editorial Welcome to this week’s editorial, As we con2nue to see the devasta2on of the floods up north and the heartbreak it is bringing to so many we can also appreciate that the impact of the floods will con2nue in these communi2es for years to come.

Homes have been destroyed and farms and businesses now face financial ruin. The general response from many will be “It’s OK, they are insured”. But as we discovered recently in the Mogo floods and also following the bushfires is that many of the proper2es affected were either not insured or drama2cally underinsured.

The floods up north are being called “unprecedented”. That might be so but it raises the point that the probability of floods rising to that level again is now real. And as a consequence, even as we read this, insurance companies and councils are mapping out new flood maps. Council’s will say they need to do this to iden2fy infrastructure at risk such as sewer pumps, water services, public buildings and general network infrastructure.

An example in Eurobodalla is the Council’s flood mapping of our low lying towns. Council say they have done this to iden2fy key assets that need to be raised ahead of flooding or sea surge. Fair enough. But their maps of these predic2ons, based on rubbery figures and generalised algorithms now shade proper2es with a Alarming RED that is officially registered against that property.

Imagine you have a house in one of these low lying towns. You know that storm water, floods or 2dal surges has never been on your property because of historical records and anecdotes. But now, during an “unprecedented flood” the flood waters lapped at the far corner of your otherwise elevated property. By virtue of a line drawn by someone based on a mathema2cal equa2on, you are now Flood Prone, and as such you will now pay a much higher premium. The same applies if another layer of Council’s mapping says you are bushfire prone.

In the Eurobodalla the residents of Surfside found that a layer in Council’s mapping system declared them at risk of rising seas and sea surges. Based on some very rubbery mathema2cs their proper2es were iden2fied and, while it is only a “predic2on” those affected are now paying an increased premium simply because Council makes the layer available to insurers who react to reduce their exposure to risk.

Those in the north who have never experienced the flood levels of this week may well discover that they are underinsured, as many across the State did aBer the bushfires, or they might find their premiums don’t cover floods and only storms and rain.

ABer the Great MopUp property owners will find themselves with higher premiums and newly imposed condi2ons if they decide to rebuild, such as increased floor heights above the latest flood level.

Much like we have in the South East there will be new homeless. Those who can’t afford to rebuild. Those who can’t find rentals, those who have no-where to go, that have no belongings and liFle hope of geGng back to “normal” because they were underinsured, and now the property they own faces increased premiums because the “unprecedented” is now the new normal. There is a lesson in there somewhere.

Eurobodalla Hospital land s.ll not acquired NSW Health confirms Eurobodalla Hospital land s2ll not acquired, more than a year aBer announcement In a remarkable admission today during Budget Es2mates, NSW Health bureaucrats today confirmed that the Liberal Na2onal Government s2ll does not own the land earmarked for the new Eurobodalla Hospital.

Senior execu2ves from NSW Health confirmed that the acquisi2on of the land was s2ll under nego2a2on, even though the site was first selected in 2020.

In response to ques2oning from Labor’s Walt Secord about acquisi2on of the land, Deputy Secretary Dr Nigel Lyons said: “It hasn’t been finalised yet…there have been ongoing nego a ons with the person who owns that land, they haven’t been able to reach agreement.”

This is the latest in a string of statements by the Government aFemp2ng to downplay the protracted process of acquiring the land.

Shadow Minister for Health, Ryan Park, said "What is clear is that the Government’s handling of the Eurobodalla Hospital has been shameful. They only promised a Level 4 hospital around by-elec2ons, but the devil is always in the detail with this Government.

"The Opposi2on will con2nue to advocate on behalf the people of Bega to ensure they deliver on their word – because this community deserves adequate health services.

On 1 February, appearing at a Parliamentary Inquiry, senior execu2ves from Southern NSW LHD stated that NSW Health was “currently finalising the sale agreement with the landowner”.

On 2 February, Health Minister Brad Hazzard stated that “the process is proceeding as planned”.

