Passionate views shared at Uki Hall meeting

A PRIVATE CREMATION

By Jonathon Howard

       

Celestial Serpent addresses the audience at the Uki Hall.

No conflict of interest, Cr Byrnes

The Weekly spoke to Councillor Reece Byrnes ahead of the vote, who said he would not be supporting the Mayor’s rescission motion. He also responded to claims made by the Tweed Water Alliance that he had a conflict of interest because of his relationship with Mr Hallam. “I don’t have a conflict of interest,” he said.

Water debated at Uki hall meeting

The Uki Hall meeting began with the screening of a short film featuring the late Indigenous elder Bob Randall of the Yankunytjatjara people from Central Australia. Mr Randall took viewers through a confronting journey highlighting the horrific disruption of the Indigenous people’s way of life and the impact of white settlement, which caused the fragmentation of Indigenous traditions including their connection to country and family. Mr Randall spoke from his own experience as a member of the stolen generation and highlighted the need for all cultures to work towards understanding each other’s past, in order to have a future. “The purpose of the old ways was not to take more than you need,” Mr Randall said. “We’re all connected, we are all a part of the land and the land is sacred. “Everything was created in a perfect state, so become a part of it.” The first speaker invited to the microphone during the meeting was Greens pre-selected candidate for the Federal seat of Richmond Michael Lyon. “I care about making a difference to this area and I believe the cycle of water mining is madness,” he said. “If we can’t make a difference in this area, then it can’t be done. The time for change is now.” Tweed Water Alliance spokesperson Jeremy Tager said the context of water extraction was important. “We’ve been putting pressure on Cr Reece Byrnes to change his vote,” Mr Tager said. “And Jack Hallam does not appear willing to change his mind.”

Mr Tager said the fear for the future was a significant increase in water extraction operations across the Tweed Shire. “The only good news is that Council is taking steps to enforce water extraction that are operating unlawfully,” he said. Next to speak was Uki Indigenous elders Ydo Miles and Murray Drechsler who emphasised the need for people to continue to “fight” for equality and emphasised the precious nature of water. “We have to keep up the fight together as one,” Ydo said. “I protested for equal rights in the 1970s and I continue to do so today.” Murray (Mus) said there was a need to remind residents that water is precious. “It’s the water that binds us,” he said. “We destroy that water and we not only destroy our future, but we destroy our past. “This is our tribal land. This is our spiritual place, we need to maintain that.” Among the final speakers was Green candidate for the state seat of Lismore Sue Higginson, who has a background as a lawyer and extensive knowledge on the topic of conservation. “Unfortunately, it’s quite difficult to challenge them (water extraction applicants) based on the law,” she said. “It’s difficult to challenge in a court room and you need to find creative ways to challenge these applications.” Mrs Higginson said the laws as they currently stand around water were “a bit lame”. “The best way is to change the environmental plan in parliament,” she said. “The system is corrupt or so tightly wound up with vested interests and The Greens are the only political party that are promising to change the rules.” Mrs Higginson said she did not attend the meeting to campaign for the Greens Party, but she felt compelled to ask residents to consider their vote at the next election. “A vote for The Greens will mean change and if we are able to get three members in the lower house and create an upset across the electorate we can make real change,” she said.

A GROUP of around 60 residents gathered at the Uki Hall on Monday, October 1, for a film screening and community discussion about water extraction. The meeting was hosted by Uki local Celestial Serpent and his partner Tara, who invited residents to take part in a question and answer session. Discussions during the meeting centred around a rescission motion, lodged by Mayor Katie Milne, in an attempt to defer a decision on an application to extract 24 megalitres of water per year for bottling from 350 Rowlands Creek Road, which will be voted on by councillors at tonight’s Planning Committee Meeting in Murwillumbah (October 4). Mayor Milne will also move a motion to defer the decision until more information is obtained, relating to roads and a hydrogeology report that was completed for the applicant, former Labor Minister for Agriculture, Jack Hallam. The motion calls for a suitably qualified university review of Ecological Australia’s hydrogeology report and the response from NSW Water, as well as a report by another hydrogeologist, Professor Peter Cook, who questioned several assumptions made in the report by Ecological Australia. These included whether it was unlikely there was a connection between the aquifer below the bore and Rowlands Creek and whether the extraction of 24 megalitres a year would impact nearby bores and waterways. Professor Cook concluded the information in Ecological’s report was not sufficient to rule out a connection between the bore and Rowlands Creek. “The extent of connectivity between the fractured aquifer and the river is currently uncertain,” he said. “However, if there is a strong connection between the two, then the above analysis suggests that flow in Rowlands Creek will be reduced by the entire pumping volume (ie creek flow will reduce by 24ML/year) over a very short timeframe. “Even though the connectivity between the fractured rock aquifer and the creek may be low, the proximity of the pumping bore to the creek makes an impact on the creek a real possibility.” The Mayor also requested information relating to the costings of road damage is publicly released and an independent opinion is sought on the Rowlands Creek Road and Kyogle Road and Mitchell Street intersections. The motion also questioned whether Council has investigated “previously claimed discrepancies in the road width on the straight close to Uki” and to seek independent legal advice whether the public interest assessmenet meets Council and other legal obligations.

ABC challenges me everyday

I am puzzled regarding Mr Clifford’s comments regarding the ABC that it is basically a mindless, leftist mouthpiece. I watch the ABC regularly. I enjoy The Drum at 5.15pm which has a panel of highly informed guests who freely share their views on the topics of the day. On one recent program there was an ex ABC chairman who is close friends with John Howard and a staunch liberal supporter. There was also a woman who previously worked with him who expressed a view, which I found shocking. I also watch Insiders regularly, where again there are panel members of different sides of the political fence. I don’t believe that any particular side of politics is always right and I enjoy hearing alternative views and information that I may not hear elsewhere. Landline, One on One, Ahn’s Brush with Fame and Compass are programs which among many others on the ABC also give invaluable insights into the human condition. I watch the ABC because I want to hear all sides of an issue. I want to understand what people are thinking, even when I don’t agree with them. I want to be challenged in my own attitudes. Some of our media outlets have a definite right wing bias, which I find worrisome. A healthy democracy depends upon information sources which are factual and unbiased. This is where the ABC comes into its own. Susan Bernardo, Tweed Heads South

falsely claiming that the ABC lacks impartiality. He then makes the extraordinary and totally unsubstantiated claim that the ABC, our public schools, the nation’s public universities and many print and media outlets peddle “radical leftist politics”. He goes on to argue that ABC programs, with a few exceptions, are “lamentable”, that the national broadcaster is an “unrepresentative echo chamber of political correctness” and a “state-sponsored conservative-free zone”. Lawrence has obviously been drinking from a poisoned News Corp trough. Every one of his statements can be, and should be, challenged. Putting aside his slur against public schools and our nation’s leading universities, one only has to watch the ABC on a Monday night to experience high quality investigative journalism. One only has to watch high quality Australia drama such as “Mystery Road” to see that the national broadcaster is fulfilling its charter. We only need to consider the valuable service that local ABC radio stations play in highlighting regional issues and assuming a vital communications role in times of emergency. We have in our ABC one of the world’s finest media organisations. It even has a Media Watch program on Monday nights that publicly applies a blowtorch to its own operations. What other media outlet does that? One has to agree that ABC programmers in recent years have put to air some low quality and cringe-worthy products (and endless repeats of British nonsense) but most of us realise that this is due to funding cuts. Australia needs a publicly-funded national broadcaster that is fiercely independent and we have one in Our ABC. We need to defend it and help it flourish. Neville Jennings, Murwillumbah

Water extraction untruths

The Tweed’s National Party Councilors (Cr) bizarre attack against council regarding its addressing the unlawful parts of the operations of a water mining business is made even more bizarre when they warn the actions of council are similar to those that saw a council sacked. Such a claim is a most blatant untruth considering the facts of the inquiry into council found a substantial slush fund of developer and big business dollars had been set up to purchase a developer compliant group of Crs.

Hence, the similarities could not be more extreme and further from the truth. I n d e e d , wh at i s ex t re m e ly concerning is that we have Crs that are promoting spin to support the unlawful parts of water mining operations in our shire with the message to operators, its alright mate to breach conditions of approval and licence requirements. So do these Crs review the extensive documented evidence of the lawlessness of this industry and choose to ignore the requirements of elected representatives to act within the law, and are they advocating a lawless society. Lindy Smith, Tweed Heads

Call for tsunami of change

When you overheat an egg it cracks. If you overheat the planet with fossil fuel emissions, you get earthquakes and tsunamis. Strong, immediate action on climate change is urgently needed to stop destruction of the planet and its citizens. However, both major parties are selling out our children’s futures to fossil fuel multinationals. We know the Liberal National Party won’t withdraw support for the 455,000 hectares of coal mining in the Galilee Basin, but my family is disgusted in how Labor skirts around the Adani issue by saying they will only withdraw support for the coal mine if it doesn’t stack up environmentally or economically. The foreign-owned Adani mine obviously fails on both counts. The only hope of stopping it is if Labor withdraws support. I feel completely let down by Labor’s two-faced tactics and want them replaced by the Greens. Both Labor and the LNP have accepted enormous donations from fossil fuel companies and foreign investors [see link https:// w w w. m a r ke t fo r c e s. o r g . a u / politicaldonations/ ]. The Adani mine has the potential to destroy the Great Barrier Reef. Tw e e d L ab o r C o u n c i l l o r Reece Byrnes has voted with the conservatives in favour of water mining at Uki. Previously Labor backflipped, allowing a men’s shed to be constructed at the Black Rocks sports field even though the opinion of leading koala expert Dr Steve Phillips was that there is strong likelihood of a significant impact on the Pottsville Wetlands – Black Rocks local koala population if the men’s shed proceeded. Dave Norris, Pottsville

Have your say on increased Pottsville traffic

The sand quarry south of Pottsville has lodged an development application to triple vehicle movements to and from the site. This would allow 240 vehicle movements in and out of the site on weekdays over a 10 hour period and 120 movements on Saturdays. That is, on average, one vehicle movement every two and a half minutes. Vehicles up to the size of a 19-metre truck and dog trailer operate from the site, and the recommendation of the DA traffic assessment is that all heavy vehicles are to access and egress the site from the Cudgera Creek Road (linking Pottsville to the highway) and Pottsville Mooball Road intersection. Greens Mayor Katie Milne raised a motion on July 5, 2018, which resulted in the Tweed Shire Councillors voting to oppose the proposal. Consequently the NSW Department of Planning has required that an independent assessor (the Independent Planning Commission) must decide if it is to go ahead. Roads and Maritime Services raised the issue that the Traffic Impact Assessment (TIA) for the proposal did not consider the proposed increase in truck movements in the context of future traffic conditions over a 10 year horizon. The TIA should have considered background traffic growth along the identified transport route and the cumulative impact of planned developments in the subject area. (Note: The future Dunloe Urban Land Release is proposed to house 6,000 people in the land adjacent to the sand quarry.) The DA is currently on public exhibition and the NSW Department of Planning is currently calling for submissions from concerned citizens, to be lodged on or before October 11, 2018. Information relating to the proposal and details on how to lodge a submission are available at the following link: http://majorprojects. p l a n n i n g . n sw. g ov. a u / i n d ex . pl?action=view_job&job_id=8619 .

Do we really want ‘city status’

While the political and community bickering over the proposed site of the new Tweed Hospital continues, there are three major issues the

residents of Kingscliff and the Tweed should seriously consider. First; do Kingscliff residents really want their seaside village to become a regional city the size of Bathurst or Orange, because that’s what will happen if the hospital and all the accompanying ancillary services come to Kingscliff. To u r i s m a n d m o s t o f t h e independent and boutique businesses will be dead. Fast food and national retail will be dominate. The majority of the most innovative proposals for the foreshore and shopping precinct detailed in the Kingscliff Locality Plan, recently the subject of unprecedented community consultation, will be rendered obsolete. Second; the current NSW budget contains only funding for the upgrade of the current hospital at Tweed Heads. Nothing to build a new hospital. Finally; as many contributors to these pages have noted, the imposed Kingscliff site has nothing to do with it being the best place for a new hospital. It may be well above the worstcase flood scenario but past floods have, and future floods will, prevent almost all access. The only reason for the decision is to free up prime agricultural land which National Party acolytes have been land-banking for decades for future residential development, and to establish a legal precedent for developers to contest the Kingscliff three-storey height limit. Jeremy Cornford, Kingscliff

Frydenberg on banking Royal commission beggars belife

When he was Environment Minister, Josh Frydenberg voted repeatedly against holding a Banking Royal Commission. He and his colleagues, insisted that it was unnecessary and that anyway, ASIC would take care of any breaches.. Now that he is the Treasurer he launches into an almost hysterical, tirade of criticisms of the banks and their practices.. Does he have such a short memory? If so we must all beware of believing any promises he may make as Treasurer.

