sun city news - 4 december 2014

Last week, the RAC released theresults of their 2014 Risky Roadscampaign where the communityidentified two relatively new localroads as some of the state’s mostdangerous roads.

While Gnangara Road wasranked the state’s worst road, theMarmion Avenue and LagoonDrive intersection was rankedthird worst in the City ofWanneroo with inadequatecrossing and turning opportunities.

RAC members’ recommendationis the installation of traffic lights ora roundabout.

Daily, pedestrians and schoolstudents can be seen trying tocross this intersection, dodging

traffic while impatient drivers areadding to the problems.

Indian Ocean Drive, nearLancelin, was deemed the riskiestroad in the Shire of Gingin.

RAC General Manager, ofCorporate Affairs, Will Golsby,said: “The 2014 Risky Roadsresults have highlighted theurgent need for the stategovernment’s mid-year review todeliver an increase in roadfunding across the state.

“This funding is urgent becausetragically the road fatality toll isalready 20 deaths more than thistime last year.”

“WA’s roads network is also underpressure with a cap being placed

on the level of road fundingprovided to local government, andmore recently a 15 per cent ayear reduction in funding from theroad maintenance budget overthe next three years.

“This is on top of the hugebacklog in road maintenancewhich was identified in 2009 bythe Auditor General andestimated to be $800 million.

“There are 187,000 kilometres ofroads in Western Australia and noone knows it better than thepeople who drive, ride, cycle orwalk on it every day.”

The RAC Risky Roads campaignempowers community membersto voice their concerns about

dangerous roads and intersections,so the RAC can work with therelevant authorities to get themfixed and ultimately save lives.

Within the City of Wanneroo’sNorth Ward there were two otherintersections that ranked highly:Flynn Drive and Wanneroo Road;and Golf Links Drive andWanneroo Road.

These intersections have beendescribed as inadequatecrossings or turning opportunitieswith the same solution beingrecommended: ‘instal traffic lightsor a roundabout’.

Driver SurveyIn a recent RAC Driver Survey, ithas revealed that while youngdrivers recognise risky behaviouron the roads, they still engage inthese behaviours while driving.

Distractions and inattentioncontinues to be a problem foryoung drivers, with 62 per centadmitting to being distractedwhen having a conversation witha passenger.

The survey found 15 per centexaggerated their log bookentries while 85 per cent ratedtheir own driving as either good orexcellent.

While 74 per cent rated theirdriving as either better or muchbetter than their peers, only twoper cent thought they were worse;65 per cent thought their agegroup (16-25) were responsiblefor the most crashes on the road.

Other amazing statistics from thesurvey revealed that 42 per centhad seen their parents use amobile phone while driving; 73per cent had seen their parentsspeed; 25 per cent had seen theirparents drive after drinking whilenine per cent had seen theirparents run a red light.

Sixty-two per cent of youngdrivers said they drive whilefatigued, 41 per cent speed bymore than 10km/h; and 16 percent acknowledged they checktheir social media while driving;15 per cent don’t give way topedestrians while 19 per centtake photos while driving.

. . . . .n While last issue’s, ‘bullying’

article may have upset a coupleof people, why blame the editorfor publishing the article?

We would chastise the media ifthey hadn’t reported it.

In the meantime what about thedrug problem in our local schools.

I hear the editor knows what’shappening in each school, canname names, addresses andmore. - Does the community want

these issues aired and get theappropriate authorities fixing theproblem?

My guess is ‘NO’ - Just maybesome parents might be found outabout their drug dealings withtheir own children.

How many parents know aboutthe drug dealing at the local skatepark or bus stop?

. . . . .

n Is there any reason why the City

of Wanneroo isn’t advertising theirproposed Ward Electorial Boundarychanges in the North Ward?

. . . . .n Ninety-five per cent of car

accidents occur due to humanerror - Aren’t we an accidentprone lot?

. . . . .

n John Quigley, the Member for

Butler, was ‘ejected’ from WAstate parliament last week forinterjecting, five times, when theMinister for Transport, DeanNalder, was answering a DorothyDix question from one of hisfellow parliamentarian buddies.

Mr Quigley was pushing the‘railway to Yanchep’, the Ministerdidn’t respond to any of MrQuigley’s questions.

Mr Quigley told the Sun CityNews: “On Thursday, I wasejected from the Parliamentbecause of my repeatedinterjections to the Minister forTransport, Dean Nalder MLA,challenging him over the LiberalGovernment’s broken promise tohave rail to Yanchep by 2020 andchallenging him to get Yancheprail back on track.

