ORGANISERS of the weekend’s March4Justice event against gendered and family violence shone a light on the shocking rate of this types of violence on the Mornington Peninsula. In the first six months of 2021, 817 women reported incidents of family violence to police across the peninsula, almost double the Victorian local government area average. March4Justice is a national movement pushing for equality, justice, respect, and an end to gendered violence. On Sunday, participants marched from Rosebud pier, and along the Bay trail to the Village Green, where people with slogans called out for an end to family violence and speakers and musicians inspired the crowd. Mornington Peninsula Shire councillor Sarah Race said the march was an inspirational event, with speakers including ‘Shaz’, representing the rainbow community and Marg D’Arcy speaking for senior Australians. Female musicians included Maxon, Heidi Luckhurst, Mount Martha teenager Zara MC and Sally's ukulele. Cr Race said this year's Local Champion, Geraldine Bliston, had spoken about family violence on the peninsula at the Australia Day awards ceremony and inspired the community to act.

Concern over Sound site for housing Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au NEARBY residents are opposing a plan to lease Mornington Peninsula Shire-owned land in Capel Sound for affordable housing as being in an “inappropriate” location and will cause road safety problems. The shire last December told Capel Sound residents that land behind Seawinds Community Hub - 11A Allambi Avenue - had been chosen as one of four affordable housing partnership projects to help ease the peninsula’s
housing crisis. The other sites are in Rosebud, Hastings and Mornington. However, Capel Sounds’ residents have questioned whether the location is appropriate, with concerns the nearby intersection of Wingara Drive (which already services 70 houses and units and will be the main access route to the development) and Allambi Avenue is already “dangerous”, and the project would bring an unacceptable increase in traffic and risk to pedestrians. The neighbourhood is also home to Eastbourne Primary School and longstanding issues of traffic congestion
related to school pick-up and drop-off times, and high volumes of pedestrian traffic. Veronica Madigan, who has started a Facebook page (Concerning All Residents in Capel Sound) to alert residents to the proposal, said there was also concern about plans to put a road through the primary school and Seawinds Hub, which has a lot of pedestrian traffic and a child care and kinder. Ms Madigan said residents were not opposed to the concept of affordable housing but believed the site had not been thoroughly thought out, with few details being released.
“The council wants residents to submit their thoughts on this, but they haven’t released any information, such as lot sizes, number of houses or traffic management, so how can we put in a submission?” she said. “We believe there are other options in regards to sites and traffic management, such as access from Boneo Road, that would not impact on residents. “We need more information because we have already been impacted by traffic change due to the building of the [Yawa] pool and were ignored when objections were raised.” Mrs Madigan said there were also

fears Rosebud Hospital would not be able to cope with the extra population unless it was upgraded. “I realise the need for affordable housing, but risk mitigation has to be applied to keep all existing and possibly new residents safe,” she said. The mayor Cr Anthony Marsh said the Capel Sound proposal was “in the early consultation stage and no council decision has been made yet”. He said all feedback would help inform the council’s decision-making and urged communities to “have their say”. Continued Page 11

Diving deep for inspiration THE first Mornington Peninsula Art Competition “work in progress” by students at St Joseph's Primary School, Sorrento is under way. The competition has been designed to raise awareness among students and the community on how to care for the peninsula’s marine environment and shoreline precincts. The school’s entry has been inspired by environmental advocate and past Mornington Peninsula Shire Citizen of the Year Josie Jones, known for diving for rubbish under Flinders Pier. Ms Jones was also a recipient of the local Hero Award in the Australian of the Year Awards in 2020. Sustainability leader at St Joseph's
Primary School, Jane Byrne, is encouraging the students to create a collage and to draw and paint as part of their entry into the competition. The potential removal of 180metres of a wooden section of Flinders pier has alerted the Flinders community and other community organisations across the peninsula to the importance of caring for the local marine life and coastal precincts. Renowned conservationist Sir David Attenborough brought international attention to the issue by expressing his concern for the welfare of the weedy seadragon, which lives among seabed grasses at the pier. Trish Hurley from the Save Flinders Pier committee said she was looking forward to exhibiting
selected works and the winning entries at peninsula libraries and Rosebud Plaza over the Easter school holidays. "The competition's aims complement the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council’s school’s environmental educational programs on zero waste and reducing marine and foreshore debris as well as engaging students in a variety of art, language and science activities,” she said. Students across the peninsula can participate in the competition and individual or whole class works can be entered focussing on marine ecology, environmental issues impacting the marine environment or the recreational use of the piers, jetties and other built features in their area.
Councillors’ ‘no reply’ to questions about complaints Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THREE of Mornington Peninsula Shire’s 11 councillors are willing to comment about allegations of complaints being lodged about them – and against one another – with the Local Government Inspectorate. One councillor sees the LGI as a “secret kangaroo court”, another states that he is legally limited in answering questions, while the third hoped that the election of Cr Anthony Marsh as mayor would ”shift focus from … negativity and concentrate on moving forward with a positive attitude”. Several sources have told The News that up to 15 complaints – most, if not all, subsequently withdrawn – by councillors about their colleagues have been lodged with the LGI. “There are no complaints to the Local Government Inspectorate regarding Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors,” the shire’s CEO John Baker told The News. LGI’s senior communications adviser Steve Pogonowski: “We don’t disclose the number of complaints relating to individual municipalities, on the basis that a high proportion may be unsubstantiated and provide an incomplete picture of issues and concerns around local government.” The three councillors who responded to questions about the rumoured complaints were Steve Holland, David Gill and Susan Bissinger. Those who did not respond were the mayor Anthony Marsh, Sarah Race,
Antonella Celi, Debra Mar, Kerri McCafferty, Lisa Dixon, Paul Mercurio and Despi O’Connor. Cr O’Connor, last year’s mayor, has taken leave of absence from council to seek election as an independent to the federal seat of Flinders (“Former mayor makes a run for Flinders” The News 13/12/21) “The state Labor government has created, via the Local Government Act, a secret kangaroo court,” said Cr Holland, a board member of the Victorian Local Governance Association. “This will not surprise anyone familiar with how our current state government operates. “Councillors are gagged and prevented from discussing inspectorate complaints, which remain confidential unless an arbiter or the inspectorate determines otherwise.” Cr David Gill said he had “never used the ability to lay a charge against another councillor with the Local Government Inspectorate”. “I believe that is the only question that I can legally answer because of the incredible restrictions placed on councillors by state government politicians,” he said. Cr Gill accused state MPs of hypocrisy for not applying the same “wide-ranging complaint rules and punishments” to themselves as was applied to councillors. “I believe that the complaint system should be available for use with all publicly elected positions,” he said. “The punishment for revealing further information to the public is severe and l regret that l cannot discuss
Email to councillors THE email was sent to all councillors on Wednesday 16 February: “Mornington Peninsula Shire CEO John Baker has told The News: “There are no complaints to the Local Government Inspectorate regarding Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors.” However, The News has been told by several sources that more than a dozen complaints were lodged with the LGI during the term of the current council, which started in November 2020. Have you ever lodged a complaint about another Mornington Peninsula Shire councillor with the Local Government Inspectorate? If yes, how many times have you done so? Have you ever had a complaint lodged with the Local Government Inspectorate against you by another MPS councillor? If so, how many and what were the outcomes?” your other questions.” Cr Susan Bissinger said she had never lodged a complaint with the LGI about another councillor or been notified that a complaint had been made against her by one of her colleagues. “I concur with CEO John Baker, as to the best of my knowledge there are no complaints to the Local Government Inspectorate regarding [shire] councillors,” she said. “I was really hoping that our community would see that a fresh 2022 and
the appointment of a new mayor would herald an exciting time for our shire. “We certainly feel it within the councillor group and are looking forward to making positive, tangible change that will benefit our communities in a meaningful way. “There is a lot to achieve on a local level and, by working together on the bigger items, we will be giving it our best shot to attain success. We have an energised attitude and are looking to listen and engage even more with
the communities we represent.” Cr Bissinger said she had been hoping “we could shift focus from the recent spate of negativity and concentrate on moving forward with a positive attitude” (“New mayor seeks council unity” The News 22/11/21). “There will always be issues and, possibly, unhappy and disgruntled people, but as long as the rest of us can work together and remain optimistic we can get things done, eventually.”

