Healthier
choice on tap
By Helen Tatchell

Thirsty? You can now save money, and the environment, with a
new free drinking water fountain in Ballan.
Conveniently placed in the town’s CBD at A.A. McLean Reserve,
the ‘Be Smart Choose Tap’ project was unveiled last week, and it
does not just benefit the two-legged human species.
The fountain has a facility to fill up an empty bottle, to have a
slurp that is also wheelchair friendly, and the four-legged canines
and not left out, with a built-in bowl at ground level.
Central Highlands Water’s Managing Director, Mr Paul
O’Donohue and Moorabool Shire Mayor Cr Paul Tatchell officially
opened the new drinking water fountain as “part of an ongoing
program to enhance key public recreational spaces.”
“The drinking water fountain project is the result of a community
partnership between CHW and the Moorabool Council to
promote healthy living and encourage water as the drink of
choice,” Mr O’Donohue said.
Cr Tatchell said this is the first of a number of drinking water
fountains for Ballan.
“We’re giving the community the option to make a healthier
choice,” he said.
“Everything old is new again. Water fountains were everywhere
back in the day, it was the norm; now, soft drink has taken over.
“We must progress to drinking water from the tap again,” he
said.
Cr Tatchell said, “things we used to take for granted are now
back”.
“If fair dinkum, this is the future. I congratulate Central
Highlands Water on this initiative as it also helps with family cost
and the environment.”
As part of Education Week 2019 Central Highlands Water will
provide the local Ballan and district schools with a range of
educational fact sheets and activities highlighting the importance
of staying healthy and hydrated through drinking tap water.
St Brigid’s Primary School students Jack and Leo held a Q&A
session and said drinking water “keeps your body healthy and is
better for the environment.”
“You should drink 4-5 glasses of water a day,” Jack said.
And Jack has become a ‘swapper’, drinking water over soft drink
since last Christmas.
Mr O’Donohue said in Australia, “we spend more than $680
million each year on bottled water.”
“The sad reality is that more than 50 per cent of plastic bottles
end up in our landfills.”

Complex rating system
By Kate Taylor
It’s that time of year
again, when ratepayers
try to understand how the
amount they pay in rates
will be affected by their
property valuations.
This year, some ratepayers will have a rates bill increase of
50 per cent because their property valuation has gone up –
and in turn, others will go down to balance out to equal the
total rates revenue amount set for the shire.
“It’s a complex thing set by the government,” Moorabool
Mayor, Cr Paul Tatchell said.
The first part of understanding the relationship between
rates and property valuations is that while the rates increase
is capped at the level of inflation, the actual rates bills can
fluctuate greatly due to property values. CPI set for this year
is 2.5 per cent
The amount that is paid in rates goes to council to spend on
roads, infrastructure, rubbish collection etc – and it is a set
amount, $33 million this year, which is divided up unequally
amongst properties to add up to that final figure.
Properties that are worth more will pay more in rates and
properties that are worth less pay less in rates – if the total
rates revenue was a ‘pie’ and that amount doesn’t change,
property valuations do not mean there is more ‘pie’, they just
mean that a bigger piece of the pie is paid by people with
higher property values and smaller pieces of the pie are paid

The Bacchus Marsh Lawn Tennis Club, the name speaks for

their grass courts to All-Weather Mod Grass courts. Recently,
the dream become a reality.
President Nigel Bullen said, as a club, a small celebration
was held for the commencement of works.
“The redevelopment will occur on the three top bank grass
courts and include new lighting, and bring the total of all-
weather courts to ten,” he said.

