Merit Application

Adelaide Airport Limited (AAL) recently advertised a ‘Merit Application’ in the press to vary the Adelaide Airport Master Plan (2009) to enable an event known as ‘Cavalia’ to be held on the corner of West Beach Road and Tapleys Hill Road at West Beach. Cavalia was an international equestrian and acrobatic show held from October on land behind the service station. The event provided a maximum seating capacity of 2,004 people, with paid car parking for 800 cars.

The main big top tent structure was renowned to be one of the world’s largest touring structures and as a result, major site preparation works were carried out to stabilise and level the road base to support the massive tent structure.

Residents were invited to submit their concerns in writing to the Airport.

I understand a major concern from nearby residents was the high volume of cars entering and leaving the events on the existing busy West Beach Road at peak times and at weekends. A significant number of residents also expressed their concern regarding patrons parking in the nearby local streets instead of paying for parking.

I also understand the objections were considered by Adelaide Airport Ltd and it was decided that the event would proceed, subject to a variety of conditions relating to traffic movements agreed to by Transport SA and Council. Such a major event is no doubt great for our State. I hope the parking restrictions imposed by Council have in some way assisted our residents.

Greening the city

Council is currently undergoing a systematic tree planting program in streets throughout West Torrens.

The species of trees chosen were for their suitability to the local environment.

Airport WardCr Garth Palmer

Consideration for tree removals was based on structure, health, and species’ suitability. Trees were inspected, assessed and identified for removal.

To maintain appearance, Council has staged removals to allow the new trees to be established.

Should you require any further information, contact the Coordinator, Horticulture Services on 8416 6333.

Swimming pool safety inspectionsDue to recent swimming pool deaths, the State’s Coroner has made a recommendation to the Minister for Planning to consider requiring councils to introduce mandatory inspections of all private domestic swimming pools.

It has been suggested that councils carry out inspections on a regular basis, checking for maintenance and safety features.

While the plan appears very good in principle, concerns have been raised over possible costs to pool owners in order to carry out the inspections and ensure compliance with current standards.

Got a faulty streetlight? You can log these faults with SA Power Networks online.

The online map interface helps residents accurately report street light outages. It allows specific street lights to be reported and the type of fault (street light operating during the day or globe is blown etc) can be included. After reporting the outage, you can provide contact details to receive a SMS message when the light is repaired.

This service can be accessed as a link from SA Power Networks’ main website at www.sapowernetworks.com.au.

If you have any street lighting enquiries or would like to request a new street light along local roads, contact Council on 8416 6333 or email [email protected].

During the past few months Council staff have been out and about in the community asking residents what they like about living in West Torrens.

The consultation project, ‘Our Place: Share your story. Shape our future’ has seen people of all ages and from varied backgrounds take time to share their experiences with us and tell us what they like, don’t like and what they’d like to see in the future.

Many of the people who took time to provide feedback agreed that West Torrens was a great place to live because of its close proximity to Adelaide and the beach. Residents also said they were proud of their suburbs and homes and while they understood the need to provide more housing as population figures continued to increase, they wanted to see this undertaken in a ‘balanced’ way.

Why consult?In 2009 Council adopted its ‘Toward 2025 Community Plan’. This plan was developed after extensive consultation with our community and identified a number of aspirations that our residents wanted to see Council work towards in the future.

To check that these aspirations are still relevant, we undertook a review process

and went back to our residents to learn what other concerns may have arisen since 2009.

FindingsMost respondents found the West Torrens community to be friendly, supportive and diverse. On the whole they were happy with services and programs that Council provided; in particular they believed the Hamra Centre Library and the services offered were valuable to local residents.

• Streetscapes:Residentswereproudof their streets and in favour of trees and green streetscapes. There was widespread support for work the Council has already undertaken in this area.

• Agedcare:Therewassomeconcernover how Council could help people to stay in their homes in West Torrens and discussions around housing options, services and facilities to support ageing in the home were received.

• Cycling:ResidentswereimpressedwithCouncil’s cycling infrastructure but asked if more could be done.

