Felling fans fires A leading Australian ecologist and former Warburton resident says Yarra Valley locals should be “very concerned” about the impact of logging on bushfire severity. Australian National University professor David Lindenmayer was among a group of five scientists that recently released a comment paper on the impacts of logging on recent summer bushfires. The research, published in Nature Ecology & Evolution, found that logging had a profound impact on the severity of bushfires. Mr Lindenmayer has worked in the Yarra Valley and Central Highlands for about 37 years. He said there were numerous reasons for the research findings. “When a forest is logged a huge proportion of the biomass is actually left in the forest,” he said. “About two years later that material is burnt but only half is volatised, which is what is known as smoke. “Half of it actually stays in the forest, even though there has been a fire through it, and so that adds to the fuel.” Mr Lindenmayer said research found that logging also dried out forests, making them more flammable, by removing moist elements such as tree ferns. He added that forest regeneration created a field of young trees and those that die, because they lose the race for light, add to the fuel load. “The forest is drier, it has more fuel in it and the architecture of the forest has changed. They are the key mechanisms which are giving rise to this problem,” Mr Lindenmayer said. “The evidence of this is compelling.” Mr Lindenmayer said townships like Warburton should be concerned about the findings. “I worry about places like Healesville, like Powelltown and Noojee because of the prox-
imity of high risk,” he said. “They should be very concerned, I used to live in Warburton, my wife’s family is from the Yarra Valley...I lost friends in Marysville, I lost friends at Steels Creek. I am acutely aware of the dangers that come with this. “There’s no doubt that the most severe problems with fire are created by fire weather and climate but then logging adds significantly to that as well. “That’s a problem that we can do something about by not logging forests close to townships.” Melbourne University honorary associate professor in fire ecology and management, Kevin Tolhurst, disagreed with the research findings. “It was fairly inconclusive and what that comment paper really did was it didn’t actually provide any evidence for the argument or the conclusions they were drawing,” he said. “If you look at individual sites you could make an argument that a logged area is more flammable than a non-distrubed forest, for example. “But when you look at the whole landscape that’s not the case.” In a recent opinion piece, co-authored by Mr Tolhurst, he argued that it is poor science to suggest that timber harvesting leads to more severe fires based on selective, local-scale observations. “Some ecologists and conservationists, opposed to timber harvesting, are trying to use bushfire disasters as a lever to stop native forest harvesting, but their case is based on opinion, beliefs and selective science,” the paper read. Mr Tolhurst said he believed a better approach of studying landscape flammability would be to look at the temporal and spatial patterns of flammability across the landscape over numerous years.

