On the agendaThere are several North Coastal Ward issues on next Tuesday’s City of Wanneroo council agenda.

Implementation of the Local Housing Strategy for the Quinns Rocks, Yanchep and Two Rocks housing precincts.

In May 2015, the council wrote to State Government agencies and infrastructure services seeking comment on the capacity of essential service utilities to support increased residential densities - There did not appear to be any signifi cant issues to prevent a scheme amendment from being initiated in the future.

Council administration is recommending they defer any amendment until the provision for deep sewerage infrastructure is completed; that the Mayor write to the Minister for Water requesting Yanchep and Two Rocks be added to the Government Sewerage Infi ll Program.

In another report the council is being asked to approve an

adult store on Marmion Avenue, Clarkson - 61 objectives were received.

The recommendation is to refuse the application, stating it is not compatible with the existing businesses in the complex.

The council will consider the outcome of a safety review of Two Rocks Road, Two Rocks.

The report recommends Main Roads WA undertake a speed zone review with the intent of reducing the 90km/h posted speed limit to 70km/h from 150 metres north of the Club Capricorn entrance to 300 metres south of Reef Break Drive.

In another report the council will consider a petition to relocate the entrance point of Dewars Track away from the residential homes on Damepattie Drive and Sovereign Drive, Two Rocks.

The report states: “As a consequence of Council’s decision to close the track

the issues around anti-social behaviour, hooning and noise complaints have now already dramatically decreased.”

The reports recommends noting the petition received and not proceed with an alternative entrance to Dewars Beach track.

The council will consider the Quinns Districts Amateur Football Club’s business case for the upgrade of facilities at Ridgewood Reserve and subsequent request for funding from the City of Wanneroo.

The business case considered three options costing between $959,310 and nearly $1.5 million - Administration’s recommendation is to not support the proposal and reconfi rm their commitment to build a 100 square metre multi-purpose room extension.

In another report, council will consider their continued contribution of services to the Barbagallo V8 Supercars event - The recommendation is to approve $45,000 over three years.

Council will reschedule their 21 June meeting to 28 June, so the Mayor and Chief Executive Offi cer can attend the Australian Local Government Association 2016 National General Assembly of Local Government in Canberra from 19 June, to 22 June 2016.

Shire of GinginThe Shire held their April meeting in Lancelin this week, read the full report from the meeting in the next issue of the Sun City News.

Boys and their bikes

Local residents, Terry Fell, John Pitcher, Ross Foreman and Andy Orford are involved with the Historic Competition Motorcycle Club of WA.

Ex-racer Terry Fell owns and prepares a competitive Triumph

race bike, while Andy Orford and John Pitcher have BSA and Norton race bikes.

Ross Foreman, who is also an ex-racer, gives his time, expertise and support to Scott Topping, 15, from Bullsbrook.

A full program of racing will be held at Barbagallo Raceway this Sunday, 24 April. The days activities start around 7.30am, with racing starting about 9.00am continuing all day.

Entry is free to the pit area and is open to all spectators.

The club incorporates a range of race bikes and sidecars

spanning various classes from the 1930s to modern day race bikes and everything in between.

The riders, both male and female, come from all walks of life and range in age from twelve year old juniors to 70 year old veterans.

The club holds regular race

meetings during the year at Barbagallo Raceway and Collie Motorplex. If you would like to get involved, call club president, Bob Humphrey on 9295 6184.

Drivers wantedThe Yanchep Two Rocks Community Bus group is looking for drivers to help out. This group has been providing a local free community service for nearly 30 years.

If you would like to volunteer a half day, once or twice a month, call Julie on 9561 1538 or 0438 862 953 for full details.

Without suffi cient drivers it is very diffi cult to maintain the regular free bus services between Yanchep and Two Rocks with regular trips to Ocean Keys and Joondalup Shopping Centre.

Makeover for Fisherman’s Hollow

The public toilet facilities at Fisherman’s Hollow in Yanchep will receive a makeover later this year.

City of Wanneroo originally planned to demolish the existing facilities and construct a new modern toilet block.

Last November the council delegated decisions on the

Fisherman Hollow toilet block upgrade to the chief executive, Daniel Simms, after rejecting all tenders received because they exceeded the $452,000 budget allocation.

Tenders submitted ranged from $552,000 to $684,000.

It was determined that a renovation of the current

facility would be the most cost eff ective solution.

All of the original upgrades will remain, including new roofi ng, baby change facilities, one additional cubicle, a new unisex accessible toilet, and an overall upgrade of the fi nishes.

The existing mosaic artwork, removed a couple of months ago, will be returned on completion of the renovations.

The tender process for the renovation will commence shortly and work is expected to be completed by December this year.

4 Foreshore Vista, Yanchep Your letters and emailsMadnessIt is with complete amazement that the Wanneroo Shire road planning department has allowed a main entrance into the new estate just before Montebello Blvd and the Reef Estate turn off on Two Rocks Road.

This main entrance is on the brow of a hill.

Surely it must be clear to the genius that passed this plan, that an entrance on the brow of a hill has a large degree of danger associated with it, and clearly must not have looked at the amount of deaths that have occurred on the brow of hills in Two Rocks Road of late, with sadly three deaths just recently.

