Special Energy Crisis Feature - Part 1

Power Prices Going Up 16% to 20% in July

The three biggest energy retailers in NSW announced they will be increasing electricity prices by 16 to 19.9% on the 1st of July 2017. Some experts are predicting 40-50% increases in power costs over the next three years.

Electricity prices have doubled in the past five years because the Federal Government deliberately created uncertainty about energy and climate policy. Investment in new power plants and renewable energy has stalled, while transmission and distribution networks over-invested in poles and wires, charging consumers a premium on the value of their excessive investments, that now make up half of the charges on electricity bills. Coal and Gas Corporations made huge donations to political parties, lobbying politicians to do nothing while they manipulated and doubled the wholesale spot prices for electricity in the Australian Electricity Market. Households and businesses are now bearing the burden for this massive failure in leadership to provide low cost, clean energy.

Vincent Selleck is the Managing Director of 888 Solar Tek, dedicated to helping households and businesses defend against the high cost of electricity, with strategies and solutions using the latest solar technology available today.

Take Back Your Power!

With Feed in Tariffs now ridiculously low, storing solar power in batteries is now much cheaper than the grid. 6-12 cents per kWh it is not a fair price to export power when you have to buy your energy back later for more than 30 cents. Solar Power Battery Storage is one of the best ways to beat the unfair electricity network and create energy independence today. 888 Solar Tek is local, family owned solar company based in the Northern Rivers, providing revolutionary new technology that slashes the cost of battery storage.

The landscape for solar energy has changed dramatically over the last two years. High Feed In Tariffs for selling power to the grid have finished in NSW, making it more important With custom designs based on your energy use, 888 Solar Tek to use your own power rather than selling it. Instead of getting 60 cents per kWh for energy will maximise the benefits of your investment and deliver a cost effective solution for your power needs. They offer a free sent to the network, retailers make up their own prices, from zero to 12 cents per kWh in energy assessment and are delivering hybrid and off-grid power NSW.

Meanwhile, the developer, Wollumbin Common Trust, project director Neville Fredericks spoke to The Weekly on Tuesday to answer several questions around the development. 1. Firstly, could you please address concerns from local residents around the water treatment proposal and bore water extraction? Do you believe the water table can sustain the proposed number of relocatable homes and the waste water treatment onsite will not risk cross contamination? “The Department of Water is currently addressing the proposed water extraction planned from an existing bore on the site. If the planned

water usage does not meet their standards due to proximity to other neighbouring bores, a new bore will be drilled at a distance that will comply with regulations. The caravan park will employ best practice for water efficiency, collecting roof water for internal use and recycling stormwater for garden usage. The proposed effluent disposal on site will comply with all of the relevant environmental standards. Trees will be grown on the disposal area which would be suitable for progressive harvesting and milling when mature.” 2. Residents have expressed concerns that the development is an attempt to make big profits at the expense of Dungay’s rural lifestyle. Could you please address these concerns? “Council’s land use zoning plans identify this land for caravan park usage, subject to development approval. The owners would not have embarked on this proposal without it being zoned for caravan park use. The immediate precinct has a primary school, a high school, an industrial plant hire yard, a stock food manufacturing plant and a café.” 3. Although many Dungay residents say they do not accept any level of development, would the developer consider a less intensive development application or do you feel this is the sustainable model for both profitability and future housing needs? “The project needs a certain scale to be viable. The initial concept was for 250 sites but was reduced to 187 which will occupy approximately 30 per cent of the site. The Tweed Shire has a severe housing shortage and this project will positively contribute to affordable housing choice in the district. Based on similar projects in NSW, over 90 per cent of residents will be over 60 years old who are downsizing or choosing to move into a more supporting communal environment.” To have your say on the development application visit http://s1.tweed. n s w. g o v. a u / P a g e s / XC. T r a c k / SearchApplication.aspx?id=745665 or Council’s offices (DA17/0383).

“We prefer not to be spending ratepayer’s money fighting the proposed development in court by blindly rejecting the DA. “If the recommendations are for approval then it would likely be approved.” When asked whether Cr Allsop felt the development was too intensive across 187 proposed sites, he referred to the shire’s housing crisis. “I believe it is within scope of an approval as it would appear to meet with the requirements in its development application,” he said. “Having said that, we will be looking closely for issues that may be caused or could occur in the future if it were to go ahead. “Our region has a housing, or if you like a home shortage, and the applicants have identified this problem and are looking to capitalise and fulfil the need I would be suggesting. “I have no doubt that this development will impact and change Dungay. “Kingscliff has Noble Lakes and the presence of this estate also fulfils many people’s needs, whilst adding to the traffic congestion it behaves like a small town within its own boundaries. “I believe it runs very smoothly. It delivers a return to the local economy also. Hastings Point caravan park also does this.” Cr Allsop said he would be looking at the application and any potential issues within. “The application is not simply given a green or red light,” he said. “If the development application passes through the necessary official gates for approval and we say no, the applicant can take Tweed Shire to court. “If we were unsuccessful, the council and therefore we would be paying costs of this case. This is something we need to be mindful of.”

A PRIVATE CREMATION

AS DUNGAY residents continue to campaign against a proposed caravan park development at 355 Tomewin Road, The Weekly put several questions to Tweed Shire Councillors to get their views on the development application. The development in question is a 187site manufactured home and caravan park proposal in the heart of Dungay, which has been on the local agenda for more than 12 months. A revised $20-million project application was submitted to Council on Thursday, June 22, by Wollumbin Common Pty Ltd and maps out plans for the caravan park to include 172 long-term manufactured home sites and 15 short-term caravan sites. The Weekly asked Councillors several questions including whether they agree with development at Dungay and whether they feel this development is too intensive. It should be noted that the development application is currently under review by Council and while councillors are familiar with the application, it has not reached the recommendation stage. Mayor Katie Milne said she understands there are a number of significant concerns from the community. “We were initially advised though that this matter was to be determined by the (NSW Government) Joint Regional Planning Panel (JRPP) due to the total cost of the subdivision and the dwellings,” Mayor Milne said. “I queried this as the dwellings are not actually part of this approval process. “Council is now seeking legal advice whether this development should actually be determined by Council instead. “Councillors are generally much more accessible than the JRPP members and have a better appreciation of the local context than the State appointed body.” Councillor James Owen said he felt it was too early to comment on the development and requested more time to consider the application. “It’s early days with this development application (DA), as it only has been lodged,” Cr Owen said. “Council staff and Councillors need time to review the DA documentation, hear the views of the community and consider the merits of the proposal.” Councillor Pryce Allsop said the development will need to be judged on its merits and highlighted some of the potential positive outcomes for the shire. “Firstly, the development application must be judged on its merits,” he said.

Koala protections should not be altered

We have been told many times now, that koalas are endangered. What is it with Leda that he continues to try to get away with making it impossible for any koalas to survive in his development of Kings Forest. He wants to plant only on established land where people will be using the land. This will save him planting 14.92 hectares. And he doesn’t want to start planting until later in the development. He does not want to meet all his requirements to offset his use of koala land, that is he does not want to plant primary koala trees in 27 hectares (of cleared land) within the Cudgen Nature reserve. Offset is about planting in buffer and environmental zones and is a planning requirement. He wants to narrow the koala corridor going east/west by half! Koalas would need to keep within a 50 meter corridor instead of 100m. How safe is that? The edges will be next to houses with all the noise and encroachment that people do as well as other animals that must use the area. He wants to scrap four of the five underpasses to be built on the roads. Koalas need all the help they can get when they are being kept out of their home areas and need to travel. Surely the developer should not be allowed to get away with these changes that will further endanger the chances of koalas to survive. Marie Jack, Burringbar

Support for Koalas needs to come from politicians

In reference to a recent letter from ‘Team Koala’ President Jenny Hayes. In order to save the Kings Forest koalas we need support from the ‘development at any cost’ and anti-koala faction of the Tweed Shire Council being Polglase, Owen, Allsop and Byrnes. These Councillors, supported by some Council staff, recently voted for the inevitable demise of the Black

Rocks endangered koala population by supporting light industrial development within the koala corridor. The NSW Liberal State Government Legislates new tree clearing laws which will push the koala closer to the brink of extinction. There are two types of people in this world. People who think the Government is looking out for their best interest and that of the environment…..and people who think. Andrew Bennett, Murwillumbah

Give three bin system a fair go

Well Richard, it is people like you that won’t help this three bin system to work. All of your food scraps, meat scraps etc that you are so worried about getting fly blown, goes each week, the same as it would have done in the red bin, so if you are putting them in the red bin, of course they will be smelly after two weeks. And your lawn clipping go in your green bin. If you read the little booklet that came with your caddy, (at the bottom of the page classified Landfill- red bin) you will see it stated “overfull bins and those with incorrect items will not be collected, they will be tagged and residents will be asked to put the correct items in each bin” so may I suggest, you had better buy a good pair of rubber gloves. It also suggests that you “wrap your meat scraps and put them in the freezer, until they are ready to go out” We actually got a smaller red bin as we only ever have one or two bags each week. The bigger green bin is great because so much more can now go into it. So be a ‘Goodfellow’, read your little booklet and give this system a fair go. And for what it’s worth, we have resided in the Tweed for 70 years, so let’s all try to make this new system work. Eunice Higgins, Murwillumbah

We all must do our bit to make new bin system work

In response to Richard Goodfellow’s letter (TVW 6/7/17). Oh Richard, your green bin is now too big and so you are going to stamp your foot and not play anymore. If you are so concerned about fly and maggot infestation why are you still going to put your kitchen scraps in the red bin to fester for two week rather than wrap them in newspaper and put them in your “too big” green bin to be collected in one week. There is a very informative article about the new system in the July 4 Tweed Link (issue 1013). This 3 Bin System will work “but it does depend

on each of us individually doing our bit,” quote from the link. M Joubert, Murwillumbah

Trickle down economics only help the wealthy

There are two schools of economic thought. The first promotes the idea that if the rich get massively rich, some of this wealth will trickle down to the poor and we’ll all live in a utopia. This has been the economic theory of choice by most of the world’s governments since the end of the feudal system. It’s never worked but it makes the rich richer so it attracts a lot of donations to electoral funds. The second school promotes giving purchasing power to the poor. This has never been promoted by governments; they have always tried to stop it, but on two occasions in the European history of Australia, they were unable to do so. The first was the Gold Rush of the 1850s. It wasn’t that heaps of people went to the gold fields and became rich. Only about 2 per cent actually made squillions. It was that heaps of people went to the gold fields thus draining the workforce. Most made better than wages and if employers wanted to keep their staff they had to pay them more. The government tried to keep the gold in the hands of the rich by charging more than the poor could afford for a Miner’s Right and that led to the Eureka Stockade. Even then the penny didn’t drop but two weeks later a demonstration was held in Melbourne outside the Melbourne Town Hall. So many people turned up that the Government finally got the message and the boom was on. It lasted until 1890. Henry Lawson marked its demise with his poem, ‘The Faces in the Street’. “They lie do those who tell us in their loud, decisive tones, That want is here a stranger and misery’s unknown, For where the inner suburbs and the city proper meet, My window sill is level with the faces in the street.” We still hear these loud decisive tones with comments like, “It’s a great time to be an Australian”. The 1890s depression lasted until 1939 when World War II forced economic imperatives on Government that it couldn’t avoid. A large part of the workforce was in uniform and wages were kept from exploding by the Manpower, a government organization that regulated the wartime workforce. At the end of the war in 1945, six years of pent up demand exploded and again a boom was on. It lasted until 1974, many of your readers will remember it. We were the biggest home owning country in the world.

