Mermaid atYanchep

The children of Perth have recently beentreated to the amazing sight of a mermaidfrolicking off local beaches. Mermaid Ameliahas visited beaches from Yanchep to HillarysMarina and will be swimming her way backdown the coast as far as Rockingham over thenext few weeks.

Amelia, 26, who is an art student designed hertail for fun, was besieged by delighted childrenwhen she took her costume to the beach for aphoto shoot. Over the last five weeks MermaidAmelia has built up a cult following withhundreds of parents and children swarming tosee her. Posting her destinations a few daysbeforehand on Facebook, requests have beenflooding in from people anxious to see her attheir local beaches.

The story behind Mermaid Amelia’sappearance along WA’s coastline was given inan exclusive interview last week. MermaidAmelia was originally searching for treasurealong the WA coastline when she fell headover tail in love with a singing sailor. Now onthe hunt for this same sailor she has beenvisiting the beaches in search of her lost love.

“So far I have not found him but I have met lotsof wonderful little humans who make me feelvery welcome. I do not think humans are asbad as most merfolk say they are and I will tryto convince more mermaids and mermen tovisit. I hope to one day find my mysterioussinging sailor but for now I am very happy toswim along the beaches as a mermaidambassador and guardian of the sea.”

Thursday 7 February 2013 - - Sun City News www.suncitynews.com.au [email protected]

Officially the state, federal andlocal council elections haven’tstarted, if you believe what ourpoliticians say.

The Barnett State Governmentthrough their DPC Media Officehave been pumping out mediareleases in plague proportions,and parliament isn’t even sittingbefore the election.

Various candidates have beenduplicating the media releaseswith a local spin, trying toconvince you they may havehad a hand in the issue.

Then last week, the PrimeMinister, Julia Gillard, announcedthe date for the Federal

election, but no one iscampaigning; or that’s whatthey’d like you to believe.

To me, the most intriguing issuein the federal election is thatboth the major party leaders areso unliked by the widercommunity.

Could there, should there, be achange in either or both majorparty leaders?

It has happened before, BobHawke replaced Bill Haydenonly a month or so, before anelection and won.

Could Kevin Rudd or MalcomTurnbull make a comeback?

No doubt we will be bombardedwith federal ‘non-electioneering’campaigning for the next sixmonths.

On the local scene, the Liberalcandidate for the Federal seatof Moore, Christian Porter, is anew resident in Yanchep.

In mid-October, our localcouncils have their elections.

By the time this non-compulsoryvoting election rolls around, I’mguessing most of us will betotally washed-out with politics,promises, confusion of who’s,who and won’t care as much aswe should about who willrepresent us on the local council.

I’m already thinking, it’s onlyJanuary, and I will be glad when2013 is over - No elections forat least two years.

Do you enjoy all the argy bargyof listening to the politiciansmaking promises, denying theiropponent’s claims whilepressing the flesh and kissingall those babies?

Personally, I prefer to judge ourpoliticians on their achieve-ments for the region - Isn’t thatthe reason we voted for them?

What do you think?

Letters to the editorFree range or not?Over 12 months later, theplanning application by AAAEggs for a poultry farm onRedgum Farm, Wanerie, isagain back before the Shire ofGingin on 19 February.

Despite numerous requests tocouncil, the surroundingcommunity still don’t know if thismassive ‘free range’ farm will bejust that.

Accreditation standards byindustry associations , RSPCA,etc, have guidelines as to howmuch outside area chickens areallowed to roam over, ie outsidethe sheds and stockingdensities.

Thousands of chickens freeranging on outside soilsproducing tonnes of manureweekly. Is this environmentallyacceptable?

Please explain, free range ornot?Leanne Fullarton, Wanerie.

Park feeTo all, including Bill Marmion,should the entry fee be free, Iwill say no.

I am a passionate user of thegolf course and belong to thegolf club and enjoy the companyand the competition each week.In addition being part ofimproving the golf club facilities.

What I really cannot understandis that the park workers areputting all efforts in keeping thegolf course greens in reallygood condition, but due torestriction from local govern-ment the fairways are notallowed to be watered.

Users of the golf course wouldincrease if the course wasallowed to be maintained with

funding from the local and stategovernment, if this was possibleand the entry fee to the parkwas $5.00 - A win, win situationwould be created, the tavernwould benefit, the golf clubwould benefit and the park willbenefit.

From observation the main-tenance of the park has beenrestricted by reduced funding,so until the State and LocalGovernment increase fundingfrom our tax rates, $11.00 entryfee is far too much.

Celebration of 50 years of theonly national park golf courseshould be something we shouldbe proud of, so please local andState Government, listen.

