Two major milestones have been completed and it was one
of the first official engagements for newly elected Mayor, Cr
David Edwards.
The new state of the art BMX track at the Bacchus Marsh
Racecourse and Recreation Reserve was officially opened
and coincided with the first competition meet of the BMX
Club on Sunday 17 November at 9am.
Also, the completion of the new oval, housing two-soccer
fields and football, is the first oval to be built for many
decades.
Cr Edwards said Les Stewart from the BMX club came to
council some nine-years ago with a vision.
“He has done a lot of hard work over that time and look at
what the result is.
“This is $9 million worth of work in total and is just the start.
For our projected population we are something like three-
soccer fields and three-ovals short. The BMX track alone was
over $400,000, with a quarter of that cost contributed by the
State government.”
Cr Edwards said Bacchus Marsh is one of the fastest growing
towns in Victoria and has a projected population of 80,000 by
2041.
“The volunteer work done by organisations such as the
BMX, soccer and cricket clubs are immensely important.
“We have $1.3 million worth of oval here now, along with
contributions from the state government; and the pavilion is
about to begin construction with the rest of the $9 millions in
works will happen in the nest 12-18 months.
“Things are really starting to move in Moorabool,” he said.
Member for Melton Steve McGhie attended on behalf of
Michaela Settle (Member for Buninyong) and said, “she has
another BMX track to open today, in Sebastopol.”
“BMX tracks must be the flavour at the moment, but what
it provides is good competition standards and excellent
facilities.
“I am pleased the government has provided $200,000 for
this complex; would love to say it was more, but we will keep
chipping away at it to try and get more money for sporting
facilities in this electorate, particularly the Moorabool Shire.”
Mr McGhie congratulated the BMX club for their efforts and
holding their first competition.
“You can see the excitement on all the faces, some quite
young and I’d love to have a go at it,” he said.
BMX Club President Les Stewart said Moorabool Shire
Council definitely took on board what the community needs
with a vision for the future.
“Council is very committed to this project and we have
enjoyed working alongside them,” he said.
The new sporting facilities are located at the Bacchus Marsh
Racecourse Recreation Reserve.

Slower pace
planned
By Helen Tatchell
A letter is on its way to
Vicroads from Moorabool
Council as they plan to ap-
ply to permanently reduce
the speed limit to 40kph in
the main street of Ballan.
If Council get the go-ahead,
the speed limit would be
40kph on Inglis street, be-
tween Stead street and just
past Cowie street heading
west, at the hospital carpark
entrance.
A council spokesperson
said it is not just Vicroads
who will receive a letter.
“As a part of the Speed Zone
lient: Cross Roads Trading

ate: 20/12/17
cRoads, Council has written
ock Up No.: 3
to relevant emergency ser-
vice departments advising
of its intention, and we are
also seeking community
feedback on this proposal.”
Ewen Nevett, (MSC) Man-
ager Engineering Services
confirmed the need for feed-
back from the community
and emergency services on
the proposal.
Trading Hours: Monday to Friday 8am–5pm
Saturday 8am–4pm Sunday 10am–2pm
461 Old Melbourne Road, Ballan
“The proposal is to improve
the safety for all road users,
in particular the increasing
number of pedestrians,” he
said.
“With the completion of the
streetscape upgrade works
more and more pedestrians
are expected to move around
this precinct, that has a time-
based 40 km/h school speed
zone, a school crossing and
two formalised pedestrian
crossings.
“Reducing road trauma is
a key priority and lowering
the speed limit over this
short section of Inglis Street,
together with the other safe-
ty measures already in place,
will provide greater safety
outcomes for pedestrians,
cyclists and motorists using
this road.”
Feedback is being taking by
Council until Wednesday 4
December and if you would
like to have your say, please
comment on their facebook
page, email, or phone Cus-
tomer Service on 5366 7100.

