Issue

To consider the public submission and adoption of Amendment No. 2 to East Wanneroo
Cell 5 Agreed Structure Plan (ASP).

Background

Council, at its meeting of 26 November 2002 (PD13-11/02), resolved to adopt the East Wanneroo Cell 5 ASP after considering the modifications requested by the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC).  Attachment 1 shows the ASP.

Detail

Allerding Burgess Planning Consultants, acting on behalf of various landowners in the southern portion of Cell 5 has requested an amendment to that portion of the ASP bounded by Kingsway in the north, Rangeview Road in the west, Hepburn Avenue in the south and the eastern extent of Cell 5.  This amendment proposal includes:

 

1.       Modifications to the internal subdivisional roads and access points onto surrounding roads to improve sight lines, provide greater opportunity for the current landowners to retain their existing houses and propose a more efficient lot layout/yield;

 

2.       Recoding of a portion of Lots 125 & 126 Kingsway from R20 to R30 and portions of Lots 131, 138 & 140 to 142 Landsdale Road and Lot 139 Rangeview Road from R20 to R40 to provide a range of housing types, encourage the redevelopment of existing houses and to accord with the revised structure plan design; and

 

3.       Deletion of the Buffer Precinct on the Zoning Plan in the ASP, as the poultry farm on Lot 23 Kingsway has ceased operating, the sheds have been removed and the land is being subdivided for residential purposes.

 

A copy of the proposed amended Structure Plan Map is included as Attachment 2.

Consultation

Pursuant to Clause 9.5 of District Planning Scheme No. 2 (DPS2) and Council’s delegation register, this amendment was advertised for a period of 28 days by way of two on-site signs, advertisements in the Wanneroo Times and letters to affected and nearby landowners.

 

The submission period closed on the 8 February 2005 and one letter of objection was received from a resident located approximately 350 metres north of the amendment area.

Comment

The main issues raised by the submission, together with a comment on each is outlined below:

 

Issue 1 – Density and Lot sizes

 

The lot sizes in Landsdale area are reducing and has resulted in the removal of the natural landscape and the ‘feel’ of family development lifestyles that were established in previous subdivision (15-20 years ago). Smaller lots sizes result in the increase of other issues such as noise, heat and increased water use.

 

Comment

 

The majority of the locality is coded R20, which is the base density code that covers the majority of the City’s residential areas.  There are however several areas that have been identified as either R30 or R40.

 

The range of densities is considered to be consistent with the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) policies such as contained within the Development Control Policy Manual and Liveable Neighbourhoods. Part 2 of the Residential section of the ‘Development Control Policy Manual (including subdivision)’, identifies as an objective the need “to facilitate the supply of residential lots of a wide range of sizes and shapes….”.

 

The WAPC’s Guidelines for Preparation of Local Structure Plans (1992) Part 3.4.1 – The Location and Density of Housing Areas, promotes a mix in housing densities and specifically suggests that structure plans should “include medium and high density housing sites particular near significant employment locations, public transport routes, commercial centres, education facilities and recreation areas.”

 


The creation of a variety of lot sizes within the structure plan is also in keeping with the City’s strategic direction.  The Healthy Communities goal of the City’s Strategic Plan seeks to “…foster an identity that that promotes lifestyle choices…”.  The City’s draft Smart Growth Strategy also includes “Lifestyle and Housing Choice as one of its six principles.  This principle seeks to encourage the provision of a variety of housing types and the enhancement of lifestyle options.  The City’s draft Local Housing Strategy, which is being prepared pursuant to the above Smart Growth principle, includes as a main objective “… to ensure that a wide range and choice of housing is provided to meet the changing social and economic needs of the community…”.

 

Recommendation

 

That the issue be dismissed.

 

Issue 2 – Road Design

 

The design of the square layout does not promote community feel and encourages young car drivers to perform ‘wheelies’ up and down the streets creating more social issues.

 

Comment

 

The road system proposed within the amendment area has been designed to provide greater connectivity and accessibility for residents within the area.  The road system provides for permeable and highly interconnected streets that offer a number of possible directions and routes through the area and along with greater opportunities for passive surveillance of public areas by the residents.  Two roundabouts will be constructed along Rangeview Road and other traffic calming measures will be included at the subdivision stage to discourage through traffic and speeding.

 

Recommendation

 

That this issue be dismissed.

Statutory Compliance

This structure plan amendment has followed the procedures outlined in Part 9 of DPS2.

Strategic Implications

Consideration of this amendment to the ASP is consistent with the goal of providing Healthy Communities under the City’s Strategic Plan and in particular, Strategy 2.2 of the Planning and Development Directorate Strategic Plan, which seeks to provide a cohesive system of integrated land use planning.

Issue

To consider the compulsory acquisition of land for the extension of Mirrabooka Avenue through Madeley/Darch.

Background

The infrastructure contribution provisions of District Planning Scheme No. 2 (DPS2) provide for land acquisition and construction of Mirrabooka Avenue through Madeley/Darch.  All of the land required for Mirrabooka Avenue, between Hepburn Avenue and Gnangara Road, has been acquired with the exception of three land parcels. Two of these are located between Kingsway and Landsdale Road.  Negotiations with the owners have stalled and the City can therefore not commit to a design and construction program. The construction of Mirrabooka Avenue is a matter of high priority and compulsory acquisition from the landowners who are unwilling to advance a negotiated purchase is therefore warranted.

Detail

The two sections to be acquired are situated within Lot 19 on the south side of Kingsway and Lot 55 on the north side of Landsdale Road (refer Attachment 1).  Lot 19 comprises 2.0790 hectares and is owned by Mr. G.P.Skarlatos. The road alignment and associated drainage sump requires 1.3814 hectares.  Lot 55 is owned by the Palermo family and comprises 2.2485 hectares. The road alignment and an underpass apron require 1.5000 hectares. Both affected properties are vacant and unimproved.

 

The road alignment is situated on the eastern side of the properties. The ground levels are however such that considerable battering will be required on the western side of the road that will occupy most of the remaining land in the lots. This requirement means that the compulsory acquisition of the whole of Lots 19 and 55 is appropriate.

Comment

The acquisition and construction of Mirrabooka Avenue to link into the existing and future arterial road network is a major goal of the East Wanneroo project.

 

The Land Administration Act 1997 outlines the process for the taking of land for public works. In summary, the process involves the City requesting the Minister for Lands to issue a notice to the landowners advising of the intention to take the land. This notice includes details on the extent of the land required, the purpose for which it is being taken, the date it is required, the acquisition process, the eligibility of the land owner for compensation or payment for the land and the ability of the owner to object to the taking.


The notice is published in a newspaper circulating throughout the state. The Minister will consider any objections and make a decision to either make an order for the taking of the land or to not make an order. If the Taking Order is granted the landowner is entitled to be paid compensation. The Act provides that the value of the land can be either agreed amongst the parties or settled by referral to a compensation court. The process is likely to take in the order of eight to twelve months.

Statutory Compliance

The City must comply with the provisions of the Land Administration Act 1997.

Strategic Implications

The acquisition of the land required for extending Mirrabooka Avenue is consistent with the Healthy Communities Goal of the City’s Strategic Plan by providing and managing infrastructure to meet the needs of the community.

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

The acquisition and construction of the Mirrabooka Avenue is to be wholly funded by the East Wanneroo Cell 5 and Cell 6 Overdraft Accounts.  The funds in each cell account are raised by the levying of an infrastructure contribution against each subdivider or developer of land within these cells. Both cell accounts contain sufficient funds to meet their respective liability and the acquisition will not impact on any other aspect of the City’s operations.

Voting Requirements

Simple Majority.

