Councillors continue to share vision and concerns for 2019 my involvement with the Chambers of Commerce.” Cr Owen also expressed his concerns within the shire including what he said was the “undemocratic process in the Council chambers”. “A Council chamber is supposed to be a place where issues big and small are debated and determined for the good of the community - not a place where party politics and personal agendas come first. “We need to get more common sense in council decision making so I will continue to strive to restore democracy to the council chamber decision making process and persuade some of my colleagues to put aside party politics and ideological agendas and make decisions for the good of the community. “The continued waste of ratepayers money on Tweed Valley Hospital politics by the Greens and Labor - it’s an embarrassment and a serious drain on council coffers and resources. “The propensity of four of my councillor colleagues to send unwinnable cases to the Land and Environment Court.” Cr Owen also said he was mindful that councillors have only 18 months remaining before the next Council elections. “When I put my hand up in the mayoral election last year, I was overwhelmed by the support I received,” Cr Owen said. “People contacted me, and continue to do so, to say that we need change and must restore professionalism, strong leadership and democracy to the Council chamber. “The next council election is only 18 months away and as I go through this year I will have one eye firmly on that with a view to delivering the change that makes a positive difference to the lives of the people of the Tweed.”
Pottsville crime wave angering residents THE CRIME wave that has angered residents in Pottsville’s Seabreeze Estate is continuing, with several cars ransacked, attempted break-ins of homes and one car stolen on Sunday, January 13. A car was ransacked in Bonville Street on Saturday, January 12 with no damage or anything stolen, and a car was ransacked in Camden Court on the same night. There was an attempted break-in of a home on Thursday January 10. A car was stolen on Sunday night, January 13 from Nambucca Street, Pottsville. Tweed Byron Police District Acting Inspector Leanne Edmonds told The
Weekly that police were aware of the “ongoing issue”. “There have been people involved with stealing from motor vehicles and motor vehicle theft,” Acting Insp Edmonds said. “I believe there have also been issues with attempted home break-ins. “We are certainly encouraging people to make sure their property is properly secured and both vehicles and homes are locked.” Acting Insp Edmonds said there were a lot of people suggesting leaving vehicles unlocked to avoid them being damaged in an attempted break-in. “If people do that they are just making themselves an easy target,” she said.

ANOTHER TWO Tweed Shire Councillors have this week shared their concerns and priorities for the year ahead. This week we catch up with Mayor Katie Milne and Councillor James Owen, who shared some of their passionate views about the Tweed Shire. The Weekly has contacted each of the seven councillors to get their views on the year ahead with 18 months to the next council elections. Mayor Milne said her priorities for 2019 are to improve the Tweed Shire’s green credentials including plans to roll out solar panels across Tweed Shire Council buildings. “Global war ming is the most challenging priority we face at this time,” she said. “Council will this year roll out more than $5 million for 20 different energy efficiency and solar projects and will review the feasibility of expanding the program to battery storage. “The solar panels will be rolled out as fast as our energy projects officer can develop the business cases and get the panels installed.” Mayor Milne said Council’s solar plan will be aimed at reducing its greenhouse gas emissions and rising electricity costs. “Heatwaves are the greatest killer of all natural disasters so providing shade to keep the Shire cool will be extremely important,” she said. “Council will be bringing forward a program to Green the Shire that I called for last year. “Greening our commercial areas also has significant proven economic benefits for business. “The importance of healthy waterways was reinforced recently with the devastating news of fish dying in the millions on the Menindee Lakes.”
Mayor Milne said only about four per cent of Council’s annual budget is spent on natural resource management. “I have called for a report to increase this allocation in next budget increasing the allocation from four per cent to five per cent, so we can accelerate the revegetation of our riverbanks and forests, and hopefully save our precious koalas and other numerous threatened wildlife,” she said. Mayor Milne said the main streets of Tweed Heads and South Tweed are “glaring examples” of areas that need more trees planted. “But all the high trafficked areas need shade and the parks and playgrounds should have good canopy cover,” she said. Mayor Milne said the housing crisis is “very real and distressing but largely beyond Council’s capacity to address”. “The State Government social housing provision in Tweed is only 2.8 per cent compared to the NSW average of four per cent,” she said. “Tweed has been sorely let down in this regard by the State and Federal Governments and I will continue to fight for a better deal for our community in 2019.” Councillor James Owen shared a range of areas in his sights this year. “I want to ensure the raising of the Clarrie Hall dam continues unabated so that we secure our water supply into the future,” he said. “That construction of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail commences to ensure it’s up and running by the end of 2020. “I’d like to see growth in tourism in Tweed this year now that the Tweed Tourism Company is established and has had the opportunity to engage with the operators and the community. “The commencement of the new Tweed Valley Hospital. “My continued support for business within the Tweed through advocacy and

Tiny homes is a great idea
As a mother who found herself homeless with three kids after a marriage breakdown, I am 100 per cent in support of a tiny house movement in the Tweed Shire. The benefits to the residents far outweighs the inconvenience or minimal undesirables it may attract. I lived in a tent for three months with my children before saving enough to buy a bus to retrofit as a more long-term solution until I got back into the housing market. To offer people the option of such low cost accommodation (and the hope of building a small home of their own in the future and having housing security) will and can only be an improvement to the lives of vulnerable members of our community. This would be a dream come true to see the Tweed Shire support this. Teila Rose Bradbury, Murwillumbah I think that Councillor Ron Cooper’s idea for a tiny home village is an excellent one. I remember watching a documentary in which a council in one of Sydney’s suburbs provided a three-storey block of very small units for homeless people. This venture was highly successful and I think that one of the main reasons was that the residents were vetted concerning their behaviour. It seems to me that with developers putting money first and a general lack of interest from the government regarding this problem that if anything is to improve then it will be as a result of the local council coming up with some innovative and successful ideas. Thanks Ron for your vision and dedication to the growing ranks of our homeless people. PS: I agree with Warren’s view that political candidates should be chosen on merit rather than having gender quotas. However there are huge gender imbalances in some parties and I wonder why

Well Cr Ron Cooper has hit another nail on the head. I am beginning to think he is the only elected councillor who cares. Only one catch is a lack of public transport other than school buses, when school is off so are the buses. We have a council that wants to appear to be assisting the homeless, but there is two buildings in the park namely the rotunda and the toilet block. Instead of knocking them down, how about for a little money convert them into spots the homeless can take refuge from inclement weather? The tourists can then see we have a council that recycles old charming useful flood free buildings (not like the expensive new loos) instead of bulldozing? Brian Ashworth, The Tweed Tenancy Group
Government needs due process
The NSW government swept into power in 2011 including on a promise they would rid part 3A from the NSW Environment Planning & Assessment Act and give planning powers back to local communities. However, while Part 3A may have been removed the government have subsequently set up the Act that is now much worse than the Part 3A and decision making far removed from local communities. Further, the Act has been short circuited with loopholes that allows no transparency, secrecy and selfdetermination with no oversight or independent scrutiny. Emails reveal the government deliberately chose the path on its $2.2b splurge on the Sydney Stadium development that allowed it to escape independent scrutiny and be self-determined. It appears the government has chosen much the same path in its quest to relocate the Tweed Hospital to the Cudgen State Significant Farmland and will be with no independent scrutiny. Under the loopholes set up, that a government agency can plough ahead under self-determination and no independent approval process or scrutiny with the destruction of wetland protection and critically endangered species/habitat areas is abhorrent. The government’s State Significant Developments are controlled by itself and its ignoring of warnings on the lack of process/standards we are now witnessing the Opal
Tower disaster with a whistle-blower warning we are facing a potential future of buildings and major infrastructure collapses. The government turned a blind eye to the theft of water from the Murray Darling River system and the corruption over the management of our water resources and what a disaster this river system, regional communities and the environment are now left to face. For more than two decades political allies of the government have sought to have the protected Cudgen far mlands re-zoned for development. Since 1999 all development proposals have been rejected by both State and Local governments due to the farmland protections in place. That the government has refused to release the full hospital site selection reports undertaken by external consultants leaves no doubt the Cudgen site is not the only feasible site, and the Cudgen site is simply to serve its political allies to open up the Cudgen Plateau for development. Nor has it released its Criteria Plan and information now indicates the Cudgen site was indeed pre-determined. It is to be hoped as we enter a new year the government can heed the disasters now unravelling and proper governance and due process over The Tweed Hospital will prevail and the Cudgen State Significant Farmlands will be preserved into the future as lawfully regulated. Lindy Smith, Tweed Heads
What time and what budget
The aspiring, wanna-be next Labor party member for the Tweed, Craig Elliot, shows a lack of understanding of the planning process if he thinks a new hospital can be built on the Kings Forest site ‘on time and on budget’. The question needs to be asked: ‘On what time and on what budget?’ The planning for the new hospital on the chosen site at Cudgen, not forgetting the owners wished to sell, presumably because it is not top quality soil, has been in train for 18 months with over 50 persons employed or consulted on the process as well as other specialists. It is right now only up to the EIS for the first stage of the project. Due process cannot be circumvented. Further more all services are available at this site. The Kings Forest site does not have all services available at this time and could take a very long time to get approvals and be put in place. There could eventually be eight to ten thousand people living there so is this where one would want to have a hospital which operates round the
clock 24/7, plum in the middle of all that housing? I don’t think so. Why does Craig Elliot think it has taken years and years to get any approvals to do anything at all at the Kings Forest site? The answer is because it is more than likely there is endangered species and certainly critical koala habitat which must be protected. Sounds simple but it is a fact. Before Leda owned Kings Forest, it was always a contentious issue for residential subdivision even to making the decision on what was the best entrance to the site off Tweed Coast Rd. This was problematic and these issues will continue to be so. There could be Tweed residents who will die before any new hospital is built if Labor has its way and halts the present process. Barbara Nowland (former Tweed Shire Councillor) Hastings Point
Tradies work both ways
In reply to Jeremy Conford’s,letter (TVW, Jan 10) “where’s jobs bonanza?”, Mr Conford complained about the number of registered construction vehicles on site for new Tweed Valley Hospital are from Queensland. Would you like to take note of the number of NSW registered tradies working on the Gold Coast and travelling on the M1 to work in Brisbane daily. Did Queensland and Western Australia ever whinge about fly in and fly out workers in their mines. This is Australia not a country called New South Wales. It works both ways. Mary Ellis, Coolangatta
Hospital EIS: “Elaborate and Intentional Sophistry”
As Sir Humphrey Appleby might say, it was a very ‘courageous’ move by the Department of Industry (DOI) to contradict the Department of Planning in its submission on the Tweed Valley Hospital EIS. In saying “if approved, the proposal sets a precedent for development on a highly important agricultural resource that both the government and community have indicated should be kept for agricultural purposes now and into the future” the DOI is stating the obvious concern, that if it is done once it can be done again and again, given the number of categories that allow Planning Ministers to declare projects SSD and bypass the normal planning processes and checks. ‘ C o u r ag e o u s ’ b e c a u s e t h e Department of Planning has been forced to undergo an internal investigation into its own dysfunction which has seen legitimate voices of dissent or concern within its own