The purchasing power held by the workforce nourished the boom until persistent price rises caused the boom to come to an end. Recently, someone wrote a book about the boom of the late 1990s. I don’t know what planet he was on but it wasn’t this one. A boom isn’t when Mr Packer can afford an extra casino, it’s when every Australian family can afford a house and a car and a few little luxuries like a holiday away from home every few years and access to a decent education for the kids. T h e Wh i t l a m a n d Fr a z e r Governments had free universities, the present mob has $100,000 university degrees. As for the abolition of penalty rates in the fast food industry, it’s said to create jobs. It wont even create profits. Does anyone believe people will buy more hamburgers because the person serving them doesn’t get penalty rates. They’ll sell less hamburgers because 700,000 people will have less take home pay and will not be able to afford so much. Every politician involved in the sale of our electricity capacity, promised that electricity would be cheaper in private hands. It’s gone up by 200 per cent. I refer you to Mr. Lawson’s poem. It still applies. Jim O’Regan, North Arm

More police needed

I do believe a permanent police presence is needed at Murwillumbah Police Station. About six weeks ago I was out walking on dusk and came across a rather disturbed man yelling and screaming obscenities in a suburban street. I felt particularly threatened so decided to call the police. I was put through to the Tweed Station and they said they would come and attend to the matter. Sheree Garner, Murwillumbah

My thoughts on police issue

I have read with interest your exposé of policing in Murwillumbah and does the town require around the clock police presence (TVW July 6, 2017). I raise a number of issues that might be raised with the Minister for Emergency Services and local politicians and their responses reported in the Weekly. Why has the number of police at Murwillumbah been slowly reduced since 1996. Police records and rosters will show the authorised number reduced. Statistics (their response) will show the crime and antisocial behaviour have been reduced thus necessitating the reduction of police personnel to other stations in the Local Area Command where crime statistics have increased. The follow on is that statistics will be reduced because it does not allow

operational police to be proactive but simply to be reactive going from one job to another. If you have the personnel locally to deal with proactive policing you can roster accordingly, that is foot patrols through Knox Park and other trouble spots and walk through of hotels and licensed premises (how long has it been since you saw police do this?) Additional staffing allows police to patrol the outer areas such as Tyalgum, Chillingham, Uki and other surrounding areas recording information of suspected criminal activity and talking to locals. If you have sufficient staff you can endure a police presence in the station from at least 7am to 5pm with an open door policy. It concerns me when we use management jargon such as modelling to utilise best police practice, it normally infers reduction of staff and borrowing from Peter to pay Paul. When you do not have police resources to be proactive, carry out check and make arrests, statistics will always be reduced. An old time officer once told me that policing is about catching crooks, not too complicated is it. Our Local Area Commander is no doubt doing the best he can with what he has and no doubt has been told to deal with what you’ve got. Local police are no doubt frustrated but can only deal with what they can due to limited numbers. The people who should and can deal with this problem is your local politicians. Thomas George can front up but you simply cannot see the other half of town Geoff Provest having a go. I don’t get involved in policing issues but it galls the hell out of me when I see a station closed for a substantial amount of time and a crew out of Tweed Heads or Kingscliff to attend to jobs. No doubt the crew of Murwillumbah when on duty having to attend jobs in Tweed Heads, all for the sake of budgetary constraints. In closing remember this, in 1996 the officer in charge at Murwillumbah was a Senior Sergeant, his second in charge was a Sergeant with a uniform strength of approximately 14 officers and believe it or not had two permanent detectives. Murwillumbah has increased in population and the police strength has been reduced. Makes sense? I am not suggesting Murwillumbah has a 24/7 presence, however as in the old days 16 hours a day is not unreasonable. Name withheld, Nunderi

Greenhills Caravan Park holding on by a thread Tourist rescued off Bolton said. The Weekly put several questions to Tweed Shire Council who immediately refuted claims it was attempting to hinder the business from reopening. “Council is certainly not hindering Mr and Mrs Bolton, in fact Council organised for Fire and Rescue to assist with the clean-up of the park immediately after the flood and then undertook a lot of work clearing rubbish and debris from Greenhills Caravan Park at no cost to the owners,” a Tweed Shire Council spokesperson said. “ H o w e v e r, g i v e n t h e t r a g i c circumstances that occurred it is incumbent on Council to review the historical approval to operate to ensure that public health and safety is given the highest priority. “Council has advised Mr and Mrs Bolton of this review and invited their participation. It is hoped the review will be conducted within four to six weeks. “In the interim Council has advised that only those long-term residents currently living at Greenhills may continue as long-termers until the findings of the review are to hand. Council supports the reopening of Greenhills, as a tourist park, at the earliest opportunity. “Council understands the main requirement here is the reconnection of electricity to the park, which is a matter for the owners to attend to with their supplier.” The Tweed Shire Council spokesperson said that “ultimately the future of Greenhills Caravan Park is a matter for its owners to determine”. “Council is undertaking a review of the conditions of approval to operate Greenhills Caravan Park with the objective of maximising public

health and safety and recognising the commercial needs of the owners,” the Council spokesperson said. “Mr and Mrs Bolton have been invited to participate in the review to ensure their voices and needs are addressed.” The couple were also concerned as to why they are no longer allowed to house longterm tennants. “The Local Government Act imposes on Council a duty to ensure and promote public health and safety,” Council’s spokesperson said. “It follows that it is incumbent on Council to review the historical approval to operate the caravan park to ensure that public health and safety is given the highest priority. “The tragic loss of life during the flood mandates due consideration so any possible steps to prevent a recurrence can be made. “The request that no more longtermers, other than those currently physically residing in the park, is an interim measure to mitigate potential risk until the review is finalised.” The Weekly also queried Council as to whether it would consider buying the Greenhills site? “No, Council is constrained in how it uses ratepayers funds,” the council spokesperson said. “Council is however working with Mr and Mrs Bolton to secure the maximum possible Category C North Coast Floods Recovery Grant for Small Business, which we believe will shortly be forthcoming.

mountain after fall

AN AMERICAN tourist visiting the Tweed has suffered a minor fall at the top of Wollumbin Mt Warning, hindering her ability to hike down at around 2pm on Saturday, July 8. Tweed Police said the woman in her late 40s had suffered minor injuries from a fall near the top observation deck and was unable to descend from the kilometre-high hike. The Westpac Rescue Helicopter was dispatched at around 3pm and hovered over the mountain for several minutes, according to local witnesses. Police said the woman was assisted down for about 100-metres to an emergency helicopter pad. The helicopter then winched the woman off the mountain and flew her to The Tweed Hospital for assessment and treatment. The Officer told The Weekly that her injuries were not serious and only local rescue services were required at the scene. It was the first helicopter rescue on the mountain since Wollumbin National Park was reopened more than five weeks ago following the Tweed flood. Anyone visiting Wollumbin Mt Warning is reminded that the trail is considered an advanced hike and can take up to six hours (round trip). A second rescue was also believed to have taken place near the top of the mountain on Tuesday, July 11. News Corp reported that a 22-year-old woman had injured her ankle from a fall near the bottom of the summit chain climb. The woman was believed to have got to the bottom of the trail before the Westpac Life Saver Rescue Helicopter transported her to The Tweed Hospital.

GREENHILLS CARAVAN Park owners Jan and Graeme Bolton are holding onto their last shred of hope to save the park as they continue to endure one of the toughest challenges of their lives following an historic flood that swept through the business a April 31. It has been more than three months since the flood impacted the park and the Bolton family are still waiting in limbo for an opportunity to reconnect the power and reopen the park. The couple have priced reconnecting the park’s electrical grid, whish was likely to occur this week, but were forced to bring the Ombudsman in to mediate the process due to what they said was increased red tape. “We don’t understand why everyone else is allowed to pick up the pieces and start again, while we’re left asking whether we can restore power to the park and months has passed,” Mr Bolton said. The family, who also live on the property, were told the park will again be assessed by another flood team in the coming weeks, to determine whether the park is fit to be reopened. “We’ve also been told again by Tweed Shire Council that we’re not allowed to have cabins with wheels without on-road registration, which we did not have prior to the floods,” Mrs Bolton said. “Plus, if we do reopen Council said we’re no longer allowed to have permanent residents.” The family now allege that an effort is being made to hinder the small business from ever reopening. “It doesn’t make sense, why did we have to use the Ombudsman just to tell us we could reconnect the power,” Mr

Historic images inside Imperial Hotel needed Seniors discount for power THE OWNER of the Imperial Hotel is throwing down a challenge that could help bring back the glitz and glamour of the 1930s to one of Murwillumbah’s most iconic buildings as it undergoes renovations. Owner Shane Nugent (pictured below right) is in the process of restoring the grand hotel on Murwillumbah Street and is calling on the community to help with any old internal pictures or other imagery of the Imperial Hotel dating from the 1930s and upwards. “We are hoping locals can provide us with a photo of something we can use to recreate the old 1932 bar and floor area,” he said. Shane is also offering a $500-dollar bar tab (conditions apply) as a thank you to anyone that can come forward with images to help with the restoration. Passionate about restoring old buildings to their former glory, Shane said he is planning on reopening the Imperial Hotel with a tribute to the past in the bar plus a few new features for families.

Shane also owns the Murwillumbah Hotel and has restored the hotel to a similar art deco style, which is now a popular destination for visitors. “I’m always being asked by the locals about when I’m reopening the Imperial Hotel bar,” he said. “We’re eager to get those images of inside so we can bring back some of the amazing details and give locals and visitors a real experience,” he said. As the hotel is being reused and restored it will soon provide much needed affordable housing upstairs and a local social area for meeting and recreation downstairs. “We are working hard to reduce our environmental footprint by providing solar to reduce greenhouse gases, water tanks to save on water, we will be using heat pumps for our hot water, led lighting and the lowest power using fridges,” he said. Shane said it made sense to redesign old buildings rather than clearing more areas to build new sites. “The Imperial Hotel (as per many other big buildings) had much wasted floor space, which in this case new

businesses are now using, instead of the need of a whole new building which would require too much sourcing from nature,” he said. Shane, who moved to Murwillumbah from Sydney in 2010, said he loves the town’s old buildings and this one “is especially loved by the locals. “Everyone here is very excited to finally have this wonderful old building to recreate and restore. We are hoping to actually capture the 1932 original feel with remade tiles and bar toilets etc. Down to uniforms and glassware,” he said. “We really hope the community can help us in our search for old pictures for the recreation to the old 1932 bar and floor area of this lovely old building.” Anyone with old photos inside the Imperial Hotel can email editor@ theweekly.net.au – alternatively you can bring old images or photo albums into The Weekly and they can be photographed as reproductions. To find out more phone the Murwillumbah Hotel on (02) 6672 1139.

