newly composed music including<br />

the world premiere<br />

of a new piece by Putneybased<br />

Jenny’s grandfather was<br />

Swedish. She has previously<br />

released a critically<br />

acclaimed CD of Swedish<br />

music with her acoustic ensemble,<br />

<strong>The</strong> Marais Project.<br />

“We’ve been working<br />

on this project for months<br />

now”, Eriksson said. “<strong>The</strong><br />

music is fantastic, and I am<br />

sure anyone who comes<br />

along will enjoy it.”<br />

“Anyone that is familiar with Ryde knows<br />

that overdevelopment is hurting our community”<br />

Victor Dominello said yesterday.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> most recent decision by Ryde<br />

Council to support a 60 storey tower in<br />

Macquarie Park is evidence of this and is<br />

sheer madness.”<br />

Ryde’s Local Environment Plan (LEP)<br />

sets the rules for assessment of planning<br />

proposals across Ryde and has not been<br />

updated since 2014.<br />

Victor has appealed to the Planning Minister<br />

(Lane Cove MP Anthony Roberts) to<br />

freeze the approval of any further high<br />

density development in the Ryde Council<br />

area and immediate surrounds until a<br />

proper independent assessment has been<br />

undertaken to assess community impact.<br />

Victor added.<br />

“But this growth can only be sustained<br />

with adequate investment in critical infrastructure.<br />

Anyone familiar with Ryde understands that overdevelopment<br />

is hurting our community.<br />

Today I write not only as your Member of Parliament<br />

but as a local resident, frustrated like you about the over<br />

development in Ryde.<br />

Ryde Council’s planning laws are broken. Council’s Local<br />

Environment Plan (LEP) sets the rules for assessment of<br />

planning proposals across our community, and has not<br />

been revised or updated since 2014. <strong>The</strong>se rules are failing<br />

our community when it comes to overdevelopment, and<br />

could see as many as 15,000 lots in Ryde made available<br />

for medium density development.<br />

By comparison our neighbouring Lane Cove Council<br />

has an LEP that better protects its community from higher<br />

density.<br />

Victor Member For Ryde<br />

Dominello MP<br />

Minister for Finance, Services and Property<br />

This situation was recently highlighted in Lexcen Place<br />

Marsfield – when Ryde Council zoned this area as R3 (‘medium<br />

density’) in 2010 and reaffirmed this in 2014 instead<br />

of rezoning the area to R2 (‘residential’). As a result, a<br />

developer lodged an application to build apartments which<br />

is completely out of line with the amenity of the area and<br />

community expectation.<br />

Instead of updating its LEP years ago to protect our<br />

community as it should have, Ryde Council is now shifting<br />

the blame to the Department of Planning.<br />

<strong>The</strong> most recent Council decision to support a 60 storey<br />

tower in Macquarie Park has brought our community to<br />

boiling point and highlights the fact again that Council’s<br />

LEP is broken. It is time for action. <strong>The</strong> LEP must be<br />

changed and Council must do it.<br />

For example, in 2015 the LEP allowed for a height of 10<br />

storeys on Lane Cove Road in Macquarie Park. At their<br />

meeting on 10 March 2015 Council approved a 20 storey<br />

building to be built at 388 Lane Cove Road in Macquarie<br />

Park. In order for this approval to go ahead the LEP was<br />

changed, by council, to accommodate this extra development.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y received $1.6 M in developer contributions for<br />