On 8 February, the Minister revealed that the landowner had in fact been served no2ce to begin compulsory acquisi2on of the land back in December 2021, following 13 months of nego2a2ons.

The Shadow Minister for Health said: "This is a Government that has completely failed the community when it comes to actually delivering the improvements to health services they need."

"Dr Holland and I will con2nue to fight for local residents to ensure this project gets back on track, that’s what they expect and that is what we will do."

Dr Michael Holland, Member for Bega, said: “It is deeply disappoin2ng to hear that the land for the Eurobodalla Hospital s2ll has not been acquired, more than a year since the site was announced.”

“From day one, this Government has failed to be transparent with our community about the new hospital, whether it’s about services, staffing, or even if they own the land to build it on. All we get from this Government is spin.”

“How can the community have faith that the hospital will be up and running in three years’ 2me when the Government doesn’t even own the land yet?”

“We don’t need more announcements and photo ops. We need a new hospital.”

NSW Labor’s representa2ves on the hearing are the Hon Greg Donnelly MLC and the Hon Walt Secord MLC.

Local people Gather for Ukraine Thirty people gathered in the rain in solidarity with the people of Ukraine at noon on Wednesday at St John’s Anglican Church, Moruya.

“We came together concerned at the suffering caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the threat to freedom and democracy. We stand for peace in the world and for giving shelter to more refugees in Australia.”

Teachers, nurses and tradies forced to live in tents due to housing crisis The South Coast is in a housing crisis so bad there have been reports that teachers, nurses and tradies are being forced to live in tents because there is nowhere to rent or buy.

Shadow Minister for Housing and Homelessness Rose Jackson has met with community members and housing groups across the South Coast and consistently heard the urgent need for more affordable housing.

"Dwelling prices across regional NSW have risen at almost double the rate of values in Greater Sydney. On the South Coast, they have risen by almost 21% over the past year alone.

"Vacancy rates on the South Coast are as low as 1% effec2vely meaning there are no places to rent in many towns.

"Professional people with decent full-2me jobs and good rental histories can’t find a place to rent or afford a place to buy.

More and more people are being pushed into homelessness, or living with inflated rents and no housing security.

The Shadow Minister for Housing and Homelessness Rose Jackson said “The government released their Regional Housing Taskforce months ago and s2ll have not implemented a single recommenda2on. We need ac2on right now, every day our communi2es are suffering.” To review the findings, visit Regional Housing Taskforce. beagle weekly : Vol 249 March 4th 2022

Head to Jobs Drive and care about your career It’s been called a caring workforce ‘crisis’ and Eurobodalla is not immune. Local health and community care providers are screaming out for staff and what this means for locals is, there’s plenty of jobs.

A Jobs Drive will be held on Wednesday 16 March in Moruya where jobseekers and career-changers can apply on the spot for more than 50 posi2ons across the community services sector.

It’s an ini2a2ve of Eurobodalla Council’s Employment Revolu2on Project, which is seeking to address the shire’s higher-than-average unemployment rate by geGng more workers into community care.

Above: Eurobodalla Council’s Employment Revolu on team is hos ng a community services jobs drive in Moruya on Wednesday 16 March in Moruya, where job-seekers can apply for more than 50 jobs from local employers. Pictured is admin officer Ashley Darby, project coordinator Rhonnie South and project officer Amy Kovacs.

Employment Revolu2on project coordinator Rhonnie South concedes there are many industries needing staff – hospitality and retail especially.

However, there’s an important factor that sets the community sector apart – care.

“When you are an essen2al worker, you’re oBen the best part of somebody’s day,” she said.

“That person looks forward to you coming, genuinely appreciates the service you provide – and you’re respected and thanked for it. It can be very rewarding to work in care.”

Jobs within community services include admin, human resources, hospitality, care work, gardens and maintenance, and more. Posi2ons are flexible - some don’t even require experience - and it offers fantas2c career pathways.