corridors, silenced in no uncertain terms. But the Department of Industry is not alone in its dismal evaluation of the project. Gold Coast Airport bemoaned the lack of consultation, apart from a few phone calls asking for reference material, on a project that is directly under the approach flight path, where huge cranes will be a part of the skyscape for several years and where emergency h e l i c o p t e r m ov e m e n t s w i l l necessarily be a part of the airport’s operational procedures. An actual assessment of the project against relevant prescribed airspace surfaces was not provided. TAFE NSW commissioned an independent assessor to prepare its submission on traffic impacts which found that the EIS was inadequate in its determination of traffic flows, actual driver behaviour, potential conflict with car parking at the TAFE complex, contradictory findings/results, vague assessments of future impacts/ needs and problems of queueing on traffic movement in and around the hospital. No mention was made of the ludicrous proposal to add an exit from the hospital at the small Turnock Street roundabout next to the pool. Tweed Shire Council also weighed in with its concerns that have been on the table now for several months with questions that still remain unanswered. All this while the limited amount of work done on site was stopped because of intrusions into the protected environmental zone. In the lead up to this we were given calming assurances that the hospital design would make use of the sloping site and therefore be less intrusive. On the contrary, whoever is responsible now (is anyone responsible?) has rejected two models that did make use of the slope in favour of a nine-storey mass sitting on the highest and flattest part of the 16 hectares, with models of like size buildings sitting alongside them as future prospects. The least sensitive and most disturbing of all possible options. Apart from the handful of submissions that ‘wholeheartedly’ supported the EIS amendments as if reading from the same prayer book, page and line, there is an overwhelming sense in the many, many others of distrust and dismay with the process and with current and future consequences of this development proposal.

Bupa Aged Care Pottsville working to fix non-compliance issues October 2018 relating to ‘Human resource management’ and ‘Living environment’,” the spokesperson said. “The issuing of a Notice of Noncompliance is a natural justice step, giving the provider an opportunity to respond to the Notice and establish a time frame for the provider to address and remedy the non-compliance. “There are no disruptions to the operation of an aged care service that has received a Notice of Noncompliance.” “Where there is continued noncompliance (this includes when a provider does not remedy the noncompliance within the specified period) or where there is an immediate and severe risk to the safety, health or well-being of care recipients, the department may impose sanctions.” A Bupa spokesperson said the company was working to rectify the situation. “In recent months, we’ve made several enhancements at Bupa Pottsville, including hiring an additional registered nurse and an additional 12 carers to support our residents,” the spokesperson said. “Further recruitment efforts are also underway. We have bolstered training for staff to further enhance their skills and ensure quality care and support are provided to our residents. “We have also conducted a review to ensure the care home is a safe and supportive environment for residents and we regularly consider

Traralgon, Eden, Seaforth and Woodend have been sanctioned with federal funding, which pays for approximately 72 per cent of aged care treatment, now cut and no new intakes allowed. According to the governments My Aged Care website (https://www. myagedcare.gov.au/complianceinformation) Bupa Aged Care Pottsville Beach is facing no current sanctions.
Southern Cross Care St Joseph’s Residential Aged Care at Tweed Heads South was also issued with a notice of non-compliance on October 23, 2018 for clinical care failings Quality Care Principles 2014 legislation. The non-compliance was on the legislation which required that, “Care recipients receive appropriate clinical care”. Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced a Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety in the wake of a Four Corners report on ABC which detailed shocking allegations of abuse and systematic failures in the industry and government regulatory bodies.

By Jo Kennett BUPA AGED Care Pottsville Beach says it is working to rectify issues which saw it become one of eight Bupa Aged Care homes found to be non-compliant on meeting legislated aged care standards according to the Australian Aged Care Quality Agency. Nine Bupa facilities in NSW, including four on the non-compliant list, have now been sanctioned meaning they will receive no further government funding and will not be able to accept new residents for six months. On October 29 last year Bupa Aged Care Pottsville Beach was issued with a notice of non-compliance on staffing and ‘environment’ grounds. The facility failed to meet the legislated standard for having ‘appropriately skilled and qualified staff sufficient to ensure that services are delivered in accordance with these standards and the residential care service’s philosophy and objectives’. The facility also failed to meet the required standards for providing the appropriate living environment for clients set out in the legislation which reads: “Management of the residential care service is actively working to provide a safe and comfortable environment consistent with care recipients’ care needs”. A s p o ke s p e r s o n fo r t h e Department of Health said there would be “absolutely no compromise on aged care quality and safety”. “Bupa Pottsville Beach was issued a Notice on Non-compliance on 29

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Rough end of Wollumbin Street to undergo roadworks By Jonathon Howard
People who commit a major drink driving offence must by law face a period on the interlock program after their licence disqualification time is over. An interlock is a breath testing device attached to the ignition system of a car that requires the driver to provide a breath sample. If the sample is not provided or if alcohol is detected, the vehicle will not start. The interlock device also requires the driver to provide breath samples at random intervals while driving. The interlock device records all breath test results and attempts to tamper with the device. To stop other people providing the breath sample in place of the driver, a photo is taken of the person providing the breath sample. Caitlin Drabble of Stacks Law Firm says that accidents involving drink drivers are particularly common during the holiday season, adding that she hopes knowing the penalties will persuade people not to drink and drive. “You can get a 12 month interlock order if you have had an alcohol related conviction for a major offence in the previous five years, even for the lowest range over the limit,” she said. “The interlock period rises to 24 months if you have a high range over the limit and also for a mid-range if you have an alcohol related driving conviction in the previous five years. “It goes up to 36 and even 48 months if you are convicted of killing or severely injuring someone while driving under the influence of alcohol. “ It can be expensive too. You will be responsible for all costs associated with the interlock program, such as the installation, monthly leasing, maintenance and removal fees. You will need an interlock licence, which is obtainable at your local motor registry. Offenders can’t drive a vehicle which does not have the interlock device installed and the interlock device has to be working. The court can grant exemptions, but they are limited and only given in exceptional circumstances. Failure to comply may result in a $2,200 fine, an extension of the interlock licence or a suspension of the interlock licence. “In our experience, for clients facing financial hardship, we often make a submission to the court on the day of sentencing that the compulsory interlock period comes at great expense to that individual and ask that the court consider leniency in the fine to be imposed.
Wollumbin Street is set for roadworks in 2019 but the concrete slab will remain
2019 and will take about four months to complete. “This will be a major project with traffic delays and/or traffic diversions most likely occurring,” Council’s spokesperson said. Meanwhile, road contractors have started a range of roadworks across the Tweed Shire including works at Doon Doon (Commissioners Creek), Bilambil Heights, Glengarrie and Terranora. Tweed Shire Council roadwork crews are also working on the new bridge at Byrrill Creek, with the old bridge washed away in the 2017 Tweed Flood.
Heatwave conditions expected across Tweed Shire TEMPERATURES ARE expected to soar across the Tweed Shire and NSW this week as the State Emergency Operations Controller is urging residents to monitor weather reports and follow health and safety advice. NSW Police Deputy Commissioner Jeff Loy said advice from the Bureau of Meteorology indicates temperatures are expected to increase over the coming days and into the weekend to above 40 degrees in some areas with the Tweed hovering around the mid 30s. “As the weather heats up, I cannot stress strongly enough to motorists that it’s not only an offence for children or pets to be left unattended in a vehicle, it can be deadly,” he said. “It can be just as dangerous to leave the elderly and disabled members of
the community in cars during days of extreme heat.” If you see pets, children or vulnerable people located in a car, phone Triple Zero (000) immediately. Deputy Commissioner Loy said one of the other main concerns is that the school holidays are only halfway through and there are thousands of tourists, campers, and other holidaymakers in unfamiliar environments. “We are urging everyone to take extra care, especially when swimming; whether at the beach, pools or in rivers,” Deputy Commissioner Loy said. “Every year thousands of people require rescuing from the surf, some needlessly drown. “Make sure you know who you are going to call (who may need help, and who could provide help to you if needed);

A spokesperson for Council said funds in the current financial year 2018 to 2019 construction programme have been allocated to upgrade Wollumbin Street between Nullum Street and Riverview Street, with works expected to start mid2019. “The project is still in the design phase and the exact scope still not finalised but will generally involve the replacement of the retaining wall on the northern side of the road between Nullum Street and Byangum Road,” a council spokesperson said. “The works will also include a pavement replacement with asphalt including a wearing surface of the concrete road (concrete road will remain).” The works will also include a new kerb and gutter along both sides of the road as well as some drainage upgrade works at the Nullum St intersection. Council will also relocate the Sewer Rising Main from within the road to underneath the southern side footpath. Council’s spokesperson said the works are expected to start in the middle of