The abundance of water underthis park is unlimited, so let use itnot only for the golf course, butfor the ovals around the park.Ian Lowe, Yanchep.

Editor’s comments: I don’tthink the Local Government hasanything to do with the runningor maintenance of the course.The State Government is totallyresponsible for the entire park.

Park feesWith an annual local park pass,costing only $20, you arecovered for unlimited entry overa whole year - How's that forlocal aficionados of YanchepNational Park?

But wait, there's more - Thepass allows two nominatedvehicles to enter, one at a time.Sanni Strobel, Yanchep.

Park feesAnother point of view withregards to your recent views oncharging entry to YanchepNational Park - In the samenewspaper it advertises mealsat a tavern inside the park.

When reading this ad I thoughtmust remember this when Ihave time and call in onelunchtime, as it has probablybeen 15 years since I was lastin there with the good wife. Onentering the park, a lady wantedto charge me the normal entryfee (during the week) to getlunch at the pub.

I think this defeats the purposeof advertising the tavern if youhave to pay at the gate to get in,don’t you.J J Woods, Yanchep.

Editor’s comment: The YanchepInn is a private commercialbusiness and has no involvementregarding gates fees.

Homestead disgraceIt pains me to see the heritagelisted Mary Lindsay Homesteadcrumbling into a dilapidatedstate of disrepair at theCapricorn Estate.

What bothers me more however,is that the continued increasedvandalism of the building isreleasing deadly asbestos fibresinto the westerly winds whichblow into the residential area.

It is most imperative from ahealth and safety angle thatsomething urgent be done torepair the asbestos damageand contain the fibres until theproposed cafe/museum/touristcentre is built.

It is even possible that from asafety/structural angle thebuilding may need to becondemned and a suitableplaque erected on the site tocommemorate Mary Lindsay.

City of Wanneroo are youlistening? - Health comes beforeheritage!Zeke Pervan, Yanchep.

CLASSES STARTING

Sports ovals updateAt Tuesday night’s City ofWanneroo meeting, the councilhas back-flipped on theYanchep Active Open Spaceproject and decided to fast trackplans to redevelop CharnwoodPark in Two Rocks to provideadditional facilities to meet thearea's current sporting needs.

Mayor Tracey Roberts said:“Along with Oldham Reserveand St Andrews Reserve, theCharnwood Park redevelop-ment will result in three sports

ovals in the area, putting it onpar with similar areas

"The City had been hoping tomove ahead quickly with plansfor two ovals on privately ownedland, but complex negotiationshave stalled the project, leadingthe City to shift focus toCharnwood Oval as the firststage in delivering top classsports facilities to the area."

Only a few years ago, counciladministration told a public

meeting that ‘Charnwood Parkwas too small, lacked facilities,non-compliant lighting andinsufficent parking - totallyunsuitable’.

Only a few weeks ago, thecouncil received $975,000 forthe new Yanchep Ovals, and itis uncertain that they cantransfer this money to theCharnwood Park redevelopment.

Wayward golfers at Sun CityResidents in Russley Grove,Yanchep, were bombarded withgolf balls over the Australia Dayweekend - Over a dozen golfballs were recovered from fourproperties.

Local residents have beencomplaining to the Sun CityCountry Club for more than twoyears about golf balls being hitinto their property.

Over the past two years,hundreds of stray golf balls havebeen collected - Off the balcony,in the garden, on the roof and inthe swimming pool.

Recently one resident collectedover 20 golf balls from their frontgarden hedge, which wasplanted to try and minimise thegolf ball problem.

On a number of occasionsthese wayward golf balls havenarrowly missed hitting RussleyGrove residents.

The Sun City News is aware ofanother resident in RussleyGrove, working in his frontgarden and a golf ball missedhim by only centimetres.

On another occasion, a residentwas swimming in his backyardpool, when a golf ball zinged intothe pool.

On another occasion, a golferwandered on to a front lawnlooking for his golf ball - Onfinding the ball in the middle ofhis lawn, the golfer proceededto play his next shot off themanicured lawn.

Currently the Country Club isworking with land developer,Peet & Co, to redesign severalfairways and greens to preventendangering residents in theirnew estate.

Residents in Russley Grovewant the tenth fairway teeing offarea redesign to ensure no golfballs end up in their properties.

There have been suggestionthat the club will be installing asix foot cyclone fence, but mostwayward golf shots would bemuch higher than the fence.

To date, a car, house roofs,solar system and a garagedoors have been damaged bywayward golf balls from SunCity Country Club.