“Plus, as a care worker you’ll never be without work,” says Rhonnie, “you can travel anywhere in the world and you’ll always get employment.

“If you’ve been wondering if this line of work is for you, come down to the Jobs Drive and have a chat”.

“We’ll have stalls from at least 15 different employers who are looking for new team members and if you bring a resume you can apply on the spot. You can enrol in free training courses offered from various training providers on the day and speak to TAFE, South Coast Community College and University of Wollongong staff about care careers.”

The community services jobs drive will be held Wednesday 16 March at the RSL Memorial Hall, 9 Page Street, Moruya, from 10am-12pm. AFending employers include IRT, Anglicare, Fresh Hope Care, Muddy Puddles, Hammondcare, Es2a Health, Banksia Villages, Aligned Leisure and Eurobodalla Council.

For more informa2on or to register to aFend contact Council’s employment projects officer Amy Kovacs on 4474 7380 or email amy.kovacs@esc.nsw.gov.au beagle weekly : Vol 249 March 4th 2022

Rain delays Merimbula Airport reopening The closure of Merimbula Airport has been extended to 25 March due to rain delays.

Project Services Manager, Daniel Djikic said Council has been working closely with the contractor to iden2fy the most effec2ve way to complete the works with the least impact on the community and airlines.

“We’ve looked at a number of scenarios to complete the work as close to the original schedule as possible, but with the amount of rain we’ve had, and more rain forecast, we’ve had to plan for a 10-day extension to the airport closure,” Mr Djikic said.

“We know this is inconvenient for travellers, the airlines and the broader community, but unfortunately we are at the mercy of the weather and there’s not much we can do.

“If anything changes with the weather that will impact the planned re-opening date, we will inform the airlines and the community as soon as possible.

“Work is s2ll being carried out on-site in prepara2on for the sealing to re-start. All being well, this should start again on Thursday 10 March.”

The north and south runway extensions have been completed, the taxiways and apron have been strengthened and stabilised, and about 80% of the runway has been sealed with its first coat.

The sealing of the remainder of the runway, taxiways and apron will commence once the pavement has sufficiently dried out, followed by line marking and final safety checks before the airport re-opens.

Council has been working closely with the airlines and emergency services throughout the project and would like to thank the community for their pa2ence.

The runway extension and strengthening project is funded through two grants from the Commonwealth Government, two grants from the NSW Government and a Council contribu2on.

More informa2on about the project is available on Bega Council’s website.

real estate South Coast Property Specialists (Carlene Franzen) Tips #1086:

Changing Your Occupation into the Building Trade Are you a bit bored in your job and looking for something with real long-term opportunities? That sounds like an advertisement catch line doesn’t it. However, if the economists and statisticians are correct, Australia will need to increase its construction of residential accommodation massively over the next few decades to keep up with demand.

During last year we mentioned the Intergenerational Report which the Government released to help industries and businesses plan for the next 40 years. In the report, the population is projected to be nearly 39 million by 2061. Currently there are approximately 26 million people in Australia and it has taken over 200 years to get to this number. So, in the next 40 years our population will increase by 50% (13 million people).

The intergenerational report also forecasts that the number of people in each household (currently 2.5 people) will shrink slightly. The net impact of this is that we are going to require about a third more residential dwellings that we currently have today. Or put another way, that is one new property for every two properties that currently exists. Currently there are approximately 10 million homes in Australia and if we need to build 5 million homes over the 40 years that’s an average of 125,000 every year.

This is going to put a massive strain on the building industry from top to bottom. Town Planners and infrastructure providers will have to design new ways to cope with this increase and the building and building supplies companies will be flat out trying to keep up with demand.

Obviously not all of it will be taken up in more urban sprawl.

No doubt there will be a heavy reliance on high density living assuming people are able to move on from their reluctance to do so because of Covid. High rise apartments will likely start to appear in more areas other than the CBD and medium density housing such as townhouses will increase in all areas as well.

