Deputy mayor’s 72% allowance increase ‘not an increase’: Mayor Brodie Cowburn brodie@mpnews.com.au FOLLOWING the Victorian Independent Remuneration Tribunal’s decision to grant pay rises to councillors, deputy mayors and mayors across Victoria, Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor Anthony Marsh has released a statement to “set the record straight”.

The mayor stated “the deputy mayor’s allowance has been increased from $34,588 to $59,659. However, this new allowance is not an increase but a correction”.

Cr Marsh said the “correction” was in recognition of how the role of deputy mayor had evolved significantly over recent years.

The article that sparked the response (“Councillors collect healthy

pay rise” The News 23 March 2022) stated the base rate for councillors had increased from $31,444 to $35,972. On top of the $31,444 paid to councillors, the shire has been paying an extra amount as superannuation payments.

Superannuation payments to councillors has been an issue of contention. Councillors were not traditionally recognised as employees of the local governments and therefore not subject to superannuation law.

This resulted in a recommendation from the Local Government (Councillor Remuneration Review) Panel in 2008 to pay an additional amount above the determined rate equivalent to superannuation, or for the council to become an Eligible Local Governing Body (ELGB) under the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Cth) which would effectively render

councillors employees.

Mornington Peninsula Shire confirmed to The News they are not an ELGB, with the effect that councillors are not considered employees for the purpose of superannuation law.

An equivalent sum is paid to councillors and they can choose whether to keep the extra allowance or to “salary sacrifice” the amount into a recognised superannuation fund.

The latest determination rolls the extra allowance paid to councillors in lieu of superannuation into the new base rate.

Cr Marsh said “for too long, standing for council has been restricted to those who are retired or who could afford to work what amounts to a full-time job for less than half of the average full-time wage”.

In a statement sent to The News,

COME AND SEE THE CHICKENS ROAMING FREE IN THE PADDOCK!

councillor David Gill said “In my previous time as a councillor we were not concerned about remuneration. There was no stipend and no claiming of expenses, just a wish to serve our local community.

“When payment to councillors was first introduced in the 1980’s it was meant to give some small recompense for out of pocket expenses and later perhaps workdays missed while on official duties.

“I believe that councillors these days have been well compensated for what I still regard as an honour to be elected to represent our community.”

“I am hearing angry words directed at the media for raising this issue.

Surely the main point is to always have transparency about how ratepayers money is spent.”

The value of the allowance paid to Mornington Peninsula Shire council-

lors is set to increase further from the new determined amount with the final determined allowance of $38,047 per annum from 18 December 2023.

The value of the allowance paid to the Mornington Peninsula Shire deputy mayor is set to increase further from the new determined amount with the final determined allowance of $64,629 per annum from 18 December 2024.

The value of the allowance paid to the Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor is set to increase further from the pre-determination amount of $110,477 to the final determined allowance of $132,573 per annum from 18 December 2025.

The increase represents a 20% increase in mayoral allowance over three and a half years.

30 March 2022

MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire Council has formally resolved to ask the state government to create a new ‘Peri-Regional’ status for the Mornington Peninsula.

They believe the new status would “unlock the funding streams and benefits of a regional classification, while preserving access to metropolitan funding programs and safeguarding our cherished Green Wedge planning protections.”

Council has joined forces with Yarra Ranges Shire to argue for the new ‘Peri-Regional’ status in recognition of the unique rural and urban character of each Shire.

The Green Wedge is currently protected under the Planning and Environment (Metropolitan Green Wedge Protection) Act 2003 (‘MGWPA’).

Removal from a “metropolitan Melbourne” designation without a legislative change to protect the Green Wedge in a ‘Peri-Regional’ area could potentially see the peninsula fall outside of the purview of the existing legislation.

Specifically, s 46AA of the MGWPA lists Mornington Peninsula Shire as part of the “metropolitan fringe planning scheme” and s 46AC of the MGWPA defines what “green wedge land” is as “land that is described in a metropolitan fringe planning scheme as being outside an urban growth boundary”.

The pursuit of a ‘peri-regional’ designation without legislative change appears to open the door for the development of the Mornington Peninsula “Green Wedge”and could result in extensive planning scheme challenges in VCAT by developers and rural landholders attempting to make huge windfalls without consideration

of their impact on future generations.

Mornington Peninsula mayor, Anthony Marsh said “we share the community’s concern that our current metropolitan status does not recognise the unique character of the Mornington Peninsula and leaves us disadvantaged in many ways.”

“The advantage of a ‘Peri-Regional’ status is that it would not require legislative change.

It simply calls for the peninsula to be allowed access to regional funding streams and programs, while maintaining the benefits and Green Wedge protections that a metropolitan classification brings.

“We want to safeguard our Green Wedge planning controls while gaining access to regional funding programs that would unlock the economic potential of our region.

“In the coming months we will be pursuing these priorities vigorously with both the state and federal governments, as well as all election candidates.”

‘Peri-Regional’ status was one of six top advocacy priorities adopted by council at Tuesday’s council meeting. The priorities are: n ‘Peri-Regional’ status for the Mornington Peninsula n Access to recycled water to boost local food production and increase resilience to climate change and bushfires n Support for a performing arts theatre and creative arts precincts n Funding to improve mobile phone and data coverage across the Peninsula n More support to manage our coasts, build resilience to climate change and protect local beaches and piers n Funding to realise the full potential of the Peninsula Trail shared path network

Heritage recommendation for pier THE executive director of Heritage Victoria has announced his recommendation that the Heritage Council of Victoria include the Flinders Pier on the Victorian Heritage Register.

The move is a significant step in the campaign to save Flinders Pier.

As part of the consideration process, Heritage Victoria will invite submissions from the public and interested parties who support (or oppose) the recommendation. There may also be public hearings.

It is expected the assessment process will take around two months, and if it gets listed it must be protected and any work will require a permit from Heritage Victoria.

Flinders Community Association spokesperson Charles Reis said it was unknown how Parks Victoria or the state government would respond to the recommendation; or if the Heritage Council of Victoria would accept the recommendation.

Bu, he said Heritage Victoria’s recommendation and enough public support were the best chances of saving the historic pier.

“So, we still have a long way to go before we can declare victory,” he said.

“As a result, we will continue with our campaign, albeit in a measured way to allow the review process to proceed unimpeded.”

