Businesses targeted in crime spree

Ruby Seminara and Anita Frost at Aqua Hair and Beauty

“Depending on where the time is recorded it can be back on Queensland time,” he said.

“Our till was found on the side of the road to Wooyung. It was right next to the creek so it might have been the same guy [who broke into Soco Espresso Bar the previous night, whose cash drawer was discovered in Mooball Creek].

“There’s a bit of cost as we have had to make the building more secure but the community has been a fantastic support.”

Aqua Hair and Beauty Salon owner Anita Frost said her business was broken into around 9.30pm that night with cash and tools stolen.

“We left work at 9pm, and the apprentice came in at 8am and the front door was unlocked,” Ms Frost told The Weekly.

“Her first thought was that we’d forgotten to lock the door and then she realised the lock was broken. Everything was out of the till and all of her gear was all over the floor.

“We had the float taken out of the till which was two or three hundred dollars and the girls’ tips ‒ which they save for the end of the year.”

Ms Frost said the girls’ tips were about $100 but she would replace them.

“My apprentice’s gold scissors were taken and they took two Tangle Teezer brushes; but we had two new ones there they didn’t take,” she said.

“The police said the guy must have had gloves on because the tips were in a glass vase that had been cleaned but there were no prints.

“The IGA has footage and a photo of a guy walking around at 4.30am and they think it’s the same guy that broke into the Pottsville Pizzeria, so God knows what he was doing in between.

“He was obviously working his way down the coast.”

Ms Frost said the sliding front door had been forced open to gain access.

The alleged thief was caught on CCTV at The Stunned Mullet

“I’ve been here for nine years and we have bars on the back and I completely trusted the front door,” she said.

“We had all our Christmas stock in there which was worth loads of money, but he left that.

“If people have those sliding doors you need to have a piece of wood against it which will stop it sliding open even if they break the lock.”

There were also reports of goods being taken from annexes and around people’s caravans at Pottsville North Holiday Park, with some guests leaving after the alleged thefts.

The Pottsville Pizzeria was broken into at around 4.30am that morning with cash stolen.

Owner Valter Arenzani said his cash register was smashed and the float was stolen.

“They broke in the door, smashed the cash register and stole the float which was about $400,” he said.

“There was a key in the top of the cash register so he was an idiot.

“It will cost $700 to replace the cash register and I’m putting a sensor light and camera in so that will record if anyone comes in.

“I’m insured so I should be okay, but everyone in the community is pretty upset.”

Tweed Police Acting Inspector Rod Morris said there was no proof at this stage that the break-ins were connected.

“The scenes would have been forensically examined, but unfortunately no one has been apprehended at this stage,” Acting Insp Rod Morris said.

By Jo Kennett AN ALLEGED thief targeting Tweed Coast business may have been scouting sites beforehand according to their owners, as Tweed Police are investigating several shocking breakins across Tweed Coast on Thursday, October 15.

The trouble for business owners started around 8.45pm, when an unknown person attempted to break into a Chinderah service station with police called to the business.

At 9.20pm, possibly the same man broke into The Stunned Mullet fish and chip shop at Cabarita.

Owner Bruce Zillman said the alleged thief was only in the shop for about five minutes and he was captured on CCTV footage, which was handed over to police.

“He thoroughly cased the place; he wasn’t in a hurry,” Mr Zillman told the Weekly.

“He went through everything and took the till and the tip jar.

“We have residents above and behind us so it was pretty brazen.”

Mr Zillman said the same person may have broken into a Pottsville business that same night, despite being recorded as entering minutes after The Stunned Mullet break-in.

‘The Byron Line’ fairytale

*Redeemable for 1 month from publication date

Shame on the government

The Casino-Murwillumbah line, worth many billions, traverses through four North Coast shires with a combined population of 250,000. Then there’s six million tourists per year to the region. For little more than the combined cost of efforts to remediate dangerous traffic congestion in Byron Bay, plus the cost of a bike track, trains could be running on 132 kilometres of the Casino-Murwillumbah train line. Which would provide transport for 250,000 North Coast residents, millions of tourists, reduce traffic, provide per manent jobs and economic benefits around the region, while saving taxpayers billions.

In 2009, Geoff Provest, the National Party Member for Tweed said, “the NSW [ALP] government has missed an opportunity to secure federal funds on offer for major infrastructure projects which could ensure an extension of the line from Casino to Murwillumbah via Byron Bay and across the border to the Gold Coast Airport. Extending the Murwillumbah train line to the Gold Coast is a perfect project for federal infrastructure funding.”

What happened to that plan?

Eddie Obeid of course. In 2011 the LNP knew they could back track on their promise for trains on the Casino-Murwillumbah line and still be elected, thanks to the ALP scandal. Now they want to get rid of the train line, and all the pesky people who want trains on our tracks, regardless of the cost to taxpayers. Given the Maguire/ Berejiklian scandal, Mr Provest may have to perform another backflip and convince his Sydney colleagues to get the trains running, build the rail connection to the Gold Coast as promised, to hang on to his seat. Or has the government calculated they can continue to ignore the transport needs of the North Coast and still win the next election, even if they lose Tweed?

It became even clearer to me after reading the notes from the recent Byron Shire Council meeting about ‘The Byron Line’ that this project is completely unrealistic.

We n ow h ave t wo s h i re s, Richmond Valley and Tweed, ready to build a rail trail (with funding committed from state and federal governments) and the legislation now through the NSW parliament to enable construction of this hugely usable rail trail asset, yet Byron Shire Council continues to blatantly risk the high likelihood of having nothing developed at all, and even having their part of the corridor sold off due to lack of use.

The engineering company Arcadis has agreed to look at the bridges (digitally) at a cost of $33,000 per bridge, but they don’t seem to know how many bridges there are. This is an extraordinary amount of money just to look at bridges. This doesn’t include the money already spent which I believe to be over $300,000 of Byron Shire ratepayers’ money.

They have been unable to access all of the bridges due to extreme vegetation growth and want Byron Council to clear it prior to inspection. The NSW Government has no budget to assist.

If Byron Council had consulted with the Northern Rivers Rail Trail (NRRT), they would have been able to access a lot of this information for free, instead of paying Arcadis $33,000 per bridge. The Arcadis report thinks there are only seven bridges between Byron and Mullumbimby, whereas there are actually 20 bridges. 20 times $33,000 equals $660,000.

So this, with the original $300,000, is almost a million dollars that NRRT could have saved Byron Council, had NRRT’s engineering expertise been on board.

I don’t know about you, but I resent my rates being spent on a fairytale project that will never come to fruition, while our corridor languishes endlessly, waiting for Byron Council to awake to the realities.

Listen to the people

Last Thursday the government passed legislation to close sections of the Casino to Murwilumbah railway line. The Casino to Bentley section will be closed and the

Murwillumbah to Crabbes Creek section, and the railway tracks ripped up for a rail trail.

The government and Labor have stated there has been extensive community consultation to find out if this community wants to have trains running again or a bike path.

This isn’t true. There has been no proper community consultation at all, except for the rail trail group’s endless lobbying.

Abigail Boyd, NSW Greens MLC, stated, “When properly built, funded and designed, public transport has immeasurable social, economic and environmental benefits for the health and wellbeing of entire communities.

The delivery of services such as the passenger rail on the Casino to Murwillumbah line should be considered a core part of the job of government.”

The Greens MP tabled over 10,000 petitions supporting rail services and against ripping up the railway tracks.

The Greens asked for an inquiry into the matter to allow the people of the Northern Rivers a chance to have a voice, but the government and Labor voted against it.

One thing that has been very clear recently with the Royal Commission into Aged Care and the COVID-19 deaths in aged care is that elderly people in our society are not cared for they in the way they deserve. The lack of rail services in this region is yet another example of this. If the needs of elderly people were seriously considered the government would be paying for this railway with no problem. This is a shameful thing.

We are in a climate emergency, and we need to cut transport emissions urgently, and we have a railway sitting there which could do the job, and take cars and buses off the roads. We’ve seen the extreme weather events they predicted with floods and fires, and we need action now. This railway would be such a quick and easy way to do that.

Traffic at Byron has been as bad as the traffic in Sydney for years now because Byron is packed with tourists. Having a train to enable people to move out from Byron and around the region would be the best tourism investment.

Byron Council is organising to have rail services around Byron Shire, and Casino and Murwillumbah will have a bike path. It makes no sense.

The Casino to Murwillumbah railway is one of the great rail lines of the worlds. There is no more beautiful rail line. There are thousands of kilometres of unused railway lines in NSW. Why is this area with a rapidly growing population and huge tourist industry being singled out for closure while other areas are left alone? This is

not a decision that helps the people of this community and it is not one they want, 10,000 petitions are simply ignored. The people of this community need to be heard.

We need another supermarket

I think we should have Woolworths in our town and there is a lot of reasons. I am a pensioner and it is very hard getting around to do shopping. I have really bad arthritis in my knees, making it hard to get up a lot of steps. Going up to Coles supermarket is a no-no. The ramp is too steep, and when you want to use the lift it is never in use, and gets locked off for the boys to get the trolleys up top. There is also not enough disabled parking close to the door.

I think it would be a great idea and I like Woolworths a lot, but it is too far to travel up and back from.

Joy Christensen, Murwillumbah

I welcome a Woolies

A Woolworths store at the site of the former bowls and sports club site in Murwillumbah; yes please, for several reasons being; healthy competition to Coles; Coles car park is often too congested; the dreaded ramp up to Coles, more choice of products; I love shopping at Woolworths but driving to Tweed or Cabarita is too far; more jobs for more locals. Who knows how long the site will remain an ugly, unsightly, derelict, soul destroying eyesore.

The Murwillumbah population is growing and a big, new, bright and modern supermarket is what people need. I can’t think of any reasons for it not to happen.

S Madigan, South Murwillumbah

Censoring of Assange trial

Australian journalist John Pilger has described the trial of Julian Assange as his worst experience of justice in a British court.

The mainstream media has almost blanked out the proceedings with very little information reaching the general public. Julian has been held in the worst prison in Britain, locked down for 23 hours per day, completely isolated from other prisoners, and given very limited access to his lawyers.

Julian is an Australian citizen, yet the government has abandoned him.

PM Scott Morrison has said he should face the music which is a potential 175 years in US jails, his ‘crime’ ? Telling the truth about war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan. The US Government has sanctioned prosecutors at the International Criminal Court who are currently investigating war crimes committed in Afghanistan and have stated they can and will extradite journos from anywhere in the world who publish

US secret documents. If the US Government gets away with this extradition, no one is safe.

I will write a poem, instead of a diatribe, to warn my fellow humans of where we have arrived.

Towers appear everywhere, so you can stream your shows, but who out there is asking what no-one wants to know?

What’s happening to bees, to bugs, to trees and migrant birds, with these ever-increasing frequencies, by us not seen or heard?

Whats happening to people, bathed in electro-smog?

It seems we’ve been conditioned, much like Pavlov’s dog.

I’m no domestic terrorist, nor am I inept, I see nature under pressure, more than most accept.

We’ve placed our trust in leaders, that oft don’t have the facts, while our next asbestos hurtles down the track.

