Tweed lashed by heavy rain causing minor to moderate flood

A PRIVATE CREMATION

    

Boat owners battled gale force winds and waves on the Tweed River during the deluge

NSW SES Tweed Heads fill sandbags and delivered them to Banora Point and Tweed residents experiencing water inundation.

Banora’s Point’s Caitlyn Knowles was one of many residents in the Banora, Terranora and Tweed Heads area who did not get much sleep during the rain event.

“Our ceiling has a massive hole in it from too much water being in it and it burst open,” she told The Weekly.

“We heard a rumble and thought one of the gutters overflowed.

“The SES came around 2am to help with the water; they were great, they put sandbags around our house to stop the water.

“The downstairs bathroom is still getting water in, but it is better now.

Fortunately they were able to nail the plaster in the ceiling back down so the wind wouldn’t lift off the roof.”

On Sunday morning, December 13, NSW SES Tweed Heads said members had been out all night assisting the community with flooding, leaking roofs, and multiple flood rescues.

The weather backed off a bit on Sunday, December 13, but the NSW SES issued SMS warnings to Tweed residents on Sunday night for heavy rain and dangerous flash flooding overnight.

Holiday-makers were asked to defer any unnecessary travel “with popular holiday parks, hotels and accommodation in the Northern Rivers at full capacity.”

The rain eased along the coast on Sunday night and much of the heavy falls forecast for Monday failed to eventuate, although the rain did not stop.

Owners worked to secure their boats on the Tweed River as gale force winds lashed their moorings, with some boats losing their tenders and owners stranded onboard having to be rescued.

Murwillumbah businesses reeling after vandalism

By Jonathon Howard SEVERAL MURWILLUMBAH business owners are hoping CCTV footage can help police track down and arrest those responsible for a spate of mindless vandalism that occurred on Sunday, December 13.

In what appears to be a search for alcohol, three men, aged between 20 and 40, have allegedly kicked and thrown rocks through business windows.

Ben’s Patisserie and The Regent Cinema were among the targets in the break-in and attempted break-in, with the three men seen smashing the business’s windows at about 12.30am.

The two owners were reeling after finding their shopfronts smashed, including patisserie owner Ben Leonardi, who told The Weekly he was “extremely disappointed”.

“I just hope with clear CCTV the police can track them down and bring them before the court,” he said.

“It was a devastating blow and they also pushed the coffee machine off the bench, which is worth a lot and we will need to get it tested.”

Mr Leonardi said he was able to get his window fixed thanks to help from

Luffy’s Glass and he was back up and running to open on Wednesday.

“He was quick to help secure the premises and we cleaned up. It’s hard as I’m trying to run a business and then you have to clean this up on your day off, it’s a lot to deal with.”

Mr Leonardi said he believes the vandals were looking for alcohol and appeared drunk on the CCTV footage.

The Regent Theatre owner Allira Cornell said the vandals found it difficult to break through the front window of her business and one of the men cut himself.

“We caught them on our CCTV, it was pretty clear three blokes around 20 to 40s, hard to tell their specific age though, not teens,” she said.

“I just feel for Ben’s business and hope the police can track them down. We were able to keep the property secure fortunately.”

By Jo Kennett THE TWEED Shire was lashed by gale force winds, huge seas, king tides and heavy rainfall, combining to create a wild week of weather beginning on Saturday, December 12.

School was called off, sporting events were cancelled and many residents were unable to leave their homes as they became stranded due to floodwater.

Many residents contacted The Weekly throughout the event and several provided a range of dramatic images.

The first bad blow hit on Saturday night, with power outages, flooding, trees down and damage to houses in the Banora Point/Terranora area where 210mm fell in 24 hours.

Over the four days from Saturday, December 12 to Tuesday, December 15, rainfall totals up to almost 600mm were recorded throughout the Tweed Valley.

Doon Doon received 594mm, Bald Mountain 575mm, Tomewin 575mm – of which 370mm was recorded in 24 hours, Upper Burringbar received 552mm and Boat Harbour recorded 547mm.

NSW SES Casino Unit, Cudgen Rural Fire Brigade (RFB), Bilambil RFB, Fire and Rescue NSW Swiftwater, and Fire and Rescue NSW all came to the assistance of Tweed Shire SES crews during the event.

Letter of the Week

CONGRATULATIONS JOHN TILTON

You have won a double pass* to the film of your choice

*Redeemable for 1 month from publication date

Call for more police in 2021

I happily obliged when I and other residents from Dulguigan received a letter from the police asking us to assist them in apprehending the hoons terrorising our village with their burnouts, races and complete disregard for the safety of others.

The police wanted number plates and a description of the car.

That’s not so easy at 1am on a Friday night, but I obliged and chased them down the road to be close enough to get their numbers on my dash cam. All of them just little boys that have been given a car licence to create mayhem within our community.

Now you have to understand the whole story. I took those number plates into the police station at Murwillumbah and the plot thickens. They then tell you that you need video. They can’t prosecute unless you give them video of the number plates of the cars doing the burnouts.

So, now they want me staked out with my night vision $3,000 video camera at the pines at Dulguigan and to wait for them. Somehow, I thought that was their job.

So, it appears the letter was just a means by which the police hierarchy could show politicians they were doing something. Silly me, I believed the letter.

If you live in Murwillumbah and you think you have a police force in this town, then go in and talk with them. The station will be locked and empty and you will be asked to press a button and you will get Tweed Police.

They will tell you someone will call you. But they don’t. When my wife and daughter were nearly hit by a hoon doing burnouts at 6pm, I went in to report the incident with the number plates. No one there.

No response. The guy is still doing burnouts.

Now try ringing the Murwillumbah Police Station at night when the hoons are out and about. It diverts to Tweed.

After waiting five minutes on hold they will tell you they will ‘log it’ and send a car. They never do, in my opinion. I have waited and seriously I mean never. Drug overdoses, domestic violence and other crimes get priority. Murwillumbah has one car on at night and two police, so this town keeps them busy and the hoons know it.

It is time the residents of this town took a stance and demanded that we be given a proper police force to protect our families. Our local member needs to act.

John Tilton, Dulguigan

Don’t like it, don’t live here

Once again, we have the same people complaining and being negative about anything and everything that is related to progress and improvement in Kingscliff (TVW, December 10, advertisement page 30).

No doubt these are the same negative views who were opposed to the new Tweed Valley Hospital being built here at Kingscliff. However, one can be assured they will be the first to use that facility should they need it in the future.

I wrote to The Weekly then saying that those who opposed the new hospital should simply move somewhere else and I repeat that advice to them now.

The infilling of the swamp on both sides of Turnock Street will provide extra housing for people to come and live in Kingscliff and will also bring much-needed employment to the area.

Most certainly there will be increased traffic and disruption during this process as no doubt there was when development was taking place to enable housing now occupied by those now complaining.

C H Ainsworth, Kingscliff

Why is Letitia Road closed?

I have to say I am very curious about what authority the Council has to close a public road such as Letitia Road? I see the Council is using COVID-19 as a reason, but we all know all of Australia, except for WA, is open for business. So, I expect my council to open this road immediately, no ifs or buts, so I and other ratepayers have access to and from this road, Alan Martin, Banora Point

Open up Letitia Road for Christmas break

Come on Tweed Shire Council, Letitia Road at Fingal Head was closed to vehicles to help stop the spread of coronavirus.

So was the Queensland border, so was the NSW border, so was the South Australian border, so was the Western Australian border. All states’ borders have now opened.

Please councillors open Letitia Road, a public road. I would like to drive to South Head at the mouth of the Tweed River to go fishing and swimming. It is Crown land I believe and a beautiful part of the Tweed Shire.

Cheryl Pettigrew, Fingal Head

Destruction of sacred sites

Many readers would be unaware that the so-called ‘quarry’ at Fingal Head was originally a sacred site containing caves with Dreamtime legends surrounding them.

But by 1895, the last basalt cave was destroyed and the stone used for the construction of the sea wall at the Tweed River mouth.

One-hundred-and-fifteen years after the Fingal tragedy we have the destruction by Rio Tinto of the sacred caves at Juukan Gorge in the Pilbara, Western Australia and the

dust hasn’t settled on that one, yet we still don’t seem to learn.

Right now in our nation’s fair capital, Canberra, the gurus of economic growth and environmental destruction are about to give the green light to the bulldozing of the remnants of another ancient Aboriginal site.

I suppose to those in the community who believe in nothing other than money, can’t begin to understand the complexity of mankind’s common ancient heritage and the major source of religious worship, and don’t want to, the whole thing is a storm in a teacup.

But it’s far more than that; it represents our shared identity as a species. For example, Aboriginal my t h o l o g y c o n c e r n i n g t h e constellation of Pleiades, or the Seven Sisters, is linked to Japan, India and ancient Mesopotamia, as well as Russia, the Maori and other Pacific Islands, as well as South America. The Pleiades is only one of many such examples, there are plenty of others. Surely, even the laissez-faire, including hardened atheists, must understand that. And, if nothing else, begin to feel a little uneasy about it all.

However, a sacred site albeit destroyed, as for example the Fingal ‘quarry’, remains a sacred site, the Dreamtime legends are not erased by wanton destruction and our collective actions simply serve to remind future generations of the cultural genocide perpetrated on Aboriginal peoples the world over.

Eddy Kemp, Fingal Head

CCTV poses no threat

As usual, the ever-entertaining Menkit Prince continues to drink from the Kool-Aid fountain in Uki. There is no China threat. I’ll take a punt, go out on a limb and state that China is not surveilling the good residents of the Tweed. Rest easy.

There is no “artificial intelligence ready to integrate a social credit system as they have in China”.

Whatever the hell that means.

This is not a gross invasion of privacy. Facebook, Google maps and Target, know more about you than data collected from CCTV. CCTV is reactive, not proactive. It simply records incidences that have occurred. This valuable data has allowed police to capture criminals of the highest calibre.

Surely you’d be okay with the police arresting a multiple rapist later convicted of the murder of a young woman out for a night’s entertainment from CCTV data.

Gary Sutton, Tweed Heads

Men need to stay safe in water

I write to ask men in particular in your local area to help Royal Life Saving in its mission to prevent drowning this summer.

We know that too many men are taking unnecessary risks. They overestimate their abilities and underestimate the risks, and this continues to be our greatest challenge.

Men are over-represented in the drowning statistics, particularly men aged 25 to 44. In the past year, over 90 per cent of those who drowned in this age group were males.

Re s e a r c h s h ow s a l c o h o l consumption is a significant contributor to drowning. Almost 1 in 5 (19%) drowning deaths among men aged 25 to 44 recorded a blood alcohol content of .05% or more.

That’s the over the legal limit to drive a motor vehicle.

We ask The Weekly readers to “Make the Right Call”. That means avoiding alcohol around water, always wearing a lifejacket when boating, kayaking or canoeing and please avoid going alone.

mall also failed to recognise the need for better accessibility.”

Cr Allsop said recent innovations at M|Arts and the Tweed Regional Gallery should serve as a platform for the town’s future.

“Tweed’s old CBD Murwillumbah is being recognised now by many as a magnificent opportunity for a relaxed but mature space to enjoy,” he said.

“The quirky businesses that are popping up here and there also are part of the attraction.

“Developing the entrance into our town will further add to the draw of visitors.”

Cr Allsop said architectural firm Partner Shop has provided some imaginative graphics of ideas to beautify CBD.

“These conceptual images are inspiring and speak to the vision of those looking to escalate the great town’s feel,” he said.

“The town has good bones, and keeping this a minimalistic approach is a strategy the highlights all these great attributes.

“One doesn’t need a lot of imagination to see how improving the old Sunnyside skeleton to be fitting with all that’s emerging could be a real attraction for our CBD and its future.”

Cr Allsop has long campaigned to improve the main streets of the Murwillumbah CBD including during his election run in 2016, as pictured above.

By Jonathon Howard IT’S TIME to give Murwillumbah’s entrance street, Wollumbin Street, a facelift, according to Tweed Shire Councillor Pryce Allsop, who has gained a unanimous vote from his fellow councillors to undertake a beautification project for the busy street.

The late agenda item was voted on during Council’s final meeting for 2020 and a report will be prepared for funding a street beautification project for Wollumbin Street, focusing particularly on the southern frontage between Commercial Road and Brisbane Street.

Council will also make an application under the state government’s ‘Your High Street’ grants program for Alma and Wollumbin Street including, if possible, the roundabouts and external surrounds of the Visitor Information Centre.

“There is a groundswell of support for the entrance of town to be beautified and this includes an extension to Sunnyside Mall,” Cr Allsop said.

“It would seem the architects and developers of Sunnyside originally spent little time appreciating the attributes of the surroundings outside of the immediate CBD of Murwillumbah.

“It seems that with only a little imagination, one can see there is scope to incorporate the spectacular views into a mall like Sunnyside by framing the outstanding views, as done by our fantastic Tweed Regional Gallery.

“To present a first-class view from a mall surrounded by so much beauty is a no-brainer.

“The mall’s first draft was to only consider the lettable area inside the big walls, but failed to address the potential broader appeal of the outside world. The

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Skiing deemed risky so no liability When two experienced skiers crashed into each other on the slopes of Perisher Valley, it ended up in a battle over a claim for personal injury liability in the NSW Supreme Court.