Roads crumbling over
unprecedented use
By Helen Tatchell
You don’t have to be a Rhodes scholar
to know there is an enormous amount
of money needed to fix local roads.
Millbrook in the shire’s west is just
one area that has seen an influx of
heavy road traffic usage, including an
increase of truck movements.
Residents are angry, annoyed and fed
up.
Mark Weigall lives on Old Melbourne
road at Millbrook and told the
Moorabool News the roads are
suffering.
“The state of our roads is suffering
from 18-months of windfarm trucks
and 12-months of rail works (Millbrook
Passing Loop),” he said.
Mr Weigall said an estimated 30,000
- 40,000 tonnes of blue metal was
carted by B-Double vehicles down Old
Melbourne Road and Spreadeagle road.
“The Victorian Government wants the
publicity for these projects but when
finished, wipe their hands of them.
“Both the windfarm and rail projects
have destroyed our local roads and left
them in a state of disrepair.”
And does he have concerns if council
should pick up the tab?
“The Moorabool council doesn’t have
the funds to fix the mess. They could
barely maintain roads with local traffic
use,” Mr Weigall said.
“Vic Rail assured us at the end of
August they would reinstate the
road by mid-September; nothing has
happened.” Gerard White shows just a small section of a dilapidated road around Millbrook.
Mr Weigall said, “local members need

Deputy dumped
By Helen Tatchell

The Mayor of Moorabool will rely on all

councillors to take on the unofficial role
of deputy mayor in 2019/20, rather than a
‘voted-in’ councillor for the position.
It is not a requirement of local government
to appoint a deputy mayor however, over the
past few years councillors voted to appoint
such, but not at the last mayoral election.
At the Statutory and Annual Appointments
meeting held on Wednesday 13 November,
Cr Paul Tatchell moved to not elect a deputy.
“In the last year of council, I move a motion
to not run a deputy mayor.”
This was seconded by West Ward Councillor
Tom Sullivan.
Cr Tonia Dudzik objected.
“The Mayor cannot be in all places at once.
Good to have a second person,” she said.
Cr Tatchell raised his concerns.
“In the last year of the council, a number of
councillors will be seeking re-election (2020).
“The assistance over last couple of years of
deputy major has been invaluable.
“I think all councillors should have
opportunity to show their faces around the
shire as one, not just one,” he said.
Cr Sullivan agreed.
“We have reached a point in time where we
have a very mature council. It spreads the
load a bit – the mayor can nominate who he
wishes going into the last year as a council.”
“The deputy mayor is useful for growing
and learning,” Cr Bingham said.
Outgoing deputy Cr John Keogh said if he
put himself in the mayor’s shoe’s he would
want a deputy mayor.
“Can’t be in two places at once. My
understanding is in local government it will
become a Statutory position.”
Cr John Keogh was the last Deputy Mayor
for the 2016/2020 term.
The Moorabool News asked Cr Edwards if
he thought all councillors need to be more
visual at council and community events, not
just the Ward they are elected to.
“All Councillors represent the whole shire
of Moorabool,” he said.
“This should never change and whilst this
year Council elected not to have a single
Deputy, this role will be performed by all
Councillors.”
Cr Edwards was in the Chair as newly
appointed Mayor and called a vote with
Crs Keogh and Bingham voting against, Crs
Tatchell, Sullivan and Dudzik voting for the
motion.
“I’ve jumped ship,” Cr Dudzik told the
Chair.
The motion was carried.
Raids reap
rewards
In a week of action, police targeted high-
volume crime, aggravated burglaries and
drug trafficking, resulting in 21-arrests that
included a 17 and 72-year old.
The record haul saw firearms, motorbikes,
cars and drugs amongst items seized by
Western Region police during a four-day
operation in Ballarat and Bacchus Marsh.
30 firearms including two .22 calibre
handguns, shotguns, a long-arm rifle
and two imitation firearms were some of
the items seized in a number of warrants
executed at residential properties.
Other items seized included; four stolen
motorbikes, including a Harley Davidson,
seven stolen cars, five cars seized as proceeds
of crime, ammunition, ecstasy tablets, Xantax
tablets, heroin, MDMA, cannabis, cocaine,
LSD, chainsaws, nail guns, a concrete
leveller, generators and tradesman’s tools.
Police said the arrests are part of Operation
Incurable, involving police from all
divisions including Divisional Response
Units, Criminal Investigation Units, Sexual
Offences Child Abuse Investigation Teams,
Family Violence Investigation Units, Crime
Scene Units and Uniform officers.
Ballarat Investigation & Response Manager
Inspector Greg Payne said this is the largest
seizure of guns in the region.
“This is the biggest haul of weapons in this
area and the result of four days of executing
warrants across the region.
“We’re taking these weapons off the streets
and ensuring they’re not in the hands of the
wrong people,” he said.
“As a result, this’ll have a positive impact on
crime in our region and keep the community
safe.”
Of the 21-arrested, four were from Bacchus
Marsh.
Two men and one woman will face court in
January 2020 and the 72-year old male was
cautioned for possess drug of dependence.
• A 40-year-old Bacchus Marsh man has
been charged with possessing explosives,
possess firearms, cultivate narcotic plant,
possess drug of dependence.
• A 27-year-old Bacchus Marsh woman has
been charged with cultivate narcotic plant
and possess drug of dependence.
• A 43-year-old Bacchus Marsh man has
been charged with cultivate narcotic plant
and possess drug of dependence.

