storms, vehicle accidents and mountain rescues, playing a vital role during the devastating 2022 floods. “It was quite a surreal moment, being in a room with a whole lot of quality people volunteering their time, effort, skills and all sorts of

other things for our community,” he said. Drew began volunteering with Scouts before joining the Tweed Heads SES while still at school. Continue reading on page 8 and more award winners inside.

Police hunt is on for murderer THE FAMILY of murdered Dungay woman Yvonne Whear have made a heartbreaking plea for answers, saying they are devastated by her death and facing “unimaginable grief and unanswered questions.” Local police confirmed on Tuesday, October

13, that the beloved mother, grandmother and great-grandmother was murdered, after her body was discovered in an isolated cattle dip near Terragon last week, eight months after she disappeared. “Yvonne deserves justice. Our family deserves

answers,” her loved ones wrote, as detectives from Strike Force Malera urged anyone with information to come forward and help catch those responsible. Read the full story including the message from the family inside.

A KINGSCLIFF doctor fears it is only a matter of time before someone is seriously injured or killed by an illegal e-bike rider, accusing authorities of failing to enforce the rules while also highlighting that some parents and adults are turning a blind eye to dangerous behaviour. In a letter to The Weekly, Dr Stephen Palin, a local GP, has raised concerns about the growing number of electric bicycles being ridden illegally around Kingscliff, including by children, with helmets now seemingly becoming optional. Dr Palin is not the first resident to raise these concerns, but following police community meetings, repeat emails from residents to authorities and local politicians – the behaviour and lack of authority continues. The doctor’s concerns come amid growing community debate about e-bike safety and enforcement across the Tweed Shire, where riders without helmets has become a common sight. Dr Palin said he regularly witnesses behaviour that appears to breach NSW e-bike regulations during his daily walks

around Kingscliff. “Every day I walk in beautiful Kingscliff and every day I see at least one self-propelled E-bike driven without peddling and travelling faster than 6 kilometre per hour (km/hr),” he wrote. “What concerns me most is that this involves both adults and children, and it is often happening with multiple riders together. “Helmets are definitely an optional extra

and usually declined (despite being a legal requirement).” Under NSW regulations, legal electrically power-assisted bicycles must meet specific requirements, including limits on motor assistance and speed. For standard pedal-assist e-bikes, motor assistance must cut out at 25km/h, while throttle-powered assistance without pedalling is generally limited to 6km/h.

consolidation and postponement, arguing the original appeal should proceed as scheduled. In its submissions, the developer argued that combining the proceedings could help resolve a jurisdictional issue involving proposed works within the Cudgera Creek Road reserve. It also argued that hearing both matters together would avoid duplication and the possibility of different outcomes. But the court was not persuaded. Registrar Froh noted that the original appeal had been listed for hearing since June and that the developer had been aware of several outstanding issues for months. “The applicant’s 2025 appeal should be in a position where it is suitable for assessment and ready to proceed to hearing,” Continue reading on page 16.

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root made out of titanium, a biocompatible material surgically placed into the jaw bone. Dental Implants offer a secure solution to replace one or more teeth, providing a solid foundation for holding a crown, bridge, or denture. They look, feel and function like natural teeth. They are recommended to improve aesthetics, function (chewing) and speech. And they’re also easy to keep clean — just like your other teeth.

A PROPOSAL for a 279-site caravan park at Cudgera Creek has suffered a setback in the NSW Land and Environment Court, with a developer’s bid to delay proceedings and combine two separate development appeals rejected. The court has also ordered developer Arbus Pottsville Pty Limited to pay Tweed Shire Council’s legal costs associated with the unsuccessful motions, following concerns about delays and the company’s preparedness for its scheduled hearing. The ruling, handed down by Registrar Sarah Froh on September 17, relates to two development applications seeking approval for caravan park developments along Cudgera Creek Road. The original application, DA24/0352,

proposes demolishing existing structures and establishing a 279-site caravan park with associated works at 1183 Cudgera Creek Road. After the application was refused by Tweed Shire councillors, the developer lodged an appeal in the Land and Environment Court on November 19, 2025. A second development application, DA26/0311, was subsequently lodged for a smaller caravan park across properties at 1024 and 1183 Cudgera Creek Road. That application also became the subject of a separate appeal against council’s refusal, lodged on August 17, 2026. The developer sought to have both appeals heard together and requested that the original hearing, scheduled for October 1–12, be postponed allowing further amendments and preparation. However, Council opposed the proposed

Time to get tough on graffiti

I, on behalf of many Tweed residents, would like to commend our Member for Tweed, Geoff Provest, on his stance against graffiti (TVW, October 8), which is becoming an increasing problem across our region. More and more, we see streets, walls along major roads, overpasses, businesses and private property fences vandalised with spray paint by individuals who would face severe punishment if they committed such acts in other countries. In Singapore, for example, penalties can include jail time, fines and caning. Not that we advocate caning, but nor do we advocate the wet lettuce approach adopted by lawmakers in this country. It’s time to stop being complacent. People who know offenders or witness graffiti offences should report them to the authorities. And to those who engage in this activity, why do you feel it necessary to turn our beautiful home into a slum? John Butler, Banora Point

Council must follow the rules

00505 Cosmetic Tattoo 9x6col

I can assure Meg Houghton that my head is not one of those “buried in the sand” (TVW, Oct 8, Letters). I wholeheartedly agree that we need more housing, even in my own backyard. But the point remains that Council must follow the rules and regulations that govern it. Some of these decisions are overturned by the Land and Environment Court, but they mostly relate to buildings exceeding height limits by a few metres or failing to meet requirements for floor space and ceiling heights. According to the information I could find, Council does not take compliant development applications (DAs) to court. We need more housing, but the rules

Is the Tweed ready for tourists?

I read with interest the letter to the editor, “Tweed Must Change”, by Alan Rolph, and the article “Tweed Budget Unchanged”, both published on October 8 in The Weekly. Mr Rolph makes some valuable points regarding the state of our streets and buildings. He quotes a previous letter suggesting that the Tweed Tourism Company does not want tourists to visit the Tweed. Consider the following. The tourist information centre in Tweed Heads has been closed for months, while Kingscliff and Murwillumbah remain open, for now. Visitors arriving from the north have nowhere in Tweed Heads to obtain tourist information about the Tweed Coast. Despite the popularity of these information centres, visitors are increasingly being directed to search the internet. Has any Council officer or councillor inspected the road from the airport to Kennedy Drive? Compared with the Gold Coast section, the road is in poor condition and the grassed edges are rarely mowed. The Gold Coast side is a credit to Gold Coast City Council. Take a look at the northern end of Fraser Drive. It is rough, potholed and in desperate need of repair. Some streets in central Tweed Heads are also rough and riddled with potholes. In view of the above, it certainly gives the impression that the Tweed Tourism Company does not want tourists. Perhaps a discussion with local businesses might reveal that more tourists would generate significant economic benefits for our region. Brian Elliott, Tweed Heads South

Let the people choose

Thank you for your article about selecting a mayor (TVW, Oct 8, page 5). I believe the people should have a say in who will lead our community for the next few years. But residents also need to know who the candidates are, what they have achieved so far and what plans they have for the future of Tweed Heads and the wider shire. The community deserves the opportunity to make an informed decision about its leadership.

Carmen Castillo Roldan, Tweed Heads

Residents deserve a mayoral vote

Thank you for your article about the mayoral election (TVW, Oct 8, page 5). I would like to see a similar introduction to mayoral candidates as we had last year. There were around eight to 10 candidates, each presenting their plans for a better Tweed Heads. What happened this year? I hope I haven’t missed a publication, as I haven’t seen any articles about voting for a new mayor. The result was a vote in favour of Reece Byrnes, but where was the opportunity for residents to have their say? I agree with Cr James Owen that we should have a popularly elected mayor. Dorothy Perger, Tweed Heads West

Pedestrian crossings need care

Having just read your article about near misses at pedestrian crossings, I am not surprised (TVW, Oct 1). This town has so many crossings, often located close together, making it a challenge for motorists. Too many pedestrians fail to look before stepping onto the road, expecting vehicles to stop immediately. That is not a smart approach, as not

all motorists stop when they should. I wait until a vehicle slows down or stops before crossing, and I always wave and say thank you. It is much easier for pedestrians to stop than for vehicles to come to a sudden halt. Perhaps signs encouraging people to cross in groups could help ease the situation. Both motorists and pedestrians need to exercise greater care. Annie Warwick, Murwillumbah

Crossing is a dangerous experience

Regarding your story on pedestrian crossings in The Weekly on October 1. The experience of using the pedestrian crossing with traffic lights outside Sunnyside in Murwillumbah is horrific. Too many times, drivers fail to stop at the red light. Some even appear to speed up as they approach the crossing, forcing pedestrians to step back to avoid being hit, sometimes by vehicles travelling at considerable speed. Signs are needed to remind pedestrians to check for approaching vehicles before stepping onto the road, even when the pedestrian signal says “walk”. Better still, install a speed camera! Something needs to be done before someone is seriously injured. Anne Barton, Murwillumbah

Compassion and accountability matter

Compassion and accountability aren’t mutually exclusive. I write in response to Lisa Palmero’s letter to The Weekly on October 1 titled: :Where’s the help for homeless at CBD levee”. Lisa, your judgement about the lack of help available doesn’t reflect the work of frontline workers, volunteers and those who donate to or support charity and church op shops. Taxpayers, religious and charitable

organisations, among others, fund healthcare, mental health services, youth services, housing, rehabilitation, outreach and refuge centres, food and accommodation. Qualified staff help people facing countless challenges, sometimes tragic circumstances or poor choices, to break cycles, take accountability and use available resources to turn their lives around. There is help available from the community and all levels of government, although never enough. Many single mothers, pensioners, people with illness and the unemployed are doing it tough, despite receiving government assistance. Of course, there are exceptions, but sometimes the issue is not simply how much money people receive, but how it is spent. The few rough sleepers you see are just the tip of the iceberg. Most people experiencing homelessness blend in unnoticed. However, when antisocial behaviour, drugs, alcohol, partying, noise, disregard for rules, poor toilet hygiene and littering become issues, personal responsibility must also be considered. Allowing such behaviour on private property, public buildings or church grounds can create insurance concerns and costly cleaning and maintenance. Who picks up the bill? So Lisa, empathy and sympathy are admirable, but please also acknowledge the support systems already in place, the foster parents, volunteers and especially the many people these community services have helped through difficult times.