Call for baiting as wild dogs devastate alpaca stud A WILD dog, possibly a dingo cross, or a domestic dog, may have been responsible for the devastation of a local alpaca stud at Palmvale, killing three breeding alpaca males and prompting renewed calls from farmers to address the rising wild dog issue. Longueville Alpaca Stud breeds a unique black variety of alpaca and the owners were devastated to find their three breeding males mutilated and killed on Thursday, September 25. Liz Coles and Rosemary Eva have owned the alpaca stud for 23 years and like many local farmers, they are passionate about their animals. However, the recent rise in wild dog presence around Palmvale has led to increasing concerns that more needs to be done through baiting programs. Liz and Rosemary are working with Local Land Services to launch a baiting program as well as employing a local dog tracker to assist. “The dog tracker found some fur and some scat, but we think it may have been one big dog,” Liz said. “We’re absolutely devastated by the impact of these wild dogs. “They were our only breeding males, and this has resulted in the loss of a complete genetic breeding program which cannot be replicated.” Longueville Park was the first farm to introduce alpacas to the Tweed Valley in 1996 and have had an extremely successful breeding program, resulting in many show

presentations at regional and national levels. “It is well known that wild dogs are on the increase and they are causing devastation to the livestock and native animals,” Rosemary said. “There needs to be an all-out campaign to eradicate these animals as it’s costing farming industries.” Liz and Rosemary said despite installing dog-proof fencing, the wild dogs have still managed to breach the barriers and destroy valuable livestock. The owners have also lodged a report with Tweed Police to ensure they are aware, as well as Local Land Services who intend to commence a baiting program. “The fear is the wild dogs may also return to the area and landowners should be aware,” Rosemary said. To add insult to injury, Longueville Park was battered by a hail storm on Saturday, September 29, with major damage to their house roof, the alpaca shed and other parts of the farm. “We had the SES over to help with tarps to keep the property watertight, they were a huge help,” Liz said. “We’re really just having one of those weeks. “First the wild dog attacks and then the storm, but we will get through this.” Mapping of wild dog distribution by the NSW DPI in 2016 reveals a spread of wild dogs into the Tweed Coast and eastern portions of the Tweed Valley, which were absent from wild dogs in 2009.

Three black alpacas were mutilated by a wild dog at Palmvale last week.

Meanwhile, North Coast Local Land Services (LLS) have recently outlined a North Coast Regional Strategic Pest Animal Management Plan for a more strategic approach to managing pests on the North Coast. The Plan outlines how Government, industry and the community can work together and share the responsibility to eradicate, contain or manage pest animals in terrestrial and freshwater aquatic environments across the region. LLS’ Team Leader Invasive Species Dean Chamberlain, said the plan supports regional implementation of the NSW Biosecurity Act 2015 and identifies regional priorities for pest animal management. “An important feature of the new strategic approach is to outline how Government agencies, community groups and individual landholders will share responsibility and work together across land tenures to

prevent, eradicate, contain and manage the impacts of pest animals,” he said. “Pest animals pay little regard to property boundaries therefore effective control requires us to work together. “All community members have a general biosecurity duty to prevent, minimise or eliminate any biosecurity risk. “The general biosecurity duty is a principle that can be used by the community, landholders, Government and industry to encourage or in some cases enforce best practice behaviours to achieve effective pest animal management.” According to LLS wild dogs can operate individually, in small groups or as packs. “They can be extremely cunning which can make control very difficult,” LLS said.

“Poisoning with 1080 baits, trapping with soft jaw leg hold traps and shooting are effective control tools particularly when they are part of an integrated control approach. “Group control across several holdings will achieve the best results.” LLS also undertakes tracking of wild dogs and monitoring. “ N or th C oa s t L oc a l L a nd Services partners with other NSW Government agencies, industry bodies and wild dog control groups using ground and aerial baits, trapping, GPS tracking using collars and monitoring with motion cameras,” LLS said. The North Coast Regional Strategic Pest Animal Management Plan is available on the Local Land Services website https://www.lls. nsw.gov.au/pestplan.

Child burnt by sand-covered fire By Jo Kennett

THE FAR North Coast Rural Fire Service has issued a warning after a threeyear-old boy suffered serious burns to his feet after stepping on a fire that had been covered with sand. The accident happened at a popular fishing spot on the banks of Cudgera Creek near Koala Beach on Monday, September 17. Katrina Middleton took her three-year-old son Ollie down to the creek to have a look and “count the fish”. When they got to the creek bank there was a man fishing and Ollie jumped straight out of the pram. “He suddenly started screaming and I thought maybe he’s stood on a bindii but then I looked and saw smoke coming out of the ground,” Ms Middleton said. “You couldn’t even see that there had been a fire there because it had been covered up with sand or something. “We grabbed him and put his feet straight into the creek then his skin started wrinkling up on top and he was screaming hysterically.” Damien Sager had just been to get some bait and was walking back to join his brother Navada on the creek bank when he heard Ollie screaming and rushed to help. “Kat had to walk away to call 000 because he was screaming so loud,” Damien said. “It was really hard to keep his feet in the water because he was in so much pain he was thrashing around.” Ms Middleton said she tried to calm Ollie down while they waited for the ambulance which arrived 20 minutes later. “He was screaming, crying and shaking in shock the whole time,” she said. “I tried to calm him and let him know the ambulance were on their way as well as ask him questions about the burns so I could tell the ambulance officers. “They gave him pain relief but he was still hysterical and they didn’t know what to do. “Afterwards they found out he is one of the tiny minority of people that pain medication has no effect on.” Mr Sager said they couldn’t even see a fire had been there. “Someone had obviously tried to put it out but they had covered it up and that just kept it burning,” she said. “People just don’t know how to put a fire out - they think it’s out but it’s still burning under the sand and then the wind blows the sand off. “I did think about calling in firefighters to put out - I put 30 or 40 buckets of water but it was really windy and it kept flaring up. “Someone has brought a bucket down now but there has been a fire lit here every day for the last few days and they still aren’t being put out properly.” Ollie stayed overnight at The Tweed Hospital and Ms Middleton said the burns were so deep that doctors are still worried he might lose some toes. “The most horrific part was when we had to take him to the paediatrics unit at the Gold Coast University Hospital the next day,” Ms Middleton said. “They had to cut a lot of the skin away because of the dangers of infection but he was just hysterical the whole time.

“The first time I cried was when I saw his foot that day. I am seven months pregnant and I started throwing up all the time after that - I think it’s just from the stress.” Ms Middleton said Ollie had been through four lots of surgery. “At this stage they are saying the blood flow is good and he should be able to grow the skin back himself and keep his toes though if they get infected they might still have to be amputated,” she said. “The recovery has been tough. “He wakes usually around 3am crying uncontrollably, sweating and eyes rolling back in pain totally incoherent of what is going on and in need of more medication.” Ms Middleton said she just wanted people to be aware that covering a fire with sand doesn’t put it out. “I want people to be aware that sand doesn’t extinguish fires - it retains the heat longer and extends the life of the fire,” she said. “You need to put it out with water. Damien put the fire out properly afterwards and who knows, he could have saved Pottsville from a big bushfire or saved someone else being burnt. “A friend posted photos of Ollie’s feet on social media and there were a lot of comments from people saying how common it was.” Manager of RFS Far North Coast Superintendent David Cook said fires should not be lit in these sorts of areas. “All fires in the open require a fire a permit and 24 hours’ notice,” Supt Cook told The Weekly. “People can be charged with Careless Reckless Misuse of Fire if they allow a fire to escape and that can be by covering it with sand and not extinguishing it properly - we get that happening every year. “Fires in the open should always be extinguished with water not covered up because we get these serious injuries.” Ms Middleton, who recently moved to the area from Sydney, said she was really happy with the community support. “Ollie’s been through a lot of pain and it’s been hard on us all,” she said. “The community has been so supportive that has been fantastic but I just want people to know the repercussions and damage that can happen to not only people but also with bushfires.”

Another dam milestone Council has called Expressions of Interest for an independent consultant to prepare the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the proposed project to raise the wall of Clarrie Hall Dam. Expressions close at 4pm on Wednesday 17 October 2018. Council is seeking to shortlist tenderers to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the project, which considers and addresses all issues raised in the Secretary’s Environmental Assessment Requirements (SEARs). The SEARs are based on investigations done to date and the requirements of relevant government agencies. Investigations completed or well advanced include biodiversity, cultural heritage, flooding and hydrology and an environmental flows assessments. It will take 18 months to two years to complete the EIS, before it goes on public exhibition in early 2020. Meanwhile, Council has purchased all or part of nine of the properties it needs to raise the wall of the dam and has acceptances of offers on two more. It is Council’s intention to demolish all houses on the properties purchased to protect water quality by limiting human activities in the catchment. Demolition of the first batch of houses purchased began last week.

Riversdale Boulevard, the site of the first Community Planting Day to contribute to improving the health of the Western Drainage Scheme.

Be part of the Banora drain solution Tweed residents are urged to connect with their environment this Saturday (6 October) by coming along to the first Community Planting Day, designed to contribute to the health of the Banora Point Western Drainage Scheme. After meeting on the pathway at 74 Riversdale Boulevard, Banora Point at 9am, residents will get hands-on experience in tasks that will help improve the water quality of this system, which also acts as habitat for the endangered Comb-crested Jacana, in the heart of this large residential area. Council has engaged Conservation Volunteers Australia (CVA) to work with the community to build community ownership of the drainage scheme and ‘restore it to a more healthy state’ as resolved by Council at its meeting of October 2017. In a budget review in November 2017, Council voted to inject more than $750,000 into restoring the health of this significant drainage system by undertaking structural changes to remove shallow points in the waterway, increase weed removal, extend the floating reed bed system and involve the community in revegetation. CVA has met with the Banora Point Residents Association and will be working with the community to raise awareness and understanding of the role of the drainage system, restore degraded areas and improve water catchment values through weed removal and native revegetation of buffer areas. On Saturday, the community can help plant native vegetation, undertake water bug and bird surveys and water testing. As well, CVA will provide tips on the best plants for your back yard and how to use water wisely.

“Everything nearby residents do in their own backyards literally can have a flow-on effect in the drainage system, especially feeding the nutrient load that feeds the noxious weed species and reduces the dissolved oxygen levels in the water,” Manager Water and Wastewater Danny Rose said. “Only Let Rain Down the Drain is CVA’s promotional banner for Saturday’s activities, which underpins many of the complex issues Council has in managing this drainage system.” Project Officer Shae Kolk added to the call for action saying: “We’re building up a picture of the day-to-day issues you are seeing around the area, but we want to hear more. We’re inviting you to drop in and tell us your observations of the drainage system and hopefully learn a thing or two along the way by joining in the activities on offer.” Community Connect days will be held every week from 6 October to 14 December 2018, restarting on 11 January 2019. All up, 25 Community Connection days have been scheduled to June 2019 at sites along the drainage system at Lake Kimberley, Darlington Drive, Riversdale Boulevard, Fraser Drive and Port Drive. All Community Connect days will include hand-weeding activities, rubbish clean-up and many will include small cluster plantings of approved native species. Residents are asked to dress to get their hands dirty, remembering their hat, gloves, sunscreen and sunglasses. Refreshments will be provided to maintain energy levels. To assist catering needs, please nominate to attend by telephoning Shae Kolk on 0475 973 888 or emailing her at skolk@cva.org.au

Some of the 44 donated bikes which will be back on the road, thanks to community generosity.

You’re wheelie generous! Forty-four reCycled bikes are being donated to those in need of two good wheels to get to work, school or out and about on our great bike paths by the not-for-profit Tweed Family Centre as a celebration of NSW Bike Week. The bikes were donated by the community and serviced by five Tweed bike shops free of charge to get them back on the road. Transport NSW hosts Bike Week every year to encourage people to use pedal power on shorter trips and gain the benefit of free travel plus improved health and well-being. The bike shops who joined the cause were Kingscliff Cycle Centre, South Tweed Supercycle, Coast Cyclery, Border Bikes and Cycle Centre Murwillumbah.

Funding to repair South Murwillumbah Flood Levee

The South Murwillumbah levee at the river’s edge was severely damaged in the March 2017 flood.

Council has received $3.75 million from the State and Federal Government’s Natural Disaster Relief and Recovery Arrangements (NDRRA) to repair the South Murwillumbah Flood Levee. This, together with the replacement of Byrrill Creek Bridge at a cost of $4.35 million and due to start this week, are the two largest flood repair projects from the March 2017 flood. The start of works on both projects signals the last important efforts to repair flood damage to Council road, bridge and flood infrastructure. On the roads, Council contractors are nearing completion of the final major works. Clothiers Creek Road opened to two-way traffic last week, Cudgera Creek Road opened the week before and the last three landslips on Urliup Road are on track to be completed by the end of the month. Some minor works will continue to the end of the year. Manager Roads and Stormwater Danny Rose said securing NDRRA funding to repair the South Murwillumbah Flood Levee was one of the last key steps in the Tweed’s flood recovery efforts. “We are now very much into the home straight and all before applications for disaster funding close,” Mr Rose said.

Living and Loving the Tweed

“This is an amazing achievement and I would like to thank the state agencies for working so well with us to fund the bulk of repairs to our roads, bridges and flood infrastructure.” South Murwillumbah was one of the hardest hit areas in the March 2017 flood, sustaining widespread damage and losses to both businesses and homes. Flooding rapidly cuts road access to the area and represents a significant risk to both life and property. After the flood, Council installed a temporary emergency repair to reinstate the levee crest but a more permanent solution was required as the levee does offer some protection to the community in minor flood events. Repairs to the flood levee will include stabilisation of the riverbank, which supports the levee, using rock revetment. NSW Public Works Advisory has been engaged to design and manage the levee repair and design work is well underway. The work will be undertaken by contractors and take several months to complete. Other programs designed to reduce the flood risk across South Murwillumbah include the voluntary house purchasing schemes and the ground-breaking $3 million industrial land swap – both partly funded by the State Government.

