Kinglake Football-Netball Club gives warm welcome to visitors

■ YEA’s young people are being asked for their opinion about a proposed Youth Room and Community Gym. Young people and their families are being asked to complete a survey published in this issue of The Local Paper.

A Steering Committee has been formed with members from the Rotary Club of Yea, Victoria Police and Yea High Schools students and teachers.

● Enjoying the football-netball after-match get-together at the Kinglake oval on Saturday were Seville visitors (back row, from left) Jack Leithhead, Monique Kiker and Luke O’Keefe, with (front row, from left) Thomas Growen, Georgia Lesiputty (with ‘Indi’) and Lisa Di Palolo.

“This project has risen from a need for young people to feel connected to their local community,” said Jeannie Handsaker, Immediate Past President of the Rotary Club of Yea. “A fully supervised youth space will create a safe location for young people, giving them a senseof belonging and purpose, and provide them with valuable lifeskills.

“A youth gym will benefit the community as a whole, encouraging healthy lifestyle choice, promoting health and wellbeing, mental health and physical fitness.

“The gym will be available for use by all members of the community, providing weight loss programs, physical fitness and social interaction,” Mrs Handsaker said.

Yea people are being asked to complete a six-question survey, and return it to MannaFest Cafe, 94 High St, Yea, or Yea Pharmacy, 72 High St. The survey asks the respondents if they have children under the age of 18 in their home.

A second question asks if they would support a community space with a youth focus in Yea. People are asked to nominate two activities they would like to see represented. Examples are given such as art, drama and self defence.

Another question asks if a child aged between 10 and 18 in the household would use the gym, youth room (under 18 only) and/or school holiday program.

Survey respondents ask if they would use the gym, fitness training (weights/equipment), weight loss program, fitness programs (yoga, pilates, dance, Zumba, boxing and kick boxing), and a child minding service whilst exercising.

People are being asked if they prefer a school hours, or after school hours, availability.

Loris’s rich life in Yea, Kinglake and beyond ■ This is the eulogy for the late Loris Anderson, who was born on December 5, 1939, and who died on June 27 this year. A graveside service took place at Yea Cemetery on Tuesday last week (July 5): Loris Lynette Anderson was bossy but also a protector of her sisters and brothers.

Loris was the first born child of Frederick (Fred) and Marjorie Dean, nee Causer.

Fred had a business in Don Nash's shop, next to the Shire Hall, as a hairdresser and boot mender.

Loris was born on December 5, 1939, the year ending of the Great Depression.

Two years later, Loris had a sister, Margaret, and then Janice a year later.

Loris and Jan besides being sisters were good friends all their lives.

Haydn arrived in 1944, Allan in 1952 and Geoff in 1954.

They all had their chores to do.

One such chore was to take it in turns to do the evening meal dishes and for a number of nights Loris would make an excuse to go to the toilet.

Fred finally woke up to this and told the children to sit and wait until she came back and take her turn which she did.

During the holidays the family would often go camping to an Auntie's property at Thornton while their Dad stayed and worked.

The children attended the Presbyterian Church. The girls looked splendid in their seersucker dressers made by their mother, accompanied by clean shoes, gloves and hats.

Their home was twenty Miller St which is now a B& B. The Miller St house, of course, had the Yea River almost at the back door, which as time went on was great for the boys to go fishing.

The children remember it as being a good childhood, lots of fun and don't really recall going without.

The family didn't have much money but that didn't worry the children, although probably a struggle for their parents, they got on with having fun and just being kids.

It's only as they got older did they realise what a difficulty it had been for their parents.

When a pet died they put in a pusher and wheeled it around and around the yard.

Loris said, "I'm the oldest so you push it around" before burying it down the back.

One fox terrier 'Trixie' lived to the age of 15. The Dean's had many chooks, roosters, dogs and cats over

and Hawthorn East were very good to Geoff and Loris, for which they were thankful.

Geoff had started to go blind around about 1982 and was completely blind until after the fires in February 2009, when he went with Loris to Camberwell OPSM where she was having her eyes tested. As we know with the help of a professional after all these years Geoff could now see.

As you can imagine the delight and pleasure that Geoff now encompassed; he could watch DVD's and play his CD's, the beauty of nature, reading words on the sides of trucks and he could now make a cup of tea for Loris. Loris had been his carer and eyes for all those years. When

morning. Jan said often they didn't bother going to bed.

It is time to include the love of her life, Geoff Anderson, because he was part of her life for 34 years.

Geoff William Anderson met the striking clever lady Loris Dean at a party of a relative, and after a year of having fun going to parties, dances and dinner they were wed on November 30, 1976, in the Anglican Church Seymour. Jan was Matron of Honour.

When they married Loris was 37 and Geoff was 31. Loris was working in Spotswood at ACI as an accountant.

Then Loris was with the Associate Society of Accounts in Port Melbourne, worked auditing for an oil company.

Geoff was a gardener at Footscray Park, also working at Werribee Farm growing seeds.

He propagated seed and plants that had been illegally brought into this country.

He was growing them to see if they were dangerous, illegal prohibited in order to charge the importers.

It was at Werribee that Geoff collapsed due to previously undiagnosed diabetes.

They moved to 63 River St, Newport, where they lived for the next 28 years. During this time they bought an investment property in Kinglake.

In 1970 during the building of the West Gate Bridge ,the whole 2 000ton mass plummeted into the Yarra mud with an explosion of gas, dust and mangled metal that shook buildings hundreds of yards away.

Homes were spattered with flying mud. The roar of the impact, the explosion and the fire that followed could be heard more than two miles away.

Some 35 men were killed and 18 were injured. Geoff knew five of these men who he had gone to school with, causing a great deal of sadness.