A new Council campaign is drawing attention to the affordable and fun school holiday options waiting to be discovered in Murwillumbah.
School holiday fun in Murwillumbah The untapped potential of Murwillumbah as a school holiday destination is the focus of a new Council campaign to attract more visitors to the town. Five Council facilities feature in the promotion: Tweed Regional Aquatic Centre (TRAC) Murwillumbah, Tweed Regional Museum, the Knox Park adventure playground and skatepark and the brandnew Gallery DownTown. Senior Economic Development Officer – Business Facilitation Kym Kranen said Murwillumbah was the ideal place for families to explore, especially those seeking free and low-cost options that wouldn’t blow the budget. “While the shops and beaches on the coast are packed this summer, you can head just 20 minutes inland and relax with a great day out,” Ms Kranen said. “We’re targeting families on the Gold Coast and in the Byron Shire but also reminding Tweed locals that there’s plenty to do in Murwillumbah. “Murwillumbah is the creative and cultural hub of the Tweed Valley and it’s also the perfect place for a day trip with the whole family. “There’s scenic views of the river and Wollumbin / Mt Warning and you fill up on local food and culture in the town’s CBD,” she said.
Here’s just some of the things you and your family could do: • have fun on the giant waterslide at TRAC or cool off with the kids at the water play park (fees apply) • check out props from this summer’s blockbuster film, Aquaman at Tweed Regional Museum (free) • explore the brand new Gallery DownTown at the M-Arts Precinct, an annexe of the Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre (free) • play at the award-winning Knox Park adventure playground and skatepark (free). It’s best to explore Murwillumbah on foot and there’s plenty of parking available at the multi-storey car park at TRAC (access from Queen Street or Tumbulgum Road) or at Knox Park. Here’s where to head to: • TRAC – 6–8 Tumbulgum Road • Tweed Regional Museum – 2 Queensland Road • Gallery DownTown – corner Brisbane Street and Proudfoots Lane • Knox Park – 24 Brisbane Street For more information on these and other attractions visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/holidays or connect with Tweed Shire Council, TRAC, Tweed Regional Museum and Tweed Regional Gallery on social media.
Murwillumbah’s Knox Park has a new accessible amenities block, centrally located in the park and surrounded by attractive landscaping and linking pathways. And there’s much more to come. The amenities block is the first stage of the town’s new Art and Heritage Precinct. The overall Art and Heritage Precinct project will activate Knox Park, increasing visitation by locals and tourists alike, boosting economic activity in the Murwillumbah CBD and creating jobs for locals. It has been largely built with sustainable materials and with long-term sustainability in mind. The Art and Heritage Precinct project includes: • upgrades to Knox Park including the new toilet block, construction of an entry plaza, a new bus shelter and other works • the creation of the Caldera Wall at the Tweed Regional Museum which will focus on the region’s natural history • restoration of the Treasure of the Tweed public mural along Commercial Road • the development of a phone app consolidating all of the art and heritage information of Murwillumbah. As part of the project, the two existing dated toilet facilities in the park will be demolished. The Nullum Street facility has already been removed and the other will be demolished in the next stage (the plaza upgrade) which goes out for tender in March 2019. Council was awarded $887,000 in Restart NSW funding under the Regional Growth – Environment and Tourism Fund and is also contributing $617,000 to the overall project.
What’s been your experience as a customer of Tweed Shire Council? Two draft updated policies now on exhibition for public comment focus on what you can expect from Council and what Council expects from you. Following Council’s resolution of 12 December 2018, the Draft Customer Experience Standards Version 1.7 and Managing Unreasonable Customer Conduct Policy Version 1.3 are now on exhibition for public comment until close of business on Monday 4 February 2019. Here’s a snapshot of Council’s average customer interactions each month: 4,000 over the counter enquiries, 7,000 phone calls, 200,000 emails, 1,000 letters, 45,000 website sessions and 66 private and direct messages through social media, mostly Facebook. Executive Manager People, Communication and Governance, Suzanne Richmond said Council provided a wide range of customer experiences across more than 50 services.
“Our service culture applies to all departments who aim to provide quality customer experiences through a range of options to make it easier for you to do business with us,” Ms Richmond said. “Good customer experience involves two people – so these policies focus on what you can expect from us, and what we expect from you.” “While the service standards are not significantly different from what is adopted in Council’s existing customer policies, the documents layout and language has been improved – making it easier for you and our staff,” Ms Richmond said. Examples of the service standards in the Draft Customer Experience Standards Version 1.7 Policy include: answering 80 per cent of phone calls within one minute; returning missed calls within two business days and action, respond to or acknowledge 80 per cent of customer service requests within 10 business days. The Draft Managing Unreasonable Customer Conduct Policy
Living and Loving the Tweed
Version 1.3 outlines four types of customer conduct considered to be unreasonable: unreasonable persistence, unreasonable demands, unreasonable lack of cooperation and unreasonable behaviours. Once these draft policies are finalised and adopted they will replace the current policies including the Customer Service Charter (11 pages), Response to Correspondence Policy (six pages) and the Dealing with Difficult People Policy. For copies of the policies and more information, please visit the project page on Your Say Tweed www.yoursaytweed.com.au/ customerexperience Send your submissions to tsc@tweed.nsw.gov.au, by mail to: Customer Experience Framework, General Manager, Tweed Shire Council, PO Box 816, Murwillumbah NSW 2484 or through the project page on Your Say Tweed www.yoursaytweed.com.au/customerexperience

The Beach Stone-curlew chick at Hastings Point is growing up fast. Here’s a couple of photos taken recently by the dedicated group of volunteers who look out for the curlew family near Cudgera Creek. Thanks to BirdLife Australia, BirdLife Northern Rivers and Byron Beach Buddies. This photo was taken on 9 January – thanks to Kathy Wilk for taking the photo. And thanks to everyone who’s supported the birds by giving the curlew family lots of space over this busy period. There’s plenty of places you can take your dog in the Tweed, however this isn’t one of them as it’s a dog exclusion zone to protect this significant shorebird and beach nesting bird habitat and reduce disturbance.

Tweed Australia Day
Review of application determination
Two previous Tweed Australia Day award winners will officiate as ambassadors for Australia Day ceremonies, including the official awards ceremony on Saturday 26 January. Samuel Smith and Anthea Warne, who were both honoured at last year’s awards, will attend some community-based Australia Day events before attending the official awards ceremony, which starts at 11am (DST) at the Murwillumbah Civic Centre. Samuel has been recognised as The Young Achiever in Community Service Award for the past two years for organising fundraising Kids in Need School Days, as well as fundraising lunches and dinners with celebrities.

At just 16, Anthea represented Australia in surf lifesaving at the Commonwealth Life Saving Championships in South Africa and in canoeing at the Olympic Hopes International Regatta in the Czech Republic. Apart from The Young Achiever in Community Service and Sporting Achievement categories, this year awards will be presented for Arts and Culture, Community Event of the Year, and Volunteer of the Year.

Fears Bray Park Weir could overtop TWEED SHIRE Council has this week commenced controlled releases of water from Clarrie Hall Dam to ensure continued supply to the Tweed after the Bray Park Weir level has dropped up to 40mm further each day without rain. In a media statement, Council said the dam currently sits at 99 per cent capacity, but the weir water level is 230mm below the weir wall. The water release from the dam is designed to ensure continued supply to meet the demand for raw water at the Bray Park Water Treatment Plant. However, the water release will have little or no effect on a blue-green algal bloom which has currently affected the weir. Council’s media statement said some residents may detect an unpleasant musty or earthy smell and taste to the water but have assured residents “it is safe to drink”. “The smell will be most noticeable in hot water and confined spaces, such as the shower room, but remains well within the Australian Drinking Water Guidelines and poses no risk

to human health,” Council’s Manager of Water and Wastewater Anthony Burnham said . Anyone experiencing an unpleasant smell or taste to their drinking water is asked to contact Council on (02) 6670 2400 to assist Council to monitor the situation. The continuing hot dry weather also has resulted in insufficient river flows to hold back a potential saltwater tidal overtopping of the weir next week. Council said it will deploy the temporary concrete block barrier across the full width of the weir wall tomorrow (Friday, January 18) to protect against a predicted overtopping event on Tuesday and Wednesday next week, 22 and 23 January respectively. “The predicted tide is forecast to be higher than the current water level in the weir so we will barrier off the weir wall to prevent any salt water entering the weir and contaminating our raw water supply,” Mr Burnham said. “Once the risk passes, we will remove the temporary barrier, possibly by Friday next week.”

Make money while the sun shines
AUSTRALIA’S household electricity bills have doubled in the last five years, so it’s no secret that more and more Australians are making the switch to solar in a bid to drastically reduce their electricity bills. The latest Renewable Energy Index figures report more than 8,500 homes across Qld and NSW installed solar in the month of October delivering cumulative savings of $100 million dollars in power bill reduction over the next ten years. Isn’t it time you got on board? Right now, investing in solar delivers serious and immediate returns. SAE Group have yet another compelling offer that will make the switch easy for you. This high quality 6.6kW solar bundle comprised of the 5kW Solax X1 inverter, and 24 x 275watt Seraphim panels, for just $5,355. We understand it might seem complicated to get a real understanding of what your returns might be on a solar system, so let’s take a look at just how good the benefits are so you can make an informed decision. According to the Clean Energy Council the average hours of sunlight a day across the year is 4.2 hours, so we will use this as the base to calculate the solar generation. Based on 4.2 hours a day, a 6.6kW system will generate 28kW of clean energy every day. Now let’s say you self-consume 50%, or 14kW your total solar generation each day. Based on today’s average electricity charges of .28c/kW, by cutting your reliance on the grid by 50%, you stand to make a saving of $3.92 each day. That might not seem much but over the course of a year that’s $1,430 back in your pocket. Then there’s the other 50% of your solar production that you can export back to the grid. Based on today’s average solar feed in tariffs you’re looking at anywhere from 8 cents to 15 cents, depending on your electricity retailer. Let’s base our calculations somewhere in the middle… if you are exporting the remaining 50% at 12 cents per kW, that’s another saving of $1.68 cents per day, or a further $613 a year you’ll save in electricity costs. That’s a whopping total of $2,043 per year in electricity savings alone, which equates to a payback period of just over two years, leaving years ahead of you of pure savings.

Tweed Shire land values show strong growth says Valuer General Burringbar increased by between 16 to 23 per cent, which the report attributed to very strong increases in the Byron Shire’s land values placing outward pressure onto the southern parts of the Tweed Shire. At the northern end of the shire, Tweed Heads South had the highest increase of 19 per cent. “There was a strong increase in residential land values across the Tweed Local Government Area,” the Tweed valuation report reads. “Increases were mainly due to high demand for a limited supply of properties with a diminishing supply of new land releases, particularly along the coast. “There was a slight increase in land values for non-beachfront properties at Fingal and Cabarita Beach, while land values for nonbeachfront properties within close proximity to the beach at Pottsville and Hastings Point remained steady. “Residential unit site land values at Tweed Heads have increased slightly due to a lower demand for this property type.
The Tweed’s land values have risen sharply in the past four years.

“Land values in villages and rural residential areas generally increased slightly due to steady demand.” The valuation report said high investor demand drove commercial land to increase by 12.9 per cent in a year and 23.2 per cent in two years, while “firm demand” and limited supply of industrial property at Tweed Heads caused industrial land values to rise by 26.5 per cent in 12 months and 33 per cent in two years. “From 1 July 2017 through to 1 July 2018 the total value of industrial land in Tweed LGA increased very strongly overall, predominantly due to very strong value increases for flood free industrial land in the Industry Central Estate at South Murwillumbah, where strong demand for flood free land and reducing supply as available land was taken up, forced prices up by around 80 per cent,” the report stated. “The value of industrial land at South Tweed also increased very strongly (approximately 28 per cent) due to strong demand and low supply.” An ongoing increased demand for rural properties caused land values to rise by 8.9 per cent in 12 months and 26.5 per cent in two years, while sugar cane land remained steady. “The increase in land values for rural properties in Tweed local government area can be attributed to increased demand for rural home sites,”the report said. “The impact of the March 2017 floods remains a moderating impact on value levels in general.”

THE LATEST land valuation report released by the NSW Valuer General has shown the value of Tweed land has risen sharply over the past 12 months as demand continues to outstrip supply. The figures show the overall value of the Tweed’s land increased by 10.5 per cent in the year to July 2018 and 25.9 per cent in two years. Industrial land had the largest yearly increase of 26.5 per cent, followed by commercial land (12.9 per cent), residential land (10.6 per cent) and rural land (8.9 per cent). The report identified “high demand for a limited supply of properties” as the main factor leading to strong increases in residential land value, especially on the coast, as well as a strong tourism industry and low interest rates. On the coast Chinderah saw the highest increase in residential land values over 12 months, increasing by 29 per cent, followed by Pottsville (21 per cent), and Kingscliff (16 per cent).

