Springs takes crown A CAROLINE Springs home has been crowned Melton’s most expensive house for 2013.

The abode, in Lauriston Quay, sold for $980,000 in April last year.

The four-bedroom, two-bathroom lakeside home has a formal lounge, theatre room, a kitchen with three types of ovens and a butler’s pantry.

The average house price for Caroline Springs is $445,000, according to figures from the Real Estate Institute of Victoria (REIV).

Figures from the REIV have also revealed the in the most affordable house Melton municipality – in Hume Ave, Melton South – sold for just $180,000 last year.

During 2013, more than 1070 houses, units and flats were sold in Melton.

Across the September quarter, median house prices in the area included $473,000 in Burnside Heights, $452,000 in Hillside and $441,500 in Taylors Hill.

Elsewhere, Brookfield lodged an average house price of $355,000, Melton West $290,000 and Melton $249,000.

There were not enough sales in Melton’s other towns and suburbs for the REIV to calculate a median home price.

However, the REIV’s Enzo Raimondo predicted the Melbourne property market would see a moderate price growth over 2014.

“The outlook for 2014 remains positive with price and sales growth expected to continue although at a more moderate pace than what we have seen in the past few months,” he said.

“The performance of the housing market next year would also be dependent on broader macroeconomic factors, in particular the unemployment rate and changes in consumer sentiment which could place some downward pressure on price growth in 2014.”

He said there were more than 4600 auctions in Victoria during November last year.

“The REIV estimates total sales in Victoria to be between 100,000 and 110,000 which means that it could be the highest since the 118,300 sales recorded in 2010,” Mr Raimondo said.

“Most of this growth occurred in the second half of the year and reflects the very strong market in the past few months.”

Big day out

IT’S time to put on your thongs, throw another snag on the barbie and enjoy the serenity. Australia Day is on this Sunday.

There are plenty of events on across the West for you to enjoy and celebrate our great nation. Siblings, from left, Petra, Alex and Marcus Hansby got a head-start on celebrations last week.

A CAROLINE Springs resident will perform with singer Sarah De Bono during her upcoming shows in South Australia and Queensland.

Jason Di Cicco is the founder and director of JDC Performing Arts Studios, which has studios in his home suburb and Werribee.

The 26-year-old was acquainted with Sarah, who grew up in Sunshine, before she found fame on the first season of ‘The Voice’.

Sarah was a vocal coach at JDC before she hit the big-time on television.

Although Mr Di Cicco knew Sarah before she became a household name, he said he was

surprised to receive a call asking him to choreograph and cast dancers in her latest shows.

“I thought it was fantastic, I said yes and I was booked on the spot,” Mr Di Cicco said.

In October last year, he held an open-call audition in Werribee which was attended by just under 100 dancers.

Mr Di Cicco selected five to perform in Ms De Bono’s tour.

“It’s going to be a very commercial and upbeat show,” he said.

“Sarah and her manager are easy to work with, the dancers are great and quick learners and pick up choreography straight away.”

On Australia Day, he and the other dancers will perform at the Adelaide Festival Centre.

THE number of homeless youth is soaring in Melbourne’s West and North-Western Suburbs, according to several advocates in the region.

They have called for more action to address issues which can lead to homelessness including high rates of youth unemployment, mental health, drugs and alcohol, school suspensions and relationship breakdowns.

This comes in the wake of a report from the Council to Homeless Persons, which has proposed that the State Government spend $143 million across a decade to provide more housing and support.

More than 18,000 young people from across the West seek assistance from Youth Junction Inc, based in Sunshine, every year.

General manager Karen Hart said there was a “huge demand and growing” for homeless services, partly due to a lack of affordable private rental homes and social housing in the West.

“

There are single mothers and kids living in expensive and inappropriate boarding houses…

Melanie Raymond

Chair of the not-for-profit Youth Projects group, Melanie Raymond, said estimates showed more than 40 per cent of clients lived in shortterm “insecure accommodation” which often leads to homelessness.

“While inner Melbourne has the highest rates of street homelessness, Melbourne’s outer North and West are seeing a rise in homelessness over the past few years,” Ms Raymond said.

“We have heard of clients sleeping in cars, caravans, old warehouses and on the streets in this area.

“There are single mothers and kids living in expensive and inappropriate boarding houses – just suburban homes crammed full of people and completely unsuitable for children and many may be unregistered.”

