avenue of trees. “Our second event is going to give us a bit more of an avenue but it is a very long street and we are going to need a lot more trees. “This event will require several volunteers. “We are holding a Creating Showcase Streets for Urban Shade on Sunday, August 11, in Springwood St, Ettalong. “We will be planting 11 advanced trees, starting at 52 Kourung St, on the corner of Springwood St at 9.30am.

“This is a community event requiring volunteers. “There will be some heavy lifting, digging, post hammering as well as watering and mulching,’’ she said. Member for Gosford Ms Liesl Tesch and Cr Richard Mehrtens will be attending. Another tree group member Ms Mell Chandler said these National Tree Day projects were the only registered National Tree activities for the southern wards of the Central Coast for the third year

runningt. “Despite Ettalong, Booker Bay and Woy Woy being identified as three of the Coast’s most heataffected suburbs, we’re still not seeing Central Coast Council getting on board with National Tree Day,’’ she said. “Hornsby Shire Council, Northern Beaches Council and Lake Macquarie Council are all holding events.” SOURCE: Media release, 15 Jul 2019 Debbie Sunartha, GUST

Group home approved to disability support A five-bedroom group home costing $1.08 million at 17 Osborne Ave, Umina Beach, has been approved under delegation by Central Coast Council. Neighbour consultation was undertaken with residents of adjoining and surrounding properties. The applicant, BlueCHP Ltd, door-knocked the neighbouring residential properties and discussed with neighbours the key components of what a permanent

group home was and how it would function and interact within the community. The application to council said neighbours were also advised of the upcoming submission of the development application and that a letter and notification plans would be issued by council in coming weeks. “The majority of neighbours appeared to support the proposed development and any queries were either answered during the door knock or via follow up queries with the contact details made available

by the fact sheet,’’ the report said. The proposed permanent group home at Umina Beach is one of 78 new purpose-built specialist disability homes that will be built in the Hunter region by Home4Life. Home4Life is a new disability housing organisation established between two non-profit housing providers: Newcastle based Compass Housing and BlueCHP. Group homes provide up to 24 hours of support seven days a week. The group home will be a typical suburban house with five

bedrooms. The group homes are staffed by disability workers and support people with a disability who are unable to live independently or with their family, even with support. An arboricultural impact assessment identified 11 trees within the subject site and eight trees will be removed to allow for the proposed new building works. The group home will be designed specifically for the proposed use and to facilitate safe, equitable and dignified access for people who have a disability.

Archaic system results in pollution, says ACF branch The stormwater system on the Peninsula is archaic and it is not surprising that pollution is found at outfalls on local beaches, according to the Central Coast branch of the Australian Conservation Foundation. The comments came after a visitor to the area photographed an oil-like substance flowing onto Ettalong Beach from a storm water drain east of Bangalow St. Branch president Mr Mark Ellis said the stormwater system flowed directly into Brisbane Water and onto the beaches such as Ettalong and Umina and Terrigal. It was an ongoing issue of pollution coming directly off the streets, he said. The visitor told Peninsula News the foul matter smelt like oil but didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t float like oil. He said it was hard to tell there had been pollution about three hours after he first spotted the flow. It had dissipated in the water. Mr Ellis said the branch had previously raised the issue with this council and the previous Gosford and Wyong councils. The branch had suggested storm water should be harvested

to stop pollution flowing directly into the waterways but had been told it was too expensive. Mr Ellis said storm water was free water that simply needed to be repumped into the system but the council had said it was too expensive because they would have to take the pollutants out of it. He said that, whether or not the water was reused, the council had a responsibility to remove pollutants from stormwater to protect the environment. Every day of the week the NSW department of Environment sends out an email forecasting beach pollution at the Coastâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 29 beaches. It warns against swimming at some beaches after rain because of the presence of several potential sources of fecal contamination. These beaches include Pearl Beach, Umina Beach and Ocean Beach. The website says swimming at beaches should be avoided for up to one day after heavy rain or for as long as storm water is present.

Manufactured home proposal for IOOF homes site The owner of a large Umina aged care facility has applied to build a manufactured home estate on the former IOOF homes site in Springwood St, Umina. Peninsula Villages Ltd wants to place 16 prefabricated seniors living homes on the site it now owns at 147-149 Springwood St, Umina Beach. An existing community hall on the site would be converted into two more homes. Estimated cost of works is $1.8m. A development application was lodged with Central Coast Council on June 21 and released for public comment between July 4 and July 25. The Independent Order of Odd Fellows Friendly Society previously owned and managed the 13 existing small dwellings to accommodate people with disabilities and people on low incomes. Three tenants with life-long leases will remain as part of the new proposal. The new homes would be sited between the 13 existing homes. In 2010, council refused a development application which proposed to demolish 16 buildings and build 20 new ones. The main reason for refusal at

the time, according to the applicant of this new development, was due to the social impacts associated with displacing the existing tenants. “This application differs as it maintains the existing rental agreements as well as the life tenant’s tenure,’’ the statement of environmental effects stated. The site is located near the Ettalong Bowling Club and has a new footpath to the bus stop that has a regular service to and from Woy Woy town centre located directly at the front of the site. A new medium density six-unit development is under construction adjoining the site on the south eastern corner of Springwood and Palm Sts. In a statement as part of the development application, Peninsula Village chief executive Mr Shane Neaves said the property was bought in 2016. “The project will see the village continue to support the current clients and the opportunity to provide future affordable accommodation to others in need,” he said. “The development is unique in some ways as there will be a mixture of existing and new dwellings for affordable living hence fulfilling our purpose in providing a much needed social fabric in the way of accommodation to our older locals.”

The dwellings have been designed by Motion Group Pty Ltd which has its factory based in Woy Woy. The prefabricated dwellings would be located between the existing small scale homes that have accommodated affordable housing since World War 2. The homes would cater for older “cohorts” wishing to downsize or reside in smaller affordable dwellings and wanting to live independently within a selfcontained home that catered for less ambulant people. It will include onsite parking and level access with private open spaces to allow passive recreation within each site. The proposal is on public exhibition until tomorrow, July 25. Comments received so far have questioned the look of “prefab” housing and whether it would really house seniors. Another notes that three trees would be removed and wanted council to ensure a two for one replacement was undertaken. “The inclusion of safe canopyproviding trees are extremely important for senior housing. Trees reduce air conditioning costs and improve mobility and mental health,’’ the submission said. SOURCE: DA Tracker, 16 Jul 2019 DA 56718, Central Coast Council

Short-term accommodation proposal Public submissions close on July 25 on a proposal for 36 Pretty Beach Rd, Pretty Beach, to be used as short-term residential accommodation. Central Coast Council has notified the public that anyone can inspect and comment on the application at its offices at Gosford or Wyong or on line. The applicant Highlight Consulting said the proposal would not significantly increase existing traffic.

