Petition launched over ‘dodgy Pottsville mobile service’ about 5G, but we don’t need 5G, 4G would work fine,” she said.

“Where I grew up in France they have little towers everywhere.

“Even in the middle of the street among fake palm trees so you can’t even see them. There’s a lot they can do and a lot of new technology.”

Ms Monniot-Kerr said it was about equality and having access to the opportunities that telecommunications bring.

“Obviously there are people who work from home, but we have zero reception, so we have to pay more to have a landline,” she said.

“It’s quite frustrating that we can’t be like everyone else; we pay our taxes like everyone else. We should all have the same, but we miss out and that’s unfair.”

Gregg Miller lives beachside at Pottsville and has been petitioning the government and Telstra for years to have something done about mobile phone coverage.

“I still can’t use my phone in the house and sometimes people can’t hear me on the phone outside,” Mr Miller said.

Telstra public affairs spokesperson Chris Marks said the ‘small cell’ technology used in Europe had limited range.

“We do use them in some metro locations to boost capacity and in some regional and remote locations across Australia where it is not feasible or possible to construct a full-size base station,” he said.

“However, they have a limited range compared to a base station – a coverage diameter of perhaps a couple of hundred metres in perfect conditions compared to many kilometres – and as they are generally located lower to the ground, coverage can be severely impacted by terrain and trees.

“Electromagnetic energy for both small cells and base stations are about the same and well under World Health Organisation limits (three per cent of allowed limit) so that part is never an issue.”

Mr Marks said the Telstra coverage maps showed Pottsville as being 100 per cent covered.

By Jo Kennett POTTSVILLE HAS 100 per cent mobile phone coverage according to Telstra, but that will come as news to many desperate residents, including one who has launched a petition to have a mobile phone tower installed at Koala Beach.

Lilas Monniot-Kerr has lived at Koala Beach since 2009 and has had to keep a landline, as there is almost no mobile phone reception in her street.

“You see people up the street near the pond with their phones in the air trying to get reception,” Ms Monniot-Kerr said.

“The worst thing is that we have had no acknowledgment from Telstra of the problem; Pottsville and this area aren’t even on the black spots map, but they must know.

“When they first built at Koala Beach they wanted to put a tower at the top near the water tower, but there was a push against it and they had to drop it.

“That was probably twenty years ago and since then they have abandoned us.”

Ms Monniot-Kerr recently started a petition at the Pottsville General Store and is looking for support from concerned community members.

“There was one person who didn’t want to sign because they were concerned

Knox Park vandalism prompts call for CCTV

which we have been implementing over the past six years,” Mr Brawley said.

“The improvements in the park are designed to improve the amenity and safety by improving visibility through the park, but also key to improving safety is encouraging the community to use the park which helps discourage these anti-social activities.

“Council will replace the trees and repair the clock as the community should not be disadvantaged due to the actions of an inconsiderate few.

“Council encourages the community to report any information they may have to the police and to continue to take ownership of the park to discourage this anti-social vandalism.”

A Tweed Shire Council spokesperson said Council receives numerous community and business requests to have CCTV installed at locations throughout

“CCTV is costly to install and requires ongoing technology upgrade, maintenance and retrieval,” the Council spokesperson said.

“Unfortunately, Council currently does not have funding for the installation of new CCTV systems in public places but will continue to apply for funding as opportunities arise.”

Several locals have told The Weekly that vandalism remains a big issue across the Murwillumbah CBD and one local believes social media is part of the problem.

“These people sit back and wait to see what happens online, it’s a thrill for them to see everyone’s comments getting upset,” one local, who preferred to remain anonymous, said.

By Jonathon Howard VANDALISM AT Murwillumbah’s Knox Park, including damage to new tree plantings and a decorative clock, has prompted calls for Tweed Shire Council to install CCTV to keep a closer eye on the park.

But a Council spokesperson said CCTV can be costly to install and operate, and while Council will continue to apply for funding to use the camera technology – it is not currently viable.

Many locals have witnessed vandalism throughout the Tweed Shire and have expressed outrage after the recently completed Knox Park appears to be the latest target.

Tweed Shire Council’s Manager of Parks and Active Communities, Stewart Brawley, said Council staff were “extremely disappointed”.

“We’re extremely disappointed by the mindless vandalism in Knox Park over the past week including the destruction of numerous newly planted trees and damage to the new park clock,” he said.

The clock was completely removed from Knox Park, with residents again expressing their concerns by what appears to be a long-running vandalism issue for Murwillumbah.

“The community has embraced the recent park upgrades which are the latest stage of the Knox Park masterplan

Congratulations to The Tweed Hospital’s nursing and midwifery team for nomination in the NSW Health Excellence in Nursing and Midwifery Awards.

Open Fingal for pedestrians

I read with disappointment Tweed Shire Council voted to keep Letitia Road, Fingal Head closed until February 22, 2021, to protect Aboriginal Elders and vulnerable residents to COVID-19.

Perhaps Council should consider moving the barricades to Fingal Road, preferably at the roundabout just under to M1, to protect Aboriginal Elders and other elderly residents who live along Fingal Road.

The article also states Letitia Road remains open to pedestrians and cyclists. Then why are there two sets of barricades that completely block Letitia Road just past the houses?

And there is a sign on the public road that says “No pedestrian no access turn around use public beach access”.

Who is responsible to keep access open along public roads – Tweed Shire Council, so please organise to remove these barricades as soon

School traffic concerns at Banora Point

An explanation from Tweed Shire Council is urgently requested about solving the daily chaotic and dangerous conditions that exist every school day at the intersection of Leisure and Greenway Drive roundabout and Doyle Drive roundabout.

Both roundabouts are too small, particularly the one at the Doyle Drive exit where two cars cannot go around together if one wants to turn left and the other wants to go right.

Buses have to go across the roundabout shoulders, as do many cars, as it is far too small.

This creates a very dangerous and chaotic situation every school day in the morning and again in the afternoon.

Council has ignored this situation far too long and the traffic increases all the time as the Industrial Park is also growing.

Traffic lights are urgently needed at the Leisure/Greenway Drive roundabout before a serious or fatal accident will happen here, as a game of cat and mouse is played here at those times.

The roundabout situation at Doyle Drive has to be completely redesigned and this sooner than later.

Ken Fallman, Banora Point

Real reason for school closures

It’s clear as mud to see what the NSW Government is after by closing public schools around Murwillumbah for amalgamation.

It’s development! Word going around is these school positions are perfect housing commission spots for struggling renters. Unless the government can come forward and explain why the closures and the purpose of the land.

Leave the schools alone for future young families in the area as explained by the Tweed Valley Weekly letter writers on November 19.

Peter Lazer, Bilambil

There’s no country party anymore

It used to be called The Country Party but it appears that the current breed of Nationals don’t have a country bone in their bodies given the forced amalgamation of schools in Murwillumbah. Don’t they remember? Don’t they care?

Schools in country towns are a part of the community where students, parents and staff share a common pride and identity. Kids can walk to school, parents feel welcome and encouraged to help out, and teachers are known and trusted in the towns they call home and where they have taught generations of kids.

An impersonal and daunting 1500 student edifice cancels out some of what growing up and raising a family here actually means.

A lack of consultation is nothing new with this government who are developing a knack for keeping things under wraps. There was Gladys’ secret five-year romance w i t h d i s g r a c e d fo r m e r M P Daryl Maguire – ‘I don’t want to know,’ ‘You don’t need to know,’ arrangement, for which the NSW upper house voted to refer her to the corruption watchdog, ICAC. The much vaunted, much resisted and now defunct council merger policy is in crisis, with the 20 affected councils losing $1.3 billion over the past three years, with one mayor calling it a ‘dud deal’ and ratepayers facing increased rates and cuts to services as a result.

Talking about dud deals, there is the worthless bit of toxic ground near Parramatta that the government paid $53.5 million for as a tram depot for the light rail with a potential bill of between $50 -$700

million for the clean up that they are now liable for.

Then of course there is the $250 million allocation of the Stronger Communities Fund grants, with 95% of councils receiving money being in coalition electorates; the briefing notes were shredded and electronic records deleted.

No; we don’t need to know that either, nor the deal with James Packer’s high roller Crown Casino at Barangaroo, which is under the Liquor and Gaming Authorities’ spotlight. NSW taxpayers are potentially liable for millions in compensation for Crown’s losses if the government acts to change any of the conditions of its licence, serious allegations about money laundering and partners with links to organised crime being raised during the inquiry.

The recent backflip on koala protection policy should not fade into the background of these newer calamities but sadly for them, it already has. For the government however, the next bad news cycle has some compensations at least.

Use Knox Park for youth

I read with interest the comments about incorporating green spaces and a community facility for the youth at the former Murwillumbah bowls club site.

The site is over the road from Knox Park with things for the youth to do.

Why hasn’t Knox Park been utilised before now. There’s plenty of room for a clubhouse beside existing buildings to help the youth I’m happy Woolworths are coming.

It will clean up the site and create competition, something that is needed in Murwillumbah.

Un-Australian values

We often hear Peter Dutton referring to ‘the character test’ and ‘Australian values’ when he is deporting people. He fails on both counts.

The Biloela family and their two Australian-born children have been locked up on Christmas Island at a cost of over $10 million for pure political reasons for a year. Their local community wants them back.

Then there are the Udawatta children and their mother in Kempsey. Their father has died from cancer and they face immediate deportation. The mother works in the community and their community also wants them back. With one phone call, Peter Dutton could end this cruelty to the little children and wish them a merry Christmas but will he do it? We are better than this Peter. Come on show some compassion or don’t Australian values mean anything anymore?

Ray Armstrong, Tweed Heads South

Poor water management

I make no apology for bucketing Council over the issue of water. With the ever-rising tide of population, water is renewable and free from the heavens. All they have to do is save it for our use. The Byrill Creek Dam should be an election issue at the next Council election.

When I came to the Tweed, Clarrie Hall Dam had just opened and water was being connected. Council’s catch-cry then was get rid of your water tanks, they are not needed.

There was plenty of water and even a supply line to the Gold Coast. Now they want to dope us with their bucket a night propaganda. Raising the dam wall will help for a while but it is not a long-term solution.

Every new resident should be concerned and old residents mindful that we have water for our current and future use.

Dulguigan Road remains issue for speeding, says report

Rebates Still Available!

WANT SOLAR? INSTALLED IN 30 DAYS

GUARANTEED! Tumbulgum Community Association president Jennifer Kidd on Dulguigan Road, which residents have reported numerous road safety concerns.