by people with less valuable properties.
Cr Tatchell agreed with the pie analogy – but pointed
out it’s a system set out by a state government that doesn’t
give Moorabool anywhere near its fair share of funding to
then offset how much council has to spend on things like
infrastructure projects.
“In Moorabool we like to call it the ‘poor man’s pizza’; we‘d
like to call it a pie, but we can’t afford the crust. And our
government doesn’t know how to use the pizza cutter.”
The state government has a Valuer General to attach a value
to each property and the value is not the actual current
market price for a property – it’s the ‘could-be-worth’ figure
and not an ‘actually-is-now-worth’ figure, which means that
vacant land that can be developed is valued at what it would
be worth if it was fully developed, it’s potential value.
It gets even more complex, as Cr Tatchell explains, with the
differential rate.
“What the state government always neglects to mention is
that your highest differential rate can’t be any more than four
times your lowest. What it means is, they give dollar figures
for everybody and the maximum you can charge a mining
industry for example, then the problem is once you make
a differential rate, every time you lower it for pensions or
farmers or retirement villages or small business for regional
development, things like that to take the pressure off those
key areas, then you actually reduce the amount that those
higher ones pay because it can’t be more than four times as
much,” he said.
Cr Tatchell said there are a couple of points to make about
during winter, our three-night competitions and the
Wednesday morning ladies competitions to further expand.”
The club is 109-years old and boasts 210 members in the age
range of 5-85.
All-weather mod grass is an artificial synthetic surface
that can be used all year round and doesn’t need watering
or mowing. It is non-slip in the wet, quick drying and hard-
wearing. The forecast completion date is for end July 2019.
Funding for the project included:
$210,000 (approx.) - Moorabool Shire Council
$130,000 - Tennis Club Members
$100,000 - State Government
$ 80,000 - Loan from Tennis Australia

rates – firstly, “rates capping does not cap each individual rate
bill that the ratepayer pays, it caps the total rates revenue.”
Secondly, while some residential areas will have reduced
property valuations, many farms will have a huge increase
because of things like land-banking and developers able to
develop certain areas – and that some people might be rated
out of their properties.
“The reduced rates amounts will probably be residential
areas that haven’t gone up in value - the people that will be
hit hardest are ones that have shot up like rural living, and
commercial, but there are some areas that haven’t gone up,
areas that don’t have sewerage and things like that.
“But someone who has inherited the family home, and their
rates bill goes up 50 per cent, and they might not even be
able to work, they are probably going to be rated out of their
property. It’s a terrible system.
“In this country we talk up economic development - then
tax the crap out of it. We talk about giving people a fair go -
then we tax the crap out of them. They want people to move
to the bush, but they don’t want to put any infrastructure in,
and because people move to the bush it puts property prices
up and increases rates. We need natural gas and sewerage
and water, and we pay a premium for that and not only that,
the farms that are providing the food are getting the crap
taxed out of them. It’s a terrible system.”
Council has appropriate measures in place if anyone is
experiencing financial hardship in regard to rates notices

Western Water is calling on its customers to provide advice on how it charges for water and
sewer services.
Last week, 12,000 randomly selected Western Water customers received an invitation in the
mail, inviting them to register their interest to take part in the community panel.
Graham Holt, General Manager, Customer, Community Relations and Operations, said that
customers should check their mail for their invite and take the opportunity to “have their
say”.
“The deliberations will provide our customers with a great opportunity to share their views
on how Western Water charges for its services,” he said.
“It will enable Western Water to ensure our tariff structure reflects customer values and
priorities,” he said.
The representative community panel will consist of around 30 members, chosen by an
independent recruitment agency.
The panel will meet several times over June and July, where they will be presented with
detailed information on the tariff structure.
The community panel will then be asked to provide recommendations to Western Water.
Community members can find out more about the project by visiting haveyoursay.

The deadline for submissions is Friday 7 June 2019.