Final plans for Casuarina By Jonathon Howard

meeting community needs. “We see this as much more than a residential development. It is about creating a functioning town centre with places to work, shop, eat and spend time,” he said. “We want the commercial offering to complement existing businesses and fill some of the gaps the community has told us about.” The project is expected to support around 321 jobs, including construction employment and ongoing positions in retail, hospitality and other commercial activities. Plans also include a dedicated facility for the Australian Lifeguard Service, providing space for local lifeguards and equipment storage close to the beach. Basement parking would be provided across the precinct, with the developer targeting 15 per cent more parking spaces than Council’s minimum requirements to help reduce pressure on surrounding streets. Mr Esmonde acknowledged the proposal would raise questions about its potential impact on the surrounding community. “We know there will be questions about the proposal, including its scale, height, traffic, parking, amenity and what the Town Centre will look like when it is complete,”

he said. “These are important conversations we want to have with the community.” He encouraged residents to examine the plans and provide feedback before the development application is lodged. “We are not asking the community to simply take our word for it. We want people to come along, see what is being proposed, ask the hard questions and tell us what they think,” he said. “Community feedback will help us understand what matters most to people as the project progresses.” Community consultation runs from Tuesday, October 20, until 8am on Tuesday, November 17, with feedback to form part of the development application and potentially inform the final design. A community information meeting will be held at Salt Surf Life Saving Club, 45 Bells Boulevard, Kingscliff, on Thursday, October 29, from 5pm to 7pm. Registration is essential via casuarina@ holmdevelopments.com.au. Residents can view the plans and provide feedback via www. casuarinaconversation.com.au.

PLANS FOR almost 200 new apartments, shops, restaurants and commercial spaces in the heart of Casuarina are taking shape, with residents invited to have their say on the next and final stage of the Casuarina Town Centre development. Holm Developments has unveiled plans for a major mixed-use precinct spanning five sites at 23 Habitat Drive and 13, 14, 16 and 17 Grand Parade, with community consultation opening on Tuesday, October 20. The proposal includes 190 to 200 apartments, retail and dining outlets, offices and community facilities, although questions surrounding building heights, traffic congestion, parking and the overall scale of the development are expected to feature prominently during consultation. Holm Developments Managing Director Godfrey Esmonde said the project represented the final stage of a long-term town centre vision established in 2009. “By bringing these sites together, we have an opportunity to create a more cohesive precinct rather than seeing individual sites developed without a shared vision,” Mr Esmonde said. “We want to create a place that people can use every day — somewhere to grab a coffee, meet friends, access local services, enjoy open space and contribute to the life of the community.” The development would feature a mix of two, three and four-bedroom apartments, with 10 per cent of the residential component allocated to key worker housing for 15 years. Mr Esmonde said the proposal was designed to create employment opportunities while supporting existing businesses and

Expedia names Tweed top destination as well By Jonathon Howard

THE TWEED has earned another major international tourism accolade in just weeks, with global travel giant Expedia revealing a 35 per cent surge in traveller interest in the shire. Hot on the heels of Lonely Planet naming the Tweed among its Best in Travel 2027 destinations, Expedia has ranked the shire eighth in the world in its prestigious 2027 Destinations of the Year list. Even more impressive, the Tweed is again the only Australian destination to make Expedia’s global top 10, putting it alongside some of the world’s most sought-after holiday hotspots.

“travellers are being more intentional in choosing their next adventure” The findings are part of Expedia Group’s Unpack 2027: The Trends in Travel report, which identifies emerging destinations based on travel search data, research involving 26,000 travellers and social media trends. The Tweed recorded a 35 per cent increase in flight and accommodation searches compared with the previous corresponding period, highlighting growing

interest in the region among prospective visitors. Expedia singled out the Tweed’s “golden beaches, lush hinterland, relaxed coastal charm” as key attractions. The region ranked alongside international destinations including South Lake Tahoe in California, Hyogo in Japan, Punta del Este in Uruguay, Sedona in Arizona, Busan in South Korea, Holbox in Mexico, Perugia in Italy, Niagara-on-the-Lake in Canada and Chichester in the United Kingdom. The Tweed was also one of six destinations recognised through Expedia’s Smart Travel Health Check, a framework designed to identify destinations offering rich cultural and natural experiences while encouraging responsible tourism. However, the growing international attention has also raised important questions about how the Tweed can capitalise on its popularity without compromising the natural environment, local character and lifestyle that make it so attractive. The Weekly recently reported that Tweed Tourism Co leaders, now inhouse at Tweed Shire Council, are determined to avoid chasing visitor numbers at all costs, with a strong focus on sustainable tourism and protecting the shire’s identity. Expedia Group CEO Ariane Gorin said travellers were increasingly seeking more meaningful holiday experiences. “In 2027, travellers are being more intentional in choosing their next adventure,

Mayor Reece Byrnes talks about his first month and budy schedule

Mayor talks top priorities Expedia has named Tweed a host spot

seeking experiences that are more personal and purposeful to them,” she said. The report also identified growing demand for regional destinations, food and cultural experiences, outdoor adventures and holidays built around personal interests. For the Tweed, the latest international recognition adds further weight to its growing reputation as a destination where visitors can experience everything from pristine beaches and the Northern Rivers Rail Trail to rainforest landscapes, award-winning restaurants and thriving rural communities. With two major international travel organisations now shining a spotlight on the region, the challenge for the Tweed will be turning that attention into lasting economic benefits while preserving the very qualities attracting visitors in the first place.

MANAGING THE Tweed’s rapid population growth, protecting its unique lifestyle and tackling housing, infrastructure and parking pressures are among the top priorities for new Tweed Shire Mayor Reece Byrnes as he approaches his first month in the top job. Mayor Byrnes, was elected via a majority vote from his fellow councillors on September 17, and sat down with The Weekly to reflect on his first few weeks in office and outline his vision for the shire, including the long-awaited Pottsville telecommunications tower and the future of Tweed Heads. “It has been an incredibly busy, humbling, and productive first month,” Cr Byrnes said. “While I’ve served the Tweed as a councillor since 2016, stepping into the Mayor’s office brings a whole new level of responsibility but I am not wasting a minute.” At the centre of his vision is managing the Tweed’s projected population growth of approximately 20,000 people over the next 10 to 15 years. “My absolute priority is managing growth sustainably so we protect the Tweed’s unique lifestyle while building a strong, fair economy,” he said. “This is significant growth, but it must be manageable growth. We cannot afford to lose the community identity that makes us special — we want to avoid the pitfalls seen in other regional centres that grew too quickly without the proper guardrails.” Continue reading on page

Council to fight grant cuts Drew’s a local legend By Jo Kennett

TWEED SHIRE Council has joined four other councils in opposing proposed changes to the allocation of the NSW Government’s 2027–28 Financial Assistance Grants, warning the new methodology could significantly reduce funding for the already strained council budget. The NSW Government oversees the distribution of federal funding among councils and is proposing changes to make the allocation fairer. However, council leaders argue the formula must adequately account for disaster-related costs and ongoing recovery needs. Across Tweed, Lismore City, Kyogle, Byron and MidCoast, the proposed changes could result in a combined annual funding reduction of about $18.9 million. The proposed cuts would see Tweed Shire Council take the biggest hit, losing $6.53 million annually, a reduction of 47.16 per cent. Lismore City Council could lose $4.25 million, while Byron Shire Council could lose $2.40 million, both down by around half. Tweed Shire Council General Manager Troy Green said Council is still rebuilding after natural disasters and could not afford the cuts proposed by the NSW Local Government Grants Commission, without it affecting the provision of services to the shire or forcing a rate increase. “Whilst Council fully appreciates that some rural and remote local government areas require additional grant support it does not support a change to the funding methodology that would see Local Government areas rebuilding from natural disasters being penalised through a loss of recurrent grants because they were privy to funding to assist with recovery efforts,” Mr Green told the Weekly. “The impact to Tweed through successive natural disasters including Cyclone Oswald, the 2017 floods, the bushfires of 2019, 2022 floods and ex tropical cyclone Alfred have required an extended period of focus on recovery, rebuild

and mitigation that has come at a financial and human resource cost. “A reduction in financial assistance grants over that period would have had a catastrophic effect on Council’s ability to maintain its other existing service levels that the community expect and appreciate.” Mr Green said that if services weren’t cut to meet the shortfall, “it would have perversely seen Council needing to increase rates from a community already hurting.” “Council’s submission to the Grants Commissioners requests that formula exclude grants that have been received to assist councils with natural disasters or where councils are providing services on behalf of other tiers of government such as NDIS or childcare services,” he said. “If the Commission’s position remains unchanged it will have a detrimental effect to Council’s budget over the next four years which will invariably impact the services we provide the community such as road and sport field’s maintenance.” Tweed Shire Council mayor Reece Byrnes said the aim of the Financial Assistance Grants is to provide councils with greater certainty of funding, but the inclusion of Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements (DRFA) operating grants will create significant year-to-year fluctuations for councils. “For the Tweed this is a loss of $6.5 million a year, close to half our grant,” Councillor Byrnes said. “That is money that goes into roads, parks and the everyday services people rely on, and it cannot simply be absorbed. “Taking that much out of our budget while that work is underway makes no sense for a community that has already been through so much.” Kyogle Council could face a $771,000 cut, equivalent to 10.21 per cent while MidCoast Council could face a $4.96 million cut, or 20.71 per cent, based on letters of advice received from NSW Local Government Grants Commission.

By Jo Kennett

Continued from page 1 “As my skills developed, I became interested in general land rescue, road crashes and all the other things the VRA was doing,” Drew said. “Once I had a taste of that, I was hooked. “The amount of opportunities and skills it has provided me is countless. “I’m lucky enough now to be able to use those skills for people and pass on my skills and knowledge. “I think that’s probably one of the most rewarding and valuable things I’m doing with my volunteering today.” Having served as TDRS president at 23, he hopes to inspire the next generation of volunteers. “For me, it’s about the attitude of the leaders in the organisation — empowering young people to learn, have a go at these positions and guiding them while they develop,” he said. His nomination recognised more than 20 years of service, his efforts to develop people’s skills and foster a family-like environment. Drew recently completed a psychology degree, inspired by his frontline rescue work, and hopes to use it “for good in the community” in his new role as a Tweed Byron Police officer. Balancing volunteering with his career and family requires support, he said. “Volunteering is about doing what you can when you can but family and your other commitments come first,” he said. “I need to give a special mention to my family — my wife and my kids — because it does affect them. “At two o’clock in the morning or seven o’clock at night, it doesn’t matter what time it is; I can be activated to go and volunteer my time in a rescue capacity. “My family supports me with that. “They know I love it, and they support me, so a very big thanks to them.” Drew hopes his recognition encourages others to contribute to their communities.

“I also want to acknowledge all the people who volunteer alongside me,” he said. “Whether it’s emergency services or community organisations supporting people with dementia, supporting the elderly or working with other causes, we’re all valuable people in the community.” Drew’s mum, Sharon, said helping the community had always been his driving force. “Drew was always a doer, seldom a spectator, which made for an interesting toddler,” Sharon told The Weekly. “He was involved with rescue while he was still at school, which was a bit of a worry, but there comes a time when you have to have faith in your kid’s decisions.” Sharon said Drew progressed from Scouts to the SES before joining the VRA, where he served for many years, including as president. “I’m so proud of him and appreciate the recognition of his dedication to VRA,” she said. TDRS captain Jamie Stoddart described the award as “such well-deserved recognition”. “You are a calm, practical and highly capable rescue operator who can be relied upon when people need help most,” Jamie said. “What makes your contribution so special is not only your skill and professionalism, but also your character. “You approach every situation with compassion, humility and a genuine desire to help others. “This award is a wonderful tribute to your years of selfless service and the positive impact you continue to have on our community.”

