Rental crisis deepens

RENTAL SUPPLY in the Tweed Shire seems to have hit another peak in demand, with desperate locals competing against interstate and international residents flocking to the area.

Kim Ingram is one of those looking for a home for herself, her partner and child, after their previous rental sold.

“We have applied for about 20 houses and have had no luck as yet,” Kim said.

“We never get an answer as to why we are unsuccessful.

“Every house we apply for has about 30 other applicants.

“There is such a housing crisis in the Tweed region. It is becoming depressing looking at so many houses.”

Kim and her husband have a nine-yearold son and no pets.

“We are living with my in-laws at the moment, paying rent, and we basically

Kim and Jason Ingram are hoping to find a rental in the Tweed Shire soon

live in our bedrooms,” she said.

“Both husband and I work full-time.

“It is getting to the stage where I really need a house, even if it’s only a one bedroom.”

Kelly Hardcastle has lived in Murwillumbah for ten years and has less than seven weeks to find a rental.

“I have a six-year-old and a baby on the way and the owner of my house is not renewing my lease — I believe they are selling — and it is right as my baby is due,” Kelly said.

“We pay $495 a week. We have been there almost a year and can afford around $650 at a push.

“We can’t find anywhere because so many people are looking and it’s really stressful.

“I can’t find work (with the baby due) but my partner works full-time.”

Kelly said they have nowhere else to go.

The Weekly spoke to one life-long resident who said “unfortunately the rental crisis is just getting worse.”

“I work in disability support and see many folk who are homeless after being unable to afford the exorbitant prices,” the man, who didn’t want to be named, said.

“Also, the lengths people will go to to have their children in a certain area for schooling is alarming because people

will pay just about anything to be in that (catchment) area.

“The locals are the ones being forced out and mainly into homelessness because the people moving here have the money to afford these ridiculous prices.

“It’s so sad and breaks my heart that even the ‘middle class’ are becoming the ‘lower class’ as I’ve seen families with two incomes becoming homeless.

“My one-bedroom unit is the size of a box and it’s $550 a week.

“It’s getting so out of hand and I know locals are fed up with it.”

There were 41,167 dwellings in the shire in 2021 with more built since. There are currently 128 rentals advertised on realestate.com, although several are already leased or have deposits taken.

Tweed’s entry in dire state The border into NSW at Tweed Heads needs work says councillor

options, costings, timing, prioritisation, and potential funding of a premier entrance statement for Tweed Shire which would encourage new development and activation of the Wharf Street precinct from Boundary Street to Bay Street by revitalising the current landscaped areas and predominantly retaining the road and car parking configuration.

“Requests staff to further work with police and the Tweed Mall to address the graffiti and abandoned shopping trolleys that plague the streets, including the impounding of trolleys outside of the shopping mall’s property.”

YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe the Tweed Heads entrance to NSW from Queensland at Wharf Street needs some beautification? The Weekly would love to hear your thoughts and letters via email editor@theweekly.net.au

91139

THE ENTRY to the Tweed Shire via Coolangatta is in “dire need of attention”, according to Cr Rhiannon Brinsmead, who will raise a motion this week to undertake an urgent audit of the area.

Cr Brinsmead said it’s high time that council, in conjunction with police, commenced the long overdue clean-up of the Tweed’s entry to address anti-social behaviour, excessive graffiti, decaying footpaths and abandoned trolleys along Wharf Street and Bay Street.

The motion will be raised for a vote during councillors’ monthly meeting on Thursday, February 15.

“The Tweed CBD is in dire need of attention in a variety of areas, including beautification and addressing anti-social behaviour,” Cr Brinsmead told The Weekly.

“Issues of graffiti and abandoned shopping trolleys plague the streets.”

Cr Brinsmead highlighted that Wharf Street and Bay Street are the “gateway entry statements from the Gold Coast (Queensland) to Tweed Heads (NSW)” and need to reflect a welcoming and even inviting nature.

“We are deserving of a premier entrance statement that would encourage new development and activation of the Wharf Street precinct from Boundary Street to Bay Street,” she said.

“People tell me all the time how long things on council take so I’m asking the general manager to undertake an audit in the first half of 2024 of the Tweed CBD and surrounding streets (Wharf Street and Bay Street), and parks and infrastructure, to identify immediate and interim measures that can be undertaken for beautification of the area such as pressure cleaning paths and walkways, graffiti removal and revitalisation of the current landscaped areas.

“I am also calling for a new community safety audit to be undertaken with the NSW Police for the precinct which can provide recommendations to address safety, homelessness, and other issues in this precinct, noting that the last audit was undertaken in 2016.”

Cr Brinsmead’s motion includes noting the ongoing anti-social and graffiti issues that remain in and around Wharf Street, Bay Street and Jack Evans Boat Harbour.

“Requests staff to review and provide a report back to council on the feasibility,

Bus routes suggestion

My thoughts centre firstly around routes and services travelling south from Murwillumbah, and secondly, having buses terminate at Tweed Heads South.

It is a logistical nightmare, or impossible, to get to places like Mullumbimby, Brunswick Heads and Byron Bay for study.

As an example, to spend five hours in Mullumbimby, the bus leaves at 5.45am and you not able to arrive back at Murwillumbah until 9.30pm.

These travel restraints make it extremely frustrating not being able to get to a destination, especially when travel time by car is no more than 30 minutes.

Regarding my second issue, buses should travel on to Tweed Heads before they terminate and not at Tweed Heads South.

Sarah Fryer, Murwillumbah

Bare bum almost gave me a heart attack

About G-strings. I agree that if you are off the beach then cover up -— whether you are a model or Borat.

A woman wearing only a G-string hidden between two giant peachy curves with only a short T-shirt was buying groceries in Kingscliff Woolies — it nearly gave me a heart attack.

Where’s the hygiene?

There’s a reason even nudist resorts ask patrons to carry their own towel for seating. Faecal germs, worms, ringworm, STIs and even Covid, that love human crevices, multiply quickly on smooth surfaces.

Men cannot wear a singlet at clubs as their usually hairy armpits would drop some big curlies. The least we can ask is that bare bums are covered.

Matt Bay, Kingscliff

We only walk in NSW now

In recent years it has become a nightmare in Queensland since the introduction of e-scooters and e-bikes.

They are often ridden by young people who do not have consideration for others using the paths and often are extremely fast.

We have seen very many near accidents and know of several people who have been injured by these riders while walking. We now only walk in NSW. We certainly do not believe that NSW should follow Queensland’s example and hope it will continue to remain illegal to use on walkways in NSW.

Barry and Susan Stewart, Tweed Heads

E-scooter convenience cannot be overstated

Johannes Smit, Banora Point

Footpaths are not for electric speed machines

For several years while walking along the beach path at Coolangatta, I have seen a pushbike or a skateboard coming towards me as if they were in some Indy race.

The riders must appreciate it is a facility for walkers not for speed machines.

Banning and fining are unpleasant answers but have good intentions; the police should be congratulated for their concerns.

For any machine using a pedestrian facility, there must be recognised the potential for an accident.

It is in fact quite dangerous to ride bicycles, skateboards e-bikes and scooters on footpaths.

The riders are quite amazing weaving their way around walkers and joggers.

Obviously, the footpaths cannot always be widened to cope with ‘mechanical’ traffic and a speed limit cannot obviously be patrolled.

I have absolutely no idea except a ban or chicanes — now there’s a possibility!

Warren James, Tweed Heads

Why we celebrate Australia Day

In response to Barbara Nowland’s letter (TVW February 8, Letters).

Nice effort on the Citizens Act, but the only problem with the argument

_or pe =pqol hb

One of the most compelling reasons to support electric scooters is their environmentally friendly nature. Unlike traditional gasoline-powered vehicles, electric scooters produce zero emissions, contributing to a cleaner and healthier environment. With growing concerns about climate change, adopting electric scooters can be a positive step towards reducing the carbon footprint and promoting sustainable transportation alternatives.

