00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:43,639
Speaker 4: forget it.

71
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 2: Be there or be square because they.

72
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 4: Are so popular and so good and they actually people

73
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 4: care for them because not only they ask questions, but

74
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 4: they get their leafless What to plan in your garden,

75
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 4: how to look after your kids, your three so obviously

76
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 4: they and looking after the kids, because teaching your kids

77
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 4: to plan the three and look after the three, it's

78
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 4: a great exercise. It teaches them how important nature is.

79
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 4: And since we're there, as we mentioned on the sixteenth

80
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 4: of November, I have been advised by the Prime Minister's

81
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 4: Office that the Prime Minister at this stage is not

82
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 4: locked completely, but it is locked. Twenty ninth of November

00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 3: That is good to hear.

85
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: I think it's such an important event and it is

86
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: such an important commemoration the fiftieth you know, the fiftieth year.

87
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: I think it is you know, it's it would be

88
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: wonderful to have the Prime Minister here.

89
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 4: The reality is we can't get the Prime Minister here

90
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 4: of the twenty four of December. You can't get anybody

91
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 4: because there are so many things to compete with and

92
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 4: the other thing you have to remember the human beings.

93
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 2: They've got families as well, but we haven't here twenty nine.

94
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 4: That's really really good, and of course we will have

95
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 4: on the twenty second ecumenical service at Saint Mary's cathedral

96
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,560

Speaker 4: on leading up to the Cyclone Tracy anniversary.

104
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was king to find out, like if there's

107
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 4: And yeah, also they can actually register their event because

108
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 4: it's important that actually not only the big organization have events,

109
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 4: but the.

110
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,720
Speaker 2: Group of people. I heard people said to me, Oh, no,

111
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 2: we're not going to do anything.

112
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 4: We've just got to get with the neighbors, have a

113
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 4: class of one, or have a barbecue. It's too traumatic

114
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,479
Speaker 4: to think about it. And that's I understand that one.

115
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 4: But as they before, again, things is happening. Everything is happening.

116
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:49,040
Speaker 4: From I believe there's a theatrical place starting soon and

117
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 4: I haven't got informed of the details, but you can

118
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,919
Speaker 4: find all this information in the council website.

119
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,280
Speaker 1: A quick listener question Jimmy from a like a call

120
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 1: through asking why parents and kids playing soccer at Malaco

121
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: will going to be each charged for parking, saying that

122
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 1: there's nowhere else to park.

123
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 4: We're not charging for parking there only if you're a

124
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 4: park illegally because we have a lot of people parking

125
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 4: on trees and everything else or next.

126
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 3: To You can't park next to the trees or anything.

127
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 4: Now well you can't put on top of the trees

128
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 4: like people on the grass area. There are clearly defined

129
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 4: areas in the In my luck oval.

130
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 3: There's not enough parks there.

131
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 4: Were actually going to actually increase the size of parking

132
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 4: because we're putt in a multigenerational playground there.

133
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 2: So part of that one is actually.

134
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:31,680
Speaker 3: This is the first time hearing of it.

135
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 1: But I do have to take my kids there from

136
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 1: time to time to play games, and I would be

137
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 1: absolutely spewing if I got myself a parking five when

138
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 1: I parked.

139
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:40,039
Speaker 2: Under a tree.

140
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:44,239
Speaker 4: You don't pay for in baggage. It's clearly defined cutb

141
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:45,919
Speaker 4: on pack. I understand that there's not enough cut up,

142
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 4: but the problem is the moment we increase the use

143
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 4: of the play of the ovals.

144
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 2: More people go there.

145
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, but like at Malak there people are parked on it.

146
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 1: It's like the dirt it's dirt grass kind of area

147
00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 1: where there are trees there.

148
00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,359
Speaker 3: But are you saying you can't park there anymore?

149
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 2: And so only the car.

150
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 3: There's a little driveway to get in there.

151
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 4: But were actually looking at the increasing the size of

152
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 4: parking area because of the increased demand and the future carbon.

153
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 3: It's going to be worse. People are parked on the

154
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 3: side of the road.

155
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 2: Place. We will increase the parking area.

156
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 3: I mean in the meantime parking areas.

157
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 4: Meantime, take care, don't park in areas that says don't

158
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 4: park here, park in the defined areas.

159
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: This is not somewhere though, that says that you can't

160
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,039
Speaker 1: on that sort of area under the trees.

161
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 4: Well, if there's no sciences, don't bark here, like myself

162
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,119
Speaker 4: will park there too, does a do you before? Because

163
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 4: we understand the increase in demand and we've seen that

164
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,599
Speaker 4: one in all our rivels, we're increasing the size the

165
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 4: proper parking area.

166
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:43,719
Speaker 3: For people to So when's that going to get underway?

167
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,599
Speaker 2: We're actually under designers, so we speak. Okay, we know

168
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 2: about the problem. We are very well.

169
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, look people are already messaging through saying Katie there's

170
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 1: not enough room.

171
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,479
Speaker 3: At the lake and it's true. And look we want

172
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 3: kids to play soccer facilities.

173
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, you get more people.

174
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is the thing.

175
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 1: Then is it just a bit revenue raising really from

176
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 1: the council then to find people when they're there, like

177
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: on a Sunday morning with their kids.

178
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,599
Speaker 4: People in Nakara, they're actually parking on the verge on

179
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 4: the grass area, despite the fact we're working with the

180
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 4: groups and the teams to advise people not to park.

181
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 4: I've got people that are going to some churches in

182
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 4: the city. They decided no, I'm not going to actually

183
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 4: park there and walk twenty meters or the meters of

184
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 4: the park in the grass on the park next to

185
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 4: the church. We're trying to tell people this is actually

186
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 4: a park, it's on a parking spot.

187
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 2: But certainly we hear people and we're going to increase

188
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 2: the sult.

189
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: Well literally somebody has just said my kids are soccer.

190
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: There's probably over one hundred and fifty cars on the grass.

191
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 2: There's no room, and that's where we're going to put

192
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 2: more room for parking.

193
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 3: But so in the meantime those people got to get fined.

194
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 4: Well no, no, very unlikely to get fined. But as

195
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 4: I did before, just obey the rules and we're working.

196
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 4: I mean, it doesn't happen overnight. We're actually working as

197
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 4: we speak.

198
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 1: The text line is actually going off about this. There

199
00:07:58,000 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 1: must be a lot of people that do have kids

200
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 1: there that are obviously playing. I know myself, I've been

201
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: there for games and I, like I say, I think

202
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 1: it would be pretty low blow if you end up

203
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: with a parking fine when you're parked on the grass

204
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: like that's not that's you know, that is like that,

205
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: it's a whole area that's you know, that's also fenced off,

206
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 1: so you can't go towards those fields either.

207
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 4: Well, we're working together with the Territory Football League and

208
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 4: everybody else to actually show the problem, because we understand

209
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 4: there's a.

210
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 1: Problem, all right, con this person's saying, I'll take a
