ANOTHER BIG WET CAUSES HAVOC

The rain event lasted over a week, with the heaviest falls on Monday, March 22. Heavy rain resulted in some roads being closed, some school bus services shutdown and emergency service workers and volunteers kept busy with flood rescues, clearing fallen trees and landslides as well as sandbagging to protect homes.

THE TWEED Shire had barely recovered from record rainfall and flooding in December when the region was inundated again, with landslides and flooding across the shire as a high pressure system over the Tasman Sea sent humid easterly winds north. The ground was already saturated from weeks of intermittent rain and it didn’t take much to cause widespread flooding.

By Jonathon Howard RECORDS TUMBLED at the Murwillumbah Saleyards on Saturday, March 21, with cattle farmers scrambling to restock in one of the hottest cattle markets in Murwillumbah’s recent history. George and Fuhrmann Stock and Station Agent Brent Casey hosted the auction, with a total of 520 cattle going under the hammer. Mr Casey said many farmers are continuing to restock and take advantage of improving conditions out west. “A lack of supply and high demand are again keeping prices high, even record highs, as many cattle farmers are looking to restock and build their stock back up for a great season ahead,” Mr Casey said. “There’s a lot of strong demand for younger cattle going out west as far as Dubbo and Merriwa and as far north as Dalby and Wandoan in Queensland.” Mr Casey said the sale exceeded expectations and with follow up rain in the west, “there is now nearly a guarantee of a good winter season”. “The season has been outstanding so far, producing some great quality cattle on the coast here, with records tumbling once again,” he said. A total of 50 light weaner steers (100kg to 200kg) were sold, with a top price of $7.56 per kilo, and averaging out to $6.95 per kilo.

HOT MARKET: Cattle prices have continued to increase as farmers look to restock

Heavy weaner steers (200kg to 300kg) totalled 130, which sold at a top price of $6.80 per kilo, and averaged out at $5.80 per kilo. Weaner heifers totalled 40 (100kg to 200kg), and topped at $6.30 per kilo, and an average of $5.85 per kilo. A total of 80 head of heavy weaner heifers (200 to 300kg), topped at $6.18 per kilo, and an average of $5.50 per kilo. Grower steers totalled 80 head, with a top price of $4.68 per kilo, to average out at $4.20 per kilo. A total of 70 cows and calves sold at a top of $2,980 per head, and an average of $2,350.

There were also 40 pregnant cows sold, which topped at $2,720 per head to average at $2,403. Mr Casey said anyone unable to restock at the present time, due to high prices, still have opportunities for agistment, which includes establishing a lease on their property. “It costs a lot of money to restock at the moment,” he said. “There are options for those who cannot afford those prices and they should contact us for more information.” Anyone wanting more information about agistment, or for more sales information, please phone George and Fuhrmann on (02) 6662 2500 or Brent Casey on: 0428 530 422.

Big wet likely to return through April

FLOODING: Jazz Hardy took this photo of the ﬂooded Sleepy Hollow Road

The Bureau of Meteorology’s closest observation site is in Coolangatta, and the spokesperson indicated that it had recorded up to 393mm of rain in March at the time of print, and with this latest front predicted to drop more than 100mm, the Tweed may yet be set to break another rainfall record. “For March, the highest rainfall on record was set in 1987 with a fall of

521mm, so there is every chance that could be broken again depending on how much rain we get with this next system, so we are going to be keeping a close eye on it,” he said. The Tweed broke rainfall records in December last year when we received an all-time record rainfall of 535mm, which was the wettest December since records began over 40 years ago.

By Megan Albany WHILE WE might get a reprieve from the big wet for a few days from the date of publication, a Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) spokesperson told The Weekly that we can continue to expect more rain from La Niña until at least April. “While La Niña has peaked, we are expecting it to stick around until April, with above average rainfall for the Tweed until then,” the BOM spokesperson said. “We have been seeing big rainfall totals well above average and that is looking like it will go on for a bit longer, but by May, the rainfall should return to average for that time of year.” The spokesperson said that while we should expect dry and cooler conditions by Thursday, March 25, we should still expect showers into early next week, as well as very big swell conditions. He also indicated that rainfall records could once again be broken if the rain continues. “We’ve had significant falls along the coast and while there are no records yet, it has been a very wet period over the last few days,” he said.

Koala deal outrage

I am writing to register my outrage and distress at the SEPP 21 deal done last week by the state government at the expense of koalas and other wildlife. Saving about 140 koalas on our Tweed coast, adding a few hectares to the Cudgen Nature Reserve, and opening a hospital in our Tweed shire is not going to make a tiny dint in the loss of thousands and thousands of hectares of land no longer protected for koalas in our shire and across the state. About 80 per cent of our own shire is now unprotected. This government said it would increase koala populations, 60 per cent of which live on private land. This latest SEPP action has destroyed any chance of them surviving at all. We urgently need the SEPP 21 to cover all of the Tweed and the Northern Rivers’ internationally significant environment – as it does in Sydney. Further, the Koala National Park needs to be declared straight away and the recommendations of the bipartisan koala inquiry must also be implemented. I believe people of all parties care about this issue. We need to let our parliamentarians know about it immediately. The local and global situation for vulnerable species could hardly be more urgent, and astonishingly this government has knowingly made it worse. This needs to change, and quickly. Nola Firth, Murwillumbah

fantastic two-year review on how to make sure our koalas would still be there for our children and grandchildren in 2050. Consultation with top scientists, community members and stakeholders, including councils, resulted in 42 recommendations. These recommendations created a clear and achievable path to increase koala populations, vital because 80 per cent of koala habitat in NSW was wiped out in bushfires. Of the koalas we have left, 60 per cent live in native forest on privatelyowned land. The recent NSW Government media release advised the government’s intention to remove most existing protections for koalas on this land, thereby wasting the taxpayers’ money invested in the review and ignoring the science and experts. The need for koala protection will be left to the self-assessment by the landholders, effectively declaring open slather on koalas in these forests. Local councils will have no say, the Koala Plans of Management will be rendered useless. Everything will be decided in Sydney. Sadly, the koalas and loggers want the same trees, big old growth eucalypts. Now is the time to get off the path to destruction. Speak up! Jenny Hayes, President of Team Koala

does it have to be so thoughtlessly loud? Bev Fairley, Kynnumboon

Motorbikes are too loud

Totally agree with Linley B, some motorbikes going through town on Saturdays and Sundays are in my view illegally loud – which hurts ears – and people need to complain to police in numbers before anything will change. Helen Hannigan, Murwillumbah

I too am annoyed by loud bikes

I second Linley B, Murwillumbah (TVW) Letter of this week, “sick of the motorcycle noise”. And I would add the number are just increasing, I counted near 200 passing in under an hour last weekend. Pa t r i c k M o x e y, S o u t h Murwillumbah

Where’s my catalogues Coles and Woolies?

Earlier this year we were told neither Coles or Woolworths would be delivering their ‘specials brochures’. We would either need to go online or pick up from the stores. Firstly, this is discrimination, as so many people do not have computers, do not wish to go online, and in so many cases, people cannot get to the stores for all sorts of reasons. Go to Coles, any of their stores, at any time, you can find plenty of their weekly brochures. I do not shop at Coles – maybe I should. Go to Woolworths, where I do shop, and the answer is each Wednesday, “sorry, we don’t have any, or only received a few and they are all gone, or only received one bundle or three bundles”. Not good enough. Today is Thursday, March 18, and three busy Woolworths stores I went to have no brochures, I was told at

one “hopefully we will get more tomorrow”. I collect the brochures from both supermarkets, not only for myself but for others, and this is beyond a joke. Come on Woolworths – how about returning to how it used to be. I feel for the checkout staff who are having to explain to the public each week why no brochures – they too are over it and rightly so. Good on Aldi for sticking to how it should be. Margie Coll, Murwillumbah

Minor injuries to greyhounds

I cannot let Susie Hearder’s letter (March 18, TVW) go unanswered. She writes that there were 9,861 injuries to greyhounds in Australia last year. When one considers the many thousands of races run, this is a very, very small percentage. Also, the vast majority of these injuries were very minor injuries. Injuries are a part of many sports. Footballers are always getting injured. With all the discussion about concussion these days should all forms of football be abolished? No one has said so. One thing that Susie Hearder has never acknowledged is that a new track at Tweed Heads will provide much-needed employment in the Tweed area. Bert Weston, Tweed Heads

Can’t beat ‘em - join ‘em

Will the huge landslide Western Australia Labor vote convert federally for Anthony Albanese? The answer is no, due to Albanese’s total lack of charisma and policy of appeasement of if you can’t beat them, join them. Labor voters – like all voters – want a winner, to back a fighter. That’s why at every election, each party leader always says they’re the underdog.

Ph 02 6688 4480

Although he won’t like the idea, Albanese went down the toilet with Bill Shorten – the last Labor leader, not that long ago, remember him? Albo’s just an unlucky, old, uninspiring guy. Best thing our Miracle PM’s got going for him. The only rabbit in the bag federal Labor has is Senator Penny Wong. As I have said since the last election, only a woman can beat Scott Morrison and federal Labor would be stark raving mad not to use their only asset. The lady is dynamite and her time has come. Terry Sharples, Tweed Heads

See Crams Farm before it’s gone

Public spaces in the Tweed between the coastal beaches and the McPherson Range backdrop to the shire are singular. There is really only the 50-acre Clarrie Hall Dam area. So, have you visited the Tweed’s greatest beauty spot? No? Well drive out on Kyogle Road and turn left at the 26km mark to Midginbil. Four kilometres along the bitumen road brings you to Cram’s Farm. Entry is free. So why don’t you take a trip out to this serene spot, with its age-old koala habitat, before, in my view, Tweed Shire Council consigns it to oblivion, where it plans to build the new dam wall. Why should all of this be destroyed when there always was another alternative – the Byrrill Creek Dam, which would immediately double our water catchment and storage capacity?

By Jonathon Howard WILL CAMERAS in Knox Park deter vandals and anti-social behaviour? It’s a question that Tweed Shire Councillors are seeking to have answered after a successful motion during their monthly meeting on Thursday, March 18. Following an ongoing spate of vandalism in Murwillumbah’s central park, including destroyed plants, there has been calls for greater closed-circuit television (CCTV) to deter the anti-social behaviour. But some councillors, including Cr Pryce Allsop, say the increased use of cameras monitoring residents makes him “uneasy”, although he acknowledges the need to address vandalism. The motion was successfully moved by Mayor Chris Cherry and Cr Katie Milne, to investigate the use of CCTV in Knox Park, with a recent report revealing strong support for the technology, including from local police. Cr Pryce Allsop said he is concerned with a “big brother” scenario.

“We want to protect our community,” he said. “But wow, here we go, as people criticise China for monitoring their people, we’re trying to implement more CCTV – I don’t know. I will be interested to see what the report reveals.” A majority of councillors voted to progress with the report, with Council highlighting there had been support within the local community for the installation of additional CCTV to “address crime and community safety”. “This includes during discussion at a Community Safety Intervention Meeting held on February 11, 2020, which was attended by representatives from Council, NSW Police, Murwillumbah Community Centre and local schools,” Council’s report reads. “In addition to community safety concerns, Council has also experienced a high rate of vandalism to park assets located in Knox Park. “The NSW Government policy statement and guidelines for the establishment and implementation of CCTV in public places provide a policy

BIG BROTHER: Could CCTV work in Knox Park?

framework and a set of underlying principles to assist agencies, such as Council, when considering CCTV as a possible response to local community safety concerns. “To ensure that CCTV is the most appropriate method to address the crime issue in the Knox Park area, and also Jack Evans Boat Harbour at Tweed Heads, Council will investigate this option in accordance with the NSW guidelines. “A report back on the outcome of this investigation will be presented to Council for consideration.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe CCTV is a good idea in Knox Park?