On Tuesday 29 January, the SunCity News sent a media enquiryto the golf club, but to date noresponse has been received.

Responses to media enquiriesIn the last issue of the Sun CityNews, it was reported in a coupleof news articles that parties hadbeen contacted for comment, butat the time of going to press noresponses had been received.

Here are the relative responses.

Sand controlThe City of Wanneroo’sresponse to the enquiry aboutsand problems with landdevelopments along MarmionAvenue was ‘contractors mustprepare and implement a dustand sand management plan’.

When asked how many timesthe City of Wanneroo hadchecked these developments;the council response was: “Anyissues including sand drift arediscussed in regular/fortnightlysite meetings between thecontractor and the consultant.”

One contractor told the Sun CityNews, they’d only had a coupleof phone calls.

In response to how the City ofWanneroo ensures developerscomply with the managementplans; the council stated: “Allearthworks and engineeringapprovals are conditional andthe contractor is responsible forthe sand drift and dust controlduring construction works.(condition of the approval).”

See the developers response onpage 7.

FencingOn 21 January, the Sun CityNews was alerted to a fence thatwas going to be constructed inHardy Court into Cassilda Way.

A local resident provided a copyof a letter they received on 16January, from the City ofWanneroo, dated 7 January2013, stating that work wouldbegin on the fence on 14January.

After the Sun City Newscontacted the City of Wanneroo,a second letter was sent toresidents stating: ‘the City hasnow revised the scope of workslimiting the extent of works to asmall section of conservationfencing.”

In response to the Sun CityNews media enquiry whetherlocal residents had beenconsulted before deciding toerect the fence, the City ofWanneroo said: “It should benoted that as a result ofcommunity feedback in responseto this letter, the scope of theproject has been reduced to asmall section of fencing, avehicle gate (for emergency andmaintenance vehicle access)and a pedestrian gate onCassilda Park adjacent to HardyCourt.

“The approximate cost of theproject is $1000.”

InformedIn another media enquiry, theSun City News asked the City ofWanneroo: “Can the City ofWanneroo confirm that a recentletter from the developer inrelation to the Yanchep OpenActive Space to the City ofWanneroo, with the request thata copy be passed on to allElected Members has beenactioned?

“Can City of Wanneroo admin-istration confirm what date thecopy of the letter was given tothe elected members?”

The City of Wanneroo responsewas: “The City's administration isrequired, pursuant to the LocalGovernment Act 1995, to complywith its various statutoryobligations in respect to comm-unications with council and theappropriate format thosecommunications are to take inrespect to decision making. Thecontinuing negotiations inrespect to the Yanchep ActiveOpen Space is confidentialbetween the City and thedeveloper, however electedmembers have been keptinformed of recent comm-unications between both partiesduring the council recess.”

The Sun City News has beenunable to confirm that electedmembers have received copiesof the letter.

Local petty crime thriving

Over the month of January, policehave been kept busy withongoing traffic patrols with anumber of locals being booked forspeeding, not wearing a seatbelt,talking on a mobile phone anddriving under the influence.

At about 2.45am, on AustraliaDay, Ocean View Snacks wasbroken into - An angle grinderwas used to bust open a cigarettecabinet - Cigarete, cash and a jarof lollies were stolen.

CCTV identifies two young malesand if anyone has anyinformation, can they contact theYanchep Police on 9562 9300 orCrimestoppers on 1800 333 000.

On Wednesday 30 January,someone on a trail or quad bikecaused minor damage toparkland in The Reefdevelopment in Two Rocks.

GUNS SEIZED

Clarkson detectives havecharged a 31 year old Ridgewoodman after seizing a significantamount of drugs and firearmsincluding over 1100 rounds ofammunition after searching aresidence in Ridgewood, lastweek, as part of an operationtargeting burglary, drug dealingand motor vehicle theft.

Georgiou respondSince the ‘Sand a big problem’ article in the lastissue of the Sun City News, Georgiou, the contracterdoing the earthworks at new residentialdevelopments at Alkimos and Amberton hasconfirmed that they are adhering to the conditionssetdown by the WAPC and City of Wanneroo.

A spokeperson for Georgiou said: “Georgiou ispassionate about health, safety and theenvironment and is committed to employing thebest construction methods possible with systemsand processes in place to reduce any unnecessaryrisks to people, property and the environment.

“To comply with dust control measures,environmental policy and compaction requirementsfor construction along Marmion Avenue, Georgiouhas three water carts that distribute on average800,000 litres of bore water throughout the day,directly onto the road and residential earthworkareas.