MEMBER FOR Tweed Geoff Provest said the State Government has secured a two-year deal with one of Australia’s biggest energy suppliers, which would create savings of up to 25 per cent for Tweed seniors on their gas and electricity usage charges. Minister for Ageing Tanya Davies recently announced the renewed commitment from energy retailer AGL, which will begin offering new discounts to NSW Seniors Card members from July 1. Mr Provest said the NSW Government had been working hard to secure these competitive discounts for seniors in Tweed. “Older people have worked hard all their lives and given so much to their communities, so I am both thrilled and proud to be able to deliver the renewal of a partnership that eases the cost of living pressures for them,” he said. From July 1, AGL will offer Seniors Card members a 25 per cent guaranteed discount off electricity usage and 19 per cent guaranteed discount off gas usage charges on a two year energy plan. “Given we are now well and truly into winter, the timing of this renewal could not be better. We know every dollar counts for seniors,” Mr Provest said. More than 1.5 million older people in NSW have a Seniors Card. More than 5600 businesses now offer Seniors Card discounts, up from 1600 in January 2015. For more information on the Seniors Card, visit www. seniorscard.nsw.gov.au To contact AGL or to sign up, call 13 12 45 or visit www. agl.com.au.

not possible to use the findings of reports from other properties to determine absolute coverage for another customer’s claim.” IAG also outlined that it has approved 54 per cent of claims received from a total claim number across the Tweed Shire of 335 and 1,900 from across NSW. The Weekly also asked what the next course of action was for residents who had their claim denied. “When a decision on a claim is finalised, customers have the option to have it reviewed through our internal dispute resolution process, after which they can also choose to take their case externally, of which one of the options available generally is the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS),” the IAG spokesperson said. “We also offer counselling to help support our customers during this difficult time. “Flood is complex with no easy solutions. We regularly meet with communities and stakeholders from all levels of government to find a long-term sustainable solutions to flood risk and we have been calling for greater mitigation funding to help protect communities from natural disasters.” Another burning question from residents was comments that NRMA was paying insurance claimants policies without allegedly having a premium in place or “flood coverage”? “We have a variety of policies available for our residential, motor and business customers that offer different types of cover that will appeal to the individual circumstances of our customers,” the IAG spokesperson said. “Each policy explains the events that you are covered for. “The policy wording and the definitions for events such as storm and flood will be used to determine whether we are able pay your claim as set out in your policy. “For example, there is a broader coverage priced for and provided within the storm wording for NRMA Domestic home policies when compared to some other products on the market. This is why residents in an area may experience different outcomes.” In closing IAG emphasised that “when it comes to insurance policies, there’s not a ‘one size fits all’ approach”. “It’s important that customers are able to choose a policy that best suits their needs and circumstances,” the IAG spokesperson said. “Home and business customers are in different situations and looking for different policies for their needs, which is why you may see differences in the wording of products and policies. “They may wish to seek independent advice before choosing an insurance policy. Brokers can help businesses find the policy that best suits their needs.”

AS RESIDENTS across the Tweed Shire continue to await the outcome of their insurance claims three months after the devastating impact of the Tweed floods, The Weekly caught up with insurance agency NRMA, which is owned by IAG, to discuss policy coverage and the number of claims it’s received so far. A spokesperson for IAG said following Tropical Cyclone Debbie, it had received more than 8,200 claims from across Australia including more than 1,900 in NSW. “56 per cent of the total claims from Cyclone Debbie have now been finalised, including approximately 54 per cent in NSW,” the spokesperson said. The company said the impacts ranged from cyclone damage in Queensland to subsequent storm and flood damage inland and down the coast. “The majority of claims stretch across a 1,535 km area from around Townsville to northern NSW, however, impacts were also felt in the Sydney metro area and Illawarra (south of Sydney) before the system headed over to New Zealand,” the IAG spokesperson said. “Our priority is the safety of our customers, and we continue to do all we can to help those impacted get back on their feet as quickly as possible.” The company spokesperson said that following a major weather event, such as Cyclone Debbie, residents will see a wide range of damage that has occurred for a variety of reasons. “Some of this damage will have been caused by heavy rain and strong winds, some will be from flooding and there will be properties that have been impacted by both,” the IAG spokesperson said. “All our policies cover storm damage but not all cover for flood, including where customers opt-out of flood coverage. “We take great care to review the individual circumstances of a customer’s claim to ensure we make a fair and appropriate decision that reflects the insurance policy someone has taken out. “Where the policy does not cover for flood, we use an independent hydrologist to confirm the cause of the damage to a customer’s property to see whether the storm or rainwater cover could be applied. We do this regardless of whether it is a home or business policy. “The independent hydrology report examines a number of factors, including the topography and drainage of the site, how high the property is, its proximity to a water course such as a creek or river, as well as the rainfalls recorded and the events in the area on that day. “These independent reports look at individual factors for each property, so it’s

to exclude koalas from coming into contact with humans. “So many people from this community are just going to feel completely betrayed by this developer who claims that community trust is important to them,” Ms Hayes said. “After years of widespread opposition from the community they were finally given permission on the basis of certain koalafriendly measures. Things like planting Primary food trees so they had food, 100 metre corridors so they had some chance of moving safely and fences on both sides. “Now they have permission they are trying to withdraw from their promises and commitments.” Ms Hayes said Team Koala representatives will be at Casuarina Shopping Village this Saturday and Sunday (July 15 and 16). “We are very happy to help members of the public object quickly and easily,” she said.

enable the general public to be alerted that an urban release land area accommodating 10,000 people may want to use a private infrastructure supplier.” The facility is proposed to be constructed in a 2C urban expansion zone next to what is planned to be a Council sports field on Depot Road. The developer wants the Department of Planning to approve a new SP2 infrastructure zone to the Kings Forest development plans, which would allow for the construction of the wastewater treatment plant. According to Leda’s plans, 50m ecological buffers have been removed from the area where the treatment plant is planned to be built. There would also be limited buffers between the treatment plant and surrounding future housing, the town centre, sports field and business land. Council said their normal practice is for a 400m buffer whilst the subdivision manual for the development recommends 200m to 400m buffers. According to Council’s submission the neighbourhood centre would be located approximately 115m from the treatment plant, future residential development 150m and open space 70m (20m tree buffer).

LOCAL KOALA conservationists are urging the public to express their views on plans by the developer of Kings Forest to alter their koala plan, in what they believe will hinder future Tweed Coast koala survival. Leda, the developer of Kings Forest, submitted an application to the Department of Planning in June to modify their approval with a new Koala Plan of Management (KPOM), that includes changes to koala habitat offsets, koala fencing and fauna underpasses as well as removing traffic calming devices, and is currently on public exhibition for community input. Team Koala president Jenny Hayes said the developer is “trying to weasel out of their commitments” and the previous koala plan had the “ bare minimum requirements for koala survival”. The new plans includes planting secondary rather than primary koala food trees in cleared areas which Ms Hayes said “are of little benefit to the koalas”. She also said the plans do not include planting offset trees in either cleared or disturbed areas. “The east-west corridor has already been watered down,” she said. “Now the developer wants to water it down even further which will be of no benefit to the koalas. “The current corridor is a minimum of 100 metres and the developer wants to make it 50 metres which is of little benefit to the koalas.” The modification also includes removing the requirement to plant koala food trees on a 27-hectare parcel of land within the Cudgen Nature Reserve, which was part of the initial project approval as well as changing the number and location of koala fencing and underpasses in an aim

TWEED SHIRE Councillors carried a unanimous vote at their Thursday, July 6, Planning Meeting to make a submission to the Department of Planning over Leda’s application for private water and sewerage services at their Kings Forest development. The plans indicate the treatment plant would be located within the Kings Forest development approximately 750m west of Tweed Coast Road at Depot Road (see image below). If approved Northern Water Solutions (NSW), who are owned and operated by Leda, would seek licenses under the Independent Pricing and Regulation Tribunal (IPART) to provide water and sewerage services at Kings Forest as they have for their Cobaki Lakes development (see page 12). In their submission to the Department of Planning, Council raised several concerns over NWS’ plans including the use of recycled water in homes, businesses and for irrigation of parks and sporting fields. Council said that previous developments that had recycled water within the home were not accepted by the community and mentioned a scheme in the Coomera/ Pimpama area of the Gold Coast, where a lack of recycled water use by households caused the scheme to be closed. Council were also concerned over the number of pump stations that would be required for a pressure system, when they prefer a gravity system and the amenity of “having small pump stations in close proximity to around half the dwellings in the development as well as the maintenance and renewal of a large number of pump stations,” Council documentation reads. There were also concerns that this modification has not yet been exhibited to the public for comment. “Council is of the opinion that a MOD of this nature warrants public exhibition to

Multiple objections to Cobaki wastewater plant

AN APPLICATION to the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) by Northern Water Solutions to supply retail water, wastewater and sewerage to the Cobaki Lakes development has attracted multiple submissions objecting to the application including more than 30 public submissions The plans include constructing a private wastewater treatment plant at the site of the former golf driving range at 425 Piggabeen Road, and installing a pressure sewer system. Leda Holdings, who own and operate Northern Water Solutions, has also submitted an application to the Department of Planning to change their approved Concept Plan to have the option of a private water and sewerage supply with a decision yet to be made on the application. Bernadette and Tony Vincent, owners of the wedding venue The Abbey at Cobaki voiced several issues with the plans in a submission to IPART including flooding, odour, traffic and the impact on their business. “We operate a wedding reception venue next door and the loss of business would be disastrous,” they said. “Who wants to get married overlooking a sewage treatment plant? Our Guests would be expected to be eating canapes and potentially exposed to disgusting odours associated with these treatment plants.” Flooding was also a concern raised by several Cobaki and Piggabeen locals. “The proposed land is subject to floods,” Mr and Mrs Vincent said. “Apart from tidal flooding that we all experience along the Tweed River and Piggabeen Creek, the rain water runs down from our elevated property (and dam) directly onto the property of 425 Piggabeen Road. “We have been living here for approximately seven years and have seen it flood many

times, up to a level of about 300mm. As a result, it then gradually runs back into the creek at the back of the property which in turn runs into all the creeks and estuaries supplying the Tweed River systems.” D Foyster of Piggabeen said that Tweed Shire Council should be supplying the new development and was concerned about increased traffic on Piggabeen Road. “Our family regularly run, walk and cycle past the proposed location and are concerned by increased traffic risks the treatment plant would generate both during construction and when in the operational phase,” the family said. “The risk of such a treatment plant in future failing to meet standards would require existing ratepayers to be burdened by the assumption of the responsibility by Tweed Shire Council. “Why not let Tweed Shire Council treat all wastewater from the new subdivision in an upgraded existing facility as per the approved development application for the Cobaki estate?” NSW Health said they do not support Northern Water Solutions’ application for drinking water infrastructure and supply although they do support the application for recycled water and sewerage provided several matters are addressed. “The applicant has not provided evidence of their technical capacity to identify and manage public health risk associated with the operation and supply of water infrastructure,” Dr Ben Scalley, Director Environmental Health Branch, NSW Health, said in a letter to IPART. “The preliminary drinking water risk assessment provided in the application does not identify any risk to human health as a result of contamination of drinking water or treatment failure.” NSW Health requested to be consulted by IPART during their assessments for recycled