Big wet adds major workload for Council

By Jo Kennett FORTUNATELY THE Tweed Shire has been spared some of the devastating deluges which have shattered communities to our south. Tweed Shire Council’s Manager of Roads and Stormwater, Danny Rose, said the heaviest falls have been coastal, “which has resulted in flash flooding at multiple rural and urban locations”. “However, the water has not had too many serious impacts on road

infrastructure in these areas up to this point. “Our hard-working road maintenance crews have been kept busy closing roads, filling potholes and managing reports of debris on roads, including tree falls and landslips. “Rises in the Tweed, Oxley and Rous rivers have resulted in inundation of the usual low-lying areas. While the coastal floodplains, such as around Tanglewood and Wooyung, are flooded and this water is likely to persist for some time.

“We will continue to closely monitor the situation over the coming days as the catchment is saturated and there will be significant run-off into the rivers, and (as of Tuesday 11am) more heavy rain is still predicted under the severe weather warning and flood warning. “Stay safe on the roads and remember, if it’s flooded, forget it.” Residents can stay up to date via Council’s Tweed Emergency Dashboard: https://emergency.tweed.nsw.gov.au/

Know the insurance attached to your super Many people suffer hardship, unaware they could get financial help through the insurance attached to their superannuation. It’s easy to miss. You don’t arrange to take it out yourself, as the super fund does it automatically. You don’t personally pay the premium, as it comes out of your super. Finally, it is hidden in the fine print on your super statement. There you can find death cover which pays a lump sum or income stream to your beneficiaries when you die or if you have a terminal illness; total and permanent disability cover (TPD) which pays a benefit if you become seriously disabled and unlikely to work again; and income protection (IP) which pays a regular income for a specified period in the case of temporary disability or illness. But Lenece Pek, superannuation consultant at Stacks Law Firm, says it is getting increasingly difficult for people to claim on their own for total and permanent disability or from income protection insurance, as insurers and the government have made it harder. Ms Pek was a financial adviser with the Salvation Army before joining Stacks Law Firm to help people claim what they are entitled to from their superannuation insurance when they fall on hard times. “If you have had to stop work because of illness or injury, give Stacks a call. I have had over $7 million paid out to 78 clients from insurances I have found. None of these people had any idea they had such insurance until we examined the fine print for them. “For instance, one client, a family man, developed cancer in his arm. The cancer was cured, but the treatment left his arm swollen and painful and he could no longer work. With three student children to support and a mortgage to pay, he was finding it impossible to manage on a disability pension. “He wanted some of his super released to help save his house and help the children complete their education. We were able to have some of his super released, but we also located TPD insurance attached to his super which he had not known about. “We also found another ‘lost’ super fund of his and it too had TPD insurance. Eventually both TPD claims were paid, resulting in over $200,000 being paid to our client, on top of his super balance.” Ms Pek said some of the insurances she has pursued went back 18 years, yet she still got the insurer to pay.

Lion of Coins to return on April 1

By Jonathon Howard THE ICONIC ‘Lion of Coins’ fundraiser is back on Thursday, April 1, outside Dinki Di Discount Store on Murwillumbah’s main street. One of the longest running local fundraisers for Wedgetail Retreat was cancelled last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which provides a vital boost to the end-of-life service that receives no government funding. The Lion of Coins has been running for more than 50 years and takes place from 8am until 1pm, with passers-by asked to “toss a coin or note” between two chalk lines. Murwillumbah Lions Club member Leo Kelly has been hosting the event for decades and is this year calling on the community to “remember their change from home this year”. “Or please remember to get some money out at one of the local banks, as cash is being carried around less and less,” he said.

“We’re really hoping the community will again get behind the long-running fundraiser, which is vital for Wedgetail.” Mr Kelly is supported in his efforts by Dinki Di manager Vickie North, who has supported the fundraiser for the past 17 years. “It’s been going a long time and it’s great to have it back,” she said. “We love to support Leo and Wedgetail, and we’d hope to smash our previous record of $1,700.” Mr Kelly said people passing by can toss a coin or note between the lines on the footpath. “The Lion of Coins was started by Ron Mapp in 1969, and Clem Hunting was the second operator,” he said. “It’s been a great fundraiser and originally funded a trip for children living in the far west on a visit to the sea for the first time.” The Lion of Coins is today used as a much-needed fundraiser for Wedgetail Retreat. “I’d really like to thank Dinki Di Discount store owner Linley Benard

By Jonathon Howard THERE WAS chaos on the Pacific Motorway near Round Mountain, after a crash involving three trucks and two cars caused lengthy delays on Thursday, March 18, but fortunately no one required hospitalisation. Tweed Coast Rural Fire Service (RFS) volunteers were on the scene shortly after 5.15am, following reports of people trapped in their vehicles. However, by the time emergency crews arrived, the occupants of the three B-double trucks and two vehicles had managed to exit their vehicles. One of the trucks, a loaded prime mover, had left the highway and come to rest in a flowing cane drain. Tweed Coast firefighters set up fire protection and Kingscliff crews investigated leaks and hazardous materials the truck might have been carrying. Paramedics assessed the occupants of all of the vehicles who were lucky to escape injury. Fire and Rescue NSW Tweed Heads’ Alpha appliance and Hazmat van also arrived on the scene to help out.

M1 CHAOS One of the three B-doubles that suﬀered damage from the accident

Booms were deployed around the truck in the cane drain to capture any leaking fluids, as the diesel tanks had been punctured on its exit off the highway. Heavy haulage was sent to the scene to try to get the B-double out of the cane drain, but the operation took some time as the conditions were very wet and difficult. At around 11am, the Tweed Coast RFS crew requested Hazmat return to the scene to assist with oil leaking from the engine of the prime mover. The oil was flowing into a cane drain which was full of water due to recent rain.

Crews used booms, ‘spag sorb’ (an absorbent organic compound) and specialised bins to render the oil safe. The northbound lane of the highway had to be completely closed as the heavy haulage tow truck dragged the prime mover out of the cane drain. It wasn’t until later in the afternoon that the removal and clean up was complete and both northbound lanes of the highway were reopened. Cudgen Rural Fire Brigade, Tweed Police and Transport for NSW also attended the accident.

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

Jack Evans Boat Harbour is set to have an inclusive playspace to upgrade existing facilities.

Inclusive playspace set for Jack Evans Boat Harbour An inclusive park and playspace is planned to become a major feature of Jack Evans Boat Harbour in Tweed Heads, thanks to a grant from the NSW Government. To be known as Goorimahbah – Place of Stories Inclusive Park and Playspace, the extensive upgrade to existing facilities at the boat harbour will ensure all children can play, regardless of age or ability. The project aims to make Jack Evans Boat Harbour a vibrant focal point for community activity in Tweed Heads, recognising the area as an accessible destination for residents and visitors. The safe and unique design of the playspace will enable children with disabilities, their families and/or carers to meet, play and connect. The new inclusive playspace will include: • all abilities play equipment to meet the needs of children aged 2–12 years and youth • local Indigenous art and stories • accessible surfacing • new seating and picnic areas • additional shade trees and built shade • natural and sensory play elements. The project team has been working in partnership with Council's Equal Access Advisory Committee, Aboriginal Advisory Committee and Youth Council to develop the draft concept plan for the park. Council is also working alongside Variety – the Children's Charity which provided a design grant of $30,000 to fund the draft concept plan and worked with the community to have their say. An additional $300,000 from the NSW Government's Everyone Can Play Grant Program was received by Council to fund the cost of construction. This is on top of a funding grant of $300,000 from the NSW Government's Infrastructure Grant – Clubgrants Category 3 Fund. With extra funding from Council, the total cost of the project is estimated to be $930,000.

Chairperson of the Equal Access Advisory Committee, Karen Sculley, welcomed the much-needed playspace for people with a disability. “This is fantastic news, it’s been great for committee members to be involved in the design of Goorimahbah – Place of Stories,” Ms Sculley said. “We've been working with Council on this project to make sure the community, and people with disabilities especially, have their say on the draft design so it is accessible and inclusive for all. “Goorimahbah – Place of Stories will become the Tweed’s premier regional inclusive park and playspace and will bring benefits to the community, and attract visitors from across the region,” she said. The project was identified as a high priority in Council's Open Space Strategy 2019 – 2029 and in the Jack Evans Boat Harbour Plan of Management. The park concept plan will be unveiled to the community mid-2021 to allow the public to comment on the proposed design features and refurbishment. Construction is due to begin in early 2022.

Have your say on Salt SLSC car parking options Council is investigating options to provide additional public car parking spaces next to Salt Surf Life Saving Club (SSLSC), to allow the building to be considered for further uses. The current development consent for the SSLSC building has several conditions that limit its use to club and member activities only. This means that the club is currently unable to use the building for activities and uses that are open to the general public. Community land on the northern side of the club, off Bells Boulevard, has been earmarked as the location for the proposed additional car parking. “The club has expressed a need to carry out commercial activities available to non-members in the upper level and deck areas of the building, so it can continue to finance the provision of its community service activities,” Manager Roads and Stormwater Danny Rose said. “For this to happen, a modification to and/or a new development consent will be required. As part of that process, Council must consider what car parking is available to cater for commercial uses. “We want to hear from the community on the proposal and encourage residents to review the three car park design options, then complete the one-minute online survey.” Have your say, review the proposed car parking options and provide your feedback at by Sunday 18 April 2021 by visiting www.yoursaytweed.com.au/salt-surf-life-saving-club-parking There are currently 196 Council-owned parking spaces around Salt Central Park and 95 parking spaces on privately-owned land to service the Mantra Resort, hotel, shops and restaurants.

In other good news ... • Over the next 18 months, Council will build new inclusive playspaces at Tweed Heads West, Tweed Heads, Banora Point and Fingal Head. Have your say on some of these projects at www.yoursaytweed.com.au/parks • Earlier this year, Council was also successful in securing a grant for $138,790 as part of the NSW Government’s Crown Reserves Improvements Fund to replace sections of boardwalk and cycleway with low maintenance composite materials and paving at Jack Evans Boat Harbour. The grant will also fund design changes to increase accessibility and provide more seating and shade areas.

Continued wet weather impacting Tweed roads The ongoing wet weather is impacting on our roads and according to the Bureau of Meteorology, the rains are likely to continue for some time over the next few weeks. Potholes occur when road pavements become saturated. The ongoing wet weather across the Tweed over the last few months means potholes are appearing all across our sealed road network. “The ongoing rains have not only affected our sealed roads but also significantly impacted our gravel roads. We are still working our way through damages from the December floods and January storms, however many are still in need of repair,” Manager Roads and Stormwater Danny Rose said.