Electric scooters offer a cost-effective solution for both individuals and the community at large. Their affordability makes them accessible to a wider range of people.

The convenience of electric scooters cannot be overstated. They are nimble, easy to maneuver, and perfect for short-distance travels. In congested urban areas, where traffic congestion is a common challenge, electric scooters provide a swift and efficient mode of transport.

While concerns about accidents have been raised as a reason to prohibit electric scooters, it’s crucial to recognise that accidents often result from the actions of a few irresponsible individuals. Implementing proper regulations, rider education programs,

and enforcing safety measures can address these concerns without penalising the majority of responsible users. The current government trial in NSW aims to evaluate the feasibility of legalising electric scooters.

However, the prolonged duration of the trial raises questions about its efficacy. It is crucial for the government to expedite the decision-making process, taking into account the positive impact that legalising electric scooters can have on the environment, economy, and overall transportation landscape.

is the fact that the first official Australia Day was on 26 January 1938, 11 years before the Citizens Act. Joseph Lyons’ Labor government declared Australia Day on that date to celebrate 150 years since Phillip’s landing.

A protest was held on the day at Sydney Town Hall by First Nations people, indicating that it was a day of mourning for them.

So it was clear from the beginning it wasn’t popular with part of our community. The 26th of January 1949 (Citizens Act) was chosen by the Menzies Government (Liberal) because it coincided with the already established day. May I humbly suggest that the date for Australia Day be changed to May 9.

This date in 1901 was the first time all states of Australia sat down as a Commonwealth to form a parliament.

We were independent of colonial England and it was a beginning of this great nation we know today.

Honouring local vet

The greyhound industry in the Northern Rivers will honour the late Jack Sommerville with the announcement today that a new $50,000 event will be staged in April this year.

Jack was the on-track vet for several decades at Grafton, Casino, Lismore and at Tweed Heads, as well as servicing greyhound participants right across the Northern Rivers and up to the Queensland border. He passed away in January this year.

The new event, to be known as the Jack Sommerville Northern Rivers Cup, is sponsored by the Tweed Heads Coursing Club, and will be run at Casino and Grafton.

Jack was the vet at all three tracks, and a wonderful friend to the industry and its participants,” said Steve McGrath, Manager of the Tweed Heads Coursing Club.

“To honour Jack I made contact with his wife Carol and got her permission to use his name on this race series, and she was more than happy

with what we were doing in recognition of Jack’s contribution to greyhound racing.”

Two heats will be run at both Grafton and Casino, with first and second in each advancing to the $50,000 first prize final, which will in 2024 be held at Grafton, but will alternate between venues moving forward.

The Grafton heats over the 450m trip will be held on April 14, with the Casino heats over the 484m journey run on April 16. The final will be held at Grafton on Saturday, April 20.

It’s a wonderful initiative to honour Jack Sommerville and we are delighted to be a part of it and thank the Tweed Heads Coursing Club for sponsoring the series.

Jack was a vet at the three tracks, but not only that, he was the best friend that greyhound participants on the Northern Rivers have ever had.

Jack helped whenever and wherever he could and would go way out of his way for participants.

He was a wonderful man, and it’s an honour and privilege to be part of a race series named in his honour.

The draft includes a plan to 'provide limited additional land to support hospital-related development within a medical precinct' at Cudgen next to the new hospital.

some areas, including flood-free land at Nunderi, Tyalgum, Nobbys Creek, Burringbar and Crabbes Creek.

“Secondary dwellings and dual occupancy (detached) dwellings are currently not permissible in land zoned RU1 and RU2 in the Tweed.

“This limits the development of these housing types which cater to growing rural industries and also prohibits rural landowners from accommodating future family generations as they age.”

Mr Lonsdale said under an analysis of the rural housing options, a proposal is made to amend the Local Environmental Plan (LEP 2014) to make secondary dwellings (detached) permissible with consent in the RU1 Primary Production and RU2 Rural Landscape zones, subject to meeting certain criteria.

“However, this is not current council policy and should not be used for speculative purposes,” he said.

“This may change upon the adoption of the Growth Management and Housing Strategy should council resolve to change the current permissibility.

“It is also important to understand there has been a marked increase in property values, particularly in rural areas, and rural housing does not represent an af-

fordable housing solution for the Tweed.”

Mayor Chris Cherry stressed the need for all Tweed residents to have their say on this important document.

“There’s a lot of really significant changes proposed right across the shire and we need to hear from you, because this is your chance to really guide how we grow into the future,” she said.

“If you don’t want to fill out an online form that’s okay, please visit a council office and share your views via a written letter, direct email, mail or via our online portal — you cannot have your say via social media on this subject.”

Mayor Cherry said she was concerned that residents could fail to understand the timeframes needed to have their say.

“This strategy could be adopted by the end of the year and take about another year to enact,” she said.

“We need to hear your thoughts now, not at the end of the year, or when someone starts construction.”

Make sure you pick up your copy of The Weekly in the coming weeks as we break down each of the six localities to inform readers of the changes.

THE DRAFT Options paper for the Growth Management and Housing Strategy is raising eyebrows after it was officially released for public consultation on February 8 and will remain open until Friday, March 22.

The media and public were invited to attend the official launch of the strategy where Tweed Shire Council’s Unit Coordinator of Strategic Planning and Urban Design Iain Lonsdale fielded questions.

Mr Lonsdale was quick to point out that growth is inevitable for the Tweed and that the days of clear roads without traffic and empty townships are over.

He told The Weekly the growth strategy presents a raft of options for the community to consider how the Tweed can best plan and prepare for an anticipated population growth of between 15,000 and 30,000 people over the next 20 years.

Mr Lonsdale has this week sought to clarify the detached dual occupancy portion of the document, which is something many landholders have called for.

“The document divides the Tweed into six localities, proposing options relating to specific locations where additional housing and employment land may be suitable in the future,” he said.

“One of these localities is defined as Rural Tweed — with the rural landscape being one of the key defining features and attractors of the Tweed.

“Rural villages are seen as an important part of the Tweed’s economy, history and character and contribute to the Tweed’s unique rural landscape identity.

“With this in mind, the options paper canvasses six changes to zoning and/or minimal lot sizes (MLS) in Rural Tweed, to allow for additional housing clusters in

Community input needed on growth strategy

By Jo Kennett

A DRAFT Options Paper, Growth Management and Housing Strategy (GMHS) to manage Tweed Shire population growth over the next 20 years across 59 areas is open for submissions, but there is a dispute over the projected population growth for the shire.

The paper acknowledges the discrepancy, stating the state government projection is for growth of 13,290 people from 2021 to 2041.

The GMHS has allowed council to come up with its own figures for growth, 31,182 extra people, “to ensure that a higher growth scenario than the NSW government projections can be appropriately catered for if it occurs,” PSA Consultants say in their executive summary.

The shire grew by 8,714 people in the ten years to 2021, but the projected growth put forward by Bull and Bear Consultants is around eight to ten thousand every five years.

PSA Consultants acknowledged that there is significant supply of the 12,247 homes needed based on the higher population projection from greenfield sites such as Kings Forest (4,500 homes), Cobaki Lakes (5,500 homes) and Dunloe Park (1,800 to 2,600 homes).

Councillor Nola Firth said that while she realises more affordable and social housing is needed, she is concerned about development in greenfield areas and did not understand where the projected population figures in the paper came from.

“The paper refers to population

IS YOUR SUBURB LISTED: An interactive and informative map for residents to gain a greater understanding of the targeted areas for the Draft Growth Management Housing Strategy is online via Have Your Say Tweed

projections that are double the NSW state population projections and it doesn’t include Kings Forest and other developments already coming online,” Cr Firth said.

“The latter are already expected to cater for something like 30,000 people.

“Given our responsibility to look after our internationally recognised environment with its already many threatened species, all native treed areas, both urban and rural, need to be protected — loss of habitat being one of the top reasons for biodiver-

sity loss.”