Worst road,
or just
one of?
By Helen Tatchell
A local road in Ballan
“could very well be known
as one of the worst roads” in
the town after a petition was
presented at the November 6
Council meeting.
Council received the peti-
tion containing 53-signa-
tures from residents and vis-
itors of Hogans Road, Ballan.
The petition stated,”Hogans
Road could very well be known
as one of the worst roads in
Ballan.
“The purpose of this petition
is to create awareness of the
bad condition of Hogans Road
Ballan. As it is a built up,
residential area, it is considered
too narrow and many times
unsafe when passing other
vehicles at various points on
this road. Given the traffic and
houses surrounding this area
– the road and its surrounding
residents deserve an upgrade,”
it read.
A report will now be
prepared by officers for
Council’s consideration per-
taining to the petitioners’
request for resurfacing to
be undertaken on Hogans
Road, Ballan.

“We went up at about 8.30am or so, the fire was

“All our properties are on natural gas…so the

A little bit fast with
no licence
By Caitlin Bewley
(2nd Yr Swinburne Uni)
A Magistrate has told a man he “might need to slow down”
after caught driving whilst suspended and speeding.
Gregory Kavadas appeared before Magistrate Gregory
Robinson in the Bacchus Marsh Magistrate’s court on Friday
15 November to face charges of driving whilst suspended
and speeding.
The court heard Kavadas was traveling north on Fitzroy
street Darley on July 28 this year when he was intercepted
by police, allegedly travelling 13km/h over the speed limit.
According to the prosecution, Acting Sergeant Sam Young,
the accused was travelling at 63km/h in a 50km/h zone.
When intercepted by police, Kavadas’ identity was confirmed
and noted his licence had previously been suspended.
The prosecution said when the accused was asked why
he was speeding he gave “no reason for it” and said he
“shouldn’t have been speeding”.
Kavadas’ licence suspension was allegedly supposed to
run from July 25 – January 24 2020, he told the court his
“suspension started three days prior so [he] didn’t know,”
and he was still yet to receive a letter.
“I thought the letter would get to you about a month
before [the commencement of the suspension],” Magistrate
Robinson said.
Magistrate Robinson told Kavadas he “might need to slow
down”, placing him on a six-month adjourned undertaking
and ordering a $500 donation to the Bacchus Marsh CFA.