Tell us your thoughts on the draft Homelessness Policy An updated version of the draft Homelessness Policy is now on exhibition for public comment until 30 October 2018, following an extensive review. The new draft policy clearly outlines local government’s role to address this social issue and its intended partnership approach. Tweed Shire Council became one of the first councils in NSW to introduce a policy for homelessness in 2015, demonstrating a commitment to a significant social issue impacting the Tweed community. Council participated in a recent targeted intervention at a site in Coral Street, Tweed Heads aimed at supporting long-term chronic rough sleepers. Participants in the collective impact approach included: FACS Housing; NSW Police; North Coast Community Mental Health; North Coast Drug and Alcohol Service; various Council departments; Qld Department of Housing; Specialist Homelessness Services NSW and Qld; and St Vincent de Paul – Fred’s Place. This targeted partnership included some successful outcomes: firstly engaging with the long term rough sleepers; providing support to determine their eligibility for priority housing; identification support and reunification with family. The partnership

occurred over a three-month period and also relied on the patience and goodwill of neighbours. Manager Community and Cultural Service, Robyn Grigg, said Council is committed to preventing and reducing homelessness and ensuring homeless people are treated respectfully and appropriately and are not discriminated against on the basis of their homeless status. “As we saw at Coral Street, Council works in partnership with the housing and homelessness sector and other tiers of government who are committed to a collaborative approach with the aim of shifting the trajectory for people experiencing homelessness or at risk of experiencing homelessness,” Ms Grigg said. “It is important to remember that the State and Federal Governments are service providers and funders in the housing and homelessness space and Council plays an advocacy, education and facilitation role.” The draft policy covers all Council services, in particular: access to Council services and facilities, interacting with homeless people in public places, Council’s regulatory activities, strategic land use planning and community development.

In 2011, there were 308 people recorded in the Census by the Australian Bureau of Statistics as experiencing homelessness in the Tweed. In 2016, this had increased to 444 people identified as experiencing homelessness. Of particular concern is an increase in the rate of primary homelessness from 14 per cent in 2011 to 48 per cent in 2016. Primary homelessness includes people without conventional accommodation, such as living on the streets, sleeping in cars, deserted buildings etc.

Changes in the draft policy include: updates to statistics and superseded documents; revised actions and consideration of implementation into the Community Development Strategy with clear roles, responsibilities and resources; Affordable Housing section will revert to the Affordable, Attainable and Appropriate Housing Policy; alignment of the Homelessness Policy review process with Council’s timeline for review of organisational policies; and a clear monitoring and evaluation framework.

Have your say on the great outdoors

Help Council improve our community’s recreational spaces by telling us your thoughts on the draft Open Space Strategy.

Do you love the great outdoors? Have your say on the Draft Open Space Strategy and help Council improve our community’s outdoor recreational spaces. Manager Recreation Services, Stewart Brawley, said our beautiful natural environment, unique recreational spaces, neighbourhood playgrounds and diverse parklands are the essence of why we all love to live in the Tweed. “These are the places we go to picnic with our family, play sport, explore with our children, ride our bicycles, go fishing, socialise, exercise the dog and simply enjoy nature,” Mr Brawley said. The Open Space Strategy will guide how Council manages, enhances and protects our parks, foreshores, sports fields, natural areas, pathways, trails and streetscapes over the next 10 years. The draft version of the Open Space Strategy is now on public exhibition and Council needs your input to help ensure it meets the needs of the community. “Based on previous feedback from the community, we’ve developed a list of important projects, upgrades and actions needed for local areas across the Tweed and we need your help to

prioritise these projects. We want to know what is most important to you and your local community,” Mr Brawley said. “We will be using this feedback to roll out 10 years’ of open space projects including new playgrounds, new sports fields, new trails and pathways, access improvements and better protection and enhancement of environmentally and culturally significant areas. “So it’s important we hear from as many people as possible – we are encouraging everyone to get involved.” A series of Community Conversations will be held across the Tweed during October and November. Please note that the events at Burringbar, Stokers Siding, Crabbes Creek and Uki will also feature Community Conversations about the Rail Trail. Uki will also have information presented on the raising of Clarrie Hall Dam. See advertisement below for details. Seats are limited.

All aboard for a successful rail trail The Northern Rivers Rail Trail has all the ingredients for success. That was the verdict of President of Rail Trails Australia Damian McCrohan when he visited Council’s Rail Trail Project Team recently to provide his insights on how to build a successful rail trail. “Most of the experience is the surface. A hard, firm, smooth surface … that’s the key,” Mr McCrohan said. The proposed surface for the first stage of the trail from Murwillumbah to Crabbes Creek is asphalt concrete from Murwillumbah Railway Station to the Tweed Regional Gallery and through the villages of Stokers Siding, Burringbar and Mooball and a fine gravel surface elsewhere. Mr McCrohan said Council and its partners had done ‘fantastically well’ over the past 2 ½ years to be on the brink of

releasing an Expression of Interest to shortlist tenderers to design and build the first 24 kilometres of a final 134-kilometre trail from Murwillumbah to Casino. Mr McCrohan also advised that in most cases the biggest users of rail trails were local people. “Rail trails have to be locally driven – it doesn’t work from the outside. And while rail trails are free to use, the usage determines the benefits to the community. They are a great thing for the health and wellbeing of a town,” he said. “The Tweed trail will have no trouble attracting patronage. You’ve got all the elements needed to make a successful rail trail. You’ve got great scenery here and can deliver a great experience. “It’s really important to be able to get a good coffee, sandwich and fill your water bottle.”

Rail Trail Project team members (from left) Alex Manning, Rail Trail Australia President Damian McCrohan, Iain Lonsdale and Nicolas Offroy discuss the progress of the first stage of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail.

French couple hoping for last minute reprieve

Sandrine Mendy and Damien Pigot have been told to leave the country by October 12

“It’s a situation we can’t control. It should be simple. I try not to get too stressed,” she said. “We have really good community and customer support and we’ve really tried to give back to the community. “We want them to make a good decision and we think we deserve it.” According to their petition to the minister Mr Pigot and Ms Mendy were part of the Mud Army during the Brisbane flood in 2010, gave accommodation to stranded people during the Murwillumbah flood in 2017, employed local youth, trained Indigenous people for work experience and gave food to The Family Centre. They have also been involved in numerous cultural and food events. Mr Pigot said they could go to the federal court to fight the decision but had decided not to. “It’s going to cost too much and cause too much stress and we would also lose business,” he said.

How Much Can a Koala Bear?

In My Humble Opinion Vincent Selleck

Choosing solar power is not just about saving money.

Every time someone puts solar panels on their roof, less coal is burnt. Less carbon is released into our atmosphere and less habitat is destroyed. Yes, it will also save you money on your power bill, but don't think that is the only reason for doing something. When money becomes the only reason for doing things, Prime Ministers are knifed in the back for trying to link emission targets to power reliability and prices. More koala food trees are bulldozed and burnt and these iconic Australian animals will be extinct by 2050. Is that a world you want to live in? September is Save the Koala Month and at 888 Solar Tek we are planting more koala food trees. We live on 20 acres of forest at Federal and just planted another 100 tallowwood and swamp mahogany trees to enlarge a koala corridor from Stoney Creek to the ridge. We are also donating $100 from every solar sale this month to Bangalow Koalas to help coordinate and plant more koala food corridors in the hinterland from Federal to Bangalow. Find out how you can help at www.bangalowkoalas.com.au or call Linda Sparrow on 0411 491 991. You do not have to throw away your old solar system to buy a new one. This just creates more waste and burns more coal somewhere. New solar technology allows old solar panels to work with new solar panel regardless of size or voltage. We recommend paying a little bit more to get a SolarEdge system with panel optimisation that allows old and new panels to be mixed for more energy production and less waste. SolarEdge optimisers have a 25 year warranty and this month we are also providing a free warranty upgrade to 20 years for SolarEdge inverters as well.

When governments are puppets to fossil fuel corporations and neo-liberalism has diseased all their heads, we have to take power into our own hands. Let's save our koalas and put more solar on our roofs.

“I already went through depression over this in 2016 - I could barely cook without crying. “Stress is the worst thing for the body and the mind. “You have one body and at the end of the day you have to care for it.” Mr Pigot said they were told they didn’t meet the criteria but they don’t understand why. “A few years ago money from visas was the second or third highest source of income for the government after the mining industry,” he said. “It’s just a big money-making thing and it’s so wrong. “Now I just try not to stress about it, just to go with the flow but it’s been really hard because Australia is our home now.” The Weekly has contacted the Minister for Immigration for comment. The petition can be signed at Change. org and put 3sea into the search tab.

A CRITICAL incident investigation has been launched into a crash that claimed the life of 22-year-old Murwillumbah local Tyrone Adams (pictured below). The crash occurred on the Pacific Highway at Tweed Heads on Thursday, September 27, following a police chase that police said had been terminated. Police had spotted a Mazda hatch travelling above the speed limit on the Pacific Motorway by police officers just before 9.30pm. The officers attempted to pursue the car for a short time, but said they terminated the pursuit due to the manner of driving. Police later found the Mazda had left the road and crashed into a tree. The driver sustained significant injuries and was taken to The Tweed Hospital where he later died. No other vehicles were involved in the crash. A critical incident team comprising officers from an independent Police District will investigate the circumstances surrounding the crash. The investigation will be subject to an independent review. Police are urging anyone with information in relation to this incident to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or use the Crime Stoppers online reporting page: https://nsw. crimestoppers.com.au/

SolarEdge optimizers ensure every panel operates separately to prevent energy loss to whole strings of panels when one is shaded or soiled.

Traditional String Inverter

SolarEdge is the best inverter technology available. It can produce up to 25% more power than normal string inverters. With 25 year warranties Solar Edge is competively priced but offers significant life time savings. Here are the advantages available with SolarEdge: > Buy once to last a lifetime. 25 year inverter warranties available.

Solar Edge Inverter with Panel level optimisation

> More power for longer. Every solar panel losses power as it ages at different rates. SolarEdge allows each panel to give its best all the time and not be dragged down by weaker panels in a string. > Superior safety with SafeDC. If the inverter is shut down or there is a short circuit on the roof, the Solar Edge optimizers shut down the power immediately. No fire or electrocution risk. > Install more panels anytime on any roof angle. SolarEdge optimizers allow different types of panels to go anywhere and face any direction on the same inverter. Traditional string inverters do not allow new panels to go with old or face different directions.

By Jo Kennett A FRENCH couple who run a popular business in South Tweed say they have been told they have until October 12 to leave the country but still have hope of a last minute reprieve. Owner of South Tweed business 3 Sea Catering Damien Pigot said he has nearly 1,000 signatures on a petition to be lodged with the Minister for Immigration David Coleman, in a last-ditch attempt to overturn the Department’s ruling against them. “We were supposed to be out of the country by today but now we have a bit of a reprieve so we have no stock and we can’t do much with the business when we don’t know what’s happening,” Mr Pigot, who has lived in Australia for fifteen years, said. “Now it’s supposed to be our last week so we don’t know whether to get stock in or not as we might have to throw it out which is why we need to know this week. “Before we could organise things because there was hope but now we just don’t know.” Mr Pigot said that if they didn’t get a visa this week they would have six days to sell everything and leave the country. “We will have six days to sell all our shop gear and everything in our home and buy plane tickets,” he said. “The government has kept changing the rules over the years and it’s like we’ve been misled by the immigration department. “There are many ways to get visas and we have tried to do the right thing, to do it legally, but it doesn’t seem to work if you are honest.” His partner Sandrine Mendy said it had been like that for the last five years but now it was reaching the end.

Shadow Police Minister visits Tweed Understaffing leaving paedophiles unmonitored says police union By Jo Kennett

By Jo Kennett

Shadow Police Minister met with Labor candidate for Tweed Craig Elliot in Tweed.

Mr Zangari said there were questions to be asked about Allianz Stadium being knocked down just before the election. “There are questions to be asked about the fast-tracking of approvals for this demolition,” he said. “The bottom line is that this government’s Report on Government Services indicated the per capita spend in NSW on police was the lowest in the country. “Then you throw into the mix a budget that only gave us 100 extra police when we needed an extra 500 and they have all this money from privatising and selling assets.” Mr Zangari said the Tweed “deserves its fair share”. “We have new station but what’s the point when we don’t have the police we need to staff it,” he said. “People deserve to feel they can walk the streets in the Tweed Shire and feel safe.” Geoff Provest said that Labor was playing politics with serious matters. “Recent crime events have had nothing to do with how many police are in the Tweed, that suggestion is repugnant,” he told The Weekly. “Crime in the Tweed is actually seeing a downward trend due to the fantastic work done by local police, and the crime rate is far lower than when Labor was in Government. “If the Shadow Police Minister and the candidate, a former police officer, can’t read the publicly available crime statistics then the community can have no confidence in a future Labor Government.”

A POLICE Association of NSW (PANSW) spokesperson says that a lack of police resources is leaving the Northern Region’s children at risk, with known child sex offenders going unmonitored for extended periods of time - and hundreds lost from the system entirely. The association has called for an urgent increase in the number of police to investigate child sex offences and additional police to monitor people on the child protection register of convicted child sex offenders living in the community. PANSW Tweed/Byron Branch Chairperson Darren McCaughey said that the chronic understaffing was putting children in the area at serious risk of harm. “We know there are over 4,000 offenders on the Child Protection Register statewide, and around 1,060 in our region, but only a fraction of those are monitored regularly due to the fact that we simply don’t have enough police to do the job,” Mr McCaughey said. “We know we need a ratio of one dedicated full-time officer to every 30 offenders to be able to proactively manage paedophiles on the list. “The legislation in this area is strong. Police have the powers to actively monitor and stop these offenders targeting our children, but we just don’t have the resources to do it properly.” The Northern Region is extends from Brisbane Water in the south, to the Hunter Valley in the west and north to the Queensland border. According to NSW Police figures, PANSW said the reoffending rate within four years is 46 per cent and there are 201 people on the NSW Child Protection Register whose whereabouts are unknown. Mr McCaughey said that monitoring was being done on an ad hoc basis due to understaffing. “At the moment, responsibility to monitor those on the child protection register falls to local police, who are already stretched to capacity,” Mr McCaughey said. “It is undertaken on a part-time, ad-hoc basis while conducting other serious investigations. “The officers who do this work day in and day out are stretched to capacity, often with one or two officers managing in excess of 100 convicted offenders.”

