Syringes dumped 12383846-ACM15-18
Yarra Ranges Council has maintained syringedumping remains an "unusual occurrence" an Lilydale Lake, despite as many as 30 discarded needles recently located at the popular destination. After becoming concerned over finding so many needles near where children often play at the site, Matt Newton and a group of good Samaritans took to social media to create awareness for the community. On Wednesday 28 March, Mr Newton posted on the Yarra Valley Noticeboard an image of himself collecting about 30 needles that had been found dumped at Lilydale Lake. The post read; "don't care what your reason
is, why you have them or what you use them for, dumping 30 odd needles including used ones around Lillydale Lake is not on." "Could have been a kid or someone's dogs that got to them first," he continued. Mr Newton said he correctly disposed of the syringes after collecting them. Lillydale Lake is a popular choice for families with young children, with many often enjoying a picnic right near where the needs were found. Matt's post has attracted more than 1500 likes, while residents took to the comments section to express their disgust and concern about the find. Many also thanked Matt for disposing of them correctly.
"As a result, I think I'll have to stay away from the lake, if this is a now common occurrence, it seems the the lake is undergoing negative change at the moment," Brandon Pytellek commented. "It is supposed to be a place enjoyed by everyone ... how can you when you have to worry about that," Yvonne Burbury commented "Good on you Matt for doing what you did." Yarra Ranges Council has responded to the dumping of syringes noting that this is a 'very unusual occurrence' for Lillydale Lake. "We received reports of syringes dumped at Lillydale Lake overnight between Tuesday 27 and Wednesday 28 March," Director of Environment and Engineering, Mark Varmalis, said.
"This is a very unusual occurrence at the lake, as syringe disposal bins are located in each toilet ... the syringes have since been removed from the area." Mr Varmalis said that Council has a maintenance crew based at the lake, which monitors activity at the park - which includes rubbish dumping. Yarra Ranges Council also offers a syringe disposal service from each of the Community Links. In response to resident enquiries about the syringes, Mr Varmalis said; "we have lodged a request for an investigation into syringe disposal bins at the lake". Residents can report syringes to Council on 1300 368 333.

Light the way to safety By Derek Schlennstedt A parent concerned for the lives of his children and other students at Kallista Primary School has petitioned for flashing 40km/h safety signs to be installed along the roadside. Jason Fox said that due to the location of the school, flashing 40km signs were need to make it blatantly clear to drivers that it was a school zone. The school situated between Kallista-Emerald Road and Monbulk Road, deals with large amounts of traffic including tourist buses that travel to Grant's Picnic Ground, situated only 100 metres from the school. Mr Fox said that a number of close calls have been recorded by the school and said VicRoads assessed the site and their report showed over 70 percent of cars which drove through the 40km/h zone during school times were doing over 30km/h and even up to 80km/h. "People don't realise there's a school there," Mr Fox said. "The school is close to Grant's so you get tourists that don't know the roads and don't know that the school zone is there ... if the light is there, it'll help them see it." "In the Dandenong ranges we don't have the best weather either, if you live up here you know poor visibility comes into it too, flashing lights would help drivers see the signs." Nearby schools, such as The Patch, Selby, and Mt Dandenong all have flashing lights and although ar eon main roads have drop-off points unlike Kallista said Mr Fox. "Some people park on the opposite side of Monbulk road and cross the road ... people don't want to do it, but there's no other place to park or do it," Mr Fox said. "We need to get it fixed before something does happen ... everyone acts after something has happened but we want to do something before that occurs."

Partners for next four years By Peter Douglas Yarra Ranges Council has shored up funding streams for many community-based events and services over the next four years. At its Tuesday 27 March meeting, council endorsed the 2018-2022 Partnership Grants program, which provides 35 community groups with almost $2 million in funds, and which will go towards supporting a healthy, connected Yarra Ranges. Of the recipients, 13 Creative Community grants will be awarded, with a total of $158,650 for the first year and 633,230 over the four-year program. In addition, 23 Connected and Healthy Communities grants will be awarded, with $334,950 in the first year and $1,332,800 over the program's entirety. Member of the grants assessment panel, Andrew Fullagar, spoke about the impact of the program.
"Some of these applications you can't assess in dollars and cents alone. There are intangible benefits, including connection, care and inclusion," he said. The 2012 Yarra Ranges Citizen of the Year recipient said it was time for council to consider increasing the funding for partnership grants, given its significance to the community. Cr Fiona McAllister said the grants, in many cases, are worth much more than ensuring community connectedness. "Groups such as Lilydale Assist, the Dandenong Ranges Emergency Relief Service (DRERS) - those groups all pack a punch so much above their weight," Cr McAllister said. "As we come into winter, and after speaking with some of those groups, it is such an important sector to ensure we do get through funding. "When you look at what they provide, there are families that don't eat if that don't get the support provided by DRERS and HICCI