Letters to
the Editor

Dear Editor,
Damien Strangio`s letter (MN 19 Nov)
requires a response.
Factual errors appear to exist.
Expert Arboriculturist evidence (Mr John
Patrick) in the hearing proceedings in 2011
suggested that the expected life of the five (5)
trees involved was for 20-years not 40; that
was eight (8) years ago.
Where did the four-lane highway appear in
any of the proceedings?
Legal and accepted petition against the
Woolpack extension according to the
submissions in the proceedings, was 1600 not
10,000.
I have replied to Mr Strangio`s comments
because he prompted me to go online
(Google) and research what really took place
some eight-years or more ago.
Guess what?
Both the Moorabool Shire and Vic Roads
supported the Woolpack Road extension plan
as it was the most acceptable and obvious
option.
We are about to start the year 2020 with huge
traffic congestion problems facing our town,
and it will only get worse.
I recommend anyone with similar concerns
to my own, to Google - “Avenue of Honour

Walking path rejected
By Helen Tatchell
Many community groups
would be happy to hear their
projects have been funded
by Moorabool Council un-
der Round 2 (August) of the
Community Grants Program,
except one.
Lal Lal Advisory Committee
required $4475 of a $10,885
total project cost for ‘Rasmus-
sen Walk’, which would have
been to develop a walking
path from Lal Lal Falls Re-
serve Park to Rasmussen’s
Hut.
West Ward councillor Tom
Sullivan said, “it is not good
enough.”
“The project may need a Cul-
tural Heritage Study? This
can cost up to $20,000 and is a
bit late in the day to be doing
this at the 11th hour,” he said.
“I am really angry.”
Sally Jones (MSC General
Manager) said, “we are work-
ing with the group in regard
to cost, and this process is not
our own.”
The council report in regard
to the rationale behind the
ineligibility read, “A Cultural
Heritage Management Plan
may be required for this pro-
ject. Officers will support the
committee to investigate the
further before next round of
Community Grants.”
The next Community Grants
applications will be in March
2020 with this recent Round 2
totalling $XXXXXXX, that in-
cluded Community Strength-
ening, Arts and Culture,
Events, Sustainability and
Environment and Commu-
nity Development Fund.

flict of interest and was not in

ommendation to be received.

Ballot Jail for reoccurring offences

packs in
By Caitlin Bewley
(2nd Yr Swinburne Uni)

A man is behind bars after the Bacchus Marsh

Magistrate’s court heard his 20-consolidated

the mail charges on Thursday November 14.