The association said that 150 dedicated Detectives are required in Police Area Commands and Police Districts, 12 additional Detectives are required in the Central Child Protection Registry, 67 additional Detectives are required in Child Abuse Units, 16 additional Detectives are required in the Child Exploitation Internet Unit to target online predators and seven additional surveillance operatives are required. Shadow Police Minister Guy Zangari visited the Tweed on October 2 and said the NSW Police Minister needed to give an explanation. “How is this the case?” he said. “How could this have occurred when the government has acknowledged there are not enough police across the state. “They have rivers of gold coming in with 50 billion dollars of assets being sold and they are not putting policing as a priority.” Former police officer and NSW Labor candidate for Tweed Craig Elliot said that the media release about the paedophile situation showed how desperate police really are. “If there are not enough police to monitor people who pose a potential risk to our community - young families or just the general community - it comes down to priorities.” Mr Zangari said the Tweed Shire was a unique region. “We’re on the border and it’s a great place to live and a great place to visit,” he said. “With that comes the extra responsibilities that police have and the transient population and you throw on that a register that needs to be staffed to keep people and particularly children safe and the government has some serious questions to answer.” Mr McCaughey said that the detectives do “amazing and disturbing work arresting and prosecuting paedophiles” but more officers were needed to deal with the offenders. “It’s not an either/or situation,” he said. “We need more police to lock up the paedophiles, but every conviction means another person on the Child Protection Register, so we also need police in our commands and districts to monitor them in our communities,” he said. “This area of policing has been under resourced for years. “Past decisions have left our children vulnerable and it’s time to resource these squads and our districts and commands so we can keep our children safe.”

SHADOW POLICE Minister Guy Zangari visited the Tweed Shire on Tuesday, October 2, and joined local NSW Labor candidate Craig Elliot in condemning the Berejiklian Government “for having the wrong priorities in committing $2.2 billion for Sydney stadiums” over funding for more police officers in regional areas. “They are trying to knock down these stadiums when they should be putting money into making sure the community is safe,” he told The Weekly. “People should be able to walk around freely and know they are protected but the frontline officers in the regions, as Craig knows, are getting thinner and thinner.” Mr Zangari said there was no doubt police were struggling. “They are calling out and they have been calling out for quite some time for more police and that’s where I throw it back to Minister Troy Grant,” he said. “What has the minister being doing for the last four years, why have the resources dwindled under his tenure? “He’s on the way out and the bottom line is he is just seeing out his days and that’s not good enough for the people of Tweed.” Mr Zangari said the NSW government weren’t worried about communities. “They are just worried about their mates in the corporate suites in Sydney,” he said. “They aren’t worried about the people out on the periphery like the Tweed.” Mr Elliot said crime statistics in Tweed Shire showed a need for far more resources. “We are in the top ten in the state when it comes to ice,” he said. “We have an ice epidemic and on the back of that comes all the crime, all the theft, all the assaults. “There is an absolute rise in crime and everyone has seen that - there are break-ins, assaults, car chases, motor vehicles being stolen all the time.” Mr Elliot called on the government to “do their job.” “The police are doing their job but the government isn’t,” he said. “Geoff Provest has had eight budgets to think about their priorities and we know what they are - stadiums, tunnel and toll roads for Sydney that don’t benefit anyone in the Tweed.”

TWO TWEED Police officers were injured in a violent confrontation with a 24-year-old male at a property in Banora Point, on Friday, September 28, which included one officer being grabbed by the testicles during the scuffle. Police said they arrived at the Sexton Hill Drive address around 7.30pm to arrest the man on a number of outstanding warrants relating to alleged police pursuits, motor vehicle theft and aggravated break, enter and steal offences. “The premises is a unit on the second floor of the unit block,” Tweed Police said. “Upon the male becoming aware of the police presence, he has jumped from the verandah into the neighboring yard where he has jumped into the pool and swum to the far side. “At that location he has attempted to run from the pool.” Police said the man entered into a violent confrontation with the officers. “During the confrontation the male has punched officers, grabbed hold of the testicles of one of the officers and kicked a number of police,” they said. “He was eventually restrained and conveyed to the Tweed Heads Police Station.” A senior constable was taken to The Tweed Hospital for treatment of a leg and rib injury. Another police officer, a detective senior constable, received treatment for lacerations and bruising to his nose and shin. The man was charged with the outstanding warrants which totaled 19 offences, as well as break, enter and steal, two counts of assaulting police and four counts of resisting police. He was refused bail and was scheduled to appear at Tweed Heads Local Court on Tuesday, October 2.

How to survive long-haul flights Living in Australia is great, but when it comes to travelling you do realise just how remote a country it is. This means you will be sat on that plane for a while, especially when travelling to northern hemisphere destinations like Europe. Eight to ten hours in an aircraft cabin to Asia might sound like your worst nightmare, so imagine flying beyond that to Europe where you can add on another 12 – 14 hours in the air. Flying long-haul doesn’t have to be painful, with just a little preparation and a few home comforts. Here are 5 survival tips for long flights to emerge refreshed, relaxed and ready to start your holiday when you touch down.

the holiday and pack it in the hold – it’ll only set the alarms off at airport security anyway. In case of emergencies, closed toed shoes are better than flip flops and make sure you don’t wear any footwear that’s too snug, as your feet do swell at high altitudes.

2. Do pre-seat selection One of the most essential long-haul flight tips is to think ahead and choose a good seat, where possible. Some airlines charge for this, so do take it into consideration as it may well be worth the fee. If you want more leg room, opt for exit rows, if you want to avoid crying children, stay away from the front of the plane as this is often where you’ll find special provision for babies on international flights, if you like to move about the plane (or have quick access to the loos) make sure you get an aisle seat.

1. Dress comfortable

Pick an outfit that you’ll be happy to wear after ten hours sat on a plane. Planes can get cold with the aircon out of your control so wearing several loose layers are ideal to adjust your temperature as you fly. Save your jewellery for

3. Prepare yourself for sleep You’ll be on the plane for the equivalent of a whole day or night, so it’s worth bringing a few long-haul flight essentials. Start with a lightweight blanket and invest in a good travel pillow to make sleeping less of a neckache. Forget that those other 349 passengers are even there with a good sleep mask and a pair of ear plugs. Finally, slip in some basic toiletries, such as a hand luggage sized toothbrush and toothpaste, and you’ll feel that bit fresher when you land.

4. Move around the plane

Stretching your legs is not only necessary for your own sanity on a long-haul flight, but to avoid the risk of developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Keep the circulation flowing in your legs by doing gentle exercises at your seat and get up every two hours. There may not be anywhere in particular to walk apart from up and down the aisles but moving

about the plane once in a while is much more conducive to getting some healthy rest than popping a sleeping pill.

5. Stay hydrated

Aircraft cabins are often very dry places and the chances of becoming dehydrated are high. Drink plenty of water slowly and regularly and avoid too much tea, coffee and alcohol. Bring a bottle of water onboard if you can (it may need to be purchased at the airport and stay sealed until you’re on the plane because of liquid restrictions). Even having an empty plastic bottle in your hand luggage means you can store any water the cabin crew bring round so that you always have some to hand in between trolley trips. You may find your skin is affected too – bring a small tube of moisturizer and take some eyedrops if you’re prone to dry eyes. Try not to drink too much alcohol as this will only make you more dehydrated. Contact the team at Helloworld to find out more on 02 6672 1031.

Tweed Shire Councillors two years on By Jonathon Howard

IT HAS been two years since the election of our current Tweed Shire Councillors, who have been guiding the Tweed and working hard with the community to shape the future of our Shire. The Weekly has already caught up with four of our seven Councillors (see Thursday, September 27 edition) and this week we put the questions to the remaining three Councillors including Cr Warren Polglase, Mayor Katie Milne and Cr Pryce Allsop. First up is Cr Warren Polglase, our most senior councillor and a committed longtime local with extensive knowledge of the Tweed Shire. Cr Polglase said that whilst Councillors can always talk about personal achievements within Tweed Shire Council and the community: “I believe there is no achievement unless there is a collaborative approach in which we all need to work together to achieve”. “This approach in my opinion has been lacking in the decision making within Tweed Shire Council,” Cr Polglase said. “That is why the Tweed Shire Council has spent $1.35 million dollars in legal fees in the past 12 months. “As your Tweed Shire Councillor my priorities in the next two years is for Tweed Shire Council to be more considerate in how we negotiate outcomes.

“Personal and political agendas should be placed on the back burner. “The challenge ahead that exists is how do we reduce the amount of ‘red tape’ that strangles the Tweed Shire in our decisionmaking process, this can only happen with a cooperative organisation and the will of the elected body to move in the same direction.” Cr Polglase emphasised his commitment to the many Tweed Shire small businesses, which he said were the engine drivers of local employment. “As your Tweed Shire Councillor, I have always been supportive of small businesses as they are the ‘engine driver’ of job opportunities within Tweed Shire,” he said. “Thriving small businesses will take this Tweed Shire to another level but there has to be consideration for less red tape to these businesses who have or are about to invest within the Tweed Shire. “At present the political activists have the potential to strangle any small business. “As your Tweed Shire Councillor, I believe we will need a greater vision by the elected body of Tweed Shire to create international health, science and technologies hubs. “The future hope for Tweed Shire is a vision that needs to be creative and opportunistic and I have worked on these principals in all my public and business life.” Cr Polglase also highlighted the local volunteers who he said need more recognition. “As your Tweed Shire Councillor and a volunteer, I know our volunteers are the backbone of the Tweed Shire Community,” he said. “A commitment and dedication is shown by our volunteers; we need to recognise their achievements and where possible to provide funding and assistance in their endeavours.

“The Tweed Shire Council elected body has got to give serious consideration in their request for additional reports from staff and demanding extra workshops and deferring matters. “These are a burden on extra costs within the organisation and is extremely time wasting. “As your Tweed Shire Councillor, I believe that council has lost its way with the ‘can do’ attitude that deliver outcomes which reflects the majority of the community.” Next up is recently re-elected Tweed Shire Mayor Katie Milne, who has led as mayor since 2015 and since the start of the Councillors' four-year term and has battled hard to maintain a green shire. “My overriding priority for the next two years is to take a strong stand on climate change and keep the community as safe as possible and our environment resilient to warming and extreme weather events such as Cyclone Debbie,” Mayor Milne said. “Of course, Tweed’s impact is a drop in the ocean on a global scale but if every town takes that attitude and shirks their responsibility we will all be in seriously deep trouble. “It is often not a welcomed message, but it is one that needs to be emphasised as we have such little time left to get this under control.” Mayor Milne said she has taken a recent passionate approach to water extraction lately, which she highlighted as a hot topic for the Tweed Shire and also the hospital development.

“The loss of the hospital in Tweed Heads and the impact on State Significant Farmlands and over development of the coast with the new hospital is a key concern,” she said. “Water extraction has also come to a head lately with new scientific advice that we really need more information to be sure this practice is sustainable. “The archaic practice of logging our precious native forests without any on ground environmental or aboriginal heritage studies allowed by the State Government must stop.” Mayor Milne also commented on future affordable housing strategies as a priority. “The most effective way to achieve affordable housing on a grand scale is for the State Government to mandate a percentage of affordable housing in new developments and provide more social housing as Tweed has far less than the State average,” she said. The Weekly also questioned Mayor Milne around what steps she believes need to be taken to improve the shire's green credentials. “Heat waves are the largest killer of allnatural disaster events and our large elderly community is particularly vulnerable to heat stress,” she said. “Cooling our streets with beautiful trees and sustainable planning controls is proven to be effective and great for business also.” Last but by no means least on the Councillor list is new comer and fierce business advocate Cr Pryce Allsop, who has made a name for his support of local businesses and is not afraid to share his views. Cr Allsop said he was proud of pushing for tourism to be recognised as an economic driver for the Tweed Valley, as well as supporting businesses applications that can deliver economic benefits for the Tweed Shire.

reaching development or inflicting additional conditions for consent on the applications is a hard pill to swallow when you know much of our community will be concerned with their motivation,” he said “Removing Federal or State planning laws is not something that we can see changing without lots of lengthy conversations. “Whilst I vowed to fight the difficulties of planning approvals there is a realisation that this is more difficult than imagined, particularly given our current elected councillors. “Laws are not easily changed, and planning problems shouldn’t be underestimated.” Cr Allsop provided some valuable tips to anyone considering a development application. “Understanding that Development Applications should be taken seriously is a valuable piece of information,” he said. “People use the best accountant they can afford to protect their hard-earned dollars, in the same way when submitting a Development Application, we should seek expert advice and do some research to find the best consultants for our Development Application. “Ask planners for estimated contributions to council and any incentives you might be eligible for. “A we l l p re p a re d a n d c o n s i d e re d Development Application can make a lot of difference to the speed in which it is assessed.” Finally, on the topic of what Cr Allsop has learned since taking up the role as Tweed Shire Councillor. “Council offers no end of introductions to new initiatives and opportunities for our Shire as well as problems and difficulties,” he said. “I guess understanding that Councillor's jobs are more difficult than I had considered is worthy of note. “The fact is anything that is contentious comes before Council for consideration. “Matters not before Council, are generally dealt with under delegation by staff. “These matters tend to be the black and white matters, the contentious or grey issues are the ones that come before Councillors with staff recommendations; it is then up to Councillors to use their initiative, understanding and consideration to decide for or against and be mindful of potential court costs if the matter is appealed. “The staff are mindful of Councillor's concerns but must act within the parameters of law and planning. “Knowing that often you will be faced by many objections to Development Applications is very challenging. “I do believe that if regional Australia is to be better resourced and funded now and, in the future, that councils and elected Councillors should continue to advocate and do their bit to ensure the future is bright for the people who live here and those yet to come.”

