Supporters of a stand-alone Sunbury council have cried foul aer transition auditors recommended the towns planned split from Hume be abandoned.

ose opposed to separation, however, have urged people to move on, calling for an end to the uncertainty they say has hung over Sunbury and Hume for too long.

As reported by Star Weekly online, the auditors report, presented to Local Government Minister Natalie Hutchins on August 28 and released to the public last ursday, said there were too many concerns about the proposed new councils viability.

It is the view of the transition auditors that the separation of Sunbury from the municipality of Hume at this time is so problematic that it

Drop Sunbury split: reportshould not proceed, the report by auditors Frank Vincent and John Watson found.

e two auditors were appointed by the government in March with a brief to review the separation processes, aer the former Liberal government gazetted formal notices that a new Sunbury council would start on July 1 this year.

e split was put on hold aer Ms Hutchins said too many questions remained unanswered.

e auditors said they believed previous nancial advice prepared by three consultants armed that a Sunbury council was unlikely to be sustainable without signicant nancial assistance, high rates and/or reduced services.

eir report stated any savings that could be achieved through innovations may not provide the secure revenue base needed. It also stated a proposed cross-subsidy from Hume council to Sunbury would constitute a substantial

shi from the well-established principle that councils operate on the rate base generated within their boundaries.

e auditors said abandoning the planned split would protect Sunbury ratepayers and ensure planned capital works, including a new global learning centre, would be delivered.

If they occur, projected population increases would place Sunbury in a better position at some time in the future to support a council from its own rate base, the report noted.

Western Metropolitan Liberal MP Bernie Finn said the recommendations were no surprise, and he urged split supporters not to drop their bundle.

Both Mr Finn and Sunbury Residents Association president Bernie OFarrell accused the government of having made its decision before launching the year-long review.

Mr OFarrell said split supporters would keep ghting for an independent Sunbury, regardless of Ms Hutchins eventual decision, even if it takes the election of a new government.

Sunbury-based Hume councillor Ann Potter says she hopes people will move on.

Weve been governing with uncertainty for too long. We want to get on with things, like planning the new global learning centre. ereve been enough delays.

Hume chief executive Domenic Isola said the council held serious concerns about the process undertaken by the previous government, and he welcomed the auditors ndings. Both Mr Isola and mayor Adem Atmaca urged this government to make its nal decision quickly.

Ms Hutchins said she would carefully consider the auditors recommendations. For more reactions, visit www.starweekly.com.au

e government recently added 10 extra peak-time Metro services a week, with the promise of more to come.

But critics say the changes, with access to more than 200 services to be removed, are unfair to Sunbury passengers.

Western Metropolitan Liberal MP Bernie Finn said people wanted to know why they were being shaed, with Metro services slower and less frequent, while many V/Line trains stopping at Sunbury were only a third full.

Youre standing on the platform, youre staring at empty seats, but you know that if you get on board, from next year youll be ned.

By Matt Crossman

A Sunbury group ghting to give city commuters the right to continue using country V/Line trains has been buoyed by a meeting with transport authorities.

Sunbury Train Association (STA) members last week met with representatives of Public Transport Victoria and Transport Minister Jacinta Allan to present a report prepared aer extensive consultation with commuters.

STA spokeswoman Melissa Limb said the group was pleased that it secured a commitment to hold a public meeting on the issue.

ey were very co-operative and gave us a great chance to share the communitys views, Ms Limb said.

Were hopeful that changes can be made. Sunbury is a growing suburb and needs better train services.

As reported by Star Weekly, restrictions Star Weekly, restrictions Star Weeklybarring Sunbury commuters from V/Line trains will not be enforced until next January, but passengers are being actively discouraged from getting on board.

e changes, prompted by the completion of the Regional Rail Link, aim to reduce overcrowding on Bendigo-bound trains.

STA wants to keep access to all V/Line services, gain more Metro services, including some express trains, and have all Metro services extended from Watergardens to Sunbury.