“Council truck drivers have been reminded of the 60km per hour speed limit on Dulguigan Road and the importance of travelling at safe speeds,” Council’s report said.

Council, along with Transport for NSW, reduced the speed limit on Dulguigan Road from a default rural 100km per hour to 80km per hour.

The special 60km per hour speed limit for trucks along the quarry route remains, but now also applies to buses.

The new speed limit signage was installed on January 31, 2020. Council traffic tubes were installed at the end of January 2020 near 809 Dulguigan Road.

“This location was selected because it is on a straight section of road where motorists would likely reach their maximum speed,” Council’s report said.

Council said the traffic survey report for the fourth quarter will be reported to the February 2021 Council meeting.

some more of their attention here to see if we can get the speed to the safer levels.”

Council’s report highlighted a range of actions that have been taken by quarry operators and Council to encourage better compliance with the speed limit, including quarterly reports being provided to police, with a detailed breakdown of speeding issues to encourage targeted enforcement.

“The police have now included Dulguigan Road in their regular patrols, targeting heavy vehicles,” Council said.

“Hy-Tec Quarry operators were provided with the report from the first and second quarter and responded by issuing flyers to all drivers to remind them of the 60km per hour speed limit.

“They have also issued warnings to drivers who have exceeded the speed limit during their daily audits.”

Council said a ‘variable message board’ was installed to highlight the truck speed limit for three weeks before it was vandalised and parts were stolen.

By Jonathon Howard MAYOR CHRIS Cherry has expressed “disappointment” following the release of the latest Dulguigan Road quarterly traffic and speed counter report compiled by Tweed Shire Council, with small trucks highlighted as “ignoring the 60km per hour truck speed limit”.

Councillors are set to discuss the latest report during their monthly meeting on Thursday, December 3.

The data reveals that small trucks remain the biggest speeding offenders, particularly class 3-5 vehicles under the Austroads 94 Vehicle Classification Scheme, which include two, three and four-axle trucks.

“This group is still the most noncompliant, with an 85th percentile 19km per hour over the speed limit,” Council’s report reads.

“The percentage of heavy vehicles (class 6 and over) more than 10km per hour over the speed limit has reduced from nine per cent last quarter to six per cent this quarter.”

Mayor Cherry said the figures show that “we still have quite a significant issue” with small trucks speeding on this road.

“It is really disappointing to see this continue, with nearly two thirds of drivers ignoring the 60km per hour truck speed limit and driving around 80km per hour instead,” she said.

“These speed restrictions are in place because of the danger identified in our Traffic Study for trucks trying to negotiate some of the turns at speed.

“They are there to protect our community and pedestrians or cyclists travelling along this road.

“If that is not enough to persuade drivers to do the right thing, we have now forwarded the speed results to the police and I believe they will now focus

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Can my ex get part of my lotto win?

I have separated from my spouse and while we are moving towards a divorce I bought a lottery ticket and won a million dollars. We have been living separate lives for almost 12 months and I bought the ticket with money I earned after we split.

So, do I have to tell my spouse about the win, and what does the law have to say about whether I have to include my winnings as part of the divorce settlement?

This is the sort of question family lawyers such as Simone Timbs of Stacks Law Firm sometimes have to answer.

“It’s the same as any assets you acquire during the relationship, be it marriage or a de facto partnership,” Ms Timbs said.

“Unless there is a pre-existing binding financial agreement signed by the couple – also known as a ‘pre-nup’ which can have problems – everything you have together as a couple is treated as part of the pool of assets when deciding a family law property settlement.

“It can be a lottery win, a sudden unexpected inheritance payment, even business windfalls – the answer is the same. Assets acquired after separation but before the property settlement generally are to be treated as an asset to be considered as part of the settlement,” Ms Timbs said.

But that word “generally” is important. There were three Family Court decisions which demonstrate the law isn’t absolute on this matter and each case can be weighed according to its own particular factors.

The first case a court dealt with this was Zyk v Zyk in 1995. The husband had won lottery as part of a syndicate he was in during the marriage. When they split, the court ruled there had been a joint effort in their finances, so the lottery win had to be shared.

In 1997, in the case of Brease, the couple were not married or living together when the female partner won almost half a million dollars in lotto.

She successfully argued that she bought the ticket with her money before they lived together, so she should keep it.

In another case the couple kept their finances separate during their time together. The husband won lotto with a ticket he bought and kept it in his account. He won, as the judge agreed the winnings were not the result of a joint endeavour.

Hospital works powering ahead but residents concerned

By Jo Kennett WORKS ON the new Tweed Valley Hospital are storming ahead, with the site on track to be up and running by 2023, according to Health Infrastructure, despite concerns from some residents that there is not enough funds allocated in this year’s budget.

A total of $72.1 million was allocated in 2020-21 budget for the “Tweed Hospital and Integrated Ambulatory Services Redevelopment” and a total cost of $673.3 million.

T h e We e k ly s p o ke t o H e a l t h Infrastructure who said the “Tweed Hospital” referred to in the budget is the new Tweed Valley Hospital.

There is $6 million allocated in this year’s budget for the car park, which was upgraded from an open park to a 10-storey car park with a budget of $50 million.

The new hospital build is due for completion in 2022, with hospital services moving “from the existing Tweed Hospital to the new hospital when it opens to patients in 2023,” according to Health Infrastructure NSW. Tweed District Residents & Ratepayers Association President Lindy Smith said she doesn’t see how the hospital can be completed in time “with the drip-feeding of the allocated funding”.

“It was to commence at the end of 2019 so we are already 12 months behind schedule,” Ms Smith said.

“The government is going to be in dire straits with the massive hit that they have taken with COVID to the NSW financial positions and I can’t see it being completed on schedule.

“We are possibly going to get to the next election in 2023 where there isn’t a new hospital ready to be open despite the promises made at the last election.

“Those promises have been made since 2007, then again at the 2011 election and the 2015, which were all about the redevelopment of the current hospital.”

Other residents expressed similar concerns about the amount of funding allocated this year.

A s p o ke s p e r s o n fo r H e a l t h Infrastructure NSW said more than $72 million is earmarked to be spent on the new Tweed Valley Hospital this financial year, “as set out in the 20/21 NSW budget.”

“The Cudgen site has already been transformed with heavy earthmoving equipment helping prepare for the beginning of main works which are set to get underway very soon,” the spokesperson said.

“The Tweed Valley Hospital and Integrated Ambulatory Services Redevelopment has a total budget of $673.3 million.

“This includes funding announced in May 2020 to deliver more beds and expanded clinical services.

“The $673.3 million will deliver a brand-new public hospital on a greenfield

By Jo Kennett P OT T S V I L L E LO C A L S we re surprised to see large boulders appear in the car parks between Pottsville and Wooyung, in an effort to stop illegal camping.

While some complained about the ‘fun police’, Tweed Shire Council are using the rocks to help address erosion, as well as campers leaving litter and lighting fires along the creek and in the sand dunes.

There have been numerous complaints made to Council in recent years after campers were banned from Byron Shire beaches, with many choosing to camp along the Tweed Coast instead.

Council’s Unit Coordinator of Sustainability and Environment, Jane Lofthouse, said the rocks have been placed in a number of areas identified as hotspots for illegal camping and informal parking.

“These rocks will help to prevent further erosion of creek banks by vehicles and reduce damage being caused to native vegetation and coastal bushland areas,” she said.

“This effort to prevent illegal camping is also in response to complaints from residents and supports the work of Council’s rangers.”

Team Leader of Council’s Rangers, Nic Harrigan, said illegal camping on public recreation and road reserves throughout the Tweed “cause significant amenity, public health and environmental impact issues.”

“We are currently clamping down on illegal overnight camping at a range of coastal and beach locations along the Tweed Coast, including Cabarita Beach, Chinderah, Fingal Head, Hastings Point, Kingscliff, Pottsville and Tweed Heads,” Mr Harrigan said.

“For more information on new parking restrictions which have been put in place to prevent overnight camping, visit www. tweed.nsw.gov.au/parking.”

Council recently erected signs prohibiting camping between 11pm and 5am in coastal car parks, upsetting some local residents, including fishermen, who want to be able to park near the beach to fish at night.

“The whole project will see the people of the Tweed and surrounding areas benefit from services including: emergency, trauma and critical care; medical and surgical care; women and newborns; cancer care; mental health; outpatients and community health services; and rests, x-rays and scans.

“Progressive funding for capital projects is incrementally distributed by NSW Treasury to NSW Health as part of the annual budget process, in the same way a prospective homeowner would pay a builder in staged payments.

The Tweed waterways play a key role in our environment and our community, and monitoring their health is an important role undertaken by Tweed Shire Council.

Council has released the 2020 Tweed Waterways Report, which is a summarised snapshot of water quality throughout the Tweed over the past 12 months.

The 2020 Tweed Waterways Report contains a water quality monitoring report card, and reveals some of the challenges in managing waterways and balancing economic activity, recreational use and environmental protection.

The report card covers the Shire from the freshwater tributaries to the coastal creeks, and explains how scores are achieved through monitoring.

This year’s report also looks at our use of the river over generations, how demands placed on the waterways have changed and what can be done to ensure the health of these systems into the future.

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

Another area that the report card highlights for poor water quality are the creeks that flow into 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.

Christmas is a great time of the year to share and help others through the annual Mayoral Christmas Appeal.

This year, the 2020 Mayoral Christmas Appeal is supporting three organisations: Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers, Fred’s Place and You Have a Friend.

Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers rescue and rehabilitate native fauna for return to their natural environment as well as advocating for conservation and welfare of our local wildlife.

You Have a Friend operates an opportunity shop in Tweed Heads, supports the homeless, single parents, their children and the marginalised. They provide 300 meals each week in the Tweed Heads/ Coolangatta area and also support farmers and families in drought.

You can donate items for Fred’s Place and You Have a Friend including non-perishable foods, toiletries, coffee/tea, sugar, longlife milk, cordial, ring pull cans, instant noodle cups, simple first aid products, washing powder, fabric softener and new clothing for men and women.

Hudson as my Deputy Chairperson and with new members, there is fresh enthusiasm to work towards objectives going forward,” Ms Sculley said.

Ms Sculley said the EAAC was gratified to be working with Council which has been very responsive to proposals and recommendations put forward.

“In many ways Tweed has been at the forefront of developing polices and delivering projects that allow people with disability to access places, services and information and participate in society,” she said.

