New Mayor Cr Colleen Gates stands alongside new Dputy Mayor Cr Paul Morgan

The team at Captain’s Retreat - Emma, Susan, Tina, Karin and Melissa - celebrate their RACV award

Mayor and Deputy election

Captain’s Retreat

On Friday 7 November, Cr Colleen Gates was unanimously elected as Mayor of Hobsons Bay by her fellow Councillors with Cr Paul Morgan unanimously elected Deputy Mayor.

The winner of the RACV Tourism Awards, People’s Choice Award for Guest Satisfaction, has been announced – and this is not the first time The Captain’s Retreat has won, picking up the same award back in 2011. The aim of the Captain’s Retreat, located on The Strand, is to provide the visitor with a relaxed and comfortable ‘home away from home’ experience. Imagine this. A guest wanders into the communal area. They mention it’s their birthday and, within minutes, another guest has got out their guitar and begun serenading them with a Spanish ‘Happy Birthday’. This has been known at the Williamstown B&B. The heritage listed house which has five rooms (all with ensuite) was originally built in 1862 and then extended for a sea captain in 1880.

Cr Gates said she believed 2015 would be an exciting year for Hobsons Bay and that Council would focus on delivering the results that support their strategic vision. The new Mayor said she looked forward to working with her fellow Councillors to deliver the upgrades, projects and services most in need for Hobsons Bay. “I will also continue to advocate, to get our big community issues on the agenda of decision makers. These include economic development and better public transport.” She also acknowledged the outgoing Mayor Cr Sandra Wilson for a year of hard work and dedication. Cr Morgan, also elected in 2012, says he feels honoured to represent the community in which he was born and grew up. He too sees economic development as a priority issue. “Along with the Mayor, I will work hard to tackle economic development in the region, one of the biggest issues facing the municipality,” he said. “We are already working closely with other councils, local businesses and agencies, to provide our community with security and growth beyond the changes we are seeing in the manufacturing sector.”

Surveying the economic landscape for new jobs

We’re coming up to a time of economic change, but there are many opportunities for new investment, diversification and the creation of new jobs. Council is developing an economic strategy in partnership with key stakeholders, and is asking local businesses, industry and stakeholders to have their say on what they think are the priorities and opportunities for the area. Two surveys are available, one for local businesses and industry, and another for interested stakeholders. Both surveys close at 5pm on Monday 24 November. For more information or to participate, visit ‘Have Your Say’ on the Hobsons Bay City Council website.

Growing your own business

If you are a local business you may be interested in a two-day workshop taking place on 18 November and 2 December entitled E-success – Gain, Maintain and Retain Customers. At a subsidised rate of $500+GST (usually $2000), you will learn how online and digital marketing strategies can improve the competitiveness of your business. For more information email business@ hobsonsbay.vic.gov.au or phone 9932 1000.

Citizen of the Year awards You may have been fortunate enough to see the Unsung Heroes exhibition back in July. We want to see more and more of these community members become ‘sung’ rather than ‘unsung heroes.’ No doubt you know someone who should be recognised for their achievements - someone who excels in sport or art maybe, or someone who gives many hours to a community organisation. If you know of someone who provides a valued contribution to the following areas – community service, sport, art and culture, environment, and business and economic development – please fill out a nomination form by going to the following address: http://www.hobsonsbay.vic.gov.au/ Council/Citizen_Awards. Alternatively you can pick up a nomination form at the Civic Centre, 115 Civic Parade. Nominations are open to all individuals who live, work or study in Hobsons Bay. The closing date is 5pm, 28 November 2014.

Youth need to be heard

VCAT ‘no’ to townhouses

Robyn Broadbent

(Joe Mastroianni)

By Ebru Halimoff Youth policies are necessary to ensure young Australians are not radicalised, a Victoria University youth work academic has claimed. Professor Robyn Broadbent says targeted government support would better engage radicalised young Australians who otherwise turn on their own country. Professor Broadbent said clear youth policies needed to be implemented by the Australian government to ensure the value of Australian youth was recognised and supported. “No one is joining the dots about why the young men making news as ‘terrorists’ in Australia are becoming marginalised and disengaged,” she said. “This is not about religion or politics – it’s about them seeing themselves as having no future, no seat at the table, no chance for active participation in the governance of their community and of their country.” Professor Broadbent stressed the seriousness of the issue would evolve without a policy or minister for youth to represent young Australians. She said a national youth policy should embrace all of the issues that impact on young people, including education, health, welfare, employment, gender equality and civic participation. Professor Broadbent suggests that Australia develop formal policies that mandate a youth voice at every level of government, especially of young people from disadvantaged or minority backgrounds. Victoria University Greens Group is hosting a free community forum, which focuses on terror, policing, ASIO, Islam and the community, on November 13, 6pm, at Victoria University, Ballarat Road, Footscray.