The Victorian Government has helped Sherbrooke Archers star on target, thanks to a new grant. Monbulk MP James Merlino recently announced the club would receive $1995 from the State Government's 'Sport and Recreation Emergency Equipment Grants' program. The grant allows the club to replace a first aid defibrillator that was lost through criminal theft. Mr Merlino said it was great the club could receive a helping hand. "Unfortunately, our sporting clubs are sometimes targeted by vandals and thieves, who damage and steal vital sporting equipment," he said. "Our emergency grants provide the lifeline clubs need so the game can go on."

IN BRIEF Restrictions still in place
Support sought RSL Appeal organisers at all Sub-Branches throughout Victoria are gearing up for the 2018 ANZAC Appeal, from 1st April. Roger Boness, President of the Mount Evelyn Sub Branch, is confident the local community will once again generously support the RSL's annual ANZAC Appeal. "Our RSL volunteers, many of them veterans, are ready to offer a variety of ANZAC Appeal badges. The high level of enegy and commitment shown by our Sub-Branch volunteers as they raise the much needed funds, is truly humbling." Said Roger Boness. "Each and every volunteer is determined to get into the community and not only sell ANZAC Appeal badges, but to share their stories and experiences. I would also like to thank the members of our local community who so generously support the ANZAC Appeal and our veterans." According to RSL Victoria's Appeals Manager, Peter Smith OAM, "The funds raised through the RSL's ANZAC Appeal enable us to deliver much needed assistance to those men and women who have served our country and who now need our support." "Funds from the ANZAC Appeal go to a variety of services and programs for veterans who need help and is tailored to their individual needs and circumstances. It can include assistance such as medical bills, emergency home repairs, food vouchers and relief from social isolation. Providing premium welfare services is a top priority for RSL Victoria, and the ANZAC Appeal makes this happen." Mr Smith added. "Each RSL Sub-Branch in Victoria plays a vital role within their community and for many veterans, the Sub-Branch is the social and welfare hub that they know and love. I encourage members of the community to engage with their local RSL, attend a commemorative ANZAC service and to show that they care by buying and wearing an ANZAC Appeal badge with pride this April."
Residents remindedThe declared Fire Danger Period is nothing new in the state of Victoria, however many residents throughout the Dandenong Ranges and parts of the Yarra Valley either ignore, neglect or are unaware of their responsibilities about burning off and fire safety. Since the declaration of the Fire Danger Period in this district, Police across the Yarra Ranges have attended more than 60 fires. The majority are residents burning off in the yard. 50 of these fires will be prosecuted through the courts for open air burning during the fire danger period. Leading Senior Constable Peter Hamilton of the Fire Patrol Unit, states "Yarra Ranges Police monitor and respond to most fires during the restrictions, and the current penalties include fines up to $19028.40, up to 12 months jail time, or both." Mt Evelyn Fire Brigade Captain Rick Ventrella commented that too many people underestimate the potential that fires have this time of year, and that the risk extends beyond summer. "We've had hardly any rain since January. Residents of Yarra Ranges need to appreciate where they live and do the right thing. "The other disappointment about people burning off anytime during the year, is the lack of available water to extinguish a fire if needed ... no hoses connected or they don't reach the location of the fire, or not in attendance and wind often takes it away and causes problems", he said. Fire restrictions in Central region were formally declared on 18th December and continue to run through until May 1, 2018 unless varied by a subsequent declaration. The dates vary each year according to the vegetation condition and predicted risks. People wishing to understand more about what types of fires and activities are permitted during the fire danger period should get the latest information from CFA's website - www.cfa.vic.gov.au/ warnings-restrictions/can/