A bushfire assessment report stated the property was a corner allotment containing an existing dwelling which was surrounded by managed lawns and landscaped gardens. The allotment fell within a bushfire prone area as deemed by Central Coast Council. The report recommended a bushfire evacuation plan should be established and made available to all visitors and residents. Wagstaffe-Killcare Community Association president Mr Mike

Allsop said about 20 per cent of houses in the association area were holiday lettings and, in the main, they operated in a low key way and they hadn’t been an issue. He said it was a concern for nearby residents if there was an issue or if a property got a reputation for being a party house but the overall experience was positive with most well managed.

Three-storey units to include affordable housing Public comment has opened on a proposal to build a three-storey building with 12 units, including affordable housing, at the corner of Waratah St and Ocean Beach Rd, Woy Woy. The applicant, community housing provider Pacific Link Housing Ltd, lodged the development application with Central Coast Council on July 3 and the public has until August 1 to comment. Estimated to cost $3.2 million, the 12 dwellings comprise nine one-bedroom and three twobedroom dwellings, each with their own private open space and car parking. The Statement of Environmental Effects by Barker, Ryan, Stewart states that the proposal is generally compliant with relevant State and the various Central Coast Council planning instruments. The detail shows the design varies from guidelines in rear boundary setback and exterior wall setbacks. The design statement to council states that the setbacks are adhered to towards the west and south but towards the north the development would encroach towards the hardstand commercial parking area. Towards the east the balconies would encroach over the setback lines “and helps to articulate the facade”. Ten of the 12 units, or more than 80 per cent, meet the minimum daily requirement for sunlight and this is better than the guidelines which say 70 per cent must meet

the minimum daily requirement. A communal open space is not provided. The guidelines say buildings with more than 10 units should have a communal open space. The application says due to the narrowness of the block, private open space has been provided. It says it would use 45degree angles and off set windows to ensure privacy between units as well as obscure glazing and screening to increase visual privacy between units. A total of 13 car spaces are to be provided, with access via Ocean Beach Rd. The units would be a mix of privately-owned dwellings, and affordable rental housing and social rental housing managed by Pacific Link Housing. A pre-lodgement meeting was held at Council to discuss the proposed development on 23rd April 2019. The application states that the proposed development is a direct response to the Affordable Housing Strategy which was authorised for finalisation by Council on April 29. The strategy is designed to address affordable housing by providing more housing choice for households earning less than $100,000 per year. Central Coast Council had committed to delivering this strategy, as more than 60 per cent of Coast households earn less than $2000 per week and are at risk of experiencing housing stress within the current market, the report said.

Residents welcome withdrawal of six-storey application Community group Residents for Responsible Ettalong Development has welcomed the withdrawal of a development application for a six-storey building at 227231 Ocean View Rd has been withdrawn. The developer withdrew his application on Monday, July 15. “RRED is confident that the support from our wonderful community on the Peninsula, and others around Australia, has contributed to that decision,” said spokesman Mr Peter Gillis. Nearly 700 people signed petitions and filed objections with Central Coast Council about the proposal. Mr Gillis said there was a growing community awareness and involvement in local developments, and residents would like to see developers proposing projects that would reflect and enhance the seaside tourist character of Ettalong Beach. “Central Coast Council is responding to community concerns, as evidenced by their

recent approval of the Greener Places Strategy, which was informed by consultation with several community groups, including the Peninsula group GUST, Grow Urban Shade Trees. “We believe Council is now aware of residents’ increasing concerns at non-compliant development, and are willing to consult on a way forward to ensure the Peninsula grows to enhance our environment and opportunities,’’ Mr Gillis said. He said three of the Peninsula residents’ groups, including the Ettalong group, were meeting with Central Coast Council’s Director of Environment and Planning in the coming weeks. “We look forward to this as an opportunity to discuss the new draft regulations in Local Environment Plan 2018, get further understanding of council development application processing, and gain a perspective on achieving community goals in consultation with the Central Coast Council,’’ he said.

of a new covered timber decking entertainment area, timber seating and planter and new open timber decking area, new timber ramp and new timber stairs. Inside, the plan is to remove the existing sports office and entry door to accommodate new bar, cafe and preparation areas and then to construct a new entry door.

Celebrating 96 years Harry Potter style A Woy Woy resident has celebrated her 96th birthday with a Harry Potter party. Ms Olive Buckley celebrated her 96th birthday on July 13 with more than 70 relatives at Umina Surf Club with a lunch before continuing the party at Ettalong Diggers. Party organiser was Ms Buckley’s granddaughter Selena Courtness. She said Ms Buckley became enamoured with the Harry Potter novels after one of her children suggest she read the first book in the series. Ms Buckley’s relatives all attended the celebration dressed as characters from the series with the party at Ettalong Diggers also doubling as a fun day of Harry

Potter trivia for the extended family. Ms Buckley’s great granddaughter Ms Odette Courtness said the occasion was a fitting way to celebrate the life of her great grandmother. “We all enjoyed celebrating with great grandma and I can’t quite believe she read the books at such a grand age. “She has a lot of great grandchildren and we all thought she looked fabulous dressed as Professor McGonagall,” she said. Ms Buckley was also treated to a surprise performance from Olive’s Orchestra a band made up of her grandchildren and great grandchildren. For the occasion, they performed songs from the mid1900s.

Pearl Beach hall may get a facelift The Pearl Beach Progress Association community hall may get a facelift with the rear timber deck to be extended and a new steel roof added to part of it.

Umina workshop for skate strategy Central Coast Council is encouraging Peninsula residents to attend a workshop in Umina to help develop a Central Coast Skate Strategy.