ELECTIONS 2022
Inquiry by AEC over Liberals’ May meal Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THERE were smiles all round at the $500 a head lunch featuring a speech by former British prime minister Theresa May as diners looked out over the greens at Peppers Moonah Links Resort, Fingal, on Sunday 13 February. The event was held to raise money for Liberal Party candidates to campaign in the Hastings and Nepean state electorates. Briony Hutton is contesting Hastings, currently held by retiring Liberal Neale Burgess. Retired tennis professional Sam Groth was last week confirmed as the party’s candidate for Nepean, now held by Labor’s Chris Brayne. One of the Nepean Liberals’ organisers said the “really pleasant local event” was attended by “about 40” people, who heard Ms May make a speech “that could have been made by a moderate Liberal”. It has been widely reported that Ms May (Lady May) – who has been a Conservative British MP since 1997, including prime minister 2016-19 – visited Flinders MP Greg Hunt at his Mount Martha home before going on to lunch at Fingal. But the lunch, which Mr Hunt did not attend, may have long-lasting repercussions as the Australian Electoral Commission has confirmed it is looking into whether money raised at events featuring Ms May are subject to a ban on foreign donations. In 2019 the Morrison government introduced new laws that state political campaigns targeting Australians cannot be paid for by foreign donors, including election advertising, campaign phone calls and how-to-vote cards. Two days after the Fingal lunch, AEC Commissioner Tom Rogers told the Senate’s Finance and Public Administration Legislation Committee that the issue was being examined and the

The successful candidate was Sam Groth. Liberal Party had been contacted. Mr Rogers made his comments during questioning by Labor Senator Don Farrell, who wrote to the AEC saying that Ms May was a foreign citizen and had previously declared receiving income from speaking engagements to the House of Commons. “If you find the arrangement between the Liberal Party and Ms May is not inconsistent with the foreign donation ban, I ask you to carefully consider the disclosure obligation that falls on the Liberal Party for the declaration of an in-kind donation by Ms May if there is a gap between fees paid by Ms May and Ms May’s standard speaking fee,” Senator Farrell stated in his letter. “Australia’s foreign donation ban must not be undermined by attempts to exploit loopholes in
legislation introduced by the Turnbull and Morrison governments.” A Liberal Party member on the peninsula told The News “I’m certain Ms May volunteered her time”. In a Facebook post, Ms Hutton, the Hastings candidate, said it had been “an honour to host” Ms May at the Moonah Links lunch. “Ms May came to show her support of the Liberal Party candidates on the Mornington Peninsula as we head into the federal and state elections this year,” she wrote. Ms Hutton did not respond to questions from The News about who arranged for Ms May to speak at the lunch or if Ms May was paid to attend. Comment was also sought from the Liberal Party’s state director, Sam McQuestin.

ship between Mornington Peninsula Shire and community members and groups that share the common goal of protecting and promoting native flora and fauna. Much of the peninsula’s flora and fauna is rare or endangered and gardens can help protect and nurture these plants and animal. Participants receive a garden habitat assessment carried out by two volunteer garden guides who visit a
property and provide simple, practical advice on increasing habitat and natural food sources for wildlife in gardens. They also get a gift voucher for 15 indigenous tube stock plants from the shire’s nursery, invitations to gardens for wildlife events and information sessions across the year.

Seafarers ready to ‘welcome aboard’ Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au CHARITY organisation Seafarers has been inundated with support following a call for help to repair storm damage to its Hastings offices. Since reaching out to the community, Seafarers Hastings branch chairman Geoff Connelly (right) said offers of assistance have come flooding, and the repairs to the building are almost complete (“Seafarers call out for help” The News 26/1/22). “I just can’t thank the people and organisations who came to our aid enough,” he said. “It’s been a wonderful show of community generosity and has allowed us to continue our work helping ship crews, and plan for the future.” Heavy rain and storms on Friday 7 January damaged the roof of the group’s Bayview Road building, causing the water-logged ceiling to collapse. The damage rendered the building uninhabitable, and the volunteers dedicated to supporting ship crews when they come into Western Port desperately called for a helping hand. Mr Connelly said the need to be ready to support new ships arriving in port meant there was an urgency in getting the building up and running again. Now, after several generous donations in the form of money and building support from other charitable organisations such as Hastings Rotary and Australian Mariner’s Welfare Society, as well as individuals and companies BlueScope Steel and Esso, the mission is just about com-
plete, and the Seafarers are back in business. “It’s so wonderful, it’s put my faith back into community helping community,” Mr Connelly said. Mr Connelly said Seafarers provided support for all sea crew, many who were on international ships, by welcoming them into the community and providing spiritual support, assistance with transport, and essential supplies in the way of a “care package”. “The crews appreciate the contact and seeing someone with a smiling face who cares about their welfare,” he said. “We have a chaplaincy program for all faiths, but sometimes it’s just the welcome and friendly hello they need.” The Hastings centre provides a recreation room with a pool table and a comfortable space for crews to relax. “Some of these crew members have been out to sea for 12 months and appreciate somewhere to be when they get time off the ship and help to get around and get what they need,” Mr Connelly said.

Mayor backs bid to ‘save’ Flinders pier MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire mayor Cr Anthony Marsh visited Flinders last week to show his support for the Save Flinders Pier campaign. Cr Marsh said that the pier was a valuable tourist attraction to and should be saved. The mayor’s comments are similar to those voiced last week by Flinders MP Greg Hunt (“Liberal support for ‘save pier’ campaign” The News 22/2/22). He also visited the cargo shed historic display, a small museum at the beginning of the pier run by volunteers. The mini museum, dedicated to
the history of the pier and its precinct, operates from a restored cargo shed owned by Parks Victoria and established with money from the state government. Flinders Community Association’s Charles Reis said it was hard to understand why the government would want to demolish the [wooden section] of the pier that the mini museum was established to celebrate. An application has been lodged with Heritage Victoria for protection of the historic pier and a decision is expected mid-year.
COMMENT
The peninsula’s biggest future issue - land use By David Gill* STRATEGIC planning for the use of land is the biggest issue facing Mornington Peninsula.. The peninsula is recognised in state planning policy as an area of significance and that there should be only moderate to low levels of housing growth. Our biggest protection to the character and liveability of the peninsula are the urban growth boundaries around our towns and villages which prohibit any reduction of green wedge-zoned land. The main planning issues that I see are: A general lack of understanding and
sympathy from the state government (politicians and bureaucrats) that the peninsula is different to metropolitan Melbourne. The shortage of land zoned for light industry which could be improved by using excess port related industrial land near Hastings. There is a drastic need to address social housing and particularly homelessness by reviewing the planning scheme. The state government has ignored this issue on the peninsula and has not even provided crisis housing for anyone, including the rising number of homeless older women. The recent rise in house prices has helped cause, along with COVID-19 pressures, a lack of availability of
casual employees in hospitality and other industries on the peninsula. The state government-controlled local planning scheme should address alternative housing for essential casual workers who can no longer afford to rent or buy on the Peninsula. The increasing use of state government introduced VicSmart planning regulations do not require neighbours (or councillors) being told of smaller developments and take away all community appeal rights. Agricultural land needs protecting as there is an increase of rural living on previously viable farmland. Recycled water should be used to drought proof the peninsula and to help safeguard it from the effects of
climate change. Urban growth boundaries need to be maintained and there should be no reduction of the green wedge areas. Land use compliance should not be arbitrary but enforced when regulations are ignored to the detriment of the environment or amenity. A lack of acknowledgment of the authorised local planning statement in planning decisions at the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) and the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP). A wildlife management plan to protect the vulnerability of the peninsula’s diminishing fauna could be a much needed first in Victoria.
The sensitive introduction of the Neighbourhood Residential Zone (C219 planning scheme amendment) to help prevent three storey developments changing the peninsula’s coastal character. No green wedge land should be used for the stabling of trains if the electrified line is extended to Hastings. Permits - and justification - should be required to remove trees from within 10 metres of houses and four metres of fences as allowed under state government bushfire prone area legislation. These rules are altering the green character of the peninsula forever. *David Gill is Mornington Peninsula Shire’s Red Hill Ward councillor.

Police patrol
With Liz Bell
Police call for help POLICE are appealing for public assistance in relation to a series of crimes around Mt Eliza between 19 and 20 February. Detectives from the Mornington Peninsula crime investigation said a number of burglaries, thefts and an assault around Koornalla Crescent, Barton Drive, Walkers Road and Kunyung Road occurred over that weekend. Between 10pm on Saturday 19 February and 2am Sunday 20 February police say a group of youths embarked on a “crime spree of offending” where they stole vehicles, took items from vehicles, attempted to gain entry to various residences in the Mount Eliza area, and assaulted a youth. Investigators believed the same offenders, believed to be teenagers, also gate crashed a beach party at Mount Eliza the same night.

Learning the hard way A LEARNER driver and accompanying supervising driver tested positive for illicit drugs after being stopped in Hastings by Somerville Highway Patrol on 19 February. The learner driver was fined for drug driving and the accompanying driver will be charged on summons to appear at court at a later date.