He listed a range of his local achievements i n c l u d i n g supporting sports and clubs for their social benefits as well as promoting their economic values. “I've looked for opportunities for arts to be delivered, shared and facilitated throughout the Tweed," he said. “I have also helped to promote Tweed businesses where ever possible and working with Councillors and Council staff to find ways to make Tweed a great place to visit and stay. “Other areas I’m proud of are working with the community and Council to deliver projects after Cyclone Debbie devastated the Tweed. “In 2017, a very large amount of time has been taken up by this flood and the damage it caused. “Overall, I see Tweed Valley being rejuvenated and possibly looking better and performing better than it has in a long time.” Cr Allsop has also outlined his priorities for the next two years which include delivering the Rail Trail and addressing a lack of building lots. “I will also be seeking funding for sporting facilities across the Tweed,” he said. “I will work with Council to deliver on the opportunities for housing and building lots to be made available across the Tweed Shire. “To maintain the flow of initiatives to see flood damages rectified and progressed and to seek and provide better information regarding future flooding.” Cr Allsop said he was currently working to gain community support to fund a major makeover of Lions Lookout. “To create a beautiful meandering gardens and create another tourism draw card for Tweed Shire and Murwillumbah is the goal as it is currently a real missed opportunity for Tweed,” he said. Cr Allsop said he is also an advocate for threatened species and said he believes in “sensible measures” and “sustainable growth”. “I will also continue to advocate hard for our threatened species,” he said. “I have been a consistent voice within Council for sensible measures to ensure sustainable growth, development and recreation with adequate control measures and proactive policy to protect our wildlife.” As an advocate for small business and a small business owner, Cr Allsop said he believes the red tape needs to be reduced. “Yes, I do believe red tape should be reduced, the reality is much of our red tape is actually “Green tape” the rainbow four stopping or preventing applications often from

TWEED SHIRE Council has responded to Kingscliff residents’ fears over future flooding with calls from locals to review and upgrade their Flood Management Study. Residents from the flood committee submitted a 570-signature petition that states the filling and residential development on land zoned for Future Urban Use under the draft Kingscliff Locality Plan poses “an unacceptable flood risk to both current and future residents”. The petition, which was tabled in the NSW Parliament’s Legislative Council recently, requested the House to call on Council to review and upgrade the current Flood Management Study in light of the flood levels reached in the West Kingscliff and Turnock Street precincts during the 2017 flood. “The flood in 2017 was the largest seen in the area since the 1970s,” a Council spokesperson said. “That is why many people saw flood water in areas for the first time. “Extensive flood modelling was undertaken in 2009, followed by a risk management study in 2014 which examined the potential cumulative impacts of filling in the West Kingscliff basin. “This work confirmed that some areas are more sensitive in terms of impacts, while others can be safely filled for development purposes, despite being on the floodplain.” Council said the 2017 flood event behaved generally as expected. “Flooding behaved generally as expected in the 2017 event – for a flood of that size - so there is no immediate need to revisit the flood study,” the Council spokesperson said.

“This has been confirmed by State Government agencies.” Council said they will update their flood study based on information from the 2017 flood. “Council intends to update the flood study for the Tweed Valley in 2019/20, incorporating data gathered from the 2017 event, updates in rainfall and runoff standards, and advances in modelling technology,” the spokesperson said. In relation to the Gales development application to increase the area of filling at their development site south of Turnock Street, Council said it was “still under assessment and awaiting the applicant to come back with some further detail around ecological impacts”. In response, Kingscliff flood committee spokesperson and Kingscliff resident Jeremy Cornford said predicting the next flood remains extremely difficult. “The 2017 flood may well have been the largest since 1974 and the next one which equals or tops it will then be the largest etc, which proves absolutely nothing except that not even Council can predict how big the next flood will be,” Mr Cornford said. “The flooding to backyards on the west side of Bellbird Dr occurred in 2013, not 2017 and resulted almost totally from tropical rainfall in the Kingscliff area, which the flood basin between the business precinct and the west residential area was unable to contain. “Had this been combined with the massive river flooding from the hinterland of 2017, the Kingscliff result would have been catastrophic. “This may not happen for another 50 years or it could happen next week.” “No amount of modelling can accurately predict when a flood will occur or of what severity it will be as 2013 and 2017 demonstrated to everyone.”

Class action circulating retirement villages By Jonathon Howard

THE LAW firm behind a class action lawsuit against Aveo Group for the use of the Aveo Way contract, has recently distributed information and registration packs to residents at Mountain View Retirement Village in Murwillumbah. In September 2017, Levitt Robinson filed a Class Action in the Federal Court of Australia against the retirement village operator Aveo Group Limited. The Weekly contacted Levitt Robinson to enquire about likely numbers in the class action, however, a spokesperson said it was too early to indicate numbers as the firm was still collecting information. Residents have also been asked to fill out the questionnaires and provide Levitt Robinson with a copy of their Management Agreement with Aveo. “The class action relates to the management contracts also known as “service agreements” or “residence contracts” being given to residents and has been brought on behalf of current and former residents of Aveo-run villages who purchased their units before the “Aveo Way” was introduced (including people who have sold their units, or if they have died, their executors),” Levitt Robinson’s class action explanation reads. Levitt Robinson’s Senior Partner, Stewart Levitt, was interviewed about Aveo by Fairfax journalist, Adele Ferguson on the ABC Four Corners program in June 2017 and for the “Retirement Racket” series of articles in the Fairfax newspapers, which were published in the lead-up to the Four Corners episode. “Levitt Robinson introduced the journalists to the plight of residents,” a statement on Levitt Robinson’s website reads. “Levitt Robinson believes that many Aveo residents may have been “sold a lemon” and we are now trying to do something about it.” The class action relates to the launch of the Aveo Way contract in May 2015 which contain terms that according to Levitt Robinson “significantly depart from the previous management contracts in Aveo retirement villages”. The key differences as outlined by Levitt Robinson include an acceleration of the exit

fee/deferred management fee, crystallising as a liability after just three years, to a maximum of 35 per cent, plus an additional “Aveo Membership Fee” component of $1,500 a year. Another clause was Aveo keeping all of the capital gain realised on the resale of the unit while the Aveo Way tenant risked responsibility for 50 per cent of any capital loss, and in many villages, a change from freehold tenure to 99-year leasehold tenure. “In the Class Action, we allege that these changes in the management agreements offered by Aveo depress the resale value of the units in Aveo retirement villages,” Levitt Robinson’s statement reads. “Levitt Robinson is seeking compensation for everyone (or their executors) who has sold a unit in an Aveo retirement village since the introduction of the Aveo Way contract, representing the difference in value between the amount they received on resale and the amount that they should have received. “The Class Action also seeks the return of sales commission that Aveo has been charging residents for the sale of their units in Aveo retirement villages, when the purchaser was the manager of the village. “For existing residents, the Class Action seeks a declaration that the Aveo Way Scheme is unlawful and an injunction restraining Aveo from selling units in Aveo retirement villages in accordance with the scheme unless it makes full disclosure of the impact that this would have. “If granted, owners will achieve a real and measurable financial benefit.” Levitt Robinson outlined that residents can be involved with the Class Action if they are a current resident in an Aveo retirement village into which the Aveo Way contract has been introduced; former residents in Aveo retirement villages, or an executor of a former resident’s deceased estate, and the unit was sold in accordance with the “Aveo Way” contract. “At present, the Class Action only relates to people who have or who have had freehold title in their units,” Levitt Robinson’s statement said. “A claim on behalf of owners with “99 -year” leases is being prepared.”

Relocate Team renews bid to battle hospital site By Jonathon Howard

RELOCATE TEAM spokesperson Hayley Paddon has reinforced her message for residents to continue the fight to save prime agricultural farmland at Cudgen, which is earmarked for the Tweed Valley Hospital. Health Infrastructure has recently submitted a proposed acquisition notice to the Valuer General’s office, marking the first step in compulsorily acquiring 16 hectares of the 23-hectare site at 771 Cudgen Road, Cudgen, after a price could not be met with the landowner. “The Valuer General received the proposed acquisition notice for the partial acquisition of land at 771 Cudgen Road, Cudgen on 25 September 2018,” a spokesperson for the Office of the Valuer General told The Weekly. The Valuer General’s office said the acquisition process can take at least 90 days and up to 120 days from issue of the proposed acquisition notice if a price cannot be negotiated. Speaking with The Weekly on Tuesday, Mrs Paddon said the minister can ignore the minimum 90 days “if he feels that the hospital is urgent” and she is planning a peaceful community rally outside Member for Tweed Geoff Provest’s office on Friday, October 5. “But the latest report from Northern NSW Local Health District states that Tweed Heads Hospital has currently met all of its targets, so therefore the hospital is not in any need to be rushed through without any considerations,

consultation or concerns heard from the outer community on the Cudgen site that has been selected,” she said. “How do you enact a ‘city action plan’ on only 16 hectares of farmland?” Mrs Paddon’s comments relate to a “Tweed City Action Plan” that the Health Minister, Brad Hazzard, has advised Council is being implemented to encourage the growth of private health infrastructure development in immediate proximity to the new hospital. Mrs Paddon said Cudgen farmers were concerned that the State Government may use their own State Environmental Planning Policy (SEPP) process to rezone further State Significant Farmland to enact the “City Action Plan”. Mrs Paddon has been at the forefront of the debate since it started earlier this year. “The fight to save the Cudgen plateau from development has brought myself, James, the Relocate Team and community members together and we are sick of being condescended and ignored by this government,” she said. Mrs Paddon said the entire process has moved beyond the initial argument and has now helped local families form lifelong friendships. “We’re also becoming very educated about processes and how the State Government have limited transparency and community engagement,” she said. “By the State Government also choosing Cudgen as the site, it has polarised how much this land not

only means to us as farmers, but how much this community will also fight for it and want to see the Cudgen plateau preserved and protected from any future unnecessary development. “We stand for the land, as it is such a big part of everyone’s life not only as a food supply but also a way of lifestyle and what everyone loves about this beautiful area.” Mrs Paddon said she wanted to make it clear that although the submission has been made to the Valuer General, “now was not the time to give up”. “We are only at step two of seven, so we want to make it clear to the community that now is not the time to give up,” she said. The Relocate Team will be holding community workshops to assist residents with submissions when the plans are placed on public exhibition by the NSW Department of Planning. Health Infrastructure are expecting the plans to go on exhibition in October. “The community will also be informed of opportunities to file objections in the future,” she said. “ We a l s o l e a r n t f ro m t h e Environmental Defenders Office that the State Government have a rezoning tool at their complete disposal.” Mrs Paddon said she believes further development at or around the hospital site could be made a lot easier for current or future governments. “The scary part about this is, unlike what we’ve been told, further

A recent demonstration near the proposed hospital site.

development applications on the Cudgen plateau will not need to be State Significant development to go ahead, they will just need the State Government to use their SEPP to override any further State Significant Farmland, which is a big concern for farmers and the outer community,” she said. Mrs Paddon said the peaceful community rally is designed to send a message to Premier Gladys Bereljeklian, Geoff Provest MP and the Liberal National Party. “That as taxpayers and also the people that live in this community, we do not want our regional city to be Kingscliff and to impose this massive development on protected state significant land when there was a master redevelopment all ready to go for the Tweed Heads Hospital’s current site. “As well as 40 other sites that could be considered and this decision is

something we are not taking sitting down. “Our opinions as community and taxpayers are important and the Premier’s office has admitted to me that they have received hundreds, if not thousands, of emails and yet the Premier has done nothing but send automated emails to the community suggesting that we take this up with Health Minster Brad Hazzard and Tweed member Geoff Provest, the very people who are imposing this on us. “The time has come to stop writing and start protesting we have tried to get the Premier’s attention over the last six months and she has completely ignored this community.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe the Relocate Team have been ignored by the Premier?

UNUSED BICYCLES have just been brought back to life as part of NSW Bike Week, a government initiative designed to promote cycling as a healthy, easy, low cost and environmentally friendly transport option for short trips. The Transport NSW initiative was supported by Tweed Shire Council and The Family Centre at Tweed Heads. Council put out a call to Tweed residents for any old, unused bikes and the participating bike shops received 44. These were then repaired with donated time and parts by a great team of good samaritans at Kingscliff Cycle Centre, Border Bikes, Coast Cyclery, South Tweed Supercycle and the Cycle Centre Murwillumbah. The bikes were then donated to The Family Centre for distribution. Roger Campbell from South Tweed Supercycle said it was a good community project. “I’m happy to get more people on bikes and happy to contribute time and parts,” he said. Brendan Brooks from Coast Cyclery received 11 bikes which he repaired with the help of workmate Paul. “The community had bikes sitting unused in sheds and were happy to pass them on to someone who will use them,” he said. “Paul who works with me helped to fix them up. “The community is pretty excited about it.” Organiser of the project, Council’s Road Safety Officer Alana Brooks said the goal was to promote bike safety and to encourage

short trips for health, recreation and to help reduce congestion. “You don’t have to worry about parking, it’s a fun, social activity and the Tweed Shire has an amazing network of bike tracks,” she said. “The recipients also got show bags with Cycleway maps, repair kits, helmets and safety gear. “I was really impressed by the generosity of community members and the bike shops.” Darren French from Kingscliff Cycle Centre has repaired 12 and still has another eight to complete. “There’s been a bit of juggling because I only have a small shop and a lot of after hours work,” Darren said. “I think it’s a great cause and I love to see these bikes being ridden. “I had one bike donated by a lady whose husband had died six years ago and she couldn’t bear to part with his bike but when she saw this and felt like her husband’s bike was going to a good cause she was happy to let it go.” Molly was one of the lucky recipients. “I think it’s really cool,” she told The Weekly. “I can take my daughter Annie - she is 11-months-old for a ride and get some fresh air. “It will just be a different activity to do with her to get out of the house.” Crystal said she got a bike for her son. “He’s 21-months-old and I got a little one with trainer wheels for him,” she said. “He loves bikes; anything with wheels he loves. “He’ll see it when I get home and he will be very happy and excited.”

