Mayor Anne Baker is asking the community to help the Queensland Government end domestic and family violence in Isaac communities.
“Residents are encouraged to provide their views about the Queensland Government’s draft Domestic and Family Violence Prevention Strategy online.
“This Strategy is described as a vehicle to drive transformation across all sectors of the Queensland.
“It aims to encourage partnerships between the government, community, business and other areas to work towards a Queensland free from domestic and family violence.”
“Critically, it will place the safety of victims and children at the heart of all efforts to address and prevent domestic and family violence.”
“I encourage you to read the draft Domestic and Family Violence Prevention Strategy online and give your views and feedback.”
You can have your say through the online survey here, visit the website at www.qld.gov.au/enddomesticandfamilyviolence, or make a formal submission.
Community feedback closes Monday 16 November 2015.
Help end domestic and family violence
Isaac Regional Council puts regional issues on state agendaIsaac Regional Council put key regional community issues on the state agenda today at the Local Government Association of Queensland (LGAQ) Conference in Toowoomba.
Council delegates from across Queensland unanimously endorsed the LGAQ to lobby the State Government on five motions put forward by Isaac Regional Council.
Mayor Anne Baker said the motions covered key priorities from regional development and water security, to increased funding for essential infrastructure and genuine action on postcode discrimination.
“It’s vital there’s an action plan from the State Government prioritising jobs, business and industry diversification in regional local government areas.”
“There also needs to be increased funding for regional resource communities dealing with the after effects of the mining boom.”
Mayor Baker said there was overwhelming support for the motion for regional water security to provide for future population growth.
“Fundamental to our region’s future is affordable water to unlock economic growth in the resource and agricultural sectors.”
“On behalf of mining workers, families and regional resource communities across the state we called for action on the recently released recommendations from the Queensland Government’s fly-in, fly-out (FIFO) inquiry.”
Mayor Anne Baker, Cr Kelly Vea Vea, and Cr Jane Pickels also met with the Deputy Premier, Coordinator-General and the Minister for Main Roads, Road Safety and Ports and Minister for Energy and Water Supply Mark Bailey MP to discuss key priorities for the Isaac communities.

With the advent of rain the other night it is good to see some smiles and something for everyone to talk about other than how dry it is. Speculation is currently rife as to when the rain will dry out again, so stay tuned for when people start talking about how dry it is once more. Of course I hope some of our country readers have experienced good falls of rain and hopefully many more.
It is now a good time to review any disaster plans you may have for your household especially fire, flood or storms. Debris went everywhere the other night, so if everyone can make sure that everything is tied down it would be super. Also look at fuel load on the ground and clean up around buildings and homes so that if fires start they won’t wreck as much havoc.
Well done to Harley at the post office for picking up my grammatical error in the last column. I have added one to this column to see if everyone is reading closely, it is there somewhere. Some astute readers may even get a red pen out!
Onto crime concerns, nothing much happening around the traps. I would caution all farmers, road workers and earth movers to lock up that diesel or lose it. Around the district diesel tankers are continuing to be targets for thieves wanting free fuel. In some instances even drums laying around sheds are getting checked. If you suspect you have had fuel stolen, report it and be careful not to disturb any tracks in the dirt around tanks as we are building up a database of tyre tracks found.
Also a lot of good cheap security cameras on the market now can capture footage around your valuable equipment. Some of the footage can go straight to mobile phones or similar. If you are thinking about cameras get researching. You may find insurance companies reconsider your premium if you have them installed.
Traffic has seemed to slowed up a bit on the highway with not as many tickets issued this week. One traffic crash involving a road train, car and caravan which unbelievably resulted in no injuries but with only collateral damage to the car. The crash happened as a lot do between caravans and trucks, as the truck overtakes the caravan the bow wave of air in front of the truck forces the caravan to the left more than normal. As the caravan then stabilises and recoils back to the right the caravan strikes the truck which then causes the car to jack knife of sorts. In this situation the truck was empty and able to stop a lot quicker than a laden vehicle. Other than that crashes have been few and far between lately.
Still spotting a number of kids riding without helmets. If you are a parent and you have a child then it is your responsibility to make sure they ride with a helmet. This should not be because it is law but because the helmet will save the child from serious brain injury if correctly fitted when they crash.
There has also been cattle getting out on the roads from recent fires taking out fences. If you see burnt country then chances are there may be some injured or roaming livestock in the area so slow down and be aware.
The Bushpigs Presentation Night and Clermont State School Quiz night seemed to go without a hitch. I am not certain who turned out to be the best team for the quiz but you would hope it was the teachers!
Anyway that is about it for now.
See if you can work this one out, a deaf person walks into a store and motions to the shopkeeper as if he was milking a cow, the shopkeeper recognises milk and points to the back of the store. Next a blind man walks into the store wanting eggs. How would he make the shopkeeper aware of that?
Answer next week.