Driving with no
licence, twice
By Caitlin Bewley
(2nd Yr Swinburne Uni)
A man who proceeded to drive a motor
vehicle only a few months after his licence
was initially suspended, attended court
to face multiple charges before Magistrate
Gregory Robinson.
Simon Fuller appeared in the Bacchus
Marsh Magistrate’s court on Friday 17 May
to plead guilty to two separate charges of
driving whilst suspended and one charge of
speeding.
Fuller was seen by police on 2 November
2018, travelling west on Greigs road in
Melton where he lost control of his vehicle
Mallory Kitching-Cruickshank on her Andalusian horse Caballeriza Cavalier. and collided with another, the court heard,
unlicensed at the time and his permit had
been suspended in September 2018 due to a
loss of demerit points.
The prosecutor said Fuller told police at the
scene of the accident he “hadn’t received
anything from Vic Roads [about the state of
his licence]”.
In a further incident last year, on November
21, Fuller was travelling along Grey street
in Darley where he was allegedly travelling
71km/h in a 50km/h zone.
Fuller was subsequently intercepted
by police, to which they discovered his
licence was suspended and he had his car
impounded.
Fuller was convicted and fined $1200 for his
driving whilst suspended charges and $322

A young Bacchus Marsh
horsewoman was awarded
one of the top-spots at a
prestigious national cham-
pionship event in South
Australia last month.
Mallory Kitching-Cruick-
shank, 17, was awarded
the title of National Junior
Champion Handler with her
horse Caballeriza ‘Cavvi’
Cavalier, reclaiming the po-
sition for the second year in
a row, as well as the National
Junior Equitation Cham-
pion at the AHAA National
Championships in McLaren
Vale, South Australia, from
12-14 April.
Mallory focuses on riding
Andalusian horses, which
are traditionally from Spain,
and competed in dressage,
handler, Spanish horse and
three-day competition, be-
ing the only junior compet-
ing in most classes.
For Mallory, who started
riding just five years ago,
a love of riding runs in the
family.
“My mum spent many
years riding and performing
on Andalusians at the old
Bacchus Marsh Lion Park
and the stories she told me
about them made me want
to own my own Andalu-
sian,” she said.
Her experience this year is
one that she says she “will
not forget”.
“When I was awarded the
National Junior Champion
again, I have to admit I cried,
so did my mum.
“It was very emotional and
I’m so proud of my horse
and myself, he did amaz-
ing for an old boy and got
extra apples in his feed that
night,” she said.
“I wouldn’t have got there
without the support I re-
ceived, not just from Mum
and Keith but from my spon-
sors; I have to give them a
huge thank you, they all
made it possible.”
While she is currently tak-
ing a gap-year to become a
riding instructor, Mallory
hopes to continue her streak
of competing, and further
her passion for riding.
Her determination is to be
admired.
“It may take a while, but
my goal is to one day ride in
the Olympics and the World
Equestrian Games, and I’m
determined to achieve it,”
she said.
Active April above average
Did you get active in April?
If you did, you would be part of the 33 per cent increase from 2018 who participated from
the Moorabool Shire, in the 2019 Premier’s Active April program.
Moorabool Mayor, Cr Paul Tatchell said it is pleasing to see many people taking part in
Active April.
“Council supports this initiative every year, along with other health and wellbeing cam-
paigns such as This Girl Can. It’s pleasing to see increasing rates of physical activity in the
Shire,” he said.
The State Government confirmed a record 130,211 Victorians of all ages and abilities took
the pledge to ramp up their level of fitness and physical activity in the 2019 Premier’s Ac-
tive April, 839 people participated from Moorabool.
Labor Member for Melton, Steve McGhie, congratulated everyone in Moorabool Shire
who had signed up to the Premier’s Active April and “spread the word on the importance
of a healthy lifestyle.”
“Every year we continue to set the bar even higher and it is so encouraging that even more
and more people in Moorabool Shire are getting active more often,” he said.
Of those 130,000 participants across the State, 80,000 women registered, making up 60 per
cent of participants, out-doing their male counterparts once again.
“Active April has been an outstanding success and I challenge even more Victorians to
step it up and keep up the good work in May and beyond,” Mr McGhie said.
A record 1761 Victorian schools and 854 Victorian workplaces registered as teams, exer-
cising daily by walking to school, riding to work or visiting the gym during their lunch
breaks.