• Localbusiness:Feedbackshowedsupport for small businesses and shopping locally. Ideas were put forward

on how to access shops and services easier.

• Families:Residentsmadesuggestionson how to support families with children and appreciated the number of playgrounds available in our city. There was support for more ‘natural’ spaces and school holiday programs were welcomed by parents.

• Heritage:Apopulartopicfordiscussion was how to preserve and celebrate areas of heritage within the Council area, both built and natural environments.

• Other:Othertopicspeoplewerekeento give opinions on included better managing traffic and parking, managing the semi industrial/residential interface and airport noise.

Where to from here?Results from this round of consultation will be used to update the Community Plan and various other plans currently being developed and reviewed by Council. A report will be presented to Council and information will be made available to the public through our website and future issues of Talking Points.

Stories will help shape our future

The West Torrens Library Service is now part of the ‘One Card’ system - and that means our borrowers have access to millions more items.

One card means you can borrow items from libraries other than the West Torrens’ Library Service.

Around 130 libraries across the State have joined the One Card network so library members can borrow and return items wherever they are with their current library card. No longer will you have to be a member of a specific library to access items.

The new service gives members access to online catalogues 24 hours a day, seven days a week, where millions of books, DVDs, CDs and magazines in libraries across South Australia can be reserved. When items become available, they will

From left: Library Team Leader Anne Pascoe, Mayor John Trainer and Manager Community Services Shane Cathcart cut the cake officially launching the new One Card system for West Torrens’ Library Service during October.

be delivered to the Hamra Centre Library, Mobile Library, or other libraries nominated by the borrower for collection.

New collectionsThe West Torrens Library Service is always updating items available for loan. These will be ‘embargoed’ for a period of time to give our members a chance to borrow them first. When their popularity begins to wane, they will then be made available to other One Card libraries.

Priority will also be given to West Torrens Library members in terms of reservations. If an item that belongs to us is borrowed by someone outside of West Torrens it will be because none of our library members are expressing an interest in that particular item at that time.

To find out more about the new One Card system, contact the Hamra Centre Library staff on 8416 6228 or visit them at 1 Brooker Terrace, Hilton. More information can also be found on our website, westtorrens.sa.gov.au.

School groups are welcome to visit the Hamra Centre Library and use our resources.

A number of school groups, kindergartens, child care centres and playgroups already visit our library on a regular basis, however it’s essential that the visits are pre-arranged.

Visits should be booked at least two weeks in advance of the preferred dates or, ideally, at the beginning of the term.

As the library provides a variety of programs to children during the week there are limited time slots available, however visits can be accommodated on:

• TuesdaysandThursdays-from12pm.

• WednesdaysandFridays-from11.45am

• Mondays-from10am.

All students are encouraged to have their own library cards which can be used to check out items, renew items, request items and access library e-resources from school or home.

Tours and information sessionsClasses from local schools can request a tour of the Children’s area and the entire library. These sessions must be booked in advance and visits can be tailor-made to suit the needs of the particular group.

Library staff can provide demonstrations on how to use the self-check machines so students can learn how to borrow, renew and return their own items.

We can also provide a demonstration of the library catalogue, showing students how to:

• searchforanitem

• seeifanitemisavailableforloan

Construction of a new Woolworths and speciality shops in Torrensville is due to begin later this month and will help revitalise the area for local businesses and residents.

The multi-million dollar development, to be built on the current Brickworks’ site (corner Ashwin Parade and South Road, Torrensville) will become a major shopping precinct for the area.

The Brickworks’ site has heritage value to the State as it contains a heritage-listed brickwork chimney and kilns. These features, along with land surrounding this area, will be retained by Council for future development and use.

Developers of the new shopping precinct aim to be open by Christmas 2014.

Greetings everyone. I trust you will enjoy the spring weather as much as I do. It is great to venture out of doors, into the garden or take a walk in the neighbourhood.

