Wandi Progress Association News
PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
Well, what a terrific turnout for Neighbour Day on Sunday 29th March. We had close to 200 people turn up
and enjoy the afternoon. There was plenty of roast beef rolls, icecreams, lollies, Easter eggs and cakes to
go around to all the adults and children. We heard some great music from “The Chuckabillies”, (if you
would like to book them for an event, please contact us and we will put you in touch with them.), lots of kids
on the bouncy castle, many got their faces painted and played the various ball games. Satterleys provided
some cute coloured pencils for the youngsters to take home too.
I spoke to many residents from Wandi, Anketell, Honeywood Estate and Mandogalup. Some folk
mentioned they hadn’t known about the resources we had at the community centre and some others were
able to catch up with friends and neighbours they hadn’t seen for a while.
My sincere thanks go to the Wandi Progress Association committee, their partners, offspring and friends
who helped both on the day and behind the scenes. Everyone involved pitched in and worked as a team
and made it a truly successful afternoon. I would also like to thank Mayor Carol Adams and her staff for the
funding and assistance given to organise the event.

MAYOR’S MESSAGE
With one public holiday after another, this year seems to be flying by extremely quickly and I’m sure you will
notice that with time come great changes in and around the Wandi area.
The Wandi Community Centre is well under construction and is on track to be completed as per the initial
timeframe of around late September this year with occupancy expected soon after. This is an exciting time
for community groups in the area as the state-of-the-art facility will be a welcome addition to the existing
facilities.
Other big projects taking place in the City of Kwinana include the re-opening of our hydro pool at the
Kwinana Recquatic Centre and the re-commencement of Swim School classes after several months of
refurbishment work. The 25 metre pool is still undergoing some work, following an unanticipated delay, but
it is taking shape and we’re excited to be bringing this much improved facility to the community in the near
future.
The upgrade of Gilmore Avenue is also a major project that will help with traffic flow through the City, while
in Wandi, Lyon Road will be upgraded as a result of urban developments. The upgrade will extend from
Rowley Road to Kenby Chase with the installation of kerbing, drainage, footpaths and resurfacing. Works
are expected to commence in the next couple of months.
Events
The City recently secured some funding for the ‘Positive Vibes’ project, which coincided with National Youth
Week. It involved building awareness of local mental health services and helped to provide stress
management and coping mechanisms to young people in Kwinana. This project and series of events were
well attended across the week with great community participation.
The ‘Act-Belong-Commit Our Heritage Festival’ takes place on Sunday, 10 May at Sloans Reserve in Leda.
The City of Kwinana invites you all to come along and enjoy this relaxing day out with family and friends to
learn about the rich history of your City. More details can be found online at livekwinana.com.au.
Finally, running alongside the heritage celebrations is the ANZAC Centenary Exhibition at the Darius Wells
Library and Resource Centre. ‘Answering the Call’ is dedicated to showcasing stories and recollections of
2
WWI from local people. It’s running at the Darius Wells Library and Resource Centre until 24 May and is a
great tribute to the men and women who were directly affected by the conflicts. Lest we forget.
Thank you once more for the opportunity to update the Wandi community on a few of the events occurring
within the City of Kwinana.
Carol Adams
Mayor, City of Kwinana
REPORT ON THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 18/02/2015
Whilst the number of residents calling Wandi home is increasing, it was disappointing that attendance at
the AGM was only 25. Even more disappointing is there are no new faces on the committee (see the front
page for the names/positions of 2015 committee members). Please consider volunteering to become
involved in your community organisation. We do really need a Treasurer – the past Treasurer is very
happy to assist in handing over the reins to a new person and providing ongoing support as necessary.
Mayor Carol Adams’ address at the WPA AGM
The committee was again delighted that Mayor Carol Adams and Councillor Wendy Cooper were able to
attend our annual general meeting. We had provided them with a list of questions prior to the meeting and
they also took questions from the floor.
The Mayor initially gave a brief review of the State government’s project to reform local Councils. The
amalgamation with City of Cockburn was rejected at the recent ballot by Kwinana residents. Local
government elections will take place in October this year. Carol indicated her plan to stand for the position
of Mayor, which is a two year term of office, but said 2017 will be her ‘exit year’ - after twenty years of
service to the Kwinana community.