EndStrip - This will not be printed so do not delete

Recommendation

That Council:-

1.       AUTHORISES procedures being commenced for the taking of land from Lot 19 Kingsway and Lot 55 Landsdale Road, Darch for the purpose of extending Mirrabooka Avenue as well as associated infrastructure and batters without the agreement of the owners under the provisions of the Land Administration Act 1997.

2.       AUTHORISES a request being made to the Minister for Lands for the dedication as a public road of the land taken for the alignment of Mirrabooka Avenue from Lot 19 Kingsway and Lot 55 Landsdale Road, Darch.

3.       INDEMNIFIES the Minister for Lands as required under section 56 of the Land Administration Act 1997, against any claims for compensation equal to the amount of all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by the Minister in considering and granting the request for dedication as a road.

Issue

To consider a 27 signatory petition received by the City seeking:

 

the gardens and building to be maintained to an acceptable standard to conform with the Local Authority bylaws”.

Background

On 22 February 2005, Council was presented with a petition in respect to the childcare centre on Lot 603 Houghton Drive, Carramar.

Detail

The petition expresses the signatories’ concern that the centre is not being kept in a tidy and orderly manner (refer Location Plan Attachment 1).

 

The Junior Junction Childcare Centre is located at the corner of Houghton Drive and Millendon Street, Carramar (refer Approved Site Plan - Attachment 2). 

 

The childcare centre was approved on 27 February 2002, subject to two conditions “7” and “8” relating to landscaping:

 

7)      The lodging of detailed landscape plans, to the satisfaction of the City, for the development site and the adjoining road verge(s) with the Building Licence Application.

 

8)      Landscaping and reticulation to be established in accordance with the approved plans prior to the development first being occupied and thereafter maintained to the satisfaction of the City.

 

Administration has contacted the owners/operators of the Centre and discussed maintenance issues.  The Centre Director, Ms Laura Simatovic, submitted a written response to the City on 18 February 2005 advising that landscaping plans will be lodged for the front areas of the Centre and that quotes have been obtained.

Consultation

Nil.

Comment

The petition expresses concerns that are currently being followed up by Administration.  The issues raised can be adequately managed through enforcement of the City’s development conditions.  The Administration has requested that the owner/operator comply with the conditions of approval and the owner/operator has agreed to attending to the poor condition of the verge.  It is recommended that Council receive the petition and advise the nominated petition elect that the matter is being attended to.

Statutory Compliance

A Childcare Centre use was approved under delegated authority by Administration on 27 February 2002 (application DA02/0205). This approval superseded a previous approval issued by the City on 6 June 2001 for the same use.

 

An investigation of the site has determined that the use is not being conducted in accordance with the conditions of the City’s approval and therefore the City can seek compliance with its conditions.

Strategic Implications

The maintenance of the childcare centre site would be consistent with the City’s Healthy Community goal in the Strategic Plan, which seeks to foster the provision of quality services and infrastructure.

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

Recommendation

That Council CONCLUDES the petition from The Carramar Resident Association regarding the Childcare Centre on Lot 603 (63) Houghton Drive, Carramar and advises the petition elect that the matter is being attended to by the City as part of the conditions of the Development Approval issued on 27 February 2002.

Issue

To consider a request to part fund the installation of “Headlights On” safety message signs at the western end of Neaves Road, Mariginiup.

Background

A Warrant Officer from the RAAF at Bullsbrook has written to the City requesting support for encouraging motorists who use Neaves Road to travel with their vehicle headlights turned on. This safety message will assist in making drivers aware of the need to increase vehicle visibility on rural roads.  It is proposed that a sign be located at each end of Neaves Road advising of the proposed message – refer to Attachment 1 for the location plan and Attachment 2 for the proposed message.

 

The City has been requested to consider contributing one quarter of the funding towards the cost of manufacture and installation.

 

The Warrant Officer initially presented the proposal to the May 2004 meeting of the City of Wanneroo RoadWise Advisory Committee where it was requested the proposal be further investigated with the view of providing an update at a subsequent meeting of the Committee.

 

The total cost for the supply and installation of the safety message signs was quoted at $4,980, with the materials component indicated to cost $1,600 per sign and the balance being the cost of installation.

 

The City was requested to consider provision of one quarter of the funding at $1,250.

 

It is noted that support was also being requested from the City of Swan, WALGA RoadWise, Main Roads WA and the Federal Corporate Services Defence.

 

A progress report was presented to the February 2005 meeting of the City of Wanneroo RoadWise Advisory Committee.

Detail

In update, the Warrant Officer has subsequently sourced support from four other sources, with the pledges being obtained from:

 

·         WALGA RoadWise                                         $1,500.

·         RAAF Pearce                                                    $1,500.

·         Corporate Services Defence                              $1,500

·         Main Roads WA                                               Installation costs - conditions apply.

 

The Warrant Officer has advised that the cost of purchasing and installing the safety message signs will be covered from the funds/service in kind pledged.  As a consequence of this funding support the City’s contribution in this regard is now not required.  Council’s support and approval for the signage is necessary, however, as the conditions of Main Roads WA support for the project is subject to the proviso that the City will be responsible for the maintenance and replacement of the sign located within its jurisdiction after the initial installation.

Comment

The City of Wanneroo RoadWise Advisory Committee considers the proposal is worthy of support.

 

The City of Wanneroo RoadWise Advisory Committee subsequently discussed the potential to change the messages every three months as this has been observed to be the typical effective time span to retain driver’s attention.  Suggestions included “Don’t Drive Tired” and bushfire messages, with the themes and associated wording still to be developed by the Committee.  The cost of manufacture of two additional safety message signs to be located at the western end of Neaves Road (ie: within the City’s jurisdiction) is estimated at $700 each plus an additional $600 per year to changeover the signs on a quarterly basis.  The initial cost of $1,400 for the supply of these signs can be funded from the 2004/2005 RoadWise budget allocation.

 

The level of support from the City of Swan for signage at the eastern end of Neaves Road has yet to be determined as it is still to hold it’s first RoadWise meeting for 2005.

Statutory Compliance

Nil

Strategic Implications

The proposal to supply and install safety message signage at the eastern and western ends of Neaves Road is consistent with the City’s Strategic Plan 2002-2005 goals and strategy:

            “Healthy Communities

2.3     Support and encourage the delivery of a safe and effective transport network

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

A total of $1,400 will need to be approved by Council from the 2004/2005 RoadWise budget allocation for the supply of three alternate safety message signs in further support of the original initiative with regard to “Headlights On” signs at both ends of Neaves Road.

 

The three additional safety message signs for which funding approval is being sort are to be located at the western end of Neaves Road (ie: within the City’s jurisdiction).

Issue

To consider the possible road closure of the eastern access between Camira Way and Coastal Rise, Quinns Rocks.

Background

Coastal Rise has two access locations, the eastern access is a short link to Camira Way and the western access was an intersection on a sharp bend in Ocean Drive prior to upgrading works recently undertaken by the City.  During 2004 the western access was relocated away from the bend and made part of the roundabout at the intersection of Ocean Drive and Camira Way.

 

Residents have raised concerns regarding traffic safety at the eastern access and some have suggested a closure of the link in conjunction with the construction of the final section of Coastal Rise.

Detail

The eastern access between Camira Way and Coastal Rise is located on the outside of a bend in Camira Way. When travelling towards the east, there is no hazard generated by having the access in this location.  However, when travelling towards the west, traffic is on a downgrade as well as on a bend.  Furthermore, the opening to this access and the landscaping of the nature strip adjacent to it appears very like a median island of a divided carriageway road and in this scenario a driver could to misinterpret the road layout.  By utilising appropriately installed Chevron Board and Keep Right signage this hazard could be reduced.  Alternatively the hazard can be removed by closure of the access at that location. In this instance the removal of a hazard is in the opinion of Administration the preferred road safety action.