Last week we each used

The wet and warm conditions have also seen rapid growth of roadside vegetation. “Our road maintenance crews are working as hard as they can through this wet weather. But some of our routine activities, such as grading and slashing have been delayed. “We encourage all motorists to take care on the road. Slow down, drive to the road conditions and be alert for hazards,” Mr Rose said. While crews continue to work hard, they’re also working their plant and equipment hard. Fortunately, they recently received their new Ausroad HD series truck and CAT roller and trailer for bitumen road patching. The truck comes with additional communications systems, emergency stop features and reversible conveyor system allowing for safer and more efficient operator maintenance. Council fixes more than 25,000 potholes each year. Good asset management practices and improvements to the capabilities of the patching trucks has seen the number of potholes that need to be fixed significantly drop by almost 50 per cent, compared to more than 46,000 seven years ago. Stay safe on the roads and remember, if it’s flooded, forget!

Additional public car parking spaces are proposed on the northern side of the club, off Bells Boulevard.

Fire Safety Practitioner reforms The NSW Government has introduced reforms of the annual certification of fire safety measures and equipment within certain commercial, industrial and residential buildings. Annual fire safety measures within those buildings are to be inspected by an accredited fire safety practitioner. Under these reforms, an updated Annual Fire Safety Statement must be completed by owners of eligible buildings, with effect from 1 March 2021. Further information on this can be found on Council’s webpage www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/firesafety Competent Fire Safety Practitioners are now known as Accredited Practitioners (Fire Safety) and it is a requirement of the NSW Government that only these people are able to check and certify fire safety measures listed on the Fire Safety Schedule for a building where that function is covered by the FPAA scheme. A guide has been developed to assist building owners in selecting and determining that a person is an Accredited Fire Safety Practitioner (Fire Safety). Find the guide by searching ‘selecting an accredited practitioner’ at www.planning.nsw.gov.au You can find a link to a list of Accredited Practitioners in your area via www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/firesafety and clicking on the ‘Fire Safety Practitioners’ drop-down.

Copyright restrictions on Council’s DA Tracker With the recent introduction of key development and building application lodgements through the NSW Government’s Planning Portal (www.planningportal.nsw.gov.au), Council still retains the bulk of its assessments and determination functions. This includes allowing applicants and the public to monitor applications and related modifications through Council’s development application (DA) tracker at datracker.tweed.nsw.gov.au Director Planning and Regulation Vince Connell said viewing key plans and documents for each DA online is a convenient and popular option for the public instead of having to travel into a Council office. “Although it is a great customer service tool, users have a responsibility to adhere to privacy safeguards under various State and Federal legislation,” Mr Connell said. An important piece of Federal legislation, the Copyright Act 1968 operates to prevent people from copying or reproducing other peoples’

work in any material form, without first obtaining their consent. This means that only the creator of the work may copy or reproduce it. The legislation applies to all documents with some form of stated intellectual property, such as building plans, specifications and technical documents typically prepared by consulting specialists, and covers key plans and documents published on Council’s DA Tracker. “Tweed Shire Council has been a leader in the provision of web based ePlanning information and electronic lodgement processes over the last decade,” he said. “While we welcome and encourage the public to access documents through Council’s DA Tracker, we also need to highlight the legal restrictions of copying or reproducing these documents contrary to the Copyright Act.” The restrictions are further explained in the terms and conditions acceptance function each time you access the DA Tracker.

By Jonathon Howard A RAINY day will not keep the cops away, according to Tweed Police, who have expressed shock by the continued high number of drink drivers. “Tweed Byron Police are disappointed with the number of people detected drink driving in recent days and are reminding people, if you are going to drink, don’t drive,’ police said. “The rainy weather will not prevent police from undertaking random breath testing (RBT) across the district. And if you drink and drive, there is a good chance you will be caught.” The renewed calls from police follow a challenging week on the roads, with three motorists caught at almost twice the legal limit. Tweed Police pulled up the first drink driver at about 11pm on Friday, March 19, travelling on Vulcan Street at Kingscliff. A 35-year-old female driver from Kingscliff returned a reading of 0.091. Her driver’s licence was suspended and she will appear before Tweed Heads Local Court in April. The second driver was a 53-year-old female from Bogangar who blew 0.107 at 3.35pm on Saturday, March 20, after she was involved in

Local police say they are not deterred by wet weather, as they continue to crack down on drink drivers

a collision in a Toyota Rav4 at Minjungbal Drive in Tweed Heads South. Tweed Police said her driver’s licence was suspended and she will front Tweed Heads Local Court in April. Last but not least was a 34-year-old Queenslander who blew 0.127 at 12.05am on Saturday. March 20. The man was driving a Hyundai Getz on Enterprise Avenue at Tweed Heads, when he was pulled over by police for a breath test. Tweed Police said his driving privileges in NSW were suspended. He was issued a Court Attendance Notice and he will also appear before Tweed Heads Local Court in April.

Tweed Police take park in border blitz By Jonathon Howard TWEED POLICE took part in a simultaneous cross-border crime blitz with Queensland coppers, setting up multiple pinch points into NSW on Saturday, March 20 and Sunday, March 21. The blitz was organised under the operational title ‘Unison Cost’ and Tweed Police said it was a collaborative, multi-agency, operation conducted on the border to “permeate any real or perceived interstate jurisdictional obstacles to crime prevention”. The operation took place between the hours of 9pm and 1am with a stationary random breath testing (RBT) operation on the Pacific Highway at the Tugun tunnel. “Simultaneously, mobile RBT was conducted on other entry points to NSW,” police said.

“Torrential rain throughout the operation hampered vehicular movement, however the following incidents were recorded in NSW; 80 RBTs, one CIN [criminal infringement notice] for offensive conduct, four drug detections, five person searches, and four vehicle searches. “Charges include a 41-year-old Tweed Heads man with drug possession of 3.19 grams of meth, a 27-year-old Banora Point man charged with drug possession of cannabis and meth, and a 48-year-old man from Tweed Heads with drug possession including meth, possession of a knife (machete) and possession of a prohibited weapon (knuckle dusters).” Queensland Police reported the following results from 100 RBTs; 20 traffic infringement notices, six drink-driving offences and three drug-driving offences.

“TWEED’S CHOICE in FOOT CARE”

By Jo Kennett THE HOUSING crisis in the Tweed Shire has seen The Family Centre launch a campaign to support young people and raise awareness of youth homelessness, and is seeking local sponsorship. The Home Starter Pack Campaign is part of The Family Centre’s Connecting Home Program, which supports more than 400 young people between the ages of 15 and 24 who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. “Whilst we can support some of these young people to stay at home or maintain their tenancy, many cannot stay at home due to family and domestic violence, and drug and alcohol misuse by their parents and carers,” Manager of Connecting Home, Gerina Appo, said. “The lack of housing stock and the rental affordability crisis in our region continues to deepen. “In February, 54 young people presented to our Connecting Home Program for assistance. This is the highest ever in a single month.

“When a home is found for a young person, due to their circumstances they often have minimal funds for start-up costs of setting up a home.” The Home Starter Packs include essentials such as kitchen utensils, cookware, appliances, linen and cleaning goods, and cost $500 each. The Family Centre is looking to our community to support this campaign “as a family, with friends, or as a workplace.” Julie West from MBA Partnerships was the first to donate to the campaign with $2,500, which will buy five packs. There are a number of youths in the Tweed Shire who are either studying at TAFE, or university, or working, that will need Home Starter Packs. April 14 is Youth Homelessness Matters Day and The Family Centre hopes to have another 20 Home Starter packs donated for young people to set up their new homes. If you can help, please contact call Jo Blanchard at The Family Centre on (07) 5524 8711 or email job@thefamilycentre.org.au.

Teen leads police on cross-border chase By Jonathon Howard TWEED POLICE were called into a cross-border pursuit with Queensland Police on Thursday, March 18, after a suspected stolen Mercedes Benz GLC crossed the border at speed around 4pm. The car had two boys, 13 and 16, and a 23-year-old, with the vehicle reaching speeds of up to 150km per hour. The speeds were so dangerous local police were forced to call off the pursuit, but Queensland’s PolAir kept on their trail. “With the assistance from PolAir, officers continued to monitor the vehicle, where it allegedly crossed onto the incorrect side of the road, narrowly missing several vehicles,” police said. “The Mercedes stopped on Bimbadeen Avenue [Banora Point], where Tweed/Byron Proactive Crime Team officers arrested all three occupants, who were taken to Tweed Heads Police Station.” Police said the vehicle was being driven by the 16-year-old and was suspected of being stolen from a Surfers Paradise home earlier that day.

The 16-year-old boy was due to front a children’s court with a long list of charges, including two counts of resisting police, failing to stop and driving dangerously, and a range of other offences. The 13-year-old Queensland boy was charged with joyriding and receiving property stolen outside of NSW. Both teenagers were refused bail to appear at a children’s court on Friday, March 19. “A 23-year-old Worongary man was charged with be carried in conveyance taken without consent of owner [joyriding], possess/attempt to prescribed restricted substance and receive property stolen outside NSW,” police said. “He was refused bail to appear at Tweed Heads Local Court on Friday, March 19.” Anyone with information about this incident is urged to contact Crime Stoppers: 1800 333 000 or https://nsw.crimestoppers.com.au. Information is treated in strict confidence. The public is reminded not to report information via NSW Police social media pages.

Fire devastates Cudgen Cricket Club By Jo Kennett A FIRE has caused thousands-of-dollars worth of damage to the Cudgen Cricket Club at Kingscliff on Tuesday, March 16, just as the first grade side prepare for the grand final. Emergency Services were called to a bin fire at the Reg Dalton Oval change rooms at 2.30am. As Fire and Rescue Kingscliff approached the club, they saw flames coming from the eaves of the changing room facility and called in for additional resources from Fire and Rescue Tweed Heads and Fire and Rescue Banora Point. The crews got to work with a line of hose and crew wearing breathing apparatus. The fire started in an external shed and was quickly extinguished, but not before it got into the eaves, causing damage to the change rooms and cracking across the front side bricks. NSW Ambulance and NSW Police Force were also in attendance. Tweed-Byron Police District are investigating the cause of the fire, and anybody with

information in relation to this fire are urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or Tweed Heads Police. President of Cudgen Cricket Club, Jamie Wilson, said a fire had been lit in the shed in a bin underneath the trolley where their wicket covers were stored. “We lost our brand-new centre wicket covers that were worth $3,000 and also our backup covers,” Jamie said. “They put rubbish underneath the trolley and lit it up, but we’re not sure if they used accelerants. ‘We’re not covered by insurance, so it’s close to $6,000 to rebuild the shed and replace the covers. “It cracked the bricks of the change room so we’re not allowed to use those, but it’s Council property, so they have to make that call. “Council hasn’t got back to us, but we are pretty sure it will be condemned. “It’s disappointing leading up to our grand final, but we’re a pretty resilient club and we will be okay.”

