Tweed road delays and public transport advice

TWEED SHIRE Council has closed Elanora Avenue, between Boronia Avenue and Seabrae Court, Pottsville, for one week beginning Wednesday, October 19 to allow the completion of drainage works. Residents will be allowed access under the direction of stop/slow flagmen. During the closure, Council will install drainage pits along Elanora Avenue to allow surface waters to escape the low-lying area more quickly during rains. The upgrade began in June and works completed to date include: Boronia Avenue resurfaced with kerb and guttering in place, stormwater drainage pipes installed from Cudgera Creek, through North Pottsville Holiday Park (Frangipani Avenue) and across Tweed Coast Road and Frangipani Avenue reconstructed. All works are expected to be completed in about four weeks’ time.

A COMMUNITY information stall will be set up at Tweed City Shopping Centre today (Thursday, October 20) to explain a new public transport website. Bus, taxi and community transport operators will combine with Council and social justice organisation, Social Futures, to host the stall near the Coles Supermarket from 9am - 3pm. The stall will also launch the www.goingplaces.org.au website, showing how to use the site as an easy tool to plan journeys in the Tweed and throughout the Northern Rivers. The site also links to Transport for NSW’s new Trip Planner online service, which enables users to enter their starting point and planned destination and will list options for their journey. It provides estimated travel times and specific service numbers for public transport, with links to booking services.

Mr Rose said the recent works (approximately $25K) involved a floating excavator clearing sediment deposits and removing bottom dwelling weeds from large sections of the canal from behind Birkdale Court, Riversdale Boulevard and Avondale Court. “This addressed concerns with street drainage outlets becoming blocked. Work of this nature is carried out between August to October to minimise impacts on threatened species (Comb crested jacana) that breed in the drainage system,” he said. “Council will undertake noxious weed harvesting in Vintage Lakes beginning late October to target the floating aquatic noxious weed salvinia. “This is the most effective time of the year to undertake this harvesting as it now starting to spread quickly. The floating excavator is not suitable to do work of this nature. “Council considered a report at its July meeting regarding management of the western drainage scheme and resolved to review the operational management plan following an updated survey of jacanas during summer. “Council has allocated $109,000 in 2016/17 for maintenance of the Banora Point Western Drainage Scheme. The majority of this funding will be spent on the salvinia harvest. “Flow in the western drainage scheme is controlled by weirs, so remains a still body of water unless there is a significant rainfall event. It has never been a flowing system. “Unfortunately, this means that runoff from urban properties and streets feeds into the system, carrying with it significant nutrient loads, as well as sediments and litter.” HAVE YOUR SAY: Do you believe more funds should be allocated to clean up the Banora Point canals?

another mass fish die off, Tweed Shire Council carried out clearing works to the canals during September but activity has halted and residents say it is “not good enough”. On Saturday, October 22, Tweed Shire Council candidate Chris Cherry met with Banora Point locals to hear their concerns including the level of frustration in the community over the condition of the waterway. “Residents spoke about the continuing deterioration of the canals over the last two years and noted the increased sighting of brown snakes as well as the decrease in local bird life,” Mrs Cherry said. “They said that during the recent dredging works to clear some of the weeds clogging the canals they had watched as shopping trolleys and debris were pushed further under the water rather than being removed.” The Weekly has also spoken to Banora Point locals who said walking along beside the Juniors Cricket club the canal is solid weed and the rubbish and debris collecting is building. “The condition of the canals is not only an aesthetic concern for the many people who walk along this man made waterway but concern about the mosquito breeding grounds and flooding hazard that these canals become when they stagnate and cannot flow due to the choking weeds,” Mrs Cherry added. Much of the canal system remains covered in intrusive water weeds Salvinia and Singapore daisy, clogging the surface of the water and restricting flow. Mrs Cherry said Tweed Shire Council had identified September and October as the only two months of the year where they can service the canals and clear out the weeds in this system. “What we want to know is, when is Council going to do the other half of the job?” she said.

Complete council survey to help Jack Evans The Tweed Shire Council (TSC) is conducting a survey on the use and management of the Tweed River Estuary: including the Jack Evans Boat Harbour (JEBH). This is an opportunity for residents to indicate how the river estuary and the JEBH should be used in the future. I urge all residents who are concerned about the recent attempt by Councillors Polglase and Byrne to install an inflatable fun park in the JEBH to complete the survey and indicate in the comments section: “No Inflatable Fun Parks in the JEBH”. The survey can be conducted online or hard copies are available from Council offices at Tweed Heads and Murwillumbah and at the libraries at Kingscliff, Tweed Heads and Murwillumbah. The survey must be completed by Monday November 7. To complete the survey online go to the TSC home page and open the “Council” section and then “Have Your Say” + “Your Say Tweed”. The survey is under the “Tweed River Estuary Coastal Management Program” link. Richard Mason, Chair Save the JEBH Tweed Heads

Look at councillors’ track record when voting The local council election is coming with up a whole truckload of aspiring councillors and quite a few crackers. But when you look at the history of the past few years, the pattern of rubber stamping massive and at times downright diabolical developments, it pays to give some thought to what the next four years might look like. Tens of thousands of people will become residents of Tweed in delivered weekly

the new Cobaki Lakes, Dunlop Park, Mooball, and Kings Forest developments. However, councillors voted repeatedly to ignore Tweed’s own sustainable housing policy which would have dealt with sewerage issues, public open space, infrastructure, traffic congestion and the environment. Instead no thought has been given to the impact 29,000 people will have on your lifestyle. Lack of infrastructure such as transport will increase the already congested Tweed Coast Road. There are plenty of supermarkets wiping out local businesses but what happened to the proposed Pottsville High School? These developments will cost ratepayers endlessly while the environmental impacts are taking their toll on biodiversity. When you hear the words “fiercely independent”, “proudly independent”, etc, take a deep breath - the majority of these so called independents are National Party aligned. It would be good news for Tweed if a few more seriously ethical councillors could join the ranks of Mayor Katie Milne and independent Gary Bagnall, and become a force for a change of focus in council. Stephen Lloyd, Murwillumbah

Misinformation over Men’s Shed Pottsville and District Men’s Shed president, Michael Ryan, has circulated a lot of misinformation about the possible sites for a permanent Men’s Shed, and this remark in his recent letter to councillors and candidates is deeply disturbing. Ryan says: ‘’The said land in Centennial Drive is Crown Land. Crown Land has not indicated that it is about to transfer this parcel of land to the council for community use. If council did get control over this site wouldn’t council be obliged to advertise for expressions of interest from the community regarding its future use. This process itself would take months of consultation and then developmental approval would be required. The Pre School has been working on their DA at this site for over four years. The Rural Fire Service, The SES and I am told the Pottsville Community Pantry would like a permanent location. Doesn’t Pottsville need

I agree a ward system is needed Having been involved in Local Government for many years I read very carefully what each candidate has to say on the various issues raised. I do not know Kaye Sharples personally but what she has to say makes a lot of sense. Tweed Shire needs a Ward system. However, the majority of candidates won’t support this because it is easier for them to get elected with a vote coming from right across the Shire. They are putting their own interests ahead of what is best for the residents of Tweed. As Kaye so rightly says ‘the Ward system allows more effective representation. With an expected increase in population by 2020 to 110,000 it is illogical to expect any one Councillor to have the capacity or the knowledge to address concerns from all parts of the Shire’. Obviously then it is the conscientious Councillor who ends up with the heaviest workload. Local Government representation is exactly that! Local representation. With a Ward system in place the people get to know who their representative/s are and those representatives are accountable to the people in that Ward and work very hard at being proactive. I’ve had some say to me State and Federal reps. serve a lot more people. Sure they do, but they have a sizeable monetary allocation to run and staff an office. Local Government reps.do not have this privilege. Since party politics have become so obvious in Local Government elections it has resulted in the worst possible outcome for the people of Tweed. It makes the job of any genuine Independent Candidate so much harder as the Political parties pay the Candidates expenses, swapping preferences and thus squeezing out the genuine independent. In

A big thank you from the Dutch Festival On behalf of the organisers, I would like to thank the local community for their magnificent response to the first Dutch Australian Festival held in Murwillumbah recently. By all accounts, we had nearly 1,000 visitors, mostly from the local region. We are a non-profit association, hence we are distributing the proceeds of the Festival to local charities and cultural institutions and the following donations were handed over by Committee members last week: $1,000 to Tweed Palliative Support Inc. in Dulguigan, $500 to You Have A Friend Inc. in Tweed Heads - an organisation dedicated to helping homeless and marginalised people, $500 to the Regional Gallery and Margaret Olley Art Centre Inc, $500 to the Tweed Heads Historical Society Inc. The community is asked to accept these donations as an acknowledgement by the Dutch Australian settlers of the Tweed Valley and their descendants of the warm welcome extended to them by the Australian residents already living here, then and now. Dutch migrants arrived in the Tweed Valley in the early 1950s and they have been a significant and well-integrated part of the community ever since. The Dutch culture and heritage of these migrant settlers is now part of the cultural heritage of the Tweed Valley and a contribution to its cultural diversity.

a skate park for your youth? The list of community organisations would be endless. Not to mention the high probability that the land is contaminated from previous usages as a Rubbish Depot and Sanitary Dump.’’ Testing to date reveals no contamination of the site but apparently if it is contaminated it is not suited for a Men’s Shed, but is suited for a Skate Park or Community Pantry? Mr Ryan admitted elsewhere to having no knowledge of the timing required to obtain a DA for a Men’s Shed at the site. The Mayor says ‘’less than a year’’, as most of the work is already done in the Preschool Application. And all the Men’s Shed needs to do to secure the land is apply to Crown Lands under a Memorandum of Understanding between the Australian Men’s Shed Association and NSW Crown Lands - something Ryan has consistently refused to support as he, alone among Men’s Shed members who voted in 2014, was always determined to proceed at the Black Rocks location, regardless of its clear unsuitability. It’s time he came clean with his true reasons. The proposal for an expensive temporary facility at Black Rocks is fracturing both the Shed and the community, excluding even founding members of the Shed due to isolation and poor access, imposing major safety and security risks, and obstructing the fulfilment of the function of a Men’s Shed, which is to facilitate integration of men into the community and provide socialisation opportunities. Clearly, a site near schools, the Sports Club, SES and RFS is the perfect location - and being permanent, acceptance of that option would save tens of thousands of dollars of public money, avoid major disruption, and be environmentally and socially responsible. It’s appalling that some Councillors, Council’s General Manager, and the Men’s Shed Committee seem determined to deny senior Pottsville and District men an excellent facility and the community a simple commonsense solution to a problem that should never have arisen. Proceeding at Black Rocks serves no purpose other than to support future improper development by greedy and environmentally-

Could Gold Coast style traffic be headed for Tweed MAYOR KATIE Milne said she has grave concerns for Tweed road congestion in the near future, as the impacts of an extra 36,500 people moving into the shire and several developments are completed including 11,000 people at Kings Forest west of Casuarina. “The project application for this highly contentious urban development was approved in 2013 after a long losing battle to protect the koala corridor,” Mayor Milne said. “A new battle is about to unfold. There is only one way in and one way out and all traffic will empty onto Tweed Coast Road 1km north of Coles. “There is already peak hour traffic congestion at the Tweed Coast/Cudgen Road intersection. This is a snapshot of what’s ahead.” Mayor Milne said to access the Gold Coast, north Casuarina and Salt residents are currently faced with a choice of backtracking south to the Coles traffic lights or travelling north through Kingscliff side streets. “South-bound traffic travels along the Tweed Coast Road to Cabarita, and then west through a koala protection zone,” she said. “The increased traffic generated by such a large residential development will cause Gold Coast-style chaos between Cabarita and Cudgen and put further pressure on the already limited beachside parking opportunities

between Kingscliff and Casuarina. “Kings Forest is deemed a state significant development and therefore warrants an entry/exit point onto a state controlled road. “If elected, I will advocate an investigation into the construction of a direct link to the highway west of Kings Forest. I believe that this would significantly reduce the amount of traffic on Tweed Coast Road. “The State Liberal and Labor Governments approved this development, but the Greens are committed to reducing the impacts on our Tweed lifestyle. Pro-development and middle of the road candidates will deliver the traffic frustration and anger that now often characterises driver mentality on the Gold Coast strip.” The 36,500 new residents planned for the Tweed Shire include 12,000 at Cobaki Lakes, 11,000 at Kings Forest, 3,500 at Bilambil Rise, 4,000 at Area E Terranora and 6,000 at Dunloe Park west of Pottsville. “Let’s learn from the mistakes of successive conservative Councils on the Gold Coast,” said Mayor Milne. “A community-minded and environmentally conscious Council would stage developments so that they are only approved once infrastructure is in place to cope with the traffic increase. I hope to be a member of a newly-elected progressive team that delivers sensible development, not traffic gridlock.”

