Fresh plea over food fight Chanel Zagon

Traders face $500 fine if caught selling wares without a permit

MARIBYRNONG Council is facing a growing backlash from the community and within its own ranks over forcing popular street grocers out of Footscray under a crackdown described as ripping the “heart and soul” out of the area.

The Leader reported online last week that the council had come under fire for cracking down on traders (pictured right) who sell items on any council-owned footpath, road or land without its permission. The dozens of grocers,

who line Leeds St between the Barkly and Byron streets, will now cop a $500 fine, with their goods impounded if caught out. Street traders were made aware

of the ban, effective as of June 1, through a street notice board directed at itinerant traders, which states council officers will patrol the Footscray CBD daily to ensure compliance. The tough stance has sparked outrage on social media, with residents saying the council are targeting elderly people trying

to make a living. Councillor Mia McGregor said her colleagues were not made aware of the decision and she had raised the issue with the chief executive.“All the operational things

(within the big picture policy that council sets) are the domain of officers. Unfortunately those officers aren’t always best placed to determine if a decision might be significant in impacting on the culture of the organisation, is out of synch with community values or is

politically sensitive,” she posted on Facebook.

Produce buyer Mark Chu said the culturally-diverse street market was the heart and soul of the Footscray community. But Maribyrnong planning

services director Nigel Higgins said the council’s response resulted from concerns raised by traders over the blocking of footpaths and was a breach of local laws. Itinerant trader permits costs

about $31.

The court heard the mother of four, soon to be five, children would use Gumtree and Facebook to rip people off. She would respond to people looking to buy mobile phones, and set up a sale.In June last year she did a deal with a Gumtree buyer to sell ‘her’ iPhone for $430, providing bank details to the purchaser. It was never sent, with a fake tracking number given and repeated follow-

up refund requests unanswered.Then in August she did a similarscam, this time on Facebook arranging to meet in person to hand over a phone after a $360 payment had been sent. She never turned up.And in January she cheated another potential buyer, who didn’t get the phone they bought for $370 on Facebook.Police got involved and Baddack

was arrested. Her defence lawyer said she committed the crimes because as a mother four she needed the money for her family.Baddack told the court she expected to give birth within a few weeks and was in a stable relationship with a war veteran. The court heard she has a very long list of priors for dishonesty crimes. Magistrate Luisa Bazzani said Baddack “was an old hand at

She captures victims unawares and abuses mediums like Gumtree.”Baddack was convicted and given a $2000 fine.

Sparks fly over CFABrittany Shanahan Government, council trade barbs on building Plenty stationCFA’s request for an in-principle agreement to progress with its planning application.

The request was submitted in August 2017 and Ms Green said “now, some nine months on, nothing has progressed”.Ms Green told the Diamond Valley Leader a “heads of agreement” had been signed and the State Government would move to purchase the land.

“I raised it in parliament because

I wanted to kick (the project) along a bit,” she said. The new station will be built at the corner of Butlers Rd and Memorial Ave, Plenty, because the brigade needed more space to fit equipment that allows them to train for cliff rescues, Ms Green said.

Mayor Peter Clarke slammed MsGreen’s comments and said she was “looking for excuses for the government’s failure to deliver this

project in her term of office”. Cr Clarke said the council did not have a fully completed planning permit application to advertise and did not have a formal offer to purchase the land. “I urge residents to have a good hard look at this application which would have a dramatic impact on the environment,” he said.“Equally, it’s critically importantwe get a fire station in Plenty built.”Dozens of mature trees will be

lost as part of the project, Cr Clarke said. Cr Grant Brooker contacted theLeader to say Ms Green’s comments were an “obvious attempt to direct all attention away from her own responsibility” and he was disappointed at her actions. The Labor Government promised $1.4 million to rebuild the Plenty CFA station during the 2014 state election campaign and another $500,000 was allocated in the following year’s budget, as reported by the Leader.

Friends and family have rallied to backa huge campaign to support the seriously ill mother-of-two.Dr Richmond, who lives in Frankston South and works at Mornington and Pearcedale, is undergoing chemotherapy after being diagnosed with peritoneal mesothelioma — a rare type of cancer caused by asbestos.