SUPPORTERS of the Mornington Peninsula’s green wedge sites are being urged to get their submissions to the c270morn planning amendment in before the cut-off date of 8 April.

If the c270 amendment is successfully adopted, ten ‘special use zones’ on the peninsula, including part of the former Reg Ansett estate at 60-70 Kunyung Road, Mount Eliza, where Ryman Healthcare plans to build a retirement facility, could be legally reintegrated into the green wedge and given ongoing protection.

The 8.9 hectare Moondah Estate has become a battleground for environmental advocates and symbolic of a larger community fight to protect the peninsula’s disappearing wildlife corridors and open spaces.

Ryman’s proposal to build an $80 million, residential aged care facility and/or retirement village of six four-storey buildings, two four-storey wings attached to the existing mansion, three three-storey buildings, a chapel and 362 car spaces, was rejected by the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal last year.

A new application submitted in August last year for

a slightly smaller Ryman ‘village’ has not allayed community fears of over development.

Former Briars ward councillor Leigh Eustace said the plans were still an “inappropriate” over development of the site, and that the revised number of aged care beds (82), assisted living suites (35) and independent living apartments (104) would not significantly alter the scale of the development, with the main buildings still four storeys high.

Mr Eustace said there were several other factors - apart from the c270 amendment that strengthened arguments to protect the green wedge site, including the state government’s Marine and Coastal Policy, which provides a framework for coastal development and focuses on “retaining and protecting” existing non-urban breaks and uses between costal settlements.

Meanwhile, the push to save what remains of the peninsula’s protected zones from development continues to gather political momentum, with Labor and Liberal both claiming support for protecting land outside the urban growth boundary, but disagreeing over the best way that should be done.

In The News (“Green wedge politics” 15 March), a group

of Liberal MPs and candidates on the peninsula said moving the peninsula to a regional classification, with legislative changes, could provide the same “protections” as green wedge zones, while Labor’s Chris Brayne responded by saying keeping its current ‘metropolitan’ classification would give much stronger green wedge protection and provides surety into the future.

Time is running out for green wedge advocates and there are now less than two weeks left for council to consider submissions to the c270 amendment proposal.

Community group ‘Save Reg’s Wedge’ has turned its focus to appealing directly to planning minister Richard Wynne – who ratified the c270 amendment in December – in the hope that he will call in the Ryman application and make a decision himself.

But the group recognises the odds are long, with Mr Wynne not planning to contest the next election, and any decision not likely to be made before the government falls into caretaker mode.

Cape Schanck kangaroo update

New art series: First Nations artist Lisa Waup created Journeyed as part of an ongoing series that explores the power and peril of the directional sign and its ability to control.

Pictures: Holly Johnston and Supplied

Roadside art a sign a symbol of indigenous journey Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au THE first piece of art in a ‘Billboards’ tour of Victoria by Indigenous artists is being presented by Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery and on show at 2061 Frankston-Flinders Road, Hastings, until 8 May. Mixed-cultural, First Peoples multidisciplinary artist Lisa Waup, along with artists Amrita Hepi, and Steven Rhall, have been commissioned to create new works for ‘Billboards’ in regional Victoria in partnership galleries.

The tour, commissioned by NETS

Victoria, an Australia Council for the Arts initiative to create a national network of visual arts touring, aims to ensure contemporary art continues to reach audiences.

For the first billboard, Waup’s work Journeyed considers the significance of the ubiquitous roadside sign.

The artist said she wanted to make people think about place and land, given that signs direct movement on the “unceded sovereign lands” of First Peoples, and whose authority they rely on.

Waup says Journeyed is part of an ongoing series titled Our Way, that “spans various media (printmaking, sculpture, photography and jewel-

lery) to explore the power and peril of the directional sign and its ability to control, repress and disorientate First Peoples on their own land”.

By reappropriating and reassembling roadside signs, Waup removes their directional value, leaving behind only their symbolic meaning.

By stripping these directives of their context and authority, Waup believes what remains is their sociohistorical legacies, prompting viewers to question the way in which land is navigated and by whose decry.

Waup’s studio-based practice involves the creation of objects which, through symbology and materials, connect her to family, Country, his-

tory and story. Lisa works across weaving, printmaking, photography, sculpture, textiles and installation, eloquently illustrating her life’s journey through discovery and connection.

Curator Jenna Rain Warwick says while a roadside might not be the first place to look for contemporary art, and that at first Waup’s work may seem understated, further viewing reveals the “pastiche beckons to be decoded, a deciphering that talks to the history of land ownership and the insidious control of colonial authority”.

The exhibition is supported by the Victorian government through Creative Victoria.

VOLUNTEER group Save the Kangaroos says discussion “is ongoing” for the early release of the 500-plus kangaroos trapped on private property at Cape Schanck.

Spokesperson Mary Waterman said the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning had agreed that no permits were required if oneway gates were put in place to allow the kangaroos to leave the property of their own volition.

“Discussion is now occurring between the people involved and we hope to see this safe form of release happening very soon, returning the kangaroos to Greens Bush,” she said.

“We are very anxious that the release of the kangaroos is at their pace, gentle and will not place any adults or joeys at risk as wildlife experts have advised that even slow herding may cause the kangaroos to become stressed and injured if jumping into fences.”

Meanwhile, a screening of the ‘Kangaroo a love hate story’ movie will be held at 7pm today, Tuesday 29 March, at Peninsula Cinema Rosebud.

There will be a question-andanswer session with the co-director Mick McIntyre and cast member Greg Keightley after the viewing.

Fire readiness in focus after marina fire Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au POLICE are investigating a boat fire at Blairgowrie Marina on 20 March that engulfed two boats and took six fire units to contain.

The fire has raised concerns about emergency management at the marina and the safeguards for the protection of the sensitive marine environment.

Sorrento and Rye brigades, supported by FRV and Queenscliff Coastguard, responded to several calls to 000 just after 7pm, with crews finding the boats fully alight on arrival.

However, the layout of the Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron marina and access to the boats proved difficult for the emergency services.

CFA Commander Sean Kerr said crews were challenged by the distance between where they could park the truck to where the boats were on fire.

“Hoses had to run about 300 metres from the land down a narrow walkway to the boats in order to extinguish the fire,” he said.

The fire was quickly brought under control, and no other boats were involved.