Traffic congestion at Tugun bypass tunnel could be a sign of things to come for Tweed, says Mayor Katie Milne.

Young girl falls off side on Mt Warning

TWEED POLICE and emergency services were called to Mount Warning at about 10.30am on Saturday, October 15, after a 7-year-old girl accidentally fell down a 10 metre escarpment. A police media statement said the girl was walking on the track with her father, when another group of walkers approached. The girl moved to the edge of the track and lost her footing, falling down an escarpment about 10 metres or more high. As a result she suffered a fractured arm and other injuries. Westpac Lifesaver 4 helicopter winched a doctor and paramedic to treat her. The injured girl was winched from the scene and flown to Gold Coast University Hospital for treatment. She is believed to be in a stable condition. Westpac Rescue Helicopter was dispatched and were able to winch down a doctor and paramedic who began treating the patient and provided sit-reps to the command post whilst ground crews began walking up carrying specialised roping equipment. On arrival at the location TDRS members assisted the medical team in the safe recovery of the patient up a steep, rocky and dense embankment. The patient was then airlifted to Gold Coast University Hospital. Tweed District Rescue Squad said they would like to thank the members of the public that assisted moments after the incident and also assisted with manpower during the recovery.

Crack down on rural crime

TWEED POLICE are cracking down on rural crime across the shire including livestock and equipment theft and they’re calling on the community to help support them by reporting rural crime to Rural Crime Investigators. Western Region Commander and NSW Police Corporate Sponsor for Rural Crime, Assistant Commissioner Geoff McKechnie, was joined by Deputy Premier and Minister for Justice and Police Troy Grant to highlight the impact of rural crime and how people can report incidents to police. Assistant Commissioner McKechnie said rural crimes are serious offences and can have a substantial impact on the livelihood of farmers. “The theft of livestock, produce and equipment; illegal shooting, trespassing and other rural crimes can have a devastating effect on farmers, the community and the industry as a whole,” Assistant Commissioner McKechnie said. “We take every rural crime seriously; however, we’ve found it continues to go unreported because victims often believe there’s no proof, it’s not serious enough to warrant police investigation, or they think nothing can be done. “We came together today to send a very clear message of support to NSW farmers and the wider community that that’s simply not the case,” Assistant Commissioner McKechnie said. “The NSW Police is committed to reducing rural crime and we’re very keen to hear from anyone with information that could help our officers in tackling this issue.”

Defend natural heritage Promote sustainable options Protect our community’s healthy lifestyles We have watched with dismay the arrogance of Tweed Shire Councillors Polglase , Byrne and Longland when they represent commercial interests. Many times our members have addressed Council on important matters only to be ignored. Councillors are elected to represent their constituents but often Councillors have voted without explanation on such matters as their mates’ development projects and their own allowances. Clr Barry Longland was a middle-of-the-bench sort of Councillor until Clr Michael Armstrong was forced to resign by a refusal to grant compassionate leave when his father fell ill. Since Clr Longland lost the Mayor’s job he seems to have forgotten his promise to protect the area’s wildlife and environmental values. On October 29th Tweed residents have a good chance to elect a new Council which can work more cooperatively and show greater respect for the issues that matter most to our community. Good candidates are standing for a sustainable future while protecting the social and environmental values of our region. Help preserve our lifestyles against developer greed.

Bridge gangers pull out the stops for Kingscliff Bridge TWEED SHIRE Council’s acclaimed bridge gangers have kicked into overdrive and could have a single lane of the new Kingscliff Bridge open to traffic before Christmas. Traffic controllers will manage the flow of pedestrians across the footbridge at the Kingscliff Bridge construction site today, Thursday (October 20), as a crane lifts the new traffic bridge girders into place. Both pedestrians and cyclists will be held back while the crane is working overhead. Construction of the $4 million Kingscliff Bridge remains on track for the bridge to be open to traffic before Christmas. “We are on schedule to have one lane of the new bridge open to traffic controlled by temporary traffic lights before Christmas,” Council’s Manager Infrastructure Delivery

NORTHERN RIVERS GUARDIANS IS A CITIZEN ACTION GROUP WORKING TO:

The NSW Police Force has a network of specialist Rural Crime Investigators who operate across the state to assist farmers in addressing rural crime. Minister Grant said the Government is working on several fronts to see rural crime rates reduced. “A significant part of properly addressing this problem is recognising that our regions face very different crime trends to our cities. This is why I have strongly advocated for a regional Deputy Commissioner in the re-engineering of the NSW Police Force,” Mr Grant said. “In addition, Government will soon decide on the Bradshaw Review’s recommendations to strengthen our overall response to rural crime, including stock theft.” Members of the community can access the Farm Security Assessment via: http:// www.police.nsw.gov.au/__data/assets/ pdf_file/0007/9844/Farm_Security_ Assessment.pdf To access information brochures with crime prevention strategies addressing a range of key rural crime issues, visit: www. police.nsw.gov.au/community_issues/ crime_prevention/rural_crime Please contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or use the Crime Stoppers online reporting page. Information you provide will be treated in the strictest of confidence. We remind people they should not report crime information via our Facebook and Twitter pages. You can also make a report to a Rural Crime Investigator by contacting your local police station.

Police operation starts as road deaths spiral

Solar Bonus Ends This Year! Are You Ready Yet?

Are you one of the smart people in the Northern Rivers who are benefiting from the 60 cent per kWh export paid to them under the NSW Solar Bonus Scheme? Payments under this plan expire at the end of 2016, leaving solar owners with 4 - 6 cents for each kWh exported after then. 20,000 homes in the Northern Rivers will have to install new meters just to be able to use the power they now export entirely to the grid. 888 Solar Tek, your local hybrid and off-grid solar experts, have developed a smart migration plan, which will eliminate 80% or more of your ongoing power charges. They can install additional solar panels and battery storage now, to cover all of your daily energy use, slashing power charges.

Every cent of the Solar Bonus generated by your existing system is collected right up until the end of the scheme, when both system are combined. Your new hybrid solar system allows greater independence and typically pays for itself in 3-5 years. 888 Solar Tek tailor the new solar system around your existing equipment and provide 12 months free monitoring and support. If you have very low electricity usage you may choose to go off the grid altogether to eliminate fixed supply charges that make up most of your bill. 888 Solar Tek have new technologies that can operate both on and off the grid. This makes staged transition to energy self-sufficiency cost effective and avoids costly equipment change-over.

AN ALARMING number of traffic accidents and deaths across the Northern Rivers has prompted local police to launch a traffic operation aimed at addressing the mounting road toll. Several residents have contacted The Weekly during the past month over the shocking increase in the number of road accidents and many believe these could have been avoided. “It’s bloody mobile phones – put your phone away and concentrate on the road,” one caller, who did not want to be named said. “And stop the tailgating on Tweed Valley Way, yes we know you’re in a hurry but there’s only one road in and out and we all need to use it.” The Northern Region road toll currently stands at 105, which is 25 deaths more than the same time last year and there’s fear it could continue rising. A total of 311 have died on NSW roads this year which is 38 more than the same time last year. Traffic and Highway Patrol officers said they were alarmed at the rising road toll in the Northern Region of NSW including areas such as Tweed Heads and Murwillumbah. The officers are appealing to road users to share the responsibility and put an end to the tragic loss of life on the roads. Assistant Commissioner Michael Corboy is Acting Commander of the state’s Traffic and Highway Patrol Command and said that operation “North Force” was focussed on driving down the road toll across the Northern Region. “In the past 24 hours (Tuesday, October 18), five people have died on NSW roads, three of them in one crash in Northern Region,” Assistance Commissioner Corby said. “Those crashes impact entire communities and we’re appealing for everyone to share the message of responsible driving and wise judgement on the roads. “Given the current road toll in northern NSW, those using the M1 and feeder roads need to take extra care, which is what this joint operation between the Traffic and Highway Patrol Command, working with the NSW Centre for Road Safety, will be focussed on.” Assistance Commissioner Corby

said mobile phones were becoming an increasing issue by distracting drivers, but speed and drink or drug driving were also major contributors. “We know that speeding, drink or drug driving, not wearing a seat belt or proper helmet, driving fatigued or distracted by a mobile phone are all lead to serious injury and fatal crashes on our roads, which is what police will be on our roads enforcing throughout the operation,” he said. “We want those that are using northern roads for holiday, work, education, or day to day activities to get to and from their destinations safely, rather than becoming another sad statistic on our roads.” “With the support of the NSW Centre for Road Safety, we will have Metropolitan, Operational Support and Taskforce Officers working alongside Northern Traffic and Highway Patrol Command staff, for extended periods, ensuring that those that continue to put themselves, their passengers, and other road users at risk, are identified, prosecuted, and put off our roads.” Bernard Carlon, Executive Director of the NSW Centre for Road safety, said the partnership with police is aimed at educating and raising awareness of the dangers of unsafe driving. “As it stands, we are losing far too many lives in crashes in northern parts of the state which is why we are investing around $130,000 from the Community Road Safety Fund into this Police operation. “Speeding is a key concern in the Northern Region contributing to around 44 per cent of fatalities this year, while driver fatigue is the second biggest killer in the Northern Region with around 30 per cent of fatalities happening because someone was too tired to drive. “High visibility policing is a critical part of our efforts to improve safety across the road network but it is also important for drivers to help us save lives by behaving safely on the road at all times. “We are working towards zero when it comes to the road toll, and to do that, we need drivers to stick to the speed limit, drive only when well rested, and have a plan B if you plan to have a few drinks on a night out.”