Some of the significant achievements of the EAAC have included participating in education campaigns to raise awareness about the issues and barriers people with disability face and encouraging more inclusive businesses, providing feedback to Council about issues such as inaccessible bus stops, kerbs and ramps, designated accessible parking bays, public toilets, participating in access audits of various Council and community facilities and advising on ways to improve access to public areas, parks and facilities, and contributing to the development of Council’s Access and Inclusion Plan.

Ms Sculley said during the 22 years of operation, the Equal Access Advisory Committee had been able to provide of voice for those whose needs in the community may not have been heard.

“The International Day of People With Disabilities is a day where we can come together to celebrate the abilities of everyone – it is their day to shine,” Ms Sculley said.

In a year full of challenges, Karen Sculley accepts them all in her stride.

As Tweed Shire Council’s newly appointed Equal Access Advisory Committee (EAAC) chairperson, Ms Sculley is surprised but excited about her role in ensuring the Tweed remains at the forefront of accessibility.

The committee, which is celebrating its 22nd year, is preparing to celebrate the International Day of People With Disabilities on Thursday 3 December at the Tweed Heads Civic and Cultural Centre. The celebrations will unite past and present members at a COVID-Safe morning tea.

This year, due to COVID-19 restrictions, the celebrations have unfortunately had to be scaled down from previous years’ celebrations.

Sadly the pandemic has forced the postponement of the 2020 Access and Inclusion Awards.

However that hasn’t deterred Ms Sculley and the EAAC from continuing their outstanding work with Council to ensure the Tweed is an accessible and inclusive community.

Ms Sculley said the Committee was made up from a broad range of the community – from people living with experiences of disability to carers and also businesses in the disability sector. She brings her own experience as the mother of Kyle, 20, who lives with cerebral palsy and also serves on the Committee.

“There is a lot of experience from those who have served on the committee for many years. I am very fortunate to have Suzy

New parking restrictions have come into effect at a range of locations including Wooyung, Cabarita Beach, Chinderah, Fingal Head, Hastings Point, Kingscliff, Pottsville and Tweed Heads between the hours of 11pm and 5am.

Responding to complaints from local residents, the new restrictions target beachside and river locations, assisting in preventing public health, amenity and environmental issues often caused by illegal campers and drivers sleeping in vehicles overnight.

Team Leader Rangers Nicholas Harrigan said there was a significant increase in illegal camping relating activity and other anti-social behaviour during the holiday season.

“These new measures are similar to approaches taken by other Councils in the area and haven proven to be an effective deterrent to those choosing to do the wrong thing,” Mr Harrigan said.

“With the assistance of Tweed Heads Police, Rangers have commenced issuing infringement notices during after-hours patrols that has seen a significant decrease in overnight parking at some coastal locations,” he said.

Bloke blows more than five times legal limit “A 53-year-old male from Burleigh Heads exited the vehicle and appeared to be allegedly affected by intoxicating liquor or drugs,” police said.

“The male was subject to a roadside breath test which returned a positive reading. He was arrested for the purpose of a breath analysis and conveyed to the Tweed Heads Police Station where a breath analysis returned a reading of 0.259.”

The man’s licence was suspended and is due to front Tweed Heads Local Court on Monday, December 14, on charges for highrange drink driving and failing to stop.

By Jonathon Howard A 53-YEAR-OLD Burleigh Heads man was busted driving at more than five times the legal limit at Banora Point on Saturday, November 28.

Police officers noticed a white Ford ute attempting a U-turn at the intersection of Laura Street and Sextons Hill Drive around 3.30am.

“As the vehicle was trying to execute the turn, the wheels have mounted the median strip and the driver appeared to be having some trouble carrying out the manoeuvre,” police said.

Police attempted to pull the vehicle over, however the driver refused to stop and a pursuit was initiated.

Police chased the man south on Sextons Hill Drive, nearly colliding with a median strip at the intersection of Terranora Road, before coming to a stop just prior to the entrance to the Pacific Motorway.

Warning as Tweed cops target COVID breaches to normal,” Cabarita Beach SLSC treasurer Rosemary Fisher said.

“We can have more, as long as people remain seated, children as well, maintain social distancing and don’t move seats without asking.

“We want to keep our bar prices down and if it wasn’t for our volunteer COVID marshalls – we have about 25 – we wouldn’t be able to open at all.”

Tweed/Byron Police District Commander, Superintendent Dave Roptell, said venues need to be aware of their responsibilities in maintaining a COVID-safe environment.

“Our specialised licensing police will continue to conduct business inspections and compliance checks throughout the entire ‘Schoolies’ and ‘Summer Safe’ operations, to ensure venues have their COVID-safety plans up-to-date and are doing their bit to protect the Northern NSW community,” Supt Roptell said.

Police continue to appeal to the community to report suspected breaches of any ministerial direction, or behaviour which may impact on the health and safety of the community.

A Byron Bay restaurant was recently fined $5,000 for an alleged breach of Ministerial Directions under the Public Health Act.

84421

By Jo Kennett TWEED SHIRE business customers are being asked to cooperate with staff to ensure COVID safety regulations are met, as police target local businesses.

The plea comes in the wake of reports that one Tweed Shire venue received significant fines for two breaches and a major club was also fined as part of Operation Summer Safe 2020.

Licensing police from the Northern Region are running ‘Operation Summer Safe 2020’ and will be assessing venues’ compliance with current Public Health Orders.

As many hospitality business managers have discovered, it can be difficult to keep patrons seated in venues, particularly children, and parents are being asked to help comply with the rules.

Cabarita Beach Surf Life Saving Club (SLSC) fundraising officer and COVID marshall Julie Cummings said, “people need to be responsible for the places they visit.”

“We don’t know if COVID is eliminated,” she said.

“We want to make people happy and to have a good time in our establishment.

“That starts at the front door with hello and sanitising your hands, before signing in online or with your phone; we can’t have paperwork anymore.

“With COVID you have to stick to the rules and everyone has to be COVID safe.

“All families, including children must be seated.”

Restrictions have eased as of December 1, with one person allowed per two square metres inside a venue.

“Before we could have 53 people on the deck and 33 inside but now it’s almost back

New businesses spark up along Tweed Coast in time for summer

By Jo Kennett AS THE country emerges from the latest COVID crisis and with the Queensland border reopening on Tuesday, December 1, the Tweed Coast is undergoing a rebirth of its own with a number of new businesses opening in time for summer.

Wes and Sarah Seamen have just opened Pottsville Village Meats in Coronation Street, next to the IGA, and business is already booming, with gourmet meats, free range eggs and a range of condiments and speciality goods for sale.

“We live in Sleepy Hollow and it was by chance that when the Meat Merchant at Casuarina sold up, I was left without a job and the shop here was vacant, so it was a good opportunity,’” Wes told The Weekly.

“On the second day after we opened people were walking in and applauding and saying how great it was to have a butcher back in town.

“We specialise in fresh food with free range quality products, a range of pastries, condiments and even fresh flowers.

“We’ve had a lot of support business and work-wise and we’ve brought three other butchers from Casuarina.

“I know them and how they work, and you get really good customer service, and that’s why I chose them.

In my eyes they’re the best.”

Pottsville Village Meats is open 6am to 6pm Monday to Friday and 6am to 4pm Saturday and Sunday.

The Black Drop Cafe has opened around the corner in Phillip Street where Pottsville Pantry used to be.

It’s another business getting great customer reviews, with some patrons saying they have the best coffee on the coast, and others calling the food “mind-blowingly good”.

“We have locally sourced food and we have a super creative chef, Andy Mac, who is essentially a magician in the kitchen,” Emily Hayes, who runs the cafe with James Attard, said.

“We are absolutely passionate about high quality local ingredients done really well. We have a new menu coming in early December.

“We are creative in all our meals, and we want every customer to feel like it’s a special experience every time they come in the door, and they feel welcomed and loved whether they are just having a coffee or a longer lunch.

“We have Blackboard Coffee which is high quality single origin coffee, as well as filter coffee and cold brew batch brews.

“Check out our Instagram page and you can see some of our specials and get an idea about what we are doing” The Black Drop Cafe is open seven days a week from 7am to 2pm.

Eclectic at Caba has opened after renovations of the former Marty’s at Caba site in the main street.

“We’ve owned the building for 35 years and were the first pizza place in Caba with the Cabarita Cantina,” Jeff Johnson said.

“We built the motel there, the Anglers Inn and had the pizza shop on the side, and there was nothing else on this side of the road except Heathers – Heather Johansen’s shop that had a bit of everything.

Wes Seamen has just opened Pottsville Village Meats. Inset is Reanna Blake and Amy Wilkin at Brew & Bake co Kingscliff

“We helped build the old servo.

We had Mexican food and then we started the pizza shop.”

Eclectic is a gourmet pizza bar with tapas, a good wine menu and Stone and Wood on tap.

“We also have things like eggplant parmigana, spaghetti with tiger prawns, aracini balls and a grommie menu with really good meatballs, salads that can be served as mains, and for desert we have key lime jars, tiramisu and apple pie,” Jeff said.

“We have a lot of great new places opening up across the road as well

like Nectar, Rita’s Place and The Burrow, so it’s really going off.”

Kingscliff ’s Brew & Bake Co, next to Boardwalk Books in Marine Parade, combines the baking brilliance of Amy Wilkin with Reanna Blake’s perfect coffee obsession.

The girls are “high school besties” with Amy having spent her life in Tumbulgum and Reanna most her adult life on the Tweed Coast.

“The Brew & Bake Co is the perfect place for beach and park goers to pick up a quality cup of locally roasted coffee alongside a house-

made treat, toastie or a custom made cake for those special occasions,” Reanna told The Weekly.

The cafe features 100-year-old railway sleepers that the girls and their team of helpers worked hard to transform into a beautiful countertop.

Brew & Bake Co is open from 6am to 1.30pm weekdays and 2pm on weekends, and is closed on Tuesdays.

Darbaar Indian at Salt Village is also garnering great reviews from locals, with some calling it the best authentic Indian food they have ever eaten.

“We know that exercise is excellent for our bodies and minds and this group is also about connecting young people.

“The youth involved are getting along really well and putting a lot of effort into the training, and as a result getting a lot out of it.”

Training has been donated by One Health, with Jared deThiery and Harley Peachey providing most of the expertise.

“We are doing general strength and conditioning training for juniors aged 13-17,” Jared told The Weekly.

“We are encouraging kids to be active and what better way to start the day before school.