One resident who lives nearby said the fire highlighted “issues” with disaster management and the safety of people and the environment at the marina, which has been the site of several boats fires in recent years.

The resident, who declined to have her name published, said it was clear from the scene that fire trucks had difficulty accessing the boats, with drive access only to the concrete platform on the Sorrento side of the jetty.

Do you think...

“Presumably they ran hoses along to the western end of the marina where the boats were alight, and they would have used a fire retardant to douse the flames from the fuel tanks,” she said.

The woman said she and other residents were also concerned about the marine environment and the risk of fire-fighting products ending up in the water and potentially presenting a risk to swimmers and marine life.

She said no environmental impact study was completed when the marina was extended in 2017.

“Who will assess the quality of the water around the fire incident and act accordingly,” she asked.

“Who will assess the effects on marine life and sea birds, including little penguins, pied cormorants, pacific and silver gulls.”

The woman, who has lived in the area for more then 40 years, said she was concerned for the safety of everybody who used the marina.

“The adjacent Blairgowrie jetty attracts commercial dive and snorkel tours, including night dives, so that people can swim under the pier to see the myriad of coloured sea sponges and the marine creatures they support including sea horses, crabs and fish,” she said.

“And of course, there are always people fishing from the jetty...the marina side of the jetty even proudly boasts a sign ‘Marine Sanctuary - No Fishing’.

There have been several fires at the marina is recent years, including a mysterious fire in January, 2018, where a man was seen leaping into the water from a burning boat and hitching a ride from the scene on a passing boat.

In another fire in 2016, a man suffered burns to his face after a boat caught fire and he had to be taken to hospital.

Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron management was contacted for comment.

Rugged Tasmania a lure for peninsula painter RED Hill artist Jennifer Riddle has that enviable skill of being able to capture the idiosyncrasies of each landscape, whether it’s the iconic rolling green scenes of the peninsula, or the ethereal but majestic vistas of Tasmania.

Riddle, who has just been awarded the prestigious 2022 Glover Prize for landscape art, aims and succeeds to encapsulate the strength and vulnerability of the natural world in her work, and hopes people can “feel the spirit” of the environment when they view her work.

Her winning Glover Prize entry, entitled ‘Wanderings of the Past and Now’, is a realistic and at the same time surreal and misty depiction of the beautiful Tasmanian landscape around Port Davey.

“The magic of painting is that there are a lot of emotions that go into it that are beyond the pigment,” she said.

“I hope my works are a bridge that allows

people to rekindle something that’s innate within all of us – a love of nature and its soulfulness.

“I hope that the response people get when they see my work is that they feel they can walk into it.”

Riddle said it was a “complete honour” to be awarded the prize after entering on 10 previous occasions, being awarded people’s choice twice, and being a finalist five times.

She is also only the third woman to win the prize, which was started in 2004 ago by Tasmanian artist John Glover.

“I am incredibly proud to be the third woman to win, and to have the recognition of my fellow artists and the highly respected judges,” she said.

Riddle’s painting is a way of expressing her love of the world around her, but has also been a cathartic experience to help her deal with the pain of losing her sister Andrea, who died at 22,

and of dealing with the consequences of man’s sometimes harsh interaction with nature.

“When Andrea was sick I used to come to the hills of Red Hill to reflect and take in the beauty,” she said.

“She and I always stalked about moving to the country and getting back to painting, so it was largely her encouragement that saw me do that.

“I love nature and that is the driving force of my work, trying to represent that deep feeling of awe I get from seeing what’s around me”.

Riddle’s Tasmanian landscapes have for years focussed on the region around Port Davey, which is a rugged, pristine, remote landscape that captivated her instantly on a visit seven years ago. She has since painted that particular landscape about 70 times.

Riddle has won $50,000 and a bronze maquette of John Glover.

Setting the scene: Jennifer Riddle is only the third woman to win the prestigious Glover Prize.

Stolen Napoleonic artifact recovered Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au ONE of ten priceless Napoleon Bonaparte artefacts stolen from The Briars Museum at Mount Martha in 2014 has been recovered, after it appeared on an online selling site.

A rare miniature portrait of Napoleon Bonaparte’s wife Josephine was allegedly discovered online by a Sydney art dealer, who bought the portrait on eBay for $250 before re-

alising it was one of the items stolen eight years ago.

Speaking to the ABC on Thursday, Leigh Capel said he was stunned when he realised the portrait had been stolen.

Mr Capel said he immediately contacted the Mornington Peninsula Gallery, which houses the rest of the Napoleon collection after it was moved there after the 2014 theft.

Ten items were taken from the collection during the 2014 theft, including locks of Napoleon’s hair and

a silver inkwell set with three gold Napoleons that were allegedly in his pocket when he died.

The collection of artefacts was put together by Dame Mable Brooks, who was the great-granddaughter of early Mount Martha settler Alexander Balcombe, who had family ties to the French emperor.

Police statements at the time said thieves had “jemmied open cabinets” and taken items that also included a ring, a ribbon inscribed by Napoleon in 1815 and a snuff box.

On Thursday, Victoria Police were unable to confirm or deny if any other items had been located, but confirmed the investigation is ongoing.

The story of how Napoleon’s belonging came to be in Mount Martha has captivated historians.

In 1976 Balcombe’s great-great grandsons, the a’Beckett brothers, donated the homestead with surrounding garden to the National Trust and shire in memory of their mother, and sold the farm to the

shire.

The Balcombe Homestead housed part of the unique Napoleonic Collection, based on personal memorabilia given by Napoleon to the Balcombe family at their ‘Briars’ home at St Helena, a British Overseas Territory, during his exile on the island.

It was later added to by Dame Brookes, and includes a copy of Napoleon’s death mask.

The Briars Homestead could not be contacted for comment.

RESIDENTS and users of optional clothing beach, Sunnyside North Beach in Mount Eliza, are encouraged to have their say on the beach’s future before 21 April.

The beach has been a clothing optional beach and popular with naturists since 1986, and is the only nudist beach along Port Phillip Bay. However, Mornington Peninsula Shire Council reports say on-and-off-lockdowns and travel restrictions over the past two years had changed visitorship, with more locals exploring their 5km radius rediscovering the beach.

The shire and is now asking the wider Mornington Peninsula community and all visitors who use the beach to register their preferred future for the site.