Cr Firth said she could not emphasise enough how important it is that residents look at the options in detail and “give us feedback”.

“This strategy will be hugely influential in shaping the future of our shire and we need community input as none of the options or assumptions in the documents have been endorsed by council.” Cr Firth said.

“Increased density in Tweed Heads is a likely scenario and may be mandated by the state, but this options document (especially the appendix)

includes secondary dwellings and greenfield (development) and some of the options involve whole areas of native trees or large pockets of trees.

“There are also options involving significant expansion of our villages e.g. Tyalgum, Crabbes Creek and Pottsville. The Pottsville expansion includes employment zoning.”

Amongst the 59 proposed sites for increased housing is a plan to decrease the minimum lot size in areas such as Nunderi and Nobbys Creek, and increase housing at Burringbar,

Crabbes Creek and Tyalgum.

Councillor Rhiannon Brinsmead is also urging residents to have their say on the options, which will be “hugely influential in shaping the future of our shire.”

She said it was important for residents to know that the GMHS Draft Options Paper is an options paper for discussion purposes and is not council policy.

“It is for this reason that I did not support the amendments put forward by some of my colleagues at the December 13, 2023, council meeting,” Cr Brinsmead said.

“I felt very strongly that the Draft Options Paper should have been placed on exhibition for community feedback ‘warts and all’.

“I said at the time that I was interested in the views of the community and not the views of the elected body.

“The Draft Options Paper provides the basis for the strategy which will be developed once the Final Options Paper is adopted by Council.

“I strongly encourage Tweed Shire residents to provide comments on any likes, dislikes, and how the change might be improved, or any other changes not considered in the Draft Options Paper.”

The Weekly has contacted Bull and Bear to find out where their projected population figures came from.

You can have your say on future housing and development at: www. yoursaytweed.com.au/growth-management-and-housing-strategy The Weekly will report on all of the 59 areas slated for increased housing over the coming weeks.

Councillor elections 2024

By Jonathon Howard

THERE IS still around seven months to go before polls opens on September 14 and the Tweed Shire decides who will represent them in the Local Government Elections.

The Weekly felt it was timely to catch up with our seven local councillors to find out whether they will recontest their roles this year and continue representing the community.

Last week we heard from Cr Firth, Cr Polglase, Cr Dennis and Cr Byrnes, who are all recontesting.

This week it’s Cr Chris Cherry, Cr James Owen and Cr Rhiannon Brinsmead who share unique insights and provide readers with their views.

Cr Ja

mes Owen

Cr James Owen said he’s eager to recontest the September 2024 Local Government Election and wants to continue to make sure the community feels heard.

“I am running again this year and, if elected, I will continue to work hard for the Tweed Shire Community, as I have done for the last (almost) eight years,” he said.

“I see my role as the important link between the community and the or-

ganisation, noting however that I am only accountable to those who elect me (not the council staff).

“An essential part of my role, as I see it, is to try and improve the service delivery for our community and to advocate on behalf of all residents for better outcomes, whether they voted for me or not. :Each week I am contacted by members of the community who need assistance with a variety of council matters.

“If you contact me, by whatever means, I will get back to you and I will do my best to get you an answer or assistance.

“Many people tell me that this is a refreshing change and not one they’ve experienced with elected members prior.

“I want to make sure that the community feels heard and knows that I will fight for them.”

Cr Owen said he’s hearing a lot about how “dissatisfied people are with council’s customer service and communication”.

“I’m on a mission to make sure it improves,” he said.

“Preserving and protecting our natural environment and wildlife, maintaining our unique community identity and helping the people of Tweed Shire to thrive and prosper is what I am about.

“We can achieve this by working strategically and collaboratively to deliver more jobs, housing, services, infrastructure, and lifestyle opportunities for our community for generations to come - this is what residents have told me they want for our beautiful part of the world, and so

I’m running again to ensure that we deliver on the vision.

“As an elected representative for Tweed Shire my role is to continue work collaboratively with the community, council staff, the private sector and all levels of government to make Tweed Shire a great place to live, work and play.”

Mayor Chris Cherry said she still has a lot of work to do and has decided to stand again in September this year.

“It is always a hard decision because on the one hand, it is very satisfying to be able to help people in the community, but on the other, it can be incredibly frustrating when you sometimes don’t have the power to make changes that people assume you can,” she said.

“It has been a mostly harmonious term on council with just about all of our decisions being unanimous, which shows how much we have been able to put political differences aside and just work together for the good of the community.

“Of course, now that the election is looming, there are a few barbs being thrown around but I guess people want to get a point of difference.

“Cr Reece Byrnes had a go last week

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals again about the councillor and mayoral pay change that happened when our council was reclassified.

“I am proud that the mayoral role is now paid a fair wage for the work in that role.

“The mayor’s role now gets around the same as a head science teacher at a public high school instead of the same as a graduate teacher, so if I am credited with helping bring the pay into the 21st century, I am okay with that.”

Cr Cherry said the next four years are “incredibly important” for the Tweed Shire as we find the right balance of growth.

“So that our children have affordable places to live, protection of our incredible natural environment and moving to respond to and reduce climate change impacts,” she said.

“We need to protect where we live.

Trying to facilitate social and affordable housing in safe areas so that we can move out of our housing crisis has to be the priority for council to work with the state and federal government on.

“It has been a tumultuous time to be mayor over the last three and a half years, but it has certainly been a privilege.

“We have been through a lot and I am hoping to face the next chapter together.”

Cr Rhiannon Brinsmead said she’s undecided about whether to run again in seven months time.

“Representing the community has been the utmost honour and I have thoroughly enjoyed my time on council,” she said.

“Unfortunately, I have discovered that the current system isn’t neces-

sarily designed for full-time working mums (like me) and others with high demands (jobs and other) placed on them and their time, and this is one of the reasons that I think we struggle with diversity in the elected body.

“I always strive to be a strong voice and advocate for our entire community on the matters and issues that are important to them.

“I’m passionate about the Tweed’s youth and their ability to access jobs, education, and recreation activities in the local area.”

Cr Brinsmead said, “growth is inevitable” and she highlighted the importance of providing jobs and housing without compromising the region’s natural beauty and appeal.

“As a born and bred local it’s important to me that I collaborate with all councillors to find the balance between development and maintaining our unique lifestyle and identity,” she said.

“We should all be advocates for the environment, and be mindful of the impact we can have, as we deal with a growing population due to many people relocating to the area to experience all the Tweed has to offer.”

Advertorial

Fire ants affect us all Fire ant nests have been found on a vacant block in South Murwillumbah marking the first detection of fire ants in northern New South Wales (NSW).

All fire ant nests detected have been destroyed by direct nest injection.

The National Fire Ant Eradication Program will be conducting surveillance and treatment in a 5 km radius of the detection to ensure there are no more fire ants present.

Eradicating fire ants is a fight we need to win, the consequences of failing are far too great.

Murwillumbah, and all those who rely on these communities, fire ants pose a severe problem if left unchecked.

In the United States, fire ant nests are part of the everyday landscape.

Texan farmers can only use a portion of their land, the rest has been taken over by fire ants to the point it’s beyond treatable and in many cases the land is unusable. Residents are also unable to walk to their washing lines or spend time outside without being swarmed and repeatedly stung.

This is not a future we want for Australia.

Eradication will take a collective and whole-of-community approach.

We need you to look for and report fire ants and give our officers access to your property if they need to conduct fire ant eradication activities.

To give our country the best chance of success, we must treat: • 100% of all targeted properties • all properties at least 6 times over 2 years • whether fire ants are visible or not.

Just one missed nest could jeopardise eradication efforts.

Eradication treatment is delivered using aircraft, utility terrain vehicles and handheld spreaders in smaller, more easily accessible areas. The method we use varies depending on the size and accessibility of an area.

The target area covers a 5 km radius around the detection in South Murwillumbah.

They’re small, copper brown, feisty and sting, and if we don’t all work together they’ll be here to stay.

