1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,440 Speaker 1: Joining me on the line right now, though, is Kezier 2 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:07,160 Speaker 1: puric at a Kesier Hey, good morning, Katie Kezier. A 3 00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:10,080 Speaker 1: lot of discussion over the last few days about Holts. 4 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:12,520 Speaker 1: I'd actually spoken to his sister earlier in the week 5 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:16,960 Speaker 1: about the number of residents. Yes, yeah, I mean, what 6 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: do you make of this discussion? And then who's going 7 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:21,479 Speaker 1: to sort of manage it, whether it's going to be 8 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:23,280 Speaker 1: Litchfield or whether it's going to be Parmeston. 9 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:28,000 Speaker 2: Well, Katie, I spoke to Doug Barden, the Litchfield council mayor, 10 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,920 Speaker 2: only last week about the Holt's area and the matter 11 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 2: and a few other things, because we catch up on 12 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,519 Speaker 2: a regular basis, and he told me that in his 13 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 2: meetings and discussions with Athena Pasco Bell, she had said 14 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,800 Speaker 2: the Parmesan Council was not interested in anything like taking over, 15 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 2: you know, the Wholt's area because it's sort of close 16 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 2: to you know, Parmesan, I mean all Parmesan Council. But 17 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 2: Butt's onto darn it, Butts onto Lichfield. So how can 18 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 2: we now believe her word? Like she said that to 19 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 2: Doug Barden on more than one occasion. He told me 20 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 2: they are not interested and yet now she comes out 21 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 2: and says, oh, we think we should because the Lichfield 22 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,319 Speaker 2: Council residents are swimming in our pool and shopping in 23 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 2: our shops. Like how dare I can tell you this 24 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,959 Speaker 2: is just the nonsense argument. And I think I heard 25 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 2: Jerry Woods saying a whole swagger stuff has been provided 26 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 2: by the anti government, which it has to Parmersan, you know, 27 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 2: lots of sweetheart deals and pork barren, you know, for 28 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,479 Speaker 2: those electors. So she's saying, oh, urban density, and therefore 29 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 2: you know, questioning whether Lichfield Council has the capacity or 30 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 2: capability to manage it. I mean, how dare she We've 31 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 2: got some high denity or small density living out at 32 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 2: Humpty do we've got a cool linger across the road 33 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 2: with units and small housing lots and all that sort 34 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 2: of stuff. I mean, what people have to know who 35 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 2: don't know Lichfield Council has a flat rate system, whereas 36 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 2: Parmesan has the unimproved capital value. Now this will be 37 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 2: and let's call it an urban type development. And how 38 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 2: big the blocks are as yet to be seen, so 39 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 2: it might well have to be different rating system. Who knows, 40 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 2: But that's not for you to discuss Pasco Bell for 41 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 2: Lichfield Council and who and however it gets developed. Now 42 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 2: I heard Mary Well say there's water and other things 43 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 2: sort of perhaps planned for that area and good and 44 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 2: old people good. The fact that it's called Parlison Hospitals 45 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 2: means bugger all. It's in Litchville and it should have 46 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 2: been called a hospital after some well known territory person 47 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 2: in the medical sphere, I believe, and all that side 48 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 2: of the road is in Lichvielle. Litchfield Council is very 49 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,639 Speaker 2: capable and it's up to that council to discuss with 50 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 2: the anti government that's how they go forward. But you know, 51 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 2: I just think it's a grab for rate money and 52 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 2: it's also grab for power. 53 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 1: I mean, what do you make though of Like, what 54 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 1: do you make of that discussion that she'd have where 55 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: it like it is close to Palmeston, they are going 56 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 1: to be potentially, you know, using all those different facilities. 57 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: I mean, what do you make of that? 58 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 2: Katie? Katie, you can't presume to assume they will be 59 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 2: using all those facilities. It's like saying I can't go 60 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 2: into Darwin and go to the cinema or the movies 61 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 2: or the restaurants because it's close to I mean, Lichfield 62 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 2: goes right up to Nucky's lagoose heaven forbid a place 63 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,959 Speaker 2: you offer shop locally close to there. I mean, that's 64 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 2: just a nonsense argument. Well, I guess it goes Darwin 65 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 2: Parlis in Litchfield and we all use each other's services 66 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 2: and facility. 67 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 1: And the other part of that is you're a spot on. 68 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: We all use each other's facilities, and you know, it 69 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: doesn't sort of matter which part of the Northern Territory 70 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: you're living in. We all obviously pay our taxes too. 71 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 2: And Katie, I drive through Catherine and I go and 72 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 2: sit in there. Catherine Council, you know allocated park and 73 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 2: reserve areas. You know, like that's just a nonsense argument. 