water and drinking water and that Northern Water Solutions develops an incident notification protocol for issues such as water quality. “The risk to human health from exposure to recycled water due to a cross-connection, treatment failure or unintended uses has been inconsistently addressed in the risk assessment and requires careful attention,” Dr Scalley said. “Northern Water Solutions should implement effective controls to protect against cross-connection.” A submission to IPART from Solo Water, a retail supplier of water, alleged that Northern Water Solutions (NWS) had copied parts of an application Solo Water had previously made to IPART. “It has come to our attention that parts of the Solo Water Application have been copied or substantially reproduced in the NWS Application,” the letter from Solo Water read. “By way of example, the layout and large portions of the wording of the Solo Water Integrated Water Management Plan has been substantially reproduced in the NWS Integrated Water Management Plan. “Further, the NWS Customer Complaints Procedure table of contents contains a subsection entitled ‘Solo Water Contact Numbers’ and the Sewerage Risk Assessment still contains the words Wilton Water. “This is clear evidence that the NWS document has been copied from Solo Water’s Application and indicates that the content of the documents (which is not publicly available) may not be the original work of NWS. “We submit that where the material in NWS’s application substantially reproduces a third party’s copyright material, it should not be relied upon as demonstrating that NWS itself has the necessary capacity to carry out the activities of the licence if

granted and is a relevant ‘other’ matter to be taken into account by the Minister when considering whether NWS is a fit and proper applicant.” However Leda Development’s Tweed manager Reg van Rij denied the claims and said there were questions around the original authors of the documents. A spokesperson for IPART said they are still assessing Northern Water Solutions application. “I can confirm that we did receive a submission from Solo Water and we are considering it, along with the other submissions, as part of our assessment of the licence application for the Cobaki Estate,” the spokesperson said. “It is common practice for IPART to seek additional information from licence applicants during the assessment process, and this would is also be the case on this occasion. “We are currently assessing the licence application and will assess any additional information provided before providing a final recommendation to the Minister. It is not possible to say when that will be.”

Aveo chief fields Mountain View freehold questions

AVEO EXECUTIVE Director and CEO Geoff Grady has clarified that the Mountain View Retirement Village in Murwillumbah is administered under NSW Strata Legislation after several residents had raised concerns that Aveo’s head office is based in Brisbane. Mr Grady fielded several questions from The Weekly following further concerns that Aveo had intentions to take over (buy back) the Mountain View Village from the Strata Freehold residents, as well outlining the current ratio of freehold homes to Aveo homes. Mr Grady said since early 2015, Aveo has been selling units under its “simplified Aveo Way contract”. “This contract offers residents a number of benefits, including a longer than standard settling-in period and the removal of variable exit costs such as refurbishments and sales commissions,” he said. “Importantly, it also offers a buy back of the unit after six months (in NSW) of a unit being vacated by a resident. “Our Aveo Way contract is sold under a 99 year lease. This means that over the coming years, as units continue to sell at Aveo Mountain View, the volume of Aveo Way units will grow. “While the freehold vs leasehold debate is often spoken about, we’ve found that after being taken through our Aveo Way contract, purchasers prefer the certainty the Aveo Way contract brings over a freehold arrangement.” Meanwhile residents continue to share their experiences at the Mountain View village as focus switches to a review of the Retirement Villages Regulation by NSW Fair Trading. Many residents believe vital changes are needed to the Federal Government’s aged care legislation to further protect the elderly. The aged care legislation is also under more scrutiny this month following announcements that the Qld Government has fast-tracked sweeping changes to its aged care legislation

in a bid to curb profiting at the expense of the elderly, as revealed in the joint ABC Four Corners and Fairfax report titled “Bleed Them Dry Until They Die”. For another perspective Mountain View resident and secretary and advocacy officer David Paton wrote to The Weekly on Monday highlighting that retirement villages are like any other businesses “driven by profit”. Mr Paton said he has lived in retirement villages for more than thirteen years and most recently at Mountain View Retirement Village. With his experiences of retirement living in both Qld and NSW, Mr Paton said retirement venues compete on the open market for the retirement dollar and are similar regarding facilities. “Retirement services is an industry and like any other industry, it must make a profit to survive,” he said. “There are no free rides and if we really knew the profit margins being extorted from the public generally, we may find that we are all being ripped off all the time. “Any doubt about this can be clarified by the power charges now in vogue. “This does not of course excuse any dubious activity by the retirement sector but the root of the problem is the general attitude towards seniors by government and the populous generally. “The writer is still the Secretary and Advocacy Officer for the leading Queensland residential park home owner’s association so I have seen firsthand the retirement industry now that I live in a retirement village. I repeat, there are no free rides.” Mr Paton said the root of the problem is the legislation but he wanted to add that the marketing practices of retirement venues was also in need of addressing. “All is not what it seems,” he said. “The States are responsible for the legislative processes relating to the retirement industry and the writer, with many others having spent

twelve years trying to get government to strike a fair balance of interest between the parties. “That is, retirement venue proprietors and those of us that enter into lease agreements with them. “The association I work with put forward the suggestion some years ago that the ageing population is a Federal Government issue and the whole of the retirement industry should come under the “Aged Care Act”. “After all, it’s the Federal Government that controls and allocates our pensions. Get the State Governments out of the industry. We then have just one government to deal with.” In closing Mr Paton said he was content with living at Mountain View. “For my part, I am quite content living at Aveo Mountain View Retirement Village,” he said. Aged Care is managed by the Federal Government, whereas Retirement Villages are regulated by NSW legislation. Retirement Village legislation is currently being reviewed and NSW Fair Trading are currently calling for the public to have their say on the draft Regulation, which supports the operation of the Retirement Villages Act 1999.

for those seeking to enter a retirement village,” A NSW Fair Trading spokesperson told The Weekly. “We are currently proposing a number of improvements in this space through the current review of the Retirement Villages Regulation, which is open for public comment until July 20. “A simple online survey is available on the Fair Trading website for people to provide their feedback and comments on the proposed law changes. “If people have any specific examples of alleged misconduct, they should contact Fair Trading on 13 32 20. “NSW is already seen as having among the best standards in the country. “For example, the most recent update to the legislation was in October 2013, when standard retirement village contracts were introduced that set out residents’ and operator’s rights and obligations in a clear, standardised format. “The standard contract covers matters such as what residence rights are involved, entry costs, the settling-in period, recurrent charges, services and facilities, alterations and additions, repairs and maintenance, sharing of capital gains, and departure fees. “New requirements for disclosure statements were also introduced in 2013 that contains more detailed and specific information, including financial arrangements particular to the village and unit. “The disclosure statement must be provided to prospective residents at least 14 days before they can sign a contract to assist residents in making informed decisions.”

Read the responses from the NSW Fair Trading:

“Regulation of the retirement village sector is an important focus for the NSW Government and it continues to lead the nation by striving for greater disclosure and therefore transparency

This is a question parents of Preschool aged children think and talk about a lot. What can I do to prepare my child for school? The most important thing to consider when answering this question concerns your child’s social and emotional development. Children need to learn how to cope when away from their main care givers, how to make friends, and how to successfully negotiate outcomes during play and other interactions. Once children are socially and emotionally comfortable they are ready to learn.

New lentil burger bar opens in Murwillumbah THE MENTAL Lentil Burger Bar will open this Saturday, July 15, at the old Flamingo Café site at 91 Murwillumbah Street, adding another delicious vegetarian food option to the Tweed Valley. Owners and married couple Terry and Tracey Vine (pictured below) have always wanted to open a small business and decided on Murwillumbah after falling in love with the town. Originally from England, the couple moved to Australia in 1992 and had lived on the Gold Coast for the past 12 years. Having returned earlier this year from a six-month contract living and working in Saigon, Vietnam, they decided on settling in Murwillumbah. “Over the years we always found our weekends revolved around riding (motorcycles) or driving to northern NSW and we fell for the stunning countryside and the slower pace of life and nicer people,” Terry said. “Being a fair old jaunt for work for the both of us, we decided that if we were to move to Murwillumbah we would have to consider a new business venture locally.

“We’ve always wanted to open a ‘cafe-style’ business, but not quite a café.” The Mental Lentil Burger Bar is based around healthy and tasty vegetarian foods with a name that conjures up a fun and modern place to visit. The business will also offer Merlo Coffee in the “coffee corner” as well as a juice bar known as the “juice joint”. “The old Flamingo cafe has been totally remodelled with a trendy bar-style sitting area inside and a casual traditional sitting area outside in the Alfresco spot,” Terry said. “Inside, the design and fit out is both interesting and unique with a featured ‘mental’ ceiling. “We want to create a real trendy vibe in a modern environment and at the same time offer something a little different on the menu.” The days of Yacht design and building is now behind Terry and Tracey who has recently finished work at Palm Beach/Currumbin high school where she was an executive assistant to the Principal. Opening date is scheduled for this Saturday, July 15.

Beaver gives youngster a boost

A happy local Colts player with David Devine from GIO Murwillumbah who passed on the bag for Beaver

RUGBY LEAGUE legend Steve ‘Beaver’ Menzies visited the Tweed Coast last week to fire up the NSW Blues side before Origin III as part of the Blues training camp. While visiting, Beaver caught up with GIO Murwillumbah principal David Devine to talk about the Tweed floods and the impact that continues to be felt across the Shire. GIO are a major sponsor of the NSW Blues and have a close relationship with the club and its members. Mr Devine said youngster Lachlan Nott and his family lost everything in the flood and they were forced to swim to safety at the Murwillumbah railway station, before being rescued at about 2am by local SES. “When I was in the NSW Origin Camp hosted by Steve, he asked me how the town was recovering,” Mr Devine said. “I told him about the devastation and recovery efforts.” After Beaver left the Mantra hotel for his flight to Sydney on Saturday, July 8, he sent Mr Devine a text saying that he’d left something at the front desk that he hoped could find someone worthy to give to. “Colts under 14s coach Jake Vickery told me about Lachlan,” Mr Devine said. The bag was handed on to Jake who found a bunch of Blues’ supporter gear and merchandise and was greatly appreciated by the family and Colts club.

Hendra virus prompts vaccine talks

“Do not place feed and water under trees and cover feed and water containers with a shelter so they cannot be contaminated from above.” Meanwhile, Tweed Heads veterinarian Dr Greg Baldwin, who owns and operates Baldwin Equine Veterinary Service, has highlighted to the importance of vaccines for both animals but more importantly humans. Dr Baldwin also refuted claims that the vaccine had resulted in the deaths of more horses than Hendra virus. “There have been no known deaths from the Hendra virus vaccine,” he said. “However, a small percentage of horses have had a reaction to the vaccine.” Dr Baldwin said it was important horse owners get the vaccine to allow vets to treat the horse without having to get prior tests. “If a horse is showing signs of sickness but has not have the Hendra vaccine, it means we have to test the horse first which can take time and means the horse is not being treated immediately.” If your horse is unwell, keep people and other animals away from the horse and call your private veterinarian immediately. If your vet is unavailable you can call a District Veterinarian with the Local Land Services or the Animal Biosecurity Emergency Hotline on 1800 675 888. For more information about Hendra virus visit DPI’s website.

Feeling Dizzy?