Driver faces court over eight charges TWEED RESIDENTS will find out later this month what punishment a man faces over eight driving-related charges, including multiple alleged drink-driving and disqualified driving offences, when his matters return to Tweed Heads Local Court. Jeffery Smith is scheduled to front Tweed Heads Court on Wednesday, October 28, when decisions are expected on charges spanning court proceedings from 2024 to 2026. The matters were most recently listed before Judge L Stapleton at Tweed Heads Local Court on Wednesday, October 7. Smith has eight charges listed across four separate matters, including four counts of driving while disqualified, each recorded as a second or subsequent offence, according to court records. He also faces two charges of driving with a middle-range drink driving (prescribed concentration of alcohol (PCA)), both listed as second or subsequent offences. A further charge relates to driving a vehicle under the influence of alcohol, also recorded

as a second or subsequent offence. The eighth charge concerns allegedly refusing to produce an Australian driver’s licence or state his name and address when required. Police prosecutor Sergeant A Martin appeared for NSW Police, while solicitor Weller was recorded as appearing for or with Smith. Under NSW law, middle-range drink-driving involves a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08 to less than 0.15. Repeat drink-driving and disqualified driving offences can attract substantial penalties, including fines, further licence disqualification and imprisonment, depending on the circumstances and an offender’s prior record. All eight charges will be ruled upon at 9.30am on Wednesday, October 28. The court listings do not establish whether Smith has pleaded guilty or been found guilty. The October 28 listing is recorded as a “Decision”, rather than expressly as a sentencing hearing, so the nature of the expected ruling remains to be confirmed.

Acting Superintendent Matt Zimmer addressed the media and confirming Yvonne Whear has been found deceased in shocking circumstances. Inset is Yvonne Whear's missing person image

Hunt for murderer TWEED POLICE AND the family of murdered Dungay woman Yvonne Whear are making an urgent appeal for anyone with information about her death to come forward, as her loved ones face “unimaginable grief and unanswered questions.” Tweed/Byron Police District Commander Acting Superintendent Matt Zimmer said at a packed press conference at Tweed Heads Police Station on Tuesday, October 13, that they were treating Yvonne’s death as murder after forensic results came in. Mrs Whear’s body was found at an isolated cattle dip near Terragon last week, eight months after she was reported missing, with her car found dumped in the Rous River on September 12. “Our family are devastated and horrified by this news,” her family said in a media statement. “We are left facing a future without her, carrying unimaginable grief and unanswered questions.” The family described Mrs Whear as a muchloved mother of three, grandmother of 10 and great-grandmother of one, who was a friend to

many and an asset to her community. “Not only has she been robbed of her life, her children and grandchildren now all face the horrific trauma of this callous inhumane act, while whoever is responsible for this is still out there in the community,” the family said in a joint statement. “We urgently appeal to anyone who may have seen something, heard something or has any information, no matter how small, to come forward and assist police. “Please put yourself in our shoes. “If this were your mum or grandmother, you would want answers too. “Yvonne deserves justice. “Our family deserves answers. “Please help us bring the truth to light.” Act/Supt Zimmer told The Weekly police were considering the possibility that another person may have picked up the offender from the river after the car was dumped. “It’s been eight months now since Yvonne was reported missing, ” A/Supt Zimmer.

The scene of the Eungella shooting Photo Seven News

A MAN has been released on bail after being charged for allegedly pursuing and striking a man with a vehicle following a fatal shooting near Murwillumbah last year. On Wednesday, December 3, emergency services were called to Tyalgum Road, Eungella, after two men – aged 38 and 41 – had allegedly been shot by another man, who then ran from the scene with a fourth man. The 41-year-old man died at the scene, while the younger man was treated in hospital for a gunshot wound. Following the incident, detectives attached to Tweed Byron Police District established Strike Force Bray to investigate the shooting. As part of ongoing investigations, strike force detectives arrested and charged two men – aged 36 and 45 – over their alleged roles in the fatal shooting. Both men remain before the courts. Following further inquiries, officers attached to Crash Investigation Unit commenced an investigation into reports that the 45-year-old man had been injured after being struck by a

vehicle. Police will allege that, immediately after the shooting, the then 38-year-old man entered a Ford Ranger and drove onto Tyalgum Road, where he allegedly ran over the 45-year-old man before attending hospital for treatment of his own gunshot injuries. Following these inquiries, police arrested the now 39-year-old man at Murwillumbah Police Station on Thursday, October 8, before charging him with: Cause grievous bodily harm to person with intent Dangerous driving occasion grievous bodily harm – drive under the influence Police will allege in court the driver pursued the 45-year-old man along Tyalgum Road, while driving on the wrong side of the road, before striking him, rather than seeking immediate medical treatment for his gunshot wound. The man was granted conditional bail to appear before Murwillumbah Local Court on Wednesday, November 18.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals SES volunteers with Emergency Services Minister Jihad Dib, Justin Elliot MP, Tweed Shire Council councillors and Mayor Reece Byrnes

Minister inspects progress at new SES build By Jo Kennett

The NSW Minister for Emergency Services visited Murwillumbah on October 8 to inspect construction of the town’s new $6.2 million State Emergency Service (SES) headquarters on Old Lismore Road. Expected to be completed in early 2027, the facility will provide local volunteers with a modern base to support communities across the Northern Rivers and Tweed during floods, storms and other emergencies. The NSW Government is contributing $3.85 million, with Tweed Shire Council providing $2.35 million. “Our investment in the SES underscores our commitment to ensuring NSW communities have safe, reliable and high-performing equipment and facilities,” Minister for Emergency Services Jihad Dib said. Murwillumbah NSW SES Deputy Local Commander Jenny Townend said the construction represented an exciting and long-awaited milestone for volunteers. “Our volunteers have proudly supported Murwillumbah and surrounding communities

through floods, storms and other emergencies for many years, often working in challenging conditions and from facilities we have long since outgrown,” she said. “The new facility will provide our members with a modern, fit-for-purpose base that better reflects the operational demands placed on the unit and the vital role our volunteers play in supporting the community.” The purpose-built headquarters will feature expanded vehicle accommodation, improved training facilities, dedicated operational areas, upgraded amenities and remotely accessible delivery bays. “One of the most significant benefits for our volunteers will be the ability to bring all our emergency response vehicles, rescue vessels and equipment together at a single location,” Ms Townend said. Following a landslide behind the unit’s existing premises several years ago, rescue vessels were relocated to separate storage in South Murwillumbah, creating logistical and operational challenges. “The new facility will finally allow us to consolidate our resources in one place, improving

accessibility, operational efficiency and readiness,” Ms Townend said. Unit Commander Bill Fitch said the facility would make a significant difference to volunteers’ ability to prepare for and respond to emergencies. “Bringing all our vehicles, vessels and equipment together will make a significant difference to how we train, prepare and respond to emergencies,” he said. “This isn’t just about a new building. It’s about giving our volunteers the facilities and resources they need to do their job safely and effectively, while ensuring we can continue to provide the best possible service to our community.” Over the past three years, Murwillumbah Unit volunteers have responded to close to 850 incidents, predominantly involving storms and flooding. The region’s emergency response capability has also been strengthened by a specialised High Clearance Vehicle based in Murwillumbah. The vehicle will provide additional support during severe weather, particularly where flooding and damaged infrastructure restrict access.

Minister for the North Coast Janelle Saffin said the project was “about making sure the people who are there for our community in times of emergency have the infrastructure they need behind them.” Tweed Shire Council Mayor Reece Byrnes said the new facility recognised the dedication of local volunteers. “Having worked with many members of the Murwillumbah SES unit, I fully understand how much this new facility will mean to all the volunteers,” Cr Byrnes said. “Their tireless efforts during natural disasters, such as our floods of 2017 and 2022, are deeply appreciated by our community, and this new, modern home base will ensure their service and dedication is fully recognised. “I also hope that it may encourage more members of our community to consider volunteering for the SES which does such an amazing job in times of crisis.” Mr Fitch said the investment would benefit current members and help attract future volunteers, strengthening the unit’s ability to serve Murwillumbah and surrounding communities for years to come.

Catch Hunt for Yvonne’s murderer up with mayor Continued from page 6. With the Tweed recently named among Lonely Planet’s Best in Travel destinations for 2027, Cr Byrnes said the region’s growing tourism profile presented opportunities but also challenges. He stressed that roads, infrastructure, housing and essential services must keep pace with development. “My vision is a ‘fair go’ in every Council decision: ensuring our kids have local job opportunities, our families have secure housing, and our natural environment remains pristine,” he said.

Continued from page 10. “It’s been eight days since her body has been recovered,” A/Supt Zimmer said. “I have no doubt in that period of time there have been conversations in the community as to what occurred and as to who was involved. “There will be people in the community who know who is responsible for this, and I’d urge them to come forward and think of Yvonne’s family and what they’re going through right now.” Police have established Strike Force Malera, with investigators continuing forensic testing and searches, including further inquiries at her Campbell’s Road residence

at Dungay with line searches of the surrounding land underway as the press conference began. Police are particularly interested in hearing from anyone who visited the isolated cattle dip or nearby swimming hole, accessible via a fire trail off Kyogle Road, during the eight months since Mrs Whear disappeared. A/Supt Zimmer said the trail was often used by trail bike riders and the swimming hole was also popular with visitors. He said there is nothing indicating the involvement of a serial offender. Anyone with information is urged to contact police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Pottsville tower still awaiting construction

On the long-running battle to improve mobile phone reception in Pottsville, Cr Byrnes said Council had completed its approval processes and was now waiting for the developer and landowner to take the next step. “Delivering reliable reception to Pottsville has been a long-fought campaign, and I was proud to champion the community petition that helped secure Council’s development approval,” he said. Council has approved the telecommunications tower under DA22/0088, including subsequent modifications, with the consent now active. “Right now, the ball is in the developer and landowner’s court to lodge their Construction Certificate so building can physically commence,” Cr Byrnes said. “As a Council, we have done our part to clear the path, and we will continue to push the telecommunications providers to get boots on the ground and eliminate this frustrating black spot for Pottsville residents as soon as possible.”

Parking pressures in Tweed Heads

The Mayor also identified growing traffic congestion and parking shortages in Tweed Heads as major challenges requiring long-term planning. “Tweed Heads has a bright future as our vibrant northern gateway, but with that comes increased traffic and parking pressures,” he said. Cr Byrnes pointed to recent works at Ray Pascoe Park on Kennedy Drive and ongoing parking and footpath improvements around Coral Street as examples of Council responding to demand. He said Council was also using its developer contributions framework to help fund additional public parking as the city’s population and density increased. Longer-term planning includes Contribution Plan No. 23, which collects developer contributions towards purchasing and constructing public parking spaces. Council is also monitoring overnight parking restrictions in key locations to balance visitor demand with the needs of residents. “These first weeks have more or less been back-to-back community meetings, briefings, and hearing from residents firsthand at various residents and community meetings,” he said. “As a Councillor and Mayor I know we can’t do our job effectively without our good team behind us.”