First found in Brisbane in 2001, fire ants are considered one of the world’s most invasive pests. And rightly so, they can have irreversible consequences on our environment, human health and outdoor way of life.

If we don’t stop them, fire ants could infest all of Australia, rendering our green spaces unusable, and surpassing the annual damage done by our country’s worst pests—feral cats, wild dogs, foxes, camels, rabbits and cane toads.

Do you love spending time outdoors without shoes on?

This lifestyle is what we need to save.

Fire ant teams using hand spreaders to treat.

Australia is the only country currently focused on eradicating this pest as it has spread too far in other countries, so they have given up trying.

For our rural and semi-rural farming communities such as South

Fire ants are highly destructive and can feed on insects, displace native species and destroy ecosystems.

Large acreage properties are most commonly treated by air as this is the most time and cost-efficient method. Handheld spreaders are suited for residential blocks and utility terrain vehicles for larger parcels of land.

Fire ant treatment is safe for humans and animals and is approved by the Australian Pesticide and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA).

The treatment is specifically designed to target fire ants using ingredients commonly found in a range of household and agricultural pest control products but at a much lower concentration. It prevents the queen from reproducing worker ants—if she cannot replenish her workforce the colony will starve and naturally die out.

Our field officers are authorised under the Biosecurity Act 2015 (NSW) to conduct fire ant eradication activities. They drive a vehicle displaying the National Fire Ant Eradication Program logo, carry government identification, and will only ever need access to the outdoor areas of your property.

Eradication treatment is the only proven way to eliminate fire ants and protect the way of life we know and love. It is our one option to safeguard Australia from this invasive pest..

Police outside the Tweed Heads West home. Photo by NBN News. Inset is Donna Baraket — photo taken from Facebook

A 25-YEAR-OLD man has been charged with murder after the discovery of a woman’s body at Tweed Heads West on Wednesday, February 7.

Tweed Police said at about 5.50pm, emergency services were called to a home on Lakes Drive, Tweed Heads West, following a concern-forwelfare report.

Tweed Police officers found the body of a woman when they arrived at the home.

She was later identified as Donna Baraket and is believed to have been aged in her 60s.

Police established a crime scene and launched an investigation into the incident.

Following inquiries, police located 25-yearold Connor Bullus with injuries to his hands outside a pharmacy on Kennedy Drive, Tweed Heads West.

A pharmacist told NBN News that the man had visited the pharmacy before his arrest.

“There was blood everywhere and he walked up there to call the ambulance,” the pharmacist told NBN News.

“We gave him some water and he had a lot of cuts on the underside of his hands.

“He just said there was an incident where he lived.”

Police arrested Bullus who was taken to The Tweed Hospital under police guard for treatment.

Bullus reportedly had been living at the property with Ms Baraket in recent months with no electricity. Neighbours told the media Ms Baraket had been living there for almost 20 years.

A police forensic team worked through the night at the house.

Upon discharge from hospital Bullus was taken to Tweed Heads Police Station where he was charged with murder.

He was refused bail to appear before Tweed Heads Local Court on Thursday, February 8, but was still in hospital and had yet to be interviewed by police.

The matter was adjourned to Friday, February 9 for a committal hearing.

Missing swimmer found

By Jo Kennett

A WOMAN missing in the Tweed River has been found safe at Fingal Head.

A multi-agency search commenced about 7pm on Saturday, February 10, for the woman after she was seen entering the water overnight.

She managed to swim across the river and was located at 8am on Letitia Spit Road at Fingal Head.

Marine Rescue Point Danger skipper Guy Youngblutt said they got a callout for a person adrift in the Tweed River along Keith Compton Drive in Tweed Heads.

“We got down there and then the police turned up and gave us some information about who we were looking for and where they had entered the water,” Guy said.

“It was about 9pm and we had an area to search and the police had their area.

“We searched up to Jack Evans Boat Harbour and they searched towards Terranora Inlet.

“We did that for about an hour and then the SES turned up and we started searching down towards the Ivory Tavern and up the Terranora Inlet channel.”

The crews searched until almost midnight when the search was suspended by police.

“We recommenced about 7.30am to start searching again,” Guy said.

“We got stood down just after 8am.

“We heard the woman was found on Letitia Spit Road and she was okay.

“Once she was deemed safe we went back to our work assessing trainees for crew.”

The woman was taken to hospital as a precaution.

Measles alert in Tweed NSW HEALTH is advising people to be alert for signs and symptoms of measles after being notified of one confirmed case of measles in Murwillumbah last week.

The case recently returned from Asia where there have been ongoing outbreaks of measles in several countries including Pakistan and India.

People in the following locations may have been exposed to the virus and should monitor for symptoms: schoolchildren (both primary and secondary) who were on the morning and afternoon school bus in the Murwillumbah area on Monday, February 5.

People who attended the Emergency Department at Murwillumbah Hospital on Friday, February 9, between 1.15pm to 4pm and Saturday, February 10, between 12.15pm to 8pm.

North Coast Regional Director of Population and Public Health, Dr Valerie Delpech, said while these locations pose no ongoing risk, people who visited the above locations should be on the lookout for symptoms.

“Symptoms of measles include fever, runny nose, sore eyes and a cough, usually followed three or four days later by a red, blotchy rash that spreads from the head to the rest of the body,” Dr Delpech said.

Measles is a vaccine preventable disease that is spread through the air when someone who is infectious coughs or sneezes.

“Symptoms may appear between seven and 18 days after an exposure, so it’s important for people to stay vigilant,” Dr Delpech said.

Tweed Shire Council wishes to acknowledge the Ngandowal and Minyungbal speaking people of the Bundjalung Country, in particular the Goodjinburra, Tul-gi-gin and Moorung – Moobah clans, as being the traditional owners and custodians of the land and waters within the Tweed Shire boundaries. Council also acknowledges and respects the Tweed Aboriginal community’s right to speak for its Country and to care for its traditional Country in accordance with its lore, customs and traditions.

Please slow down!

Motorists including motorcyclists and truck drivers are being asked to ‘please slow down’ through road restoration projects on Kyogle Road, between Byangum and Uki, to ensure the safety of motorists and crews working just metres away.

Contractor CMC is recording vehicle speeds through works sites well in excess of the posted 40 kmh roadworks speed limit. This includes near Byangum Bridge, Boulder Close and Glenock Road. If these drivers were detected by police, it would likely mean instant loss of licence.

Tweed Shire Council is acting to make sure the places we live and visit are safe, to protect our quality of life.

Bottom of carpark open Great news! The bottom level of the multi-storey carpark in Murwillumbah has reopened. It will remain open until further notice while repairs and cleaning continues on the other levels.

Council is waiting on an engineer’s report to assess the rest of the structure and another update will be provided to the community soon.

Alternative public car parking is available at Knox Park and in the carpark outside Sunnyside Mall, as well as the 2 public car parks between Proudfoots Lane and Wollumbin Street.

Council appreciates the patience and understanding from the community while these repairs are completed.

Win at Library Lovers’ Week!

Council thanks all road users for their patience as the 2023/24 road resealing program nears completion.

Road reseal program nears completion Council is making significant progress with the 2023/24 road reseal program, having already completed 77% of the scheduled work.

The program, designed to prolong the life of the region's extensive road network, is on track for completion over the coming weeks, weather permitting.

Acting Manager Roads and Stormwater Steve Paff reported that 50 kilometres of the sealed road network have been resealed this financial year, with 10 kilometres remaining.

“We’ve listened to residents and know how important the condition of the roads are to you. It’s been a busy few years for our roads team, with the flood and increased rainfall having a major impact on our road maintenance program.

But we are back on track with our regular maintenance programs,” Mr Paff said.

“The flood restoration program is separate from our usual maintenance. The road resealing process is a crucial treatment to postpone bitumen surface deterioration.

Rigorous assessments inform a systematic roadworks program, ensuring appropriate treatments for each road.”