Mayor Cr Jane Smith said that the community would benefit from skate facilities, not just the riders. “In addition to promoting healthy and active lifestyles, skateparks also activate and connect outdoor spaces and provide a safe purpose-built environment for riders,” she said “Skateparks also provide a boost to tourism as an attraction

and through the hosting of regional and national skate events. “I encourage the community to have a say to ensure we develop a skate strategy that meets the needs of our community now and into the future,” she said. The Umina workshop will take place from 6pm to 8pm at the Umina Surf Life Saving Club on July 31. As well as the workshop, residents are also being encouraged to take an online survey and to participate in an online forum, both of which are available on the Your Voice Our

Coast website until August 9. The strategy is expected to inform future development, upgrade and maintenance of council skate facilities, including at Umina. A specialist consultant will develop the “evidence-based skate strategy”, incorporating investigation and analysis of existing skateparks, current trends, demographic data, existing and related strategies and the feedback and opinions gathered from community and stakeholders.

A small chair storeroom will be added to the rear of the hall. Association president Mr Peter Romey has submitted a development application to Central Coast Council, with a heritage impact assessment for the proposed alterations and additions prepared by Ms Mary Knaggs, director of Romey Knaggs Heritage Pty Ltd. Public notification and advertising about the proposal closed on July 18. The hall at 9 Diamond Rd, Pearl Beach, is listed as a heritage item. It was built when members of the association, established in 1929, raised funds to buy a vacant block of land in 1943 to construct a community hall. The heritage impact assessment to council said construction was delayed by a shortage of both funds and materials as a result of World War 2, but commenced in early 1949 using a combination of voluntary and paid labour, supervised by local builder Cliff Mazlin. “Although the hall was not officially opened until September 1950, it hosted its first function in 1949 while still unfinished,’’ Ms Knaggs wrote.

“The hall has been upgraded and enlarged several times since1950 to accommodate larger gatherings and functions, especially dances. “It was extended to the rear to almost double its size in 1957, and in the 1990s the kitchen was refurbished and the rear deck was added. “Today, the hall continues to be the heart of the Pearl Beach community. “The hall is used by community groups, association meetings and other events, musical recitals, yoga, pilates, Anzac Day ceremonies, book fairs, film nights, art and craft workshops and shows and preschool play groups.” The proposed works will enlarge the back terrace and build new wider steps to improve connectivity to the rear garden. It will include a new covered timber walkway and steps from a new door on the southern elevation, replacing existing timber steps and creating an alternative access route from the hall to the terrace. The new materials will generally match those existing on site which is appropriate for a heritage item with existing timber handrails steps and screens to be re-used. The work is estimated to cost $50,000 if approved by council. SOURCE DA Tracker, 16 Jul 2019 DA 56717, Central Coast Council

One Central Coast - Changes to Water Billing We are aligning the former Wyong and Gosford Local Government Area (LGA) water bills so they are consistent across the Central Coast. If you live in the former Gosford LGA, you will now receive your water bills quarterly instead of bi-annually and your stormwater drainage charges will now appear on your water bill instead of your rates bill, in line with what is already in place in the former Wyong LGA. This means:  Water charges will be spread over four bills instead of two  Bills will be more manageable, easing ﬁnancial pressure  Residents and customers can budget better  Leaks can be more readily identiﬁed

Geoff Melville dies aged 77 Community leader Mr Geoff Melville has died at the age of 77. He is being remembered by many community groups for his long involvement and action. Mr Melville owned his own real estate business in Empire Bay for decades before selling it to the Domain Property Group about three years ago. He continued to work for the agency and had his last sale in May. Mr Melville was a member of Umina Rotary for 40 years. He had held every position on the board of the club and was president in 1984-1985 and in 2014-2015. He received an unprecedented four Paul Harris Fellowship Awards being the highest awards ever granted at Umina Rotary. In 2017 Geoff received the “Rotary International Avenues of Service Citation” for individual Rotarians, awarded by Rotary worldwide in recognition of his outstanding Rotary service. Until his death, Geoff was chair of Umina Rotary public relations committee and editor of the club’s weekly bulletin, known as Torque. Each week he produced a Bulletin of 24 pages of Rotary and local information plus an array of interesting and topical stories that was distributed to club members, other Rotary clubs, past Rotary exchange students and members of the local community. He was active in fundraising for various local and international projects of the club. He was patron and past

president of Empire Bay School. He was a past president of the Empire Bay Progress Association and he organised many local functions, including the local Anzac Day celebrations. Current president Ms Carolen Barripp said: “He was an amazing man – a voice for our community.” Ms Barripp had interviewed Mr Melville for a recent Empire Bay and District News. He told her: “There is nothing left on the shelf – I’ve had a great life.” When asked what he wanted to say to the community he told her: “Thanks for having me.” His work in the Empire Bay community was recognised by the State Government earlier this year when he received a 2019 NSW Seniors Local Achievement Award. Mr Melville was a district council member for St Pauls Anglican Church and a member of Empire Bay Probus Club. He served as an honorary director of Peninsula Villages for 16 years. As chair of the building committee, he was involved in the acquisition of a number of properties and survived long enough to see the new building start to emerge between Lone Pine Ave and Pozieres Ave in Umina that will provide additional aged care accommodation and facilities. Peninsula Villages chief executive Mr Shane Neaves said, “In the 15 years Geoff has been involved at Peninsula Villages, he has added great knowledge and that much needed community advocate and input to our Board

meetings.’’ Mr Melville had chaired the village’s building committee, which had recently awarded a contract to the value of $30 million to build an aged care facility of 114 beds. He was a member of the Peninsula Village’s care governance committee which oversees clinical and risk issues. And Mr Melville’s professional knowledge of the real estate market had allowed the village to strategically purchase properties which had enhanced its landholding, to assist in the growth of the organisation. “Geoff was the driving force behind the Rod Radford memorial at Ettalong Beach, which was to recognise Rod’s significant contributions to the local residents via his pharmacy service, but also as a fellow Rotarian committed to their local community,’’ Mr Neaves said. Brisbane Water Secondary College and other local schools received support from Mr Melville over many years. He died on July 6, aged 77. He is survived by his sons Andrew and Luke and daughter Felicity and their families. His wife Jacqui had died a few years ago from motor neurone disease.

Bowlers name scoreboard after John Greenway The Pearl Beach Bowlers have paid tribute to their fellow bowler, Mr John Greenway, who died earlier this year after a tragic cycling accident.