Tim races into national spotlight A 16-year-old who began his journey in Council’s learn-to-swim program at the TRAC Murwillumbah pool, has swum the 3rd-fastest 50 m backstroke ever recorded by an Australian his age. Tim Wellm swam 24.80 seconds in his heat at the National Short Course Championships in Sydney on 1 October, just 0.4 seconds off the Australian record. It took him through to the Men’s Open final as the 10th fastest qualifier, racing against the country’s best at a meet that doubles as a qualifier for the World Championships. Tim competed in 6 races at the championships and said the 50m backstroke was the one where he exceeded his own expectations. “I did a really big PB and ended up making the A final in the 50 m backstroke against all the older boys,” Tim said. He started swimming at Murwillumbah when he was about 3 years old and still trains there today. Since the age of 12, he has been getting up at 5 am most mornings to train. His coach, Council Pool Attendant Graham Huband, said Tim had grown into a strong backstroke and butterfly swimmer and was moving into the sprint

events, with the 2028 Olympic Trials the next big target and Brisbane 2032 the dream. "Tim is a great role model. He has a group of 10 to 12-year-olds, particularly boys, chasing his school and local records. It is a privilege to coach him,” Mr Huband said. Murwillumbah is home to the Tweed’s only 50 m pool and Mr Huband said it gave his squad everything they needed. “It is a really good facility, with great start blocks and a good 50 m pool to train in. We’ll move back outside later this month once summer arrives,” he said. Council also runs 25m pools at Kingscliff and Tweed Heads and is planning for the long-term aquatic needs of a growing Shire. Murray Smith, Manager Parks and Active Communities, said Tim’s swim was a proud moment for the Tweed. “We are very proud of our 50 m pool in Murwillumbah and it is wonderful to see a local athlete who has come up through our pools racing against Australia’s best. We can’t wait to see what Tim does next.” To find out more about the learn-to-swim programs and Council’s pools, visit trac.tweed.nsw.gov.au

Have your say on how Council manages deceased whales Tweed residents are being invited to have their say on a new draft policy that will guide how Council manages deceased whales and other large marine animals on Council-managed beaches. The draft Policy for the Management and Disposal of Deceased Large Marine Animals is on public exhibition from Wednesday 7 October to 4pm, Wednesday 11 November 2026. The policy was developed following a Council resolution in November 2024 and responds to growing community interest in how whale strandings and carcass disposal incidents are managed. It sets out a clear and transparent process for making decisions when these events occur. Under the draft policy, each incident would be assessed individually, taking into account public safety, cultural values, environmental impacts, ecological benefits, cost and practicality. Where it is safe and feasible, Council's preferred option is offshore towing, which returns the carcass to the marine environment where it can break down naturally.

“People have different views on the best way to manage a deceased whale and there are no easy answers. There are many factors to weigh up before a decision is made,” Director Sustainable Communities and Environment Naomi Searle said. “This consultation gives the community a chance to better understand those considerations, tell us what matters most to them and share whether they support offshore towing as the preferred option where feasible.” Residents can read the draft policy, learn more about the benefits and trade-offs of different management options and provide feedback through Your Say Tweed: yoursaytweed.com.au/whale-policy

Drivers are being urged to slow down and stay alert for koalas during the breeding season, which runs throughout the spring and summer months. The call comes after 59 koalas were killed on roads across the Northern Rivers since January, including 2 on Tweed roads in the past 2 weeks. Council's Conservation Planning Officer Marama Hopkins said breeding season is a critical time for the iconic species, but it also increases the risk of vehicle strikes. "During breeding season, koalas travel further as they search for mates, making them more likely to cross roads and encounter vehicles," Ms Hopkins said. "We're asking residents, visitors and motorists to be especially vigilant. Koala habitat exists throughout the Tweed, so slowing down and paying attention can help save lives." To help raise awareness, Council has deployed trailer-mounted Variable Message Signs (VMS) at key locations across the Tweed, reminding motorists to watch for wildlife. If you see a koala on or near a road, or if a koala has been involved in a vehicle strike, report it immediately, regardless of whether the animal appears injured, healthy or deceased. Contact details for local wildlife rescue organisations are provided below.

Council VMS signs urge drivers to watch for wildlife.

How you can help keep koalas safe 1. Reduce speed: koalas are often difficult to spot from a distance, especially at night, and can cross the road unexpectedly. Lowering your speed will give you more time to react and avoid collisions. 2. Be cautious: pay extra attention when driving through areas identified as wildlife habitats, or where signage indicates recent sightings. 3. Report every koala you see close to, or on a road immediately, whether they appear healthy, injured or dead. 4. If a koala is on or near the road and may have been hit by a car, stay with the animal until a rescuer attends. If you cannot stay, try to be as exact as possible about the location (i.e. specific addresses, GPS points or landmarks are incredibly helpful). 5. Save the phone numbers of Northern Rivers wildlife rescue organisations in your phone, so you are ready to report any sightings or accidents. For koalas in the Tweed, call Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers on 02 6672 4789 or Friends of the Koala’s 24/7 koala rescue hotline on 02 6622 1233.

Courtney Act swaps the stage for the interviewer's chair

Council trivia

Did you get last week's question right? Answer: C. Lithium batteries and items with embedded batteries pose a serious fire risk when placed in kerbside bins. If the battery is damaged, that is swollen or warming up, take particular care as they can explode into flames, giving off toxic fumes and intense heat. They can also spark, ignite and explode inside rubbish trucks and waste facilities. That’s why batteries should never be binned and instead taken to approved drop‑off locations such as B‑cycle collection points or Community Recycling Centres.

Courtney Act has competed on Australian Idol, finished second on RuPaul's Drag Race and won Celebrity Big Brother UK. In 2026, Courtney Act, Australia's dazzling drag superstar, joined SBS as host for the Eurovision Song Contest for the second year running. On Saturday 7 November the Brisbane-born performer turns interviewer for one night only at the Regent Cinema in Murwillumbah. Her guest is artist Gerwyn Davies, whose exhibition Sunburn is on at Tweed Regional Gallery and Margaret Olley Art Centre. In Sunburn Davies responds to ephemera, icons and visual culture of the nation’s glittering “Sunrise Strip”. Creating sequined and spandex costumes, he then photographs himself wearing them in layered sets inspired by the visual culture of Australia's Sunrise Strip. He made much of the work during a 3-week residency at the Gallery's Nancy Fairfax Artist in Residence Studio in 2025. Act is known for her intelligence, humour and knack for asking insightful questions. She will lead a lively conversation exploring Davies' artistic process, inspirations and the playful camp aesthetics that have become a hallmark of his work. "Davies performs each role within the work, wearing every costume," Tweed Regional Gallery Director Ingrid Hedgcock said. "His interweaving of photography and textile practices results in wonderfully lavish mise-en-scènes."

The evening takes the artist out of the gallery and onto the stage at the Regent Cinema. Guests can settle in with popcorn, buy drinks and food and enjoy the conversation. Gerwyn Davies x Courtney Act: In Conversation is presented by the Tweed Regional Gallery Foundation Ltd with support from Jan Murphy Gallery (Brisbane), Halcyon House and M|Arts Precinct.

Court rules on appeal

By Jonathon Howard

o achieve good physical balance, we rely on our brain, eyes, inner-ear, and musculoskeletal system to work in harmony. However, when the fragile vestibular organs of the inner ear and brain are damaged by illness or injury, anyone can lose their ability to balance. Balance disorders are typically under diagnosed and undertreated. More than 1/3 of adults aged 40 years and older experience vestibular dysfunction at some point in their lives. (BPPV), and once diagnosed is easily treated with repositioning manoeuvres. Amongst other types of vertigo are Meniere’s Disease, Vestibular Neuritis and Cervicogenic Vertigo. Cervicogenic Vertigo is due to a dysfunction in the neck and can be easily treated with Osteopathic intervention.

There are many causes of dizziness or vertigo. But most types of vestibular disorders can be diagnosed by means of a thorough medical history and clinical examination.

Dr Rudi Gerhardt has had substantial education in the ﬁeld of Vestibular Disorders, can diagnose most of the common types, and is able to either treat the condition or refer on for further diagnosis and treatment.

The most common type of vertigo is Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo

Dr Rudi Gerhardt B.Sc., D.O. Your local Osteopath

Common symptoms of vestibular disorders include vertigo and dizziness. Vertigo is a spinning or whirling sensation, or an illusion of the self or world moving. Dizziness is a lightheaded, ﬂoating or rocking sensation. Poor balance, nausea, visual disturbances, headache, hearing loss, tinnitus, and pain or fullness in the ears can accompany vestibular disorders.

Continued from page 3. The court also examined evidence concerning the availability of the developer’s expert witnesses, finding that their unavailability had previously been raised during court proceedings. “No explanation has been provided by the applicant about why it sought leave to rely on the evidence of these experts for a hearing listed when they were not available,” the ruling stated. The court was similarly critical of delays surrounding proposed amendments to the original application. According to the judgment, Council had provided its Statement of Facts and Contentions in February 2026, outlining issues requiring a response. Despite the developer indicating on several occasions that amendments were imminent, they had not been finalised when the motions were heard in September. “No explanation has been provided by the applicant accounting for these representations to the respondent and the submissions to the court that the application to amend was imminent,” Registrar Froh stated. The court ultimately refused to postpone the original hearing or combine the two appeals. It did, however, allow a limited amendment to the second appeal to include an application for approval for works within the Cudgera Creek Road intersection road reserve. That amendment was not opposed by Council. In a further blow to the developer, the court ordered Arbus Pottsville to pay Council’s costs arising from the amendment, as well as Council’s costs for appearing at the September 3 hearing. Registrar Froh found the developer’s representations concerning the readiness of the original appeal had caused unnecessary expense. “These representations have been unhelpful

to the court and the respondent with respect to the preparation for the hearing of the 2025 appeal and this motion,” the judgment stated. “As a result, the respondent has been put to considerable expense defending these motions.” The amount payable will be agreed between the parties or formally assessed. The ruling is a procedural decision and does not determine whether either caravan park development should ultimately be approved. The original 279-site proposal remained listed for hearing from October 1–12 under the September 17 orders, while the smaller development remained the subject of separate proceedings. The Weekly notes that the judgment does not provide the final outcome of either development appeal, with the future of the proposed caravan park developments still subject to the court process.

The new DA for the Pottsville Caravan Park has been rejected despite being significantly smaller

Entwined to launch Savour the Tweed By Jonathon Howard

00498 Geekaroo HP

THE PEOPLE behind the Tweed’s world-class food scene are stepping into the spotlight, with award-winning photographer Rob Palmer capturing the faces and stories that make the shire a culinary powerhouse. From farmers and fishers to acclaimed chefs and artisan producers, Palmer’s striking new exhibition, Entwined, celebrates the characters behind the Tweed’s extraordinary food culture. The exhibition is titled “Entwined: The People Behind the Tweed’s Culinary Scene” and it opens at Murwillumbah’s M|Arts Precinct on Wednesday, October 21, launching this year’s Savour The Tweed festival. Palmer won the prestigious National Photographic Portrait Prize in 2020 and has spent months travelling throughout the Tweed, capturing incredible portraits of the people whose passion and hard work have helped establish the shire as one of Australia’s leading food destinations. Rather than simply photographing beautifully presented meals, Palmer has ventured behind the scenes, visiting farms, kitchens, restaurants, workshops and waterways to document the people and landscapes behind the produce. The result is a collection of large-scale portraits revealing the personalities, traditions and relationships that make the Tweed’s food culture so distinctive. Among those featured are renowned Bundjalung chef Mindy Woods, respected Elder Uncle Franc Krasna, Pottsville’s acclaimed Pipit chef Ben Devlin and local fisherman Dan Fleming of Fleming Fish Co. The exhibition also celebrates the Tweed’s agricultural heartland, featuring the Waldron family’s Limpinwood Layers egg farm, cheesemaker Deb Allard of Cheeses Loves You in Burringbar, and Rod and Tania Bruin of Summit Organics near Tyalgum.