It began in 2014, when a ski instructor employed

by Perisher Blue ski resort collided with an experienced female skier. They were not skiing together, and she failed to see the instructor until he hit her from uphill as their paths crossed.

The female skier was injured and had to undergo surgery. She took the instructor’s employer to court, claiming it was vicariously liable for its employee’s negligence which resulted in life changing injuries, including to her hand, knee and shoulder, as well as PTSD. Six years later, in a 327 paragraph judgement citing five pieces of legislation and 29 previous cases, Justice Richard Cavanagh gave his verdict.

He ruled the collision was caused by the ski instructor’s negligence, but Perisher Blue was not liable to pay damages to the woman, because there was an obvious risk involved in engaging in a dangerous recreational activity – namely skiing.

Justin Stack, personal injury lawyer and managing director at Stacks Law Firm, said the decision hinged on the wording of section 5K of the NSW Civil Liability Act 2002.

“This section defines ‘dangerous recreational activity’ as a recreational activity that involves a significant risk of physical harm,” Mr Stack said.

“The definition of recreational activity is very broad.

It includes any sport – whether it is organised or not – and any pursuit or activity engaged in for enjoyment, relaxation or leisure.

“The defence rests in Section 5L, which states that the defendant is not liable for negligence if the plaintiff engages with the ‘obvious risk of a dangerous recreational activity’.”

The woman argued skiing wasn’t a dangerous activity. The judge disagreed.

“Persons have been killed and suffered catastrophic injuries whilst skiing,” the judge said.

“I am considering whether the recreational activity, which is skiing, involves a significant risk of harm.

In my view it does.”

The judge concluded that although he accepted the woman was injured as a result of negligence by the instructor, “this is another sporting injury case in which the defendant has the benefit of the dangerous recreational provisions of the Civil Liability Act”.

Councillors vote to undertake flood study of Leagues Club

By Jonathon Howard THE MURWILLUMBAH Leagues Club (MLC) is set to undergo an urgent drainage study, following a motion

by Cr Chris Cherry and Cr Pryce Allsop that was carried during Tweed Shire Council’s monthly meeting on Thursday, December 10.

The Leagues Club, or Brothers as it was previously known, is a privately owned and operated club and sports field that was established at Dorothy Street more than 40 years ago.

The club says it has been dealing with drainage, sewerage and stormwater issues for the past 20 to 25 years and they are asking Council to convert an open drain to an underground pipe, which Council estimates would cost $300,000.

A report compiled by Council highlighted that the site is prone to flooding and sewage overflows from Council networks, “due to local topography and historic infrastructure development”.

“In 2020 MLC has experienced flooding of the sporting field and the ground level of the registered club, as well as wet and dry weather sewage overflows,” Council’s report read.

“These events significantly impact the Club’s operations and events, causing disruptions and postponements, incurring clean-up costs, exposing the club to health and safety and liability

Murwillumbah Leagues Club during the flood this week (December 14)

risks, and affecting the viability of the registered club.”

The Club’s president Clint O’Keefe has wrote to Council’s General Manager Troy Green calling for a solution to the issue.

Mr O’Keefe said the issue was brought to his attention since becoming president of the Leagues Club back in November 2019.

“The Club board have had several meetings with Council in the past regarding this problem to no avail,” he said.

“The most recent, made in back in 2006 when the levee wall was done and raised behind our property, the Council was going to put some form of pump station to remove the stormwater over the wall, which would remove the problem of

flooding in a normal event. This still has not happened.”

The new study will include hydraulic modelling of the stormwater drainage network, surface water flows and interaction with flood mitigation devices.

“Particular focus needs to be given to providing recommendations to reduce flooding in the short term for the MLC site, including consideration of the installation of a flood pump and the optimal and most cost-effective method to enclose the existing open stormwater channel,” the motion from Cr Cherry and Cr Polglase reads.

Council officers had recommended that the site be monitored for the next six to twelve months before any further action is taken.

Kingscliff Ratepayers Association object to haulage route

By Jonathon Howard THE KINGSCLIFF Ratepayers and Progress Association has lodged an objection to the construction of a Haulage Road for the transport of fill bound for the Gales Kingscliff development on Turnock Street.

Association president Peter Newton wrote to The Weekly expressing a “strong” opposition to the road.

“Which, if approved, would result in massive inconvenience and hardship for the Kingscliff and broader Tweed Shire communities,” he said.

“Gales has an approved fill plan in place, including a haul road, that minimises the impact on the community and infrastructure. Our firm belief is that this original plan should be implemented.”

Mr Newton said the approved development application involved moving sand, via conveyor belts, across Tweed Coast Road from the Gales

quarry and hauling it to the Turnock/ Elrond Street roundabout.

“The proposed haul road will see 32 truck movements an hour over a minimum period of 44 weeks, entering Tweed Coast Road from the M1, before entering the proposed haul road behind Noble Lakeside Park on route to Turnock Street,” he said.

“The impact of this change of plan on the Noble Lakeside Park residents is unfathomable.

“Add to this the fact that Tweed Coast Road, an integral connector route for Kingscliff and Tweed Coast residents, is suddenly a part of the picture and all we see is a lack of respect for residents of our community.

“The flow on effects and impact on residents and businesses as motorists avoid Tweed Coast Road during haulage operations and seek alternate routes should not be underestimated.”

The Gales residential development of Kingscliff West has been approved for

some time, including the filling of the land dissected by Turnock Street.

“That is not in dispute here,” Mr Newton said.

“And regardless of the haul route used, there will be major disruption for the community, especially around the Turnock Street area.

“We accept that, but it is very difficult to accept the imbalance between what, in effect, provides a commercial and fast-tracked outcome for Gales at enormous expense to our community – both in terms of amenity and the cost to ratepayers due to the depreciation of our road assets.

“We are calling on our elected representatives to work with us in finding some balance between what Gales want and need, so that they can go about their business without imposing such significant, negative outcomes on the health and lifestyle of the residents who already call Kingscliff home.”

The judge ruled for the defendant and the plaintiff had to pay the defendant’s costs.

Mr Stack said the case was significant, because even though negligence was found, the plaintiff still lost the case.

“The definition of dangerous recreational activity in the Act makes it more difficult for anybody who is injured due to someone’s negligence while playing a sport to claim compensation.”

Tweed Shire Council wishes to recognise the generations of the local Aboriginal people of the Bundjalung Nation who have lived in and derived their physical and spiritual needs from the forests, rivers, lakes and streams of this beautiful valley over many thousands of years as the traditional owners and custodians of these lands.

In brief ...

Feedback sought on tower use Council is asking the community to have their say on the future use of the former Volunteer Marine Rescue building, or Kingscliff Communications Tower, in Faulks Park in Kingscliff.

As part of a community consultation, members of the public have until Wednesday 6 January 2021 to make a submission setting out their preferred use for the facility.

Council is in the process of finalising the refurbishment of the tower.

Visit www.yoursaytweed.com.au/kingscliff-communicatons-tower to make a submission. Submissions close Wednesday 6 January 2021.

Stay safe, stay off the roads and stay away from flooded areas – that’s the message from Tweed Shire Council as the Tweed feels the effects of the latest weather event. Tumbulgum experienced moderate flooding on Tuesday, while minor flooding of the Tweed River was recorded at Murwillumbah and Chinderah. This photo shows the level of the Tweed River in Murwillumbah around 7am on Tuesday. For the latest weather warnings, road closures and other alerts go to the Tweed’s Emergency Dashboard emergency.tweed.nsw.gov.au

Mosquito menace warning after heavy rain The recent heavy rain has created ideal conditions for mosquito breeding. Council is calling on residents to ‘Tackle Mosquitoes Together’.

This message and program undertaken by councils of the region to reduce the impact of mosquito-borne viruses within the community can be achieved by: • keeping yards well-maintained, mowing lawns regularly and limiting areas of dense vegetation • covering all windows, doors, chimneys, vents and other entrances with insect screens that are in good condition • cleaning up your yard, removing all water-holding containers and rubbish, keeping house gutters clean and properly aligned

• emptying and refilling pet water bowls and bird baths at least weekly • ensuring all openings to water tanks and septic tanks are screened securely • placing sand or fine gravel in pot plant trays, or flushing them out weekly • keeping ornamental ponds stocked with native fish species that will feed on larvae.

As a matter of priority, Tweed Shire Council has and continues to carry out mosquito larvae control works in key breeding areas by air and through ground works.

For more information visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/nuisanceinsects

Council wants to know if the community would like to keep the parklets, art seats and planters that are peppered around Murwillumbah’s CBD. When Council installed the Brisbane Street parklet in September, it was a pilot project to see how it would be received. By the time the second parklet was installed in Queen Street, the community’s passion for these vibrant dashes of colour was clear.

The art seats and planter boxes are located on the corner of Murwillumbah and Brisbane streets, as well as on the northern and southern side of the central pedestrian crossing on Murwillumbah Street. Complementing their vibrant colours are the wonderful chalk art popping up around them.

Your feedback will inform if the parklets, art seats and planters remain permanently. Go to www.yoursaytweed.com.au/parklet to complete the survey by 4pm on Monday 18 January 2021.

The overwhelming community support has prompted Council to publish a ‘behind the scenes’ page, highlighting that our community spirit is well and truly alive.

Visit www.yoursaytweed.com.au/parklet-behind-the-scene to watch the videos of artists and installation of the parklets, view the photos and read all about it.

The project is supported by the NSW Government’s Streets as Shared Spaces initiative.

Safety improvements for Kennedy Drive, Tweed Heads Council is seeking comments from the community on its plans to improve road safety on Kennedy Drive, Tweed Heads, at the boat ramp intersection between Norman and McDonald streets.

Council has received Federal Black Spot funding to reduce the number of traffic collisions on this stretch of road. Over the past five years, 11 people have been injured, including three pedestrians, at this location.

Proposals for the Kennedy Drive black spot project include: • a dedicated right-turn lane into Norman Street from Kennedy Drive • prohibiting right turns out of Norman Street at Kennedy Drive • a new centre refuge on Kennedy Drive near the boat ramp to provide a safe crossing point for pedestrians

• improving pedestrian safety near Scales Seafood by widening the centre median and parking lane nearest to the river as well as installing fencing to funnel people to the safe crossing point • left-in and left-out only at the boat ramp.

Residents and visitors can view the concept designs for the project at www.yoursaytweed.com.au/blackspot and make comment until 4pm on Thursday 31 December 2020.

External consultants were engaged to review the current situation which included the installation of traffic cameras, on-site observations, crash reviews and traffic modelling.

Works are scheduled to take place following the school holidays in April 2021.

Thanks for service to Equal Access Advisory Committee A sense of community, achievement and pride was shared at the Tweed Heads Civic and Cultural Centre earlier this month, as members of the Equal Access Advisory Committee (EAAC) and Council representatives came together to celebrate the International Day of People with Disabilities (IDPWD).

Held on Thursday 3 December in the South Sea Islander Room, EAAC members past and present gathered for a morning tea and the presentation of Certificates of Appreciation.

The celebrations had to be scaled down from previous years’ celebrations due to COVID-19 restrictions and the pandemic also forced the postponement of the 2020 Access and Inclusion Awards.

The theme for the 2020 IDPWD was Not All Disabilities Are Visible and the key address by EAAC Deputy Chair Susi Hudson highlighted that, speaking from her own experiences as a visually impaired person.

Accepting certificates of appreciation for their service to the EAAC were Una Cowdroy for 18 years of service and Bill McKennariey for 6 years, including six terms as Chairperson of the inaugural Disability Access Committee before it changed to EAAC. Other past members of the EAAC who were recognised with a certificate were Milena Morrow for 16 years, including 3 terms as Chairperson; Prospero Aplet for 4 years, including 3 terms as Chairperson; Wendy Gilbett, for 6 years, including 1 term as Chairperson; Christine Vannucci for 7 years and Beverly Kelso for 11 years.

The current board will look forward to welcome new members in February 2021.

The achievements of Tweed people living with disabilities have been featured through the Tweed Regional Museum’s Untold Stories: Living With Ability exhibition, museum.tweed.nsw.gov.au/untold-stories Kingscliff filmmaker Tim Morrissey, who lives with Down Syndrome has also made a film about living with disabilities called Goals and Dreams, which will be published on YouTube from Wednesday, 30 December 2020.

Fill out the survey to tell Council whether you’d like to keep Murwillumbah’s parklets.

Christmas meals to go With Christmas rapidly approaching, time is one commodity many don’t have a lot of.

To bring a little Christmas cheer to the table, the Brett Street CAFE (Community Access For Everyone) at the Tweed Heads Cultural and Civic Centre is offering a special traditional ‘Meal To Go’ dinner and dessert package.

It’s a delicious roast turkey and baked leg ham combo with roast pumpkin and potatoes and a vegetable medley served with gravy, cranberry sauce and stuffing.

This tasty package is only $18, with orders being taken now until the close of business at 2pm on 21 December.

You can place an order at the café or by calling 07 5569 3131 and meals can be picked up on Christmas Eve between noon and 1pm, ready to be taken home and heated on Christmas Day. A social enterprise initiative of Tweed Shire Council, Brett Street CAFE generates income to support the delivery of Tweed Shire Council Community Services programs, to ensure local social purpose outcomes.

Over the festive period, the Brett Street CAFE will be operating on normal trading hours, 8.30am to 2pm right up until Christmas Eve, 24 December.