Until now, Sunbury has received about half the Metro services travelling to Watergardens.

At last weeks meeting, organised by Sunbury Labor MP Josh Bull, it was noted that Sunbury is a fringe suburb serviced by V/Line and Metro, but not fully by either.

Mr Bull described the meeting as positive. A petition with 1771 signatures calling for

ongoing V/Line access for Sunbury commuters has been presented to Parliament.

Public to have say on rail freeze

Two works by a Sunbury painter are on their way to Italy for a special exhibition celebrating Australian art and culture.

Debra Vivarini-Lorenzi, who has been painting since she was a child, says the selection of acrylic canvas pieces for the November show are among the highlights of her lengthy career.

One of the works depicts mist coming in over Macedon, while the other, of cockatoos sitting on a fence, was inspired by a photo a friend posted on Facebook.

Macedon mists to settle in Romeey were all up there in a row. As soon as

I saw it, I thought, oh Ive got to paint that, Vivarini-Lorenzi says.

e pieces were among works by 70 artists selected for the exhibition at Via Guilia Gallery in Rome.

Two other works, including one depicting Sunburys Jacksons Creek, will be displayed at pre-Rome shows in Sydney.

Vivarini-Lorenzi, who also tutors students aged from eight to 80, says her creative passion

was set in stone by a Russian woman, who taught her aer school when she was a teen.

I think, in those six or eight months, I learnt everything I know.

Vivarini-Lorenzi says she tries to paint every day.

I have about ve works going at the moment you start something and sometimes it just ows. Other times youve got to work at it.

MP Bernie Finn has called for an urgent and thorough investigation of the Bulla tip.

Mr Finn said what went into the tip was a mystery.

Of recent times there has been speculation as to what actually goes into the tip and speculation that has led to a view that maybe asbestos is being dumped, he said. Its important to know exactly what is in there and whats being dumped in there.

e Western Metropolitan Region MP last week asked Environment, Climate Change and Water Minister Lisa Neville to initiate a full Environment Protection Authority investigation into the landll site at Sunbury Road operated by Bulla Tip and Quarry.

Mr Finn said he passed the tip frequently and could vouch for the horrendous smell that lingers in the area; he likened it to the smell curdled milk.

Its only fair, its only right and reasonable that locals have a right to know what is dumped practically in their backyards, he said.

Mr Finns comments come a month aer the EPA admitted to an administrative error that allowed asbestos to be disposed of at the site without the appropriate licence. In response to the nding, EPA chief executive ocer Nial Finegan ordered an independent review into the licence of every Victorian tip that accepts asbestos.

Bulla resident and Stop Bulla Toxic Tip Action Group spokeswoman Carmel Egan said the group wholeheartedly endorsed Mr Finns comments.

Sunbury and Macedon Ranges schools will share more than $2.5 million of state government funds to improve teaching resources and student performance.

While the state opposition criticised the government for trying to pass o the latest allocation as extra money, saying it had already been included in Mays budget, the government said funding announced last week would lead to more students reaching the highest levels of reading, maths and science.

ose needing extra help would also be supported through literacy and numeracy programs.

Sunbury schools to receive money included Sunbury College ($664,997), Sunbury Heights Primary School ($281,955), Sunbury Downs College ($231,195) and Sunbury West Primary School ($100,824).

Kyneton Secondary College ($120,724), Kyneton Primary School ($69,986), Romsey Primary School ($34,109) and Gisborne Primary School ($23,992) were among Macedon electorate schools to benet.

Other primary schools in Sunbury, Diggers Rest, Woodend, Lanceeld, New Gisborne, Riddells Creek, Macedon, Trentham, Clarkeeld and Newham also received funding.

e government said the money was on top of funds provided for enrolment growth, indexation and everyday running costs.

Three Rs add up for schools

A community kitchen that feeds more than 150 disadvantaged Sunbury residents every week will celebrate two years of operation while keeping an eye on the future.