For subtle electric signalling underpins all life, our frequencies corrupted, by pulses day and night.

So much information, sent silent over waves, are you looking for connection in a sea of microwaves?

Seek independent experts, please research their work, they’re warning of the damage done to nature and the hurt caused to natural systems, by man-made EMF, they’re calling for precaution and calling to protect life on earth for all, our electric atmosphere, the time is now to act, to use your thinking gear.

Early stage 5G is operational at Hospital Hill in Murwillumbah, at Round Mountain (in prime koala habitat) and is proposed for Kingscliff, Murwillumbah (above the P.O), Casuarina and Byron Bay. A new 4G/5G tower is proposed for Chinderah. The public consultation period for the latter three is open now. In Mullumbimby, 5G has not gone ahead due to strong community opposition. It is worth noting that NBN towers operate at early 5G frequencies.

“You go to the pub for a drink, but you go to The Burrow for an experience.”

Claire and Jeff Van de Graaf purchased the site of the former discount store in the main street, “predicting a boom for Cabarita Beach very early on much like Halcyon House did.”

They renovated it into three separate shops, and named the building after St Barths in the Caribbean, where Jeff proposed to Claire, as they thought the coastline was like Cabarita Beach.

“I’ve always had a nostalgia for the building, and as a young girl I would tramp up the beach to buy the muchrenowned potato cakes that used to be sold from there,” Claire told The Weekly.

“We spotted the opportunity to buy the site and to enhance it but keep the architectural integrity of the building, with it being such an original icon and landmark of Cabarita Beach.

By Jo Kennett THE MAIN street of Cabarita is undergoing a transformation with several new businesses opening and previously empty shops coming to life.

Jess Kulken has lived in the Tweed Shire all his life and Bogangar for the last 20 years, and is busy turning the former Cabarita Meats butcher shop into a tapas bar called The Burrow, which should be open by the end of November.

Jess is a carpenter and said for the last 15 years he has been talking about taking over a place to create a tapas bar.

“If I waited until the butcher shop lease had run out it would have been anyone’s game because there are a lot of people coming in from out of town,” Jess said.

“I wanted to create a place with good food and a good atmosphere.

“We’re doing pockets, poke bowls, finger foods, nachos, veggie dahl; we will have a good vegetarian menu.

“We’re getting a mural painted on the side wall by Shmick – a local artist – which will say Caba with native flora and fauna.”

Jess has applied for a licence to have live acoustic music as well.

“I want to support local businesses and will have artisan Soltera rum from local Keri Algar, and a local gin called Stoken, Red Earth on two taps, and an alcoholic Kombucha called Ventura made by two guys in Murwillumbah.

The Burrow will feature some muchloved local identities and have a nostalgic feel.

“Chippa Wilson has a board shaped by Joe Larkin, so we will have that up with some information about Joe,” Jess said.

“We will also have a big black and white picture of Caba from David Rae’s book, Glimpses of the Past.

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Mini jobs boom as local economy bounces back Reverse mortgages one of life’s gambles With the government encouraging self-funded retirees to tap into their home’s equity to get through the current recession, it is time to take a hard look at the pros and cons of reverse mortgages.

Assistant Minister for Superannuation Jane Hume told parliament during the budget debate that retirees should look at the pension loan scheme, as the savings people have put into their family home were part of the retirement income system.

Under the government’s reverse mortgage-style scheme, retirees can take out a loan from the government for living expenses, getting 1.5 times the amount of the pension secured against their real estate.

If retirees want more money from their home’s equity, they can go to a financier for a reverse mortgage. The amount of the loan available depends on your age, the value of your home and any other loans you may have secured against your home.

The difference between a reverse mortgage and a regular home loan is that, with a reverse mortgage, you do not have to make regular interest payments or principal repayments.

Rather, interest payments are added to the loan principal (this is called compounding of interest).

The loan principal, and all accrued interest, are payable when you sell your home, or from your estate when you die.

But business lawyer Tony Mitchell of Stacks Law Firm warns there are some risks for retirees in such action.

“Reverse mortgages are one of life’s gambles,” Mr Mitchell said.

“Both you and the financier are gambling that you will not live longer than the time it takes for your loan principal and compound interest to exceed the value of your equity in your home.”

Under legal protections in place since 2012, borrowers can never owe the financier more than the value of their property, and can remain in their home until they pass away or decide to move out.

“For example, if over many years the amount owing to the financier under your reverse mortgage loan is $400,000, but the value of your home when it is sold is only $350,000, you will not have to pay the $50,000 shortfall to the financier.

“The main risk is the way your loan principal increases as the interest payments are added to it. For example, if you borrow $50,000 on 1 October 2020 at a fixed interest rate of 5% per annum, your interest payment for the month of October will be about $208.

By Jo Kennett JOBS ARE on the rebound in the Tweed Shire, with multiple positions advertised on jobs websites and social media in recent weeks.

After the largest fall in job vacancies on record in May, with more than half of Tweed Shire businesses receiving JobKeeper – one of the highest rates in the state – job vacancies seem to be on the rebound.

The easing of COVID-19 restrictions is helping, with 30 customers per booking allowed at hospitality venues and 30 customers per table – up from a maximum of 10 – as of Friday, October 23.

The biggest surge in jobs in the Tweed Shire seems to be in the hospitality sector, with multiple hospitality businesses advertising on social media for employees in the lead up to the summer holidays.

There are also numerous job vacancies in aged care, trades and other fields.

Tweed Shire Council has nine jobs advertised including three apprenticeships.

They are offering an Electrical Apprenticeship, an Engineering

The Kingscliff Beach Hotel is one of many venues looking for staff to join their team

Mechanical Fitter Apprenticeship and an Engineering Mechanical Heavy Vehicle Apprenticeship.

Manager of Pottsville Beach Motel, Holly Rees, said business had really picked up, leading to them advertising for a junior housekeeper/assistant.

“For the last four or five weeks we have been absolutely flat out,” she said.

“We almost have a full house daily, which is not normal for us.

“The Christmas holidays are starting to book again, which is a relief.

“We are usually fully booked for a good portion of the Christmas holidays by now, but people were not booking for obvious reasons.

“We have had a lot of interest in the role; there are plenty of willing workers ready to give it a shot.”

Younger workers who will have the added bonus of the federal government’s JobMaker wage subsidies of $100 a week for new hires aged 30 to 35 and $200 a week for those aged 16 to 29, however, there are concerns this could lead to employers laying off older workers.

There has been an easing of restrictions on corporate functions, which will see a rise in employment in the region.

As of last Friday, October 16, corporate functions of up to 300 people can now be held at any appropriate premises, including at restaurants, subject to a COVID-safe plan.

From Tuesday, December 1, the number of people who can attend weddings will be lifted to 300 people, subject to the four-square-metre rule indoors and twosquare-metre rule outdoors.

Casuarina cafe owner forgives thieves after community support

By Jo Kennett A CASUARINA cafe owner says he has been blown away by the community support in the wake of an alleged robbery at his business on Wednesday, October 14.

Steve O’Connor and his wife Clare run Soco Espresso Bar, which was robbed in the early hours of the morning.

Around $400 in cash, three louvre windows and the cash drawer were taken, after thieves gained access through a louvre window.

“It’s quite an open site; we are on a corner of a big junction of a wide avenue,” Steve told The Weekly.

“We have tables and chairs and umbrellas down the side, and a small louvred window high up to ventilate the shop.

“At some point someone got up and dismantled the louvres and took them away, and got in and stole the electronic cash drawer which had $400 plus in it.

“The neighbours who live above were up until 1.30am and we got there at 6am, so we think it might have happened in the early hours.

“They have probably removed the louvre and put someone small in and then opened a bigger window to get out.”

Steve said he was disappointed in himself for leaving cash in the till.

“I’m a bit mad at myself that I left money there, as normally there would be no cash in the cafe,” he said.

“We’ve been busy and a bit worn out with the holidays, and we were grateful to get an early finish on Monday and Tuesday.”

Steve said the drawer and louvres were found in the creek at Pottsville by a paddle border.

“He took them to the police, but they didn’t want the louvres; they wouldn’t know what to connect it to,” he said.

“The police came out twice; they were very good.”

It is the first foray into hospitality for the couple who moved from England two years ago.

“In the whole scheme of things, you can’t be angry about it,” Steve said.

“It was probably someone desperate for something, and maybe it fixed a problem for them and they needed it more than us, and we have moved on.

“It’s a little bump in the road, but it’s not the most important thing; no one got hurt.

Works are taking place to build Tweed’s new organic processing facility at the Tweed Resource Recovery and Landfill Centre at Stotts Creek.

Organics facility will be largest in the Northern Rivers Construction of the Tweed's new $7 million organic processing facility is well on the way with the foundations now poured.

The facility will turn green organic waste into useful compost, while reducing the amount of waste going to landfill.

The facility is being constructed and operated by NSW organics recycling business Soilco Pty Ltd at the Tweed Resource Recovery and Landfill Centre – and will be the largest of its kind in the Northern Rivers.

Capable of dealing with nearly 21,000 tonnes of food and garden organics annually, the facility will complement Council's green bin kerbside collection program.

Saving organic waste from landfill not only creates valuable nutrient rich compost, it also reduces the Tweed's greenhouse gas emissions

by around 13,000 tonnes each year - compared to landfilling the same amount of organic waste.

This is because every tonne of organic waste disposed of as landfill is chemically broken down and releases about one tonne of carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2-e) of greenhouse gases - mostly in the form of methane - into the air.

Council’s Director Sustainable Communities and Environment Tracey Stinson said the composting facility will also be operated in an environmentally sustainable way.

“The power needed for the facility will, in part, be offset by a 99kW solar system. We’ll also be capturing rainwater for processing operations and all wastewater produced will be reused in the composting process,” she said.

The facility, due to be operational by September 2021, will be run by Soilco for 10 years, with an additional five-year option for Council to extend.

The project will mainly be funded by Council using reserves that have been collected over a number of years from waste charges. Council has also received financial support from the NSW Environmental Trust as part of the NSW EPA's Waste Less, Recycle More initiative, funded from the NSW State waste levy.

This construction, and additional plans to improve the Tweed Resource Recovery and Landfill Centre, is part of an overall Master Plan of the site connected to Tweed’s Towards Zero Waste target.

A beautiful way to remember The Tweed Valley Cemetery at Eviron offers a range of services and arrangements in a beautiful and peaceful location.

With a wide range of garden and lawn sites suitable for family or individual memorials, Tweed Valley Cemetery can provide for burials, cremations and ash interments in a caring and respectful manner.

The cemetery also offers a naturally beautiful and unique outdoor option to celebrate the life of a loved one, overlooking the duck pond and picturesque gardens.

Services and wakes can be held onsite in the historic non-denominational chapel.

Beautiful options are also available for burials and interment at the Tweed Heads Lawn Cemetery and General Cemetery and the Murwillumbah Lawn and General Cemetery.

Did you know?