New gin joint for Lilydale
The proposed McDonald's and petrol station site on the Maroondah Highway.
McDonald’s coming By Jed Lanyon Healesville residents’ interest in the potential construction of a McDonald’s franchise has spiked again following a Commercial Real Estate application for lot 1/17 Maroondah Highway, Healesville. While listed as the sale for a petrol station site, buyers are offered to “Join McDonald’s in this major new development, in one of Melbourne’s major tourist areas”. The listing, updated on 7 February, highlights the location as the “first petrol site into Healesville after the long drive from Melbourne” and that the development is “ready to go” with permits, plans and the site being levelled.
Healesville residents have been vocal in their support and opposition to a potential McDonald’s site for years. Locals took to social media to share their views. “Why not? On the way home from the AFL night football I sometimes stop at Croydon Maccas, if one was here I could stop there and not have to eat and drive.” - Alice “I moved back out here to escape suburbia... if I wanted convenience I’d move back to the ugly burbs, but I don’t! Keep it quirky and different, not generic!” - Lisa “I mean it would open up a lot of jobs for young people like myself, and although there are heaps of places with great food, it’s not al-
ways at a price people are wanting to pay for something quick.” - Max “I don’t particularly want Maccas, but if Tecoma has shown us anything, it’s that if Maccas want to put up a store, they’ll do it, and no amount of community protest will stop them.” - Andrew “Love maccas but not needed in town we have enough mess already!” - Greg “So this (is) proposed for the gateway area at the start of town... that really sucks. Is that what we want our town’s first impression to look like?” - Tabitha McDonald’s Australia has been contacted for comment.
Community members are invited to make a submission towards an application for a hotel, lavender farm and associated gin experience in Lilydale. The application, YR-2019/371, has been received by Yarra Ranges Council and is now being advertised. It details the proposed use of land at 483489 Maroondah Highway, Lilydale and 169 Nelson Road, Lilydale. This includes a residential hotel, a lavender gin experience centre, sale and consumption of liquor, removal of vegetation, subdivision into two lots, creation of access to a Road Zone Category 1 and earthworks. More details about the application can be found by searching the address or ‘YR2019/371’ on the council’s ePlanning page. This advertisement period will end on 19 May and submissions can be lodged until a decision has been made. Yarra Ranges Council Planning Officers will assess this application against the relevant parts of the Planning Scheme and community submissions, before preparing a report and recommendation to Council. Depending on the interest of the proposal from the community, Council officers may arrange a consultation meeting with the applicant and objectors. This is an opportunity for objectors to ask questions related to the proposal, and where the permit applicant can answer questions and provide any relevant detail. Submitters will be advised in writing when a Council meeting date is set to decide the application. For more information, visit Council’s ePlanning page or call Council’s Planning Team on 1300 368 333 during business hours.
Missing walker found By Jed Lanyon Police have located Glen Waverley man Daniel Portelli after an extensive search and rescue operation in Warburton on Friday 15 May. A search team of over 100 people searched Warburton bushland including local police, SES and volunteers after Mr Portelli was seen walking along Warburton Woods Point Road in East Warburton on Tuesday 12 May. Police and family were concerned for Mr Portelli’s welfare as his disappearance was extremely out of character. Lilydale SES deputy operations controller Louise Andrews was involved in the search operation in Warburton, which spanned over two days. “We were searching around an area where some items had been located. One group found more of his items which gave us a bit
more of an idea.” Mr Portelli’s silver Nissan Pulsar was located nearby. “We were still out searching when we had volunteers and family members come and tell us he’d been found. “Whenever we do these searches and you have an outcome, it’s a massive relief for everyone involved. “Seeing his family and friends and the giant relief from them, this is why we go and volunteer and do all this work for the SES. It’s about helping out when people are in need and it makes everything worthwhile.” Ms Andrews suggested that she, and other unit members had been able to put their hand up to volunteer at more incidents due to the coronavirus pandemic’s impact on their employment. In order to minimise the risk of Covid-19,

Keeping the pages open By Romy Stephens Libraries across the outer east have been working hard to keep the community reading during the coronavirus pandemic. Eastern Regional Libraries (ERL) was forced to close down all libraries across the Yarra Ranges on 19 March due to Covid-19 restrictions. Since then, ERL has developed a Click for Home Delivery system where books are posted to members' homes. ERLs manager of customer experience, Sarah Hopkins, said the postage service had been a huge success. "We're posting one box of library material per person, per month to anybody that wants some books," she said. "In April, across all Eastern Regional Libraries, we sent out about 2200 boxes. "We've received incredible feedback and thanks from members of the community who are so happy to have something that can occupy and distract them." The Click for Home Delivery still allows members to place holds on their favourite items in the catalogue and arrange for delivery once they are available. Members can also ask library staff to make a selection of magazines, books, DVDs or games. To help keep children engaged in reading, ERL has also continued its weekly storytime sessions online. "Prior to closing, Eastern Regional Libraries offered 42 storytimes a week, every week during term time," Ms Hopkins said. "That suddenly went to nothing, so we've organised to post at least one storytime every day. "The children who used to come to storytime can still tune in and see their librarian

Ms Hopkins said all of these ERL initiatives have been created to help "maintain connection" between libraries and the community. She said this time of isolation and closed doors has reinforced the importance of libraries. "I feel incredibly optimistic about the future of libraries. The response to people wanting their library, wanting to still use the collection, has been really strong," she said. "Although libraries don't come anywhere near being considered an essential service they are actually very important to lots of people." Despite libraries currently being closed, ERL has an extensive digital collection available online.