Council and Rotary are supporting the regional Children’s Adventure Playground project on a large part of
Calista Oval. Construction will commence later in the year and be completed in 2016.
Concern was expressed at the number of deliberately lit fires in the area and the volunteer brigades were
thanked for their efforts. Carol provided confirmation that fire permits will not be required during the period
1 June to 30 September.
Council is currently evaluating the costs of a weekly recycling bin collection. Tip passes will not be
available. Green waste is collected four times a year and bulk/junk waste twice a year. If residents notice
an area in Wandi which attracts regular dumping of waste, please contact Council. It may be possible to
install covert CCTV which can lead to prosecution of offenders. The City has used this method
successfully in the past but, like everything, they do need community assistance.
Hooning should be reported to the police. Despite being within the City of Kwinana local government
boundary, Wandi falls in the Mundijong policing district.
Report graffiti to Council. Offensive words are generally removed within 24 hours of the report.
The new intersection on Lyon Road at the northern end of Honeywood Estate is expected to be completed
in mid-May this year. (Ed. See updated information in the Mayor’s Message)
Neighbour Day – 29 March 2015 – grants are available to community groups for large neighbourhood gettogethers. Smaller grants for street parties will also be available. This scheduled date has also provided
the City with a great opportunity to thank the community for the strong response against the amalgamation
with Cockburn. (Ed. See President’s report)
3
Planning is underway to extend the Council chambers and offices into the Margaret Feilman Centre which
is behind the current Council building. Now the result of the amalgamation proposal is known, signage
showing ‘Town’ of Kwinana will need to be changed to reflect our City status.
The following issues were raised by local residents:
Concern that dust particles on his roof could be from the Kwinana Industrial Area. As we are reliant on
water collected from our roofs, he wondered how this could be checked. Carol advised that the additional
dust is most likely to be from the earthworks connected with the new housing estate. Wendy Cooper
advised that previous testing had indicated that wind-borne dust from KIA was blown more northerly
towards the Melville area rather than easterly. It was suggested that the question could be raised at the
Kwinana Industries Council (next Community & Industries Forum meeting 3 March 5.30pm, Darius Wells
Library).
Concern that Magenup Road is hazardous as it is narrow and winding and a request that a single
continuous central white line be painted on the road to improve safety. However, he had been advised that
the road was considered too narrow for this to be done. He remains concerned that the road is dangerous.
Carol undertook to put in a Council request to look at the road to see if the white line could be painted as
suggested. Council will request Main Roads WA investigate and consider implementing changes to the line
marking as required.
Concern about sand build up on Lyon Road. Contractor has swept the road and will be sweeping more
frequently in the future.
Possibility of a charging station being installed in Kwinana for electric cars. UWA, who ran the electric
vehicle trial, has provided the following advice with regard to electric car charging stations. A fast charging
station costs about $30,000. Slow charging ones cost $7,000 but UWA do not recommend them as they
take 4-5 hours to charge, and therefore are not that useful to visitors. At this time we do not have the
budget to install one, and we would need to do research on the best location to get the most benefit/usage
of such a facility. It is certainly a consideration for the future. In the meantime residents may be interested
to know we are planning on having an electric car seminar in May and if they would like to be on the
Environment email list we can send them more details closer to the date. (Ed. Refer to What’s on in
Kwinana)
MANDOGALUP VOLUNTEER BUSHFIRE BRIGADE
Our primary area of responsibility is east of the Freeway between Thomas and Rowley Roads (The
Spectacles is not included in our area) but we are routinely called to incidents in surrounding areas within
the City of Kwinana, and to major incidents which can be well outside. In the period December through
March, we responded to 22 callouts in our primary area involving 303 man-hours.
Elsewhere within the boundaries of the City of Kwinana, we had 37 callouts with 1236 hours. The two
major fires within The Spectacles during February accounted for around 650 of those hours. Outside the
City of Kwinana (e.g. Baldivis, Cockburn, Bullsbrook and Bindoon) we had 27 call-outs with 796 man-hours
expended.
So for the fire season (December 2014 – March 2015) we had a total of 86 call-outs and 2335 fire-related
man-hours. It has been, by a long way, our busiest season for many years.
Additionally, a further 580 man-hours went on activities such as maintenance, community involvement,
meetings, training and so on.