Police car rammed A 33-YEAR-OLD Rosebud man who allegedly rammed a police car at Capel Sound on Tuesday 22 February was arrested and taken to hospital for observation.
Police allege officers were attempting to intercept a purple Toyota Landcruiser being driven erratically on Point Nepean Road about 10.55pm. Police say the driver of the Toyota failed to navigate a left turn onto Johnson Street and crashed into a tree. He then continued travelling along Johnson Street, where police attempted to pull the car over. It is alleged the Toyota stopped before being being reversed into the police vehicle, damaging both cars. No police involved were uninjured. Anyone who witnessed the incident or has information that could assist police with their inquiries is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report online at crimestoppersvic.com.au

Police allege the male driver and female passenger dumped the car and ran. After a brief chase on foot officers arrested the pair nearby, and a search of the vehicle allegedly revealed a loaded handgun in a bag on the back seat. The woman was released pending further enquires and the man was bailed to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court on 1 July.

HASTINGS police have caught nine illegal mini bike riders and seized their bikes in and around Hastings and Crib Point. Acting Sergeant Andrew Ross said the community response to a police request for assistance had been “very welcome”, as it was “local information” that often helped solve crimes. Sergeant Ross said illegal mini bikes which were not registered or had not passed safety tests were a danger to pedestrians, other road users and their riders. Having a mini bike impounded can be expensive, with owners given 28 days to collect them from the wreckers before they are crushed. Collecting them within the 28 days still comes with fees set by the wreckers, including towing costs. Victoria Police is continuing to target illegal mini bike riders during Operation Crush, which was launched on Sunday.

Opportunities open to shop, or volunteer Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au OPPORTUNITY shops on the Mornington Peninsula need shoppers to rediscover the benefits of bargain hunting, and volunteers to come back on board to help out. Both Fusion’s Thrift op shop and the RSPCA op shop in Mornington have experienced a dramatic downturn in trade and volunteers in recent times, affecting the amount of money raised for the services they provide to the community. Fusion is a Mount Martha-based youth and community organisation that provides a housing service and runs several programs to assist socially-at-risk young people in Australia. Its op shop in Progress Street has struggled to maintain volunteer numbers since COVID, and manager Caitlin Swanton said shoppers had been hesitant to get back out shopping. “It’s been a whole combination of everything, including COVID, plus we opened right in the middle of the pandemic, in 2021, so we haven’t really seen what a ‘normal’ summer should be here,” Ms Swanton said. “In that short time, we have experienced a shortage of volunteers, community hesitancy, staffing difficulties and lockdowns,” she said. “So, we’d like to say to the community, come back and grab a bargain, because we have amazing things here, and to volunteers I’d say come and discover the rewards of being back in the community and being a fun, friendly environment.” DECKING T/Pine 70x22 KD ACQ ........................... $3.50mt T/Pine 90x22 KD ACQ ........................... $4.40mt Merbau 70x19 Random ........................ $5.25mt Merbau 90x19 Random ........................ $6.95mt Merbau 140x22 Random .................... $13.25mt Spotted Gum 86x19 .............................. $9.95mt Spotted Gum 135x19........................... $17.95mt

Final days: The manna gum in Balnarring Road, Balnarring that Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors has decided must go. Pictures: Yanni
No second reprieve for manna gum Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au RESIDENTS’ battle to save a manna gum overhanging a road in Balnarring has been lost. Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors have given the go ahead for the tree to axed because it is too close to the road and the legal liability it would face if the tree fell. The decision at council’s 22 February meeting was the second time the tree had been ordered to be felled after officers were told in November to look for other ways to manage “the hazardous manna gum” in Balnarring Road.
A follow-up report on 22 February by principal transport engineer Doug Bradbrook stated that the original (November) “recommendation remains to remove the tree from the road reserve”. Mr Bradbrook said the alternative to chopping down the tree - diverting the road and speed reduction measures - would cost about $150,000. An $810,000 package of “traffic safety treatments and footpath links” had also been developed, although no money had been budgeted for either option. Although he gave no cost estimate of removing the tree, Mr Bradbrook said it could be paid for from the current budget. “The identified road safety risk [of the manna

gum] cannot remain unmitigated, and action must take place as soon as possible,” Mr Bradbrook said. The “background” section of Mr Bradbrook’s report said bus operators had raised concerns about being forced to drive on the other side of the road to avoid hitting the tree’s overhanging branches. He said an “arboreal inspection confirmed that the mature street tree has a natural formation that extends over the road carriageway”. The shire was obligated “to promote a safe and efficient local road network… [which included] a clear envelope 3.75 metres” above the road. Mr Bradbrook said pruning was not viable.
A move by Cr Debra Mar (seconded by Cr David Gill) to divert both the road and “budget and staff resourcing from existing projects to enable this to commence this financial year” was not supported by Crs Antonella Celi, Sarah Race, Susan Bissinger, Paul Mercurio, Lisa Dixon and Anthony Marsh. Council - with Crs Mar, Gill and Bissinger opposed - then agreed to remove the tree and find an “appropriate” place to place its trunk “for habitat purposes”; investigate where to plant new street trees nearby; offer free indigenous trees to “urban” Balnarring Beach residents; and donate the foliage from the manna gum to a wildlife shelter.
Memories outlive garden strangled by red tape Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au BALNARRING’S Wattle Court residents are mourning the loss of much-loved neighbour Helen, one of the earliest recipients of a COVIDinspired community food garden that provided meals for elderly neighbours in the street. Founded by Greg Merlo and his wife Anna, the community food garden was forced to close last year by Mornington Peninsula Shire Council red tape, but the passing of his friend and neighbour has reminded Mr Merlo of the importance of friendship and community. Before the garden had to be removed from public land at the end of Wattle Court, Greg and Anna Merlo twice a week cooked up pasta for up to 10 of their mainly elderly neighbours from the Wattle Court garden’s harvest. “It was something that drew the community together,” Mr Merlo said, who before his retirement was principal of Westpark Primary School, Hastings. At the time the garden came to an end, the shire’s community safety and compliance manager Shannon Maynard acknowledged the Merlos grew the fruit and vegetables with the “best intentions” but that “concerns … had been raised by several nearby residents” and the location was seen as being inappropriate. Mr Merlo has written the following tribute to Helen – whose last name he never knew – to remind people that
Combined harvesters: Wattle Court, Balnarring gardeners John McKenzie, Meg Merton, Mary Cain and Greg Merlo, who has written a tribute to their former neighbour Helen. Picture: Yanni looking after neighbours and community is what matters most: “Helen, a kind caring person who lived alone, she was in her late 80s, and was from a wonderful large family who always called in. She was loved by her neighbours. Helen loved figs, so I planted a fig tree on her verge. During COVID 2020 Helen received at least one cooked meal a week from our garden produce. She was also provided with veggies as needed.
Helen enjoyed figs from her tree for five years. She was always delighted and appreciative of meals and fresh veggies. It was our pleasure to receive Helen’s thanks. Helen passed away last week. Wattle Court is sad. We will miss Helen’s kindness and care for community. She was chief organiser for our court Christmas barbecue. My first thought was our garden is not important. We have lost a loved neighbour. We won’t have Helen back.

But no, garden is important. Our community can take some comfort in the thought our garden provided Helen with some “sunshine” in these difficult COVID times. But this garden wasn’t about tomatoes, broccoli, cucumbers or zucchini. It was a place that brought people together. Our garden created community. It’s time our shire encouraged, promoted and devised ways for gardens like ours to flourish. It’s called making community.”
Sound housing Continued from Page 1 Cr Marsh said the primary responsibility for the provision of social and affordable housing – and finance – lay with the state government, but that council would advocate to ensure that “a proper investment is made in social and affordable housing across the peninsula”. “In the meantime, we are acting on our Triple A Housing Plan 2020-2030 and the community vision by proposing to use council land for housing partnership projects to support affordable housing,” he said. “At this stage of the process, we are seeking the community’s feedback around their views on affordable housing, the proposed model and important site-specific considerations.” Cr Marsh said the lack of affordable housing was a “critical challenge” for the peninsula, and the number of people on the social housing waiting list was growing, with half of them assessed as having a priority need. “We’ve heard stories from the community about pensioners sleeping in their cars, families having to leave their communities due to a lack of affordable rentals, and businesses struggling due to a lack of affordable accommodation for workers,” he said. The 2016 census estimated that 2346 households (3.8 per cent of all households) on the peninsula needed affordable housing and 11.7 per cent were in housing stress, and expectations that things will worsen as house prices rise. Australian Bureau of Statistics date also show the peninsula is the sixth worst Victorian municipality for people rough sleeping. Submissions close 14 March.

