ART EXPLOSION TO CREATE A COLOUR CITY CHRISTMAS
with BOB HOLLAND
Changing the speed limit in the Orange CBD to 40kms an hour is a current topic of conversation and it’s sure to get plenty of attention. I for one, think it’s unnecessary but what amuses me is the fact that Council is giving the public a say in the matter. Why? What a useless waste of time. Blind Freddy knows that there’ll be some for, some against and overall, only a handful of the community will say anything. At the end of the day Council will do what Council wants to do and even if they claim to base their decision on public opinion, it’s still anybody’s guess if it’s a good decision. Surely our Councillors can decide on this without seeking public opinion, and even if they are incapable of making a decision on their own, most of them should be in touch with a good cross section of the community anyway.
Pop-up art shows could be the Christmas miracle to help save Orange’s main street from a bleak 2020 yuletide. Art exhibitions in Orange’s hard-hit retail sector could provide a colourful festive season; under plans by distinguished Orange-based painter, Hank Spirek. Hank is taking his idea for pop-up art exhibitions to revitalise our central business district to Orange Council. Orange Mayor, Councillor Reg Kidd is excited by the proposal and has invited Hank to address an upcoming Council meeting to get the plan on track. He sees greater exposure and utilisation of Orange’s vibrant arts scene as another string in the bow to attracting tourist visitors to the Colour City. “When you go to Paris, say, you go for the food, the wine, the
architecture, the culture, but also the art galleries, Orange could be the same,” Cr Kidd said. “People want the full tourism experience ,” he added. Hank believes opening-up vacant CBD shopfronts could provide our coronavirus-impacted arts scene with fresh opportunities and create a vibrant and colourful industry that would attract thousands of visitors to Orange. “I’ve got five groups and seven individual painters interested… I know a lot of artists looking for studio space, we just don’t have the studio space!” Hank said. With long-term local government experience, he is happy to act as the go-between for artist seeking to promote their works to a wider audience.

FOR ORANGE
A 40k speed limit in the CBD to me is neither here nor there, what is far more important is doing something about the traffic issues we have in the CBD such as the intersection right outside Council’s front door on the corner of Byng Street and Lords Place. If ever there was an intersection in Orange that needed some attention, this must surely be it. Forget 40 kms speed limits and spend some time making intersections like this one safe, it’s LONG overdue and it’s right outside your front door for cry it out loud! Hearts for Orange is going great guns and I’m pleased to say we’re finally doing what our Council and others have forever failed to do, we’re supporting and advertising our local retailers and why shopping in Orange is such a good thing to do. Over recent weeks and months Hearts for Orange has sought financial support from our Council for the program without success, and I can now tell you that based on our recent experiences, we will no longer be asking Council for any help. It’s clear now that they do not have the same ‘heart’ for our non-hospitality retailers as we do. Keep watching OC Life for what’s coming up, it’s going to be great!
We need to “better” SUPPORT OUR LOCAL BUSINESSES. Paying lip service won’t cut it, we need to live it! All of us, from our local government, our civic leaders, our major businesses right down to our neighbours and ourselves, we all need to spend EVERY DOLLAR POSSIBLE here in Orange - no excuses!

very briefly My future’s so bright, I gotta’ wear shades…
Vienna’s loss is Orange’s gain with a stranded soprano and her pianist husband stuck in Australia to perform in the first major event at Orange Civic Theatre since COVID-19 restrictions began in March.
WHO’S A COOL BABY, THEN? Little Mackie Quick was recently pictured with his aunty, Sameria Fernando, waiting for the bus in Summer Street.
The theatre is presenting internationallyacclaimed soprano Eleanor Lyons and her conductor/pianist husband Vladimir Fanshil on Saturday, October 24 in Wandering Hearts.
“He didn’t like the sun in his eyes, so we got him these. He loves them!” Aunty Sameria laughed.
Aussie prosecco wine is doin’ orright O.S. While much of Australia’s export market has been hit by the bans on international travel, one local winery has had success selling locally-grown Prosecco wine. See Saw Wines at Cargo have recently exported four pallets of their organic Prosecco to Sweden. “Our exported product is called “Ausecco” and we are thrilled to have received such a positive response from the importer and we hope the relationship continues,” a spokesperson for the winery said. “It will be sold in bottle shops over there. We are the only ones to have planted Prosecco in the region and it is performing as a fantastic variety for us,” the spokesperson added.
STRANDED SOPRANO LAUNCHES CIVIC THEATRE BACK IN ACTION
TALKING OF K(OALA)-POP CLASSICS…
The performing couple is usually based in Vienna and travel around the world to perform but, for now (due to COVID-19), they are stranded in Australia and have taken the opportunity to give recitals together around NSW and the ACT. Orange City Council’s Services Policy Committee Chair, Cr Scott Munro said Orange would happily take in the “stranded” couple and host them for a night at the theatre.
The Australian Koala Foundation (AKF) recently partnered with French singer songwriter, Mikael J Hacken on a song dedicated to raising awareness of koalas and their plight.
“Given the restrictions there are limited seats available which will make for perhaps, a more intimate experience,” Cr Munro.
The song — “I’ve Seen Them All (The Koala’s Song)” — aims to highlight the dangers that koalas face whilst providing supporters with an entertaining audio and visual experience.
“This is a rare opportunity under extraordinary circumstances that Vladimir and Eleanor are available to come to Orange.”
“The song is wonderfully composed and is a beautiful tribute to koalas,” Chair of the Australian Koala Foundation, Deborah Tabart OAM, said.
The program the couple is presenting includes favourite opera arias, undiscovered masterpieces by Gliere, Grieg’s Six Songs op.48, Rachmaninov’s Elegie (for solo piano), and a piece composed especially for them by Australian composer Elena Kats-Chernin called Wandering Hearts.
“It brings to focus the threats to koalas and highlights the importance of a Koala Protection Act, which would ensure Koalas and their habitat are protected by law,” Ms Tabart said. Mikael J Hacken, composer and singer of ‘I’ve Seen Them All’ (The Koala’s Song) added: “as a koala lover, it is incredibly important to spread the word the koala is in trouble.”
RUSSELL’S CONGA PLAYING IS DEFINITELY “THE REAL THING” Musically-minded local Russell Morris shares a name with the iconic Aussie singer from last century whose unique hits included “The Real Thing” and “Wings of an Eagle”. "Our" Russell was spotted recently deeply-absorbed in a performance with his beloved conga drums in Robertson Park. “I come here and practice sometimes, I’m just out enjoying the spring weather,” he said briefly lifting his earphones. “I’m playing along to the music, Latin percussion,” he explained. And how did he get the same name as one of the 1970s iconic Aussie rockers (pictured left). “My mum was pregnant and she was at the airport and she heard Russell Morris being called over the PA and she thought, ‘that’s a nice name’ so I got stuck with it,” he explained.

Cr Kidd pointed-out that his aunt Jan Bush, as cultural officer for Orange in the past, had established one of the first private art galleries in the district named after the Ballet Company, Sadler’s Wells. The Gallery in the 1970s, he said, exhibited Australian bush masters including Pro Hart and Jack Absalom.

art to show in the shops, we should look at it,” Cr Kidd added. “We have to ask Council and the artists; ‘are you willing to support it?’ Each group would have ownership,” he said. Mr Spirek believes that that the shopfront idea should not become a permanent feature of the main street, but something focused on major religious and cultural festivals, such as Christmas and FOOD Week. “We could do something for each festival, there’s plenty of work available from good artists looking for somewhere to display,” he said.

The “Renew Newcastle” project offered minimal rents to artists, artisans and craftspeople for pop-up shops in empty shop-fronts and the results were very impressive. “Renew” proved a catalyst for central Newcastle — suffering the same pressures on main street as traditional traders are throughout the world — creating change from the ground-up. From when the project started, 82 properties were leased by about 260 participants with the majority of these going on to operate successful businesses. Renew Newcastle was based around making a city work for people with creativity which encouraged experimentation and innovation. Benefits included the creation of jobs and skills development; volunteer engagement; mitigation of blight; improved business confidence and improved regional brand value. Renew removed the barriers to entry, lowered the cost and complexity of participation and encouraged artistic risk by allowing people to try new creative ideas.