Other familiar local names include Tropical Fruit World, Husk Distillery, Sunshine Sugar, Tweed Valley Pecans, Jumping Red Ant and Tweed River House. Each portrait offers a glimpse into the people and places that have helped shape the region’s food identity, from traditional farming families to innovative chefs and emerging producers. Palmer has spent more than two decades photographing some of Australia’s most influential chefs, restaurants and food personalities. His impressive career includes two James Beard Awards for his work with acclaimed chef Josh Niland on The Whole Fish and Take One Fish. However, Entwined is as much about community and connection as it is about food. The exhibition’s opening night will bring many of the people featured in the photographs together, with food personality Magdalena Roze hosting conversations exploring the stories behind the images. Guests will have an opportunity to meet the growers, chefs and producers, with music, drinks and celebrations throughout the evening. The exhibition also marks the opening of the third annual Savour The Tweed festival, running from October 21 to 25. Co-curated by celebrated chef and author Christine Manfield and local food advocate Amy Colli, the festival features almost 30 events across the Tweed, including long-table lunches, farm experiences, chef collaborations and cultural activities. The program will showcase the region’s extraordinary diversity, from the rich agricultural soils of Cudgen and the Tweed Valley to the seafood harvested from local rivers and coastal waters. With the Tweed recently gaining international recognition through Lonely Planet’s Best in Travel 2027, the exhibition offers another opportunity to celebrate the people responsible

for the region’s growing reputation. The Entwined opening begins at 6pm on Wednesday, October 21, at M|Arts Precinct, Murwillumbah. Tickets are $20 per person, with children under 10 admitted free. For bookings and further information, visit www.savourthetweed.com.au.

Locally trusted with decades of experience. All handmade here in Murwillumbah.

Our Services: › Full Dentures

MURWILLUMBAH LOCAL Ben Johns has witnessed a century of change across the Tweed Shire, but as he prepares to celebrate his 100th birthday on Saturday, October 17, the remarkable centenarian is still riding his bike and enjoying the outdoors. Born in 1926, Ben has spent almost his entire life in the Tweed and remains a regular on the Northern Rivers Rail Trail, riding his electric bike almost twice a week. “I’m a regular user of the Rail Trail and go on my electric bike with a helmet almost twice a week,” Ben told The Weekly. Asked about the secret to reaching 100, Ben had a simple response.

“I don’t know why I’m still here,” he laughed. Perhaps the answer lies in a lifetime of hard work, exercise and healthy living, having never smoked or drank alcohol. Ben’s working life began earning just 10 shillings a week helping his father, Bob Johns, who operated a motorcycle shop in South Murwillumbah. “A banana farmer offered me three pounds per week, so I took that job for a while, after his son signed up for the army,” he said. Ben later worked as a motorcycle mechanic in his father’s shop for about 10 years before spending 15 years as a mechanic and maintenance worker at Standard Sawmilling Company in Condong. He then spent about eight years travelling

Cooking for one: Making mealtimes easier Cooking for one can sometimes feel like more effort than it is worth. Buying ingredients, preparing a complete meal and washing up afterwards can be time consuming, particularly when you only need a single serve. Fresh ingredients are also commonly sold in larger quantities, making it difficult to use everything before it spoils. This can lead to food waste, repeated leftovers or choosing a quick snack instead of preparing a balanced meal. Keeping a selection of frozen meals at home can make everyday mealtimes much easier. There is no need to plan days in advance or worry about fresh food going to waste. You can simply choose what you feel like eating and heat only the amount you need. Gourmet Meals offers a wide variety of complete frozen meals made with quality ingredients. With comforting roasts, chicken, seafood, pasta and vegetarian options available, you can enjoy something different throughout the week

without buying numerous ingredients or spending hours in the kitchen. Individual portions can also help make serving the right amount easier while reducing unnecessary waste. Having meals readily available is particularly helpful on days when shopping, cooking or standing in the kitchen feels more difficult than usual. The Gourmet Meals is reviewed by an accredited practicing dietitian approved and snap frozen to preserve its flavour and quality. Meals can be heated from frozen in just minutes, providing a convenient option for people living independently, managing a busy schedule or simply wanting an occasional break from cooking. With a selection of meals in the freezer, you can enjoy greater variety and make mealtimes simple, satisfying and enjoyable.

north in winter and south in summer, following seasonal work, particularly the sugar cane harvests. Along for the adventure was his beloved wife Barbara, whom he married in Murwillumbah in 1951. Barbara sadly passed away in 2016. Motorcycles have always been a family passion, with Ben holding his licence until the age of 80. “My father, in 1925, rode an Indian motorcycle almost all the way to the top of Mt Warning, I highly doubt he made it the whole way of course, but he got a fair way up there,” Ben recalled. “He was an Indian Motorcycle shop owner in town, where Phil Taylor is today, for many years and was a keen rider.” Ben is also a passionate bush walker who celebrated his 90th birthday in 2016 by climbing Mount Warning (Wollumbin).

“I am a bush walker and have done a lot of bush walks in the Tweed,” he said. He remains a strong advocate for reopening the iconic mountain to visitors. “They should have it reopened to visitors. It’s a beautiful walk up there,” he said. Having watched Murwillumbah change over the decades, Ben believes increasing traffic and a shortage of parking are among the town’s growing challenges. But his immediate focus is celebrating an extraordinary milestone with family and friends at the Murwillumbah Services Club on Saturday, October 17. After 100 years of hard work, adventure and countless kilometres on two wheels, Ben shows no signs of losing his enthusiasm for life. Happy 100th birthday Ben from The Weekly!

Walk for breast cancer awareness RESIDENTS AT Southern Cross Care St Joseph’s are stepping up for a cause close to their hearts this October, taking on a 58-kilometre walking challenge as part of a month-long fundraiser for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The initiative is bringing residents, including breast cancer survivors, together with staff and the wider community to raise funds and awareness while enjoying a range of activities throughout October. Southern Cross Care St Joseph’s representative Karen Walkden contacted The Weekly to share the inspiring campaign. “Our residents, some of whom are survivors of breast cancer, will be walking in teams 58 kilometres over the month of October to raise money,” Ms Walkden said. The fundraising campaign kicked off with a $5 breakfast, with a special high tea and other activities planned throughout the month. “Our staff will be in pink for the whole month and we will finish the month with a raffle,” Ms Walkden said. “Several businesses from Tweed City have donated products and vouchers.” The walking challenge is particularly meaningful for residents who have experienced breast cancer firsthand, providing an opportunity to support others affected by the disease. The campaign is also helping bring residents and staff together through exercise, social activities and a shared commitment to an important cause. Breast Cancer Awareness Month is held internationally each October to highlight the importance of early detection, treatment and support for people affected by breast cancer. The team at St Joseph’s is encouraging the community to support its fundraising efforts throughout the month. For more information, contact Southern Cross Care St Joseph’s on (07) 5524 4519.

Continued from page 3. Approved e-bike riders must also wear an Australian-standard bicycle helmet, with the same basic road rules applying to conventional bicycles. Dr Palin questioned why authorities were not doing more to address apparent breaches, particularly when young riders were involved in large numbers. “When are the authorities actually going to do something about it, is what we could ask?” he wrote. “The other questions we could ask are when are parents going to take responsibility for themselves and the action of their children, and when will adults recognise that it’s time to set an example and abide by a law – set to protect both riders and pedestrians?” The issue is particularly relevant to shared pathways and recreational areas across the Tweed, where cyclists, pedestrians, families and visitors increasingly share the same spaces. The Northern Rivers Rail Trail has also become a major attraction for recreational cyclists and e-bike riders, making responsible riding and helmet compliance important considerations for user safety. While e-bikes offer significant benefits for transport, recreation and tourism, concerns

remain about high-powered models, illegal modifications and riders failing to comply with existing regulations. Dr Palin said enforcement alone would not solve the problem, calling on the community to take greater personal responsibility. “The Authorities seem to need some help and responsibility to be taken by the community in abiding by the laws,” he wrote. “I ask everyone to look at their own bike and their own actions, and how they would be feeling should they ever be involved in an awful accident-causing injury to themselves, others or tragically, causing even death.” He ended his letter with a simple warning to riders and parents. “Fun is only fun until somebody gets hurt,” he said. The doctor’s concerns add to mounting questions about whether existing e-bike laws are being adequately enforced across the Tweed and whether greater education, police patrols and parental accountability are needed to prevent a serious accident. YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe authorities could do more to address the number of illegal e-bikes on the Tweed Coast? Or should this be a parental issue?

IT WAS a “paws-itively purrr-fect” morning at St James Anglican Church in Kingscliff on Sunday, October 4, as dozens of parishioners and their four-legged friends gathered for a special Blessing of the Pets service celebrating St Francis and the bond between people, animals and nature. Around 40 people and more than a dozen dogs attended the outdoor service on the St James Church Hall lawn, held between 8.30am and 9.30am in glorious sunshine. And despite the excitement of having so many furry friends together, organisers were delighted that not a single bark interrupted the prayers, hymns or sermon. The service celebrated the life and teachings of St Francis of Assisi, the beloved patron saint of animals and ecology, whose feast day falls on October 4. Born in Italy in the late 12th century, St Francis is remembered for his extraordinary compassion towards animals, the poor and the natural world. He founded the Franciscan religious order and famously preached about the importance of treating all living creatures with kindness and respect. Stories of St Francis preach-

ing to birds and taming a fierce wolf have become enduring symbols of his belief that all creation deserves love and care. His legacy continues today through annual Blessing of the Animals services held by churches around the world. At St James, Reverend Constantine Osuchukwu delivered a sermon reflecting on the saint’s teachings before walking among the gathering and sprinkling holy water over the pets. The well-behaved dogs appeared to take the special attention in their stride, with the congregation enjoying the peaceful outdoor setting. A barbecue followed the service, giving parishioners and pet owners an opportunity to socialise. St James representative Jason Saltearn said the beautiful weather and excellent turnout helped make the occasion a memorable celebration for the church community. The celebrations are not over, with St Mark’s Anglican Church in Pottsville preparing to host its own Blessing of the Pets service at 10.30am on Sunday, October 25.

Youth and seniors connecting IT’S SURPRISING how valuable the time to really talk can be to both young and old. The Weekly is proud to again bring you the results of good connections built between students and elders as part of the Murwillumbah intergenerational co-mentoring project. This project grew from a partnership between Tweed Shire Council’s Senior Ambassador and Murwillumbah High School. It brought together a group of retired volunteers with and students in year 11 for a series of weekly meetings to get to know one another. Reflecting on the project has revealed that whilst both groups may have had some idea of what they would get out of participating, they were

Student I. on Elder BILL

Elder BILL on Student I.