Escaping isolation this volunteer week With Covid-19 restrictions beginning to ease, environmental groups are now offering people, isolated at home, the chance to work outdoors. As National Volunteer Week gets underway this week, so too will the recommencement of volunteer-run working bees across the Yarra Ranges. Billanook Ward Councillor and Council representative for the Yarra Ranges Environment Advisory Committee, Tim Heenan, said environmental groups across the region will recommence working bees under State and Federal Government guidelines. “We have about 75 groups in the Yarra Ranges - some work on Council land, some work with Landcare, some work with Melbourne Water, some work with private landholders,” he said. “We know being out in the environment is good for your mental and physical health and we’ll continue to support our volunteers to do what they do best - looking after the environ-

ment - in a safe way.” Cr Heenan said the groups will work under strict guidelines such as keeping 1.5m apart and not sharing coffee cups or tools. “We’re talking about mini working bees ideally small groups of less than 10 people, so they can space out well and keep their social distance.” Friends of Belgrave Lake Park convenor Wendy Cross said the group meets every Tuesday to weed in bushland near the park. They are working on replanting the area with Indigenous plants to restore original vegetation and look after the creek bank, which is home to platypus. Ms Cross said it provides a good opportunity for those isolated due to coronavirus, to get outdoors and challenge themselves. “I can see a lot of people before long getting dreadfully bored and frustrated with nothing to do,” she said. “For me personally, and it probably applies to a lot, it’s an intellectual challenge... as well as a nice way to keep active.

IGA keeps locals in jobs By Jed Lanyon If there is one positive to take away from the Covid-19 pandemic, it’s those in our community who have lent their support to others going through a tough time. The team at Mount Evelyn Supa IGA, led by owner Tony Ingpen, have been no exception as they continue to support others in the community. Over a year ago I left the supermarket to start my career as a journalist with Star Mail. Upon leaving my first job of seven years, I was assured by Tony that I would always be welcomed back to IGA with open arms if I ever needed employment. As the Coronavirus pandemic placed a financial strain on many local businesses, I was temporarily stood down from my position with Star Mail in March. Tony’s words stuck true as I was offered my old job back alongside a host of new employees, who were put in a similar position and were acquired to help IGA cope with the community’s increased reliance on supermarkets. “In a two week period we employed 15 people,” Mr Ingpen said. “A lot of them had been put out of their normal job ... Some of them will hang around if their job doesn’t open up and some of them may go back to their normal lives and say ‘Thanks Tony’ and I thank them for what they have done.” Mr Ingpen turned to ex-employees first, then to the friends and family of his employees in search of work as well as those from local businesses. One IGA staff member, Lotus Fakatava, was the kitchen hand at the nearby Heart and Soul Coffee Lounge until the cafe could no longer sustain his employment. Cafe owner Shirley reached out to Mr Ingpen and he was quickly brought in by IGA to continue working.
Mount Evelyn IGA owner Tony Ingpen with shop assistant Laura. 208578 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS “I was really happy that she would do something like that,” Lotus said. “I came in and one of the first things Tony said was, ‘when can you start?’. There was a lot of uncertainty in the air but it meant a lot to hear from him that he was so on board with it early. “I didn’t really expect to land a job elsewhere or anything.” While supermarkets across Australia are putting on extra staff to cope with increased customer demands, Mr Ingpen’s community support doesn’t just come in a time of a global pandemic. In 2016, Mount Evelyn IGA took on several staff members of Seville’s IGA who were fac-
ing unemployment when the Entwistle family were forced to close their doors after operating for three generations. “Barry (Entwistle) is a good friend of mine ... He pretty much lost everything. He came to me and said, ‘I’ve got some really good people, could you take some?’ I always need good people.” “So as a favour to Barry and I suppose a way of getting a surplus of good people, I put six people on,” Mr Ingpen said. Seville’s staff were welcomed to make the transition to the Mount Evelyn supermarket at a time where there was no increased demand to put on extra staff. While most of the original
Seville IGA employees have moved on, a few still remain at Mount Evelyn to this day. Mr Ingpen spoke to Star Mail on 13 May, the first day of Victoria’s slow roll-back on lockdown regulations. He anticipated a “little spike” in shopping activity as Victorians can now have up to five visitors in their household. “It will be interesting, I expect that there will be quite a lot of households who will be entertaining for the first time in about three months.” Mr Ingpen said the ability for independent supermarkets to manually order stock and adjust the need for products to each individual order allowed stores to quickly adapt and understand changing shopping habits, opposed to the automatic ordering systems which assign stock to larger supermarket chains like Coles and Woolworths. “That was the first pebble rolling down the mountain that caused an avalanche. “It really should have been avoided, but their automatic ordering systems, and the lack of monitoring of those automatic ordering systems started with toilet rolls, then tissues, paper towels and whole aisles out of stock. “Then the closure of the borders created a run on all of the food. They actually ran out of food for two days and it was the independent industry that fed the country for three days and then we were all trying to scamper to play catch up.” As Victoria plans to slowly reopen again, Mr Ingpen will attempt to stay ahead of the curve when it comes to servicing the needs of Mount Evelyn residents. “We’re travelling really well. We’ve still got some holes on our shelves but we’ve got more staff and bigger orders. While customers are slightly up, it’s the basket size that’s up as more people are eating at home.”
Car show cash for hospital The Rotary Club of Wandin’s Custom Car and Bike Show donated $17,000 to the Royal Children’s Hospital this week. The Rotary Club which normally conducts six shows over the summer months saw three shows cancelled due to bad weather and the Covid-19 pandemic. Along with the $17,000 to the RCH, Wandin Rotary donated over $3500 to local community organisations and contributed to the $10,000 the club donated towards the Bush Fire Appeal. Rotary Club of Wandin President Dennis Hoehne said this result was outstanding considering the cancellation of the three shows and thanked sponsors and supporters, while looking forward to putting on car shows in the future.