Racing to find Stoke THE second In Search of Stoke female gravity enduro event will be held at Red Hill on 23 and 24 April. Last year’s mountain bike race attracted more than 100 entrants and was the first event of its kind in Victoria. Gravity enduro mountain biking where the downhill segment is timed, and participants have to ride back up the hill each time in between downhill segments - and downhill mountain biking, are historically heavily maledominated sports. Organiser Kathryn Visser said the event seeks to address these barriers by creating an all-female, super welcoming and inclusive environment to
demystify the race scene for women and help them to build friendships, networks, community and experience. She hopes this year’s event will be a bigger and better than in 2021, with Saturday featuring a race for the “fellas and kids” so the whole family can join in, and Sunday featuring the women's race. “The atmosphere of last year's race was fantastic, with many partners. kids, families and friends coming along to cheer and support the participants,” she said. The event is put on in conjunction with Red Hill Riders (the Red Hill MTB club). Liz Bell
THE likelihood of development is again looming over a former water reservoir in Kunyung Road, Mount Eliza, six years after it was decommissioned by South East Water and referred to the state government as “surplus” land. At that time there was a community backlash against proposals to sell the land for housing and the matter was stalled. A government spokesperson confirmed the Department of Treasury and Finance was now considering the land for alternate use and sale options. However, other government entities would have first right of refusal before any public sale process. Mornington Peninsula Shire Council can also express its interest to buy the site “for a community use”. The spokesperson said that as standard practice any proposed rezoning, if needed, would go through the Department of Environment Land Water and Planning. The 2.8-hectare site ceased operating as a water reservoir in 1999, and at one stage there were rumours that the buyer of the neighbouring Moondah estate in Kunyung Rd – Ryman Healthcare – was interested in acquiring it.
NO ONE’S UNSINKABLE To all those Unsinkable Guys out there – You might think it’s safe to have a few drinks around water, skip the lifejacket when you’re out on the boat or go for a swim without checking the conditions. But statistics prove that 4 out of 5 drownings are men. Just remember that no one’s unsinkable.

Mount Eliza residents say they are ready to fight for the land to be preserved for either community or environmental use and argue that open space is even more relevant to community wellbeing than ever. South East Water managing director Lara Olsen last week said it was a matter for the state government which had determined that most of the site, except for a small pump station, should be made available for an alternative use. “We always appreciate the input from the community on areas that concern them or our services and assets,” she said. “We know that the use of this land has been raised by the community for several years. “We encourage the community to take part in any consultation, so their views are heard and understood.” South Eastern Centre for Sustainability president Steve Karakitsos, who led the fight to protect the land in 2015, said the community would not be silent and was ready to fight again to ensure the land was preserved for its environmental importance and its community value. Mount Eliza resident and mental health advocate Mary Ellen Smith said communities were looking for more opportunities to connect with the natural world, after three years of
COVID the effects of climate change, and there was a realisation that natural surroundings need to be accessible to people in order to provide emotional and physical sustenance when needed. She said the “spectacular natural environment” of 57 Kunyung Road could be lost forever if development was allowed, and that it was a significant source of learning for local school children, and a haven for the community. “We need to protect these green areas both for nature’s sake, and for the sake of the community, so that people can visit and savour the beauty it has to offer,” Ms Smith said. Ms Smith suggested it could become part of a larger national park incorporating 60-70 Kunyung Road, which is owned by Ryman Healthcare, whose proposal to build a large aged care centre was rejected at the Victorian Civil and Administrative Appeals Tribunal last year. The land at 57 Kunyung Road is currently subject to a vegetation protection overlay, which recognises it as an important area of habitat and habitat corridors, assisting soil stability, reducing the intensity of stormwater runoff and limiting the erosion and siltation of streamlines. Mornington Peninsula Shire Council was contacted for comment.
Siblings set their own screen tests Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au BROTHER and sister filmmakers Stephany and Julian Avila want to pitch their Mornington Peninsula-based mockumentary/comedy web series to film industry heavyweights and further develop the series. The Avilas, actors from Mount Eliza and Frankston South, have worked on many films and pilots together and have just finished a pilot episode for a national screen competition being run by Screen Forever and Tik Tok. Stephany Avila, who has been acting since she was four, and has featured in Australian television programs, said her and her brother Julian’s series Aussie Spirit revolved around Australian ghosts and the households they haunt. The siblings have spent years working on pilots and productions together but admit the Got a Minute? competition was a challenge, as each entry must have 10 one-minute episodes. Ms Avila said the competition’s format highlighted the power and potential of short-form content and was a way for filmmakers to build on their storytelling skills. The 31-year-old mother of two, who writes, produces and coordinates the siblings’ filming productions and runs her film and television acting studio on the peninsula, began her career as a child actor in Australian television programs Neighbours and Holly’s Heroes, and films including Crimes of the Heart and I Love You Too. She said acting backgrounds helped her and Julian “see dialogue and plot” and understand what was realistic and what captured the audience. Mr Avila is also a 26-year-old actor and filmmaker, and together the pair share a passion for the screen industry and a desire to build on their

Picture: Supplied screen careers. “This symbiosis we have as siblings also lets us create films that hope to evoke emotion and inspire those that happen to watch,” he said. “It is so important for filmmakers and actors as well to produce their own content and enter these into competitions. Your stories and your creativity are yours, why not share it with the world?"
Ms Avila said the key to producing films was to be “organised, ask for advice from industry professionals, trust your creativity and put your work out there for the public to see”. Finalists in the competition get the chance to fly to Queensland and pitch their concept to a panel of film industry professionals, with the winner receiving $25,000 to help in the production of their 10 part web series.
Backing for cinemas THREE Mornington Peninsula cinemas will share in $130,000 of federal government money to support the recovery of the arts and entertainment sector after three years of COVID-related disruptions to operations. Peninsula Cinemas Rosebud and Sorrento, as well as the Dromana 3 Drive-in, received between $35,000 and $60,000 each under the second round of the $20 million Supporting Cinemas’ Retention Endurance and Enhancement of Neighbourhoods (SCREEN) fund. Dromana 3 Drive-In owner Paul Whitaker said the drive-in had weathered the “perfect storm” of difficult times and was grateful for the support. “COVID-19 has seen us under mandatory lockdowns of more than 300 nights then, during the periods when we were able to operate, increased demand along with staff shortages,” he said. “The SCREEN fund grant will help to secure the business into the future, employing more staff (when available), upgrading technology and long-awaited repairs to infrastructure. “The association with Screen Australia through the SCREEN fund will make the presentation of many more Australian Made movies a reality.” Mr Whitaker said he believed 2022 was going to be a great year for the cinemas, with restrictions over and his drive-in’s 60th anniversary fast approaching. He said there would be a community celebration on 21 December to mark the occasion. Flinders MP Greg Hunt said the money would allow independent cinema owners to keep their projectors rolling COVID-safely. “Local independent cinemas are key parts of our community, bringing friends, family and partners together for so many years,” he said. “Local places like the Dromana 3 Drive-In and Peninsula Cinemas have a history of entertaining locals for decades and it’s important that they haven’t been left behind in the COVID-19 pandemic.”

ON THE COVER
THE PENINSULA’S FINEST NATURAL SERENITY IN AN UNRIVALLED LOCATION. BASK in the seclusion this exclusive address provides on an almost unrivalled 1.03-hectare block nestled between Port Phillip Bay and Bass Strait. This grand coastal charmer unites with the undulating landscape to present a handsome ranch style home that delivers everything you will require for a tranquil lifestyle by the beach. The property is framed by secure gated access that reveals the meandering crushed stone driveway that weaves up past the home to a large double garage, then onto a superb four bay parking structure for boats, caravans and trailers. The welcoming interior showcases a thoughtful open plan design highlighted by free-flowing living areas with a strong emphasis on space.
This is a big house. Two distinct wings effortlessly work together to provide comfortable dining and family areas anchored by a splendid kitchen with sleek stone bench tops, stainless-steel appliances and there is a handy servery window out to the entertaining deck. There is one bedroom at this end of the house and a separate study with bespoke built-in desks has its own private entry. To the south wing is an enormous lounge room with beautiful corner wood heater set onto a sandstone hearth and polished timber floors that positively gleam under the downlights dotted around the ceiling. The equally spacious master bedroom has a walkthrough robe and a separate ensuite with spa and double
vanity, whilst a third bedroom for guests also has an ensuite and walk-in robe. Captured as if an ever-changing artwork, the breathtaking surrounds and stunning peripheral garden view that pours in through the walls of windows and glass sliders breathe love and light into a cool, neutral palette. Externally, the property comprises a spacious wrap-around verandah with generous undercover alfresco and outdoor spa and the delightful gardens that envelop the home, provide tranquil spaces to sit, relax and enjoy the coastal beauty. There is also an impressive array of outbuildings, most notably the huge industrial shed with 3-phase power, mezzanine office and car hoist.n