allowing this development.<br />

As noted in the example above, Council has previously<br />

made amendments to its LEP. My personal opinion is that<br />

a revised LEP should look at significantly reducing the<br />

existing high and medium density benchmarks given the<br />

development already approved and the strain our community<br />

is already facing.<br />

I have taken a stand with community and fought hard<br />

against overdevelopment. We have successfully reduced<br />

the height and scale of developments including at Meadowbank,<br />

Whiteside Street, and Allengrove Crescent in<br />

North Ryde. Together we won the fight to keep open<br />

space at Blenheim Park and Tennis World in North Ryde<br />

and Smalls Road in Ryde, where a new primary school is<br />

currently being built. This year, we are fighting against any<br />

proposed development of the TG Millner<br />

Fields at Marsfield.<br />

Ryde Council must amend their<br />

LEP to stop the development in<br />

Ryde. Only Ryde Council has<br />

the power to do so. Please Ryde<br />

Council, urgently update your<br />

LEP.<br />

4 THE WEEKLY TIMES Wednesday 9 <strong>May</strong>, <strong>2018</strong><br />

Manor houses not<br />

wanted in Ryde<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

Reading <strong>TWT</strong> (<strong>May</strong> 2,<br />

<strong>2018</strong>) there were two full<br />

page adverts with differing<br />

points of view over the new<br />

building codes.<br />

One issue in particular<br />

grabbed my attention, the<br />

manor houses which allow<br />

four dwellings on as little as<br />

a 600 square metreblock.<br />

A duplex on that size is a<br />

squeeze.<br />

But four?<br />

I know who I trust on this.<br />

Ryde Councilis our local<br />

elected body, made up of all<br />

parties and independents.<br />

As they say in their advertisement<br />

this very significantly<br />

increases density<br />

in low density areas and<br />

should be rejected.<br />

Ryde municipalityhas already<br />

had more than its fairshare<br />

of development.<br />

GRAEME CORDINER<br />

Objection to<br />

Putney DA<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

<strong>The</strong> residents of both<br />

McGowan Street and Putney<br />

Parade Putney are objecting<br />

to a development<br />

application proposed at 26<br />

McGowan Street Putney.<br />

<strong>The</strong> development clearly<br />

breaches the council’s own<br />

numerical rear setback<br />

controls from the water.<br />

This breach negatively<br />

impacts on amenity of the<br />

surrounding land by way of<br />

visual impact, view loss, privacy<br />

and overshadowing.<br />

A building with a compliant<br />

rear setback from the<br />

water would result in a lesser<br />

impact and it will be more<br />

comparable with surrounding<br />

developments.<br />

<strong>The</strong> nearby developments<br />

all adopt a terraced style<br />

approach to their sloping<br />

lands and step down the<br />

site to remain two storeys<br />

in height for majority of the<br />

building.<br />

<strong>The</strong> development proposal<br />

however will include<br />

three stroreys for a large<br />

portion of the building and<br />

up to four storeys for a significant<br />

area of the building.<br />

This is outside of the<br />

councils development control<br />

plans.<br />

<strong>The</strong> numerical rear setback<br />

breach is a substantial<br />

breach of the Ryde Council’s<br />

development control<br />

codes and leads to a direct<br />

conflict with neighbouring<br />

properties.<br />

Should this ever be approved<br />

it would establish an<br />

Letters to the Editor<br />

undesirable precedent for<br />

both immediate and long<br />

term residential re-developments<br />

around Morrison<br />

Bay.<br />

Everyone will be able to<br />

build a four storey house<br />

closer to the water!<br />

We have given the council<br />

a signed petition with<br />

twelve of the surrounding<br />

neighbours who all object<br />

to the development.<br />

We urge council to listen<br />

to its local residents and<br />

enforce its own development<br />

control codes and<br />

stop non-compliant developments.<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

Chinese officials recently<br />

took aim at our education<br />

authorities virtually accusing<br />

them of discriminating<br />

against Chinese students<br />

by not letting more of them<br />

in.<br />

<strong>The</strong> sheer hide of these<br />

idiots.<br />

It is a fact that Chinese<br />

students make up the largest<br />

percentage of overseas<br />

students studying here, and<br />

have been for years.<br />

In fact most of the over<br />

half million overseas students<br />

now studying here<br />

came from the Asian region,<br />

China, Malaysia, India,<br />

Vietnam and Nepal of<br />

all places.<br />

<strong>The</strong> obvious question to<br />

ask is why are they coming<br />

here to study in such huge<br />

numbers.<br />

As is well documented<br />

our education system is<br />

very far from being up there<br />

with the best in the world.<br />

Some people would argue<br />

that we are breeding a nation<br />

of under achievers otherwise<br />

there would be no<br />

need for the flawed, failed<br />

and easily scammed so<br />

called «Skilled Immigration<br />

Program».<br />

So what attracts them to<br />

our country in such enormous<br />

numbers?<br />

My opinion is that not<br />

only are they allowed to<br />

buy property here (making<br />

a fortune in capital gains<br />

and sub letting) but they are<br />

virtually guaranteed Australian<br />

residency at the end<br />

of their studies.<br />

What a scam and rort this<br />

is as many of them will not<br />

find work in their chosen<br />

field.<br />

I have met plenty of<br />

Taxi drivers, Uber drivers,<br />

Pizza delivery drivers etc.<br />

who have completed their<br />

«studies» here.<br />

<strong>The</strong> useless morons in<br />

Canberra are virtually handing<br />

out Australian citizenship<br />

to people who can<br />

afford to study here rather<br />

than on merit.<br />

It allows these students<br />

to then sponsor their families<br />

and relations to migrate<br />

here.<br />

Is at any wonder then, as<br />

Pauline Hanson once famously<br />

said, that «we are<br />

being swamped by Asians».<br />

TONY IKONOMOU<br />

Hunters Hill<br />

Which ‘Facts’ are<br />

the real Facts?<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

In last week’s edition<br />

there was a page of information<br />

from NSW<br />

Government Planning &<br />

Environment giving ‘’THE<br />

FACTS’’ about the new<br />

planning code (Low Rise<br />

Medium Density Housing)<br />

to be introduced from 6<br />

July <strong>2018</strong>.<br />

In particular the new<br />

housing term ‘’Manor<br />

house’’ was explained. It<br />

claimed that ‘’these homes<br />

will fit into existing neighbourhoods’’<br />

and councils’<br />

planning codes.<br />

On another page Ryde<br />

Council urged the reader<br />

to ‘’SAVE our streets’’ and<br />

stated ‘’THE REAL FACTS’’<br />

which, overall, implied that<br />

the state government is<br />

imposing new undesirable<br />

rules on Ryde Council.<br />

So which participant in<br />

what has become a blame<br />

game do we, the residents<br />

and ratepayers of Ryde,<br />

believe?<br />

Both parties need to get<br />

together, put politics aside<br />

and sort this out.<br />

One FACT is clear.<br />

In recent years people<br />

across all of Ryde have<br />

coped with the effects<br />

from considerable extra<br />

development in certain areas<br />

close to public transport.<br />

Another FACT is that we<br />

don’t want anymore, especially<br />

in areas that currently<br />

contain low rise low<br />

density housing.<br />

Enough is enough.<br />

LYN LANGTRY<br />

East Ryde<br />

New State Housing<br />

Code welcomed<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

Thank you to the State<br />

Government. <strong>The</strong> new<br />

Housing Code is greatly<br />

welcomed.<br />

I agree to the low to medium<br />

density housing to<br />

meet the demands of population<br />

growth across the<br />

community.<br />

Most Australians do not<br />

aspire to apartment living<br />

communities and as<br />

the consumer should have<br />

more choices that resembles<br />

the Australian culture.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Body Corporate<br />