 

The possible reconfiguration of Coastal Rise is shown on City of Wanneroo Drawing
T2040-1-0 – refer Attachment 1.

Consultation

In February 2005, the owners and residents of the nine properties adjacent to Coastal Rise were contacted by letter asking for comment on a possible closure of the access between Camira Way and Coastal Rise (ie: eastern access). A concept plan of the closure and construction of the last section of Coastal Rise was attached (ie: the plan as attached to this report).

 

A comment period of two weeks was allowed.

 

Three responses were received, with two in favour of the concept and one against the location but not the concept of only one access to Camira Way.

 

Suggestions included in the responses are summarised as follows:

1.             Inclusion of an additional turning area on the new bend near the cul-de-sac head. The reason for this request stems from a perceived need that an additional turning area needs to be provided when vehicles are parked in the cul-de-sac head.  If this were to be supported then vehicles would be required to reverse out of the cul-de-sac head to this additional turning area.

2.             Inclusion in the road construction of an area behind the kerb for placement of waste collection bins.

3.             Closure of the newly constructed access at the roundabout and retain the eastern access to Camira Way. It is noted that the respondent in this instance is considering a future house on a vacant site and envisages a crossover being constructed to the major roundabout at Ocean Drive/Camira Way/Coastal Rise.

Comment

The closure of the eastern access will be a positive hazard reduction. The alternative of closing the western access link will not alter the identified hazard that exists at the eastern access. The closure of the newly realigned western access would result in the removal of a recently constructed and safe intersection of Coastal Rise with the other roads.

 

Provision of an additional turning area is not necessary.  As the suggested location is on a bend in Coastal Rise and would also conflict with a proposed pedestrian link from Coastal Rise to the existing Camira Way pathway network and would unnecessarily create a hazard.  If residents foresee vehicles parking in the cul-de-sac head as being a problem, then declaring the cul-de-sac as a no parking area by way of formal parking prohibition can control the problem.

 

The inclusion of a shared waste collection bin pad before the cul-de-sac would assist the waste collection service and should be considered administratively if the concept proceeds to detailed design.

Statutory Compliance

Council may close a section of road reserve to the through movement of vehicles in accordance with the Local Government Act 1995 Section 3.50 (as amended).

Strategic Implications

The decision to consider the closure of the eastern access between Camira Way and Coastal Rise is consistent with the following City of Wanneroo Strategic Plan 2002 – 2005 goals and objectives:

 

“Healthy Communities

2.3 Support and encourage the delivery of a safe and effective transport network.

2.6 Provide and manage infrastructure to meet the needs of the community.”

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

The estimated cost of the works as shown in concept plan number T2040-1-0 is $50,000.  The funding for these capital works associated with the proposed road closure will need to be considered by Council in the Draft 2005/2006 Capital Works Budget.

Recommendation

That Council:-

1.           PROCEEDS to advertise the proposed road closure of the eastern access between Coastal Rise and Camira Way, Quinns Rocks in accordance with the Local Government Act Section 3.50 as amended and install appropriate signage advising of the proposal at the site of the proposed closure.

2.           LISTS for consideration in the draft 2005/2006 Roadworks Capital Works Program an amount of $50,000 for the proposed capital works associated with the proposed road closure of the eastern access between Coastal Rise and Camira Way, Quinns Rocks.

3.           ADVISES the owners and residents of the nine properties adjacent to Coastal Rise, Quinns Rocks, who were consulted about the possible road closure of the eastern access between Coastal Rise and Camira Way of Council’s decision.

Issue

To consider parking prohibitions on sections of Victorsen Parade, Clarkson.

Background

Victorsen Parade extends 560 m from Aldersea Circle to Belleville Gardens and the adjacent land usages are a public sports oval and a primary school on the western side and residential on the eastern side. The residential area has two controlled access places each with seven houses. There are on-road parking embayments along the western side of the road.

 

When football is being played on the sports oval, cars are parked along Victorsen Parade, on the nature strips and within the controlled access places in a manner such that the parked vehicles become obstructions to through traffic and to residents accessing their own properties.

 

The number of available parking bays in Anthony Waring Park was expanded in March 2004, however the problem persists at the times of changeover between games.

 

The primary school has internal parking used by parents. The School Board and the Principal have identified sight distance concerns due to the closeness of some on-road parking to the school’s access.

 

The two parking concerns have been treated in a proposal for parking restrictions.

Detail

Inappropriate parking along sections of Victorsen Parade restricts traffic movement for residents, obstructs footpath access and compromises sight distance for child pedestrians and cyclists. The extent of the problem has been verified by Administration through the assistance of Rangers Services.

 

The proposed parking prohibitions for Victorsen Parade are detailed in City of Wanneroo Drawing T2037-1-0 – Attachment 1 refers. The proposal is to restrict the times that parking is permissible in the area near the school access and by the sports oval. The parking restrictions are only for Saturday and Sunday between the hours of 8am to 1pm so that the residents and their visitors are not adversely affected.

 

The removal of one parking embayment to the left of the school access will be permanent.

 

The proposed parking prohibitions will limit both illegal and inappropriate parking.

Consultation

A letter was sent to the residents and the school principal in January 2005 outlining the proposed parking restrictions. Responses were received by telephone from the school principal and three residents supporting the proposed parking prohibitions.

 

An additional request to fully treat the second controlled access place was also raised as a few vehicles were starting to be parked in that section as well.  The extended proposed parking prohibitions are detailed in City of Wanneroo Drawing T2037-1-1 – Attachment 2 refers.

 

Experience has shown that enforcement of parking prohibitions in similar situations may transfer the parking problem to the other the roads. In this area there are two cul-de-sacs that might be used, however the oval is not visible from them so they are not desirable roads for parents to wait for their children to finish their sport activities. As a means to addressing these concerns, Administration will monitor the situation for the first month after installation of the parking prohibition signs and should additional signs be required a further report will be submitted for Council’s consideration.

Comment

The demand for parking appears to exceed the available parking area required to cater for the sports ground and generally occurs at the changeover time between games. The potential exists for the parking area on the sports ground to be substantially extended at a cost to the City. The potential also exists for the sports body to increase the time spacing between games to avoid the pressure on the parking. An increased separation of 15 to 20 minutes would allow most vehicles associated with the first game to leave before people arrive for the following game.

Statutory Compliance

The installation of prohibition signage and yellow edge lines will allow the enforcement of Part 4 Clause 38 of the City’s Parking and Facilities Local Law 2003.

 

Regulation 143 (3) of the Traffic Code 2000 indicates that vehicles are not allowed to stop within 10 metres of an intersection or carriageway. The prohibition signs will allow the enforcement of this particular section of the Traffic Code and enhance sight distance at intersections.

Strategic Implications

The proposal to install parking prohibition signs in Victorsen Parade is consistent with the following City of Wanneroo Strategic Plan (2002-2005) goals and strategies:

 

“Healthy Communities,

2.3       Support and encourage the delivery of a safe and effective transport network.

2.4       To support safe and secure communities.

2.6       To provide appropriate infrastructure to approve safety and security within the Community.”

Issue

To consider the impact the closure of Pinjar Road, Mariginiup south of the Neaves Road intersection has had on the surrounding rural and urban road networks.

Background

At the Ordinary Council Meeting held on 23 November 2005, Resolution PD14-11/04 Closure of Pinjar Road at Neaves Road, Banksia Grove – Mariginiup was adopted. The text of the resolution authorising the closure was:

 

“That Council:-

 

1.       MAKES an order for the closure of a thoroughfare to vehicles for a period of four years pursuant to Section 3.50 of the Local Government Act 1995, in respect to the southern alignment of Pinjar Road at its junction with Neaves Road, Mariginiup conditional on the opening to traffic of the new Joondalup Drive connection to Neaves Road at its intersection with Pinjar Road.”