Prosecutor, Senior Constable Lisa

was spotted by police on Grant street, where
he was subsequently intercepted.

Letters to the Editor
Email: news@themooraboolnews.com.au
Dear Editor,
The whole idea of a cat cur-
few in our case is wrong.
(M/News 14 May)
My family and I live in the
urban area of Ballan. Our
cat, Cindy is a beloved fam-
ily pet. She is well looked
after. We feed her every day.
She is not a feral cat that
hunts prey by necessity or
lives in a largely natural
bush environment.
Most of the problems of cats
killing native animals are
because of feral, not domes-
tic, cats. There are few native
bird species in our neigh-
bourhood, and the ones that
do exist such as magpies and
cockatoos are not suitable
cat prey because of their size
(in any case, even with the
current lack of a cat curfew
they are numerous). Very oc-
casionally does Cindy catch
a bird, and if she does it is
usually a (non-native) spar-
row. She more often catches
mice.
Now and again Cindy fights
with other cats to protect her
territory, but this is not a
problem the council needs
to regulate - it only involves
a couple of minutes of howl-
ing every few months, and
we usually chase away the
other cat and let her back
into the house.
Cindy is a partly-nocturnal
animal who needs to go in
and out of the house into our
garden, including at night.
She’s no guinea pig and
confining her will be like
confining a person. She will
scratch at our bedroom door
all night to let her out of the
house.
It will ultimately achieve no
net environmental benefit
(and possibly a worse one,
if she no longer catches mice
and sparrows), while put-
ting her under stress.
It will put my family under
stress too when we cannot
legally let her out.

Cats have been companions
for humans for thousands
of years. Cats provide lots
of companionship/psycho-
logical benefits to people, not
just to families like ours but
to otherwise lonely single
and/or older people, often
women. By making it harder
to keep a cat, a cat curfew
would impact these positive
relationships.
The cat curfew is miscon-
ceived. If it has to come in
at all, it should not apply to
cats living with residents in
urban areas.

Dear Editor,
I would like to commend
Councillor Keogh’s forward
thinking with regard to a
tip voucher trial in Moora-
bool Shire, (M/News 21 May
2019)
It is interesting to note the
second part of the proposal
for a $25 fee on all rate no-
tices. Some questions.
1. How is this fee on all
rate notices fair when not
all including myself use the
transfer station except for
recycling?
2. What is the real benefit or
incentive when it currently
costs $30 for a resident with
photo identification to dump
at a transfer station (station
wagon or utility)?
I think the $5 saving (in real
terms) will have no effect on
illegal dumping.
Again, I commend Cr Ke-
ogh for his forward think-
ing but let us be real and
provide a real saving for the
community.
Maybe, just maybe, it might
help to reduce illegal rub-
bish dumping.

What happened to all the studies we did during the Woolpack
fiasco? There were several done by both sides. There were
also several plausible solutions provided AND costed!!!
The ONLY reason this has not been done is because
the Moorabool Shire Council and VicRoads were pissed off
they lost the Woolpack Rd appeal so they took their “ball
and bat” and went home. - Scott Klauber
Just bring on Woolpack road already! - Danny Dragic
Rather than doing the obvious, let’s just pop it through a

All that $$$ paid just for a ‘study’ which won’t happen in my
lifetime. - Debbie Nelson

insurance and are required
to follow REIV guidelines
to always act ethically, hon-
estly and fairly. This is ‘The
Difference’ which an REIV
Member brings to your
property transaction and is
what makes an REIV Mem-
ber unique.
The REIV’s new Choose a
Member online tool can help
you to narrow down your
search. It’s the first resource
on the Victorian market that
is not influenced by referral
fees, priority listings or other
incentives to rank one agent
over another. In other words,
there is no way to manipu-
late the order that agents and
agencies are presented.
You can even tailor your
search to find the best pro-
fessional with experiences
matched to your needs: for
example, you can see who
has the best record on sell-
ing three-bedroom houses
in your town.
Subdivision Zone Urban
permit Growth
If you search for an agency
with experience selling
three-bedroom houses in
Mildura, for example, the
REIV’s Choose a Member
tool will provide eight re-
sults for agencies in the
area that have sold this type
of property in the past 12
months. It will provide the
number of sales, date of most
recent result, link to agency
profile and link to their re-
cent results.
Likewise, if you searched
for agents who have sold
four bedroom houses in An-
glesea, you’d be presented
with two local agencies and
if you searched for agents
that have sold two bedroom
units in Sale, the Choose a
Member tool would turn
up three relevant agencies.
Eighty per cent of Victorian
agencies are REIV members
so there’s plenty to choose
from.