Results from our survey will help the council with their deliberations about the ongoing status of the beach, however, the decision to remove the clothing optional status from Sunnyside North Beach rests with the state government.

GRASS mowing on the Mornington Peninsula is set to become a little ‘greener’ that usual, with the shire adding six new electric mowers the its growing electric fleet.

The EcoTeq mowers will exclusively service contracts to maintain the area’s open spaces and parklands, and are Australia’s first zeroemissions commercial mowers, which replace diesel mowers.

Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor Cr Anthony Marsh said sustainability was the future.

“One of our Climate Emergency Plan actions is to encourage the greening of our supply chain. Another is to ensure greater sustainability requirements in our maintenance contracts,” he said.

“It’s fantastic to see Ventia reducing their carbon footprint by switching to greener technologies. It’s a win for our community on many levels: reducing carbon emissions and noise, while improving air quality.”

Ventia general manager Plant Mitchell Carpenter said the move would support Mornington Peninsula Shire to achieve its target of net-zero emissions by 2040 under its Climate Emergency Plan.

What’s old is new again A $250,000 refurbishment of the Ballam Park Homestead is complete.

The ratepayer funded maintenance was undertaken after an electrical fault at the homestead.

Work has now been completed on the project, which has included the installation of a CCTV camera system and external LED lighting, painting, rewiring, and replacement of rotting timber.

The Ballam Park Homestead is Frankston’s oldest house, having been built in 1855. It now houses a museum, cafe and resource centre.

Frankston Historical Society President Glenda Viner said that her organisation’s members are “excitedly looking forward to reopening the homestead and will make an announcement soon.”

“As soon as we can, we want to reopen,” she said. “The works are absolutely wonderful and have transformed our historical jewel in the crown.”

The Ballam Park Homestead is listed on the Historic Buildings Council Register in Victoria For more information on the Ballam Park Homestead and the Frankston Historical Society visit frankstonhs.org.au

RED Hill CFA has urged people wanting to burn off on their properties to be mindful of local vineyards with before burning off.

Despite fire restrictions being lifted on 29 March, the brigade’s Sam Hill has asked land owners to consider holding off their clean up until Easter.

“We understand everyone will be keen to keep cleaning up and getting rid of burn piles,” he said on social media.

“If we could please ask that we be mindful that all our local vineyards are still picking fruit up until Easter approximately and they, like the rest of us, have had a tough couple of years.

“If we can avoid smoke damage to their crops by delaying your non-urgent burn offs by a couple of weeks it would be greatly appreciated.”

Burn-offs must be registered at burnoffs@ esta.vic.gov.au or by phoning 1800 668511.

Esso generators good for the environment As a proud long-standing member of the Hastings community for over 50 years, Esso is always looking at innovative ways to enhance our operations and improve environmental outcomes.

You may have read in last week’s The News about a new emissions reduction project we are undertaking at our Long Island Point plant, which each day plays a critical role in the supply of essential energy to Victorian households and businesses, as well as providing many local jobs and supporting the wider community.

Esso is investing $120 million in the best available emissions reduction technology so that we can alternatively manage excess ethane gas and reduce the need to flare when our downstream customer experiences planned or unplanned maintenance and can’t accept ethane.

Flaring is a safety mechanism and rather than flaring the excess gas and the black smoke that can sometimes result, this project will significantly reduce the need for the site to flare. The project involves the installation of three small, modern, low emissions, efficient ethane power generation units that will transform a waste stream into an alternative beneficial product.

The units enable us to convert excess ethane gas into 35-40 megawatts of electricity to power Victorian homes, and ensure we can maintain our reliable supply of natural gas across the east coast of Australia.

The new project also features enhanced air monitoring, which in addition to our plant’s current air pollution detection protocols and systems, ensures that we are quick to respond in the event of any production upsets.

As the energy transition takes shape in Australia, Esso remains committed to utilising the latest advanced technology to ensure our operations remain efficient, can meet local energy needs and reduce environmental impacts.

We expect there will be minimal impacts to the community from the project construction, which is set to take place within our site during 2022. If you would like to learn more about the project, please get in touch with me via communityANZ@exxonmobil.com David McCord, Long Island Point Plant Manager, Esso Australia

Appeal to news outlets An appeal to the potential power of the media.

This is not Russia’s or Moscow’s war; it is Putin’s war. Any reference to this war should clearly acknowledge the sole perpetrator, Putin; an evil monster and a traitor shaming his own people. Referring to him as President is a dignity he is unworthy of.

Putin is egotistical, power and control hungry, as well as greed and wealth driven.

Putin seems to want to build a European empire for his own glory regardless.

Putin has no regard for lives, Russian or others. He has the means and armaments to flatten Ukraine and cities beyond.

Fear of him taking things nuclear has given him the edge. He and his henchmen know global communication equates to global and local awareness.

They would be well aware that seeking glory and being hated are at odds. Surely the likes of this, is for the moment, kerbing him mentally, and his war tactics.

Prime Ministers and Presidents cannot take advantage of this tack for the fear of the psycho effect and reactions of a monster but news in general, carefully presented, might.

What have news and media got to lose? If this war could end as a result of global awareness and loathing maybe it is worth a try.

John Nixon, Mornington

Coal to Ukraine?

If it wasn’t such a shockingly serious subject I would have thought the Federal Government attempt to aid the people of Ukraine was a joke.

A boatload of coal? Seriously, when those people are being killed every day we send them coal? Not medical supplies or food.

What were the Clowns of Canberra thinking to embarrass us in this way?

Roll on the Federal election.

Pay increase for councillors Before too many jump on board and ridicule the new pay rise of councillors, let’s remember that councils paid an hourly rate to councillors in the past.

Such a scheme resulted in many councillors boosting their pay packets by making sure meetings went over the hour so that even by five minutes, paid the councillors for that hour.

However, since councils have amalgamated a fairer distribution of funds allocated to councillors, deputy mayors and mayors: it is called the Independent Remuneration Tribunal.

Support for Zoe Fin Fowler is a Labor apparatchik, working for the ALP Candidate for Flinders, and knows nothing about Zoe McKenzie. (“No Greg Hunt” Letters 22/3/22) I have known Zoe since primary school, and like me, she spent the whole of the summers here, in Dromana, Rye and Portsea beaches.

She often stayed with my family in Dromana, while her mum had to work in the city as an oncall chest surgeon.