 

The closure occurred on Friday 28 January 2005.

 

Following the closure, the reactions have been varied. As expected there was the initial adverse reaction to change with most people who contacted the Administration being hostile and disorientated at having to deviate from their normal route. The section of Pinjar Road south of Neaves Road is still a typical example of a few drivers’ behaviour where five sets of signs including deviation directions are ignored as the drivers proceed to the bund across the road where they cannot proceed further.

 

After four weeks, most drivers have adjusted to using either the Wanneroo Road / Joondalup Road route that will be the major route in the future or the Tumbleweed Drive link between Pinjar Road and Joondalup Drive.

 

The public notification in advance of the Pinjar Road closure and as part of the preparatory decision making process has been criticised by many residents and motorists. The proposal to close was published in “The Wanneroo Times” newspaper on 5 October 2004. Copies of the notice and plans were to be available at the New Civic Centre and each of the City’s libraries as well as being part of the City’s website information. The advertising was in accordance with the Local Government Act 1995 Section 1.7. The public notice and plan were available for a period exceeding the minimum period required.

 

The criticism was related to the limitations that occur when just complying with the legal procedure.

 

1.             The selected newspaper was generally circulated throughout the district in that the urban residences to the west of Pinjar Road would have the free paper delivered to every residence. The paper is available at libraries and some shopping venues. The paper is not delivered to owners of undeveloped properties and is not delivered to the residences in the area to the east of Pinjar Road.

2.             During the notice period for comment the motoring public were not made aware of the proposal. This could have been arranged by installing simple advisory signage at the site of the proposed closure.

3.             There was no letter mail-out to the owners and residents who may be positively or negatively affected by the proposed closure.

 

Signage has affected the acceptance of the change by the motoring public and by local businesses.

 

Clear directional and advisory signage for use after the closure has been an issue. The Council report PD14-11/04 included the Administration’s proposal for signage to be prepared and installed in advance so as to be ready for display after the closure physically occurred. Liaison with Main Roads WA was necessary as some signage needed to be moved on roads that are under their control. In addition Landstart, as the developer, had to reinstall signage removed during their construction works. A joint meeting was held at Main Roads WA on 30 November 2004 where the necessary signage was agreed. Main Roads WA undertook to arrange all signage provided the City and Landstart contributed their part of the costs. The financial aspects were concluded early in December. Most of the signage was not installed before the closure and some critical advisory signage had not been installed by four weeks after the closure. Main Roads WA has been actively pursued to improve their performance in regard to signage.

 

There are three other issues that have impacted upon the level of acceptance of the closure at this time:

 

1.             The realignment of Pinjar Road within a new subdivisional development not having been constructed to link to Joondalup Drive.

2.             The Wanneroo Road / Joondalup Drive traffic signalised intersection upgrade not being constructed.

3.             The section of Wanneroo Road south of Joondalup Drive not being constructed to a dual carriageway, four lane standard.

 

The impact of the change to the road network has stabilised in the four weeks after the closure of Pinjar Road. There are four areas of continuing concern:

 

1.             Viridian Drive, Banksia Grove.

2.             Tumbleweed Drive, Banksia Grove.

3.             Coogee Road / Adams Road / Dempster Place, Mariginiup.

4.             Intersection of Pinjar Road / Coogee Road / Tumbleweed Drive.

 

In the first two weeks following the closure over 90 residents phoned, wrote, emailed or came in person to make comment and seek information about the closure. Two informal evening meetings have been held with residents from the Special Rural areas east of Pinjar Road. In the main, the Chairperson of the Banksia Grove Residents Association has represented the Banksia Grove residents. Administration has had several meeting with the Chairperson.

Detail

1.        Traffic Flows Overview.

The traffic flow at the Neaves Road / Pinjar Road intersection in December 2004 was 2,298 vehicles per day (vpd) along Neaves Road (east & west route) and 2,356 vpd along Pinjar Road (north & south route). The percentages of commercial vehicles in those traffic numbers were 9% and 22% respectively. The total traffic flow numbers are the highest recorded for Pinjar Road and the lowest recorded for Neaves Road. The Neaves Road traffic in the past three years would typically be 3,500 vpd.  The total traffic numbers are low when compared with other regional and district distributor roads.

 

After the road closure, the Neaves Road traffic numbered 3,571vpd and Pinjar Road traffic numbered 1,904 vpd. The traffic numbers are of a similar magnitude to those recorded before the closure. It can be inferred that the closure has not substantially altered the number of vehicles moving to or from locations to the north or east of the Pinjar Road / Neaves Road intersection.

 

This inference is supported when the traffic flow numbers on the roads south of Joondalup Drive – Neaves Road are examined.  As expected there has been a rebalance in traffic flows. The traffic along Joondalup Drive has increased by nearly 4,000 vpd while on Pinjar Road south of Coogee Road/Tumbleweed Drive traffic has decreased by 4,200 vpd. More specific traffic flow variations are discussed as follows.

 

Within Banksia Grove and the Special Rural area east of Pinjar Road there have been different changes in traffic flow. The area of concern is shown on Attachment 1.

 

1.1.            Banksia Grove.

There exists a near balance between the traffic number increases and the traffic number decreases on the access roads servicing Banksia Grove. There has been an increase of 2,700 vpd and a decrease of 2,560 vpd. The changes in traffic flows are shown on Attachment 2.

 

The major changes appear to be related to an internal route change by residents now availing themselves of the Joondalup Drive link. The actual post closure traffic flow on Pinjar Road (north of Coogee Road) was recorded at 509 vpd. The traffic movements on Pinjar Road (north of Coogee Road) have reduced substantially more than the reduction on Pinjar Road (south of Malachite Fairway).  That extra reduction of 2,500 vpd can only be interpellated as less traffic related to Banksia Grove using Pinjar Road. 

 

It is reasonable to infer that residents in the northern sector of this part of Banksia Grove are using the Viridian Drive intersection with Joondalup Drive as it is closer and quicker than using the internal roads to access Joondalup Drive at a point 900m further south.

 

Similarly the residents in the southern sector of this part of Banksia Grove are using Viridian Drive-Tumbleweed Drive to Joondalup Drive instead of using Pinjar Road.

 

There has been undoubtedly an increase in the number of trucks moving through Banksia Grove. The separation of the traffic into the different Austroad Classes for the two intersections with Joondalup Drive is tabulated as follows.

Before Joondalup Drive was linked to Neaves Road and Wanneroo Road, Viridian Drive, at the north end, was acting as a cul de sac. This is shown by the low vehicle flow when only a few local residents were moving between the new and old parts of Banksia Grove. The new traffic flow may be nearer to the future steady traffic condition now that continuity of flow is available.

 

The speeds recorded of the heavy vehicles were typically between 30 – 50 km/h on Tumbleweed Drive and 20 – 40 km/h on Viridian Drive. The light vehicles were typically 10 km/h higher.

 

The percentages of heavy vehicles (i.e. Class 4 to 12) on these two roads are 6% on Tumbleweed Drive and 3% on Viridian Drive. These percentages are within a normal range of percentages that occur on through residential roads. For example in 2004: Backshall Place 5%, Belgrade Road 5%, Coldstream Circuit 3%, Fenchurch Street 2%, Garden Park Drive 8%, Green Park Road 6%, Hidden Valley Retreat 4%, Jefferson Drive 4%, Long Beach Promenade 3%, Quarkum Street 2%.

 

The necessity to continue to have vehicles of Class 6 or higher using residential streets will be discussed later in this report.