FOOD INTO “FOGO” BINS CUTS-BACK ON OUR LANDFILL About two semi-trailers of extra landfill could be saved each week if Orange residents put all their food and other scraps into their “FOGO” green bins, it has been estimated. Locals are being urged to better-utilise the “food and garden organics” service to not only lower landfill, but also to reduce methane gasses from the matter going into landfill. The eight-year-old local green-lid weekly bin service though has been declared a success by diverting thousands of tonnes of organic matter into an advanced heattreated composting program that utilises the treated waste as an economic resource. Orange’s system for turning food and garden waste into compost has been operating successfully since 2013, Orange Mayor, Councillor Reg Kidd said proudly. He said that Orange City Council had been at the forefront of an initiative that, at the time, faced opposition. “We were the first council in Central West NSW to get into recycling. We were instrumental in setting up ‘Netwaste’,” he said of the voluntary regional waste group formed 25 years ago to provide collaborative approaches to waste and resource management. “Introducing significant changes like this means we have to deal with resistance and complaints from various sectors, but we’ve stood by our environmental credentials,” he said.

The scraps can then end-up on the resident’s floor as they’re carried to the green bin.” Between weekly collections, he acknowledged, there could be a slight smell from the waste in the green bin. “Some residents use lawn clippings to make layers between food scraps and that can deal with a smell. Some residents take the extra step of wrapping kitchen scraps in newspaper before placing it in their green bin,” he added. Once a collection truck delivers its load of food and garden waste to the Ophir Road centre, all material is tipped onto a large open floor where staff manually pick through it, removing potential contaminants before its implementation. “When the such as plastic bags.

It has been estimated About two semi-trailers of landfill could be saved each week if Orange residents put all their food scraps into their “FOGO” green bins. Just under five thousand of tonnes of food and garden waste a year are picked up in weekly collections from people’s homes along with their general waste and recycling bins. The waste is shredded and taken in enclosed trucks to a Council site on Euchareena Road where an industrial-scale compost production plant creates highquality compost. Cr Kidd said, that, the treated final organic product is now an asset, and not a liability. “That compost is then sold to farmers, home gardeners and commercial suppliers for use in agriculture,” he said. He explained — while any and all organic matter is generally-suitable for the greenlidded bins — that: “Because the compost is made to an industry standard, it can’t contain plastic.” He added that Council studied different models for their organic recycling service

Books are back as parent’s pastimes are now in vogue
Phillip Schwebel from Collins Booksellers have had a pretty good lockdown. “We’ve been here 20 years, and this has been one of our best.”
Books, puzzles, and games are back as stay-at-home families have rediscovered the placid pleasures of old-fashioned leisure.
“People are into reading books again, I know it’s been hard for many businesses, but we are the exception.”
For an industry that many believed would barely see-in the new millennium; Orange’s only-dedicated bookstore, Collins Booksellers, have had a pretty good lockdown.
“We’ve been looking at ways to adapt; we now have free home delivery, and we developed our website, just to make it easy for them,” he added.
“We’ve been here 20 years, and this has been one of our best,” Phillip Schwebel said. “Books have really taken-off again,” he added. While the start of the lockdown in late March saw a quiet period, since then it was as if everyone wanted to snuggle-up with the underrated pleasures of a good read. “For the first couple of weeks, it went really quiet, and it was like ‘Oh well, we’ll have a couple of weeks off, that would be good,’ but since then books have really takenoff,” he said.
He said that — like many small retailers — the challenges of the two-month lockdown had forced them to take a creative look at how to survive the “new normal”.
While many shoppers were initially anxious about spending during the economic slowdown caused by the coronavirus, their strength in children’s literature helped get them through. “We’ve always concentrated on kid’s books and, when people didn’t have much money, they still spent on their kids, it’s a good market for us,” Phillip explained. He said though that sales have been healthy across the range, not just for children’s literature but to gardening, cooking, lifestyle — fiction and non-fiction — with
prospects for a good Christmas. “This is the time of year when all the big books are coming-out,” he said. “JK Rowling — Craig Silvey has a new book coming-out — Matthew Reilly, he always does well, Trent Dalton, I think it’s going to be very big,” he said. It’s not only the books, Philip says brightly, his sidelines are also rushing off the shelves: “Jigsaws, puzzles, and games are all going crazy,” he added. The unprecedented lockdown to contain the spread of the coronavirus pandemic, he believes, has brought back a lifestyle lost in the hectic rush of the 21st century. “People are in hibernation; they can’t travel overseas so they are coming to the country. “They live in Sydney and they drop-in and say, ‘we don’t have a bookstore in our suburb,’ and they want something to read while they are here,” he said. “It’s been very good for us,” Phillip concluded.
Lockdown isolation revives old-style puzzles and games It’s a worldwide phenomenon being shared in Orange, people in lockdown rediscovering old-style indoor games, puzzles, and books enjoyed by their grandparents.
and home-learning books as they prepared for a spell in isolation. In Britain, sales of fiction rose by a third while children’s education went up 234 per cent to the third highest level on record. Puzzle books, handicrafts and true crime also saw sharp rises.
In the theme of isolation, big-sellers include classic titles like Gabriel García Márquez’s “One Hundred Years of Solitude” Classic books by authors like Jane Austen and “Love in the Time of Cholera”, Toni and Charles Dickens, board games like Morrison’s “Beloved”, F Scott Fitzgerald’s Monopoly and Cluedo, and classic top“The Great Gatsby”, Sylvia Plath’s “The Bell quality jigsaw puzzles, are all now back in Jar”, and the American classic of a man vogue. “It really takes a lot of attention and focus. finding himself while living in isolation in And that can be very healthy in terms of, I’ll Psychologists explain that, with so much the wilds, “Walden”. just say, distraction.” uncertain news, inability to travel outside Sales by world leader game-maker their State, home isolation, and extra time Tips from the Facebook group “Jigsaw Ravensburger have also risen nearly 400 on their hands, people are seeking to “lose Puzzlers” for first-time puzzlers include: per cent over the pandemic period. themselves” in activities that absorb their Tackle the edges first; sort out non-edge attention away from their own lives.

Psychologist Dr Marny Lishman says that there’s a growing hunger for activities that “force” people to really engage in the present moment. “And that’s what jigsaw puzzles do; they promote everyday mindfulness in which people can set aside time, focus on the activity without distractions, and engage in creativity totally in the moment,” Dr Lishman said. Old-style board games, relegated to the back-shed by most Australians as unwanted gifts, are now being dusted-off and enjoyed, often for the first time, around the kitchen table. Classic games like Monopoly, Cluedo, Scrabble, and Uno, have been complemented by new entries such as “Beat the Parents”, and “Harry Potter Trivial Pursuit”. The hope is that, with restrictions now easing, the re-learned recreational habits that so comforted and delighted previous generations, won’t again give-away to our zombie-like addiction to smart-phones, tablets, and the latest news about Kim Kardashian!