Courageous conversation with Council candidates Scenic Cemetery With a particular focus on Murwillumbah and the LAST THURSDAY October 13 saw a strong turn out Sponsored and organised by the Tweed Valley Weekly, Creative Caldera, Murwillumbah District Business Chamber and Thrive 2484, the event attracted eighteen candidates and an enthusiastic crowd of around seventy audience members. Participating candidates included: Pryce Allsop, Dion Andrews, Carolyn Byrne, Reece Byrnes, Chris Cherry, Ron Cooper, Mathuranatha Das, Jayne Henry, Dot Holdom, Suzy Hudson, Barry Longland, James McKenzie, Michael McNamara, James Owen, Warren Polglase, Kevin Skinner, Kaye Sharples and Toni Zuschke. The evening was hosted by moderator Marlena Basser who expertly fielded a range of challenging questions and a variety of responses from the diverse candidates. The evening started by asking candidates to share their motivation for standing for council and their vision for a thriving Murillumbah and 2484, moving through themes including: creative industry development, support for new businesses, implementation of the rural villages strategy, the Rural Land Strategy, environmental impacts, social welfare concerns, affordable housing, rising rates, community consultation and engagement, council effectiveness and the railway line.

2484, candidates identified the need to support creative industries activation, tourism development and nurturing of small business. Water security was also identified as a key environmental issue with most candidates supporting the raising of the Clarrie Hall dam and others calling for an independent review. It was also recognised that while it is extremely important that we have diversity on our council there has been much frustration at the past council’s political machinations and polarisation preventing effective collaboration, innovation and community consultation. This gave rise to some warmly received suggestions to firstly hold a two day workshop with the new council to establish a shared vision for the community and some training in effective decision making practices, followed by quarterly community forums like the ‘meet the candidates’ session where councillors can be accountable to their community members. While all the candidates contributed to the robust conversation, the surprising candidate who elicited the most positive reactions from the audience on the night was the ungrouped independent Mathuranatha Das. It was definielty an informative, dynamic and coruageous exchange that took place and those who attended reported coming away feeling far more confident with who they would vote for at the coming election.

TWEED SHIRE Council’s scenic cemeteries have again dominated their category in the annual Murwillumbah and District Club Garden Competition. Tweed Valley Cemetery at Eviron retained its mantle as the 2016 best ‘Large Commercial, Industrial or Public Garden’, holding onto bragging rights in a long-running healthy rivalry with the team at Murwillumbah Lawn Cemetery. The pair have swapped first and second place in the category in recent years, with Tweed Valley Cemetery topping the list in 2015. The ‘Small Commercial, Industrial or Public Garden’ division was also headed by Council this year, courtesy of the Recreation Services team responsible for the Sea Photo by Jurgen Schbach Breeze Estate entrance and pond area.

I understand the local issues that are important to residents of the Tweed. I will work to ensure that the community drives the decisions that directly impact our lives.

Support needed for Council Pink Ribbon Day New business gets behind AFTER successfully supporting Breast Cancer Awareness Month in 2015, Tweed Shire Council is once again on board this month to raise awareness and fundraise for Cancer Council’s Pink Ribbon Events. The Tweed Shire Council will be hosting a morning tea at the Murwillumbah Civic Centre on Tuesday, October 25, and encourage the community to come along and raise funds for breast cancer, the most common cancer affecting women. For a gold coin donation, community members can enjoy an array of goodies baked by Council staff. “If you think the bras on display are weird and wonderful, wait until you see the All Things Pink decorated cupcakes that will be on offer from 10am,” said Liz Collyer, Council’s Director of Corporate Services.. Following on from last year’s wonderful display of decorated bras in its foyers, the Council will again treat its customers to a collection of bras donated and created by Council staff. “We are calling for more bra creations from staff this year, with an ‘All Things Pink’ theme for 2016,” said Liz Collyer. “This year’s creations will again be displayed in the Murwillumbah Civic Centre foyer from October 4th and

will be there for the rest of the month. The Council will also feature a selection of last year’s amazing designs in the new Tweed Heads office,” she said. Cancer Council NSW is the only charity in Australia that funds research into breast and gynaecological cancers while providing complete support for anyone affected by women’s cancers. Money raised from Cancer Council NSW Pink Ribbon and Girls Night In events help fund world-class research into women’s cancers, cancer prevention and advocacy programs, and support services to help those affected by women’s cancers at every part of their journey. In 2016, Cancer Council’s Pink Ribbon and Girls’ Night In events aim to raise $2.4 million in NSW alone. This will hopefully reduce the 15,000 women in Australia that are predicted to be diagnosed with breast cancer this year. “No matter how big or small, each donation this pink month will make a big difference to all Australian women who are affected by breast or gynaecological cancer. A small donation of $5 can go towards producing a meditation DVD to help a women deal with the agony of chemotherapy, while $250 can help pay an overdue electricity bill,” said Hannah Brooks, Cancer Council NSW Community Relations Coordinator for the Far North Coast.

Westpac Helicopter Rescue ONE OF Kingscliff’s newest businesses, Kristen Lovett Accounting Services (KLAS), has thrown its support behind the Westpac Life Saver Rescue Helicopter.

The helirescue service is extremely excited and thankful to announce that staff at KLAS have offered to set up a workplace giving program to support the Service. This program will allow staff to donate a small, tax deductible amount to the Service on a fortnightly basis out of their pay with KLAS encouraging other local Tweed Valley businesses to consider doing the same. “The Helirescue service is a vital community organisation that relies on donations to keep its operations on standby 24 hours a day,” said KLAS Business Manager Ms Jaime Morgan. “We are also looking to assimilate the Service’s presence into some of our business based events over the next few years,” Ms Morgan proudly remarked. The rescue helicopter service is also looking to start a Volunteer Support Group that can help fundraise by running community BBQs, events and raffles in the local Pottsville, Casuarina and Kingscliff areas. If you’re interested in registering to become a Helicopter Volunteer contact their helibase in Community Liaison Officer John Bancroft with Lismore on (02) 6627 4444.

Long Lives

Celebrating

I’m not getting older, I’m just becoming a classic

The People You Meet... with Fran Rabbitts POTTSVILLE resident Peter Warner recently published a book with the title Oceans of Light, that chronicles 30-years of his life in Tonga and the close friendship he developed with the King of Tonga, George Tupou V (19482012). Originally from Sydney, Peter’s family business, Astor Radios, was a household name when he was a young boy. He was being primed to one day take over the business, but that day never came, instead at the age of 17 he ran away to sea on a Swedish freighter and worked and studied to gain his qualifications as a Master Mariner on coastal shipping. He then bought and worked on his own fishing boat in the Pacific area with plans to expand this business. By this time, he had married his wife Justine and they decided that she would remain in Sydney and oversee the children’s education and manage the fishing business while Peter worked the business overseas.

King’s blessing inspires amazing new book Tonga with its 177 island’s territorial waters is abundant with fish. Always searching for new fishing grounds, Peter visited Tongan waters and noticed many fishing boats from as far as Korea and Japan fishing without permission in Tongan waters. Two hundred miles south of the capital of Tonga lies the uninhabited volcanic island of Ata and on one trip Peter noticed a burnt area on the green slope and movement on the cliff top. The crew investigated and were astonished to find six shipwrecked Tongan schoolboys who had disappeared on a small boat two years earlier. They had been believed dead and mourned by the nation. The subsequent rescue of the castaways began a friendship with the King of Tonga who in gratitude granted Peter the rights to fish Tonga’s territorial waters. The decision still benefits the nation to this day as Peter, a fisherman and entrepreneur established a fishing export business with benefits which flowed on to the areas of employment, health services, education and tourism. A lifelong friendship began between the King of Tonga, Peter and the Warner family who have a great love and affection for Tongan people. Peter was asked what drew him to Tonga and kept him there, “I like the Tongans’

adventurous temperament and their lifestyle,” he said. “They delight in absorbing new ways to enhance their lives and it gave me a great sense of satisfaction to introduce new ways of improving both cultural and modern methods of fishing, farming, and trading. “Through this they helped themselves and this enhanced their feelings of selfesteem.” Later the King of Tonga said to Peter: “The Tongans today, whether we like it or not, find ourselves in a fast changing world but we have demonstrated our ability to adjust. “We have to be more like pussy cats -

when you throw a cat into the air it always lands on its feet.” Peter said his advice to his friend the King, if he were alive today, would be “steady as you go in steering the ship of state.” “As the population becomes more educated, your majesty can slowly give them more say in Government and mentor them towards democracy to avoid corruption, coups, and riots that have occurred in neighbouring countries in the Pacific,” Peter said. Peter’s book makes good reading and he is still in contact with some of the boys he rescued those many years ago.

Mr. Property Services’ goal is to provide “a home for every budget” Mr. Property Services was established in 2008 to offer a professional and dedicated service at reasonable rates to the 'Buyers' and 'Sellers' of manufactured homes located in Lifestyle Villages and Residential Parks in the Tweed Valley and the southern tip of the Queensland Gold Coast. New Laws commenced on the 1st November 2015 The Law applying to homeowners in Caravan Parks, Residential Parks and Manufactured Home Estates has changed effective from the 1/11/2015. The Residential (Land Lease) Communities Act 2013 has replaced the Residential Parks Act 1998. One of the signiﬁcant changes that the Residential Land Lease Communities Act 2013 has introduced concerns “Assignment”. What is an assignment? When you sell your home in a Residential Park / Lifestyle Village, an assignment allows you to transfer (or assign) your site agreement to the Buyer[s]. This may be an option if the terms of the new agreement were not agreeable to the purchaser. If an operator refuses such a request then an application to NCAT can be made seeking an order that the operator consent to the assignment. So far this year two applications for the assignment of an Owner’s site agreement has resulted in two different sets of court orders, one in favour and one against. Park Owners are claiming they are not obliged to consent to a request for assignment and home owners claim consent cannot be unreasonably be withheld. Key issues, are relevant clauses of old

Choices

agreements still valid? Is a 'site agreement' also a 'tenancy agreement'? The Tenants Union residential park ofﬁcers are working hard in collecting facts from assignment case studies and lobbying MP's of both houses. The Tweed Residential Parks Homeowners Association can offer advice and information regarding the new act by contacting TRPHA President – Tom George, Phone (02) 6674 5727 or Email trpha@ hotmail.com for advice and information.