 

The potential to use Viridian Drive / Turquoise Loop / Malachite Fairway as an alternate to Tumbleweed Drive as a link between Joondalup Drive and Pinjar Road needs to be addressed.

 

1.2.            Special Rural.

The traffic flow on the circuitous route through the special rural area has increased. From the traffic classification data at the intersection of Pinjar Road / Tumbleweed Drive / Coogee Road the increase is estimated to be between 1,500 and 1,900 vpd. Vandalism to one traffic counter during the baseline data collection prohibits a more accurate assessment at this time.

 

The increase in traffic is significant compared to the previous traffic flows of Coogee Road 633 vpd dropping to 239 vpd at the east end and compared to Adams Drive at 44 vpd.

 

The composition of the traffic is similar to that in Banksia Grove with heavy vehicles now using roads they previously did not.

 

The speed of vehicles on the rural roads has been excessive for the alignment of the roads that includes two right angle turns at intersections and two tight bends. The speed limit has been reduced to 60 km/h and the Police Service has cooperated in randomly enforcing that limit.

 

The traffic comprises drivers ignoring the “deviation left” signs at the Pinjar Road / Tumbleweed Drive intersection and drivers from the next special rural residential cell to the east. Drivers who become familiar with these roads are travelling in both directions rather than use the easier and quicker route of Joondalup Drive and Tumbleweed Drive.

 

2.        Traffic Behaviour.

The majority of the irregular light vehicle through-traffic is by-passing the Banksia Grove residential area by using Tumbleweed Drive or Coogee Road. Some regular drivers are deliberately ignoring the detour signs and using urban residential streets. A few of these drivers are being verbally abusive to local residents.

 

On review of the traffic data, just over half of the 444 heavy vehicles that daily use Neaves Road and Pinjar Road (north) have modified their routes and are using Joondalup Drive and Wanneroo Road. These are mainly the heavy vehicles requiring permits to use specific roads or the vehicles too long to easily negotiate the bends along the residential roads.  There are still over 200 heavy vehicles daily using rural or urban roads instead of Joondalup Drive which has been built for easy and more fuel-efficient truck driving.

 

There are a number of drivers who are destroying road signs, driving over the earth bund at the closure of Pinjar Road and potentially causing crashes at the Joondalup Drive / Pinjar Road intersection by entering the road from where they are not expected by a normal driver.

 

In the first week after the closure, the behaviour of drivers reacting badly to the change included:

 

·                Ignoring clear signage, the most significant being 5 sets of signs in advance along Pinjar Road advising of the change and showing the detour. Many of those drivers contacted the Administration and were abusive because they did not see any signs.

·                Speeding to get to the closure and then speeding to find other ways to go.

·                Failing to obey the pre-existing traffic control signs, e.g. give way and stop signs.

·                Failing to be courteous to other road users.

·                Travelling on the wrong side of the road on bends.

·                Trucks that forced light vehicles off the road rather than slowing down.

 

Heavy vehicles have gained access along inappropriate road and those with trailers in particular dragging their trailers over kerbs and median islands and have also reportedly  been driven on the wrong side of the road to circumvent temporary barriers that have been located at intersections.

 

3.        Temporary Short Term Actions.

Temporary action was taken in the second week after the closure to install barriers to control speeds at intersections and to limit the ease with which long vehicles could enter the urban and rural residential areas. Those barriers were only partially successful, as they had to still allow for traffic with legitimate reasons to access the local areas.

 

Residents in Viridian Drive, Dempster Place, Adams Road and Coogee Road have requested consideration of trials of full road closures in the short term as one method of deterring heavy vehicles travelling along those roads.

 

4.        Long Term Actions.

One action will occur that will result in a major reduction of traffic through Banksia Grove near Pinjar Road and through the special rural area east of Pinjar Road.

 

4.1.            The realignment of Pinjar Road within a new subdivisional development will link the old Pinjar Road near Clarkson Avenue to Joondalup Drive at a dual lane roundabout.

 

The developer controls the timing of the construction of the realigned Pinjar Road. Council at the Ordinary Meeting held on 22 February 2005 in Resolution
MN01-02/05 determined to:

 

“1.    Seek an urgent meeting with Peet and Co to discuss the early construction of Pinjar Road deviation between Clarkson Avenue and Joondalup Drive and reports the outcome of this meeting to Council.

                    2.     If unsuccessful in its negotiations with Peet and Co to complete the early construction of Pinjar Road deviation between Clarkson Avenue and Joondalup Drive, list for consideration in the 2005/06 budget an amount of $680,000 to prefund the construction of this deviation.”

 

Three actions will occur that will result in Joondalup Drive and Wanneroo Road being the more attractive route than Pinjar Road on the existing or new realignment. Particularly as the residential development increases along Pinjar Road.

 

4.2.            The Wanneroo Road / Joondalup Drive traffic signalised intersection being upgraded. Main Roads WA was allocated funds at the end of 2004 for this work. The upgrade has been designed and a contractor is expected to be appointed in June 2005 with work commencing in July 2005. The upgrade should be completed by December 2005.

 

4.3.            The section of Wanneroo Road south of Joondalup Drive being constructed to a dual carriageway, four lane standard. This work has yet to appear on the Main Roads WA four year funded program. A few sections may be contributed by subdivisional developments. The State Government will need to fund most of the 2.5 km of new dual carriageway required.

 

4.4.            Joondalup Drive between Wanneroo Road and Neaves Road being constructed to dual carriageway, four lane standard. The City will fund this work after the traffic flows have increased as subdivision increases. Traffic numbers would need to be higher than 10,000 vpd and closer to 15,000 vpd before the additional lanes would be required. Funding for the dualling of major distributor roads is usually sort through State grants due to the magnitude of the costs involved.

 

5.        Medium Term Actions

5.1.  Pinjar Road

The most common request from residents has been to reopen Pinjar Road south of Neaves Road. This has been for two reasons. Some want what they perceive to be a short route made available again, while others want to get the new traffic off their roads. As a balance, there are a few residents who want the closure to stay as it has quietened the traffic flow along the whole length of Pinjar Road between Wanneroo Road and Neaves Road.

 

A meeting of the residents in the Special Rural area on Neaves Road at the eastern boundary of the City (Via Vista Drive / Meadowlands Drive area) strongly requested that Pinjar Road be reopened. The route was used to access the Wanneroo schools and shops.

 

The results that could be expected from reopening the intersection would be a reduction of most vehicles in the special rural area and a reduction of most heavy vehicles from the urban residential area. The light vehicle flows on Viridian Drive and Tumbleweed Drive near the Joondalup Drive intersections are not expected to reduce to their previous levels. The safety at the reopened intersection will be less, as it will be a four-way intersection and the transition radius for the left turn from Neaves Road into Pinjar Road is very close to the property fence line with welded steel bar fencing. Advice in this regard has already been presented to Council – Report TS07–12/04 refers.

 

Given that land from the CALM controlled reserve on the northeast corner of the Pinjar
Road / Neaves Road intersection cannot readily be obtained, residents have enquired why other treatments have not been used at the intersection. The potential to construct a roundabout in the wide Joondalup Drive Road reserve to the west of Pinjar Road has also been considered. In review it is advised that a roundabout at this location will not service the intersection, as the four roads cannot be deviated sufficiently to allow separation around the roundabout. As a consequence traffic will not be able to make all turns. The tightest movement would be the left turn from Neaves Road to Pinjar Road (south) and this would not be possible. Substantial land acquisition would be required to permit a usable roundabout to be constructed.

 

To construct a four-way intersection, for which Main Roads WA would need to agree to have traffic signals installed, will require widening the southern leg of Pinjar Road on the western side. Near the intersection this will intrude over a Water Corporation Water Reserve and obtaining clearances will take some time presuming the water main is trafficable in that location.