CANOBOLAS TENDERS FOR MOUNTAIN BIKE CIRCUIT Tenders were to close Friday for an environmental assessment of plans to build a network of mountain bike trails on Mount Canobolas with at least one applicant seeking an extension to the process. Orange City Council has called tenders for detailed design of the project and to investigate the environmental impact of the proposed network of trails. Local mountain bike enthusiast Rod Farrell said that there is no reason that mountain bike riding can’t co-exist with environmental values on the Mount. “You’ve got the 94km Wangetti Trail that’s in a World-Heritage-listed area of Far-North Queensland; that’s a mixed-use bike and walking trail, so it’s wider, but that’s approved,” he said. “Mostly mountain bike tracks are only about 90cm wide,” he said. “There’s two basic trails, ‘tech’ and ‘flow’; it’s about accessibility,” he said, adding that the Mt Canobolas circuit will be designed for riders of varying ability and competency. “It will be designed so that anyone can rock-up and ride,” he said. Consulting for one of the consortiums bidding for the Council tender, he said
Local mountain bike enthusiast Rod Farrell said that there is no reason that mountain bike riding can’t co-exist with environmental values on the Mount.
that at least one of the groups bidding had asked for an extension of the tender period which was to close Friday.
Orange Mayor, Cr Reg Kidd said that now is the time to get down to the nuts and bolts of the project.
He said that environmental concerns will be at the forefront of any track development on the unique sub-alpine biological and ecological “island” that Mt Canobolas represents.
“We’ve had a concept plan out for discussion for some time now, but it’s great to see us getting to the next stage of environmental assessment.
“Our consortium has nine individuals and only two are committed mountain bike representatives. The rest have environmental, heritage, or science expertise,” he explained. “They’re all independent and will meet the criteria for the process.” He said that the winning consultants need to keep in mind the key elements of the project. “Firstly, they have to satisfy all the environmental considerations around the project. “What we want, is to define where the trails can go, how long they can be, and what type of trails we can build.” He said that any development will be both environmentally-sound but will also have the potential for attracting large numbers of new visitors to the district.
MOUNTAIN BIKING FOR THE BEGINNER
“Nothing’s going to be built if it doesn’t measure up to a vigorous independent assessment. We need this level of shovelready detail in order to gain departmental approvals and attract government funding.” “As you’d expect there’s been a variety of views across the community about mountain bike trails on the mountain. It is clear to me that people who build trails professionally, know how to do it efficiently, to keep any environmental impact to a minimum. “Mountain bike riders are people who enjoy spending time out in the natural environment, and they want to protect what’s special about that environment. I’m confident a design can be found, along the lines of what was explored in the concept plan, that will strike the right balance, and let more people enjoy will the mountain has to offer,” he added.
Mountain biking involves two basic trail types: “Flow” (downhill) and “Tech” (more complex, technical trails). They are also created in two ways; “hand-cut trails” and “machine-built trails”. Most trails, however, use a combination of both production methods. Hand-cut usually start narrower than machine-built (most machine-built trails start at around 90cm width but are wider through the corners). However, due to use, nearly all trails eventually reduce their width over time sometimes to as narrow as 25cm. As a generalisation, the grading for trails uses the same colour-coding system utilised for snow-skiing slopes. That is, Greens are for the beginners, Blues are intermediate, Blacks are for advanced riders and Red are for professionals (or the overly-ambitious and soon to be in hospital!)

“You’ve only got to look at the experience of the township of Derby in Tasmania, where the development of a mountain bike hub has sent tourism numbers through the roof. Tens of thousands of riders are now visiting Derby and businesses have adapted to support that direction. For Orange it would be a diversification of what we have to offer,” he concluded. The earlier concept design suggested about half the trail network could be located in the Mt Canobolas State Conservation Area (managed by National Parks & Wildlife Service), with the remaining half located within State Forests (managed by NSW Forestry Corporation). The proposal is that there would be a world-class network of mountain biking trails built on Mt Canobolas. The mountain biking trails would be a blend of ‘Easy’ rated trails and trails rated as ‘More Difficult’, with optional ‘Very Difficult’ lines for advanced riders. It’s proposed that all the trails will be linked through a stacked loop design that can be accessed from both the trail head and the summit.
Bikes are most easily-categorised by the amount of suspension “travel”; the shorter the “travel” is, the more pedal-efficient a bike is. While these bikes are capable downhill, they are best-suited to the easier-graded trails (such as greens and blues). The other end of the spectrum is long-travel bikes which are downhill bikes that don’t pedal well at all but move well downhill. The proposed track layout for the Mount Canobolas circuit is a so-called “stacked loop” which resemble the interconnected Olympic rings working their way up the hill. Riders pedal-up to a junction (where one ring meets another, then a rider can choose to go further-up or back-down.) The more technically-difficult trails are usually harder to get to, so the concept creates a natural filter for less-able riders.

FROM CATTLE TO MOUNTAIN BIKING FOR NOT-SO-COMMON DUNGOG Mountain bike-riding trails could power the next great tourism boom, if one small Hunter Valley town is any indication.
Turning an old agricultural common into a mountain bike-riding course has provided an unexpected boom for the historic town of Dungog, Shire Mayor, John Connors said.
Turning an old agricultural common into a mountain bike-riding course has proven an unexpected boom for the historic town of Dungog. But according to Shire Mayor, John Connors, the innovation was almost an afterthought. “We have 650 acres of Crown Land on the edge of town called the ‘Dungog Common’, it is managed by a Crown Land Management Committee,” he explained to “Newswatch”.
“So, the Common Management got a grant and built one flow track, we’ve now got two,” Mayor Connor said.
His enthusiastic support for the trail was corroborated by a popular “Voice of Real Australia” newsletter which echoed Cr Connors comments.
“Local businesses have reported an increase in trade, and new ventures are opening in shops that were previously vacant. Dungog even has its own bike shop now, Tempest Bicycles, which opened its doors at the start of spring.
“A group called the Dungog Mountain Bike Club then asked if they could tidyup the Common; they adapted cattle trails that were already there, of which there are plenty.
“They then said they wanted to build a ‘flow track’ (a straight downhill mountain bike run for beginnerintermediate riders).
“It also brought campers and the likes out,” Mayor Connor said.
“By enjoying a burst of adrenaline on the trails, the riders are also injecting money and optimism into town at a time when both are sorely-needed.
The “Dungog Commons Mountain Bike Park” project, has, however become an almost accidental but highly-profitable success.
He said that the success of the venture encouraged the mountain bike group to get a little more ambitious.
“They’re also involved now in public riding trails; we’ve got lots of those. They go through the Chichester State Forest which is also suitable for riding,” he said.
“Hundreds of riders have been turning up each week from far and wide, seeking respite from coronavirus restrictions by hitting the tracks,” the newsletter said.
Anyway, a couple of groups began riding the cattle tracks; it all started when they began tidying-up the cattle tracks,” he said.
“That was 12-months ago, then the group got a lot more younger members, and it just went from there,” Mayor Connors explained.
now discovering other public roads in the area suitable for mountain bike riding, adding to the potential of the project.
The effect on the local tourism industry, he said, was almost immediate. “The first one came into use in May and it has just taken-off. We’ve got riders from Singleton, Newcastle, Maitland, and Sydney. From that start, it has been incredibly-popular,” he said. “Absolutely everybody was behind it, the local businesses all endorsed it,” he said. The track has proven such a success to the local tourism industry, with the recent October Long Weekend seeing a rush of riders coming to the area, that
supporters are now looking at bigger plans. “We had hundreds of mountain bike riders turning-up for the Long Weekend. The area currently has two tracks, and we’re going to build four,” he said enthusiastically.

“As the Mayor of Dungog Shire, Cr John Connors, says, mountain bike riding has brought an air of confidence into the community. “Like so many regional centres, Dungog has been searching for ways forward. “While it cherishes its past, and the heritage buildings will continue to attract visitors, this Hunter community believes that in mountain biking it has found a new track to ride along towards its future. And the bumps and berms on that track will just make the journey all the more exciting,” the newsletter concluded.