“I will use every opportunity inParliament to challenge theBarnett Government over thebroken rail promise and thebroken promise to spend $10.3million dollars to bring YanchepDistrict High School up to scratch.”

. . . . .n Would you believe drugs are

being handed out to primaryschool kids for free at certain localbus stops?

Get them hooked, get them intocrime, what is our communitycoming too?

Where are the authorities?

Saying, drugs and crime isn’t asbad here as somewhere else,isn’t an excuse not to do anything.

Angie Beck, Yanchep.

Thank youThe family of Dorothy Challenwould like to thank the TwoRocks and Yanchepcommunity for their friendshipand support given to ourmother over the past decade.

Her time here was filled withgood memories.

Our mother passed awaypeacefully at St John of God,Subiaco, on Saturday 15November.

Gordon, Cathryn, Tony,Francene and Maryann.

Stop the world, I want to get off!I do feel that way; do you?

It was so much easier then,remember?

No mobile phones,computers (only a few of ushad one). No text messages,answering service and lesschoices. Modern technologyadds more stress to our life,changes are irritating andunnecessary and unwanted.

Let’s start:

n Supermarkets: Foodchoices. 100 per cent sugar

free; 80 per cent fat free; skimmilk 10 per cent fat. skinnymilk; no fat, no gluten, freerange – (meat and eggs), onand on and of course 100 percent natural.

n Beauty products: Sunscreens, spray lotions, SPF30+, 50+. Different shapedbottles – upside down tops.Shampoo – silicon/no silicon;silky moisture renewal;essential oil, it goes on and on.

n Fashion: Women’s clothingdownsizing; 12 to a 10; 14 toa 12, so we all feel happier tofit into smaller sizes.

n Asian sizes: Too small forall of us. Do your collar upand you choke, your cuff,your hands turn blue (nocirculation).

n Jeans: Spray on jeans,boot leg, high rise, mid-rise,wide leg, torn jeans, ¾ length,full length.

n Leggings: No tag for backor front, one size fits all,really? – They usually cometo my armpits!

Finally, you wear them theright way. Hard work! So tight!And when you finallymanaged, you cough,sneeze, or f**t and yourshoes blow off - True!

n Facial expressions: It isquite amusing when peoplecopy the expressions ofRoyals and TV personalities.

Laughing like Princess Kate;showing your tonsils, ugula,tongue, perfect white teeth(like piano keys), must puffyour lips like newsreaders.

Make smokey eyes like Will-I-Am (The Voice judge), Deltaor Christina Morrissey (newsreader).

n Surprise look: Open mouthwide, drop jaw, hold yourexpression for 10 seconds ormore, if you can stopsalivating.

n Crying: Like thedisappointed girls on TheBachelor and The Block.

Gently rub your index andmiddle finger under your eyes– Start from the nose and goto your temples.

n Public facilities: Automaticopen/close, transparent glassdoors.

Don’t use them if you areclaustrophobic, and rememberdon’t get shocked if you pushopen and the door slides opento reveal a man or woman inan embarrassing moment.

n Hand-dryers: New bigmetal noisy machine thatswallow your hands, yourrings – Amputates your arms.Scary!

n Roads: Roundabout,cement islands, markings,more roundabouts, childrenon skateboards on the wrongside of the road, 4WD’sparked on the side of the roadverge.

I could go one forever.

Maybe Father Christmas willbe able to use a skateboardon Brazier Road and playMonopoly at the same time?

Confusion, frustration, stress.It was easier then.

Wishing the world a peacefulChristmas and 2015.

Let’s hope - Absolutely!

Elena Lumsdaine,Yanchep.

Change to library hoursIn response to how thecommunity use library facilities,Two Rocks library will extendits Saturday opening hoursuntil 1:00pm.

The City of Wanneroo said:“The change in hours will giveresidents more time onSaturdays, when the library isbusiest, to choose, renew andreturn their books, access freewifi, explore the children's areaor use the computers.”

The library will open from9:00am until 5:30pm, Mondayto Friday, and no longer openuntil 7:00pm on Tuesdays. Thenew opening hours commencenext year - Monday 5 January.

Library resources includingmagazines and eBooks whichare available online.

Overall the Two Rocks Librarywill be open for the samenumber of hours, they haveadjusted the times forSaturdays and Tuesdays.

The Sun City News under-stands many Yanchepresidents who had access tothe Wilkie Park mobile library,once a week, will not or cannotgo to Two Rocks to accessthese services.

At one stage in the CapricornYanchep future plan there wasto be another library built at asmall shopping centre on TwoRocks Road, near ClubCapricorn Resort. This planappears to have been shelved.