Hospital beds in the Great Hall of the Royal Exhibition Building, Melbourne, in 1919 during the Spanish Flu pandemic. Pictures: MUSEUMS VICTORIA
Nurses and patients at Carlton Gardens in 1919 during the pandemic.
Recalling the Spanish flu The Spanish Influenza virus was first detected in Victoria in December 1918. The Public Health Department provided free influenza vaccine but local Councils were asked to set up stations for inoculations and also provide hospital accommodation. Healesville Shire was very fortunate to have a proactive doctor, Dr Reginald Arthur Parker, as its Medical Officer. By the end of November 1918 he had already organised a supply of vaccine for the community. He had also contacted the Education Department to ask permission to use the school facilities as a hospital “in the event of a large number of cases occurring’. In a letter to the editor of the Healesville Guardian he asked owners of suitable ‘weekenders’ to make them available for the purpose of isolation if required. A team of volunteers was organised, especially those with nursing experience, but also others to serve as orderlies, cooks and cleaners. Tents were erected in the school ground, and even the floor of the shelter shed was paved, in case an extra ward was required. By February 1919 the temporary hospital was ready. Donations of all sorts had been received: from beds and chairs to a hand bell and egg cups. Supplies of food were also promised including vegetables, milk and jams. By 3 March 1919 there were 23 patients in the hospital, one of whom was the matron, Nurse Bolan. The local police were not immune - Constable Deeley succumbed in late February, and again in July at which time he was taken to hospital. Dr Parker, working day and night, was noted for his ‘cheery word and a dose of optimism’. Dr Vogler of Yarra Glen was appointed Health Officer for the East Riding of the Eltham Shire in March 1919 which included Tarrawarra, Yarra

He reported in May that he had attended 10 cases of influenza since the beginning of the year - five were fevers only, one involved mild pulmonary symptoms, and four were very serious. Of the more serious cases none had been inoculated; two people had died. His report to Council does not mention hospital facilities. In February 1919 Councillor Smedley had suggested that unoccupied ‘Banool’ on the Yarra Glen-Eltham Road be leased for hospital purposes, however, the owner Mr Ramsay was not willing to release the property. A meeting was held in March 1919 between representatives of all Victorian municipalities and the State Premier. The former requested that the State Government bear the cost of fitting up and maintaining hospitals for flu patients but the Cabinet ruled that it would only meet half the costs. This included providing ambulances for transfer of patients. At Healesville, Robert Gilbert had provided a ‘special horse and vehicle’ for the purpose. In June 1919 the Department of Health enquired of the Eltham Council what provision it had made. The Council advised that it had paid the Defence Department £5 for a motor ambulance body. This was being fitted by Mr Cochrane of Watsons Creek ‘on to his