Zoe bought a house here ten years ago, it’s the only property she has ever owned.

She has been committed to her community even though she has always had a huge career, in law, business, and public service – taking her around the world.

But this is her home, and has been for years.

I am disappointed the MPNG would publish such rubbish.

Julia Doyle, Dromana

Character assassination I find it both annoying and frustrating when writers like the letter written by Fin Fowler (“No Greg Hunt” Letters 22/3/22) write what can only be described as “character assasinations” with regard to Zoe McKenzie our candidate for Flinders.

Zoe’s bio is outstanding and includes but not limited to the following: Honours degrees in Arts and Law at Melbourne University and was the recipient of the German Government scholships to study in Germany.

Practised industrial relations and employment law as a Senior Associate at Freehills and also reported to the CEO at KPMG. Served in senior political and policy roles in Howard, Baillieu and Abbott Governments in law, education, communications and the arts.

Established her own Trade and Investment Advisory organisation in 2016 to help Australian businesses to utilise the free-trade network in the UK, EU and India.

Zoe until very recently had been on the boards of NBN Co, the Australian Council for the Arts, Committee for Mornington Peninsula and the National Careers Institute. In addition, Zoe serves on numerous advisory boards.

Zoe has a long established presence on the Mornington Peninsula.

An avid scuba diver Zoe was deeply involved in the community campaign to protect the giant Australian spider crabs along the Southern Peninsula in December January 2020/2021.

Zoe has worked closely with the Mornington Peninsula Foundation to support programs of literacy for primary school children at Rosebud, Capel Sound, Tootgarook and Western Port.

Zoe is also working with the team at Headspace to grow its presence in both Rosebud and Hastings Zoe is a volunteer at the Sorrento Sailing Couta Boat Club and she is on the water most weekends in Sorrento as part of the race manaagement team at the sailing club.

Clearly, Zoe McKenzie has the education, experience in both government and private enterprise as well as an amazing practical experience in community activities on the Peninsula.

John Parrent, Dromana

AGL anniversary Tuesday 29 March 2022 marks the first anniversary of the rejection of the proposed AGL gas import jetty and pipeline project at Crib Point.

Minister for Planning Richard Wynne MP

assessed the AGL gas project and concluded that marine discharges from the AGL and APA project “… would have unacceptable effects on the environment in Western Port, which is listed as a Ramsar wetland of international significance.”

He said “… It’s very clear to me that this project would cause unacceptable impacts on the Western Port environment and the Ramsar wetlands – it’s important that these areas are protected.”

As a Crib Point resident, I was very pleased that the flawed AGL gas project was rejected and withdrawn.

Sincere thanks must go to Mornington Peninsula Shire Council, past and present Councillors and the Strategic Planning team for analysing the AGL project and supporting local residents and community groups to oppose the gas project.

Appropriate light industrial development should be approved on the Mornington Peninsula but not if it puts our community or environment at risk of harm.

AGL should have listened to our local community and saved $130 million..

Dale Stohr, Crib Point

Zoe contributes Some twenty-seven years ago I moved to Sorrento into what had been my husband’s holiday home – I live here permanently, love it, and contribute to it, in spite of the fact I only moved here.

I ask residents to consider this before voting for Zoe McKenzie.

She has done what hundreds do – move into their holiday homes, become permanent residents, and contribute to the community. It is beyond the scope, even of Fin Fowler of Mornington (“No Greg Hunt” Letters 22/3/22), to know why anyone might move to Sorrento. The fact that it is a glorious place to live might have something to do with it.

And how wonderful that we have a candidate so committed that she would put herself through a second preselection! A not entirely pleasant process at any time, and one that many politicians fail at their first attempt.

Why would we not want a ‘career politician’?

Personally, I want to know that my representative is looking on the role as a career, not just something to do between other activities. And Zoe McKenzie has already proven herself capable of a successful career outside of politics, unlike many Labor politicians who have spent their whole working life within the Labor machine.

A highly qualified lawyer, Zoe has run her own business advising industry how best to take advantage of the many Free Trade agreements we now have. She is a member of various boards ranging in scope from the Arts Council to the NBN. She is also a board member of the Committee for Mornington Peninsula as well as being active in other local groups.

And yes, she has spent some of her working life advising MPs on matters to do with her areas of expertise – particularly trade and the provision of education. Should she be denigrated for this?

Helen Gleeson, Blairgowrie

Shire accountability So, our councillors have empowered the chief executive officer to go and broker a deal with the proprietors of Sorrento’s Continental Hotel project, as they appear to be objecting to the Shire’s terms and conditions of the licence to occupy the public footpath for their (permanent) outdoor dining area.

But it begs the question: Who gave the developers the go ahead to commence construction of their ‘nearly completed’ dining structure on public land, without first having squared away the terms and conditions of the contractual right to occupy?

Presumably, such a decision would fall to the Shire’s chief executive officer, Mr John Baker; the person who is now charged with the responsibility to negotiate the outcome that the council has approved!

The only card that Mr Baker would appear to have left in his armoury, should the developer refuse to accept the council-approved licence fee schedule, is to instruct the developer to remove its structure(s) and reinstate the footpath, “in the absence of a licence to occupy that is acceptable to council”. Given that he, as the Shire’s most senior executive, would most probably have granted permission to commence construction without an agreed form of licence duly executed, it will be nigh on impossible for him to now act in the Shire’s best interest and tell them to remove the structure if they don’t accept the licence terms and conditions.

The Shire council has been placed in an invidious position by its executive management team; a situation solely of the Shire executives’ own making, and it calls for a detailed explanation from Mr Baker to the community as to how this situation came about.

Kangaroo harvesters?

Those readers of a certain age will have noticed our use of English changing. Refinement is now relegated to sugar and other unhealthy edibles, and gentility is relegated to the uncool past.

In emails “dear” and “yours” is replaced with “hi” and “cheers”. What does cheers mean? In TV advertising people gulp takeaways while proclaiming “I don’t care” and “shuddup and take my money”. Actually this last one has a way to go - we usually “grab” these days rather than take.