As well as having dust monitors in place, Georgioumaintains the frequency of water distribution usinga 'turkey nest’ which has two operational pipes thatensure all water carts are either filling up with borewater or operating on the site at any one time. Thisis the quickest method to obtain and distributewater across the site.

“The amount of bore water used is restricted by lawand is closely monitored and recorded forenvironmental purposes; therefore as areas ofearthworks are completed and when constructionactivity is not being undertaken, a dustex product isadded to the water to keep the sand in place.

Georgiou’s told the Sun City News that if anyonefelt their car had been damaged by the severe duststorm, late last year, to send an email [email protected] or phone 9200 2500.

Fires across the regionOn Australia Day, dozens of firecrews worked throughout thenight to save homes andproperties from a bushfire inGingin.

During the fire the ‘emergency’warning was issued for the regionwith people urged to evacuatedtheir homes.

Fifty career and volunteerfirefighters battled the blaze onSunday morning with 22appliances and a dozer.

The Aerial Intelligence Helicopterwas also deployed to fly over thearea, inspect the fire shape andidentify any hot spots.

The Department of Fire andEmergency Services said the fire,which started at the southern endof Wowra Drive, burnt through 65hectares.

Some fencing was lost north ofGingin along with three woodenpower poles.

The State Emergency Service,WA Police, Western Power, StJohn Ambulance and theSalvation Army also supportedthe fire effort.

Alistair Clark (Helitank) and ValerieLandgrebe (Fires coming), fromGingin, sent in some photos ofthe Gingin fire.

Eglington resident, BrendaBrown, posted a photo of thehelitac plane bombing the fire onher Facebook page.

Illegal parkingon the increase

Many errant motorists pose road hazards not onlywhen they are driving but also when they havestopped driving.

In other words, they not only can cause problemsbehind the wheel, but are likely to be just asirresponsible when it comes to parking theirvehicles.

Regularly at many local shopping centres, lazydrivers are parking their vehicles in ‘No Parking’areas, loading bays, drop off zones or acrosspedestrian access ways.

A local resident snapped this vehicle at Two RocksShopping Centre, last week and said: “It so annoysme how lazy and inconsiderate people can bethere was plenty of bays to park and this lady parksover a crossing and blocks the path access whichis needed for disabled people - Shame.”

One of the worst locations for illegal andinadequate parking is at ‘The Village ShoppingCentre’. Cars are parked everywhere, at everyangle most days.

Local councils, including the City of Wanneroo, haveno power in shopping centre car parks other thanwith regard to misuse of disabled parking bays.

Some council's have arrangements in place withshopping centre management to monitor carparking infringements. However no arrangementsexist at present within the City of Wanneroo.

These type of arrangements are normallyinstigated by the owners of the centres inconjunction with the local authorities.

Family fun at CapricornAfter a year in whichCapricorn Yanchep becamethe most awarded new WestAustralian residentialdevelopment of 2012, itseemed unrealistic to expectmore high achievement earlyin the new year.

But most were there simply toshare the wonderful

community spirit and have agood time.

A highlight of the award-winning celebration was theopportunity for two fortunatefamily members to win one oftwo iPad minis.

Sustainable groundwater in doubtThe current flow volumesthrough the Gingin Brook arethe lowest in recorded history.

Many of the other freshwaterstreams and brooks haveeither dried up or are atperilously low flow rates.

Residents and farmersacross the region areobserving a continuing trendof reduced groundwaterlevels.

Many bores have had to bedeepened and some farmershave witnessed the completeloss of water in an aquifer.

Particular problems areoccurring in water sourcesarising from the northernedges of the Gnangaramound.

The local community isjustifiably very concerned andis becoming increasinglyimpatient at the continueddelay in the release by theDepartment of Water of theGingin GroundwaterAllocation Plan.

A similar plan was developedto address serious supplyissues related to the surfacewater resources in the Ginginregion.

The Gingin Surface WaterAllocation Plan was releasedin April of 2011.

It described a situation, in adrying climate, of an overallocated resource which wasunable to provide anywherenear adequate water acrossthe region.

Increasingly dry years havemade the mid-summer watershortfall ever worse.

The problem is obvious. Therecharging of diminishingaquifers which supply thesesurface waters is poorlyunderstood.

Will they soon stop supplyingsummer water?

Annual evaluations of theplan as required have notoccurred.

The local community isbecoming increasinglyconcerned at the situationand expects that it will beconfronted with a groundwater plan that announcesover allocated supplies out ofa set of ground water aquiferswhich have recharge andmixing characteristics whichare not fully understood in aregion where the demands forwater are ever expanding anda climate which is ever drying.

As we prepare for a stateelection the Gingincommunity asks: ‘Who cares

about our water resource’.