Ms Raymond said the most effective programs to combat homelessness and related issues were those designed locally, but they did not receive much funding despite rising demand.

“Together with other charities in this area, Youth Projects are doing more with less,” she said.

“Funding hasn’t kept pace with increased demand for emergency accommodation, mental health counselling and support services and basic material aid.

Well-known youth worker Les Twentyman said he had heard of a Brimbank boarding house which has a practice called ’hot bedding’, where multiple people sleep shifts in the one bed.

He said more refuges were needed in the West, aside from one in Footscray and another in Sunshine owned by his charity, the 20th Man Fund.

“That’s 16 beds for the whole of the Western Suburbs,” he said.

PSOs’ positive impact felt

By YASEMIN TALAT THIS week will mark the oneyear anniversary of Protective Services Officers at Watergardens Train Station.

Since the deployment of PSOs at Watergardens Station and across most stations on the Sunbury Line there has been significant drop in anti-social behaviours.

“We are really happy with the Protective Services Officers at Watergardens station,” said Acting Inspector Pat Allen from Victoria Police.

“Since their deployment a year ago, we have seen a reduction in anti-social behaviour and many members of the public have made it a point to let us know that they now feel safer at the station.”

Intaj Khan in front of the old Mowbray College. 101670

his chosen name was too similar to theirs.

Mr Khan said the school would now be called West Lakes Grammar School.

And while it was hoped the school would open this year, Mr Khan said a submission to the Victorian Registrations and Qualifications Authority (VRQA) could not be completed on time and he was now looking at a 2015 opening.

“A number of things delayed the opening,” Mr Khan said.

“For one, we were proposing a primary school but the campus was suited for a secondary school, so we had to work around that.”

Mr Khan said he had already received 80 expressions of interest from parents and he was confident the school would be ready to ac-

WESTERN Suburbs residents will have to wait a bit longer for a much-needed school after “time constraints” caused the opening of a primary school on the old Mowbray College Caroline Springs campus to be delayed by up to two years.

Wyndham Councillor Intaj Khan bought the campus for $6 million after it was closed down due to massive debts.

Star revealed last year that he was planning on opening a primary school on the site under the name of West Melbourne Grammar School.

But his plans hit a snag when he was taken to court by Westbourne Grammar School because

safety at the train stations across the west.

He said that commuters were thankful for the PSOs presence.

“People like us being there,” Mr Dinapoli said. “And they know we’re there to help them.”

“They know that we are there on every line and we continue to build rapport with the locals,” he said.

According to Victoria Police data, from the PSOs first shift on 22 January 2013 to 30 June 2013, a total of 52 infringement notices were handed out at Watergardens Station.

Offences included drunk in public place, possessing an open container of alcohol, and smoking in restricted areas.

School’s out a little longer

By XAVIER SMERDON

PSOs Dario Dinapoli and Ron Jones, who both embraced the role as PSO 12 months ago, said the drop in anti-social behaviour also influenced an increase in community safety and confidence in PSOs. “I’ve seen a great change in behaviour,” Mr Jones said.

“Young kids causing trouble around the station has dropped off,” he said.

“It still happens but very, very little.”

“And you see a lot more people on the trains now because of that too,” he said.

Mr Dinapoli said the PSOs had been welcomed by the community and acknowledged for their contribution to the increased

cept students next year.

“We’ve done a feasibility study and we know that we need 220 students minimum in the first year to make it viable,” he said.

“We’ve already received 80 expressions of interest even though we haven’t advertised anything.

“We’ve replied back to those parents and apologised and explained that we won’t be able to open this year.”

Mr Khan said the community was obviously crying out for a new school in the area.

“We’ve had a few hurdles recently and now I think we’re on track,” he said.

“It’s disappointing that we won’t open this year but it is also disappointing that the parents have to go through this.”

Keeping cool at the pool MELBOURNE’S summer finally arrived last week with the most intensive heatwave the city has experienced since 2009. Some lucky youngsters who were definitely not too cool for the pool enjoyed splashing around at Paul Sadler Swimland in Taylors Lakes on Thursday. Three-year-old Brodie and Kyah, pictured with 17-month-old Taj and their mother Ashley Wright, showed off their swimming skills for Star. The Bureau of Meteorology weather monitoring station in Tullamarine recorded a temperature of 43.1 degrees Celsius at just after 4.20pm on the day and a low of 23.7 before 6am. Beaches in Altona, Williamstown and Werribee South also proved popular with residents in the West looking for relief from the hot sun. 112891 Picture: KRISTIAN SCOTT

SELLERS MUST DECLARE BUSHFIRE RISK AS Melbourne sweltered through its heatwaves, thoughts inevitably turn to preparing for the risk of bushfires.