It will be closed from Friday 25 December 2020 until Friday 1 January 2021 and will reopen on Monday 4 January 2021. When it does reopen, the café will operate from 8.30am to 2pm Monday to Friday with a limited menu during January.

Contractor monitoring sewer flows Tweed Shire Council is monitoring sewer flows in the Banora Point and Tweed Heads catchments to help it plan for future repairs and improvements to the sewer system.

Contractors from ADS Environmental Services next week will start installing flow and level sensor monitoring equipment in a number of sewer manholes and rain gauges at a number of sites to understand how well the sewer system is performing.

During the study, which will continue through to April 2021, they will need to visit each site at least three times to insert, monitor and recalibrate equipment if necessary.

Sewage flow and rainfall data collected, together with hydraulic modelling, will be used to help plan rehabilitation and improvement works.

The contractors will be working near, and at times within, private property to access manholes and pipes. When they need to enter a private yard, they will contact the residents in advance. At no time will they need access to any house or building.

There will be no disruptions to the sewer system during the monitoring period.

For more information contact Engineer James Camauli by calling Council on 02 6670 2400.

Tweed Heads’ past comes to life on big screen History will become larger than life this week as Twin Towns features images and video from Tweed Regional Museum’s collection on its 17-metre outdoor screen over summer.

The slideshow features rare local beach scenes from the early 1900s, up until the 1960s. Summer holiday crowds are depicted camping, swimming and competing in the Hokey Pokey dance and beauty competitions.

Well-known painter H C Simpson can be seen painting local landscapes and beach scenes. The famous Jack Evans Porpoise Pool at Snapper Rocks also features, alongside scenes of fish being netted on Kirra and Greenmount beaches.

The presentation contains a special collection of stills and moving images captured by local photographer Charles Simpson in the 1940s and 1950s which were donated to the Museum by the Simpson family, and featuring a selection of clips filmed around Tweed Heads, in the 1950s and 1960s.

Museum Curator Erika Taylor said the rare footage taken by Charles is being shown outside the Museum for the first time.

“The Hokey Pokey competitions that he captured attracted up to 1000 people at a time. No trip to Greenmount in the 1950s and 1960s was complete with taking part in the famous Hokey Pokey competition, a dance based on a hand jive,” Ms Taylor said.

“At the time the phenomenon attracted national and international media attention, so became known around the world.”

The show can be seen on Twin Towns’ external screen in Wharf Street, Tweed Heads from 18 December starting at 8.10pm (NSW) and running on the hour until 1am (NSW).

One of the many beach scenes from the collection of Tweed Regional Museum which will feature on Twin Towns’ outdoor screen over summer.

Adopt don’t shop for a pet this Christmas If a dog or a cat is on your Christmas wish list, the Tweed’s dog and cat rehoming specialists, Friends of the Pound, may be able to assist you.

Council’s Director Planning & Regulation Vince Connell said Council works closely with not-for-profit animal rescue charity Friends of the Pound to ensure as many animals are rehomed in the Tweed as possible.

“When you adopt a pet, you save a loving animal by making them part of your family and open up shelter space for another animal who might need it,” Mr Connell said.

“You can adopt your chosen pet on a trial basis for 14 days to see if they fit into your home. If you already have a dog, the pound can

Development application determinations

Proposed Special Rate Variation 2021/22 At its Ordinary meeting of 10 December 2020, Council resolved to place amended Integrated Planning and Reporting documentation on exhibition in order to seek community feedback on a proposed Special Rate Variation (SRV) application to the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) to fund the long term maintenance and management of environmental protection lands within the Kings Forest development.

The proposed Special Rate Variation is aimed at raising a Special Rate in 2021/22 which will be indexed with annual rate pegging in subsequent years.

The proposed on-going Special Rate is to be levied solely on properties associated with the Kings Forest subdivision and all funds raised from the special rate levy will be allocated to the management of the environmental protection land.

The following documents which have been amended to include the proposed special rate, were adopted by Council on 10 December 2020 and are now on public exhibition: • Draft Long Term Financial Plan 2020/21 – 2029/30 (as amended) and • Draft Delivery Program 2020/2021 (as amended) Submissions and feedback will be received until 29 January 2021 for consideration by Council at a February meeting to determine whether to proceed with an application for special rate variation.

Continued from page 3 On Monday, December 14, the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) issued a gale force wind warning for the Tweed Coast, with winds averaging 34 knots up to 47 knots and extensive beach erosion.

At 9.30am Cape Byron recorded a wind gust of 104km per hour, or 56 knots.

Hazardous surf warnings were issued for Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, with residents flocking to beaches and headlands to take in the spectacle.

Surf peaked on the Tweed Coast on Monday at around six metres, with king tides lashing coastal dunes.

Fortunately, the coast escaped the serious beach erosion suffered at Byron Bay. The highest king tides caused moderate flooding at Tumbulgum and minor flooding at Chinderah and Murwillumbah on Tuesday morning. An evacuation order was issued for residents in Tumbulgum and Condong, with fears floodwaters could cut off access to the villages and surrounding areas as the river rose.

South Murwillumbah residents were told to prepare to evacuate, but fortunately the rain stopped and the river rose less than the predicted 4 metres, with the South Murwillumbah levee wall holding back the raging river.

A woman had to be rescued from a flooded causeway in Dungay in the early hours of Tuesday morning, when she attempted to drive from Murwillumbah to Tomewin.

Large trees, huge rafts of debris and a dead cow were washed with the outgoing tide to the ocean on Tuesday, posing a danger to boats and infrastructure such as jetties, after heavy rains overnight in the Tweed Valley.

The Weekly spoke to Mayor Chris Cherry on Tuesday, December 15, as the flooding

was starting to peak in Murwillumbah and Tumbulgum.

“It is very concerning for the people in Tumbulgum and South Murwillumbah,” she said.

“We know we have some washouts on roads, some damage to Bray Park Weir and Uki water treatment plant.

“Our crews have to be out there; they were ready to go out for Christmas, but now they will have to be out there working on this. It’s been a busy few days.”

BOM downgraded the estimated peak for the Tweed River on Tuesday at Tumbulgum from 2.5 to 2.3 metres at 1pm, but as the rain stopped, the river peaked at 2.2 metres at 10am.

The village has a Community Action Team for flood events and was well prepared with cars moved to the top of the bridge. There was some minor flooding to some residences.

Tweed Shire Council is now working through a growing list of urgent and semi-urgent repairs including at Mount Warning Road where a causeway has washed away.

In a statement to The Weekly, Council’s Manager of Roads and Stormwater Danny Rose said crews were scheduled to restore basic access on Mount Warning Road, which was one of several priority jobs for crews on Wednesday, December 16.

“These works will restore access to vehicles, however final repairs won’t be possible until early next year,” he said.

“If people are isolated and in need of assistance following the rain event, they should call NSW SES on 132 500.

“Residents and visitors can visit the Tweed Emergency Dashboard for the latest weather warnings and road closures at https:// emergency.tweed.nsw.gov.au/”

Hospital staff help keep community safe during COVID

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE hospital staff have helped keep the community safe during one of the toughest years on record for our health facilities.

The latest Bureau of Health Information quarterly report for Tweed hospitals shows a small dip in patient numbers overall, and staff have managed to maintain a fast turnaround for patients with improvements in the emergency department (ED) and elective surgery wait times.

Murwillumbah District Hospital had a 14.9 per cent decrease in ED presentations (down by 705), with 4,012 people attending the ED between July and September.

Of these, 90.1 per cent started treatment on time, a 2.7 percentage point improvement.

A total of 438 elective surgeries were performed, down two per cent, or nine, on last year. One hundred percent of urgent, and 94.6 percent of semi-urgent elective surgeries were performed on time.

The Tweed Hospital had 11,352 ED attendances over the quarter, a drop of 16.8 per cent, or 2,298 presentations.

M e d i a n t i m e t o t re at m e n t remained stable or improved across all triage categories, with 84.1 per cent of patients starting treatment on time, a seven-percentage point improvement.

There were 1,084 elective surgeries performed, up 7.1 per cent, or 72, on last year, with 82.6 per cent of all surgeries performed on time.

Northern NSW Local Health District (NNSWLHD) chief executive Wayne Jones said while

there were fewer presentations through the EDs, health staff responded promptly and effectively throughout the crisis, helping to keep the community safe.

“Every time a new public health order is issued, or new cases are discovered, our health staff are at the front line implementing measures to make sure our health facilities remain COVID-free, and our communities are informed and prepared,” Mr Jones said. “ Fro m s c r e e n i n g v i s i t o r s, to operating COVID-clinics, supporting patients, and advising the community, our incredible health staff are carrying us through this difficult season, and continuing to provide compassionate and expert care among the many other shifting situations we’ve encountered this year.”

Meanwhile, NNSWLHD recently completed a survey of maternity ward patients, with 84 per cent of respondents rating their overall antenatal care as ‘very good’ at The Tweed Hospital, while 91 percent said they ‘always’ had trust and confidence in the midwives or doctors taking care of them.

“Results from Murwillumbah were not reported at the hospital level due the volume of responses, but are added into the LHD and NSW total results,” a spokesperson for NNSWLHD said.

Maternity care hospitals in Northern NSW are some of the best in NSW to give birth, according to the survey which was taken from almost 4,500 women across the state who gave birth in 2019.

POLICE BEAT

Man banned from driving nabbed

By Jonathon Howard A 36-YEAR-OLD Coolangatta man, who is banned from driving until 2052, was nabbed by Tweed Police while riding a motorbike at Tweed Heads on Thursday, December 10.

Police said they were patrolling Ducat Street at about 6pm when they noticed a motorcycle allegedly being ridden dangerously.

They stopped and spoke to the rider, where checks revealed he was disqualified from holding a licence until August 2052.

Police allege the man was also in possession of methamphetamine, and the number plates on the

motorcycle did not match the registration.

“The 36-year-old man from Coolangatta was arrested and taken to Tweed Heads Police Station where he was charged with drive recklessly, furiously or speed, manner dangerous, drive while disqualified, having goods in custody suspected of being stolen and possessing a prohibited drug,” police said.

The man was refused bail and fronted Tweed Heads Local Court on Friday, December 11, where he was again refused bail and will reappear in the same court on January 28, 2021.

Hospital visitor numbers increase

By Jonathon Howard VISITOR RESTRICTIONS have now been eased at The Tweed Hospital and Murwillumbah District Hospital.

A maximum of two visitors, twice a day, for two hours, are now allowed. This means four individuals could visit across the two sessions.

Visitor hours will remain restricted to between 1pm and 6pm daily.

Health screening is still in place

at all NNSWLHD facilities, and visitors are still required to wear masks while inside a hospital or community health centre, as part of the measures to reduce any risk of transmission and keep patients safe.

Anyone entering a facility will have their temperature checked and be asked a series of questions to determine they are well and have not visited any COVID hotspots in the past 14 days.

Gordon pleads not guilty to drug supply Alert as fake bank notes hit Tweed Coast

By Jo Kennett FORMER NRL star Michael Gordon has pleaded not guilty to supplying drugs, at Tweed Heads Local Court on Monday, December 14.

Gordon did not appear in court but instructed his lawyer to enter guilty pleas to two charges of possessing cocaine, but will fight the allegation he had anything to do with supplying cocaine or being part of a drug syndicate.

Gordon was one of seven people arrested last month that police allege were part of a cross-border drug syndicate.

However, Gordon’s lawyer Michael McMillan told reporters he did not think the former Titans player had “any involvement in a syndicate”.

“I think at its highest, the police can demonstrate that he was someone on the periphery of, unwittingly on the periphery of, some sort of a drug group,” he said.

He said Gordon wanted to know why prosecutors had charged him with supply,

saying his client was “a man of character” who had admitted to his wrongdoing and was seeking rehabilitation for the problem that had led to his arrest.

Gordon played more than 250 games of first grade rugby league for Penrith, Cronulla, Parramatta, the Sydney Roosters and the Gold Coast Titans.

He also played in one State of Origin game.

After retiring, he was an assistant coach at the Titans, but was dropped after his arrest.

His lawyer said Gordon wanted to work towards a return to rugby league.

“That’s always been his love and as we all know; that’s where he really should be and I think the community and he will be very indebted to the courts if he’s allowed to go back there,” McMillan told the court.

Many local residents closed ranks in support of Gordon, who grew up in Bogangar and is widely liked and respected for his support of local rugby league and charities.

He will appear in Tweed Heads Local Court again on Monday, February 15.

By Jo Kennett RESIDENTS ARE being warned to be on the lookout for fake bank notes, after several incidences of people being scammed in the Tweed Shire.

The counterfeit notes have been passed at several locations including the Pottsville markets, Pottsville Tavern, Woolworths Kingscliff and a Kingscliff restaurant.

On Wednesday, December 9, fake notes were used to pay for items at Kingscliff Woolworths, with staff on alert and checking customer bank notes afterwards.

A Kingscliff restaurant was paid for a meal with a fake $50 before the Pottsville markets were targeted on Sunday, December 6.

It’s believed around $1,000 in fake $50 notes were used to pay for items at a range of stalls by a woman wearing a pink turban who was accompanied by a very large man.

A female stallholder recognised the $50 she was handed as counterfeit, saying it felt different to a normal note.

She spoke to the woman, who took off, eventually dropping her shopping and disappearing with the man.