A DIGGER’S DIARY Diary of WWI soldier surfaces in Banora Point A WORLD War I diary written by a local sharp shooter and lead machine gunner has surfaced in Banora Point this week and chronicles the incredible life of the late Maurice Arthur Weeks during his time in Gallipoli. Maurice was a Staff Sergeant Warrant Officer II in the 2nd Light Horse Regiment (577 1st Australia Imperial Forces), serving in Gallipoli from May 1915 to November 1915. Maurice was born in South Africa and he also served in the Boer War at the age of 16, before he moved to Australia and settled in the Northern Rivers. Banora Point resident Clive Weeks is Maurice’s youngest son of ten children and he recently uncovered his father’s war diary, which details the unimaginable hardships and horrors Maurice endured from his small dugout trench on the Gallipoli peninsular. The diary, written in pencil, still has muddy finger prints on it dating back more than 100 years from the trenches. Clive was this week travelling to the Canberra War Museum where he will officially handover his father’s diary and medals as well as several reports following his father’s remarkable war story. The items are expected to be placed on display as well as documented into Australia’s war history and archives. Maurice was reputed to be one of the best shots on the Gallipoli peninsula and spent the most amount of time on the lead

machine gun and as a sniper. He was often enlisted to shoot Turkish officers and high ranking officials to hamper the Turkish efforts. He worked alone opting to shoot without a spotter and without a rifle scope on his .303 standard issue rifle. To say he was good shot would be an understatement according to Clive, who said his father’s reputation as a shooter quickly circulated around the trenches and he was often enlisted to track and kill Turkish snipers on a daily basis. Armed with his .303, Maurice wrote in gripping detail his surrounds and often referred to the mounting death toll on both sides as well as the deplorable conditions and constant bombardment going on around him. “The trenches have been lost and retaken three or four time already,” Maurice writes on Friday, May 14, 1915, after landing. “Kept guard all night, the Turks threw some messages over asking us to surrender and their terms, they also threw in some tins of muck. We’re relieved at 12pm the next day – 24 hours is quite long enough in Quinn’s. “There are hundreds of dead men piled up between the trenches and in a gully to the right. The smell is pretty solid. Our trenches are alive with maggots. There are Turks, Australians and Marines piled together in places.” The diary continues with entries that detail the heroic efforts on both sides

including a brief reprieve in which both the Australian and Turkish soldiers emerge from their trenches to bury the dead. “There is a truce today from 7.30am to 4.30pm for burying dead,” Maurice wrote on Sunday, August 23, 1915. “After hearing the continual rattle of machine guns and heavy artillery, the quietness seems very strange. The Turks came out of their trenches and spoke to us. They were well fed and look fit – a few surrender.” “Got a good shot off this morning and in the evening – heavy firing at night. The enemy dead is estimated at (between) 5,000 to 7,000.” Other entries detail the sheer magnitude of the situation including the intense desire on both sides to succeed – “at any cost”. “A furious firing from machine guns, artillery and rifles,” Maurice wrote on Saturday, May 28, 1915, under a full moon. “The enemy are charging one of our trenches. Can see our men recharging under a cloud of smoke. No details yet. Enemy took Quinn’s post after blowing it up. 13th and 15th Regiments took with bayonets. Very severe fighting, heavy loses with bombs and mines each side.” The diary has a total of three months of daily entries, but Clive said some of the stories that were not written down were truly unimaginable. “Dad was once left in the open for a day between the Australian and Turkish trenches, out in the open,” Clive said. “He survived by pulling a dead soldier’s coat over him so he also looked dead

– fortunately he made it back to the Australian trenches.” While seemingly an expert solider, Maurice also wrote that he longed to be anywhere else. “Would give anything to be away somewhere for a week or so where you can walk out in the open and feel free,” Maurice wrote on Monday, June 7, 1915. “One is never out of a trench or dug-out – always sneaking about with your head down. We get no exercise, do three hours in the trench cramped up, come back to the dug-out about 20 yards down the sap and stay there till next shift. Same thing every day, changed flannel today. Water is getting scarce. “Would like a good wash, but you get used to it. Washed face on Sunday, hands twice a week. Firing steady all day, so far, artillery duels going on.” Maurice, who was a carpenter by trade, enlisted for WWI at Mullumbimby on August 14, 1914. He completed basic training in Brisbane and sailed with the first contingent to complete his training in Egypt. Following his time in Gallipoli (May 1915 to November 1915), Maurice was transferred to Brigade Headquarters as a sniper. He took part in the Sinai Desert and Jordan River Campaigns and was wounded twice, once in Gallipoli and Mussel Harbour. His story is a reminder of the great sacrifice and heroism displayed by the Australia and New Zealand Army Corp,

THE COAST REMAINS LOWRISE THERE ARE NO PLANS FOR HIGHRISE ON KINGSCLIFF STREETS CONTRARY STATEMENTS BY NO-HIGHRISE TEAM IS SCAREMONGERING Tweed’s planning history has been dramatic and proximity to the Gold Coast has played a major role. While both were originally little more than a string of fishing villages, by 1970 Tweed’s secondary status was clear. The Gold Coast had become a flourishing tourist destination with increasing highrise construction lauded as “progress.” Tweed Councillors looked with envy across the border and determined, in the Engineer/Town Planner’s words, “to emulate Surfers Paradise type interest and investment confidence.” Greenbank Island, 72 hectares of land Council had acquired from the Lands Department in 1963, was advertised for upmarket development. When Leighton Properties purchased a large site for a shopping mall in 1973, TSC, satisfied quality development had begun, turned to Kingscliff Hill where in 1967 it had acquired 16 hectares of land in lieu of unpaid rates. At the 1973 October meeting of the Kingscliff Progress & Ratepayers Association the E/TP outlined an interim town plan that proposed construction of high-rise and multi-unit buildings down Kingscliff Hill and along Marine Parade. He told the meeting, “the Gold Coast is an example of how high-rise can be functional, economic and serve many purposes ... with development comes high-rise ...if progress isn’t accepted, the community will slip back.” The community did not accept and Council strategically retreated. There were other beachhead proposals to foster. Queensland developers Barclay Brothers and Murphy Brothers, who separately during the 1960’s acquired large areas of worked-out mining leases between Kingscliff and Bogangar, had begun submitting DA’s. There were also DA’s for twelve, thirteen and fourteen storey towers on Cabarita Headland, two sixteen storeys on Surfside Crescent Pottsville, seven storeys on Elanora Avenue Pottsville and five storeys at Kingscliff’s fig tree corner. Fourteen storeys on Kingscliff’s Marine Parade, eight-storeys on Murphys Road and fourteen-storeys on Old Pacific Highway Chinderah were also on drawing boards. And in Tweed Heads there were further highrise proposals. The 1979 gazettal of the NSW Environmental Planning and Assessment Act and the Coastal Protection Act, together with memos from the Planning and Public Works Departments should have caused TSC to review its planning programme but, as did councillors in other NSW Local Government Authority areas, Tweed councillors viewed the new legislation as too directive. They saw no reason to relinquish their belief in the sacrosanct nature of their councillor status and decision-making powers and had no intention of abandoning plans to turn the Tweed into a second Gold Coast. When the NSW Department of Planning and Environment notified TSC that some of the coastal proposals had been halted because of environmental concerns, it was a Sarajevo moment. On 5/09/80, a furious Shire President declared: “Our members firmly feel that councillors must run the council and not depend entirely on council officers or such Departments as Public Works and Planning ... Councillors have no wish to sit idly by and allow rules and regulations not of our own making restrict worthwhile development and progress.” This was the start of a war that was to last for twenty-five years and be fought on several fronts: heights of buildings, DCPs, LEPs, farmland sub-division,

environmental protection, beach erosion, waterfront setbacks and land owner rights. Central to all was non-adherence to legislation. Following the President’s declaration, council focused on a Greenbank Island site adjacent to the Mall development. Here Tweed’s first Resident Action Group, the Save Northern Boatharbour Foreshores Group, had combined with local liquor-store owners to defeat transfer of a Newcastle liquor licence to an amended Boatel/Hotel. This had resulted in abandonment of the proposal. TSC avidly supported a new development application for the site, a twenty-five-storey tower. It dismissed the State Heights of Building Advisory Committee’s warning that the Seascape proposal was too tall and disregarded a Ministerial request to forward satisfactory working drawings prior to any concurrence application. While the Minister was absent, a standin Minister gave concurrence, relying on advice given to him by the Minister’s Executive Officer, a friend of a then Tweed councillor. TSC quickly passed the DA. On returning, the Minister immediately directed Council to prepare a high-rise study before consideration of further applications for tall buildings. Emboldened by the Seascape outcome, Council disregarded the Minister’s study request and pursued another “worthwhile development” in South Tweed. This was Allen Holdings Pinehurst Apartments, amended from four twenty-storeys to three twenty-five storeys. Council also continued processing high-rise proposals in the Kingscliff area. On 2/11/1981 Kingscliff Progress and Ratepayers Association (KPRA) hosted a public meeting to discuss a fourteen- story hotel proposal on Marine Parade. After a two week developer-requested cooling off period a second meeting followed. Residents not only re-iterated their objections* to the hotel proposal now on Public Exhibition, but having learned Council was processing an eight storey DA on Murphys Rd, also moved that TSC be requested to place a moratorium on any development above three storeys, formulate a specific highrise policy and revise the Coast Plan with particular attention to the Kingscliff area. Before the hall’s doors closed that night, at the urging of the two young surfboard riders who had letterboxed the leaflets publicising the meetings, a number of residents had agreed to meet and discuss ongoing action against those intent on bringing the Gold Coast to the Tweed. There was a need to react to events immediately, unconstrained by the constitutional formalities that bound the long established residents’ association. Within a fortnight the Kingscliff Resident Action Group had been established with a four-person core * that met regularly at the Fitzgibbon home to plan strategies. Public meetings were called, old TSC agendas checked for background, members monitored council from the Public Gallery, local papers carried letters from members and supporters. Core members attended planning conferences when able and the writer visited Sydney and Grafton Planning Department offices to access extra information and enrolled in UNE planning units. KRAG was to go on and identify council wrongdoings, initiate ministerial intervention, build understanding and support for the legislation, underscore the value of fact-based submissions, and contribute to the development of a shire-wide action group. Two of the core group became the first resident-supported

candidates to be elected to council. KRAG surveillance of TSC was vital. The Planning Minister at the end of November had told Council that while the processing of Pinehurst Apartments had been illegal, he was willing to reconsider approval if assured a highrise study was underway and assured that councillors would not view any such approval as a precedent. KRAG was not assured that council would do what the minister requested and began to monitor council even more closely. Council finally forwarded a brief inhouse report on heights of buildings to the Minister and informed him professional consultants JTCW were being engaged to carry out a comprehensive high-rise study. Then, appearing to follow the Minister’s directions, councillors resolved no buildings exceeding nine metres would be considered till after the JTCW high-rise study had been completed. Quiet processing of the Murphys Rd DA continued however. In response, during the Xmas break, KRAG members carried out a comprehensive survey of Kingscliff residents’ attitude towards highrise and gave them the opportunity to sign a petition requesting a referendum on heights. When Council refused to accept the survey and petition, KRAG called a public meeting on 15/02/82 to discuss further action. Council continued to ignore KRAG’s requests and before the March 1982 public release of the JTCW report moved to exhibit the Murphys Road DA, on the pretext of only seeking public opinion. KRAG, recognising TSC intention to approve Murphys Road, wrote to relevant ministers. On 21/04/82, the day the DA was written into the agenda recommending approval, councillors learned that the Planning Minister had removed Council’s authority to approve buildings over nine metres and ordered Council to forward recommendations on each halted proposal to the Secretary Environment and Planning. In a letter, the Minister stated he’d been concerned for some time that Tweed Council was “making ad hoc decisions on high-rise and creating a Gold Coast concrete jungle on the North Coast.” He then requested council give serious consideration to the consultants’ finalised report that recommended a three-storey limit along Kingscliff’s coastal edge. Tweed councillors slated the consultants’ report and moved to submit a counterproposal at the August 1982 “Commission of Inquiry into The Desirability Location and Design of High-rise Development in the Tweed Shire.” This included support for eight storeys at Murphys Rd, 1012 storey areas in Pearl & Kingscliff Streets, no height limits in the Kingscliff commercial areas and no formal height limitation below Cudgen Creek. They were equally dismissive in regard to the February 1983 “ Commission of Inquiry into the Proposed Erection of Three 8 Storey Residential Flat Buildings, Murphys Road Kingscliff.” On the basis that “their views had been given often,”* they refused to make a submission. When subpoenaed to appear on Council’s behalf, the E/TP was sharply criticised for the lack of documentation to support Council’s approval of Murphys Road. At the end of April 1983 the Minister announced his Murphys Road verdict, a compromise five storeys. KRAG had hoped for an outright refusal but accepted the decision might have been compensatory: the councillors most avidly pursuing Gold Coast style development had used the developer.