You could have a balance or vestibular disorder

BALANCE is easily taken for granted. However when the fragile vestibular organs of the inner ear and brain are damaged by illness or injury, anyone can lose their ability to balance.

o achieve good physical balance, we rely on our brain, eyes, innerear, and musculoskeletal system to work in harmony. Balance disorders are typically under diagnosed and undertreated. More than 1/3 of adults aged 40 years and older experience vestibular dysfunction at some point in their lives. Common symptoms of vestibular disorders include vertigo and dizziness. Vertigo is a spinning or whirling sensation, or an illusion of the self or world moving. Dizziness is a lightheaded, floating or rocking sensation. Poor balance, nausea, visual disturbances, headache, hearing loss, tinnitus, and pain or fullness in the ears can accompany vestibular disorders.

HOW CAN YOUR OSTEOPATH HELP? There are many causes of dizziness or vertigo. But most types of vestibular disorders can be diagnosed by means of a thorough medical history and clinical examination. The most common type of vertigo is Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), and once diagnosed is easily treated with repositioning manoeuvres, with a success rate of 90%. Another type of vertigo encountered is Cervicogenic Vertigo, which is due to a dysfunction in the neck. Again once diagnosed, it can be easily treated with Osteopathic intervention. Your Osteopath can diagnose most of the common types of vestibular disorders and can either treat the condition or refer on for further diagnosis and treatment. Dr Rudi Gerhardt B.Sc., D.O.

HORSE OWNERS across the Tweed Shire are being urged to vaccinate their animals after the NSW Department of Primary Industries (DPI) confirmed a Hendra virus infection in an unvaccinated horse near Lismore last week. The 11-year-old gelding was the first case of Hendra virus for NSW this year and has prompted strong messages for owners to remain vigilant with vaccines. NSW Chief Veterinary Officer Dr Christine Middlemiss, said the Northern NSW property was placed under movement restrictions by Local Land Services. “Samples from the horse were sent by a private veterinarian for laboratory analysis at DPI’s Elizabeth Macarthur Agricultural Institute (EMAI) and results from testing at EMAI confirmed the Hendra virus last night,” Dr Middlemiss said. “The 11-year-old gelding was euthanased near Lismore last night by the Local Land Services district veterinarian.” Dr Middlemiss said the horse was noticeably lethargic on Thursday, July 6, and by Friday, July 7, the horse was not eating and was wobbly on its feet. “There has been a case of Hendra virus in the area before,” Dr Middlemiss said. “All known Hendra virus cases have occurred in Queensland or northern NSW, but cases could occur wherever there are flying foxes or in horses that had recent contact with flying foxes prior to movement.” The DPI media release said all horse owners should discuss a Hendra virus vaccination strategy with their veterinarian. “Vaccination remains the most effective way of reducing the risk of Hendra virus infection in horses, but good biosecurity and personal hygiene measures should always be practiced in conjunction with it,” Dr Middlemiss said. “Horses should also be kept away from flowering and fruiting trees that are attractive to flying foxes.

Crime spree on the Tweed Coast hits hard

THOUSANDS OF dollars’ worth of tools were stolen from a Casuarina job site on Monday, July 10, leaving several tradespeople without the tools or money to start work alongside several other reports of theft on the coast during the past week. Several tradespeople also spoke to The Weekly on Tuesday and said job sites were being increasingly targeted for tools and equipment and there’s calls for an increase in police numbers to curb the illegal activity. Site foreman Murray Sinclair of Best of Builders said that job site thefts were occurring across the Tweed Shire and had increased so much they’re placing the lives of local families at risk. The site was one of three that were allegedly targeted by the thieves and included Casuarina, Pottsville and South Murwillumbah. Mr Sinclair said there was about $15,000 worth of tools stolen from the Casuarina job site alone including high end drills, saws, grinders, jack hammers, concrete cutting saws and more. The tools were locked in a container on site at Casuarina, but the lock was believed to have been broken using a prying tool to leverage the lock. “It has become really bad across the Tweed Shire,” Mr Sinclair said. “We’ve had one apprentice who’s now had his tools stolen twice and he’s had to pay almost $3,000 to replace them – he couldn’t work because they stole his tool belt and all his tools.” Mr Sinclair said none of the tradespeople had insurance due to the high price to cover tradespeople on multiple sites. “They even took the handwash on site,” he said. Mr Sinclair said the thieves stole a trailer at the Casuarina site and then dumped the trailer behind Pottsville. “They stripped all the electricals out of the trailer and took the lights, the whole thing was gutted,” he said. Mr Sinclair said he believed the tools would be transported outside of the Tweed towards Sydney or Brisbane, where they can be resold with less likelihood of detection. The builder at the Casuarina job site is now offering a $2,000 reward for anyone who can help lead to a conviction of the thieves. This follows a bizarre theft at a Cabarita Beach store on Sunday, June 18, that has prompted an investigation by Tweed Police, with officers appealing for information to locate a dark coloured Nissan Cube believed to have been

used in the robbery. The clothing shop was broken into on Tweed Coast Road at about 5am and a witness told Kingscliff Police officers they had heard noises and attempted to investigate. “The witness confronted a male in the driveway of the premises walking away with a shopping trolley containing swimwear,” police said. Police said the witness continued walking towards a Nissan Cube. “The man opened his vehicle, armed himself with a tomahawk and confronted the witness. The witness, fearing for their safety retreated inside the apartment building,” police said. The Tweed Coast has also been hit by scammers with local police appealing for public assistance to identify two men who allegedly stole several hundreds of dollars from the Woolworths at Bogangar in a cash register scam on Saturday, July 8. Police said about 2.20pm the two men approached the checkout and asked a staff member to make change from several hundred dollar notes The two men then confused the staff by distracting them and changing their requests several times, and as a result defrauded the store of hundreds of dollars. For more details and CCTV images of the Nissan Cube and cash register scammers see Police Beat on page 48.

PRINCESS SALE & CRUISE INFORMATION NIGHTS

Dawn on war path over TAFE NSW GREENS Member of the Legislative Council Dawn Walker will visit the Murwillumbah TAFE campus on Tuesday, July 18, as part of her ‘Teachers Not Terminals’ tour in what she said was to “expose the NSW LiberalNational’s agenda to close TAFE campuses and replace them with pop-up shopfronts”. Although denied by the NSW State Government, Mrs Walker MLC said she was attempting to uncover what she said was an attempt to replace TAFE infrastructure with online learning hubs in a TAFE sell-off. “The National Party has been working hard to sell their new ‘digital TAFE hubs’ known as Connected Learning Centres, but I’ll be heading to town to expose their real agenda, which is to sell-off our TAFE campuses, cut teaching staff and replace face-to-face learning with online modules in tacky shopfronts,” Mrs Walker said. “This will have a devastating impact on learning outcomes for many students, especially those requiring extra support services.” Mrs Walker said she had already toured around parts of NSW and is finding TAFE campuses being replaced. “I’ve already visited the first TAFE shopfront in Dapto, near Wollongong where a once-thriving TAFE campus with 650 students has been replaced with a pop-up shopfront with no library, no toilets and minimal support for students,” she said. “It’s embarrassing quite frankly, and regional communities should be very alarmed about this Government’s ongoing attempts to undermine our public TAFE system. “I look forward to visiting communities in New England and the Northern Rivers where new Connected Learning Centres are going to be built, so I can meet first-hand with local teachers, students and concerned community members to discuss the Nationals’ agenda to close our TAFE campus.” Dawn Walker will stop outside the Murwillumbah TAFE campus at 11am on Tuesday, July 18.

Rising cabaret star set to perform at Tyalgum Taste and listen at the Murwillumbah Markets theatre and theatre in the last couple of years. David is currently one half of the “Giggle and Hoot” show on ABC TV. Last year he won great reviews in the play “Flood” at the Old 505 Theatre in Sydney and toured for a year around Australia with Brainstorm Theatre. Most recently David has been touring with singing group “The Vallies”. He has wanted to take on the world of cabaret for some time and this is his first full show. Leading strongly with the traditions set by some of the great jazz and swing performers including Michael Buble, Bobby Darin and Robbie Williams, David’s show also features some classic music theatre standards and some songs from the hottest new Broadway Tony award winning musical hit “Dear Evan Hansen”. David is joined on this journey with one of Australia’s leading musical directors, the amazing Andrew Worboys, fresh from his success with “Little Shop of Horrors” and “Cabaret” both at the Hayes Theatre, as well as the recent tour with West End star Belinda Wollaston and just before he begins his work on two new Hayes productions “Assasins” and “High Fidelity”. David and Andrew make quite a dynamic duo, not to be missed. “We are so thrilled to be welcoming Andrew back to Tyalgum for this new

show. He is one of Australia’s very best musical directors” said Solar Chapel. David Simes’ cabaret show in Tyalgum will be presented on Saturday, August 5, in the intimate surrounds of Flutterbies Cottage Cafe’s Little Shop Next Door. Tapas and a Champagne Cocktail will be served at 6pm. Show starts at 7:30pm. Tapas, a Champagne Cocktail & Show package is $75. All bookings and enquiries contact Hearts Aflame Productions on 0488 713 241 or book online delovelytyalgum.eventbrite. com.au

By Rosemary Beard of GreyRose Photographics MUSIC IS making a lot of difference to the sense of community at the Murwillumbah Farmers Markets every Wednesday. The Cougals, Mt Nullum, and Mt Warning frame the Showground and provide the perfect place to display the musical talent of the area. Each Wednesday a new artist is able to busk and share their music. The crowd is diverse but all enjoy the ambience that the musicians bring. Basking in the morning sun to the reggae, soul sounds of Jessie Morris certainly gave the morning a lift. His lyrics capture the hope for a beautiful world and has a sound reminiscent of John Butler. Even the die-hards have a trouble keeping their feet still. Sue, the market organiser is appreciative of the artists and felt that the sense of community that was found at the markets was a result of the local musicians. Jessie enjoys playing the markets, as it is a very rare daytime gig. The crowds are diverse and he reaches out to an audience that may not usually hear his music. There is an added bonus of fresh produce in return for his gift of music.

CABARET SEEMS to have taken a back seat in Australia in recent times, certainly when it comes to young male performers. The scene for a long time was dominated by a variety of music theatre and cabaret guys as they used the intimacy of cabaret to work on their craft and strengthen their reputation. From this period came David Campbell, Tim Draxl, Kane Alexander, Hayden Tee, Shaun Rennie to name a few. Many of these performers cut their cabaret teeth at the legendary El Rocco Club in Kings Cross in Sydney. So it seems only appropriate to introduce David Simes to the world of Cabaret who will perform at the famed El Rocco together with an opening in the wonderful environs of Flutterbies Cottage Cafe in the magical village of Tyalgum on Saturday, August 5, hosted by Hearts Aflame Productions. “One of the things we are passionate about is nurturing and helping young artistic talent to grow, and have the chance to be produced and supported with our wonderful Tweed audiences,” Hearts Aflame Productions manager Solar Chapel said. “David is a very exciting new Cabaret talent that you really won’t want to miss.” David Simes is a 25-year-old actor singer from the central coast who has made an impression in children’s

Talking Taste Tweed with Jayne Henry

The People You Meet...