The estimated expenditure of $280,000 for the traffic signal option could not be justified as the usage of this intersection becomes obsolete upon the realignment of Pinjar Road from immediately north of Yandella Promenade to the new roundabout that has always been constructed on Joondalup Drive.

 

Once constructed the realignment of Pinjar Road will achieve all the benefits purported to occur if the closure could be safely reversed.

 

In summary it is Administration’s considered opinion that the section of Pinjar Road (south) remain closed to the intersection of Neaves Road / Joondalup Drive / Pinjar Road (north).

 

5.2.  Viridian Drive

Viridian Drive was planned to be a significant transport link in this part of Banksia Grove. It is rated as a Local Distributor Road in the City’s adopted Functional Road Hierarchy. It has been constructed with a wide intersection onto Joondalup Drive and has a dedicated left turn slip lane for traffic from the east wishing to turn left into Banksia Grove residential area.

 

After the Pinjar Road closure heavy vehicle traffic utilising Joondalup Drive / Viridian Drive increased from 17 to 91 vpd. To move between Viridian Drive and Pinjar Drive these vehicles are using narrower residential streets not intended for the use as a heavy vehicle route.

 

Action needs to be taken to prevent heavy vehicles traffic bypassing the Tumbleweed Drive link between Pinjar Road and Joondalup Drive and using the residential streets via Viridian Drive.

 

Temporary action to date has included closing the left slip lane and protecting the islands against heavy vehicles driving across them. This action has not prevented all use by these vehicles as they are using the wide roads and wide intersection to turn around barriers or use the incorrect side of the road.

 

The need for the dedicated left turn lane is not apparent in the structure plan for Banksia Grove.  The control of the left turn can be accommodated by extending the kerb along Joondalup Drive to remove the left turn lane and the area behind the kerb be covered with sand and mulch.

 

The need for any left turn movement should be put to the residents within Banksia Grove and the special rural areas to the east. Physically the islands at the intersection can be modified as necessary to allow a left turn as at a simple intersection or the left turn could be blocked completely. Right turns from Joondalup Drive could still be accommodated. Left and right turns out should remain. The present residents in the district should influence the decision on the number of turning movements at this intersection. If a partial closure of the intersection is supported by the residents then a formal closure procedure is required in accordance with the Local Government Act 1995 (LGA) Section 3.50 as amended.

 

Heavy vehicle access can be legally limited by using the LGA S3.50 (2) to “limit the closure to vehicles of any class” and “may contain exceptions”. The area of Banksia Grove between Pinjar Road, Joondalup Drive and Tumbleweed Drive, but excluding those three roads, could be closed to vehicles of Austroads Classes 6 to 12 with a Gross Combined Mass of 25 tonne except on business in this local area. This defines heavy vehicles with or without trailers above what is usually known as a 14 tonne truck.

The area could be signed to indicate the exclusion and breaches which can be prosecuted in the manner of any breach of the LGA.  It is desirable to reinforce the exclusion with on road treatments that physically reduce the widths of lanes and restrict the ability for heavy vehicles to manoeuvre. The location of the treatment needs to be between 30m to 70m from the Joondalup Drive intersection.

 

In summary it is Administration’s considered opinion that heavy vehicles should be limited in opportunity to turn left into Viridian Drive.  This can be achieved by:

 

·                Physically closing part or all of the ability to turn left.

·                Legally restricting the class of trucks allowed on the roads.

·                Backing up either or both of the above actions with physical restrictions in Viridian Drive.

·                Installing Local Traffic Only (LTO) signage.

 

5.3.  Tumbleweed Drive

Tumbleweed Drive was planned to be a Local Distributor Road and to be an entry statement road in this part of Banksia Grove. It has no direct property access, has a divided carriageway for the majority of its length and has a limited number of intersections. It was not designed to be a major route for long vehicles as attested by the width of lanes, radii at roundabouts and multiple pedestrian crossing places.

 

Due to the timing of the Pinjar Road closure, the traffic that needed to use Pinjar Road to link to Neaves Road was shown a detour via Tumbleweed Drive to Joondalup Drive that directly led to Neaves Road. The reverse trip was not signed as a detour as the Joondalup Drive to Wanneroo Road is the preferred route for all traffic.

 

Main Roads WA has amended the routes that had General Endorsement for permit vehicles’ routes once Joondalup Drive was opened to Neaves Road.  Resolution TS02–10/04 that was adopted at the Council’s Ordinary Meeting held on 12 October 2004 included the removal of Pinjar Road from having the Council’s approval for use as a permitted heavy vehicle route.  There is no impediment to applying the restriction on the size of vehicles that can use Tumbleweed Drive.

 

In summary it is Administration’s considered opinion that limits should be placed on the class of heavy vehicle able to use Tumbleweed Drive.

 

5.4.  Dempster Place/Adams Road/Coogee Road

The Dempster Place to Adams Road to Coogee Road route between Neaves Road and Pinjar Road is nearly 3 km of rural road and has had very low traffic flows through this area where horses are ridden. Since November 2004 when a contactor closed Neaves Road at Pinjar Road for road reconstruction and diverted all traffic including special permit vehicles along this rural route, traffic has used this as an alternate to the Neaves Road/Pinjar Road and later the Neaves Road/Joondalup Drive routes.

 

Heavy vehicle traffic is reported by residents to occur at all hours of the day and night.

 

The numeric increase in traffic flow after the Pinjar Road closure has been the greatest on this rural route in both the numbers of light and heavy vehicles.

At a meeting of the residents, their proposals included:

 

·                Additional signage at the intersection of Neaves Road and Dempster Place to inform drivers of the direction to the major roads.

·                Potential full road closures at one or two locations along the route to divide the route into three parts

·                Construction of slow points.

·                Prohibiting large trucks.

·                Considering lowering the speed limit to 50 km/h.

·                Install Local Traffic Only (LTO) signs.

 

The residents’ strong desire at the end of the meeting was for a full road closure in either Adams Road or Coogee Road to stop through traffic.

 

The speed of the vehicles and position they occupy on the road has also concerned the residents particularly on a sharp bend in Adams Road. Consideration to pedestrians and equestrians is not occurring. There are no footpaths or solid verges on these roads therefore the road shoulder has to be used by people who are not using cars. The increase in number and type of vehicles and the behaviour of drivers has increased the risk of injury to road users in this area.

 

The rural roads are used as a through route with relevance to the residents by some vehicles such as the school bus. The full closure option has been discussed with the bus driver and it is a possibility, though it is not enthusiastically supported, as it would add 15 minutes travel time onto everyone collected before that point along the bus route.

 

The option exists of integrating traffic slow points with protected horse crossing facilities at two locations that align with bridal paths around the area. These would be permanent constructions designed for traffic speeds of less than 25 km/h.

 

There are also two active businesses within the area and their needs can be met with access along Dempster Road. If  LTO signs are installed the names of the two businesses could be added on a sign under the LTO sign.

 

To limit the potential for through traffic it is proposed that the intersection of Dempster Place and Adams Road be treated as a cul-de-sac turning area with a roundabout style central island. Access to the existing ‘No Through Road’ section of Adams Road to the north of this intersection can remain as a driveway type road for the four properties using it.  The southern leg of Adams Drive was suggested at the residents’ meeting as a location for a full closure. However, it is considered that a traffic control point be constructed 30m south of the intersection by narrowing the road to a single lane width and installing a give-way sign to clearly indicate the priority of traffic flow. These control points can be used in pairs or triples to enforce lower speeds near them and to limit the length of vehicles that can negotiate through them.