There is much to consider when it comes to funerals. Early planning can help ease the strain and ensure your family understands your wishes. Here are some of the things you’ll need to think about: • For a burial, you’ll need a plot and a coffin (the coffin can be made from a number of different materials – cardboard is fine) • For a cremation, you’ll also need a coffin (again cardboard is also fine) • The lowest cost farewell is a direct delivery cremation (no service, no attendance) • There’s nothing stopping you having a ‘live wake’ – a party to celebrate your life while you’re still here to enjoy it – or having your friends and family celebrate your life in whatever way is meaningful to them • You may wish to get a funeral director or celebrant to help with arranging the funeral • Think about an environmentally friendly coffin or ashes container • Optional extras include a church or chapel ceremony, catering, service booklets, flowers, newspaper notice, etc.

• You can also bring your loved one home for up to five days, without embalming in most cases. The body is kept on a refrigeration plate.

Improvement works announced for Tumbulgum exit

Rail trail moves forward

Council is seeking feedback from the community on its plans to improve safety at the intersection of Tweed Valley Way and Riverside Drive (north) at Tumbulgum.

One of the main safety improvements proposed is to close direct access from the Farmers' Market on to Tweed Valley Way. Another safety improvement sought will be to provide greater separation of the left-turn lane into Riverside Drive from the throughlanes on Tweed Valley Way to improve sight distances.

The Black Spot project will also include a longer deceleration lane to turn into Riverside Drive and provide an improved acceleration lane on

Plans to build the Tweed’s stage of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail took a big step forward last week after the NSW Parliament passed legislation to formally close the railway line from Murwillumbah to Crabbes Creek.

Tweed Shire Council General Manager Troy Green said Council welcomed the passage of the legislation which secures the way forward for this new tourism enterprise for the Northern Rivers region.

“This news marks a key milestone for Council’s rail trail project and provides the much-needed initiative the certainty our community has been waiting for and on which we can have a clear conversation,” he said.

“This legislation importantly retains the corridor in public ownership and paves the way for Council to re-engage with our shortlisted design and construction prospective tenderers to bring their rail trail concept designs forward in the next phase of Council’s contract procurement, ahead of a final rail trail design.”

Construction of the 24-kilometre section of the rail trail from Murwillumbah to Crabbes Creek has been jointly funded by the NSW and Australian governments. Council has been engaged as the project manager to oversee design and construction of this section.

Council hopes to be in a position to award a Design and Construct contract early next year, with construction to begin around March 2021 and the Murwillumbah to Crabbes Creek section of the rail trail to be operational by late 2022.

This first stage of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail has received $6.5 million in funding from the Australian Government under its Regional Jobs and Infrastructure Packages Fund, with the NSW Government providing $7.8 million under its Regional Tourism Infrastructure Fund.

For more information on the announcement, read Council’s media release at www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/MediaReleases/2878

Tweed Valley Way for traffic turning left from Riverside Drive.

Works are due to begin in early December.

Black Spot programs are funded based on historic crash data and the severity of injury.

A number of safety works have occurred on this section of Tweed Valley Way in recent years including the construction of a wire rope centre median and the reduction of the speed limit from 100kmh to 80kmh.

To have your say, go to www.yoursaytweed.com.au/blackspot and provide your feedback by Friday 30 October.

Tap into your water mindfulness for Water Night Tweed Shire Council's Manager Water and Wastewater Operations Brie Jowett has joined the Water Night challenge to help lead the Tweed community to improve its relationship with their household taps.

Brie, husband Michael and sons Roy, 8, and Sidney, 6 (pictured), will switch off the taps at 5pm on Thursday (22 October) and draw all their water needs to 5am on Friday from one 10-litre bucket.

Last week the boys prepared the house for Water Night by placing signs on the taps to remind them not to use them.

“The average Tweed resident is using close to 190 litres of water a day against our target of 160 litres,” Brie said.

“The majority of the Tweed relies on the Tweed River for its water and once we start to release from Clarrie Hall Dam to supplement flows in the river we have, on average, just 12 months’ supply of water left at these high consumption rates.

“Water flows in the Tweed River dropped recently so we started to release water from the dam last week.”

Join Brie and her family and register for Water Night at www.waternight.com.au and help turn water mindlessness to water mindfulness.

Outrage as government caves in on koala habitat “We are still waiting for the adoption and implementation of the recommendations of the Upper House Inquiry into Koala Habitat, which included adopting the SEPP (prior to the recent changes), approving the Koala Plans of Management, of which the Tweed has been waiting for five years, and increasing protection of koala habitat.”

Ms James said there is real concern in the Tweed that koala populations are declining.

“The decline has been accelerated by the recent fires in Cudgen and Mooball Nature Reserves, an increase in koalas dispersing into suburban areas looking for habitat, and vehicle strikes on Clothiers Creek Road, Terranora Road and the Pacific Motorway,” Ms James said.

“The fire at Clothiers Creek is still smouldering, and nearby hillsides which are included in Tweed koala habitat mapping are being cleared and no action is being taken.

“A recent visit by Environment Minister Kean gave some hope that koala habitat and protection in the Tweed would be increased as part of his proposals to double koala populations within the state in the next 30 years.

“The Nationals are unlikely to approve such proposals after their recent changes to the SEPP, which were supported by local Nationals member Geoff Provest.

“This is an opportunity for the Tweed Nationals member to show his koala colours and vote against the legislation.”

The move came after the premier stared down a threat last month by the Nationals, led by Deputy Premier John Barilaro, to stop supporting NSW legislation if the government proceeded with the policy.

The Weekly contacted Team Ko a la ’s Je n Hayes and Tweed MP Geoff Provest about the legislation, but did not receive a reply prior to the print deadline.

Free solar - savings up to $600 on electricity bills The NSW Government is trialling a new way to assist people on low incomes with their power bills by installing free solar systems for up to 3,000 eligible households in place of their Low Income Household Rebate. This program aims to improve energy affordability by helping households unlock long terms savings on their electricity bills. While this means you will no longer receive the $285 annual rebate on your electricity bill, you could receive up to $600 in savings per year from your new solar system!

The program is only available to a limited number of households that live in the region and meet the eligibility criteria. When participating in this program households will receive a free, fully installed 3kW solar system in place of their Low Income Household Rebate.

SAE Group are the only approved provider, designing and installing solar systems to eligible homes across Northern NSW. To be eligible you must: - Currently be receiving the Low Income Household Rebate - Agree not to receive the rebate for ten years - Own your own home - Not already have a solar PV system - Live in the North Coast of NSW - Hold a valid Pensioner Concession Card or a Department of Veteran Affairs Gold Card

Fingal’s Auntie Bonnie turns 100

By Jo Kennett FINGAL HEAD’S Bonnie Bjorland celebrated her 100th birthday on Friday, October 15, surrounded by friends and family.

Auntie Bonnie was born and lived most of her life at Letitia Spit, Fingal Head.

She now lives in Wommin Bay Retirement Village and celebrated the big day with friends and family.

Auntie Bonnie says the secret to a long life for her has been “living by the sea.”

“We were better than free as a breeze,” Auntie Bonnie told The Weekly.

“We did a lot of fishing, we lived off fish and seafood” Sister Beryl Lowe, who was there to celebrate with Bonnie’s daughters Noelene and Junee, said she thinks that Auntie Bonnie’s long life can be attributed in part to all that fresh seafood and “natural food brought down from the farm”.

“Mum’s brother had a farm at Yelgun and he used to bring all the veggies down,” Noelene said.

“She is a life member of Twin Towns Garden Club.”

Auntie Bonnie met her future husband, Canadian Henry Bjorland, in Brisbane, where she worked as a seamstress.

“I was making frocks when I was 17,” she said.

“She was a very good seamstress,” daughter Noelene said.

“Someone would need a wedding dress or a suit, and she just made it with no pattern.

“She worked her whole life which set an example for us growing up. She loves a laugh.”

Friends from Twin Towns Garden Club – Rhonda Pettigrew, Kay Bolton and Audrey McDonald – joined Aunty Bonnie for her birthday.

“When I joined the garden club 30 years ago, she met me at the door and hugged me, and she’s been my friend ever since,” Audrey said.

“Every time I went there I got a kiss and a hug. She worked on the cutting table for years.

She is just beautiful.

Auntie Bonnie said she was an avid gardener.

“I loved it and had a bit of everything in my garden. I’ve had a beautiful life.”

Her 80-year-old daughter Noelene said if she has her way, Bonnie would live to 120.

“I’m going to make it so I can reach 100 and she can be here to celebrate,” she said.

By Jo Kennett THERE HAS been outrage among Tweed Shire conservationists after the Berejiklian Government caved into demands to ease restrictions on logging of koala habitat on private land.

The Local Land Services Amendment (Miscellaneous) Bill 2020 was introduced by Agriculture Minister Adam Marshall last Wednesday, October 14.

The legislation removes requirements to protect core koala habitat from logging and unapproved broadscale clearing on private land.

The bill also doubles the period of logging approvals from 15 to 30 years, and stops Councils from being able to require approval for logging, or exclude logging from environmental protection zones.

The new legislation creates “allowable activity land”, which has previously been rezoned from rural zoning to environmental zoning, and permits clearing for “allowable activities”, including buffers, without approval in these environmental zones.

Allowable activities include construction timber, farm forestry, gravel pits, grazing, powerlines, water and gas pipelines, fire breaks, fences, roads, tracks, sheds, tanks, dams, stockyards, bores, pumps, water points and windmills.

It also prevents local environment plans from requiring development consent for Private Native Forestry.

According to Chair of the Koala Inquiry, Cate Faehrmann MLC, 61 per cent of koala habitat is on private land Caldera Environment Centre’s Rhonda James said, “the Liberal Party has caved in to the Nationals”.

“Environment groups had their hopes that the amendments to the Koala SEPP would strengthen the protection of koala habitat,” she said.

“Instead, the policy has been weakened to the point of being ineffective.

By Jo Kennett THE SITUATION is getting dire for people looking for rentals in the Tweed Shire, with vacancy rates running from zero percent in Cabarita Beach/Bogangar to half a percent elsewhere in the shire and prices rising.

With working from home increasingly an option, many people from Sydney and Melbourne have moved, or are looking for somewhere to live in the area.

Along with people priced out of Byron and expats moving to the area from overseas, often buying online, it is making things difficult for local residents.

Christal Alexander has grown up in the Tweed Shire and is raising three children.

“Now we are struggling to get a house, after owning my own houses,” she told The Weekly.

“It now seems impossible to get a rental.

“We either build a house, or renovate, and then flip them and rent in between, but what do we do?

“I’ve never seen it like this and I am hearing that city people are coming in offering more money. When do I, a local born and bred, get a fair chance?

“My three children go to the local Catholic school here and I shouldn’t have to fight for a place to live in my own town.”

Well-known local snake relocator Sarah Mailey is one of many having trouble finding a rental.

“My previous rental was for sale, and I handed in my lease as I was moving to Adelaide to do some work with crocodiles,” Sarah said.

“I moved into my Mum’s, which I was only doing for two weeks before I left, but I ended up getting cold feet, so decided to look for a rental.

“Some rentals are wanting applications before you can even inspect, some are saying once you hand in your application not to call, they will contact you, but not letting you even know you have been declined until it pops up online.

“I’ve been seeing at least three people a day advertising looking for a rental at the moment in our local area, so now I’m looking in Murwillumbah, Banora and Tweed.”