The bowlers gathered on July 12 to unveil a scoreboard Mr Greenway had created prior to his death. It has been named the John

Greenway Scoreboard in his memory. “John was a keen sportsman, an enthusiastic bowler, a great team player and skilled wood designer and craftsman who could put his hand to making just about anything,” said Pearl Beach bowler Mr Robert Lillico. The scoreboard is located at the Pearl Beach Tennis and Recreation Club and will be used

for both men’s and women’s bowls. Ms Marijke Greenway, Mr Greenway’s wife of 51 years, was present for the unveiling. Following the unveiling, those in attendance held a commemorative lunch and reflected on Mr Greenway’s life.

Emergency services received reports at around 7:30pm on July 7 that the group had not been seen or heard from in some time and concerns were held for their safety. A search and rescue operation commenced between Marine Area Command NSW and local emergency services, including the

Central Coast Volunteer Rescue Squad. Squad president Mr Joel Dawes said rescue crews spent around three hours searching for the group who were located uninjured around 10:30pm. The group was then escorted by rescuers to Patonga Wharf. SOURCE: Social media, 7 Jul 2019 Joel Dawes, Central Coast Rescue Squad

A course for women by women A eight-week course run by women to empower women will begin on July 31 at the Peninsula Community Centre. Member for Gosford Ms Liesl Tesch is encouraging local women to get involved. “I encourage all our local women, both young and old, to participate in the Women Empowering Women course to not only benefit yourself, but to also give back to the wider community. “The course is directly responding to what women need in our area with the 2016 Australian Bureau of Statistics finding a 14 per cent rise in domestic violence on the Central Coast. “We need to start the cycle of empowered women empowering women to make a difference in our community,” Ms Tesch said. The course outcomes include conflict resolution, values, beliefs, complex issues, resilience, selfesteem, diversity and stereotyping

communication and goals setting. Women Empowering Women will run from 9:30am to 2pm every Wednesday from July 31 until September 18 and is government subsidised. Ms Tesch said the course would allow for diverse voices to be heard in the community. “NSW Labor celebrates voices that have historically not been heard with 50 per cent of our Shadow Ministers now being women.” “We need to encourage more female voices and this course will enable inspiring women to have a louder voice in local and wider issues,” she said. An information session regarding course content will be held from 10am on July 24 at the Peninsula Community Centre for interested women.

New Rotary club starts on the Peninsula A new Rotary club has been formed on the Peninsula. With the philosophy of “come when you can, do what you can”, the Rotary Club of Brisbane Water is aimed at people from all walks of life and ages, who may have struggled to juggle the formalities of more traditional Rotary clubs with a hectic schedule. The club was formed by long-time Woy Woy Rotary Club members Mr and Mrs Peter and Jayne Mote and Ms Paola Liverani. Mr Mote is president of the new club and said he and the other founding members had been eager to bring a more relaxed style of Rotary to the Peninsula for some time. Attracting around 25 interested people from a range of backgrounds, the club got the tick from Rotary International and commenced operating at the beginning of July. “The club will appeal to people who want to join the Rotary family but have always thought it may be too much of a commitment, financially and time wise,” Mr Mote said. “Rotary is no longer just about dinner meetings of professional men and women. “It is for anyone who wants to make a difference in their community or with some of Rotary’s international projects. “It is also about meeting likeminded people and having fun,” he said. The club will meet semi-regularly at Ettalong Diggers. “Members can choose to attend either the morning meetings or evening, or both, to allow for people’s different circumstances, twice a month,” Mr Mote said. “The emphasis will be on doing Rotary in a different way, with members contributing in any way they are able to, but the Rotary commitment to helping local and overseas communities is still the guiding light of the Brisbane Water Club,” Mr Mote said. The club already has rallied behind local charity Coast Shelter to collect toiletries and donations for the

charity. The club is actively looking for new members and welcomes everyone of all ages and walks of life to get in touch. The Peninsula’s two existing Rotary Clubs have welcomed the announcement that a third club has launched at Ettalong. Both the Rotary Clubs of Umina

Beach and Woy Woy have welcomed the news that the Rotary Club of Brisbane Water is now active. Woy Woy Club president Mr Don Tee and Umina Beach Club secretary Mr Michael Curley both agreed the new club was a boon to Rotary. “Umina Beach Rotarians have no problem whatsoever with the formation of this new club,” said Mr

Curley. “In fact, we welcome it, as any increase in Rotary membership on any Peninsula Club means an increase in engagement with the Rotary movement in the area which is a good thing.” Mr Tee agreed. Rotary membership has been in decline on the Peninsula in recent years with both existing clubs actively seeking new members and doing their best to engage more with young people in an effort to see the movement grow. Both Mr Tee and Mr Curley acknowledged that they could see why a more casual approach to Rotary might appeal to some people but did say the new club was not operating too differently from either of theirs. “As far as I’m aware, the only thing Brisbane Water Rotary Club does differently than Woy Woy or Umina Beach is meet fortnightly instead of

weekly. “All Rotary Clubs have taken on a more project-focused approach as of late,” Mr Curley said. Mr Tee said, while it was encouraging to see Rotary growth on the Peninsula, it did come at the expense of his club, with some members opting to join Brisbane Water Rotary Club. “Rest assured. “We still have 35 active members and will be continuing with our community work,” Mr Tee said. Mr Curley said no members of Umina Beach Rotary Club had joined the Brisbane Water Club.

Beds ‘important’ for sporting and ageing populations The owners of a new mattress and bedding business in Woy Woy have said people forget how important the right bed is.

Support program for domestic violence survivors A new eight-week women’s support program for domestic violence survivors will be held at the Peninsula Women’s Health Centre at Woy Woy starting on August 8 and running until September 26. The eight-week Surviving to Thriving program will focus on

helping women regain power in their lives and provide a platform for healing and discussion. The Peninsula Women’s Health Centre is operated under the banner of the Central Coast Community Women’s Health Centre, a feminist health centre providing services for women by women.