Their home in River St was just down the street from the West Gate Bridge.

Geoff took ill and retired in 1982.

Geoff, Loris, Loris's brother Allan and his wife Rose, built on five acres in 18 Thompsons Lane, Kinglake.

They built log cabin kit homes with carports in between the two houses.

‘Darby and Joan’, as Geoff and Loris had been called ,were there for each other and happy in their own company. ● Turn To Page 6

Farewell Grant ■ Friend, Grant Wilmot, was born four days before me in 1956. He died last week, apparently after a heart attack, attempting to make his way to the Alexandra Hospital.

Grant, 59, grew up in Montmorency, and came to prominence with his football abilities.

He played with Monty junior and seniors, 38 senior games with Preston, five senior games with Collingwood, at Heidelberg West and Preston.

He coached at Eltham, Croydon, Heidelberg and Montmorency.

I regarded him as a “man’s man” with a top set of values. In recent years, he worked with troubled youth.

Our sincere condolences.

Thanks Glynne

● Whittlesea-Yea Rd, Junction Hill, south of Yea. ■ On its Facebook page, Yea and District Historical Society has featured a 1920’s photograph of the McKenzie family property at Junction Hill. Alan Thorley says: “Charles McKenzie married Emma Thorley at Muddy Creek (Yea) on February 23, 1859, and eventually moved out to Junction Hill and raised their family of 14 children before leaving for Forest Reefs, near Millthorpe, NSW, in the late 1880s leaving behind their oldest children in the Yea region. Charles went into gold mining there and along with his son-in-law, Joseph Bright, set up a crushing battery crushing quartz for the local miners. In his later life he was a storekeeper at the Reefs. In the 1920s when the photo was taken the property was owned by one of the son's who stayed at Yea, Charles Hugh McKenzie.”

Michael Garlick said: “The road was still dirt. I can remember dreading the car sickness sitting in the back seat and travelling to Melbourne this way.” Lorraine Stewart said: “I have vivid memories of travelling to Melb ourne on a Saturday morn with Mr Higgins in his station wagon , for swimming training in Richmond. The trip over Junction Hill in a car packed with kids and feeling quite woozy on that winding dirt road.”

Just Briefly Fatal at Glenburn ■ Police are investigating the circumstances surrounding a fatal collision which occurred at Glenburn on Tuesday last week.

Officers have been told a Toyota ute was headed west along Break-O’Day Rd around 6.05pm.

The male driver lost control of the car and collided with a east bound Mitsubishi van.

The driver of the van, believed to be a man in his 30s, died at the scene.

The other driver, a man believed to be in his 20s, suffered life threatening injuries and was transported to hospital for treatment.

Meeting criticism

■ Kinglake resident Trevor Johnson says the Murrindindi Shire’s public meeting last Thursday (July 7) was poorly advertised, and probably deliberately so.

He says there was only a small attendance, and Council staff had a hand-out that was more like a sales brochure: “a dunny roll would have been more useful”.

Mr Johnson said the literature had “pretty pictures”, but not much in the way of solid information.

Mr Johnson said his question about the number of vehicles operated by the Shire brought an answer that told him “two-tenths of nothing”.

Mr Johnson said his assertion that the Council had 150 employees was denied by Shire staff, but that he had a laptop computer operating at the meeting, and that he was able to refer to a Shire document that proved his claim.

Mr Johnson used the word “obscene” to describe that staff level for a municipality with only 14,000 residents.

Yea bridge works pre-planned: builder ■ The dismantling of the bridge carpentry at the entrance to the Yea Caravan Park was pre-planned, and part of a Murrindindi Shire schedule of works, says building contractor David Moon of Limestone.

Mr Moon says his company, Moon and Sons Builders, was appointed by the new lessees of the park to conduct the civil works at the park.

This includes the installation of four motel units, four cabins and the manager’s residence.

Mr Moon said a 35-tonne crane was used to help bring six large buildings from Miller St, across the small Court St bridge, into the park.

Mr Moon says it was always part of the plan to have to cut the timber railings from the bridge to undertake this project.

He says the renewal of the bridge was already going to be undertaken by the Shire in its schedule of current works.

The Local Paper has been unable to find the bridge works in any Council budget papers.

The bridge timbers were removed about Thursday, June 30.

Safety fencing was erected on July 1.

Sustainable Parks took over the lease of the park on July 1.

It is unknown which entity is funding the bridge renewal.

Glenburn presentation to Doug Lawson ■ More than 60 Glenburn community members gathered at the Glenburn Hall on Sunday afternoon to thank Doug Lawson for his contribution to the local area.

Next week sees the end of a local farming enterprise following Doug’s retirement and move to Rosebank, Yea. Speeches were given by Jan Joyce and neighbour-of-17-years Gordon Brown.

Doug’s selfless contribution to the Fire Brigade and as a Justice of the Peace were mentioned. The late Jim Plowman nominated Doug as a JP, 40 years ago.

Doug’s grandparents moved to Glenburn in 1895, with his grandfather working as an engineer for the Shire of Yea, between 191423.

Doug farmed all his life, but it was not always easy, and he supplemented the family icome by milking cows prior to 6am daily, and transporting stock.

Gordon Brown said how much Doug had taught him about stock work. Jan Joyce said Doug was a “people person”

Whittlesea Freemasons meet

● Smoking ceremony ecplained by Mick Harding at Y Water Centre ■ The Y Water Discovery Centre welcomed NAIDOC Week on July 2 and 3 as it celebrated the Taungurung community and its culture.

Located on the lands of the Waring-illambalug clan of the Taungurung, the Centre hosted a range of cultural activities that commenced with a Welcome to Country and smoking ceremony. All of the events held over the weekend were led by the Taungurung people.