NEWS

Plans to build four two-storey townhouses on a single block in South Kingsville have been knocked back by the state’s planning tribunal. The Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) has refused to grant a permit to Dajvis Andonov for 34 Saltley Street, saying although subdivision was common, the applicant was trying to put too much on one site. Hobsons Bay council had refused to grant a permit based on neighbourhood character and lack of sunlight in private open space for future residents at the site. VCAT member Bill Sibonis said the applicant had correctly noted there were many examples of two-storey dwellings in the neighbourhood. “It appears to be emerging as a preferred form of medium-density housing,” Mr Sibonis said. “In Saltley Street, however, the original, modest housing stock predominates. The prevailing scale in this section of the street is single storey.” He said this did not mean a two-storey development could or should not be approved for the site, but it needed to be designed in a way that fitted the “low-profile nature of the streetscape”. Mr Sibonis said the council’s concerns were justified about lack of sunlight for the building’s private open space. He said it might be an indication the applicant was trying to accommodate too many buildings on the block. Goya Dmytryshchak

Cumming in state poll

Crime bust made easy

(Martina Gemmola)

By Ebru Halimoff Maribyrnong councillor Catherine Cumming will run as an independent candidate in the forthcoming state election. Cr Cumming, a councillor for 17 years, said she hoped Footscray would become a marginal seat to attract more funds and attention from state governments. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we continue to stay as a safe Labor seat, we wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t attract the same grants or major project money,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It just makes sense that we become a marginal seat.â&#x20AC;? Cr Cumming, 42, said the mix of long-term voters and new voters moving into the area was a good political mix that would help stop the neglect of the area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I do believe the voters are changing in this area and people who have been here the longest are changing the most because they understand theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re being neglected,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen it all.â&#x20AC;? Cr Cumming said Footscray was in need of an independent MP to work with the community, for the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve created a little bit of attention to Footscray, but it deserves a lot more attention, the kind that an independent would give the area,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Real people should get into Parliament. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great to have real people in Parliament who are not scared to speak up for the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need to have a community voice rather than a party voice. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think we get sick of politicians and political speech and not saying what should be said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hope Footscray has grown up enough to change.â&#x20AC;? The state election will be on Saturday, November 29.

An alleged crime racket involving a Footscray grocery and a gift shop was smashed in almost comical fashion on Friday. Most of the nine people arrested turned up to the shops in the midst of police raids and with allegedly stolen goods in tow, unaware of what was unfolding, a police spokeswoman said. The raids started at a grocer in Nicholson Street, Footscray, at 11am, when two Coburg residents, aged in their 60s, were arrested. Investigators then searched the coupleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s storage unit and, as police were there, the manager of a gift shop next door turned up with allegedly stolen goods, the spokeswoman said. It prompted police to then search the gift shop, the shopâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s owners storage unit and his car, where more items were found. Another five people, aged between 29 and 36, then turned up to the gift shop, also bearing allegedly stolen goods, while police were still there. By dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s end about $500,000 in stolen property had been seized and nine people are expected to be charged. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Police recovered large volumes of retail items, such as make-up, vitamins, alcohol and other personal items, from predominantly major retailers,â&#x20AC;? Acting Superintendent Tony Long said in a statement. These were then allegedly being sold on to smaller retail outlets. Tammy Mills, The Age

People experiencing anxiety and depression will be able to access more support close to home after the Anxiety Disorders Association of Victoria (ADAVIC) received a $2958 grant from the Hobsons Bay Community Fund. ADAVIC executive director Nathan Hobbs said the not-for-profit group gets no government funding and the grant would enable it to reach more people through lectures and workshops in Hobsons Bay. “We’ve got a lot of feedback from participants and people in the Altona region that there isn’t much out there,” he said. “We live in a society that tends to be high-stress with a lot of the problems that we deal with on a day-to-day basis. “There’s a range of different symptoms but for some people – and this is probably true of

people at our support group in Altona – it can really impact their day-to-day living,” he said. “Anxiety can really stop people getting things done, especially when it comes to social anxiety.” Mr Hobbs said the educational sessions could help some people manage their anxiety without medication. The community fund grant awards will be presented tomorrow night at the Kooringal Golf Club, which has joined Signcraft, Qenos, Compton Green, UMS and Star Weekly as corporate supporters. The community fund is allocating $30,678 in grants to 11 causes this year, and it has given more than $120,000 to 55 community groups in its nine years. Goya Dmytryshchak

