Isaac roads flood damage bill is rising, as Isaac Regional Council moves forward with reconstruction works.

CEO Rod Ferguson said significant damage was caused by the February flood event.

“Road crews are currently working on $1.5 million in emergency works, with four major projects completed or nearing completion,” he said.

“Crews have completed road reinstatement and batter protection on Golden Mile Road’s Blackburn Creek culvert, after the road leading into the culvert was washed away.

“Stabilisation and asphalt replacement has been completed on Peak Downs Mine Access Road.

“The road surface was warped after excess water seeped under the asphalt.

“Saraji Road’s Barrett Creek and Downs Creek Overflow culverts were also damaged, with reconstruction works expected to be completed in May.”

Mr Ferguson said broader scoping of the entire Isaac region’s flood damage is nearing completion.

“Further scoping should be finished in the next six weeks and will then be submitted to the Queensland Reconstruction Authority (QRA) for assessment,” he said.

“Once completed, the works will be claimed under the Natural Disaster Relief and Recovery Arrangements (NDRRA).

“It is expected the damage bill will reach into the multi millions.”

The recent damage to roads has joined a long list of projects under Council’s NDRRA Flood Restoration Program.

The program was implemented as a result of several severe weather events from 2010-2014, which caused widespread damage to the region’s roads and drainage infrastructure.

It is the largest flood restoration program in the region’s history and is funded under NDRRA.

Council grants 19 not-for-profits rates reliefMore than 19 not-for-profit sporting organisations across the Isaac region were granted a total of $55,523.54 in rates relief at a recent Statutory Council meeting.

Isaac Regional Council Mayor Anne Baker said Council understands the financial pressures not-for-profit organisations are under in the current economic climate.

“Some organisations had approached Council seeking consideration for rates concessions charged under lease arrangements.

“Following a review of properties Council leases to not-for-profit organisations, the decision was made to apply consistent remissions across the region.”

“Council is granting 19 not-for-profit organisations a full remission to their general rates and a 50% remission of their water and sewerage charges for the 2015/16 financial year.”

Mayor Baker said not-for-profit organisations were vital to community wellbeing, fulfilling social, health and cultural community needs.

“We hope these concessions provide them with an opportunity to secure or improve their organisation and activities.”

Another 50 not-for-profit organisations currently already receive concessions on their rates through Isaac Regional Council.

Council will be reconsidering leasing arrangements and not-for-profit concessions for the 2016/17 financial year.

The decision was made at the February 23 Isaac Regional Council Statutory Meeting.

Clermont Show - The Isaac Region’s ShowLive animal scanning for market specifications

Plans for the Clermont Show Cattlemen’s Challenge Field Day at Laurel Hills Feedlot, Clermont are well underway.

All beef producers wanting to learn more about carcass traits and ultrasound scanning of cattle are encouraged to attend the Field Day on Friday May 13 from 9am.

Focusing on how to maximize profitability by better understanding carcass traits and live animal data, the day is certain to be of interest to all in the beef business who are planning to purchase bulls and market cattle this year.

Competition steers have been at “Laurel Hills” on a grain ration since early February. Inspection of the challenge cattle and assessment of their weight performances over the last three months will begin the days’ program.

Vendors will select three steers to go to the Show for judging, one steer to be entered into a carcass competition and into the Taste Test Competition at the Show on Tuesday May 24, starting at approximately 12.30pm near the Agent’s Kiosk.

After the steer selection process, live animal ultrasound scanning for fat depth, intramuscular fat and eye muscle area will be demonstrated on the steers selected for the carcass competition.

The demonstrator will discuss estimated breeding values (EBV’s) and their use for genetic improvement, the heritability of carcass traits and how to understand animal data provided at sales.

A tour of the feedlot by the Hall family has been arranged. Although this is targeted towards the school groups who are attending the day, all field day participants are welcome to join in.

The field day is being organized by the Clermont Show Beef Cattle Committee and hosted by the Hall family, with bbq lunch and refreshments provided through the generous support of Riverina Stockfeeds. Anyone interested in beef production is welcome to attend.

For more information please contact David Conachan 4983 5389 or Lauren Williams 0467 804 287.

FuzzbookContributed by The Sarge

Sorry people that I have been a bit remiss on putting in my article for the last couple of weeks. There has been a fair bit happening and I would like to bring everyone up to speed.

I left you all with the first day of the search for the missing 15 year old girl we had in town. I know that was the end of March but it was great to see success in locating her on the third day of the official land search. I would like to personally thank all the SES and other volunteers that came and helped out the town of Clermont especially GB Helicopters. Some of you would be surprised to know that SES came from all over the region and remember they do not get paid for it. The young girl on being located has been relocated to another town. Some less than constructive comments have circulated around town about the whole issue and frankly it has been resolved for the time being and let’s just move on as a town.

The sad news of one of our local girls, Barb Bridgeman passing on has hit quite hard. The Bridgeman family is quite large and spans the whole region. The news that came was sad for myself personally. Even her twin girls will admit I spent far too much time over the years with the whole family dealing with those pesky girls. Now unfortunately they have been left without a mother and her beautiful grandchildren without their Granny. I wish all the family the best and hope everyone remains strong.

Barb was a great helper to many of the older people in town that just had no one to help them out. I don’t know how many times she would be weeding gardens, running people around or just delivering groceries. She will be sorely missed by many.

The Clermont Rodeo went off without a hitch. The committee this year, I believe steered by Marksy, put together a good show for the whole family.

The bar area was made big enough so people weren’t tripping over each other or no ones lady got inadvertently touched by another fella. You know that’s how the blues start.

Good crowd afterwards in the pubs and no problems except some under age kids trying their luck. Luckily fake ID is easy enough to spot, especially if it doesn’t even look like you!

Not much happening on the crime front. We are having property stolen from vehicles such as spotties and tools out of the backs of utilities. If you want to keep your stuff, then secure it. Spotlights can be put on with special nuts and bolts to stop theft. Same goes for eskies and portable fridges. Engel fridges are worth over a thousand dollars for a decent one, so secure it!

On the school front helmet wearing is getting better but we need to see everyone with their helmets on. An acquired brain injury is no laughing matter and they happen quite easily if a child falls off of a bike with no helmet on. It is cheap health insurance for your child.

Also motorbikes. I do not know what possesses parents to buy their children motorbikes in town. It is particularly cruel to have them in the shed and the kids get tempted to ride them especially when mum and dad are not home. Instances have recently been reported. Just a warning. These bikes will be seized if the riders are caught and the parents as well as the child will be prosecuted. This is because the parent is allowing the child to ride unlicensed. So join the motorcross and do the right thing or find a paddock to ride in with friends, not the streets of town.

Anyway that’s about it for now. Hope to see everyone on Anzac Day at the parade.