“It’s a great initiative and a pleasure to be a part of this awesome program.”

The program is open to anyone 13 years and over, with parental consent required for anyone under 15. Bookings are essential.

By Jo Kennett CABARITA YOUTH Service (CYS) has teamed up with local personal trainers in a new youth fitness program and there are still places available.

CYS is providing pick-ups from Pottsville, Cabarita and Casuarina around 6am, with training starting at 6.30am that runs for an hour for a gold coin donation.

Casuarina Beach Rugby Club have provided their venue free of charge with a hearty breakfast provided by CYS volunteers after training.

CYS then provides free-drop off to Kingscliff High School and St Joseph’s College Banora Point.

“This program was developed to encourage young people to start the day with physical exercise and remove some of the traditional barriers such as transport and cost,” Youth Worker Leah Cranston said.

The latest RV craze hits the Tweed River Pencil Tree spring sale

Aquatic recreational vehicles have arrived in Tweed - but what about the price tag!

months taking us from Yarrawonga to the salt water at Goolwa.

“We had so much fun fronting up to little towns and villages and finding the friendliest people and pubs, and navigating our way around hundreds of collapsed riverside gums just as the old paddle steamers had.

“We fished, had riverside campfires and overnight stops in the most amazing spots, and had experienced the terror of our first lock experience and travelling below the majestic red cliffs in South Australia.”

On land, the Locheads have travelled as far north as Cooktown, crossing on the ferry at Cape Tribulation along the way, and as far south as the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia.

“Driving along the cliff tracks of Elliston was memorable,” he said.

“Our best experience without doubt was a recent trip, staying in Coongul Creek on Fraser Island by night and whale watching during the days on our own craft.”

about nurturing students in their giftings

Earlier this year, the ARVO group met for the first time, with ten boats exploring, wining and dining the entire length of the Clarence River.

“Inspired by that and with the suitability of the Northern Rivers being obvious, the Tweed River and valley became a popular pick for our next big outing,” Mr Lochead said.

“I was interested to learn that very few of this group would describe themselves as boaties.

“Most gained their boat licence after they bought their ARV and learned the ropes from there.

“We had several different models in our flotilla last week – boatahomes made on the Sunshine Coast, caraboats from Lemon Tree Passage and even a Campercraft Explorer, one of our newest members.”

Unfortunately, for everyone dreaming of getting one, they come with a relatively hefty price tag, with most of the latest models selling for around $140,000.

By Jo Kennett THE PENCIL Tree is having a big summer sale at Cabarita this Saturday, December 5, to raise funds for water, food and education to support slum children in northern India.

Founder Steve Bellamy said the local community has been a huge support to the children and he is hoping to see them come out again this weekend.

“Our aim is to raise funds to purchase water purifiers for the 12 remote schools in the foothills of the Indian Himalayas that we support,” he told The Weekly “Over 600 children will have access to clean drinking water.

“Food for the slum dwellers during this COVID period is also of major concern.

“The school will be needing new equipment in the new year as well, and some of the government schools that we support are in desperate need of whiteboards and teaching aids.”

Steve said there will be something for everyone at the sale, with plenty of brand new items.

“We have had a heap of brand new items donated to us, discontinued stock etc,” he said.

“We have new t-shirts by Von Zipper, Element and Golden Breed, plus sandals and dresses by Billabong .

“We have new headsets, and Chinese lanterns, and artwork suitable for kids rooms, all brand new, and a new range of Pencil Tree t-shirts and calico tote bags will be available to purchase on the day.

“We will also have several unique hand-painted chairs and other odds and ends that have been given to help raise money.

“We will also be accepting any surplus Ooshies which we will take with us for the children.”

The Pencil Tree Summer Sale is on this Saturday, December 5, at 126 Hastings Road, Cabarita Beach, from 8am to 12pm.

By Jo Kennett IF YOU happened to see a flotilla of strange-looking boats in the Tweed River or Jack Evans Boat Harbour last week, you might have wondered what they heck you were looking at.

Bilambil Heights’ Tony Lochead contacted The Weekly about the ARVs (aquatic recreational vehicle), which he described as, “trailerable craft that double as an incredibly comfortable and attractive caravan with heaps of light and internal space when on the road, but take them off their trailer and they are an equally comfortable and capable watercraft.”

“There is no need for a powered site in a caravan park as they all have an onboard toilet and shower, a complete kitchen – some even with ovens, one or two double beds and even external awnings,” Mr Lochead told The Weekly.

“On water, they have been designed predominantly for protected waterways – rivers, estuaries etc – but they are able to do more than that “Most have very shallow drafts, usually between 80 and 120mm and powered by twin 30hp or single 60hp engines, as a minimum they are capable of planing with a top speed commonly between 15 and 22 knots.

“Other routine luxuries abound, including electronic navigation aids, electric anchor winch, outdoor shower, barbecue and heaps of storage.”

Mr Lochead started up the owners group, ARVOs, “to have outings with others and to promote this wonderful lifestyle.”

“My wife Lin and I have had ours for almost three years and just love the life it creates,” he said.

Roundabout Cafe set for grand reopening

By Jonathon Howard THE MUCH-LOVED Roundabout Cafe at 237 Tweed Valley Way is set to be given a new lease on life, with a new owner at the helm with a passion for good food and a vision for the future.

Lesley Caron Anstey has recently purchased the property and has a vision that includes creating a venue with a liquor licence and breathing new life into the cafe’s menu.

She also plans to reopen the outdoor seating on the Tweed River, as well as selling gift packs and hampers r.

Mrs Anstey is planning a grand opening on Sunday, December 13, and will provide free samples for locals and visitors to try.

“We’re planning our grand opening to have free food for everyone on Sunday, December 13, so make sure you get down for a feed and check it out,” she said.

“We’re really looking forward to welcoming some of those old customers back and making a few new ones as we go.”

Mrs Anstey has led an extraordinary life as a registered nurse who has seen more than her fair share of hard work.

She also has a lot of knowledge about the Tweed Shire and loves the local area.

“I also used to be a foodie in two past lives with two ex-husbands,” she said with a smile.

“So, I do know how to make good food and coffee. I’m also a very good businessperson and humble too.”

Mrs Anstey is supported by her third husband, who she said is footing the bills and has been “very supportive”.

“He’s a builder/developer who studied architecture many moons ago and he also understands the happy wife motto,” she said with her signature smile.

Road Series showcases Tweed

By Jonathon Howard AFTER A nine-month hiatus, the National Road Series (NRS) got underway on Saturday, November 28, and will wrap up on Sunday, December 6, in a gruelling nine-day tour of the Tweed Shire that’s been a boon for local businesses.

Some of Australia’s hottest up-and-coming talent were among hundreds of riders and teams visiting the Tweed.

Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said the event w was a win for local businesses.

Mr Provest, who is also the Parliamentary Secretary for Tourism and Major Events, said the AusCycling event features a mix of road races, criteriums and time trials, which will decide the overall winner of Australia’s National Road Series, run by NX Sports Community Foundation.

“This event will bring hundreds of cyclists and visitors into the Tweed, injecting much-needed dollars into the pockets of local hotels, restaurants and shops, boosting the state’s economy at this critical time,” Mr Provest said.

“Our focus is on recovery and that means getting local businesses back on their feet, and I’m delighted that the NSW Government, via its tourism and major events agency Destination NSW, will be supporting the 2020 National Road Series National Tour.

“Our spectacular scenery will also be on show to those at home, with the event broadcast via SBS television across the nine days.”

Race Director Mike Crawley said it was great to have the support of the NSW Government and Tweed Shire Council.

“It’s been nine months since an NRS event was last held, so we’re extremely grateful to be able to proceed with the National Road Series National Tour this year, which will bring the Australian cycling community back to the wonderful Tweed to determine this year’s champion team,” he said.

For more information, go to www.nationalroadseries.com

Roundabout Cafe owner Lesley Anstey is gearing up for a grand reopening soon

Mrs Anstey also revealed that she has only discovered this year that she was adopted.

“I’m 67 and found out this year that I was adopted and illegitimate,” she said.

“Hoping to find mum before Christmas, but it could be wishful thinking.”

Community works together for beach safety

Joan’s legacy at Gumnut Community Preschool endures after she passed away this year

Joan leaves lasting legacy

By Jonathon Howard FORMER GUMNUT Community Preschool director Joan Bridgham passed away on Wednesday, July 29 this year, leaving a legacy of more than three decades at her beloved preschool.

Joan’s family and friends, as well as some of the preschool staff, will come together at the Gumnut Community Preschool site in Burringbar on Saturday, December 12, at 11am to celebrate her life.

Joan poured her heart and soul in the Gumnut Community Preschool, which she said following her retirement in December 2013 was her life’s work.

“I will miss it. I know I will have withdrawals when I go,” Joan said just prior to retirement.

“It has been such a pleasure working with the families in the area and to see the children of children who attended previously come through as well.

“This is so much more than a job, it is my life’s work and it has been a real journey.

“When I go home it’s not like I shut off, I worry about the kids and everything going on with them as if they were part of my family.”

Before taking up the position of director at Gumnut Community Preschool, Joan had worked for six years at another preschool in Murwillumbah.

Close friend of Joan, Wendy Warren recently provided The Weekly with some background information on Joan, who she described as a caring soul with a heart of gold.

“She will be sorely missed by the community and she’s in my thoughts often,” Ms Warren said.

“Joan was born on May 29, 1948, at the old Murwillumbah Hospital site which is now Sunnyside Mall.

“Her parents were Ronald and Ailsa Akehurst (deceased) who lived at Doon Doon, before moving to Murwillumbah,” she said.

“Joan had an older brother, Ian (dec) and a younger sister, Dianne. She had three children, Corina, Larry and Cindy and nine grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.”

By Jo Kennett A LOCAL men’s shed has been hard at work to help Cabarita Beach Surf Life Saving Club (SLSC) prepare for Christmas fundraising.

Treasurer of Cabarita Beach SLSC, Rosemary Fisher, said they reached out to the Pottsville and District Men’s Shed to help build a large Christmas stocking to use as a backdrop for the club’s Christmas raffle.

“The Men’s Shed donated their time and materials and came up with the goods,” Rosemary said.

“The Surf Club fundraising committee added the decorations.”

The Men’s Shed project team said they enjoyed working on the project.

“We have also assisted the surf club in the past with sanding and refinishing timber tables, and we look forward to working with the club on future projects,” a spokesperson said.