ADDITIONAL WORKS will be carried out on the recently resurfaced road in the car park at Norries Headland, Cabarita Beach after causing problems for locals, visitors and business owners. The road surface is melting in the summer heat, resulting in a mass blowout of thongs and creating problems for one surf school operator. Belen Kimble-Fuller, who owns Salty Girls Surf School and In2Surf School with husband Josh, told The Weekly that the melted tar had become an issue for their business. “We were doing some lessons at Caba but the melted tar was getting all over the boards and the trailer and our vehicle,” she said. “Our clients were getting it stuck all over them and it was making a real mess of everything. “We have moved up to Kingscliff to run our school holiday programmes but we probably won’t go back to do lessons there this summer until it’s repaired.” Local Peter Consodine found himself stuck on the headland when his vehicle’s gear cable broke and called Craig Mitchel, a tow truck driver who operates Tweed Heads company Enterprise Towing. “He got under the car in the melting bitumen and fixed the cable so I could drive it to the mechanic,” he said. “I felt bad as he was so helpful and his shirt looked new to me but afterwards it had sticky bitumen on it.” Mr Mitchel said he was going to tow the car but managed to get it going. “I got under the car to try to look at it and had to put a blanket down so I didn’t get all
the bitumen sticking to me but it didn’t really help - it just seeps through,” he said. “If you walk on it with thongs you will pick it up.” Mr Mitchell previously worked as a line marker for the Department of Main Road for 13 years and believes the road hasn’t been sealed correctly. “They usually run the tar emulsion, the spray seal over it then they spread screenings over the top but it looks like they haven’t done the screenings,” he said. “On that first corner you can see how it’s obviously bled through. “I picked up a car a week before - a little Barina and it was parked on the road and it picked the bitumen up on the tyres so it was stuck to the tyres but that will come off. “If you drive on freshly-laid bitumen it’s about 200 degrees when they lay it the spray seal so if you drive on that you can really damage your tyres, but with the AC spray (a dense grade asphalt) up there it’s just sticky and bleeding so they just need some more top coat.” A Tweed Shire Council spokesperson said they were aware of the situation. “Additional works to cover the flushed bitumen areas, in particular the sharp corner, will be arranged and ongoing monitoring undertaken,” the spokesperson said. “These works will involve the spreading of more aggregates to improve the surface.” NSW Spray Seal, the subsidiary of RPQ contracted by Tweed Shire Council to do the road surface, was contacted by the Tweed Valley Weekly but declined to comment however the Weekly spoke to a Cabarita resident with experience in road surfacing who said the company was not to blame. The Weekly will have a follow up article on this in next week’s edition.

TWEED SHIRE Council is installing 3.5 kilometres of streetlights along the Casuarina cycleway with funds received from the State Government’s Department of Industries Stronger Countries Community Fund. Council contractor Coughran Electrical will start the six-month installation on January 31. An information flyer about the $992,000 project was distributed to households in the Salt-Casuarina area last week. Initially Council estimated the grant would pay for 2.5 kilometres of lights from Cathedral Court to Blue Horizon Drive, excluding the existing 742 metres of lighting between Oasis Way and Windsong Way, however due to efficiencies gained through the competitive tender process, the funds will pay for 3.5 kilometres of lights all the way south to Dryandras Court. Lighting the final 968 metres from Dryandras Court to the Cudgen Nature Reserve will be undertaken if Council can successfully apply for funds under future government grant programs. This final section features an elevated boardwalk and may cost more to light. The new LED lights will be fixed to lightgrey coloured, marine-grade aluminium poles,
whose design will allow easy installation of future CCTV cameras if and when required. The pole profile also allows easy fitting of items such as advertising banners. The motion-sensor lights will illuminate when a pedestrian enters a sensor arc, which will extend eight metres either side of the pole. The sensor arcs of neighbouring poles will overlap, meaning three to four lights will illuminate in quick succession giving the pedestrian or cyclist about 120 metres sight distance ahead. The lights, which will have 17-watt globes set on ‘moonlight’ luminosity, can be individually adjusted via remote control and dimmed by up to 80 per cent. The light will face the beach and a visor can be fitted to minimise light spill to nearby houses where required. The project is designed to improve safety along the shared-user path and to allow cyclists and pedestrians to use the path at night time. The shared-user path will remain open and essentially be unaffected during construction work. (The below images show an example of the street lighting and a map of the locations.)

Celebrate Australia Day with Kingscliff Lions KINGSCLIFF LIONS Club is gearing up for a big Aussie Breakfast on Saturday, January 26, which brings together volunteer and emergency service groups in a celebration of community culminating in a flag-raising and fiercely contested tug-of-war. Public Officer Alison Lewis said the breakfast had been running for many years and the club is looking forward to joining the community for the traditional breakfast. “It’s a very long-standing tradition - it’s been going on for years and starts at 7am,” she said. “We do it as a celebration of community and to give back to the community, to give them this family fun day. Ms Lewis said it was there was very little cost involved for families. “People can bring their own food if they want and we sell some food cheaply,” she said. “We have a barbecue with bacon and egg rolls and there’s orange juice and damper. “There’s a very competitive annual tug-ofwar between some of our local community organisations like the Cudgen SLSC who are the current champions. “We have a team of Kingscliff firies and the Cudgen Rural Fire Brigade, the Cudgen Hornets and I believe the Casuarina Rugby team, the Barbarians, are putting in a team. “We want to involve as many community organisations because it is a community event
and we usually have Rotary do the flag-raising at 8am,” Ms Lewis said. “We have a Council representative and speeches from Tweed Shire Australia Day CoAmbassadors Samuel Smith, who was TSC 2016 and 2017 Young Achiever in Community Service and Anthea Warne who was the 2017 TSC Sporting Achievement winner. “Then the tug-of-war and games like the egg and spoon race and gum-boot throwing follow. “It’s just a fun community day and finishes around 9.30am so people can go off to enjoy the rest of their day.” Kingscliff Lions Club President Graham Jackson has his traditional Australia Day shorts at the ready. “These shorts have been around for a long time,” he said. “Of course, it’s the first time we have held it in Rowan Robinson Park so we’re really hoping everyone will come along to enjoy the event.” The Kingscliff Lions Club began in 1957 and among its achievements are the construction of the current ambulance station, the purchase of an ambulance and payment of the salary of an ambulance officer for one year, the construction of the Lions Park once sand mining had finished on the beachfront, the soccer and cricket ovals and major fundraising for the swimming pool.

THE HISTORIC Stokers versus Aussie Memorial Cricket Match will take place on Sunday, January 27, with the Aussie side eager to make up for last year’s loss and put an end to the Stokers’ domination. The match will take place on one of the Murwillumbah cricket fields off Commercial Road for the friendly match which dates back to 1977. While not an official tournament, the match has commemorate the loss of the Australian Hotel since 1981, which burnt down in Murwillumbah’s CBD. The iconic pub remains immortalised in a special urn that carries some of the hotel’s ashes and was expertly crafted by Stokers Siding Pottery under former owner Bob Connery and encased in leather by Greg Balgowan. The urn is a coveted prize that’s highly sought after, with each year’s winner inscribed on the urn’s wooden case. Several keen cricketers and locals, including captians Lee Balgowan and Don Richards, took part in a photoshoot with The Weekly on Monday to promote the event and encourage the community to join in the fun as spectators. “It’s a great family day out and although we’re close to having the two sides filled, we would like everyone to come down and support their side,” Mr Balgowan said. Mr Richards said the tournament was well supported by local businesses including Sports World Murwillumbah and the Murwillumbah Cricket Club. Sports World Murwillumbah has also kindly donated two match balls and is a strong supporter of local sports. “We’d like to give a special thank you to the Murwillumbah Cricket Club for the use of the field and Sports World Murwillumbah, who give us great discounts on cricket gear and provide the game balls for free,” Mr Richards said.
Players are encouraged to get in touch and former participants are also encouraged to attend and can find out more information by phoning Lee on 0419 778 387. The game was first organised by Dave Cross, a school teacher at Murwillumbah High and Ken Padden, a cane farmer from Condong. The match will be played with 40 overs with no LBW calls and all players must bowl and hopefully get a bat. Players retire at 40 runs.
Lee and Donny are fired up for another year of Aussie vs Stokers Cricket - who will claim the coveted urn this year?

Tourism outlook and areas for improvement Northern Rivers makes By Jonathon Howard
TWEED TOURISM Company (TTC) General Manager Brad Nardi has fielded several questions from The Weekly to find out about some of the challenges and opportunities to keep the Tweed on the tourism map. Tweed Tourism Company is the lead organisation for the Tweed Shire’s tourism promotion having won a tender through the Tweed Shire Council in late 2018. Mr Nardi said Tweed Tourism Co has looked to collaborate with local businesses to find out where action was needed. “Although it would take too long to go into all priorities, I would briefly mention the following short-term priorities include a digital focus,” he said. “A heightened digital effort includes new social channels being implemented and a new destination website in the pipeline. “MICE Markets: The Meetings Incentives Conventions & Events (MICE) markets are an area many local businesses identify as either targeting or wanting to target. “We have responded by signing on to attend Australia’s largest trade event for this market in February and will be working with strategic partners (including Destination North Coast, Tweed Shire Council, Twin Towns and further industry) to drive this sector forward. “Operator Education: Programs to continually assist local tourism businesses to improve and redefine their businesses are being developed in the areas of experience development,
trade mentoring, and tourism packaging.” The Weekly asked Mr Nardi how Tweed Tourism will engage with tourism operators in 2019. “Engagement will occur with a range of industry events and workshops,” he said. “Additionally we are utilising digital channels including a Tweed Tourism Co Facebook channel which is focused on messaging for local industry, and we also send a range of information through our TTCnews (e-news) publication. “If any business would like to be on this list (tourism or otherwise) they can contact TTC’s Industry Liaison Shona Fuller (sfuller@thetweed.com. au) with their details.” Another burning question for tourism operators was what should local tourism operators be doing in 2019 and how can they engage with Tweed Tourism Co? “From TTC’s point of view the tourism economy will ultimately be a shared success,” Mr Nardi said “We ask operators to be interested and informed, and simple steps like reading a regular e-news and coming to networking events when possible is a great place to start, to connect the industry.” Mr Nardi also spoke about the recent inclusion of the Northern Rivers in the New York Times’ pick for the best travel destinations in 2019. “We certainly saw the wonderful New York Times feature, and TTC’s PR guru Kylie Mitchell Smith was also involved in hosting the writer (prior to the formation of TTC),” he said. “Whilst there have been some pleasing percentage gains in the