CLEAN UP DAY IN WANDI –2015
On Sunday 1st March we had about 20 people helping out to clean our road verges. We covered quite a
few of the main arteries of Wandi and our volunteers picked up many alcoholic beverage bottles/cans, lots
of fast food wrappers and many other items including a muffler and a front fender from a car. It is always
very pleasing to see our community doing their bit to help keep Wandi beautiful. I wish to thank our
volunteers for a great job done and look forward to getting many more people to help next year.

Just a reminder about City of Kwinana verge collection dates
 Next greenwaste collection 15 June 2015.
AROUND THE WANDI COMMUNITY CENTRE
In our last Warbler we announced the funding approval for our new community building that will house a
variety of clubs and give greater flexibility to the placement of users for the years to come. Construction of
the building was started with site clearing on 19th January this year, the building is now at the walls up and
roof on stage. Photos of the progress can be viewed on our website, check the Home page and select the
New Building Progress tab http://www.wandiprogress.com.au/.
Part of the building construction will be a new waste water treatment plant manufactured by BioMAX. By
the time you receive this Warbler, it should be installed, just awaiting commissioning once the building is
completed. BioMAX is designed to treat all waste water, potable water being the final result. Its location is
behind the Hall with the leach drains for the potable water running along the base of the viewing mound of
the oval.
We need to thank the City of Kwinana and Lottery West for funding this project that makes Wandi a true
centre for community activities in the surrounding area.
In readiness for the building opening we are in the process of planning for club relocation within the centre,
so lots of work to do yet. If you belong to a club and think it needs a new home or would like to start a club
please contact us, there’s a good chance we can help.
5
Along with the new building works we’ve been hosting many events like Caravan Clubs and GEKO LARP
for overnight stays. See the back pages of the Warbler for the club listings and their meeting times.

WANDI LANDCARE GROUP
Wandi Landcare group was fortunate again this year and received funding from the Swan River Trust,
Alcoa of Australia and Perth NRM (SALP) grants program for 2015 to undertake its rehabilitation work at
Lake Magenup. The funding application was done in partnership with the City of Kwinana, so thank you
Angela for all your assistance and hard work. An awards ceremony was held on 24 February when a
breakfast was enjoyed by grant recipients at Kings Park and the Minister for Environment; Heritage, the
Hon. Albert Jacob MLA made official presentations. Thanks to Les and Marilyn Whiddett for attending and
representing Wandi Landcare Group. Les said he enjoyed it and it was a lovely morning and breakfast.
Please get your pens out and mark your diaries and calendars for the tree planting dates for 2015 at Lake
Magenup deHaer Rd:

Sunday 28th June for the first planting

Sunday 26th July as part of Planet Ark National Tree Day
With the funding we have received there are plenty of plants so we will be having two planting days this
year, as well as having NAB help out on another day. It’s great that we will be having one of those on
Planet Ark National Tree Day. Keep your eyes peeled on the FaceBook and website for more details.
The City of Kwinana is also looking at establishing a “City of Kwinana Friends of “ group for the bushland
around the Kwinana area. So if you are keen to be involved, please let me know 0438676160 or email
[email protected] It will provide a great networking opportunity and you can get out and
about and explore more of the natural areas around Kwinana.
If you have any suggestions on activities for Landcare or would like to be more involved, please contact
me! We are looking at doing some work in and around the Honeywood area so would be great to hear from
people who are interested.