The stallholder immediately reported the matter to market management who contacted Tweed Police.

Pottsville Beach Neighbourhood Centre (PBNC) runs the markets and Manager Angela Maxwell said that PBNC market coordinators were notified by a very observant stallholder that a couple of people were spending what appeared to be counterfeit $50 notes.

“An alert went out to all stallholders and photographs, video footage and physical evidence were given to the police,” Ms Maxwell said.

Police are investigating the matter, but were unable to be contacted for further information.

Anyone with information about the counterfeit money is urged to contact Crime Stoppers: 1800 333 000 or https://nsw.crimestoppers.com.au

Tweed Police continue COVID-19 compliance

Michael Gordon being led by police from his home in late November by Tweed Police. Gordon has pleaded not guilty to a drug supply charge.

By Jo Kennett POLICE WERE out in force in an operation targeting COVID and licensing compliance, with 16 licensing breaches issued and 12 COVID-19 related warnings in the Northern Region, which includes the Tweed Police District.

On Friday, December 11, and Saturday, December 12, officers across regional NSW conducted inspections as part of Operation Pariac to ensure venues and patrons were aware of their responsibilities to maintain a COVID-safe environment as restrictions

continue to ease.

In 2020, the operation was broadened to include compliance around current Public Health Orders.

There were 14 arrests, 13 charges laid, 440 businesses inspected and 202 random breath tests conducted in the Northern Region, with 11 people caught drink driving.

Operation Pariac Commander, Assistant Commissioner Max Mitchell, said he is pleased that the majority of venues understand and are complying with all the required COVID procedures and Public Health Orders.

By Jo Kennett THE POOR mobile phone service that has plagued Pottsville could soon be a thing of the past, with Optus saying they plan to construct a new site to cover the town.

The Weekly contacted Optus about residents’ ongoing concerns that their coverage was extremely limited and was told Optus has plans to construct a new site in Pottsville and are currently carrying out preliminary assessments.

However, it’s possible that any new tower Optus builds will use 5G technology.

Last November, Optus boss Allen Lew unveiled a multibillion-dollar 5G rollout plan, in a strategy to take on Telstra’s dominance, saying that 5G was the way of the future, although Lew has since left the company.

Pottsville is on the National Mobile Black Spot Database, but Telstra said their map shows the town has 100 per cent 4G coverage, although residents have long reported having limited or no coverage at all in some parts of the town.

Koala Beach resident Lilas Monniot-Kerr recently launched a petition to have the problem addressed.

The Weekly previously reported Ms Monniot-Kerr was hoping to get a tower built at Koala Beach, however that was incorrect.

Ms Monniot-Kerr said she wanted to see better mobile phone coverage for the whole of Pottsville and had no idea where a tower would need to be built to achieve that.

“Residents don’t want a tower in the middle of Koala Beach and I don’t think they would be keen on a tower without consultation.

“Some people are also concerned a tower might impact local wildlife.

“Geoff Provest said to bring the petition to him and he would contact some people about it. He said he would help us out.”

The current mobile phone tower most Pottsville residents rely on is located at

Cudgera Creek, with hills blocking a signal to those on the east side of Pottsville.

Optus said they take the terrain into consideration when planning to build a tower “to ensure our network best caters to the demand in the particular location.”

In response to questions on the black spot issue, Regional General Manager for Telstra Northern NSW, Mike Marom, told The Weekly that “Telstra generally has good 3G and 4G mobile coverage in the Pottsville area, but we know that sometimes coverage can be impacted by a range of factors including terrain, tree cover or built infrastructure.”

“We are always looking at ways to improve our mobile network performance but currently have no plans for an additional tower in the Pottsville or Koala Beach areas,” he said.

“For any residents in that area currently experiencing poor service, they could consider a Telstra mobile booster or external antenna to improve coverage at their property.

“To find out more people can contact Telstra or visit our website.

“Alternatively, if people have a home WiFi service, we encourage them to consider using WiFi calling.

“It’s a free setting on most popular mobile phones that allows people to make and receive mobile calls for free on their phone if they are in range and logged into a working WiFi signal.”

Ms Monniot-Kerr said boosters weren’t a practical solution because they can cost around $1,000 for each home.

T h e We e k l y contacted Optus about the type of technology it would use on a tower, but did not receive a response in time for print deadline.

Hugh Small receives OAM

By Jonathon Howard LOCAL LEGEND Hugh Small, 78, was presented with his Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) by the Cudgen Headland Surf Life Saving Club on Saturday, December 12, at the Riverview Hotel.

The title, which is listed on the Queen’s Birthday Honours List, is amongst Australia’s highest recognition for outstanding achievement and service to the Crown.

Hugh has blazed an extraordinary trail during the past six decades, from the Murwillumbah High School sprint team, to winning the 1958 Sydney State Combined High 220 yards and leading a surf lifesaving career for over 40 years.

Hugh’s wife Rae has helped compile just some of his accomplishments in sports, coaching, surf lifesaving and being a great bloke, spanning back to 1965.

Rae said she was still inspired by her husband every day and was delighted to see him presented with the award.

“He’s still got a sharp mind, but the speech is gone,” she said.

“Hugh has had an extraordinary life and contributed so much; it was great to see it recognised with this title.”

Hugh received the OAM medal from the President of Cudgen Headland Surf Life Saving Club, Grant Rogers.

“The Investiture Ceremony was held at Government House Sydney on December 1. Due to Hugh’s poor health, he was unable to attend the ceremony in Sydney,” Rae said.

“It was decided to incorporate presenting the medal to Hugh at the meeting which was attended by many of his Cudgen Headland lifesaving mates. Hugh felt honoured to receive the medal.”

Rae said Hugh has lived in the Tweed Shire all of his life and was born at Sunnyside Hospital in Murwillumbah.

He grew up on the family farm on Bogangar Road, Cudgen, and was quickly recognised for his sprinting abilities.

“After finishing high school, Hugh joined the Eastern Suburbs Sydney Athletics Club to further his aims in athletics, but unfortunately very soon after, throat cancer brought these aspirations to an end,” Rae said.

“Hugh has struggled with the aftereffects of the radiation ever since, but he has never let it get in the way of leading a productive life.”

Hugh and Rae were married in 1972, and they have two sons who have also gone on to contribute to surf lifesaving and their communities.

Sweet Talk with Robert Hawken

Moderate flood sweeps over farmland Our river system also needs to work effectively for floodwater to drain away and effective dredging of the river entrance has proved beneficial. There are several other areas in the lower reaches of the Tweed River that would benefit from a moderate form of dredging to remove the ever-growing sand bars and mud banks.

This river system needs to be restored to a more natural pre-European state as both agriculture and urban areas on the floodplain become increasingly exposed to extreme weather conditions from the effects of climate change.

The Tweed Canegrowers Executive wish to thank all members and harvest crews, truck drivers, mill staff and all personnel associated with our industry, including the Rural Fire Service and Tweed Shire Council for their excellent efforts throughout the harvest season in what has been a very difficult year for all.

We wish everyone a very happy and safe Christmas and a better COVID free new year.

Rob Hawken.

There are renewed concerns that floodwaters could trigger more fish kills across the Tweed Shire

Concerns fish kills could occur from flood

By Jonathon Howard INFLOWS OF oxygen-depleted floodwaters risk causing fish kills at Cudgen, Cudgera and Mooball creeks, according to Tweed Shire Council’s Waterways Program Leader Tom Alletson, who has released the latest water report card for the Tweed.

Mr Alletson said the report was a summarised snapshot of water quality throughout the shire over the past 12 months.

“The report card is an engagement tool,” he said.

“We want people to take an interest in the health of our creeks and rivers, and understand the challenges we all face in maintaining their environmental and recreational values.”

In most of the Tweed’s rivers and creeks, 2020 water quality scores were similar to those of 2019, however, a significant issue experienced in 2020 were fish kills that occurred in coastal creeks following flooding in February.

“Inflows of oxygen-depleted floodwaters caused serious fish kills in Cudgen, Cudgera and Mooball creeks,” Mr Alletson said.

Another area that the report card highlights for poor water quality are the creeks that flow into the Cobaki and Terranora broadwaters, which have recorded a D for the third consecutive year.

With an aim of lifting this score, Council is seeking expressions of interest from rural landowners who wish to improve the health of Duroby, Bilambil, Piggabeen and Cobaki creeks.

Funding is available through Council’s River Health Grants program to address common problems including bank erosion, a lack of native vegetation and cattle impacts.

Eligible grant activities include riverbank fencing, stock drinking troughs, revegetation, weed control and erosion stabilisation.

“In every catchment, we need people living upstream to be conscious of water quality downstream, and support changes that will protect the Tweed’s internationally significant environment into the future,” Mr Alletson said.

THE HARVEST for Condong Mill concluded on Tuesday, December 1. This year’s crop of 519,000 tonnes was only marginally smaller than last year’s harvest of 521,000 tonnes.

Fine weather conditions continued for the duration of the cane season throughout November and farmers were looking forward to a few good storms to bring much-needed moisture to the young plant cane and ratoons, as well as the standover cane, that will be harvested next year as two-year-old cane.

The torrential rain of last weekend sent us from one extreme to the other, as river levels rose and cane fields become inundated.

Floods in December, January and February can cause serious damage to the young cane crop, especially if it is submerged in water for extended periods.

Silt can enter the growing point of the cane and kill the plant. Also, in hot weather, as the water recedes, the shallow water can become very hot and scald the cane plant.

This is when our drainage systems are put to the test and so it is critical that they are maintained properly.

Checking the Pulse in the 2484 It Takes a Town

85203

with Carmen Stewart

WHAT A year. It is heartening to know that as a community we are in recovery and with borders down, many children and families will be able to spend longawaited time with their loved ones.

However, recovery is a process and we still have a way to go in supporting the 2484 in the spirit of trust, generosity and responsiveness that guides us.

Despite the challenges this year, It Takes a Town (ITAT) continued many programs and prepared for future initiatives. The 2484 Pulse Check gave us much to think about and raised many areas about which the community feels strongly. These form the basis of our planning for 2021 to help our community thrive. If you felt your voice wasn’t heard in the results of the survey, we encourage anyone to please take part in the next poll. It is a quick, easy process and we would love to hear as many voices as possible from our rich and diverse community. Or indeed to contact us at any time.

The ChangeFest Reset provided much food for thought and an opportunity to organise working groups around identified community priorities. Workshops in various areas of community connection, food security, participatory democracy and other areas have been formed, and begun meetings and consultations to move forward into the new year with exciting projects.

Through the year, ITAT programs supported 15 families and seven elders with specific resources, community connections, and access to skills and resources of ITAT locals. Ten local families and individuals supported five children to attend our local pre-schools – a vital resource for those precious first 1,000 days. Skillshare sessions throughout the year provided weekly workshops for residents to gather and share valuable expertise.

We look forward to refining our programs and adding new initiatives as the ITAT movement continues to grow and incorporate so many more generous, energetic, civicminded folk dedicated to contributing to a thriving 2484.

As part of Murwillumbah’s Twilight Shopping event, ITAT will host the ‘Christmas Switch’ on Friday, December 18. The swap-meet style event is a chance to bring along new or ‘as new’ gifts to exchange for Switch currency, and then to purchase other items from the range of contributed goods on offer, and will be held at the Small Works gallery on Commercial Road (next to Each To Own). It’s a chance to on-gift and contribute to sustainable Christmas gift giving for all. More information is available on our Facebook page.

On that note, from all the ITAT family, we wish for you, our friends and readers, partners and facilitators, contributors and recipients, team members, donors and supporters, the very best of holiday seasons.

May this be a reset for you and your loved ones, and may 2021 hold new joys and blessings for you all. Carmen

Council seeks advice over high school rezoning at Pottsville Dam raising consultation soon

By Jo Kennett TWEED SHIRE Council has decided to seek legal advice on whether to apply for a review of a decision by the state government to refuse a rezoning of land at the site of a proposed high school in Pottsville, at a Planning Committee meeting on Thursday, December 3.

The state government ruled in March this year that a high school could be built at the Seabreeze Estate site under the current R2 residential zoning.

Council had sought to have the zoning changed to SP2 Infrastructure - School in line with the intended use of the site for a high school, saying the R2 zoning artificially inflated the valuation of the land, making it less attractive for educational providers.

Mayor Chris Cherry said Council had resolved to request legal advice “to assess their view on our prospects of success if we apply for a review of that decision.”

“We would like a review of that to try to remove the overvaluation of the land that is occurring to make it accessible as a school site “Private schools have expressed interest, but if they have to pay the cost of 72 homes, it is unrealistic.

“We are getting a further report to Council once we get that legal advice.”

It was recommended “that Council seeks legal advice to advise on the likelihood of success of a Gateway review, as well as whether there is an alternative legal approach or pathway Council could pursue in order to address the potential land value and limit potential for further development applications and appeals.”

Last year, Council was given five years by the state government to find a provider to build a high school on

Mayor Chris Cherry with supporters of a Pottsville High School at the Seabreeze Estate

the site, after which it would revert to residential zoning.

At the time, the NSW Department of Planning agreed that the site should be set aside for a high school and that the zoning should be changed.

Councillors voted unanimously to apply to have the zoning changed, but that proposal was rejected.

Matthew France helped to collect 3,000 signatures in a petition to have the school built and says he is not surprised.