The program has limited places and it is recommended to book in advance. Childcare is also available but must also be booked in advance. For more information, call the Centre on 4337 2202. SOURCE: Website, 18 Jul 2019 Sally Jope, Central Coast Community Women’s Health Centre

Partners Mr Dayle Draper and Mr Craig Lawrence said they had been eyeing the Peninsula for years for a site for their business, Lifestyle Mattress and Bedding. Mr Draper said it was because the Peninsula had large sporting and ageing populations. “It’s a huge sporting area. “Anyone who plays sport knows the body gets jarred and bashed around,’’ he said. “If you have the right bed, you’ll heal quicker. “For example, a side-sleeper needs to keep their spine and head

straight. “If your bed is too soft, you’ll wake up sorer than when you went to bed. “For older people, you need to be able to roll over in your bed easily. “And people carrying too much weight need a bed that doesn’t sag when they sit on it or they’re doing their lower back an injustice. “Your sleep surface needs to fit your lifestyle,” Mr Draper said. Mr Draper said the business would offer good old-fashioned service, even picking up people from their homes if they wanted to visit the showroom.

Ettalong garden beds to get a makeover Garden beds along Ettalong town centre will get a makeover in time for spring as part of the beautification of Ettalong for entry into the Tidy Town competition. Peninsula Tourism Partners’ president Ms Kim Cole said the group planned to develop a planting schedule for all areas along Ocean View Rd, Picnic Pde Roundabout and Memorial Ave. The plans will be submitted to Council for approval. Local landscape architect Mr David Duncan will choose the trees and shrubs for the street scene. “The days of blooming garden beds are over because of high water usage and maintenance. “Along the streets of Ettalong I envisage scrubs, selected trees and ground covers,’’ he said. The Partners also have planned their launch for the 2019-2020

tourism season. “We are planning the Red Carpet Day in conjunction with a vintage car show, a Christmas lights competition and Santa’s special event: Carols on the Sand,” Ms Cole said. “For those residents with a green thumb who want to assist with the beautification project, your help is needed,” she said. A donation from Bendigo Bank Ettalong Beach will help the project. Branch manager Mr Peter McKeon said it was a perfect opportunity for the bank to help out with funding for the benefit of locals and visitors alike.

Playground opens at Patonga A new playground has opened at Patonga on the eastern side of the Patonga foreshore, opposite the oval. The area includes picnic tables, a swing set, swinging nest and linked play equipment. Central Coast mayor Cr Jane Smith said the new playground would act as a new attraction for both residents and the tourist community when visiting the seaside village. “This new playground provides a bonus for the kids and families who visit the area and helps promote a healthy outdoor lifestyle

in the fresh air,” she said. Not all residents are happy with the new playground though with some questioning why Council removed the pre-existing swing set from the foreshore. Council’s director Mr Scott Cox said that Council was committed to providing safe quality play spaces for the local community. “In 2018, Council commissioned an independent audit of all play spaces across the Central Coast to assist with future planning and identify any safety and compliance issues that were required to be addressed.

“A number of sites were considered non-compliant and required the removal of existing equipment including the swing sets that were previously located on the foreshore. “Council staff worked closely with the local community throughout design development for the new playground to ensure their needs were considered while still delivering a safe, functional play space that complies with current Australian Standards,” he said.

The screening is part of a campaign to raise awareness about plans to explore for gas off the Coast using seismic testing with powerful sonic blasts. Peninsula Environment Group xecretary Mr Mark Mann said: “Seismic testing is extremely harmful to marine life. “It can cause severe harm, including deafness and even death, to marine animals such as whales, dolphins and turtles. “The film Sonic Sea reveals the shocking effects of underwater noise such as seismic testing. “And of course, if they find gas the next step is to build gas rigs and start extracting gas.” Mr Mann said that although the gas industry claims gas has lower greenhouse emissions than coal, this may not be true because of methane leaks during

the extraction, transmission and processing of gas. “Even if gas is slightly better than coal, gas is still a fossil fuel leading to dangerous global warming. “We need to stop opening up new gas reserves and switch to zero-emissions energy such as wind and solar, which are now cheaper than gas anyway,” Mr Mann said. “We also have plenty of gas in Australia already, but most of it is exported. “In fact, Australia is now the world’s largest natural gas exporter.” As well as the movie, which lasts an hour, the evening will include a briefing about the exploration plans, and a discussion about how the local community can have a say on the issue. “We believe most people don’t want gas rigs off our beaches,” Mr Mann said. “But unless we make our voices heard this is a very real prospect.” SOURCE: Media release, 17 Jul 2019 Mark Mann, Peninsula Environment Group

“This one act of lunacy has cost the Central Coast region up to 7,000 skilled jobs and hundreds of millions in lost economic investment and benefit over the next 10 years. “The Central Coast has one of the worst youth unemployment rates in Australia and suffers from major welfare issues as a result, so it’s astounding that our Mayor and Warnervale was one of only six airports chosen for an Australian councillors have sought demonstrator tour to launch the new Cirrus SR22T G6 Turbo undermine the closing the airport, it was going straight into Porters no intention of renewing could do 10 movements, to her primary tactic, and Creek and downstream our lease agreements and then with all the education, training and gainful employment of beyond 2021. other aircraft activity, it since then, there’s been to that sensitive wetland. the anti-airport Motions “It’s nonsensical that “The Mayor has didn’t take long to log 88 those living on the Central Coast,” Codrington said. put to council which have you’d close the airport on repeatedly promised movements.

Who holds Council accountable? In response to the article “Outdoor play space upgraded” that appeared in Peninsula News edition 472; we live with constant noise pollution from ventilator fans at the south entrance of the Peninsula Leisure Centre. This noise has been 24/7 problem since February this year. So I was surprised to read about the centre’s multiple and expensive upgrades outlined by Mr Anthony Burling in this article. We have made centre staff, Central Coast Council and mayor Cr Jane Smith aware of the noise problem, which is so bad we can’t

Forum sit in our backyard, but so far no one have acknowledged or rectified the problem. If it is true that an “upgrade to the centre’s ventilation system” is on the cards, then the Peninsula Leisure Centre might reach out and communicate the timings of these upgrades to the residents most affected by the noise of their facility and indicate if these upgrades will include soundproofing. Otherwise, who holds Council accountable when they breach their own noise pollution guidelines? Email, 8 Jul 2019 Rino Breebaart, Woy Woy