The surf club’s fundraising coordinator Julie Cummings said it will help the club to promote its annual Christmas raffle.

“People are welcome to come up to the club to purchase tickets in the Christmas raffle,” Julie said.

“Tickets will be sold at our club and also at various Pottsville and Cabarita Beach locations.”

Cabarita Beach SLSC media coordinator Stephen Duffield said when the flags are up, “our volunteers perform surveillance, maintain a safe swimming area, monitor shark alarm, identify rips, complete stinger sweeps, and apply first aid when needed.”

“Our volunteers need the support of the community, together with club fundraising to maintain our safety equipment,” Stephen said.

Cabarita Beach SLSC is open from 11.30am to 8pm Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with live music Sunday afternoons from 3pm to 6pm, COVID restrictions in place.

For more information about club fundraising activities, contact Julie Cummings the fundraising coordinator via email: fundraising@ cabaslsc.org.au, by phone (02) 6076 1557, or Stephen Duffield media coordinator: media@ cabaslsc.org.au or mobile: 0421 052 135.

CHILLINGHAM COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION The Chillingham Community Association is based at the Chillingham Community Centre at Numinbah Road, Chillingham.

Their primary aim is to enrich the local community. The Community Centre receives no government or Council support for its day-to-day running costs. These are raised through the efforts of its members and volunteers.

Members said they were “very grateful” for the ITV grant in November last year to replace the derelict ceiling in the centre’s kitchen.

“We employed a local tradesman/builder to complete the job, which provided work for the local community, while a few Association members assisted with the painting and tidying up,” a spokesperson for the centre said.

“The result was very pleasing, the kitchen is now more hygienic and looks great.”

BURRINGBAR SCHOOL OF ARTS/ BURRINGBAR HALL The ITV Community Grant enabled the hall’s committee to purchase a new stove that continues to provide an income source for the heritage hall.

The Burringbar Hall is more than 100 years old and is a wonderful heritage venue for weddings, reunions, functions, musicals and stage productions. The hall is available to hire for an hour or a weekend. Cooking classes with renowned Chef Belinda Jeffery are held on a regular basis. The hall also provides weekly classes of yoga, self defence, dance and art classes, as well as a commercial kitchen available for hire.

Make Christmas an arts affair at Banora Point

By Jonathon Howard THE FAMOUS Christmas Fair at Tweed Unlimited Arts (TUA), at Banora Point, will open on Saturday and Sunday, December 5 and 6, in what’s expected to be a must-see event this year.

TUA president Louise Hill said the fair will offer a collective of more than 200 makers of art and crafts from 9am to 4pm.

“This COVID-safe event will showcase a variety of original, handmade works from local painters, potters, spinners, weavers and crafters, including felting, crochet and handmade cards,” she said.

“The fun weekend will entertain young and old, with demonstrations of arts, crafts, handbuilt pottery and wheel throwing, as well as appearances from friendly alpacas for the kids.”

Ms Hill said light refreshments will be available along with a $2 lucky dip basket and a pottery bargain table.

“Get a ticket in the Christmas raffle to win a basket of full of gourmet Christmas treats,” she said.

“TUA is forever grateful for the continued support of the Tweed Shire Council and would like to recognise the NSW Government Regional Cultural Fund for grants which have enabled the potters to buy a new kiln, provided the spinners and weavers with a new cottage kitchen, and assisted with ongoing maintenance and repairs to the over 100-yearold buildings.”

Ms Hill said this year’s fair was not to be missed.

“Come and meet the artists, enjoy browsing the galleries and discover beautiful handmade treasures,” she said.

Wollumbin Dreaming have a great range of ideas for Chistmas this year

By Jonathon Howard MURWILLUMBAH DISTRICT Business Chamber president Nick Moran is calling on locals and visitors to save some of their Christmas shopping for the Twilight Shopping event in Murwillumbah’s CBD on Friday, December 18, and join in the festivities.

More than 30 businesses have now signed up to remain open for shoppers from 4pm to 8pm in what could be the biggest event of the year for the CBD. The Murwillumbah Chamber has teamed up with Murwillumbah’s self-appointed Christmas elf Sarah Vale who owns Ocean Air Massage Therapies.

Ms Vale said she was keen to promote new businesses this festive season, as well as encouraging shoppers to join the Twilight Shopping event on Friday, December 18.

“Every Tuesday until Christmas I’m joining The Weekly to walk around the main street to spread some Christmas cheer and promote some new businesses,” she said.

“This week we visited Wollumbin Dreaming, which is owned by Nathan Falk.

“We also visited Devoted to Flowers with Cass Prentice and her adorable dog Teddy.

“Both these businesses are a great asset to the community, and I’d urge residents to pay them a visit.”

Mr Moran said it was important shoppers think local this Christmas.

“There will be opportunities for everyone to eat, drink, and be merry, and of course to shop for that perfect gift,” Mr Moran said.

“I challenge people to only buy from local stores, and even better locally produced gifts where possible.

“There are some amazing shops and producers in Murwillumbah and the villages, and giving a gift produced here in the Tweed Shire makes that gift even more special, particularly for friends and family that live outside the region.”

Mr Moran said he wanted to encourage residents to save their Christmas shopping for December 18.

“And make the most of what is going to be a great night of festive cheer,” he said.

The event includes food stalls, a shopping spree prize and Christmas window display competition.

Riverbank partnership is working wonders

By Jonathon Howard AN INNOVATIVE partnership between cattle farmers, Tweed Landcare and OzFish Tweed River Chapter, is working wonders on a portion of the Tweed riverbank to bring back vital fish habitats including the renowned Australian Bass.

The partnership on the Tweed River, near Byangum and its canoe launching point, is a big undertaking with weed removal and planting of more than 1,000 trees along their riparian zone and fencing it to keep the cattle out.

OzFish and Landcare NSW partnership to deliver improved fish habitat in NSW has achieved close to one million dollars of habitat restoration work in its first twelve months.

With an initial investment from the NSW Recreational Fishing Trusts of $200,000, the two groups have attracted an additional $330,000 cash investment and more than $500,000 in-kind support into fish habitat restoration work for the state’s inland rivers and coastal waterways.

The partnership focuses on local groups coming together to determine their waterway’s fish habitat needs and to take action to improve it.

Under the guidance from the OzFish team, groups devised a range of projects including, re-snagging, trash racks, re-planting, fish monitoring, weeding, fencing and clean-ups.

OzFish’s director of habitat programs Cassie Price, said there are now 14,300 more trees along NSW riverbanks that will provide shade and stable water temperatures, insect fall and eventually snags for fish.

“Sixty more snags in our rivers installed which will provide instant homes, shelter and food for fish, along with 30km of riverbank weeded, cleaned up and restored. Plus a trash rack stopping litter, eight engagement events, and a search for a lost fish in Sydney,” she said.

Landcare NSW CEO Adrian Zammit agreed, “Landcare NSW is thrilled to see this partnership deliver such amazing results for NSW. The results delivered so far are clear evidence that NRM challenges require close collaboration and partnerships between likeminded organisations.”

The project was made possible with funding support from the NSW Recreational Fishing Trusts and BCF Boating Camping and Fishing.

If you would like to know more about the project or get involved become a member of OzFish online at www.ozfish.org.au or contact 1800 431 308.

Payne (left) dominating in his first professional fight

Payne takes next big step in boxing career

By Jonathon Howard KINGSCLIFF RISING boxing talent, Ty Payne (1-0) has taken the next big step in his career after his successful first fight and signing with Australian promoter Tony Tolj.

Campaigning at Super Lightweight, Payne, 19, said he has more than 100 fights as an amateur and has been boxing since he was 12 years old.

“Since then, it has been my dream to become a professional and win a world title,” he said.

“My work ethic is second to none and with the right management and people around me, I have no doubt I can go all the way.”

Mr Tolj said Payne was a “good kid with bags of potential”.

“And I’m delighted to welcome him to our team. We can achieve as much as he wants in the sport, he’s got a great heart and character, as well as being a talented fighter,” he said.

Payne has already achieved monumental amateur success in Australia winning The Australian National Championships in 2015; Queensland and New South Wales State titles in 2016; Interstate title in 2017 and the Clarence Valley Title in 2018.

He also made his professional debut last year with a second-round knockout in his native NSW. Soon to make his second professional outing in Queensland on Friday, December 18.

In a media statement Payne’s promoter said his inspirations come in the form of Roy Jones Jr, Canelo Alvarez and new stablemates Andrew and Jason Moloney “looking to emulate these champions to go on and claim his own silverware in the future”.

“The experienced boxing manger adds Ty Payne to his talented and ever-growing stable which boasts the likes of Andrew and Jason Moloney having also worked with the likes of Chris John in the past,” a statement from the promoter said.

C E L E B R AT I N G S E N O R S Legal firm wants ban on carers being powers of attorney

Don't fall for scams

TWEED SHIRE seniors are being urged to be on the lookout for scams and scammers this Christmas, with scumbags looking to take advantage of our elderly residents through cunning methods.

Whether it’s a strange phone call with a recorded voice or even someone at your front door attempting to sell you something, scams come in many forms.

The Tweed/Byron Police District’s Crime Prevention Unit is raising the community’s awareness of scams during the festive season, with scammers often asking residents to buy iTunes cards or other gift cards.

“Please don’t purchase iTunes cards or gift cards as payment for alleged fines if someone claims you have a warrant for your arrest,” Tweed Police said.

If you think you are being scammed, or if you are just not sure, simply hang up or tell the person you are going to check with the police first. It might save you money and a lot of grief.

If you have any concerns or need help phone Tweed Police on (07) 5506 9499.

Maurice Blackburn is calling for the State Government to introduce a safeguard on carers becoming powers of attorney to protect vulnerable elderly

“Giving a paid carer power over the affairs of the vulnerable person they are paid to look after is, in our view, a dangerous blurring of professional and personal lines that increases the risk of financial abuse.

“We know there have been cases where a paid carer holding a person’s power of attorney has misused that power for their own benefit, such as taking money, transferring assets and incurring debt.

“We acknowledge the vast majority of paid carers do incredible work in looking after older and more vulnerable people

in our community. But unfortunately, there will always be some who will exploit that position of trust for personal gain.

“We welcome Queensland’s move to tighten restrictions around the use of paid carers as powers of attorney, and we call on all states and territories to follow Queensland and Victoria’s lead to help protect our elderly from abuse.”

Mr Simpson said if a person did not have any family or close friends they trusted to be a power of attorney, they could appoint an independent public trustee company in that role.