The Wanneroo Shire needs to explain this decision very quickly, although I suspect the responsible department will lay blame to the

developers and visa versa, however, who is going to explain the inevitable carnage which will follow by allowing this madness to continue.

The speed limit in the area I have mentioned has been reduced to 60kms an hour, good luck with that one!

Also, I would strongly suggest that the whole of Two Rocks Road become painted with double white lines.

It is true that you will always get the usual idiots ignoring this and will continue to overtake on crests but we can only hope this can save a few lives in the short term.

I live in hope that the Shire will address this issue.

Tony Russell,The Reef Estate.

Seawall protection for Seabird ‘won’t stop at $2 million’

The half-kilometre seawall might protect Seabird from the ocean’s inward march, but costs won’t stop at $2 million, says a prominent oceanographer.

The seawall is the most invasive and least desirable of solutions the local shire investigated to slow coastal erosion in the small town just south of Lancelin, which has already claimed an entire road

and is now at the boundary lines of private homes and associated utility lines.

Shire of Gingin chief executive, Jeremy Edwards, said in February a seawall would mean losing the beach in front of it as well as associated ‘social and recreational impacts for a coastal town’.On Tuesday, council was forced to endorse awarding a contract

for the seawall but the $2 million in emergency funding the state government granted would not cover the optimal solution of off shore breakwaters.

Respected University of Western Australia coastal oceanography, Professor Charitha Pattiaratchi, said seawalls were, however, easily damaged and would likely just shift erosion north or south to the next rocky headland.

This meant a $2 million seawall could actually result in ongoing costs of $10 million or more in a decade in maintenance.

And despite off shore breakwaters being cheaper to maintain, they could cause more ongoing erosion problems.

Professor Pattiaratchi said natural beaches absorbed and dissipated wave energy like sponges.

“When you put a rocky structure there, the energy gets refl ected and moved off shore, which creates a more energetic environment just off shore and increases the capacity to move the sediment,” he said.

“It will not stop with the $2 million. That cost will escalate.”

Tellingly, the shire is waiting for the state government to confi rm that they will be indemnifi ed against responsibility for ‘any

adverse impacts of coastal erosion occurring as a result of this infrastructure’ before tender awarding and constructing.

“Gingin will not pay, the state government will pay, which has been the situation in Port Geographe where they have spent $28 million on the seagrass problem there,” Professor Pattiaratchi said.

“I don’t understand why, if they have $2 million, they don’t buy the properties - it’s cheaper in the longer term to actually move the people aff ected rather than spending the money.

“There is evidence all the way around the world of people just continuing building and protecting those buildings, putting more and more money into the system.”

Changing sea levels, climate and erosion patterns mean the shire cannot predict how long the works will provide protection for the 15-or-so beachfront homes aff ected, most of which are owned by retirees.

Seabird Progress Association president, Garry Thompson, said while residents were happy something was ‘fi nally happening’, they wanted to reclaim the beach and associated amenity for both residents and tourists.

They would continue to lobby the state government to fund

off shore breakwaters, which would probably cost around $4 million.

He said landowners were unlikely to embrace the idea of property buyback but it had not been broached in any detail by the state government or council.

Last week, Shire of Gingin president, Cr David Roe, provided a ‘Seabird Erosion Update’ saying: “The Shire called tenders for construction of the seawall in February, with civil engineering contractor Neo Infrastructure the successful tenderer.

“Shire is currently in negotiations with Neo Infrastructure on a commencement date.

“As this project has been funded by the State Government the Shire is awaiting their approval of the design and to release funds.

“Shire is unable to award the contract for commencement until these funds are released by the State Government.

“The Shire is continuing to progress this project as swiftly as possible, and will continue to keep the community informed of its status as and when updates come to hand.”

DESTINATION WEDDINGS

Becoming increasingly popular to say I do, while surrounded by your closest friends and family, is a destination wedding in a romantic destination.

It provides a unique backdrop to celebrate and create a special experience for you and your guests.

Some of the most popular wedding destinations are Las Vegas, Bali, Thailand, Hawaii, Vanuatu, Fiji and Australia for their warm climates, relaxed feel, and ease of access.

Often your exotic destination wedding would work out cheaper than getting married in your home town.

Organising a destination wedding need not be a daunting task. Bridge The World Travel & Cruise Centre works with

dedicated wedding consultants to arrange your dream wedding.

They off er you a range of wedding packages from some of the most popular hotels and resorts, including services such as hairdressers, beauticians, wedding coordinators, celebrants and more. They make sure you and your guests are looked after and of course, arrange your honeymoon.

Thailand provides a melting pot of culture, sandy beaches, secluded islands, cuisine and romance.

Weddings in Thailand have legal status in Australia and you just need to complete a

pro forma Statutory Declaration at the Australian Embassy in Bangkok.

Bali has been a long-time favourite for Australian travellers and it’s no wonder it’s also a popular wedding destination.

There is a wide variety of resorts and hotels to choose from, the weather is lovely, the people are friendly and there is a lot for honeymooners and guests to see and do.