So, what does this mean for the regions like ours? Well, not everyone is going to want to live “cheek to jowl” and so those that are able to work remotely or don’t need to work at all, may well seek solace in regions such as ours where they have more room to move and enjoy a more relaxed lifestyle. Some may even take up a new trade…….maybe in the building industry.

Reading Gadfly 2021 By Robert Macklin So, where is James Bond when we need him?

Who better than JB with his license to kill at a time when an unbalanced dictator is threatening the world with a nuclear holocaust? Why doesn’t ‘C’ send him off to the Kremlin to do his stuff?

But since he’s not actually with us, surely our real-life assassins – be they singular or gathered around a drone monitor in the desert near Las Vegas – can do the job for us.

Of course, it probably won’t happen for two main reasons. First is the leader’s club, an agreement of sorts that makes them mutually immune from such direct action.

It’s okay for the US to proudly send the Navy Seals to assassinate Osama bin Laden who commanded the loyalty and affection of a massive following, but not Syria’s President Bashar al-Assad who bombed and gassed his own people. They executed Saddam Hussein after a show trial when he wasn’t president anymore, but only because an American President attacked his country with a demonstration of ‘shock and awe’ after some made-up fibs.

The second reason is, we might miss. And if Putin knows he’s a goner he might just order that nuclear holocaust so we all go down together. But he might do that anyway; and for that we have the authority of no less a personage than Dennis Richardson, former Secretary of Defence, head of ASIO and as Secretary of DFAT privy to the operations of our overseas intelligence gathering.

On Q&A he confided that his Russia specialist friends who have been watching Putin on TV are concerned about his ‘mental health’, especially since he is not restrained by a Politburo as were his predecessors.

Richardson is not alone in having such friends. Others, such as the former British Foreign Secretary, David (now Lord) Owen attributed the Russian President’s recent hostile actions to his abuse of anabolic steroids, which generate aggression in the abuser. And you need only to recall Putin’s bare-breasted horsemanship to catch a glimpse of his testosterone induced behavior. ‘That would explain a lot about his demeanor and his rhetoric in the past few months,’ Lord Owen’s friends say. ‘His brain is reacting to a chemical stimulant that is potentially lethal to himself and makes him a danger to other people.’

So, what to do? What does ethics say about our appropriate response?

Our best guide, perhaps is the classic ‘Trolly Problem’: There’s a runaway trolley barreling down the railway tracks. Ahead on the tracks there are five people tied up.

You are standing some distance away but next to a lever. If you pull the lever, the trolly will switch to a different set of tracks; but then you notice that there is one person on the side track.

You have only two options – do nothing, in which case the trolley will kill the five people on the main track; or pull the lever, diverting the trolley on to the side track where it will definitely kill one person. Which is the ethical option?

What is the right thing to do? Pull the lever or do nothing?

Of course, you and I, dear reader, don’t have to make that choice.

But each time I see the wreckage after a Russian missile has crashed into an apartment building, or a terrified young child and her weeping mother are holding each other in an underground bomb shelter, I can’t help thinking, ‘Bond…

James Bond.’ robert@robermacklin.com beagle weekly : Vol 249 March 4th 2022

Reading—A beer with Baz The bar erupted as Mick entered and the happy birthday day gree2ngs leB him red faced.

He smiled awkwardly and took up his bar stool next to Bazza.

The bar aFendant brought over a full pint of beer and Mick raised his eyes in acknowledgment.

‘Well Mick, happy birthday. Crikey, you have got a few kilometres on the clock now. How old?’

‘Well…… sixty…… ish, Bazza but I s2ll feel preFy young. I have a daily swim and ride the bicycle, but I hate birthdays these days.’

Mick had a small sip of the pint and rubbed his brow.

Bazza took out a marking pen and drew a 2ny line about two thirds of the way down Mick‘s pint glass.

Mick screwed his face.