“Newswatch” called it… Orange has best Long Weekend ever!
Record visitor numbers come to the Colour City “Newswatch” called it right! Orange enjoyed a record Long Weekend with visitors urged to “see their own backyard” making The Colour City their favourite port of call. The record-setting numbers at Orange Visitors Centre over the Long Weekend featured more than double the visitors from last year. The numbers confirm what locals, retailers, and wineries witnessed; Orange was full of visitors seemingly visiting our varied attractions for the first time. The figures follow the upward trends witnessed by the local hospitality sector with many short-stay accommodation providers booked-out since the lockdown began lifting in early June. Orange City Council’s Employment and Economic Development Committee Chair, Cr Tony Mileto also said the number of visitors was expected to remain high for the foreseeable future. “We’re not experiencing peaks and troughs in the tourist numbers at the moment, they are consistently high every day of the week,” Cr Mileto said. “Last month, the visitors centre had
12,775 people through the doors, an increase of nearly 70 per cent from the same time period last year. “We’re working with Orange360 on strategic marketing programs to ensure we take full advantage of this increase in tourism and ensure we convert these visitors into long-term tourists to the region.” Border closures and international travel bans due to COVID-19 have kept NSW visitors closer to home this year and Orange has been reaping the benefits, Orange Mayor Reg Kidd believes. “We are all looking forward to seeing the end of this dreadful pandemic and the terrible loss and financial hardship it has caused across the world. “If there’s any good news to come out of it, it’s that more people have discovered why Orange is a wonderful place to visit, any time of year. “Nearly every weekend, for months, accommodation in Orange has been booked out, restaurants have been enjoying full dining rooms, accounting for the reduced number of seating permitted, and our local shops have been cashing in on the increased number of people in the

I guess one of the big talking points right now would be how the changes to the Jobkeeper allowance this week will impact on people and businesses? It will be interesting to see what happens with busine sses that have surviv ed on the back of Jobkee per until now but are no longer eligible.
There is also movem ent next Local Government heading towards the elections in Septem ber next year. They are still 12 months away but interested people are now starting to talk the talk and move into action. One area that is soon to become a talking point will be a push for more representation by women on the next Orange Council.

streets and outlying villages,” Cr Kidd said. “Orange has not seen this many visitors before and I’m expecting the numbers from this school holiday period to far exceed the July school holiday numbers, which were in themselves far in excess of previous years.” Over the long weekend, 2736 people entered the visitors centre, the same period last year there were 1333, a 105 per cent increase. The October Long Weekend has always been a peak tourist period for Orange especially coupled with the Orange Wine Festival, which is traditionally run in October each year. The festival was spread out over the whole month this year, with none of the larger signature events, due to COVID-19 restrictions. The average number of visitors per day, over the three days was 912. The only single day, in the history of the visitors centre, which had more people through the door was the opening day of the first exhibition at the Orange Regional Museum, “Paddock to Plate” when 1315 people went through the doors. The “see your own backyard” phenomenon has been seen first-hand by local home accommodation booking agent, Tim Mortimer. “Actually, we’ve been chockers since the June Long Weekend,” he said last week.

The new light poles in Summer Street are also sure to come in for discussion. It will be interesting to see what difference they make to the feel of the main street. I am having some difficulty thinking they’ll do anything for the street during the day while shops are open. They seem more of a nightti me attraction to me and I would have prefer red to see something that added to the dayligh t shopping experience at this stage. You’ll note we have several letters from readers again this week. That’s great! Keep them coming folks, I for one would love to hear your views on a whole range of things. Our Hearts for Orang e initiative continues to gain momentum as each week goes by, and given what retailers are facing over comin g months, it’s going to be interesting to see what impact the various promotional activit ies will have. Retailers in Orang e are encouraged to find out more about the program and then consider becoming part of it.

“I just think that people haven’t been able to travel overseas and interstate, so they’re looking within NSW,” he added. This was evidenced, he said, by a sudden surge in interest in local short-term rentals after the second wave of the coronavirus swept through Victoria. “Once Melbourne locked-down, we had lots of bookings,” he said. He says that this new interest in the Central Tablelands will have long-term benefits for the local industry, believing that to know the district, is to love it. “We all know how beautiful Orange is, about 20 per cent of those guests are going-out of their way to tell us, that this is their first visit,” he said. “This is really going to mean positive growth over the coming decades,” he said. Spokesperson for one local winery said that interest in visiting the region had gone up six-fold. “We would normally have maybe, 1000 enquiries at about this time each year, this year, we’ve had 6000.” Other local accommodation providers said that, after the slump caused by the State-wide lockdown from March, business is starting to pick-up again with a spike for the Long Weekend. With proposals for local artists to be featured in pop-up galleries utilising vacant shopfronts in the main street, Orange is well on its way to having that most preferred of tourist reputations, something for everyone!

Support to fight the small business blues Having to let loyal, hardworking staff go at the start of the coronavirus lockdowns was one of the hardest things for Mel Gregory.
Local retailers keeping their chins-up during tough times Having to let loyal, hardworking staff go at the start of the coronavirus lockdowns was one of the hardest things that Mel Gregory has ever experienced. Uncertainty about the course of the virus, loss of custom, and fears for their financial future, have taken a toll on even the most chipper of small business operators, Aaron Wright added. Psychological pressure of the coronavirus restrictions has impacted us all, but probably no group has been more affected than small business owners. Recognising this, the Federal Government last week made a 4.26 million budget commitment to rolling-out a new mental health program for small business owners. “When I had to let all my staff go… I never want to go through that again,” Mel from local women’s clothes retailer, “Bobbies” explained “My staff were amazing, that was what was so challenging about it. I’ve got them all back now. The thing was, no-one knew how long we were going to be shutdown,” she added. “I was running the store on my own, that was very hard, very trying,” she added.
about your family and losing the family home. You can redo a business, but what about the impacts on you and your family?” He said that the hardest period was when the shop should only serve take-away with hotel deliveries proving a saviour for his business. “The shop was dark because we didn’t have any sit-down. At times, the long hours got to you a little bit,” he added. “But getting-out and doing deliveries, that alone picked you up,” he said. The long hours though had kept his mind diverted from excessive worrying; he simply didn’t have the time. “The fact that you have limited staff and have to do a lot more, it kept everyone busy,” he explained. He said that the Federal money for counselling services for small businesses is well-timed with the winding back of JobKeeper over coming months likely to see new pressures added to struggling small businesses. “The next three months could be scarier than the shutdown period…we could see a second wave of stress,” he said. He had known a local retailer who suffered a psychological collapse during the first wave of the pandemic and had not yet recovered.
Psychological pressures of the pandemic-created recession, “People were great, really supportive, but we need to keep she said, have all affected small business-owners in different ways. “While no, it hasn’t affected me that way, I can understand talking to each other,” he concluded. it. I can see why people would suffer it.” “I was definitely concerned for the welfare of my staff,” Mel said. During the big lockdown, she said retailers in her block with few customers kept an eye on each other to ensure that they were keeping their spirits-up, a sort of informal “Are you Okay?” service. A naturally outgoing, positive person, Mel is always looking on the bright side of the street. “I think we’re over the worst of it,” she said. Aaron from Café Latte said that the continuing impact of the big lockdown was still being felt by retailers. “It was very hard… not knowing if you’re going to be here in the future,” he said.
Uncertainty about the course of the virus, loss of custom, and fears for their financial future have affected all small business operators, Aaron Wright said.

The Federal Government’s $4.26 million budget commitment to rolling-out a new mental health program for small business owners has been welcomed by small business groups. Leading mental health organisation Beyond Blue will deliver the NewAccess for Small Business service, which will provide small business owners with access to free oneon-one telehealth sessions with specially trained mental health coaches, Australian Small Business and Family Enterprise Ombudsman Kate Carnell said. The service is expected to commence early next year. “Mental health is proving to be the next big challenge to emerge from the COVID crisis and it is particularly impacting the small business community,” Ms Carnell added. “There has never been a tougher time to be in business. Small business owners are struggling to stay afloat and keep their staff employed throughout this difficult period. “Small business loans are often secured against the family home, so if they lose their business, they could lose their home. It means the stakes are incredibly high and that is understandably taking a huge toll on small business owners’ mental health. “Beyond Blue’s NewAccess service offers evidence-based, personal advice on strategies for managing stress.” Ms Carnell said that, crucially, it will be provided by specially-trained coaches that have experience in small business. Being able to talk to someone who understands the mental load of running a small business will make a real difference. “Small business participants will have six one-on-one sessions with their designated coach, who will use evidence-based cognitive behavioural therapy to support them to overcome stress and manage anxiety and depression. “NewAccess is a proven early intervention service with average clinically-validated recovery rates of 70 per cent. “Importantly, the program is designed to appeal to people who might not otherwise seek support for their mental health, which we know applies to members of the small business community. “My office will be working in partnership with Beyond Blue to promote NewAccess and connect small business owners with the service via our call centre and assistance team. It will also be fully integrated into our My Business Health web portal,” Ms Carnell concluded.