The Gingin Water Group hasrecently incorporated torepresent these issues andhas a web site - www.ginginwater.org.au.

The inaugural AGM will beheld just before the WA Stateelection on Wednesday 6March, starting 7.00pm in theGranville Centre, Gingin.

This forum will provide theideal opportunity for all con-cerned locals to have their say.

Angel of CuisineEating healthy is not really ashard as everyone thinks, infact, as far as time goes, it’sactually quicker than pre-packaged most of the time.

Sticking to wholefoods is theeasiest way to ensure thateverything you put in yourmouth will be beneficial toyour body.

Wholefoods are foods that areunprocessed and unrefinedand as close to as theyappear in nature as possible.

Things like lean meats, fruits,vegetables, nuts, seeds andgrains. When you knowexactly what is in the food youare eating then you won’t getany hidden surprises likeextra fat, salt or sugar.

Realistically though, it can beincredibly difficult to go fromwhat you are used to everyday to a totally lean and cleandiet.

So, the trick is to take thingson a few at a time. Make alist of everything you eat thatyou know is bad for you.

Pick three things from the listeach week and tell yourselfwhen you go shopping youwill find a suitable alternative.

It may take a little time ineach section to look up theingredients lists on foods, butit’s worth it.

Pick up your old bad food inone hand and compare it toalternatives in the other.

Aim for a lower fat, sugar andsalt content and you will bewell on your way.

Try new things, you'll lovesome and you'll hate some.

But eventually you will seethat you can find a betterchoice for at least 80 per centof your bad foods and eachlittle change will make a bigdifference to your health.

Then when you do indulge inyour bad foods it will be a realtreat rather than part of youreveryday.

If you have something youlove and are struggling to finda healthier alternative, feelfree to email me and I'll helpyou find it.

Have a healthy week!!

“I’ve always loved travelling andcapturing the essence of a townin a photograph, but I neverimagined I’d see one of myphotos on the cover of a phonebook. To have threephotographs on the cover iswonderful,” Roy said.

Plea forhelp

In December, only a couple of daysbefore Christmas, a Two Rocks familyhad their Jet Ski stolen from theirproperty. Less than a month later,someone entered their home and stole aniPad, men’s sunglasses and about$10,000 worth of jewellery including alarge diamond ring.

Karla Little said: “My husband and I workvery hard for everything we have andsome low life thinks he/she can just takewhat’s not their own and get away with it.

“It's time for this town to step up. Notsaying I am for vigilantes, but come onguys, there needs to be some sort ofNeighbourhood Watch where people arenot scared to point out who is doing burnouts, breaking into house/shops and so on.

Over the past six months, Two Rocks hasbeen regularly described as ‘It isn't theplace it used to be and it makes me feelashamed to call it home’.

Karla said: “If anyone knows who tookthe stuff from our house, I am willing toforget everything if I just get my diamondring back. Put it in my letter box and I willask no more questions. This ring hasgreat sentimental value.”

If anyone has any information about thesethefts, call Yanchep police on 9561 9300or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Exercise, calcium and sunlight: all threeneeded to reduce osteoporosis risks Osteoporosis experts have urgedthe public to ensure they getadequate calcium, weight-bearingexercise and vitamin D to preventbone problems, warning thatchildren who swap milk drinks forsoft drink may be at greater riskof fractures later in life.

Around 1.2 million Australianssuffer from osteoporosis, wherebones become so frail theyfracture at low levels of trauma. Afurther 6.3 million haveosteopenia, a precursor conditionwhere bones have lower densitythan normal.

Both conditions are caused byinadequate consumption ofcalcium and vitamin D, which isneeded to absorb calcium, as wellas insufficient weight-bearingactivities and sports like runningand tennis.

In a white paper published by theMedical Journal of Australia,osteoporosis experts said moreneeded to be done to boost publicawareness of a problem thatadded billions to the public healthbill every year.

“Osteoporosis was designated aNational Health Priority Area in2002; however, implementation ofnational plans has not yetmatched the rhetoric in terms ofurgency,” the authors of the papersaid.

It is never too late to take action toreduce your osteoporosis risk, theauthors said, adding that calciumand exercise needs will changethroughout life.

The paper urged people to:

n Consume three to five servesof calcium-rich foods daily (suchas dairy or calcium-fortifiedfoods).

n Get enough vitamin D fromsunlight. Fair people should getaround 6 minutes a day (duringsummer) or up to 40 minutes aday (during winter) of sun,avoiding peak UV times. Dark-skinned people should aim for upto 42 minutes during summer andup to four hours during winter.People who cannot get adequatesun exposure should considervitamin D supplements.

n Partake in regular weight-bearing sports or exercise for atleast half an hour three to fivedays a week and do muscle-strengthening exercises on atleast two days per week.