international visitor numbers to the Tweed recently, this is an area we can build on. “International markets can be a great source of visitation for a range of reasons including (generally) not being governed by a working week, and having different peak periods to our domestic visitors.” “The primary objective for TTC in the short term will be to assist with product development (operator education) and trade integration (working with international distribution partners) to maximise the potential return for the region.” Finally, The Weekly asked Mr Nardi what he believes are some of the biggest challenges to Tweed Tourism in 2019, and how can these be overcome? “The Tweed as a region is currently experiencing strong domestic daytrip visitation, this is especially evident in peak periods such as weekends,” he said. “Whilst the domestic daytrip figures are a positive, there has also been a slight slackening of overnight visitation for domestic markets. “This is certainly an area to focus on, to ensure that visitors are engaged with whole range of operators, to offer packages that represent the Tweed.”
THE NORTHERN Rivers has made a list of 52 must see destinations in the exclusive New York Times travel guide for 2019. The travel guide is a popular list of global tourism hotspots and features areas that are in many ways up-and-coming on the global tourism map. The Northern Rivers titled “Along a breezy coastline, boho paradise” and Perth were the only two Australian locations listed. New York Times travel writer Damien Cave provided (via nytimes.com) a back story around how the list is compiled and how the newspaper sources its tourism hotspots. “Many of you may be wondering how these places get chosen,” he wrote. “Anyone who lives near Perth and the Northern Rivers (where officials were thrilled to have been picked) are no doubt curious as well. “So, here’s a bit of the back story. “Every year, in September or October, editors for the Travel section email correspondents and trusted writers, asking for suggestions. “Many of us send along more ideas than they’ll ever choose — a mix of places we’ve grown to love, and those that might have something new or interesting to offer. “And sometimes, we also send the editors to people who might know more than we do. “That’s what happened this year. Both Australian selections came to us through Besha Rodell, our Australian food columnist, who travels the country looking for great food and hidden gems.” Mr Cave wrote that Perth and the Northern Rivers match a few of these qualifications. “Perth has new attractions; Northern Rivers has a new, boho food scene — and both are alternatives to Sydney and Melbourne,” he said. “They are also simply beautiful and unique places that the rest of the world should know more about. “This year’s 52 Places ought to help.”

Construction works at Tweed Valley Hospital site questioned CONSTRUCTION WORKS at the proposed Tweed Valley Hospital site at 771 Cudgen Road, have been questioned by several residents this week, with concerns the works are falling outside the Environmental Impact Statement. However, Health Infrastructure was quick to point out the works are in-line with the reports and the works are to “secure the site”. Images are circulating through the community from an anonymous source and show a range of earth works and fencing, which has prompted concerns from several residents around whether due process is being followed in relation to the hospital’s development. The images depict several large earth sediment holding bays, fencing and other earthworks. The Weekly took the resident’s concerns to Health Infrastructure and a spokesperson has sought to reassure the community that the “preliminary works (are) to secure the site and make it safe”. “Following acquisition of the site for the new Tweed Valley Hospital in November 2018, the Health Administration Corporation commenced preliminary works to secure the site and make it safe and apply appropriate environmental controls to ensure the protection of the sensitive wetland areas nearby,” the Health Infrastructure spokesperson said. “Most of the preliminary works have now been completed, including the majority of the site fencing, the removal of materials containing asbestos and demolition of vacant
buildings, as well as geotechnical and other site investigations.” The Health Infrastructure spokesperson said the remaining preliminary works comprise ongoing noxious weed management, completion of sediment basins to control and improve the quality of stormwater runoff and fencing along the northern part of the site. “These works are scheduled to be completed in February 2019,” the Health Infrastructure spokesperson said. “The public exhibition period for the Tweed Valley Hospital Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and site-specific State Environmental Planning Policy (SEPP) closed December 13, 2018, and provided another important opportunity for stakeholders to have their say. “The project team is currently reviewing EIS submissions from the community and government agencies. “A Response to Submissions report will be lodged with the Department of Environment and Planning in the coming weeks.” In response, Relocate Team spokeswoman Hayley Paddon said she remains concerned about “buffer destruction”. “What we do know is that a decision has now been taken by Heath Infrastructure (HI) NSW to pursue the buffer destruction needed for the Hospital Project under the pretext of “protecting” the environment from farm activity,” she said.
“State law prohibits the splitting State Significant Development Applications into separate activities, but HI NSW has nevertheless used its powers as a Statutory Authority to remove the pond works from the EIS and perform them separately as if HI NSW was a farmer who needs to protect the wetland from the effects of runoff from his agricultural activities. “Though farming has obviously ceased on the site since acquisition for a Hospital.” Mrs Paddon said if HI NSW were farmers they could “not possibly enter the protective buffer zone and destroy it”. “As the Coastal Protection Act requires all such new agricultural disturbance to occur outside the buffer,” she said. “However site photos recently obtained indicate that whoever does have jurisdiction is not concerned that earthworks spillage over silt fences into the wetland fringe is already occurring.” Mrs Paddon said HI NSW must know this ploy is a cynical manipulation of their role as hospital developers but insist in their application that the wetland urgently needs protection from their agricultural activities. “Without this device, they would legally be obliged to include the pond work in their EIS for the site,” she said. “Subsequent thorough investigations would then most likely trigger exclusion of the entire gazetted buffer from use by the
An image from an unknown source was sent The Weekly of the site
hospital, rendering the remaining site hopelessly too small,” she said. “Hence the best approach is to destroy the environmental buffer as quickly as possible before anyone finds out the truth of the enormous site choice mistake.” According to Tweed Shire Council’s submission to the Department of Planning and Environment that objected to the major project “a 50m buffer is normally required with the outer edge having some infrastructure”. Council will also write to Health Infrastructure NSW and request that works at the proposed Tweed Valley Hospital site at Cudgen cease due to planning matters, following advice through Council’s legal representatives. The decision was made following a four to three vote in favour of penning the letter requesting the ceasing of works at an Extraordinary Meeting held on Friday, December 21.
The motion was carried four votes to three and outlined that Council writes to Health Infrastructure, the Health Administration Corporation, the NSW Ministers for Health and Planning, and the Department of Planning and Environment. “Advises the above parties through Council's legal representatives that legal advice has been received in relation to the preliminary works and requests the works be ceased until resolution of these planning matters,” the motion reads. “Requests documentation of all works carried out to date on the site with respect to this proposal, including the photographic evidence of current site conditions.” The motion was carried with a for vote from Cr Reece Byrnes, Cr Chris Cherry, Cr Ron Cooper, Cr Katie Milne. Those against the motion included Cr James Owen, Cr Warren Polglase, Cr Pryce Allsop.
Greens candidate says he wants to retain hospital at Tweed Heads GREEN CANDIDATE for the state seat of Tweed, Bill Fenelon, has announced his “unequivocal support” for The Tweed Hospital to be retained and expanded. Mr Fenelon said he believes the current hospital should be retained rather than “building a nine-storey new facility on state significant farmland south of the Tweed River”. His stance is aligned with Tweed Mayor Katie Milne and NSW Greens MLC Dawn Walker.
“What should be a bipartisan decision to provide quality health care has degenerated into unhelpful political point-scoring,” he said. “If they really had the community's best interests at heart, they would stop bickering and reach a sensible solution that would bring the community together. “That will never happen if a hospital is built either on the National Party's proposed Cudgen site or Labor's proposed Kings Forest site.
“The only advantage that Kings Forest has is that it would not be located on rich, fertile, red soil. “All the other impacts apply to both locations, that is, increased traffic congestion, loss of amenity, giving a green light to high rise and over-development, which the community vehemently opposes.” Mr Fenelon said he believes the solution is to retain and expand The Tweed Hospital north of the river.
“There's ample room for expansion and the zoning already allows for high rise,” he said. “On top of that, the majority of the Shire's population reside in Tweed Heads, so it makes perfect sense to keep the hospital where it is.” Bill Fenelon recently met with local Cudgen farmers Hayley and Jim Paddon, who head up the Relocate Tweed Valley Hospital team, to discuss how the Greens can best support their push to preserve
the rich, fertile, red soil for food production. “The Greens are 100 per cent committed to protecting our rural and beachside villages, state significant farmland, pristine environment and lifestyle,” Mr Fenelon said. “I will do whatever I can to stop Gold Coast-style chaos creeping in south of the river. “The Tweed is the best place in the world, and I’m dedicated to ensuring it stays that way.”

TOP TRADIES When you support a local business you're not helping a CEO buy a third holiday home. Instead you're helping a little girl get dance lessons, a little boy to get his team jersey and a mum or dad to put food on the table. Support your local businesses by thinking and shopping local. Has your Hot Water System been checked lately? EVER HEARD OF A SACRIFICIAL ANODE? A sacrificial anode is a vital part of your water system, and having it inspected can be the difference between an efficiently working system and a costly replacement. The anode in your system should never be allowed to corrode away, whatever type or brand of system you have – solar, electric, gas or heat pumps.

Police issue multiple fines on Tweed waterways in Operation Safe Water By Jo Kennett POLICE HAVE been out in force on Tweed Shire waterways and issued multiple infringement notices as part of Operation Safer Water which runs from January 12 - 20. Tweed Byron Police District Acting Inspector Leanne Edmonds said that watercraft operators were being warned not to drink while operating a vessel, to wear lifejackets, and to check their equipment as part of the statewide maritime safety operation. “It was very busy on Saturday January 12 on the waterways but we don’t have the final wash-up figures on how many infringements were issued,” Insp Edmonds told The Weekly. “We were making sure they complied with safety regulations and we did breath and drug testing. “There were a number of unregistered vessels and also unlicensed operators issued with infringement notices for noncompliance.” Acting Insp Edmonds said Tweed Byron Command was working in conjunction with Sydney Water Police and Marine Area Command on the operation. “We also worked with Maritime and Fisheries and had a number of jobs called in that we attended as well,” she said. “There were a number of issues with drunken drivers and speeding was also an issue - we were doing compliance checks particularly around Boyds Bay Bridge which has a six knot speed limit.
“There was also a lot of safety issues with non-compliant safety equipment like lifejackets.” “The operation is to keep everyone safe on our waterways and we encourage everyone to reread the boating handbook which can be obtained from NSW Maritime Services or online to ensure compliance.” A Murwillumbah woman who didn’t wish to be named told The Weekly she visits the Tweed River at Fingal on weekends and regularly sees unsafe practises from watercraft operators. “It’s always worse over the school holidays and long weekends,” she said. “It was a relief to see the Water Police out in force on Sunday, with an RIB (inflatable boat) plus two police jet skis. “It was quieter because of them and, that day, I only saw one wake boat go out, but the hooning did start again.” The woman said she thought that some of the problem jet ski drivers were just unaware of water rules and inexperienced. “Others are downright antisocial, driving in circles to create as much wash as possible, even right in front of the harbour entrances where boats are going in and out, or towing at high speed close to other vessels,” she said. “They would lose their licence if they drove a car or motorbike like that on a road. “You wouldn’t want to be out in a tinny fishing with all that going on and the noise for the residents and visitors at Fingal is horrible.”
Jet skis passing a sailing boat on the Tweed River near Fingal
The woman said their behaviour often spoiled it for other water users as well as being dangerous. “I go down to Fingal to watch the sailboat races and enjoy sitting by the river,” she said. “The sailors just get on with sailing, keeping focused on the race so there are no unpleasant altercations - the jet skis are treated as another obstacle in the course. “However it really is ridiculous what some water users get away with, dangerous and surely illegal behaviour. I would like to know if they are being fined as it looked like only verbal warnings were being given.” Tweed Valley Weekly sailing columnist Bill Fenelon spoke to the The Weekly from aboard the South Passage Tall Ship which he is skippering for the Duke of Edinburgh Awards, about a recent incident on the river when his
boat was dismasted by speeding wakeboard boats. “Two boats including my own were swamped by waves and dismasted and one was capsized when we were surrounded by about ten wake boats,” he said. “They were speeding all around us and all the kids that were sailing came in because they were scared, so it’s a real issue. “It was mayhem, it was a Gold Coast boat sales business doing a promotional day but this type of things happens all the time, including with jet skis. “There is no speed limit on most of the river. I live at Fingal and it’s horrible - that type of stuff is ruining the river and it seems the authorities aren’t doing anything about it.” Mr Fenelon has made a formal complaint about the incident to NSW Road and Maritime Services
and wants something done “before someone is killed”. President of Tweed District Rescue Squad VRA Drew Carr told The Weekly that his squad is accredited for inland waterways rescues. “It takes more time to coordinate a response for marine emergencies,” he said. “We had a jet ski collision recently in the Terranora Inlet - they were riders known to each other and out enjoying the waterways but they unfortunately collided with each other so we had to help to get them out of the water and to an ambulance. “The number of jet skis is increasing due to their popularity and the decreasing cost. “More watercraft means we need more awareness to make sure rules are abided to ensure the safety of all water users.”