It’s more important than ever for homeowners to know whether they live in a bushfire prone area.

Since 31 July last year vendors must provide this information under the amendment to the Sale of Land Act 1962 which was made as a result of a recommendation by the 2009 Victorian Bushfire Royal Commission into the Black Saturday bushfires.

A spokesperson for Consumer Affairs Victoria said property buyers must be told upfront whether land is in a bushfire-prone area.

Sellers are required to establish whether their property is in a bushfire-prone area.

If so, they must ensure this information is disclosed in the Section 32.

The Consumer Affairs spokesperson also warned “if the information in a vendor statement is inaccurate or incomplete, including the information required by the bushfire amendment, a buyer has the option of rescinding the contract at any time before settlement.

“Also, a buyer can cool-off by giving the seller or their

ESTHER LAUAKI

agent written notice within three business days of signing the contract, provided the sale was for a residential or small rural property that was not purchased within three business days before or after a public auction, and the buyer is not an estate agent or corporate body,” she said.

REIV CEO Enzo Raimondo said the information is not only a reminder to agents in rural areas but it applies to properties across the state and includes outer suburbs.

In August 2013 the state’s Bushfire Prone Area maps, specifying areas prone to or likely to be prone to bushfire, were updated.

Almost 236,000 properties were removed from the bushfire regulations as a result of the review, but another 119,000 were added for the first time.

He warns that homeowners should not assume they know the bushfire status of their home and that homebuyers should conduct their own due diligence and find out whether a home they were thinking of buying was in a bushfire prone area.

The information is available free by going to the Victorian Government’s Land Channel website www.land.vic.gov. au where specific addresses can be searched and bushfire prone area maps are available.

Lions full of fight

By ADEM SARICAOGLU TAYLORS Lakes coach Steve Burns is confident his Lions will remain a premiership contender in 2014.

The Division One Essendon District Football League club finished fourth before falling just five points short of victory in a knockout final against Tullamarine last season.

Despite his current concerns about pre-season numbers out on the training track, Burns remains confident there is still enough quality on his list to ensure the Lions will again be a contender this season.

“It’s probably, if anything, been our worst (pre-season) in the six years I’ve been senior coach,” Burns admitted.

“It’s still all right - we’re still averaging 33 or 34 a night which is still pretty good, but we’re normally used to having 50.

“But the pleasing thing for me is all our better players are training at the moment.

“Out of our best 20 or 22, probably 17 or 18 of them are training, which is good. It’s just the fringe players and the younger blokes coming up that haven’t fronted yet.”

Taylors Lakes was notably one of the division’s best defensive units in 2013.

The Lions only gave up triple figures on three occasions throughout the season

- each time against the eventual grand finalists, Glenroy and the Northern Saints.

For Burns, the key area for improvement in 2014 will be inside the forward 50, where Mark Xuereb was the only dominant force for the Lions last season.

“Our forward line needs to be totally revamped and we need a forward line that’s capable of kicking goals, because our defence and midfield are as good as anybody else in the comp,” Burns said.

“We haven’t been able to recruit a key forward but we’ve got Jake De Sousa, Mark’s brother, back from Deer Park, which is handy for us.

“He’s a quality footballer who will come into our forward line and we’re going to mix a couple of things up and we’ve got Lachie Calder back as well, who missed most of last year with travelling and injury.

“To have those two in there will already make it better and we’re going to go back to some stuff we used to do in the past, which will hopefully make us more potent in that forward 50.”

Along with a few former Essendon Doutta Stars under-18s players, midfielder Jay Milford-Robertson has also made the move to Lionheart Reserve, coming across from the Southern Football League during the summer.

Mark De Sousa has replaced the now retired Daniel McFerran as a playing assistant coach for Taylors Lakes in 2014. 86538 Picture: MATHEW LYNN The Lions will begin their 2014 campaign on the road against Westmeadows in early April.