Anzac Day will go ahead at Kingscliff

Go girls - Tweed’s women and girls to try triathlons

ANZAC DAY: The Kingscliﬀ RSL Sub-Branch Anzac Day service will go ahead

World War II through to more recent conflicts, and Mr Vickery said the march is very important for returning service men and women. “We still have a few second World War and Korean veterans, but our veterans are principally from Malaya, Borneo and Vietnam, and we are getting quite a few new veterans from Iraq, Timor and Afghanistan marching as well,” he said. “I really think the Anzac Day March gives veterans a sense of self-worth, it is not an easy thing to serve, particularly in something like the Afghanistan conflict. “Some of those members were over there three or four times and they still believe they did a very good job and rightly so, and I think they deserve a bit of recognition, and they get that by marching on Anzac Day. “I think it’s also an opportunity for the public to show they believe these guys did a very, very good job and helps us to become a community of people who are better at understanding the problems that veterans have when they come back from a war zone.” Mr Vickery said the sub-branch were looking forward to being able to hold a

service and a march, having missed out on a service last year. “We already have our COVID clearance plan and police approval to hold a march, so at this stage everything is looking positive,” he said. The Kingscliff Anzac Day marches and services will adhere to social distancing and provide COVID stations, and will have restrictions on the number of people marching. “We normally have 400 to 450 in the march, including school children, but we’ve cut it back to about 150 this year. “We can’t have anyone else in the march this year other than veterans or their next of kin.” Mr Vickery, who is a Vietnam veteran, said he believes it is important to continue to recognise those who have served. “I did 13 months in Vietnam and wrote a book about that called ‘Down the Mountain’, which is an autobiography not only about my time, but about my father and my two uncles, because they’d also been to war and had been shot, and I believed that needed to be recorded in history.”

By Megan Albany WOMEN AND girls who have always wanted to try triathlon events will now have the opportunity to dip their toe in the water, in a non-competitive and supportive environment. Tweed Valley Triathletes recently announced they will be running an introductory triathlon program during April for teenage girls and women. The new program has been specifically designed for females who have not previously been involved in the sport, but would like to have a try. Spokesperson for the triathlon club, which conducts triathlon events every Saturday in Murwillumbah, Sharnah Bowen, said they wanted to encourage women and girls who were looking for a fun, healthy way to get back into their fitness, to attend. “The club is offering women and girls the opportunity to learn about our sport and participate in a non-competitive environment,” Ms Bowen said. “We are calling the program ‘Finish Lines – not Finish Times’ to emphasise that the program is about participation rather than competition. “ “Because triathlon combines swimming, cycling and running, it is a great sport for those who like a bit of variety in their efforts to gain and maintain fitness.” The program, which includes free coaching, will culminate on Saturday, May 1, with a women’s and girl’s triathlon event at Tweed Regional Aquatic Centre (TRAC) in Murwillumbah. The first training session takes place on April 6 from 5.45pm to 7pm at TRAC, with a different event every Saturday thereafter, rotating between swimming, bike riding and running sessions. The introductory event aims to cover a 250m pool swim, as well as a 7km bike ride and a 2km run over a flat course. Women and girls interested in participating in the program can register and get further information from the Tweed Valley Triathletes website at www.tweedvalleytri.com.au

By Megan Albany KINGSCLIFF RSL Sub-branch have announced they will be joining the Pottsville and Burringbar branch to remember veterans this Anzac Day. While other Tweed branches will not be marching due to COVID restrictions, Kingscliff RSL Sub-branch VicePresident Brian Vickery OAM, said his members had voted to go ahead with the march and this year they will remember another veteran who sadly, recently passed away. “We have a dawn service at 5.30am at the Cudgen School in Collier Street and then we will be having a march starting at the Kingscliff Beach Bowls Club at 10.30am, followed by the main service at Kingscliff,” he said. Mr Vickery said that remembering past members was one of the reasons he believed it was important to march this year, despite the difficulties of obtaining permits during the ongoing pandemic. “We lost our oldest member in the last two weeks, he was a Kiwi and an ex-President, and was a very important member of our sub-branch,” Mr Vickery said. The member, Robert Brumfit, who was 93 years old, had been a veteran of World War II, Korea and Vietnam. “When he first joined in England he was in the navy and then when he went to New Zealand, he switched to the airforce, then transferred to the Australian Airforce. We were very sad when we lost him. “When we do the march it is for the personal recognition of the veterans who are marching and the service is about remembering all those who went before us.” Kingscliff RSL Sub-branch members have fought in a range of conflicts from

Koala Day of Action hears shocking repercussions of SEPP changes By Jonathon Howard MORE THAN 200 locals and visitors turned out to voice their fears for the future of koalas, after sweeping amendments to the State Environment Planning Policy (SEPP 21), which they say may lead to its demise. The gathering was organised by Northern Rivers Guardians (NRG) and was titled #SaveOurKoalas Day of Action. A strong and enthusiastic crowd of around 200 listened to NRG’s president Scott Sledge and guest speakers including Dailan Pugh OAM from North East Forest Alliance (NEFA) and local animal and environmental activist Susie Hearder. Speakers explained the impacts of the changes to the SEPP, which will result in a total of 82 per cent of the Tweed Shire’s koala trees receiving “no protection”. “NRG’s message is simple,” said Mr Sledge. “Without immediate and urgent a c t i o n t o p e r m a n e n t ly h a l t government sanctioned habitat destruction on private and public land by individuals and companies with commercial vested interests, the Northern Rivers and NSW will lose its remaining koala populations, which have already been significantly impacted from ongoing and unmitigated habitat loss and the Black Summer bushfires.” NRG event organiser Lori Scinto said, “NRG distributed flyers to those who attended, encouraging people to contact NSW members

of parliament to demand immediate and meaningful legislative reforms. “One of the demands was for the urgent implementation of all 42 recommendations from the bipartisan NSW Inquiry into koala populations and habitat in NSW”. Ms Scinto said the government has only agreed to support 11 of the 42 recommendations. NRG highlighted that Council will be prohibited from protecting core koala habitat in environmental zones. “Private native forestry has not been a major issue in the Tweed, but it is now likely we will see accelerated tree clearing in the majority of rural lands that are outside of the coastal strip,” a statement to The Weekly from NRG said. “SEPP 21 removes information sharing when landholders need more information – not less on koala habitat on their properties. “They need to be encouraged (financially) that they can provide a community benefit by looking after koala habitat and increasing carbon storage on their lands.” This all comes despite a 2018 survey that found that 65-70 per cent of Australians consider logging native forests “unacceptable”. “The SEPP 21 benefits very few – while its destructive impacts will negatively impact us all,” the group said. “Major issues for all of north east NSW include that 90 per cent of private forests zoned for primary production or forestry will not be subject to SEPP 21.

PEACEFUL PROTEST: More than 200 residents joined in protest against recent changes to the SEPP 21

“This amounts to 2.4 million hectares of private native forests in north east NSW that will stay under old SEPP 44 with its very narrow and proven ineffective definitions of koala habitat.“With over 60 per cent of core koala habitat on private lands, their very survival is at stake.” Local koala advocate Marion Riordan said those in power have been “playing footy with koala policy since the devastating bushfires last year”.

“There were calls across the country to reform koala protections after huge koala losses,” she said. “But instead, policy reformers have kicked a series of home goals and koalas have lost big time. “Council will be unable to monitor when koala food trees are cleared for logging or other ‘agricultural activity’, including fencing, sheds, buffers – part of quite a long list. “Council won’t know when this is happening because landholders

will be allowed to ‘self-assess their vegetation’. “Landholders are unlikely to know either because there is no incentive for them to find out. “Something is very wrong here. We don’t expect farmers to carry the burden of protecting koala habitat across regional NSW, but we should be rewarding them for retaining these precious old trees and the value this brings for koalas, birds and crop pollinators.”

Art comp launched by Momentum Collective By Jonathon Howard LOCAL COMMUNITY service provider Momentum Collective has launched a competition to find original artwork for its 2021 Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP). The competition is open to local Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people and the winning prize is $500. Aboriginal Engagement Specialist Tammy Johnson (pictured below) said the artwork should represent a vision for reconciliation. “Momentum Collective’s vision for reconciliation in Australia is one where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples of this country are returned to a place of equality, dignity and respect,” she said. “As a nation, we must continue to Close the Gap through the recognition of values, beliefs and practices in order to relate and work together more effectively.” The theme for Reconciliation Week in 2021 is ‘more than a word’ and Ms Johnson says the search for an original artwork is part of Momentum’s commitment to create

opportunities for local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists to showcase their work. “This is part of our reconciliation journey,” Ms Johnson said. “We want to create meaningful opportunities for local communities. “This is our third RAP and it is really important to us that the artwork on the cover is a creation by an Aboriginal and/ or Torres Strait Islander artist who lives and works in one of the communities supported by Momentum.” Submissions close on April 2. For more information and details on how to enter, head to the Momentum Collective website www. mymomentum.org.au/RAP

Study to look at light rail to Tweed By Jonathon Howard A NEW study will investigate a potential light rail connection from Coolangatta to Tweed Heads. NSW Minister for Regional Transport and Roads Paul Toole said the government is delivering on its $1 million election commitment to investigate bringing light rail to the Tweed. “We remain committed to developing a stronger public transport offering as part of our vision for a safer, stronger regional NSW,” Mr Toole said. “The NSW and Queensland governments signed a Memorandum of Understanding last year to assess the busy cross-border region’s needs. “We’re now moving to the next stage of the process, with a new Multi Modal Corridor Study to identify a suitable five-kilometre corridor for a future light rail extension from Coolangatta to the Tweed, while Queensland will investigate the corridor to the north.

“Jacobs has been appointed to carry out this study, and we look forward to presenting draft findings to the community for feedback in early 2022, with the study expected to be completed by mid-2022.” Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said the study would identify better connections between the Tweed and Gold Coast, including the airport and university, for the 30,000 daily cross-border commuters. “The Multi Modal Corridor Study will also tie into the Place-based Transport Plan for Tweed Shire, which will provide a vision for how the local transport network, infrastructure and services will be managed and developed to realise the long-term needs of our local community,” Mr Provest said. “This Place-based Transport Plan will ensure that transport systems are developed to support future land use changes, and to better connect communities as we deliver on our vision to make public transport a firstchoice option for locals.”

Provide your input to shape Council parks By Jonathon Howard THREE TWEED Shire parks are up for significant improvements and Tweed Shire Council is asking residents to help design the park and playspace upgrades. Council has already completed 15 parks across the shire, including the popular Knox Park in Murwillumbah, with only Coral Street Park at Bilambil Heights, Clarrie Englert Park at Tweed Heads West and Banora Point Community Centre Park left. Possible improvements for the three parks include the addition of inclusive play equipment, seating, pathways, picnic facilities, landscaping and tree planting for natural shade.

“Last year residents completed a community survey to inform draft concept designs for Clarrie Englert Park and Banora Point Community Centre Park,” Council said. “These draft designs are now on public exhibition for feedback from residents.” Council said Bilambil Heights residents – where the design process for Coral Street Park is just beginning – are invited to share their ideas and have their say on the upgrade as part of a community survey. “This survey will then inform a draft concept design for the park,” Council said. All residents can visit www.yoursaytweed.com. au/parks to give their feedback or complete the survey for any or all of the three parks, up until Friday, March 26.

Council moves forward with beautification Council to look at camphor laurel impacts By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE Council has applied for a NSW Government grant to beautify Murwillumbah’s CBD. Council’s plans, titled ‘The Murwillumbah High Street Beautification Project’, were submitted to the NSW Department of Planning, Industry, and Environment, at a total cost of $677,378. On January 28, Tweed Shire Council submitted an application to the “Your High Street” grant initiative, with the aim to “enhance amenity and functionality of Wollumbin Street, focusing on the southern frontage between Commercial Road and Brisbane Street, and extending to the town’s entry point (Visitor Information Centre)”.