“What the state government is doing is in line with their policy of closing schools and not opening new schools,” he told The Weekly.

“It doesn’t make any sense, but as soon as I saw the mega-school was coming to Murwillumbah, you could see this government was never going to entertain the idea of new schools and school infrastructure.

“I believe it is a deliberate strategy to reduce the number of schools; it saves you having to supply land and ongoing maintenance.”

Mr France said he has always believed new high schools in the Tweed Shire were built in the wrong locations.

“I saw the growth in the area, especially on the coast, and believe they have put

the high schools in the wrong locations,” he said.

“A perfect example is Wollumbin High School and Murwillumbah High School when the population growth was on the coast.

“They did that with Banora Point High School too.

“They chose Banora and Wollumbin over coastal areas where the growth is.

“I think when they build the megaschool, residents in between will be more likely to send their children to the coast.”

In 2017, the NSW Land and Environment Court dismissed an appeal by the developer who was seeking approval for a 65-lot residential subdivision at the Seabreeze Estate which has long been earmarked for a future school site.

Newland Developers Pty Ltd lodged a development application with Council in 2015 seeking to subdivide the land.

Council refused the application and the developers subsequently appealed the decision.

The NSW Land and Environment Court found that Council’s decision to maintain the site for a future school was appropriate.

By Jonathon Howard FORMAL COMMUNITY consultation for the raising of the Clarrie Hall Dam is set to get underway in March 2021, according to Tweed Shire Council, as the dam wall raising was back on the agenda during Council’s final meeting for 2020, on Thursday, December 10.

Council is proposing to raise the wall of the dam by 8.5 metres to double the dam's footprint and treble its capacity from 16,000 megalitres to 42,300 megalitres.

“This will provide a secure water supply for the Tweed until at least 2046, to meet the needs of Tweed residents into the future,” Council’s report reads.

“Community consultation is a critical task required to finalise the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), which will go on public exhibition for comment in March 2021.

“The community consultation will be undertaken by consultant Eco Logical Australia Pty Ltd and its subconsultant The Comms Team.”

Council said the consultation will focus on explaining the EIS document, to help the community understand the impacts of the proposed project, so they can make informed submissions in support or against the proposal, or on aspects that should be considered in any approval of the project.

“The EIS document will detail the impacts of the project on the environment (biodiversity, water, bushfire, soils and geology), during construction (noise and vibration, traffic and air quality) and on community and cultural values (historic and Aboriginal cultural heritage and social amenity),” Council said.

“Two information sessions will be held in the main population centres of Murwillumbah and Tweed Heads and a third in Uki. Interested community members who cannot attend an information session will be invited to phone the consultants to discuss any aspects of the EIS of concern to them.

“A short survey designed to gauge general support or opposition to the project will be published on Your Say Tweed in about February 2021 for anyone to register and complete.”

Council will also be required to acquire a small portion of Mount Jerusalem National Park, which will be inundated or impacted with the raising of the dam wall.

Council will also be required to provide offsets for the biodiversity lost in the areas to be inundated.

Thank you and good night: Vale Mungo MacCallum

By Jo Kennett THE NORTH Coast has lost one of the greatest political journalists the country has ever seen with the death of Mungo MacCallum on Wednesday, December 9.

Mungo was well known for his humour, intelligence and wit, which he employed to full advantage in his incisive and often scathing commentary on Australian politics, working for years as a political correspondent for The Australian, the Sydney Morning Herald and the ABC. After he left Canberra, Mungo’s weekly column ran in the Tweed Shire Echo from 2008 to 2012, the Byron Shire Echo and Independent Australia.

He suffered ill health in recent years including throat and prostate cancer.

Member for Richmond Justine Elliot said since Mungo’s passing, there had been “both an outpouring of sadness and fond memories of the great man and his work.”

“On the NSW North Coast, so many in our community were touched by his words of wisdom, his political insights and his wit,” Ms Elliot said.

“Mungo brilliantly chronicled so many events in all our lives and captured the essence of every major political happening over the past decades.

“He was also very kind and generous with his time.

“Mungo may have been a journalistic icon with a stellar

national career, but when he moved to the North Coast – he was our icon – local writer and loved by many.

“We, especially those of us in the Labor Party, will always be thankful to Mungo for his strong commitment to social justice and fighting for a better, fairer world for everyone.

“Our hearts go out to Jenny and his family at this saddest time.

“Dear Mungo – you will be dearly missed by so many of us on the North Coast. Thank you for your support and friendship over many years.”

He was fourth in a line of Mungo MacCallums of Glaswegian descent, and the great-greatgrandson of explorer and politician William Charles Wentworth.

His uncle was William Wentworth, an MP in the Gorton Liberal government and his father was a journalist and broadcaster.

Despite his privileged upbringing, Mungo was a Labor Party man and often scathing in his assessment of conservative governments, though he didn’t hesitate to call out Labor politicians.

Gough Whitlam described Mungo as “the tall, bearded descendant of lunatic aristocrats”.

Kerry O’Brien told the ABC that Mungo “has given so much to Australia and to humanity.”

“He certainly didn’t hold back on what he saw as the sins of life and the tragedies of life, but he was almost always eternally cheerful,” O’Brien said.

“Mungo was one of a kind and he blazed a trail through Australia’s

ranks of political journalists across 55 years with his mix of shrewd analysis and satire that was unique.

“He took great delight in calling out pomposity, bombast and hypocrisy for what it was and left pretenders with nowhere to hide.”

“For all this he was also one of the most compassionate people I’ve ever met.”

Mungo was known for his deep knowledge of Australian political history, loathing of political corruption and his often hilarious attacks on those in power, such as calling Sir Robert Menzies “a pompous old fart.”

Mungo was tall but drove a tiny German car and O’Brien described him leaving Australia by boat after he finished university, where he was friends with Germaine Greer and Clive James.

Mungo took a Morris Minor on the boat and drove through India to Turkey, spent a year on the Greek island of Hydra with a renowned artistic community including Australian writers George Johnston and Charmian Clift and a young Leonard Cohen.

Mungo and partner Sue had a child on the island, went on to London, then returned to Australia in 1965 where he got a job at Rupert Murdoch’s The Australian.

O’Brien said every week Murdoch complained about Mungo’s column and every week his editor defended it.

In 1969, Mungo was sent by The Australian to report on Parliament House.

“If King’s Hall was the building’s heart, the chambers its lungs, and the corridors and lobbies its veins and arteries, then the nonmembers bar is its liver,” he said.

Bogangar’s Helen Soul worked behind the bar at the time.

“I knew him in the 70s when I was a bar attendant at Parliament House in the bar where the media gathered to drink and tell stories,” Helen told The Weekly.

“I worked there just after the fall of Gough Whitlam and (Malcolm) Fraser gave strict instructions that pollies were not allowed in there, but of course rebellion was rife then.

“The general public has no idea whatsoever at the antics of Parliament House, especially in those days, and it was a great job.

“Journalists from that era were able to voice their own opinions, not toe the line like now.

“Mungo was a very funny man, always had a smile on his face and was very intelligent.

“He definitely was a brilliant man and his opinion will be greatly missed and he always had one; thanks to Mungo, RIP.” In 1988, seeing political life in Canberra changing in a way he didn’t like, Mungo moved to Ocean Shores and became a fixture in the public bar of the Brunswick Hotel with his two dogs.

When dogs were banned, Mungo rebelled and set up at the back bar of the Billinudgel Hotel where he wrote three books.

Mungo, a smoker for many years, had not been able to speak since having throat surgery, but kept

up his columns and his weekly crossword in the Byron Shire Echo.

A week before he died, Mungo informed the world of his retirement in a column titled ‘That’s all she wrote’.

“I am rapidly winding down,” Mungo wrote.

“I am sorry to cut and run – it has sometimes been a hairy career, but I hope a productive one and always fun.

“My gratitude for all your participation.

“So a seasonal Hallmark message: “Christmas is coming and Australia is flat.

‘Kindly tell us ScoMo where the bloody hell we’re at.

“And when we’re certain that you know that you haven’t got a clue.

“Then join in our Yuletide chorus as we sing: **** YOU!” “Thank you and good night.

Cheers, Mungo.”

Mungo passed away at home at Ocean Shores aged 78.

Spreading some Christmas cheer: Messages from our local politicians CHRISTMAS IS a special time of year when families, friends, neighbours, and communities come together to celebrate the festive season.

This year Christmas is even more special as 2020 has been a tough year for so many in our community.

Throughout these challenges we’ve seen such generosity from locals who’ve reached out to help each other and that’s what makes the North Coast such a great place to live.

It’s a privilege and an honour to serve the people of Richmond in our Federal Parliament and I’m so proud of how much we’ve achieved by working together.

My husband Craig, our children Alexandra and Joe, and I all wish you and your family a wonderful Christmas and a happy and exciting New Year.

Federal Member for Richmond Justine Elliot I WISH you all the best for Christmas and an even better and brighter New Year.

All of us have been tested during this time of COVID. A time that was preceded by with the catastrophic 2017 floods, the devastating drought covering most of the state and felt locally, the unprecedented horrific bushfires and then came COVID. Despite all of this, the people of Murwillumbah and surrounding villages have stood up to these hits remarkably well.

Resilience is the word most bandied about, but it best describes how the community has responded to these cascading challenges.

This is not to understate the suffering and impacts, but said to highlight the strength and the care shown by the community to families, neighbours and people in need.

This is reflected in the responses of community leaders and in Parliament as well, who pulled together as one.

Warmest regards, State Member for Lismore Janelle Saffin

IT SEEMS fitting, after the year that we have had, that it would end in a flood.

My heart goes out to all those impacted right before Christmas, and at Council we will do all we can to help things return to normal as soon as possible – as normal as 2020 will allow.

This year has been a very testing time for our community.

From the drought and bushfires at the start of the year straight into a flood in February was a chaotic beginning.

The uncertainties of COVID and border closures dominated most of the year, bringing hardship for many, opportunities for some, but change for everyone. It is so wonderful to see business start to pick up, people start to get out and about again and the optimism that is out there in our community for the recovery ahead.

Christmas is a time to celebrate family, a time to celebrate giving – taking time to really enjoy the people around us. So whatever form your family takes, be they relatives, friends, work mates – take a moment to celebrate that we have each other.

Through all that this year has thrown at us, we have seen how much we need each other – the COVID restrictions taught us

that. So let’s prioritise each other over the holiday period and return in the New Year recharged and ready for 2021. I wish you all the best for Christmas and look forward to the New Year. Bring on 2021!

Mayor of Tweed Shire Chris Cherry

2020 HAS been a year like no other, so much so that the term “unprecedented” describes almost everything experienced!

Fires, floods, COVID-19 restrictions, border closures and as I write, further flooding, make it a year most of us would choose to forget, but there have been some blessings for which we can be thankful.

Firstly, the drought conditions across much of Australia eased with dams in NSW filling, rivers flowing and farmers restocking and harvesting record crops in many areas. We can also be thankful the borders are finally open and we can again travel freely for any reason.

I am also pleased to report that the new hospital development is on track, upgrades to Kingscliff and South Tweed Heads schools are progressing, and the rollout of the Regional Seniors Transport Card in 2020 has been a success.

One positive that has come out of the COVID-19 experience is a new-found appreciation of things we previously took for granted, and I am not simply referring to the availability of toilet paper; but the freedom to see friends and family, to have coffee in a café, to attend church, school and work with others.

This Christmas, rather than dwell on the horrors of the past year, I would simply wish you happiness in the coming year and a renewed appreciation of life in this beautiful area.

Rural Alliance demands retraction Rural Land Strategy back in the headlines

By Jonathon Howard with TRSA TWEED RURAL Sustainability Alliance (TRSA) has this week issued a statement calling on Tweed Shire Councillor Katie Milne and Tweed Shire Council (TSC) to “substantiate claims� there would be a 10 per cent rate increase if all landholders were allowed to build a secondary detached home on all lot sizes.

TRSA said the statement by Cr Milne should be “proven or retracted as misleading� as the Alliance steps up calls for Council to fall in line with neighbouring councils. TRSA is a volunteer organisation representing Tweed Shire rural landholders and who have been advocating for several years for the rights of landholders to build detached dual occupancy dwellings, commonly referred to as secondary dwellings, on all lot sizes.

TRSA said in a statement to The Weekly that the Council’s Rural Land Strategy, governing detached dual occupancy (DDO), is “out of step with all surrounding shires, some of which approved this rural housing option back in 2013�. “TRSA has obtained documents that demonstrate clearly the TSC’s recent publicly released information relating to the effect of DDOs on the shire’s rates is completely incorrect and misleading and they are now calling for a correction and retraction given the strong supporting documented evidence that has now confirmed the view of TRSA,� the organisation said. “This rates fear campaign (headed by Councillor Milne and backed by the General Manager) claiming rates will rise as a result of DDOs is the latest in a long list of illfounded and misguided reasons put forward

by Council without any documentation to back up their claim.�

TRSA said they requested information relating to the take-up of DDOs from the five surrounding shires and “the subsequent rates effect and their written replies

confirmed the suspicion of TRSA that the impact has been nil�. “Two council officers going so far as to say that they could not understand TSC rationale in using such an argument,� TRSA said in their statement. “On the basis of the written proof from surrounding shires, TRSA is now calling for a public retraction of the far-fetched claims made in the rates increase scare campaign.�

TRSA has asked that the following seven points be printed, which rural landholders, as well as many urban residents agree, DDOs will: 1. Provide some much-needed quick relief to the shire’s extreme housing stress.