Laugh yourself healthy at the Tweed Library By Megan Albany TWEED LOCAL Ilona Tanner is the first to tell you that she thinks the sometimes-serious practice of yoga is hilarious. Not only that but now she’s bringing the sound of snorts and giggles to the place that traditionally shushes raucous laughter - the library. As part of the Tweed Heads library program of free workshops for the community, Ms Tanner will be doing a laughter yoga demonstration, to show how easy it can be to get fit and healthy by harnessing the best medicine of all - laughter. Laughter Yoga is a new twist on an ancient practice, that practitioners claim not only increases happiness, but also strengthens the immune system, reduces pain and lowers stress. “A lot of people think they can’t do yoga, but laughter yoga isn’t tying yourself in knots, it’s about breathing and that’s where the yoga part of laughter yoga comes in,” Ms Tanner said. “It’s the breath that promotes the wellbeing.” By concentrating more on the outbreath than the in breath, Ms Tanner said yoga can help people to oxygenate their system and release stress that can impact their wellbeing. “It helps with lowering blood pressure, kicking in endorphins and acts like a happy pill,” she said. “It helps with anxiety, stress and depression.” While you may not feel like laughing when you come to the class, Ms Tanner explains that even just pretending to laugh can provide health benefits.
“In yoga laughter we consciously mimic a laugh and then often real laughter then kicks in,” she said. “It’s not like someone is going to tell jokes that’s not how it works. “We start by just making the noise of ho-ho-ho then ha-ha-ha and mimicking the process of a laugh - it’s an exercise to move the body into creating a laugh.” According to Ms Tanner there is no prerequisite fitness level for practicing yoga laughter as it can be practiced standing or sitting by any age group and has even been used with patients in hospitals. “It has been used a lot with cancer patients in oncology wards,” Ms Tanner said. “You can do it sitting down or standing up or even if you are recovering, it gets you back on your feet again and exercising without realising you are exercising.” However, Ms Tanner said while it is a very gentle form of exercise that people shouldn’t be fooled into thinking they won’t get a good workout. “People who want a full aerobic workout still come to classes because, believe me, if you try to laugh for forty minutes you start to puff very quickly,” Ms Tanner. “That’s why it’s also great for people who for whatever reason can’t actually do other types of aerobic exercise.” If you don’t think you could take a laughter yoga class seriously, that’s the point according to Ms Tanner. “The idea is to bring out the inner child in you,” she said. “If you take notice of children it’s easy to see that they don’t care about
Ilona Tanner and the yoga team
anything, they just jump and laugh and imagine. “That’s why we do a lot of imaginary things in the class.” If you think the gentleness of the practice means you can get away without any muscle aches and pains however, then Ms Tanner suggests you think again. “You’ve heard of side splitting laughs, well I laugh in these classes until I ache,” she said. “But it’s a good ache, it gets the endorphins flowing and by concentrating on the out breath you are cleaning your lungs and filling them up with air. “As we get older we tend to fold in and hunch up on ourselves and you can imagine what that does to your chest. “Laughing helps us to counter that and to really take a breath in and exhale using our diaphragms.” The free Laughter Yoga demonstration takes place at Tweed Heads library – Friday, February 15, at 11am. Bookings essential, phone (07) 5569 3150.
Shaping Outcomes used their 2018 Tweed Shire Council grant to help children with disabilities through playgroup sessions.
Community grants open APPLICATIONS FOR Tweed Shire Council’s community grants program 2019 are now open with some success stories emerging from last year’s grant round. In 2018, the organisation Shaping Outcomes were thrilled to receive a grant from Council for $2,689 to support Tweed Shire children, who are highly vulnerable and disadvantaged through their Let’s Play Playgroup. With the funds, 11 free playgroup sessions for children with disabilities were held in Murwillumbah and Tweed Heads with more than 25 children and parents in attendance. As one example, the service was able to support the parents of a four-year-old boy who attended a playgroup session. The boy had recently been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and the family had no knowledge of the local area or support services available. Shaping Outcomes advised them about schools, preschools, and services that are inclusive of children with ASD and other support they could access. “Shaping Outcomes and the Community Health team were very nice and shared lots of information,” the Tweed Heads mother of the boy said. “Being new to the area it was very helpful to have this contact with these two key services for our son.” Apply for the grant funding today and make a real difference in your community - https://www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/ GrantsAndFunding

Family gather round Jim for his 90th Nursing scholarships WHILE MOST people would rather not spend their birthdays in hospital, for master Wardrop Valley potter Jim Hall, his unfortunate circumstances were offset by celebrating his 90th birthday surrounded by family and friends. While he admits his birthday “could have been better”, he was still more than happy to be celebrating at such a ripe old age. “I didn’t think I’d get to 90,” Mr Hall said. “This wouldn’t be my favourite birthday. “My favourite birthday would have to have been when I was a child and my mother took me down to the Scottish Highland Gathering in Sydney. “All the drums and pipers were all in a row and they marched together as they played.” While his trip to Sydney was his favourite birthday because it reflected his proud Scottish heritage, Mr Hall said the highlight of his life to date was during his time as an amateur gold prospector. “I found two ounces of gold at Wattle Flat,” he said. “At first I thought I’d found one bit of gold and then, I thought ‘blow me down’, as I realised there were two bits of gold in the same section of water.” Originally from the Wollongong area where he taught pottery at TAFE and Wollongong University, Mr Hall moved to the Tweed with his wife Shirley in the 1970s where he retired and became a full-time artist at 42. The Wardrop Valley local was joined for his birthday by his wife of 67 years, his only daughter Beth Cavallari and long-term friends, including neighbour Des Carter.
The Hall family gathered around Jim for his 90th birthday in hospital
“We’ve been neighbours for 45 years and one thing I know for sure is that everything Jim does, he does boots and all,” Mr Carter said. “When he first moved up here, he was doing pottery and so he built his own kiln. “After that he said, photography sounds good and built his own darkroom and developed his own photos. “A few years later he thought he’d try blacksmithing and build a forge. “Next thing he’s saying, ‘I think I’ll try metal turning’ and then he got a metal turning lathe. “Then he turned his hand to wood turning and built what I call the titanic of wood turning lathes, it was huge!” Mr Hall’s ability to turn his hand at pretty much whatever he put his mind to resulted in him becoming a lifetime member of Murwillumbah Potters, after
having built their kiln for the respected community organisation. “You really have to see some of his work,” enthused Mr Carter. “He has even made a copy of a cannon on display at the museum in Western Australia, he actually went to the museum to get the plans for it.” However, Mr Carter said the thing he appreciates most about his long-term friendship with Mr Hall is how much they have been there for each other over the years. “When we first moved here we helped each other to build our houses,” he said. “Back then, if you saw a redi-mix truck going past you would grab your wellies and shovel and follow it because you knew someone would need help. “That’s just how things were back then and that’s how our friendship started.”
THE NORTHERN NSW Local Health District has welcomed the NSW Government’s announcement of more than 250 scholarships to study nursing and start a career with NSW Health. Katharine Duffy, Northern NSW Local Health District’s Director of Nursing and Midwifery, said the Enrolled Nurse Scholarships are aimed at school leavers wanting to start nursing careers or people seeking an exciting career change. “The NSW Government Enrolled Nurse Scholarships are a great opportunity for anyone in the local community, young or old, considering a career in nursing,” Ms Duffy said. Health Minister Brad Hazzard said more than $1.5 million will be spent by the NSW Government on the 2019 Enrolled Nurse Scholarship program, with applications now open. “This is a fantastic opportunity for anyone interested in pursuing a rewarding career as a nurse at one of our public health facilities or hospitals,” Mr Hazzard said. “Not only does the scholarship include course fees for a Diploma of Nursing but there is a guaranteed job offer at the end of it. “Enrolled Nurses are a valued part of the health care team, caring for people when they are feeling most vulnerable, across a variety of clinical settings including acute medical and surgical units, operating theatres and mental health.” In 2018/19, the NSW Government is boosting frontline clinicians across the state, with an additional 950 nurses and midwives. This includes investing an extra $8.1 million for 80 new specialised nursing midwifery and support positions. The scholarships for the Diploma of Nursing are available at 24 campuses, seven in metropolitan Sydney and 17 across each and every regional and rural Local Health District in NSW. To be eligible you must be an Australian citizen or permanent resident living in NSW. Aboriginal people are particularly encouraged to apply for the scholarships, in line with a commitment to grow the Aboriginal workforce across NSW and improve local health outcomes. The scholarships run in partnership with TAFE NSW and the NSW Health Registered Training Organisation. To apply, visit NSW Health’s website at: www.health.nsw. gov.au. Applications close Tuesday, February 19.