On 7/09/83 Council approved a 16.5 metre DA on Murphys Road . However, despite several building approval extentions, due to financial problems no construction had started before gazettal of the September 1988 Tweed LEP restricted coast construction to three storeys. In the period before the 1988 gazettal two further highrise battles had begun: the first south of Kingscliff, the second at Fingal. The first battle involved two attempts by Lenen Development Pty Ltd to push for 18 storey construction and reduction of the coastal erosion zone on the coast south of Cudgen Creek. The battle was between Lenen Developments Pty Ltd on one side and coastal resident organisations together with a majority of councillors on the other. The September 1987 council election had resulted in an increase in resident-supported environment-friendly councillors. Lenen’s attempts failed. By the end of 1989 Lenen had made arrangements to lease the northern section of Ocean Paradise land to the Sahben Group for construction of a three storey hotel and several months later announced it would be submitting a DA for the southern section that would abide by LEP conditions. While coastal residents and council were countering Lenen’s manoeuvres, a Fingal highrise battle was unfolding. This was centred on an eight-storey proposal on 2.5 hectares of Crown Land that had once been a quarry and deemed by both previous and current government to be ripe for tourist development. This brought together the Tweed Byron Aboriginal Land Council, Fingal Reafforestation Group, Fingal Progress Association, Fingal Aboriginal and Islander Movement and unaligned Fingal residents as Friends of Fingal Action Group and also drew the support of the NSW Environment Council, the ALP, the National Trust, the shire-wide resident action group that had grown out of KRAG, a number of progress associations and the Tweed Conservation Organisation. In January 1989 TBALC lodged a land claim. The Ocean Blue battle had undercurrents that were uncovered in the June 1990 ICAC Report: gifts and demands for money in exchange for favours, behind the scenes meetings with politicians, the involvement of a con-man landdevelopment consultant, the use of a $2 company that hadn’t officially existed as Ocean Blue Fingal when the lease for the quarry site was signed. In July 1990 Ocean Blue’s development proposal was frozen. By the end of September 1990 the NSW Premier had advised Ocean Blue Fingal that because representatives had misled the Government about its identity, there would be no renewal of the quarry lease. On 10/12/90 the Land & Environment Court supported the Tweed Byron Aboriginal Land Council’s Land claim with the proviso that the site be maintained for public recreation and access to the beach, but TBALC had to wait until May 1991 to receive the freehold title. The Lands Minister had been unwilling to hand the land over and had mounted a challenge in February 1991. In the 90’s it was Tweed Heads Residents and Ratepayers’ Association members who had to battle highrise: an attempt by the Queensland Markwell company to have the three storey zoned fish processing business at the northern end of Boyds Bay Bridge rezoned to allow a twenty-two storey development. When this was refused other proposals were submitted: one for a terraced medium residential development of ten to twelve

storeys, another for forty units in three blocks ranging from three to five storeys. Finally, by the end of February 1997, the Minister for Urban Affairs and Planning had restricted development on the site to two storeys and rezoned it to Special Business (Waterfront). A little later Association members found themselves arguing against height changes proposed by a Ministerial Taskforce charged with revitalising Tweed Heads. The planning war entered another phase after September 1999 with the election of a councillor majority for whom the EP&A legislation and the local and State professional officers charged with applying it were anathema. Over time the majority’s rejection of planning legislation and codes of conduct became untenable. On 26/05/05 the council was sacked and three administrators were appointed. Twenty-five years of toxic warfare had ended. But the spectre of highrise still hovered. During that last phase, representatives from two more Queensland development companies had crossed the border. Representatives of one had walked the streets of Kingscliff seeking to acquire old houses for re-development, promising prospective vendors a straight swap for one of the new units they would place on the site. Representatives of the other had bought sites in Murphy’s Road initiating commentary that this would become the next Hedges Avenue, then turned to the three-storey-zoned Marine Parade. Here the slope of the land allowed construction of an internal four-story section that residents saw as an attempt to edge up heights. Down the coast Cabarita residents were similarly troubled by the four-story aspect of a building on sloping ground between Cabarita’s threestorey zoned main street and the street below and there was talk of a business man wanting to construct a five-storey building on the north-eastern corner of Kingscliff and Turnock Streets. There was also continuing lack of precision as to building heights, determination of ground level, the point on the building at which height was to be measured and how height was to be expressed. It took a little time for residents to start dispassionately considering raised building heights. The mantra “nothing over three storeys” had been burned deep during KRAG days. There were objections to recommendations to raise height from consultants engaged by the administrators to “provide urban design and planning advice” for Tweed Heads, Murwillumbah and Kingscliff urban centres and to similar suggestions in the 2007/08 Urban Lands Release & Employment Lands Strategy and draft LEP 2010 documentation. But the intensity was diminishing. It was becoming obvious that the growing coastal population was eating up green space and creating urban sprawl. More and more residents were acknowledging carefully located and controlled increased density could counter this. There were relatively few objections when the 2014 LEP set maximum building heights at lowrise 13.6 metres that, with attention to floor to ceiling measurements, can accommodate fourfloor construction. And there has been little commentary about the 13.6 metre buildings that have already been built in Kingscliff. Kingscliff remains a low-rise coastal town that has retained its friendly village atmosphere. Scaremongering no highrise team Don Quixotes are destroying this.

Landlords could offer short term rent incentives for tenants fitting the right criteria. “And of course Council should be waiving any costs for new businesses taking up residence in the CBD – in particular the outrageous charge for car parks that already exist. “I realise there’s a cost to do this from all parties but it’s short term.

Mr Allsop said the Murwillumbah CBD and main street were not lacking shops, car parks or a facelift – “it’s lacking leadership,” he said. “The heart of the town is desperate for an overhaul and everyone is too busy pointing the finger at different groups to start the process themselves. “Tenants want action from landlords, landlords want action from Tweed Shire Council and Council wants action from the business community. “I’m happy to lead the charge on behalf of everyone and if I’m elected to Council it will be one of my main priorities.” Mr Allsop said the main street needs to be a destination where shoppers and visitors can spend time, relax and

Tweed Shire Council Elections 2016

Resident questions water rate hike

BANORA POINT resident Clive Weeks says he’s concerned water rates are spiralling out of control across the Tweed Shire with what he says are persistent water rate hikes. Mr Weeks is now calling on Tweed Shire Council to curb future increases after what he said were “exuberant water rate increases”. “These rate rises are out of control, the water rate was 20 cents per kilolitre in 2007 and is now $2.85,” he said. Mr Weeks also asked The Weekly to enquire about the water rate rises with Tweed Shire Council to gain a greater understanding of where we’ve been and where water rates are heading. Tweed Shire Council has refuted several claims made by Mr Weeks and has attempted to clarify water rates and resident concerns below. 1. Firstly, could Council please outline the last water rate increase? See table below. Financial Year 2008 WATER Annual Access $95 Charge Water Usage $1.23 Charge / KL Total Water Charges for single residential property $341 using 200kL per year Increase % for single residential 12.54% property using 200kL per year

2. Was the water rate 20 cents per KL in 2007 and is now $2.85 in 2016? No. The cost per kilolitre of water in 2007 was $1.04. 3. Why have water rates increased so dramatically? Water prices have increased more than the CPI increase over the past 5 years for a number of reasons, including: • Significant increase above CPI in the cost of supply • Increasing operating and maintenance costs for pump ageing assets, additional

o l l e H urwillumbah

pressure booster stations and pump stations • Increasing operating and maintenance costs for larger and more complex treatment facilities, including the state-of-the-art Bray Park facility which is required as we have a catchment in which urban, agricultural and other activities impact on water quality. • Increased electricity usage and costs, and • Increased chemical usage and costs. Council also had a need to raise more water revenue to fund: • Asset replacements • Improved levels of service, and • Demand management and water efficiency initiatives, including rebate programs. 4. Are any future water rate increases planned? Yes. To continue to supply Tweed residents with the services they currently enjoy water prices will need to be reviewed regularly. Currently a consultant is reviewing our pricing path from 2018 onwards. 5. What are water rates used on and why are the increases important? The bulk of water rates are used to pay operating and maintenance costs of the water supply system and replace or upgrade existing water infrastructure. 6. Will the Tweed Shire suffer from water providing issues without these increases? Yes. If water is not charged for at a rate near to the cost of supply, Council would be unable to meet its obligations to maintain water infrastructure in a ‘fit for purpose’ condition and there would likely be increasing failures and decreasing reliability of supply. The Tweed community would suffer because Council would not be able to provide the services or levels of service it currently provides.

Tweed Shire Council Elections 2016 Water security for Tweed Shire’s future

THIS WEEK we discuss the hot topic of Tweed Shire water security including the Clarrie Hall Dam wall raising and proposed Byrrill Creek Dam. The subject has been raised by several readers and remains one of the Tweed’s biggest areas of concern. Questions: 1. Firsty, could each candiate please outline whether they believe in the proposed Clarrie Hall Dam raising or proposed Byrrill Creek Dam construction? If you believe neither please also specify? 2. Why do you believe this method is the best approach? 3. Finally, are there any other solutions to Tweed’s water supply? had a Notice of “Last onyeartheItable Motion to explore all

the water security options. Unfortunately, that comprehensive motion was not debated due to the Mayor bringing forward a Mayoral Minute to raise the Clarrie Hall Dam wall. The Greens Mayor brought forward a motion to increase the

dam capacity. I believe, that we need an adult conversation about all water options, we need to lift the moratorium on Byrrill Creek, so land owners and council can negotiate land options, we need to explore the options of linking to South East Queensland Water and also Gold Coast Water and put all the information on the table for the community to consider. We also need to explore other options, such as recycling of water and water tanks. Regardless of what we do, the population is increasing in this Shire and we need the infrastructure to support this situation.

”

“

The dam issue – subject to a study independent of Council into all options for water supply including grey water reticulation and storm water harvesting, I’m going for Clarrie Hall – same result, half the price.

”

“

I believe that the upgrade of the Clarrie Hall dam is the sensible option for future water security for Tweed residents. This was adopted by the outgoing Council as the preferred option and preliminary work continues with its implementation. Studies of supply and demand indicate that the yield delivered by the upgraded CH dam is equivalent to that of the larger Byrrill Creek dam but at a much lower cost in terms of dollars and environmental impact. Three independent studies over recent years have reached the same conclusion, with predictions indicating that supply and demand will intersect in 2026. This allows for the impacts of climate change and the continuing success of demand management measures. Some of the more extreme proponents of a no dams option point to greater use of recycled effluent and rain water tanks as being the answer to our water security. I think this is reckless and short term thinking on an issue that will significantly impact on future generations.