Action is needed on eyesore sites Ocean Beach Rd is the gateway to Umina and just look at it: A derelict site where once was a servo and the burned out wreck of what used to be Umina Mall. The two sites are eyesores! But they also pose an even greater risk to Umina - the health and safety risks of asbestos. As if by some strange coincidence, the old servo and the mall were both subject to arson the former on 1 Jan 2018 and the latter on 13 Jan 2019. When asbestos is in a fire it is even more dangerous. It is referred to as “friable asbestos” and there are strict guidelines on how to handle such

Forum sites. I understand that friable asbestos exists on the servo site which is why development of that site is held up and that the Mall site has friable asbestos after the fire. Something needs to be done and, while Council does have some responsibilities, they are hamstrung by legislation on what they can demand is done within such sites. I suggest that everyone gets in touch with the local State Member for Gosford Ms Liesl Tesch to express their worry and concern. Email, 14 Jul 2019 David Keig, Umina

Website provides planning alerts To help Laurie Powell (Forum Peninsula News edition Forum 472) and others affected by development in their area, there is a wonderful free website which will notify them of any development applications lodged with Central Coast Council. The website is planningalerts. org.au. Log in to the site and choose the area you wish covered, and you

will receive automatic notification of any development applications in that area, so submissions can be made to Council in time. Whether they take any notice is another matter. The website is part of the Open Australia Foundation which relies on donations to fund it. Email, 5 Jul 2019 Rob Burns, Patonga

Under-30s cannot continue to live where they grew up In response to Suraya Correy’s letter published in Peninsula News edition 473; if medium density residential threatens to change the character of the Peninsula, then I whole-heartedly welcome it. Currently, that “character” manifests itself in the form of a whole generation of Peninsula under-30s being completely priced out of the market if they wish to continue to live in the place they grew up. Before the predictable replies pour in, spruiking the tired old rhetoric of pulling one’s self up by their boot straps and telling us to stop spending money on whatever trending item mainstream media has picked as the new “millennials”

Page 2 for contribution conditions thing, I took my parents advice, I got a good education and a professional job with great pay, yet here I am approaching 30 with the idea of purchasing my own home as much of a reality for me as walking on the moon.

Just take a look at the local real estate classifieds. Affordable, liveable, not-a-hotelroom-at-the-Mantra. Pick two. On the topic of the destruction of “distinctive and variable architectural character of our houses and garden” that’s utter rubbish. If I was able to save the $70,000 plus deposit to purchase a house and if I was able to afford the monstrous mortgage repayments, what would I have to show for it? The answer is a rundown, fibro clad shack with no insulation, a sandpit for a garden that has spent the last decade being run into the ground while you play slumlord and whore it out to the local unfortunates to rent.

Will quarterly bills disguise water price rises? Central Coast Council will introduce quarterly water bills from July 1. I think this is a sneaky way of the Council to raise the cost of water by introducing quarterly bills. It might be cheap at first but gradually they will rise.

Forum I remember when our phone bills were six monthly then reduced to quarterly and now monthly. It was done to increase revenue so people would not notice and I believe it will be the same with the

quarterly water bill. If you have trouble paying, you can apply for an extension. I don’t remember Central Coast Council sending out a letter informing us about this or asking our thoughts. Email, 9 Jul 2019 Brian Raffa, Woy Woy

Fresh fruit and fitness offered for team well-being A program including fitness training, fresh fruit, breast screening and help quitting smoking is being offered for the “team well-being” of its 300 employees by a local aged care provider. The program aims to recognise the emotional, physical and mental stresses that be experienced by people working in the health sector and was brought about through a grant from NSW Government’s Get Healthy at Work Program. Peninsula Villages has begun “a journey towards creating a culture that promotes wellbeing in the workplace”, according to its chief Mr Shane Neaves. “We recognised the need to make a modern change in our staff approach,” he said. “In total, 51 people have joined the group personal training sessions, with the response from staff being overwhelmingly positive. “The trainers of the sessions have been praised for their ability to be supportive and nonjudgemental, while encouraging attendees to push themselves,” he said.

Another initiative of the program is the pedometer and Fitbit challenge with staff teams competing to walk the most steps during the challenge period. “The staff that have participated in our steps challenge are quite competitive and it has certainly boosted morale around the Village. “Participants have noted that they are now more aware of their daily movements and that the challenge has encouraged them to be more active every day. “Many have also said that the challenge not only helped them physically, but it has had positive effects on their mental state of mind,” Mr Neaves said. “The traditional approach is to look at ways to support an individual worker once they become unwell. “But clearly, the smarter way to work is to prevent these problems occurring in the first place by creating a working environment that supports health and mental wellbeing,” he said.

The Killcare community group Killy Cares is installing a number of automated external defibrillators for emergency use in publicly accessible locations across the Bouddi area. The devices will be installed at locations across Killcare, Hardys Bay, Pretty Beach and Wagstaffe. Killy Cares committee member Ms Lyndall Jones said these locations are home to a growing population of holidaymakers and permanent residents and the defibrillators could help prevent tragedy in these remote

communities. “Part of the beauty of the area is its distance from civilisation and suburbia which is fine, until someone takes ill,” she said. “The nearest ambulance station is 20 minutes away. “This could mean the difference between life and death for someone who suffers a cardiac arrest,” Ms Jones said. Formed in 2014, Killy Cares is a registered not-for-profit charity which draws on a skilled and caring volunteer base to support and assist others in the Bouddi community in times of special need.

A key focus of the group has been raising funds to purchase the defibrillators. Killy Cares has also provided free CPR and first aid training through St John’s First Aid to over 100 members of the community over the past three years. In some cases the defibrillators will be located in publicly accessible areas on private property, while others will be located in businesses and community buildings.

It occurs when there is forceful and sudden movement of the head in any direction. Most commonly, it is forward to backwards movements, but it can occur with side to side movement as well. Whiplash is an injury to a variety of different structures of the neck; including muscles, joints, bones, discs and nerves. Most people recover from whiplash within a few days to weeks, whilst other cases can be more complicated and take months to heal, depending on the structures that have been injured.

back pain, headaches, stiffness, pins and needles in the arms and dizziness / light headedness. Whiplash is most commonly caused by car accidents. But in reality, any sudden impact to the head can cause Whiplash. At Umina Chiropractic Centre, we have treated a multitude of whiplash injuries of varying natures. A blow to the head from any impact sports such as football and boxing can produce the same vigorous movement of the head. Often the injury can be as minor as a tripping over where the head has been jarred. Trampolining is another common

incidents where vigorous dancing such as head-banging has been the culprit. If you suspect you may have a whiplash injury, it is important to have it assessed by a health care professional. Due to the traumatic nature of a whiplash injury, there is a risk of other injuries to the neck which need to be ruled out before undergoing any type of treatment. In the short term, to help ease the symptoms, you could try using ice to reduce swelling as soon as possible after the injury and gentle pain free stretching to keep the neck moving.