2. Provide funds and manpower landholders need to continue to maintain the shire’s scenic amenity.

3. Allow for family succession and farmers to age in place on their farms.

4. Help limit conventional urban sprawl and traffic congestion as DDO housing is subtly integrated and dispersed throughout rural areas.

5. Provide a critical mass of people needed for our rural villages, their schools and clubs to grow.

6. Improve water quality in our waterways

by Council being able to bring illegal dwellings and septic systems into line with current regulations.

7. Protect the primary production potential of the land which was shown as one of the major reasons for Lismore Council allowing DDOs. “It is the requirement of council staff and councillors that they make decisions that are for the good of the shire and not based on their personal wants or desires,� TRSA said. “TRSA is laying down the challenge to TSC to either allow rural landholders to have the ability to build a second house on their properties or for the sake of transparency to list publicly in The Weekly the reasons why they refuse. In this way TRSA will be able to respond publicly to these excuses.�

By Jonathon Howard THE RURAL Land Strategy (RLS) is making headlines again this week, with Tweed Shire Councillors Warren Polglase and Cr Pryce Allsop making a bid to have the long-debated strategy amended to allow detached dwellings on all rural lot sizes.

The motion also proposed an independent panel reviews the need for a 40-hectare minimum lot size on RU1 and RU2 zones that are “not suitable for agriculture� to allow lifestyle owners to purchase and maintain smaller rural parcels as well as removing restrictions which prevent building on sloping land that is in excess of 12 degrees.

But what councillors ended up voting for, following an amendment by Cr James Owen and Mayor Chris Cherry, was that Council invest in a growth management and housing strategy that will see the strategy going back to the drawing board somewhat. “A growth management and housing strategy be prepared which includes consideration of minimum lot sizes in rural Tweed; land identified as not being suitable for agricultural purposes (including covered) and the place of dual occupancy (detached) in rural Tweed,� the alternative motion reads.

Councillors voted four votes to three in favour of the amendment.

A second motion by Cr Polglase and Cr Allsop proposed that Council commence a process to amend the Tweed Local Environment Plan to permit, with consent, detached dual occupancy as a use on properties in the RU1 and RU2 zones regardless of lot sizes.

But again, councillors voted four votes to three in favour of the original amendment, which outlines the development of a Rural Land Strategy implementation plan that be presented to Council.

“Which identifies priority actions and estimated timeframes for completion, including prioritisation of actions 80, 81, 82, and 83, which relate to Dual Occupancy (detached) and Secondary Dwellings, and identifies available resourcing to implement priority actions within the Strategic Planning and Urban Design Unit Work Program,� the motion reads.

Speaking with Mayor Cherry prior to the meeting, she said the whole strategy has created a lot of confusion and misinformation out there. “When Council approved the Rural Land Strategy, we took a compromise position, allowing secondary dwellings on lots above 10ha, we also made rural workers dwellings easier to get so that farmers can get some help on the land and we made tourist cabins easier to do also, in case farmers wanted to have agricultural tourism businesses instead,� she said. “The good news is for people with lots 10ha and above, these options all apply to them, so they will be able to apply for a secondary dwelling on their property, or a rural workers dwelling, or tourist cabins if they want to go that way so hopefully this has helped them. “For larger properties, 40ha and above, all of these options apply or they will also be able to do detached dual occupancies, something they have never been able to do before. “For the smaller lot owners, if they are wanting cabins to Airbnb for a secondary income, the option to do tourist cabins is available and the RLS has an action to make this easier.

Over 50s rejoice their gym reopening

By Jonathon Howard SEVERAL TWEED Shire over 50s are rejoicing at being able to return to their favourite local gym, including gyms tailored to our older residents such as Club Active.

Club Active is a health and fitness centre that was first established at Tweed Heads South, where it has proven a winner with locals.

The company was founded by managing director Jonathan Freeman, who said he found older residents were seeking out specialised fitness centres over more mainstream models.

“Because traditional gyms can be intimidating for people who are unfamiliar with the environment,” he said.

The model had taken off until coronavirus struck and forced the business into lockdown for more than half of 2020.

Mr Freeman said the team came up with innovative ways to remain connected with their clients by using online platforms to keep them active.

One of the residents was Sue Vincent, who said she started doing some weights and walking her dog every morning during lockdown.

“I needed more and I just happened to be talking to another member and she suggested I join the Club Active Facebook page to start doing some Pilates and Move N Tone classes online with Yvonne,” she said.

“Now I am back in the gym at Club Active again, enjoying the workouts, and classes, and everyone’s company.”

It was after two years of keeping fit at Club Active that Narelle and Bill Tyrrell were saddened when the club closed because of COVID-19.

“During the shutdown, we tried to maintain our fitness with walking and doing daily exercise sessions,” the couple said.

“We did manage to maintain some sort of fitness and were absolutely delighted when Club Active reopened.

“It has been the best thing we have done for ourselves, having better health and fitness and making lots of friends and just enjoying ourselves.”

Tweed Heads local Gay Land said she wanted to keep active during the lockdown, so she took up walking again.

Narelle Tyrrell

“I’ve always being a walker, my favourite is from Greenmount to Point Danger, otherwise around our local area,” she said.

“The Club Active app on my phone kept me motivated. I found the Pilates video excellent with Yvonne, although I missed being a part of a group.

“It was great news when the club reopened, although I did wait some weeks before returning as I have a chronic lung condition. Happy to be back. I do believe it helps the way we age.”

Tweed Dragons give back

By Jo Kennett ONE OF Australia’s best dragon boat clubs has chipped in to make Christmas a little brighter for victims of domestic violence.

Tweed Dragons, a local amateur dragon boat club that made it to the world stage two years ago, has rallied to gather parcels of food in support of the Queensland Country Women’s Association (QCWA) Coolangatta branch campaign to provide Christmas pack boxes for victims of domestic violence in the local area.

Club member Ally Cooper heard about the campaign and set about rallying support from the club to gather as much food as they could between the members, to present to the QCWA Coolangatta branch.

“When I saw the call to donate food, I knew it was something the club would get behind, and they did,” Ms Cooper said.

“We collected a great deal of food that will now be a benefit to some at this time of year.

“It’s a little bit of support that can go a long way, and such a good cause to be involved with.

“There is a great community spirit within the area and the club, we wanted to give back in a way that would benefit others” The oldest and largest Dragon Boat Club in the Tweed Shire, Tweed Dragons has a long history of involvement with community causes including Kids in Need, Breast Cancer Awareness and Cows for Cambodia.

Club members travelled to Hungary to compete in the 2018 World Crew Club Championships, and came eighth in the world in one event.

By Jo Kennett TWEED SHIRE Council representatives and local politicians were on hand to mark the completion of the new clubhouse at the Kingscliff Regional Sports Complex at Walter Peate Reserve on Tuesday, December 8.

The clubhouse is part of Stage 1 of the master plan which includes a new amenities building, a canteen upgrade, athletic facilities upgrades and new sports field lighting, all completed this year.

Car parking, entryways and landscaping, with design input from user groups, is due for construction in early 2021 The project was funded through a $3.2 million grant from the NSW Office of Sport’s Regional Sports Infrastructure Fund, which Tweed Shire Council applied for and was awarded.

Tweed Shire Council contributed $750,000, with additional contributions from the facility’s user groups, including $20,000 from Tweed Little Athletics Club and $5,000 from Kingscliff District Hockey Club.

Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said he was excited to announce funding for the project in October 2018 “and I’m delighted it has now come to fruition bringing benefits for local

players, athletes, teams their families and fans as well as the wider sporting community.”

Mayor of Tweed, Councillor Chris Cherry, said she was pleased with the project’s progress.

“This is a great facility for all Tweed residents and it’s fantastic to see the progress that’s been made this year,” she said.

“As well as the clubhouse being completed, improvements have been made to the lighting and athletic facilities.

“One of the key objectives of the project has been to provide facilities that increase female participation and improve accessibility for people with a disability to play sport.

“The layout of the facility and building designs are fully accessible and the provision of four change rooms with private shower stalls will significantly improve the opportunity for participation across all sports and schools that will use the complex.

“It’s great to receive state funding and for Council to invest in high quality facilities that create opportunities for our community to be healthier and come together through sport.”

The complex is currently home to the Cudgen Junior and Senior Cricket clubs, Kingscliff Hockey Club, Kingscliff Football Club, Tweed Little Athletics Centre, Cudgen Junior Rugby League Club and Tweed Coast Oztag also use part of the facility.

Multicap now offers Centre of Creative Arts (COCA) modules at our Tweed Heads and Robina Community Hubs.

COCA is an active and functional artistic program offering people with disability opportunities to develop creative abilities and potential, through a variety of visual, tactile and performing arts.

Tweed Shire officials including Member for Tweed Geoff Provest and Mayor Chris Cherry, along with representatives from Tweed Shire Council joined in officially opening the new facility

Murwillumbah Leagues Club has announced a fireworks show and New Year’s Eve party to bring on 2021 in style

Leagues Club to host fireworks and party for New Year’s Eve

By Jonathon Howard THE BIGGEST party of 2020 is set to take place at the Murwillumbah Leagues Club on New Year’s Eve, with the club announcing it will host a family friendly event and one of the only fireworks displays in the Tweed Shire.

The special New Year’s Eve celebration will take place on Thursday, December 31, and has received backing from a range of local businesses.

Club board member Daniel Gray said the club had approached local businesses to fund the fireworks night and bring in 2021 in traditional style.

“We found many clubs and venues were forced, or decided, to cancel their fireworks displays this year,” he said.

“So, we thought with the support of local businesses, let’s put on our own show and bring in the new year with a bang.”

Mr Gray said a COVID-safe plan will be in place and guests are required to continue observing social distancing and other health requirements.

“We believe this is a great way to bring everyone together in a great open space, with distancing, to enjoy some fireworks and party the best way we know how,” he said.

The Leagues Club wanted to thank those businesses who supported the idea including IGA, Singh’s Bus Service, Murwillumbah Truck Centre, Crystal Conveyancing, Tweed Valley Weekly, Daniel Gray Plumbing ($500), SNP Mechanical, Mustangs/Colts Club, Brims Concrete and Shoobridge Transport.

“It’s with the support of these businesses that the event is made possible,” he said.

“Make sure you come down to the Leagues Club and help bring in the New Year with a party like no other.”

For more information or to throw your support behind the event contact the Leagues Club on: (02) 6672 3982.

By Jonathon Howard THE MURWILLUMBAH Christmas elf, aka Sarah Vale, hit the streets to spread some more festive cheer with The Weekly again on Tuesday, December 15.

Sarah also helped The Weekly announce this year’s winners of the Christmas Window Display competition.

Editor Jonathon Howard said he was pleased to announce Tweed Palliative Care Op Shop as the first-place winners.

“It was a bold combination of surgical masks incorporated in the store’s window that immediately attracted my eye, as well as combining traditional decorations with modern,” he said.

“We’re pleased to announce the op shop has won a $100 donation and a quarter page advertisement in The Weekly.

“Second place went My Fashion Store who created a fabulous display of personal decorations combined with some outstanding tinsel work.

“My Fashion Store has won a quarter page advertisement and $50.

“Last but not least, in third place this year is Beverley’s on Main, which combined a great display with their product range.

“Beverley’s picked up a quarter page advertisement with The Weekly.”

The Weekly and our local Christmas Elf also wanted to remind residents of the Twilight Shopping event, hosted by the Murwillumbah & District Business Chamber and taking place on Friday, December 18.

“This is a great way for residents to do their Christmas shopping locally and to support local businesses,” Sarah said.

“I’d like to encourage everyone to get down to the main street from 4pm to 8pm and enjoy some evening shopping.”

There are also a variety of businesses that are taking part in the event including Larkin Electrical and more, allowing residents extra time to sort out their gifts and support local businesses.

Local News 43

Taylen continues to shred on his dirt bike

By Brad Nardi

IT’S ALWAYS a great feeling as Christmas nears and we ready for some time with friends and family, to celebrate together, or just unwind after a busy year – and this Christmas that sense of reflection and relief is particularly heightened after the year that 2020 has been.

It was a year of unprecedented challenges, from the heat and bushfires of last summer and a buckling global pandemic that led to innumerable pressures on small business and constantly changing border restrictions, followed up by initially welcome rainfall that is now flooding some parts of the region.

It’s fair to say 2020 has delivered its fair share of tough times!

But I think we can also look back at the year and see how we have all adapted and supported one another as a community and navigated the hurdles with innovation and camaraderie.

Despite the challenges, we’ve seen Tweed businesses rethink what they do, reevaluate, re-brand, create new products, open new businesses and partner together to refresh experiences – which has all been truly inspiring!

Our constant message in promoting the Tweed to locals and visitors alike throughout the year was around an evolving “Love the Tweed” campaign, encouraging support for local businesses at key trigger times, from Easter and Mother’s Day, to school holiday periods and Father’s Day, and now via our Christmas Gift Guide campaign (see more at visitthetweed.com. au/giftguide).

We started 2020 by launching our new website visitthetweed.com.au and followed this up later in the year with the release of

two new Tweed publications, the Hinterland Drives and Foodies Guides, as well as opening our new Murwillumbah Visitor Information Centre. We also partnered on projects to help guide industry resilience and wellbeing, so critical to steering through trying times.

