A Williamstown seamstress who turned her hand to making masks after her business closed, is giving away about 400 each day. Nhi “Annie” Tran said that after her clothing-alteration shop at 20 Ferguson Street shut due to the coronavirus, she found another way to help the community. “At the moment, because I don’t have work at all, I am just trying to do something for Australia, to help,” she said. “On Monday and today, I’ve run out of more than 400 masks. “Some people come and make a donation of money as well. Some give me fruit, and even a cake. Someone gave me chocolate as well.” She said it took about 10 prototypes before she was satisied with a snug-itting pattern. “I’ve got some for the baby as well, but now I have run out of baby ones,” Ms Tran said. “Now, I just make the masks and keep everybody safe irst. If everybody is safe, it means we are safe.” Goya Dmytryshchak

Virus forces tip closure By Alesha Capone Wyndham council is continuing to change the way it delivers services during the COVID-19 pandemic. he council has been quick to respond to the coronavirus crisis with a inancial rescue package and the introduction of measures to help keep the community safe. As the number of cases in Wyndham reached 28 when Star Weekly went to press, the council closed the Wests Road tip to the public, transitioned maternal and child health services to telephone consultations and developed a new platform to help keep residents connected.

he council said the transfer station at the municipal tip in Werribee would be closed to the public for the foreseeable future to limit he spread and impacts of coronavirus, however it will remain open to commercial users. he expiry date of tip vouchers will be extended for the period that the transfer station is closed and residents with valid vouchers will be able to exchange them for an additional hard waste collection from their homes. he council said it was “very aware of the possibility that illegal dumping may increase” as a result of the transfer station being closed to the public. “We will continue business as usual in monitoring, investigating and prosecuting

any illegal dumping across our municipality,” a notice to residents stated. he council has also announced an Economic Strengthening and Community Development program, which will include relief for fees such as dog registrations. While the council’s animal rangers are continuing to work, they have temporarily suspended cat trapping, and have requested that residents do not privately trap felines. Mayor Cr Josh Gilligan said the council has also developed a new website to help keep residents connected. “here are many ways we can still connect and share online as a community, including

through council’s new website, Wyndham Together,” Cr Gilligan said. “Wyndham Together will feature videos, articles, classes, and tips on what we can do to keep socially connected, while keeping apart physically. “his site is not just about council-related material. We are keen to involve the entire community in our new platform, sharing upliting videos and online events from our business community or local interest groups. “We will add new content daily, as we bring together classes, videos, and articles from across the community.” Details: www.wyndhamtogether.com.au

Council slams carpark meetings By Alesha Capone Wyndham councillors have criticised regulations which will force them to attend monthly meetings in the Werribee Civic Centre’s carpark, as the coronavirus pandemic continues. Councils across the state, the state Opposition and the Municipal Association of Victoria (MAV) are lobbying the state government to relax legal requirements around council meetings, which do not allow them to be held remotely via methods such as video conferencing.

Local Government Victoria last month issued a bulletin which said that, under the Local Government Act and the Local Government Bill, councillors must be physically present in a room to vote on decisions. Although the New South Wales government has announced it will change the law to allow councils to hold meetings electronically, Victoria’s government has not followed suit. When Wyndham council called a special meeting on March 23, in relation to COVID-19, it was held in the civic centre’s carpark, in order for the councillors to sit further apart than usual, and practice social distancing.

Several Wyndham councillors have taken to social media to condemn the fact that this might have to continue into the future. Mayor Josh Gilligan wrote: “Councillors don’t want to be forced to work out of a carpark to vote on matters of importance to over 280,000 residents. “he premier must call back Parliament and support local councils to do their job as eiciently as possible.” Cr Peter Maynard described the situation as “absolute stupidity”. “We need to adjust to allow continuity of council decisions and services without councillors having to physically be in the room

to hold a meeting,” he posted. Cr Mia Shaw said: “his is disappointing considering the work local councils are doing to support the state government and our communities during this crisis.” he state Opposition’s spokesperson for local government, Tim Smith, said councils “should be able to meet … remotely during the restrictions put in place due to COVID-19.” he MAV is calling for the Local Government Act to be amended to enable councils to hold meetings online or for the state government to use powers under the Emergency Management Act to allow for alternate solutions.