By Jonathon Howard AUSTRALIAN LAW firm Maurice Blackburn is urging the NSW Government to consider introducing rules to ban paid carers from being used as powers of attorney, describing it as an “important safeguard against elder abuse”.

The push comes as new laws took effect in Queensland on November 30, that says a person cannot be appointed as your enduring power of attorney if they have been a paid carer for you within the past three years.

In a media statement, Maurice Blackburn said besides Queensland, Victoria is the only other state with laws that prohibit a paid carer from being appointed as your enduring power of attorney, but the Victorian rule only applies to current paid carers.

“An enduring power of attorney is a legal document in which a person appoints someone to make important financial and personal decisions on their behalf. The power continues if and when the person is unable to make decisions on their own,” the law firm said.

National head of wills and estates at Maurice Blackburn, Andrew Simpson, said there was considerable trust invested in an enduring power of attorney, and any breach of that trust could have significant consequences.

“A power of attorney is one of the most important documents you’ll ever make. If you lose capacity, that person will potentially have complete control over all decisions relating to you and your affairs,” he said.

YOU KNOW...

You can easily transfer Homeprovider Care Package services from one approved provider to another?

Do you need support to stay at home?

By St John Volunteer Trainer Fay Gleave LAST WEEK I wrote about heat-related problems, but I forgot to mention sunburn.

At some stage in our lives we have all suffered from sunburn, it is caused by overexposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays.

Most sunburn is superficial with reddening of the skin and is painful, but in severe cases the skin maybe turn ‘lobster’ red, become painful and blister.

The eyes can also be burnt by overexposure to sunlight and may feel gritty and painful.

When I was a young girl, we did not know about ‘slip, slop, slap’ and we used to go out into the sun without a hat and without sunscreen.

In fact, a trip to the beach meant that you covered yourself in baby oil to ensure you got a good tan, and as a result in later life, we have to deal with skin cancer in many different places.

Do you know what slip, slop, slap and slurp means?

Slip on protective clothing that can be a barrier between the sun and your skin.

Slop on sunscreen.

Slap on a hat.

And in more recent years slurp, seek and slide have been added to ensure people drink enough water, seek shade and slide on some sunnies.

How to manage sunburn

Rest the patient and place them under a cold shower for about 20 minutes or sponge with cold water.

Apply cool gauze to the burnt area after cooling and give cool drinks.

Seek medical aid for small babies and patients with blisters.

If the patient is badly sunburnt with many blisters, cool with a cold shower, do not break blisters and do not put soothing cream over the area as the doctor will need to see the depth of the burnt area and the cream will have to be removed.

For sunburnt eyes, cover with a cool moist dressing to cool them and to keep the light out. Reassure the patient and seek medical aid.

C E L E B R AT I N G S E N O R S Grandma’s Hands

A poem by Paddy O’Brien The flower’s wilting slowly now since God took her away.

That’s Grandma’s room across the hall, She’d often come and stay

They tied the laces of my shoes, They held your mum at birth, They helped to grow the food we ate That came from Mother Earth.

Grandma was a gentle soul, The Priest gave final prayer.

Her peace with God is now complete It left her spirit there.

They washed my face and combed my hair, They nursed a knee so sore.

Gave your Grandfather comfort too When he came home from war.

Her rocking chair draped with a shawl That kept her from the cold, Remembered years when just a kid I heard her stories told.

They shook with anger many times To ward off neighbours’ scorn.

They laid the wreath for broken hearts A baby was stillborn.

One story touched me deeply then Its memory ever stands, She smiled and gently told me The stories of her hands.

They folded clothes and washed and ironed, They hid my face from shame.

They cuddled and supported those Who bravely took the blame.

With lines so soft that once were strong A Mother and a Wife With hands widespread and eyes transfixed These hands made tools of life.

But most importantly of all When time for me to go Then God will take me in His Hands When angels call, I know.

They stopped my fall when as a child They sought my Mother’s care, They dried the tears when Daddy died Steeped deep in fervent prayer.

Then Grandma gently held my hand With nothing more to say, With aging eyes and glowing smile She wiped my tears away.

Wore the ring that said ‘I love you’ They held his hand that day.

They picked a rose and comfort gave When lonely skies were grey.

I know she’s surely resting now, Those stories I love best.

Her hands are now so softly pressed In peace across her chest.

Cooly Rec Club reopens with active program lived, world-travelled charmers: Edward Marchwicki (Table Tennis Ted) and William Lawler (Billy Blue Shoes).

Ted and Billy’s dance cards were full as they were sweeping the ladies off their feet in New Vogue Sequence dancing to wonderful live music by Glen Shepherd!

Channel 9 News were there to capture the magic moment and the celebrations will continue when the men return to the centre for their activities, as these lively lads both now hold Honorary Life Memberships at the Cooly Rec Club.

What a bustling centre the Cooly Rec Club has become over the 43 years the club has been open to seniors.

Well, the doors have now of�icially reopened and numerous activities are underway under a COVID safe plan, with more activities in the pipeline to return in 2021.

It was so wonderful when the club got the all-clear to start operating again in late October and elected a new committee as well as appointing two centre coordinators on a job-share position to return the centre into the buzzing place it once was.

For the �irst time since its beginnings the centre plan an Indigenous Smoking Ceremony before their annual AGM to invoke new positive and unifying energy while members entered the building.

They even had a very festive 100th birthday celebration recently for two of its members – the very handsome, well-

Avoid contact with flying foxes says Public Health Young Tweed veterans grant opens

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE residents are being reminded to avoid handling or touching injured or dead flying foxes and microbats, as bats may be more active and can risk exposing residents to viruses, according to the North Coast Public Health Unit (NCPHU).

Large numbers of bat deaths usually occur following heatwaves, or when they are unable to find enough food.

Bats can carry a number of viruses, including Australian bat lyssavirus, that can be very dangerous to humans if bitten or scratched. It should be noted there have been no lyssavirus cases among NSW residents in the past four years.

NCPHU director Paul Corben said you should not attempt to handle an injured or distressed flying fox or microbat.

Residents are encouraged to call Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers if they find a stricken flying fox by phoning: (02) 6672 4789.

“You may put yourself at risk, and also cause more harm to the bat. So, call your local authorised wildlife rehabilitation group or a local veterinarian,” Mr Corben said.

“If you must touch a dead bat, avoid directly handling it. Use a shovel or other implement and wear thick gloves to pick up the dead bat and dispose of its body by deep burial.

“You should only handle flying foxes or microbats if you have been trained by a reputable wildlife organisation, vaccinated against lyssaviruses and use appropriate protective equipment.”

If you or your children are bitten or scratched by a flying fox or microbat, you should immediately wash the affected area thoroughly with soap and water, apply an antiseptic such

Renowned documentary by locals to screen at The Regent

By Jonathon Howard AWARD-WINNING DOCUMENTARY The Power of Sound Egypt will screen at The Regent Theatre on Saturday, December 5, followed by a live Q&A with the local producers.

Following the international success of the first Power of Sounds Africa, local producers Mark Robertson of Mullumbimby and Chris Liddell of Uki village, said they are pleased to bring their epic journey into the mysteries of ancient Egypt to the Tweed Valley’s big screen.

The film has garnered high praise internationally and a range of awards, including being named the winner of Best Cinematography in a Documentary at the World Music & Independent Film Festival in the US this year.

“Deep-diving past the veneers of translation and interpretation, the Power of Sound Egypt offers insight and revelation direct from the matriarchal wisdom-keepers and indigenous peoples of the Giza Plateau, Nile Valley and Nubian lands, along with Khemitian researchers, Sufi mystic musicians, Egyptologists and sound healing practitioners,” Mr Liddell said.

“Enter the ancient pyramids and temple complexes along the Nile and feel the wonder as layers of history are peeled back to reveal a new perspective of the advanced high culture of pre-Egypt and their relationship to sound and consciousness in this dynamic cinematic experience.”

Tickets to the event are $18 for adults and $15 for concession.

Tickets can be purchased via The Regent website: www.theregent.com.au

NSW Health provides postexposure treatment and vaccinations for people in NSW if they are bitten or scratched by bats in addition to the recommended wound care.

By Jonathon Howard IMPROVING COMMUNITY services and support for young veterans and their families will be the focus of the latest round of the Australian Government’s $1 million Supporting Younger Veterans (SYV) grants program, which opened this week.

Minister for Veterans’ Affairs Darren Chester said the program was focused on ensuring younger veterans received more support from their local ex-service organisations (ESOs) and other veteran community organisations, with a particular focus on mental health.

“The Government has allocated $1 million to provide funding to improve services and support for younger veterans, and raise awareness of the important and unique issues our younger veterans face after transitioning from the Australian Defence Force,” Mr Chester said.

“This can include social inclusion and connectedness activities for younger veterans and their families, mentoring or other support to assist with transition to civilian life and employment, and online activities that address stigma and raise awareness of mental health issues faced by younger veterans.”

ESOs and community organisation partners are invited to apply for grants of up to $50,000 for local, communitybased projects and activities. A small number of large grants of up to $150,000 are also available for projects that deliver wellbeing support services and activities of broad scale benefit to the younger veteran community.

Applications for the SYV grants close on February 5, 2021.

For more information or to submit an application, visit www. communitygrants.gov.au, call 1800 020 283 or email support@ communitygrants.gov.au

HOPE GAP

FILMS with Mia

The end of a marriage is a sad spectacle even at the best of times, when partners split up amicably, but it becomes a grueling affair when it is one partner abruptly deciding to leave for another lover.

This is the case in Hope Gap, a British drama with an ambiguous title - Hope Gap is the name of a place, a spectacular stretch of cliffs in Sussex where the story takes place, but metaphorically represents also the different expectations between the protagonists when it comes to relationships.

Grace and Edward have been married for almost thirty years, and when we meet them at the beginning of the movie their relationship is obviously under strain, with Grace continuously provoking Edward in order to get a reaction, any reaction, from her progressively more and more courteous but retreating husband. They are both intellectuals: Edward a teacher and Grace a writer working on compiling a book of poetry called ‘I Have Been Here Before’, that will address the full range of human experiences, reminding anyone in distress that they are not alone in experiencing hardship.

However, Grace cannot apparently find solace in

85133

Talking

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

poetry when it comes to her own bereavement.