A key feature of the weekend's activities was the launch of two animated dreaming stories that portray the creation narrative which is the basis of the Taungurung's beliefs.

The project was created in collaboration with members of the Taungurung community and Monash University's Country Lines archive program.

The launch came as the theme for this year's NAIDOC Week 'Songlines: The living narrative of our nation.'

Much of this work was led by Aunty Loraine Padgham and Angela ten Buuren (nee Franklin) and their families.

Y Water Centre Association member, Russell Wealands said: "Since the settlement of Victoria the language, culture and traditions of the Taungurung people have been progressively lost with each generation's passing. “(The) release of these animations marks an important milestone and provides the tools that not only help to connect Taungurung descendants with their ancestors, but assist the understanding of today's Australians about our country’s indigenous community."

Working collaboratively with Mr Wealands and supported with funding through the Goulburn Broken CMA, the weekend of celebrations and fun activities provided an opportunity for everyone to enjoy and importantly, learn about this region's indigenous community, the Taungurung.

There were wood burning demonstrations

by Mick Harding; weaving and language talks were presented by Lee Healy; bush tucker talks by Cassie Leatham-Harrap; bush craft was explained by Annette Sax; and a stone artefact talk was given by Shane Monk.

The Y Water Centre Association is working in partnership with the Taungurung Clans Aboriginal Corporation and Taungurung descendants.

Mayor’s C olumn Cr Margaret Rae

■ Given that elections are very much to the front of mind over recent weeks, albeit they have had a Federal focus, I thought I would take the opportunity to look further at one of the draft proposals in the Directions Paper for the new Local Government Act. These are recommendations that will actually affect you, the community, in how you can exercise your vote in electing your councillors in the future.

It is important, therefore, that you take the opportunity to put forward your point of view and your preference in how this should be legislated going forward.

Currently, the eligibility to vote is very complex. In many ways it is quite different from voting at State and Federal elections in that the right to vote at Council elections arises from a broader set of criteria.

In summary, these fall into two categories: 1. Being enrolled on the register of electors for the Victorian Legislative Assembly (that is, State elections), and 2. Owning or paying rates on a property with the municipality but not being on the state roll.

The first category gives automatic enrolment and right to vote in Council elections.

The second category, however, is further subdivided with differing entitlements, as follows: a) Up to two owners of rateable property not resident in the municipality, for example the first two named non-resident owners listed on council's rate records. These owners are enrolled automatically to vote. This is mandatory unless aged 70 and over. b) Up to two resident owners of rateable property other than the above who are not on the state roll (non-Australian citizens). These owners are not enrolled automatically and have to make an application to be included on the voting roll. Voting is optional. c) Up to two occupiers who are ratepayers for a property (such as shop tenants). With the approval of the owner, these occupiers may make an application to be enrolled in place of the owner. Voting is optional. d) One representative (director or secretary) of a corporation owning or occupying a rateable property. If an occupier and with the approval of the owner, may make an application to be enrolled in place of the owner.

Voting is optional.

As can be seen there is a much wider representation of the community who may ultimately be eligible to vote, providing they know and understand what category they fall into and what the relevant requirements are.

There is also an anomaly in that it is possible for someone to own property in a local government area, to actually live elsewhere, to not be an Australian citizen and therefore not eligible to be enrolled on the State electoral roll, but still be eligible to vote in a Council election in the area where they are ratepayers.

There is a significant lack of understanding around who is enrolled automatically and who must make an application to be enrolled.

There is also a lot of additional work and record keeping at each Council to ensure that the additional voters, who are included on what is known as the CEO's list, are recorded carefully and accurately and included in the final list of eligible voters.

The aim in the new Act is to make this system simpler, fairer and easier to understand, so currently there are two options proposed: Either ■ Make the entitlement to vote in a council election to be on the register of electors for the Victorian Legislative Assembly (the state roll) for an address in their municipality.

Grandfather the voting entitlement of existing property-franchise voters in that municipality. Institute compulsory voting for all enrolled voters.

Or ■ Maintain the existing franchise but cease automatic enrolment of property owners and require these voters to apply to enrol for future council elections if they choose to do so.

Institute compulsory voting for all enrolled voters.

These two options have been distilled from the first round of consultations - that doesn't preclude other suggestions or refinements being made during this consultation stage.

The coming elections in October will, of course, be under existing conditions and so this will provide a good opportunity for you to consider whether the current system works for you or how it might be changed for the better. Please think about this and put forward your opinion. Your voice is important.

Obituary

‘Afterburn’ premieres ■ A television documentary on the Black Saturday fires premiered on pay-TV this week.

Afterburn: In the Tiger’s Jaws is a feature documentary that follows the long-story of recovery for three families in the aftermath of the firestorm as they struggle to deal with a crisis and its long shadow.

The film uncovered the devastating cost of natural disasters to communities, families and individuals.

Dr. Rob Gordon, a leading trauma and disaster specialist revealed how powerfully the undiagnosed symptoms of traumatic brain injury continues to erode relationships, families and lives long after the event; and not just in this generation but into the next and the next.

Afterburnis the result of a five-year collaboration with the people of Steels Creek who survived the firestorm and chose to rebuild their lives and community in a place where they now know a lethal, devastating, unstoppable fire will visit them again.

In the wake of these fires, Steels Creek was a community in crisis and as they began the long task of rebuilding, this community approached a trauma specialist, historians and a filmmaker (who had previously captured survivor stories from the 1939 Black Friday firestorm), to help them understand the perils of recovery, history and location following the worst bushfire disaster in Australia since 1939.