So imagine my surprize at the gentility of the Victorian government services department who offer to find “kangaroo harvesters” for bothered property owners. Not killers, shooters, slaughterers or cullers, but “harvesters.” Gentle familyloving kangaroos, a treasured part of our iconic wildlife, have now apparently become a crop, a commodity to be “harvested”. Telecommunications companies now referring to electromagnetic “energy” instead of “radiation”, which is associated with harm, is one manipulative strategy. But “harvesting” kangaroos? This is dehumanized and goes too far. Our human qualities of empathy for our fellow creatures need to be honoured, not manipulated away by language.

Paula Polson, Dromana

Aged care crisis The failure of successive governments to respond meaningfully to the crisis in aged care has prompted me to put my hand up to replace the Aged Care Minister in his seat of Flinders. After years of advocating from the sidelines, it is clear aged care needs a strong advocate in parliament.

The aged care system is broken. Numerous inquiries, including a royal commission, have revealed evidence of poor care, negligence, neglect, abuse and assault.

We know what needs to be done. The solution to the crisis starts with transparency and accountability.

I have spent six years trying to improve the aged care system on behalf of older people and families. This has been done as an unpaid advocate with no government funding.

The Aged Care Minister Greg Hunt and Minister for Aged Care Services Richard Colbeck claim that “the Morrison Government has achieved significant reform across the five pillars of its five-year plan to deliver respect, care and dignity for every senior Australian”.

“We responded to the (Aged Care royal commissioners’) recommendations and are now implementing this once-in-a-generation reform that puts senior Australians first,” Minister Hunt said.

Seriously? There has been practically no progress on most of the recommendations one year after the royal commissioners released their final report.

If I am elected, I will continue to fight for aged care, but with much more influence as a member of parliament.

Dr Sarah Russell, Voices of Mornington Peninsula endorsed Independent Candidate

Support Council’s Affordable Housing I urge people to support Council’s initiative in providing four parcels of vacant council owned land in areas of high public housing need and calling for Specialised Social Housing Agencies to lodge an Expression of Interest in developing affordable homes for people in our Shire.

The need for affordable public rental housing on the Mornington Peninsula has been desperate for years and is getting worse.

Please consider getting behind these proposals which are designed to house your family members, friends and neighbours who may have struggled for years in the face of rising rent and insecure accommodation, even homelessness.

There are many people over the years who have had to relocate away from family and friends and everything familiar, even though some have lived here for generations, due to unaffordable rent and house price increases.

This housing initiative by our Council is for people like them and deserves to be supported.

Esther Gleixner, Flinders

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

It’s Nobody’s Asphalt – Road Works Are Melting My Brain

By Stuart McCullough I QUIT. Don’t try talking me out of it, for my mind is as made up as the curriculum vitae I submitted to the local IGA during year 11 in the hope of securing casual work after school. (I never heard back. Perhaps they were unconvinced by my claim that I invented ‘Wite-Out’.) I am not for turning. So much so that if you tied me to a carousel right now, I’d slowly spin against the flow to ensure I remained in a consistent position. That’s how committed I am. After many months of thinking it over I have decided this – I am never leaving home.

You’d think that after all we’ve endured over the past two years I’d be itching to run through the front door, regardless of whether it had been opened or not. That getting up from the couch and seeing a silhouette of what appears to be moss growing on the couch cushions would be enough to inspire me to take action, but no. I am over leaving the house, not because I am desperate to stay indoors but because I am keen to avoid that which is waiting for me. I speak, of course, of the traffic.

Traffic is back. I hadn’t missed it. After two years of having the streets pretty much to myself if, indeed, I was permitted to set foot outside the house, I can’t help but notice that things have, if not returned to normal, then slowed down to a pace that roughly resembles the normal we all used to know. But as much as I’m not enjoying the gridlock caused by a greater number of cars, it has been exacerbated by one thing – road works.

There are road works in plague proportions. On balance, I liked it better when roads didn’t work and simply lazed about all day, letting automobiles drive over them. It was simple and everyone knew how it worked. But this summer has been different. Roads everywhere have been getting a spruce up, meaning that some of them are closed and those that aren’t closed have detours in place that, invariably, send you to Geelong, even if you live in Mentone.

I was trying to get to Williamstown at the time.

Little did I know that all the roads in and out were

subject to road works. The turn off was closed entirely. Granted, there was the option of arriving by sea, but my boat is currently in dry dock and I have a heightened fear of pirates. All the remaining roads were detours. Even the detours had detours. There were arrows pointed every which way. In fact, there were more arrows than an ar-

chery competition.

Every conceivable type of road works were represented. There was ‘road closure with no viable alternative’. There was a healthy selection of ‘four lanes down to one’, to say nothing of ‘reduced speed limit but, ultimately, no evidence of actual road works at all.’ Impressively, instead of this activity being somehow coordinated to reduce

inconvenience, it had been deliberately designed to generate the greatest level of disturbance imaginable. Some might see this chronic lack of coordination and chalk it up to poor management. I, however, believe it to be an act of evil genius.

The main road in to the suburb has now reopened, but then closes again, every night at 9pm.

It’s like having Cinderella’s carriage turn into a pumpkin daily instead of only on special occasions. I am unsure, at this point, whether this situation is temporary. Better still, they don’t tell you that the road is closed until it’s too late to do anything about it. It’s entrapment. Before you know it, you’ve been detoured and are on your way to Geelong. Possibly forever.

It’s my own fault, I guess. I traded in my last car and was considering getting a helicopter, but ended up settling for a Volkswagen. It’s a choice I’ve come to regret. It was a compromise I made only after learning that the ‘Whopper Copter’ can’t actually fly. My faith in humanity as well as fast food restaurant playgrounds totally shattered, I now spend each day being sent to Geelong and wishing that I owned my own helicopter.

Enough is enough. Eventually I cracked and decided the best way to deal with road works was to avoid them entirely by not leaving the house.

The first few days were fine until, this morning, I was diverted while travelling through the kitchen on my way to the bathroom before being forced to wait for fifteen minutes for a truck to unload. I won’t be surprised if, next time I step outside the door, I find myself in down town Geelong.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

Presumably, traffic slowed to about forty kilometers an hour as the paving took place. I am now directing all my energies to making my own teleporting machine using an empty ice cream container, a can of WD-40 and some French mustard.

The results, to date, are mixed. But as I maintain my efforts to travel through space using common household objects, I look forward to the day when I can travel from A to B without visiting the rest of the alphabet. To say nothing of Geelong. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

In reply Mrs Randall said she was very pleased to assist in any way possible.