“

”

I have read the 2015 Tweed Shire Water Supply Augmentation Report from 2015 where experts examined 5 alternate options for augmenting water supply. It reports that raising the Clarrie Hall dam by 8.5metres was identified as the best option, it would cost ratepayers $43.5 million and provide water security until 2046, Byrrill Creek dam was identified as the worst option, costed at $82M and providing water security to 2044. So Byrrill creek is going to cost nearly twice as much, for less water security, so it seems pretty black and white. I have since talked to farmers who will be directly impacted by the Clarrie Hall dam and they advised there are also issues with this option, so we need to look at what can be done to mitigate these. I would be interested to read any subsequent studies done since 2015 on these options and

make an informed decision. We do need to examine this issue closely as we only have water security to 2026 with the current model. Requiring rainwater tanks in all new residential greenfield development is a way of slowing demand on our water supplies that I think needs to be introduced either way.”

“

I support the raising of Clarrie Hall Dam. I would never deny the people of the Tweed an increase in their secure yield water supply. Raise CHD and leave the discussion over the BCD site for the future. Clarrie Hall Dam was built to be augmented. The CHD site is the best from a social/environmental/ economic/governance stand and the reports produced acknowledge that fact. It will service our needs well into 2046 and possibly beyond, and you don’t build beyond your capacity to purchase/pay down loans. I Support the TSC Integrated Water Cycle Management Strategy and the Water Supply Demand Management Strategy. Water tanks are a fantastic action, (have one myself) however, you can be guaranteed that; if there is no rain to fill CHD or any other catchment area, there won’t be any filling of all those tanks either. Our own ability to selfmanage consumption of water.

“

”

I believe in byrrill creek as the best option for our water supply put simply it is a standalone option which does not require pipeline connection to Qld. Topping Clarrie Hall dam means it has to be lowered first for construction and we will still be short of water by 2035. It is also surrounded by active farmers and is not a clean catchment whereas council owns the land where Byrrill creek dam would sit. Recycled water is the answer but I for one would rather drink the great quality water we are presently enjoying

“

”

Water is our most valuable asset. The ability for Council to guarantee supply is one of the most critical decisions it will make. But before we tackle supply I’d like us to tackle use. I’d like to see the best water saving strategies engaged by Council and residents alike. More dams or bigger dams will still be emptied by poor water practises. We must recognise increased water supply is required to cater for our growing region. I’d like to think that we could look long term at not just guaranteeing supply for 20 years but maybe 50 years. Council has done a number of studies that point to the raising of Clarrie Hall Dam as the most cost effective solution to meet water needs until 2046. If that’s the case, I’d support that decision – but in my mind 30 years is still short term. Hopefully my children will still be living in the Tweed region in 30 years and I’d like to think their water supply is guaranteed as well. So where does that leave us? The building of a second dam seems inevitable. Are we just leaving the decision to the next generation to argue over as we are?

”

“

Ensuring water security for the Tweed is too important to leave to what people believe. We need evidence-based decision making. Every investigation and assessment that has been done has ranked the Byrrill Creek Dam as the worst, riskiest, least attractive option available. Yet, we still have some pushing for a 30-year-old business

Current Tweed Shire Councillor Carolyn Byrne

No High Rise Group Ron Cooper

plan, that has never been reviewed or updated, for a dam on Byrrill Creek. Before we commit to spend $50 - 100 million dollars on either dam option, ratepayers are entitled to know that it is the best, most cost-effective and environmentally sensitive option. The alternative is that we rush in now, spend up to $100 million and then spend another $50 million in the future fixing up the problems. We need evidence-based decision making, based on the latest information, through a genuinely independent assessment of our needs and the potential strategies for meeting those needs, including strategies for managing demand. Estimated cost is $150,00 to $200,000 with a very short turn-around time.

” a lot of misinformation, “There isand confusion contention on this

subject in the community. If elected one of my first priorities is to coalesce all of the data, the Council has gathered and present all of the facts to the community in a number of public forums at local community halls over a two-week period. I would then take the decision made by the community and represent their voice with their vote. Having candidates say “I said back then and I will not change” just shows an element of ‘I will go with what I think and not consider that needs and situations change over time’. One issue that has yet to be mentioned to me is the opportunity for tourism and recreation with a second dam, managed properly it could be an awesome asset for the community.

”

“

We note the requirement to augment the Tweed District Water Supply by 2026 and the recommendation in Council’s ‘Water Supply Augmentation – Selection of Preferred Option’ to raise the Clarrie Hall Dam. 1. We will advocate for a financially responsible solution that ensures we secure Tweed’s water yield at the lowest possible cost to ratepayers and businesses with minimum environmental impact and to ensure continued growth and jobs for the Shire. We will request a detailed briefing from Council 2. on the report and recommendations and consult widely with other stakeholders to ensure we have a comprehensive understanding of the options available 3. Work with fellow Councillors to resolve Tweeds Water security strategy as soon as possible.

“

”

The future of the Tweed’s water supply is paramount to its growth, development and future. Whether the right direction is to raise the wall of the Clarrie Hall dam or build a new dam at Byrill Creek, I am yet to completely decide. What I do know is that we need to have a plan for the future and to implement this plan I believe that extensive consultation will need to take place with residents, and all key stakeholders, to ensure that the right decision and direction is taken. It is about creating dialogue and it is about creating a solution that works for everyone. I am however convinced that something needs to be done as the Tweed continues to grow at a rapid pace and water security and supply is

critical to all. Solutions for the Tweed, other than dams, would be the addition and inclusion of tanks for water storage, and water saving devices, in both existing and new residential and commercial properties. Wastewater treatment and reuse, otherwise known as recycling or reclamation, for things such as irrigation, industrial processes, fire protection and toilet flushing would be a step towards creating a sustainable water supply for the Tweed Shire.

”

“Building of the dam at Byrrill Creek has been unnecessarily

obstructed by the influence on Council of ALP, Greens and Nationals and their disagreements. Councillors were elected in 2012 to get on with the job but - a big nothing after 4 years. Clarrie Hall dam reaches capacity demand in 10 years. Tweed Shire population is growing. A new dam will be 10 years in the planning and building process. Council currently owns 98 per cent of the land required. There’s no point in waiting; simple economics of planning and construction costs determine this. Raising Clarrie Hall is not the answer. This will be more expensive in the long run – an $11 million to acquire the land on top of the other costs - and it will destroy a similar area of natural environment as in the building of Byrrill Creek Dam. Clarrie Hall is also surrounded by productive farming land, unlike Byrrill Creek. Byrrill Creek dam must go forward; it’s the only sensible solution.

stands with the “Tweed ofLabor majority Tweed residents in

opposing the National Party’s push to dam Byrrill Creek. Imposing a mega dam on that waterway would destroy much of our precious environment and leave the Tweed Council penniless. This shear madness would see locals paying higher rates and soaring council fees as the shire attempts to pay off the crippling costs associated with any Byrrill Creek Dam. Tweed Labor supports a sensible course of action towards securing and sustaining our local water supply through employing new technology and listening to the science. Labor’s way is the only way to keep rates low and affordable, while protecting our natural waterways for future generations.

”

“

Dams are very environmentally destructive for our waterways. They fester with water weeds and poisonous blue green algae, and block water flows that our rivers, oceans and marine life have adapted to over millions of years. For eight long years I have called for an independent review by a specialist in sustainable water management to see if we could avoid expanding the Clarrie Hall dam. (Byrrill Creek is out of the question, and would never survive a court challenge). I came to an agreement with Cr Longland recently to

progress this sustainability review, and at the same time proceed with the planning processes for the Clarrie Hall Dam expansion to have this process sorted regardless of the outcome of the review. Cr Longland reneged on his part of our compromise though, now claiming we already had a review. That is utter rubbish. We have never had a review of the detailed strategy, only the broad screening strategy which was not by a sustainability expert.

”

“

Why are we using drinking water to flush our toilets? That is a disgrace! The issue of water supply is not isolated – it is linked to water demand management. While we continue to use our best drinking water to flush our toilets and hose our driveways we will be under constant pressure to dam valley after valley until the Tweed disappears under a sea of house roofs and dams. We need to actively consider, and implement, water reticulation, stormwater harvesting and other strategies to save our precious water if we are to appropriately manage supplying our water needs. How many valleys do we have to dam before we stop and consider how we use the water that we have? I don’t support either dam option. We have to “get real” and consider the whole range of possible strategies to collect water and to manage how we use water. Solar powered desalination (don’t confuse it with the diesel plant in Sydney), for example, is now a viable option economically. Let’s think outside the box.

Real Estate Sonja Pfister-Skeen at P Smith & Son Real Estate is your Agent of the Week AFTER RELOCATING from the Gold Coast 19 years ago, I found Murwillumbah to be the perfect community to raise a family and develop my career in Real Estate. Initially working locally in the Hospitality Industry, I developed many lasting friendships and quickly established myself in the area. It was during this time I built the foundations for a successful transition into Real Estate with P Smith and Son in 2009. My passion for Real Estate is based on the belief that it’s not just about making sales, but forging solid relationships with my Vendors and achieving the best price and conditions for a smooth transaction. Selling your family home or investment property can be a stressful time therefore you want the agent who always has your best interest at heart. Sales across the board whether it be

residential or rural have been consistent in the region. We are seeing a shortage of properties coming on to the market with the demand strong forcing prices up. According to RP Data Core Logic the median house price in the 2484 postcode is $385,000. My expert & professional tips for selling on the Tweed are to not necessarily believe the agent who tells you the highest price, you want the best, fairest price in the current market. Over pricing causes damage to your property, creating longevity in the market raising questions from prospective purchasers. Finally, a first impression is a lasting impression. Contact me today to discuss your Real Estate needs. To arrange a meeting with Sonja visit P Smith & Son Real Estate at 85 Murwillumbah Street. Or phone (02) 6672 1007.

MURWILLUMBAH THEATRE Company is staging Ali Baba, a lighthearted pantomime written by Ben Crocker, over three weekends at the Murwillumbah Civic Centre, closing with a 2pm matinee on Sunday October 30. Ali Baba is based on a traditional, wellknown children's story set in Baghdad. It combines messages on the shallowness of greed and the trials of love. Pantomimes are fast-moving stories based on silly and magical plots, suspense, comedy and laughter, song and dance, happily ever after romance, and audience participation. The script, characters, music, set and costumes are designed to engage both children and adults as a visit to a pantomime is traditionally a family outing where different generations come out together. The humour is double layered to appeal to this wide audience. Our cast includes local children as actors, as well as extreme and bizarre characters like our band of thieves, Mum Baba and her friends. Our principal boy, Ali, is a straightforward, brave action figure. His love interest, Safiya, is a ‘good’ character - she not only looks lovely but is intelligent and has a mind of her own. Pantomimes invite the audience to suspend reality when watching the plot action and characters. In pantomimes there is a ‘dame’ played by a man dressed as a woman. We all know she is really a man but we accept her character as a woman.

She is a confident, older, unmarried woman on the lookout for a husband and usually gets one in the end. She can talk directly to the audience, be their friend, greet individuals and groups, encourage audience participation and make bad jokes and puns like a naughty school child. The audience is also an essential pantomime ‘character’ - villains need to be hissed and booed and if a character invites a reaction a pantomime audience is expected to have fun in replying. Ali Baba also includes an animal played by actors in costume. The costume is not comfortable - hot and airless with restricted vision and movement. In this two-man skin the front actor has to steer, hold up the heavy head and manipulate the mouth while peering through a small window of gauze. The back legs actor has to trust the front to lead him in the right direction while the animal dances and cavorts without falling off the stage. Combine these features with a bunch of funny noises and special effects, cream pies, exotic and glittering sets and armloads of brightly coloured or bizarre costumes and you have the pantomime Ali Baba by Ben Crocker (2012). Come along and witness this acclaimed spectacle for yourselves. As well as two sold out matinees for school groups, remaining performances will take place on Saturday October 22 at 5.30pm, Sunday October 23 at 2.00pm, Saturday October 29 at 7.30pm, Sunday October 30 at 2.00pm.