Take some of the stress out of getting Tweed Shire kids back to school
By Jo Kennett TWEED FAMILIES are gearing up to get back to school and experts say some simple planning can help to reduce the stress and make the return easier. Lauren and Jessie Gray are getting ready for the return of Jessie’s children Georgie and Harper to school. 14-year-old Georgie is going to Year 9 at St Joseph’s College Banora Point while 12-year old Harper will be in Year 7. “Dad has to go and organise Harper’s school computer because he is starting high school this year so that’s a really big thing because the computer has to be all the right specifications for the school,” Lauren said. “He’s also had to change all his school uniforms because he’d already grown out of them this summer. Georgie is planning on going stationary shopping and is looking for good books but ‘not the cheap ones because they don’t last. “It’s stressful because I leave it until the last minute and then realise, I’ve forgotten something. Lauren said that it could definitely be a time of financial stress for families. “This year it is for us because we have a whole new computer and you have to buy the expensive school shoes that last because the cheaper ones don’t last- Harper wrecks them within a term,” she said. “The last minute rush is always a bit stressful. “The biggest issue is fitting it all in their school bags - their bags are bigger than them and so heavy.”
Father Jessie is a paramedic and said that he was used to the stress of getting back to school. “You have to plan ahead though,” he said. Teacher Lauren said that Harper had been helping with saving up for his computer. “That’s so he can upgrade from the basic computer that we are going to buy,” she said. “So we’ve been preparing for that, he’s been extra jobs around the house for a few months to help save.” Genevieve Matthews, is a mother of two and founder of online educational resource ‘Schools Coming’ that helps parents organise their back to school routine. Genevieve said thast parent can often feel frazzled by the time the night before school comes around. “That’s before getting the kids out of the door on time the next morning,” she said. “Getting organised for back to school can involve a lot of running around, shopping for new shoes and uniforms, digging out the old ones, buying new notebooks and stationery equipment – the list is endless. “There are so many tasks we have to do to keep everything running smoothly in the mornings. However by involving the children, you not only take the strain off yourself, you empower them and give them autonomy which builds independent thinking and confidence – skills that will set them up for life. Genevieve’s top tips for getting back to school stress-free: 1. Pre-plan - this is more than a routine, this is about understanding the desired flow for the week, term,

activities and timing. Communicate this in advance so that the family is working together and has an action plan around making the days work harmoniously and effectively. Kids and parents should understand what they each have on. Have a family meeting before the new term starts. You can even make up your own planning chart together using different colour pens for different activities. I like to use FriXion Colors because they are erasable so if plans change, you can rub them out without making a mess. 2. Make a list - together with your children, list all the tasks that need to be completed in order to get to school on time. Kids love to volunteer what they think so make it a fun activity. Start with night before task, eg ‘lay out clean uniform and
shoes’, ‘pack fruit in lunch-box’, pack sports uniform. For children still learning to read, you can use symbols and pictures to make it easy for them to understand. 3. Delegate – by involving children in the planning process, you are giving them a voice and this approach removes you from being the ‘nagging’ one. This way, they are much more likely to take ownership and put their hand up for tasks. Mutually agree and assign tasks so everyone knows their role. 4. Stay positive – easier said than done in the moment, especially when children are lagging and time is marching on. Check in on the progress of their routine and encourage them to refocus if they have become distracted. Ask them to advise you how they’re tracking,
so they are responsible for their achievements and wins along the way, rather than nagging and reminding them every step of the way. “Having great morning routines for each family member takes practice and working together,” Genevieve said. “To keep it harmonious and fun, remember to laugh, keep practicing and persevering. “It’s worth the effort now setting your kids up with great habits and skills around teamwork and time management for later in life.” For more tips and advice on setting up a back to school routine that works for your family, visit http:// www.schoolscoming.com.

Death becomes her: Christine Mellor’s story By Megan Albany WHILE MOST people wouldn’t think of road kill as beautiful, let alone worthy of turning into art, in the hands of artist Christine Mellor dead animals are transformed into gallery worthy and very saleable artworks. The Uki artist, who first came to the fore in the Murwillumbah Art Trail (MAT18) 2018, recently opened her latest exhibition at the Richmond Tweed Regional Library titled: Het-Sledhtste Deel van een Wis (the worst part of a fish). The exhibition is initially only showcasing her paintings, however her sculptural work will also be available for viewing in the library in May in conjunction with MAT19. The artist’s sculptures and paintings feature materials such as feathers and bones sourced from road kill, however Ms Mellor is quick to explain that her art is actually more about death in general. “It’s not about road kill but about the temporality of life,” she said. “Death is something that a lot of people don’t like to think about and because of that I think there are a lot of opportunities that we miss because we think we are going to be here forever but we’re not.” The delicate, graceful sculptures and intricate artworks that dominate Ms Mellor’s work are fairly unrecognisable from their original source and often require a second or third look before you realise what has inspired the works. “The feedback that I get about the art I make, particularly my sculptures, is that the pieces are beautiful and therefore death need not be this terrifying thing that a lot of people think it will be,” she said. Far from wanting to be gruesome Ms Mellor believes that art is all about embracing beauty. “It’s nice to look at nice things, it makes us feel good,” she said. “For me art is about stopping and taking notice of the insignificant things which are so beautiful, but we can be in such a hurry we just step over them.” As a child, Ms Mellor said she was always collecting treasures from nature and that her work is a continuum of this.
FILMS th Mia wi
STORM BOY
Storm Boy, Colin Thiele’s 1964 classic Australian novel, was adapted for the screen the first time in 1976 and won the Best Film at the Australian Film Awards. Now there is a new, contemporary version of the movie with the issue of environmental conservation at its heart.
One of the outstanding pieces by Christine Mellor
“I’ve always been a collector of all sorts of things, odd bits of nature that are just scraps and discarded. “There’s always something beautiful you look closely enough - there are amazing things in nature. “When I was a child we lived in the country and we were allowed to go adventuring by ourselves and I would go out for a whole day poking around rivers and collecting rocks and making mud pies - it was lovely.” Ms Mellor is currently working on a new series of paintings and sculptures which will form the basis for her MAT19 exhibition. “With new work there always comes growth and new ideas so although the basic idea of my work will be the same it will be portrayed slightly differently.” Despite what could be considered an unpalatable subject matter, Ms Mellor has in the past been pleasantly surprised by the saleability of her work. “I was exceptionally happy with my sales at MAT18 last year as I think a lot of people were,” she said. “However, I do understand that sales depend on who attends the exhibitions as everyone’s taste is different.”
The story starts with Michael Kingly - a retired businessman and grandfather confronted with the decision of whether to lease farmland in the Pilbara region to a mining company - who reminisces about his childhood and tells his granddaughter how as a boy in the 1950s he rescued and raised an orphaned pelican, Mr.Percival. The story of the friendship between young Michael and the bird is nothing short of extraordinary and touching, for both young viewers and adults. To prepare for the filming, five pelicans were reared, some of them rescues. Finn Little, the young actor who plays Michael, first met the birds when they were just six weeks old and did bonding sessions with them on a weekly basis so that they would consider him as part of their group. They formed a strong affinity with each other, allowing the filming of scenes that surely will bring tears to the eyes of both young and adult viewers. Films about the relationship between children and animals often are a coming-of-age story, where having to say goodbye to a pet becomes a metaphor for growing up and for moving from the innocence of childhood to a world of compromise and complications, and this theme is strong in Storm Boy. The film was shot along the coast of the Coorong in South Australia, near the mouth of the Murray River, which is the same location used for the 1976 movie. The film stars Geoffrey Rush as the old Michael and David Gulpilil among others, but Percival steals the show..!

“We will have everyone joining in group singing and percussion sessions to enhance the musical performances and provide a fantastic experiences for the audience and PBNC’s Master of Ceremonies will guide and encourage participation throughout the concert. “It’s just something different and it should be a lot of fun and a great day.” Drew said the song selection would focus on songs from bygone eras and that audience requests would be accommodated where possible. “The emphasis will be on having fun, establishing new and maintaining current connections with peers and others to reminisce, within a safe and easily accessible community space,” he said. “The event title “Jam‘n’Songs” is a play on words about bands jamming and jam and scones, with the latter being popular inclusions in afternoon teas across the nation. “So heads up, scones, jam and cream will feature on the afternoon tea menu at the event.” Time: 1pm to 3pm Thursday, February 14. Place: Outside at PBNC’s quadrangle, behind the main administration building at 12a Elizabeth Street, Pottsville Beach.

LITTLE STEVIE & THE TAIL FINS
POTTSVILLE BEACH Neighbourhood Centre (PBNC) is hosting a free popup live music interactive concert and afternoon tea for seniors to celebrate the 2019 NSW Seniors Festival on Thursday, February 14. PBNC Community Capacity Worker and one of the event organisers Drew Stevenson said that organisers were looking for something different to the usual events they run for the Seniors Festival. “Our manager Angela Maxwell and Paul Riddett came up with the idea,” Mr Stevenson said. “Paul is a musician and runs some programmes here with children and they thought they could do something similar for seniors. “It’s just something a bit different to what we’ve done before - we wanted to get the seniors active and outside and we know that music can stave off dementia. “It’s something fun where seniors can reminisce and join in with the songs they may have grown up with when they were younger.” Mr Stevenson said that everyone is welcome but bookings are essential. “PBNC’s own in-house and guest performers will entertain seniors with renditions of a variety of songs from the audience’s generation, within a format of crowd participation,” he said.

South Passage sails past Tweed THE TALL ship, known as South Passage, passed between Fingal Head and Cook Island at 9am on Tuesday, January 15, with Master Mariner Captain Bill Fenelon at the helm. The ship was on course north and passing Point Danger on its way to Brisbane. The crew of 24 youths have been on board South Passage since January 9 on a sailtraining voyage from Sydney to Brisbane, completing the Gold Duke of Edinburgh Award.
The youths will learn to crew the ship and stand sea watches 24-hours a day throughout the 10-day voyage. “South Passage is owned by the not-for-profit organisation, the Sail Training Association of Queensland, and I have been a captain of this ship for over 12 years,” Mr Fenelon said. “The ship is a 100-foot, gaff rigged schooner, similar in design to sail-powered trading schooners from the 1900s. “It is totally traditional in its operation, requiring physical effort to raise sails, trim sails and even the anchor is lifted using manual effort.”

Cocky Classic set to make return to Tweed THE COCKY Classic is set to return to the Tweed Shire on Saturday, January 19, to allow those residents living with a disability to experience the joys of surfing. The Disabled Surfers Association of the Far North Coast are having their annual gathering at Kingscliff, at the Coast Guard Tower Beach. The event is known as the Cocky Classic after the late Peter “Cocky” Stannard who was a staunch supporter of the Disabled Surfers Association and put in many hours of volunteer work throughout his later life for the benefit of the local Disabled Community. Event media officer Diana Willis said the event is in need of surfing and waterwise volunteers.
“To help the Disabled Community to have a safe water experience it takes many volunteers for a day at the beach, which most of us take for granted,” she said. “Our aim is to put smiles on the dials of participants and volunteers alike. “We provide rash vests, sun lotion, water and a free lunch to all volunteers. Just turn up at 9am, sign-on, have a quick briefing, and then into the water for some fun. “Particpants are welcome to come along at 10am, to sign-on, then go surfing.” The event is followed by a barbque lunch and presentation and will finish at 1.30pm. For more information please email Diana on dianasgarden@hotmail.com Residents can also phone 0417 812 414 for more details.