The City of West Torrens supports Walking Groups, organised by the Heart Foundation, as a community activity and a way of keeping participants’ mobility at a healthy level. I have been waiting for spring time to start a Walking Group for residents in the Plympton, Kurralta Park, Glandore, Keswick and nearby suburbs.

Walks take place on Saturday mornings at 10am and start from the shops located at 41 Mortimer Street, Kurralta Park (rear of Centro Shopping Centre). The walks are of one hour duration and vary from week to

week, ending from where we started. We want to see as many participants as possible and thus make it a worthwhile community activity.

On a recent visit to Alice Springs I participated in a Heart Foundation walk, along with the city’s Mayor and about 30 residents; some with their dog and some with a pusher. I enjoyed the group activity so much that I was inspired to do the same in my neighbourhood. Let’s do it!

The Heart Foundation advises that being regularly active throughout your life is one of the most effective ways to improve and protect your health and walking is Australia’s favourite way of being physically active.

Walking in a group has even more benefits as it helps people stay motivated, make new friends and feel connected in their local community. Evidence also suggests good social support can help safeguard against heart disease and stroke.

During the past 16 years more than 42,000 Australians have enjoyed the benefits of being part of a Heart Foundation Walking Group.

The Heart Foundation also says that being active on a regular basis is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. Regular physical activity helps to:

• reducetheriskofheartdiseaseandstroke

• manageweight,bloodpressureandcholesterol

• helppreventandcontroldiabetes

• reducetheriskofdevelopingsomecancers

• maintainbonedensity,reduceriskofosteoporosis and fractures

• improvebalanceandcoordination.

Many Heart Foundation Walking Groups include a shorter alternative route for slower, or less fit, walkers. Group organisers are also aware of the importance of weather conditions, especially when it’s extremely hot, cold or humid.

‘Ask not what you can do for your country. Ask what’s for lunch.’

This quote, by famous American film director and screenwriter (George) Orson Welles, sums up the importance that food plays for many of us.

For more than a decade our Council has been providing local residents with a low cost lunch once a week - the Community Meal.

Held at the Plympton Community Centre on Mondays, the Community Meal is available for people aged over 65, younger people with a disability and their carers and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders over 50 years.

The three course meal enables local people to get together once a week and share their stories and friendships while enjoying hearty food.

The Community Meal had humble beginnings when it was first started in the mid 1990s, but its popularity is such that Council is now putting on a second meal each week, aimed towards healthy eating.

The Community Meal is a great service to local residents, with a team of volunteers giving their time every week to help out with serving and cleaning up. As well as enjoying a hearty lunch, participants can take part in games of bingo and there is

always some form of entertainment or a guest speaker.

The second community meal, held every Tuesday, is slightly different to the first in that it provides a healthy two-course lunch with entertainment, information sessions, guest speakers and tips on keeping active. A small fee also applies for this lunch.

To find out more about the Community Meal program, contact Sue Cummins from the Home and Community Care Team at Council - 8416 6264.

Note: At this stage places are available for the Tuesday Community Meal only.

More than just a meal for our community

New app helps keep track of waste

Volunteers are invaluable to the success of Council’s Community Meal program as they serve food each week to local residents.

Need to know what bin gets put out on what week?

Council has developed an iPhone app called ‘West Waste’.

Available from the Apple App Store, West Waste can help residents search for bin collection days and receive notification of when to put bins out. The household waste and recycling calendar and guide is also

available on the app which outlines what should and should not be put into the various kerbside bins.

The West Waste app:

• displaysdaysuntilyourpickup for waste, organics and recycling bins occurs

• cannotifyyouwhenyourpickup will occur

• tellsyouwhatbinsaretobecollected

• worksoniPhone4,4s,5andiPad 2, 3 and 4.

Council is working on an android version of the app which should be available shortly.

Don’t let food scraps go to waste; turn them into compost.

Zero Waste SA data shows that almost 40 per cent of the material in waste bins is food scraps. In landfill, this organic material releases harmful greenhouse gases. However, it could be composted and used in gardens as a soil conditioner, to add rich nutrients to the soil, and make gardens more water efficient.