SNOWDEN A few months ago the excellent documentary CITIZEN FOUR by Laura Poitras was awarded an Oscar for best documentary. But the courage and ongoing predicament of Edward Snowden – the American computer expert who leaked classified information from the NSA to The Guardian in 2013 and is still living in exile in Russia - has been feeding the minds and the talent of other film-makers as well. The latest is veteran and often controversial American director Oliver Stone, who has partly fictionalized Snowden’s life in a film based on two books, ‘The Snowden Files: The Inside Story of the World’s Most Wanted Man’ by Luke Harding and ‘Time of the Octopus’ by Anatoly Kucherena, Snowden’s Russian lawyer. Before starting to shoot the film, Stone went repeatedly to Moscow to meet Snowden, who was at first wary of turning his life into a film but eventually agreed and became involved in the project for no payment. The budget of the film became a big issue since Stone could not find any US company willing to finance it; the film was eventually financed and produced mostly in Germany. Adding to the politically sensitive value of the film is the fact that actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt – who plays Snowden in the film - has pledged to donate his earnings to “help facilitate the conversation” about the relationship between technology and democracy.

HI ALL, welcome to this week’s local sounds, We had such a wonderful time at the Foodie Fest last month, with performances by Lyrica Blue, Casey Chambers, Grizzly Train and 7 Deadly Swings. The streets came alive with festive activity and the support by the local people was amazing. This weekend Tweed Foodie Fest brings you Taste the Tweed being held at Hastings Point from 4pm – 11pm Saturday, October 22 at the Hastings Point Headland. A selection of the Tweed’s best cafes and restaurants will offer $6 and $12 tasting plates showcasing the fresh produce and the fantastic diversity of the Tweed. This is the First Taste the Tweed on the Tweed Coast which fuses food, art, music and culture. Bring a blanket, or book a table. Bus transfers are available to and from the following locations: Kingscliff, Salt, Casuarina, Pottsville and Murwillumbah. Tweed Foodie Fest is a celebration of our local rural and hospitality industries and is very much a paddock to plate experience where people can visit the farms, pick their produce and enjoy the tastes of the Tweed created by the hands of our local chefs. It is about meeting the farmers, the chefs and the locals in a real village atmosphere. It is also about our local community getting together and celebrating who we are as a food producing region. The picturesque Tweed Region in Northern NSW is fast becoming a destination for those who adore the finer things in life like great food, art and culture. The rich

Gather to celebrate Creative Caldera CULTURE MAKERS, curators and creators of the Tweed Shire are being called to action by Creative Caldera and to celebrate they are holding an event in Murwillumbah on Friday, October 28. Creative Caldera is a not for profit arts organisation who are launching a ‘Call to Action’ to encourage local creatives to work together to improve the local arts industries. “This ‘Call to Action’ has been a year in the making,” explained Creative Caldera president Natascha Wernick. “With financial support from Destination Tweed, we started last year by surveying 300 creatives from around the Tweed to find out what they do, want and need. We have spoken with key players, held focus group forums and analysed the data. Now it is time to share the results with a party.” The ‘Call to Action’ will not only guide

the work of Creative Caldera for the next three years, it will provide a focus for the creative sector to come together and make things happen. “The only way we will become the shining creative centre we aspire to be is if we work together,” said Natascha. “So everyone will need to pay their part”. The ‘Call to Action’ has identified six key action areas with specific projects to be ignited over the next three years all aimed at “unifying the creative sector” and “elevating the creative industries”. The launch party, on Friday, October 28 from 6pm-10pm will be a fun and frivolous night of networking, performances and music at the amazing art deco Citadel building at 21 Queen St, Murwillumbah. The dynamic band Salt and Steel will be performing as well as performance artist Maya Krasna. Hosted by the outrageous Lady Shiraz, guests will come away informed, inspired and ignited. Canapes will be provided by Jujus and drinks will be available for purchase. All culture makers, curators and creators are welcome. To RSVP contact calderacreative@ gmail.com

Specialised Chicken named Employer of the Month RETAIL AND wholesale food manufacturer Specialised Chickens has been announced as the Enterprise & Training Company Limited (ETC) Employer of the Month. The Murwillumbah born and bred company has been operating for more than 30 years and was the original inventor of the famous ‘garlic chicken ball’. Sales Representative Michelle Tansey said the company started out by serving customers in the Gold Coast and Tweed regions. “We’ve gradually expanded beyond the Queensland market and now supply wholesale nationally throughout Australia,” Ms Tansey said. “The growth has enabled us to employ around 40 local staff at the moment, which could increase even further over the next year as we’re currently experiencing a high growth in sales.” According to Michelle the company provided a supportive, family atmosphere with plenty of job opportunities.

“We have admin, sales, boners, cleaners, quality assurance and factory work options here at Specialised,” Ms Tansey said. “My advice to jobseekers is to always be presentable, smile, be happy and never give up.” Michelle said four of the Specialised staff had been employed through local jobactive provider ETC. “We’re really happy with our staff. We’ve found that ETC is really good at placing the right people into the right job with us,” Ms Tansey said. Specialised gives back to the community by donating pet food to Friends of the Hound, provide food for those in need at the Murwillumbah Community Centre, gift cards to Murwillumbah RSL and Murwillumbah Primary School, donations to the Westpac Rescue Helicopter and various other community events. The Retail Shop is located at the Murwillumbah factory 16 Quarry Road and is open to the public between 7.30am – 5.30pm weekdays or 7.30am – 1pm Saturdays.

Diabled students are embracing workplace training at TAFE Cafe The ‘Duck Inn Café’ at Kingscliff TAFE has provided a genuine workplace for a group of students with a disability to develop their work skills and experience whilst completing their Certificate 1 in Hospitality – Café Skills. “For some of these students this is the first time they’ve participated in work experience,” shares Ms Raftery, Access and Support /Disability Consultant. “The Café provided a great opportunity to communicate with customers, take orders, operate a till, prepare and serve coffees, cakes and gourmet lunches to the TAFE campus community and friends,”. The North Coast TAFE Disability Services works collaboratively with local and regional Disability Support Services to share information about upcoming courses and develop vocational pathways. “We work with students to create individual learning support plans that will lead them along their pathway to achieve their vocational goals,” says Ms Raftery “The skills the students acquire within the course can enhance everyday living and provide confidence and tools for further independence. “Our teachers and disability support staff strive to create an inclusive learning environment where students feel confident to participate, learn and complete assessments”. To maximise student engagement and individual participation, teaching styles and learning materials were adjusted for this group to include role-play activities and real life scenarios. Vanessa Finneran, Teacher of Commercial Cookery says over the 10 week delivery of the course she has witnessed the confidence in the students grow as they overcame uncertainty and found belief in their ability to succeed. “Many of the group are continuing to further studies in Certificate II Kitchen Operations and have expressed their desire to work in a café or restaurant one day,” If you are interested in a career in the Hospitality Industry please visit North Coast TAFE’s website www. northcoasttafe.edu.au or call the customer service 1300 628 233. To enquire about support and services available for students with disabilities please contact Anita Raftery 02 6674 7234.

BY “RAIN”

Aries (Mar21-Apr19)- You have a strong influence coming from Venus this week pushing into your travel and adventure zone drawing you to unknown territory with pleasant results. There is also an opportunity this week that is worth perusing, but like any adventure you have to step outside your comfort zone! Taurus (Apr20-May20)- Times might be pretty tense for you this week Taurus, with responsibilities piling up sometimes you can’t help but want to escape them. It might be best to carefully consider all options, and make sure your energy is going towards something positive and constructive. Make sure to treat yourself to something nice. Gemini (May21-June20)- Things are looking positive in your social and leisure sector, but perhaps you want something more? This week looks to be bringing in a new influence of dynamic change and transformation! Like a crossroad a small decision can change your life significantly, so make sure to choose something exciting! Cancer (June21-July22)- There is a highly positive home influence this week creating growth either through a new home, or a new home business. Mind your company this week however, and stand up for yourself so you don’t get stepped on. There is some unexpected news around the corner regarding an old plan. Leo (July23-Aug22)- Pressure is on Leo, with things around you needing you to act quickly and decisively and getting business done. Not a great time to be overly emotional, make sure to keep that inner calm and rationality intact this week. Make sure to get some good r n r this weekend, you’ve earned it!

Virgo (Aug23-Sept22)- There is a strong influence of passion for projects this week driving you forward! If you rush ahead too fast, you might miss some vital information by being tunnel visioned! If you feel you have missed anything, make sure to ask a friend or two for their advice. Libra (Sept23-Oct22)- You could just find yourself at a crossroad this week with a major decision before you with friends or family. While you might have to make a major decision this can be ultimately positive! And bring many exciting changes to your life. Be confident, follow your heart.

sudoku

Scorpio (Oct23-Nov21)- You have a very potent power this week Scorpio, your words will carry with them strong impact either for good or bad. Some situations it could be best to say nothing and let a situation resolve itself, if you don’t want to have this impact. Otherwise this is a great time to lift others up.

bizarre coincidences 1. Stalin, Hitler, and Franz Josef, who are collectively responsible for about 80 million deaths, all lived in Vienna at the same time 2. In 1975, a man was killed when he was struck by a taxi in Bermuda. An unlucky passenger had to witness it. A year later, the same taxi driver was driving the same passenger when the taxi struck and killed the original victim’s brother.

Sagittarius (Nov22-Dec21)- A friendly caution this week for you Sagittarius, there is a potentially risky decision ahead of you that can either cost you much or gain you a lot. If you are in this situation, take care! Make sure you are not acting impulsively and you can visualize a clear outcome.

solutions last week’s sudoku solutions

Capricorn (Dec22-Jan19)- Feeling a little claustrophobic this week? Maybe even a teensy bit irritable? You can thank the Mars Pluto connection in your sign for this. There is strength here to tap into however, powerful resolve that can be used to overcome tricky situations! Just expect a lot of input from others.

last week’s crossword solutions

Aquarius (Jan20-Feb18)- There is a wonderful influence this week and the coming weeks for romance! This is also a great time to pick up some new friends or move into a new social circle. You can expect a heightened level of emotions as well, which is a great time to release built up energies quietly. Pisces (Feb19-Mar20)- Sometimes we all have to deal with that one stubborn friend, and there might be a clash this week of opinion. If you recognize this, maybe you could just sidestep it completely and avoid a blue. If next week or the days following they raise this issue with you, they may be more open minded.

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 FOR A LIMITED TIME we will check your anode in the Tweed & Gold Coast area FREE OF CHARGE. “REMEMBER YOU CAN’T LOSE, NO ANODE REPLACEMENT NO CHARGE” Comes with a 5 year warranty ~ Make your Hot Water System last for 30 years!

An Eternal Memory

...Until We Meet Again

Those special memories of you will always bring a smile if only I could have you back for just a little while. Then we could sit and talk again just like we used to do you always meant so very much and always will do too. The fact that you’re no longer here will always cause me pain but you’re forever in my heart until we meet again.