Domestic Animal Plan passed By Kath Gannaway Yarra Ranges Shire's 29,805 official dogs and official 8,301 cats, are officially 'under new management'. Unofficial dogs and cats - ie those not registered, are also subject to the new management plan! The Yarra Ranges Domestic Animal Management Plan (DAMP) 2018-2021 was endorsed unanimously at the Yarra Ranges Council meeting on Tuesday, 16 March, 2018. The Pet plan Survey which was part of the consultation around the draft DAMP attracted more than 4000 responses. Background information provided by the Council's Corporate Services department said the survey data highlighted that pet owners in Yarra Ranges are particularly captivated by their pets. " ... nearly 100% of survey respondents stated that their pets are an important part of their family," the report said. It also said that the survey data highlighted the strong link between pet ownership and health and wellbeing with 70 per cent of pet owners confirming that pets play a role in brak-
ing down social barriers, through interacting with other pet owners and increasing physical activity as pet owners are more likely to exercise. Changes to the existing DAMP include broadening the scope of animal management services to investigate innovation and opportunities that recognise the role of pets in helping people achieve personal and community health and wellbeing outcomes. Key changes were identified as partnership initiatives, for example with Animal Aid and dog obedience clubs to minimise the incidence of barking dog complaints and targeted programs aimed at issues around unowned and abandoned cats. Other changes involved pet-related tourism opportunities, strategies to help people protect their pets in family violence situations and including the keeping of pets other than cats and dogs. The Council still retains a legislative responsibility under the DAMP for aspects such as training of authorised officers, encouraging responsible pet ownership, minimising the risk of dog attacks, minimising nuisance caused by cats and dogs and ensuring they are registered.

With the unexpected return of the wet weather Police are reminding drivers to drive to the conditions. On March 26, Knox and Maroondah Highway Patrol members and the Belgrave van attended five separate collisions, three of which occurred on the Mt Dandenong Tourist Rd. All of these collisions could have been avoided if drivers were using common sense when driving on wet and slippery roads. Incidents included two vehicle rollovers. One vehicle veered off the road down a steep embankment requiring driver extraction while another multi vehicle collision occurred on a sharp bend. Unfortunately one of the collisions occurred due to a vehicle stopping to assist at an earlier collision and motorists not paying attention to the hazard up ahead. Another rollover occurred just 150m from a separate collision. Luckily no serious injuries were sustained.

Brave CFA brigades
Kurth Kiln Open Day
Sadly, last month we saw fires in Gembrook with some properties lost and damaged. But, if it wasn't for our brave and dedicated Dandenong Ranges CFA brigades, things could have been much worse. As summer is slowly coming to a close, I would like to thank all of our emergency services locally and throughout the state who not only helped with the fires, but all the volunteers who swapped their summer holidays and activities to man our stations, ensuring our communities were safe. Please remember that fire restrictions are still in place until May. Last month, we also saw the release of the report by the Victorian Ombudsman, which revealed the Daniel Andrews Labor Government rorted taxpayers $387,842 at the last state election to fund 'red shirt' campaigners for the Labor Party. This is the same report the Andrews Government is alleged to have spent an estimated $1 million to hide from Victorians. This report revealed local Labor MP and Minister for Education and Emergency Services, James Merlino, rorted $21,148 from taxpayers at the last state election; the election that would make him a Minister. What is further disappointing is the Andrews Government is only sorry they got caught. Daniel Andrews refused to take any action against members of his government who were found to have rorted from taxpayers. We saw the leadership group of the Australian Cricket Team stand down straight after

The state te of

Last month, many in the local community would have received a petition in the mail asking you to call on Daniel Andrews and Minister for Education, James Merlino, to provide urgent funding for Emerald Secondary College to repair their buildings - funding we have been campaigning for some time. It's funny how James Merlino and Daniel Andrews were able to find government money at the last election for their campaign, and again for their attempts to hide their dishonest actions, yet continually claim they do not have the funding for the students and teachers of Emerald Secondary College. It is time Victoria has government that puts our schools and the taxpayers first; it is becoming more apparent as the weeks go by that Daniel Andrews and his Labor Government will only place themselves first.

I refer to the recent article (Mountain Views Mail, 13 March 2018) on Evelyn MP Christine Fyffe's renewed call for the construction of a Cave Hill railway station. This is indeed welcome news; the station is essential and will be even more important after a new subdivision adds thousands of dwellings to the area. I would however request that she reconsider her proposal for a double-storey carpark at Mooroolbark station. I understand where this demand comes from, but I urge the adoption of an alternative strategy. Parking spaces at ground level cost around $15,000 per space to build. Construction of multi-level parking costs between $40,000 and $84,000 per space, depending on the complexity of the parking building. An additional cost comes in the form of traffic con-

gestion, which worsens when we encourage more private car traffic onto roads during peak travel periods. Improved bus services on the other hand, which could remove the need for 40-50 parking spaces per busload of passengers, can be relatively inexpensive. The buses already exist, but are used inefficiently on outdated routes that were never planned to coordinate with trains. Some routes were actually planned, decades ago, as competition for rail services. An overhaul of bus timetables and routes could therefore reduce the parking demand at Mooroolbark station (and Lilydale, Croydon and Ringwood East) and avoid the increase in capital expenditure, and the resultant traffic congestion, that would come from building bigger carparks.