One family from the Gold Coast have a child booked in for school at Pottsville.

“My husband is from the north end of the Gold Coast, but we have friends and connections in Pottsville, and wanted to move

there,” Kate, who preferred not to provide her surname, said.

“We are living with family on the Gold Coast at the moment.

“We have applied for places, but they are gone as soon as they are listed, one place went before it was even advertised.

“We spoke to the school, and they said we would need to put in an application for living outside the catchment, and they will have to make a judgement about whether my daughter can get in.

“If we don’t get in we would have to make a judgement; I’m optimistic it will work out, but as we get closer to school next year it might get more stressful.”

Matthew McNamara is from Phillip Island and had been travelling around Australia with his family when they decided to settle in Pottsville.

“We’ve travelled through the area for many years and always said we’d settle there,” Matthew said.

“My best friend lives in Casuarina and we have many friends in Potty from home. The surfing community really attracted us.”

Unfortunately Matthew didn’t have any luck finding a rental.

“I think COVID has pushed a lot of people north,’ Matthew told The Weekly.

“For now we have settled in Noosa with some friends and are hoping to find something here.”

Yara Halabi moved to Kingscliff from Melbourne five years ago and started looking for a new rental earlier in the year.

“It took a really long time and I only found my place, thank God, because of a break lease,” she said.

“The houses in Kingscliff/Casuarina were so expensive and sometimes there were between 20-25 applications going in per property.

“As a single mum with toddler twins and a four-year-old plus a small dog, I found it almost impossible to find somewhere – as soon as properties came online they disappeared pretty much.

“Ray Real Estate saved the day by getting me into a break lease, but had it not been for them, I’m sure I would still be looking.

“I started actively looking about five months ago and only got into my current home a week ago.”

Other people who have already sold up in Sydney and Melbourne, planning to rent in the Tweed Shire while they look for a home to buy, are expressing shock at how difficult it is to find either.

Teenager and youth nabbed for car thefts Woman charged with domestic violence

TWO ALLEGED car thieves, including a youth, were tracked down and nabbed by Tweed Police on Tuesday, October 13.

Police said they arrested an 18-year-old male and a youth at Dry Dock Road, Tweed Heads, in relation to the theft of a Kia station wagon earlier that morning from a nearby holiday park and stealing a ute from Park Street, Tweed Heads, on Friday, October 9.

“Both males were conveyed to Tweed Heads Police Station. Further enquiries were conducted and the youth was dealt with under the Young Offenders Act before being released,” police said.

The 18-year-old was charged with two counts of vehicle theft and driving whilst unlicensed.

He was released with strict bail conditions and will front Tweed Heads Local Court on Monday, November 2.

Both vehicles have been recovered, forensically examined and returned. However,

a family heirloom ring, from within the Kia station wagon, has yet to be recovered and police are seeking any information regarding its whereabouts.

If you have any information please contact Tweed Heads Police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

A 52-YEAR-OLD woman has allegedly become aggressive towards her 27-year-old relative, resulting in the younger woman locking herself in a bedroom with her two young daughters on Wednesday, October 7.

Police said it was about 6pm when they attended an address at Ash Drive, Banora Point, in response to a domestic dispute.

“The victim, a 27-year-old female, resides at the premises with her two young children,” police said.

“A 52-year-old woman related to the victim had been staying at the premises for a few days.”

Police said during that afternoon, the woman became aggressive towards the 27-year-old and the victim had to lock herself in her bedroom with her children.

“At one stage, the victim asked the woman to not take any more illegal substances,” police said.

“As a result of this, the woman has threatened to stab the victim.”

Police said the woman was allegedly holding a pair of scissors.

The victim contacted police, who arrived a short time later, and observed a pair of scissors in the bedroom of the accused.

“A version was obtained, and as a result, the woman was arrested,” police said.

“Police attempted to escort the accused from the premises, however, the accused resisted these efforts, and as a result, police were forced to place the accused on the ground in efforts to control her.

“Police searched the woman and located a bag of cannabis on her.”

The woman was charged with breaching an AVO, intimidation, and possessing a prohibited drug. She is on conditional bail and is scheduled to front Tweed Heads Local Court on March 23, 2021.

By Jonathon Howard SEVERAL TWEED Shire residents are reporting a phone scam, described as a recorded message claiming to be from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).

Residents are advised that if they receive instructions that their tax file number has been frozen and prompts the resident to ‘press one’ – hang up immediately.

Please note this is a scam and if you are concerned about your tax file number, or you believe you have an outstanding bill with the ATO, please phone them directly on 1800 008 540 to check.

Scam Watch, which was set up to combat scams by the Federal Government, said the threats of arrest and request for unusual payment methods were signs that this was a scam.

“The Australian Tax Office, government agencies and any legitimate business will never threaten you with arrest, or demand immediate payment of a tax debt or fine with unusual payment methods like gift cards, Bitcoin or pre-paid credit cards,” Scam Watch said.

Residents should also note that scam calls could become frequent.

One resident posted online that they had received five phone calls from different mobile numbers.

S c a m Wat c h a d v i s e s residents to hang up the phone or delete the email if you ever get a call or email claiming you will be arrested due to a tax debt.

“Do not call the number provided in the phone m e s s ag e o r e m a i l yo u receive,” Scam Watch said.

“Hang up immediately, even if you’re concerned that the phone call may be legitimate — call the ATO on 1800 008 540 to check.”

Fire brigades keeping busy with several local incidents New fire sign installed

By Jonathon Howard MURWILLUMBAH RURAL Fire Brigade was called to save a cane trailer after it is believed some of the cane trash gathered inside a tractor and ignited on Monday, October 19, at about 2pm.

Murwillumbah Rural Fire Brigade President and Deputy Captain Don Bentley said fire crews concentrated their hoses on keeping the “ram of the trailer from burning”, after the tractor was completely engulfed by flames and destroyed.

“The operation took about 30 minutes to contain the fire and we managed to save the cane trailer,” Deputy Captain Bentley said.

“The trailer survived but the tractor was completely lost, as the pictures show.”

Meanwhile, in a separate incident, Murwillumbah Rural Fire Brigade attended another grass fire near Clothiers Creek Road, north of the M1.

“It’s believed a slasher has possibly hit a rock and started a grass fire on October 6,” deputy captain Bentley said.

“Fire crews were able to contain the fire by lighting some backburns, and were able to contain the fire ground. The operation took several hours.”

Deputy Captain Bentley said he believes the recent grass fires were all accidental, and are difficult to predict.

“I believe, so far, all these grass fires have been accidentally ignited, and there’s really no way for people to predict them,” he said.

“The first one, the big one, was a burn pile, and most recently it was a slasher.

All we’d advise is for people to be mindful of the conditions, but a farmer is entitled to slash their paddock.”

MURWILLUMBAH RURAL Fire Brigade has unveiled their all-new digital LED sign, which can update important fire messages instantly at 1 Kyogle Road, Murwillumbah.

The new sign is hoped to improve the time it takes, and labour required to update the sign, including with current fire conditions, permit dates and other messages to passing motorists and locals.

The new sign cost around $23,000 and was made possible through a massive local fundraising effort that included donations from the Rural Fire Service, ITV Community Grant Initiative, Sunshine Sugar, Murwillumbah Lions Club, Murwillumbah Central Rotary, Condong Bowling Club and members of the public.

Murwillumbah Rural Fire Brigade President and Deputy Captain Don Bentley said the manual sign had been a good system for many years but had run its course.

“Two local photographers also fundraised for the RFS site with family portraits,” he said.

The new sign is equipped with all the bells and whistles including remote access via the internet and can even screen a movie if need be.

The sign was ordered from Signpac in Sydney.

A tractor fire on a Tweed Valley cane field has kept Murwillumbah Fire Brigade busy

Three fire brigades tackled the 17-hectare grass fire near Clothiers Creek Road.

NSW Rural Fire Service Far North Coast Operational Officer Aaron Howard told The Weekly the fire was contained and crews were not anticipating the fire would get out of control.

“Crews are working on containment lines and we expect to have the fire under control by around 7pm tonight,” he told The Weekly at the time.

“No water bombing is required and three brigades are on the ground.”

Mr Howard confirmed the fire was in a similar area to the previous large grass fire.

“It is in the same area and we believe it may have started due to some machinery being used on a property,” he said.

Mr Howard said it was surprising to see a fire burning in the same area, but weather conditions meant the grass was dry and had increased chance of igniting due to fuel loads.

“It can happen when using machinery in dry areas,” he said.

“We do not have major concerns that the fire will jump containment lines and it should be under control later tonight.”

Deputy Captain Bentley said he wanted to remind all residents that permits were now required to burn.

To apply for a burn permit please phone Tweed Fire Control Centre on: (02) 6671 5500 – you cannot burn until the permit is approved.

Cr Polglase will recommend that Council allocate an appropriate level of funding and prioritisation to the servicing of the committee, should the motion be supported.

“In terms of administration and governance, and similar to other Council committees, a terms of reference would need to be prepared and adopted by Council, prior to being convened,” the motion reads.

“A more efficient mechanism of dealing with strictly agriculture related issues may be convening of a working group to deal with issues as they arise to include relevant staff and departmental representation.”

Meanwhile, Cr Polglase will also raise a motion to change the highly debated RLS, which has divided many within the shire and is again set to be debated during Council’s monthly meeting.

Cr Polglase will raised four key amendments to the RLS, including that the existing minimum lot size on RU1 land not be amended or altered; an agreed independent panel to review the relevance of the 40-hectare minimum lot size in the Tweed Shire; a plan to identify rural areas that are not suitable for agriculture and implement zoning to allow lifestyle owners to purchase and maintain smaller rural parcels within RU1 and RU2 zones; and remove restrictions in the RLS which prevent building on sloping land that is in excess of 12 degrees.

The Weekly asked whether Cr Polglase felt he had the numbers to amend the RLS, which he remained quietly confident.

“All I’m trying to do is to get good outcomes for the Tweed,” he said.

“We’re allowing opportunities for landholders to explore options and our policies in the RLS need to offer opportunities.

“It’s not a motion I would raise if I didn’t feel it had a chance.”

YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe the Rural Land Strategy should be revisited and adjusted in line with Cr Polglase’s suggestions?

By Jonathon Howard A RENEWED push is on by Tweed Shire Councillor Warren Polglase to give farmers a greater voice within Council and to adjust the highly debated Rural Land Strategy (RLS).

Cr Polglase is set to raise several motions during Council’s monthly meeting on Thursday, October 22, including a call to adjust the 40-hectare rule for RU1 and RU2 zoned land.

Cr Polglase said he also believes there is a “lack of connection between farmers and the council” and he wants something done about it.

“I believe a rural land industry advisory committee could address the rift,” he said.

Cr Polglase said the advisory committee could have grassroots input and would benefit farmers by having a stronger voice within the Council and its processes.

“Unless farmers have a say in the council and bridge this great divide, they will not have the voice that many other groups have,” he said.

“This committee can have a positive impact across the council by maintaining stronger relationships.

“Council has various committees but does not have a rural land advisory committee.”