All of these initiatives were brought to life via the participation of our local businesses and tourism operators and I want to say a big thank you to all in the industry, on behalf of the Tweed Tourism Co team, for your ongoing support, especially this year.

Looking ahead, 2021 already seems set to start in a positive way with the exciting news that the Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre will be the first venue in Australia to host the 2020 Archibald Prize Regional Tour, from January 22 to March 7. This is a major win for our region that will draw significant visitation and congratulations are due to the Gallery team for attracting such a bright spotlight event to the Tweed.

On that note, myself and the Tweed Tourism Co wish you much brightness for the festive season ahead and we hope you have a restful and restorative time with your loved ones – see you in 2021!

Bradley Nardi is the General Manager for the Tweed Tourism Company, the region’s official tourism management and marketing organisation.

By Jo Kennett CABARITA’S TAYLEN Howard is making waves on the dirt track motorbike circuit, placing second in two Queensland titles.

The 12-year-old missed a bit of competition this year with COVID and border closures, but Taylen recently travelled 15 hours to Ayr in North Queensland to compete in the Queensland Track and Dirt Track Titles.

His Mum Elly said that with minimal bike time and racing in 2020 due to the restrictions, “he had a successful weekend of racing bringing home two Queensland 2nd Titles on his 65cc.”

“Taylen headed to Kempsey to compete in the NSW Dirt Track Titles/Akubra Classic on oil, which proved to be another rewarding experience taking the win on his Div 2 50cc, Junior Trail Bike 80cc and 2nd on his 65cc,” Elly told The Weekly.

“The prestigious Casey Stoner Cup held at Kurri Kurri saw Taylen on the podium again, 1st Div 2 and 3rd 65cc.

“The NSW Track Titles were held at Tamworth during the heatwave which was tough conditions for this coastal Caba kid, but he did us proud finishing on the podium with 2nd 65cc and 3rd Div 2 50cc.

“He also finished the year at his local club, Mike Hatcher’s Junior Motorcycle Club, on the podium for all three bikes with 1st Div 2 50cc, 1st 80 Modified and 3rd 65cc A grade.”

Taylen was due to race on Saturday, December 12, in the North Brisbane Cup, but it was postponed due to the wet weather and won’t run until next year.

Elly said that Taylen has decided to move up a class to the 9-13 years where he will be racing his 65cc and also up a bike size to his 85cc.

“It has been a busy end to his race year, but thankfully the majority of meets were run except the Australian titles,” she said.

Taylen is also a fan of Superbikes and MotoGP and may transition to road bikes in the future.

“My favourite rider is Marc Marquez because he has the best bikes from Honda and is a very talented rider,” Taylen said.

“I like watching the Australian Superbike Championships, which has the Oceania Junior Cup, as some of my older mates race in it.

“I can’t choose between dirt and road, so would love to do both and see where it goes from there – would be cool to race the MotoGP one day though.”

The baby we celebrate at Christmas was Jesus. He grew to become the loving Saviour that we all know. He loved everyone, he did not have favourites or special interest groups. He led by example, a man, God who loved, cared and nurtured.

After a difficult and arduous year may you be richly blessed and enjoy Christmas with your family and friends.

I hope and pray that the year ahead will be less stressful and bring to all a renewed sense of hope and optimism.

Christmas. This season can be overwhelming because of all we have to get done. When we have needs, it’s nice to know that someone cares enough about us to be willing to help.

Christmas Greetings from Pastors Bob & Helga Spence.

Have a happy and blessed Christmas and a Wonderful prosperous New Year

Well, that is what Christmas is really all about. Christmas is God demonstrating his love for us by God Himself becoming a man. God is a spirit and as a spirit He cannot die. God sent his son as a man so that He could die to meet our greatest need - the payment of our sin.

Christmas in your Church 49

If you’re anything like me, you can’t wait to see the back of 2020! It’s been an almost unbearable year of upheaval and uncertainty, from fires to floods and of course COVID. Life tends to take many twists and turns. Sometimes we feel as if we are cruising on a freeway, and at other times we feel as if we have reached the end of a no-through road. Yet if you were to somehow gather all the crises of this year and determine their significance, they would pale in comparison to the most important moment this world has ever seen.

“For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given…” Isaiah 9:6.

84904

2000 years ago, in the lonely town of Bethlehem, Jesus, God’s own Son, was born. He did not come with the pomp of kings, although He was one. But instead, He was born in an obscure place to common parents. Why is this the most important moment the world has ever known? It is because the Son was given, and He was given to humanity for all-time. He was given to us in life, death and resurrection. And because of this, our future is as secure as His. In uncertainty He is certain. In trial He triumphs. When everything is unsure, He is sure.

“Come to Bethlehem and see, Him whose birth the angels sing; Come adore on bended knee, Christ, the Lord, the new-born King.”

May your Christmas be all you want it to be ...

Merry Christmas

“Thanks be to God for His indescribable Gift!”

All Saints Anglican Parish The good news of Christmas is worth celebrating for three reasons. It is personal: “I bring you”. It is positive: “Good news of great joy.” And it is universal: “for all the people.” It doesn’t matter who you are, what you’ve done, where you’ve been, or where you’re headed – this news is for you.

The angel brought us news we can use: God loves you!

God is with you!

God is for you!

The entire reason for Christmas is the love of God. God loves you so much that he came to earth as a human so we could get to know him and learn to trust him and love him. Jesus has power and authority to change our lives for the better. Enjoy his love as we celebrate his birthday.

Horse-drawn coaches faced many challenges in the Tweed COBB & CO Museum Curator Jeff Powell has kindly contributed some of the rich history of horsedrawn coaches ferrying people and cargo across Southern Queensland and Northern NSW in the late 19th century.

Christmas approaches, and the Post Office and couriers are busy delivering millions of parcels ordered on-line. Things were not so different in the 19th century.

Goods from mail order catalogues came to country towns via a mail coach, pulled by four or more horses.

Cobb & Co coaches not only went ‘way-out-west’, but coach horses literally cantered along the beach carrying passengers, parcels, and mail to coastal settlements.

Cobb & Co coaches initially travelled from Brisbane just as far as Pimpama in 1870. The route was extended to Nerang Creek a year later. A service through to Southport was opened in early 1880. It helped that Cobb & Co’s Brisbane manager, Fred Shaw, had a ‘fine house’ built in Southport in 1879.The tri-weekly coach service from Brisbane would have been very convenient.

Look out Surfers!

The coach route was further extended to Tallebudgera Creek in 1883. Coaches ran along Ferry Road, naturally enough, to Meyer’s ferry across the Nerang River.

The coach, and horses, disembarked at ‘Elston’, now known as Surfers Paradise. The driver then steered the coach right

along what is now Cavill Avenue to the beach. Coaches travelled along the hard sand on the beach to Tallebudgera.

This would have been smooth travelling compared to the usual lurching, bumping journey on a coach. Gold Coast beaches were used as vehicle thoroughfares well into the twentieth century, just like four-wheel drives at Fraser Island today. If a coach became stuck in the sand, a bullock team from the nearby sawmills would help pull it out.

To the Tweed

Cobb & Co also ran from Tallebudgera to Coolangatta and Tweed Heads via Currumbin for a short time in the late 1880s.

Once again, coaches ran along the beach. After 1888 the route from Southport to Tweed Heads was operated by new coach proprietors, Richard Dodd and Otto Vetter.

Vetter was a local businessman who had a hotel at Cudgen Creek, and later also opened the Queensland Hotel at Coolangatta and a store at Tweed Heads. Ted McMillan, Jack Rodgers and Tom Lightbody were drivers for Otto Vetter.

Over the mountains to Murwillumbah

Cobb & Co extended the route from Tallebudgera over the mountains and through the rainforest to Murwillumbah in 1886. This was a particularly steep, rough and dangerous track.

One ‘correspondent’ to the Northern Star in Lismore

(January 16, 1886) thought the service would not be popular, noting he would “rather not” make the trip on a coach when they had “a fine steamer (ship) making regular trips”.

Cobb & Co ceased running on this route as well in 1888, but it was continued for many years by the Jarvis Family; James, George and Arthur, who already had coach routes stretching from Murwillumbah as far as Brunswick Heads and Clunes in the 1880s.

They experienced serious accidents on the track between Murwillumbah and Tallebudgera.

Arthur Jarvis lost control of the coach coming down ‘Wiangrum Hill’ in July 1901.

The coach skidded for 70 metres.

Arthur was thrown off as the coach capsized against a tree at speed. Fortunately, the seven passengers were not seriously injured, but in a similar accident the following March, a girl was thrown out of the coach and killed. The poor condition of the track was blamed in each case.

A route from Nerang railway station to Murwillumbah via Mudgeeraba and Tallebudgera was initiated in 1888 and was operated for a time by Thomas and William Gaven, before this section also was taken over by the Jarvis family.

Inconvenience was added to the danger on this route in the 1890s when tick gates were installed at the border. NSW officials had to inspect every coach horse and load coming south. Nevertheless,

this was a busy route with six services each way per week.

Nerang was the nearest railway station to Murwillumbah.

For several years, postal mail bound for Sydney from Murwillumbah went over the mountains by coach to Nerang railway station, and from there to Brisbane which was connected to Sydney by rail in 1889.

Railways are coming

The coach route from Murwillumbah to Lismore, driven by a Wright Harrison Hampson, ceased in 1894. A New South Wales railway line connected Murwillumbah to Lismore, via the port at Byron Bay and Mullumbimby. It would be several decades before this North

A Queensland Railways line from Brisbane replaced coaches to Tweed Heads in 1902, although the mail coach service continued over the mountains from Murwillumbah to Tallebudgera.

A long-anticipated railway connection between Murwillumbah and Tweed Heads never eventuated.

Horses and coaches were being retired on many roads by the First World War, but they had not completely disappeared.

Edward Arney from Murwillumbah won the mail contract to Uki (six times a week) and onto Mt Burrell (three times a week) in March 1918. His coach and four horse team would have been one of the last in Australia.

BABY DONE

FILMS with Mia

There is something peculiar about the brand of humor developed in New Zealand comedies.

It is difficult to describe - its dryness and facial expressions – but I find it irresistible. I still remember Hunt for the Wilderpeople - the more I watched it the funnier I found it. So, despite the uninspiring title Baby Done I decided to take a leap of faith and watch the new comedy produced by Taika Waititi. I was not disappointed.

The film is a sort of ‘the bucket list’ Kiwi style, its protagonist being not a terminally ill person but a young woman on the verge of motherhood. Zoe is adventurous, fearless and strong, works as an arborist in team with her boyfriend Tim and wants to compete in the World Tree Climbing Championship in Canada. Repelled by the traditional idea of marriage and parenthood (the movie title comes from one of her lines while cringing at a friend’s baby shower: ‘married, house, baby, done’) she predictably freaks out when discovering that she herself is pregnant.

Not that she doesn’t want to have a baby, she just doesn’t want to become a mother. So, denial kicks in and Zoe pretends to continue her life as if nothing has happened.

85282

Talking

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Tim is much more enthusiastic and practicalminded and starts preparing as normal parentsto-be would, but the more he tries to steer Zoe towards reality, the more she runs away, from reality and from him. Things start taking a turn for the worse when nature kicks in, literally, and reluctant Zoe has to surrender. But this is not a simple silly comedy, it is a character-driven story about two lovely people dealing with a crucial time in their life – their plight very convincingly portrayed by two excellent actors, Kiwi comedian Rose Matafeo and British Matthew Lewis of Harry Potter fame.

There are very funny moments in this journey to parenthood – like one of the most funnily cringe worthy threesome scenes ever seen on screen and tragic ones as well. Despite Zoe’s reactions to impending motherhood seeming a bit outrageous, they must be rooted in a real experience or at least a real state of mind, considering that screenwriter Sophie Henderson was pregnant while writing the script and that the movie’s director Curtis Vowell is her husband. It seems to convey a critique of the traditional attitude of tying women down to motherhood rather than celebrating how high they can climb.

League legends visit Kingscliff

By Jo Kennett A COUPLE of rugby league legends were at Kingscliff for a mentoring program for young Indigenous girls on Tuesday, December 8.

Justin Hodges and Scott Prince are part of The Beyond the Broncos Indigenous Girls Academy Mentoring Program, which highlights the vital role that young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women play in influencing the next generation.

The program ambassadors joined Student Support Officers and girls from Kingscliff High School, Murwillumbah High School and Wollumbin High School at Faulks Park for a fun day to reward good school attendance.

“Each term we deliver programs and workshops, so today is our Term 4 reward day which we do every year,” Justin told The Weekly.

“We just have fun, play some traditional games, have a bit of fun with them, and have a feed, and just get them off their feet, just to say thank you for the year.

“Sometimes they get over that teacher student sort of vibe and so we just try to have fun with them in term four.”

More than 1,500 female students are enrolled in the program across 42 Queensland schools and eight schools in NSW. It provides mentoring from Student Support Officers in each school, who support girls from Years 7 to 12 and into young adulthood to help the young leaders succeed.

“We were lucky with COVID that we could come down,” Justin said.

“All year we didn’t get to see students in NSW, so a lot of the stuff we did was online.

“We have wonderful Student Support Officers with them at school that are always with them and always looking after them.