Feeling Dizzy?

You could have a balance or ves�bular disorder

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

o achieve good physical balance, we rely on our brain, eyes, innerear, and musculoskeletal system to work in harmony.

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

HOW CAN YOUR OSTEOPATH HELP? There are many causes of dizziness or vertigo. But most types of vestibular disorders can be diagnosed by means of a thorough medical history and clinical examination. The most common type of vertigo is Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), and once diagnosed is easily treated with repositioning manoeuvres, with a success rate of 90%. (Silva, 2014). Another type of vertigo encountered is Cervicogenic Vertigo, which is due to a dysfunction in the neck. Again once diagnosed, it can be easily treated with Osteopathic intervention. Your Osteopath can diagnose most of the common types of vestibular disorders and can either treat the condition or refer on for further diagnosis and treatment. Dr Rudi Gerhardt B.Sc., D.O.

THE SACRED Littoral Project Team has sought to set the record straight on the Murwillumbah Christmas tree project after funding was withdrawn by the Tweed Shire Council recently. The Christmas tree project was launched with a $10,000 commitment from Council to erect a permanent Christmas tree sculpture following the loss of Murwillumbah’s temporary Christmas tree due to vandalism. Former Murwillumbah & District Business Chamber president David Vincent wrote to The Weekly on Friday, September 28, and said he would like to correct some “inaccuracies” in the report titled “Murwillumbah Christmas tree shelved”. “The Business Chamber was not forced to withdraw because of lack of funds following the 2017 flood,” Mr Vincent said. “The Business Chamber was not asked to allocate funds to the project. The Chamber was tasked to match the Council’s commitment of the $10,000, that it had set aside for the project and the balance would be from local sponsorship.” Mr Vincent said sponsorship has been underway, with several local companies d o n at i n g t h e c o n c re t e a n d s p e c i a l arrangements for steel and galvanising, just to name a few. “In particular the engineer who has signed off on the project is donating a large part of his fee,” he said. The artist, Stuart Cussons, is donating his time and expertise in project design and construction.

“The Murwillumbah and District Business Chamber, who were to auspice the project, did not withdraw though lack of funds. They withdrew because of the financial timidity of the then Board.” Mr Vincent said following the withdrawal of the chamber it was arranged for Creative Caldera to auspice the project. “Creative Caldera asked the project team to hold off on the project until the Murwillumbah Art Trail was completed,” he said. “This requested delay would have a longer term affect, as the artist Stuart Cussons, was required to work on a major project for a Sydney exhibition. Work on building the structure would commence in November 2018 and the structure would form part of the Murwillumbah Art Trail in 2019. It would be the town Christmas tree at the end of that year.” Mr Vincent said Creative Caldera was aware of this delay but they seemed to be running their own agenda to get some sort of Christmas tree in 2018. “This is all very well and our project team supports a tree and decorations,” he said. “However, taking the long term view we are not talking about a temporary tree that has limited application and has to be taken down and stored each year.” “The Sacred Littoral project will form part of Murwillumbah festivities and landscape for many years.” Mr Vincent said the Sacred Littoral team would push ahead with the Murwillumbah Christmas tree project if Council restored their financial commitment.

Take control of head lice

This is why it is imperative the we also “create” time to relax, nurture and support ourselves. Our nervous system was never designed to go full throttle 24/7! When we are truly relaxed, our nervous system gets a welldeserved rest, our immune system gets a boost, our imagination & creativity are heightened, we’re able to think more clearly, find the

answers within, and we’re more receptive to making positive life changes . My approach and style of practice is holistic, spiritual, compassionate, gentle & empowering.

Finding head lice

Pharmacist Jasbinder Bhullar.TIF

I incorporate Reiki, metaphysics, hypnotherapy, counselling, parts therapy, NLP and spirit.

SCHOOL HOLIDAYS are coming to an end and as parents and kids are busy getting everything organised and ready to head back to school the issues of health and spread of infections maybe overlooked.

As your Therapist, I’m committed to working with you and assisting you to open the door to your own potential and to make those positive changes.

One particularly common issue which is found to spread more commonly at school is head lice.

What are head lice

Head lice are small wingless insects and only the size of a sesame seed. They are only found on the human hair and head where they go through their life cycle feeding on human blood. They need warmth from the head and blood to survive and thus cannot survive long on clothing, bedding or other personal items. Once removed from the head they cannot survive longer than 24 hours They are transmitted via direct contact (hair to hair, head to head) which can occur from hugging, playing closely together etc. They cannot jump or fly from head to head.

Nits – These are the live eggs which attach to the hair fibres within a distance of about 1.5cm

To determine if there is a lice infestation it is important to inspect the hair and scalp as itching is not always a symptom of head lice. Lice and nits can be seen when the hair is inspected. Nits which are oval and appear like dots can not be brushed or flicked off the hair as they attach themselves to the hair shaft. They need to be physically removed from the hair with fingers and will make a popping sound if crushed between the fingers. The presence of eggs is also not indicative of an active head lice infestation as the eggs maybe already hatched or dead and can remain on the scalp for several weeks. The easiest way to find head lice is using a conditioner and comb method. A conditioner (which makes it difficult for the lice to grip on to the hair) is applied to dry hair and separated into sections. Then using a lice comb the hair is combed and after the stroke the comb is wiped onto a white tissue and checked for any lice or nits. This is repeated through all the part sections of hair. If Lice are present then the person should be treated.

Nymphs – the eggs will hatch in about 5-7 days and these newly hatched eggs, young lice are known as nymphs. Adult lice – in about 10 days time the nymphs become adult lice and can live for up to 30 days.

Paramedics test off-road ambulance

4/289 Tweed Valley Way, Murwillumbah

PARAMEDICS FROM the Murwillumbah Ambulance Station are trialling a new all-terrain vehicle that could one day replace their long-trusted carriers and enable paramedics to reach patients in difficult to access locations. The Iveco 4x4 offers a spacious alternative to the previous four-wheel drives including the Mercedes Benz Sprinter and Toyota Landcruiser, while equalling the off-road capabilities and providing greater space. Murwillumbah ambulance station manager Grant Prendergast said the new vehicle was already proving to be a successful vehicle in all terrains. “We gave the Iveco a good test run,” he said. “As this is on loan, we wanted to see what its capabilities are in extreme circumstance, such as losing traction and having flat tyres.” Paramedics put the vehicle through some extreme tests including deflating all the tyres in soft sand and getting bogged. “It handled the situations with ease,” Mr Prendergast said.

Many of the paramedics have also commented on the space the new Iveco vehicles offer. “It’s a huge increase in space on the other vehicles,” Mr Prendergast said. “We can almost completely stand and there’s more room for patients and gear.” While the Toyota Landcruiser and Mercedes Sprinter have been a mainstay for decades and has proven abilities off-road, Mr Prendergast said space and head room had remained a challenge. Iveco is an acronym for Industrial Vehicles Corporation, which is an Italian industrial vehicle manufacturing company based in Turin, Italy, and entirely controlled by CNH Industrial Group. The Iveco Daily 4x4 is powered by a 3.0 litre direct injection diesel engine with Variable Geometry Turbo for superior power and performance. The engine delivers 170hp (125kW) of power and 400Nm of torque from a low 1,250rpm while still meeting emissions standards through EGR+SCR technology.

WWII vessel shifts to Tweed Shire

Phone: 02 6672 3100

A WORLD War II hospital ship which had been at Heritage Park on the Gold Coast, has finally made the big move to Chinderah, where it will undergo a refurbishment to bring it back to its former glory. The 80-foot-long vessel Krawarree is now situated behind the Shell Service Station at Chinderah, where a group of dedicated restorers are eager to get started. Spokesperson for the restoration group, Bob Modystack, told The Weekly the team have about two years to restore the vessel. “We’re extremely pleased to now have the boat off the vacant lot on the Gold Coast and now at Chinderah,” Mr Modystack said. “We’re eager to get started and hopefully we can raise enough funds to complete the works over the next two years.” Krawaree (AH1733) was one of five large wooden boats built in Tasmania during 1944-45 for the Australian Army and was the fourth vessel in a series of five. The five vessels were: AH 1730 Koorakee, AH 1731 Koroit, AH 1732 Koumala, AH 1733 Krawarree, and AH 1734 Kuranda.

According to historic records the Krawaree had a crew of 12 and the boat carried a doctor and two nurses during the war. The vessel was able to carry 33 stretchers and was fitted out below deck with an emergency operating table. To help facilitate the handling of stretchered patients, a boom was fitted behind the main mast, which is also expected to be restored. “AH1733 Krawarree, the primary purpose of the launches, with their shallow draft, was to evacuate casualties from the beachheads to waiting hospital ships,” historic records read. “The boats were very versatile and sometimes, were used as command vessels and general transport and communication vessels.” Mr Modystack said the group are hoping to have several open days at the site for the public to visit and experience the heritage listed boat.

New retail complex to open in Pottsville By Jo Kennett

A NEW retail complex has just been completed in the main street of Pottsville and is shaping up to be a vibrant addition to the village centre. Owners of the building, George and Di Macdonald, live in Brisbane and first visited Pottsville for a holiday in 1982. “We loved it so much and have been coming for holidays ever since,” George said. Son Daniel set up Pottsville Physiotherapy with his wife Melissa when they moved to the area in 2006 and subsequently opened Cabarita Beach Physiotherapy and a Pilates studio at TriCare Hastings Point. Their flourishing practises quickly outgrew the premises and when the property on the corner of Coronation Drive and Elizabeth Street came on the market, George and Daniel both had the idea that it might be a great spot to relocate the businesses to. George and Daniel discussed it and Melissa said when they got home from work that night George had already signed the contract. “We basically put our whole retirement into this and to be viable we had to have more than just the physio,” George said. “It was designed by Mayhill Planning & Architecture and they have been terrific. “I went with Steven and Michael after seeing (and being highly impressed with) some examples of their work, and the outcome has exceeded our expectations, as has the standard of construction and finish by GCB Builders.

Lions Club aid farmers

George and Di Macdonald, Melissa and Daniel Anderson with daughter Lyla

“I wanted a soft finish with plenty of light and a relaxed, beachy feel and they have achieved that.” Daniel and Melissa wanted a loft-like physio and Pilates space with exposed timber beams “I wanted a beautiful workout space that was something boutique,” Melissa said. The rebranded Loft Pilates studio is open and airy with high wooden rafters in the style of the Pilates lofts in New York that had impressed her so much during the years that she and Daniel spent travelling the world. “When we outgrew our other physio and Pilates spaces we decided we wanted it all under one roof,” Melissa said. “We see it as a massive opening for fitness Pilates and we will also have a focus on clinical Pilates. “We have five new instructors and 29 classes and it’s basically a whole new business.” The building consists of three apartments, four shops - two of which

are being turned into a restaurant - and the Pilates and physiotherapy rooms as well as parking. George wanted to have a green space along the Coronation Drive side of the building but it wasn’t permitted. “Despite some initial concerns regarding the size of the building, hopefully when everything is open people will appreciate the work that has gone into making it a beautiful place to visit.” Until he retired George ran an embroidery business that his father started in Brisbane in 1934 while Di worked as a nurse. “I’d finish nursing and go to work with George on the embroidery,” Di said. “We’ve been married for 46 years and we’ve always worked together,” George said. “We’ve always been a good team.” “They have worked really hard their whole lives and this building is the product of that,” Daniel said.

LIONS CLUB of Murwillumbah have made a significant donation of $10,000 to aid farmers in the droughtstricken area of Forbes west of Sydney recently. The funds were raised through the hardworking efforts of Lions Club members who hosted a barbecue service every second Monday and one Saturday of the month at the Murwillumbah Cattle Sale Yards. “The funds in essence have come directly from local Tweed Shire farmers to support farmers in drought areas,” a spokesperson for Lions Club of Murwillumbah said. “It was through a lot of hard work that these funds were raised, and it was a great feeling for the entire club to give something back to those who need it.” Forbes, like many regional NSW areas, remains in longterm drought, with long-range forecasts predicting the drought to last for several more months to come. In response, Forbes Lions Club secretary Gayle Williams wrote a letter to Lions Club of Murwillumbah thanking them for the generous donation. “Thank you to your club for their fantastic donation which you forwarded to our club,” Mrs Williams said. “This will certainly help our local farmers in their efforts to survive the drought. “We have deposited the money into our District Drought Relief Fund which is covering the cost of purchasing fodder, in particular hay, for distribution to local drought-affected farmers.” Lions Club of Murwillumbah members have also offered to host some of the Forbes farmers in the Tweed Valley for a holiday. “Thank you also for your kind offer to host some of our local farmers,” Mrs Williams said. “As you would imagine they are all kept busy at present with feeding and caring for their surviving stock. “We are in contact with some rural counsellors, who may be able to suggest some likely candidates for this.”