74 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 2: It is in Litchfield Council and it will stay in 75 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 2: Lichfield Council. And I just think that the Parlisan Council 76 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 2: should focus on their own efforts and we're governed to 77 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 2: stop the crime in their bloody community. That's impacting on 78 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 2: people who are too scared to even go and shop 79 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 2: in there. I don't know where she thinks we're going 80 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 2: to shop in there, because it's too bloody scary. You know, 81 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 2: does that mean Parlistan people can't come out to cool 82 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 2: Linger Well, I don't know. 83 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: I would say teasier I went. I actually went to 84 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: Gateway the other weekend and I was surprised at how 85 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: utterly lovely it was in there, Like I didn't have 86 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: an issue at all. 87 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a well planned and it's a nice shopping center. 88 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 2: It's got all the facilities good for older you know, 89 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 2: with coffee shops and sit down and have chin wags 90 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 2: and all that sort of stuff. Supermarket, cinema, nice easy places. 91 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 2: It's been a well designed shopping center and shops a 92 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 2: well run. It's got a few social issues around the fringes, 93 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 2: but then lots of our shopping centers. Yeah, you know, 94 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 2: thankfully we don't have those kind of issues out here. 95 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 2: It's bullies and the shopping center over the road. But 96 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 2: you know, this is I think what we should be 97 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 2: focusing on, and maybe this is a red herring chucked 98 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 2: out by Parmersan Council. What we should be focusing on 99 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 2: is how the Wholtz development is going to be developed, 100 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 2: because you know, this will be urban sized blocks, but 101 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 2: it abuts onto rule Land of which I'm one of them, 102 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 2: clearly a best at interest and all my neighbors. You know, 103 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 2: there are five ten twenty acre blocks and one hundred 104 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 2: acre blocks in that area, and so you're going to 105 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,599 Speaker 2: potentially have a clash of culture. We've had public meetings 106 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 2: and the public servants were pretty hopeless and the true 107 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 2: North communication Bob, they had no bloody or idea what 108 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 2: they were talking about. He is just giving us little. 109 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 1: Bit of what why in what why? 110 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 2: Well, well, Katie, we were told there was going to 111 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,799 Speaker 2: be a two hundred meter buffer from the neighbour's background 112 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 2: towards the hospital. Now it's not going to be one 113 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty. And then they told us, oh, we're 114 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 2: going to have major power lines running down there. Now 115 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 2: we're going to have sewage running down here. Every time 116 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 2: we have a public meeting, they keep changing the story, 117 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 2: so they can't be believed either. And I know they 118 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 2: just did a summary recently. That area originally was planned 119 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 2: to be one hectic kind of blocks of lands under 120 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 2: a previously ORPI government. And the government should be going 121 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 2: back and looking at that, and I will be talking 122 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 2: to leave Nacchio and hers. That's how that land should 123 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 2: be developed to be semi rule because it is located 124 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 2: right near to rule. Now, the one thing I wanted 125 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 2: to add, Katie, the Anti government does not own Colowndi. 126 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 2: It is still owned by the Commonwealth. And I can 127 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 2: tell you now, I spoke to someone this morning in 128 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 2: the military and there are still military people attached to 129 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 2: Krondi in a caretaker situation. So for the Chief Minister 130 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 2: to say, oh, we're looking to build this eleven thousand 131 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 2: blocks bone but you said twenty five or twenty eight published, 132 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,159 Speaker 2: they haven't even finished. They haven't even probably started negotiations. 133 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 2: Engy government has to buy that land. 134 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, Keesier, we are going to have. 135 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,040 Speaker 2: To even start developing or thinking about it. 136 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 1: We are going to have to wrap up. We've got 137 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 1: to get across and do a whip around the nation 138 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: before we get to the midday news. But we're going 139 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: to see you tomorrow morning for the week that was. Oh, 140 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 1: of course, we'll see you then for good stuff. Good 141 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 1: on you Easier, Thank you,