Bill said, “I am really grateful for my parents. They taught me a lot growing up. I am most grateful that my dad taught me to treat everyone equally and treat people with respect.” Growing up, Bill was always watching and learning things from his parents. The key value in their household was equality, which is why it is also Bill’s. Bill also learned this himself by watching his father treat his mother like everyone else — equally. The knowledge he gained from his parents gave him a very good mindset for his future. As Bill’s career in media and publishing developed he moved into management positions. As a manager he ensured all his work colleagues were treated equally. He would never ask somebody to do a task he wouldn’t do himself. When Bill interviewed people for a job he would never judge them on their looks, age or gender, believing that these things don’t matter. What matters most is the work ethic and skills they bring to the team.

Student I is a confident young man who from a young age realised that respect was a key value for him. Through experiences in adversity, like witnessing the effect of the floods in Murwillumbah in 2017 and 2022, he noticed that the respect that volunteers and community members showed each other fostered confidence in individuals to be their best. For the last few years he has worked a weekend and after-school job in customer service for a large multi-national company. He cites the training he received when starting this job as giving him concrete examples of how to show respect to all people and the confidence to deal with a variety of situations in the workplace. In turn this confidence has also greatly reduced hesitation in social situations and encouraged him to have an open mind and to be judgement-free when meeting new people. In both his school and social life this self-confidence and openness to meeting new people has helped expand his social networks and allows the pursuit of his passion for exercise and fitness to be comfortably incorporated into a busy life. For the future he believes that his positive experiences in work and in the community have equipped him to pursue a career and a life where mutual respect for the people around him will allow him to thrive.

still surprised about the depth of insight they gained about each other. In particular, the students described gaining a new understanding of the elders’ lives now and all the things they did before, and appreciated of the level of conversation they could have on a wide range of topics. The elders felt privileged to be given an insight into what’s really important to the young people in our community, and were empowered by knowing that “simply talking”, sometimes about difficult topics, could be so precious to both parties. We hope you enjoy the next installment of the profiles they wrote about each other.

Anti-poverty Week

(02) 6672 2238 142 McLEOD ST · MURWILLUMBAH

By Jonathon Howard

THIS ANTI-POVERTY WEEK (October 1117) members of Twin Town Day VIEW Club are calling on the community to recognise the often hidden cost of education and the impact it can have on children’s participation, confidence and future opportunities. Twin Towns Day VIEW Club helps seven children through The Smith Family’s Learning for Life education support program, which provides families with long term educational, financial, and personal assistance so that children have all the essentials needed to make the most of their education. Anti-Poverty Week focuses on the challenges facing families experiencing disadvantage and encourages Australians to better understand poverty and work together to address it. Through their support of The Smith Family, VIEW Clubs are helping to ensure more children can access the opportunities and resources they need to succeed at school. While education is often described as the pathway out of poverty, participating fully in education comes with a growing range of costs that many families are struggling to meet. Beyond school fees, families can face significant education-related expenses including

uniforms, shoes, stationery, school lunches, transport, digital devices, excursions, camps, sporting activities and essential items such as reading glasses. President Lorraine Gilkison of the Twin Towns Day VIEW Club said, ‘With one in six Australian children growing up in poverty, there has never been a more important time to support a child with their education.’ “The true cost of education extends well beyond what families may pay in school fees. It’s the accumulation of everyday expenses that can add up and become difficult to manage.” “No child should have to miss out on the essentials for their education, and this is why VIEW is so passionate about supporting the work of The Smith Family. Its evidence-based approach helps children experiencing disadvantage to overcome the educational inequality they face. They support students for the duration of their education, and this helps them build the confidence and skills needed to create better futures for themselves.” VIEW Clubs raised more than $1.5 million nationally last year to support The Smith Family’s important work, and they currently sponsor over 1,890+ students on the Learning for Life scholarship program.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals A Council stop work order was issued at 60 Tringa Street after illegal clearing

Tringa Street could stall By Jo Kennett

THE SHARES of the developer of a highly debate Tweed Heads site are in freefall and it could impact its Tringa Street development. Maas Group Holdings bought the 15 hectare site at 60 Tringa Street in 2022, with development consent granted in 1996, to develop a 37-lot industrial subdivision. The development, adjoining the ecologically sensitive Cobaki Creek in the Cobaki Estuary floodplain, has been mired in controversy over breaches of Tweed Shire Council consent conditions including clearing buffer zones and ignoring a Council stop work order. Maas has not responded to The Weekly’s queries about how its share price collapsed — plummeting from an all-time high of $7.14 on Tuesday, October 6, to $3.93 on Monday, October 12, a loss of around 45 per cent over five trading days – might affect the project. The selloff wiped out roughly $1.12 billion in market value. In the wake of the collapse, Maas put a $50 million shopping centre in Dubbo on the market. The collapse was triggered by the shock withdrawal of the $44 billion initial public offering (IPO) of Firmus Technologies,

an AI data-center developer, through lack of investor interest amid doubts over its valuation. Maas Group announced in February this year that it was selling its construction materials division for around $1.7 billion to pivot into AI infrastructure and take a stake in Firmus Group. Investors were not happy with the decision to sell off the highly profitable business on what some felt was an AI data centre gamble and its shares crashed more than 26 per cent in a day. Owner Wes Maas said at the time that investors “don’t understand” the sector. Maas Group holds a 3.2 per cent stake and a massive $1.1 billion commercial contract pipeline, and Wes Maas has also taken out a private stake. Wilson Asset Management, one of Maas Group’s largest institutional backers, did not sell, instead publicly defending Wes Maas, stating the market simply failed to digest an IPO that was “too quick and too big”. Before the trading halt last Friday, October 9, Maas Group bought back 1,422,338 of its own shares, for over $6.6 million to stabilize the plummeting stock price, but it didn’t work. Maas requested, and entered into, an immediate ASX trading halt, pending an announcement regarding the IPO of

Firmus and Maas Group’s electrical infrastructure contracts tied to it. That halt ended on Monday, October 12, after Wes Maas tried to reassure shareholders, telling them that Maas had already received $373 million payment against the roughly $1.1 billion in electrical infrastructure work orders for data centres. Maas Group shares continued to plummet, falling from $4.50 at opening to $3.93 at the end of trade, nearly 13 per cent in a day, as Firmus announced it would seek private funding instead of pocketing billions from the public market. Investors aren’t buying it though, and believe Firmus may struggle to finance its aggressive expansion, putting the remaining pipeline at serious risk. In Maas Group’s official ASX disclosure following the trading halt, the company tried to reassure the market that its active commercial contracts remain legally intact and that it still expects to deliver its commitments through 2027. Financial analysts are skeptical, with Maas needing huge up-front capital to progress developments like 60 Tringa Street. A credit squeeze could well mean the project stalls, or else Maas tries to on-sell the contentious site to another developer.

Deceased whale on Pottsville Beach, October 2024

Have your say on whale policy TWEED RESIDENTS are being invited to have their say on a new Council policy outlining how deceased whales and other large marine animals should be managed when washed ashore on local beaches. Tweed Shire Council has released a draft policy aimed at providing a clear and consistent approach to managing marine animal carcasses, with offshore towing identified as the preferred option where safe and practical. The policy considers public safety, cultural values, environmental impacts, ecological benefits and costs, with each incident to be assessed individually. Mayor Reece Byrnes said community feedback would be important in shaping the final policy. “These events can be complex, costly and emotional, and community views on the most appropriate response can vary,” Cr Byrnes said. “This draft policy provides a consistent and transparent approach to decision-making while recognising that each incident needs to be assessed on its own circumstances.” Cr Byrnes said offshore towing could be expensive and depended on suitable weather, tides and specialist equipment. “A key question we’re asking the community is whether offshore towing should be the preferred response when it is safe and practical,” he said. Residents can view the draft policy and provide feedback via: yoursaytweed.com.au/projects/whale-policy — until 4pm on Wednesday, November 11.

By Rada Campbell

IN A TOWN where shopfronts change and businesses come and go, Larkin Electrical has remained a Murwillumbah constant for almost six decades. What began in a backyard in 1967 has survived technological revolutions, major floods, COVID and a generational handover - without losing its local focus. Founder Jim Larkin initially ran the business from the family home and, Bill believes, the family station wagon. A large shed in Riverview Street followed, then shops in Nullum and Main streets before the business moved to its present Wharf Street home. Bill and his wife Toni took over when Jim retired around 2006. Bill runs the retail store and electrical contracting business, while Toni oversees lighting sales and purchasing, social media and administration. Together they grew the operation considerably, delivering major commercial projects across the Tweed and Gold Coast. These included Murwillumbah’s Tweed Valley IGA and nearby service station, as well as new buildings at Gold Coast Christian College. The products may look very different from those Jim sold, but Bill has watched old styles return. “Fashions, like anything, come back in full circle sometimes,” he told The Weekly. “The biggest change is LED and energy effi-

ciency. That allows lighting designers free rein to build all sorts of new lighting that you would never have imagined possible.” Longevity has also demanded resilience. Water came through the shop and damaged the family home in 2017, while Larkin electricians were moving through houses across the Tweed Valley, restoring power and helping make them liveable again. “It’s really hard to see people hurting,” Bill said. The record 2022 flood brought even greater damage. This time, experience helped: “We just pulled our socks up and got stuck in and helped our customers get back on their feet.” Larkin remained open as an essential service through COVID, but later downsized from about 12 staff to five. Rather than chase large remote projects, Bill and Toni chose to consolidate around the community that had supported the family for generations. “Let’s just focus on the Tweed and our customers in the Tweed,” Bill said. Asked the secret to lasting almost 60 years, Toni’s answer was simple: “Old-fashioned personal service.” It is an uncomplicated philosophy, but one that has kept customers returning while Murwillumbah- and the wider Tweed - continues to grow and change. For lighting, fans or electrical services, visit Larkin Lighting and Electrical at 12 Wharf Street, Murwillumbah.

Sweet Talk with guest Sunshine Sugar A LITTLE change to The Weekly’s popular Sweet Talk column this week, with the team from Sunshine Sugar’s Condong Mill stepping in to share some news from the NSW sugar industry, while regular columnist Robert Hawken returns next week. As the 2026 cane crushing season moves towards its conclusion, there’s plenty happening across the Tweed, as growers prepare for the next crop and the mills work towards wrapping up another busy season. The trusty Condong Mill continues to perform strongly, with average crushing rates exceeding 167 tonnes per hour. The mill is processing cane from across the Tweed, along with some from Rocky Point, with crushing expected to finish in early December, weather permitting. Despite persistent wet weather, Broadwater and Harwood mills have also performed well, with both expected to complete crushing by mid-November. Meanwhile, growers are already busy ratooning harvested paddocks and planting new crops, ensuring there is little downtime across the industry.

Representatives shared why the company chooses Sunshine Sugar, highlighting the quality of its product, reliable service and commitment to sustainable production. Sunshine Sugar CEO Adam Viertel said the event provided a valuable opportunity for growers to better understand where their sugar ends up. “It was a great opportunity for growers to hear directly from a major customer and see how the work they do on farm contributes to the products enjoyed by Australians every day,” Adam said. The strong turnout and positive atmosphere demonstrated the value of connecting growers directly with customers and building a greater understanding of the sugar supply chain. Sunshine Sugar thanked the Asahi Beverages team, growers and mill staff who helped make the inaugural event a success, with plans to continue the conversations at future gatherings.

