Arthur Thomas Gietzelt AO (28 December 1920 – 5 January 2014) and acknowledged his achievements, particularly as Shire President and Sutherland Shire Councillor. It was resolved that Council give consideration to the naming of a Sutherland Shire facility in honour of this former long serving councillor and Shire President. It is proposed that the new Woolooware Bay Stage 6 shared pathway shelter be named “Gietzelt Lookout” in honour of the late Arthur Gietzelt’s local community service and in recognition of his efforts to prevent the building of a second airport at the Towra Point and also preserving the habitat of internationally protected migratory seabirds. REPORT RECOMMENDATION THAT: 1. The large shelter in Woolooware Bay Stage 6 shared pathway be nominated the “Arthur Gietzelt Memorial Lookout” in honour of Arthur Gietzelt’s many achievements as Shire President and Sutherland Shire Councillor, and particularly his efforts in preserving Towra Point for future generations. 2. The proposal to name the shelter within the Woolooware Bay Stage 6 Shared Pathway the “Gietzelt Lookout” be endorsed in-principle and actioned for facility naming in accordance with the Naming of Public Open Space & Facilities Policy. Page 3 Shire Infrastructure Committee 6 August 2018 18 PURPOSE - To seek Council’s consideration of the proposal to name the Woolooware Bay Stage 6 shelter the “Arthur Gietzelt Memorial Lookout”. This shelter was recently completed as part of the elevated boardwalk over the mangroves as part of Woolooware Bay Stage 6 shared pathway project and is INF036 located in Woolooware Bay. Photos of the shelter and elevated pathway are included as Appendix B. BACKGROUND By Mayoral Minute No. 19/13-14 on 10 February 2014, Council recorded the passing of the Hon. Arthur Thomas Gietzelt AO (28 December 1920 – 5 January 2014) and acknowledged his achievements, particularly as Shire President and Sutherland Shire Councillor. Arthur Gietzelt's achievements were specified in the Mayoral Minute: As it is today, the 1960s were an incredibly challenging time for the Shire Presidents and councillors of the Sutherland Shire. It was a period of rapid population growth, and the inability to provide infrastructure to support the development that was occurring. Many people attribute Arthur Gietzelt’s leadership in laying the foundations for many of the things which are taken for granted today within Sutherland Shire. Shire President Gietzelt and councillors can claim much of the credit for the infrastructure that later Councils have been able to use and build upon. Not the least of these was the provision of many of the sporting fields we enjoy today, swimming pools, community halls and libraries. It was on Arthur Gietzelt’s initiative that Council first established a Town Planning Department, probably the first in New South Wales, appointed a full time Fire Control Officer and introduced the first code to regulate high density development in Cronulla. Other achievements included: - establishment of Elouera Surf Life Saving Club - bringing to fruition the E G Waterhouse National Camellia Gardens - commencement of Kareela Golf Course - building of the Gunnamatta Park amphitheatre - provision of land for Caringbah YMCA - provision of land for Sutherland Police-Citizens Boys Club - commencement of the widening of the Kingsway - commencement of the Sutherland Entertainment Centre - approval of the first Miranda Fair - campaigning to have the Towra Point area acquired by the Federal Government as a nature reserve for migratory birds. Page 4 Shire Infrastructure Committee 6 August 2018 18 - A significant contribution to the Council was through the land project scheme, which, by the development and sale of Council owned land Council was able to finance many of the infrastructure and community facilities achieved during that time. INF036 The location of Woolooware Bay is considered a particularly suitable location to recognise the late Arthur Gietzelt’s achievements as he championed the campaign in the late 1960s against then State and Federal Governments which were planning to build a second airport at Towra Point, Kurnell. Mr Gietzelt successfully campaigned to have the Federal Government acquire Towra Point as a nature reserve for migratory birds. Appendix A is an aerial diagram showing the location of the facility within Woolooware Bay. DISCUSSION The request to name the Woolooware Bay Stage 6 lookout as the “Arthur Gietzelt Memorial Lookout” is proposed in recognition of Arthur Gietzelt’s many contributions to the Sutherland Shire, and to address the Council resolution in Mayoral Minute No. 19/13-14. There is a unique opportunity available with this facility naming proposal to directly link the facility to the legacy of the individual’s achievement. While naming a larger project or building may be appropriate for Mr Gietzelt’s service to the community it would not create the same situational appreciation which