Community grants open

A photo of Gwen Deem taking in 2014

Mammoth knitting effort to restore sight BIG-HEARTED LOCAL Gwen Deem has recently completed a mammoth knitting task with a goal to help as many people as possible with their eyesight through the Fred Hollows Foundation. Gwen’s husband Richard Deem dropped by The Weekly office this week to follow up on a previous report in 2014. “It was around 2010, when Gwen decided to raise money for the Fred Hollows organisation,” he said. “The notion that every $25 she raised would save an eyesight inspired her.” T h i s w e e k t h e Fr e d H o l l ow s organisation confirmed that Gwen has finally achieved her target of raising $25,000 – restoring sight to 1,000 eyes. “Gwen has always been an adept knitter and I’ve long marveled at her uncanny ability to watch TV or read a novel whilst knitting, as though her brain has a separate knitting control centre,” he said.

In 2013 Gwen and her husband settled in Murwillumbah and were eager to test the generosity of the local scene, she held a market stall on the corner of Wharf and Queen Streets in Murwillumbah. “It was very well patronised,” she said. Gwen has since expanded her activities to what has become an epic eight-year quest to save 1,000 eyes. She designed, knitted and sold beanies, hats, berets, scarves, gloves including fingerless gloves, socks, gauntlets, dolls in knitted outfits, vests, waistcoats, jumpers, headbands, dishcloths, leg warmers, boleros, babies’ layettes, booties, bonnets, rugs, bed socks and mittens,” Richard said. “Local businesses willingly sold her knitted goods, many opting not to add a profit margin on these sales. “Friends gave her their unwanted supplies of wool and family members and friends sent knitted items to her to sell.

“Gwen also obtained dolls from op shops which she restored, clothed in knitted garments and sold.” Richard said while travelling she visited wool mills and yarn spinners in a never-ending search for the right colours and grades of sheep and alpaca and sometimes even possum wool. “Gwen would like to thank all who have helped her along the way and says she won’t be stopping, but maybe slowing down a bit,” Richard said. Four years after he was diagnosed with cancer, and knowing he didn’t have much longer to live, Fred and Gabi Hollows decided they needed to find a way to continue his work. They started Fred Hollows Foundation with a group of friends and supporters to keep Fred’s dream alive, that everyone, no matter whether rich or poor, would have the right to high quality and affordable eye care. They promised to continue to fight for the change Fred so badly wanted.

COMMUNITY ORGANISATIONS looking to build new or upgrade current facilities are being encouraged to apply for funding from the NSW Government’s Infrastructure Grants program. Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said applications can be submitted for sport and recreation, arts and culture, and emergency preparedness from Tuesday, October 2. “This funding can make a real difference to the local community, either by providing new or improved sporting or cultural facilities, or by protecting local residents in emergency situations,” Mr Provest said. “This year will see the NSW Government complete its commitment to invest $50 million into community infrastructure projects across NSW in four years.” The funding is provided through the Clubgrants Category 3 program, which receives a contribution from registered clubs’ gaming machine profits to benefit local communities. Funding ranges are $50,000 to $200,000 for arts and culture, $10,000 to $200,000 for emergency preparedness and $100,000 to $300,000 for sport and recreation. Applications for the final round of Infrastructure Grants for 2018 will be open until October 22. For more information visit https://www.responsiblegambling. nsw.gov.au/infrastructure-grants/infrastructure-grants

Sporting funds announced MEMBER FOR Tweed Geoff Provest has announced over $1.45 million in funding to upgrade community and local sporting facilities across Tweed through round two of the NSW Government’s Stronger Country Communities Fund. Tweed Shire Council secured NSW Government funding for eight projects, which include upgrades to sporting and community facilities across the electorate. This means a total of $1,451,446 for projects across Tweed community and local sporting facilities including $100,000 for Casuarina Sports field lighting, $350,000 for upgrades to Barry Sheppard Sports Field and $220,000 for Tweed Heads South Aquatic Centre. Deputy Premier and Minister for Regional NSW John Barilaro said the roll out of the second round of projects takes Stronger Country Communities funding to $300 million. “I congratulate Tweed Shire Council and look forward to the local sports and community facility improvements that will make the region an even more attractive place to work and raise a family,” Mr Barilaro said.

Troy Cassar-Daley reflects on Northern Rivers life ahead of local gig “We used to surf Corindi and Arrawarra later on when I moved to Halfway Creek and the family used to all camp at Wooli over Easter. “We had tribal areas at Pebbly Beach and Station Creek we would stay at, but when we visited Angourie we never surfed Spooky’s - maybe it was a taboo area.” Troy’s parents split up when he was a child and he said that shaped his life. “I think adversity can shape anyone,” he said. “I didn’t like being torn between two places - it saddened me. “There was also a sense of shame because divorce was frowned upon in the Catholic system back then they weren’t going to confirm me because I came from a single parent family until my mum went in and told them it wasn’t my fault. That inspired my first album - it was quite sad.” Troy’s mother was a cook on the ‘motor rail’. “She used to get on the train at Grafton and go to Murwillumbah and they would drive north from there,” Troy said. “She’d have a rest at Murwillumbah then go back. “I spent a fair bit of time with her on the trains - it was always a treat.” Later on when Troy started a band he used to drive through Wooyung up the coast.

“It had a nice vibe, we’d be in the EH travelling up and down the coast and the gigs were always great,” he said. “One time I was with Little Eagle and we got caught in a flood at a pub at Murwillumbah and we had to park the trailer up high. “We did the gig and spent three or four hours with the pub owner moving all the beer upstairs and then we had a big party because we couldn’t get out.” Troy remembers the floods of 1974 in Grafton well. “My uncle was a bit of a rogue and he paddled me down the main street in full flood on his surfboard,” he said. “I was five years old and there were snakes and all sorts of things in the water - it was an incredible flood and I’ll never forget the smell of that. “It takes me back to helping people get the muck out there houses in the Brisbane 2011 floods.” Troy and his wife had a weekender at Fernvale, west of Brisbane, that was badly damaged in the floods and has just been sold. “We had no insurance and had to work hard to cover the $150,000 worth of damage but there were people around us who went through so much more,” he said. “Some were devastated and just had to walk away because the insurance companies wouldn’t pay.

“It’s just wrong - you spend so much money on a house.” Troy said he was looking forward to showcasing his new album at Twin Towns. “We had to really work on which songs to include in the album (Troy had 31 number one hit singles) and we tried to do the songs that people really connected with. “Make the Most of Every Day’ is about my dad dying with cancer.” Troy said he has always loved the feeling of Twin Towns.

“It’s an adventure musically to mix it up with my first acoustic show,” he said. “I’m as nervous as a poodle at a rottweiler party but it’s great for you as a muso to not have anything to hide behind - it’s just the music. “Fanny Lumsden and Dan Stanley Freeman are supporting and she is such a treasure to listen to and they are both great storytellers and perfect for the show so it will be great.” Troy Cassar Daley plays one show only on Friday, October 19, at 8pm at Twin Towns.

By Jo Kennett MULTI-AWARD WINNING country music icon Troy CassarDaley is set to release his longawaited Greatest Hits album on Friday, October 19, and will mark the occasion with a solo, acoustic, greatest hits show at Twin Towns. Troy grew up in Grafton and The Weekly caught up with him to discuss the album, the tour and what life was like growing up in the Northern Rivers. “I spent a lot of time going up and down the coast,” Troy said. “I always felt welcome and the people came out in droves to support us and that marks you for life. “It meant a lot to me.” Troy lives in Brisbane these days but said that once he heads south of the Tugun bypass there are “a lot of memories” that come rushing back. “I wrote my first record at South Golden Beach, I did a reunion for Spicks and Specks and Cram from Spiderbait lives there and knows the exact street,” he said. “Kasey Chambers used to play the Billinudgel pub.” Troy was packing his surfboard for a trip with his kids to Caloundra when The Weekly called and he recalled his days surfing on the north coast. “I used to get lifts to go surfing at Angourie and Turners at Yamba,” he said.

Borrowed Time opens at Tweed Regional Gallery A NEW exhibition by leading contemporary artist, Laith McGregor, that focuses on the themes of time and labour will open at the Tweed Regional Gallery on Friday, October 5. While the artist is best known for his highly detailed, largescale biro and pencil portraits, the exhibition Borrowed Time, will feature an array of new and recent works that include printmaking, sculpture and video, in addition to drawing and painting. Laith McGregor was born in Nambour, Queensland in 1977 and currently lives and works between Byron Bay and Bali. He completed a Diploma of Visual Arts at Cooloola Institute of TAFE in 1999 before continuing his studies in Brisbane and Melbourne, receiving a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Honours) at the Victorian College of the Arts, Melbourne in 2007. McGregor has exhibited throughout Australia and overseas, including the Museum of Contemporary Art (MCA), Sydney; Queensland Art Gallery Gallery of Modern Art (QAGOMA), Brisbane; and the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV). In recent years, his practice has become increasingly collaborative and for the upcoming exhibition he has enlisted three local high school teachers to collaborate on a new largescale wall drawing titled Past 2018. The ephemeral work will exist only for the duration of the exhibition before being painted over. Tweed Regional Gallery Director Susi Muddiman OAM is encouraging everyone to visit the Gallery and see the work before it disappears. “This work offers a great opportunity for members of our community to see the results of an artist’s collaboration with educators of our region,” Ms Muddiman said. The opening celebrations will be held at the Gallery on Friday, October 12.

Before reading about the movie Ladies in Black I did not know that in the Australian collective imagination the expression brings immediately to mind memories of the 1950s and the department stores that were ubiquitous then and provided most of not only the shopping but also the socializing opportunities for the community. Eventually I learnt about the 1993 novel by Madeleine St. John and the instant decision of turning it into a film made by Australia’s foremost filmmaker Bruce Beresford upon reading the novel. It seems to me that was a right and even obvious decision, and despite – or fortunately – it taking him 24 years before actually bringing the story to the screen, the movie could not have come at a more appropriate time. It revolves around not only the personal lives of a group of the ‘ladies in black’ – employees working in the ladies’ fashion section of a Sydney department store in the 1950s - but more generally about women’s rights, gender equality, and the deepseated prejudices in dealing with people coming to Australia from different cultures. Like in Book Club, the protagonists are four women quite different from each other: Patty is married with a typically uncommunicative husband, Fay is a single woman disappointed by all the men she meets, Lisa is a 16-year-old who would like to go on to university despite her father’s opposition, and Magda is a Slovenian immigrant. Their stories weave a tapestry of life at the time, lovingly recreated in the smallest details, poignant and humorous at the same time because, as Sue Minniken - the veteran film producer who has collaborated with Beresford on many film projects including Ladies in Black – has said “we are realizing it’s not so black and white between what’s an important story and what’s an unimportant story”.

At 5.15pm the artist and exhibition curator, Hamish Sawyer, will give an exhibition preview floor talk. At 6pm, Hamish Sawyer will officially open the exhibition. Borrowed Time is presented in partnership with Caloundra Regional Gallery and will be on display until Sunday, December 2.

VOTING HAS opened on the Falls Festival Foster a Band competition and The Weekly is proud to announce its nomination of Gratis Minds featuring Bronte Eve to play the final day of the festival. The act that gets the most votes will have a chance to perform on the same stage as some of the biggest acts in the world and they need your vote to cross the line ahead of the competition. Gratis Minds is based on the Tweed Coast and features John Doe, JK 47 and Jay Orient performing alternate hip hop. Jon Doe said he thought winning the competition would be great for the group. “It would be amazing to play at Falls - for any aspiring artist to play a big festival like that - they are the golden tickets to Willy Wonka’s’ Factory,” he told The Weekly. “I feel like if your name has been on that festival and you play a good, professional set it really elevates your career, to say nothing of just being on such a big stage.” The brilliantly talented singer Bronte Eve, who is just about to graduate from Kingscliff High School, collaborated with the boys on their single Stroll.

“I met JK 47 at work at Riff Raff Cafe at Caba - we bonded over similar taste in music and I’d always listened to hip-hop,” Bronte said. “They asked me to record with them and the coolest thing with Stroll was that it all came out really quickly; we did it in two days.” Bronte said that she had always wanted to play Falls Festival or Splendour. “It’s my next goal to play something like Falls - I’ll know I’m doing good then,” she said. Jon Doe said that Gratis Minds’ sound was different because of the area they come from. “It’s Australian hip-hop but it’s got a coastal feel to it and there are a lot of other influences,” he said. “We basically represent Cabarita which has always been the home base.” Their single Up Again is the type of song you can’t stop listening to and has won over many fans. You can vote to foster Gratis Minds featuring Bronte Eve to play Falls Festival and give a well-deserved leg up to the career of these brilliant young musicians by going to https://fallsfestival.com/byron-bay/ goings-on/foster-a-band

THE POPULAR Les Peterkin Portrait Prize has recently opened at the Tweed Regional Gallery and Margaret Olley Art Centre celebrating the artistic talent of Tweed Shire primary school students. The exhibition which is open until Sunday, December 2, is a celebration of the artistic talent of local primary school students and one of the Gallery’s most popular exhibitions, and has once again attracted an enormous number of entries and participating schools. Each prize winner, along with the creators of 37 other award-winning and commended works, will have the thrill of seeing their artworks professionally framed and hung in the prestigious setting of the gallery. A further 205 outstanding works will be displayed in folios for the duration of the exhibition. The winners of the annual Les Perkins Portrait Prize for 2018 are Zac Dascoli (years 5 to 7) from Centaur Primary School, Banora Point, Billy Miller (years 8 to 10) from Mount Saint Patrick Primary School, Murwillumbah, and Indira Mansted (years 11 to 13) home schooled.

This year’s theme was set for students to create a portrait that captured themselves in fancy dress. Students were encouraged to explore the pose, costume and facial expressions of their character.

Murwillumbah High School 60-year reunion

Murwillumbah Central Rotary Club members and friends at the dedication of the picnic area.

