Your letters and emails . . . Big Brother
I read with interest ‘Is Big Brother in the library?’ in the 19 May edition of Sun City News because there is more invasive and potentially harmful data collection going on much closer to home in Yanchep. Have you looked at the new water meters that have been fitted at great expense in Capricorn and other areas? They have an embedded microprocessor and battery to collect water use information
and then when requested upload this information using a low power radio link to the meter reader. The benefit is a whole street’s meters can be read at once, but look at the meter manufacturers web site and you can deduce the data includes time of use as well as volume of water used information. Think about this. What do you do when you get up in the morning? What’s the last thing you do at night? Anybody with
close to real time access to this information will defiantly know that you have gone away for a bit as the toilets will not be flushing and the showers will not be being used. I’m sure the Water Corporation has all the safeguards in place to prevent this data from ‘leaking’ into the hands of the less respectable members of society, hasn’t it? Julian Pearsall, Yanchep.
Chicken treatment
Treating live chickens like rubbish is par for the course in the egg industry. On many egg farms like the one at Forrestdale, hens are crammed into filthy, stinking sheds with thousands of other chickens, only to be killed when they are about two years old. The dumpster provided the birds most space they’ve whole lives and was
probably with the had their likely the
first place many were able to spread their wings, or what was left of their wings. Male chicks are still suffocated to death or ground up alive because they are of no use to the industry. Hens often still have parts of their sensitive beaks sliced off with a hot blade. Anyone who buys or eats eggs is supporting these abuses to chickens. Laura Weyman-Jones, PETA Australia.
Truck dangers On Tuesday 17 May, I needed to go to Gingin, I was towing a trailer. There were road works in progress at the corner of Gingin Brook Road and Indian Ocean Drive. On my return trip I was doing the speed limit, 100km/h, when I looked in my rear view mirror to see a semi trailor (road train) behind me, he was so close, only three or four feet from my trailer. I kept to the speed limit, the truck became very intimidating to the point I was sure he would run into or over the top of me. This was all the way to the road works on Gingin Brook Road. I reduced my speed to 80km/h, as requested by road signs, the truck then became more intimidating and impatient. I then lowered my speed to 60km/h as per road sign at this point the driver of the truck decided to overtake. He must have been travelling at 80km/h at least in a 60km/h zone, at this point I feared for my life, I had to brake hard as he went past me and my trailer went sideways and I was forced off the road. This truck overtook me when I was travelling at 60km/h in the restricted main road works area and a sign saying prepare to stop at the Junction of Gingin Brook road and Indian Ocean Drive. There were vehicles already stopped ahead of me; the truck pulled in front of me and was forced to stop at the speed he was doing, his back trailer moved slightly side ways, I thought he was going to jack-knife with the possibility of hitting workers or the coffee vendor. I pulled over by the coffee vendor, very shaken got out my vehicle had words with the driver of the truck who would not open his window, he just shook his fist at me - I took down the plate number off the back of the prime mover. I reported this to the Lancelin Police as soon as I arrived home, approximately 9.45am. After some investigation, I was told there is no vehicle for that number which is a bit of a worry as the truck may not have been registered. These heavy vehicles should not be allowed to use these small roads, ie: Gingin Brook Road and Indian Ocean Drive as haul roads there are other alternatives. (ie: Brand Highway, KW Road, Bennies Road,) This would alleviate the stress for ordinary vehicle drivers and hopefully the risk of a fatality which mark my words is on the cards. It is within the State Government and the Shire of Gingin power to rectify this problem before this happens; we live in hope as a rate and taxpayer. Name and address supplied.

Rail or Bust deadline looms Yanchep Beach Joint Venture’s (YBJV) 2011 offer of $120 million cash and in-kind offer plus land, was unanimously supported at last week’s City of Wanneroo council meeting through their Advocacy Policy.
Mayor Tracey Roberts said it was a very generous offer and the only ‘offer on the table’, but encouraged the Alkimos Eglinton landowners to continue to work together to achieve the railway to Yanchep by 2020. YBJV senior planner, Mike Allen, told th City of Wanneroo council that the proposed Yanchep City Centre was the second largest in the metropolitan region, after Perth CBD being designated as a Strategic Metropolitan Centre by the WAPC. The Yanchep City Centre has two features - It is an undeveloped greenfield site in single ownership with the Structure Plan being presented to the council for final approval next month before endorsement by WAPC. Mr Allen said: “From my 39 years experience in Perth, I can say the Yanchep City Centre plan is far and away the best example I have seen in Perth of how a transit oriented centre should be developed. “Of course this is helped by its greenfield nature, but Joondalup was a greenfield site too when it started being developed some 40 years ago. “The city centre plan has its heart around the train station, everywhere in the 106 hectare city centre is within 800 metres of the station. “The station will form the focus of the early development of the city centre, in much the same way that many world cities developed with the central core surrounding the station. “In the long term, the planned light rail to Two Rocks will meet the passenger rail service at the station. Without the provision of the rail to Yanchep, the plan for the city centre makes no sense. “Without the provision of rail to Yanchep the northern corridor will fail
to produce the number of jobs needed to make it an importer of workers.