Andrew 'Buster' Kirby INSET: The impressive line-up for Saturday 17th October

By Jonathon Howard

FROM LOCAL jobs and small businesses to schools and healthcare, artificial intelligence (AI) is set to change life in the Tweed Shire — but who is controlling it, and could it threaten our democracy? These questions will be explored by leading Australian technology expert Professor Daniel Angus at Murwillumbah’s Regent Theatre on Thursday, October 22. The event, Danger Zone: AI and its Potential Threat to Australian Democracy, is the final instalment of Politics of Life’s This Stuff Matters series for 2026. “Artificial intelligence has moved from the margins to the very centre of public debate,” organisers told The Weekly. “It’s now one of the most potentially disruptive technologies humanity has ever created — capable of extraordinary benefit, profound harm, and everything in between.” For Tweed residents, AI presents opportunities and challenges. Local businesses could streamline operations, farmers could benefit from improved technology, and healthcare professionals could use AI to assist with diagnosis and patient care. However, concerns remain about job losses, privacy, misinformation and the growing influence of global technology companies. “AI’s dangers are not abstract,” organisers said. “We’re talking about technologies that can turbocharge misinformation, deepen social division, and consolidate the power of Silicon Valley’s techno-authoritarian class.” Professor Angus, Professor of Digital Communication and Director of Queensland University of Technology’s Digital Media Research Centre,

br ings two decades of experience spanning computer science and social science. His presentation will examine how AI is reshaping democracy, employment and society, and whether governments can effectively regulate the technology. “Where do we draw the boundaries? How do governments rein in powerful corporate interests? What happens to jobs, livelihoods and civic life as automation accelerates?” organisers asked. “And how do we prevent AI from becoming a weapon of surveillance, manipulation or coercion?” While AI promises major advances in healthcare, education and productivity, organisers believe its potential consequences demand greater public scrutiny. “This is a chance to hear directly from someone who understands both the machinery of AI and the social worlds it is transforming,” they said. Politics of Life has thanked the Tweed community for supporting the series, adding: “Your presence is what keeps these conversations alive.” The event takes place at the Regent Theatre, Murwillumbah, on Thursday, October 22, with doors opening at 5pm. Food and refreshments will be available. Tickets are available online via: https://events. humanitix.com/danger-zone-ai-and-its-potential-threat-to-australian-democracy/tickets

FEW COMPOSERS HAVE explored the extremes of human emotion as powerfully as Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Love, passion, despair and tragedy run through his music, and all will be on display when the Northern Rivers Symphony Orchestra presents Tchaikovsky: Triumph and Tragedy at Tweed Heads on Sunday, October 25. The program, conducted by Dr Warwick Potter, brings together two of the Russian composer’s most celebrated works: the Romeo and Juliet Fantasy Overture, inspired by Shakespeare’s doomed lovers, and his final symphony, the haunting Symphony No. 6, Pathétique. Since there are no soloists in this concert, we thought we would shine a spotlight on one of the NRSO musicians. The orchestra is made up almost entirely of volunteers. Violist Brigette Smith joined the NRSO three years ago and has since taken on responsibilities beyond the concert stage. A mother of three, she manages the orchestra’s social media and coordinates its wind, brass and percussion players – demanding roles in an organisation whose musicians juggle rehearsals and performances with jobs and family life. “There are a few challenges in this position,” Brigette told The Weekly. “Firstly, as we are not a full-time orchestra, everything has to be managed around our everyday jobs and lives. “Secondly, social media comes with its own set of challenges, such as keeping the algorithm on your side and creating and maintaining connections with an ever-distracted audience. The only way to get noticed is to roll content out daily, but creating that content from a limited

Brigette fell in love with the mellow sound of the viola

rehearsal time is difficult. “Finally, all of our players have busy lives, teaching, managing their own families and performances, so it is inevitable that there are changes to our playing line-up and we need to be able to pivot quickly and fill any gaps.” Brigette began her musical life on the violin before discovering the viola in high school, drawn to the instrument whose mellow voice often provides the rich harmonic texture beneath an orchestra’s soaring melodies. “I feel very privileged to be playing in the NRSO,” Brigette said. “The music is of a fantastic quality, the players are brilliant and everyone has been absolutely delightful to spend time with. I think I really joined for the music, and stayed for the friends. We are so lucky and grateful to have a supportive audience so we can continue to do what we love!” Tchaikovsky: Triumph and Tragedy takes place at 2:30pm NSW time (1:30pm QLD) on Sunday, October 25, at the Tweed Heads Civic Centre, Brett Street, Tweed Heads. Tickets online at nrso.com.au, or at the door if not sold out.

Sunset Groove CAMERON BRACKEN says you’re never too old to entertain and learn something new. At 54, he wanted to try stand-up comedy, so he attended comedy courses with Fiona McGary, Mandy Nolan and Ellen Briggs. “My style is musical comedy. I used to write jingles for TV and Radio, before becoming a songwriter. I now use these skills in my comedy,” Cameron said. “My songs start soft and sweet and end with a pie in the face”. Cameron will be appearing at the Spec Bar Miami and the Gold Coast Comedy Club in December. After 30 years as a professional musician, Cameron is also in a Duo with Tiffany Rae called Sunset Groove. Cameron plays piano, guitar and sings. Tiffany who is a well-known local performer and singing coach, sings and plays percussion. “Tiff is one of the best female vocalists around which helps us focus on great harmonies together,” Cameron said. Adding to all this, Cameron has returned to Tweed Theatre Company for their next hit production “Counting Down the 80’s”, which runs from 6th Nov to 22nd Nov at Tweed Heads

Civic Centre. Tickets are selling fast (Book now at Tweedtheatre.com. au). Cameron will be singing hits from Wham, John Farnham, Foreigner and more. “My first gig was in 1988 with a high school band, so I know the 80’s stuff well…it was an amazing time for a budding singer songwriter,” he said. Finally, he fits this all in with his day job as a Registered Psychologist with Living Well Psychology in Tweed Heads. “Psychology is a balance between art and science…Recently, I find I’m working with people from a creative, entertainment background to help them overcome performance anxiety, creative blocks and regulating emotions in a tough industry”.

Adam Green with three gold medals

Gold for Tweed Coast Meats By Madeleine Murray

there for lamb and our chicken comes from the Glasshouse Mountains. “We make the sausages, burgers, and prepared products on site. We have a smoke oven here where we smoke all our own meats.” There is also a great range of seafood, including prawns from the Seadar Bay Trawler in Tweed Heads, and oysters from Coffin Bay, Duck Creek and Merimbula. The fresh sashimi-grade tuna, kingfish, swordfish, and snapper come from commercial fishermen in Byron. Tweed Coast Meats supplies some of the best restaurants in the Northern Rivers, such as Paper Daisy, Bistro Livi, Farm and Co, and some smaller restaurants in Cabarita. As well as contributing to the community, Adam is a family man: “I have four beautiful children – Evelyn, Maverick, Isla and Harper ages 12, 10, 6 and 3. The oldest Evelyn has just started working some Sundays at the store and loves to help and be a part of what we are doing at Tweed Coast Meats.” Tweed Coast Meats, in the Cabarita Beach Shopping Centre, is open seven days a week.

TWEED COAST MEATS of Cabarita just keeps winning awards. Owner Adam Green went to the Australian Meat Industry Council NSW/ACT Meat Excellence Awards Gala Dinner in Sydney on Saturday, September 26, and came home with three Gold Medals across the Sausage King Competition and Best Butcher’s Burger Competition. Adam, 39, has owned Tweed Coast Meats for nine years, and recently decided to refurbish the shop which re-opened on July 18. Adam designed the new spacious, elegant, shop himself and chose all its features. The 105m² store fe el s l i ke a swank y emporium with great produce. Black and gold marble walls, hanging brass lamps, and soft crimson lighting are a

perfect setting for the amazing range of meats, seafood, cheeses, olives, condiments and prize-winning products from around the country and beyond. The beautiful red and silver dry-aging chamber features a dry-aged meat display, and a whole Italian prosciutto with a minimum age of 26 months. “That prosciutto has a lot of strong depth of flavour, and really creamy fat,” Adam told The Weekly. “We’ve just released our first 30-day dryaged ribeye on the bone and T-Bones from the dry ageing chamber. By carefully controlling temperature, humidity and airflow, the beef is given time to naturally develop deeper flavour and improved tenderness. It’s not a fast process, but that’s exactly the point.” Adam and his team take a close interest in the provenance of everything in the shop. “We try and source the most premium produce in Australia,” he said. “Our beef mainly comes from the Northern Rivers, and southeast Queensland. Our pork comes from southeast Queensland and Goondiwindi. Our lamb comes out of Tassie because it’s the best pastures down

TWEED BUSINESS owners and entrepreneurs are being encouraged to connect, learn and discover new opportunities at the Tweed Business Forum on Thursday, October 29, at Twin Towns Conference and Function Centre.** Delivered through Tweed Shire Council’s Succeed in the Tweed initiative as part of NSW Small Business Month, the forum will focus on innovation, resilience and practical strategies for business growth. With 8,936 small businesses contributing more than $1.4 billion to the Tweed economy, Mayor Reece Byrnes said supporting local operators was vital. “Council knows that small business is the backbone of our community and a key driver of local economic prosperity,” Cr Byrnes said. “The Tweed Business Forum brings business owners together with the networks, expertise and support they need to grow, adapt and succeed, helping build a stronger and more resilient economy.” Murwillumbah business owner Sharon Mutulick, from Bolt and Buckle, said the forum was an opportunity to look beyond daily operations. “When you’re immersed in daily operations, it can be difficult to find time to reflect on the bigger picture,” she said. “The forum provides the space to step back, gain a fresh perspective and identify new business development possibilities.” Topics include using artificial intelligence to improve efficiency, Council procurement opportunities and potential supply chain connections linked to the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Tickets cost $20 plus booking fee, with registrations available via: tweed.nsw\.gov.au/tweed-business-forum**.

TWEED DISTRICT PROPERTY MAINTENANCE

New name, same rock-solid service ROCKWALL CREATIONS is turning over a new rock, with the trusted local business changing its name to Tweed District Property Maintenance as it looks to expand its service of property care for the Tweed and surrounds. Previously known for their outstanding retaining wall expertise, the business is embracing a new identity that reflects a focus on helping local property owners maintain and improve their homes and outdoor spaces. The name may be changing, but the focus remains on delivering practical solutions, dependable workmanship and personalised service under the expert guidance of owner Roland (Rolly) Otte. Rolly said retaining walls remain an important part of the business’s background, particularly in the Tweed, where sloping blocks, heavy rainfall and challenging ground conditions can make effective landscaping and structural support essential, but his team can also help in other spaces. “Whether it’s improving an outdoor area, addressing ageing property features or planning improvements around the home, choosing experienced local tradespeople can make all the difference,” he said. “The transition to Tweed District Property Maintenance also provides an opportunity for existing Rockwall Creations customers to reconnect with the business under its new name.” From smaller improvements to more

substantial outdoor projects, good planning and quality workmanship can help prevent costly problems down the track. With the Tweed’s subtropical climate bringing its share of wear and tear, regular property upkeep is especially important. Read some of the outstanding feedback:“Roly (Rockwall Creations) worked incredibly hard to create my dream garden,” happy customer Aila Aaltonen said. “He took care of the whole process, from council permits, organising machinery, materials and access, and was able to explain it to me in a way that I understood. “He explored various options to suit my budget and provided quotes to reflect each option. From the moment I booked the job, Rolly took care of every detail which allowed me to enjoy watching the garden transform.” Tweed District Property Maintenance is looking forward to building on the Rockwall Creations name while establishing its new identity in the local trades industry. To find out more or discuss your next project, contact Tweed District Property Maintenance (formerly Rockwall Creations) on 0408 860 543 or visit www.rockwallcreations.com.au.

