Val and Faith are back in the studio for 2024 and kick things off with a catch up on some of the local news over the summer break.We start by sharing our bike moments and for both of us they seem to resolve around red traffic lights and those magic moments when they turn green! Over the weekend a solidarity ride for the Gaza Sunbirds was organised by An Other Collective in Melbourne and Sydney as part of a world wide show of support. You can find out more about the Gaza Sunbirds at their website and donate to support their actions in Gaza providing aid.Darebin Council is holding a special meeting on Monday to consider a recision motion on some safety improvements for Soth Crescent and Newcastle Streets in Darebin. Take a look at the Streets Alive Darebin page for all the background on this and updated information on the original motion and the recision motion. Southside, in Glen Eira, the LXRP are planning to remove 100+ mature trees to build a protected bike lane. On a wide street with plenty os space for pedestrians, parking, moving vehicles, and protected bike lanes it seems incredible that these trees can't be saved. Especially when they are so important to those using active transport modes. You can read more on Glen Eira BUG's Facebook page. And who. could have missed it, but just in case you did, the Walmer Street bridge has re-opened! It has been a sage and much of that saga well documented by Yarra BUG Radio but the bridge is finally done! For now. In bad news, the Footscray Road shared path is now indefinietly closed due to the state government's inability to safely manage truck traffic. What do they do in the rest of the world we wonder? It's a mystery. And from the United States, the War on Cars dive into the horrendous increase in pedestrian fatalities and the uptake of SUVs. Two dates to put in your diary for 2024 have already been anounced: Feburary 25th will see a welcome summer edition of the World Naked Bike Ride in Melbourne and Sunday June 30th is set for the next Melburn Roobaix.

"We need to tell our story to our ratepayers."The Mayor of Glen Eira, Cr Jim Magee, is passionate about the state of the local government sector and the challenges it faces.Cr Magee has had discussions with mayors from across Victoria and interstate, and they all face similar problems in their municipalities.He believes that councils need more support from state and federal governments, as they are facing increasing costs and limited resources.Cr Magee argues that councils are often blamed for issues that are beyond their control, such as planning decisions and cost shifting from higher levels of government.He believes that councils need to communicate their challenges and the impact of government decisions to ratepayers, so they understand the need for rate increases and additional funding.Cr Magee is part of the current Mayoral Advisory Panel and hopes to address the issue of financial sustainability in local government. He is committed to his role as mayor and plans to continue serving as long as his residents believe he has something to offer.

With a good percentage of people back in the office, and others exploring their options to work remotely, whether that's at home, a tropical island in Fiji, up in the snowfields or a break away on the coast, there is a larger need to keep an eye on your home when you're not at home. Today, we're going to look at security options, and what are the latest things people are looking at in security when buying a home. Michael Hain is a gold member of the Australian Security Industry Association Limited; executive board member of the Victorian Security Institute, has served 2 years as Neighbourhood Watch Chairman for the City of Glen Eira and a member of the Glen Eira Council Community Safety Committee, and is the Founder and CEO of Security Heroes, the most accredited expert we could find to talk to us about security for our home. 1. Explain to us the levels of security available that buyers are looking for when buying property? a. Mobile phone app. b. Pet-Immune alarm detectors c. Stay-at-home protection d. Video intercom e. Affordable high-definition infra-red cameras 2. There were days when people would think that CCTV cameras on a house were there because the occupants were doing shifty stuff, like drugs. What is the consensus about suburbs where they see CCTV cameras on every second home nowadays? 3. We see many homes with keyless entry locks on their front door or to open their front gates, what are some of the pros and cons that buyers would need to think about? 4. When buying a home, what are some of the tell-tale signs that there maybe criminal activity in the street or area? 5. When people first get CCTV cameras, they seem to be in awe of being able to watch everything going around their homes? Does it get to a stage where they only look when they need to? 6. How well do the 'ring' style doorbells/CCTV systems work? 7. Say you have organised an appointment to meet a couple who want to get a security/surveillance system in their home, what should they look for in 'you' to know that you are trusted? 8. When a new buyer settles into their home, what security concerns should they have as they are moving into that home? 9. What happens if there is an existing alarm or CCTV system in the home, how can we make it that only we know who has access to that system? 10. If there is no alarm or CCTV, and we feel we need it, how can we get one installed? 11. Should investors put an alarm or CCTV on their properties? Would a tenant be concerned if the landlord has access to the CCTV footage? 12. How popular is back to base monitoring now that we CCTV app-connected technology? 13. Do you get a discount on your insurance premium if you have a back to base system rather than an app-connected system? 14. How did you come up with the name 'Security Heroes'?

Nearly five million residents of greater Melbourne and the Mitchell Shire are set to enter a very different world from midnight Wednesday, with a new six-week lockdown coming into effect.On Tuesday Premier Daniel Andrews reinstated stay at home restrictions across metropolitan Melbourne and Mitchell Shire, to the north of the city, to take effect from 11.59pm on July 8.He announced 191 new cases of Covid-19 on Tuesday including 154 under investigation.None of the cases were detected in returned travellers in hotel quarantine in a worrying development showing the virus is established in the community.There are 772 active coronavirus cases in Victoria and 35 people are in hospital. Nine of those patients are in intensive care.THE AREAS AFFECTEDThe restricted areas are Mitchell Shire and 31 local government areas across the greater city: Banyule, Bayside, Boroondara, Brimbank, Cardinia, Casey, Darebin, Frankston, Glen Eira, Greater Dandenong, Hobsons Bay, Hume, Kingston, Knox, Manningham, Maribyrnong, Maroondah, Melbourne, Melton, Mitchell Shire, Monash, Moonee Valley, Moreland, Mornington Peninsula, Nillumbik, Port Phillip, Stonnington, Whitehorse, Whittlesea, Wyndham, Yarra and the Yarra Ranges."2020 has not been the year any of us wanted," Andrews said when announcing the news."Cancelled events. Plans put on pause. Uncertainty about what the future holds."And I guess that's why so many people want to pretend this is over."He stressed the stay at home direction applies to principal places of residence."That means no escaping to holiday homes," Andrews said.According to a summary of the restrictions, second places of residence outside restricted areas cannot be visited except for limited exceptions such as an emergency or maintenance, shared custody, or to stay with an intimate partner who does not live with you.The state's chief health officer Professor Brett Sutton said Victorians have got "six very difficult weeks ahead".The new directions are to continue until 11.59pm on August 19.No one in the impacted areas is allowed to have private gatherings with visitors, and public gatherings are limited to "two people or household members only"."For people who live in regional Victoria, where case numbers remain low, current restrictions will remain the same for now," Andrews said.Regional Victorians cannot enter restricted areas except for "necessary purposes" being necessary goods or services, work and education if necessary, medical care or compassionate reasons.

Val and Faith are joined in the studio by Herschel Landes. We all share our bike moments before taking a brief look at some news, specifically a Dutch Cycling Embassy report that finds weather is not one of the factors influencing peoples' choice to use a bike for transport trips. Discussion turns to the Safe Cycling Corridor pilot in the City of Glen Eira, an attempt to link existing cycling infrastructure with a route across suburbs. Of the potential routes Inkerman Road lends itself well to this sort of infrastructure and would enable 8-80 cycling in an area which has a high level of car dependency. Herschel discusses the benefits of the route for the local community in terms of enhanced transport mode choices, improved access to local services and ammenities and community building as well as the fears voiced by those against the project. A first for the City of Glen Eira, this is a project that will be followed with interest. As an ongoing project be sure to send the City of Glen Eira your thoughts if this project has the potential to affect you.