Neglecting road maintenance can lead to major reconstruction, incurring higher costs. Timely resealing prevents wear and tear, saving public funds and avoiding disruptions associated with major reconstruction work.

Resealing is currently being undertaken over 5 km of Tweed Valley Way in Mooball, Dunbible, South Murwillumbah and Condong.

The program will conclude with sections of road resealing along Cudgen Road, Dungay Creek Road, Clothiers Creek Road, Chauviers Road, Minnows Road, Bald Mountain Road and Tyalgum Creek Road.

“It's important for all road users to avoid using roads while they're being resealed unless you've been given the go-ahead by our crew on site. This ensures high quality finish and keeps everyone safe. We appreciate the community's patience during traffic delays resulting from temporary lane closures,” Mr Paff said.

The $3.2 million investment in the 2023/24 road reseal program, part of the $20 million annual roads budget, emphasises Council’s dedication to providing optimal conditions for road users in the Tweed.

Have your say on the future growth and housing in the Tweed The Tweed is growing and changing. To accommodate a growing population and to achieve greater housing choice and diversity in the future, we need to identify where new housing and potential employment land might be located.

Council is developing a plan to manage housing and employment growth. The Draft Options Paper for the Growth Management and Housing Strategy is the next step in the process.

The suggested options contained in the draft paper propose ways we can increase the supply of housing and employment land across the Tweed.

The Draft Options Paper sets out a range of changes that have the potential to support the Tweed in the future in how it can meet key growth challenges in a sustainable way through to 2041.

Included are: • 10 key considerations for planned growth. These considerations, developed with community feedback, have directly informed the preparation of the changes

detailed in the Draft Options Paper.

• Eighty-three proposed changes. While the main focus of these changes is increasing housing density in areas already populated, a range of growth opportunities have also been proposed in the rural areas and greenfield areas of the Tweed.

• Potential housing supply options – potential areas identified to accommodate future housing supply include: Tweed Heads, Tweed Heads South, Banora Point, Kingscliff, Pottsville, Murwillumbah, Burringbar and Uki. • Future employment opportunities – areas identified to accommodate future employment growth include: Central Tweed, Cobaki – Terranora, eastern hinterland, Murwillumbah, rural west, Tweed mid-coast, Tweed south coast.

Feedback is being sought on any likes, dislikes or suggestions to how changes within the Draft Options Paper might be improved. This includes changes that may not have been considered.

How to have your say View the Draft Options Paper and interactive map of each of the proposed changes on the Your Say Tweed project page at yoursaytweed.com.au/futuretweed Hard copies will also be made available at both Council offices.

Complete a submission form before 4 pm, Friday 22 March 2024 in one of the following ways: • Online: yoursaytweed.com.au/futuretweed • Email: tsc@tweed.nsw.gov.au • Mail: General Manager, Tweed Shire Council, PO Box 816, Murwillumbah NSW 2484 • Delivered in person to the Tweed or Murwillumbah Council offices.

Tweed’s morning tea to celebrate inclusion Council’s Community Wellbeing team will be hosting a morning tea on Thursday 22 February to celebrate the official launch of the Tweed Access and Inclusion Plan 2023–2026.

Guests at the event will be the first to receive a copy of the new plan and can meet members of the Tweed Equal Access Advisory Committee, who advise Council on community perspectives on accessibility and inclusion matters in the Tweed.

Community input was invaluable in shaping the new plan, which outlines Council’s vision for the next three years, focusing on a continued commitment to fostering an inclusive environment for all.

In developing the new plan, Council sought feedback from the community and a range of sources, including the Equal Access Advisory Committee and Tweed Disability Network, and presented to key groups including Residents and Ratepayers Associations, Industry and Environment groups, and the Tweed Business Chamber. Overall, 21 formal submissions were received.

The Tweed Access and Inclusion Plan 2023–2026 was officially adopted by Council in December last year.

The event will begin at 9 am with an Acknowledgment of Country. Light refreshments provided.

Following the launch, guests may wish to stay on to join a Tweed Disability Network meeting where information about local initiatives supporting inclusion is shared.

Tweed’s 2024 water mains cleaning program in full swing The Tweed’s water mains cleaning program for 2024 is underway, with contractor Clearflow Australia on a mission to clean pipes in 13 suburbs by the end of March.

The suburbs on this year’s list are Bogangar/Cabarita Beach, Casuarina, Condong, Dunbible, Murwillumbah, Nunderi, South Murwillumbah, Terranora, Tweed Heads, Tweed Heads South, Tweed Heads West and Tyalgum.

To save water, air scouring is being used.

Water and Wastewater Operations Manager Brie Jowett said Council aimed to clean 10% of Tweed’s entire water mains network each year, amounting to 70 kilometres of pipes.

“It’s part of our program of work to deliver a high quality, affordable and reliable water service from catchment to tap,” Mrs Jowett said.

To clean, Council needs to turn off the local water supply for short periods.

“If your home or business will be impacted, we will let you know in advance by placing a notice in your letterbox,” she said.

Council Meeting agenda – Thursday 15 February 2024 The Council Meeting agenda for Thursday 15 February 2024 is available at tweed.nsw.gov.au/councillors-meetings. The meeting will be held at the Harvard Room, Tweed Heads Administration Building, Brett Street, Tweed Heads commencing at 3:30 pm.

The Commbank branch opened in 2013 at Coolangatta and will close next month

COMMBANK WILL permanently close its Coolangatta branch on Friday, March 1, as the company highlights declining customer demand.

The trend is becoming all too common amongst major banks, with many opting to close their bricks and mortar facilities in favour of online banking or the use of Australia Post.

The Weekly was contacted by a concerned customer who lives at the New South WalesQueensland border and said the Coolangatta Commonwealth Bank (CBA) has been in place for many years and he was shocked to hear it has a declining customer base.

“I find it hard to believe,” he said, not wanting to share his name.

“It was once a very popular branch, perhaps that has changed over the years.”

A CBA spokesperson said with more banking touchpoints than ever before, including branches, ATMs, mobile apps and phone banking, there has been a “clear preferential shift towards digital and phone-based banking”.

“We regularly review our services across Australia to help inform decisions on where to open, renovate or upgrade branches, or in some instances where to close branches,” the spokesperson told The Weekly.

“Customer demand at our Coolangatta branch has progressively declined. After a recent review, we made the difficult decision to perma-

nently close our Coolangatta branch.

“Staff will be available to provide one-on-assistance until Friday, March 1, 2024, to help equip and educate customers with alternative banking options.”

Australia’s largest bank said it will redeploy the vast majority of the Coolangatta staff to other branches or comparable suitable roles.

The CBA spokesperson wanted to highlight that Commbank remains committed to regional bank branches by investing millions in branches.

“We recognise some customers prefer overthe-counter banking and it’s one of the reasons we’re proud to maintain the largest branch network in the country,” the spokesperson said.

“We invest around $60 million in our branch network each year to upgrade or refurbish existing branches and open new branches where we see customer demand.”

CBA stressed that customers can continue using any CBA branch, including at Tweed City Shopping Centre and The Pines Elanora.

“More than a third of Coolangatta customers already visit these nearby branches,” the spokesperson said.

“Australia Post’s Bank@Post service is also available 400m from our branch at the Coolangatta Post Shop for personal and business banking transactions such as withdrawals, deposits and balance enquiries (including passbooks).

“Separately, we’ve committed to keeping all CBA regional branches open until at least the end of 2026.”

Farm theft charges

TESTIMONIALS I’m really delighted with the skilful, gentle way Kathy has feathered my eyebrows. The results are excellent and very natural in appearance.

I was unsure about the tattooing but after talking with Kathy about the look I wanted I couldn’t be happier with the results. A very hygienic, professional process with great aftercare. Highly recommend. Denice Kathy is just fabulous. I kept putting off getting my eyebrows done, but so glad someone recommended Kathy to me. Truly life changing to have eyebrows that look great all the time with no maintenance- Kathy is so gentle and clearly very experienced. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Sandra

A MURWILLUMBAH man has been charged with stealing and driving while disqualified after an investigation into a theft from a Cudgen farm on Tuesday, February 6.