They wanted to know how to learn to live with the legacy of fire and how to recover from the trauma, anxiety and night terrors affecting their children and partners.

During interviews in 2003 for her ABC and Film Victoria documentary on the 1939 Victorian bushfires, Fahy encountered shocking evi-

● Moira Fahy, Afterburn filmmaker

About Moira Fahy ■ Moira Fahy is an award-winning, independent film producer, director and scriptwriter.

Moira has produced five documentaries on the impact of natural disasters in Australia.

She is the producer, writer and director of the ABC and Film Victoria documentary on the 1939 Black Friday fires which was a finalist in the 2004 AIMIA Awards, won the Victorian Fire Awareness Community Service Award for Excellence and an ATOM Award in 2004 for Best Documentary.

Her Black Friday documentary was also cited in the 2004 COAG Report to the Federal Government on Bushfire Mitigation and Management as a key recommendation for the recovery of bushfire affected communities.

Moira Fahy was also invited to speak at the Victorian Royal Commission into the Black Saturday bushfires in 2009.

In an excerpt from Professor of History, ANU, Dr Tom Griffiths, invited evidence to the Royal Commission , he noted that her work was: “An important example of collaborative community historical scholarship that analyses both the experience and memory of fires.” ence of survivors in families. their eighties and nineHow could these ties still horribly three families in 2009 crippled by trauma do things differently they had suffered dur- and manage their reing the event nearly 65 covery in such a way years earlier. as to insure a better For many this was future than the survithe first time they had vors from the 1939 shared the horror of Victorian bushfires? what had happened to As the film opens, them and given voice eminent social and to the cauterizing af- military historian Dr. fect trauma had had on Peter Stanley maps their lives. the path of the This experience Kilmore East fire stayed with her and from its ignition point created a specific fo- to the time, over five cus for Fahy in this hours later, when it exfilm in exploring the plodes out of the anatomy of traumatic Kinglake National brain injury with these Park and destroys the

community of Steels Creek.

As the fire arrives, the three families weave their own terrifying recollections into Stanley’s account as he recreates the 1½ hours that would forever change their lives.

While Dr. Stanley speaks to the present, Dr. Tom Griffiths, a social and environmental historian, speaks to the past and the future.

He reminds us that fire, like flood, always returns to the sameplace and that the great mountain monarchs in the national parks surrounding Steels Creek were waiting for just this day to fulfill their destiny. Catastrophic events such as Black Saturday fracture communities and individuals.

People lose a sense of their own identity and safety. Who are they now in their borrowed clothes standing amongst the ruins of all they have lost?

And when the news cameras, relief centres and recovery and reconstruction authorities have packed up and left, how do they prepare for the long-story of recovery? How do they pull together, not fall apart?

Afterburn is described as apowerful and moving story of three families in one small community decimated by the Black Saturday firestorm who have to do just that but they don’t have to do it alone.

“This community, Steels Creek, had the foresight, courage perhaps, to ask for help,” says a review.

Afterburn: In the Tiger’s Jaws is the final piece of the Victorian Bushfire Research Project, a project that seeks to address the gap in understanding of the social, cultural and ecological dimensions of fire experience while also looking at the long-term impact of trauma on these communities.

Cathy McGowan talks with Turnbull ■ Cathy McGowan, Independent MHR for Indi, released a statement following her re-election at the July 2 poll.

“The country wants stable and settled government to enable everyone to get on with their lives and business.

“As an independent I stand by my principle of no deals. A deal is when you agree to do something in exchange for something.

“I will maintain my independence and I am totally committed to the following: ■ I am not in opposition

■ I will continue to work with the government of the day to achieve what's needed for my electorate and the nation ■ I will consider each piece of legislation on its merits and vote according to my conscience, my electorate and the needs of the nation “Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull and I agreed that while maintaining my complete independence, I am prepared to contribute to the stability of the 45th Parliament by continuing with my past practice of supporting the Government of the day on supply and matters of confidence.”

Loris Anderson Loris said: “He is my husband and I'll look after him”. They enjoyed getting out and going for drives.

Once a week Loris and Geoff would travel from Kinglake to South Kingsville 'Learning Club' joining in with craft and woodwork; they loved it. Loris was the treasurer. One time they went to Tasmania, travelling 12,000 kms around the isle.

They went to the Golden Wattle Club in Healesville twice a week where Loris would drop Geoff off for a few hours, Loris went off shopping while Geoff attended the different activities.

Golden Wattle is an activity group which aims to support older people or adults with a disability to continue living independently in the community. The program provides structured activities that reflect the interests of participants and which also foster friendship and social interactions.

Geoff had his hobbies. He had an amazing stamp collection - 38 albums - he had been collecting since the age of 13. He also had a massive LP and CD collection.

Geoff loved his music, Loris wasn't so keen, and would frequently yell at him to turn it down.

Over the years Geoff's sight had deteriorated quite rapidly. All his collections were lost in the fires. OPSM collected money to replace some of these, they also bought Geoff an IPod which had 2600 songs listed.

He looked at Jan and said "sis you look beautiful. Her response: "Go get your eyes tested" The Black Saturday bushfires, as we know, were a series of bushfires that ignited or were burning across the Australian state of Victoria on and around Saturday, February 7, 2009, and were Australia's all-time worst bushfire disasters.

As many as 400 individual fires were recorded on February 7. At 4.45 pm the Kilmore East fire front arrived at Kinglake.

Kilmore East and Murrindindi Mill fires merged to form the Kinglake fire complex on Sunday, February 8.

Being such a hot a day on the Saturday, Geoff was taking it easy with the air-conditioner working hard. Loris was outside and saw this red streak, the fire was bearing down.