Pretty Beach wins public speaking competition A Pretty Beach Public School student has won the 2019 Hunter Central Coast Multicultural Perspectives Public Speaking Competition. Pretty Beach’s Macyn Van Borssum took out first place at the event and has qualified to represent the Central Coast at the regional final at Lewisham on August 19. The competition has been running for the past 24 years as a means of developing confidence and public speaking skills in public school students and in fostering an understanding and interest in the multiculturalism present in Australia. At the regional final, Macyn will be required to present both a prepared speech and an impromptu speech. The prepared speech must be on a topic selected from a list of multicultural topics presented by the NSW Arts Unit that coordinates the competition. Pretty Beach Public School relieving principal Mr Dave Rattray said the school was proud of Macyn and wished him luck at the regional finals.

Principal Ms Lynn Balfour said students had been regularly making the trip to the Men’s Shed over Term 2 to learn these skills and to take on complete individual woodworking projects. “The Men’s Shed members have been teaching the boys

Witches Leap

Double feature at folk club concert The Troubadour Folk Club is putting on a double feature concert at St Luke’s Church Hall, Woy Woy, on July 27. The club is bringing CelticAustralian group Witches Leap and veteran songstress Lisa Richards to the Peninsula for the night. “Witches Leap was born out of the kitchen table sessions of County Katoomba,” said Club president Mr Michael Fine.

“The haunting and beautiful music from this trio features the ancient earthy tones of the uilleann pipes, wooden Irish flute and bouzouki, along with acclaimed songwriting from Paddy Connor (Lime and Steel). Mr Fine said Lisa Richards was an enchanting singer who would bring original compositions to the concert. “Lisa has recently returned to

Australia after more than 20 years living and performing in the United States. “She has written and released six albums. “She’s been teaching the art of singing, songwriting and guitar for over 25 years, while continuing to write, record, perform and tour.” SOURCE: Media release, 17 Jul 2019 Michael Fine, Troubadour Folk Club

The Bays Community Group has announced the final three artists who will exhibit at The Bays Art Show. They are potter Ms Ruth Byrne, and artists Mr Giuliano Balos and Ms Megan Crawley. Ms Byrne is a potter whose love of pottery has taken her on a landmark adventure across Japan and China. “There is something special about the moment between a person and a cup of tea in their favourite cup or soup in their favourite bowl. “For me this is the most important part of my work, once it is out of my hands and being loved and enjoyed by its new owner,” Ms Byrne said. “My work is influenced by my experience with pottery in Japan, China and my home landscape in Australia.” Born in Italy but brought up in New York, Mr Balos’ said growing up in a city with one of the most vibrant art scenes in the world heavily impacted his art making. “The exposure to the art in many of the city’s museums and galleries gave me extensive first hand appreciation of famous art works. “In recent years, my artistic pursuits have focused mainly on pastels and drawing in pencil, ink and mixed media,” Mr Balos said. Mr Balos will be exhibiting pieces in the semi-abstract landscape genre across the mediums of ink, acrylics and pastels. Ms Crawley is a linework artist that primarily captures the natural world in her art making. “I draw with linework and pattern as I envisage the world to be. “Art is connective and deep,” she said. They will join Ms Meg Lewer, Mr Waye Hutchins, Mr Walter Koppen and Mr and Mrs Malcolm and Luka Vockins as the feature artists for this year’s event. The Bays Art Show exhibition and auction is The Bays Community Group’s major annual fundraiser and opened at the Bays Community Hall from 7:30pm on July 19.

Umina retains pool rescue championship title Umina Surf Life Saving Club has retained its championship title in this year’s Surf Life Saving NSW Pool Rescue Championships. The event saw more than 400 lifesavers from across the state descend on the Peninsula Leisure Centre at Woy Woy for two days of competition on July 13 and 14. Umina were the defending pool rescue champions going into the competition and fielded the largest team of the event with 46 athletes taking part across the Junior, Open and Masters categories. Umina excelled across all three divisions earning their overall first place and retaining their championship title with 27 gold medals, 21 silver and 11 bronze. Standout performers included Davara Marshall, Sienna Sinclair and Ronnie Jordan in the Juniors, Kaylah Holmes, Blake Hessel, Lachlan Braddish and Brock Ray in the Opens and Shelley Smith and Katrina West in the Masters. Umina Coach Ms Kerry Armstrong-Smith said: “Pool Rescue is a great sport that gives our lifesavers the skills to be able to pick up and carry a patient for a long distance. “It’s a great skill-based training over winter and keeps lifesavers fit over the colder months.” Fellow Umina Club member Mr Harold Marshall said the team was

ecstatic to have defended their Open State Championship title. “This is a fantastic result for our team and everyone who has worked so hard on developing and

building our Umina Pool Rescue team. “We have a number of strong athletes who have gone on to represent the state and Australia.

“They have been outstanding and a testament to the foundations set by our coaches,” Mr Marshall said.

The Peninsula’s junior Australian Football League club, the Peninsula Swans, have announced the final total of their Pink Socks Day fundraiser. The club held its Pink Socks Day on Mother’s Day to raise funds for breast cancer treatment and research. This year the Swans held a cake stall and sold raffle tickets to bolster their efforts and have revealed the final tally for this year’s campaign came in at $1000. It’s $400 more than what the Swans raised last year. The Saratoga Hawks Junior AFL Club, their rivals on the day, also donned pink socks in support of the cause. “It was great to see all players from the two clubs wearing pink socks,” said Peninsula Swans Club president Mr Jason Fulwood. “As community sporting clubs, it’s important to be able to give back to the community where we can. “We have a five-year strategy of encouraging kids of all backgrounds to join in and have fun and also making the club a family friendly environment. “The Mothers Day event is an example of what we are trying to achieve with the club,” he said. The funds from Pink Socks Day 2019 have been donated to the McGrath Foundation.

