$4.2 MILLION TO RESTORE 94 SECTIONS OF ISAAC ROADS A major government-funded project will see 94 sections of road, spanning a total of 65 kilometres, across the Isaac region restored in a $4.2 million works program. Isaac Regional Council has awarded the multi-million dollar contract to Epoca Constructions to be delivered through Natural Disaster Relief and Recovery Arrangements (NDRRA), jointly funded through the Commonwealth and State. The works, to be carried out over a four-month period, include restoration of unsealed roads, reconstruction of sealed roads and reconstruction of drainage structures. Seven road teams will be dispatched to work sites around Clermont, Middlemount, Dysart, Moranbah, St Lawrence and Glenden. Mayor Anne Baker said restoring roads in Isaac brings a crucial contribution to economic development and growth and bring important social benefits. “They are of vital importance in order to make the region grow and develop especially following severe weather events,” Mayor Baker said. “We expect a total of 40 employees to be involved in the delivery of the contracted work and we look forward to the contractors spending local and energising

Council has undertaken emergent works to date to ensure safety of motorists up to this date. “Road infrastructure is among the most important of all our public assets and we will continue our focus on making our road infrastructure more resilient.” Mayor Baker said traffic control measures will be imposed on all the sites. “We encourage motorists to take extra care when driving through roadworks – this is for your safety and the safety of the road workers who are restoring our roads,” Mayor Baker said. “Council has undertaken a series of emergent works to date to ensure safety of motorists up to this date. “This program is extremely important to our future and for our mining, cattle, transport and tourism industries.” The funding, which comes under the NDRRA’s Restoration of Essential Public Assets, is essential to restore the road network from severe weather events.

IF IT’S FLOODED, FORGET IT Incidents of drivers crossing flooded rivers and creeks emerged as a concern in the aftermath of last week’s storms.
For access to information on road and traffic conditions or to report an incident, please contact QLDTraffic via their 13 19 40 phone service.
Mayor Anne Baker said was disappointing that motorists ignored safetymessaging around flooded roads.
For safety and preparedness advice, visit Queensland’s Disaster Management Services website www.disaster. qld.gov.au.
“It’s simple, if it’s flooded, forget it,� said Mayor Baker. “Floodwater is unpredictable and there is no way for drivers to know what lies underneath the surface. “The second you decide to push through floodwater, you give up control and can put the lives of our emergency services at risk. “Consider not only your safety but that of people that may have to rescue you. If you come across a flooded river or creek, be wise and find another way.�
For weather updates visit www.bom.gov.au or call 1300 659 219. For emergency assistance call the Queensland State Emergency Service (SES) on 132 500 (for assistance with storm damage, rising flood water, fallen trees on buildings or roof damage). In a life-threatending emergency always call 000.

CR LYN’S COLUMN Let’s hope everyone is not melting in the heat that we have been experiencing. You just have to remind yourselves that yes this is SUMMER so we just have to cop it. This is a nice little lead into our recent water bills and how much or how little everyone is up for paying. Got to admit that I was very pleasantly surprised with my household bill. We did not consciously slash our water habits but we were a lot more aware of usage and it showed in the bottom line. I went to Brisbane on the week-end to see my kids and we always have a wonderful peaceful time. No make-up, no fancy dresses and best of all – NO HIGH HEEL SHOES. Yes, I know that I can choose not to wear them but vanity usually prevails and I hobble around because I always think they complete the outfit. You would think that after all of these years I would learn.
BOARDWALK CLOSED Clermont residents and visitors are reminded that areas of the boardwalk at Hoods Lagoon are presently closed to pedestrian access. Sections of the boardwalk sustained significant damage during last week’s storm event.
Now onto a more serious and sadder topic. As most of you would know my Uncle Theo passed away on January 25 in Charters Towers at the aged care facility there. What is truly sad is the fact that he was not able to die where we know that he wanted to be, and that was in Clermont (his home). I know that this situation has been inflicted upon several of our locals and family members have been sent to other towns away from all they know and their loved ones. As we are a small community with limited resources, it means that we do not have the facilities that would enable us to keep all of our loved ones close. This is sad but until the government can provide our elderly with all the different type of facilities they may need, we will have to keep sending our families away. If anyone has the answer to this predicament I would love to hear it. Until next time.... Lyn

The existing localities border Barcaldine and Central Highlands regional councils in the south-west corner of the Isaac region. “Residents in the Mistake Creek and Peak Vale areas have expressed concern about the difficulties they experience with essential service delivery, such as mail and emergency assistance,” Mayor Anne Baker said.
CENTRAL HIGHLANDS REGIONAL COUNCIL
“We are aware of one instance where emergency services were inadvertently dispatched to the incorrect location as a result of this confusion.

“This is due, in part, to confusion between locality names and property names being similar or identical.