FILMS th Mia wi

THE TWEED Shire is a major tourist destination attracting thousands to the area all year round. However, winter is an especially important time, as tourism slows and our accommodation houses are at their lowest capacity. Many residents are former holiday makers from business backgrounds who came, saw and fell in love with the Shire and brought their skills and expertise with them. Tweed Coast local Jayne Henry organiser of the annual “Taste Tweed 10 Day Food Festival” now in its fourth year, came for a laid back coastal holiday 25 years ago and realised the region’s huge potential so she stayed and put her energies into promoting the area and describing the Tweed as “Country by the Sea”. Taste Tweed has become an annual major event capturing today’s emphasis on the freshest of food grown locally. Local cuisine offers a choice of food from steaks to seafood to Chinese to French and the cuisine reflects the diversity of those who have chosen to live here and these local businesses are important to Council. “Small businesses are the core of

successful communities, providing employment, social interaction and leading to community cohesion,” Jayne tells me. Jayne, an event organiser, began by joining the Kingscliff and District Chamber of Commerce and becoming more involved with the local businesses on the coast. She was later elected as President of the Chamber and, assisted by the executive, worked to reopen the Kingscliff Visitor Information Centre. She believes the strength and heartbeat of every successful community lies in the small businesses that operate, service and employ local people. The food festival was first launched in 2014 as a 10-day event, prior to this, previous campaigns were the Long Table Dinner and a few smaller events in 2012 and 2013 as prelude to Taste being a stand-alone event. This included operating events during the Tweed Foodie Festival which Jayne assisted Festival Director Kerry Turner with the initial set up of Tweed Foodie Fest Inc where she held position of Chairperson, lobbying Tweed Shire Council for funding and support. Taste was also part of the event business plan she put forth to council in 2011 for the Kingscliff Night Market; producing a series of coastal events with the branding Taste Tweed. Previous experience in similar events include the development of Loving

SEVERAL WATER SPORT events are taking place across the Tweed Shire this weekend including at Kingscliff Beach for the the Australian Inflatable Rescue Boat Championships. Rescue Club crews consisting of a driver, crewperson and patient do battle in the 25-horse power, outboard engine powered inflatable rubber boats across a number of events including single rescue, mass rescue, teams race, tube rescue race and others. The event was expected to attract around 750 competitors to battle

it out over three day starting today (Thursday, July 13) to Saturday, July 15. Cudgen Headland Surf Life Saving Club President Adam Mills said Thursday would be the check-in day. “Thursday (July 13) will be the check-in day for equipment and teams, ensuring everyone’s equipment is equally matched, like the Formula One,” Mr Mills said. “The Friday will be State vs State and Saturday will be the club’s competition.” But that’s not all for watersports this weekend with the Tweed River coming

CHURCHILL Like the movie Neruda that showed us the ‘dark’ side of a wonderful poet, the movie Churchill displays the weak side of a great politician. The story takes place during the 96 hours leading up to D-Day, when British Prime Minister Winston Churchill is convinced that the massive plan code-named Operation Overlord - set to start on June 6, 1944, with 250,000 Allied troops invading the beaches of Normandy - will end in lots of casualties and defeat for the Allied forces and therefore tries unsuccessfully to convince his allies to abandon the plan. The film condenses into four days the months of doubts and debates by the 69 year-old Churchill who after the disaster of the Gallipoli campaign in WWI thought that Operation Overlord would result in similar carnage. But eventually he had to give in to the opinion of his peers and his American ally: because while Churchill still thought of himself as a warrior and the wise and fearless leader who led Britain through the Blitz, what he was really fighting was the new world order. It was America’s war now — Churchill was just living in it. Only delicate flattering by his long-suffering wife, Clementine (played by Miranda Richardson) can bring Churchill back to common sense and patriotic duty. Clementine understands that he has greatness in him, but that in other ways he’s also a needy, thin-skinned, tantrumthrowing child clinging to the past.

The film stars Brian Cox in the role of the statesman, a role that has been played before by many other great actors including Albert Finney and Richard Burton.

Living Local and the first night market for the Tweed, Kingscliff Night Market. Other Festival and Event management positions include Salt Village Carols, Cooly Rocks On, Cudgen Bull and Bronc Spectacular and the Long Table Dinner Series. Taste Tweed is now moving into its fourth year in its ten day format (July 14 to July 23) and has in its first three years, through conducting professional destination research economic impact studies, injected more than $1 million into the local economy. “It is through the ongoing support of the Tweed Shire Council, our corporate sponsors, Chambers of Commerce, local business owners and our local community, that this event has continued to grow and improve,” Jayne said “We are extremely grateful for the opportunity to promote, not only our local businesses but our region.” “It is imperative that we support and promote small business as it is the life and blood of our regional and coastal communities providing employment, social interaction and leads to community spirit and co-operation “Small business is the largest employer of locals and important for the next generation as well as being an economic driver for the future.” Taste Tweed events continue on the coast until July 23, check the website for event details: tastetweed.com.au

Initiative to curb Tweed’s plastic bags

Exhibition & Trading Fair

BOOMERANG BAGS are now available from the Tweed Valley Way IGA allowing customers who forget their own bags to borrow and return them in a bid to curb plastic bag use. The initiative puts trust in the shopper by giving the bag away, but the program’s nation-wide success and adoption has prompted support for the program. The initiative was launched by not-forprofit Let’s Waste Less who said the launch coincided with Plastic Free July at the Tweed Valley IGA on Wednesday, July 12, at 9am. Boomerang Bags aim to reduce plastic bag use by engaging local communities to sew ‘Boomerang Bags’ using recycled materials. Following Wednesday’s launch, these bags will be available to borrow from Tweed Valley Way IGA with two other outlets to be announced. Let’s Waste Less co-founder Andia Cally said the aim was to share the bags and to encourage a shift away from the single use, throw away mentality, towards a more sustainable repurposed and reuse approach. “Since May the local not-for-profit has

hosted monthly sewing bees at Sathya Sai Primary School, making more than 100 bags and attracting a dedicated group of sewers, screen printers, cutters and ironers of all ages, from all walks of life, each with a passion for banning the bag,” she said. “We wouldn’t be able to do this without the support of dedicated community members and retail outlets like IGA. “On the back of Boomerang Bags we have seen some other great initiatives, including Sathya Sai’s successful pitch to get local businesses to host soft plastic bins in July and collective pressure on Coles that was instrumental in Murwillumbah Coles becoming official an RedCycle outlet.” It’s estimated that 10 million plastic bags are used per day in Australia with most discarding them after an average of 12 minutes. The first plastic bag you ever used is likely still out there as they can take centuries to break down and often end up in the ocean with devastating effects on marine life. Let’s Waste Less’ next sewing bee is at Sathya Sai School on Saturday, July 22.

Combined Rotary Club helping flood affected residents back on their feet

MURWILLUMBAH’S THREE Rotary Clubs have reflected on a consorted effort across the shire to assist residents recovering from the Tweed floods. Rotary District 9640, together with Murwillumbah’s three Rotary Clubs, The Rotary Club of Murwillumbah; The Rotary Club of Murwillumbah Central and The Rotary Club of Mt Warning AM; have come together to offer assistance to some of the flood affected people in the local area. Peter McDonald, of Mt Warning AM, who is the chairman of the Flood Relief Group, told The Weekly that members have assisted a number of families in the Murwillumbah community, providing essential items to help restore their daily life to normality following the devastating flood. So far, the Flood Relief Group has provided a variety of assistance to people/families in dire need, including accommodation, replacement white goods, new clothing, bedding, blankets etc. “So many people have lost so much” Mr McDonald said. “But in the midst of this adversity they

are doing what they can to get on with their lives, and we commend them for their strength and resilience in soldiering through. “It has been heart-warming to be able to offer a little in the way of assistance.” “We are very pleased that other Rotary Clubs within District 9640 also rallied to provide support and contribute funds to help us to provide this community assistance following the catastrophic event.” Peter said. Mr McDonald said some people lost everything they had. “Rotary’s support has been gratefully received by those who have been assisted,” he said. “Many have commented how the assistance has helped to restore their self-esteem and given them a sense of belonging to a caring community.” The local Rotary Clubs said they were proud to be able to offer back to their local community. “It has been an opportunity for them to demonstrate their ability to act locally, providing a useful community service and practical assistance to local people in need,” he said.

34 NRL Footy Tipping Competition Thursday July 13 - 2017

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Footy What makes the best so good? at the with Quinny I believe there are several factors. Having been recently to watch the best 200 u/15 year old kids in the country play the sheer statistics are that 5 of these boys will play NRL and only 1 will make a genuine career. Three years later and the best in the country at 18 the Australian Schoolboys only 1/5 will make an NRL career. So what sets the great players apart. I can only go back as far as Lewis, Meninga, Kenny, Clyde etc but I think Fittler, Johns, Lockyer, Tallis, Webcke, Renouf, Buderus and now Thurston, Smith, Cronk, Gallen – but I believe they all have something in common. There is a quote in the movie The Replacements by coach Jimmy McGinty, he says ‘Winners always want the ball... when the game is on the line’. I really believe this, all the greats want the footy, the clutch play, the needed

play, the look from their team mates for ‘something’ play. Lockyer was the best, always producing the clutch play, but Cronk and Thurston are not far behind. They all possess a will to win that is unrivalled. A competitive nature that doesn’t let them lose. I read a quote about Lockyer and he said he possessed this internal ‘fear of failure’. I think they all do. The effort starts at training and wanting to train hard, wanting to be fitter, faster, stronger and more skillful. Effort requires zero skill, it never has and it never will. The look or comment from that player when you haven’t met your task, the feeling of confidence when that player is getting dressed across from you in the change room, yet they can’t do it all on their own. I use the saying all the time that ‘footy is not golf’, if you want to be and

play like an individual you are in the wrong sport. It’s a team game, a team effort, a team reward. If you are cutting corners (apart from going around in circles) you a shortchanging yourself, your team and your club. The best never have, never will. Teams and clubs for that matter win together and lose together and friendships last forever. Each individual just needs to make sure he/she is contributing to their team. Charity game this week versus Cudgen. Unfortunately the Hornets didn’t have the funds to enter a ladies team so it’s just the three grades at Stan Sercombe Saturday afternoon. The Stangs will wear a special strip to raise money for the Tweed Flood appeal in the Grand Final rematch. Should be a great arvo. See you at the footy, Quinny

River health report finds upstream issues

OPPOSITE ENDS of the Tweed River are at opposite ends of the river health spectrum, according to two recent water quality studies undertaken by Tweed Shire Council. Council’s Waterways Program Leader Tom Alletson said that downstream towards the river mouth, the lower estuary is a healthy and wellfunctioning ecosystem and gets an ‘A’ for water quality compliance. “In contrast, the Rous River and creeks feeding the broadwaters have poorer water quality,” he said in a council media release. Council commissioned the two water quality assessments as background studies for a new Tweed River Estuary Management Program. Both examined compliance with aquatic ecosystem protection targets for the Tweed River and TerranoraCobaki Broadwaters between 2012 and 2016. “Water samples were collected monthly at approximately 30 sites, from the river mouth to Murwillumbah, up the Rous River to Kynnumboon, and from Boyd’s Bay up into the broadwaters,” Mr Alletson said. “Water in the lower estuary is highly influenced by the ocean during daily tides, whereas the upper reaches of the estuary are more influenced by the quality of runoff from developed land. “Unfortunately degradation of small streams in our upper catchment has a detrimental impact on water quality downstream.” He said additional evaluations of the Tweed Estuary ecosystem would include assessments of seagrass and riverside vegetation. “This will complement last year’s

survey of community values and uses of the river. Together, they will ensure a broad range of management actions can be devised and implemented through the new river management plan,” Mr Alletson said. The Water Quality Assessment includes strategies to improve water quality in the Tweed River estuary over time, and increase public awareness of the issues. Actions to be considered for inclusion in the management plan include: • Working with floodplain land owners to improve the quality of water in agricultural drains. • Reducing the discharge of nutrients from the Murwillumbah Wastewater Treatment Plant into the Rous River. • Community education about highrisk times for swimming because of water quality. • Restricting stock access to river banks throughout the whole Tweed River catchment.