Extra $3 million sought By Peter Douglas Yarra Ranges Council will consider increasing funding for its Civic Centre redevelopment due to an unanticipated surge in cost projection of $3.6 million dollars. At its Tuesday 27 March meeting, council voted for recommending an increase to the original $28 million budget, which was passed in December last year, citing escalating building costs and implementation of safety recommendations. As a whole, council mostly supported the recommendation, although failed to win the support of Cr Fiona McAllister, who said she could not support a 12 per cent increase in allocated funds. Yarra Ranges Council chief executive officer, Glenn Patterson, said the present economic landscape needed to be a consideration. "A routine review of the project cost plan revealed that we had only allocated a 5 per cent construction contingency, instead of the industry standard of 10," Mr Patterson said. "As the designs were signed off on 19 months ago, and there are now more publicly funded works happening across the state, the price of construction has increased substantially." If approved, the additional funds will be taken from Council's Asset Renewal Reserve funding, which is a standard approach for capital projects. "This will not impact on the delivery of any of our capital works or our asset-renewal program, and will mean we won't have to borrow as much money for the Civic Centre project," Mr Patterson said. Cr Tony Stevenson, who moved the motion, said, upon further investigation, council should find it reasonable that more funds are required.
Former mayor, Jason Callanan, inspects loose wires inside the in-need-of-repair building. 153408 "We've moved on from a conceptual design to a detailed design. Through that process ... we've discovered things we would rather have discovered earlier," Cr Stevenson said. "It's a hot market at the moment for con-

struction. There is a lot of activity, a lot of capital works happening. Those are the types of things that are pushing the cost." Though, Cr Stevenson said there was some positive aspects, with council needing to bor-
row $4.1 million less than what was originally planned. Cr Stevenson said this represented a drop in the loan amount from around 75% to 70%. Despite the sentiment, Cr Fiona McAllister believed other options could've been explored. "I fully support the need for the redevelopment ... but, I think an increase of over 12 per cent in the project cost is something that I cannot support," Cr McAllister said. "I fully appreciate the circumstances in many of those instances that have led to unanticipated costs, but I still think that we have a set budget and should stick with that." Cr McAllister said the extra funds should be viewed in terms of how it could be used to help the community. "Whilst I think in the scheme of things, $2 to $3 million doesn't often sound like much, but I think about the bang for our buck we get from investing back into our community," Cr McAllister said. "I still believe in, and have huge faith in, the team running this project. And I have such faith that I believe they could run this project successfully without this additional money. "The return on investment (for the offices) is substantial. The buildings around us are decaying ... but I cannot support in excess of a 12 per cent increase in cost at this stage." Interestingly, concerns about a blow-out in cost were raised back in December last year, with Cr Tim Heenan flagging that possibility. Cr Heenan also queried whether, with more people working from home in the future, and sharing office space, it was the best spend of ratepayers' money. "I just hope it will be value for money and the community space and office space will serve its purpose well into the future," Cr Heenan said.

'Cinnamon' return is sweet By Peter Douglas
Dandenong Ranges author Pauline Hosking has released her latest book. 179311
Dandenong Ranges author Pauline Hosking has revealed the second release in her children's series. 'Cinnamon Stevens - Ghost Light' continues the story about a 12-year-old sleuth, who lives in the Dandenong Ranges, who solves crimes in and around Melbourne. In the latest adventure, when her Year 7 class has an excursion to Walhalla, the old gold-mining town in Gippsland, she is dared to visit the out-of-bounds graveyard at night. Hosking said she is looking forward to the book's launch at the Belgrave library on Tuesday 10 April at 2pm. "It will feature an expert panel made up of students from Upwey South and St Thomas More's primary schools," she said. "In July, she will host How to Write a Whodunnit sessions for nine to 12 year olds at the Belgrave library.
Pacific Rim spectacular Pacific Rim: Uprising Starring John Boyega, Scott Eastwood and Cailee Spaeny Rated M The sequel to the original 2013 Pacific Rim film, Pacific Rim: Uprising is a well-constructed blockbuster brimming with spirit. Ten years after the human victory in the Kaiju War, estranged mech pilot Jake Pentecost (John Boyega) returns to the Pan-Pacific Defence Corps to train new recruits, just as a new monstrous threat emerges from within the organisation. The Pacific Rim franchise is a loving tribute to robot-themed anime and Japanese kaiju (giant monster) movies. This new instalment may have rougher pacing and some vague plot details, but it has better characters, and is still replete with outstanding action and visual flair. Boyega is a highly charismatic lead, and the cast has great chemistry. Every major charac-
ter undergoes gratifying character development, becoming more responsible and confident in their own abilities, and it's great to see Jake and haughty Major Nate Lambert (Scott Eastwood) get past their personal friction and become respectful brothers-in-arms. Cailee Spaeny is a star on the rise as Amara, a plucky young tech genius who builds her own mech. Uprising builds upon the world of the first film in intriguing ways, including grotesque genetic experiments on kaiju brains, and the plot has some well-handled twists and redherrings. The battle scenes are thrilling as ever, blending martial arts and building-shattering ballistics into elegant, visceral spectacles. Pacific Rim: Uprising is a stunning action spectacular with surprisingly strong characters. - Seth Lukas Hynes