Easter (18-20 April) brought a new surge in cases of influenza in Healesville with the influx of holiday makers. Many people were treated at home, but up to 14 cases were taken to the temporary hospital. Another surge occurred in July with 10 cases hospitalised and Coranderrk reporting eight of its residents struck by the disease. The Steels Creek State School was closed for three weeks during July due to influenza cases, and the Yarra Glen Football Club had to forfeit its match on 2 August against Healesville due to the number of its players ‘laid up with Influenza’. At a meeting on 4 August Dr Vogler advised Eltham Council that all church services and other public gatherings be prohibited in the East Riding for two weeks, unless held in the open air, due to another outbreak of cases in Yarra Glen. A new bank manager arrived at the State Savings Bank in Healesville in mid-July. He was
unwell when he arrived but, against medical advice, continued with his work. On 25 July he became so ill that he had to be removed to the hospital, and notwithstanding all the care and attention bestowed upon him by Dr Parker and the staff, he died on 2 August. He was 34 years old and married with three children. A couple of weeks later William Henry Hargreaves, a 43-year-old labourer and timber worker, died from influenza which had coincided with a severe attack of Bright’s disease. William, the eldest son of Josiah Hargreaves of Dixons Creek, lived in Healesville with his wife and five children below the age of 12 years, the youngest being only three months old. The financial assistance from the State Government ceased on 18 September. At the end of September Healesville was declared to be free of influenza and the temporary hospital was fumigated prior to the buildings being handed back to the Education Department. A sale of redundant equipment was held on 23 October 1919. The Eltham Shire sold its motor ambulance body and four canvas stretchers by auction at the Yarra Glen market on 24 November for a total of five pound.

NEWS
Out again from lockdown By Romy Stephens Yarra Ranges residents were out in force last week as Covid-19 restrictions began to ease and favourable weather was on display. At 11:59pm on 12 May, restrictions lessened to allow for visiting family and friends and a maximum gathering of up to 10 people outdoors and five visitors in the home. The new restrictions also permitted golf, walking groups, fishing and hiking, meaning many flooded to local golf clubs, parks and reserves. The 1000 steps was among numerous Parks Victoria managed sites that reopened on 13 May. Local walkers and joggers weren’t deterred by the one-way traffic modification, with plenty getting their long-awaited fitness hit over the days following. The carpark was busy at Lillydale Lake, as plenty of larger groups enjoyed a more social walk or run. Meanwhile, Warburton Golf Club saw golfers of all ages appear on the course as early as 8am on 13 May. On 17 May Premier Daniel Andrews announced that cafes, restaurants and pubs will be able to reopen their doors from 1 June. “The hospitality industry is one of the pillars of the Victorian economy and has been among the hardest hit by this pandemic - reopening the venues we all love is a critical piece of the puzzle in saving jobs and restoring our local communities,” Mr Andrews said in a statement. These venues will be able to serve meals to up to 20 people at a time per enclosed space and tables must be spaced at least 1.5m apart.
The 1000 Steps reopened on 13 May but traffic was restricted to one-way.

Large groups came together to exercise at Lillydale Lake after restrictions were eased last week.
From page 1 A spokesperson from VicForests said there was extensive academic evidence that rejected claims that native timber harvesting increases bushfire risk. “Many academics and fire experts agree that harvesting does not elevate fire risk. We work with partner agencies and use scientific research to develop a harvest program that protects the environment and mitigates the impacts of bushfires,” the spokesperson said. “VicForests is committed to the sustainable management of forest areas allocated to it for harvesting. We take great care to protect potential habitat and high conservation values, especially following fire. “VicForests is proud that its ecologically sensitive approach also supports recovering regional families, communities and townships that have been impacted by the fires.“ mailcommunity.com.au