Cobras ready for
Devils rematch
by Todd Whelan
Bacchus Marsh has put lo-
cal rivals Darley on notice
ahead of their Round Seven
meeting on June 8, with a
convincing 38-point win
over Sunbury at Maddingley
Park last Saturday. The win
moves the Cobras back into
the top six at the expense of
a disappointing Lions outfit,
whose horror run of losses
on the road (10) and against
Bacchus Marsh (9) continues.
Cobras coach Peter Davey
was thrilled with his boy’s
effort in the aftermath and
cited the win as a major con-
fidence builder for the club.
“We’ll take a lot out of to-
day,” he said.
“Sunbury are a good side
with some serious talent in
the midfield and up forward.
“We won the day thanks
to a really even spread of
sound performances.”
The Cobras set up the win
in the second term, turn-
ing an eight-point deficit at
the three-minute mark into
a 35-point advantage at the
main break after piling on

six unanswered goals (seven
behinds) with the breeze.
But Davey, in his wisdom,
credited an earlier period as
the catalyst.
“We set ourselves up for a
good afternoon in the first
(quarter) by kicking four
goals into the wind,” he said.
In form defender Tom
Wardell has been a real find
for the Cobras this year and
again featured prominently
in the post-match discussion.
“Tom Wardell right now is
in ‘Team of the Year’ form,”
Davey said.
“He’s been a rock back there
for us and was probably our
best again today.”
Wardell wasn’t the only de-
fender on Davey’s apprecia-
tion radar.
“Daniel Veldon and Tom
Brownbridge won the key
post battles, while our small-
er/medium size defenders
held their own against some
real quality opposition,” he
said.
The Cobras have corrected
on their early season experi-
ment of Aaron Willitts (four
goals) as a high half-foward
and have returned him to
his most effective post - deep
forward. The BFNLs leading
goalkicker in 2018 has had
near 20 shots on goal in his
last two games for a nine
goal return.
Usual suspects Daniel Bur-
ton, Jake Owen and Nicholas
Stuhldrier were instrumen-
tal with their offence while
new recruit Jake DeWinter
is looking more at home in

his mid/forward role. The
midfield group were forced
to work double time on the
back of limited rotations
through injuries to Billy
Griffiths (ribs) and Liam
Mullen (hamstring).
“Our mids were brave,”
Davey said.
“And we felt that we could
score with every forward 50
entry - our forwards provid-
ed first class effort at every
contest.”
While Griffiths and Mullen
are unlikely to front against
the Devils on June 8, the Co-
bras will welcome back key
inside mid Harrison King
from a hamstring strain that
has sidelined him for four
matches. Davey was meas-
ured in his appraisal of the
Cobras ability to execute
on his new game plan but
couldn’t hold back on the ex-
citement that looms ahead of
their next assignment after
the bye.
“We took another step for-
ward today,” Davey said.
“But our (arrival) statement
will be in two weeks (against
Darley).”