“The main finding is there arethree key things that we all need

to consider to optimise our bonehealth: ensuring we get adequatecalcium, vitamin D and exercise.Each one alone is not sufficient ifwe want to prevent fractures inlater life,” said one of the authorsof the paper, Professor RobinDaly, Chair of Exercise andAgeing at Deakin University’sSchool of Exercise and NutritionSciences.

“We are trying to encouragepeople to consider various formsof dairy products and avoiddrinking sugary soft drinks. Dairyproducts not only contain calcium,they contain other good nutrientsand there are some good optionson the market for people who arelactose intolerant.”

Professor Daly said it wasunderstandable Australiansshould be cautious of getting toomuch sun but to remember that alittle could help reduce theirosteoporosis risk.

“We published a study on 11,000Australians that showed a third ofthe general population from 25years up had low vitamin D levels.You don’t need much sunlight toget adequate amounts of vitaminD,” he said.

Associate Professor MarkKotowicz from DeakinUniversity’s School of Medicinesaid the white paper was “animportant and well-researcheddocument that highlights theburden of osteoporosis in thecommunity.”

“The white paper provides somepractical guidelines as to vitaminD and calcium requirements atdifferent ages and criticallyreviews the evidence relating toexercise and bone health,highlighting regimens that haveevidence to support theirefficacy,” he said.

However, the white paper’s focuson public health meant it did notaddress the treatment gap in themanagement of osteoporosis,said Associate ProfessorKotowicz, who was not involvedin the white paper.

“Osteoporosis is under-diagnosed and under-treatedthroughout the world and thistreatment gap could be thesubject of another white paper onosteoporosis,” he said.

“The evidence that interventionsto make the "first fracture the lastfracture” are cost-effective inreducing the burden ofosteoporosis is mounting, yet

health authorities have beenreluctant to invest in fractureprevention programs."

Dr Peter Rich, a senior lecturer inRMIT’s School of MedicalSciences, said the white paperwas “an excellent document”because it emphasised weight-bearing exercise and vitamin D aswell as calcium consumption.

“People tend to think ‘Oh well, allI have to do is drink enough milkand I won’t get osteoporosis’. Butthat is not enough,” said Dr Rich,who was not involved in thepaper.

“I would like the idea ofemphasising the exercise part.It’s a lot easier to go and drinkmilk but the exercise part isharder to change.”

Dr Rich said it was important toremember that only certain typesof exercise helped preventosteoporosis.

“A lot of people think, ‘Well, I goswimming, so I do a lot ofexercise’. Swimming is good andwe would not discourage it but itis not weight-bearing exercise,”he said, adding that people whocount walking as their primaryform of exercise should considerincluding strength training or gymexercises too.

“And the paper mentions that,depending on your age group,you may want to increase walkingto brisk walking or hill walking.”

For property owners thathave ever dreamt about sub-dividing their land in order tocash up or simply down sizetheir work load, but havebeen daunted by the processand/or cost, Limestone Parkmay be the answer.

They are now offering aunique service which takesthe risk and financialexposure away from theproperty owner.

Having experienced firsthandthe whole process of sub-

division application, conditioncompletion, title release, andmarketing to sale of thesubsequent lots, LimestonePark recognised this is notsomething that most propertyowners are willing toundertake themselves,especially when there are noguarantees of success, aftercommitting to pay forconsultants, surveyors,planners etc.

Limestone Park, along withSimon Fraser, who most willremember was chief executive

officer for the Shire’s ofToodyay, Gingin andJerramungup, and specialisesin local government, planning,consultancy, have teamed upto provide this new service allwithout charge, unless anduntil the approval is obtained,if subdivision approval is notachieved then the clients isnot charged.

In a similar fashion to how areal estate agent gets paid acommission after they sell aproperty, Limestone Parknegotiate a fee based on the

project, then the clientnormally funds this throughtheir bank using the newincreased equity in theirproperty gained as aconsequence of thesubdivision approval, all ofwhich Limestone Park canhelp organise.

In most cases this means thata client does not have tosearch for the cash to makethe subdivision a reality.

Your rights and responsibilitiesThe vacancy rate for rentalaccommodation in Perth ishovering around 1.9 per centwhich is about a third underPerth’s long term equilibrium.Demand is outweighingsupply.

Even though many tenantsare leaving the rental systemto buy a home of their own,strong population growth iskeeping up the pressure.