FORMER MURWILLUMBAH High School students from the intermediate year of 1958 (graduating year 1960) are calling a 60-year reunion to catch up on the “good ol’ days”. The reunion is set to take place on Saturday, October 27, at the Condong Bowls Club from 10am. Murwillumbah resident and 1958 intermediate year student Ken Stovin wrote to The Weekly on Monday to drum up some publicity and call on former students to get involved. Mr Stovin said the year was a particularly talented one with champion swimmers Neville O’Connor, Marion Edwards (Shields), Barbara Budd and 100-metre sprint champion Hughy Small, to name a few. “Students gathering from past years that meet and celebrate is popular and becomes quite nostalgic due to passing years and their ability to look back on what we call the good old days,” Ken said.

“A g r o u p o f s t u d e n t s f r o m Murwillumbah High School, who in common, were attending Murwillumbah in 1958, in their intermediate year felt drawn to celebrate 60 years and wish to get in contact with as many 1958 intermediate year students as possible.” Ke n s a i d t h e fo r m e r s t a ff at Murwillumbah High School during the late 50s included headmaster Russell Goode and his deputy Mr Gorrell with many other well-known teachers at the time including Mr Bartholomew father of champion surfer Wayne “Rabbit” Bartholomew. Ken said in 1958 Murwillumbah was a strong country town with an economy based mostly around agriculture. “It was a great place to live and about half the students from 1958, would gain their intermediate certificates and the remaining students would go on and complete their leaving certificates in 1960,” he said. “Jobs were plentiful, and all were excited about their working future.”

Ken said Murwillumbah was the only public high school in the Tweed district at the time and Tweed Heads High School as well as Kingscliff High School were yet to be constructed. This meant the country school had large classrooms and as many as 300 students in a single year level. “So, you could imagine the amount of school buses arriving at the school in Murwillumbah each morning,” he said. “Each year we had the annual Lismore/ Murwillumbah sports carnivals across all sports. “Saturday movies and Monday night dances were popular, we were young and ready to set the world on fire, rock ‘n’ roll was here to stay.” Ken said the event was a time to allow those to reflect on their past school days. “We can also discover where their work and family life has taken them over the past 60 years,” he said. If you are interested in attending please contact Ross Salmon on 0408 886 349 or Ken Stovin on 0407 678 869.

Picnic site named in honour of Michael Grisedale THE MEMORY and legacy of well-known local identity and member of the Murwillumbah Central Rotary Club, Michael Grisedale, has been honoured on Sunday, September 30, with the naming of a picnic area after him. Michael passed away suddenly in June 2017, suffering a heart attack during a cycling trip across France. Friends of Michael’s gathered to witness the naming of a picnic area and unveiling of a dedication plaque. “A long serving member of Rotary, Michael was a popular member of the cycle riding community of the Tweed and had a wide circle of friends,” Murwillumbah Central Rotary Club Secretary Denis Hallworth said. “Local identity Phil Taylor offered to name an attractive area of a property he owns, in memory of Michael.” A plaque was prepared by members of Rotary who together with a group of Michael’s friends held a dedication ceremony at the picnic area. “Some friends travelled from Inglewood to attend,” Mr Hallworth said. Murwillumbah Central Rotary President Anni Brownjohn spoke at the event. “Although Michael was a quiet person he was widely respected and had many friends, as evidenced by the number who travelled to the ceremony today,” she said.

Police are urging the public to come forward with any information about the incident and can contact Tweed Heads Detectives on (07) 5506 9499 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Man charged with high-range drink driving

A 30-YEAR-OLD Burringbar man has been charged with driving more than three times over the legal limit after he crashed into a parked car at Kingscliff. Police were called to Pearl Street, on Friday, September 28, around 9pm after reports a silver Ford Falcon had allegedly collided with a parked Nissan Maxima. The man was breath tested at the scene and again at the Kingscliff Police Station where he returned a reading of 0.152, which is in the high range. His driver’s licence was immediately suspended and he is scheduled to appear in Tweed Heads Local Court on October 8.

FOUR PEOPLE have been charged with weapons offences after several weapons were allegedly located in a stolen vehicle at Kingscliff on Thursday, September 27. Just before 5pm, Tweed Police officers spotted a stolen Ford Focus in the Beach Hotel carpark and when they entered the hotel a number of people fled. (Thursday 27 September 2018), officers from Tweed/Byron Police District located a stolen Ford Focus parked in the carpark of a hotel on Marine Parade. With the assistance of detectives, Traffic & Highway Patrol officers and Queensland Polair, two men,

both aged 26, were arrested in another vehicle at a nearby shopping centre a short time later. A third man, aged 24, and a 21-year-old woman were arrested in Pearl Street. One of the men, aged 26, was issued a Field Court Attendance Notice for possessing a knife in public place. The woman was issued a Field Court Attendance Notice for possessing a prohibited weapon. They will both appear in court at a later date. During a search of the Ford, police allegedly located and seized several items, including a firearm, a machete, knives and prohibited drugs.

The two men, aged 24 and 26, were taken to Tweed Heads Police Station. The 24-year-old man was charged with driving a stolen vehicle, possessing a shortened firearm (not pistol) without authority, possessing an unregistered firearm in a public place, not keeping a firearm safely (prohibited firearm), custody of knife in a public place, and possessing prohibited drugs. The 26-year-old man was charged with possessing a shortened firearm (not pistol) without authority. Both men were refused bail and appeared at Byron Bay Local Court on Friday, September 28.

Swirling winds and a tricky green, coupled with lady luck also throwing her hat into the ring at times, made conditions difficult for both players. Browning established a skinny lead from the beginning of the dual and held that position throughout the contest with Murray in hot pursuit in a game that could have gone either way.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals With the score on 129-126 in Browning’s favour, after Zone One State Rookies qualifying rounds, this year, 26 ends, a blistering run to the magic 150 ensued. Murray are being conducted at Cherry Street, Ballina. Singles are squeezed out a count of seven on the 28th end, and then scheduled for this Saturday/Sunday, October 6 and 7.

See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone. to spare. Well done, Les Browning. Cudgen Ladies, not to be outdone by their male counterparts bowling prowess, also presented with a great display of quality bowls in their Consistency final as Joan Highfield and Liz Fleming were involved in yet another tough encounter. Fleming dominated throughout the contest with a hard playing Highfield close at hand on the score board in this 120 up game. With the score board on 116-114 in Liz’ favour, Joan pulled out all stops to collect a count of eight on the last end to hit the front and claim victory. A super performance from both these ladies is to be Cudgen Leagues’ “Mr. Consistency” Les Browning and Runner-up Brien Murray commended.

Caleb Ziebell Country Rugby League Player of the Year CUDGEN HORNETS frontrower Caleb Ziebell has taken out the Player of the Year at the Country Rugby League Player of the Year dinner held at the Hyatt Regency Sydney on Friday, September 28, with more than 340 Rugby League officials, volunteers and players in attendance. Ziebel helped take the Hornets to the finals in the NRRRL this year before succumbing to injury. The award is for the best player in NSW and the ACT (excluding metropolitan Sydney) and specifically for Ziebell’s role

in taking the premiership for Northern Rivers in the CRL Under 23s representative side final against the Monaro Colts. NRRRL board member and Executive committee member at Cudgen Hornets Mark Harrison said it was a well-deserved win. “To be there and witness him receiving that was fantastic,” Harrison told The Weekly. “He had no idea he was getting it because they had all the Country Under 23s representative side there, so he didn’t know and neither did I. “We were just blown away - I’m just watching the video of it now.”

Harrison said he got suspicious when one of the CRL stars came over and asked how to pronounce Ziebell’s surname but he wouldn’t say why. “When they started doing the awards I suddenly thought he might get it and I told my wife to get the phone out and start videoing,” Harrison said. “When they called his name out he was just shocked but he deserved it because it doesn’t matter what game he plays in he always plays to the best of his ability. “The CRL staff said they thought he changed the final against the Colts around completely and that

was what got the Northern Rivers team the win.” Harrison said that Ziebell was an exceptionally talented athlete. “The big thing with him because he’s such a freak is that he is also a state cricketer so if he decides to make a career out of sport he has to decide,” he said. “A lot of the junior kids really look up to him - they call him Buddha - and he’s a really great role model to them. “He’s just a credit to the club - his whole family is the same - and I’m glad I know him.

France to keep the race alive heading to Maui for the final event. Gilmore is sounding cool, calm and collected heading into France. “There’s a World Title on the line which is scary but it fires me up. I thrive off that,” Gilmore said. “France is where a lot of things culminate. “I’ve found a type of clarity this year that’s allowed me to really enjoy what I do. “I get a kick out of going to contests and dragging my stuff around the world. “Lakey thinks that I have all the pressure on me this event but I don’t see it that way. “If I win another World Title that would be sick but it’s all icing on the cake at this point.” World number two Lakey Peterson is the only surfer currently in a position to stop Stephanie Gilmore from claiming her seventh World Title in France. The Californian sits 6,915 points below Gilmore. For the men it is the two Brazilians, Filpe Toledo and Gabriel Medina going hammer and tong for the World

Title, but with three events remaining Sunshine Coast surfer, Julian Wilson, is still in the mix, and the conditions in France should give him a chance to peg back the Brazilians’ lead. The beach breaks at Hossegor have been pumping and what I love about this event, is that the call is around 4pm (AEST), so perfect for the evening of surfing by the TV or computer screen. Quinn in the Swing at Cloud 9 Snapper Rocks surfer Quinn Bruce was on cloud 9, at Cloud 9 in the Phillipines, as I write this column with a place in the 3000 Qualifying Series Event. The Snapper surfer has great style and tube sense, which has served him well at Cloud 9. He has performed best of the local surfers, and I hope that by the time this goes to print he will be lifting the winners trophy. Cloud 9 is an awesome barreling right hander, and Quinn’s experience behind the rock at Snapper should serve him well. Catch you in the waves...

Raiders win best team in NSW Country Rugby League

TWEED COAST Raiders have taken out the Clayton Cup at the Country Rugby League Player of the Year Awards. The Clayton Cup is awarded by the Country Rugby League to the NSW country rugby league team with the best overall record for that season. To be eligible, the team must win the highest level of competition in its region. Usually the winner of the Clayton Cup goes through the season undefeated however in exceptional circumstances another team can be selected, as is the case with the Raiders this year. Co-captain Drew Lanston said it was a huge honour. “It’s an outstanding achievement for the club and the team and everyone involved,” he said. “If it wasn’t for them none of this would be possible. “From the top to the bottom everyone involved has got a hand on this trophy and the premiership trophy. “The town, the hillbillies, it’s a credit to everyone.” Mike Ashburn travelled down to pick up the trophy with player Jarred de Thierry. “There was probably 300 there and it felt like the Dally M Awards,” Mike said.

“We dedicated the award to the community and to Justin Cullen because we got together for him.” Vice-President of the club Andrew Wilks said it was an awesome achievement. “Considering we are still the only amateur club in the competition and not only to win the grand final but the cup as well is just a huge effort from the players and the community,” he said. “When the Hillbillies are cheering out there and the crowd the boys lift and it’s just awesome.”

Tweed Coast Raiders President Josh Sattler said that when a club like the Raiders is recognised as the best in the CRL “it is something the whole community can own.” “It proves that every voice cheered, all the volunteers’ efforts, the families sacrifices, the players belief and community’s trust has earned this accolade,” he said. “It has never been a secret that nobody gets paid at the Raiders and that is the first sacrifice as a player you need to put on the table, you must start with sacrifice - the

players are already contributing to the club from day one by doing this, therefore what you put in you will get out. The group we have is so tight and now even more so with what has been achieved and what will be achieved from here. Sattler said the best part was they are all better players now. “They are better football players, a better football club and above all better human beings by building what we all have and all own,” Sattler said.

“The Tweed Coast Raiders have set a new benchmark, achievements aside from the trophy cabinet, our club is a sanctuary for football lovers, football people young and old and a platform for the development of community leaders. “To say, as a president, I am proud is an understatement, it fills my heart to see these people share these memories and this imprint will live long through myself and the whole community.”

Uki Pythons finish off stellar season undefeated and win grand final THE UKI Python’s Women’s Division Five team have won the grand final of the Football Far North Coast competition with a big 3-0 win over Ballina at Lismore on Sunday, September 16. The team also took out the minor premiership and were undefeated all season with one draw early in the season against Ballina. Vice President of the Uki Pythons Football Club Cat North said they had been scrounging to get a team together at the start of the season. “A lot of ladies had left for other clubs but we managed to field 16 players,” Cat said. “We trained every week and with Coach Ben De Villes and it was an amazing effort from Ben to put up with 16 whinging women but he took it pretty sweet. It’s never easy telling your wife (co-captain Carly) and 15 other women what to do.”

The team played the Lismore Thistles in the semi-finals and it came down to a shootout penalty. “We won that 3-2 on penalties,” Cat, who scored the winning goal, told The Weekly. Cat said the team was amazing. “We have a mum and two daughters playing together,” she said. “Lara is the youngest at 15 but we also have players in their mid-50s. “It’s not just a team it’s a family. We’re all really close and it definitely makes you feel part of the community.” The team is sponsored by Bianchetti & Sons, Hardings Earthmoving and the Mt Warning Hotel. “After the grand final win we all jumped on the bus and went back for a big night at the hotel,” Cat said.

“That was great because Brett and his team are lovely and they always look after us.” Cat said that the Uki club is very family orientated. “We try to keep our fees lower than other clubs to keep it inclusive,” she said.

“I have three kids and that was a huge drawcard.” After their win the women’s team will move into Division Four next year. “We have had a lot of interest from other players so hopefully we will be able to field two teams, a Division Four and Five team.

Uki Pythons are the grand final winners

The Division Two men’s team were also equal winners with Lennox Head in their grand final after a power outage at 1-1 caused the game to be stopped. Well done to everyone at the Pythons on a great year.
