Trading the long commute to
Melbourne for the good life at the
Ballan Post Office was a no-brainer for Gordon couple Andrew
and Nicole Smith.
Taking over the business from
early January was a big step but
former owners Ivor and Jenny
were on-hand for a couple of
weeks to show the couple the
ropes, before being farewelled
with a free sausage-sizzle community celebration complete with
a cake replica of the post office.
We just thought it was a nice
way to send them off, Andrew
explained. Everyones so welcoming, and its exceeded our
expectations the friendliness and
the good will.
Its a wonderful bright red post
office its still going, the girls
get a smidgeon each day - it has
the peaked roof and the wall of
post office boxes out the front,
and the big mail box, Nicole said
of the cake made by local Clare
McMahon.
The decision to buy the business
was made when Andrew came
across it on the internet.
I was doing a three-hour commute back and forth each day into

HEALTH
AND CARE
Rural Not-For-Profit Health Service delivering Acute, Community, Aged and Child Care Services
By Kate Taylor
One historically significant
chimney will be retained
but other items demolished
or relocated as part of the
redevelopment of the old
Darley Brickworks site.
A Development Assessment
Committee meeting held by
Moorabool Shire Council in
December heard the application to build a 144-bed residential aged care facility and
a 43-lot residential subdivision on the Grey St property.
The site is currently occupied by buildings and structures forming part of the
former Darley Refractories
operations, being the extant
large industrial sheds together with several smaller
structures and three chimney stacks.
Most existing buildings and
structures on the site will
be demolished or removed,
however the southernmost
chimney will be retained,
with repairs undertaken
to ensure its structural
integrity.
The residential aged care
facility will be located on
the eastern portion of the
site, occupying approximately 1.83ha, and will be
subdivided from the balance
of the site to the west and
north; it will be a single storey building with a footprint
of 8,100sq m and provide
144 beds with communal
dining, lounge and library
areas, and service areas
including kitchens, a laundry, office/meeting rooms,
therapy rooms and a chapel,
as well as seven courtyards.
The proposed residential
subdivision will be contained on the balance of the
land, approximately 3.95ha,
and comprise 43 lots ranging in size from 606sq m to
1265sq m.
Elements judged to be of
moderate significance were
the site offices, the central
chimney, the processing
building, the Northern
chimney, and the No. 6 kiln.
The report stated that the
heritage experts recommendations were based only on
the heritage significance of
the site, and acknowledges
that they may not be able
to be followed due to other
considerations for the site,
such as opportunities for
redevelopment.
The
recommendations
included that all elements
rated as of high significance
be retained; that many of the
elements rated of moderate
significance be retained in
order to provide greater context for the elements of high
significance and further convey the nature of industrial
processes undertaken at the
site.
It is also likely that the
retention of at least some
other elements would lend
additional character to the
proposed development, the
report read.
A policy of preservation
by record was also recommended for all of the
elements that will not be
retained, as well as a ground
study to be undertaken accompanied by archaeological monitoring to ensure that
any sub-surface elements of
interest are recorded prior to
their destruction.
The report stated that the
land owner is willing to
preserve by record or incorporate a plaque to commemorate the sites history, possibly with the involvement
of the Bacchus Marsh and
District Historical Society.
Furthermore, the landowner and Historical Society have indicated a mutual

It is considered unlikely
that the use of land for tourism in the form of accommodation will impact on any
adjoining agricultural use. It
is also noted that the objection comes from the adjoining property to the East and
the development is to occur
on the western side of the
site, some 600 metres from
the eastern boundary.

By Kate Taylor
An agricultural operation in
Bacchus Marsh will be allowed to
continue following a lengthy battle.
Watsons Bulk Logistics has
operated from its 18 Fisken St
site for approximately four years,
employing 15 people but without
proper permits.
In 2012, council received a
complaint that the site was being
used to store grain trucks; up to
10 B-double grain trucks were
routinely being stored at the site
overnight.
A 2013 hearing at the Victorian
Civil and Administrative Tribunal
heard that the land was also being
used for rural industry, and had
had silos constructed.

The court heard other factors included a failing marriage that resulted in Ms Pete

Despite the crime committed the accused was found
guilty without conviction
and ordered to comply with
a Mental Health Plan.

funding cuts
By Kate Taylor
Federal government funding cuts to aged care are
disappointing but talks
about big plans for Ballan
continue, according to Ballan District Health and Care
CEO Wayne Weaire.
Mr Weaire said he supports comments made by
the Chief Executive Officer
of Leading Age Services
Australia Victoria (LASA
Victoria) Trevor Carr, who
said he is disappointed by
a recent federal government
announcement to cut $472
million from aged care services and $595 million from
health workforce programs,
including aged care.
Mr Weaire, a member on
the LASA Victoria board,
said he shares Mr Carrs
concerns.
Mr Carr said regional and
remote aged care providers
are struggling to remain viable with a much awaited
Government report likely to
point to a need for a funding
increase for the services.
Further cuts to the operational budgets of Australias
remote and regional providers will have disastrous
consequences to the sustain-

Bacchus Marsh has grown a lot over the last few years, and has become more diverse with people
from different nationalities moving here. I talked to people who now call The Marsh home.
Lakhvir (Lucky) and Shamsher are cousins
from Punjab, India, close to the border of
Pakistan, who came to Australia with their
wives Sandeep and Baljinder in 2009 on
student visas. Later that same year they
moved to Bacchus Marsh.
1. Why did you move to Australia?
Lucky We came to study, for
employment opportunities and for a
better life for ourselves and our children.