 

A traffic control point can be considered either side of the sharp bend in Adams Road and also in Coogee Road to the west of the intersection with Adams Road. This will assist in speed control at places of potential hazard.

 

The proposed location of the traffic control point at approximately 30m south of the Dempster Place / Adams Road intersection, is one reasonable location for a road closure where turning areas could be constructed. The other location on Adams Road that would be beneficial to have the closure is at the sharp bend adjacent to Lots 26 and 27.

 

Another location for road closure is at the intersection of Pinelake Trail / Lee-Steere Drive  / Coogee Road. A cul-de-sac of Coogee Road was suggested to the west of Lee-Steere Drive. This diverts traffic from Pinelake Trail and the section of Coogee Road from Adams Road along Lee-Steere Drive. However, as an option a diagonal closure at the intersection could be considered so that Pinelake Trail and the section of Coogee Road towards Pinjar Road links directly to Pinjar Road / Tumbleweed Drive intersection and the section of Coogee Road from Adams Drive links along Lee-Steere Drive to Pinjar Road. This may be a more equitably split of the traffic flows. Lee-Steere Drive near Pinjar Road would then require a traffic control treatment.

 

The diagonal closure would require processing in accordance with the Local Government Act 1995 Section 3.50.

 

The traffic control point treatments would be constructed of concrete kerbing with steel bollards set at a safe distance behind the kerb and the treatments made more visible by reflective signage and mounds of soil that could later be landscaped. Ideally the treatments should be illuminated during the night. However, there are no streetlights in the rural area. The treatments will need large, clear advance warning signs at drivers’ eye level as well as at normal elevated level to alert drivers.

 

There is no impediment to applying the restriction on the size of vehicles that can use Dempster Place, Adams Road, Coogee Road and Lee-Steere Drive.

 

In summary there are two ways to control the number and behaviour of traffic:

 

Method 1 – Restrictive Treatments:

 

·                Installing directional signage at the Dempster Place/ Neaves Road intersection.

·                Installing Local Traffic Only signs with simple signs for the two local businesses.

·                Construct horse-crossing refuges that combine in function as speed control treatments at two locations.

·                Limits being placed on the class of truck able to use Dempster Place, Adams Road, Coogee Road and Lee-Steere Drive.

·                Provision of a diagonal road closure at the intersection of Coogee Road, Lee-Steere Drive and Pinelake Trail.

·                Construction of a simple roundabout at the intersection of Dempster Place and Adams Road.

·                A series of five traffic control treatments to limit speed and limit the length of vehicles.

 

Method 2 – Full Closure:

 

·                Installing directional signage at the Dempster Place/ Neaves Road intersection.

·                Installing No Through Road signs with simple signs for the two local businesses.

·                Full closure of Adams Road to through traffic.

 

5.5.  Intersection of Pinjar Road / Coogee Road / Tumbleweed Drive

Administration has already been requested by Council (Report TS07–12/04 refers) to prepare a concept design for a roundabout at this intersection. That is an appropriate long-term treatment to retain accessibility between the special rural areas and Joondalup Drive via Tumbleweed Drive rather than having any road closures at the intersection that would result in unnecessary traffic having to move though the urban residential areas.

 

6.        Public Communications.

 

For future works relating to traffic management that could divert traffic onto roads not intended to be distributor roads, the following process is recommended to be the normal public communications procedure:

 

·                Communicate by letter the intent for changes to traffic flows to:

-               All property owners and occupiers with direct access to the road to be treated who also are within 200m of the treatment.

-               All property owners and occupiers within 400m who may reasonably be assumed to drive past the location to be treated.

-               All property owners and occupiers along local access roads that may be reasonably assumed to have increases in traffic due to the treatment.

·                Arrange an informal information exchange session.

·                Formalise process with reports to the Council.

·                Communicate to the above listed people the resolutions from Council.

·                Comply with any appropriate legislative notice required.

·                Install signage at the location of the treatment indicating any proposed works.

·                Finalise legal processes, reports to the Council and arrange when treatments might be constructed.

·                Inform all property owners and occupiers of the final decision.

 

7.        Costs.

Before the closure was actioned, it was presumed that all costs would be borne by the developer as part of the subdivision. That has proven to be an incorrect presumption costs have included:

 

·                Administration hours on the legal process.                               $     250

·                Advertising.                                                                               $     100

·                Advance advisory signage (previously approved by Council)  $  9,835

·                Relocation of remote signage related to the closure                 $  1,500

·                Detour and associated directional signs.                                   $  4,000

·                Temporary control of traffic on other roads.                             $  2,830

·                Hire of barriers.                                                                         $  7,800

·                Traffic data collection.                                                              $16,000

·                Administrative hours on complaints, meetings, solutions.        $25,600

$67,915


Consultation

Post closure consultation has been extensive. There has been one meeting of 60 residents, one meeting of 39 residents and over 280 telephone conversations to date.

 

Refer to Item 5 of the Details Section of this report for comments and outcomes arising from consultation.

Comment

The individual elements of traffic and social issues that have arisen after the closure of Pinjar Road south of the Neaves Road intersection have been identified and discussed in the Details Section of this report.

 

The cost of all the traffic control point treatments identified will depend upon detailed survey and design. However, the cost of works is expected to be within the range $200,000 to $250,000, exclusive of street lighting for treatments proposed in the rural area.

 

All future actions must be considered in a holistic manner and must positively contribute towards the complete development of this part of the City.

 

All individual traffic control point treatment options need to be evaluated for their merit after the Pinjar Road realignment is constructed. If there are no longer-term benefits, then the issue needs to be readdressed to consider a simpler option or no treatment at all.

 

The following matters need to be considered:

 

·                The legal limiting of the classes of vehicles allowed to unconditionally be driven along nominated roads has merit in these areas and potentially may be applied to other areas of the City. The enforcement is by fines of $5,000 for each breach. The Council must identify specific Administration personnel to be authorised to act upon any breaches. The Local Government Act Sections 9.10 to 9.14 applies.

 

The City’s Ranger Services personnel are trained in issues pertaining to enforcement of laws at a local level.  The occasional need to monitor and prosecute a transgression by a truck driver would be more effectively handled by personnel involved daily in actions of a similar nature.

 

·                Viridian Drive near Joondalup Drive plus sections of Turquoise Loop and Malachite Fairway will benefit from a traffic treatment near the Joondalup intersection to permanently restrict the ability for heavy vehicle entry. The area can be serviced from other streets in the infrequent instances of legitimate need for semitrailer access. A full closure will inhibit the long-term accessibility of the area by the local residents. The redesign of the intersection for a simpler, smaller left turn from the east would be beneficial to calm speeds in the area. A full closure of the left-in facility would be better. The alternate access via Tumbleweed Drive would have to be used by local traffic.

 


·                Dempster Place / Adams Drive / Coogee Road will require short and medium term traffic control point treatment. They will not require long-term treatment to reduce the traffic numbers. The cost therefore requires consideration of a simple treatment option.  The proposal to fully close the road should be advertised for implementation in accordance with the Local Government Act 1995 Sections 1.7 and 3.50. In the interim of the legal process, the full closure could be implemented as a trial with temporary barriers and signage. It is Administration’s considered opinion the greatest benefit from the full closure will be obtained if it is located so as to eliminate the sharp bend in Adams Road.

 

·                Tumbleweed Drive will not require additional physical treatment.

 

·                Additional signage at Dempster Place / Neaves Road, Viridian Drive / Joondalup Drive and Tumbleweed Drive / Joondalup Drive to indicate the direction of the main traffic route and the LTO areas will have long-term benefits.

 

The five matters above are expected to cost between $50,000 to $100,000 to implement.