Council said the main elements of the project include tree planting along the footpath, street furniture that incorporate plants and public art (using a similar approach to the Streets as Shared Spaces project), minor upgrades to pedestrian blisters and roundabouts, and pathway and landscape improvements. The total budget for the project is $677,378, inclusive of a $51,600 Council contribution. Cr Pryce Allsop said he was pleased the grant submission had been made, but also felt more was needed to beautify the CBD and entrance into Murwillumbah. “It is a great step for the CBD, but there’s still a long way to go,” he said. Successful applications will be announced in May 2021 and the deadline to complete the project is one year.

By Jonathon Howard QUESTIONS AROUND the impacts of the weed tree camphor laurel on water quality was raised by Cr Pryce Allsop at Tweed Shire Council’s Thursday, March 18, meeting, that he hopes will uncover more about one of the Tweed Shire’s most invasive evergreens. Cr Allsop successfully moved to investigate whether the camphor laurel has an impact on water quality and said part of his reasoning for this motion was persistent concerns from Cr Katie Milne about erosion and water quality, including the impact from plant species. “There have been big questions from farmers about the impacts of camphor laurel on the marine life and health of our river systems,” he said. “I’ve heard from several landholders who have witnessed the decline of aquatic animals, including platypus, that have disappeared around the time camphor laurel trees grew on the riverbanks.” According to the Department of Primary Industries, camphor laurel is “mildly toxic to humans, and mild symptoms may occur if large quantities are eaten”. “All parts of the plant are poisonous and can cause nausea, vomiting and respiratory distress,” DPI’s website reads. “Allergic skin reactions can also occur.” Council’s report said the claim has not been investigated, but highlighted it would “require significant resourcing for highly specialised expertise”. “There would be greater benefit in this funding going to on-ground works for proven water quality improvement initiatives to manage the issues listed above,” Council’s report reads. But Cr Allsop highlighted that some landholders can risk heavy fines for removing large numbers (greater than 10) of camphor laurel trees. “There’s lots of valid reasons why these fines are in place, but there’s a need to acknowledge camphor laurel as the pest tree that it is and

what it might be doing to our waterways,” he said. “But if a study is carried out and can reveal more about the impacts or perceived impacts of the camphor, then the discussion changes. “My question is, what is the net effect of many camphor laurel across the environment – at what stage does it become a critical mass?” Cr Allsop’s motion, which was seconded by Cr Warren Polglase, calls on council staff to develop a study on the effects of camphor laurel on water and that a report be created and shared to provide a greater understanding of water quality issues related to camphor laurel. “We need to remove the species to improve the water quality, if the report finds it is impacting the water quality,” Cr Allsop said. “We need to better understand the issues and make a stand to protect our land, and landowners, and environment. Additional considerations may be cross-contamination from alternate noxious plant species. This too should be explored.” However, Council’s report highlighted many of the known impacts to waterways, including the release of sediments and acid sulfate soil run-off. “The known impact is from unmanaged disturbance of riverbank vegetation (of any type, native or non-native) and release of sediments and nutrient loads both in the vegetation removal stage and ongoing if restoration works with native vegetation are not undertaken,” Council’s report reads. Council said drivers of poor water quality in Tweed waterways include sediment and nutrient loads from the “catchments, agricultural run-off (including the impact of cattle accessing waterways), acid sulfate soil run-off, insufficient native vegetation on the riverbanks, point sources such as industrial and treated effluent disposal, and diffuse sources such as stormwater”.

Tweed clinics waiting on vaccine By Jo Kennett A NUMBER of medical centres in the Tweed Shire have been listed on the Federal Government’s website as vaccinations centres, but are yet to receive the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine. The Weekly contacted many of the centres on the website, who were all waiting on delivery, but said they had been inundated with enquiries, which was making the dayto-day operation of the clinics difficult. Most of the medical centres said they will be contacting their eligible patients when they receive the vaccines so there is no need to call. The federal government recently announced that Phase 1B vaccinations would be available at selected medical centres from Monday, March 22. The 1,000 medical centres involved in the second phase of the rollout weren’t advised that it was being announced, with local centres suddenly finding themselves being inundated with phone queries, but having no idea when they would receive the vaccines or how many doses each practice would get. The floods have caused further delays, with the government saying vaccine delivery was being affected. Those eligible for Phase 1B vaccinations include health care workers who haven’t

yet received the jab, those aged over 70, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders aged over 55, younger adults with underlying medical conditions, and critical and highrisk workers. As the rollout moves into phase two, more general practices and selected community pharmacists will also join the vaccination program. As of March 23, clinics listed as vaccination centres are Kennedy Drive Medical Centre, Tweed Heads; Queen Street Medical Centre, Murwillumbah; Tweed Banora Medical Centre, Tweed Heads South; Banora Point Medical Centre, Banora Point; Banora Shopping Village Medical Centre, Banora Point; Tweed Health for Everyone Superclinic, Tweed Heads South; Main Street Medical Centre, Murwillumbah; Cabarita Beach Medical Centre, Cabarita Beach and the Murwillumbah Respiratory Clinic at King Street Medical Centre, Murwillumbah. Cabarita Beach Medical Centre and the Murwillumbah Respiratory Clinic advise patients that vaccinations won’t be available until after Easter and must be booked online at https://ksmc.com.au/book-online. Check your eligibility for a vaccine on https://covid-vaccine.healthdirect.gov.au/ eligibility

VACCINE: The COVID-19 vaccine is coming to the Tweed soon

Views sought on Salt Club parking activities available to non-members in the upper level and deck areas of the building. “So it can continue to finance the provision of its community service activities,” Mr Rose said. “For this to happen, a modification to and/or a new development consent will be required. As part of that process, Council must consider what car parking is available to cater for commercial uses. “We want to hear from the community on the proposal and encourage residents to review the three car park design options, then complete the one-minute online survey.” There are currently 196 Council-owned parking spaces around Salt Central Park and 95 parking spaces on privately-owned land to service the Mantra Resort, hotel, shops and restaurants. Have your say, review the proposed car parking options and provide your feedback at yoursaytweed.com.au/salt-surf-lifesaving-club-parking by Sunday, April 18.

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE Council is appealing for the public’s views around options for more car parking next to the Salt Surf Life Saving Club (SSLSC), to allow greater use of the building. Council said the current development consent for the SSLSC building has several conditions, “that limit its use to club and member activities only”. “This means that the club is currently unable to use the building for activities and uses that are open to the general public,” Council said in a media statement. “Community land on the northern side of the club, off Bells Boulevard, has been earmarked as the location for the proposed additional car parking.” Council’s Manager of Roads and Stormwater Danny Rose said the club has expressed a need to carry out commercial

AT THE time of writing this column, our region and partnering towns in the Northern Rivers and further south into NSW, as well as south-east Queensland, are being severely impacted by heavy rainfall, storms and flooding in some cases – a devastating start to autumn and another blow for our towns, businesses and the tourism industry. While the forecasts seem to indicate the easing of rain, the impacts of weather conditions such as these take time to overcome and we’re aware that local tourism operators have once again been affected, with cancelled tours or reduced bookings, and our support and thoughts are with these businesses. This terrible deluge of rain has come on the heels of news last week that brought optimism to the tourism industry, with the announcement of a $1.2 billion tourism support package, including 800,000 subsidised half-price flights to drive travel within Australia. Set to go on sale on April 1, the flight sale initiative now seems even more important in encouraging Australians to support rainaffected areas with a regional holiday when it’s safe to return to impacted towns. As part of this subsidy scheme, Qantas announced it will be putting on 35 extra

return flights into the Gold Coast every week, which is welcome news following the challenges of this week. Also pointing to better days ahead are the new twice-daily Rex services from Melbourne and Sydney to the Gold Coast, set to kick off on April 1 with competitive fares. Tweed Tourism Company has been preparing a supportive campaign for April to position the rich and diverse experiences on offer in the Tweed, and we’ll be planning to roll this campaign out to support our tourism businesses across the region. In the meantime, we wish you a safe and happy Easter break coming up and hope that you can enjoy some fun and sunshine with your family and friends in the beautiful Tweed.

Dine and Discover for Tweed businesses

85886

By Jo Kennett THE NSW Government’s Dine and Discover dining, entertainment and recreation vouchers are now available to help support businesses ‒ although there’s been some delays between Tweed Shire businesses registering and being listed online. Locals can now apply online for two $25 Dine NSW vouchers with Service NSW. The vouchers are for dining at restaurants, cafés, bars, wineries, pubs or clubs, and can be used seven days a week, despite advice to the contrary initially. However, many local businesses that had registered weren’t coming up on the government website, so business owners are advising locals to contact their chosen venue to see if they are registered. When searching the website, if you enter a suburb, you have to click on the drop down box with the name and postcode or nothing comes up. Pandanus Cafe and Licensed Restaurant owner Kerri Sommerville said their business

had registered, but it had taken a while to come up online. “I think it would be advisable for everyone to check with the venue and not rely on the Service NSW search engine, as it took a while for Pandanus to appear, although we registered weeks ago,” Kerri told The Weekly. “We have started to receive vouchers; Service NSW did a sudden change over the weekend and made the dine ones available seven days per week. “From what I can see, there is only one venue in Cabarita Beach accepting them, which is us, but if you put Bogangar in the search, the sports club and two Thai restaurants also show up. Two $25 Discover NSW Vouchers for entertainment and recreation, including cultural institutions, some cinemas, live music, and arts venues, are also available and can be used seven days a week. Vouchers can only be used once, cannot be used on public holidays and are valid until June 30 this year.

State government purchases Bogangar land Call for women to run By Jo Kennett BOGANGAR LOCALS and koala lovers were thrilled to hear that the NSW government has acquired a block of land at the back of the village to be added to the Cudgen Nature Reserve. Hundreds of people took to social media calling it “the best news” and “amazing”, after Tweed MP Geoff Provest posted the news on his website, acknowledging the work of local koala lovers in petitioning for the purchase of Lot 2, Clothiers Creek Road, Bogangar. “I am thrilled to share some good news,” Mr Provest said in a press release. “I met with Environment Minister Matt Kean yesterday (Thursday, March 18) and he confirmed the National Parks and Wildlife Service team has recently exchanged contracts for the site. “I look forward to being able to share more information once the technical legal steps have been finalised, hopefully in coming weeks. “I want to thank the community for its advocacy in securing this great outcome for the Tweed.’ Bogangar’s Sonny Hintz organised a petition to save the land, that was signed by nearly 15,000 people, and handed over to Mr Provest to present to Mr Kean in early February. “Chris Eaton (from Round Mountain Girls) originally posted about it on the Bogangar Facebook page, saying if we didn’t do something now we would lose this land,” Sonny told The Weekly. “I just had to do something; everyone was doing the Community Acquisition Proposals and I thought about how we

could get everyone’s voice behind us and decided to do the petition. “When it came up as being sold, I rang Geoff’s office and they couldn’t say anything, but said they hoped they would have good news. “I was a bit overwhelmed when I heard the news, but I’m just ecstatic and grateful to Geoff and Matt Kean and all the community. “I was told the fantastic response to the petition was a big part of the decision to purchase the land.” President of Cudgen Nature Reserve (CNR) John McDonagh said he was very happy with the land acquisition which “will increase the area of high biodiversity under protection within CNR” “We’ve been working on enlarging CNR for over 20 years and when it came up for sale we made representations to Geoff Provest, as did the Caldera Environment Centre and Friends of the Koala,” John said. “We felt it had really good environmental values, not only for

koalas, but also for other wildlife with the wetlands and blackbutt forests. “We were really pleased the community was granted its wishes and the land isn’t going to be under risk of development. “We still don’t have a link between from west to the east of the reserve, but we asked for the Tweed Shire Koala Management Plan – which has been there for three years – to be implemented and that’s happening. “At the same time, the NSW government has made changes to the statewide koala SEPP, which essentially withdraws protection for koalas to massive areas elsewhere in the state, including important areas like Mount Nullum and the corridor between it, and Wollumbin National Park, which are unprotected. “We are so grateful for a small win for the area, but hugely concerned for the massive loss of protection for koalas statewide.”