Allan anxiously said "Let's get out. We haven't much time" With a lantern torch Geoff was able with help to find the car, they couldn't find their dog. Rose and Allan drove to the Kinglake Hotel where 200 other people had gathered, and the publican wouldn't let anyone inside even to use the toilet.

We can't possibly imagine or know the fear, the trauma this couple experienced or their on going battles to get through each day.

The next day they managed to get to Seymour and into a motel before Lorisphoned Jan saying "we're coming to stay with you whether you like it or not" They stayed for seven weeks before moving into a rental property in East St, Yea, where they were grateful for all the donations they received, especially from Wayne and Cindy Tennat from OPSM Loris, her sister Jan, and Geoff would head off early every Saturday morning to Healesville or Flowerdale Markets. They did this before and again after the fires.

Geoff spent time taking cuttings and potting up plants ready to take to the markets.

Many years earlier Loris has also sold at the Footscray Market, she made beautiful embroided baby rugs that were sold in an exclusive baby shop.

For sale Loris had toffee apples, teddy bears, babies' clothes booties and painted cards. They also had crocheted rugs, embroidery purses and glass cases, also bookmarks.

They made many friends over the years.

In the early days Loris and Geoff enjoyed doing tapestries; it is said Geoff was much neater finishing off on the back than Loris. There were tapestries of hunting scenes, the countryside, dogs and more.

Loris has always enjoyed doing cryptic cross-words, word searches and painting. She was charitable to organisations like Australian Red Cross, Lost Dogs Home and St Vincent De Paul.

When living in Yea they enjoyed going to Allana's Café in the High St, enjoying many a cup of tea.

In fact if Geoff wanted Loris to stop talking he'd say "Cup of tea for the wife" Loris was a good talker.

Better business

■ Murrindindi Inc. is advancing on a number of fronts according to its inaugural chair, Kinglake based businessman Brad Quilliam.

“Our first major Stage 1 initiative has been to survey some 200 local businesses operating within the Murrindindi Shire. ““By a combination of hard copy, personal communication and online responses we had over 100 businesses provide input and further survey responses are still being received.

“The survey, undertaken by an external consultant, asked a series of questions to determine local business confidence and the value perceived in business networking, information events or functions, together with training or service improvement needs and scope for the introduction of business mentors.”

Councillor’s Comment Cr Chris Healy

■ In Cr Walsh's Councillor Comment last week he talks about handing certain assets, which Council currently assumes responsibility for, back to community groups and that "if such commitment is not forthcoming it would put into question the real need for the particular facility and perhaps a strategy of closure and sale should be pursued".

This argument could equally be applied to parks or stretches of road or any piece of infrastructure that Council currently manages on behalf of ratepayers and residents.

Council needs to be mindful of the fact that councillors and Council employees all work for our residents and ratepayers.

Ratepayers and residents should be treated as our reason for being in, or on, Council and we should do our best to provide the best possible service at the best possible price.

Council has legislated power to collect rates in order to provide the services that we provide.

If we are going to hand responsibility for managing and paying for community assets back to the community, why should the community be paying rates on assets that they are going to be expected to take responsibility for?

There is an assertion that Council is in a bad way financially. Figures show that Council currently collects considerably more rates than it ever has, and has a reserve in the order of $20 million.

In my opinion it is time that Council considers the effect of higher rates on the ratepayers of the Shire and does its best to reduce the financial demand on the ratepayer.

Bushfire class action lawyer talks about payments delay assessment completion, there has been significant progress in the assessment of personal injury claims since our last update letter in May. Specifically: “ Over 99 per cent of personal injury claimants have now attended a meeting with assessing counsel.

“We have now received notices of assessment in respect of over 90 per cent of personal injury claimants.

“Based on the progress made to date, we remain confident that we will be able to make a settlement distribution to personal injury claimants towards the end of 2016 or early 2017.

“Property damage assessment progress “We have also made significant progress in the assessment of property damage claims.

“Almost all property damage claims have now been allocated to assessors for assessment and approximately 80 per cent of Provisional Notices of Assessment have been completed by the property loss assessors.

“A large number of Final Notices of Assessment have also now been issued. We anticipate that over the next month, a substantial proportion of the remaining Final Notices of Assessment will be issued.

“Whilst the assessment of property damage claims is somewhat less advanced than the assessment of personal injury claims, we remain confident that we will be able to make a settlement distribution to property damage claimants towards the end of 2016 or early 2017.

“Outcome of independent costs audit “On June 20, 2016, the court-appointed independent costs expert provided the Court with an expert report auditing

the costs incurred in the settlement distributionprocess to date.

“In order to prepare his report, the independent costs expert was provided with a comprehensive overview of the work done by the Settlement Distribution Team, both by way of a comprehensive set of documents and through face to face meetings with Settlement Distribution Team staff.

“The independent costs expert also attended Maurice Blackburn on multiple occasions to review hard and soft copy files and databases and requested access to records to verify work that was done.

“Based on his review, the costs expert concluded that all of the work done by the Settlement Distribution Team was reasonable and that the costs incurred were reasonable considering the huge amount of detailed and complex work that has been undertaken to assess group members’ claims accurately and efficiently.

“Case Management Conference on June 21, 2016 “On June 21, 2016 a Case Management Conference was held before Justice Jack Forrest of the Supreme Court of Victoria at which we reported on the progress of the settlement administration.

“To assist the Court I prepared a detailed Affidavit with information regarding the progress of the settlement administration.

“A copy of this Affidavit, as well as the independent costs expert’s report, is available on the Supreme Court of Victoria’s website at http://www. supremecourt.vic.gov.au/ kilmore east kinglake bushfire class action settlement “The Supreme Court of Victoria has scheduled two further Case Management Conferences for Monday, September 12 at 9.30am and Monday,

November 14 at 9.30am.