The Guide TOP PICKS OF THE WEEK
SUNDAY
DANCING WITH THE STARS: ALL STARS
SATURDAY
SEVEN, 7pm
THE YOUNG VICTORIA
SBS, 11.20pm
Emily Blunt (left) does a grand job in her leading lady debut as Britain’s monarch, Queen Victoria. The lush biopic focuses on the conflicts between teen Victoria, her overbearing mother, the Duchess of Kent (Miranda Richardson), her mother’s adviser Sir John Conroy (Mark Strong) and Prime Minister Lord Melbourne (Paul Bettany). But when Victoria becomes queen in 1837, her courtship with Prince Albert (Rupert Friend) draws her focus towards simpler desires.
MONDAY
DERRY GIRLS
SBS VICELAND, 9.25pm
The uproarious and terrible trials of teenagers is the backbone of this irreverent comedy, but Derry Girls isn’t your standard teen farce. Set in ’90s Northern Ireland during the Troubles, its unique female perspective is what made it a critical success in Europe. In this double episode, the Quinn family causes uproar at a family wedding. Later, Erin (Saoirse-Monica Jackson, right), Clare (Nicola Mary Coughlan) and co are in a tizzy about seeing Take That in Belfast.
FRIDAY
VAN DER VALK
ABC TV, 8.30pm
Based on the much-loved series that ran from 1972-1992, this re-imagining doesn’t try to rewrite the original. In fact, much to many fans’ chagrin, it doesn’t even feature the original theme song, which was so popular that it arrived at #1 on the UK music charts in 1973. Starring Marc Warren as the titular detective, he’s the typically cynical law enforcement worker that we’ve all come to expect from British crime dramas. Mercifully, the movie-length plots of Van Der Valk are sophisticated, with this finale no exception. In “Payback in Amsterdam”, Van Der Valk dives into Amsterdam’s classical music scene.
There’s no denying the dynamic formula of having former dancers as the judges and one of the hosts of this series, as well as a legend in entertainment TV: Daryl Somers. As the host of Hey Hey It’s Saturday for almost 30 years, he’s an old hand at making the audience feel at home. Along with cohost Sonia Kruger (Strictly Ballroom), they are a formidable team. Tonight, group one, including Grant Denyer, Bridie Carter and Kylie Gillies, returns to the floor to impress judges Todd McKenney, Paul Mercurio, Helen Richey and Mark Wilson, with one celebrity dedicating their Viennese waltz to his family. Sonia Kruger hosts Dancing With The Stars: All Stars

WHAT’S NEW...
The Mornington Great Outdoor and 4x4 Expo The Great Outdoor Expo’s Exhibition Manager, Richard Hiscock, has some great advice for all caravan and camping enthusiasts. Mr Hiscock says “if you are considering taking time to explore Australia’s great outdoors, then buying your own caravan, Motorhome or camper trailer is a great option”. However, when you look at the size and the extent of the options available, it’s easy to get a bit confused and overwhelmed. By asking yourself these questions, you will be guided to choosing something that’s right for you. What do you intend to do with it? Don’t just think about the first trip, plan forward a couple of years; will your caravan/camper/motorhome be mainly used for weekend escapes? Is it for family holidays with the kids? Is it for the fulfilment of a lifelong dream – the trip around Australia that may take months or even years to complete? The purpose will determine whether it be a caravan, motorhome or camper trailer and the size and configuration that is required. How are you going to tow the caravan or camper trailer? You need to check the tow capacity of your current vehicle as this will set a maximum weight for your dream caravan or camper trailer. Just because you have a tow bar does not mean you can tow anything you like – please check what the tow bar is rated for.
The Great Outdoor and 4x4 Expo is running over March 10 – 13 at Mornington Racecourse. Image: supplied
The bottom line New buyers are sometimes astonished by what they consider to be the high price of today’s caravans and camper trailers, but they have always kept in step with inflation. When you look carefully at the improvements in design, technology and the excellent modern materials and accessories used in today’s models, you will see that most of them represent real value for money. Overall, what you get is what you pay for, but the caravan industry today is competitive enough
New or used? New caravans, motorhomes and campers offer all the benefits, safety features and comforts of recent design advancements, including independent rear suspension and durable, light weight construction material. Buying new also gives you the choice to “custom build” the layout of your caravan to suit your needs. If you choose to buy a used caravan, motorhome or camper trailer always buy from a licensed dealer. This is the only way to guarantee clear title on what you are buying.
for a little shopping around to be worthwhile. Caravan, motorhomes and camping expo’s, where manufacturers and dealers are all together in one place can offer impressive discounts and “show specials”. By visiting The Mornington Great Outdoor and 4x4 Expo, hopefully this will help you to decide on what type of caravan, motorhome, or camper trailer you need, and help you make an informed decision.
We look forward to seeing you all at The Mornington Great Outdoor and 4x4 Expo at Mornington Racecourse – Racecourse Rd Mornington. Open: Thursday 10th of March 11am – 5pm, Friday 11th of March - 10.00am – 5.00pm, Saturday 12th of March 10.00am -5.00pm, and Sunday 13th of March 10.00am – 4.00pm.

Labor’s Hastings candidate crosses party lines over train I have been advocating for the Frankston rail extension to the Victorian government for two years, working closely with the committees for Mornington Peninsula and Greater Frankston. The Andrews Labor government has wasted four years ignoring this important public transport infrastructure project, despite calls from the community for better train services for Mornington Peninsula and Langwarrin residents. That’s why I was interested to read recent comments by the Labor candidate for Hastings, Paul Mercurio, in support of extending the Frankston line to Langwarrin and calling for a Mornington Peninsula Shire Council advocacy campaign (“All aboard - Shire’s call on electric train” The News 22/2/22). This break from the established Labor Party line is surprising, as the Andrews Labor government has been the only major political party staunchly uncommitted to this project. I wonder if Cr Mercurio is aware that his position is in stark contrast to the position of [the Premier] Daniel Andrews to improve public transport services for Mornington Peninsula and Langwarrin residents. The [federal] Morrison government committed $225 million in 2018, secured by former Dunkley MP and now Liberal candidate for Mornington, Chris Crewther, and the Matthew Guy Victorian opposition matched that funding commitment. I’m continuing to fight for this important public transport infrastructure project to improve train services for residents of Langwarrin and the peninsula. Has the Victorian government’s position on the extension on the Frankston rail extension changed, or is the Labor candidate for Hastings crossing party lines? Briony Hutton, Liberal candidate for Hastings
On track to the past Your excellent article sparked a number of wonderful memories from the “olden days”, in this instance, the 1970s (“All aboard - Shire’s call on electric train” The News 22/2/22). At that time, Sally and I lived in Mornington with our two very young kids. As occurs in almost every “very young kids” family situation, keeping the children occupied was a major part of the daily routine. At that time, Frankston was connected to both Mornington and Hastings by train, with several services each day. The usual drivers on these lines were Eddy Stanley and Brian Higgins, both really good blokes who knew many of the passengers by their first names. When journeying, passengers enjoyed an atmosphere of informality mixed with timetable efficiency. There were some occasions when the train was almost empty. I remember one such trip in particular when one of my kids, then about five years old, was invited by the driver to have a go at driving the train. With the real driver standing beside him, the novice drove the train from Mornington to Baxter. I will never forget the looks on the faces of those waiting to board at Baxter as the train slowed to a stop, the apparent driver’s mop of curly blonde hair somewhat of a change from the usual. Clive Alsop, Mount Martha
Reason revealed An angry letter points out that the Sunnyside [beach, Mount Eliza] optional clothing beach is not in my electorate and therefore he recommends I don’t get involved (“Some issues for MP and mayor to avoid” Letters 22/2/22). But as the actual MP for Mornington has decided to remain silent on this issue, alongside many other issues over the past 15 years, who else will speak up for it? Surely the Member for Mornington should provide an opinion on it either way. The letter also asked about the Jetty Road [Rosebud] overpass, reminding readers that at the 2019 federal election [Flinders MP] Greg Hunt made a promise on the overpass. We expect this to be honoured, and the money to be delivered.