Get ready for the Murwillumbah Show By Jonathon Howard and Sandra Hawken

EXCITEMENT IS building for the 2026 Murwillumbah Show, with a dedicated group of volunteers working behind the scenes to ensure one of the Tweed Valley’s most-loved community events is bigger, brighter and bursting with local talent. The countdown is on for the two-day agricultural spectacular at the iconic Murwillumbah Showground on Friday and Saturday, October 30 and October 31, with organisers preparing to welcome families, exhibitors and visitors from across the region. Murwillumbah Show Society president Sandra Hawken told The Weekly preparations were gathering pace, particularly in the popular Dawes Pavilion, where hundreds of exhibits are expected to showcase the creativity and agricultural talents of the Tweed community. “Things are getting busy for the band of volunteers organising this year’s Murwillumbah Show,” Mrs Hawken said. “One of the very popular areas of the Show is the Dawes Pavilion which fills with a diversity of exhibits and displays.” From delicious home-baked treats and preserves to prize-winning fruit and vegetables, photography, fine arts and colourful craft creations, the Pavilion promises to be a hive of activity. Local schools have been invited to showcase their students’ artwork, while the hardworking ladies of the Murwillumbah Country Women’s

Association (CWA) are already registering entries, organising judges and planning displays. Mrs Hawken said two exciting new competition sections had been added this year, both offering monetary prizes. The Rikki Funari Youth Craft Award has been established in memory of a young person who loved arts and crafts. Young people aged 13 to 17 can enter handmade creations across four categories, including paper, textiles and yarn, jewellery, and ceramics or polymer clay. The winners will become the first recipients of the special perpetual award. Another new addition is the Heart of Agriculture in the Tweed photography competition, sponsored by the NSW Farmers Association, with a $200 first prize. “Community members of all ages are encouraged to enter images that capture the essence of agriculture in our local area,” Mrs Hawken said. While the Show continues to evolve with changing interests and technologies, its rich agricultural history remains an important part of the celebrations. Mrs Hawken said a look back through the Show’s historical records revealed some fascinating competition categories that have disappeared over the generations. Among them was the humble mangold wurzel, a type of beet once commonly grown as cattle fodder but also used for cooking and even brewing alcohol during the 1800s. Although the Murwillumbah Show has fea-

Murwillumbah Show volunteers from last year (above) are again gearing up for another exciting year of one of Australia's longest running and best regional shows!

tured wines and brews since its earliest days, there is no historical record of a mangold wurzel ale competition. And while there won’t be any mangold wurzels on the judging table this year, there are plenty of other quirky categories to keep exhibitors entertained. These include handcrafted poultry made from any material, flower arranging, millinery and homemade preserves. Best of all, entering exhibits in the Dawes

Pavilion is completely free. With the big weekend fast approaching, Mrs Hawken is encouraging residents of all ages to get creative, enter a competition and help celebrate the region’s agricultural heritage and community spirit. The Murwillumbah Show will be held on October 30 and 31 at the Murwillumbah Showground. For competition schedules and entry details, visit the Murwillumbah Show website or email secretary@murwillumbahshow.com.

The success of both schools is also a credit to the students’ dedication, teamwork and the

support of their teachers, coaches and families. With both North Coast titles now firmly in Tweed hands, the talented young players will be flying the flag for the region when they compete against NSW’s best primary school touch football teams. The Weekly would like to congratulate both schools on their outstanding achievements and wishes the boys and girls every success at the NSW State Finals.

Win for Pottsville & Wilson fires for Cudgen By Jo Kennett

POTTSVILLE CRICKET Club made a perfect start to the 2026/27 season, winning all three senior grades, while Tweed Banora Colts and Cudgen also celebrated two victories in the opening round on Saturday, October 10. In the LJ Hooker League, Pottsville defeated Terranora Lakes by five wickets after bowling the visitors out for 143. Waheed Hasan top-scored for Terranora Lakes with 58 before being caught off Nathan Wilson, who finished with 2/4 from three overs. Club debutant Billy Smith also impressed with 3/32, helping restrict Terranora Lakes to

a modest total. Harrison O’Brien led Pottsville’s reply with 58, sharing an 80-run partnership with Giles Creedon (38) as the Pelicans reached 5-144 with nine overs to spare. O’Brien was caught by Hasan off Cory Fisher. Pottsville’s second grade chased down the Murbah Ninjas’ 177, finishing at 5/178. Troy Thoms and Nathan Metzy claimed three wickets each, while an unbeaten 70-run partnership between Guy O’Brien and Jarrah O’Brien guided the side home in the 37th over. Third grade completed the clean sweep, reaching Terranora’s 198 at 2/199. Jack Slatts starred with an unbeaten 75, supported by Mark Wheelahan’s 49 and Jesse

Wilman’s quick-fire 33. Tweed Banora Colts also had a great opening round, with first and second grade getting wins. In first grade against Casino at home, Tom Byrnes produced a standout unbeaten century of 103, while Ajay Kumar claimed an impressive 5/43. Jamie Bennett’s unbeaten 62 helped first grade secure its win, and Blake Archer’s 58 not out proved crucial in second grade’s successful chase against Terranora Lakes. Third grade fought hard in a match against Terranora that went down to the wire. Cudgen Hornets launched their season with an impressive run chase, defeating Marist Brothers Cricket Club, which scored 6-222, by reaching

9-223 in 38.4 overs. Hayden Wilson starred with a blistering 86 off 50 balls, smashing four sixes and 12 fours before being bowled by Blake Collings. Jamie Wilson (2-47) and Caleb Ziebell (2-42) led the Hornets’ bowling effort, helping set up a successful chase and an encouraging start to the season. Murwillumbah Cricket Club isn’t fielding a first-grade side in this season’s LJ Hooker League, having stepped down last season to focus on rebuilding. Keep an eye out in The Weekly for your local cricket reports.

Real Estate FROM COAST TO COUNTRY

Agent of the Week - ANNE BESGROVE

THIS WEEK we catch up with top agent Anne Besgrove, Licensed Real Estate Agent and Stock and Station Agent at First National Murwillumbah. With more than 18 years of real estate experience and as a fourth-generation local, Anne brings extensive knowledge of the Tweed Valley and its community. Known for her genuine care, exceptional customer service and personalised approach, she builds lasting relationships with buyers and sellers. Anne listens to her clients’ needs, creating tailored marketing campaigns and providing dedicated support to help achieve the best possible results throughout every stage of their property journey. We caught up with Anne to find out more.

HAVE YOU ALWAYS WORKED IN REAL ESTATE

Before entering real estate, I worked in banking and lending and also owned a coffee shop. Both experiences gave me a strong foundation in customer service, building relationships and understanding people’s needs, which have been invaluable throughout my real estate career.

Open Homes

I’ve always enjoyed working with people, and real estate gave me the opportunity to help them through one of life’s biggest decisions. Whether it’s finding someone their new home or helping a family move on to their next chapter, there’s something really rewarding about being part of that journey.

WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT WORKING IN REAL ESTATE, AND WHAT ARE SOME OF THE CHALLENGES? Without a doubt, it’s the people. I love meeting new people, building relationships and helping buyers find a place they can call home. Living and working in the Tweed Valley, I’ve also had the pleasure of discovering some truly beautiful properties along the way. Like any industry, real estate comes with its challenges, particularly navigating changing market conditions and managing expectations. But finding the right outcome for my clients makes it all worthwhile.

IS THERE ANY PARTICULAR TYPE OF PROPERTY YOU CONSIDER YOURSELF MOST EXPERT IN OR PASSIONATE ABOUT? • 123 Tunnell Rd, Stokers Siding, 11–11.30am • 28 Tombonda Rd, Murwillumbah, 11–11.30am • 454 Crabbes Creek Rd, Crabbes Creek, 12-

Rural and lifestyle properties are definitely my passion. We’re incredibly fortunate to live in such a beautiful part of the world, and I love showcasing everything our region has to offer. From picturesque acreage to unique country homes, there’s something special about helping people find their own piece of the Tweed Valley.

WHO ARE YOU SEEING BUYING PROPERTIES AT THE MOMENT, AND WHERE ARE THEY MOSTLY COMING FROM? We’re seeing a strong mix of buyers, with many local sellers looking to upsize into larger homes or lifestyle properties, while others are choosing to downsize. There’s also continued interest from buyers relocating to the region, particularly those looking for a change of pace and the lifestyle our beautiful area offers.

WHAT’S THE BIGGEST CHANGE YOU HAVE SEEN ACROSS THE MARKET IN RECENT TIMES? One of the biggest changes has been seeing fewer buyers coming up from Sydney and Melbourne compared with previous years. We’re now seeing more activity from local buyers who are looking to make their next move within the region, whether that’s upsizing,

Shop 2 /41-45 Murwillumbah Street, Murwillumbah Phone: (02) 6672 2499

WHAT IS YOUR BEST ADVICE FOR SELLERS? Correct pricing is everything. It’s important to position your property realistically in the current market to attract genuine buyers and achieve the best possible result. A wellpresented property, combined with the right marketing strategy and an experienced local agent, can make all the difference.

WHAT ABOUT BUYERS? ANY ADVICE?

People often ask, “When is the best time to buy?” My advice is simple: the best time to buy is when you’re financially ready and you’ve found the right property. Don’t get too caught up trying to predict the market. Do your research, understand your budget and be prepared to act when the right opportunity comes along.

WHAT DO YOU GET UP TO WHEN YOU AREN’T BUSY WORKING?

When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me spending time with family and friends, riding my horse or heading out for a run. I love the outdoors and making the most of our beautiful country lifestyle. We’re lucky to live where we do, and I wouldn’t have it any other way!

HARPER HOUSE A Beachside Sale With a Story Worth Sharing 15 Daybreak Boulevard, Casuarina

Some property sales are remembered for the result. Others are remembered for the difference they make. The recent $5 million sale of this exceptional Casuarina beachfront residence marks a special chapter for Witheriff Group and local charity Hundred4Harper. The story began when Nick Witheriff donated a commission-free property sale to a charity auction, with the owners placing the winning bid of $65,000 in support of childhood brain cancer research. As Hundred4Harper founder Lee Dowdall reflects: “What began as a simple gesture quickly became something far more powerful, highlighting the impact of community and locally driven initiatives.” Affectionately known as ‘Harper House’, in honour of Harper Dowdall, this remarkable sale represents far more than an exceptional property result.

00501 Witheriff Group FP

An exceptional property. An extraordinary community. A legacy that extends well beyond the sale. WITHERIFF GROUP Proudly supporting Hundred4Harper and the fight against DIPG.