Every Monday night at the Elizabeth Drive Neighbourhood House, the Rotary Club of Sunburys Family Community Kitchen serves up good food, giving a chance for people who might otherwise be isolated to socialise.

Spokeswoman Marianne Williams says the free meal is a highlight of the week for many.

Enough for everyoneey so look forward to it, she says. Many

of them do what they can to help, too, whether by volunteering or bringing in a bottle of cream, or whatever they can.

Ms Williams says the kitchen caters for people from many backgrounds who, for whatever reason, nd themselves in need.

It can be people who struggle to aord good food, people who cant cook for themselves some of our regulars are older people who dont know how to cook properly because theyve lost their spouse, who always did it for them.

e kitchen survives on the generosity of an

army of more than 50 volunteers and support from Rotary and organisations, such as food charity SecondBite.

Organisers will hold a pay it forward dinner on September 28 to raise money and help get ready for an inux of diners over summer months. People can enjoy a three-course buet meal for $35, with each donation to pay for someones meal for the next 10 weeks.

e fundraiser, from 5.15-7.30pm, includes live Irish music. A courtesy bus is available for Sunbury residents. Phone 0419 369 446 or email [email protected]

Sunbury and the Macedon Ranges disability advocates say theres a feeling of immense relief following conrmation of a full roll-out of the National Disability Insurance Scheme.

e federal and state governments last week reached a deal to ensure the NDIS will be gradually introduced across Victoria, starting in Whittlesea next July and coming to the Macedon Ranges in May, 2017. e scheme will provide personalised care and support for people with disabilities by July, 2019.

would get extra support and choices in how they received it.

Ive learnt rst-hand of the challenges disability service workers now face, she said. e sector needs to support people with a disability better.

I also know how important an early rollout of the NDIS is for Bendigo and our people with a disability and their families, many of whom are in desperate need of respite, support and choice.

Once fully rolled out, the NDIS will see the end of rationed services and waiting lists.

Sunbury disability advocate Phil Hatton said the NDIS would x a broken and messy system.

At the moment, getting assistance for parents is an absolute mineeld, he said.

Under the NDIS, people shouldnt have to go through so much bureaucracy. ey wont have to go to Centrelink for this and the Education Department for that.

A lot of people are very relieved that this is nally happening.

Federal Bendigo Labor MP Lisa Chesters said close to 3400 people in her electorate

McEwen Labor MP Rob Mitchell welcomed the scheme.

He said the state government would add $2.5 billion a year to the federal governments $2.6 billion, more than doubling the current funding for disability support.

e NDIS is a key achievement in delivering for the most vulnerable members of our community, he said.

is is an historic day for Victoria and a victory for people with a disability, their families and loved ones who fought so hard for this reform.

Sunbury and Macedon Ranges parents have been urged to ensure young children are taught to swim, with falls into water cited as the most common cause of their drowning deaths.

e Royal Lifesaving Associations 2104-15 National Drowning Report showed a 30National Drowning Report showed a 30National Drowning Report per cent increase in drowning deaths of Australian children aged four and under from 20 cases to 26.

Chief executive Justin Scarr said the large increase in children drowning was alarming.

Active adult supervision and restricting access to water are key strategies to reduce these tragic incidents, he said.

Hume councils acting city infrastructure director David Fricke encouraged parents to enrol their children in classes at Sunbury.

Every child should learn to swim, and now is a great time to start as the warmer weather approaches, he said.

Its vital that people know how to be safe

in pools and at the beach. Mr Fricke said the Sunbury aquatic centres classes equipped people, from infants to seniors, with the skills needed to survive if they get into trouble in the water.

Our centres classes are based on Life Saving Victorias Swim and Survive program, he said. In the school holidays, we oer intensive ve-day sessions so that young people can learn how to swim and survive a water emergency.

Aquatic centres at Gisborne and Kyneton also run learn-to-swim programs.

e report found 39 Victorians drowned in the past year. It also showed that 37 per cent of drowning deaths occurred in inland waterways, such as rivers, lakes and dams.