Local listings at your ingertips A Point Cook tech-head has created a website making it easier for residents to support local restaurants and cafes as they settle into life in lockdown because of the COVID-19 crisis. James Morgan last week launched the Pointcook.delivery site, designed to show residents which food outlets are open and provide a delivery service in the area. Mr Morgan said the idea was born out of his desire to help businesses that were doing it tough. “It’s a mobile-friendly website designed to put all of the diferent ordering and delivery services of our local restaurants in one place,

because at the moment there’s so many diferent services in the market it can be hard to ind the one you need,” he said. While he works full-time in telecommunications, Mr Morgan also runs a television production business and said he understands the strain that employees and employers are under. “As a small business owner myself I know how badly a lot of our local traders will be hurting, and ater seeing so many people on social media [residents groups] wanting to support local establishments but not being sure

where to order – I thought it would be great if someone aggregated them in one place. “I decided to be that ‘someone’ … two nights of work later it was ready for launch. “It cost me a couple of hundred dollars to buy the domain and set it up but that’s pretty much it. “In the irst weekend the site has helped connect customers to local businesses more than 1000 times, which is really encouraging.” Any business that would like to be listed should email help@pointcook.delivery.

Werribee Mercy Hospital will receive more than $1.16 million in funding from the state government for medical equipment and engineering infrastructure replacements and upgrades. Werribee MP Tim Pallas announced the funding last month. Mr Pallas said that Mercy Health was one of 26 health services across the state to share in $60 million of fundingfrom the Medical Equipment Replacement Program and the Engineering Infrastructure Replacement Program. Cutting-edge equipment funded as part of the programs includes CT units, digital x-ray units, ultrasounds, operating room microscopes and heart imaging equipment such as transesophageal echocardiogram units. “Wyndham patients deserve the very best and safest care possible,” Mr Pallas said. “hat means giving our dedicated doctors and nurses the latest, cutting edge tools they need to do their job keeping us healthy and saving lives. “his funding boost for Mercy Health will help maintain a high standard of care and provide a safe environment for their patients.” he state government also announced last week that all non-urgent public dental procedures across Victoria will be placed on hold for the next three months, to limit the spread of coronavirus and to protect patients and staf.

Helping hand just a text away By Alesha Capone Werribee South woman Liz Bartlett has launched a community register to assist residents during the coronavirus pandemic. Ms Bartlett, an ex-nurse, said the register was both for people who could provide help and those who might need help – such as residents in isolation, older residents, healthcare workers and employees keeping essential services running. Ms Bartlett said she wanted people who required help – or who could assist others – with tasks such as meal preparation and

delivery, dog walking and pet care, collecting groceries or medication and IT matters, to get in touch. She also hoped to hear from teachers, senior school students and university students who could tutor children online. “It will be our priority to keep people, both those who are giving and those who are receiving, abiding by the latest safety regulations and social distancing advice,” she said. Ms Bartlett said Narelle and Mandy from Anglers Anchorage in Werribee South had allowed her to put a notice about the

community register in their shop window. So far, she had mostly heard from people wanting to help others. Ms Bartlett said she was worried some people needing aid had not contacted her, as they felt others would be more deserving. Ms Bartlett said she started the community register because, growing up in a rural area, she had seen groups such as the Country Women’s Association (CWA) and Country Fire Authority (CFA) assist others without asking for anything in return. Text Ms Bartlett on 0413 889 981 if you want to help out, or seek help from, the community register.

Wyndham’s population soars By Alesha Capone Wyndham has the second-fastest growing population in the nation, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics. he ABS last month released data showing that Wyndham’s population increased by 5.9 per cent during 2019. he municipality grew from 255,267 residents in 2018 to 270,487 residents in 2019. his included 4039 births, 4689 overseas

migrants and 6392 people who moved to Wyndham, from other parts of Australia. he ABS list for municipal population growth was topped by Camden in New South Wales, where the population grew by 7.9 per cent in 2019. Wyndham mayor Josh Gilligan said the municipality’s booming population meant the state and federal governments needed to step up their spending on essential infrastructure for the region.

“his is precisely why I will keep talking about why we need to be building a liveable city,” he said. “Federal government rakes in the taxes, the state holds all the responsibility and local government is let with all the problems.” According to Wyndham council, around one in ive residents has English ancestry and 20.3 per cent have Australian ancestry. In addition, 12.6 per cent have Indian ancestry, 6.3 per cent have Chinese ancestry, 6.2

per cent have Irish ancestry, 5.2 have Scottish ancestry, 5.1 per cent have Italian ancestry and 3.5 per cent have Filipino ancestry. More than 52 per cent of Wyndham residents were born in Australia, while 10.3 per cent were born in India and 3.5 per cent in New Zealand. Out of Wyndham’s residents who were born in India, Punjabi is the most commonly spoken language in their homes (spoken in 28 per cent of homes), followed by Hindi (25 per cent), Gujarati (11 per cent) and Telugu (10 per cent).