UPDATE FROM SATTERLEY PROPERTY GROUP
The northern stages of Honeywood (Stages 7-9) are now nearing completion, and the upgrade of road
works on Lyon Road, near Rowley Road are expected to commence mid-May. The revised engineering
design for the upgrade of Lyon Road and the northern intersection with Honeywood Avenue has been
submitted to the City of Kwinana for approval and to the contractor for pricing. It is expected that the
upgrade will take approximately three months and be ready for Honeywood residents to use by mid-August.
The Honeywood Rise development is also progressing well with Stage 1 completed and titled and Stage 2
is scheduled for completion in May. Further south, the Honeywood Rise development extends to Kenby
Chase, with the intermediate area comprising of Stages 3, 4 and 5. The earthworks for these stages have
been substantially completed.

POWER SURGE PROTECTION – DO I REALLY NEED IT?
Having worked in the power industry for the last 40 years I am often asked if it is worth using power surge
protectors for valuable equipment. My answer is usually YES, and especially here in a semi-rural area
where the power system is more vulnerable.
Most electronic equipment comes with some form of power supply protection built in, but often that is basic
in nature and unless you dig down into the detailed specifications on each piece of equipment you cannot
rely on it. Also, one good reason to select an external protective device is that successive “hits” on the
protector gradually degrade it to the point where it will fail, and an external device is cheaper to replace
than the equipment. Usually I recommend a single, quality multi-outlet device for home office or home
theatre applications. So how do you determine “quality”?
The fundamental purpose of this device is to filter out voltage “spikes” on the power supply, so the primary
indicator of quality is the Joule rating which is the ability of the device to absorb the spike energy, so the
higher the better but most will be rated above 1000 Joules. The higher quality devices will also include a
value of the equipment which they are protecting, as an example the Belkin Essentials range costs around
$60, and will warranty up to $75,000 on the value of downstream equipment.
Surge protectors often include additional functionality such as telephone line or internet cable “filtering”,
USB power supplies, etc. In my opinion the telephone line filter combined with the power protection is
useful where your protected devices have both power and phone connection from the outside world, but the
other functions are more of a convenience than protection.
As with most things these days it is worth the effort to research reviews on these kinds of items. I did a
quick search in writing this piece, and was surprised to find a shortage of recent reviews from the likes of
Choice magazine, but there are more “techy” sites like CNET and Wirecutter with information and advice.

COMMENTS BY A DISGRUNTLED LOCAL RESIDENT
A few years ago, through the Wandi landcare group, I was given a heap of native seedlings. Unlike others I
planted mine around my property (on the nature strip) - I always thought it was called a nature strip
because it was “natural vegetation between one’s property and the road.
Unfortunately in the last six months 4+ of the small to medium sized native shrubs I had planted have
been mowed over by an over enthusiastic lawnmower man. One tree even had a protection mesh over it.
Recently a large 1.5 metre high native bush that I had planted more than 10 years ago has been cut down.
I keep asking myself…..WHY. Why would he go to so much trouble? Surely it would be easier to miss the
Fiat Bambino-sized plants and focus on the weeds.
Is it because I mow my verge before fire season? Is it vengeance against the one that steals his craft? Is
that his resolve? Is he worried that my few plants are a fire risk? Nah, it can’t be. The plants did sit
between the road, a good fire break and are surrounded by enough fodder to starve a sheep. A nature
strip around a 5 acre property can’t be watered without prosecution. Perhaps the lack of green lawn
offends the man and a desert wasteland is my penance.
Anyway no point crying over something literally dead and buried. Some time in the near future I visualise
myself sitting on my John Deere RX75 when a white ute, plates lettered in blue, and a smiling band of men
hand over a few good sized native plants and a tray of seedling for one’s trouble, all to start the process
again!