managing numerous property<br />

issues and owner<br />

complaints is a burden.<br />

With high rise residential<br />

developments, property<br />

owners take a risk<br />

when purchasing newly<br />

constructed apartments,<br />

should they be embroiled<br />

with builders warranty<br />

matters due to shonky<br />

workmanship given the<br />

lackadaisical approach by<br />

PCAs and contractors taking<br />

short cuts.<br />

Smaller developments<br />

are far more “controlled”<br />

and efficient to construct<br />

given the shorter construction<br />

phase and to manage<br />

by the body corporate.<br />

<strong>The</strong> public can surmise<br />

corporate property developers<br />

have used up their<br />

cat lives by now for the<br />

many published misdemeanours<br />

and negligent<br />

cases.<br />

Council failing to follow<br />

processes and procedures<br />

therefore wasting public<br />

money, when forced to<br />

seek ICAC inquisitions for<br />

misconduct of its internal<br />

members.<br />

<strong>The</strong> new Housing Code<br />

will permit small to medium<br />

property developers<br />

to strike in a market that<br />

has been monopolised by<br />

unscrupulous corporate<br />

property developers.<br />

Council is now reiterating<br />

the adage “loss of amenity”<br />

and “traffic congestion”<br />

which was always reiterated<br />

by the public at large for<br />

the high residential density<br />

developments such<br />

as Putney Hill Project and<br />

Shepherd’s Bay, Meadowbank;<br />

what has changed<br />

anyway? Nothing.<br />

So why reiterate this<br />

clique for the new Housing<br />

Code when the bulk<br />

and scale is 3-4 storey built<br />

form, compared to the 8-11<br />

storey built form to date?<br />

I support low to medium<br />

density developments<br />

spread evenly across the<br />

community as a whole, and<br />

is functional in communities<br />

of the like such as the<br />

UK and Europe.<br />

It is visually pleasing with<br />

community green forums,<br />

open space and local<br />

shops in walking distance<br />

are ecosystems for communities.<br />

Generally speaking,<br />

there is less impact on<br />

the local streets and traffic<br />

impact compared to the<br />

super-sized MacDonald’s<br />

(type) major development<br />

sites.<br />

<strong>The</strong> State Government<br />

and Council must also provide<br />

green corridors evenly<br />

spread across the communities<br />

to balance the increase<br />

of property density<br />

in our local streets.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re will be greater<br />

transparency with small<br />

to medium developments<br />

processed by Council<br />

given its lack of resources<br />

and to reduce its errors in<br />

the administration process<br />

such as its handling of major<br />

development applications.<br />

<strong>The</strong> new Housing Code<br />

will reduce the oligopoly<br />

that currently exists with<br />

the property development<br />

industry and should be<br />

welcomed for fairness,<br />

economical reasons and<br />

social benefits.<br />

Hunters Hill Guest Column<br />

Joubert Singers celebrate with<br />

Silver Anniversary Concerts<br />

IN <strong>2018</strong> the Joubert<br />

Singers have been singing<br />

together<br />

as Hunters Hill’s community<br />

choir for 25 years.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Joubert Singers began<br />

in 1993 as a group<br />

of local singers and over<br />

the last quarter century<br />

evolved into a vocal ensemble<br />

attracting singers<br />

and audiences from Sydney<br />

and beyond to experience<br />

the joy of sharing<br />

great music from around<br />

the world and across the<br />

centuries.<br />

<strong>The</strong> choir took its name<br />

from the brothers Jules<br />

and Didier Joubert, who<br />

established the district as<br />

one of Australia’s first residential<br />

suburbs, building<br />

some of its most beautiful<br />

sandstone historic<br />

edifices, and serving as its<br />

first mayor and liquor merchant.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Joubert Singers<br />

Choir has since interwoven<br />

itself into Hunters<br />

Hill’s history, commissioning<br />

and performing works<br />

about the locality, participating<br />

in its sesquicentenary<br />

celebrations, and in<br />

the protests to save Hunters<br />

Hill from the recent<br />

threatened council merger.<br />

* * *<br />

WITH A focus on music<br />

by the great choral<br />

composers such as Mozart,<br />

the Haydn brothers,<br />

Vivaldi and Bach, the choir<br />

also celebrates its heritage<br />

with numerous French<br />

choral works including by<br />

Poulenc, Faur, and Charpentier.<br />

We are particularly fortunate<br />

to have had the<br />

To <strong>The</strong> POINT<br />

with MARK ALLERTON<br />

brilliant and inspiring Rachelle<br />

Elliott as Artistic Director<br />

for the last 15 years.<br />

<strong>The</strong> three concerts this<br />

year will present the different<br />

styles of music sung<br />

by the choir: religious<br />

and secular music from<br />

different countries, with<br />

an emphasis on French<br />

and Scandinavian music;<br />

modern music, including<br />

very recent Australian and<br />

Icelandic works, and popular<br />

and more exotic carols<br />

in our annual Christmas<br />

concert.<br />

* * *<br />

THE FIRST Silver Anniversary<br />

concert titled<br />

Belles Voix will be held on<br />

Sunday <strong>May</strong> 27 in Gladesville-Boronia<br />

Park Uniting<br />

Church at 2.30pm.<br />

This concert showcases<br />

the choir’s affinity with<br />

French music, with two<br />

works by Gabriel Faur,,<br />

some French chansons<br />

and part-songs. It also will<br />

present some 21st century<br />

Australian works including<br />

an Australian premiere<br />

of Heather Percy’s <strong>The</strong><br />

Garden of Love.<br />

<strong>The</strong> acclaimed harpist<br />

Verna Lee will also perform<br />

a solo recital as our<br />

special guest.<br />

Verna is a local musician<br />

with an international reputation,<br />

who has played<br />

with orchestras such as<br />

the Australian Youth Orchestra,<br />

the Singapore<br />

Symphony, Sydney Symphony,<br />

Australian Opera<br />

and Ballet Orchestra,<br />

Adelaide Symphony and<br />

Tasmanian Symphony orchestras.<br />

She played the harp for<br />

the movie <strong>The</strong> Matrix, and<br />

has even played in the<br />

Sydney Harbour Tunnel.<br />

At this concert she will<br />

play music on the triple<br />

harp as well as the full<br />

harp.<br />

* * *<br />

IN SEPTEMBER’S Silver<br />

Jubilee Concert, the<br />

choir will sing the Vespers<br />

Solemnes de Confessore<br />

K339 by Mozart and<br />

some Nordic choral music,<br />

a choir and audience<br />

favourite.<br />

<strong>The</strong> choir’s tradition of<br />

Christmas concerts continues<br />

this year, focusing<br />

on Australian Christmas<br />

carols and JS Bach’s Jesu<br />

meine Freude.<br />

<strong>The</strong> choir is delighted to<br />

welcome new members,<br />

and although sight reading<br />

is an advantage, it is<br />

not required.<br />

6 THE WEEKLY TIMES Wednesday 9 <strong>May</strong>, <strong>2018</strong><br />

Many hands to make communities<br />

FOUR Riverside Girls High students have launched a project to<br />

encourage other students to spend less time on social media and<br />

more time helping the community.<br />

Students Marcelle<br />

Hakikat, Neda Pourali,<br />

Kelsey Feng and Ava<br />

Daltrey launced the<br />

Helping Hand App at<br />

the school last Friday<br />

as part of the Young<br />

Change Agents program.<br />

<strong>The</strong>ir research reveals<br />

that students spend up<br />

to nine hours a day on<br />

social media with an<br />

average of six hours per<br />

day.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y hope the Helping<br />