Woy Woy beaten 67 to nil Woy Woy has suffered its most severe defeat in recent memory during Round 13 of the Central Coast Rugby Union Competition, going down 67 points to nil against Ourimbah. Central Coast Rugby Union publicity officer Mr Larry Thomson said Ourimbah dominated the game from start to finish. “Ourimbah controlled proceedings from the opening whistle and went to the halftime break leading by 36 points to nil. “Woy Woy did play a little better

in the second half but the match was well and truly gone by that stage. “Best on the field for Woy Woy were Alex Moore and Kane Burns,” Mr Thomson said. He said Woy Woy could take some heart from the fact that Ourimbah have proven to be the undisputed best team in the competition this season, having been undefeated all year with 10 points between them and secondplaced Terrigal.

Shahida takes out Women’s Open in calisthenics Brisbane Water Secondary College student Shahida Wenham, 15, has taken out the Women’s Open at the Australian Freestyle Battle Titles. The titles were held in Brisbane on July 13-14, with Shahida beating out a host of older more experience competitors to take the

title. Shahida trains six days a week with Central Coast Calisthenics at Umina PCYC. Her coach Mr Chris Nixon said he was thrilled with the result. “Shahida has put an amazing amount of hard work leading up to the competition. “She was the youngest competitor amongst the women,

and her strong background in gymnastics gave her the edge in the comp,” Mr Nixon said. Shahida is now in training to defend her title when the next Australian Freestyle Battle event takes place in Melbourne later this year. SOURCE: Media release, 18 Jul 2019 Chris Nixon, Central Coast Calisthenics

THE SHAME FILE

Central Coast Newspapers has a very liberal credit policy for advertisers and realises that from time to time, people, businesses and organisations get into financial difficulty and may need assistance and time to get things back on track. However, some people, businesses and organisations take advantage of this generosity they use advertising but simply don’t pay their account after several months and need to be taken to court to do so. From time to time, as necessary, we will name these people, businesses or organisations as a warning to our readers so that they will be wary when dealing with them.

Classifieds advertising rates in print and on-line Classified advertising is the cheapest form of newspaper advertising. This newspaper is published on line on the night before publication date, and is read that way by hundreds of people. All advertisements, including these classified advertising pages, appear in full on-line as an additional benefit for free.

ALL ELECTRICAL AND DATA RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL

See or www.centralcoastnews.Net Central Coast Newspapers’ advertising rates are relatively much lower than in other newspapers and at the same time much larger than in other newspapers, with the minimum size being 50mm X 42mm. Approximately 16,000 copies of each newspaper are printed and distributed every fortnight.

Personal and Not For Profit Organisations As Central Coast Newspapers are community newspapers, the cost of advertising not for profit organisations’ events is subsidised. This makes them the same rate as non business advertisements. A mono 5cm advertisement only costs $33. Each additional cm costs $6.60 as does colour, and/or a photograph or a logo. Private advertisements need to be paid for at the time of booking.

Business rates

The minimum size of 5cm X a single column only costs $50 + GST in mono and an extra $10 + GST for colour, a logo or a photograph, every two weeks. Most businesses choose to advertise on an ongoing basis and discounts apply for multiple bookings, if they are paid for in full, in advance. Having an advertisement run for 3 months only costs $215 + GST, for 6 months it is $385 + GST, and for 12 months advertising, the total cost is only $700 + GST – Approximately $14 per week. Artwork is free and advertisers are encouraged to change their advertisements frequently

Southern and Ettalong United soccer player Iona Snape has played in a new elite junior competition launched this month. The Coast Cup was hosted by the Mariners with the hope it will become a major event for young players and referees. The inaugural Coast Cup was contested by Newcastle Jets Academy, Sydney FC Academy, Western Sydney Wanderers Academy, Marconi Stallions FC, Manly United FC, Edgeworth Eagles FC, Football NSW Talent Support Program, Football NSW Country, Future Matildas, Central Coast United FC, Northern Tigers FC, and the Central Coast Mariners Academy. Mariners Academy director Mr Ken Schembri said the cup had the potential to become an anchor event for the region and hopes to see it grow in the future. Southern and Ettalong United Club president Mr Glen Balneaves said the club was proud of Iona’s role with the Future Matildas. He said she had a bright future in football ahead of her.

Peninsula Thunder takes under-11s floorball title

Beverley McFarlane and Carol Edwards

Everglades duo wins Waterlily Pairs Everglades Women’s Bowling Club duo Beverley McFarlane and Carol Edwards have taken out the club’s annual Waterlily Pairs competition. Everglades Bowling Club held this year’s Waterlily Pairs on July 15 with all local clubs welcome to field a team for a chance to win $1000 prize money. Two games of 11 ends were played in the morning, followed

by a lunch break and then another game of 11 ends. McFarlane and Edwards emerged as the victors on the day with fellow club members Elaine Vincent and Maggie McEwan in second, Avoca’s Karen Croker and Helen McFadgen in third and Umina’s Lynne Gordon and Bev Collins in fourth.

The Peninsula Thunder Floorball Club has returned from the Junior Australian Floorball Open with the National Under-11s title. The club sent its Under-11s, 14s and 16s teams to this year’s Open, all of whom made the finals against the best junior floorballers in Australia and New Zealand. The Thunders’ Under-11s went undefeated throughout the event to claim the 2019 title with a 9-3 grand final win over home team Pakenham. The Under-14s also had a strong run through the competition. They made it all the way through to their grand final to be their division’s runners-up.

The Under 16s made it through to their semi finals but were unsuccessful in moving onto the grand final. Club president Mr Mitchell Fiddock said the junior’s performance was a testament to the level of young talent across the Central Coast. “We’re so proud of our juniors. “They played extremely well,” Mr Fiddock said. Held at Cardinia Life Stadium in Pakenham, Victoria, from July 9 to 12, the Open has become the premium floorball championship in the country. Mr Fiddock said the club was now focusing on the upcoming Northern Beaches Open as well as a special project closer to home.

“We’re the only floorball club on the Central Coast and, in a bid to grow the sport in the region, we’ve decided to hold a friendly competition this year. “We’re hoping this will attract some new players and everyone is welcome to come along and watch the games and learn more about floorball,” he said. The dates for the local competition are yet to be finalised but Mr Fiddock said the club would be launching registrations soon to gauge player interest.