TWEED SHIRE women with an interest in running for council at the election on Saturday, September 4, are invited to attend a free forum hosted by the Australian Local Government Women’s Association of NSW (ALGWA NSW). Tweed Shire Council said the forum forms part of a statewide campaign aimed at encouraging more participation by women in local government. The forum will be held at the Tweed Heads Administration Office on Tuesday, April 27, from 10am to 12pm, immediately prior to the candidate briefing sessions to be hosted by Council later that day. Penrith City Mayor Karen McKeown and Cr Denise Wilton, a former mayor at Mosman Council, will present at the forum. Both councillors are executive committee members of ALGWA NSW. Mayor of Tweed Cr Chris Cherry will provide an official welcome at the forum. The forum will focus on the process involved, as well as the current situation in NSW and the lived experience of being a councillor. The latest figures from the Office of Local Government show women represent just 31 per cent of the 1,300 councillors serving on the state’s 128 local councils. Council’s General Manager Troy Green (pictured below) said it was crucial women’s voices were heard at Council. “Women should be better represented in the decisionmaking process of local government and I encourage anyone thinking of running for Council to attend the forum,” he said. “Council deals with the everyday things that make living in the Tweed so good – such as roads, rubbish, water, sewerage, parks, beaches, and the list goes on. “The role of councillor therefore requires a significant time commitment and this needs to be considered when making the decision to run for election.” The forum is free of charge, but bookings are limited due to COVID-19 restrictions. Prospective female candidates interested in attending the forum should make a booking at: https:// t w e e dw o m e n s f o r u m a l g w a . eventbrite.com.au

Sweet Talk with Robert Hawken Hawken with

Time for tough talks on river THE CONTINUING severe weather event in coastal NSW has caused considerable property damage and evacuations for many people. The Tweed Shire has so far been fortunate to escape the worst, but we are mindful of the disastrous flood of 2017 and know that the weather can be extreme at any time of the year. The Tweed’s rural community has endured many major floods for generations, but many people are now concerned that with the increasing effect of climate change, the severity of these weather events will increase the damage to property and infrastructure, in both built-up and agricultural areas, causing significant disruption to people’s lives. It is well time that relevant local and state government bodies plan to do all they can to mitigate the flooding impact on the coastal floodplains.

The severe deterioration in efficacy of our coastal creeks and Tweed River needs to be acknowledged and addressed. Government instrumentalities seem to have lost sight of a primary function of a river – to transport excess water from the catchment and floodplains into the ocean. The Tweed River, like many other coastal rivers, suffers from increasing siltation, causing constriction of the channels and severe bank erosion. Opponents of dredging or removing debris that stop the flow of water use environmental concerns, but the argument against returning the river system to its natural state is flawed. Rather, these concerns are an excuse to do nothing. To those who doubt my words, I suggest you take a long boat trip up the Tweed River and see for yourself, I welcome feedback from the public. Till next time, Rob Hawken.

Jobs boon at new hospital site By Jonathon Howard THREE LOCAL businesses have been awarded contracts on the new $673-million Tweed Valley Hospital project recently and Member for Tweed Geoff Provest says there could be more employment wins on the way. Mr Provest said since securing the main works contract, Lendlease has awarded subcontracts to local Tweed businesses for concrete supply, vegetation management and electrical supply. “In addition to this, three other businesses located within the region have been selected to deliver formwork, reinforcement supply and site office facilities for the project,” he said. “These large infrastructure projects present significant opportunities for local businesses, not just for the people working on site, but also for our local suppliers.” Lendlease will continue to award subcontractor packages throughout the next two years as the main works progress. The hospital is on track to open to patients in 2023. “Opportunities don’t stop when construction on the Tweed Valley Hospital project is complete – experience and training

adds up to improved career prospects for our next generation of tradies,” Mr Provest said. “That’s why we’ll continue to inform the local community where these opportunities are, through events like the Industry Briefing for local businesses, and the ‘Get Work Ready Expo’ that were run throughout early works.” Aboriginal employment is also listed as a top priority for the contractor, which Mr Provest commended for its engagement efforts. “Lendlease has just welcomed two new Aboriginal apprentices on site and is exceeding NSW government targets for Aboriginal employment during the main works,” Mr Provest said. “This builds on Lendlease’s achievements during early works, where on average 12 per cent of the total workforce identified as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander. “During the early works phase of the project, our team inducted more than 200 local workers to site,” Lendlease’s General Manager Brad Protheroe said. “This was primarily thanks to the commitment of our subcontractor network and partnerships with local service providers.” For more information please visit the website at www.tweedvalleyhospital.health.nsw.gov.au

Looking for Jesus in all the wrong places. As an absent-minded child, I frequently misplaced things. I can remember my mother’s constant refrain each time I told her I had lost something; “where did you last leave it?” I always thought this was a silly question, for if I knew where I last left it, it wouldn’t be lost! I’ve since realized that what mum was trying to do was to get me to retrace my steps, in order to relocate whatever it was I had misplaced. Now whilst this is typically an effective way to find what has been lost, it is not always the case. The women who went to the tomb to anoint Jesus’ body with spices and ointments (cf. Luke 24:1), whom they had lost to the cruel cross of crucifixion, took this exact approach. They retraced their steps back to where they saw the tomb in which the body of Jesus was laid (cf. Matthew 27:61), but to their astonishment, the tomb was empty, for he had risen from the dead! 2000 years after this earthshattering event, many are still looking for Jesus in all the wrong places. For example, there are those who regard Jesus as one of the greatest religious teachers who has ever lived, even as one who lived the most influential life the world had even known, but then he died, and that was that. This simply will not do. Jesus is not dead, for he has risen and his resurrection confirms that he is not merely an historical figure, but the living Lord over the entire universe. After numerous other failed attempts to locate the so-called ‘real Jesus’, it is not surprising to find him right back where we left him, as the risen, living Lord of the universe, just as the eyewitness accounts of the New Testament testify. It seems my mum was right after all. Easter Blessings, Rev Lyndon Anglican Rector of Murwillumbah

Pastor’s Robert & Helga Spence Conxions Church Murwillumbah “I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death.” Revelation 1:18, NKJV So much happened at Calvary’s cross over two thousand years ago. Jesus Christ was mocked by soldiers, beaten, and nailed to the cross. It looked like it was over when they laid His body in the tomb. All of hell was rejoicing. They had ﬁnally defeated Him. But in the heavens, God didn’t panic. He didn’t say, “What happened? My plan failed.” The earthly court said Jesus was defeated, but the Judge of all the earth said, “Overruled.” Jesus came out of the grave on the third day and declared, “I am He who lives. I was dead, but I am alive forevermore.” If God can overrule death and the forces of darkness, don’t you think He can overrule anything that’s holding you back. No matter what bondage or stronghold has held you captive, when you acknowledge Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior, you receive His power that will set you free.

at the Footy with Quinny

ANOTHER CRACKING week of footy starting with the Storm Parra game played in dismal conditions but nothing but high quality, none more so than Mika Siiiiiivo on the wing latching onto two beauties. I agree with the blow up about Kaufusi and the elbow to the head as it wasn’t a good look and has crept into the game a bit for players who can’t protect themselves. Bradman Best put his name up in lights well and truly with two quality performances. The Titans have now won their last three in a row against the Broncos and maybe the little brother term is not appropriate anymore. The Titans were simply much better. I was thrilled to see Fifita bounce back

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals The Roosters have started so well and still have an envious roster on the sideline. I’m thoroughly enjoying seeing Keary all over the park and on the ball, it’s refreshing to watch. In saying that the West Tigers are in strife early also, they never looked like being a threat at all. The Raiders should have won by panels but in a positive sign for the club they fought hard and apart from a couple of dodgy goal kicks they could have got the job done. A few trials this weekend hopefully pending weather. Some local rep footy and finals struggled to get underway but the safety of everyone is paramount. The Titans training facility at Robina was a metre underwater Monday afternoon. The gap between the top and the bottom is pretty evident even after round two, let’s see if that changes this week. See you at the footy, Quinny.

after round one and Tino was worth every cent they have paid for him. Seeing Jamal Fogarty playing so well coming out of the Q cup is awesome and team captain to boot. I loved hearing Holbrook say that not making the finals would be a ‘failure’, it puts the standards firmly out there and what is expected. The concerns for Brisbane are there very early on and they need to put Dearden in and asap. They seem to be on the front and back page of the paper for poor reasons at the moment. Penrith have started the season really well and although they haven’t beat much, they look to be in complete control. What a grand final rematch we have this Thursday coming up, it should be a beauty. Two games and six tries for Brett Morris is simply phenomenal.

CELEBRATING 10 YEARS OF FRESH LOCAL PRODUCE

What’s NEWS at the Market?

ONE OF the many wonderful aspects of our market is how many stallholders that began in the early days of the market are still with us. Occasionally though retirement beckons, and this has been the case

for Ian McRae at Nudgel Nuts. For a number of years and he has steadfastly resisted but alas all good things do come to an end. We have been the very lucky ones that he gave us a few extra years. Thanks Ian. We have enjoyed and delighted in Nudgel Nuts for the best part of the last 10 years so it is with wistful sadness that we say farewell to Ian whom we all know well and Leone who has been in the background but a force behind the business. Their well-deserved retirement has begun and we wish them all the very best in the years ahead as they find more time to embark on their love of travelling and enjoy more relaxed family time too. Ian has blessed our market as president of our committee for the last few years and will continue for a few more months before retiring from this position. A huge thank you to Ian and Leone. Luckily though we are not going to miss out on macadamia nuts though because on Wednesday, March 31, we welcome Rainforest Foods. Owned by Anthony Hotson who has been growing a range of native foods including macadamia nuts since 1996. We are thrilled that Rainforest Foods will bring to our market natural macadamia kernels, chocolate coated

macas, dry roasted salted kernels and honey roasted as well as macadamia nut spread including mac-cao (maca spread with raw organic cacao), macadamia oil and much more. A dollop of natural macadamia spread is a healthy, nutritious and dairy free addition to any smoothie! Anthony believes that good food should be natural, authentic and sustainably grown so we it is wonderful to know that he relies on organic inputs and beneficial insect releases to control most crop pests on his farm. Anthony says that, “should we need to use non-organic chemicals to save our crop, we always test our macadamia kernels for any chemical residue and have never found any chemical traces. As we do not like to use non-organic inputs, it is an absolute last resort.” “Each season”, Anthony said: “They release parasitoid wasps and lacewing monitors in huge numbers each season throughout the orchard. We enhance habitats for predatory insects where possible around the orchard.” “We also make between 700m3 and 1,200m3 of compost on-farm each year to apply in the orchard and have been steadily building up the soil for 15-plus years, with great results in tree health and production”.