It is believed Dr Richmond ingested anasbestos fibre from the clothing of her father, who worked in manufacturing when she was a child, or while working at a UK hospital — partly built with the material — when she was a trainee doctor.The 43-year-old’s diagnosis came aftershe suffered extreme abdominal pain and bloating.Surgeons moved swiftly to remove anyorgans that could have cancerous tumours — her uterus, ovaries and appendix.

“I thought how lucky I am that it (the surgery) was so quick. I could not be in better care,” she said.The GP, mother to Lauren, 6, and Finn,9, and wife to Brett, said she had been deeply touched by the support from residents, neighbours and the Derinya Primary School community.

“I wish this never happened, but I know

I am loved and I know people care and that’s really special,” she said.The GP said she ultimately wanted to get back to her job of looking after other people.“I want to get back to work and I wantto get back to helping people.”But Dr Richmond’s patients are sendingmessages indicating they want to look after her.

“It’s like ‘you looked after us and now we’ll look after you’. You don’t realise how much people care until something like thishappens.”A neighbour, Mel Smith, said the GP was a dear friend and doctor to many in the region.

“Kate has an amazing community around her and everyone wants to help,” Ms Smith said.Ms Smith is organising a fundraising comedy event on August 11.“It’s fitting that it’s a comedy night given that Kate always makes us all laugh, whatever the circumstances.”Supporters have launched a gofundmeto raise $66,000 — $60,000 for immunotherapy treatment and $6000 for overseas testing. Check the gofundme.com page for details about Ms Smith’s fundraising event.

heroBurglar caught in act after brave girl hides, calls 000

A COURAGEOUS 10-year-old girl’s call to 000 has revealed her terror as she hid in a cupboard while home alone as a crazed burglar ransacked the house. Kate Luong’s family was out forhalf an hour getting dinner when a man used a brick to smash the window of their Springvale property.

The brave St Anthony’s Primarystudent locked herself in a bedroom wardrobe about 5.30pm on May 31, and stayed on the phone with the emergency call operator as police arrived within minutes to arrest the armed crook.On the call, Kate can be heard whispering: “They’re in the house, they broke the glass door. Please come quick.”Speaking to the Leader last week,Kate said she was scared and “crying a lot”, but was still able to provide crucial information to the operator.

“I heard noises coming from thebackyard, I picked up the curtain

and I saw a man,” she said. “I went to lock the door and then I went and hid in the closet.”Her proud 19-year-old brother Mike said a combination of their family’s teaching and crime TV shows had taught Kate what to do during the terrifying incident.He said they had lived in their Buckingham Ave property for about a year, but were planning to move as a result of the break-in.Dandenong crime investigationunit detective Senior Constable Steve Woodhouse said it was Kate’s quick thinking and bravery that lead to the quick arrest of the offender. “Calling 000 in an emergency is such an important lesson to teach children. It’s a lesson that can never begin too early,” he said.

Emergency Services Telecommunications Authority spokesman Tim Madigan said Kate’s ability to stay calm in a situation that would rattle most adults was “a shining example of how to call 000 in an emergency”.A 46-year-old Springvale man has been remanded to face court later this month.

Parking ‘cash grab’ Suzanne Hewitt Anger over plan to roll-out meters at Macleod shopping stripA QUAINT suburban shopping strip could be turned into a ghost town if Banyule Council line the streets with paid parking meters, traders have warned.

Business owners fear the move could kill business at the Macleod Shopping Village if shoppers were forced to pay for parking. The Macleod Traders’ Association was due to meet council officers today (Tuesday) to

oppose the plan, while the Sustainable Macleod group has started a petition against it.The council is looking at putting290 paid parking meters for a maximum of $3 per day around train stations throughout Banyule.Banyule United Residents’ Group spokeswoman, Sonja Terpstra, said it was a “cash grab” to add to the council’s fee coffers to offset debts but not improve

services. Commuters would just move to unmetered residential streets, she said. Macleod Village Shopping Centre spokeswoman Heidi Crundwell believes the plan could make residents think twice about shopping locally. Sustainable Macleod spokeswoman, Robin Gale-Baker, said it would discourage people from driving to the station to use public transport.

Banyule Mayor Mark Di Pasquale said the proposal for paid parking resulted from the council “receiving several concerns over time about the lack of parking around the Macleod shops and train station including heavy use of all-day parking areas”.The council will consult tradersand residents about the proposal next month.