Happy Devils Bewley

‘home’ a fortress
By Todd Whelan

Darley has responded swiftly to its

disappointing away loss to Melton with a
21-point win over North Ballarat City at
Darley Park last Saturday.
In blustery conditions the Devils put their
foot down early to open up a match winning
32-point advantage at the first change to
virtually close the door on any thoughts of
an upset. The Devils kicked six unanswered
goals including the opener that took just
three possessions and all but 30 seconds off
the clock to achieve.
It would be the Devils eleventh win in a
row at home (last loss Rd 2, April 28 2018
v Melton) and is currently the longest
of any club in the competition. The win
consolidates the Devils (4-1) third placing on
the BFL ladder after five rounds, one game
behind the unbeaten East Point and surprise
packet Redan.
While Devils coach Heath Scotland was
pleased with the response asked of his
players, he conceded there was room for
further improvement.
“We were solid without being special,” he
said.
“We contributed to five or six goals of
theirs with some poor decision making and
execution.”
The most pleasing aspect of the Devils
performance was the ability of their forward
line to gel with selfless cohesion. Key forward
Jake Edwards (four goals) had a mountain of
space to work with and proved a handful for
reliable City defender Ryan Hobbs who was
given little chance to defend on the back of
some excellent delivery. The discrepancy of
marks inside 50 to the Devils advantage (17-
5) told the story.
Darley midfielders Luther Baker (two goals),
Nick and Brian Graham (one goal) were
dominant for the most part, their influence
especially by foot was significant. Captain
Shane Page’s role was typically important off
half back while Jackson Carrick continues to
thrive with his recent run of form. These two
were largely responsible for repeat rebounds
in transition that help set up a superior
forward 50 count (54-46).
Ever consistent defender Darren Leonard
nullified key City forward Will Young for
a third successive time. The City/Devils
meetings would not be pencilled in on
Young’s calendar as a ‘one to would look
forward to’ occasion. The former Adelaide
Crow draftee struggled for time and space
all afternoon and finished with just the one
(late dribble) goal.
While the Devils ruck stocks looking
forward remain cause for concern, Scotland
was pleased with call up ruckman Brad
Spiteri’s commitment and the way he stuck
to his task against City’s ‘big unit’ Cam
McCullum.
“Spiteri’s effort was pleasing,” he said.
“While he gave away considerable size, I
was happy with the way he stuck to his guns
and competed.”
Scotland acknowledged a spike in the
overall attitude of the playing group had an
obvious impact on the result.
“We were definitely up and about, especially
early,” he said.
“Our ball use, certainly forward of centre
was a lot better (than against Melton).”
The Devils travel west up the highway for
the first time this season for a Round Six
meeting with Ballarat (0-1-4). The Swans
have shown a clear preference to playing in
Ballarat with honourable losses to Sebastopol
(21 points), East Point (won two quarters)
and a draw last week with Lake Wendouree
(should have won, led by six goals).
Scotland is already thinking about Ballarat
and has no intentions of taking this game
lightly.
“We need to back up on our good results,”
he said.
“Our next two games are away - we realise
the importance of getting the four points this
weekend before a rematch with ‘The Marsh’
who are in good form.”

debuts in AFL
By Todd Whelan
Darley Junior Football Club product Brett
Bewley made his much anticipated AFL
debut for Fremantle in front of family and
friends, in the Dockers nail-biting one point
win over Brisbane at Optus Stadium last
Sunday.
The 24-year old was justly rewarded for his
relentless dedication, drive and hard work
following his recent selection (Pick 59) in the
AFL national draft. The raking ‘left footer’
joined the Dockers after five seasons with
Williamstown in the VFL.
Bewley lined up on a wing and finished
with 11 disposals (five kicks, six handballs)
with a 91% efficiency rating - his poise and
measured delivery by foot noted by AFL
great Dermott Brereton.
“For a player to hit the target over
an opposition defender in traffic was
exceptional from the first gamer,” he said.
Brereton also mentioned on his Fox Footy
commentary that Bewley was responsible
for setting up a shot on goal later, for his
work in defence.
For the Bewley family, the trip was one they
won’t be forgetting in a hurry.
“We’re very proud,” his father Ross said. Brett Bewley is all smiles after his ‘dream-
day’ match, celebrated with a ‘Gatorade
“He has worked very hard for this moment.”