In the December quarter oflast year, median rents inPerth for a unit or apartmentdropped by $10 to $420 perweek, but for houses it roseby $10 to $460 per week.

While there is no cap on whatan owner can charge, there isrightly a process to ensurethat rent increases are notfrequent or excessive.

When signing a new lease,owners cannot ask for morethan two week’s rent inadvance, however they canaccept additional payments ifoffered.

Owners cannot increase therent during a current fixedterm lease, unless thecontract stipulates that rentreviews can occur during theperiod of the lease.

When this happens it will besix monthly. For example, atenant may agree to a oneyear lease with a review aftersix months.

The lease agreement shouldaddress how the rent will bereviewed, e.g: adjusted to the

current market, increased to$X or increased by CPI. Themethod of review cannot be asurprise.

Rents can be increased witheach new and renewedcontract, but not morefrequently than every sixmonths.

Sharp increases in rentcannot be used as the solereason to remove existingtenants.

In cases where there is aperiodic lease with no clear orwritten contract, owners canincrease the rent but only if 60days notice is given to thetenants in writing. Suchincreases cannot be morethan six monthly.

At the start of a lease, ownerswill ask for two weeks rent inadvance, plus bond. Innormal circumstances thebond is not more than fourweeks rent.

Offering to pay a higher rentthan is being asked does notnecessarily help a tenantsecure a property.

Owners are mostly looking forreliable, responsible tenantsand this takes priority.

Owners and propertymanagers are unlikely toaccept a tenant who offersmore money than the askingrent if the property isunsuitable for the applicant ortheir paperwork is inadequateor incomplete.

What matters most to ownersare good references, yourability to pay the rent on time,look after the place and to notdisrupt the neighbours.

Tenants should be realisticabout rents in the currentmarket. Equally, it’s not in theinterests of owners to beunreasonable.

A good tenant should berespected and highly valued.Smart owners wouldn’t dream

of losing them for short termgain.

Equally a slack agent cancost an owner thousands ofdollars. Failing to checkreferences properly or notconducting routine homeinspections are usuallybehind a trashed property.

Sometimes, owners’ thinkthey can save money bymanaging their rentalproperty, but they don’t havethe capability to checkreferences, write a properlease agreement or conducthome inspections.

Sadly, there are a number ofwell known ‘bad tenants’around, and they survive onthe lazy owners and agents inthe industry.

Over the past five years,several properties in Yanchepand Two Rocks have beenbadly damaged by tenantswho had lazy owners.

At the same time, a tenantmay claim compensationfrom the landlord if the tenanthas suffered loss or damageas a result of a breach of aduty under the RentalTenancy Agreement or atenancy agreement by thelandlord or agent.

The RTA makes a distinctionbetween those compensationclaims based on breaches ofa ‘duty provision’ and thosebased on other breaches.

All owners, agents andtenants need to understandtheir obligation and rights.

COMMUNITY DIARY

Local community groups struggle to surviveAs the new year festive seasonconcludes most local community groupsstart re-establishing their regularmonthly meetings.

To the surprise of many groups, they arestruggling with an aging membership,finding new members and people totake up various committee positions.

Combine this with stricter, tougher andmore expensive venue hire fees andpublic insurance fees, a number of localcommunity groups are on the verge offolding.

Some local councils are demandinghigher and higher venue usage fees,and recently one council has introduceda forfeiture fee unless you give two

weeks notice to cancel. The Sun CityNews is aware of one small local group,that been around for over 15 years, thathas stopped providing their weeklyactivity, due to the recently introducedcancellation fee policy.

The local community is the loser.

The wider community is alwaysdelighted to attend a free local functionsuch as the recent Australia DayBreakfast at the Phil Renkin Centre.

Nearly 500 people attended, this year,yet a small committee of about six peopleorganise and run the entire event - Theyseek sponsorship, organise all the food,entertainment and then call on groupslike the CWA to help out on the day.

It just doesn’t seem fair that a smallaging committee can put on such agreat activity, everyone says ‘how greatit was’ but no one steps forward to bepart of the committee.

In my mind, it’s only a matter of time andthis group could fold up, then they’d beno Australia Day Breakfast, no Carols inthe Park, no tribute band nights, in fact,they’d be virtually no free local activitiesfor the community.

There are over 50 local communitygroups and most would welcome newmembership, why not get in and help,become part of the community, don’t justlive in the community.

Book Review

Eureka Stockade - TheUnfinished RevolutionThe Eureka Stockade wasAustralia's answer to the BostonTea Party, to the French people'sstorming of the Bastille. It was the

moment when the diggers’ senseof outraged justice united theminto a force that changed thecourse of Australian history.