Lights, cameras, no actionJosh Fagan Bollards and lighting for Boronia station but CCTV still faultyBRIGHT lights and bollards will be installed around trouble-prone Boronia railway station — but traders say they are unhappy with ongoing delays to replacing broken CCTV cameras.

A $420,000 revamp of the streetsaround the station will include better lighting as part of a Federal Government investment in making the precinct safer for pedestrians.Knox Council contractors will

carry out the works which will take two years to complete.However, the replacement of faulty CCTV cameras has been delayed and won’t be finished until the end of July. The four cameras, based around the station and Dorset Rd, are the only cameras the council is responsible for maintaining and have not been working since early 2017.

The cameras were installed in

2012 but councillor Peter Lockwood said they “got a bit old and broke down” last year.The council got $56,000 from theState Government for new cameras and was due to have them switched on by May/June but recently revised that timeline. The council did not respond to questions about the delay before Leader’s deadline.Two Cats Espresso cafe co-ownerAndrew Ho said there were

ongoing issues with people drinking and littering in Lupton Way, next to the station.“If there’s lighting and if they clean up the area a bit more it would definitely change the atmosphere,” he said.“It’s definitely a safety issue nothaving CCTV cameras, if anything happens there is no evidence.”Free Choice Tobacconist DorsetRd owner Hao Han said more

CCTV cameras were needed.“There are a lot of drunks, youngpeople gathering, people shouting during the evening. Lights and having extra CCTV would be a goodhelp with that.”Knox Mayor John Mortimore said the lighting would improve perceptions of safety.The federal investment will addbollards near the station entrance and about 70 lights around the station and nearby Orchid and Erica avenues.

larger. Councillors have vowed to find other ways to increase development in these areas after being turned down by Planning Minister Richard Wynne.The process took more than fiveyears and during that time Mr Wynne appointed an independent committee to review the proposal and make recommendations.However after the panel made itsrecommendations, the minister

decided to reject the proposal.In a letter to the council, Mr Wynne said he refused the changes because of the bushfire risk in these areas. “I recommend the council reviewits housing strategy to identify the need for additional housing in specific towns or areas better suited for growth, rather than a broad application across most of your townships,” the letter said.

But Cr Fiona McAllister said shewas disappointed after all the hard work that had gone into the proposal.“We followed the due and appropriate process yet we sit here, five or six years into this journey, having been told by the minister that asked us to go down this path, that he doesn’t accept the recommendation,” Cr McAllister said.But Tim George from Thomas &

George Licensed Surveyors said the entire process had been a “bureaucratic stuff up” between the council and State Government.He also said the State Government had not provided essential information on planned changes to the Bushfire Management Overlay prior to the report being submitted.Mr George said he represented more than 50 clients who could no longer subdivide their Yarra Ranges properties.

HOMEOWNERS in a suburban Bulleen street are fighting to save a park they fear will be bulldozed as part of the North East Link project.Spokesman John Smith last week presented a petition to the project authority to save Koonung Creek Trail, which sits between the Eastern Freeway and Estelle St homes. Park users are worried it will make way for widening of the Eastern Freeway.Mr Smith, who has lived in Estelle St for 32 years, said about 90 per cent of homeowners had signed his petition which he had taken to Roads Minister Luke Donnellan and the North East Link Authority.“We’re asking the North East Link to reconsider their alignment because at the moment it appears we stand to lose our small park,” he said. “There’s huge parkland on the North Balwyn side so I would think they should be able to keep our 25m of parkland and move the road across the other side.”He said the park was popular with homeowners. “People walk their dogs, practise their soccer and

ball skills, all sorts of things. We’ve got a mixture of families and older residents who’ve been here about 45 years,” Mr Smith said.North East Link Authority chiefexecutive Duncan Elliott said authority staff had met Estelle St homeowners and would keep them updated on the project’s progress.“Koonung Creek Trail is likely tobe realigned and once work is finished, the path will be upgraded,” he said.

“It’s expected we will need to move (the park) a little, so we are working on exactly how the whole path will be changed and upgraded at the moment. Across the project we will be building new paths and upgrading existing paths.”The formal land acquisition process cannot start until after the environmental effects and planning approvals process, which is expected to happen in late 2019.Mr Donnellan said the Government knew “how important open space is for people”.“Which is why plans are being refined across the project to minimise impact from construction as much as possible,” he said.