a person standing in the shelter gazing upon Towra Point to the north would recognise. Appendix B comprises a set of photographs showcasing the shelter on the Shared Pathway. The preservation of Towra Point for nature conservation, particularly migratory birds, following the successful community campaign championed by Mr Gietzelt to prevent the second airport in the 1960’s, not only provided a significant environmental benefit but just as importantly maintained a direction of development and community amenity in the eastern part of the Shire which would have been very different with an airport. It is reported the following international agreements and treaties, protecting Towra Point Nature Reserve: The Ramsar Convention on Wetlands (Ramsar, Iran 1971), which aims to halt the worldwide loss and degradation of wetlands by conserving them through the application of wise use principles and management systems. The Japan–Australia Migratory Bird Agreement (JAMBA, 1981), the agreement between the Government of Australia and the Government of Japan for the protection of migratory birds and birds in danger of extinction and their environment. Page 5 Shire Infrastructure Committee 6 August 2018 18 The Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (Bonn, 1983), which - aims to conserve terrestrial, marine and avian migratory species throughout their range. The China–Australia Migratory Bird Agreement (CAMBA, 1988), the agreement between the INF036 Government of Australia and the Government of the People's Republic of China for the protection of migratory birds and their environment. The Republic of Korea–Australia Migratory Bird Agreement (ROKAMBA, 2006), the agreement between the Government of the Republic of Korea and the Government of Australia for the protection of migratory birds. The Partnership for the Conservation of Migratory Waterbirds and the Sustainable Use of their Habitats in the East Asian–Australasian Flyway (2006). The development of this partnership has been led by the Government of Australia, the Government of Japan, and Wetlands International as an initiative of the World Summit on Sustainable Development. This partnership has succeeded the Asia–Pacific Migratory Waterbird Conservation Strategy 2001–2005 and is responsible for drafting a new Flyway Partnership Action Plan for 2006–2010. The main goal is to conserve species and their habitats through the establishment of networks of appropriately managed and internationally important sites for migratory waterbirds. Source: NSW Environment, Climate Change and Water – Towra Point Nature Reserve Ramsar Site, June 2010 The Woolooware Bay Stage 6 Shared Pathway is already a multi award winning project within months of its completion, and it is being well used and valued by the community. In relation to risks associated with this naming proposal it is likely that there will be some community opposition to naming a facility after a political figure. It is suggested that the best means to minimise this is to inform the community of the Late Mr Gietzelt’s contribution to the conservation of the area so an understanding of the merit of the site selection can be recognised. Mr Gietzelt’s community service contribution to the Shire extended beyond his terms as a Councillor and Shire President to his time

  • The Death of Captain Cook in Theatre 224
    The Many Deaths of Captain Cook A Study in Metropolitan Mass Culture, 1780-1810 Ruth Scobie PhD University of York Department of English April 2013 i Ruth Scobie The Many Deaths of Captain Cook Abstract This thesis traces metropolitan representations, between 1780 and 1810, of the violent death of Captain James Cook at Kealakekua Bay in Hawaii. It takes an interdisciplinary approach to these representations, in order to show how the interlinked texts of a nascent commercial culture initiated the creation of a colonial character, identified by Epeli Hau’ofa as the looming “ghost of Captain Cook.” The introduction sets out the circumstances of Cook’s death and existing metropolitan reputation in 1779. It situates the figure of Cook within contemporary mechanisms of ‘celebrity,’ related to notions of mass metropolitan culture. It argues that previous accounts of Cook’s fame have tended to overemphasise the immediacy and unanimity with which the dead Cook was adopted as an imperialist hero; with the result that the role of the scene within colonialist histories can appear inevitable, even natural. In response, I show that a contested mythology around Cook’s death was gradually constructed over the three decades after the incident took place, and was the contingent product of a range of texts, places, events, and individuals. The first section examines responses to the news of Cook’s death in January 1780, focusing on the way that the story was mediated by, first, its status as ‘news,’ created by newspapers; and second, the effects on Londoners of the Gordon riots in June of the same year.