Southern Peninsula News 2 March 2022
Fortunately, as part of their election promise, the money for the pedestrian works at Jetty Road has been received, with these works beginning soon. Chris Brayne, MP for Nepean
Pool of disappointment I was born in Crib Point in 1936 and for a large part of my 86 years have been a volunteer on many sporting organisations and foreshore committees. This brings me to writing this letter about the condition of the Crib Point pool. I am disappointed our lovely pool has been out of action all summer and needs repairs now. Come on Mornington Peninsula Shire council ors. Marg Holmes, Crib Point
Kangaroos for profit There were once pubs, shops and service stations all along Beach Road through bayside Melbourne. Due to increased land value they all became houses or apartments. Today, the Mornington Peninsula is going through a similar change. A four hectare property valued at $3 million to $5 million will not be viable for the farmer that plans to have six cows. In a bumper season the farm might make $10,000, which will mean it would take over 100 years to pay back the outlay. No one would consider this as a viable investment, but that doesn’t stop landowners “developing” their land. They first buy a bulldozer, then clear the bush, put on livestock or plant vines, erect kangaroo exclusion fencing or shoot kangaroos. If you are lucky enough to own land and enjoy fauna then consider an alternative to the bulldozer option. Revegetate and enjoy your land. You can earn more money from carbon credit schemes than from six cows. Remnant land is becoming rare and, in real estate terms, rare means money. I predict that in 10 years a kangaroo might add $100,000 of value of your land, if you have a mob of 10 then your property will increase by $1,000,000. In contrast the Victorian government bounty to slaughter our native kangaroo is under $50 a head. The past couple of years, with Melbourne the most locked down city in the world, reinforced to me that the lifestyle change is underway. Young families wishing to work from home but be close to the city. Raising their family near the beach and bush and blending urban and country lifestyles. The peninsula is in a great position to capitalise on these changes. The cash register is singing a greener tune, so let’s start dancing to it. Mary Waterman, Arthurs Seat
Hidden agenda This week we have yet another exercise in procrastination and prevarication from officialdom about the captive kangaroos (“Team ready to leap into action for kangaroos” The News 22/2/22). Why is it so difficult to just open a gate or temporarily remove a section of fence? There is some inconsistency about the abolition of the permit to cull. Was it cancelled by the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning or was it surrendered voluntarily by the land owner/manager? It can’t be both. I have an uneasy feeling that there is a hidden agenda in this to open the way for another foray into culling just like the department did about 10 years ago at Hattah Lakes National Park. On that occasion a planned cull was delayed by court proceedings launched by animal rights groups. During the hiatus, the department moved in a group of professional shooters and shot about 20,000 kangaroos on the pretext that they were eating themselves out of house and home and needed to be saved from themselves. The carcasses were left to rot. Given that we are now in the driest time of the year I get the feeling that the department and the
land manager have their heads together waiting for the right time and miraculously, one weekend, there will be a lot of kangaroos shot dead at the behest of the department to save them from starving to death. If there is some public serpent [sic] who denies the validity of this theory, then let the vigilante group take control and return the kangaroos to their rightful home. Barry Rumpf, McCrae
Resign to stand This is the auto response to an email sent to Cr Despi O’Connor 6.26am Sunday 13 February: ”Thanks for contacting me. I am currently taking a leave of absence from council duties and will return the day after the federal election polling day.” Who is representing the people in Briars Ward now that one of their councillors is no longer there for them in pursuit of a loftier political agenda? No worries if she doesn’t get elected [as an independent in Flinders], she will be back, as she left that door open by taking leave of absence. There is allegedly another councillor from another ward spending a fair amount of time working for Despi. So that means that Briars Ward representation is at 66 per cent capacity and the other ward representation might be at 75 per cent. Hopefully, in the future we will have councillors who draft the councillor rules will insure that any one deciding to not represent the people they were elected by, or who spend their time supporting political candidates, must resign so we can have a by-election to put someone in office who cares about the Mornington Peninsula, not furthering their political career. At least Despi took a leave of absence. Cr Paul Mercurio (100 per cent representation for Watson Ward) reveals why he doesn’t want to be considered a “politician” after being confirmed as the Labor candidate for Hastings yet accepts the nomination and does not even take a leave of absence. Could we wonder if Watson Ward now has zero per cent representation? Oh well, one worries if the only item on the council agenda will be the Tyabb airport issue. John Cain, McCrae
Smear campaign During the last sitting week of the federal parliament, we witnessed the unedifying spectacle of the prime minister, the treasurer and the defence minister launching vitriolic personal attacks on the leader of the opposition and his deputy, including the suggestion that the deputy leader is the “Manchurian candidate”, implying he is a brain-washed agent of a foreign power, presumably China. This suggestion is ludicrous. However, it does indicate how the coalition will conduct the forthcoming federal campaign. Governments seeking re-election usually run on their record. That the coalition is not doing this is instructive but not surprising. The reason it is not surprising is that it is a very poor record. The following examples among others can be cited: A prime minister who holidays in Hawaii while Australia burns with thousands of properties lost and several deaths. A response to COVID-19 characterised by complacency and hubris. A failure to establish a federal integrity commission ensuring that such things as sports rorts and car park rorts will never be thoroughly investigated and responsible politicians never held to account. A response to climate change, the greatest existential challenge to our current way of life, which is half-hearted and completely inadequate. A job keeper program which saved many jobs but was so poorly designed that billions of dollars went to companies that actually increased their turnover and had no need of the taxpayer money they received. Perhaps the coalition has concluded that personal smear is the only viable path to re-election. It would be unfortunate for Australian democracy if this turns out to be the case. Geoff Hilton, Mount Martha
Overseas influencers The federal coalition is making an incredible amount of noise about China interfering with and trying to influence our coming federal
election. If credible, this would be negligible to slightly bad. However, a government properly elected by the Australian people was dismissed from power altogether in 1975, by the Queen of England. I considered this political act abhorrent. Madeline Albright, then US Secretary of State, visited Australia in 1998, two months prior to a federal election. I distinctly recall being offended and insulted as an Australian when she publicly said that the US would not like to see Pauline Hansons’ One Nation party getting a parliamentary seat. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has just conferred with our government three months prior to a federal election. To verbally give advice and instructions; to ensure they are both singing from the same hymn book? Brian A Mitchelson, Mornington
Unmask children I asked my eight-year-old son how he was finding wearing a mask at school for hours each day. “It’s Hell,” he replied. “It’s uncomfortable and it gets really hot and sweaty.” So, why is the Victorian Labor government doing this to our kids, given the vast majority of children have mild, or even zero, symptoms from Omicron? This is even more shocking when you consider that from Friday 25 February adults can go into busy bars and pubs without them. Of course, children who are in a vulnerable health situation can continue to wear masks if advised. But, please after suffering through nearly a year of at-home learning, can we now give our kids back the normal childhood that we all enjoyed? They have gone through enough. John Anderson, Mount Martha
‘Freedom’ in context The evils of war experienced by people in the Dutch colony of Indonesia, at the hands of the Japanese during World War II makes one really think about loss of freedom (“War is over, but memories remain” The News 15/2/22). So many people over the past two years have said they have lost their freedom because they have had to wear a mask; they could only drive five kilometres from their home; they could not party; or they had to get a jab, to name a few. When one reads the article one gets a wake-up call about what is freedom and how lucky we are, despite our deprivation of some minor pleasures. Geoffrey Lane, Mornington
Law unenforcement Frankly, I am tired of driving around the Mornington Peninsula looking for businesses that do not have their premises identified properly and do not adhere to Mornington Peninsula Shire’s Local Law No 5 (2005) Part 3, Section 17 which states: The owner of each property that has been allotted a property number under this law must mark the property with the number allotted. When can I expect the shire to enforce this law, especially for commercial enterprises? If it is going to do nothing, why have the law? Reply: “Thank you for your query regarding the enforcement of Clause 31 of the General Purposes Local Law 2012 (Local Law) that requires property owners or occupiers to mark their properties with a number allocated by council: Street numbers are important for property identification purposes, particularly for police, fire, ambulance and SES to locate and access a property in an emergency situation. While the numbering of properties is required by the local law, officers rely on voluntary compliance of owners/occupiers. The shire does not have the resources to actively enforce this particular requirement of the local law. That said, all requirements of a local law should be enforced in a consistent manner. As such, as part of the review process of the local law that is currently underway, officers will reconsider whether this clause should be included in the new local law that will come into effect in October 2022. Thank you for raising this matter with us – I trust that the above information will be of assistance. Kind regards.” Reply to reply: Could you please provide a list of other local laws that are not enforced, I have a few I would like to break? Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach

Finally, relief from your hip pain DOES this describe YOU? • You get hip pain laying on your side in bed, and just can’t get to sleep. • You place a pillow between your legs to help you get to sleep but laying on the painful side is still waking you. • You find yourself standing on one leg with your other hip hanging lower, or you sitting with crossed legs causes the pain • You are a runner worried your hip pain will get worse and stop you from exercising. If so then read on. The pain on the outside of the hip can be due to inflammation of the gluteal tendon, of Gluteus Medius and Minimus, where the gluteal muscles attach. It can also be where a bursa (a fat pad called the trochanteric bursa) can become inflamed. The hip pain may be associated with a stiff back. Physiotherapist Mark Charalambous, says that it is an injury affected by hip weakness and postural habits that place the tendons under stress. It requires a full analysis of the hip and lower limb, looking from the foot to the back biomechanics. It can require massage, and specific strengthening exercises for the gluteal muscles as well as improving core stability to control pelvic movement. In addition to the above solutions, there is a recent healing technology that is making a profound difference to outside of the hip pain sufferers. Practice owner, Paul Rowson says
Physiotherapist, Mark Charalambous “Shockwave Therapy is often useful, because the gluteal tendons are a connective tissue, not a muscle. It puts a significant shockwave through the tissues you apply it to. It is a pressure wave which brings blood flow to the area. Tendons and connective tissue do not have much blood supply and can take a long time to heal. Shockwave artificially stimulates the healing of the tendon.” Shockwave therapy can also be used on Achilles tendonitis, Plantar Fasciitis, golfer’s and tennis elbow, and rotator cuff tendon problems,
and is usually most effective on long term chronic problems, rather than acute injuries. Shockwave is not the first line of treatment for injured patients. Physiotherapy and graded exercise are more likely in the first instance. But for more stubborn conditions, shockwave has shown good results. “The evidence at the moment suggests between three to five treatments are required, but most people should see an improvement within three sessions. It has a success rate up to 90%” Mark says. The Shockwave therapy is administered for a three-minute period
to the affected area during consecutive weekly appointments. “It is a bit of an uncomfortable sensation” Mark says, “like most physio hands-on treatments, with a little discomfort during the treatment.” Paul says, “After each session, most people get a significant reduction of pain and symptoms. Long term it stimulates healing, short term it reduces pain. The best thing is, the effects are long lasting. It prevents a lot of people having more invasive things like surgery or injections. The treatment is considered safe, but can produce skin reddening or bruising, short term pain, and cannot
be used on people taking blood thinning medications or with bleeding disorders. “ “It is important to know that Shockwave has a long-term effect. Most of the time you have good outcomes, without having to have further treatments.” Shockwave is now available in Balnarring.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES
Attack of the Feral Yellow Peril Billboard By Stuart McCullough IT feels… kinda personal. Right at the end of my street is a gigantic yellow billboard that’s so huge, it nearly blocks out the sun. I see it every single time I leave the house. Like one of those creepy portraits in a mystery film whose eyes follow you around the room, I feel like it’s watching every move I make. In that sense, it reminds me of that Police song – ‘Do do do, da da da’. And just like that Police song, it’s an assault on the senses that makes me feel slightly ill. In bold lettering, the billboard screams ‘FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM’. I’ve no idea why. I mean, as words go ‘freedom’ is as good as any but that still doesn’t account for why it’s printed three times. Perhaps the author wracked their brains for weeks to come up with a buzzword that would electrify the nation. Having landed on the word ‘freedom’, the author was then stunned to learn that it would only take up a third of the headline space and was pushed into one of those hurried, last minute decisions that usually sees me panic and order the ‘large’ version of the three-piece box at KFC when the ‘regular’ size will more than suffice. Stricken with dread whilst standing at the front counter of the billboard shop as a queue of increasingly cranky strangers continues to grow and threatens to push through the door, the author panicked. Instead of coming up with three different words with a view to developing something meaningful, he instead ordered the same word three times over. Granted, it fills the space, even if ‘freedom’ cubed would have been far more economical and direct.
Perhaps it’s a tribute to the late, great Aretha Franklin. As anyone who’s ever seen ‘The Blues Brothers’ can attest, ‘Freedom’ is one of her greatest songs and the chorus involves belting out the word over and over again. Personally,
if I had to choose an Aretha song for a billboard, I’d have gone for ‘(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman’. Granted, it’s a lot of words for one billboard, but it’s a pretty terrific song. With any luck, it’s the first of a se-
ries of billboards, each one highlighting classic song lyrics. Some billboards will ask the tough questions. I dare say few of us can confidently answer the question ‘Why do birds suddenly appear, every time you are near?’ It’s a query best left unanswered, although if the birds are seagulls, then the object of the song probably smells like a chip. Some billboards will be informative – ‘I’ve got a brand new pair of roller skates, you’ve got a brand new key.’ Others, simply mystifying. I, for one, look forward to the day when a big yellow billboard appears near my house that reads ‘Awopbopaloopa Awopbamboom’. Come to think of it, Aretha sings the word ‘freedom’ four times in the chorus of that song, rather than the measly three on the billboard. I’m beginning to suspect the author may not be that familiar with the works of Aretha Franklin at all. Perhaps these aren’t song lyrics at all but something more sinister. But if it’s not a tribute to the First Lady of Soul, what message is the billboard trying to convey? Maybe there is no message. Perhaps ‘FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM’ is an entirely random piece of verbiage that’s been haphazardly thrown up on a billboard to distract commuters from using their indicators when changing lanes. It may well be that any three words would have sufficed. In a way, I’d prefer it if the giant billboard near my house screamed ‘HOTDOGS CHICKEN PRETZELS’. Because whilst the word ‘freedom’ is used a lot, the billboard is terrifically vague. Freedom from what? Freedom from punctuation, certainly (but that’s
a whole other story – specifically, from about three weeks ago). Freedom from explaining or providing anything resembling a cogent argument. Instead, it seeks to tap into some kind of bubbling discontent without having to nail its colours to the mast. Frankly, I’m suspicious. There’s only one rational conclusion – it’s Marxism, pure and simple. In particular, it’s Groucho Marxism, who once sang the song ‘Whatever It Is, I’m Against It’. At least Groucho was trying to be funny. The billboard at the end of my street is unintentionally hilarious. But much like Groucho, the billboard at the end of my street has siblings. Lots of them. In fact, yellow billboards are popping up all over the place. It’s sort of like ‘Day of the Triffids but with bigger font. It’s an election year. Politics, at its best, is a contest of ideas. But there should, at the very least, be some kind of idea. At least to start with. I guess there’s something that feels – to me at least – brazenly cynical about these billboards and it’s making me cranky. I’m sure there are some people who love those billboards. People fond of the colour yellow or Aretha Franklin, for starters. But not me. It’s been a long couple of years. There’ll be lots of advertising over the next few months from all kinds of political parties. I’ll disagree with most of it. I’ll probably believe none of it. But if I could say anything to those responsible for the big yellow billboard – stand for something other than opposing everything. Please. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Apple packing demonstration to be held in Tyabb from any object to the eye owing to its passing through atmospheric layers of varying density. Just as the ray of light happens to pass from a rare atmosphere to a denser one or vice versa, it is bent towards or away from the perpendicular. Melbourne and Portsea are just far enough apart to offer an excellent opportunity of noting the effects of refraction. From Black Rock one may occasionally see the whole of Nepean Peninsula, which in normal conditions is well below the sea horizon. *** THE trees in the Frankston Honour Avenue are making rapid growth, and if properly attended to, should realise the fondest hopes of parents, relatives and friends, who planted them with such loving care. Many people who profess knowledge of the subject are of opinion that the trees, in the past, have not received the intelligent treatment necessary to produce growth suitable for an avenue. They point to the misshapen trunks, broken branches, and irregular growth, and state that a little care at the proper time would have obviated much that is now unsightly. It is to be hoped that the Shire council will bear this matter in mind and give the trees all the treatment that might reasonably be expected in the production of an avenue worthy of the district. Another matter that should be attended to at once is the fixing of the brass name plates on the various trees. This work is long overdue, and should be put in hand at once. ***

The auxiliary was established with the object of easing the expenditure on commodities at the hospital at a stage when the institution had commenced to rapidly expand, and the movement has proved itself most successful. *** AT the Frankston Police Court on Monday last, before Mr. W.