Voters in Gordon, Blakeville,
Blackwood, Greendale and surrounding
communities should check the
mailboxes this week for ballot packs
for the Moorabool Shire Council,
Woodlands Ward by election.
Returning Officer Mark Taylor is
encouraging people to vote as early as
possible.
‘With the whole election being
conducted by post, it’s incredibly
important voters complete and return
their ballot material as soon as possible
to make sure their vote counts,’ said Mr
Taylor.
Ballot papers must be in the mail or
hand-delivered to the election office by
6pm Friday 13 December. Voters should
consider local mail clearance times to
ensure their vote counts.
Voters who haven’t received their ballot
pack by Wednesday 4 December should
call 1300 202 885 during business hours
to arrange an alternative.
Candidates who have nominated for the
by-election are listed in the ballot packs
and can also be viewed at vec.vic.gov.au.
Voting is compulsory for voters who
were on the State roll for this election
at 4pm Friday 18 October 2019—State-
enrolled voters who don’t vote may
be fined. Voters aged 70 or older and
council enrolled voters are encouraged
to vote but will not be fined if they don’t
vote.
The offending began back in 2018 when
21-year-old Riley Bartlett-Smith attended a
Bacchus Marsh service station on Grant Street
with a co-accuser.
It was alleged by the prosecution, Sergeant
Michael Patterson, that Bartlett-Smith and the
co-accused filled up a motor vehicle with $15
worth of unleaded petrol and failed to pay.
The prosecution told the court when Bartlett-
Smith was interviewed by police he told them
he “tried three times to pay but didn’t know
the PIN”.
Bartlett-Smith was intercepted by police in
Bacchus Marsh on June 18 of last year, and a
search was conducted on his motor vehicle.
The court heard police found a baton on the
front footwell with the accused admitting
that it was his.
Bartlett-Smith told police at the time of the
offending he “thought it looked cool and was
just taking it home.”
Two-weeks later Bartlett-Smith was travelling
along Griffith street in a gold Holden station
wagon, with the prosecution alleging the
accused was travelling at a fast rate of speed
and failed to stop when police sounded their
sirens.
Sergeant Patterson said the accused
“[overtook] a vehicle over double white lines
on Griffiths street.”
When Bartlett-Smith was interviewed in
Geelong about this incident, he said he “didn’t
stop because [he] doesn’t get along with
Bacchus Marsh police.”
“They can eat a d***. Bacchus Marsh police
treat me like I’m a scum bag and that,” the
court heard.
The offending continued over the next
12-months, with the court hearing Bartlett-
Smith attended a Hopetoun Park residence
and stole a Toyota Yaris sedan worth $6000
on 3 October 2018. However, CCTV footage
caught Bartlett-Smith driving from the house
and the key-remote used to open the car was
obtained from a burglary conducted on July
18.
Four hours after the car was stolen, two
registration plates were stolen from a vehicle
in Fitzroy street Darley. The stolen vehicle was
later located on Geelong – Ballan road, Ballan.
Bartlett-Smith was arrested and interviewed
at Waurn Ponds police station.
On July 11 this year, Bartlett-Smith was again
intercepted by police after they discovered
false plates on a vehicle. He made no attempt
to stop with the court hearing he proceeded
through a stop sign and was travelling at a
fast rate, causing an accident with another
vehicle.
Bartlett-Smith made no attempt to assist
the victim and fled from the scene up Young
street in Bacchus Marsh.
Police discovered a partly eaten sausage
roll in the vehicle and upon checking CCTV
footage, it revealed Bartlett-Smith purchased
such from a Main street service station and
showed him to be the sole occupant in the
vehicle, and unlicensed.
He was arrested in Bacchus Marsh and gave
a “no comment” interview with police.
The accused’s lawyer told the court his client
had been in custody since August 29, telling
Magistrate Ron Saines of Bartlett-Smith’s
future prospects once he is released from jail.
“He understands the consequences of doing
these kinds of things again and doesn’t want
to go back to jail,” the accused’s lawyer said.
Magistrate Saines told Bartlett-Smith he
“failed to cooperate and failed to re-engage
[in a community corrections order] as well as
a whole lot of reoffending.”
“You have some plans to make something
better of your life once you get out of prison.
I’m not sure if that’s just today, but time will
tell,” Magistrate Saines continued.
Magistrate Saines told Bartlett-Smith he
wanted to “send a message of denunciation
and deterrence” to him.
Bartlett-Smith was sentenced to five-months
imprisonment, fined $1300 and to be placed
on a Community Corrections Order after his
release from prison.

Bacchus Marsh Cricket Club By Bruce Thomas

McIntyre 1st XI
It was third (Romsey) versus fourth (Bacchus Marsh)
when the Bulls met their opposition at Romsey on the
weekend. Captain/Coach James Lidgett won the toss and
had no hesitation in having a hit. Alex Porter (19) was the