WE’VE BEEN SOLD A PUP! Biggest Tort Case in History - Scandalous Scientific Conspiracy Confirmed by World’s Top Scientists What do Deutsche Bank, VW and Corona virus have in common? “Listen to the science”, our pollies and sanctimonious health officials tell us as they lock us down, impose curfews, use the police to scrum people to the ground or arrest grannies and pregnant women, and take our Constitutional freedoms from us in the name of a huge health scam like the world has never seen till now. OK, so we should listen to the science ….. but WHO’s science? The discredited World Health Organisation (WHO) and their Big Pharma and Media mates who have the means, money, and power to trick the whole world into submission, bankruptcy and economic melt-down for something the REAL SCIENTISTS reject, but WON’T be listened to because the media mates in the mix won’t allow it? That’s the shonky science. Or should we listen to real scientists, like bio-physicist and Nobel prize winner for Chemistry, Prof Michael Levitt and many many others who say that there is no disease that goes beyond the gravity of the seasonal flu; that the population had acquired T-Cell immunity against this alleged new virus, and there was no reason for any special measures, least of all vaccinations. Of course, in Australia, we don’t even listen to our own highly qualified Professor Thomas Borody, who’s developed a simple and cheap treatment. So, what does Deutsche Bank, VW and Corona virus have in common? Dr Reiner Fuellmich, a barrister in both California and Germany for 26 years who’s known for bringing Deutsche Bank’s fraud and Volkswagen’s (VW’s) diesel fraud to account. So, he’s not your average downtown lawyer. He’s just announced that a network of lawyers will argue the biggest tort case in world history over the fake PCR test that was adopted as the standard for Covid-19 diagnosis. Dr Fuellmich has been on the German Corona Investigative Committee and listened to many very highly qualified international scientists and extremely
knowledgable expert testimonies in order to find answers people are asking about Corona virus. He says that the German corporations Deutsche Bank and VW’s fraud pale into insignificance when compared with the corona crisis, which should be renamed the corona scandal, for which those responsible must be criminally prosecuted, and sued for civil damages. “On a political level, everything must be done to make sure that no one will ever again be in a position of such power as to be able to defraud humanity or to attempt to manipulate us with their corrupt agendas. And for this reason ... an international network of lawyers will argue this biggest tort case ever, the Corona Fraud Scandal, which has meanwhile unfolded into probably the greatest Crime Against Humanity ever committed.” I would suggest you search Reiner Fuellmich on the internet for yourself and watch the “Crimes Against Humanity” video where he sets out the case in a logical and simple to understand way. I am just giving you an outline here to whet your curiosity before you get mad as hell that you’ve been taken for a ride – especially if you’ve lost someone to the virus, you couldn’t visit a loved one while dying; you’re maybe looking down the barrel of bankruptcy, accumulated longterm debt you wouldn’t otherwise have had; or you might have lost your job and may lose your home. The problem is that our own “top health officials” that governments have been fraudulently deferring to instead of making decisions themselves, simply have NOT done their homework and are completely irresponsible because they’re too stupid or incapable of doing any research that they’re paid to do. They’ve been conned into taking the advice of the WHO and listening to those who would gain $zillions by making unnecessary vaccines. This is in the face of plenty of Doctors the world over trying to tell us that there are simple solutions, and
they work just fine. But, they’re kicked off the net, scrubbed from social media and blacklisted as “conspiracy theorists”, where the big conspiracy has just taken down the whole world economically, along with people’s common law rights here and elsewhere. You will be horrified (but not surprised) to learn that Australia is used as an example of this: “In Australia, for example, people are thrown into prison if they do not wear a mask, or do not wear it properly as deemed by the authorities. In the Philippines, people who do not wear a mask or do not wear it properly in this sense, are getting shot in the head.” All this over a flu that is no worse than the normal seasonal flu. And we knew this by March-April at the very latest, but governments the world over were married to their “health” professionals’ chosen route (probably all had gone to the latest World Economic Forum’s preparation for a “pandemic” and were keen to implement it rather than think for themselves). That’s exactly how the UN works! Fuellmich’s argument centres around the fact that the PCR test cannot detect infections. He says the truly SCIENTIFIC fact is that “the PCR test is being used on the basis of false statements not based on scientific facts with respect to infections. Not only are PCR tests expressly NOT APPROVED FOR DIAGNOSTIC PURPOSES, as is CORRECTLY noted on leaflets coming with these tests, (but) the inventor of the PCR tests, Kary Mullis repeatedly emphasised this. Instead, they’re simply incapable of diagnosing any disease.” Yet on this advice we’ve locked down and continue to test with these tests that, according to a Dr Mike Yeadon, former Vice President and Chief Science Officer at Pfizer, and author of a paper called “Lies, Damned Lies and Health Statistics – the deadly danger of false positives” the likelihood of an apparently positive case being a false positive is between

89-94% or, near certainty.” The PCR test detects a normal cold or other disease “residue” that we all have floating around, and it can’t tell the difference. I guess Donald Trump just found that out! Fuellmich lays out the case well, but I draw your attention to a leaked German paper, now called the “Panic Paper” which calls for children to be made to feel responsible for “the painful tortured death of their parents and grandparents if they do not follow the corona rules”, that is, if they do not wash their hands constantly, and don’t stay away from their grandparents. I find this truly sickening. Fuellmich asks “Is there a Corona Pandemic, or is there only a PCR test Pandemic? Specifically, does a positive PCR test result mean that the person tested is infected with Covid-19, or does it mean absolutely nothing in connection with the Covid-19 infection? Do the so-called anti-corona measures such as the lockdown, mandatory face masks, social distancing and quarantine regulations serve to protect the world’s population from Corona, or do these measures serve only to make people panic so that they believe without asking any questions that their lives are in danger, so that in the end the pharmaceutical and tech industries can generate huge profits from the sale of PCR tests, antigen and antibody tests and vaccines as well as the harvesting of our genetic fingerprints? “ Another German risk assessment paper from the Dept. of the Interior said there was no sufficient evidence for serious health risks, but …. there is very much evidence of the corona measures causing gigantic health and economic damage to the population”, concluding it “will lead to very high claims for damages, which the government will be held responsible for”. Now, the chickens, (& goats, sheep and papaya that tested positive) are coming home to roost, because we’ve definitely been sold a pup!