Escape to better lifeChanel Zagon

Refugees making positive impact to the west

HUNDREDS of asylum seekers who have narrowly escaped death among life-threatening waters are living, working and studying in Melbourne’s west. Speaking on the eve of this week’s RefugeeWeek, Victoria University student Ghanieh Daghagheleh said she fled Iran in 2013, jumping on a boat bound for Australian shores with her parents and three younger siblings. Only 17 at the time, Ms Daghagheleh did not know if she or her family would make it to Australia alive. But like many others, the Daghagheleh family faced the stark predicament — stay and risk death in Iran or flee and run the risk of death at sea for a chance at a better life. “It was very scary and the most challengingexperience of my life,” Ms Daghagheleh said. “There was a 50-50 chance of getting thereor drowning and dying in the ocean.“But we had to leave; it wasn’t safe in Irananymore.”

It took six months for the family to arrive safely in Australia. This period was spent in detention centresacross Indonesia, Christmas Island and Darwin.

Days in detention were mainly filled with English classes. Detainees had no access to phones and computer use was limited to just 30 minutes a day in an internet room.

It was in an art class where Ms Daghaghelehexperienced racism for the first time.

“I remember drawing a heart and writing ‘Ilove AUS’ inside … the teacher said ‘you’re not an Australian citizen, you shouldn’t have drawn that’,” she said.According to Refugee Council statistics, 1389 people were in Australian detention facilities on March 31 of this year. Figures show 335 of those people were asylum seekers who arrived by boat. The average time spent in detention centres was 826 days.

Victoria University Polytechnic has 113 students with an asylum seeker background — the highest number studying at any tertiary institution in the state. Vocational education vice-president GrantDreher said the university was proud to support students from diverse backgrounds achieve their career goals.

“Education and training provide opportunities for asylum seekers to engage with their community, contribute to the economic growth of Australia, communicate better and begin to rebuild their lives,” he said. Ms Daghagheleh began her Australian education on a scholarship at Victoria University in Footscray.

She is thriving in a Bachelor Nursing/Midwifery course, with hopes of entering a career in medicine in the future. The 22-year-old says she couldn’t be happier. “The university is a great support, it is definitely a place to grow,” she said.Refugee week runs from June 17 to 23. World Refugee Day is on June 20.

Horse club to be scratched

Group unhitched by redevelopment plans

A LONG-STANDING horse club could be headed for the knackery after being turfed out of Croydon South’s Eastfield Park under Maroondah Council’s redevelopment plans.

Plans released by the council, which are open to public consultation, show the Croydon Light Harness Club’s headquarters, where it has been based for 60 years, are to be bulldozed and “returned to parkland”.

The council also wants to cover the club’s trotting track and an inner oval with two new floodlit soccer pitches, a second football oval, a skatepark, four cricket nets and an 80-space carpark.The plans appear to have received the thumbs down from graffiti vandals, who scribbled the words ‘Save Eastfield Park’ on the back of the club’s horse stables on Tuesday.

Club committee member John McGillivray said the group, which has more than 30 members and 20 horses based at the park, was “devastated” by the plans.

He was unfazed by the graffiti, saying it was “the best thing that’s ever happened” as it raised awareness of the club’s plight. “I don’t disagree with the councilbuilding new soccer and football facilities, but we do disagree with them throwing us out,’’ he said. “There has to be other ways to include us and keep us here. We have been here for 60 years and we want to stay.”The club has started

campaigning to win the support of neighbours and will petition the council against its plans.In a statement, Mayor Nora Lamont confirmed the council was “working with the Croydon Light Harness Club to identify relocation opportunities”.

“While council understands theconcerns of the members of the club, council must also consider the broader needs of the community, and determine what is the best use for this large and very much under-utilised space,” she said.The council has two further public consultation sessions planned — including one this Saturday, June 23, at Eastfield Park’s Benson Oval from 1pm.

Jail time for uni predatorPaul Shapiro Sex offender found guilty of grooming teenagers onlineA FORMER Deakin University employee who used Instagram to indecently communicate with a 13-year-old boy will spend less than a year behind bars.