first wicket down with the score at 39. James Lidgett and
Brett McGrath took the score to 89 when both McGrath
and Lidgett were out in rapid succession. Coach Lidgett
admitted the Bulls were behind the eight ball at 3/89 but
he need not have worried. Kasun Suriaratchie and Mace
Cousins combined and took the score to 210 before Cousins
was tragically run out for 58.
“The 17-year old, Mace Cousins is a very classy bat and
displayed that class against a tight attack from Romsey
bowlers,” said Lidgett.
Suriaratchie kept the runs ticking over and made a well
put together 89.
“Kasun showcased his class and showed why he has
played at the high level he has. He is an incredibly smart
batsman and is a valuable asset to the Bulls,” said a clearly
happy Lidgett.
The Bulls batted on and Lidgett was very satisfied that
the Bulls managed to amass a hefty 150 runs off the last 20
overs. Bacchus Marsh 8/309 cc off 79 overs. Lidgett wants
his bowlers to execute their plan and build pressure on the
The Centre was represented by 36 teams at the Western
Metro Region Relay Championships held at John Landy Field,
Geelong on Saturday.
The BMLAC Relay Squad was made up of 61 athletes. After
weeks of training, all athletes were well prepared, thanks
to the commitment and dedication of volunteer coaches;
Chantelle Estlick, Tony Attard, Victor Banigo, Natalie Grero,
Chris Mai, Kate Conroy, Bethan White, Sam Stewart, Jorge
Ide, Karen Lloyd and Sam Goodman.
Many athletes competed in their first relay competition, with
a number also returning year after year for this annual event.
The 4 x 200m events this year were contested over timed
finals. The Under 13 Mixed team claimed our first medal for
the day winning a Bronze medallion. The Under 10 Mixed
A team finished 1st in their heat and 2nd overall, securing a
Silver medal.
In the 4 x 100m events the Under 9 Boys ran a superb race,
finishing strongly to take Bronze while the Under 9 Mixed
team were consistent across all 4 legs to claim the Silver
medal. The Under 10 Mixed team were simply superb in their
final, after finishing 2nd in their heat, each runner improved
in the final winning Gold and automatically qualifying for
State. The Under 14 Mixed team ran a well-executed race,
sneaking home for a Bronze medal. The Mixed Under 15 team
produced a dominant Gold winning performance and an
automatic spot at next month’s State Championships.
All teams will now anxiously await progressions for the State
Championships.
Centre competition will return to Saturday morning this
week at Masons Lane Reserve commencing at 8.30am.

Ballan Cricket Club

Romsey batsmen next week. An excellent and exciting
game in the making.
Johnstone Shield v East Sunbury: The Bulls (batting) got
off to a reasonable start with openers, Drew Closter (29)
and Brodie Gellie (27) getting things going. Tom Dickinson
batted well for 37 but Ben Robertson took the honours with
a well compiled 57 not out. Bacchus Marsh reasonably
happy at 10/235, but will have to bowl well to defend that
total.
Division 1 v Riddells Creek: The Bulls won the toss and
batted. Will Lalor batted very well for his 33 as did our
Gordon import, Taeje Baker, who put on a well hit 52. Sam
Rousch topped the charts with 57 and the Bulls ended up
234 off 73 overs.
Division 2 v East Sunbury: East won the toss and batted
which didn’t seem such a wise decision when they were
bowled out for 110. However, in response, the Bulls are in a
bit of strife at 3/8 off six overs. With Darran Fowlie and Ben
Velden still to bat, the game should tilt in the Bulls favour
but it will be an interesting second day. Josh Lloyd was the
pick of the Bulls’ bowlers with 5/25.
Division 3 v Aintree: The Bulls won toss and sent Aintree
into bat, managing 7/295cc off 65 overs. The wickets were
shared amongst the Bulls’ bowlers.
Club Grade South v Eynesbury: The Bulls amassed 9/210
with young gun, Armi Wakefield making a mature 32 and
club veteran, Peter Dickson, chiming in with an unbeaten
50.
An interesting second day awaits all Grades.
Ballan 1st X1: Ballan 0/5 v Wendouree
8/283 dec. Batting - L Snaith 3 no, J
McGregor 2 no. Bowling - B Loughnane
21-4-5/77, M Snaith 14-3-1/32, D

Ballan lost the toss and bowled
first with Wendouree getting off to
a good start with a lot of luck and a
fast outfield, despite good bowling
Wendouree’s opening partnership was
148 but to Ballan’s credit the bowlers
and fieldsman hung in there to get eight
wickets in the next 135 runs. Ballan’s
best bowler was Ben Loughnane
picking up 5 wickets in the innings.
Wendouree declared forcing Ballan to
bat for 5 overs before the end of the day.
Ballan’s opening batsmen did their job
and remain not out and will continue
their batting next week.