Hands App - to be<br />

promoted through <strong>The</strong><br />

<strong>Weekly</strong> <strong>Times</strong>, when<br />

built - will attract sponsors<br />

as well as nonprofit<br />

community organisations<br />

who need<br />

student volunteers.<br />

<strong>The</strong>ir research also<br />

shows that community<br />

organisations rarely advertise<br />

for volunteers<br />

and the project aims to<br />

encourage them to seek<br />

enthusiastic stiudents.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y aim to raise<br />

around $3,000 to launch<br />

the project and have already<br />

received enthusiastic<br />

support from visiting<br />

students from Wee<br />

Waa High School.<br />

Participants in the<br />

Helping Hands initiative<br />

will receive merit<br />

badges.<br />

Riverview School<br />

Principal Belinda Kelly<br />

praised all student<br />

groups who took part<br />

in the Young Change<br />

Agents program.<br />

“This is a cross-curriculum<br />

program that<br />

encompasses elements<br />

of commerce, English,<br />

maths, drama, computers<br />

and art and includes<br />

a showcase of the enterprise<br />

projects,” she<br />

said.<br />

“Students took this<br />

opportunity to validate<br />

their ideas on how<br />

might we make a positive<br />

difference and we<br />

are delighted to involve<br />

Wee Waa in the program.”<br />

Belinda said Riverside<br />

Girls High aims to teach<br />

students about community<br />

responsibility and<br />

enterprise.<br />

“Students will,<br />

through a journey of exploration,<br />

increase their<br />

awareness of problems<br />

and opportunities available<br />

in their communities.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>y learn social<br />

entrepreneurship and<br />

start-up skills through<br />

activities about social<br />

enterprise, problem<br />

solving through new<br />

ideas, customer empathy<br />

mapping, market research<br />

and budgeting.<br />

“Through Friday’s initiative<br />

they will gain a<br />

better understanding of<br />

leadership, increased<br />

self confidence, improved<br />

communication<br />

skills, improved goal<br />

setting strategies and a<br />

better use of time management<br />

strategies.”<br />

Hunters Hill declares new<br />

wildlife protection parks<br />

BUFFALO Creek Reserve<br />

and Boronia<br />

Park have been declared<br />

Wildlife Protection<br />

Areas.<br />

This areas will no prohibit<br />

actions and pactices<br />

deemed to be a threat to<br />

wildlife and include a ban<br />

on domestic cats.<br />

“Wildlife Protection Areas<br />

(WPAs) provide a refuge<br />

for our wildlife where<br />

the impacts of threats can<br />

be managed,” Hunters Hill<br />

Council Bushland Management<br />

Officer Jacqui Vollmer<br />

said.<br />

“Boronia Park and Buffalo<br />

Creek Reserve have been<br />

declared Wildlife Protection<br />

Areas to provide a greater<br />

level of protection to native<br />

wildlife from the adverse<br />

impacts of cat predation.<br />

“As domestic cats are<br />

prohibited, responsibility<br />

is placed on cat owners to<br />

prevent their pet cat from<br />

entering these bushland<br />

reserves.”<br />

Signage will be installed<br />

at reserve entrances and<br />

Colin Bond speaker at<br />

Hunters Hill Rotary event<br />

WIDELY respected Australian racing driver<br />

and former Bathurst 1000 winner Colin Bond AO<br />

is guest speaker at Rotary Club of Hunters Hill’s<br />

function tonight Wednesday <strong>May</strong> 9 at Gladesville<br />

Sporties Club from 7.30 pm.<br />

<strong>The</strong> accomplished<br />

Bond is best known for<br />

his 1969 Hardie-Ferodo<br />

(now Bathurst 1000) triumph<br />

while driving a<br />

Holden Monaro plus the<br />

famous 1,2 finish in 1977<br />

when the two Ford Falcon<br />

Superbirds thundered<br />

down Conrod Straight in<br />

the 1-2 position with Alan<br />

Moffat and Colin racing<br />

for first position.<br />

A versatile driver, Bond<br />

neighbouring properties<br />

will receive an “Information<br />

for Cat Owners Neighbouring<br />

a Wildlife Protection<br />

Area” brochure.<br />

Bushland staff will also<br />

talk with residents adjoining<br />

bushland reserves<br />

about strategies to keep<br />

cats out of these zones.<br />

<strong>The</strong>se strategies will also<br />

serve to protect cats from<br />

preditors - particularly feral<br />

foxes - and from wildlife<br />

carrying diseases harmful<br />

to cats.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> Cat Protection Society<br />

of NSW recommends<br />

that all cats be kept strictly<br />

indoors overnight and that<br />

cats confined to their own<br />

properties are more likely to<br />

live longer, healthier lives,”<br />

Ms Vollmer said.<br />

Council staff will conduct<br />

strategic trapping program<br />

and if a domestic cat is<br />

trapped, its owner will be<br />

notified with a cautioned by<br />

council rangers.<br />

Repeated failure by a<br />

cat owner to appropriately<br />

manage their pet cat may<br />

result in fines up to $880.<br />

“Our aim is to strike a<br />

balance between responsible<br />

cat ownership and the<br />

protection of our local native<br />

wildlife so that reserves<br />

can support viable long<br />

term populations of native<br />

wildlife.<br />

EASTWOOD COMMUNITY NEWS<br />

Cantonese Opera Concert<br />

My friends always ask me if I’ll be bored with<br />

nothing to do after retiring from being the chairman<br />

of the Eastwood Lunar New Year Celebration<br />

Committee a couple of months ago.<br />

I tell them the usual, that I look forward to travelling,<br />

spending time with my grandkids and doing<br />

more exercise. But the truth is that I know I<br />

would miss the community very much if I were<br />

to step down entirely. That’s why I continue to<br />

keep busy with other great community groups<br />

such as the Multicultural NSW’s Regional Advisory<br />

Council, Eastwood Chamber of Commerce,<br />

Ryde Hospital’s Consumers Committee, and the<br />

AAAB Harmony Soccer Cup. In particular I cherish<br />

the memories I have made as President of<br />

the Eastwood Chinese Senior Citizens Club, the<br />

group I started volunteering for since 1997.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Seniors Club offers a whole range of recreational,<br />