Renovators looking for their next challenge will find it with this Footscray property. The house’s mint-green color flows throughout the inside and into three bedrooms with polished floorboards – two with built-in wardrobes, one of which has a ceiling fan; a lounge room with polished floorboards, gas wall heater, ceiling fan and air-conditioner; meals zone; and original kitchen. The original bathroom awaits the wave of a renovator’s magic wand, while a toilet is in the laundry. Off-street parking for one car is included. The property is ideal for people who aren’t keen on gardening as there’s little to maintain in the front or back yards. It’s close to Whitten Oval, Footscray West and Footscray primary schools, West Footscray train station, Barkly Street shops and eateries and Western Hospital. Princes Highway is a short drive away.

Within a walk of Newport station and shops and just 10 kilometres from the CBD, this smart townhouse has designer elements that deliver extra panache. Stretches of lovely polished floorboards and a combo of white fittings, black accents and off-white wall colour provides a fresh, crisp feel to spacious rooms. Three large bedrooms up top include the main with a wall of mirrored robes and a sleek en suite. A downstairs study could be a fourth bedroom. The main bathroom is a stylish affair, with a freestanding bath sitting on black floor tiles. The glossy kitchen has a stone-wrapped island bench under feature pendant lights, black splashback and a 900mm gas cooker under a canopy rangehood. Gas ducted heating and refrigerated cooling take care of changing seasons, and other perks are an alarm system and a colour-video intercom. The compact backyard has a timber deck surrounded by river stones and there’s a single remote-controlled garage.

This property is ideal for people who work from home, with a studio out the back and separate from the house. The weatherboard residence has plenty of old-age appeal such as an ornate fireplace and ceiling rosettes, original polished floorboards, fretwork and dado panelling. There are three bedrooms with built-in wardrobes; a bathroom with spa and European-style laundry; lounge room with split-system; separate family-meals zone with split-system; and a kitchen with stainless-steel appliances and timber benchtops. A courtyard with undercover area, paving and low-maintenance gardens dotted with citrus, blood orange and lemon trees, vegetables and herbs are included. And the new owners can embrace summer with the kids by walking down to nearby Williamstown beach or heading to the shops or restaurants for an ice cream. Williamstown and St Mary’s primary schools, Williamstown Beach station and Fearon and Robertson reserves are close.

Here’s a house that’s full of character and located in a convenient spot, right in the heart of Yarraville. The weatherboard residence has been renovated with polished floorboards flowing through three bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, including the main bedroom which has direct access to a tiled bathroom. A toilet is separate. Floorboards also enhance the lounge-dining room and kitchen which has stainless-steel appliances and timber benchtops. High ceilings, leadlight windows, roman blinds, ornate cornices and downlights are included. French doors from the living hub lead to an undercover area with decking. Beyond this is a water feature, manicured garden and cleverly concealed double garage. Established gardens out front add appeal. The 313-square-metre property is in a cul-de-sac with easy access to Cruickshank Park, shops, restaurants, a kindergarten, Yarraville West, Kingsville and St Augustine’s primary schools and Yarraville train station.

and colourful patterned feature walls, bringing each room to life with its own punchy personality. Polished floorboards anchor every room while stepped cornices and ceiling rosettes inject more of that classic character – which means it delivers the best possible balance of period elegance and present day excellence. A family room in the centre of the house is adjoined by a separate dining room which can be closed off by french doors; it also provides fourth bedroom flexibility if desired.

A second fireplace warms the family room and timber dado panelling refine the decor. The main bedroom is up next, with built-in wardrobe and en suite and, directly across the hallway, the character-filled main bathroom with dark timber vanity, red and white checkered floor tiles, shower and bathtub combination; a European laundry is tucked away in the corner. Towards the rear is a luxuriously large family-dining space with jarrah floorboards flowing through to the designer kitchen. Striking blue wood-panelled cabinets with polished timber benchtop are contrasted

with stainless-steel dishwasher, oven, gas cooktop and rangehood. The meals area opens through double doors to an inviting undercover deck enhanced by bistro blinds and an established garden backdrop. Ducted heating and cooling and a bright, versatile loft contribute further to the evident quality of this vibrant house. It’s in a cul-de-sac close to Williamstown Beach station, schools, the Botanic Gardens and the beach. Esther Lauaki