A visit to Kyneton District Health (KDH) has given year 11 students from Sacred Heart College some real-life insight into concepts that textbooks can never truly explain. Nurse Michelle Clough and midwife Catherine Prestney provided context to the amazing story of birth and human development as part of an ongoing partnership with the school. Two placentas from babies recently born at KDH and a birthing video proved challenging for some students. But their mild displeasure was soon replaced by a deeper understanding of lifes beginnings. They broke down knowledge into language that the students could understand and also used the terms we teach, Sacred Heart health and human development teacher Mel Bratovic said. It was great to have them prompt students with questions and have friendly experts lead the discussion. Student Connor Maxwell said the visit was a real eye-opener.

By Matt Crossman

Calls for Macedon Ranges council to record its monthly meetings appear likely to fall on deaf ears.

Council management has deemed the costs involved prohibitive, but Newham resident Matthew Nickson has launched a petition urging the council to install recording equipment in an eort to boost its accountability and transparency.

Mr Nickson has compiled a survey showing 24 of the states 79 councils record or stream meetings via the internet, or plan to do so.

meetings are at dinner time so if youve got a young family you really cant get along.

Councils corporate services director, Glenn Owens, said similar proposals had been investigated before.

ere were expensive set-up costs and there would be operational diculties and poor quality transmission due to our limited access to high-speed broadband, he said.

Mr Nickson said the costs of setting up recording equipment would be worth it.

Bendigo council dont record, but what they do is do it in conjunction with community radio, he said.

e technology is there, he said, calling on the council to make recordings available on its website.

If you look at the trend last year and this year, there are lots of councils moving towards it.

Whats important is that the community needs to know, especially when there are decisions where theyve gone against what the ocer has recommended in accordance with the planning policy.

Mr Nickson said he considered the recording of meetings to be good governance.

It allows everybody to be involved. Council

People up there say its actually proven to be extremely important to record the meetings and have them on archive, especially in light of the heated mosque debate.

Many people have used those recordings a lot for research and background thats why it is important. People want to know whats going on.

e petition has the support of the Macedon Ranges Residents Association, which led a 2010 campaign to have meetings recorded.

Mr Nickson plans to present the petition to the councils November meeting.

Council cool on recording plea

A conversation between a training expert and the human resources manager of Woodends biggest employer has led to lasting benets for workers from a non-English-speaking background.

Kyneton Community Learning Centre (KCLC) was recognised at the state governments Learn Local awards aer conducting a 10-week course with 10 Barker Trailers employees, who are originally from the Philippines.

KCLC education and training manager John omas said the program, which helped explain concepts such as occupational health and safety, and entitlements, also fostered language learning and greater understanding among Barkers 175 workers, who turn out about 450 custom trailers a year.

A lot of these guys felt a little bit isolated; they werent really sure of themselves, Mr

omas said. But by the end of it they better understood their importance to the business, and a lot of trust was built up.

Barker Trailers human resources manager Lois Hunt said the initiative, which won the Learn Local award for business, had helped break down cultural barriers even things such as leave, how it works and what theyre entitled to, she said. eres a lot of things that most of us who have English as a rst language take for granted.

Mr omas said KCLC was keen to run similar programs with other businesses.

Which community groups are you currently involved in? Sunbury SES, 1st Sunbury Scouts, Wurundjeri Rover Scout crew, Plenty Valley Region Rover Community, SunFest, 3NRG radio and Blue Light Association Sunbury.

How old were you when you started volunteering? Ive been taking on voluntary roles since I was about 15 when, as part of my Venturer Scout award scheme, I was required to provide service to a community group. Its grown from there to what it is today.

How do you manage to t so much in? I get this question a lot usually my answer is something along the lines of not sleeping. Truthfully, its not an easy task running dierent tasks, meetings, planning sessions, training, camps, and all the while nding time to maintain a full-time job and time for family and friends. Its about trying to be organised oen its leaving one meeting to rush to another. I like to think of it as organised chaos.