So, from next week, you will find macadamia nuts in the regular spot where you always found Ian, next to Spice Palace.

AND THERE’S MORE ...

Next week we welcome a world’s first Dahl Bar Mix at our new stall, Thanks Dhal. This bar mix contains roasted chickpeas and a seed and spice mix so that people can create their own dahlicious bars at home. Owned by Joel and Laura, Joel said that he and Laura came up with the idea of this bar “one lazy Saturday afternoon when they were sharing a chocolate chip brownie and discussing how they could make dahl more exciting.” Laura suggested creating a muesli bar mix and hundreds of experiments later, the Dahl Bar Mix was born and launched in November 2020. The journey so far has been a team effort where Joel creates the recipes, Laura does the funky graphics and branding, and their cavoodle Rafi acts as chief taste tester for all the Dahl Bar experiments. As Joel said: “their goal with is to help you create your own bars unlike anything you’ve ever tasted, bars that you can be proud to share with family, friends, yoga buddies, book

Shepard avocados are a very elegant elongated avocado with a buttery nutty flavour. Simply delightful and one of my absolute favourites. Shepard’s have a firmer, yellower flesh which makes them ideal for slicing and they don’t brown when cut, making them a delicious and attractive addition to salads or sliced on toast.

Love and farewells at Pottsville General Store

By Jo Kennett IT WAS an emotional day, as the much-loved owners of the Pottsville General Store, Rick and Donna Moore, finished up work on Sunday, March 21, before handing over to new owners. Donna said it was the end of their second lease on the store, including one from 1993 to 2001. “We loved it, it was the only general store in Pottsville and we sold everything from hot chooks to bait,” Donna said. “We went on to buy another fruit and veggie shop in Ocean Shores, and then we sold wholesale fruit and veg for five years. “Then we were going to retire, but our first week out of the business, the previous store owners asked if we wanted to buy the lease back.” Donna said they agreed to take the store on for another five years. “I said to Rick, ‘you are either going to take me back to that shop to finish me off or let me retire’,” she said. “I need to recharge and I want to reconnect with my family; I can’t wait to do the nanna stuff. “Rick is going back wholesaling and our son Jason is working at Kingy surf club; that’s what made me want to sell because he was a great support while he was in the shop, but he has to follow his dreams.” Donna said they had reconnected with many old friends at the store and made many new friends. “We’ve lived here for 31 years and so I don’t look at people as customers; they are your friends,” she said. “From our time in the general store when our children were young, I’ve watched all the children that grew up

TOP PRINCIPAL: Paul Taylor is kicking goals

Award-winning principal By Megan Albany DESPITE THE fact Banora Point Public School Principal Paul Taylor has recently been recognised by the Commonwealth Bank Teaching Awards, he believes all educators, including himself, have a lot to learn. Mr Taylor, who was one of only four NSW public school teachers selected for the award, which recognises inspiring leadership and commitment to students, was chosen for his passion for professional learning. Having spent most of his career committed to improving teachers’ practice through professional learning, Mr Taylor said he is motivated by his own commitment to ongoing learning and that he wanted to inspire others to expand their teaching toolkit. As part of this commitment, Mr Taylor has made it his mission to bring international educational leaders to NSW, to meet local teachers face-to-face in a series of conferences intended to inspire positive changes in teaching techniques. The conferences, iOnTheFuture events, include practical masterclasses which allow Australian educators to learn directly from pioneers and experts, and to explore how they might utilise these new techniques in their own classrooms. Mr Taylor believes the use of these evidence-based approaches has been one of the factors in helping his team to improve Banora Point students’ reading age from well below the state average, to significantly exceeding it. As part of the award, Mr Taylor will receive a $45,000 fellowship, including $25,000 for a strategic project at the Banora Point Public school, which he plans to use for a new project to help develop connectedness, belonging, equity and voice throughout the school’s classrooms. “We want all of our children to feel they matter and have something to contribute,” he said. Mr Taylor said he was accepting the award on behalf of the whole team of educators at Banora Point Public School.

END OF AN ERA: Rick and Donna Moore (front) handing the Pottsville General Store reins over to Bec and Joel Christie and Konnie Ambatzidis

with my kids and now we’re watching their kids walk in the door. “I love them all and Rick, Jason and I will all miss them dearly.” Donna said the response to their leaving had been “overwhelming”. “I’ve had tears at the counter and people saying, ‘no, you can’t go’,” Donna said. “There’s one little three-year-old boy named Patrick that comes in nearly every morning and his mum said, ‘Donna is leaving the store, but we will still see her in the street’ and he said, ‘I think that’s going to make me very sad’. “Bec and Joel and Konnie are taking over, and Rick and I are confident that we are leaving it in good hands and people will get the same friendly service, because Bec and Konnie are just bubbly and beautiful, and all the staff are staying on.” Donna said without her husband’s years of experience and his knowledge of fruit and vegetables, she “couldn’t have done this.”

“He is the backbone of the fruit and veg section; he works seven days a week and doesn’t stop,” she said. “It’s his passion. I love him and I’m very proud of him.” Bec Christie said she grew up in Billinudgel and Joel was from Byron Bay. “We’ve been in Cabarita for nine months, but Joel has been playing footy with the Tweed Coast Raiders for nearly five years now,” Bec said. “We have been wanting to move up for a few years and when COVID hit it just forced our hand and we feel so happy and very lucky. “Everything in the store will stay the same, Rick will still provide us with fresh fruit and veg and the staff are still staying; we can’t survive without them, they are amazing. “This is new for both of us, my husband’s an electrician and he has always had his own business, but I’m throwing myself in the deep end, so it’s sink or swim.

THE TRUFFLE HUNTERS

In recent times documentary making is increasingly turning from a dry, factual representation of events into an art form, with sophisticated aesthetic choices and poetic narratives – a good example of this being the wonderful Honeyland. Another award-winning documentary that looks almost like a series of art tableaus, beautifully composed and lit, depicts another old traditional activity that requires complete dedication: truffle hunting. The Truffle Hunters is about a small group of eccentric people who live in northern Italy. Truffles are greatly appreciated by gourmets worldwide, but are becoming increasingly rare and incredibly expensive. They cannot be farmed, and the only people still able to ﬁnd them in the wild are these few old and weird men who have spent all their life perfecting the art of truffle hunting. They are not particularly nice individuals: competitive, jealous, very stingy with their knowledge – refusing to train any apprentice or reveal where they ﬁnd their truffles, and often hunting at night so their rivals cannot see where they go. Their only saving grace is the relationship with the only partner they have: their dogs. Dogs are

the real experts in ﬁnding truffles, without them there is no hunt. And so these grumpy old men, antisocial and oblivious to emotional demands from family, friends or business partners, become different people when interacting with their dogs, showing a tenderness, love and dedication that is quite touching. One of the men, Aurelio, behaves with his dog pal Birba as if she were actually his daughter. In one of the ﬁlm’s sweetest scenes, sitting in front of Birba around a kitchen table, Aurelio shares with her both his food and his greatest fears for the future: Who is going to take care of Birba after he dies? And so the dogs - Birba, Fiona, Titina, Ettore and others — become the real stars of The Truffle Hunters. Some of the most brilliant sequences show what the dogs see, by mounting a camera just above their muzzle. The underbrush rushes by, and suddenly we see a patch of dirt and frantically digging paws. A human hand snatches the thing we were chasing as soon as we have found it, and off we go again. The hunt seen from the point of view of a dog is almost dizzying, and refreshing: it is good to see the world from the perspective of a different creature for a change..!

Tweed youth represents at Parliament House By Megan Albany MURWILLUMBAH RESIDENT Rosie Stewart-Walker was recently the only young person to attend a national conference on the lawns of Parliament House to discuss issues such as the rights of First Nations people, climate change and gender equity. Ms Stewart-Walker, who is only 12 years old, sat alongside leaders from communities across Australia at the conference, which she attended to represent local youth. “I was there to tell the politicians that children and young people aren’t feeling very hopeful about the future,” Ms StewartWalker said. “I wanted them to know that as young people we need to see the adults around us doing small and big things in response to climate change.

“We also need to hear more good news stories.” The Mount Saint Patrick Primary School student, who is the daughter of Carmen Stewart, the Project Activator for It Takes A Town, said attending ChangeFest On The Hill made her feel more hopeful. “I got to talk to our MP Justine Elliott and other MPs such as Tanya Plibersek,” she said. “They were interested in what I had to say, which made me feel more hopeful about the future. “As a young person I need feedback that I am being heard and my concerns are taken seriously. I had that experience in Canberra.” ChangeFest on the Hill is an extension of the 2484 Reset Workshop, which brought together 80 local residents and leaders in September 2020 to explore what a thriving local area could look like in the future.

Local Markets Guide

By Rachael Lebeter ARE YOU interested in Australian wildlife? You’d be amazed by the animals that live in your own backyard, even in urban areas of the Tweed Shire. From bandicoots to microbats, and coastal carpet pythons to corellas, our region is home to many native species. Having a cup of tea and watching the yard is a great way to get to know the local wildlife. You will be amazed how quickly you learn to tell apart your resident magpies or kookaburras. The birds all have interesting personalities and you can learn a lot from watching them. If you sit outside at different times of the day, you will see an even greater range of birds and other native animals. Habitat loss is one of the greatest threats to Australian native animals. But many species are learning to live with humans, surviving and thriving in more urban areas. You can support local wildlife and help reduce the impacts of habitat loss by making your backyard wildlife friendly. Having a wildlife-friendly backyard will encourage more native animals to call your local area home. As well as being wonderful to watch, native species are also beneficial to have around. They eat garden pests and insects, like pesky mosquitoes. Native species also fertilise and aerate the soil, pollinate plants and spread seeds. They are very important to the survival of the native plant species that make up our local eucalypt and rainforests.

There are many ways to make your backyard wildlife friendly. Cats and dogs are often a threat to wildlife. Even a dog that wouldn’t hurt a fly seems like a predator to a bird or bandicoot. Keeping dogs and cats indoors at night protects native wildlife, especially nocturnal marsupials such as possums, bandicoots and antechinus. It is also important to keep pets away from any food or water sources for native animals, such as bird baths or ponds. Never allow pets to chase or harass wildlife. Providing water is another great way to encourage wildlife in your backyard. There is nothing nicer than watching a family of rosellas frolicking in the bird bath. Bird baths tend to be more popular with local birds when they are in a sheltered location, with plenty of nearby trees and bushes. Make sure no local cats can attack the birds there. Bird baths can spread disease between birds if not cleaned regularly. Clean your bird bath with soap, rinsing well, at least once a week. Water should always be clean and fresh. Shallow dishes with rocks can be placed on the ground, where pets aren’t a threat, for lizards and amphibians. There are plenty of other ways to make your yard, garden or even your local park wildlife friendly. Look out for our next article about Living with Wildlife. Call Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers’ 24hour Wildlife Rescue Hotline on (02) 6672 4789 for all sick, injured or orphaned wildlife. Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers rescues animals from Tweed Heads to Mooball, and inland to Mount Burrell. Please put our hotline number: (02) 6672 4789, in your phone today. And ask your friends and family to do the same.

where the perpetrator initially glorifies his deed, but soon realises the enormity of the situation and long-standing consequences of his act. 5. How can people best support your music? That is such a great question. The biggest support is to listen to an artist’s music and subscribe to their mailing list, so you hear about what they have coming up in terms of releases or gigs. Secondly, follow their social media and share posts that you like amongst your networks. Thirdly, go and see them play live and if you have some spare cash, buy some merch. Those steps all support any artist. The Regent’s licensed bar and kitchen will be open for the event. Entry is $20 for adults and concessions with children $10.