A strong committee was appointed.

Songs were also rendered by Miss Christie, a talented visitor to the

district.

Afternoon tea was provided. *** A SALE of five valuable shop sites takes place at Carrum on Saturday, 8th April, at 3 o’clock.

The land is right opposite Carrum station, and adjoins Seacombe House.

Back in the game: Coach Marc Bressan revs up participants from the MPJFL Academy. Picture: Supplied

Junior footy looks to reconnect after covid Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au COMMUNITY sport is about to make waves on the Mornington Peninsula again, with the Mornington Peninsula Junior Football League in the process of building its numbers and reconnecting with schools for a great season ahead.

The league’s administrator, Ben Lawrence, said sport had taken a huge hit over the last few seasons, and the league was in a fight to keep partici-

pation rates at a steady number.

It is about to roll out a project called the MPJFL School Network, which involves interacting with schools to promote the benefits of playing organised community sport.

Mr Lawrence said the MPJFL was a community-focused organisation committed to creating positive experiences for junior participants, and tangible participation outcomes for clubs, like it has done for 51 years.

“As we come out of covid, our league and our clubs are always looking for new players to sign up and

play football within the MPJFL,” he said.

The league is made up of 14 clubs that stretch across the peninsula and offers age groups from under 9s (starting at 7) to under 17s boys and under 18s girls.

Mr Lawrence said playing organised community sport came with many benefits for children and young adults, teaching important life skills and greatly impacting on participants physical, emotional, social, and mental health.

“To be proactive and try to stimu-

late registrations, we are launching the ‘MPJFL School Network’, which is a program that has been offered to all schools in the Mornington peninsula region,” he said.

“The MPJFL School Network is our way of establishing relationships with schools on the Mornington Peninsula and we are extremely excited to roll it out in the coming weeks.”

Mr Lawrence said the ‘School Network’ was the starting point in having more interaction with schools, and provided schools at no cost with promotional material, MPJFL

footballs, facilitation of a coaching workshop for PE department staff, and a three-week curriculum-based program labelled the ‘MPJFL Footy Carnival’, which will lead into Round 1 and hopefully generate interest.

“This is an extremely important time period for community sport, and we need to ensure that kids in our region are getting active and playing organised sport,” he said.

Noonan’s fly flag for locals on Cup day HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou IN a rarity for the Mornington races, it was looking as though no Mornington-based trainer would get a win at the feature Mornington Cup meeting on Saturday 26 March until the local Tony Noonan stable struck glory in the last.

Despite jumping as a $20 outsider in the field, the consistent It’s Tornado Storm flew the flag for the locals swooping around the field to win comfortably by two lengths.

In front of a crowd of 5,000, trainer Tony Noonan was ecstatic to get the result on Cup day with his son, Jake Noonan, also riding the winner.

“A local horse hadn’t won all day and it’s always been a special day this,” Tony Noonan said post-race.

“It was always a good day even when it used to be on the Wednesday, but it has (gone to another level). It’s a terrific track, it’s a terrific club and I’m just so thankful we were able to win one.”

Noonan has had the five-year-old gelding in his care since March last year and has missed the placings just once in those nine starts.

He put the consistent performances down to the hard work done behind the scenes.

“My staff have done just a super job,” he said.

“It’s a big fairytale type of result... it doesn’t always happen. They put in a lot of work behind the scenes. They spoiled him rotten and there’s a good reason for it.”

In the feature $300,000 Mornington Cup (2400m), the Chris Waller-trained Crystal Pegasus fought off the race-favourite Pondus in the straight to cement his spot in the spring’s Caulfield Cup.

Winners are grinners: Mornington-based trainer Tony Noonan and son Jake Noonan combine to win the last race on Mornington Cup day. Picture: Supplied.

Hastings prepares for exciting season

The five-year-old gelding continued the successful run of European imports in the Mornington Cup, with them also winning the previous two editions of the race (Mount Popa, 2021 and Aktau, 2020).

The European imports provided the trifecta in this year’s Cup which saw a field of seven lineup.

The other feature on the day, the Listed Hareeba Stakes (1200m) was taken out by a roughie, Not an Option ($41), who camped behind the speed and fended off the challenge of the racefavourite Superium to win by a length.

It continued the hot run of trainer Michael Moroney and jockey Patrick Moloney who combined to win the Group 1 Newmarket Handicap a fortnight ago.

HASTINGS Football Netball Club is looking forward to an uninterrupted season in 2022 and has planned an exciting season of men’s and women’s football and netball.

Following two badly disrupted seasons due to Covid restrictions, the Club has been extremely active in preparing for the upcoming season and beyond.

The Club is placing great importance on the development of its juniors at all levels and is working closely with Hastings Junior Football Club to develop a well-structured Junior Development program.

To head up that program the Clubs have been extremely fortunate in obtaining the services of highly regarded Mark Smart who has been appointed by HJFC as its Head of Coaching and

HASTINGS FNC

Development.

Mark is very well known and respected throughout the football industry and he comes to our club with vast experience after having worked extensively in a variety of positions at AFL and NAB Cup level.

Mark will also continue to run our Auskick program which has continued to grow since he became involved during the previous two years.

The Club is excited to announce the appointment of long-term Hastings player Dan Lehmann as Coach of HFNC Women’s football team to replace John Mitchell who has stepped from the role he has held since the Club first formed its women’s football team.

The Club is also pleased to announce the appointment of Natu Tauti who has crossed from Pines FNC and has joined the Blues as it’s “A Grade” Netball Coach.

It’s two in a row for Strikers SOCCER

Strikers light up: Cooper Andrews of Peninsula Strikers holds off an Old Scotch opponent at Ballam Park on Saturday night.

Picture: Darryl Kennedy

By Craig MacKenzie PENINSULA Strikers have made their best start to a league season since 2016.

A revamped senior squad under new coach Donn Delaney relied on a 22nd minute Cooper Andrews shot from inside the area to record a 1-0 win over Old Scotch at Ballam Park on Saturday evening.

The result follows a 2-1 opening round win in what is Delaney’s first senior coaching job.

He was unavailable last weekend along with four players who all were forced to isolate.

“We’re a tight-knit group so handing the reins over to (reserves coaches) Steve Shephard and Jake Priest was easy,” Delaney said.