Secretary for Railways forwards the following communication to Mr. W. Crawford Young, hon. secretary of the Combined Progress Associations (Frankston to Aspendale): “Adverting to your letter of 18th inst., I am directed to intimate that arrangements have been made to run the 5.50pm “down” Carrum train express from Melbourne to Caulfield when the electric service on the Oakleigh and Glen Huntly lines comes into operation, which, it is anticipated, will be early next month.” *** IT is stated on good authority that Lieut. Colonel Chas. E. Merrett will be a candidate at the elections in June next for the seat in the Legislative Council at present held by Mr. Adamson. Mr. Merrett, in wooing the electors of the South-Eastern Province, which embraces Frankston and the Peninsula, will be warmly received by many friends who first made his acquaintance as president of the Royal Agricultural Society, which position he has filled with distinction for several years. *** COUNCILLOR Chitty, of Queensland, is at present visiting his brother at Frankston. It is five years since Cr. Chitty was last in Frankston, and he is greatly impressed with the wonderful progress made by the town during that period, and is not at all sorry that he retained his interest in several properties in the district. While expressing delight at the charm of our seaside town, Cr. Chitty has a good word to say for Banana-

FRANKSTON justices of the peace, as a rule, are fairly regular in their attendances at the court on Monday mornings. Perhaps it would be more correct to say that the Frankston court is regularly attended by local justices, for it is only fair to state that the bulk of the court work is carried out by justices who travel good distances to carry out their magisterial duties. It so happened on Monday last that Cr. W. Armstrong was the only J.P. to put in an appearance, and although the police searched all over the town, a second justice could not be located. As a consequence, a legal gentleman from the city was forced to apply for the adjournment of two cases in which he was interested. Cr. Armstrong transacted the other business on the list, one justice being empowered to act in certain cases. It would, perhaps, be an advantage to have a roster drawn up, allotting dates to the half-dozen justices, who could reasonably be expected to attend. The loss of much valuable time and delay in the transaction of public business would thus be obviated. *** AS usual, the attendance at the Frankston Pictures last Saturday night was large. The principal pictures were Wanda Hawley and Helen Jerome Eddy in “Miss Hobbs”, and Monte Blue in “The Kentuckians”, both being well received. The programme for tomorrow night will include “The Souls of Youth”. *** UNDER date of 27th February, the

Compiled by Cameron McCullough ON Monday, 6th inst., a demonstration of apple packing will be held at the Tyabb Co-operative Co’s Cool Store. Mr P. J. Carmody, Chief Orchard Inspector, knowing of the hundred different methods or systems used in packing, and again, in some cases, of the ignorance of any proper pack at all among new growers, has arranged to give all growers an opportunity of seeing a pack which, universally used, would be, in his opinion, a boon to the apple growing industry. Mr Krole, the Government demonstrator, will carry out the demonstrations, and the Company’s secretary, Mr Houffe, hopes that a large number of growers will avail themselves of the opportunity of receiving hints on packing. *** AN interesting phenomenon is mentioned by a friend at Portsea, who says that one Sunday evening, between 8 and 9 o’clock, the moon (in the first quarter) was slightly obscured by smoke haze, when suddenly all the lights on the foreshore from Port Melbourne to beyond St. Kilda came into view. They were so distinct that with binoculars they could pick out individual lights, such as the Gellibrand. The phenomenon lasted about half an hour and ceased as soon as the haze cleared from the moon. It was seen from Sorrento also, many people being attracted by the brilliant display. The display was due to conditions of atmosphere favouring high degree of refraction, the bending of a ray of light

Langwarrin and Balnarring to play in womens final, Baden Powell in a thriller, Tigers pull off run chase Richmond and number three Spencer Wilton both contributed by scoring half-centuries. Dromana’s run chase started well. At 1/99 they looked in a good position to get the win. A middle order collapse set Dromana back. They lost their next four wickets for just five runs, with momentum swinging Crib Point’s way. In the end it was time that cost Dromana the victory. Stumps was called with the ladder leaders at 9/165. Crib Point had held on for a brilliant win. Carrum Downs took advantage of Dromana’s slip up by defeating Delacombe Park. The victory puts them on top of the table, equal on points with Dromana. Frankston YCW’s total of 97 was easily chased down by Hastings on Saturday. Carrum also scored a good win, getting the better of Main Ridge.

IT was semi-finals round in MPCA womens. Balnarring cruised to victory after Pines posted a lacklustre score in their innings. Pines never got into gear, with only two batters reaching double figures before being bowled out for 70. Balnarring reached the required runs with the loss of just one wicket and in under nine overs. Grace Barnes top scored for Balnarring with 20. In the other semi-final, Langwarrin managed 88 in their innings for the loss of just a single wicket. It was within reach of Tootgarook, but they fell just three runs short, running out of time at just 85 runs. Langwarrin will now face Balnarring in the final on 6 March.

ONE of the best individual innings of the MPCA season helped Ballam Park get a hard fought win on Saturday. Ballam Park took on Tyabb at Bunguyan Reserve.

Pinecliff provides another Diamond winner HORSE RACING
By Ben Triandafillou THE Pinecliff training centre in Mount Eliza has provided yet another Blue Diamond winner with Daumier digging deep for the Anthony and Sam Freedman yard to win the feature juvenile race on Saturday 26 February. Hidden away just above the Sunnyside North Beach in Mt Eliza, the Freedman partnership have utilised Pinecliff and its private racetracks as well as their Flemington stables to dominate the two-year-old contest in recent years. The remarkable run has seen four of the last five Group 1 Blue Diamond winners come through the state-of-the-art set-up with the Freedman-trained Hanseatic also finishing a narrow second in 2020. Since Grahame Begg’s homebred colt Written By claimed the juvenile sprint in 2018 when stabled at the Pinecliff base, the Freedman partnership has won the race with Lyre (2019), Artorius (2021) and now Daumier (2022). The Godolphin-owned Daumier had to show plenty of fight to fend off Revolutionary Miss and race-favourite Jacquinot, but with the addi-
tion of the blinkers, managed to cling on to win narrowly by a nose. Co-trainer Sam Freedman said the success was a culmination of the hard work put in behind the scenes. “I’m just proud of the whole team,” Freedman said post-race. “It’s been a fair sort of build up to this but the staff at Pinecliff and Flemington, I stand up here and do the interviews after a win like this but they’re doing all the hard work.” “They work their arse off to get these sorts of results so it’s a big thrill.” Following a similar blueprint to Artorius’ win last year, Freedman said they needed to find something to be in the finish on Saturday, and the blinkers certainly did the trick. “We needed to find a couple of lengths today. It was the same story with probably Artorius last year, you need to find something, and he worked super in [blinkers] on Tuesday. You’ve got to be right at the top of your game and thankfully he was today,” he said. Daumier is spending a few days out in the paddock before potentially pushing on and heading towards the Golden Slipper in Sydney on March 19.

Seagulls swoop on Craigie SOCCER
By Craig MacKenzie RHYS Craigie could be the last piece of the promotion jigsaw put together by Mornington gaffer Adam Jamieson. The 24-year-old Scottish midfielder arrived in Melbourne just over a week ago for his second stint in State 1. Edinburgh-born Craigie was picked up by Hearts when he was just nineyears-old and was involved with the Jambos until he was 18. “I played one year full-time at Hearts then they released me and I signed with Stenhousemuir,” Craigie said. In 2019 he was on holiday in Melbourne when invited to Beaumaris for a two-week trial. He signed with Mornington’s State 1 rival and although Beaumaris finish third last that season Craigie played 19 of the club’s 22 games and polled 17 votes in the league best and fairest, finishing third five votes behind retired Mornington great Craig Smart. Craigie had caught the eye of good judges throughout the league and fielded various approaches including one from Mornington gaffer Adam Jamieson. “I turned him down at the time. “I was being loyal to Beaumaris because they’d looked after me.” Craigie returned to Edinburgh for a surprise Christmas celebration with his family and the story of him suddenly emerging from the boot of his brother’s car to the astonishment of his father appeared in the Daily Record and was the subject of a viral video. “I came back to Beaumaris (in 2020) for five or six weeks before COVID hit and I wanted to go back home and be with my family.” When he returned to Scotland Craigie played with Trenant Juniors until Jamieson’s persistence eventually paid off and late last year he agreed to join the Seagulls. His first hit-out with his new club came last Tuesday night when he featured in a 2-2 draw with Springvale White Eagles at Dallas Brooks Park. Josh Hine and Matt Harrington scored for Mornington. The Seagulls led at the break after a Harrington corner was headed down by Josh Heaton at the back post to Hine who couldn’t miss from point blank range. Harrington’s second half goal was a stunner. He ran onto a long ball over the top on the right and expertly chipped the advancing White Eagles keeper and in off the far post.
Great Scot: Mornington’s new midfield recruit Rhys Craigie has high expectations this season. Picture: Supplied Craigie’s second pre-season hitout wasn’t as positive as NSW side Glebe Wanderers beat the Seagulls 4-1 at Dallas Brooks Park on Saturday. Despite the loss Craigie remains positive about Mornington’s promotion hopes this season. “I’m hoping we go for the league,” he said. “I think that’s what the club’s aim is and that’s what everyone seems to think we can achieve this year. “And it’s a lovely club. “The togetherness is there and after the game everyone’s having a drink and everyone’s involved. “It’s a proper community club and it’s just a nice place to be.” Here are the results of last week’s friendlies: TUESDAY: Mornington 2 (Josh Hine, Matt Harrington) Springvale White Eagles 2.