Police received a report via the Police Assistance Line (PAL) from a Cudgen farmer in relation to the theft of irrigation pipe and equipment from his commercial fruit and vegetable farm.

The irrigation pipe and equipment were valued at approximately $30,000.

The Rural Crime Prevention Team commenced an investigation into the theft and Rural Crime Investigators (RCIs) from Richmond Police District made extensive inquiries in the area.

At 2.50pm on Thursday, February 8, investigators stopped a 44-year-old man travelling east in a white Toyota utility on Tweed Valley Way near Murwillumbah.

At the time there was a large amount of irri-

gation pipe stacked on the utility which police will allege was stolen from the Cudgen farm.

The Murwillumbah man was spoken to and arrested in relation to the theft of the irrigation pipe and other unrelated matters.

He was taken to Murwillumbah Police Station where he was charged and refused bail.

The man appeared in Tweed Heads Local Court on February 9 on charges of stealing (irrigation pipe), entering enclosed agricultural lands and interfering with a business, driving while his licence was disqualified and offences relating to false and misleading number plates on a vehicle.

Investigations are continuing.

The Rural Crime Prevention Team encourages the early reporting of all rural crimes to maximise the likelihood of a positive outcome.

There are several avenues to report rural crimes, including attending or contacting your local police station, calling the Police Assistance Line on 131 444 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Treatments also available: Cosmetic Tattooing, IPL/Laser Hair Removal Treatments, Waxing, Tinting, Lash Lifts.

VOLUNTEERS FROM Marine Rescue Point Danger towed a disabled 18-metre motor cruiser with three people on board off Cape Byron a total of 55 kilometres to safety at Tweed Heads.

Marine Rescue NSW said radio operators at Port Macquarie took a call for assistance from the vessel after it experienced mechanical issues and lost all power, three kilometres off Cape Byron around 7.15pm on Tuesday, February 6.

Marine Rescue Brunswick was tasked for the mission on Brunswick 30. They reached the distressed vessel that was travelling from Sydney to Queensland and took it under tow.

Marine Rescue Point Danger skipper Guy Youngblutt said they were called at about 8pm to assist.

“When we got there we realised how big it was,” Guy said.

“It was lucky Brunswick got to them first because they were heading towards the shore and they were worried they were going to get washed ashore close south of Byron, around Lennox Head.

“Brunswick took them in tow but it was a much bigger vessel than theirs.

“They dragged them east away from shore and were slowly bringing them back under tow.”

Point Danger 31 came alongside the stricken vessel and swapped over tow ropes.

“Brunswick dropped their tow once we connected,” Guy said.

“It’s fairly tricky, but something we train for a lot, and we talk to Brunswick so we know the plan.

“It was a 58-foot boat, it was just over 20 tonnes and fully loaded. We are just under nine tonnes but we have 975 horsepower, three 325 Suzukis to tow it and we didn’t tow it at a great deal of speed.

“When we got there one of them was sea sick from being in the swell and not moving a lot so once we got them under tow we said they just

needed someone on deck in case the tow line breaks so they can let us know.”

Guy said there was a one to two-metre swell and the winds “weren’t too bad, but it was fairly challenging with such a big boat behind you”.

“You knew when they got hit by a big wind gust,” he said.

“We were going around six knots and we took it under tow around 10.30pm or 11pm.

“There was an outgoing tide at Ballina and it was fairly low so we either needed to wait there or go somewhere else.

“Brunswick bar was too low so we decided to head for Tweed because we know Tweed bar and that it would be okay to cross it as there would be an incoming tide when we arrived.”

Radio operator Alan Rawlinson was on duty at the Point Danger headquarters doing situation reports every 30 minutes, with the crew swapping roles every half hour to stay alert.

The journey to the Tweed Bar took around six hours with PD 31 crossing around 4.30am.

“There was more water for getting across the bar and it was a lot safer,” Guy said.

“We had to cross at six knots so the waves, which travel at 14 to 16 knots, were overtaking us but they weren’t too bad.”

The crew wrapped up at 6.30am and went home to get some sleep as some of the volunteers, including one doctor, had to work that afternoon.

Cattle market strengthens A VERY good yarding of just over 650 cattle were sold at the Murwillumbah Cattle Sale Yards on Saturday, February 10.

Quality was “very good overall” according to auctioneer Brent Casey, who highlighted some great lines of weaners being sold and some good cows and calves also yarded.

“We’ve seen a very strong market right across the board with buyers from near and wide trying to take advantage of the change in season and forecast of more widespread rain,” he said.

“We had buyers from Roma, Dalby, Wandoan, Armidale, Walgett, down to Victoria to name a few.”

“We saw grower steers sell from $3.22/kg to $3.60/kg, averaging $3.38/kg.”

MOTORI NG IN THE TWEED

By Jo Kennett

TWEED-BYRON Highway Patrol have provided education to a young man of the “dangers, stupidity and consequences” of doing burnouts after an incident outside the Imperial Hotel in Murwillumbah on Sunday, February 4.

Police said at about 10pm, the 23-yearold man was driving a Queensland registered white Holden Commodore utility and was observed “accelerating harshly causing both rear tyres to lose traction on the roadway” — or in other words a burnout.

Police said the man was violently swinging the ute to its right and collided heavily

with a concrete garden outside the hotel where a patron had to run to avoid being hit by the vehicle.

“The man continued with the loss of traction along Murwillumbah Street for approximately 90 to 100 metres with the majority of the loss of traction on the wrong side of the road,” police said.

“Seconds later, Highway Patrol officers attended the scene to see smoke still in the area and burnout marks along the roadway.”

Police were able to identify the vehicle and driver, who was issued a Field Court Attendance Notice to front Murwillumbah Local Court for the offence of ‘aggravated burnout’.

His Queensland licence was immediately

suspended in NSW until determined at court.

His ‘beloved utility’ was towed and confiscated for three months.

Police said the man will not only have to deal with the consequences from court but also pay the towing and holding fees to have his vehicle released at the completion of the three months.

Police advised locals to “protect your community” and if you see someone dangerous driving or riding, “report it”.

“Everyone can help keep our roads safe,” police said.

If you see, suspect, or know something, call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or report online at nsw.crimestoppers.com.au

His pride and joy will spend three months in the lock up at his expense

TWEED SHIRE Councillor James Owen says he’s hearing increasing concerns around the use of e-bikes, e-scooters and e-skateboards on Tweed roads, footpaths and shared user pathways in recent months.

The issue of walkers versus e-vehicles is one that The Weekly has also seen a recent rise in concerns and complaints — many calling for a police crackdown.

Cr Owen will raise a motion during council’s monthly meeting this week to write to the state government and local police to develop a plan around the issue.

“A lot of people have approached me to raised their concerns about e-bikes, e-scooters and e-skateboards on Tweed Shire’s roads, paths and shared user paths,” Cr Owen.

“There have been several incidents where people have been concerned for their safety because of the fast, erratic or dangerous riding and we need to look at ways to prevent a serious incident from occurring.”

E-scooters are currently illegal in NSW and although e-bikes are legal, people can only use “bicycles that meet the requirements for permitted e-bikes on public roads and road-related areas”.

Cr Owen said he’s worried that someone is going to get seriously hurt.

“So the notice of motion about looking at what we can do in collaboration with the police and state government to keep our community safe,” he said.

Cr Owen’s motion will ask for staff to write to the Tweed Byron Police District and ask them to provide advice in relation to actions being taken to address the increasing community concerns about dangerous e-bike and e-scooter riding on Tweed roads, footpaths and shared user paths. As well as writing to the Minister for Transport to raise the concerns of the Tweed Shire Community and to seek advice on the NSW Government Plans for regulation of e-bikes and e-scooters.

Finally, the motion will call on council to provide a brief report on the measures that council can take to support community safety and amenity in relation to e-bikes and e-scooters.