David Botting also pleaded guiltyto procuring a person believed to be under 16 for sexual activity, after messaging an undercover police officer, who he believed was a 14-year-old boy, on Facebook.He was convicted and sentenced

in the Victorian County Court after pleading guilty to the two charges. Botting met a 12-year-old boy who was on a school excursion to the university’s Burwood campus in 2016. Botting, who worked full-time at the university as a technical director and manager of the Deakin Broadcast Studio but has since resigned, gave the victim his Instagram username.The pair messaged each other for

almost two months after becoming Instagram friends.The court heard last month Botting drove the conversation towards that of a “sexual nature”.The messages ended when the victim’s mother contacted police.On March 25, 2017, an undercover police officer posing as 14-year-old boy sent Botting a friend request via Facebook, which he accepted.

Botting arranged to meet who hebelieved was a 14-year-old boy at Hawthorn McDonald’s. He was arrested but denied he had gone to the McDonald’s to engage in sexual activity — telling police he felt he was “ripped off” and “set up”.

He later admitted to messaging his victim with “one of those conversations I knew I shouldn’t have had at the time”.

The boy outlined in his victim impact statement how the offending made him feel “embarrassed” while hoping “it would go away”.Judge Susan Pullen described Botting’s offending as “most serious and disturbing”.Botting was convicted and sentenced to 24 months’ jail, 15 of them wholly suspended. He will undertake a Recognisance Release Order and possibly attend a sex offender program on his release.

Candidate’s silence deafeningRachel Clayton

State Liberals impose strict rules on when aspiring MP can speak to the mediaTHE Liberal candidate for Essendon in

this year’s state election can’t even say what suburb he lives in.Self-employed lawyer Gino Potenza

has avoided talking to the Leader on multiple occasions, saying all questions and interviews needed to be checked and signed off by the Liberals’ state campaign team.Mr Potenza was approached three

times by the Leader during a rally at the Buckley St level crossing on June 3 but each time said he was “too busy” to answer questions.There was no reply to an email asking

what suburb Mr Potenza lived in and what he wanted to change in Essendon. When he was phoned 48 hours later, he said he was awaiting approval from the campaign team.“I’ve sent your request to answer the

questions to 104 (Liberal Victoria headquarters) and I’m waiting for them to come back to me,” Mr Potenza said.

When asked why he couldn’t answer questions directly, he said: “The problem is … there are protocols observed by candidates. I’m a new candidate and I have a certain protocol ascribed to me

and that includes that if I’ve got an interview I’ve got to seek permission. I’m happy to do that.”When asked if he was being gagged by

the party, Mr Potenza said before abruptly hanging up: “No, no, no one gags a lawyer. But there’s protocols that’s all and I’ve just got to respect them. I’m not going to (answer questions).”Essendon state Labor MP Danny

Pearson said “people who stand for an electorate should make themselves available to answer questions”.

“People can rightly ask questions andif Mr Potenza is not willing to answer questions, what’s he got to hide?” he said.

Monash University senior political lecturer Dr Nick Economou said swinging voters needed to be swayed by the appearance of an organised and disciplined Liberal Party. “What you don’t want is less important candidates doing something that might upset the party’s campaign,” he said.State Opposition leader Matthew Guy

would not answer questions on why candidates sought permission to speak to the media. Premier Daniel Andrews declined to comment.Editorial opinion, Page 2

Updated: July 2018FRIGHTENED residents are calling for action on Moorabbin Airport after a fiery, fatal plane crash in their suburban street — the second incident in eight years.The single-engine plane just missed homes in Scarlett St, Mordialloc, when it came down about 5pm on Friday. The sole occupant, a 50-year-oldpilot from Mt Martha, was killed.The Cessna 172 crashed in front

’It’s just too dangerous’Lucy Callander and staff writers Residents say airport must go after another firey crashof Vlad Wassileff’s house, who was home with his wife, 11-month-old daughter and mother in law. “It was like a bomb went off,” hesaid. “We’re all very lucky.” Sonia Anioniou, who has lived inScarlet St for 40 years, said it was time for the airport to go.