cultural, educational and welfare activities<br />

for our members, many of whom are retired<br />

like myself. Our weekly Wednesday activities<br />

have only been possible with the support of our<br />

venue, St Philip’s Anglican Church, and that’s<br />

we are proud to present a Cantonese opera<br />

concert Wednesday week to help raise funds for<br />

their renovation.<br />

Details of the concert:<br />

Date: Wednesday <strong>May</strong> 30, <strong>2018</strong><br />

Time: 10.30am-12.30pm<br />

MOTHER'S.<br />

others Day moment brings back childhood memories<br />

CHILDHOOD memories of Mothers Day were<br />

fondly recalled by local mum Renae Hons when<br />

her son Lucas told her how much he loved her<br />

on Friday.<br />

She said Friday’s magical<br />

moment brought back<br />

memories of cakes, kisses,<br />

flowers and getting<br />

up early in the morning to<br />

surprise her own mum.<br />

“I especially remember<br />

going out to buy a beautiful<br />

present for mum and<br />

the most beautiful present<br />

I found was a beautiful<br />

glass with gum nuts on it,”<br />

she said.<br />

“Today my mum lives in<br />

the Czech Republic and I<br />

miss her terribly, so I will<br />

be thinking about her a lot<br />

on Mothers Day.<br />

“I have so many wonderful<br />

memories of Mothers<br />

Day and of course I’ll<br />

never forget the look in<br />

my son’s eyes when he<br />

first wished me a happy<br />

Mothers Day and gave me<br />

a present.<br />

“Of course, this Mothers<br />

Day my own children<br />

plan to get up early and<br />

surprise me and are just<br />

as excited as I was when<br />

I was.”<br />

Renae said it is important<br />

to have a day that<br />

honours mothers and is<br />

thrilled the school will also<br />

host an event to show appreciation.<br />

“As a mum you don’t<br />

think about all the things<br />

you do, so to have a day<br />

where a school shows<br />

how much it cares is very<br />

special.”<br />

Putney Public School<br />

Principal John Koletti<br />

agreed.<br />

“Our event is a way<br />

we can show mums and<br />

grand mums, godmothers<br />

and aunts how important<br />

they are in the life of our<br />

school,” he said.<br />

“And they are very important,<br />

from running<br />

the canteen to being on<br />

the P&C to collecting for<br />

the second hand clothes<br />

drive.<br />

“But most importantly<br />

of all they support their<br />

children, they drive them<br />

to and from school, they<br />

watch them play sport and<br />

they help with their homework<br />

and stand by them<br />

when they feel unwell.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>re’s so many, many<br />

things mothers give that I<br />

can honestly say they are<br />

the backbone of our community.”<br />

Mr Koletti thanked<br />

McGrath Real Estate of<br />

Hunters Hill for donating<br />

100 carnations for the<br />

event and other sponsors<br />

for contributing prizes<br />

to the Mothers Day luck<br />

draw.<br />

“Last but by no means<br />

least, I want to thank Renae<br />

and our other mums<br />

for creating some wonderful<br />

cakes for us and arranging<br />

the flowers.”<br />

Renae is pictured in this <strong>TWT</strong> on-the-spot PHOTO with Lucas and friend Scarlett Murphy at Putney Public School<br />

on Friday afternoon as they helped prepare cup cakes and arrange flowers for the school’s Mothers Day Breakfast<br />