“These measures may include signage, education campaign including but not limited to media, social media, workshops, advertising,” Cr Owen’s motion said.

TOYOTA AUSTRALIA has announced that it will initiate a safety recall involving certain Toyota Yaris vehicles produced between May 21, 2020, to January 19, 2024 (inclusive).

There are approximately 9,070 vehicles involved in the Australian market.

For involved vehicles, there is a possibility that the ball joint attachment area of the front lower suspension arm may corrode and cause cracks if the vehicle is frequently exposed to snow-melting chemicals in snowy areas.

If the vehicle continues to be driven, cracks may increase. In the worst case, the front lower suspension arm may break allowing the ball joint to dislodge resulting in reduced vehicle stability that may increasing the risk of a crash.

For all involved vehicles, Toyota dealers will replace the left and right lower suspension arms with improved ones free of charge to vehicle owners.

Lower suspension arm replacement will take approximately three hours.

Depending on the dealer’s work schedule, owners may be required to make the vehicle available for a longer period of time.

Open to the public Monday to Friday 7am to 430pm Saturdays 7am to 12pm Complying to the current Biosecurity fire ant order.

TWEED VALLEY Wildlife Carers is the Tweed’s dedicated wildlife rescue service and Councillor Meredith Dennis will move a motion this week to boost funding to the volunteer group to $30,000 per year.

Cr Dennis will raise the motion during a council meeting on Thursday, February 15.

She said the funds highlight the group’s crucial role and that it is entirely run by volunteers and donations.

Cr Dennis stressed the dramatic increases in costs and call volumes taken by the group.

“In 2018, council recognised the great community service this group provides to the Tweed by providing a 24-hour, seven-day-a-week rescue service where injured or sick native animals from all over the shire are collected and looked after by volunteers who rehabilitate and release animals or humanely end the suffering of those that cannot be rescued,” Cr Dennis’s motion reads.

“At that time council unanimously resolved to fund the Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers (TVWC) $15,000 per year to help care for our wildlife.”

Cr Dennis will move that council increases the yearly contribution from $15,000 to $30,000 to meet the workload.

Cr Dennis’s motion highlighted the extreme costs imposed on wildlife carers, especially with fuel and feed costs, with some skyrocketing fourfold in three years.

In fact, in the 2020/21 financial year, wildlife carers paid almost $3,000 in fuel costs, while in the 2022/23 financial year its fuel bill was $14,164.

“In the last 6 months, the group has come to the rescue of 1,947 animals,” the report reads.

Council’s report states that it has provided Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers $5,000 per annum in funding dating back to 2014/15.

“In 2017/18 this was increased to $15,000

and it was understood that the group would also embark on fundraising activities similar to that of other groups such as Friends of the Pound,” the report reads.

Council’s report stated it is not supportive of its contribution doubling as it is 63 per cent greater than if CPI had been applied and 72 per cent greater than if the contribution had been indexed by the rate peg.

“Council officers would be supportive of a modest increase that align to the rate peg over the period being $17,500 annually (or a $2,500 increase) and that this figure then be indexed annually in accordance with council’s income being the rate peg,” council report reads.

Councillors are set to discuss and vote on the matter during their meeting this week.

SMOKEHOUSE BBQ at Murwillumbah Leagues Club is back in business this Sunday, February 18, following a tumultuous start to 2024.

Smokehouse owner Will Magnusson said he opened for two weeks in January before intense rainfall put a temporary stop to trading.

“We had three floods at the club in three weeks, which had a major impact on our Sunday trading days,” he said.

“The whole lower lever, where the Smokehouse operates, was flooded up to my knee height and meant we were forced to cancel our cook-ups.

“But we’re back this Sunday with our delicious range and eager to serve our regulars, visitors and newcomers.”

The Smokehouse, in conjunction with Murwillumbah Leagues Club, has booked Dave Ash

to perform on the day with some great tunes to keep everyone entertained.

“We’ve also booked in a slip-n-slide for the kids to stay cool and keep them entertained as well,” he said.

“Please come down and try our award-winning smoked meats and support our great local club.”

Will, who has a background as a carpenter, said he’s been busy refurbishing the lower level of the Leagues Club to get ready for the reopening.

“The floods had a major impact here, but we’ve done all the work and we’re ready to reopen and it’s looking fantastic,” he said.

The event starts at noon and will run until around 6pm or until sold out (no bookings required).

Charlie Seymour-Grant at home with his daughter Juno

Piggabeen local’s a rising star PIGGABEEN LOCAL Charlie Seymour-Grant took his first step towards stardom when he performed on Channel Ten recently.

He played his original song Pendulum solo, inspired by the flood disaster, but he is the frontman of the band Charlie’s Mind, based along the Tweed Heads-Gold Coast area.

Charlie recently graduated with a music degree, and his lecturers thought he was so talented they decided to start a band with him.

Charlie’s Mind has released several songs on Spotify, with more on the way.

The Weekly spoke to Charlie as he was sanding an antique desk at his property at Piggabeen.

“I’m recording my first album at Lovestreet Studios in Currumbin,” he told The Weekly.

Charlie does the vocals, songwriting and guitar. His former teachers Sam Besmehn-Burt and Donovan Lee play bass and drums. Recording an album is an act of faith and costs money.

“We’ve applied for a grant and we’re just

hoping that goes through,” he said. “Fingers crossed. Otherwise we have to figure out something like crowdfunding.”

Judging from the clip on the Studio 10 show, Charlie sounds a bit like Jeff Buckley, and looks like a young romantic poet.

A Southern Cross University graduate with a Bachelor of Contemporary Music, Charlie has shared stages with notable artists such as Hands Like Houses, Pacific Avenue, and TyneJames Organ.

Influenced by the emotional depth of Jeff Buckley and Matt Corby, his music and performances are enigmatic, heartfelt and alive.

“I want music to be my entire life,” Charlie said. “I want to pursue it forever and connect with people all over the world. It’s all I think about and want to be doing.

“I want be a successful artist and sell out shows, so I can keep creating.”

FEATURED BUSINESS MADE RUSTIC Designs are experts in creating customised landscapes that are driven by their client’s vision.

The business owner, Ben Clark, has more than two decades of experience and is passionate about taking his client’s vision and translating that into stunning garden designs.

“Put simply, we love to create spaces that our clients love to come home to,” he said.

“This may include a garden redesign, changing the shape of gardens, plants and increasing the flow through your garden.”

Ben is joined by his trusty sidekick and equally passionate landscaper Barbara Leone, who is from the Faroe Islands in Denmark and has lived on the Gold Coast for more than 12 years.

Together, the dynamic duo have the motivation and creativity to make your landscaping dreams come true.

“One thing I have learnt time and time again is that the b es t r es u lts come from a collaborative approach between the client a n d u s . Learning what clients love and don’t love is crucial,” Ben said.

“From there we add our thoughts based on what we have seen work/ not work.

“Usually there is a ‘click’ moment, where both us and the client are excited to start. This is key before beginning any project.”

Whilst only relatively new to the Tweed Shire, the pair have already made a great name for themselves.

process was working with a client and her family heirloom – a beautiful Japanese Toro, which is a a traditional Japanese lantern,” Ben said.

“In one of our initial meetings, we were able to understand what type of garden the client wanted and it was then that the client remembered she had access to the Toro.

“This was the ‘click’ moment we search for before starting a garden design. It became the centre piece of the design and provided that initial excitement to start.”

Testimonial: “Just marvelling in the complexity of the simplicity. Positioning of everything, use of different sized stones, placement of greenery…You’ve nailed it!” said the happy customer.

Life-changing experience awaits at The Stables

By Madeleine Murray

LOCAL AUTHOR AND BREATHWORK COACH Gavin McGahey is giving a six-week somatic breathwork workshop starting on Tuesday February 13.