Contribution payment more than doubledAt the City of Wanneroo’s lastcouncil meeting for over twomonths, the council will consider30 different reports.

The council will consider arevised ‘Alkimos-Eglinton andYanchep-Two Rocks DevelopmentContribution Plan’.

Noteable is the cost contributionfor Yanchep - Two Rocks,projected to increase by morethan double, much more thananticipated in 2013.

At that time the estimated costcontribution was $3,291 perdwelling compared to $7,297 per

dwelling now proposed in therevised DCP (DevelopmentContribution Plan), a difference ofover $4,000 per dwelling.

The report states “While theoverall estimated cost to deliverthe facilities has increased, theprimary factor influencing theincreased cost contribution rate isthe projected number of dwellingsto be developed within the 10year timeframe of the DCP.”

Figures from the attachmentswithin the report indicates thatnearly 8,000 homes are projectedto be built in Yanchep and TwoRocks between 2014 and 2024

with the DCP funds of nearly $58million being used to substitue theCity of Wanneroo’s capitalexpenditure for the region.

Capital expenditure in theYanchep Two Rocks region forthe next decade is listed asYanchep Public Open Space($21,461,452 - 2014/15); YanchepSurf Life Saving Club ($7,636,831- 2017/18) and Capricorn CoastalNode ($2,242,485 - 2021/22).

Within the Alkimos-Eglingtonregion the projected number ofhomes to be constructed are notlisted, but the Sun City Newsunderstands this DCP is for 25

years with an estimated 18,860homes each paying an extra$3819 per dwelling to prop up thecouncil’s 25 year capital worksprogram estimated at over $75million.

Many people think the DCP is asecond tax on selected newdevelopments, allowing thecouncil to continue spendingexcessively in the more affluentsuburbs to accommodatedemands from certain sectors.

Yanchep - Two Rocks and Alkimos- Eglington are the only regionswithin the City of Wanneroo to behit with this additional ‘tax’.

This report continues to show themassive lack of basic sportingfacilities in the outer northernsuburbs for juniors and seniors.

Many local residents think it is ascandal that the mayor andcouncillors freely socialise withdevelopers, some collectingelection contributions, but theyaren’t working with them to delivervital basic community facilities.

What do you think?

Lagoon Cafe settlementAt next Tuesday’s City of Wanneroocouncil meeting, behind closeddoors, they will consider a reportrelated to a ‘Deed of settlement andrelease’ related to theinconveniences caused to theowners carrying out their normalbusiness activities over the past 12months.

The City of Wanneroo has hadvarious sections of the road blockedfor up to 12 months hamperingparking and access to the cafe.

The Sun City News is aware that thebusiness nearly closed downcompletely, some staff were laid off,the cafe ceased trading seven daysa week.

Perth solicitor, John Hammond, whospecialises in Local Governmentissues, has been advising the cafeowners, Peter and Sue Morgan.

There are two issues the council hasto consider, one its liability to the cafeand the damage to the businesscouncil’s actions has caused.

Secondly, why does the council takeitems like this out of the public eye?

Some elected members of councilvigorously promote that council is‘open and accountable’.

Every time they do a deal behindclosed doors, they are reverting backto the suspicious merky ‘WannerooInc’ days.

Blocking full disclosure to residentsand ratepayers is unacceptable andsurely likely to be an election issuenext year where the Mayor and halfthe council face the communityseeking re-election.

Last Sunday’s Gingin Jive atGranville Park attracted a greatcrowd enjoying everything ‘retro’and raised over $1000 for theTelethon KIDS Institute.

Johnny Law and the PistolPackin Daddies entertained thecrowd with their great sounds ofthe 1950’s, includingAmericana, Rockabilly, Countryand Rock and Roll with adistinct Mexican influence.

One of the many commentsposted on social media bestsummarised the day. MarilynDon said: “Had a great day!Music was awesome! Stallswhere wonderful and thecompany was the best! Keep upthe good work Gingin jive.”

Patricia and Harrison fromVintage Fixation throughlyenjoyed the day, displaying theirwares and dressing up for thefabulous day.

Julie Polette said: “Had the besttime again, well done Kelly.”

Mayor Tracey Roberts officiallyopened the project at a VIPfunction, last Friday.


Nature at its bestAlong the easternboundary of WannerooRoad lies the picturesquesemi-rural locality ofNowergup.

This area isapproximately 40kilometres from the PerthCBD and contains amixture of market gardens,plant nurseries, hobbyfarms, small businessesand just beyond itssouthern border liesBarbagello Raceway.