“Information about the settlement administration “In total, I estimate that in the 18 months since the settlement was approved, the Settlement Distribution Team has engaged in over 20,000 standard communications with group members in relation to the assessment of individual claims.

“In addition, the Settlement Distribution Team has engaged in more than 40,000 other communications with group members via email or over the phone in relation to a broad range of issues, including questions specific to the status of individuals’ claims, the progress of the settlement administration generally, interim payments, review requests and late registration applications.

“Unfortunately, a small number of disaffected group members and others have engaged in a process of spreading misinformation regarding the settlement administration process.

“I want to ensure that all group members are properly and appropriately informed about the settlement administration.

“To this end, please rely on official communications from Maurice Blackburn or the Court or contact our offices on 1800 995 570 if you have any concerns or questions about the settlement administration.

“I reiterate our commitment to managing and conducting this settlement administration in an efficient, cost-effective and timely way, whilst remaining sensitive to the needs of individual group members. I appreciate that group members are anxious to receive their settlement monies. The Settlement DistributionTeam is doing everything possible to ensure that settlement distribution can occur towards the end of 2016 or early 2017.

30 Years Ago Book of Records

■ Molesworth farmer Ken Baynes called on Yea Council to make application to the Guinness Book of Records as the “slowest bridge repairers” in Australia.

Mr Baynes told us in 1986 that the Yea Council closed a bridge three years previously. The birdge provided access to his property, and another, during floods.

The Shire had never returned to repair it.

Rail hopes fade

■ Hopes were slimmer for a re-opening of a tourist railway by the Tallarook-Yea Tourist Railway Preservation Society. The Society aimed to re-open the line easterly from Tallarook, first to Kerrisdale, and then to Yea. V/Line told the Society that it would need to spend $1 million to bring the line up to standard. The Society replied this was a standard obviously much higher than that set by the Victorian Railways previously on the line.

Non-drinker

■ A man who told Yea’s Acting Sgt Graeme Broadbent that he had not been drinking, registered a .159 blood-alcohol reading, Yea Court was told.

The man had been involved in a single motor vehicle accident at Kerrisdale, and said he had swerved to avoid a wombat on the road.

He later admitted to having two beers at Seymour, and had bought a flask of whisky between Shepparton and Mooroopna.

The man faced Magistrate Meehan and was disqualified from driving for two years, and fined $450.

TV report anger

■ “Motorists intending to drive through Yea at the weekend kept local Police busy on the telephone, after a television report headed ‘Yea Floods’ was broadcast,” we reported 30 years ago.

“Channel 7 news reporter Andrew Hall filed a two-minute report showing damage at Murrindindi Station and Limestone Lodge properties.

“Cameraman Ian McGill and sound recordist Simon Hearn filmed a segment as they were driven by Des Collins around the Station.”

Tribute to Bill

■ A tribute to the late Bill Purcell was given at Scots Church,Yea, following his death on July 11, 1986, we reported. Coffin bearers were John Yorston, Cr Dougal Drysdale, Lindsay McIntosh, grandson Stuart Purcell, Ian Scott and Ray Allen.

Don McLeish, a fellow member of the Yea Highland Pipe Band, in full ceremonial kilt, led the funeral procession and blew Amazing Grace and My Home, favourites of the former Drum Major.

The cortege from Scots Church passed the Civic Centre, the Duke of Clarence Lodge, the Yea Fire Station (where the bell tolled slowly as a mark of respect), and the premises of E.S. Purcell and Co.

Jaws collection

■ Yea Group firemen collected $6505 in a roadside collection at the Goulburn Valley Hwy-Whatton Pl. corner, with three teams raising funds to purchase ‘jaws of life’ road rescue equipment.

1986 beer prices

■ The Maindample Hotel advertised with us in 1986, with Carlton and United Breweries beer at $15.90 per carton, and stubbies at $17.60 per carton. Cans were priced at $17.90 per carton.

Federal Election: Local Polling Places

Clear win to ALP’s Mitchell in McEwen

■ A ham-fisted campaign by Liberal candidate Chris Jermyn saw Labor’s Rob Mitchell gain a 7.7 per cent swing in what had been a marginal seat.

The margin for McEwen had been a slim 0.2 per cent, and the Liberals had hoped that matters such as the Country Fire Authority controversy might deliver them the seat.

Chris Jermyn had an accidentprone campaign which caught wide media attention.

He was featured on TV news services, gatecrashing a Labor Party function in McEwen at which Opposition Leader Bill Shorten was attending.

Jermyn’s voter registration at a vacant block at Christmas Hills is under investigation.

Sexual assault

■ Sexual Crime Squad detectives are appealing for public assistance after a woman was sexually assaulted in Lilydale.

Police have been told the 50-yearold woman was approached on January 27 by an unknown man who was collecting hard rubbish on North Rd sometime before midday.

The pair struck up a conversation and the man said he collects and sells hard rubbish.

The man forced her into a grey 4WD and drove to a nearby street where he sexually assaulted her.

The offender then drove the woman home where she raised the alarm.

Sports Pictorial

89-point win for Yea Tigers Thornton Eildon 5.6 (36) defeated by Yea 19.11-125 Yea has shifted back into the top five following a comprehensive performance against Thornton-Eildon, running out 89-point winners.

One week on from a disappointing loss to arch rivals Kinglake, the Tigers burst out of the blocks on the back of a six goal to zero first term personified by sharp ball movement and spreading from defence.

Despite being 39 points down at quarter time, the Boners bounced back to force the contest into an arm wrestle with repeat stoppages and increased intensity, limiting the visitors scoreboard dominance until the final change.