AMANDA SPALDING with Bob Holland
WOMEN IN LOCAL GOVERNMENT – Stand for Your Community
BOB: I hear that the NSW Government is encouraging women to stand for election to local government. Do you want to tell me a bit more about your experience of this issue? AMANDA: It is good to see this campaign being led by the NSW Government and it would be good to see it encouraging greater diversity of candidates so that elected Councillors better reflect the communities that they represent. For many years I was the Vice-President of Womensport and Recreation NSW and there were very rewarding results as we were pushing against an open door. I facilitated a strategic planning workshop for Cricket NSW to encourage more women and girls to play cricket, and Cricket NSW has been one of the leaders in women’s sport. We have seen a big increase in women’s sports locally, nationally and globally. We see a lot more women’s sport on TV. I was so thrilled to see the Australian Women’s Water Polo team win Gold at the Sydney Olympics and the 20th anniversary was celebrated recently, and I was there when it happened! Womensport and Recreation NSW was also very involved in lobbying for more women on Boards; more women in the management of sporting bodies, and working with the Male Champions of Change to help those changes to happen. There are many statistics about the importance of diversity and one of the most telling is this from the Catalyst Information Centre: Why Diversity Matters. ‘Companies with more women board directors outperform those with the least in three financial measures: return on equity (53% higher); return on sales (42% higher); and return on invested capital (66% higher); than average results prevailed at companies with three or more on their corporate boards.’ There does not seem to have been the same progress for women in local government, both as Councillors and officers, in NSW, as there has been in other sectors. The term ‘boys’ club’ is often used to describe the culture of some councils, and I have certainly experienced that in my local government career in NSW. I have found that organisations with a monoculture, whether it be almost all men; almost all women; all anglo Australian people or all people of a similar age and background, tend to suffer from ‘group think’. If we believe that women are equally as intelligent as men, then organisations with only men at the top will, by definition, fall well short of the performance that could be achieved. While I was thinking about this column the Equal Opportunities episode of ‘Yes, Minister’ popped up on TV. It was filmed almost 30 years ago and has some of the best scripts of any comedy before or since. In a meeting of all of the white male Permanent Secretaries to discuss Equal Opportunities Sir Humphrey says: ‘So we are all agreed. We agree in principle that we should promote the best man for the job regardless of sex’ and ‘I think we should stress that it would be difficult to find a more diverse bunch than us.’ Later in the evening I watched the movie ‘The Rose’ starring Bette Midler with the great line – ‘come on ladies let’s stop being waitresses at the banquet of life’. Research (Johanna Adriaanse, UTS) shows that it is difficult for any one person to make an impact on a Board or Council, and that for real change to happen ‘minority groups’ need to have at least one third of the positions on the governing body. We started writing these columns to encourage people to get more involved so that we can get the best out of our councils. At the last local government elections in 2017 I understand that 88 candidates stood for election including 13 groups of 6 (known as tickets). Only one of the tickets had a woman at number one on the ticket, which was Joanne McRae, and she was elected. So, essentially we need more tickets with women and people from different backgrounds to stand as number
one on the ticket so they can be elected and bring about the kind of change that comes from a better balance when the governing body better reflects the community they serve. We do not need more tickets!!
https://www.olg.nsw.gov.au/public/about-councils/becomea-councillor/women-in-local-government-stand-for-yourcommunity/
BOB: So tell us a bit more about the NSW State Government campaign.
•Women for Election Workshops • A Snapshot of Women in Local Government that states: • Election of Women to Local Government Action Plan • Help promote female participation in the NSW local government sector
AMANDA: The NSW Minister for Local Government the Hon. Shelley Hancock, MP is leading a campaign to encourage more women to stand for election to their local council at the local government elections in September 2021.

‘The NSW Government is committed to inspiring and empowering more women to stand for their local community and nominate to run for their local council at the September 2021 elections.
The Office of Local Government has prepared a range of promotional materials to encourage more women to stand for their community at the council elections on 4th September 2021 and these are downloadable from the website page.
Did you know that women represent less than a third of all councillors and mayors serving on the 128 councils in NSW?
Orange City Council held a workshop for women interested in standing as Councillors in partnership with the NSW Australian Local Government Women’s Association (ALGWA) in October 2019. This was followed by a workshop for potential candidates run for Orange City Council by Local Government NSW and the second workshop that was scheduled for May was cancelled as the local government elections were postponed for 12 months to 4th September 2021.
Women from all walks of life are being encouraged to put their hand up for election to help ensure local councils are representative of the communities they serve.

It’s spring! and so road-works begin Having trouble getting to work on-time with new roadworks seeming to pop-up around Orange in the past few days?
z L ocal shopper Sue Sanders looks-over the image of a painter marking a road in Orange from the 1950s; a number of historical images are being placed around vacant shops in the CBD.
Well you’re not alone. As the weather warms up, so does Orange City Council’s road-works plans with a number of projects kicking-off in the past week. Multiple contractors have begun working on road upgrades across the city starting in Icely Road, Dalton Street and Prince Street.
OLD IMAGES TAKE COLOUR CITY BACK TO BLACK-AND-WHITE PAST Black-and-white heritage images from the Colour City’s proud past are being used to brighten-up a number of vacant shops in the central businesses district. The heritage images are being fitted to the windows of vacant shops as part of Orange City Council’s “Future City” plan to revitalise the streetscape and make walking in the centre of town more enjoyable for locals and visitors. The CBD shopfront activation is part of a Future City business development program that will receive $300,000 a year over two years that will also offer digital support for businesses. Initially, about 17 unleased stores will be fitted with historical photos, which have been sourced with the help of Orange and District Historical Society, local historian John Kich, and the building’s owners. Property owner Kim Rossi shared a photo of her mother, Thel as a child, circa 1945, with her weekly ice cream treat from the Rose Marie Café in Summer Street. The image appears on the rear window of 182 Summer Street. The shopfront features a photo of a parade passing the building as it heads down Summer Street to mark Australia’s 150th anniversary in 1938. “I think the photos are very effective. They are eye-catching and
uplifting. Not only do they add charm and a uniform character to the CBD, they also highlight the rich history of the city and its people,” Ms Rossi said. “I encourage other premises to do the same, if feasible. They certainly are a talking point for the locals and visitors.” Other images include workers painting pedestrian crossings, former buildings such as the Rural Bank of NSW and EC Cameron’s dealership, the opening of Coles supermarket, Christmas shoppers in Summer Street, aerial views of the CBD, and an Anzac Day parade. Orange Mayor Reg Kidd said that — while the Future City plan included several large-scale, long-term projects to transform the CBD — smaller changes such as this were hugely-effective and could be achieved much sooner. “This is a project that will make an immediate difference to the CBD,” Cr Kidd said. “The images will make these premises a point of interest for residents and visitors to our beautiful city and encourage people to spend more time in the CBD, which in turn will provide an opportunity for them to support existing businesses and encourage new ones,” he concluded. The images are on vinyl stickers that will be removed when the shops are leased.

Funding is now available for eligible local live and online events.
“We’ve seen socially-distanced events go really well and of course online events and Zoom functions are still occurring with increasing popularity.” Council is seeking applications from event organisers for funding for events to be held in January to March 2021. Applications are open until Sunday, November 15 with a total of $200,000 available.
While COVID-19 restrictions had forced many events into lockdown, now was the time for everyone to be getting-back out and into it, Orange Mayor, Councillor Reg Kidd said. “It’s been really tough for many people in the community — including charities — who rely on events to help raise the funds needed to support vulnerable people and medical research,” Cr Kidd explained. “It’s been really hard for businesses which host events and they’ve lost out on

“There is a huge amount of work being done in Orange at the moment, particularly in regards to our Future City plans but that doesn’t mean anything else takes a back seat,” Orange Mayor Councillor Reg Kidd said. “We will be getting stuck into our road renewal program with several high profile roads getting an upgrade,” he said, adding that the work would hopefully be completed by the end of the month — depending on forecasts for a wet October. The work includes: rince Street, between Hill Street and Anson •P Street with single lane closures and traffic delays expected. •D alton Street, between Anson Street and Peisley Street with single lane closures and traffic delays expected. • I cely Road, between Park street and Paling Street with detours in place. ynan Street, between Anson Street and •T Peisley Street following Icely Road with detours in place. • I cely Road, Water Treatment Plant Road (Top of the hill) to the Northern Distributor Road following Tynan Street. All businesses on the impacted roads are open during their usual businesses hours with Cr Kidd urging residents to continue to shop local and support these businesses. “Please also keep our road crews safe by slowing down at work sites and paying close attention to the instructions from traffic controllers.” Orange City Council’s Infrastructure Committee Chair, Cr Jeff Whitton said that, along with the road upgrades, other major works were well-established. “Warmer weather is ideal for these types of road upgrades, but larger projects tend to happen all year round,” Cr Whitton said. “For example, work began on a $2 million major upgrade of Forest Road from the hospital traffic lights through to Cadia Road in August, we’re more than halfway through a $5 million roundabout and road realignment at Hill Street and the Northern Distributor Road, and the third section of the Southern Feeder Road has just begun. “And those jobs are just the ones being handled by contractors. “Our Council crews are busy working on a carpark at the airport before they head to Ploughmans Lane for an upgrade from the Escort Way through to Cargo Road. “And that’s just the plan to get through until Christmas, there’s plenty more work to be done in the New Year,” Cr Whitton concluded.
BUDGET 2020