It is a unique rural,heritage andconservation districtwhich also contains LakeNowergup - The deepestpermanent lake in themetropolitan area withover 50 recorded birdspecies dependent on itswetlands.

The lake name was firstrecorded by SurveyorGeneral John SeptimusRoe in 1841 and isthought to mean ‘place ofsweet water’.

A young family hasrecently returned toreclaim and re-establishtheir old dwelling to reartheir new offspring.

Their abode is a basicnest consisting of smallsticks that is fashionedalong the fork of ahorizontal branch of amature Flame tree.

This is a family of Tawny Frogmouthsconsisting of a mating pair and their twochicks.

Tawny Frogmouths are found almostexclusively throughout mainlandAustralia and Tasmania belonging to thesame family of night birds as owls andnightjars.

They are sometimes known as mopokesor nighthawks and have been likened tothe night time version of birds of prey.

They are often confused with owls, butunlike owls, have no facial disk anddifferent beak and talon structures.

Their appearance is marked by longfeathery like bristles above their beaksforming a crest like feature.

Observation shows they are well namedas their colourings include variations andstreaking of grey, brown and white.

They feed predominantly on insects,moths, beetles and invertebrates and areattracted to food caught in shafts of lightfrom verandahs and cars, etc.

Tawny Frogmouths make formidablehunters, combining their ‘frog’ like beaks,their forward facing binocular eyes whichallows greater depth perception and theirremarkable hearing to swoop down andcapture their prey.

They are also masters at camouflage asevidenced by observing our TawnyFrogmouth family in the Flame Tree.

Whilst other noisy chattering birds on theproperty are getting on with their life inthe daylight hours flittering around, thisfamily remains quiet, still and watchful.It’s not easy to spot this family who seemto blend seamlessly into the thickbranches and dense foliage.

The male appears perched on a branchin front of the nest, appearing to guardhis family and is lengthening andsimultaneously narrowing his body toappear slim and stick like hoping to blendinto the tree and eventually appears halfthe width of the female.

He’s also narrowed his eyes to slits andit’s only the tail markings that give hispresence away as his tailhangs belowthe branch.

Mum and chicks remainwatchful - These areunusually quiet chicksand you get a distinctimpression of ‘I’ve got myeye on you’ from all ofthem.

Regardless of whichposition around the treewe took and how manytimes we visited the tree,the Tawnies remainedpassive and did not move.

It’s unusual to spot TawnyFrogmouths during theday and it’s possibly theabundance of night lightsand food sources at thisproperty that haveencouraged them to nestthis close to theresidence.

This pair have returned inprevious years tosuccessfully raise theirfamily and are well ontheir way to anothersuccessful rearing.

The last time we spottedthis family they all weretaking to flight in the earlyevening and inspection ofthe Flame tree the nextday shows the nest isempty.

The life cycle of theTawny Frogmouth goeson and we await theirreturn next year into theNowergup Valley.

Tradesman fined A tradesman has been fined atotal of $3,000 by the PerthMagistrates Court and wasordered to repay a total of$4,400 to two consumers afterhe accepted deposits butfailed to carry out the work.

Rodney Gulley, trading as NorthShore Limestone of Carramar,was fined $1,500 on each of thetwo charges of breaching theAustralian Consumer Law andwas also ordered to pay courtcosts of $1,797.

Lawyers for ConsumerProtection told the court thatMr Gulley had received a

$1,400 deposit from aconsumer in Karrinyup toconstruct a limestone wall at aquoted cost of $2,800, but thework was never carried out.

At about the same time, MrGulley had accepted adeposit of $3,000 from aKallaroo couple to construct alimestone wall at a quotedcost of $6,300 which includedgetting the plans approved bythe local council. The planswere never submitted and thework was never carried out.

In handing down the penalty,the magistrate described Mr

Gulley’s conduct asdisappointing and said itaffected the ability of consumersto trust other tradespeople.

Commissioner for ConsumerProtection Anne Driscoll saidthat in both these cases therewas no clear constructioncompletion date negotiated.

“This court case highlights theneed for consumers andtradespeople to have a clearunderstanding of when thework will be completed, and toget that agreed date in writing,even if it’s just noted on thequote,” Ms Driscoll said.

“However, even if there is noagreed completion date,tradespeople cannot put offwork indefinitely. TheAustralian Consumer Lawstates that the work must becarried out within areasonable amount of time.

“Consumers expect that thework will be carried out in amatter of weeks, not months.

“Under no circumstancesshould the full amount be paidupfront. This leaves theconsumer with no bargainingpower if there is a disputeabout the work at a later stage.”