this Thursday morning.<br />

THE WEEKLY TIMES<br />

MOTHERS DAY<br />

Baby boomers speeding<br />

up, not slowing down - in<br />

the new active retirement<br />

WITH on-site facilities making it easier than ever to exercise and<br />

stay active, a new generation of aged care residents aren’t slowing<br />

down during their senior years - they’re speeding up.<br />

After moving into purpose-built<br />

aged care<br />

living developments,<br />

today’s baby boomers,<br />

are finding that without<br />

having to devote time<br />

to maintaining the family<br />

home, they have time<br />

to take up new hobbies,<br />

join social activities and<br />

start exercising.<br />

Easy access to ageappropriate<br />

activities<br />

and equipment is<br />

encouraging participation<br />

too, says Ms<br />

Kerry Mann, CEO of<br />

Cranbrook Care, which<br />

operates five retirement<br />

living and aged care<br />

residences in NSW.<br />

“Our new developments<br />

including Bella<br />

Vista Gardens in the<br />

Hills District and Bayswater<br />

Gardens in<br />

the inner west feature<br />

on-site Reflections<br />

Wellness Centres,<br />

complete with hydrotherapy<br />

pools, group<br />

fitness spaces and<br />

gymnasiums, “she said.<br />

“Besides the exceptional<br />

facilities on offer,<br />

we’re finding residents<br />

feel more confident to<br />

join in physical activities,<br />

or learn new skills<br />

in friendly, group settings,<br />

with like-minded<br />

peers,” said Ms Mann.<br />

“Many of our residents<br />

who’ve never joined a<br />

gym before are enjoying<br />

using our brand-new<br />

age-appropriate exercise<br />

equipment, while<br />

others are loving taking<br />

part in regular yoga<br />

classes and hydrotherapy<br />

sessions in the pool.<br />

What’s certain is that<br />

residents love the fact<br />

they no longer need to<br />

negotiate parking, sign<br />

costly gym contracts or<br />

feel anxious about joining<br />

a new activity on<br />

their own.”<br />

Ms Mann said the<br />

feedback from residents<br />

has been overwhelmingly<br />

positive,<br />

with most embracing<br />

the physical activities<br />

program due to the<br />

easy on-site access<br />

and high participation<br />

rate among the community,<br />

eliminating any<br />

trepidation around taking<br />

up new pursuits.<br />

“We’re realising that<br />

for many of our residents,<br />

rather than reducing<br />

their activity<br />

levels, or giving up hobbies<br />

when they move<br />

into seniors living, for<br />

many of our residents<br />

the opposite is true<br />

- they’re making the<br />

most of time they used<br />

to spend maintaining<br />

their family homes<br />

to explore the diverse<br />

physical and recreational<br />

activities on offer…and<br />

they’re making<br />

new friends too!”<br />

And for those residents<br />

seeking a gentler<br />

level of physical activity,<br />

Ms Mann said Cranbrook<br />

offers a range of<br />

incursions, excursions,<br />

art classes, history discussions<br />

and more to<br />

encourage plenty of<br />

social engagement and<br />

mental stimulation for<br />

residents.<br />

Physiotherapist with<br />

Cranbrook Care, Sanjay<br />

Gupta, added: “<strong>The</strong>re’s<br />

plenty of evidence underlining<br />

the benefits of<br />

increasing, rather than<br />

decreasing, physical<br />

activity as we age, and<br />

the advantages go beyond<br />

reducing the risk<br />

of heart disease and<br />

diabetes, lowering cholesterol<br />

and maintaining<br />

muscle mass and joint<br />

mobility. Those who are<br />

physically active may<br />

suffer less anxiety and<br />

depression and remain<br />

more mentally agile<br />

too.”<br />

As we age, Sanjay<br />

suggests we undertake<br />

a program of exercise<br />

which includes resistance<br />

training to boost<br />

strength, gentle aerobic<br />

exercise to improve<br />

cardiovascular health,<br />

and Pilates or yoga to<br />

help coordination and<br />

flexibility.<br />

“Even when medical<br />

circumstances mean<br />

residents need a higher<br />

level of care, which is<br />

the case for many of the<br />

residents at Cranbrook<br />

Care’s aged care residences,<br />

we should never<br />

underestimate the<br />

value of physical and<br />

mental activity, as well<br />

as regular social interaction,”<br />

Sanjay added.<br />

everyday women<br />

whose grace, individuality<br />

She believes in the wonderful<br />

An innovative Finnish firm<br />

hopes to bring the Northern<br />

Sun to Ryde.<br />

Igor Rodet the CEO of Finland’s<br />

Lumitar firm hosted a<br />

trial of it’s solar powered light at<br />

Meadowbank Park this week and<br />

City of Ryde Clr Trenton Brown<br />

was impressed by what he saw.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>se lights are highly efficient<br />

and can be used to floodlight<br />

a sportsfield or a car park,”<br />

he said.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>y will reduce our carbon<br />

footprint and most importantly<br />

reduce our costs because each<br />

light has a 25 year lifespan, which<br />

means we don’t have to send out<br />

work crews to change bulbs.<br />

“I was excited by the demonstration<br />

and I will certainly advocate<br />

for a trial across the City of<br />

Ryde.”<br />

solar powered light. <strong>TWT</strong><br />

of private certifiers paid to approve two storey buildings in one storey<br />

bungalow neighbourhoods.<br />

In an exclusive interview<br />

with <strong>The</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong> <strong>Times</strong>,<br />

Deputy Secretary, Policy<br />

and Strategy (NSW Department<br />

of Planning<br />

& Environment) Alison<br />

Frame revealed the reforms<br />

are expected to<br />

come into force by Christmas<br />

and will crack down<br />

on certifiers paid by property<br />

developers to issue<br />

compliance approval for<br />

controversial developments.<br />

<strong>The</strong> issue is a major concern<br />

in the City of Ryde<br />

where angry ratepayers<br />

recently addressed a<br />

council meeting to blast<br />

private certifiers, known<br />

to be under pressure to<br />

certify development proposals<br />

for the clients who<br />

hire them.<br />

But what goes up might<br />

come down.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>re will now be powers<br />

of the courts to knock<br />

down things that are<br />

found not to be compliant,”<br />

Alison Frame said.<br />

“Planning Minister and<br />

Lane Cove MP Anthony<br />

Roberts is keen to see<br />

reforms and councils will<br />

have the power to stop<br />

work for seven days to<br />

ensure compliance.”<br />

City of Ryde Councillor<br />

Roy Maggio (pictured)<br />

said the local council<br />

does not have enough<br />

staff to supervise private<br />

certifiers “on the job” and<br />

has heard cases where<br />

neighbours have alleged<br />

council staff have virtually<br />

taken the private certifiers<br />

compliance approval on<br />

trust.<br />

Alison Frame takes up<br />

the point.<br />

“What we have found<br />

is that there is a big gap<br />

in the system because<br />

councils weren’t resourced<br />

and so we have<br />

created a new system<br />

where council’s can resource<br />

(employ) a compliance<br />

officer and the<br />

council is going to be resourced<br />

through a levy,”<br />

Ms Frame said.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> levy will increase<br />

the cost to developers<br />

because private certifiers<br />

will add this cost to<br />

their bills but it will still<br />

be thousands of dollars<br />

cheaper and faster than<br />

trying to get development<br />

approval under the previous<br />

system.”<br />

This is very much in line<br />

with the government’s rationale<br />

of trying to make<br />

the development application<br />

process as cheap<br />

and easy as it is to get a<br />

mechanic to certify a car<br />

as road worthy for registration.<br />

But Councillor Roy<br />

Maggio believes there<br />

are private certifiers only<br />

too willing to cash in on<br />

a cheap and easy procedure.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>y have been cut<br />