Cr Polglase will move that Council creates a rural land advisory committee, which could consist of nine members, including five members that are engaged in rural activities and four members with special qualification such as planning or agronomy, as well as one councillor and one Council officer.

“Over the years, there has been constant differences in delivering strategies and dealing with issues within the rural industry,” Cr Polglase said.

“Agriculture pursuits in Tweed Shire are an important part of the community and therefore we should have a committee which can make recommendations to Council on issues that affect their industry within the community.”

Quick thinking actions help save boss's life Wendy has heart of gold

By Jonathon Howard THE QUICK-THINKING actions of Peter Roberts, co-director of KIS Plant, has helped save his fellow business partner Brian Turner from almost certain death recently.

Mr Turner suffered a sudden heart attack on Monday, March 23, while at his desk and was seen gasping for air in his seat.

“I knew straight away he was having a heart attack,” Mr Roberts said.

“I went to Brian to help him and within seconds he lost consciousness and laid back in his chair.

“I yelled out to our draftsman, Taylor Managh, to call an ambulance.

“In the meantime, I got Brian on to the floor and started checking his pulse and his airway as he was losing colour – he went blue.”

Mr Roberts started CRP and called on Alan Lippiatt, the company’s third director, to render assistance as well.

The pair continued with CPR which has helped save Brian’s life.

“We continued with CPR until the ambulance arrived in about 12 to 14 minutes,” he said. “It was all so quick.”

Mr Roberts said the paramedics were amazing.

“They worked with us and set up the defibrillator and gave him two shocks,” he said.

“And Brian regained consciousness on the second shock.

“Brian was talking and responding to questions at this point, however, he only remembers being in the ambulance.”

Two ambulances arrived and the paramedics took Mr Turner to John Flynn Hospital where he made a speedy recovery.

“His recovery is going great, no effects at all, he was back at work within a few

MURWILLUMBAH EMERGENCY Department nurse unit manager Wendy Park was recently surprised with a staff appreciation award and afternoon tea by her colleagues.

Local nurse Angie Gittus said nominations were submitted by staff across all disciplines in the ED, including nurses, doctors, clerical and cleaning.

“The staff used the hospital nomination forms and all wrote examples of how Wendy brings the core values of collaboration, openness, respect and empowerment to work with her every day,” she said.

“Wendy has done an amazing job of supporting the staff during the challenges of a pandemic, which comes as no surprise, as Wendy is an excellent manager who genuinely cares for her team.”

Angie said Wendy’s strong support for the ED is driven by her commitment to providing patients with excellent care.

“For anyone that’s been a visitor to the ED during the clinical handover at 2pm, you’ll be familiar with the cheer that’s close to Wendy’s heart, ‘go team M’bah’,” she said.

days and was back full-time the week after,” Mr Roberts said.

Brian Turner, Peter Roberts and Alan Lippiatt are the three owners of the business and have worked closely together for years.

Mr Roberts said he undertook a CPR refresher course only a month prior, which he said was invaluable in performing effective CPR. Mr Roberts stressed the need for other workplaces to ensure they have CPR training or emergency procedures in place.

“We’ve also since purchased a defibrillator on site,” he said.

Paramedics Barbara Carroll and Racheal Burton arrived, followed by

Jacquie Jacobs and Sal Quinn, and said the staff had done an amazing job at CPR. “The staff were doing amazing CPR on their boss (having just completed their first aid refresher),” Ms Carroll said.

St John First Aid Trainer Fay Gleave said anyone can save a life with basic CPR training.

“Any CPR can help and can potentially save a life, as it was demonstrated in this recent case,” she said.

“There’s no use standing back and saying ‘I can’t do it’ – you have to have a go.

“I’ve trained thousands of people over the years and I’d hope that people would have a go.”

Application for Tweed Heads Christmas carnival

By Jonathon Howard JACK EVANS Boat Harbour could play host to a Christmas carnival this year, with Tweed Shire Councillors set to discuss an application to host ‘Summer Nights at Tweed Heads’ during their monthly meeting on Thursday, October 22.

The motion is recommended for in-principle approval and could operate from Saturday, December 26, until Saturday, January 23, plus construction time, from 7pm to 10pm.

“This community carnival will be an alcoholfree family event with signage posted at the entry point specifying the restrictions and that intoxicated persons will not be permitted,” the application from GPL Amusements wrote to Council.

“The entire perimeter of the event will be enclosed by security fencing with screens to block out views externally.

“Patrons will pay a $2 entry fee. At this point in time, COVID-safe outdoor events have a limited number of people under government regulations, so nightly admittance into the event will be monitored by COVID marshals

and altered to adhere to any government changes if applicable.”

GPL said it intends to strategically place generators to reduce noise and will monitor readings taking place during operation times.

“It is our priority at GPL Amusements to provide a safe and fun event for the Tweed Heads community, we will work together with Council if any concerns or complaints arise,” the application reads.

GPL said the Summer Nights format comprises amusements, rides, games and carnival food.

Council said the request is for the carnival to be on site from December 21 to January 25, or five weeks.

“This includes seven days for bump in and out,” Council said.

“Concerns have been raised whether time frames can be met regarding processing the required development application and ancillary applications in time for the requested bump in date.

“As such, in-principle support is sought for the carnival for a period of five weeks, dates pending site availability and development consent.”

The Summer Nights Christmas carnival could be coming to Tweed Heads

Big changes to Tweed tourism operator

By Jonathon Howard MOUNT WARNING Tours is evolving with a range of big announcements including a name change to Tweed Escapes, a new private tour and transfer vehicle fleet and other acquisitions, all to continue driving one of the Tweed Shire’s best tourism operations.

The business has more big news on the horizon with the purchase of the Tumbulgum General Store and Post Office and adjoining cafe, which will continue as is, as well as purchasing neighbouring lots within the commercial village precinct, in the future.

Director Michael Simmons said the company has a collective vision for Tumbulgum that will focus on restoring the heritage facade of the commercial precinct buildings.

“Our goal is to collectively meet the aspirations of the community by providing and extending existing services for the village, and developing these offerings into local and visitor retail and experiences,” he said.

Over the past six years, Mount Warning Tours has worked in collaboration with multiple Tweed hinterland operators to improve the Tweed’s tourism offering by delivering a range of cruises and road tours that have focused on nature, history, local food and farm experiences, adventure activities and much more.

“It has been great to have so many happy customers touring with us,” Mr Simmons said.

“Now, we are expanding what we offer and with that, evolving into Tweed Escapes.

“This is a brand that will still feature the cruises and tours you love, as well as offer more experiences to enrich your time on the Tweed.

“Tweed Escapes is all about day-cations, stay-cations, local travel packages and multiday experiences with us and our collaborative partners.”

Mr Simmons said as the business has grown, the products have developed “well beyond our original vision, and beyond our original name”.

“We also felt like using the name Mount Warning was not in alignment with the traditional owners of the land, and as a sign of respect to our local Indigenous communities, have chosen to remove that name from our business,” he said.

“As we have partnered with figures from our local Aboriginal community, this now allows us to tell even more of the story of the land and culture of the region.

“We have always been big on sharing the stories of the region and now this is one of the founding principles behind the experiences we will be bringing you.”

Mr Simmons has also partnered with long time Tweed Shire tourism expert and entrepreneur Russell Moore, who is working in partnership with Tweed Escapes as a fellow director.

“Through storytelling, we will take you on a journey in nature and the history of the region, as well as the best places on the Tweed for great food, great drinks and great times with friends and family, creating memories that will last,” he said.

Osteopaths treat more than you think

By Jonathon Howard A PROPOSAL for Tweed Shire Council to develop an affordable modular housing village at Wardrop Valley is set to be debated during Council’s monthly meeting on Thursday, October 22, with Cr Warren Polglase calling for a rethink on the project.

Cr Polglase told The Weekly he is concerned Council is missing an opportunity to capitalise on industrial land that could be worth more than $80 million.

That’s why Cr Polglase will raise a motion that Council take no further action on the modular homes village project until such time as Council’s Audit Risk and Improvement Committee considers the matter and determines whether it requires further action.

But Cr Cooper, who has been the driving force behind the project, has sought to emphasise the need for a business plan to ensure ratepayers are not footing the longterm costs of the project, or he’s willing to drop the project. “If that business case finds that ratepayers will be footing the bill, I will drop the plan,�

Cr Cooper said. “But I think you will find that the ratepayer will not be impacted, and the project can achieve both, in providing affordable homes for people without costing ratepayers.�

However, Cr Polglase said he has estimated that the project could cost $21.6 million for 51 homes, without considering any additional costs including additional land costs. “Meanwhile, the value of the land for industrial development is worth $80 million to Council,� he said. “If we were to convert that land to employment generating land, the returns would be worth $80 million. “We own the land and it will be need to be rezoned, and there’s a whole process including additional costs on top. “The overall costs to get this to construction would be well over $1 million to get it to shovel ready. “Cr Cooper is expecting Council to cover these costs, when in reality Council does not have the funds to progress with this project.�

Cr Polglase said no one was saying there is not a need for affordable housing, but he questioned the site’s use for an affordable housing model. “This is in the wrong spot,� he said. “There is a need for more affordable housing of course, it’s just this project proposal is in the wrong spot. “It’s a sloping block that lends itself towards industrial land and employment generating land.�

Cr Polglase said the costs for the project would need to “come down significantly�.

“I’ve been involved in building these projects for a long time, and the costs will spiral,� he said. “These costs need to come down, and we need to find a flat block that’s suitable.�

Cr Polglase said he may or may not have the numbers in the vote, but he is concerned the project is heading down an unaffordable avenue.

Cr Cooper has hit back at Cr Polglase and highlighted that a cost analysis was required to determine whether rents would cover the cost. “What I’ve said all along is that we cannot impose on the Tweed ratepayer any ongoing costs,� he said. “The rents on these properties need to cover that cost, or we simply cannot go ahead. “We’ve set up a process of doing a business plan to determine what the rents will be.�

Cr Cooper said if they do not come out at what would be considered a normal rent, “the project would not go ahead�.

Cr Cooper also questioned Cr Polglase’s cost assessment and said it is “crazy to think a modular home could cost more than $400,000 per home�. “The sustainability side of the project is costing too much,� he said. “So, what we do is take out the hydrogen production for energy and work on the grid with solar panels, which will bring the costs down significantly. “In fact, the cost we are doing is far less at around $150,000, which creates a small but standard home that meets fire and insulation standards.�

Cr Cooper said properties within the price range of $100K to $150K opened a lot of modular home types to explore. “These homes can be constructed within three weeks and on demand, so they would not have to all be constructed straight away,� he said.

Cr Cooper believes Cr Polglase is seeking to discredit the project through costings. “We have to see this through to the business plan,� he said. “We need another $30,000 for the business plan and that will put us in a positive to seek grant funding and bank funding for the houses.�

Cr Cooper estimates the project will cost around $8 million for the houses delivered and constructed on site as required.

But Cr Cooper stressed the need for a business plan to map out the costs both in rents to cover Council’s costs and in construction to determine the viability. “Don’t forget the housing cost can be depreciated over 20 to 30 years, which brings the rental price down,� he said.

Condong to Crabbes Creek rail line officially closed for rail trail preserved in case there is a need for train services in the future.