TIMELESS ELEGANCE THIS mid-20th century country home was designed and built to nestle into the centre of nearly half an acre (1757 square metres) of garden paradise. After undergoing careful refurbishment and restoration by its current owner – Christine Little (know nationally for her interior and landscape career) the home is now available for sale. The design affords for the large picture windows to bring the garden into all rooms – on all sides, on both levels. As the light and seasons change continually, moving from room to room is a joy. The large open plan living area on the upper level is flexible and many furnishing choices can be made. The gourmet kitchen boasts carara white marble bench tops, all SMEG appliances including integrated dishwasher. Four bedrooms and a study with the master enjoying north/south garden views as well as double vanity ensuite and walk-in dressing room. The self-contained guest rooms downstairs have been fitted out with the same finest quality appliances and fittings as used upstairs. Cabinet work, door furniture, etc, has a soft country feel and coupled with soft paint colours will not date. Classically stylish, not fashionable this property will only increase in value. The garden was cleared selectively and the remaining trees and shrubs pleached to allow sunlight into all areas. Mass plantings and careful choices have already thickened and a superb sensitive sophisticated garden will continue to thrive. All seasons are
defined well. The old-fashioned French and English roses newly planted are everywhere, while the newest bulbs still slumber while the soil awaits spring. More than seven hundred and fifty daffodils alone are planted along the edge of garden beds and gravel paths. Peonies and many tulips add to the colour burst in many pockets throughout the garden. The autumn is a riot of colour with dozens of maples and of course the nature-strip planting now reaches to the roadside where the garden now finishes. The vegetable patch is unconventional, artistic and clever. The entire house and garden reflect all you would hope and expect from a substantial property in this location. ●

Plea for second court By Derek Schlennstedt One netball court is currently all the players from Olinda Ferny Creek Football Netball Club and Sassafras Ferny Creek Netball Club have to train and play on. Though one court may seem enough the sole court for both clubs has to be shared by over 100 keen netballers. Member for Monbulk James Merlino visited the courts on March 13 and said he would raise the need for a second court with Minister for Sport John Eren. Recently on 18 March, Mr Merlino received a petition from representatives from the Olinda Ferny Creek Football and Netball Club and Hilltop Recreation Association who had ac-
crued almost 500 signature to expand the site. "We have well over 100 netballers between the Olinda Ferny Creek Football Netball Club and the Sassafras Ferny Creek Netball Club and all of them share just one court," sad Mr Merlino. "With all of the training and games it has become a constant challenge to fit everyone onto the one court. "Many are now driving off the mountain just to get court time ... the clubs are telling me loud and clear they need an additional court." "I'll continue to advocate strongly for this much needed project." Matt Blanchard, Vice President of the Olinda Ferny Creek Football Netball club, said that
an expanding netball competition was being experienced throughout the Yarra Ranges. He said that facilities in particular were failing to keep up with the increase. "We had eight players and one team when the club started in 2007 ... we've now grown to a point where we have 58 and pushing six sides," Mr Blanchard said. "It's interesting we're not alone, there's just been a massive growth right throughout that region and the competition itself." The club also has to share the court with their sister club, Ferny Creek, and Mr Blanchard said it has become a balancing act trying to ensure everyone gets equal time and opportunity.
"Ferny Creek is our sister club, they've got five or six sides and train up here as well ... it's just trying to find a balance where everyone can train and get that quality of training." "We often have to travel off the mountain to Ferntree Gully." At around $3000 per season, training at Ferntree Gully is no cheap alternative. Matt said that with the construction of a second court, those problems would be reduced and that a burgeoning sport such as Netball needs all the support it can get. "It's a difficult situation, and we've managed it as best we can so far ... but it is a growing sport that needs help."