loose on Ryde and a lot of<br />

things are being too easily<br />

ticked off as compliant or<br />

swept under the carpet,”<br />

he said.<br />

“I have had 554 complaints<br />

about this in Ryde<br />

alone due to overdevelopment<br />

and because our<br />

council is under staffed<br />

and under resourced to<br />

crack down on it.”<br />

Councillor Maggio made<br />

his comments on Friday<br />

at the home of the Jade<br />

and Todd Percy in Morrison<br />

Road, Gladesville<br />

where a private certifier<br />

signed off on a two storey<br />

neighbouring development<br />

(pictured) that was<br />

deemed to be a compliant<br />

granny flat.<br />

“We moved into our<br />

new home two and a half<br />

years ago because it had<br />

a backyard where our<br />

baby Joe could play and<br />

because it had privacy for<br />

us,” Jade Percy said.<br />

“What has happened to<br />

us is awful, with this massive<br />

granny flat development<br />

next door built right<br />

up to our fence and overshadowing<br />

our backyard.<br />

“All we knew about it<br />

was that it went up in<br />

March and we were given<br />

a letter asking us to respond<br />

within seven days,<br />

if we had any problems !<br />

“And of course there are<br />

problems, not the least of<br />

which has been workers<br />

starting noisy construction<br />

work before 8 am in<br />

the morning, right next to<br />

our bedrooms.”<br />

Alison Frame concedes<br />

that Councillor Maggio<br />

and the Percy family are<br />

far from being lone voices.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>re have been<br />

breaches here and there<br />

and there have been big<br />

breaches.”<br />

“<strong>The</strong>re have been problems<br />

from the beginning<br />

and this is why we are<br />

reforming the compliance<br />

around private certifiers,<br />

there was certainly not<br />

community confidence or<br />

council confidence.”<br />

Alison Frame warns not<br />

to expect change overnight.<br />

“Our big concern, our<br />

big concern, is that we<br />

are not training enough<br />

people as private certifiers<br />

and we are working<br />

with TAFE on this.”<br />

In the City of Ryde where<br />

<strong>May</strong>or Jerome Laxale has<br />

introduced a Save Our<br />

Streets campaign while in<br />

neighbouring Hunters Hill,<br />

<strong>May</strong>or Mark Bennett concedes<br />

there are ratepayers<br />

who do not like the<br />

state government removing<br />

local councillors powers<br />

to determine local development<br />

applications.<br />

“I do think private certifiers<br />

are under pressure<br />

from the people who<br />

employ them, simply because<br />

their business depends<br />

on it,” he said.<br />

Alison Frame said Hunters<br />

Hill has significant<br />

protection.<br />

“You cannot do a complying<br />

development procedure<br />

in a heritage area<br />

and there is not much<br />

complying development<br />

in Hunters Hill because of<br />

that,” she said.<br />

Councillor Maggio will<br />

be watching the reforms.<br />

“What we face here in<br />

the City of Ryde is nothing<br />

less than the death of<br />

the Aussie backyard.”<br />

Help police find Cecilia’s killer<br />

DASHCAM or security<br />

camera footage<br />

from West Ryde<br />

Railway station carpark<br />

could hold the<br />

key the solving the<br />

murder mystery of<br />

a Brazillian woman<br />

from Ryde whose<br />

body was found in the<br />

Lane Cove River near<br />

Wooolwich a week<br />

ago last Sunday.<br />

POLICE ROUNDS<br />

Thirty eight year old Cecilia<br />

Haddad’s distinctive<br />

red Fiat was found at West<br />

Ryde station on the Sunday<br />

afternoon.<br />

Friends became concerned<br />

about her welfare<br />

after she failed to turn up<br />

for events on Saturday after<br />

attending a barbecue<br />

on Friday night and speaking<br />

to friends the following<br />

morning.<br />

It is not known how her<br />

car ended up at a train<br />

station and who may have<br />

been driving it, if not Ms<br />

Haddad.<br />

Strike Force Bronwyn<br />

has been established to<br />

investigate the case and<br />

police divers have been<br />

searching waters under the<br />

Gladesville Bridge for a set<br />

of keys that could be a crucial<br />

piece of evidence, although<br />

it has not been revealed<br />

who owns the keys.<br />

Kayakers discovered her<br />

body in the Lane Cove River<br />

area at around 10.15am<br />

on Sunday and alerted the<br />

authorities.<br />

Since then police have<br />

been trying to piece together<br />

the final 24 hours<br />

as her family in Brazil have<br />

appealed to the public to<br />

come forward with any information<br />

that could find<br />

her killer.<br />

Contact crimestoppers<br />

on 1800 333 000.<br />

Do any readers of <strong>The</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong> <strong>Times</strong> have dashcam<br />

or security video footage that may help police find Cecilia<br />

Haddad’s killer.<br />

Jade Percy of Morrison Road, Gladesville is shocked that a private certifier approved this so<br />

called neighbouring “granny flat” development which she she says has taken away her backyard<br />

privacy. <strong>TWT</strong> on-the-spot PHOTO.<br />

Elderly woman is<br />

killed in Gladesville<br />

AN 85 year old woman was killed crossing Victoria Road in Gladesville on Thursday.<br />

Police and paramedics responded<br />

to the fatality around<br />

10.30am after the woman attempted<br />

to cross three westbound<br />

lanes from the northern<br />

side of Victoria Road and stood<br />

on the median strip.<br />

Police report she stepped out<br />

in front a vehicle and was hit before<br />

being rushed to Royal North<br />

Shore hospital in a critical condition.<br />

<strong>The</strong> 72-year-old driver of the<br />

vehicle was taken to Ryde Hospital<br />

for mandatory blood and<br />

urine tests and charges are not<br />

expected to be laid .<br />

****<br />

A SECOND person has been<br />

arrested and charged in relation<br />

to a biting and robbery incident<br />

at Macquarie Park last month.<br />

<strong>The</strong> 17-year-old was charged<br />

with Aggravated Robbery and<br />

Inflict Actual Bodily Harm.<br />

He was refused bail and is due<br />

to appear in Surry Hills Children’s<br />

Court while a 20-year-old man is<br />

also facing court in relation to the<br />

alleged assault.<br />

Police will allege in court the<br />

13-year-old boy victim was with<br />

a friend at a shopping centre<br />

when the alleged incident occured<br />

around 11.40am on Monday<br />

April 16.<br />

It is alleged he was approached<br />

by two males who threatened<br />

him and tried to steal his shoes<br />

and pushed one of the attackers<br />

before he was assaulted.<br />

Police arrested the teenager at<br />

a medical facility.<br />

****<br />

A DISQUALIFIED DRIVER was<br />

apprehended by police in Denistone<br />

of Friday.<br />

Police allege he was driving<br />

around 8.35pm along Commissioner’s<br />

his white Holden revealed the<br />

registration had expired.<br />

Further checks found the<br />

36-year-old male driver from<br />

It’s a gem, rarely found - Superbly-located,<br />

near-new, modern home for large family<br />

WE asked our local agent Terry Ching of<br />

Metro Property Agents for her thoughts on<br />

the outlook for the local property market. Her<br />

response was quite positive.<br />

“Residential properties<br />

are always in demand<br />

due to population<br />

growth,” Terry says.<br />

“I have been serving<br />

in this area for many<br />

years. It is the most<br />

sought after by Asians.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> schools, the<br />