FOCUS ON … EDUCATION
Cire working through virus Two milestone achievements have emerged from Covid-19 restrictions and have further strengthened the leadership role of Cire Services in delivering flexible and quality learning opportunities to people of all ages. They have provided an exciting and innovative road map for the future across Cire’s core operations of Cire Community School, Cire Training and Hubs and Cire Children’s Service. The Community School has secured registration for upper primary education at its Yarra Junction campus with grades 5 and 6 likely to commence in 2021. Also at Yarra Junction, a new hospitality training centre was completed recently at a cost of more than $600,000 to further engage students and help provide realistic career pathways. The state-of-the-art facility is a major boost for the local tourism industry where operators have identified a skills gap in hospitality and related services. Meanwhile the Covid-19 switch to online delivery of teaching and learning has opened up exciting new windows of opportunity. Training and Hubs has enjoyed higher levels of engagement among some learners with flexible delivery to enable students to continue with, or commence their studies. At the Community School, where most students have been working from home, virtual platforms have enabled teachers to welcome online guests and subject experts who would otherwise be beyond reach. Cire CEO, Gus Seremetis commended all educators and support staff across the not-for-profit for the way in which they have risen to the challenge and embraced change so rapidly to continue to keep people of all ages engaged in their learning, connected and supported. She described the grades 5 and 6 registra-
tion and the new hospitality and training facility as particularly significant, providing much to look forward to in the future. “They clearly demonstrate Cire’s commitment to meeting the needs of young people in our region, especially those who require a positive alternative to mainstream education,“ Ms Seremetis said. Cire’s capacity and agility has been further highlighted by the way it has responded to the Covid-19 restrictions, providing for its learners ranging from pre-schoolers at Children’s Services to teenagers at the Community School through to seniors and other community members, including the vulnerable and socially isolated, who access services and programs through Cire Training and Hubs. Virtual delivery has varied between Cire operations subject to the restrictions and, where they have continued on site, government safety measures and social distancing have been strictly enforced. Community School students working from home are using Google Classrooms to stay connected with their teachers and peers and engaged in their learning. Google Meet, with voice and video conferencing, has enabled guest presenters to join in remotely. For those struggling with online learning, Cire’s bus drivers have gone beyond the call of duty to deliver individualised work packs and collect completed tasks. Children’s Services uses Facebook and YouTube to reach out to youngsters at home. Cire educators have gone virtual with the launch of the Cire Kids Hub, delivering activities such as story time, including the significance of Anzac Day, craft activities, and cooking and packing a healthy lunch box. With the recent easing of restrictions, Cire Community School’s campuses will re-open
in stages, Children’s Services will continue to operate as normal, and Cire Training and Hubs sites remain closed.

Kevin celebrates being able to play golf again.
12397525-HM36-18
After Covid-19 restrictions were eased at 11:59pm on 12 May, it took less than eight hours for Warburton Golf Club members to make the most of their newfound freedom. The first lot of golfers, otherwise known as the icebreakers, were walking down the first fairway before 8am on 13 May. A field of 40 plus for stableford said something about the commitment of members at Warburton. Despite needing to shake off some rust, Ron Hottes secured a win with a total of 34 points. Trevor Porter also made a healthy return, with 33 points to snare the runner-up voucher. Balls only went down to 32, so there were plenty of scores on that number. There were no nearest the pins due to Covid-19 restrictions but this didn’t worry players, who were just happy to be back out swinging. The club’s 16 May stableford was played under sunny skies and on a course in pristine conditions. With a bumper field of 60 plus, there were two winners. A-Grade was taken out by president John Hall, with a solid 36 points. The B-Grade voucher was won by gun cricketer, footballer, and golfer, Ryan Smith, accruing 37 points. A.J. Johnston grabbed the runner-up prize with 36 points. The balls extended to 33, meaning conditions were still tough. Warburton Golf Club is now open with numerous guidelines players should adhere to. Players will be able to make bookings as of 12 May by calling the clubhouse as usual. Players will not be able to turn up and walk out onto the course. Golf can now be played in groups of four and the club is urging everyone to abide by social distancing measures. The club will continue with its Wednesday and Saturday competitions. Until further notice all competitions will be stableford.