Strikers president Adrian Scialpi was delighted with the league campaign so far.

“These results are significant and it’s a really positive start considering we’ve got a senior team with an average age of just 22,” he said.

“This is the direction we wanted to go in and so far the boys have stepped up and are really responding to the challenge.”

However the weekend didn’t start well for local clubs with Langwarrin losing 3-1 away to Pascoe Vale in NPL2 on Friday while Frankston Pines had to settle for a 1-1 home draw with South Yarra on the same night.

Pascoe Vale broke the deadlock in the 35th minute when Mohamed Habib sent Terence Carter clear on the right of the area and he struck a firm shot past Langy debutant keeper Jake Richardson and inside the far post.

Richardson was a late replacement for Fraser Maclaren who was suffering from a severe migraine.

Six minutes later it was 1-1 after a slick interpassing move involving Tommy Youngs, Ryan Paczkowski and James Kelly with the latter finishing superbly from just outside the area.

The second half was a sorry affair for the visitors who went 2-1 behind in the 61st minute when Bilal Habib set up Mohamed Habib for a low left-foot shot from inside the area.

Langy right back Sammy Orritt was shown a straight red after dragging down Bilal Habib in the 87th minute and Aydin Mustedanagic’s fine free kick sealed Langy’s fate.

Pines played the majority of the South Yarra clash with 10 men after former club captain Graham Hill was shown a second yellow card and sent off just before half-time.

Aaran Currie scored direct from a corner in the 62nd minute but South

Yarra substitute Jonathon Bithell levelled seven minutes later.

Pines’ left back Christian Malgioglio suffered a dislocated knee in the 85th minute and was stretchered off.

Malgioglio was due to see a specialist on Tuesday.

In State 1 Mornington sits on top of the ladder after a 4-0 away win over Warragul United last weekend.

The Seagulls took just six minutes to open their account when a fine long ball over the top by Sam Scott sent Josh Hine through.

Hine held off his defender then slotted the ball past advancing Warragul keeper Liam Andersen.

Hine struck again right on half-time when he again got onto the end of a through ball and rounded Andersen before tucking it away to make it 2-0.

The visitors went further ahead in the second half when a Danny Brooks corner to the back post was headed back across goal by Josh Heaton and substitute Tom Wood had no trouble slotting home his second goal in as many weeks.

An excellent Brooks through ball in the 88th minute sent John Maclean clear and although Andersen did well to save Maclean’s first attempt he was helpless as the former Langwarrin and Fitzroy City player made no mistake from the rebound.

In State 2 Skye United drew 1-1 away to Heatherton United last weekend but was stunned by a disallowed goal by referee Emanoyel Haractsis.

Ali Sanad had put the home side ahead in the 28th minute but Mitch Blake levelled 10 minutes later when Marcus Collier headed on for Blake to finish.

Controversy erupted in the 60th minute when Haractsis appeared to initially acknowledge that an Alex van Heerwarden header had crossed the goal line.

A consultation with the assistant referee ensued and play resumed with a dropped ball.

After the match images appeared on social media indicating that the ball had crossed the line which only added to Skye’s frustration over the incident.

In other news Baxter hopes to have Jack Buttery and Matt McDermott available for Saturday’s big State 4 derby against Somerville in Tyabb.

This is the first local derby of the season and Baxter’s senior squad has been hit with injury and unavailability in recent weeks.

Lawrence Komba was injured early in Baxter’s round 1 clash and will miss the Somerville game while Daniel Fernandez was sent off in that season opener and received a three-match suspension.

He pleaded guilty to the charge reducing his suspension by one match and as Baxter had a bye in round 2 Fernandez won’t be available until round 5.

Somerville goes into the clash at full strength.

“We’ve got great depth which presents a selection headache,” Somerville coach Lee Barber said.

“The lads are really looking forward to playing our first game at home where we have all agreed that this year it will be a fortress and we intend to make it tough for anyone who comes to Tyabb.”

Somerville went down 1-0 away to Sandown Lions on Saturday while Baxter had a bye after its opening round draw at home with Endeavour United.

There’s a healthy rivalry between these sides and the presence of former Somerville player-coach Dave Greening in Baxter colours adds to the anticipation of what should be a great contest.

In other State 4 news a second half collapse by visitor Chelsea enabled Endeavour United to swamp the local side 7-2 at Reema Reserve last weekend.

It was 2-2 at half time with William Ong scoring both Chelsea goals but a second-half hat-trick from Peter Yin-

ka-Kehinde, including two goals in the first five minutes of the restart, proved too much for Carlo Melino’s outfit.

In State 5 normal service has been resumed as far as Mentone is concerned.

Two games, two wins and top of the league.

On Saturday Mentone demolished Bunyip District 5-1 at Mentone Grammar Playing Fields.

Bunyip’s cause wasn’t helped when Joel Witherdin was sent off in the 35th minute but Mentone had to wait until first-half injury time before hitting the target through Tyler Pollard.

Three minutes into the second half Wilhelm Rudzevecuis made it 2-0 when he headed home from a corner.

Bunyip’s Mark Comini scored from the penalty spot in the 70th minute but two minutes later Marcus Spivey restored the home side’s two-goal cushion after great work by Joe Dunbar.

James Hilton’s 89th minute penalty and a second for Spivey took care of business.

Aspendale Stingrays have made their best start yet to a State League season winning 3-1 away to Endeavour Hills last weekend.

A first-half penalty from Kieran Hughes saw both sides go in at the break tied at 1-1 but a second-half brace from Domenic Paul sealed the issue.

Mount Martha lost 1-0 to Barton United at Barton Recreation Reserve on Saturday.

Ethan Sanderson is expected to return to the matchday squad this weekend after injury.

Meanwhile the last three local clubs still in the 2022 Australia Cup are in action on Tuesday night in round 4 ties.

Langwarrin hosts Hume City at Lawton Park at 8pm, Frankston Pines hosts Clifton Hill at Carrum Downs Recreation Reserve at 8pm and Mornington is away to Altona East Phoenix at Paisley Park at 7.30pm.

Here are this weekend’s round 3 league fixtures: FRIDAY: Frankston Pines v Monash Uni, Carrum Downs Recreation Reserve, 8.30pm; Monbulk Rangers v Skye Utd, Monbulk Regional Soccer Facility, 8.30pm.