At this point, Yea turned on the after burners to slam on eight last term goals, finishing full of run on a day where decent weather saw the return of the free flowing, team orientated football that they were producing earlier in the season.

Coach Guy Morphet's decision to stack the Tiger midfield with strong bodies paid dividends all day; Brad Cunningham (three goals) caused havoc in close, Matt Ivill extracted the footy with ease and Riley Aldous (two goals) was outstanding.

Daniel Evans led the charge from half back with a stack of possessions, ably assisted by Eddie Neilson in his return to the senior side

and James Flynn in his first match in defence, while Ash Hobbs continued his charge towards the league goal kicking title with five majors.

The win was soured by a head knock to debutant Hayden Witton during the second quarter that sidelined the teenager for the remainder of the afternoon after he made a promising start to the game.

Yeawill look to forward to hosting Powelltown, a team the Tigers beat by one point in a thriller earlier this year.

Evans RESERVES Thornton Eildon 4.4 (28) defeated by Yea 16.17 (113) Yea has won two on a trot as the team continues its mid-year revival, following last week's stirring win against Kinglake with an 85 point belting of Thornton-Eildon.

The Tigers virtually put the game beyond contention in the first term, booting six goals to one to take a commanding 33 point lead at quar-

ter time but much like the senior side, were made to earn their keep over the next hour as the hosts hit back hard.

Despite holding an insurmountable 54-point lead at the final change, Yea didn't let up and put through five late goals to a solitary behind to finish the contest in emphatic fashion.

Peter Kiss was on fire early, causing nightmares for the Boner defence and finished with a game high six majors, while Lachie White again proved an excellent foil with four goals of his own up forward.

Lachie Beattie (two goals) was dominant both in the air and on the ground, Cameron Evans won the ball at will through the midfield and Zac Butler was typically industrious in tight.

Tom O'Dwyer produced his best performance of the season thus far and Trent McMahon (two goals) found plenty of space, while Cameron Ryan was excellent down back and on the ball.

Yea will be aiming for a third successive win against Powelltown on Saturday.

● Sam Mather kicks for Kinglake

Seville swamped by Lakers Kinglake 17.11 (113) defeated Seville 13.8 (86) On a mild winter day Seville started off strongly, kicking three quick unaswered goals to the western end of the Kinglake Memorial Oval.

It would be more than 10 minutes into the first quarter before Kinglake managed score when full forward Josh ‘Nicko’ Nixon would mark and put Kinglake's first major for the day onto the scoreboard.

Kinglake versus Seville has seen been some tough affairs in the past, with the field umpires actually abandoning a game, at Kinglake, on July 10, 2010 after persistent on-field fighting. (According to the YVMDFL, the only game to do so in their history).

Whilst Saturday's game was a tough game, the fighting was played out this time with the football.

Seville started stronger but Kinglake was able to find something midway through the first quarter and managed to to finish in front by a small margin. Kinglake 4.1 (35) to Seville 3.3 (21).

Scores stayed close throughout the second quarter, as neither Kinglake nor Seville were able to really break away and build a formidable margin.

The lead had switched to Seville's advantge, with scores Kinglake 6.7 ( 43) to Seville 7.4 (46) at half-time.

The Lakers and Seville came out fired up after the half-time break, but it would be Kinglake who kicked the first goal, within the opening minute.

Seville could sense the extra vigour the Kinglake players had come out of the rooms with after half-time and quicky stepped up their pressure too.

The third quarter would be yet another tight affair, with Seville having a four point margin going into the final break.Kinglake 9.9 (63) to Seville 10.7 (67).

In the final term, Josh ‘Nicko’ Nixon came out firing, taking 4 contested possesions and kicking three goals in the final term.

Grandstander Under 12

■ Yea faced ladder leaders Euroa at home on Sunday. The Magpies were short on players and young guns Jim Cudmore and Oliver Wischer put their hands up to help them out, well done boys.

Jim and Oliver both played well for the Maggies in the first quarter. Oliver kicked a goal and Jim marked everything that came his way.

Fortunately, Yea were able to get the boys back into the yellow and black at quarter time, after reinforcements arrived for Euroa. ¼ time: Yea 0. 0 (0) to Euroa 3.2 (20) Yea played better footy in the second quarter. Will Clarke moved to centre half-back and Riley Slevin had a run on the ball. Reece Hargreaves was dominating across half-back for the Tigers and his hard work led to Rhys Harding kicking a beauty. ½-time: Yea 1.0 (6) to Euroa 4.2 (26) The Tigers running game emerged in the third quarter. Austen Ross was in fine touch across half forward, Monty Lawson was hitting targets and Jimmy Cudmore continued to clunk his marks. ¾ time: Yea 3.1 (19) to Euroa 5.5 (35) Yea battled on in the final term. Lucas Zipzin played another fine game at full back and was well supported by Will Clarke. Euroa extended their lead to run out deserving winners.

Final scores Yea 3.1 (19) to Euroa 8.7 (55) Goalkickers: Rhys Harding, Riley Frankcombe and Hayden Marks.

Awards: Royal Mail vouchers - Rhys Harding and Austen Ross. Tiger Bucks - Jim Cudmore. Coaches Award - Reece Hargreaves.

Hannah and Sophie both intercepted Euroa's centre passes beautifully. Nicki and Mia goaled extremely well and Yea held onto their lead in the first quarter. Yea 11, Euroa 7 Q2. Both teams worked very hard in the second quarter and it was a while before any score went on the board. Euroa got a few goals in before Yea responded with their own.