Speakers agreed the rail trail is the best use of the corridor for the foreseeable future.

Members of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail Incorporated group are celebrating the news, including the group’s president Pat Grier.

“It will bolster well-known local businesses and new businesses will spring up,” Mr Grier said.

“I thank both sides of NSW parliament for their support for the Northern Rivers Rail Trail. I know the community overwhelmingly wants the rail trail to happen and I’m excited to see this milestone reached.”

The closure of the rail line follows years of highly charged debate for Tweed Shire residents, in what Councillor Katie Milne recently described as one of the most divisive topics in the Tweed’s history.

Both these projects are shovel ready, and Tweed Shire and Richmond Valley Councils are keen to start construction.

Tweed Shire Council said it hopes to be in a position to award a design and construction contract early next year.

“With construction to begin around March, and the Murwillumbah to Crabbes Creek section of the rail trail to be operational by late 2022,” Council said in a media statement.

“This first stage of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail has received $6.5 million in funding from the Australian Government under its Regional Jobs and Infrastructure

A drone image of one of the bridges included in the Murwillumbah to Crabbes Creek rail trail

Packages Fund, with the NSW Government providing $7.8 million under its Regional Tourism Infrastructure Fund.

“An additional $600,000 has been secured from the NSW Government to cover the costs of operating and maintaining the section of rail trail for the first three years.”

Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said the rail trail was a great win for the Tweed.

“It will preserve the unique heritage value of the rail corridor itself, as well as providing an alternative transport route that connects smaller rural communities to major city centres in the Northern Rivers,” he said.

“We’ve seen the success of NSW’s pilot rail trail project from Tumbarumba to Rosewood, which has delivered a vibrant revitalised area with massive tourism and recreation benefits, and we want to see this replicated in the Northern Rivers Rail Trail.”

The project is to be completed in stages, with Tweed Council leading the first stage which will redevelop 24 kilometres of track from Murwillumbah to Crabbes Creek, and Richmond Valley Council leading stage two, linking 13 kilometres from Casino to Bentley.

The final stage is intended to link approximately 90 kilometres from Bentley to Crabbes Creek with Byron Shire Council currently investigating options for a dual-use corridor.

“Council welcomes the passage of this legislation and thanks Mr Provest and all our current and past members who have steadfastly advocated to secure the way forward for this new tourism enterprise for the Northern Rivers region,” Council’s General Manager Troy Green said.

“This news marks a key milestone achievement for Council’s rail trail project and provides the muchneeded initiative the certainty our community has been waiting for

and on which we can have a clear conversation.

“It also enables Council to reengage with our shortlisted design and construction prospective tenderers so that we can work towards a final rail trail design, and clarify during the process our ability to incorporate on and/or off-formation (trail beside the rail) aspects where appropriate that best serve the broader needs and aspirations of our community.

“This legislation importantly retains the corridor in public ownership and paves the way for Council’s shortlisted tenderers to bring their rail trail concept designs forward in the next phase of Council’s contract procurement.

“We look forward to having that next level of objective engineering assessment to address the many queries and claims raised about the rail trail design and to assist with alleviating neighbouring landowner concerns.”

By Jonathon Howard THE CONDONG to Crabbes Creek rail line officially closed on Friday, October 16, and will make way for the Northern Rivers Rail Trail, which is set to begin construction in March 2021 and completion by 2022.

The Legislative Council passed the Transport Administration Amendment Bill to allow construction of the first two sections of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail – Casino to Bentley and Murwillumbah to Crabbes Creek – with the aim of one day linking the two.

The passing of the bill in the Upper House cemented the rail trail’s future for the Tweed, in what has been an emotional journey and the subject of great division for many.

Fears remain that the land could someday become sold or developed, coupled with the realisation that trains are unlikely to return to the Tweed Valley.

Ben Franklin moved the bill in the Upper House, and he reminded members that the legislation will ensure the corridor remains in public hands.

“I assure the House that the rail trail will remain under public ownership … any government or public ownership model adopted will ensure that the land can easily be returned to Transport ownership, if this is ever necessary,” he said.

Mr Franklin said the community can be confident the corridor is

Cricks Tweed celebrates 40 years of Mitsubishi with extended warranty CRICKS TWEED Mitsubishi are excited to introduce the all-new Mitsubishi Diamond Advantage program, as part of Mitsubishi Au s t r a l i a ’s 4 0 t h b i r t h d ay celebrations.

Mitsubishi first arrived on Australian shores in October 1980, and has kept Aussies moving ever since with great deals on some iconic vehicles.

Mitsubishi Motors Chief Executive Officer Shaun Westcott said over the years, Mitsubishi products and dealerships have certainly changed.

“What hasn’t changed is our commitment to Australia – it is as firm now as it was on October 1, 1980,” he said.

“Forty years is an incredible achievement, and I’d like to acknowledge all of those who have contributed to that success.”

A s p a r t o f M i t s u b i s h i ’s commitment, they are offering the new Diamond Advantage program, which introduces Australia’s first 10-year/200,000km new car warranty with 10-year/150,000km capped price servicing and four years of roadside assistance across the entire Mitsubishi range.

Australia’s first 10-year warranty and 10-year capped price servicing program is a massive boost to the value offered across the Mitsubishi range, and a sign of Mitsubishi Australia’s commitment to its customers, celebrating its 40th birthday in Australia.

It is a service standard that sets them apart from other automotive manufacturers.

Effective from Thursday, October 1, eligible customers who purchase a new Mitsubishi vehicle will receive access to the all-new customer care program.

Some of the beauties that have kept Aussies moving and racing for 40 years

Sales of Mitsubishi vehicles at Cricks Tweed have been boosted significantly since the start of the month, as customers have become aware of the new warranty and capped price servicing program.

Cricks Tweed’s General Sales Manager Kyle Dillaway said sales have “certainly ticked up since Thursday, October 1”.

“We have seen plenty of families coming in to take up the Diamond Advantage program because of the peace of mind it offers,” he said.

“That said, the biggest boost has been fleet and ABN buyers jumping on board to get the added benefits, whilst also taking advantage of the governments $150K tax write-off scheme.

“It’s like a double whammy of benefits for work vehicles that makes now the best possible time to buy.”

Stock of Mitsubishi vehicles at Cricks Tweed has become tight recently due to higher than expected sales, but Mr Dillaway said fresh cars and utes are arriving weekly.

“So, the customers know they are getting the newest possible builds, and are thus willing to wait for their preferred specification,” he said.

“In some cases, we have a waiting list for certain models, but that’s what happens when the offer is this good. It’s a perfect storm really.”

As part of the celebrations, the Cricks team are also offering a range of vehicle maintenance and servicing specials during October and November, including $50 fuel vouchers up for grabs every day.

AUTOMOTIVE SUSPENSION & EXHAUST

With the exit of Holden from Australia in its final stages, it seems Mitsubishi is putting its best foot forward to not only take its share of Holden’s customers, but to solidify its position as one of Australia’s top selling brands.

Recognition for hospital volunteer

By Jonathon Howard THE VITAL work of the Murwillumbah Hospital Auxiliary in fundraising for hospital equipment has been put on hold since the coronavirus struck in March this year, but recognition for its volunteers continues.

Val Forster has been a driving force at the auxiliary for the past 20 years, including 16 years as its president, who joined after noticing a lack of volunteers.

To honour her contribution, vice president Lyn Chapman arranged a secret picnic presentation to surprise her at Budd Park on Tuesday, October 20.

“Keeping it small because of COVID and unofficial,” Mrs Chapman said.

“Also we cannot have it as an auxiliary event as we need permission from headquarters in Sydney before we can resume duties.”

The Weekly was there to help with photos and the small group heaped praise on Val

for her passionate approach and love of meeting people.

“She’s very involved and passionate about the auxiliary,” Mrs Chapman said.

“She does a lot of the organising of events and fundraising, and loves to meet people.

“The auxiliary volunteer team is not back at the hospital yet due to COVID-19, and is not expected to come back until January 2021, and have been off since March.

“We did a lot of card parties and raffles and showground markets, and we just can’t do anything.

“We’re the ones that do the fundraising for some of the equipment.”

Val said it’s been a “wonderful experience” with the Murwillumbah Hospital Auxiliary.

“When I started off I was too shy to talk to anyone,” she said.

“Now I love the work we do as volunteers, and I enjoy meeting new people and the wonderful friends I have.”

Members of the Murwillumbah Hospital Auxiliary hosted an unofficial catch-up to celebrate longtime member Val Forster (middle)

Some of the blue-green algae detected at the Bray Park Weir pool – but don’t worry our drinking water is safe to drink, says Council

Blue-green algae remains present

By Jonathon Howard BLUE-GREEN ALGAE capable of producing a toxin known to cause neurological disorders has now been detected in the Bray Park Weir pool.

These toxins can cause gastroenteritis, neurological disorders and possibly cancer, but Council has assured residents the tap water remains “perfectly safe” through their treatment processes.

Council’s Manager of Water and Wastewater Operations, Brie Jowett, said the treatment removed algae and potential toxins, together with taste and odour compounds, “making the treated water safe for consumption and pleasant tasting even when algal blooms occur in the raw water.”

The blue-green algae alert at the weir remains at amber, and there is no evidence that the algae species, which is at very low levels, has produced toxin.

Council will increase its frequency of testing of the raw water in the Tweed River and at the weir, and adjust its treatment processes as required.

Meanwhile, the blue-green algae alert at Clarrie Hall Dam remains at green, where a different species, also with a gene capable of producing toxin, has been detected.

“Again our tests show while the species in the dam has the gene capable of producing

toxin, there is no evidence that it has produced toxin,” Ms Jowett said.

“Council’s water laboratory scientists lead the field in identifying and testing bluegreen algae, so we can be confident that our treatment settings are right to handle these current algal blooms.”

Council draws water from the upstream side of the weir for treatment at the Bray Park Water Treatment Plant before it is distributed to residents.

Blue-green algae occur naturally and can reproduce quickly in favourable conditions, where there is still or slow-flowing water, abundant sunlight and sufficient levels of nutrients.

Signs advising the public of the presence of blue-green algae and any potential risk have been placed at the public access points to the river near Bray Park, including Byangum Bridge.

There are also signs at the dam wall and Crams Farm advising recreational users of the dam to stay away from the water.

Blue-green algae affected water appears to have a green paint-like scum on the water, near the edges, or greenish clumps throughout the water.

Anyone who thinks they may have contacted blue-green algal water are advised to seek medical advice if symptoms appear.

It’s all smiles for residents at Bupa Pottsville Not even the COVID-19 pandemic could stop residents at Bupa’s Pottsville aged care home from smiling as they celebrated World Smile Day this week.

Alison Clare, General Manager Bupa Pottsville, said remembering to smile and celebrate the good times is more important than ever for their care home.

“It’s been a difficult year with residents not being able

to see their loved ones as much as during other times, but we’ve worked hard to keep spirits up and make sure we keep having fun,” Ms Clare said.

The care home celebrated World Smile Day with personalised smiley balloons, trivia and singalongs including ‘When you’re smiling’, ‘When Irish eyes are smiling’ and Nat King Cole’s ‘Smile’.