• Revegetation of river banks, particularly in the Rous River. To read the full reports or for further information, visit yoursaytweed.com. au/tweed-river-estuary A report on Your Say Tweed stated that “maintaining the environmental health of the river is essential to sustain all its beneficial uses by the community”. “It can be difficult to balance recreational, commercial and environmental priorities in a busy and popular waterway like the Tweed River, particularly in the face of population growth and rising sea levels,” the report reads. The key requirement of the management plan is to determine actions that can be implemented by Council, government agency stakeholders and the community to achieve the right balance between the many different uses and to protect nature, scenic and recreational values, livelihoods and cultural practices.

New water assessments have found varying results in the health of the Tweed River

Anger over battery theft THE SIXTH battery to be stolen from a temporary traffic light on Hogans Road, Upper Duroby has again placed motorists at risk, cost ratepayers and is driving council staff bonkers. Council said in a media statement that thieves stole the batteries on Saturday, July 8, and also caused extensive damage to the lights, which could delay repairs by several weeks. “Council has provided what protection it can to motorists by installing a ‘give-way’ sign at the end of the section that provides the greatest sight distance of the road ahead, plus placed small blinking lights at either end of the landslip. The landslip also is barriered off,” Council said in a media statement. Acting Senior Construction Engineer Bob Hanby said the only other alternative was to close the road at the landslip which would force residents to make a long detour around. This is the sixth pair of batteries that have been stolen from temporary traffic lights and electronic sign boards over the past two months. “Every time this happens motorists are placed at risk of meeting another vehicle head-on on a one-way section and being forced out on to a landslip area that may not hold,” he said. “The community should be outraged that these thieves are placing them at a heightened risk of having a serious accident or being unduly inconvenienced by a road trafficable under one-way conditions being closed due to safety concerns. “Please report all suspicious behaviour around our worksites and depots by phoning Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or Council’s after hours number 1800 818 326. Don’t confront the thieves, just make that call and give what information you can to the police. “A vehicle parked near roadworks at night is suspicious; a vehicle towing a trailer with plant in the back at night is suspicious.”

Offshore: still heaps of pan size mixed species on most close reefs off the coast. Sullies, 18fathoms, focus reef, tweed reefs, kingy reefs, reefs east of the jumpinpin all producing good pan size fish up to mid 60cm. The bigger snaps have been sitting in that deeper water like 24’s, 36’s, 40’s, 50’s, cape Moreton, reefs, off of point look out and right out to 200m, 80g - 200g micro jigs and octa jigs working better out wide. Plastics and drifting “bait n go” whole or half pilchards working better in close. Still the odd kingy and cobia hanging around. Always worth soaking a live bait while flicking plastics. Big mulloway on isolated bombies and wrecks, live pike seem to be the go. Tailor at the back side of the breaking waves on most beaches. Bait at sand pumping jettys, point reef, snapper reef, bait grounds off Southport and around Kingscliff reef for all your bait needs. Estuary: with a bit of rain around today it should see the Jew fish fire up and on the hunt. Live pike and big mullet seem to be catching the bigger Jew and it never hurts having a big plastics set up while soaking your livie. Heaps of bream around most bridges, holes, rock bars, rock walls and river mouths. Drift baits, small plastics and crab lures working best and are a lot of fun on light gear. Still heaps of GT and big eye around most bridges and rock walls. The run in tide with blade, hard and soft vibes and small metals catching more this week. Still a few big flathead around the shallow sand bars, weed beds, drop off and river mouths. Plastics catching the better fish this week. A few tailor sitting in the current lines in most rivers and bays. Beach: the tailor are starting to come on the bite more and more ever week, with some good fish taken this week off the beach.

Featured Business

Swap a Bottle is a locally family owned & operated Lp Gas supply business which prides itself on great service and competitive pricing. Based at 10 Kite Crescent Murwillumbah, we service all over the local area with distributors also based from the Gold Coast to the Tweed Coast. We offer “no Rental” fees on our cylinders and you can even drop in and pick up a large gas bottle and have your own bbq bottle filled onsite for $20 while you wait! Amy and I were born & raised in Lismore NSW, Moving to the Tweed over 20 years ago. After almost 30 years continued work for a large gas corporation it was time to start our own small gas business while starting our own family. We started small in gas fitting then moved into outdoor heater hire and gas supply to restaurants. With such support & demand we broadened into gas swab cages and then eventually the large 45kg cylinders. It’s been rewarding having our family grow alongside our business. Both of our children enjoy local sports and as such we’ve been proud sponsors of Seagulls Jrl and Bilambil Touch Association for many years.

Has Your Hot Water System Been Checked Lately? Ever Heard of a Sacrificial Anode?

A sacriﬁcial anode is a vital part of your water system, and having it inspected can be the difference between an efﬁciently working system and a costly replacement. Manufacturers recommend that you maintain the anode in your system in order to prevent damage from rust + corrosion. THE ANODE IN YOUR SYSTEM SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO CORRODE AWAY, WHATEVER TYPE OR BRAND OF SYSTEM YOU HAVE SOLAR, ELECTRIC, GAS OR HEAT PUMPS Cutaway section of a typical electric hot water heater

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

POLICE BEAT Police appeal to identify cash register scammers

KINGSCLIFF POLICE are appealing for public assistance to identify two men who allegedly stole several hundreds of dollars from the Woolworths at Bogangar in a cash register scam. Police said about 2.20pm on Saturday, July 8, the two men approached the checkout and asked a staff member to make change from several hundred dollar notes The two men then confused the staff by distracting them and changing their requests several times, and as a result defrauded the store of hundreds of dollars. Police said this scam has also taken place in Ballina and Southern Queensland. “People pulling this scam tend to target younger and inexperienced staff,” Police said in a media statement. “They will often ask them make change for a large amount of money, then make several changes to their orders while distracting them. “Police are asking the managers of the larger stores to speak to their staff about this issue.” If you can identify either of these two men please contact Kingscliff Police Station on 6674 9399 or Crimestoppers on 1800 333 000. Police reference is E63866520#LismoreScamWatch

TWEED POLICE are appealing for public assistance to locate John Beveridge, who has two outstanding arrest warrants and may be involved in several frauds, stolen vehicles and break-and-enters. Tweed Police said Beveridge, 42, has recently been in Byron Bay, Murwillumbah, Banora Point and Tweed Heads whilst Queensland Police suggest he has been visiting a number of suburbs between Coolangatta and Underwood (Brisbane).

Police crackdown on Tweed bikie gangs Man wields a tomahawk after

TWEED POLICE have carried out a series of property raids across the Tweed Shire in a coordinated crackdown on bikie gangs after recent violent acts were believed to be related to tension between rival clubs. A member of the Tweed Heads chapter of the Lone Wolf Outlaw Motorcycle Gang (OMCG) was charged in the cross-border operation on Thursday, July 6. The raids were carried out by officers from Tweed/Byron Local Area Command under Strike Force Walenore with the assistance of the Gangs Squad’s Strike Force Raptor, Public Order Riot Squad, Queensland Police attached to Strike Force Maxima, and the Dog Unit. The operations were designed to proactively target OMCGs in response to recent violent acts “believed to be related to tension between rival clubs,” police said in a joint media statement. The raids were carried out at a unit in Tweed Heads and homes at Tweed Heads West, Urliup, Bogangar, and Kunghur, cannabis was located at the Tweed Heads West and Urliup properties. As part of their ongoing strategies, police conducted searches for firearms, firearms parts, and ammunition at five properties of OMCG members subject to Firearm Prohibition Order’s (FPOs). A 50-year-old man was arrested at Kunghur after allegedly hindering police searching his home in Kunghur. He was also arrested for cultivation of prohibited plants, and possession of a prohibited weapon (knuckle

dusters). The man was taken to Tweed Heads Police Station and subsequently taken by ambulance to Tweed Heads Hospital suffering a medical condition. It’s expected he will be charged at a later date. The raids come after several incidents believed to have involved bikie club members took place across the shire including a brawl at Seagulls and a shooting at Tweed Heads. While police said the two matters were unrelated to bikie gang activity, Tweed/Byron Local Area Command Crime Manager, Detective Inspector Brendon Cullen, said police across the region will continue to work closely with Strike Force Raptor (Qld Police) to reduce the impact of outlaw motorcycle gangs activities. “We will continue to conduct highly-visibility and high-impact operations like this to target and disrupt the activities of outlaw motorcycle gangs and their associates,” Det Insp Cullen said. “The operation highlights how important it is for us to cooperate with other law-enforcement agencies, such as Queensland Police, to ensure members of these groups who break the law face serious ramifications. “The safety of the community is our priority, and we will not tolerate public acts of violence – or any activity – that puts that safety at risk,” Det Insp Cullen said. Strike Force Raptor was established by State Crime Command’s Gangs Squad in 2009. It is a proactive and high-impact operation targeting outlaw motorcycle gangs and any associated criminal enterprises.

stealing swimwear at Cabarita

A BIZARRE theft at a Cabarita Beach store has prompted an investigation by Tweed Police, with officers appealing for information to locate a dark coloured Nissan Cube believed to have been used in the robbery on Sunday, June 18. The clothing shop was broken into on Tweed Coast Road at about 5am and a witness told Kingscliff Police officers they had heard noises and attempted to investigate. “The witness confronted a male in the driveway of the premises walking away with a shopping trolley containing swimwear,” police said. “The male is described as shortish, 5’ 5 tall, 30-35 years of age, light brown hair, wearing light coloured long pants and a hooded jacket. The male possibly had a slight accent.” Police said the witness continued walking towards the Nissan Cube (pictured). “The man opened his vehicle,

armed himself with a tomahawk and confronted the witness. The witness, fearing for their safety retreated inside the apartment building,” police said. Police later obtained CCTV images, which showed the male and the vehicle described. “Inquiries suggest the vehicle of interest is a dark coloured Nissan Cube or similar, with distinctive mag wheels. Of particular note, the passenger side headlight was not working at the time and or was damaged,” police said. “If any member of the public knows the identity of the male, or may know where the vehicle of interest can be located, they can contact the officer in charge, Senior Constable Kumar at Kingscliff Police Station on (02) 6674 9399 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.” Any member of the public wishing to supply information can remain anonymous.