  • Out of Control Climate Change in Cook: Hotter, Drier and Winter No More
    October 2018 Out of control climate change in Cook: Hotter, drier and winter no more Key points • Climate data modelling by the Science Division of the Queensland Department of Environment and Science (DES)1 shows that by mid-century communities in the federal electoral division of Cook would be markedly hotter, on average 15 per cent drier and experience more periods of extreme heat because of high global emissions. • By 2050, the seasonal cycles in Cook would be unrecognisable. Existing average winter conditions would not occur. Spring and Autumn conditions would move towards the middle of the year and contract to four and a half months combined. The rest of the year would be dominated by warmer temperatures associated with summer and joined by an extended and dangerous ‘new summer’ period. • This new climate would pose greater threats to human health and critical public infrastructure in the electorate. It would also require plant and animal species in the area to rapidly adapt to a heightened level of climate change, with many unlikely to cope. Federal electorate climate impact analysis The Australian Conservation Foundation (ACF) has commissioned design and data experts at the Australian National University (ANU) School of Art and Design to analyse existing climate model projections and apply them to selected federal electorates ahead of the 1 Queensland Government LongPaddock project, which uses the SILO database (http://www.longpaddock.qld.gov.au/silo) and is operated by DES. The climate ‘change factors’ used to calculate consistent climate scenarios data have been estimated using: Coupled Model Intercomparison Research Program 3 (CMIP3) patterns of change data (projected changes per degree of 21st Century global warming) supplied by the CSIRO and the UK Met Office/Hadley Centre; and data from AR4 SRES scenario temperature response curves (projected amounts of global warming) supplied by the CSIRO.

  • The Federal Redistribution 2006 NEW SOUTH WALES, Suggestion
    24 March 2006 Redistribution Committee for New South Wales Level 4, Roden Cutler House 24 Campbell Street, Haymarket, NSW 2000 Dear Commissioners, I attach the suggestion of the Australian Labor Party, (NSW Branch), for your consideration. This includes a map for each suggested Division and is provided by CD-ROM containing the MapInfo data used by the Australian Electoral Commission. Kind regards, Mark Arbib GENERAL SECRETARY Australian Labor Party (NSW Branch) Suggestions 1 of 36 AUSTRALIAN LABOR PARTY (NEW SOUTH WALES BRANCH) SUGGESTIONS 24TH MARCH, 2006. INTRODUCTION AND APPROACH ADOPTED The suggestions made by the Australian Labor Party (ALP) are the end product of a process that includes extensive consultation with both MP’s and party units. We had to take into account several considerations before making our suggestions. One consideration which frankly, we had to consider is the fact that the current boundaries are the most biased against the ALP in the entire history of Australia. Following the 2004 election, the Australian Labor Party (ALP) has 60 of the 150 seats in the House of Representatives. In 2004 the ALP’s national two party preferred (2PP) vote was 47.3%. On current electoral boundaries, for the ALP to win a majority (76) of Divisions it requires a uniform swing of 5% or 52.3% 2PP. In NSW, in 2004, on current boundaries, for the ALP to win a majority (26) it would have needed 53.4% of the 2PP vote in the State. Yet this state of affairs has arisen in spite of the 1984 reforms to the Australian Electoral Act of one vote one value.

  • 94 QUEENSLAND—ONE HUNDRED YEARS of DEFENCE the COLONY ESTABLISHMENT (Read by Commander N
    94 QUEENSLAND—ONE HUNDRED YEARS OF DEFENCE THE COLONY ESTABLISHMENT (Read by Commander N. S. Pixley, M.B.E., V.R.D., on July 26, 1958) On Separation from New South Wales on December 10, 1859, the responsibilities assumed by the new and sparsely populated Colony of Queensland included the defence of its long coastline of over 3,000 miles and its vast area of 670,500 square miles; an area as large as Great Britain, Ireland, France, Spain, Portugal and Italy together, or twice the area of New South Wales, but with a population of only 25,000 approximately, of which almost one third was concen­ trated in the towns of Brisbane and Ipswich in the far South-Eastern corner of the Colony. The small detachment of Imperial troops in Brisbane having been withdrawn some years before, the Colony lacked even the nucleus of a defence organi­ sation upon which to build. Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton (afterwards Lord Lytton) Minister of State for the Colonies, had, in a letter dated April 29, 1859, informed the Governor- elect, Sir George Bowen, of his appointment and included some sound advice as to the duties and bear­ ing of a Colonial Governor. The letter, which is quoted by Sir George in his book "Thirty years of Colonial Government," included the following:— "You will, as soon as possible, exert all energy and persuasion to induce the Colonists to see to their self defence internally. "Try to establish a good police: If you can then get the superior class of Colonist to assist in forming a Militia or Volunteer Corps, spare no pains to do so.