When Edward unexpectedly – but how can it be unexpected, I wonder - announces that he is leaving her for another woman, Grace’s life unravels. The task of giving voice and substance to the mess that ensues falls on very robust acting shoulders, namely Annette Bening and Bill Nighy, but I found emotional depth missing in the script and could not really get invested in their predicament. Grace and Edward must have been in love at some point in their relationship, but we see only the bitter and grim version of themselves that they have become and struggle to imagine them having been happy at any time during their marriage. They don’t even seem to fully acknowledge that, if nothing else, their relationship has produced a very fine son – who by the way is trying to help them navigate the separation.

Hope Gap is based on the actual experience of the movie’s director/writer William Nicholson’s own parent’s divorce - the film is the adaptation of Nicholson’s 1999 stage play titled The Retreat from Moscow. Despite the fine performances and production value of the film personally I share the opinion of a film critic who wrote ‘Divorce is painful but Hope Gap isn’t damn near painful enough’.

Condong Bowls Club to bring back live music

By Jonathon Howard LIVE MUSIC is on the way back and the Condong Bowls Club is leading the charge on Sunday, December 6, with several local and visiting bands set to rock the club from 2.30pm.

Bands from Murwillumbah and across the Tweed Shire will join with Gold Coast acts in response to the community’s need for more live tunes.

“Three bands recently played a pop-up gig in the M|Arts precinct and the response was really positive,” Condong Bowls Club manager Kerry Campbell said.

“Patrons were appreciative to get to experience some live music again for the first time in many months.

“Some footage found its way on social media and there seemed to be a lot of

people who were disappointed they missed out on seeing bands in their town.”

Ms Campbell said everyone’s had a tough year and now “we can relax for a little while”.

“There’s no better way to help to forget 2020 than lose yourself in some noisy rock ‘n’ roll for a day,” she said.

“And it will be noisy! The bands all deliver guitar driven original rock music – garage, indie, punk, pub, surf rock ‘n’ roll – UnKle UniT, James Bondage & the Safewords, Tokyo Beef, Commonside & Andy Burke – all turning up to 11.

“A COVID-safe plan is in place with limited tickets available.”

Food is available from 4pm to 7pm.

TWEED SAILORS travelled to the Clarence River on Sunday, November 22, for the bi-annual sailing regatta at the Big River Sailing Club (BRSC) at Harwood.

The BRSC hosted the Bridge to Breakers Regatta with record numbers in attendance.

It was another strong turnout from the Tweed Valley Sailing Club (TVSC) at this regatta. Our sailors love the wide-open waters and stiff breezes of the Clarence River, and have attended every Bridge to Breakers regatta since the Tweed club’s beginnings ten years ago.

The 70-strong fleet of mixed classes enjoyed near-perfect sailing conditions with dry warm weather and north-east winds.

Whilst the incoming tide made for demanding upwind work, the flat water and fresh but manageable wind strength enabled most competitors to complete all four races that made up the series.

Tweed sailors were represented in three divisions – cats, fast monohulls, and

Locality Plan and the Rural Land Strategy have done very well,” Mayor Cherry said.

Council’s Director of Planning and Regulation Vince Connell said Council worked in true partnership with the community to establish a 30-year vision and planning framework to develop the Kingscliff Locality Plan and Development Control Plan, with community participation at the core of this approach.

“It is great to be recognised for the extensive engagement we did to involve the community at each stage of the project’s journey including the community reference panel, two-day enquiry bydesign workshop, shopfront exhibition in Kingscliff and block model workshops,” Mr Connell said.

The Rural Land Strategy won the Hard Won Victory Award which recognises projects that have applied innovative solutions and use of planning tools and techniques to address challenges, resulting in significant community benefits.

The judges commended the balanced approach taken by Tweed Shire Council to establish a strategy that is considerate of a range of attitudes and expectations and commended Council given its challenges.

“We managed to overcome a range of technical, social and political challenges during the development of the Rural Land Strategy,” Mr Connell said.

“The extensive stakeholder engagement we did throughout the development of the strategy to ensure all perspectives were heard enabled Council to adopt the final document in May this year after a particularly long period of development.”

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE Council has been named the winner in two distinguished categories at the NSW Awards for Planning Excellence on Friday, November 27, for both the Kingscliff Locality Plan and long-debated Rural Land Strategy.

The awards recognise and acknowledge quality, innovation and excellence in planning across the state.

The Kingscliff Locality Plan and Development Control Plan took out the Public Engagement and Community Planning category, while the Rural Land Strategy won the Hard Won Victory after Council adopted the Strategy in May this year, following an extensive seven-year development process.

The Kingscliff Locality Plan and Development Control Plan was awarded for its “visionary, innovative and designled” public engagement.

The judges noted that the project set a benchmark for how councils can consult with a broad spectrum of the community on complex planning matters in new, inclusive, innovative and fun ways, and commended its ‘community up’ rather than ‘top down’ approach to drafting long-term strategic planning frameworks.

Mayor of Tweed Chris Cherry congratulated the staff involved in producing the two award-winning planning documents.

“Strategic planning is all about balancing the future long-term needs of our community with the short-term needs of today’s residents and finding that middle ground, which I believe both the Kingscliff

Has Your Hot Water System Been Checked Lately?

Ever Heard of a Sacrificial Anode?

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

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

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

Holding Shot with Judy Tuckey WOMEN’S NOVICE Singles, a competition designed for new players who have been a registered member for no more than four years and 364 days, continues to be popular and rewarding for the newbies in the game.

From nominations received for this year’s event, over 50 per cent of entries were from members with less that eighteen months’ experience on the greens.

Following on from high quality preliminary rounds, the quarter finals continued to produce fine displays of quality bowls from the novices.

Kingscliff clubmates Sally Baker and Jan Buck sparred first up.

After trailing closely behind Buck for the first ten ends, a count of four gave Baker the lead.

Playing on strongly, Baker dominated her opposition for the

remainder of the game to claim victory.

Andrews then staged a great fightback to keep Lawrance scoreless for the next seven ends and reducing her deficit to be only four down.

Lawrance then responded with a single and a count of three over the following two ends to claim victory.

The Julie Harrold versus Anne Mullen duel certainly showcased the quality of our very new bowlers.

Williams shines at championships, Crowley and Kineally on fire

By Jo Kennett TWEED CRICKETERS represented the North Coast at the NSW Country Cricket Championships, while back home, Cudgen cemented their lead in Round 8 of the LJ Hooker One Day competition.

Pottsville played Casino at Casino, winning the toss and batting first.

Jayden Hoare (83) and Jamie Bennett (79) opened and nearly closed as well, scoring a combined 162.

Jamie Tripp also got a half ton with the Pelicans 3/251 at the end of the 40 overs.

In reply, Casino scored 184, with Oskar Scholz (2/40) taking the biggest scalp, Hoare taking 3/33 and Oscar Van Megchelen and Nathan Wilson taking two each to give our boys the win.

Murwillumbah played Alstonville at home, with the visitors opening and making 197 after 40 overs.

Blake Burns and Kyle Leighton took two wickets each.

Despite 64 runs from Jackson Agius, the Panthers only managed 109 in reply off the back of some brutal bowling from Alstonville’s Sam Hanna (3/8) and Barnes 4/21.

Harrison Bassingthwaighte, Hayden Wilson and Noah Chapman all made their first grade debut for Cudgen against Marist Brothers Lismore at Lismore.

Cudgen won the toss and went in first, with Caleb Ziebell caught out on 50.

Dylan Stoddart scored 60 for a total of 8/189 at the end of the 40 overs, with some good bowling from the hosts.

In reply, the Hornets held them off at 9/172 and Cameron Dooley took three wickets.

Meanwhile, at the NSW Country Championships, our top guns representing the North Coast lost three games but got the win against Central Northern.

Cudgen’s Alec Williams was named the lead run scorer for the weekend with 208.

Cudgen’s Zac Blattner took 3/31 for North Coastal in the last game, while Pottsville’s Ryan McCloy took 2/32. Conor McDowell, James Julius and Pat Rosser also represented God’s Own Country.

Coastal League

Terranora has been going gangbusters lately and this weekend was no exception.

They won the toss against Alstonville and went to town, with Stephen Harris scoring 68, Harjinder Singh a fantastic 91 and Josh Kineally scoring his first hundred (101) ever in his whole life.

I bet that burst Alstonville’s bubble, with the Terranora lads wrapping up with a massive 7/352 at the end of the 40.

Despite their opener replying with a 90, the visitors just couldn’t

cope, making only 7/190 with Jaji Sandhey taking 3/7 and Beau Beadling 2/4.

Pottsville played Bangalow at Seabreeze with the visitors, who came out firing, up first.

Bangalow was 9/256 at the end of their innings, with Dan Thoms taking 3/20 and Adam Laycock 3/30.

In reply, Pottsville got smoked

by Nasty Nigel Dornan (don’t tell him I called him that) taking 5/29 with our boys finishing on 9/89 after 22 overs.

Thirstiers played Lennox Head at Lennox, with the hosts opening and getting off to a great start.

Lennox ultimately made 7/295 at the end of the 40 overs, with Andrew McKay taking 3/28.

Thirstiers had no hope at all against Toby the terror DeJong (don’t tell him I called him that), who took 7/44.

Our boys will be seeking revenge for that so look out Toby.

Murwillumbah played Tintenbar East Ballina at Ballina, batting first and making 9/161, with Michael Newell top scoring on 35.

In reply, Tintenbar overtook our lads with the loss of just five wickets.

Thirsty Thirds

Terranora Gold played the Cudgen Stingers at Bilambil with Cudgen opening and Charlie Evesson top scoring at the tail end on 46 not out.

A Terranora Gold bowler dishes one up to the Pottsville Breakers

The Stingers were 9/177 at the end of the 40, with Lakhvir Singh taking 3/27 and Collivas and Decame two each.

Decame and Daley took two catches each as well.

Simarjeet Singh (50 not out) and Matt Daley (53 not out) top scored for Gold, who overtook Cudgen to finish at 5/179 after 28 overs.

Evesson took 2/23 for Cudgen.

Pottsville played Terranora Green, with Terranora making 5/295 after 40 overs.

Ben Hall took a very handy 4/34.

In reply, the Pelicans started well with a 68 from Marcus Iles, 63 from Adrian Lanyon and Ian Bowden 45 not out, but it wasn’t enough, with Pottsville’s run ending at 261.

Murwillumbah played Cudgen and Panthers captain Steve Hosier said his team lost the toss and were sent into bat and bowled out for 145 off 32 overs.

Top scorers were Peter Haywood (41 not out) and Stephen Hosier (30).