“Without rail, Yanchep will fail; and if Yanchep fails the northern corridor fails with it.” YBJV Chief Executive Officer, Gin Wah Ang, said: “Infrastructure Australia identifed the congestion in the Northern Perth Corridor as high on their priority list of initiatives to address in the near term. “In the north-west corridor the massive Yanchep Beach Joint Venture project aims to do just this, creating a smart satellite City with 55,000 high value local jobs. “This aim aligns with the State Government’s State Priority Occupation List and the Commonwealth Government’s economic development agenda that focus on Asia’s emerging middle class. It is also supported by the State government’s planning blueprint for Perth, Directions 2031 and beyond. “Such development is not guaranteed and will not just happen. “It needs careful planning and the timely provision of key transport infrastructure, key among which for the north-west corridor is the extension of the railway to Yanchep. Federal Member for Pearce, Christian Porter said: “I have already started the work with the City of Wanneroo and developers on possible ways to achieve the best outcome in the quickest time for the rail to Yanchep. “The Turnbull Government’s refocussing on rail projects and value capture investment offers us an opportunity for further rail and road infrastructure for WA in the future. “I am supportive of the City of Wanneroo’s general approach and have been speaking with relevant developers along the rail line regarding how a future approach to a value capture project might be best structured. “Such proposals will not be without their complications and while it is
early stages, I do see that getting a cooperative approach between developers, the City of Wanneroo and State and Federal governments represents the best chance to achieve the best projects in the best time.” State Member for Butler, John Quigley said: “The Labor Party is committed to building the rail line to Yanchep as soon as possible and it forms an important part of WA Labor’s Metronet plan for our city.” Mr Quigley called on the developers at Alkimos and Eglinton to contribute to the construction costs under the ‘Value Capture Model’. Liberal Party candidate for Butler in the March 2017 State election, Linda Aitken, said: “The State Government is preparing the most comprehensive transport plan in more than 40 years. This integrated transport plan will not only provide a long term vision for our rail and bus network, but also our roads, cycle and foot paths. As the Liberal candidate for Butler, I will be fighting to ensure that investment into the northern suburbs continues.”
Rail deadline
Through all the research the Sun City News has conducted over the past few months, if the rail to Yanchep is not fully operational by 2022, at the latest, the ‘value capture’ of this YBJV offer is lost and the northern corridor would go into a depression. After 2022, the major Yanchep developer could easily ‘walk-away’ sub-dividing their land into superlots, sell it off with the region becoming just another ‘sleeping suburb’ with massive traffic problems. To ensure the rail is built to Yanchep before 2022, the State Government needs to stake up their one-third, the City of Wanneroo needs to contribute between $20 and $50 million from their reserves; and ideally the Alkimos and Eglinton landowners need to pitch in between $40 to 80 million as well.

Track labelled deathtrap “I know that riding in WA is a death trap, it’s already taken five lives,” he said. “There’s several ways of fixing this and I just do not understand why it has taken five or more deaths for someone to actually admit that there’s an issue there and go and modify it. I just don’t know what to say. “At the end of the day, all we’re trying to do here is save lives and reduce the high risk of injury.” Mr Elliott has launched a petition calling for urgent changes to stop future deaths.
A Perth father is campaigning for changes to a popular race circuit after five motorcycle deaths in 16 years, which he believes were preventable. Mr Elliott watched in horror as the 24-year-old’s body was flung into a solid barrier. “My heart sank as I saw that, because I knew that he was in serious trouble,” he said. The most recent death at Barbagallo Raceway was just a month ago. Daniel Chadbund, 28, was killed when he was thrown from his bike and struck a tyre wall. “Every time someone is hurt or there is a fatality, it’s like driving a wooden stake through my chest. It’s just needless injury and death,” Mr Elliott said. The racetrack has hosted high-profile national events including the V8 Supercars and the Superbikes, but Mr Elliott, a civil engineer, said it did not meet international safety standards for motorcycle racing. He said he believed the tyre barriers and concrete walls were too close to the track. “When people are badly injured, it’s usually from striking something solid,
either one of the solid concrete walls or one of the solid earth moving tyre walls which are filled with sand and have the same resilience as concrete,” he said Mr Elliott has also raised concerns about the sandy run-off areas next to the track. He said circuits around the world had moved away from sand, which compacts when something hits it, and now used a graded aggregate which was much safer. But Mr Elliott said Barbagallo had failed to keep up. His concerns have been echoed by racing identity Wayne Gardner, who has raced cars and motorbikes around the Barbagallo circuit and said it was antiquated and unsafe. “I’ve never really ridden anywhere else in the world that has tractor tyres as a barrier around a racetrack. So Barbagallo is highly unique and very different and very antiquated to be honest,” he said.