This interesting journey of self-discovery is held with Stacey Pamment at

Yoga and wellness facilitator Stacey Pamment

The Stables, a new venue out on Cane Road, Tygalgah. Once home to racehorses, The Stables is a big, spacious airy place, perfect for events and workshops.

The program held each Tuesday evening is designed to help people navigate life’s challenges, foster healing and self-improvement.

Breathwork uses different breathing techniques to change your state of being. It often includes a series of controlled breaths and staged breath-holds, all designed to tap into your body’s healing potential.

“Breathwork changed my life,” Gavin told The Weekly. “It helped me move through depression and anxiety – it provided me with clarity and clearness.

“My journey wasn’t easy. Facing a painful mar-

riage breakdown and personal turmoil, I found solace and strength in the practices I now teach.

“Through each breath, we aim to unlock the doors to healing and transformation within each of us, fostering a stronger connection between the heart and mind.”

Each week, you will go on unique breathwork journeys, including Letting Go, Transcending Fear, Healing Ancestral TrauYoga mats, bolsters and ma, and others. These headphones are provided sessions are designed for a comfortable, immersive experience

to help you find a new sense of purpose, heal trauma, or continue your path of inner work.

This reporter did some breathwork sessions years ago, and it changed her life. She changed her friends, her suburb and her career. She went from painting backdrops for films to writing for newspapers and magazine. It can have a profound effect.

It all sounds a bit vague until you actually do it. You will be welcomed by Gavin and Stacey and relax in a large, open airy space, with music and incense. After setting an intention, you will lie on a yoga mat and do guided breathwork with individual headphones. The process will end with reflection, sharing and a closing ceremony.

The rural setting and the view of Mt Warning/Wollumbin add to the magic of the experience.

The series welcomes people from all walks of life, whether seeking to heal trauma, find a new sense of purpose, or simply deepen their journey of self-improvement and inner work.

The six-week somatic breathwork series begins at 7pm on Tuesday February 13 at The Stables, 243 Cane Rd, Tygalgah. For more info go to events.humanitix.com/ heart-mind-connection-somatic-breathworkseries-at-the-stables The venue is open and airy

Spedding wins BMX title

By Jo Kennett

A LOCAL teenager has been hauling in the medals in the state and national BMX Freestyle titles this year and has been crowned Australian National Amateur Boys Champion.

Seventeen-year-old Carool local, Will Spedding, took gold and was crowned AusCycling NSW/ACT BMX Freestyle Amateur (15+) state champion on Sunday, January 21 in Tuggeranong in the ACT. “Will has been riding BMX Freestyle since he was 12 years old and has travelled to China, Europe and South Africa to compete,” Will’s mum Donna said.

“He is categorised as one of AusCycling’s developing and emerging athletes across Australia which allows him to train at the National Training Centre on the Gold Coast alongside the Olympic team including gold medalist, Logan Martin.”

Will is coached by six times X Games gold medalist, Kyle Baldock.

Following his NSW/ACT state championship win, Will continued his successful competition run bringing home the gold medal, jersey and title of Australian National Boys Amateur Champion in Melbourne on the weekend at the AusCycling BMX Freestyle Nationals.

According to an article from AusCycling,

“William Spedding has emerged as a name to watch for the future, as the next generation of BMX Freestylers put on a show for the RampFest crowds in the amateur categories.

“In a field of 12 finalists, Spedding stood out as the rider most capable of joining the elite ranks in 2025, putting together a strong run to win the gold medal from Brodie Quick and last year’s Under 15 national champion Koby Carrol. This is an amazing result for Will, having just returned from surgery on a Bennett’s fracture in January,” Donna Spedding said.

“Following on from the win, Will has been invited to compete in the Converse ULT.X 2024 against a stacked elite field in Cape Town, South Africa in early March.”

ULT.X is South A f r i c a’s p re m i e r action sport event, with Will being one of only three Aussies invited in the field of 40 of the world’s best BMX and skateboarding talent. It’s a huge achievement and a sign of big things to Australian Boys Amateur come for the young Champion Will Spedding Carool man. is a local champion

NORTHERN RIVERS Skateboard Club (NRSC) is rolling into 2024 after a very successful 2023 and it’s your chance to get involved.

Skate days in 2023 were held at various locations such as Ballina and Byron Skate parks and Truckstop Sk8 shop and Byron Bay Sk8 school.

Members also made their way down to Yamba for an Intercomp with the NRSC sister club Mid North Coast Skateboarders.

NRCS walked away with the win after both a street and bowl event.

To round up the year, awards of excellence were given to standout performances throughout the year. The 2023 winners list are: • Male Skater of the Year; Archie Simpson Lennox Head • Female Skater of the Year; Tanisha Gardner, Pottsville • Skater Grom of the Year; Maasi Solano, Ballina • Keenest Grom; Noa Cavandish, Pottsville This year is set to bring events every month, where local skaters can meet other keen skateboarders to compete in a friendly environment at the skateparks and local skateschools.

There are also planned other activities such as a visit to the HPC in Pottsville with a coach and a Yoga session made specifically for skateboarders.

Members will also get demos from some of the best young skaters in the country plus exclusive visits to some private parks in our area.

Club members who prove to have a great passion and talent, will have the opportunity to be chosen for the North Coast Academy of Sports Skateboarding development program, which is the next step to become a skateboarding athlete and possible Olympic selection in future.

The first club round will be held at Byron Bay Skate Park on February 24 at 9am.

“NRSB invites current and new members to join and take your skateboarding skills to the

next level in a fun, no-pressure, safe, positive community-focused environment,” a spokesperson for the group said.

“We have an opens division for competitive skaters of all ages, and the junior division for the kids under 12 who are keen to learn more tricks and put a line together each month.

“Northern Rivers (Boneless) Skateboard Club is a non-profit organisation run by volunteers, and is the only club in our region associated with Skate NSW, the governing body of roller sports in Australia.

“During 2024 we want to give more financial support to our members, who travel the country gaining points for their national ranking to be selected for future Olympic training camps.

“We are looking for main sponsors to help provide prizes, coaching, equipment, and subsidised travel so 2024 is bigger and better than the highly successful 2023.”

To join or enquire to sponsor the great local club please email: bonelessskateclub@gmail.com and keep an eye on our Instagram @Northernriversskateboardclub and Facebook pages for updates and further information.

The Northern Rivers Skateboard Club Boneless Brigade is ready for 2024 - join the crew!

The rental yield is 3.3 per cent per annum, but it’s a great place for tenants with the average rent in 2021, according to the Census, just $285.

That may well have risen since then, as most places around the shire have, but it’s still a darn sight cheaper than most other areas.

The Chillingham Village Markets are held at the Chillingham Community Centre on the second Sunday of the month (8am until 1pm) and are really worth a visit.

It’s a lovely drive through the hills and rainforest to the village but well worth it to soak up all that nature and take some well-earned time out from our busy lives.

THIS WEEK’S hot property is a gorgeous Queenslander on acreage just out of Chillingham.

The farmhouse at 1182 Numinbah Road was built in 1922 and has lovely art deco features and stunning views from Wollumbin to Springbrook.

The four-bedroom home sits on a big 2.85-hectare block and has ornate art deco ceiling mouldings, cornices and original light fittings, polished timber floors, tongue and groove walls, casement windows, stained glass, picture rails, fretwork, and 2.9-metre ceilings.

It has two spacious living areas, a covered front deck and a DA approved for a covered rear deck as well.

It’s just two kilometres from the lovely village of Chillingham, a hub for the local community and tourists alike, and a quick ten kilometres from Murwillumbah for all your shopping needs.

The property has a six by six metre shed/garage, an insulated studio ideal for a home office or the budding artist, an off-grid solar panel system, and a 7.2kVA back-up generator so you can forget about the outside world and enjoy the abundant natural beauty of the surrounding land.

It also has two 22,500 litre water tanks and the property has been rewired and replumbed so everything is in good working order, as well as a bitumen driveway.

This lovely historic home is on the market with Kristie at Elders Tweed Valley Murwillumbah, contact agent for price.