“We are so sick of worrying about a plane coming down, it’s just too dangerous,” she said.Brian Colbey said the possibility

of a crash was in the back of his mind “every time (planes) fly over”. “There are a lot of beautiful young families in this street and many would now be thinking about moving,” he said.David Trotter who lives just metres from the crash site said the area had changed dramatically since the airport was built and the number of beginner pilots training at the airport should be restricted.

“When they built that airport, there were no homes here, the suburb of Dingley didn’t exist,” he said. Wall Bk, who recently sold his Scarlett St house, posted on Facebook that it was time to move the airport. “I hope (this) tragic accident will be good reason to be able to relocate the airport to somewhere else away from the residential area,” he posted.The crash was the second in the

area this decade with two people walking from the wreckage of their Cessna after it plummeted into the backyard of a house on the corner of Scarlett St and Lower Dandenong Rd on August 7, 2010. Early that year a 72-year-old pilotwas trying to land at Moorabbin when the plane clipped trees and landed at nearby Capital Golf Club. And a trainee pilot died in August 2008, when his plane crashed, narrowly missing Cheltenham East Primary School.

Formal living and dining areas are on the ground floor. These are followed by the home’s

main hub, where a family and meals area joins the kitchen, and provides a view across the pool outdoors.

And while the solar and gas heated pool will be the star of the backyard in summer, a spa, pavilion, lawn and greenery all help to make it a peaceful space to entertain in any season.The home’s upper level, where a

cathedral ceiling, large windows, balcony and a dual built-in desk make it a light and bright space to read or relax.The main bedroom also benefits

from a lofty ceiling, and has an ensuite and walk-in wardrobe.

Three further bedrooms have built-in wardrobes, and the stylish main bathroom features new tapware.

Other highlights include a rendered facade, Bosch appliances for the kitchen, central heating and reverse-cycle airconditioning, 3KW solar panels, and 6000L of water storage.There’s also a double garage.

The home is in a cul-de-sac in theFernhill Estate, close to parks, reserves and golf clubs.Direct freeway access makes for

an easy commute, while proximity to sought-after schools in both Keysborough and Mentone is another bonus.

Updated: July 2018A NASTY fall from her bicycle could have been much worse for Erica if not for her helmet and a group of determined high school students.

When Mercy College Year 7 student Natasha saw the Coburg High School student crash her bike on Renown St while riding home on May 15, she asked her bus driver to stop so she could help.

DREAM HOMEPAGE 15

Kind kids to rescueJosh Barnes Students stop bus to come to the aid of girl in bicycle crash“The bus driver said the other bus behind him could deal with it and we told him no and demanded to get off,” Natasha said.

Erica, 14, was regaining consciousness when Natasha and fellow students Angelica, Amal, Doha, Dounia and Rayan exited the bus, approached her to help and called an ambulance.Erica, who said she doesn’t

remember falling from the bike and “couldn’t register any faces”, was comforted by the girls, who phoned her parents immediately to let them know of the incident.“Dounia spoke to me and she wasjust so calm and collected … for them to stop the bus and get off and know what to do, they did a brilliant job of it,” Erica’s mother, Karin Sitte-Meagher said.

“I was really confused,” Erica said. “I was more worried about making it to circus training and that my phone had smashed.”While she suffered a fractured right wrist and will be out of circus training for a while, a distinctive dent in her helmet where her right temple would rest showed how close she came to serious damage.“You should wear a helmet every

time, you don’t know when you will fall,” Ms Sitte-Meagher said.“I say to my kids, ‘You’ve only got one head — protect it’.”Erica has now been reunited with her rescuers twice and is full of admiration for their quick reactions and for defying the bus driver’s initial reaction.“I just have a lot of respect for thegirls … it’s easy to say it’s not my problem and to keep going,” she said.

THE cyclist tragically killed in a Queen’s Birthday weekend collision on Moorooduc Highway is being remembered as a “good man” devoted to his family.Robert Herbert, 61, from Frankston South, was 10km from home when he was struck by a rubbish truck and flung from his bike near the Bungower Rd intersection just after 10.30am.Family have told the Leader he was a hard worker with an eye for detail and a much loved physical education and VCAL teacher at Mornington Secondary College.A life member of Coburg FootballClub, Mr Herbert played 129 games in the VFA between 1976 and 1983, kicking 242 goals and figuring in the 1979 premiership.