“CORONAVIRUS BUDGET” THE ESSENTIAL FACTS AND FIGURES
It’s the “coronavirus budget”, and our first national spending plan that has been framed battling a recession in nearly 30 years. While some have called it the most important budget in a generation that carefully plots a course between fiscal responsibility and stimulus — others an unpaid bill forwarded to future generations to pay-back — here’s a summary of the underlying figures for the 2020/2021 Federal Budget.
OPTIMISTIC FORECASTS • Budget deficit of $213.7 billion for 2020/21 — which runs out to about 11 per cent of GDP. • Economic growth to fall by 1.5 per cent • Unemployment rate to average about 7.25 per cent • Inflation to average 1.75 per cent • Wage growth of 1.25 per cent • Net debt to rise to $703 billion
TAX Controversial tax cuts are still going ahead to the tune of $17.8 billion. This will mean about 95 per cent of taxpayers will have 30 per cent or lower marginal rate by 2024/25.
BUSINESS Businesses with a turnover up to $5 billion will be able to deduct the full-cost of eligible depreciable assets of any value in the year they are installed. Loss carry-back will also be available to around one million companies. Small and medium businesses will also be able to access up to 10 tax concessions.
HOUSING An extra 10,000 places under the First Home Loan Deposit Scheme will be available to buy a new home or newly-built home. There will also be a $1 billion increase of the Government guarantee to the National Housing Finance and Investment Corporation to support more affordable housing.
INFRASTRUCTURE The boost in infrastructure spending is one of the big-ticket items in the budget with up to $110 billion extra spending over the coming decade.
RURAL AUSTRALIA • An extra $328 million to help agricultural exporters to recover from drought, bushfires, and COVID-19. • Total of $550 million regional package to support tourism, rural health workforce, manufacturing, and technology.
THE YOUNG • JobMaker hiring credit of up to $200 a week to support around 450,000 people aged between 16–35 to get into work. • A $1 billion JobTrainer fund will support up to 340,700 free or low-fee training places.
WOMEN Specifically for women, a $240 million package to deliver job opportunities, to support them as parents, and to increase female participation in STEM industries.
HEALTH A total of nearly $5 billion in health measures to deal with the coronavirus pandemic, including support for hospitals, protective equipment, and for vaccines and treatments
PENSIONERS Pensioners will get a $2.6 billion spend for two additional payments of $250 to pensioners and other eligible recipients over the next six months.
THE ENVIRONMENT A total of $250 million over four years to modernise recycling infrastructure, reduce waste, and to increase recycling.
SUPERANNUATION Ability to keep your superannuation fund when workers shift employment. This will effectively “staple” each fund to each worker.
SECURITY An extra $200 million assigned to deliver a cyber-security strategy including new investment in training and countering cyber criminals.
BOOSTING APPRENTICESHIPS HELPING OUR BUSH TOWNS Getting the young back to work — or into work for the first time — is one of the stated aims of the Federal Budget delivered by Treasurer Josh Frydenberg last week. This should particularly assist country areas where apprenticeships are the backbone of youth employment. With seven out of 10 new growth areas for jobs in the next 10 years for trades, a leading employer group has welcomed $1.2 billion budget plan to boost apprenticeships and the JobMaker youth employment scheme. WPC Group, one of Australia’s largest employers of young Australians, has welcomed the skills investment agenda announced by Treasurer Josh Frydenberg. The government’s 50 per cent wage subsidy to support the commencement of 100,000 Australian apprenticeships echoes a key recommendation to the government in WPC Group’s Apprenticeships for Growth report. The report called on the Government to invest in skills and turn the coronavirus crisis into
economic opportunity by tackling Australia’s chronic skills shortages. “We welcome this $1.2 billion commitment to create apprenticeship and traineeship employment opportunities. The 50 per cent apprentice wage subsidy will expand our skilled labour force by turning potentially long-term unemployed youth into tradequalified taxpayers,” Nicholas Wyman, CEO from WPC Group and NextGen Jobs said. Alongside the JobMaker Hiring Credit scheme offering employers up to $200/week to take on unemployed young people, the Government’s plan is both smart politics and smart policy, Mr Wyman believes. “With unemployment tipped to reach 10 per cent and youth unemployment forecast to peak near 25 per cent, our school leavers and unemployed need programs to provide hope and a clear pathway into the labour market.” “A failure to act and invest now would have prolonged our skilled labour shortages,” Mr Wyman said. “Vocational education pathways

will remain the best option for young Australians and school leavers seeking qualification and full-time employment.” “We prepared ‘Apprenticeships for Growth’ to encourage Australians to take a closer look at the career opportunities which are available via apprenticeship or traineeship,” he added. Key report findings include: • Apprenticeships are available in more than 300 occupations. • Completed apprentices enjoy an average starting salary of $59,100 – some with a starting salary of more than $90,000. • 87.7 per cent of apprentices remain employed after completing their qualification. • Australia will need approximately one million additional workers with vocational qualifications by 2023. • Seven of the ten fastest-growing occupations over the next five years are accessible via apprenticeship or traineeship pathways, according to government estimates.
Local roads and community infrastructure will be the focus of an extra $1 billion pledged to local government in the Federal Budget. This will also help deliver the targeted short-term stimulus critical to national economic recovery and growth, Australian Local Government Association (ALGA) President David O’Loughlin believes. The new funding builds on the $500 million Local Roads and Community and Road Infrastructure (LRCI) program announced in May with councils shortly to receive advice of their allocations from the Government. Mr O’Loughlin said the extra money for local infrastructure — to be provided to local governments in 2021 — will be coupled with Australian councils’
BUDGET 2020
BLOCKBUSTER CASH SPLASH FOR OUR SMALL BUSINESSES
Increased support for coronavirus-hit small businesses in the Federal budget have been described as a blockbuster cash splash. Federal Government’s 2020 Budget shows a record spend that will help lift small businesses out of the COVID crisis and provide a much-needed boost to economic confidence, Australian Small Business and Family Enterprise Ombudsman Kate Carnell said. The Budget includes a number of new, extended, and existing measures to further support small business including: • $4.3 million for Beyond Blue’s NewAccess service, providing mental health support for small businesses • $1.2 billion on the extension of wage subsidies for apprentices and trainees • $850 million on JobMaker hiring credit payable for up to 12 months to employers who hire young people (aged 16-35 years) • $15 billion in JobKeeper payments • $1.9 billion for loss carry back tax provision • $26.7 billion in instant asset write-offs for business uncapped • $800 million national digitisation plan “Tonight’s budget represents the biggest-ever fiscal response to an economic downturn in Australian history,” Ms Carnell said. “While this is entirely appropriate given we are in the midst of the worst conditions we have seen since the Great Depression, this does come with a record high deficit of $213 billion, and that is projected to balloon to $966 billion in 2024. “Given the number of measures that target the small business sector in this Budget, the Federal Government has clearly acknowledged the role small and family businesses have to play in the nation’s economic recovery.” Ms Carnell welcomed the Federal Government’s $4.3 million commitment to Beyond Blue’s NewAccess for Small Business service, which will provide small business owners with free one-on-one telehealth sessions with trained mental health coaches from early next year. “Mental health is proving to be the next big challenge to emerge from the COVID crisis and it’s particularly impacting the small business community,” Ms Carnell says. “There has never been a tougher time to be in business. Small business owners are struggling to stay afloat and
ability access up to $1.2 billion in a wage subsidy program for trainees and apprentices. This will enable them to green-light more “shovel-ready” projects that will employ people in regions still reeling from the combined effects of natural disasters and the coronavirus pandemic, Mr O’Loughlin said. “When Covid-19 sent us into national lockdown in March, ALGA called for fast, targeted short-term stimulus with long-term benefits – directed through councils – and here it is,” Mr O’Loughlin said. “We reiterated local government’s proven track record in delivering – together with the states and the Commonwealth – significant programs such as Roads to Recovery, Bridges Renewal, Road Safety Blackspots, and drought and bushfire relief initiatives.
keep their staff employed throughout this difficult period.