State steps in on
recovery effort
By Kate Taylor
Recovery efforts following the Scotsburn fire are
continuing.
Minister for Agriculture
Jaala Pulford visited the area
last week, announcing funds
for the recovery effort.
Minister
Pulford
announced $340,000 for both
the Scotsburn and Barnawartha fires, with no detail
yet about how the money
will be split between the
areas.

net loss if they choose to log
the coupe.
The day before our gathering the bulldozers arrived.
Tasmanian
Resources
Minister, Paul Harriss, is
responsible for this clearfelling. Members of FLAG
had requested a meeting
with Minister Harriss for
quite a while. Eventually
they got a meeting. I thought
it worth quoting from Stewart Hoyt who was present at
the meeting as he reflected
on the meeting and wrote
to the Premier about what
happened.
Stewart writes, It is not
without due consideration,
consultation and seven days
of reflection that I write you
regarding the meeting at
Minister Harriss offices.
This momentous and much
anticipated occasion was attended by Abbey Duncan
who flew in from Melbourne
to the opposition. The comment was targeted exclusively onto Stewart and the other
members of our delegation
were ignored even when
they asked to speak. In all,
it was an extraordinary experience and extremely sad
to realise that our elected
governments Minister saw
fit to preside and facilitate
over such a farce whose sole
objective was to denigrate
and overwhelm a delegation from a rural Tasmanian
community.
Stewarts daughter, Jessica a
mother and nurse in Hobart,
who grew up in this Lapoinya forest, was arrested and
charged the day after I visited this coupe. She will face
a hefty fine and possible imprisonment under the new
laws that exist nowhere else
in Australia.

Perspective
imagination to understand
the monumental challenge
aged carers face into the future. A survey of Disability,
Ageing and Carers {SDAC)
estimated that 4.2 million
Australians, or 18.5% of the
population, had a disability.
Not all of the 4.2 million
with a disability will require
24/7 care from their families,
but with 2.7 million unpaid
carers in this country, the
numbers speak for themselves. When you breakdown the age groups of
carers it is blatantly obvious
that age is the nemesis of the
adult carer; apart from the
inevitable physical conditions that come with age, the
threat of separation weighs
heavily should the disabled
be institutionalised.
About a year ago a local
resident came into my office
with a concept plan for a retirement village for elderly
carers, and disabled family
members. The model keeps
both the disabled family
member and the family carer on the one site in separate
accommodation, providing
permanent respite for the
carer without isolating or
separating.
When you consider that
most family carers continue
on in the family home until
they physically cant cope,
having the capacity to lighten their workload and have
some semblance of retirement would make a dramatic difference to the quality of
life for both the carer and the
family member; taking into
consideration that other residents with the similar issues
would form the community the potential health and
wellbeing benefits would be
enormous.
It is estimated that the replacement value of unpaid
care provided last year is
$60.3 billion; thats over $1
billion per week, or 3.8% of
Gross Domestic Product. Put
that into Perspective, and
if the system fell over tomorrow, so would the Government. Finding a solution is
not a nice to have, its an
economic necessity.
Currently, Primary carers are providing 1.9 billion hours of unpaid care,
and the National Disability
Scheme has a long way to go
before it makes any inroads
to the enormity of the problems. With around one in
three households containing
a person with a disability,
the issue is being clouded by
the selfless work being done
by Primary carers.
Government
concerns
about the health system being put under pressure by
people living longer is only
the tip of the ice-berg; the
disability sector is underfunded to the point of despair. It is unacceptable to
put young disabled people
into an aged care facility because the Primary carers are
in need of carers themselves.
Retirement villages that
cater for both aged and disabled members of our society
allow a balanced measure of
professional care and home
living, whilst at the same
time taking into consideration some form of normality

Making an
offer on a
private sale
As the negotiations continue, ensure your offer is in
writing and must be accepted by a fixed date and time.
You can also make it subject
to obtaining finance, or the
sale of an existing property.
Enzo Raimondo
CEO, REIV
One of the most frequent
questions REIV members
are asked is how to make
an offer to buy a property
privately. While high auction numbers were recorded
throughout 2015, more than
70 per cent of homes change
hands through a private sale
process.