He then moved to Springvale Football Club and taught at Springvale Secondary College before he and his wife Jenny settled down to have two children, sons Craig and Leigh. “He was just a good man, he worked really hard around the house, he worked really hard at his job and he loved to try and stay fit,” Mrs Herbert said. “He’ll be sorely missed.”The proud grandfather of two girls, aged three and nine months, was a passionate junior footy coach at Frankston Dolphins and helped

out at the local swimming club and school camps. “He was always coaching one of our teams, umpiring or doing extra stuff for the kids at school,” son Craig said. “I’ve never seen anyone work as hard as he did.”Mr Herbert’s passion for riding started about three years ago after a knee operation. “He loved it, fitness and exercise was important to him,” Mrs Herbert said.The cause of the accident remains under investigation. The driver, a 53-year-old Noble Park man, has been helping police.Frankston Acting Senior Sergeant Patrick Hayes said it was “a tragic set of circumstances”.The funeral will be at 2pm on Thursday at Tobin Brothers in Frankston. Witnesses are urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Course out of the roughRichard Pearce

La Trobe Uni relents and offers golf club new five-year lease

STRATHALLAN Golf Club members have holed out on the 18th, securing a five-year lease for their golf course just months before they would have been kicked off the land.

La Trobe University announcedthe spectacular policy reversal on Friday, allowing the club to remain on the course they’ve used since 1957.

Club president Peter Roberts said members were grateful for the university’s change of heart and wanted to thank everyone who offered support, including Bundoora state Labor MP Colin

Brooks and Darebin Council.But Mr Roberts said despite thedeal, the club was still focused on securing the land for the long term.

“At the end of the day, although

five years is a good period, we’d be looking in the short to medium term to put this matter to bed,” Mr Roberts said.He described the university’s

decision as a “significant shift” from its previous “hard ball” tactics but said the five-year term still left negotiations open. “It just means in three or four

years’ time whoever is at the club

or the university will be going through the same thing again,” he said.

University spokesman Tim Mitchell said the offer would be based on the existing rental payment and also include conditions to manage waterways

and other natural bushlands on the site. The university had originally chosen not to renew the lease in

2015 and the club launched a campaign to save the 60-year-old course.

Strathallan Golf Course was founded in 1957 on land formerly used by the Larundel mental asylum.

La Trobe University bought theland from the Urban Land Authority in 1996 and had leased it

to the golf club since then.Darebin Council campaigned tokeep the course on site.

Let there be lightSamantha Dick Call on council to help refugees integrate through soccerrefugees arrived in Hume and had trouble adjusting. “Some of the youth have problems with settlement, especially the ones who were previously living in villages,” he said. “As a refugee, you lose everything; you lose your past, your present and maybe even your future.

“It’s hard for them to just get involved in a community straight

away, so we decided one way to help was through the soccer club.”Since its inception six months ago, the first soccer team made up of refugees, the Upfield Thirds, has attracted about 25 players.“We were undefeated until roundeight of this season,” Mr Pito said. “But we all know that for every team or every club to survive, they need sponsors.”

The Upfield Thirds train two days a week on a poorly lit pitch at Gibb Reserve, Dallas. “One side is lit, but the other side is not,” Mr Pito said. “It gets dark at 5pm in winter and we only have half a pitch to work with.”Club secretary Wally Hanna, who came to Australia from Iraq in 1997, submitted a budget proposal at a recent Hume Council meeting.

He hopes to secure two 150 lux light towers, valued about $50,000 each.The council’s corporate servicesdirector Daryl Whitfort said funding had been “provisionally allocated in 2019/20, as part of council’s four-year capital works program, for lighting at Gibb Reserve” but was subject to the next budget process.The club is keen to hear from potential sponsors.

Updated: July 2018‘We’re an easy target’Richard Pearce Victims of attempted robbery concerned offenders will return

THE son of a Preston milk bar owner beaten in a violent attempted robbery says he is fearful the offenders will return.Ben Lin said he had taken off time from his own job in a supermarket to run the Victoria St store while his father, Xing Ming Lin, recovered from physical and mental scars from the June 7 incident. Mr Lin said he had been

cooking dinner when he heard a scuffle and emerged to see his 54-year-old father being beaten with a wooden bat.Wielding his own baseball bat, Mr Lin helped his father fend off the attackers and restrain a 17-year-old boy until police arrived.Police are searching for up to four other offenders after they fled in a white car on Raglan St.

