On the agenda There 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 significant 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 Infill 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 reconfirm their commitment to build a 100 square metre multipurpose 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 Officer can attend the Australian Local Government Association 2016 National General Assembly of Local Government in Canberra from 19 June, to 22 June 2016.

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

Your letters and emails Madness
It 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.
Great catch
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’ for the seawall but the $2 million in emergency funding the state government granted would not cover the optimal solution of offshore 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 offshore breakwaters being cheaper to maintain, they could cause more ongoing erosion problems. Professor Pattiaratchi said natural beaches absorbed and dissipated wave energy like sponges. 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
“When you put a rocky structure there, the energy gets reflected and moved offshore, which creates a more energetic environment just offshore 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 confirm that they will be indemnified 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 affected 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 affected, most of which are owned by retirees. Seabird Progress Association president, Garry Thompson, said while residents were happy something was ‘finally 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
offshore 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.”

Great start to season
with Dennis Heaney Yanchep Red Hawks have begun their season with two convincing victories in the opening rounds of the 2016 WAAFL season.
The opening fixture 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 midfielder, 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 deficit into a useful 14 point lead as they turned for the final term. The final quarter was played at a furious pace with both sides anxious to start the season with a victory, however the Red Hawks through their fitness, discipline and commitment were able to increase the lead marginally at the final siren.
Saints looking good
Coach Mick Sutherland was very satisfied with the team effort 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 first 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 effect as a ferocious Red Hawks put the game beyond reasonable doubt by outscoring Forrestfield by five goals in quarter three to turn for home with a 39 point advantage and despite a three goal burst by Forrestfield early in the final term before the Red Hawks rallied with five quick goals, two being kicked by Tom Butler giving him a match tally of five. Final scores Yanchep 15.8.98 def Forrestfield 9.6.60. Best players were Deon Alderton, Tom Butler, Luke Berry, Bobby Smeeton, Toddy Stafford and Shaun Martin.
This year the Sun City News is sponsoring the Saints Ladies Darts team at Yanchep Sports and Social Club. The ladies play darts every Tuesday night and look great in their new outfits.