It is the greatest Australian legendoutside of war-time, and one thathas enormous resonance in the21st Century as Australianscontinue to discuss what ourformal relationship with Britainshould be. Karl Marx followed itclosely and wrote about itextensively, while Mark Twaindescribed it as ‘the finest thing inAustralasian history. It was arevolution - small in size; but greatpolitically; it was a strike for liberty,a struggle for principle, a standagainst injustice and oppression.’

Peter Fitzsimons brings the wholestory to life in his trademarkfashion, making the reader feellike they're there, as the mightyEureka flag is first raised andrebels swear allegiance to it; as

the British red-coats first launchtheir attack, as the digger-rebelsfight back in kind.

Peter Fitzsimon said: “It is, in myview, the great Australian saga,the yarn that has something foreveryone. I learnt more aboutwho we are and where we camefrom as a country than any otherbook I’ve ever written. It is ourversion of the Boston Tea Party –no taxation without representation– and yet, staggeringly, I think alot of people know more aboutwhat happened in Boston thanwhat happened in Ballarat.”

The Last RunawayThe stunning new novel from thebestselling author of Girl with aPearl Earring - When modestQuaker, Honor Bright, sails fromBristol with her sister she isfleeing heartache for a new life inAmerica, far from home.

But tragedy leaves her alone andvulnerable, torn between twoworlds and dependent on thekindness of strangers. Life in1850s Ohio is precarious andunsentimental.

The sun is too hot, thethunderstorms too violent, thesnow too deep. The roads arespattered with mud and spit. Thewoods are home to skunks andporcupines and raccoons. Theyalso shelter slaves escaping northto freedom. Should Honor hiderunaways from the ruthless menwho hunt them down?

The Quaker community she hasjoined may oppose slavery inprinciple, but does it have thecourage to help her defy the law? As she struggles to find her placeand her voice, Honor must decidewhat she is willing to risk for herbeliefs. Set in the tangled forestsand sunlit cornfields of Ohio,Tracy Chevalier's vivid novel isthe story of bad men and spiritedwomen, surprising marriages andunlikely friendships, and theremarkable power of defiance.

The Sun City News crew are all keen book readers, today you can read your favouritebook on an iPad, hardcover or softback - Here is our selection this week.

Join the rallyThe Lake Nowergup/Carabooda Valley communityhas been dogged and determined in its four yearcampaign to stop the madness that would allow anew quarry and concrete batching plant right onWanneroo Rd adjacent to Lake Nowergup and theOcean View Tavern.

With a state election just around the corner,politicians have been paying this community a littlemore attention. Recently, the community wereextremely pleased to host Premier Colin Barnett ona tour of the Lake Nowergup region.

The reaction the community gets is always thesame and Mr Barnett's was no different - Puttingan industrial land use in the heart of the LakeNowergup valley just doesn't make sense.

During his visit the Premier said: "It's clearly a verybeautiful lake - I understand why people are raisingtheir concerns."

The community’s concerns have been shared bydozens of other politicians who have visited too,including senior members of the currentGovernment including the Planning Minister JohnDay, Attorney General, Michael Mischin and FormerTreasurer and Attorney General Christian Porter.

They all agree that this proposed quarry is simplyin the wrong spot. The proponent, WA Limestonehas even made approaches to the City ofWanneroo and State Government wanting toexplore the possibility of a land swap.

A land swap seems a sensible win, win solution.

Lake Nowergup Community Group spokesperson,Sabine Winton, said: “So how can it be that we canget every single politician to agree that it would bea bad idea to allow mining in the heart of the LakeNowergup Valley, yet no one is stopping it? Howcan it be that we have received bipartisan support,yet the Lake Nowergup Valley is still zoned formining and constantly under threat? Limestone isin short supply and critical to keeping the cost ofhousing down is the standard answer we'vereceived from the bureaucrats. What isn't often saidis that the Chamber of Commerce's own report onBasic Raw Materials Access and Availability 1996-2006 states that there is the potential of 160 milliontonnes of high grade limestone in Nowergup andYanchep alone.

“In this context, WA Limestone's proposal for amaximum of 60 000 tonnes per year is insignificant.

“The truth is that banning mining in the LakeNowergup Valley would not have any impact on theoverall supplies of limestone. That is simplynonsense. If the Government allows mining in theNowergup valley though it will mean we will loosea most wonderful opportunity to create amagnificent regional open space around LakeNowergup, the deepest permanent wetland left inPerth. As we all know it’s wetlands with permanentwater that are scarce. Isn't it time we protectedwhat we have left before it's too late?”