By Jonathon Howard TERRANORA RACING champion Brendan Strong has performed an outstanding comeback during the Bathurst 1000 Super 3 Series to bring home third overall in the series and cement a strong future in the highly competitive field.

The passionate racer has been striving to secure sponsorship in the Super 3 Series, with the latest result attracting interest and securing his racing career.

“We had a great weekend at Bathurst,” Brendan told The Weekly.

“Qualifying fourth in the Super 3 Series for race one, we had the pace to move our way forward to finish in third position.”

Brendan said the team was already attracting more interest from sponsors and

he’s confident the team will continue to produce outstanding results.

“During qualifying for race two, we had a steering rack failure, we didn’t want to risk damaging the car, so we had to retire from qualifying,” he said.

“This meant we had to start rear of the grid, but I managed to fight my way forward, getting enough points to finish third overall for the weekend.”

Brendan said he wanted to extend a big “thank you” to his sponsors, which includes several local businesses.

“I would like to thank my sponsors including Crusher Parts International, Touch of Class Garages and Verandahs, Agas National, Brypar, Bremner Visual, Rosche Paper, Kirra Automatics, Link Scaffolding and Fresh Print Signs.”

Brendan Strong and his team have a bright future ahead after a great result at Bathurst 1000 Super 3 Series recently

By Pat Miller and Jonathon Howard THE NEWLY refurbished The Citadel building on Queen Street, Murwillumbah, is ready to host its first live music gig on Sunday, October 25, with guests set to experience a remarkable change to the iconic site.

In its new guise as a live music venue and art space, legendary guitarist Daniel Champagne (pictured), currently on a national tour, will performs not one but two shows at The Citadel at 3pm and the now sold out 7pm.

Mr Champagne has never played in Murwillumbah and the renovated Citadel provides a perfect performance space.

The Citadel proprietor Rosie Evans said she contacted the musician and in the interests of supporting emerging music venues, he agreed to the gig – a COVID-safe concert proposal.

“The 40-only evening tickets sold out in 48 hours. Ever the gentleman, Champagne offered, and Evans accepted the afternoon concert,” local arts promoter Pat Miller said.

“This talented young bloke has a real ‘let’s make it happen’ attitude, reflected in his willingness to not only perform an extra show, but perform in a brand-new venue as well.”

At the time of print there were still some tickets left for the 3pm show.

A world of art celebrated at Images of Uki

In the Bubble, a collaborative work from MarieFrance Rose and Peter Baker

BELLBIRD Images of Uki was a huge success

Heather said the Art Nouveau earthenware clay work of Lorraine Lintern was always greatly appreciated at Images of Uki. “Lorraine does domestic ware, making homemade slip from clay and coloured oxidants, and then carving a design through the slip to expose the natural colours,” Heather said.

“The magnificent sculpture she entered exhibited African influences.

There was also a lot of interest in Peter Baker’s sculptures made from found objects.

“My work evolves from finding pieces of timber, visualising shapes and then creating,” Peter told The Weekly.

“In the Bubble was made in collaboration with sculptor Marie-France Rose and used rusty bolts from an old harrow.

His major piece of teak and metal as you entered the exhibition was titled Tree of Life.

Peter said it was a great weekend, and he had sold a large sculpture called Something Fishy.

Heather said they were happily surprised that this year’s sales were an improvement on the amount sold last year.

FILMS with Mia

Farm life and grief are at the center of Bellbird, a new gentle movie from New Zealand which could have been filmed here considering the similarity of the environment and of the characters that inhabit it - except for their accents, which made it difficult for me to get all the nuances of the scarce dialogue lines.

The protagonists are the typical men who have to show strength even when they are devastated inside, and therefore keep their thoughts to themselves and have conversations made of monosyllables when not grunts – which I find quite frustrating and frankly not acceptable anymore in the supposedly sophisticated world that we now inhabit. But their intentions are pure: they have grown up like that, taught to be tough and continue with their life routine no matter what.

So the more interesting part of the story is in what is left unsaid because it relies on the talent of the actors to channel feelings in a very subtle manner.

The principal characters are Ross, an older farmer who suddenly loses his wife, and his son Bruce, who doesn’t want to inherit the farm. It is

obvious from the beginning that the two taciturn men have a difficult relationship, probably mediated throughout the years by the cheerful mother and wife Beth, and when she suddenly dies the two are left with a big task ahead: finding a way to communicate with each other. They have different ideas: while Ross cannot see any other future for his son than continuing to run the dairy farm, Bruce has an artistic interest expressed through his job of sorting out items at the local dump and giving them a new lease of life.

The small community where they live rallies around them in various ways, and some peripheral characters add a touch of lightness and humor to the situation, but fundamentally the two men have to learn to open up to each other before they can move forward. Film director and screenwriter Hamish Bennet is of Maori descent and had already made a short film about the couple Ross and Beth, of which Bellbird is the follow-up. The film is titled after an avian species indigenous to the Northland location where the movie was shot, described as having a song like small bells exquisitely tuned: quite a contrast to the protagonists’ silence..!

By Jo Kennett MANY UNDERSTANDINGS of the theme ‘Different Points of View’ were showcased in a sensational array of high quality art for the Images of Uki Exhibition last weekend, according to Organising Director Heather McClelland.

“There was a steady flow of people through the doors thanks to the hours being extended to keep everybody COVID-safe,” Heather said.

“Artistic Director Edith Streiner and a wonderful team of volunteers succeeded in installing it all extremely well.

“Everyone joined enthusiastically in voting for The People’s Choice Award which was won this year by Lyn Wade for her lovely light-filled abstract, ‘Conversations’.”

One artwork with cameos depicting different views of Wollumbin from eight points of the compass was painted by Lyn Naismith to reflect her love of the mountain.

Lyn gained a passion for the beauty of Islamic Geometric Design after moving to Dubai in 2009, and went on to study at the School of Islamic Design.

“This art is ‘based on the infinite flow of life, as every line leads to another, and there are no dead ends’,” Heather said “Symbolically, she was hoping to broaden our local point of view by including the art of another culture.

Despite having done no training, sevenyear-old Isla-Mae Killick and her nine-yearold brother Rusty both came fifth in their age group.

“They haven’t been able to train for three months due to the border bubble, so to come home with the number five plates was an awesome effort,” mum Emma Killick said.

“They were part of the Gold Coast Academy of Sport BMX squad, but after one session [earlier in the year], they had to dial into the classroom by Zoom, as again they couldn’t go across the border.

Rotary Club of Kingscliff celebrates 50 years

By Jo Kennett ROTARY CLUB of Kingscliff members and residents joined in celebrating 50 years since the club’s founding at Ed Parker Rotary Park on Saturday, October 17.

Kingscliff Rotarians have played an extraordinary role in fundraising for local, national, and international projects over the past five decades and includes 27 visionary charter members.

Club President Peter Sibilant said it was an incredible milestone.

“There are many proud former members around the area, over 50 years, who have given so much time and enthusiasm in raising funds for local, national and international projects,” he said.

To celebrate 50 years of serving the community, the Rotary Club of Kingscliff continued its good work, by partnering with Tweed Shire Council, to improve facilities at the Ed Parker Rotary Park next to Cudgen Creek.

“This included an upgrade to park shelter facilities with improved path access, formalised parking areas and a sign to celebrate the 27

visionary charter members of the club,” Mr Sibilant said.

“Pictured with the sign are the two known remaining charter members, who are also current club members, Tom Grimes and Idwall Richards.

“It is incredible that Tom and Idwall are still active members of the club and regularly attend meetings and events.”

Mr Sibilant said both long-time members have been involved with hundreds of fundraising barbecues and many duck races at the creek over the years.

“Thank you Tom and Idwall for your 50 years of selfless service to the community,” he said.

Rotary clubs around the world connects 1.2 million members across 35,128 clubs in 535 districts from more than 220 countries and geographical areas.

Their work impacts lives at both the local and international levels, from helping families in need in their own communities to working toward a polio-free world.

Whilst Rotary is global, it is also very local, with 29,852 Rotarians in 1,124 clubs across 21 districts in Australia.

BAe-146 aircraft are flying into Gold Coast Airport during the curfew

Freight planes flying into Gold Coast

By Jo Kennett AIR FREIGHT services are now flying into the Gold Coast Airport during the curfew period from 11pm to 6am Eastern Standard Time.

Some Tweed residents are directly under the flight path and can register any concerns with the Airport Noise Abatement Consultative Committee (ANACC) before October 25, however the flights have already started.

The Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Communications has advised Airservices that they have granted permission to Qantas Freight to operate a maximum of four weekly freight services to and from Gold Coast Airport on behalf of Australia Post during the curfew period.

“This is a result of increased demand for e-commerce in the region combined with the reduction in freight typically carried by passenger services due to COVID-19 restrictions,” Airservices advised in a media release.

“In approving the application, the Department considered the benefits of direct connections between Gold Coast Airport

and other locations, which will support local businesses and supplement the capacity of existing road freight.”

The permit to operate during the curfew period runs from October 5, 2020 to June 26, 2021, with four BAe-146 services per week during the curfew on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights and in the morning.

“Airservices has worked closely with the Department to ensure that eligible aircraft are able to comply with Noise Abatement Procedures in order to reduce noise impacts for the community,” the release said.

“This includes the prioritisation of approaches to Runway 14.

“Qantas (Cobham) must report (and include the reasons for) any landing on runway 14 that uses the ILS [instrument landing system] to the Department.

“We recognise that some people may be more sensitive to aircraft operations occurring at night and members of the community may be disturbed by aircraft noise during these times.”

Objections can be sent to anacc@gcal.com. au or through Airservices Noise Complaints and Information Service (NCIS).

Pandemic poem sends message of hope Concerns about overnight coast parking ban

By Jonathon Howard GREENHILLS LODGE residents have written a heartfelt poem expressing their loneliness and the things they miss since the coronavirus hit.

Greenhills Lodge activities supervisor Karen Strong wrote to The Weekly requesting the poem be printed, which is titled ‘Pandemic – Our View’ by residents of Greenhills Lodge.

“I ran an activity where our residents wrote a poem,” Ms Strong said.

‘It is their view of COVID, titled ‘Pandemic – Our View’.

“Our residents want our community to know that while they realise they are frail and vulnerable, they are so much more than this.

“I would love their effort to be recognised locally and know it would make their day to see their poem in The Weekly.

“I hope you enjoy reading it as much as they enjoyed writing it.”

Pandemic – Our View

A poem by residents of Greenhills Lodge It has been a troublesome year Border passes, a divided country, closed states The horror of restrictions, staying at home Glad we have each other Quiet – like a ghost town Keeping things simple Longing for my family, I miss them Isolation, I feel so cut off Masks, sanitisers, distance, I miss hugs No shopping – no new shoes or bras!

They say we are vulnerable, but we feel safe here I miss catching the public bus. I miss going to the library It’s good to be able to do scenic drives again, but gee we miss being in our community. We miss lunch outings Our activities staff help us feel smart, they entertain us.

All of our staff make us feel wanted, useful and at home.

We feel cared for, we feel loved.

We have survived wars and the great depression.