Hello my name is Kathleen Corocher, I am a qualified crystal & energy healer based in Kingscliff. Crystal energy healing is a very effective way of balancing your chakras & cleansing the aura. Chakra balancing can increase mental & emotional clarity, improving happiness & wellbeing. Crystals have vibrational energy that works with our own energy, restoring & balancing our body, mind & spirit. I have always had an interest in crystals having worked with them for over 25 years balancing the flow of energy for family & friends. Having spent 15 years working with my family on our organic farm it gave me an holistic approach to life, being at one with nature & universal energy. 6 years ago I decided to take a professional approach as a healer to be of service to others interested in crystal energy healing. I became certified in crystal healing,

energy healing & clinical practice. Chakras manage the flow of energy in & out of the body. Yin is the receiver of energy & yang is the expresser of energy, when both of these energies are balanced they create a flow. Crystal healing can assist energy healing with programmed crystals selected intuitively for individual clients. All sessions are conducted in a private healing room and you remain fully clothed. I am certified in clinical practice & all sessions are client confidential. Just 1-3 sessions can help improve your wellbeing. Listed below are examples of healing I perform.

Bereavement
Matthew Conaghan 4/5/1960 – 4/12/2018
Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free. I’m following the path God has laid, you see. I took His hand when I heard His call. I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day, To laugh, to love, to work or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way, I found the peace at the close of day. If my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joys. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, yes, these things I too will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow. I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. 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
In Memoriams Those special memories of you will always bring a smile if only I could have you back for just a little while.
A Return thanks for Matthew Conaghan of Murwillumbah. Late former Husband of Carol Boan, loving Dad of Ashlea & Courtney and loving devoted partner of Elayne Foster of the last 14 years. A thank you to Wedgetail Hospice & Staff. Family and friends.
Then we could sit and talk again just like we used to do You always meant so very much and always will do too. The fact that you’re no longer here will always cause me pain But you’re forever in my heart until we meet again.

Cabarita on top of ladder as Cudgen head for T20 finals AFTER A great campaign in Shepparton (see story right) Caleb Ziebell just made it back for the second half of the Cudgen v Tintenbar/East Ballina home game. Cudgen won the toss and elected to bowl first. Connor Ziebell came out firing taking 2/9.

Wilson opened the batting for Cudgen making 22 runs.

Cudgen was all out for 88 and Tintenbar went back in to bat in the second innings with James Julius and Connor Ziebell taking a wicket each, ending the visitors run at 2/5.

Adam Rogers scored 41 and Jamie Bennett was next best with 33 though Todd Fisher was the fly in the ointment for the Tweed lads taking 5/34. The batting effort didn’t leave much time for Lennox to bat, only getting 14 overs in but Lennox looks in good form leading into next week, ending the day at 0/80. Murwillumbah took on Ballina at Ballina. They won the toss and sent Ballina in to bat. Ballina’s batting saw them dominate the day scoring 9/295 after 80 overs with the help of a couple of half centuries.

New sailors love the Tweed
DID YOU see the 20 sails out on the river at Fingal last Sunday? That was your local sailing club putting on a great show in their first regatta of 2019. They also ran a Try Sailing event for adults keen to learn or get back on the water, some after a 20 year break! Byron Bay family Suzanna, Michael and Lucy Murray drove up to Fingal to take Lucy for her first sail. It may have been over 20 years since Suzanna had sailed but as she said “its like riding a bike” and they spent the morning exploring the river on one of the club Corsairs. In the afternoon 36 crew enjoyed the racing with some complete beginners getting their first taste of how much fun sailing can be. There were three class championships running too. Firstly The NS14s who were missing a few key players,so only three boats competing. Just back from competing in the NS14 Nationals Robert Preston took out beginner crew Igor Prado and was only 18 seconds behind 2nd placed Dave Robinson with son Hugh. First place went to Adam Hurt and junior crew
Thomas Busbridge. The singlehanded Impulses, with four competitors, had Peter Fell visiting from Brisbane up the front also taking line honours in the monohulls in 74 mins. Tim Brown on Itchy Coo was over three minutes ahead of new kid on the Impulse block, Craig Foley on “Woodcraft” and Lex Branch on “Splitter” brought up the rear. Most of the Laser fleet were missing which gave some first timers a chance. Monique Smith, racing in this class for the first time on Flying Dragon put up a good fight against hard-to-beat Kate Yeomans on Bluey, both finishing middle of the fleet. Dave Condor from Byangum was sailing his laser for only the 2nd time and did well in the first two laps but slipped a few places in the final lap. Only one multihull raced - Hobie 16 Sledder Dave Chester is keen to get more multihulls to race against - in the meantime they entertain the rest of the fleet! The 3-handed Corsairs had a break from their class champ series but still had six boats racing. Karen Vidler skippering Club Corsair 107 with Rob Shaddock and Marg Walgers, led the Corsairs for the first leg and had a close race with

FIRST PLACED CORSAIR Nimbus Debbie and Scott Jones and Matt Andrews
with Bill Fenelon
Scott and Debbie Jones on “Nimbus” with ring-in crew and sailmaker Matthew Andrews from Ocean Shores who eventually beat Karen to the line by only 35 seconds. Karen will be one to watch for the rest of the series. Karen’s 11-year-old son Kynan Luescher also impressed everyone today - stepping up to take the helm of Corsair “One Too Many” with owners Liz and Michael Grace who are still learning the ropes of their new boat. Corsair Melita III somehow managed to scrape in at third place. This was despite bringing up the rear of the fleet for the first two laps and making so many mistakes, missing course marks and a going back to correct, that they nearly decided to just head to the beach for a swim - the river was so clear and inviting. Skipper Alison Blatcher and new crew Camille Lettieri and Wren Mclean got it together for the last lap and just pipped Peter Ross, Christine Martin and Mark Storrier on “Adrift” at the line, so they swapped the swim for the only close finish of the day. Next race Feb 3, social sails Fri Jan 18 and Wed Jan 23 - all welcome. www. tvsc.com.au
Caleb Ziebell named player of the 2019 Australian Country Cricket Championships CALEB ZIEBELL has been recognised as one of the best country cricketers in Australia going back to back with his selection into the Australian Country Merit team and named player of the 2019 Australian Country Cricket Championships which wrapped in Shepparton on
January 10. The Bush Blues dominated the T20 final against Queensland and retained the championship shield with Caleb featuring. The Cudgen player top scored in all the games leading up to the final where
he was once again pivotal in the NSW victory taking 2/14. Unfortunately the team didn’t go so well in the One Day Competition, with NSW going down to SA and then WA with a six run loss in the final game. It wasn’t for lack of trying with our hometown hero top-scoring in the
finals with 88. He was the best batter in the T20 comp and 4th overall at the whole carnival. The player of the championship was awarded to Caleb by the umpires. Well done Caleb on an brilliant job representing God’s own country.
Tweed Coast Grommets Grab the Win!

LAST WEEK it was some great results for the Tweed Coast groms Dane Henry from Fingal Head, and Cali Barrett of Banora Point who took top honours at the eighth event of the 2018/19 Woolworths Surfer Grom Comps Series at the Spit on the Gold Coast. Competitors were greeted with glassy and clean waves and they really ripped in. Dane Henry dominated in the under 14 boys division, defeating Ty Richardson (Palm Beach, QLD), Xavier Bryce (Mona Vale, NSW) and Dom Thomas (Swansea, NSW) respectively in the final. Henry scored a 7.93 (out of a possible 10.00), backed up with a 6.17 for a combined heat total of 14.10 (out of a possible 20.00) to take the lead in the final four minutes of the heat – and managed to keep his lead until the final siren. Henry was ecstatic as he was chaired up the beach by friends and family. “I’m super happy with my result today,” said Henry. “It’s my first big win in a while so it feels great to be back on the podium again. Thanks to everyone involved, I’m stoked.” Cali Barrett won in the under 14 girls division, scoring a 7 combined with a 7.3 for a total heat score of 14.30 - defeating Jahly Stokes (Buddina, QLD), Coco Cairns (Tewantin, QLD) and Bonnie Hills (Mullaway, NSW) respectively in an exciting and close final. “The waves were pretty fun today,” said Barrett. “I want to thanks all my friends for being here today, and all of my sponsors.” Rico Haybittle from Burleigh Heads won the under 12 boys division in one of the most exciting heats of the day. Haybittle defeated Keenan Crisp (Ballina, NSW), Joel Emery (Angourie, NSW) and Xennex Holmstrom (Buddina, QLD) respectively in the final. Haybittle led most of the heat, and in
the last minute Crisp scored an 8.10 – but unfortunately the wave wasn’t enough to take the lead and Crisp was defeated by only 0.1 of a point. “I was pretty nervous when he got that wave,” said Haybittle. “I was so stoked when I heard the scores being read out and I found out that I won. I’m super happy.” Shyla Short (Austinmer, NSW) has claimed first place in the under 12 girls division, defeating the “ Flying Squirrel” Quincy Symonds of Tweed Heads, Ocea Curtis (Lennox Head, NSW) and Jordy Halford (Currumbin, QLD) respectively in the final. Symonds was leading for the majority of the heat, but in the dying minutes Short managed to score a 5.60 to take the lead by only 0.27 of a point and take out the final. Hunter Andersson (Moffat Beach, QLD) has won the under 10 boys division, defeating Hayden Danswan (Peregian Springs, QLD), Lucas Deffenti (Miami, QLD) and Guy Henry (Fingal Head, NSW) respectively. “I feel so happy,” said Andersson. “It was tough out there. It was good to get a couple of waves.” The groms revelled in the conditions and the Tweed area once again showed it strengths in the Juniors, with Henry, Barrett and Simmons leading the way. This was is on top of Kingscliff ’s Micah Margieson winning the Australian Junior title last month. Margieson was competing at the Hydralyte Pro Junior Series at North Stradbroke Island on the weekend, scoring a respectable semi-final result, which sets up well for the rest of the series. Margieson has plenty on his plate with a Surfing Australia development and training camp at the Surfing Australia Headquarters this week, all in preparation for the ISA World Titles coming up later this year. If that’s not enough, the young bloke is off to his first trip to “The Rock” in a few
weeks, getting to taste Hawaiian power and the experience of a lifetime. To say the young bloke is frothing would be an understatement. Life is pretty good! It seems the Tweed Coast keeps producing the goods!
Watch Out for the Blueys!!
Well something no one would want happened to former World Tour Surfer Mitch Crews last week at Cabarita. While surfing he flicked out of a wave, and must of had his mouth open, and what do you know, copped a bluebottle in the mouth! Crews said it was a painful experience he would not wish on anyone. The stingers have been particularly fierce this season, but copping one in the mouth is a little extreme. Crews reckoned he blew up like he had been beaten up, has some shortness of breath, but also had people there when he returned to shore immediately after being stung. There is no truth in the rumour this is a new lip enhancing process favoured by the nightclub types of Surfers Paradise. Nah, no bluebottle on my lips thanks!