In Bali, all couples who marry in Indonesia must declare a religion. Partners must be of the same religion, otherwise one partner must make a

written declaration of change of religion.

Fiji combines stunning beauty, with a warm temperate climate, hospitable locals, and a serene atmosphere. But perhaps the most important thing Fiji can off er your wedding is the Spirit of Bula, a message of good health and happiness.

You are required to obtain a marriage license from a Marriage Registry in Fiji prior to the marriage ceremony. Weddings in Fiji have legal status in Australia.

Vanuatu off ers breathtaking scenery, untouched shores, waterfalls and romantic sunsets to serve as the backdrop for your special day. You need to be in Vanuatu three days before the wedding date and the marriage has legal status in Australia.

Hawaii allows you to celebrate your wedding in paradise. Hawaii provides the perfect beachside aff air with its pristine beaches and commanding sunsets. To get married in Hawaii you must appear in person to apply for a marriage licence.

Las Vegas Graceland Wedding Chapel is one of the oldest, most widely recognised icons located right on the fabulous Las Vegas Strip.

The little chapel is quaint and has been graced by many rich and famous including Elvis Presley himself.

The chapel off ers fun, romantic, and meaningful ceremony packages that are inexpensive and hassle free.

The bride and groom need to appear together in person before a marriage license agent in Las Vegas to apply for a marriage license and the license is issued on the spot.

And not to forget Australia, home to some of the most commanding views and scenery.

Providing a diverse selection of locations to host your special day, from spectacular sunsets on pristine beaches and romantic vineyards to vast desert landscapes and rolling mountain ranges. The options are endless, Sydney Opera House, the beaches of Queensland, the picturesque Margaret River or even Uluru.

Great start to season with Dennis HeaneyYanchep Red Hawks have begun their season with two convincing victories in the opening rounds of the 2016 WAAFL season.

The opening fi xture saw the Red Hawks travel down to Coolbellup and in a torrid, hard fought and at times somewhat spiteful game, the Red Hawks prevailed to run out winners by 18 points. After a good start which took them to a handy six point lead at quarter time they trailed by a solitary point at the main break.

Key midfi elder, Jacob Pritchard, went down with a fractured ankle and only with some sterling defence from backmen John Bruce and Jason Gravenall carried the side into half time where they were able to regain composure following the loss of one of the sides prime movers.

The third quarter saw the Red Hawks produce their best quarter of the game turning the small half time defi cit into a useful 14 point lead as they turned for the fi nal term.

The fi nal quarter was played at a furious pace with both sides anxious to start the season with a victory, however the Red Hawks through their fi tness, discipline and commitment were able to increase the lead marginally at the fi nal siren.

Coach Mick Sutherland was very satisfi ed with the team eff ort of all players despite the serious injury to one of the team.

Best players were John Bruce, Max McDonnell, Jason Gravenall and Chris Curgenven.

Main goalkickers were Tom McQuillan (5) and Chad Broughton (2).

The Red Hawks initial home game for the season, last Saturday, at Oldham Park saw the home side establish a handy 14 point lead at the fi rst break which had been cut to nine points following a spirited display by the visitors in the second term.

However the coach’s half time message must have had some eff ect as a ferocious Red Hawks put the game beyond reasonable doubt by outscoring Forrestfi eld by fi ve goals in quarter three to turn for home with a 39 point advantage and despite a three goal burst by Forrestfi eld early in the fi nal term before the Red Hawks rallied with fi ve quick goals, two being kicked by Tom Butler giving him a match tally of fi ve.

Final scores Yanchep 15.8.98 def Forrestfi eld 9.6.60.

Best players were Deon Alderton, Tom Butler, Luke Berry, Bobby Smeeton, Toddy Staff ord and Shaun Martin.

This week’s game is also a home game at Oldham Park and club president, Phil Smeeton, cordially invites all community members to the game to enjoy the club’s food and beverage hospitality as well as great family football environment and support their local team.

Thinking Ahead: Have your say on the City’s future

The City of Wanneroo is calling on residents to help shape its future by getting involved and reviewing the City’s Strategic Community Plan.

The 10-year Strategic Community Plan sets out the Council’s long term vision and priorities for the future and was developed in 2012

following extensive community consultation.

Mayor Tracey Roberts said the City was reviewing the plan to determine whether the community priorities identifi ed in 2012

were still relevant today.

People can have their say by completing the Thinking Ahead online survey via the City’s website wanneroo.wa.gov.au/consultations.

More consultation on Green Growth PlanThe City of Wanneroo is pleased the comment period on a draft State Government document has been extended, giving landowners more

time to investigate how it may aff ect any future land use.

The extension came after Mayor Tracey Roberts wrote to the Minister for Planning expressing concern on behalf of the community at the

lack of detail provided in the Perth and Peel Green Growth Plan for 3.5 Million and calling for greater consultation.

The comment period has now been extended to Friday, 13 May 2015.

To view the Green Grown Plan please visit: http://www.planning.wa.gov.au/publications/8220.asp

For information on making a submission or any other enquiries, please contact Department of Premier and Cabinet on 6552 5151