convenience of the cafes<br />

and restaurants are<br />

among the attractions<br />

for local residents._<br />

“About two-thirds of<br />

properties are owneroccupied<br />

and they are<br />

happy to be moving<br />

around in the same<br />

suburbs downsizing or<br />

upsizing among friends<br />

and relatives.”<br />

Terry says she sees<br />

And the banks - of<br />

course - are more<br />

than happy to get<br />

But be careful -<br />

once you do it, you<br />

doing it every year…<br />

and this can become<br />

tiresome!<br />

It’s most effective<br />

when you know<br />

you’ll fall into the<br />

1921-<strong>2018</strong><br />

Multi Award Winning Community Newspaper<br />

of June 30.<br />

Paying Interest-In-<br />

Advance makes best<br />

sense when:<br />

• You received a<br />

Capital Gain this<br />

year, or got a massive<br />

bonus<br />

• You’re taking time<br />

off next year, whether<br />

it be for an operation,<br />

a long holiday,<br />

to retire, or even to<br />

have a baby.<br />

• Is a Redundancy<br />

on the cards? If<br />

you’re an NRL player,<br />

when is your contract<br />

up for negotiation?<br />

Here’s an example:<br />

On a $1.5M investment<br />

loan at 4%,<br />

the annual interest is<br />

$60,000. If you’re in<br />

the 45% tax bracket<br />

this year due to a<br />

capital gain, but likely<br />

back within 32.5%<br />

next year, the gross<br />

benefit you get by<br />

claiming the interest<br />

prior to June 30 is a<br />

whopping $7,500.<br />

Of course, there is<br />

an effect from parting<br />

with your cash<br />

earlier, especially if<br />

you carry a home<br />

loan which you service<br />

with your aftertax<br />

dollars.<br />

This will be examined<br />

in a video to<br />

launch <strong>The</strong> Barefoot<br />

Broker this year, taking<br />

into account opportunity<br />

cost and<br />

the projected internal<br />

rate of return.<br />

Yes, an overkill,<br />

and perhaps boring,<br />

but for a mathematics<br />

junkie like myself,<br />

I can’t wait...sad,<br />

hey? <strong>The</strong> one-year<br />

fixed rates for interest-in-advance<br />

vary<br />

among banks.<br />

NAB and Westpac<br />

are at 4.49%, but<br />

CBA and ANZ offer<br />

4.19%. On another<br />

note, a quick reminder<br />

that if you can secure<br />

your investment<br />

loan by your home,<br />

we at iChoice might<br />

land you a variable<br />

rate of 3.59% (that’s<br />

a 2.08% lifetime<br />

at iChoice can be<br />

package discount).<br />

That’s just a cracker.<br />

North Epping Major Pairs<br />

PENNANT Hills took out the recent Lady Anne Funerals Triples lawn<br />

bowls tournament hosted by Denistone Sports Club. Pictured are triumphant<br />

Pennant Hills trio Don Yeates, Barry James and David Lesslie with<br />

Lady Anne representatives Cassandra Markham and Edwina Brown. <strong>The</strong><br />

Pennant Hills team sealed the trophy with three wins 46 points from the<br />

composite team of Kane Gray (Ryde X Phoenix), Ron Court (Denistone<br />

Sports) and Jim Rando (Denistone Sports) with three wins 41 points. <strong>The</strong><br />

tournament was represented by 22 clubs from all over the metropolitan<br />

area with 108 lawn bowlers.<br />

MEET the skilful Gladesville Sporties combination of Fausto Alcuri, Paul<br />

Mazaroli, Val Moscato and Ben Cutrone that captured the <strong>2018</strong> Fours<br />

Championship title. <strong>The</strong>y defeated Peter Musumeci, Gary Jones, Geoff<br />

Bricknell and Peter Coyle 22-18 in an absorbing final with Club President<br />

Mazaroli claiming bragging rights over Bowls head honcho Musumeci.<br />

IT was third time lucky for North Epping lawn bowlers Bill Daley and Paul Delves when they recently<br />

captured the Club’s <strong>2018</strong> Major Pairs championship. <strong>The</strong> wily duo (pictured holding trophy)<br />

finished strongly to edge out Tony Taylor and Mark Havron 21-18 in an enthralling final. With Bill<br />

and Paul in front by two shots and holding a slim one on the last end, Tony and Mark had well<br />

placed bowls and with an ounce of luck could have come away with three shots to steal the title.<br />

Bill and Paul have been runners up in the previous two years.<br />

Woodies slam Greens<br />

EASTWOOD first grade rugby team produced<br />

a stunning second half revival to blitz Randwick<br />

43-19 in the Intrust Super Shute Shield competition<br />

last Saturday at Coogee Oval.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Woodies posted<br />

33 unanswered points in<br />

a dominant second half<br />

performance to notch a<br />

valuable bonus point victory<br />

over the Galloping<br />

Greens.<br />

It was Eastwood’s third<br />

win of the season and after<br />

five rounds the team is<br />

entrenched in sixth spot<br />

on the premiership ladder.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Woodies trailed<br />

early but scored twice<br />

through props Dean<br />

Doumbos and Rob Lagudi<br />

late in the first half to<br />

head to the half time interval<br />

trailing by two points.<br />

A rejuvenated Eastwood<br />

ran in four second<br />

half tries to bury Randwick.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Woodies rolled<br />

Randwick in second<br />

grade (33-14), third grade<br />

(22-13), fourth grade (45-<br />

19) and Colts 3 (24-20)<br />

but lost 35-15 in Colts 1<br />

and 52-5 in Colts 2.<br />