‘Just helping you out, Mick. The way I see it you are about two thirds of the way through life and maybe you should think about just drinking down to the mark and saving the rest for the next thirty years.’

‘You’re all heart, Bazza. It’s a sad old day when the wife gives you a hearing aid for a birthday present and the daughter thought it was a great laugh to give me a Zimmer frame. Everyone seems to find this ageing process a great laugh. It’s a bloody conspiracy, Bazza. They keep making the print on all the labels smaller to make you get glasses. And I don’t know who designs chairs these days but they seem to be geGng lower. In the old days, when they made chairs at a decent height, I would spring up. It’s the same with beds. I need a forkliB to get up some days.’

Bazza laughed.

‘Ahhh…… come on Mick, you qualify for all those senior discounts these days. Haircuts, rail travel and the like, at a cut price.’

They both took a decent drink.

‘Well, Bazza…… the bloody haircuts should be cheaper. There is less of it. Anyhow, they have organised a party and no doubt I’ve got to give a speech.’

‘Should be easy enough, Mick. We had a neighbour who turned eighty awhile back. He didn’t want to give a speech but we asked him to divide his 2me, on this earth, into twenty year blocks. It ended up as the funniest impromptu birthday speech I’ve heard. The young ones even loved it. A speech of a couple of anecdotes that capture your three score….. and ish….. years, Mick, would be the go.’

Mick shook his head and was back to taking small sips of his pint.

‘Come on, Mick, cheer up. The way I see it if you last a few more decades you can be pleased you spent more 2me in this century than the last one.’

Mick smiled and laughed soBly. ‘I guess so, Bazza but I kinda think those same passing decades will s2ll leave you in the last century………..

And now, I can enjoy that drink.’

100 Years Ago—March 4th 1922 AMUSU THEATRE. – Pictures and dance every Wednesday. See ‘If Only Jim,’ a Western drama at the Amusu on Wednesday.

ANOTHER MILL CLOSED. – Owing to the 44-hour week, which resulted in a considerable decrease in the output, Mr. A. H. Preddey has been compelled to close down his Tuffwood sawmill at the Heads. This means a loss of £80 in spending power per week in this town.

INTERMEDIATE CERTIFICATE. – We are pleased to note that amongst the long list of successful candidates who gained Intermediate Cer2ficates, are the names Miss Ena, only daughter of Mrs. R. N. Carden, and who is a pupil of Loreto Convent School, Normanhurst, and Miss Dorothy Lynch, of Sydney, and a pupil of Bethlehem Ladies’ College, Ashfield.

SAD DEATH. – Very deep sympathy is expressed for Mr. and Mrs. H. J. Clarke, whose only daughter, Jean Nanice, passed away on Wednesday morning. This bright liFle girl, who was born in Taranaki, N.Z., and was 6 ½ years of age, was about five months ago operated on for adenoids and tonsili2s. Another opera2on, however, was deemed necessary, this being performed by Dr. Cutler on Wednesday, but when coming out of the anesthe2c the pa2ent collapsed and died from heart failure. The funeral took place on Thursday morning. …

SHOW BALL. – The Show Ball, which took place in the Amusu Theatre on the first night of the annual exhibi2on, was well aFended. Mr. C. de Saxe officiated in his usual courteous manner as M.C. and Miss Kurz and Mr. J. Buckley rendered their customary harmonious strains of music. Under the capable management of the wives, sisters and friends of the commiFee a recherche supper was set before the patrons. The door takings amounted to £16 15s.

RECOVERING. – We are pleased to report that Miss S. Cannon, of Mynora, under the care of Dr. Cutler, is progressing sa2sfactorily aBer her recent severe accident, through a horse geGng out of control of its rider, - Cragon (who was returning to Mr. A. LouGt’s on the second day of the Show) and galloping over her. The vic2m had a number of teeth knocked out, her face lacerated and her body considerably bruised, as well as sustaining a shock to her system.