Why take on so many roles? I credit Scouting for my drive to help others and give back, especially my Scout leader Je Amy, who instilled in me the notion that all of us have a responsibility to give back and actively participate in our community, to make it grow, develop and become a better place for all of us.

MY PLACEJarrod Bell got a taste for volunteering when he was still a teenager. Today, the Scout leader, community radio committee member, SES media ocer and SunFest president says that with so many dierent hats to wear hes grateful for the calendar app on his phone Matt Crossman reports.

Where does your desire to help come from? Im passionate about our community. Sunbury is a fantastic place to live, work and learn. I wanted to enable the next generation to have the memories and experiences I had, and that can only happen if people put their hand up and volunteer.

What do you get out of volunteering? A real sense of community. Across generations, ages and groups, I see a broad range of dierent people.

Which of your many roles gives you the most satisfaction? My time with the SES has changed my perspective on life. Sunbury SES is a family, dedicated to serving, helping and saving others. I love that we are a group of helpers that go out in the worst of scenarios.

Whats your advice to those who want to make Sunbury a better place but dont know where to start?Find something you are passionate about, then nd a way to bring that joy to others. It doesnt need to be an emergency service or youth organisation, Teach, mentor, advocate, learn there are probably thousands of ways you can volunteer. It doesnt need to be a massive commitment an hour a week, a few hours a month its oen taking that rst step to say yes I want to participate. (M

If ever Mother Nature gave birth to a house, it would look like this one.

Constructed two years ago from handmade, compressed straw bales rendered with on-site yellow clay, Little Wood stands as a testament to what true artisanship can achieve. Using bygone building techniques gleaned from generations of family skills, the owner-builder sourced all timbers locally and milled them on site, re-leaded 100-year-old stained glass to add pops of interior colour and has re-purposed reclaimed materials everywhere. The amazing result will capture the hearts of creative types and, in particular, those who value sustainability and walking gently on the earth.

On a lovely, lightly treed block of about 1.59 hectares, the house embodies earthiness and all the moods of timber, with local blackwood, messmate, cypress, blue atlas cedar, manna and peppermint gums and baltic pine (for ledge-and-brace doors) all making an appearances. Corrugated galvanised iron from a 100-year-old dairy forms most of the ceilings (others are in plywood, eschewing chemical-emitting plaster), and every doorway has a handmade blackwood sill. Beautiful blue-green tiles in the living room (under 4.5-metre ceiling) are handmade in Spain. The living rooms massive support beam has been snafed from an old Puckapunyal barracks. All oor tiles are owner-made in terracotta and a soaring feature wall

and under the eaves have been treated to shiplapped cypress.

There are a couple of nods to outsourcing for example the Caesarstone-topped blackwood/leadlight vanity units; a Belling oven with gas cooktop; a single-drawer dishwasher; lovely, earthy fabric in window furnishings; and the rainbow feature tiles in both bathrooms.

Of the three bedrooms, the main has a tted walk-in wardrobe and a walk-in shower in the en suite. The main bathroom has a reclaimed clawfoot tub and incorporates a European laundry. Blackwood ladder-stairs from the living room head up to a mezzanine area.

With double-glazing throughout, a 1.5kW solar system, 5kW inverter and straw-bale

insulation effect, the house carries a 7.2-star energy rating.

A gigantic American barn houses a workshop, mezzanine storage and a wine storage room and, tucked behind, a rustic studio with kitchenette, clawfoot bath, wood heater and TV/internet connection.

A fenced vegie patch (with frog bog and adherence to permaculture principles), two storage sheds, a log cabin chook hotel, water tanks with 175,000-litre capacity, a one-megalitre dam (stocked with yabbies), dry riverbed landscaping, a barbecue area and handcrafted wood pizza oven are other delights at a property (incredibly) within ve minutes of the train station.