Support for King family he Wyndham community is throwing its arms around a family that includes three young boys who lost their mother to depression. Kristy King is being remembered as a “wonderful and genuine person” with a kind nature. he Manor Lakes mum to Brodie,11, Corey, 9, and eight-year-old Lochlyn died on March 22. Her close family friend Nicole Casaccio said that their families, who were neighbours, were “always there for each other when we needed a helping hand”. “Kristy was a beautiful kind-hearted soul who always went out of her way to help others,” Ms Casaccio told Star Weekly. “Always there with open ears to ofer advice and a smile on her face. “A beautiful mother to her three boys. hey were her life.” Ms Casaccio said Kristy and husband Kristian were adventurous and were “always looking forward to their next camping trip or ishing adventure with the family”. he Werribee Flames Basketball Club paid

respect to the King family posting on its Facebook page last week: “Our Flames family lost a beautiful soul and these three beautiful boys lost their mum.” Sister Linda Kelly said it had been “a long hard battle of depression” for Kristy. “She was a mother who loved her kids more than anything in the world, unfortunately, this disease got the better of her and won,” Ms Kelly said. Ms Kelly set up an online crowdfunding campaign towards a trust fund for the three boys that has already raised more than $17,000. “his goes to show what an amazing person Kristy was and how many lives and people [she] touched,” she said of the campaign. “he more money we raise, the more help we can give the boys for their future.” Kristy is survived by her husband Kristian and sons Brodie, Corey and Lochlyn along with their family dog Molly.

More than four acres of land is being offered for sale by tender. (Barry Plant Real Estate - Tarneit)

Neighbours join forces Four property owners have come together to ofer their adjoining Hoppers Crossing addresses for sale as one mega site. More than four acres of land, including four dwellings, at 575-583 Sayers Road is being ofered for sale by tender, with expressions of interest to close on May 5 (unless sold prior). Rick O’Halloran from Barry Plant Real Estate – Tarneit said he has been working since 2018 to put the sales project together. “It’s quite extraordinary, it’s not oten you get four property owners come together for something like this,” he said. “One or two of the vendors were already in the market themselves, [they] got talking to me and we’ve had some roundtable meetings, and one thing led to another.

“We’ve seen this sort of thing done in other suburbs of Melbourne, but I’m not sure if it has been done in Wyndham before.” Mr O’Halloran said the total land area being ofered for sale was 16,442 square metres with 102 metres of frontage along Sayers Road. “We’re thinking someone on a bigger scale might come in and take this (575-583 Sayers Road) and say, ‘let’s see what we can do with it.’ – that’s subject to council approval, of course,” Mr O’Halloran said. He said that the upcoming sale had generated interest from potential interstate buyers. Two of the Sayers Road vendors were owner-occupiers. Alesha Capone

SUPPORTLOCAL#InThisTogether

Wyndham open for business Now, more than ever, local businesses need the community’s support and Wyndham council is working hard to make this happen. Council’s website now hosts a full list of local businesses that are continuing to trade, providing an easy one-stop shop for residents. Wyndham mayor Cr Josh Gilligan, congratulated local businesses for adapting quickly to the new environment. “Everyone has had to show agility to adapt to this new environment, but businesses have had to be particularly innovative,” Cr Gilligan said. “At Wyndham City we are doing everything we can to support the 84,000 workers, local business owners and their families that depend on an active local economy in Wyndham.” he recently launched ‘Wyndham, We’re in this together’ social media campaign is using the hashtags #wyndhamtogether and #wyndhamopen to highlight how businesses are evolving and continuing to service the local community. “With Easter and Mother’s Day coming up, what better way to purchase your gits while supporting local businesses?” Cr Gilligan said. “To show your support and praise for local businesses, you can ‘like’ and share their social media posts to promote what they are ofering.” “he longer your money stays in Wyndham, the more it multiplies to make our economy stronger.” “For every $100 spent in the local economy, $67.16 stays … local, but the same amount of money spent on a non-Wyndham online site only retains $4.17.” “Your locally-spent dollars will have the knock-on efect of keeping local staf employed, and households aloat, while these health restrictions are in place.” For more information visit www.wyndham.vic.gov.au/wyndhamopen

The Social Sutra is continuing to operate with delivery options. (Supplied)

l l i t s e r ’ e w yes

Support Local Businesses Buying local helps businesses, helps our neighbours and keeps local jobs. For every $100 spent in the local economy, $67.16 stays in Wyndham

If you shop online from a non-Wyndham retailer only $4.17 stays here