Men’s Results LABRADOR HAD a great start against the Casuarina Sharks with an early goal five minutes in. But the Casuarina Sharks replied with two field goals to Sean Read, both from the top of the circle to hit the lead at half-time. Labrador were a different team in the second half with more intensity to score and with 10 minutes remaining hit the lead to win 3/2. Murwillumbah lacking players went down to Burleigh 3/1. Waratah Bobcats 1 defeated Mudgeeraba 0. A brilliant drag flick from Tim Willis gave his team the edge as the Waratahs attacked most of the game. So much so that the Waratahs Goal Keeper Zac Grace only had to touch the ball once. Kingscliff and Capri played a scoreless first half due to some great goal keeping from Kingscliff’s Sam Laskowski. The game turned around in the second as Kingscliff went on a scoring spree with a goal to Jaron Wilson and then three to Andrew Ridgewell to come away winners 4/0. Griffith Roosters had the bye.

with 40 seconds to go. The Waratahs sent midfielder Bobbie Philip up high and a great defensive tackle by Waratah’s Amy Paron who sent a long pass to Bobbie who eliminated two Burleigh defenders to get in the circle. She dragged the keeper whose tackle put Bobbie on the deck and the Waratahs were rewarded a short corner as the final whistle went. A sweet hit by Stacy Butters put the ball in the net to get the equaliser. Kingscliff had a large scoring affair with Capri as the game was a 4/4 draw with Ella Shultz scoring twice and one each to Erica Wells and Brooke Harvey. Casuarina had a strong game against Labrador and came away winners 2/1 after a Georgina Munroe short corner then a reverse stick shot by Brooke Hawkey put the Casuarina team up 2/0 at half time. Mullumbimby had a 5/3 loss to Capri. Mullum’s Leanne Love had a strong game in defence whilst up front Jenna Lidbetter scored twice and was named player of the match. Murwillumbah went down 4/1 to Mudgeeraba. Murwillumbah who were without three regular first graders also lost more key players during the game as Melissa Johnston and Carly Manning got injured in the first half and then Kellie Roatz in the second half. Without six regular players they were unable to take a win and even though they tried hard they were never really in this game.

Bowls Notes

with Judy Tuckey

DISTRICT CHAMPIONSHIP Singles this year brought about good numbers of contestants in all grades making for a grand competition across the board. While many of the more seasoned contenders were surprisingly taken out in the preliminaries, several of the newer bowlers in the mix certainly made their presence felt throughout the tournament. High quality bowling was a feature throughout all games with the finals in all three principles at Cabarita no exception. In the Opens at Cabarita, the Jim Gibson (Cudgen Leagues) versus Paul Watson (Kingscliff) semi resulted in a hard game for both lads. Whilst Watson had the upper hand throughout the match with a narrow lead, he was able to forge ahead in the closing ends to claim victory with a comfy margin. Tony Lattanzi (Pottsville) and Rowan

Norris (Condong) locked horns in the other semi with Lattanzi (aka “Captain Risky”) being in control at all times to take the game with a solid margin. Lattanzi dominated with a narrow lead during the first half of the final against Watson. However, picking up a four midway, Watson’s game picked up as he then restricted Lattanzi’s attack and went on to take the game six shots up. Reserve Grade semi one at Pottsville between Keith Foran (Cabarita) and Neil McLeod (Ocean Shores) began with both players matching each other, end for end, during the first 13 ends when Foran’s wheels unexpectedly fell off. With his opposition in repair mode, McLeod then stacked up the shots to open a big lead before Foran got going again, held on and closed off the game well in front. The Ben Leeson (Mullumbimby) versus Barry Jones (Cabarita) semi resulted in Leeson taking control from the beginning,

Between the Flags

Cudgen Headland SLSC – Keith Kennedy COMMENCING ON Friday, July 14, Cudgen will host the 2017 Australian Inshore Rescue Boat (IRB) Championships. The Interstate Teams Competition commences at 8.30am on Friday, July 14, and will finish at approximately 11.30am Following medal presentations the InterClub Competition commences through Saturday and Sunday. 948 Officials, Managers and Competitors will arrive at Kingscliff on the Thursday with between 65 to 80 boats expected. The boat’s motors which are 25 horsepower, the propeller guards and rescue tubes have to pass scrutineering. Setting up the craft compound which is on the grass area south of the Surf Club commenced on Wednesday and continues on Thursday. Club volunteers are welcome, sign on attendance sheets are in the club IRB room. Volunteers are also welcome

for the following days of competition for workforce, catering, first aid, tractor and IRB drivers and crew. There are four events to be contested by open men, open ladies, mixed gender in open age, under 23 years and masters (35 years+). Tube rescue is where the crew person has to leave the craft and swim with the rescue tube to a patient and tow the patient back to the craft and return to the beach. This simulates a rescue near rocks or a headland where it is dangerous for the IRB to go too close. The mass rescue is where two or more patients have to be picked up, the single person rescue is an event and a teams’ event uses several drivers and crew. The beach reconstruction of the steps will be completed and sand placed back this week is giving more beach space. The competition area has to be 250 metres in length to accommodate nine boats and be even for all. It will be approximately from the Bowling Club back towards the Surf Club.

and refusing Jones any leeway, claimed victory with a very solid score. The Leeson/ McLeod final was an absolute nail biter as rookie Leeson took control early. McLeod then fired up to take over and hold Leeson at bay. Fighting back strongly, Leeson levelled the score to 27-27. Both lads then scored three shots to be on 30-30. In a heart stopping final end McLeod came home victorious one shot up. Brunswick Heads was the venue for the Over 60s finals. The Ken Coyte (Pottsville) versus Terry Lee (Condong) semi in this principle dragged on for 37 ends. Coyte led most of the way and with the score on 29-22 in his favour, a resurgence from Lee narrowed the gap, but a tad too late, leaving Coyte to succeed three shots up. Semi two and Cabarita’s John Turner duel with Condong’s Dennis Blackadder was an interesting match. Turner was leading most of the way until Blackadder found his mojo, took over and held Turner at bay to close the game with shots up his sleeve. The final in this principle resulted in Coyte keeping Blackadder at arm’s length throughout the contest and claim victory with a comfy margin. Due to the large number of competitors car parking will be limited, particularly south of the Surf Club. Visitors parking is being arranged north of the Bowls Club and arrangements are being made for use of a courtesy bus. Our annual supporters lunch will be held this Friday, July 14 where we celebrate the success of the past season and say thanks to those who have assisted the club financially and in kind. With luncheon on the balcony, it offers excellent viewing of the IRB competition. The club well also host a VIP gathering on Sunday on the balcony which will include Surf Life Saving Australia President Graham Ford. There were flat surf conditions for the Coldies swim last Sunday, with Charlie Buchanan almost nailing it with 45 seconds off his nominated time from Tom Gielis 27 seconds and Judy Luxton 32. Congratulations to Anthea Warne who has been named as Captain of Australia’s Olympic Hopes Canoe Sprint under 16 team after a camp recently at Narrabeen. The team will compete in the Czech Republic later this year. We record the recent passing of Ted Cahill

Tumbulgum Passage Race rescheduled for August

THE Tumbulgum Passage Race will take place on Sunday, August 20, and is the Tweed Valley Sailing Club’s main interclub event of the year. The event first took place in 2014 and putting the event on for the first time was a big undertaking for a club. Tweed Valley Sailing Club commodore Bill Fenelon said the race has grown each year with entrants from Queensland clubs as well as far south as Tamworth. “They’re trying a date later in the season this year to increase the chances of a stronger breeze,” he said. “Last year’s July race had a slow start allowing the crews lots of time to look at the stunning views a trip down the Tweed provides. “As always the wind picks up for the Chinderah leg testing the boats for the final hour of the race.” Mr Fenelon urged the community to come and watch this year’s race with an early start in Condong at Clarrie Purnell Park. “Breakfast will be available for sailors and spectators,” he said. “The boats pass through Tumbulgum between 10am and 11am and as always spectator points will be marked along the route so you can make a day of it taking in some of the Tweed’s best eateries along the way in Tumbulgum and Chinderah ending at Fingal Head from around 2pm for the finish line celebrations. Winter series racing takes a break for the Nev Wilson Classic water ski races on July 15 and 16 and are back for Race 5 on Sunday, July 30. To find out more contact the club via email: tvscmail@ gmail.com or call Commodore Fenelon on 0411 123 405 to find out more about sailing or joining the support team. All welcome, no experience required. Juniors sailing is also held most Sunday mornings at Fingal for ages 8 to 17 for $5 per session - book by email.

Casuarina Barbarians reduced to 13 in tough match By Brian Laybutt

LAST SATURDAY, July 8, Casuarina took on Bangalow at the Casuarina Rugby Field. Bangalow started the game by showing their intentions early - spreading the ball wide to their fleet footed backs. This paid early dividends with a try in the sixth minute of the game. Not long after, a fortuitous bounce from a mid-field kick enabled the Bangalow winger to swoop onto a ball and run 50 metres to post another try. After eleven minutes the visitors had raced to a 12 nil lead. Casuarina regathered and composed themselves to control the ball and string together a number of well constructed phases of play. This was rewarded as hard working prop, Rob Beacroft crashed over to post Casuarina’s first points. With good field position, Casuarina began to apply pressure onto the opposition which was rewarded as, “sharp shooter”, Webb Lillis slotted a penalty goal to narrow the score to 12 -10. Bangalow replied not long after with a penalty goal to push the score, in this seesawing battle, out to 15 -10. In the 33rd minute a crucial referring decision saw James McMahon red carded for an apparent “reckless tackle” and Adam Leach received a highly contentious yellow card. This left the Casuarina team with 13 players. This did not deter the home team who managed to rally the troops and score again through a tenacious run by dynamic back rower Teme Vaudra. The home team hit the lead 17 - 15. With the half time bell imminent, Bangalow scrambled over for a late try, which saw the visitors head into the half time break with a 20 to 17 lead. This set the scene for what was going to be a compelling second half. However an unfortunate chain of events saw a diabolical decision, whereby the referee issued a red card to Adam Leach as he returned to the field having served time in the “bin”, indicating that correct protocol had not been followed as he returned to the field.

After considerable intervention by off field officials and the touch judge, the referee refused to overturn his obvious mistake resulting in Casuarina having to play the second half with 13 players. Once again this setback did not deter the team, as they scored immediately following the send off, as no 8, Timoci Rokosuka crashed over, pushing Casuarina to a 24 - 20 lead. The Casuarina team hung onto the lead but as the game went deep into the second half it became apparent that fatigue was beginning to take its toll. Whilst the Casuarina team lead by its forwards Jack Pick, Rob Beacroft and Neil Hazelman were courageous, the simple lack of player numbers was always going to take its toll. With a flood of possession and the Casuarina players “out on their feet”, Bangalow scored three unanswered tries in the last ten minutes to seal the win. There is no doubt that some dubious refereeing decisions certainly had a significant bearing on the game. Faced with the daunting proposition of playing two thirds of the game with only 13 players the Casuarina team should be commended for their tenacity, commitment and their never say die approach - which is a true reflection of the character of this team and club. Whilst the result may have not been what the Casuarina team were looking for, a big thank you to our growing band of supporters who came along to enjoy local Saturday rugby in the glorious winter sun. Next week the Casuarina boys will take on Southern Cross University in Lismore.