Bowls Notes

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

with Judy Tuckey

NORTHERN RIVERS Annual 3 Day Carnival, conducted at Ballina last week, was a huge success with teams from Matraville in Sydney in the South up to Queensland’s Caloundra in the North entering the fray. Proudly co-hosted AND co-sponsored by Ballina’s R.S.L. and Cherry Street Bowling Clubs certainly ensured a great competition was to be enjoyed by all contestants. Prize money of $8000 + on offer, together with a revamping of the format to 3 games of 14 ends each day coupled with the close proximity of the two clubs to each other, was the perfect recipe for a successful tournament. Queensland teams dominated the 66 entries received and it is not surprising that four of the seven top prize winners hailed from that State. Day One revealed five Queensland teams were on top of the leader board with much the same result on Day Two but with a Pottsville composite team now in the mix. Day Three, the final day, in an exciting finale Ipswich’s Marie Lipp’s team continued on their winning streak to claim outright victory on 9 + 155 pipping Pottsville’s team, Ann Marie Kane (Skip), George Moore, Marie Comerford, Elizabeth Reid, on 8.5 + 155 into second place. Teams from Caloundra, South Grafton, Algester, Kallangar and Lennox Head made up the other five placings. Prize money was also awarded to daily winners and runners-up at each club providing a rewarding incentive to other successful teams. Positive feed back from contestants indicated that next year’s 60th Carnival will be bigger and better, much to the delight of the tournament organisers. See you on the Greens. Good bowling everyone.

Sh ting Hoops WOMEN’S LEAGUE It’s been a big week at Murwillumbah Basketball. On Monday night we were somewhat excited to have a 6th team enter the Women’s League. Strangers to each other before the game, they settled in well and by the 4th quarter looked as though they’d been together for years. It’s a great mix of youth and experience. Tisha Williams and Lou Walton played their first game in many years, while Demi, Amy, Jamie and Jessica all combined in what will be a good side. Their 1 point loss was testament to that. Steelers and Young Guns played out a repeat of last season’s Grand Final with Steelers once again having the edge with a 1 point victory. Despite this week being

trial fixtures, you certainly wouldn’t have thought so as the game became a very competitive. In game 3, Blazers had a comfortable 26-6 victory over Bandits. AUSSIE HOOPS (5-10 years) Term 4 got underway on Tuesday with yet another full house. Nothing is more pleasing than seeing our younger generation taking to basketball with so much fun and enthusiasm. We welcomed new members into our program, as well as many of our regular Hoopers back. The interest is growing considerably and we are investing in more coaches. In the end we are restricted purely by the number of courts and days we have available. Coach Cameron, a Texas native, assisted Coach

Elizabeth Reid, Ann Marie Kane (Skip), George Moore, Marie Comerford

Aaron in what will be a fun 8 weeks. Also very pleasing to have so many parents willing to help out. MEN’S LEAGUE Game 1 saw Splash Ketchum take on Bushrangers in what many predicted would be a win for Splash. But no-one told the Bushrangers that and they came up trumps with a resounding 46-39 win. Jefte Juarez was the highlight for the boys from the bush ably supported by Beau Abney. Splash just couldn’t get into a rhythm. In the 2nd game it was a top of the table clash between The Tropics and GIO Oddballs. Tropics were strengthened by the return of their playmaker, Joel Black. Kieran McAskill had one of his best games of the season scoring points inside with ease. Oddballs also couldn’t find a rhythm and were soundly defeated 49-36. Cooper Black suffered a nasty ankle injury and looks in danger of missing a few games. YOUTH LEAGUE (11-16 years) We had our first session back on Wednesday following the school holiday break. It’s nice to see teams settling in as

we move into mini competition mode as of next Wednesday. Details of a game draw will be posted on the Murwillumbah Basketball Association Facebook page so keep an eye out for your team. New players are more than welcome. Cost is only $6 per week. Basketball NSW Registration is just $10. OUR FUTURE LOOKS PROMISING With more and more people discovering basketball in Murwillumbah, particularly in the junior ranks, and with more coaches and volunteers coming on board, we hope to one day soon be able to return to basketball at a representative level. Federal Government funding of $62,000 is already approved to assist with the upgrade of the James Street courts which will go a long way in providing us with a 21st century state of the art complex. This will enable everyone to play and train on a quality surface. We see nothing but growth for Murwillumbah basketball. We’ve been around since 1952 and have no intention of going away. Until next week, Happy Ballin’

TYLER TAKES THE TITLE – could Men’s be over in Portugal as well? There are many permutations on who has to finish where and many surfers have a mathematical chance to win the WSL World Title. But it is John John Florence and Gabriel Medina are the main two, and if Florence wins this event, Medina will have to make the quarter finals to take the trace to Pipeline. The rest of the field need Florence and Medina to fall over, which was the case in the non-elimination first round, where the top 3 seeds all headed to round 2. A Quarterfinalist in this event last year, lethal local wildcard Frederico Morais, 24, resumed his quest to get the biggest scalps in pro surfing as he took down World No. 2 and former WSL Champion Gabriel Medina and rookie Conner Coffin in a slow opening round match-up. Morais, who seriously altered Mick Fanning’s chances of

claiming a World Title in 2015 by eliminating the Australian in the third round in Peniche, could replicate his rankings shake-up if he can keep his good form going into Round 3. Florence had an average heat to go down to Jadson Andre, who followed him around and stuck to him like glue, even with 15 minutes to go in the heat. On the other hand it was good for our local Pros, Parko and Josh Kerr looking the goods and being dominant in their heats. Parko looked particularly hot the trot to go through to round 3, and Kerrsy was very much at home in the air as well. The waves at Peniche are very much like South Straddie and the lads look very much at home. The bigger it gets the better they will get I reckon. Kelly Slater was in fine form as well scoring the highest wave of the first day. Slater did say he was not going to show, but he did even sporting a brand new beard! Action starts from about 6pm

AEDST on foxsports or online. Local Clubs off to Boardriders Battle at Yamba Next Weekend Cabarita and Kingscliff Boardrifders will be off to Yamba next Saturday to fly the flag for the Tweed Coast at the Northern NSW qualifier for the Nudie Australian Boardriders Battle final to be held at Newcastle over the Australia Day Long weekend. Clubs from the Border to Coffs Harbour will be having a crack at the two spots available for the National final. Cabarita qualified last year, but the competition will be tough with big name clubs like Le-Ba (Lennox-Ballina), Angourie, Byron Bay, and Coffs Harbour being the clubs to beat. More on that next week. Looks like a real swell is due after some nasty weather this week, hopefully a chance to get some real surfing done on the point breaks and reefs. Get tubed, and I’ll catch you in the waves

TRAC Kingscliff honours latest Games athletes TWEED REGIONAL Aquatic Centre Kingscliff’s impressive list of international athletes has been officially expanded, with an unveiling of signs to celebrate its most recent Olympian and Paralympians. Olympic swimmer Matt Abood, Paralympics swimmer Kate Wilson and paratriathlete Bill Chaffey gathered at TRAC Kingscliff last week, after they were added to the honour roll of name signs featured around the pool complex. The three Rio Games competitors are now among eight Olympians who have been based at TRAC Kingscliff for their swimming training – joining a celebrated honour roll that also includes former Australian swimming team captain Chris Fydler, Josh Watson, Dyana Calub, Sophie Edington and Lara Davenport. Abood now lives in Sydney but trained at the Kingscliff pool from when he was eight years old. He returned to Kingscliff last week to celebrate his 30th birthday with family and friends, proudly revealing the bronze medal he won as a member of the 4 x 100m freestyle relay team. “Kingy pool was always a great place to train because it has such a nice environment,” he said.

“It’s really relaxed here - and the more relaxed you are, the better you float. This is also a beautiful setting; from four of the lanes you can look out across to Cook Island. It might not be the most flashy pool, but building the most modern swimming complex doesn ’t necessarily mean you’ll have the best place to train.” Abood said he had always aspired to have his own Olympian sign on display, and had been hopeful he would earn a spot at the London Olympics in 2012 but was not selected. An Australian representative at the Commonwealth Games and world championships, Abood says he has now achieved everything he set out to do in swimming and will evaluate whether he sets his sights on Tokyo in 2020. It is a similar story for Chaffey, a relative veteran of elite paratriathlon competition and multiple world champion. The Bilambil Heights resident placed fourth in his category at the Rio Games and, while disappointed he finished outside the medals, was satisfied he gave everything he had in the race. “The first three men were all incredibly fast on the day,” he said. “At 41 years of age, I’m definitely keen to keep going for the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games and I’ll then decide whether to have another crack at

Tokyo.” Chaffey said he was always amazed by the large number of Olympians and world championship swimmers who trained at TRAC Kingscliff. “It’s certainly a great honour having my name among the likes of Chris Fydler.” Wilson is at the other end of her sporting career. The 18-year-old has been swimming since she was five but the Rio Paralympics were her first international competition. Not expecting to earn a berth, she had excelled at her qualifying events and went on to impress in the 50m and 100m freestyle, 200m individual medley and 100m breaststroke races for short statured people. The Kingscliff student was also a finalist as a member of the 4 x 50m freestyle relay team.

Clark appointed Seagulls new chief executive TWEED HEADS Seagulls has appointed former Gold Coast Titans manager Scott Clark (pictured) as the new chief executive of the Tweed Heads Seagulls in the Queensland Cup. Clark resigned from the Titans last November after it emerged he had forged star player James Roberts’ initials on a contract. Roberts left the Titans in the off-season, linking with the Brisbane Broncos, although the money freed up by his departure, along with the Coast’s failed bid for Daly Cherry-Evans ultimately led to the club signing Jarryd Hayne. Clark’s career had been in question for several months and

he admitted he feared the incident may have cost him any chance of a future in the sport. “I thought that the opportunity to stay involved in the game might be gone and I didn’t know if I wanted to be involved in the game anymore,” Clark told News Corp reporters. “For this opportunity to come up within 12 months was ideal. I thought I’d throw my hat in the ring and it’s worked out well.” Tweed chairman Rex Paton said the club had no issues with hiring Clark, whose referees included Titans staff members. We went through a quite exhaustive process to choose him, so we’re more than happy with

our decision,” Paton said. “Those things (that happened with the Roberts contract) are in the past and we believe everyone is deserving of a second chance. “We don’t have a problem with that.” Clark’s first day on the job was on Monday, October 17, and said he was grateful to Tweed for giving him a second chance. “That was obviously what people would think, that Tweed have taken a punt on me, and we spoke about that through the interview process,’’ Clark told News Corp reporters. “Everyone’s comfortable and I think it’s best we just get on with it and look to the future.’’

“It’s good to be back involved in the game and to do it and still be on the Coast is probably the best thing.” As the oldest provincial football club in Australia, Tweed has a strong history in the game and Clark said being able to start the second chapter of his footy career at the club was a “privilege”. “They’ve been around almost since the start of the game, Tweed Seagulls,’’ Clark said. “Coming from Burleigh and being the opposition, you always had a great respect for Seagulls being a local club. “There’s a lot of history there, you’ve only got to walk down the corridor to see the teams dating

back quite a few years and I feel privileged to be working for a club like this because they are a great and fairly famous club, so I’m looking forward to it.’’