“It took Cudgen 23 overs to chase down the runs,” Hosier said.

“Best bowlers were John McVicar 1/22 (4) and on debut in thirds was Under 14s player Kwinn Wolf with 1/25 (4).

“Kwinn had a great bowling spell and could have had two or three wickets; one of many juniors showing a bright future for the Murwillumbah Cricket Club.”

The Breakers played the Thirstiers, batting first with Ben Moore (57 not out), Corey Maher (51 not out) and Jamie Crowley (run out on 42) the best with the bat, making 5/234 at the end of 40.

K Edwards opened for the Thirstiers with a half century (bowled by Sam Hickingbotham and caught on 55 with M Edwards (his brother maybe?) next best on 26.

Thirstiers finished on 10/158 with Tex Mikkelsen taking 3/22 and Jamie Crowley taking no prisoners with a brilliant 4/9.

I bet that hurt. And that, as some old gardener used to say, is your blooming lot.

Rental stress increasing as locals fear being forced out

By Jo Kennett

TWEED SHIRE residents are

applying for properties sight unseen in a desperate attempt to find rental properties as the market tightens further.

Twenty-five-year-old Megg Cusack has a baby on the way and is desperate to find a new rental in the Tweed Heads area.

“My lease runs out on December 14 and I’ve been looking for somewhere since April,” she said.

“We’re looking from Banora Point to Tweed Heads West.

“It’s my mum, my partner, my one-yearold and we also have pets, which doesn’t make it any easier.

‘When they say you can have pets it’s generally more expensive, usually about $100; you can see the difference online.”

Megg and her partner grew up in the area and don’t want to leave.

“We both have family here and we don’t want to move to Queensland,” she said.

“Even if we could get something in Kingy, it takes half an hour just to get from Kingscliff to Tweed Heads where my boyfriend works and he doesn’t really want to sit in traffic all day.

Megg has had to extend their lease on a month-by-month basis while searching for a new home.

“We are in a three-bedroom house, but we really want a four bedroom so we can have a room for our baby, which is due in March,” she said.

“This is what happened with my first child; he’s two in January and we moved when I was 35 weeks pregnant and I had him at 38 weeks.

“I was living with my cousin at one stage because we couldn’t get a house. I was stressed out.

“Every time we book in to go and see a rental there are 20 or 30 people and a lot more than that looking at it, and they are applying before they see it.

“The application goes through to the owner for approval and they say everything’s fine and we just don’t get it.

It’s ridiculous. It’s so stressful.”

Many long-term rentals have now gone to short-term, as they did in the Byron Shire where locals are now priced out of the market.

Airbnb properties in the Tweed Shire ballooned by 363 per cent from 289 in 2016 to 1,337 in late 2019, placing further pressure on the rental market, with more properties going to short-term rentals every week.

Raine and Horne Ocean Shores Brunswick Heads’ Julie-Ann Manahan said that across the Tweed region, there is an “extreme” shortage in rental accommodation.

“This has been driven by COVID-19, with people fleeing the major cities for the country life,” Ms Manahan said.

“COVID has made people realise the importance of community and getting back to family values.

“The Tweed region has long been hugely popular as a holiday destination and now people are wishing to call this beautiful area home, and if they cannot find their dream home to purchase, they are looking for a rental accommodation in the interim.”

Ms Manahan said she strongly advises clients who are looking to make the move

to the Tweed to get pre-approval with real estate agencies and make sure they have “all their ducks lined up” so they can be first in line.

“This includes employment and personal references/past rental ledgers and the like,” Ms Manahan said.

“As for the sales market, well, I haven’t seen anything like this since the late ‘80s/ early ‘90s. Properties are selling very quickly.

“We strongly advise all our prospective purchasers to make sure they are registered on all local agency’s CRM [customer relationship management] systems, so they can be updated as soon as properties come to market.”

Ms Manahan said they were currently seeing a number of properties being sold off-market, but she strongly advises clients against that.

“This is a practice for the lazy agent and will invariably cost the vendor money,” she said.

“There are no shortcuts to achieving an excellent property price.

“All property must be proactively marketed to achieve the premium sale price by ensuring all prospective purchasers have a chance to view the property and put their best offer forward.

“You only have one chance to sell your biggest asset and it’s important to focus on achieving the highest possible price.”

REAL Specialists agent Mason Garten said the increase in southerners buying across the Tweed Coast has been significant.

“Realestate.com recently reported searches of our area by Sydney and

The Tweed real estate market is hot

Melbourne buyers had almost doubled,” he said.

“On the ground, I have seen a huge increase in enquiry, open home visitor numbers and historically strong competitive bidding.

“Every sale seems to hit a new record level. Factors pushing prices up have been the hospital construction, the improved amenity, lack of stock and low interest rates.

“However, values have been further pushed up with COVID forcing individuals to work from home, and the efficiency of technologies such as Zoom have been recognised and accepted.

“This has given city-based purchasers an ability to bring forward sea change plans.”

Mr Garten said the Tweed Coast has almost “no rentals and no sales stock”.

“The other day a rental property received 74 applications in a matter of hours prior to inspection,” he said.

“As soon as we get a listing it is generally swooped up by the buyers.

“The most challenging part of this sales cycle is managing buyer expectations when they have missed out on properties despite making great offers on great terms.”

Well 2020 has certainly thrown us some curve balls!

As we all recovered from the excesses of Christmas and hit the road running in January, no one could have predicted the months ahead.

It affected us all in different ways, for some it was social changes, others work and family, but every one of us will have mixed feelings about the year gone by.

For ourselves and our families it was a peculiar time of home schooling, rationing toilet rolls, working from home and trying to plan for every possibility as we headed into the unknown.

From a professional real estate point of view, we approached 2020 as we do each year, with enthusiasm, new concepts, and a fresh outlook. We set out guidelines for the year ahead, discussed projects and then Covid hit.

In the world of real estate, everyone was unsure what this would mean.

Would the market freeze? would people sell out of necessity or financial strain? We certainly saw dramatic decline in the market, as families braced themselves. For many the idea of selling their one secure asset was unthinkable, it was a time to tighten the belts and hold on. We and our families felt this too.

As we approached June, the tables began to turn, confidence grew, and owners were again ready to make plans for the future. Potential buyers began to see the booming market and the excitement of a fresh crop of houses for sale propelled the market forward.

So here we are approaching Christmas once more and since that turn around Mid-winter, the market has continued to soar with houses selling incredibly quickly at head turning prices. Many buyers are from interstate looking to buy in our beautiful region, drawn in by the greenery and peacefulness of the area we know so well.

Local buyers and sellers have seized the opportunity to downsize, move closer to family, or seek a home with that all-important home office. It has changed the way we live and made us reassess our priorities. The strong marketplace has opened up doors for people once again and is continuing as we speak.

Whatever the remaining weeks of 2020 throw at us, as we step into 2021, we as a team will be forging ahead. The world may be different, but we are ready for it.

DEMAND FOR GOLD COAST RENTAL PROPERTY AT BOILING POINT!

D

J Stringer is proud to announce the successful leasing of 2/104 Pacific Parade North Kirra / Bilinga, being a 4 bedroom beachfront apartment with 4 car garage and splendid ocean views, which was leased for $1,150 per week just 2 days after being listed with them, despite being vacant for 2 months without success with a well-known Northern agent.

Other successful lettings included two Bluewater apartments at $800 & $1300 per week respectively and a beautiful beach front unit at Escape at $700 per week.

Terri Whitney of DJ Stringer rental team who handled the lease transactions, advised that ‘demand for quality property right along the coastal strip is at boiling point.

C

ourtney Hartley of Gold Coast Holiday Homes (a specialised holiday business of DJ Stringer Property Services) whose company manages a large portfolio of privately owned holiday homes & apartments on both sides of the border, comments that ʻHoliday enquiries have been escalating to the point that we are almost fully booked for the festive period.

Due to the increase in demand, this is likely to push accommodation prices up and unlike previous peak times, we predict that holiday makers are likely to book for later in January & also target long weekends, as well as getting in early for Easter & School Holidays 2021ʼ.

Courtney is also reaching out for more holiday accommodation to add to their portfolio & invites anyone with a property that may be suitable for holiday letting to contact her personally: Courtney Hartley 07 5599 2700 courtney@goldcoastholidayhomes.com.au

SEYCHELLES WELCOMES ITS NEW RESIDENTS

T

he luxurious Seychelles Apartments situated at 102 Pacific Parade Bilinga, has just welcomed its first of 9 residents who were fortunate to purchase ‘off plan’ some 18 months ago.

Project Marketing Agents David Stringer & Leisa Thorley from DJ Stringer who handled the $17m of apartment sales & general project management, advised that ‘demand was overwhelming when the project was released and all apartments were virtually sold out prior to construction. This was largely due to its wonderful beach front location and sizeable floor plans ranging from 160m2 to over 300m2 for a full floor. Prices were very competitive starting from $1.250M to just over $2.5M and buyers were also given some scope for variations which gave them a sense of ownership from day one’.

Seychelles’ is the third local project for Greg Smith who also completed Bluewater’ and Crest’ along Pacific Pde and is currently planning a 14 unit development on the Tweed.

All three Smith developments were built by GCB Constructions & Architecture was by Boris Design, who has already scooped individual Building Design Awards for the last two projects.

GOLD COAST HOLIDAY HOMES SET FOR A BUMPER SUMMER & BEYOND

There is a shortage of property for rent which is pushing prices up and the demand is further fuelled by prospective purchasers who are limited with buying options, wanting to rent in the area until the right property comes along to buy. It really is a great time for investors to capitalise on the upbeat rental market & we urge anyone with a property that is underperforming, vacant or perhaps even those with a holiday rental property to contact us as we are confident we can deliver a better yield and a more stable return’.

LOOK NORTH, NOT BACK

W

hilst 2020 was a year we would all like to forgive & forget, in real estate terms it was a year with great heights for the Southern Gold Coast & Northern NSW regions.

We experienced a huge spike in enquiry levels for both sales & rentals, with prices & rents soaring on the back of strong demand – this has the ability to continue for at least the next 12-18 months with a surge in population growth especially from our Southern neighbours.

We are privileged to be able to market the most diverse range of properties for sale, across the Southern Gold Coast & Northern NSW regions (in a market that is red hot across all spectrums) which includes luxury beachfront, rural acreage, suburban residential & apartment Projects. This enables us to assist a large number of buyers from all walks of life and demographics, in their quest for lifestyle & investment choices.