The Bas presents Kurt Sorensen | A Strange Occurrence On the morning of 10 October 1880, an abandoned skiff of five sailors who had been surveying the Eurobodalla coast was found at what is now known as 'Mystery Bay', about halfway between Narooma and Bermagui. No sign of the men has ever been found.

No. 1 Type C photograph by Kurt Sorensen 2tled A Strange A Strange Occurrence is an exhibi2on of hand Occurrence printed colour photographic prints, exploring these events through a gothic European idea of the an2podean consciousness.

The 'strange occurrence', as contemporary newspapers called it, happened in a wilderness pulsa2ng with ancient unseen forces, obscured by clinging mist or undula2ng shadows.

Using the 'Bermagui Mystery' as a catalyst, the photographs seek to reflect on the unease that permeated through interac2ons Europeans experienced with the Australian landscape.

Enjoy Shakespeare outside, just as you like it For anyone thinking “O, how full of briars is this workingday world!”, Essen2al Theatre brings reprieve with a new produc2on of As You Like It. Curtains open on this newest Shakespeare in the Garden performance from 6.30pm on Saturday 5 and Sunday 6 March. While it may be true that “all the world’s a stage”, there’s none beFer for plein-air performance than the shire’s most popular venue, the Eurobodalla Regional Botanic Garden.

Garden manager Michael Anlezark said As You Like It featured some of Shakespeare’s most memorable lines.

“It’s a play about betrayal, love, mischief and foolery,” he said.

“There’s a villainous brother, a cross-dressing heroine, with love as the central theme. Of course, it all comes right by the end.

“So pack your picnic, blanket and a boFle of plonk. Gates open from 5.30pm.”

Your Tackle World Moruya Fishing Report Moruya River.

You have all probably guessed what this weeks report is going to say, and you’d be right! Another East coast low has dumped a good amount of rain, on all ready saturated catchments, the results are now the norm. The Moruya river is running high, fast and very dirty.

Localised flooding seems to be star2ng to recede as we move into the weekend, which is good. Fishing in the river, is going to be tough to say the least. Preddy’s wharf, and the airport flats are really going to be your only op2ons this weekend if you want to try your hand. Oily baits of mullet fillet will be the best op2on if you want to give it a crack.

There isn’t a lot I can really say to be honest, the fishing is going to be hard again.

Tuross River.

With a similar sized catchment to Moruya, Tuross is yet again, high, fast and dirty. What fish that are s2ll in the system, will be holding deep around the river mouth sec2ons. Oily baits will be the go, if you want to brave the dirty waters.

Coila lake was opened back up this week, as it yet again hit the magic 2m trigger point. That is 3 openings in 12 months, prawning will again be good for next summer.

Rock and beach.

These areas, will yet again, be the main stay of fishing for the next few weeks, that is once the big east coast low swells subside! Condi2ons on the beaches are messy to say the least, with sea foam piles making beach or even water access very difficult. The sea state is predicted to drop off by Saturday to about 2-2.5m swells, so hopefully this will allow beFer beach access.

The upside, is that big swells reinvigorate the beach environment, fresh guFers, lots of displaced food stuffs, will hopefully see an increase in fish ac2vity. Look for beaches that are away from the major local rivers, and you should be able to find cleaner water.

Offshore.

With big seas, no one has been geGng out to try their hand. So I don’t really have anything to report.

Once things do seFle down though, the snapper and flathead should be on the chew though.

With masses of flood waters s2ll present, and the chance of all local waterways rising rapidly again with any follow up rain, if it’s flooded…FORGET IT! If and when you do get back on the river or ocean for the boa2es, remember to keep a close eye on what’s in front of you. Submerged debris will hang around for a while as the rivers and oceans seFle. We finally also have stock of inflatable PFD recharge canisters, so if you have been wai2ng for them to come in, they are here.

Stay safe everyone and remember, “every days a good day for fishing…”

Team Tackle World Moruya.