The next most popular beach was Cudgen headland (17,502), followed by North Kingscliff (14,178). Lifeguards performed 19,032 preventative actions and conducted 19,693 public interactions, such as providing advice, information and assisting members of the public. Ultimately, these increased efforts are reflected in the decrease in first aids performed of around 158, compared to 429 the previous year, as well as rescues, 21, down from 35 the year prior. Salt recorded the highest number of first aids, with 40 cases, while North Kingscliff recorded one case of a person requiring first aid. Pottsville attracted the most cases of law enforcement, with 112 cases, while Cabarita recorded 37 cases of police attendance required. “Lifeguards noticed a large increase in the number of residents using the stretch of beach between Salt and Cabarita where the new housing estates have been completed,” Council’s report reads. “It is expected that this will get busier in the future due to the numerous beach entry points, as well as the completion of the new hospital and other developments.”

SUN 28 MAR Birth Time: The Documentary

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE beaches have recorded only a small drop of around 16,500 beach goers in the summer months, according to the latest Surf Life Saving Services Summer Report. The drop was due in part to the COVIDrelated border closures and wet weather, with Tweed Shire Councillors receiving the 2020-2021 report during their monthly meeting on Thursday, March 18. The report found beach visitors across the Tweed Coast at 131,320 visitors, with a slight decrease from the 147,839 recorded over summer 2019-20. “This may be a result of the abovementioned weather patterns, which resulted in 125 hours of beach closures due to dangerous surf,” Council’s report read. “Border restrictions may have also played a role in affecting the tourism numbers in the area.” Popular surf spot Duranbah was the most popular beach across the summer, with a total of 24,711 visitors, despite the beach experiencing “mass erosion at the beginning of the month due to the heavy rainfall and large swell”.

By Nick Hanlon HAILING FROM the local heartlands comes Murwillumbah born and bred, 21-year-old Ollie Twohill. Ollie creates upbeat, radio-friendly altrock-pop and is fast gaining a reputation for his energetic solo shows, utilising guitars, high hats, stomp boxes and electropop loop pedals. Ollie epitomises real grit and talent – nononsense solid riffs and ear-worm melodies. I asked him some questions before his single launch at the Regent. 1. What are your earliest memories of music? My parents said I could sing before I could talk, I grew up in a house that listened to lots of music, particularly on road trips. The first song that grabbed my attention and inspired me to want to be a musician was hearing Jet’s “Are You Gonna Be My Girl” at the age of three. I really loved them and their debut album. 2. What are your biggest musical influences? It always comes back to guitar-based melodic tunes. Musicians like John Butler, John Mayer, who write great lyrics along with their sounds. Also pop-punk bands like Green Day, Foo Fighters, Nirvana and older stuff from the Easybeats and AC/DC. 3. Stone Cold Killer looks at a man whose idolisation of violence leads to serious consequences, what is the message of this song in your own words? The underlying message of the song is the adverse legacy and consequences of making bad decisions in the heat of the moment. Decisions that affect not only you as an individual, but your family and friends, along with the victims of violence. In this song, an innocent bystander confronts a criminal during a robbery, which leads to her death. All because of a split-second decision which ruins many lives. It is something this man must live with for the rest of his life. The video, directed by Trevor Worden, takes the message to another level,

Olda is fighting fit, turning 100 and still driving Tweed City water leaks By Jonathon Howard IN MANY ways, Banora Point resident Olda Gavioli, who will celebrate her 100th birthday on Tuesday, March 30, feels like she was one of the lucky ones throughout her life. Olda was 17, when she was lucky enough to leave Italy and Europe behind prior to World War II and start a new life in Australia in 1936. She was born in a small town near Venice, but her family saw trouble on the horizon for their home, as infamous dictator and fascist Mussolini tightened his grip on power and struck deals with Hitler. Instead of enduring another war, Olda’s family, including her sister and three brothers, sailed to the shores of Australia, where her father was waiting to settle them in Griffith, NSW. Olda said she’s enjoyed a wonderful life after she met her husband Antenore and they went up to Cairns to work as cane cutters for ten years and raised a family. Further proof of Olda’s luck has been her long life, as her sister and three brothers all died before they were 80 years of age, and her mother died at 67. “I didn’t do anything else different to others, I was just lucky,” she said. Olda has always kept to a routine and makes sure she goes to bingo at the South Tweed Sports Club and keeps her family close. She is still driving and is considered a “good driver” by her daughter Bianca Rowcroft and her older sister who lives in Cairns. Olda has two grandchildren, four greatgrandchildren and seven great-great -grandchildren, aged from 13 years old to a one-year-old.

HAPPY 100TH: Olda Gavioli is celebrating 100 years and she’s still going strong

“I mostly love the freedom in Australia to eat whatever I liked. What Australia gave us was a life,” she said. “Antenore was a great husband and we were married for 53 years.” Bianca spoke highly of her mother’s abilities at almost 100 and praised her hardworking approach in life. “She’s worked her whole life and always been healthy and enjoyed what Australia had to offer in life,” Bianca said.

“Worked at the age of 12 years old in a silk factory in Italy in a town near Venice, so she was an early starter. “And she’s still with it. And still driving. She says keeping active has been her secret to a healthy life. The bingo helps as well. “I think that being healthy and seems to be the secret.”

By Jo Kennett THERE WERE brief concerns last week, as water entered several Tweed City Shopping Centre businesses through the ceiling, causing damage to stock and triggering some businesses to temporarily close. BIG W was one of the shops forced to temporarily shut its doors to clean up and ensure the area was safe for shoppers before reopening. “At BIG W, the safety of our team and customers is our top priority during this period of heavy rainfall,” a BIG W spokesperson told The Weekly. “Since reopening the store on Sunday, March 21, additional safety measures have been put in place including safety barriers and signage near affected areas, as well as additional cleaning throughout the day. “All water-affected stock that couldn’t be resold has been donated to Lifeline.” The owner of the Ginger Root Cafe Vojtek Bozio said they had been “very lucky” after part of the ceiling was damaged by water. “All our equipment is undamaged and we can still operate,” Mr Bozio said. “Centre management helped us with all the cleaning and fixed our ceilings to keep our cafe safe. “It still does not look perfect, but at least we can be open and we know that our regular customers understand that and still support us. “In the last few years, the climate has been continuously changing; that’s why we have heavy rains much more often causing flooding. “We should all together think more seriously about the environment.” One local, who did not want to be named, said he had lived in the area for 30 years and witnessed a lot of rain events. “Tweed City Centre Management are onto it very quickly and with the help of the security staff and the cleaning team, they seem to be able to control the situation,” he said, “I feel they need to address the water issues that are being caused by damage to the roof structure, for the safety of everyone, and the longevity of the centre.” The Weekly contacted both Lendlease and Tweed City management for comment, but they were unable to respond prior to the print deadline.

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.

Holding Shot with Judy Tuckey ZONE ONE North Area Singles Championships certainly presented with a mixed bag of topsy turvy scoring throughout the Opens preliminaries with early big winners getting thumped as the competition rounds progressed. Open Quarter finals saw Paul Earl (Pottsville) def. Greg Goode (Cabarita); Kris Lehfeldt (Pottsville) def. Jason Clarke (Cabarita); Troy Makin (Ocean Shores) def. Justin Jones (Ocean Shores) and Paul Watson (Kingscliff) def. Tony Collier (Pottsville). The Earl Vs. Lehfeldt semi resulted in Lehfeldt asserting his authority on

the greens to hold Earl at bay and take the game with a comfy margin. Makin and Watson toughed out a hard contest in Semi Two with Watson eventually taking full control after 15 ends, and holding on well, also claimed a finals berth. Senior Championship Singles definitely appeared to present with a greater volume of top quality bowls for spectators to enjoy as tight scoring eventuated across all games. Quarter finals, all closely contested, resulted in Steve Massey (Kingscliff) def. Ken Coyte (Cabarita) ; Graeme Condie (Ocean Shores) def. Peter Gilchrist (Kingscliff); John Turner (Cabarita) def. Gary Goodwin

Death Notice

My life’s been full, I savored much, Good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch. Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your hearts, and peace to thee. God wanted me now, He set me free

Well done Sharon and Margaret. Semi One resulted in Mike Mills trailing David Sheather early in the game and being restricted in bridging the gap as the duel continued. Semi Two saw John O’Connor open the card and, playing strongly, kept John Watson at bay to take the game with a reasonable margin. Zone 1 Singles finals are scheduled to be conducted late June in the West Area. Details will be forthcoming in due course, following the completion of the 2021 pennant season.

Can’t find a house to buy? Build your own By Jo Kennett WHILE COASTAL properties are getting snapped up almost faster than you can pick up the phone to make an enquiry, there are still plenty of good building blocks for sale in rural areas, and if you rush, you could just catch the tail end of the HomeBuilder scheme. Licensee of Raine and Horne Murwillumbah and licensed Real Estate Stock and Station Agent Jason Dittmar says that building your own home provides the opportunity to have exactly the type of property you want. “Sometimes getting the land and the house you want is difficult,” he told The Weekly. “A lot of people can’t envisage the process of building; they think it’s too daunting. “It takes more effort, but the end result is that you can get the block of land you like and the house you want.” Jason, who has been in the area for over 40 years, says it’s much easier to check out the reputation of builders these days as well. “The reputation of builders can be found out by using the internet,” he said. “Nearly all good businesses have testimonials online. “Going through the contract details and seeing what’s included or not included

and talking to the builder is important. “There are lots of different building companies and plenty of good small building businesses as well; go and have a look at their work.” Jason has been marketing two new estates, Hundred Hills at Murwillumbah and Panorama Tweed Valley at Kunghur. “The blocks at Hundred Hills that have sold so far have gone to first-home buyers, retirees, families; it’s quite a mixture,” he said. “They are being sold by Open Negotiation, which is a similar concept to Ebay, but more userfriendly and designed to be more transparent. “You can see what other bidders are bidding and at the end of the day if the highest bidder passes the reserve, they will get the property. “We are getting around two to five bidders on each property and if it hasn’t sold at auction, we negotiate with the highest bidder. “There are also a number of people placing orders outside of that which have been accepted outright and we still have 25 blocks for sale there. “The market is very, very strong and it’s probably the best land release on the Far North Coast because we have around 28

near flat blocks which builders like so they sell quickly.” Jason says Panorama Tweed Valley at Kunghur has been on the market since the start of the year. “They are small acreage blocks, ranging from one acre to 15 acres,” he said.

“For the HomeBuilder scheme, you need to have a contract for the land and a building contract by the end of March,” he said. “The time frame is getting pretty narrow, but we can have a block of land exchanged in a day and then they can get their building contract, so it’s still possible.”

“There are still 20 lots available.” With the HomeBuilder scheme and the federal government’s $15,000 cash back for new homes and renovations due to end on March 31, Jason says there is still just enough time to get in on the scheme.