“If they need help with homework and stuff like that there is always someone there to help them.

“It’s just good to be down here and spend some time with the girls.”

Justin Hodges and Scott Prince with Murwillumbah High School award winner Hayley Jones

Justin said it was the ambassador’s job to educate young Indigenous girls to be leaders in their community.

“We touch on our own experience when we deliver workshops; we all come from different walks of life, but we are all Indigenous and proud of that,” he said.

“We are just teaching our young sisters a bit of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander history that they don’t get taught through school.

“We try to get them out of their comfort zone, to stand in front of the group and talk as well.

“We try to empower them to be good leaders and to stand up and be counted.”

Northern NSW Regional Coordinator of the Broncos Indigenous Girls Academy, Lisa McDade, said that each term Justin, Scott and another ambassador, Broncos’ Ali Brigginshaw, run workshops in each school on topics including culture, lifestyle and career, with the support of the Australian Government, Kia and NRMA Insurance.

The NRMA awards are for an outstanding student from each school that has 90 per cent and above attendance, academic achievements and “a great attitude to participating in the community and the program.”

Prince and Hodges handed out awards at the rewards day to Shania Campbell from Wollumbin High School and Hayley Jones from Murwillumbah High School.

Alyce Togo from Kingscliff High School also won an NRMA award.

Xane takes big Qld triathlon win

Local Markets Guide

By Jo Kennett A YOUNG Murwillumbah triathlete has taken another major win at the Queensland 2020 Super Sprint Race Weekend in Runaway Bay on Sunday, December 13.

Fourteen-year-old Xane Bowen placed first in the Queensland Super Sprint Youth A Final, another feather in the cap of the hard-working youngster who is really making a name for himself.

Xane’s Tweed Valley Triathletes coach Brendan Murray said that after a couple of days of racing where things didn’t go to plan, “Xane came out and raced like a champion.”

“He was sitting in good standing, fourth place onto the run, with some great talent up front,” Brendan told The Weekly.

“Xane laid it down and made his way to the front with 800 to go.

“It’s all heart and guts from there; thank you for showing us your true nature when your back was against the wall.”

Xane also came third overall in the points score.

In November, Xane won three races in three categories at Orange to be crowned the Triathlon NSW Super Sprint Champion Youth.

His coach said Xane’s times qualified him to race in the A final alongside Under 18 Junior competitors and Under 23 Elites at that event.

“Siding up next to these guys Xane described as the most amazing experience,” Brendan said.

“The start and part of a dream being actualised for this young fellow is something

he has absolutely forged through three and a half years of hard work.

“I love Xane’s story because it’s not a quick glaze over of ‘natural talent’ whatever that means.

“His hard work includes having a thirst for improvement, learning from many mistakes, reflecting, listening and showing up always, and his relentless preparation, which he works at in his own time physically and mentally.

“Most of all, he has the heart and guts to have a crack and put himself on the edge where there is a fine line between ultimate potential and a catastrophe.

“His secret weapon is his Mum Sharnah who has supported his dream tirelessly through all adversity.

“Huge thanks to long time sponsor Coast Cyclery and also all the people from Tweed Valley Triathlon club, TNSW, Tweed Shire Council and the Tweed Regional Aquatic Centre who all have helped towards this achievement.”

Give a gift for rescue animals

By Jonathon Howard A CRABBES CREEK farming family, running a self-funded animal sanctuary, have recently launched a creative and traditional way to share stories from rescue animals.

Mama B recently wrote to The Weekly with her family’s story, which includes enduring a particularly rough 12 months with drought and bushfires.

“During the fires last year, we evacuated local animals to the safety of our 130-acre sanctuary, as well as flood and COVID,” she said.

“This has meant that to continue to support our rescue family, we’ve had to get creative.

“We are graphic artists and copywriters by trade, so we came up with the idea of sending letters from our sanctuary by the sea.

“So, I’m so relieved and super excited to announce that after hundreds of hours of work, we have just launched our first ever website and our ethical gift that keeps on giving ‘Owl & PussyCat Tales’ – just in time for Christmas.”

The beautifully illustrated, snail-mail letters share colourful stories told by a different rescue resident every month.

“Suitable for all ages, these doublesided, collectible letters are educational, affordable, interactive and fun,” Mama B said.

“They are a unique and accessible way to support our rescue family and for people to be part of their journey.

“Plus every letter includes a free postcard featuring stunning photos of our residents.”

The stories can be posted anywhere in the world.

“But if people are concerned that their letter won’t arrive in time for Christmas, we will email a beautiful e-card that you can give to the gift recipient at Christmas time (or can be emailed directly to them),” she said.

“We also have electronic versions of the letter available.

“All proceeds go directly to supporting our rescue residents and our ongoing rescue work.”

More information is available at: w w w. o w l a n d p u s s y c a t f a r m . c o m . au/?product=owl-and-pussycat-tales Locals are also welcome to visit the sanctuary. Get in touch via the sanctuary’s social media pages, website, or email: hello@owlandpussycatfarm.com.au

Lexi

is a two-year-old desexed female Kelpie x. This girl deserves a loving home as she has had a rough start to life, being in the centre of a domestic violence situation which has left her frightened of men initially until she feels she can trust them. Once she has gained trust she is a delightful, affectionate, loyal and loving girl who plays well with other dogs. A home on acreage would suit her so she can get plenty of exercise and stimulation.

Microchip no 900164001696695. If you can give Lexi a permanent, loving home please contact Pam on 0421 017 461. Visit friendsofthepound.com to view other dogs and cats looking for a home.

Thanks!

Tappa sums up a challenging year for surfing

By Terry ‘Tappa’ Teece WELL 2020 has certainly been a different year. Those around the Tweed Coast have had many trials and tribulations since the COVID-19 pandemic sent the world into a spin.

There has been the border issues with Queensland, with those pesky Queenslanders coming to the Tweed Coast to surf in droves, even though the border was shut to people from NSW for well over a six months. But amongst all the trials and tribulations there has been some good things going on.

Kingscliff Boardriders qualified for the final of the Australian Boardriders Battle and made a very respectful performance in the national finals despite bowing out in the first round. Even better is the fact that Kingscliff have qualified for the 2021 Australian Boardriders Battle, and with the form of the team they should be looking at an even better performance early next year.

It has been a great year for the yellow and black of Kingscliff Boardriders.

Cabrita Boardriders have also had a great year, recommencing club rounds again, and only narrowly missing out on qualification to the Australian Boardriders battle by a fraction of a point. They have some great young talent, have regular training, and will be going from strength to strength in 2021.

Quincy Simmonds and Riley Brown both placed 4th in the NSW Titles, but with the advent of COVID-19 the no Australian Titles were held, only the video titles, where participants had to

use video footage of themselves to submit for judging.

For the WSL it has been quite a hard year, all competition suspended from March, with the 2021 season recommencing only a few weeks ago with the Pipeline Masters, and the Women’s Pro in Maui. But it seems it was not meant to happen, with the women’s pro getting down to the semi-finals, before a shark attack at Honoloua Bay caused a hold on the event. There was a plan to finish the event at the Pipeline Masters, but that has all fallen in a heap after a COVID-19 outbreak amongst WSL staff inside the event has put a hold on the event,

with a restart date not known as yet. It looks like at this stage, many of the world’s top surfers will be spending Christmas in Hawaii. Mele Kalikimaka!

Ok, it has not been the best year but we are blessed to live wear we live, and although the last swell was massive and basically unsurfable, there is a low pressure system likely to develop into a cyclone, and should at least give us a nice clean solid “Santa Swell”, so at least we will have some waves for Christmas.

Seasons’ Greetings to all, thanks for reading in 2020, and I’ll catch you in the waves! Tappa.

Holding Shot with Judy Tuckey WOMEN’S SUMMER League, this year, attracted nominations from 12 teams within the Tweed Byron District. Formatted on two bowl triples over 15 ends, teams are also subject to grading restrictions with only one Grade 1 or Grade 2 player per team.

Random sectional draws this season produced 3 sections of 4 teams to compete.

Section One teams contested only five of the six rounds on the agenda. Potty Perils’ Jan Appleton, Pat Field and Julie Bridges accumulated eight points plus a 42-shot margin to secure an unbeatable position to carry them forward to the play offs for top honours.

Section Two teams also only contested five games for the same reason (as above).

Pottsville Stingers’ Coral Nathan, Desley Watterson and Rosanna Wheeler top scored on eight points plus a 41 shot margin, again an unbeatable score, to also go forward.

Section three needed the whole six games to be played to declare a winner. After five rounds Kingy Fishers’ Maureen James, Ricky Gargan and Anne Mullen held a one-point lead over Potty Trio’s George Moore, Sue Lawrance and Fran Field with the remaining two teams trailing.

However, as both the leading teams were defeated in the final round, the Kingy Fishers, with a solid overall score on the board to carry them over, claimed victory with eight points and a 48-shot margin, to also take their place in the play offs.

With women’s clubs now in recession, the play-offs and final in this event are to be scheduled for January 2021 at Cabarita with details to be advised in due course.

Kingscliff ’s men’s annual President’s Singles, a 21-shots up contest, certainly continues to be an extremely popular club competition.

Being a handicapped event based on pennant gradings, it levels the playing field for lower graded bowlers wishing to enter the fray. This year’s finalists Peter Curran and Too Elton, both being Division Seven players, and being awarded a long handicap, made the best of their head start as they contested the preliminary rounds on their way to the final.

The final joust in this event evolved in a closely contested game with the lead alternating at times and the score levelling on several occasions. With the score on 20-19 in favour of Curran, Elton was holding shot with his last bowl.

Curran’s last bowl succeeded in miraculously snookering Elton’s shot as it took the jack back to give him three shots and victory. A great game from both contestants. Well done, guys.

My best wishes for a Merry Christmas to everyone. Stay safe and healthy and be kind to each other.

The Weekly Real Estate working wonders

By Jonathon Howard

THE WEEKLY Real Estate from Coast to Country, launched this year, has been hailed a success by local agents, with reports of buyers using all types of media to find their dream home or investment, including straight from the pages of The Weekly.

While the Tweed and Southern Gold Coast property boom has assisted, the timing could not be better for print media to capture buyers that do not use the internet.

Schmith Estate Agents principal Justin Schmith said his sale of 38 Thomson Street at Tweed Heads, served as the perfect example of a buyer who found what they wanted in the local paper.

“The highest bidder and buyer, to the envy of many, who ultimately secured 38 Thomson Street, doesn’t use emails or the internet,” Mr Schmith said.

“Downsizing from a Tweed Valley acreage property, having

worked in office positions for many years, chooses not to be heavily involved in modern technology communications.

“Basically, if it wasn’t for Schmith Estate Agents having advertised the property in the local Tweed Valley Weekly, this lovely buyer would have missed out on her chance to secure the property in town.”

Mr Schmith spoke highly of The Weekly, including the quaility of the print product and focus on local news.

“It’s a great balanced local newspaper that provides a valuable source of marketing, especially for those looking for a mixed marketing approach,” he said.

“Of course, there’s always going to be online sales, they’re strong, but when there’s buyers looking, it’s important to have the listings in front of them, whatever methods you chose.”

The Weekly would like to extend a big thank you to those local real

estate agents that have helped make the Real Estate from Coast to Country feature a success.

The Weekly owner Jonathon Howard said the feedback was “extremely well” received and appreciated.

“We have many readers who check the real estate section first and foremost, and this is testament to the content provided in partnership with our sales and design team.

“I’d like to thank our local agents for supporting their local paper and we will continue to strive to deliver the Tweed Shire the most trusted and comprehensive local newspaper to the Tweed and Southern Gold Coast for years to come.”

YOUR TESTIMONIAL: If you are a local agent or reader and would like to share a positive story, The Weekly would love to hear from you.

CORELOGIC HAS released its latest Quarterly Economic Review, which outlines the recovery in the real estate market in the months to November 2020.

The report highlighted both Sydney and regional NSW as being back into the “upswing phase” of the property cycle.

“Sydney dwelling values were up 0.3 per cent, while regional values were up 3.1 per cent,” CoreLogic’s Head of Research Australia, Eliza Owen, said.

“For regional NSW, this is the highest quarterly growth rate since 2017. Indicators are showing the regional NSW dwelling market is still on the rise, despite the recession.

“Every regional market in NSW has seen an increase in dwelling values since March through to November.

“There were around 18,000 regional dwelling sales in the three months to November, up a remarkable 23.3 per cent on the same period in 2019.”

Looking forward to 2021, Ms Owen said NSW dwelling markets are generally expected to remain in “upswing”.

“But pockets of the market are at risk of further decline.

Demand is generally shifting from inner-city stock preferred by investors, to detached housing at the periphery of the metropolitan area, and in regional NSW,” she said.

Ms Owen said the post-COVID mortgage lending boost was driven by owner-occupiers, including changeover buyers such as upsizers and downsizers, as well as buyers getting into the property market for the first time.

“Money lent to first-home buyers saw the fastest growth rate at 35.1 per cent in the year to October, accounting for 22.1 per cent of lending, up from 18.8 per cent in the year prior,” she said.

“Meanwhile, investor mortgage lending increased less than one per cent in the same period. There are several factors that contributed to this growth in first-home buyer activity, including generational trends, monetary and fiscal incentives and lower dwelling values and competition.”