INCREASED RURAL HEALTH
budget is only a part-fix
“Small business loans are often secured against the family home, so if they lose their business, they can lose their home. It means the stakes are incredibly high and that is understandably taking a huge toll on small business owners’ mental health. “Beyond Blue’s NewAccess service offers evidence-based, personal advice on strategies for managing stress. “Crucially, it’s provided by specially trained coaches that have experience in small business. Being able to talk to someone who understands the mental load of running a small business will make a real difference. “My office will be working in partnership with Beyond Blue to promote NewAccess and connect small business owners with the service via our call centre and assistance team. It will also be fully integrated into our My Business Health web portal.” A further $1.2 billion will be spent on extending the JobTrainer package, supporting SMEs employing apprentices and trainees with a 50% wage subsidy, up to $7,000 per quarter, for 12 months. “This is an excellent initiative that responds to the needs of SMEs as they work to come out the other side of this crisis,” Ms Carnell said. “It incentivises SMEs to take on new staff and helps with labour costs, particularly for young people who are doing a lot of on-the-job learning in the first year.” The Federal Government has pledged $800 million in this year’s budget to help businesses take advantage of digital technology. “Over $400 million will be allocated to create a national directory, to be administered by the ATO,” Ms Carnell said. “From a small business perspective, it means you can register for an ABN, ACN or licence in just one place – significantly cutting red tape. “We know the pandemic has already forced many small businesses to make a decade of changes in just a few months by changing the way they do business, so it’s encouraging the government is supporting small businesses to modernise with technology.” “In possibly the biggest win to come from this year’s budget, small businesses can now write-off the full value of assets purchased until 2022,” Ms Carnell said. “This gives small businesses time and certainty to plan to buy major equipment. “It also significantly reduces the need for depreciation and cuts red tape,” Ms Carnell concluded.
“We said that financing shovel-ready projects in local government areas would help ward off recession by stimulating businesses and creating jobs across the country, delivering long-term benefits to the nation in the process.” “The local government sector is already successfully delivering the first iteration of the LRCI stimulus program, and it stands ready to do more.” Mr O’Loughlin also welcomed recent announcements by Deputy Prime Minister Michael McCormack that added nearly $400 million to efforts to boost regional jobs, road safety, freight productivity, communication networks, and skills development. Councils will also have a role in NBN Co’s plans to invest in extending fibre-direct connections to homes and businesses. The $4.5 billion plan includes the creation of a $300
million fund to co-invest with local governments to improve broadband services in the bush and beyond. Local governments that rely heavily on domestic and international visitors, especially those outside the big cities, will also benefit from a $50 million Regional Tourism Recovery initiative, and a new $200 million round of the Building Better Regions Fund. “The financing of infrastructure projects in local government areas will create jobs, provide support for local businesses, and provide new hope to local communities that have done it tough for nine months or more,” he said. Mr O’Loughlin said that local government leaders – fully aware of the importance of the regions in enabling national economic recovery – would get on with the job of identifying eligible projects in partnership with their communities.

Increased investment in rural health in the Federal Budget shows that more needs to be done to ensure that people in rural, regional, and remote Australia have the same health outcomes as their city counterparts, the peak body for rural health in Australia believes. “We’re pleased to see a number of targeted measures to improve rural health as part of the Stronger Rural Health Strategy,” National Rural Health Alliance CEO, Dr Gabrielle O’Kane said. She added that a number of new initiatives should help improve health outcomes in rural Australia, but this money will only “close the gap” between city and country. “We welcome the expansion of Rural Health Multidisciplinary Training Program infrastructure, which will help more students train to be medical professionals in rural areas. “The $3.3 million for new primary care models in New South Wales is also a good first step, but we want to see these place-based models rolled out in more rural areas across the country as well,” Dr O’Kane added. “The $125m program to improve access to clinical trials in rural areas looks promising and we look forward to finding out more detail from government about how this program will work. “It’s also good to see funding confirmed for the extension and expansion of the office of the National Rural Health Commissioner, as well as the extension of telehealth services for six months. More broadly, she believes, more support for mental health across the country is welcome but it will be important to ensure that rural areas get their fair share of the funding — which historically hasn’t been the case. “Expanding access to psychological services under the Better Access scheme is a good step as well, but unless that’s coupled with measures to address workforce issues in rural areas then it won’t necessarily mean better access for people in these areas at all. “It is disappointing that we didn’t see more investment in preventive health in this year’s budget. Spending money on preventive health is one of the best ways to improve health outcomes and saves money in the health budget overall. “We are also disappointed that we haven’t seen a more permanent boost to JobSeeker. The old $40 a day rate of JobSeeker was too low and meant that too many people in rural areas were living in poverty and weren’t able to afford things like fresh food. Now should have been the time for the Government to commit to a permanent increase,” Dr O’Kane concluded.

Junior cricket back-on for another summer
z Local Member Phil Donato with Gerard Hannelly from Orange CYMS Cricket Club.
New wicket-protecting technology and a wet, warm spring are all good signs for junior cricket’s restart in Orange next week.
“The fields are looking great, way better than last season ,” Jo enthused. “It’s been perfect for the grass, good warm weather and rain.” She said that turf wickets for the older ages have also benefitted from covered “growth mats” that create a greenhouse effect over the pitches.
Team numbers are also healthy for the resumption of the new Orange District Junior Cricket season with six different age groups ranging from under 11s to under 18s.
“They help promote grass coverings, they’re on all the pitches at Jack Brabham and help keep the warmth in for the grass to grow,” Jo explained.
“Registration is looking strong, we’re pretty happy with the numbers,” ODJCA President Jo Hunter said. Competitions range from Junior Format One for under 11s players with games held on Thursday evenings to under 12s, 13s, 14s and under 16s (Saturdays) with an under 18s T20 competition on Friday nights. “Our under 16s rep team will also be playing on Sunday, October 18 versus Mudgee at the Country Club field… our Under 14s rep team is actually already playing at Dubbo,” Jo explained. She said that the warm, wet weather of the
past month makes last year’s drought start to the season a welcome distant memory.
She said that the benefits of the heat mats are accentuated later in the season when the hot, dry Central Tablelands summers come along. “If you cover the wickets early in the season, they last longer, they don’t crack and dry as much later on when the hot weather hits,” Jo added. Any juniors seeking to get a late spot on one of the junior sides, can go to the: Playcricket.com.au website and go from there. Contact details are also included at the site for those who want to contact local clubs directly to find if any spots are still available.
New all-weather nets for CYMS Orange CYMS Cricket Club recently received funding of more than $20,000 for a second pair of synthetic “all weather” training nets to be installed at the Jack Moroney Training Facility. Member for Orange, Phil Donato announced the funding through the 2019 Community Building Partnership Program saying that that the new nets will mean more players can “have a fair go”. “There is a lot to be gained from the camaraderie, fitness and friendship team sports can offer. I was only too happy to support this application for funding.” Former president of Orange CYMS Cricket Club, Gerard Hannelly, said the nets will allow for increased participation in the sport. “We now have 13 teams all up, so the new nets will be put to good use,” Gerard said.

Where have all the seats in Summer Street disappeared — there are only four between Peisley St and Sale Streets There are none in front of Robertson Park anymore…
EVIDENCE-BASED TREATMENT FOR INFECTED US PRESIDENT
There were one each on the opposite corners of Summer St & Peisley Streets — Gone! There was one near the corner of Sale Street; why have they been removed? Council is crying-out that they are making the city pedestrian friendly — how? By removing seats? Maybe there is a story here…

Now that the US President (pictured) has contracted COVID-19 and is receiving the appropriate evidence-based treatment provided by his own physicians and NOT hydroxychloroquine, don’t you think Ms Bird should retract her ridiculous conspiracy theorydriven articles?