Don’t let your food scraps go to waste! Put them in your own compost system at home to use in your own garden or put them in your green organics bin so they can be turned into compost.

Local residents should have recently received a fridge magnet ‘All food scraps are good to GO’. This outlines what food can go in your green organics (GO) bin, as well as what you can do with food waste if you don’t wish to put it in your bin.

The general rule is ‘If it didn’t grow, it doesn’t go’, which means that paper products such as tissues, paper towel and even pizza boxes that contain food remains can all go in your green organics bin.

OptionsThere are numerous options for recycling food scraps, tissues, paper towel and other paper and cardboard materials.

Use your organics bin

You can recycle these by:

• placingthemdirectlyinthebin.

• wrappingtheminnewspaperbeforeplacingtheminthe bin, or

• placingtheminakitchencaddylinedwithacompostable bag, which, when full, is placed in the bin.

Compost or worm farm at home

You can also recycle these items at home by placing them in a compost bin, worm farm or other home composting system.

Rebates available

Council supports residents to recycle food waste by:

• Providingakitchencaddyandrollofcompostablebags (available from Council) or a rebate of up to $20 on a kitchen caddy purchased privately. Replacement rolls of 75 compostable bags can be purchased from Council for $5.

• Offeringarebateof50percent(upto$50)ona new compost bin, worm farm or other home compost system, purchased privately or through Council.

To claim a rebate, use the voucher in the ‘Four easy ways to recycle your food scraps’ booklet available from Council. The voucher offer is limited to one per household.

Fridge magnets outlining what can go in your green organics bin have been delivered to households.

FootpathsCouncil maintains 626 kilometres of footpaths. An audit was undertaken in 2011 which has provided us with valuable information to plan and schedule upgrades and new works.We have developed an ‘Installation of New Footpath Priority System’ which prioritises the most pressing areas where new footpaths are needed. Priority footpaths are considered to be on local, collector and arterial roads that do not have a footpath

on either side and local roads where a footpath is required on both sides of the road due to high pedestrian demand (ie bus routes, schools, shopping centres).UndertheDisabilityDiscriminationAct(DDA), Council must provide a footpath on at least one side of all roads for the safety and accessibility of pedestrians. Local and major collector roads which carry more than 3,000 vehicles per day should have a footpath on both sides.The footpath schedule of works for this year is broken down as follows.Footpath renewal: $356,013: This includes work to a number of streets in Thebarton, Richmond, Mile End South, North Plympton, Keswick, Mile End, Marleston and Plympton.New footpath construction: $284,675: New footpaths will be built along various roads in various suburbs including North Plympton, West Beach, Lockleys and Camden Park. Footpath remediation: $200,000: Upgradingoffootpathsalongarterialroadsacross the city.

Clear vegetation before summer

A profile of our community online

Join a book club and share ideas

Owners of vacant land are encouraged to act now and clear any weeds or vegetation in advance of the fire danger season.

People who live on a property where high grass or weeds exist should take prompt action to remove or clear the undergrowth as it could pose a serious fire threat to the premises and the properties of adjoining neighbours. There are severe penalties for those who fail to comply with a notice to clear undergrowth under the Fire and Emergency Services Act, 2005.

Any enquiries should be directed to Council’s compliance staff on 8416 6333.

Residents and business operators of West Torrens can access a host of information about the region and its residents through Council’s ‘Community Profile’ section on the web.

‘Community Profile’ is designed to inform community groups, investors, businesses, students and the general public about the local area.

Council commissioned id consulting to develop Community Profile, which incorporated profile.id, an internet-based application that provides census information about our local area.

To find out more, log onto Council’s website www.westtorrens.sa.gov.au/profile.

With the festive season just around the corner, pet owners need to be mindful that loud noises such as fireworks can cause distress in their pet.

Pets do not understand that the loud noises they are hearing are not going to hurt them. They think they are in danger and will often try to escape.

What should you do if you know an event involving fireworks is going to occur?