It has been online for 18 months, but gained momentum after Daniel Chadbund’s death and now has more than 2,000 signatures. “I’m not looking to blame anybody, it’s a problem that needs to be fixed, that’s all I’m trying to say,” Mr Elliott said. He acknowledged motorsports were dangerous, but said it did not need to be deadly. “Even the world’s best fall down. Every single Moto GP, there’ll be several falls at incredible speeds. But because they’re on safe circuits, they get up and walk away,” he said. Both Motorcycling WA and the circuit owner, the WA Sporting Car Club, said the track complied with the necessary standards and rejected the claim the circuit was unsafe. The motorcycling group said it was working with the circuit owner to make some minor changes, but insisted there were no serious safety concerns. The Department of Sport and Recreation said negotiations were underway for a second racetrack to be built nearby, designed primarily for motorcycling.
“Anything that is hard and substantial and big is like hitting a concrete wall.”
There is no timeframe for when that is likely to be delivered.
Mr Gardiner said he did not know why the safety concerns had not been addressed.

Redhawks leap back into top five While it could be argued that the conditions assisted the home side the determination and spirit shown by the Redhawks was to be admired and showed what can be done with the correct frame of mind.
Dennis Heaney A convincing 113 point victory on Saturday over cellar dwellers ECU saw the Redhawks regain their place in the top five. They now hold fifth spot with a game clear and a 20 point percentage gap over nearest rivals Safety Bay as all teams approach next weeks bye to celebrate the Foundation Day long weekend. Looking back over the past couple of games we find that in Round 6 the Redhawks travelled down to Safety Bay to meet their chief rival for a finals spot, Safety Bay. With a large number of key players missing through injury and work commitments they faced a tough task and despite kicking the opening goal within 15 seconds of the first bounce, the Redhawks trailed by a couple of goals at the first break. Not much changed in the second term with the home side leading 9.7 (61) to 3.1 (19) at half time. Coach Mick Sutherland had
A special mention should also be made of the loyal supporters who braved the awful football conditions to support the local team.
some stern words about work rate during the break and the third quarter was the Redhawks’ best of the game as they reduced the home side’s advantage marginally by three points. Unfortunately, the final quarter was a repeat of the first half and the home side ran out comfortable winners with a 15.8 (98) to 6.7 (43) victory. Best for Yanchep were the consistent Neal Martin, youngster Benny Vanmaris showed some skill and ability
against bigger and stronger opponents, while 300 gamer Craig Darby, and the backline as a group, continued to give their all for the whole game. The following week, Round 7, saw the Redhawks play host to the unbeaten Swan Districts. In what can only be described as atrocious playing conditions with gale force winds and plenty of rain the Redhawks turned in probably their best performance of the season going down by only 14 points 6.15 (51) to 6.1(37).
Round 9 against winless ECU gave the Redhawks a chance to get back to top five and give their percentage a handy boost. Both of these objectives were achieved when the final siren sounded with the scoreboard reading Yanchep 21.18 (144) to ECU 5.1 (31). After a fairly even opening term when only inaccurate kicking at goal prevented the Redhawks from having a good lead at quarter time. The Redhawks continued to apply the pressure and increased their lead at every break in a performance that augers well for the second half of the season.
Features of the game were the excellent goal kicking performance of Tom Butler with seven majors and good team goal sharing effort with five other players kicking 2 each. Best players: Tom Butler, Jack Ingram, Shane Tweed. Goal scorers: Tom Butler 7, Chad Broughton, Sam Wilton, Jack Ingram, Shane Tweed and Luke Berry all with 2 each. A completion bye this coming weekend enabling players, officials and supporters an opportunity to rest and recover and prepare for what is now a very important clash with Roleystone at Oldham Park on June 11 and I urge as many supporters as possible to get to the game and support the local footy team.