We have buried children, our parents, our spouses and we will survive this. We are tough!

Family owned business 0 2 for over years.

By Jo Kennett TWEED SHIRE Council is cracking down on overnight camping across the Tweed Coast, but locals are concerned innocent people such as fishermen and rough sleepers with nowhere to go will be caught in the net.

Council announced last week it would prohibit parking at night, between 11pm and 5am, seven days a week, at beach car parks and coastal road reserves, with a $116 fine for anyone caught breaking the new rules.

Murwillumbah’s Kurt Buchanan is a keen fisherman and says the crackdown will affect recreational fishermen and women “in a big way.”

“A lot of us fishos like to go fishing at these later times and early mornings because there are less people around and it’s a great time to catch fish under darkness,” Kurt told The Weekly.

“We don’t camp and we don’t leave rubbish lying around.

“I have been doing this here since I was a young boy with my father and now I do it with my sons.

“It’s such a shame that the local council is now going to be fining us for parking in an empty car park at night time.”

The Weekly has previously reported on damage to coastal dunes by illegal campers, however, there are concerns for local homeless, some forced out by skyrocketing rental and property prices, with the stretch from Pottsville to Wooyung being targeted in the crackdown.

Pottsville Beach Neighbourhood Centre Manager (PBNC) Angela Maxwell said everyone at PBNC “has huge concerns about the impacts for already deeply distressed and disadvantaged individuals and families living in their cars”.

“As you know, we provide assisted referral to specialist agencies and practitioners, and a substantial array of material aid items, including: meal support (frozen and nonperishable food); fuel support; personal

hygiene/sanitary items – including nappies; limited supply of backpack beds; second hand clothing and shoes etc, which are distributed to people in financial hardship,” Ms Maxwell said.

“Our daily occasions of service have increased dramatically since the pandemic began.

“Pandemic-related unemployment rates, unstable housing, and a lack of available affordable housing options have created a big spike in the number of people becoming rough sleepers (often for the first time ever) with no other option but to live out of their cars.

“We support rough sleepers as much as we can, but the solution is beyond our service’s capacity as it directly relates to the provision of affordable housing, and we are not a specialist housing service. ” Tweed Shire Council Rangers Team Leader, Nic Harrigan, said new parking restrictions introduced along the coast are a direct result of illegal camping-related activities throughout the shire.

“Illegal camping that has caused significant public amenity, health and environmental impacts – and which have been reported to Council by local residents,” Mr Harrigan said.

“The majority of locations that will be affected by these changes are restricted to car parks or what are considered ‘road-related areas’, such as nature strips, with the exception of Tweed Coast Road between Pottsville and Wooyong and McKissock Drive, Kingscliff.

“There will continue to be ample parking provided on public roads along the coast for those seeking access to the beach between 11pm and 5am.

“Council will continue to consult with specific groups, such as fishing clubs and homelessness outreach programs, to minimise any impact to the community.”

Mr Harrigan said rangers will commence late night and early morning patrols from next week and vehicles found parked in ‘no parking zones’ face being issued with an on-the-spot fine.

TOP DOG ACADEMY

If we develop strong foundations for a puppy to grow & mature confidently & independently, you will have very few problems, if any, to manage in their adulthood.

The key to great behaviour is starting the Socialisation & training process in the critical period (8 weeks – 16 weeks of age).

It is for this reason, Top Dog Academy has a very strong focus on educating puppy owners, so YOU get it right!

Only one vaccination is required!

HOT WATER

Has Your Hot Water System Been Checked Lately?

Ever Heard of a Sacrificial Anode?

A sacrificial anode is a vital part of your water system, and having it inspected can be the difference between an efficiently working system and a costly replacement.

Manufacturers recommend that you maintain the anode in your system in order to prevent damage from rust + corrosion.

THE ANODE IN YOUR SYSTEM SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO CORRODE AWAY, WHATEVER TYPE OR BRAND OF SYSTEM YOU HAVE SOLAR, ELECTRIC, GAS OR HEAT PUMPS Cutaway section of a typical electric hot water heater

FOR A LIMITED TIME we will check your anode in the Tweed & Gold Coast area FREE OF CHARGE.

“REMEMBER YOU CAN’T LOSE, NO ANODE REPLACEMENT NO CHARGE” Comes with a 5 year warranty ~ Make your Hot Water System last for 30 years!

Hozier’s 100th game and Harris scores a ton in cricket season opener Cricket report by Jo Kennett IT WAS the first day of the cricket season on Saturday, October 17 with Pottsville beating Murwillumbah in first grade but the Hornets going well in second and third grade.

Murwillumbah Cricket Club Report Murwillumbah had a tough day at the office for Round 1 of the 20-21 season.

First grade lost to Pottsville at Seabreeze Oval.

Murwillumbah won the toss and batted first making only 147.

Sidney Ewing (51) and Jackson Agius (43) provided the bulk of the runs.

However, this was not enough with Pottsville chasing the score down while losing only two wickets.

Wiley left arm spinner Declan Brooks (2/28) claimed both wickets.

Second grade had a similar day against Byron Bay at Les Cave oval.

Byron won the toss and batted first, amassing 4-281 from their 40 overs, after a sluggish start against a young and enthusiastic Murbah attack.

Crusty old off-spinner Marc Portus claimed 2-26 from his 6 overs.

Murbah could only post 119 in response with Jaxon Miller (36) and Mick Newell (26) the only bats to get settled at the crease.

A big congratulations to William Hozier who played his 100th game for the club.

In 3rd Grade the Murwillumbah Panthers 9/179 lost to the Pottsville Pelicans 3/320 in their 40 over match.

Andrew Stewart top scored with his maiden 50* and 2 wickets with the ball.

In an impressive first game Peter Haywood scored a quick fire 32, took a wicket with the ball, and 2 catches in the field.

In Junior sides the U16s, U14s and U12s Panthers all went down, while the U12 Roar (4/95) defeated Byron Bay (69). U12s Panther George Fisher scored his maiden half century,

Ned Serne top scored with a run a ball 39* in the U14’s, and Noah Hill made 36* in the U16 side.

First grade As mentioned above Pottsville first grade on 2/148 defeated Murbah on 147 with Jamie Bennett scoring 51 and Jayden Hoare 48.

Oscar van Megchelen took 3/29. Cudgen had a bye.

Second grade In second grade Cudgen (163) defeated Pottsville (152) with Jamie Wilson top scoring on 55 and Cameron Dooley taking 4/49.

Troy Thoms top scored for Potty on 49 and took 2/28 while Nathan Wilson took 3/22.

Thirstiers on 258 defeated Terranora on 8/254 with the game coming down to the last ball.

Andrew MacKay top scored for Thirstiers on 49 while Chris Humphries was the best of the bowlers taking 5/49.

C u d g e n S t i n g e r s wo n o n fo r f e i t Murwillumbah Cougars.

Third grade In third grade the Pottsville Breakers (152) went down to the Cudgen Hornets (4/156) with Rob Maroney starring for the Hornets win on 46 not out and taking 2/22.

Jamie Crowley (32) top scored for the Breakers with Jerem Marr taking 3/20 off five balls.

Holding Shot with Judy Tuckey LAST WEEKEND’S Champion of Club Singles, Champions Championship, conducted at Brunswick Heads Bowls Club completed all the TBD Men’s championships for 2020.

Best wishes for every success to all district winners when they compete at zone level commencing this Saturday, October 24, in the Lismore precinct.

Hats off to all the district’s club singles champions who, regardless of the extremely harsh windy conditions, delivered top quality bowls on all rinks.

Burringbar’s Mikael Smith received a free pass to the semis due to Cabarita’s Laurie Freeman’s withdrawal. Laurie came a cropper off his bicycle on his way home from

bowls the other day and busted his thumb and was, therefore, unable to play. No further comment!

Ocean Shores’ Phil Clarke proved too strong for Mullumbimby’s Jeffrey Morgan as he claimed his spot in the semis.

Byron Bay’s Gavin McPhail grabbed the lead early in his stoush with Kingscliff’s Stuart Miles and held on well to take the game with a solid margin.

Bangalow’s Brian Sands got a free ride to the semis due to a bye in the preliminaries.

Semi one between Ocean Shores and Burringbar lads resulted in a closely contested game where the score card levelled on four occasions.

However, with only a three-shot lead after 30 ends, Clarke lifted the

bar and blitzed six shots over the next two ends to seal victory and a finals berth. The Bangalow versus Byron Bay semi proved to be like the semi one game as the players levelled the score on three occasions in this close encounter. With a two-shot advantage, McPhail then upped the ante to score the shots required to claim a comfy win.

Increasing winds prevailed for Sunday’s final game between Phil Clarke and Gavin McPhail.

Whilst Clarke opened the card, McPhail was quick to retaliate and take over the lead.

Holding Clarke at bay throughout the remainder of this gruelling contest in difficult weather conditions, McPhail claimed victory and a berth in the zone C of CC singles championships on the card for later this year.

Zone one championships begin this weekend. TBDBA will be represented as follows: Saturday

New housing finance hits record highs

By Jonathon Howard

THE REAL estate market is running hot, with recent data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) showing a record rise in new home loans, as interest rates hit record lows.

The August 2020 Lending to Households and Business figures recently released by the ABS shows a sharp monthly rise in the value of new home loans, which includes both owner occupiers and investors, up 12.6 per cent when seasonally adjusted.

The value of new loan commitments for investor housing rose 9.3 per cent to $5 billion in August, but is down 4.6 per cent for the year. Queensland and Victoria are the two states leading the charge for new investment finance.

The number of first-home buyers entering the market has reached its highest point since October 2009, with a total of 12,302 buyers committing $5 billion in new mortgages – an increase of 17.7 per cent over the month and 37.3 per cent over the year.

The dollar value of new loan commitments for owner occupiers

to build new homes rose 19.2 per cent in August and 43 per cent over the past 12 months.

Loans for owner occupiers to purchase existing homes increased by 9 per cent in August and 13.7 per cent over the year to a total value of $11.5 billion in August.

“The value of owner occupier home loan commitments was $16.3 billion in August, the highest value in the history of the series,” ABS head of Finance and Wealth, Amanda Seneviratne, said.

“August’s 13.6 per cent increase in the value of owner occupier home loan commitments is the largest month-on-month rise in the history of the series, eclipsing the previous record of 10.7 per cent set in July.

“New loan commitments for owner occupier housing rose in all states and territories, except the Northern Territory.

“The largest increases in the value of new loan commitments were in Victoria, Queensland and New South Wales.”

The data should be approached with some

caution, according to the ABS, as borrower behaviour and lender processing times have been strongly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, and this is impacting month-on-month movements.

“Lenders are reporting to us that current processing times mean that August commitments reflect customer demand in June and early July, prior to Victoria imposing stage 3 and stage 4 restrictions,” Ms Seneviratne said.

Meanwhile, the Australian Banking Association has reported that repayments have resumed on almost half of all deferred mortgages and small businesses loans, reducing the risk of a future ‘fiscal cliff’.

The Real Estate Institute of Australia (REIA) has welcomed the announcement, with its president Adrian Kelly, saying the news is promising for the real estate market.

“The resumption of repayments in about half the cases is