Consider how your pet will feel. Ensure that you are nearby to comfort your pet when the noise is occurring. If you cannot be at

home, find someone who can stay with your pet.

What should you do if you are the organiser of a fireworks event?

Let neighbours (up to one full street away) know you will be conducting an event to give them an opportunity to make other arrangements for their pets. Let them know what the expected duration of the noise will be.

What can you do to protect your dog or cat from fireworks noise?

During fireworks events, keep your pet with you indoors and comfort them if they

appear distressed. If you know your pet is likely to become distressed, ask your vet to prescribe a mild sedative.

It may be possible to desensitise your pet to the noise by playing a recording with noise of fireworks. This should be done in a controlled environment and it will help teach your pet to cope with the noise. You can also turn up the volume on the radio or TV to counteract the noise from the fireworks.

For further information or enquiries, contact Council’s animal management officers on 8416 6333, email [email protected].

Keep your pets safe this festive season, especially around fireworks.

For the past few months the West Torrens’ OPAL team has been educating our local community about the importance of having a healthy breakfast.

In late October they organised a weeklong ‘West Torrens Biggest Breakfast’ event, which saw schools, sporting clubs, workplaces, churches and child care centres show their support by staging individual healthy breakfast events.

To help reiterate the message to local businesses, Council, OPAL and the Inner West Business Enterprise Centre (IWBEC) held the ‘West Torrens Business Breakfast’ at Thebarton Community Centre, where more than 120 business representatives came together to learn about easy, healthy breakfast options.

Masterchef favourite Poh Ling Yeow and dietitian and former netballer Natalie von Bertouch planned and prepared breakfast for the local business community and provided a range of tips around healthy eating. They outlined the valuable role that local businesses play in the wider community by supporting employees and families in healthy lifestyle choices.

IWBEC hosts a Healthy Workers, Healthy Futures Program which helps educate local business operators about the importance of good nutrition and how this can impact on their workforce.

“Statistics show that healthy workers are three times more productive and take less sick leave, so it’s really in the best interests of business owners to support their employees with advice on healthy lifestyles,” IWBEC Healthy Workers Advisor Sarah Lindblom said.

“Healthy businesses are productive businesses.”

FlindersUniversity,throughtheHealthyEatingLocalPolicies and Programs (HELPP), has developed a ‘quick catering guide’, which was distributed to all attendees at the breakfast. To find out more about this program contact Sarah at IWBEC on 8159 7800.

Around 100 local business representatives enjoyed the ‘Biggest Business Breakfast’ hosted at Thebarton Community Centre.

Breakfast around the communityAs well as the Biggest Business Breakfast, OPAL gave the community a chance to meet PohandNatattheAdelaideWestUnitingChurch Annual Spring Fair, where the duo combined their skills to showcase several quick, easy and healthy breakfast ideas.

While Poh whipped up dishes like Bircher Muesli with yoghurt, crispy ham and egg cups and a bean, tomato and ham dish with poached eggs, Nat shared her knowledge as a dietitian to talk about the nutritional value of Poh’s recipes. (Recipes are available for download on the Council website - westtorrens.sa.gov.au - search for OPAL.)

Poh and Nat also ran a workshop for cooks in child care sites, school canteen staff and directors of Out of School Hour Care (OSHC) to see how the OPAL Program could best assist staff in these crucial services to provide healthy, nutritious food over the next three years.

For more information about the healthy breakfast program, contact Vanessa, Nat or Terri from the OPAL team on 8293 7680 or email [email protected].

To juice or not to juice?Many people tend to provide fruit juice when they cater or shop for the family thinking they are providing a healthy option. While all natural fruit juice is just that, all natural, it is still high in sugar and lacks the fibre that you find in whole fruit.

A healthier alternative is to drink water and eat two pieces of fresh fruit throughout the day. This reduces sugar intake, increases fibre intake and is much more filling.

Did you know:

• Drinkinga500mlbottleof100percentfruit juice is the equivalent of eating five apples or oranges.