Final Score: Yea 42 defeated Euroa 36 Awards: Royal Mail Hotel - Nikki Watts, Tiger Bucks - Bridget O'Dwyer ★ UNDER 14. DIVISION 1. NETBALL Q1. This game was full of pressure for the girls, a tight defence by Euroa and a slight lack

of confidence from Yea kept the girls on their toes. The pressure worked to pump up the play with Yea leading this quarter. Ebony and Sam showed some strong team defence. Yea 8, Euroa 3 Q2. Ruby’s quick foot work and overall coverage of the court showed her skills in centre.

Euroa picked up on Yea’s fire, in turn their defence was tighter making goals harder to shoot.

Yea 13, Euroa 7 Q3. Yea struggled this quarter, losing the ball through bad passes and miss reading of the ball.

The goals just weren't going in to help Yea stay on top of Euroa. This quarter the girls lost their fire and drive. Yea 14, Euroa 13 Q4.

Kim Slavin swishes 18 in D-Grade YEAA-GRADE NETBALL Results had been showing that the Boners have been on the improve and the Tigers knew this could be a danger game.

The certainly put that to bed in a dominant display.

Despite Thornton getting early goals on the board it was Yea who dictated the game after that, simply unstoppable all over the court.

The ball movement from the Tigers was slick and Thornton were left in chase mode more often than not.

Cate Garlick made a return to the court in a Tigers dress and didn't disappoint, combining in the midcourt with Cindy who was also making a cameo appearance back in AGrade.

They both moved the ball beautifully into Nikki and Sarah who shot beautifully to help the Tigers to a 15-6 lead.

After a few weeks break, Jacqui was back and replaced Cindy in the centre position.

She was everywhere in defence and attack and fired some great passes all over the court.

Meg and Megan were having great games in defence, none better than this second quarter where they kept their respective opponents to just one goal each for the quarter.

Yea put on another 13 goals to lead 28-8 at half time.

Hannah Christie started the third quarter superbly getting her hands on plenty of Thornton centre passes and rebounded the ball back into Yea’s forward.

Sarah was on fire in this quarter shooting 15 goals for the quarter and the Tigers were not going to be beaten on the day, leading 45- 14.

The only lull in the Tigers performance came in the last quarter when Thornton got four consecutive goals but the Tigers responded

With great encouragement from Nikki and Jacqui, the defenders then took control. Hannah, Meg and Megan stepped up their pressure and Thornton struggled to score again, whilst Nik and Sarah then shot out the game superbly. Well done girls.

Yea 61 def Thornton Eildon 20 Goals:S. Armstrong 45, N. Watts 16.

Best: S. Armstrong, C. Garlick, H. Christie.

Award: Megan Leatham ★ C-GRADE With Thornton having recently dropped their B-Grade side into the C-Grade competition, the Yea girls knew they would be in for a good match and it looked that way when both teams started strongly.

Both attacking ends were able to move the ball freely into their goal shooters who all started the game accurately.

Kirstie and Molly were continually moving the ball around the goal third with Jess and Kate for the best possible pass into the goal ring and this patience in attack rewarded the Tigers with a 13-8 lead at quarter time.

Thornton stepped up their defence on the Yea shooters in the second quarter and the girls didn't find it as easy to gain possession in the goal circle like they were.

Thankfully Thornton were having the same trouble at their end where Deb and Chelsea were getting their hands on plenty of incoming balls.

With Em Watts supporting them in the defensive third they were all able to read the play to perfection and make any Thorton goal a battle to get. At half time the Tigers had a handy 20-11 lead.

After 10 weeks on the sideline Loz Hearn made her return to the court, getting some match time in the C-Grade game and her influ-

ence on the game was evident.

She opened up the court with her attacking play and was able to make some great passes into Mia and Jess who had a great quarter in the goals.

Chels was having a ripper down back rebounding the ball back into Yea’s attack and continually being a backup option for the attackers.

Deb did the job on her GS, keeping her to a zero tally for the quarter.

The Tigers couldn't be matched, leading 32-14 at the last break.

The Tigers continued on their winning way in the last quarter, the only downside was an ankle injury to Molly who was playing another great game on the wing. We all hope you have a quick recovery Molly.

Yea 42 def Thornton Eildon 20 Goals: J. Armstrong 20, M. Ross 12, K. Elliott 10.

Best: K. Elliott, L. Hearn, J .Armstrong Award: Emily Watts ★ D -GRADE Thornton Eildon started the game really well against top side Yea, keeping the scores at level pegging until mid-way through the first quarter.

Jude and Jordan then started to really control the midcourt and were able to easily get the ball into goalers Kim and Molly who both worked hard to make front position. Yea lead 8-4 at quarter time.

The second quarter belonged to Yea as they controlled the possession of the ball for 80 per cent of the quarter.

Sarah and Nicola were dogged in their defensive efforts and didn't allow Thornton a goal for the quarter.

Kim shot the house down and surprised herself and the umpire when a long bomb swished through the net.

She was also on the receiving

end under the goal ring from a mighty pass from the best arm in Yea, Kakka, who passed it off from the centre circle.

Yea's efforts all over the cour rewarded them with a 16-4 half time lead.

The second half was a reasonably even affair but it was always the Tigers with the edge, through their experience and continual attack on the ball.

Sarah and Kim finished off the game well in defence, keeping Thornton to minimal attempts at goal, and they were well supported

by Kak on the goal ring, always being an option for the pass out of defence.

Jude, Jordan and Nadine all played a great last quarter with quick and precise ball movement into the goal ring and Molly played her best game of the season, showing great improvement in GS which was great to see.

Well done girls running away with the win 35-12.

Yea 35 def Thornton Eildon 12 Goals: K. Slavin 18, M. Toulson 9, Jordan Watts 8 Best: Judy Watts, Jordan Watts Molly Toulson