It was not the first time the storehad been robbed. Mr Lin said he was scared the boy’s accomplices could return. “Maybe something will happen again, we’re an easy target,” Mr Lin said.After the attack the family spent$2000 on 16 security cameras to cover every inch of the store.Darebin Criminal InvestigationUnit acting detective Senior

Sergeant Steve Evans said the owners were within their rights to restrain the individual but the public should never underestimate the power of observation.“Our advice in general would beto observe but not to interfere,” Sen-Sgt Evans said. “Don’t underestimate the observations and how much they can help us.”Mr Lin’s family moved to

Melbourne from China in 2004 and he said it was the promise of safety and peace that lured them here.“That was a long time ago, that’schanged now,” Mr Lin said.Mr Lin thanked the communityfor the support they showed with cards, flowers, and kind words.The 17-year-old teen who was restrained by the pair was charged with assault and robbery offences.Know something?

Curtain rises on futureBarry Kennedy Theatre group hopes to return to ‘spiritual’ homebaseTHE Boilerhouse Theatre Company is hoping a lavish new production will remind everyone how vital it is for it to return to its former derelict home.The theatre, part of the historic Boilerhouse building on Jacksons Hill, was declared unsafe last year, forcing the company to perform elsewhere.The setback has also seen the disbandment of the Treehouse and Cubbyhouse junior theatre groups and a stripped down production schedule.Next month the group will perform

One Brick at A Time, a compilation musical show from the dozens of productions the amateur theatre group has performed over 30 years.The birthday bash will feature manyactors and production members of years gone and has been possible thanks to Killara Primary School making its hall available to the theatre group.Boilerhouse Theatre treasurer TonyRains said the loss of access to its long-time base on Jacksons Hill had set the

company back more than what was first thought.“Last year was a bit of a downer forthe group,” he said. “We thought we’d be OK, we’ve still got our people, but your home’s your home.

“We’re not like a football club whenyou think about members — we decide to do something and everyone jumps on board to support that concept, but it’s a harder task when you haven’t a place to call your own.”Mr Rains said the recent

announcement the State Government would buy back the Jacksons Hill precinct, handing four buildings making up an arts and culture precinct to Hume Council, was a light at the end of the tunnel.“We are hoping the transfer from theState Government goes smoothly and the work that needs to be done to get us back into the Boilerhouse happens sooner rather than later.”

Sunbury councillor and veteran Boilerhouse performer Leigh Johnson

said the theatre had one of its more testing periods since it was locked out of the Boilerhouse.“There are no other theatre groupsin the city of Hume, so it has survived on the passion of volunteers wanting to be involved in the arts,” he said. “Getting them back into their spiritual home is vital and I’d think it would be onwards and upwards from there.”

One Brick at a Time will be performed from July 6 to 8. Details: boilderhouseco.com

Hopes high for roos’

relocationWoolworths develops plan to move mob

WOOLWORTHS has committed to returning a mob of kangaroos stranded in a Mernda paddock to their home.Woolworths regional development manager Don Foulds said the company was working with a consultant to ensure a plan to relocate the mob to Plenty Gorge was finalised.

It is hoped the plan will be signedoff in about two weeks.About 40 kangaroos have been trapped on the Woolworths-owned land near the corner of Plenty and Bridge Inn roads since Easter.The announcement comes aftertwo months of campaigning by wildlife volunteers and reports by Whittlesea Leader on the precariousfuture of the trapped mob.Wildlife campaigner Krysti Severi said the decision followed positive discussions between campaigners, Woolworths, Whittlesea Council, Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning, LXRA and Parks Victoria.

“I’m not going to be breaking outthe champagne until the last

kangaroo has been taken home but this is very good news,” Ms Severi said.It is not yet known if officials willaccept a proposal by campaigners to sedate and relocate the mob at the cost of $100.

While risks were minimal because the mob would return to land they had already inhabited, relocation could take six to eight weeks depending on the reaction of the mob, weather and nearby development work, Ms Severi said.It was crucial the relocation is complete before the nearby Merndarail extension opens in September.Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning environmental compliance regional manager Brian Wearne said the department was “actively working on the situation”.