 

The realignment of Pinjar Road from immediately north of Yandella Promenade through to the new roundabout that has been constructed on Joondalup Drive will resolve most issues. The five matters above have merit to be implemented in addition to the realignment of Pinjar Road.

Statutory Compliance

The processes relating to limiting vehicle classes and to implementing partial or whole road closures will comply with the Local Government Act 1995 Section 1.7 and 3.50 as amended.

 

Any person who obstructs anything a local government is trying to do under the Local Government Act commits an offence and can be fined in accordance with the Local Government Act 1995 Sections 9.10 to 9.14.

Strategic Implications

The issues of the closure of Pinjar Road and associated traffic treatments on subsequently affected roads are consistent with the City of Wanneroo’s Strategic Plan 2002-2005 goals and strategies:

 

            “Healthy Communities

            2.2       Provide a cohesive system of integrated land use planning.

            2.3       Support and encourage the delivery of a safe and effective transport network.

2.4       Support safe and secure communities

2.7       Provide community focused services and lifestyle opportunities.”

Policy Implications

Financial Implications

The closure of Pinjar Road immediately south of its intersection with Neaves Road has cost $26,000 in signage, barrier hire and labour that was not included in the budget. A budget amendment in report PD14-11/04 was adopted for the initial signage costs. The remaining costs are at present being covered by the 2004/2005 Engineering Maintenance Budget as a specific project has not yet been created with an approved budget.

 

There has been $41,600 of expenses incurred through Administration resources that have been utilised on this project.

 

Further works, as outlined in the Comments Section of this report, on local traffic control point treatments (inclusive of associated signage) would cost a minimum of $50,000 to $100,000 and will need to be listed for Council consideration in the Draft 2005/2006 Capital Works Budget – Traffic Management.

 

In the interim a sum of $30,000 will be required to cover expected costs associated with the continued control of traffic arising out of the closure of Pinjar Road south of Neaves Road.

 

Funds were approved in the 2004/05 Traffic Management Capital Works Program for the construction of an extended right turn pocket in Beach Road at its intersection with Mirrabooka Avenue.  These works were designed to complement the Black Spot Project at this intersection which comprised the removal of the right turn filters from the traffic control signals.  Main Roads WA advised after the adoption of the 2004/05 Budget that the cost of the civil works to the right turn pocket extension could be charged to the Black Spot Project Number.  These works have been finalised and costs recouped from Main Roads WA in accordance with the Black Spot Programme guidelines.  As a result of this funding change, an amount of $30,220 is therefore available from Project No. 845275 Beach Road/Mirrabooka Avenue intersection for reallocation to traffic management works in streets affected by the Pinjar Road closure.

Background

Council’s policy (Policy No. DS6) allows walls up to 3m in height to be approved for construction by the City’s Engineer (in this case the Director of Technical Services).  Consequently, where retaining walls exceed 3m in height Council’s approval is required.

Detail

Alan McLean Engineering Pty Ltd, on behalf of the landowners Cvitan and Simmonds, has designed retaining walls exceeding 3m in height in their development known as Lots 51 and 52 Landsdale Road, Darch.  Refer to Attachment 1 for the location plan.  Justification for approval of the retaining walls over 3m in height up to a maximum of 4.53m in this instance is summarised as follows:

 

“The sites are quite steep and are constrained by the existing level of Landsdale Road to the south and existing developments to the north and west which have combined to elevate some of the walls in Lots 51 and 52 over the 3m height restriction to ensure a level building platform and provide essential services to the site.”

 

Approval to construct retaining walls exceeding 3m in height is now requested for Lots 51 and 52, Landsdale Road, Darch.

Comment

Both Lots 51 and 52 have been designed in accordance with Council’s East Wanneroo Local Structure Planning Cell 6 and have falls in excess of 20m over their 270m length.

 

Road levels within the lots have been designed to tie into existing roads on the western boundary of Lot 51 and existing ground levels on the undeveloped lot on the eastern boundary of Lot 52.

 

The lot levels have been designed to comply with Council standards relating to residential verge grades and rises.

 

As a consequence of the site constraints, several sections of retaining wall up to a maximum height of 4.53m are required.  The sections of retaining wall greater than 3m in height are identified in Attachment 2.

 

The benefits for the proposed design mean that all lots will have a level platform on which to build.  A building licence is necessary for all retaining walls before construction can commence.

 

It is therefore recommended that the proposed retaining wall ranging up to 4.53m in height be approved.

Statutory Compliance

Strategic Implications

The construction of the retaining walls over 3m in height is consistent with the City of Wanneroo Strategic Plan (2002/2005) goals and strategies:

 

            “Environmental Sustainability

            1.1       Conserve and enhance environmental assets

 

            Healthy Communities

            2.2       Provide a cohesive system of integrated land use planning”.

Policy Implications

Application for approval to construct retaining walls exceeding 3m in height has been processed in accordance with Council’s policy (Policy No. D56).

Issue

To consider a budget variation for fitting a hydraulic platform to crew cab truck – Plant Number 95775.

Background

The Engineering Maintenance Crew uses this crew cab truck for daily maintenance operations and the fitting of a hydraulic platform for loading/unloading equipment from the truck was not part of the original replacement budget item for this truck.  However, this item is considered necessary and additional funding is required for this platform to be fitted to this truck.

Detail

Plant Number 95775 is used by the Engineering Maintenance crew which is responsible for slashing, cleaning and general repair of the City’s drainage sumps.  As part of their daily activities, these employees are required to load/unload plant and waste onto the vehicle tray. Some plant and waste items that are removed from the sump such as car parts, vegetation and building materials, are of a substantial weight, which could result in personal injury to the employees.

 

A hydraulic lifting platform is therefore considered to be an essential component of the replacement crew cab truck fit out.  The recommendation to include a hydraulic platform on this vehicle is supported for the following reasons:

 

·                Its use, rather than manual loading of these weighty items, will lead to a greater level of safety for this crew, in relation to lifting and fatigue injuries

·                The availability of the lifting platform will improve the flexibility of this vehicle, avoiding the current need for a dedicated trailer to be attached.

·                Similarly the availability of a hoist will improve this crew’s effectiveness, enabling them to safely load and unload other plant, signs, materials, drainage units, etc.

 

The successful tenderer for the supply of the new truck, Major Motors, has submitted an additional price variation of $5,148 to the tender should the City choose to proceed with this amended supply purchase.

 


The Fleet Management Steering Committee at a meeting on 4 February 2005 considered this issue and accepted the Manager Operations’ recommendation for fitting a hydraulic platform to truck plant number 95775.  However, no additional funds are available in the Plant Replacement Reserve for this expenditure.

Consultation

Nil

Comment

The hydraulic platform requirement has been evaluated and the Fleet Management Steering Committee has agreed that this item is necessary for avoiding any injury to the employees undertaking operational duties.

Statutory Compliance

Strategic Implications

The fitting of a hydraulic platform to crew cab truck is consistent with the City of Wanneroo Strategic Plan (2002-2005) goals and strategies:

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

The Plant Replacement Reserve does not have the required funding ($5,148) for the fitting of the required hydraulic platform to truck plant number 95775.  This funding requirement can be met from the unexpended funds allocated in the Engineering Maintenance Overheads (71501) operational budget for employing an engineering student on vocational employment within Engineering Operations.  Efforts were made to secure the services of a suitable engineering student to gain work experience within Engineering Operations during summer semester vacation over November/December 2004.  However, Administration was unable to attract a suitable engineering student and since the university students resume the next semester from early March 2005, it will not be possible to employ any engineering student during this financial year. The funds, totalling $7,000, therefore remain unexpended and are available for reallocation for other purposes.  The following budget variation is therefore proposed:

Issue

To consider the feasibility of introducing a Local Law and/or other measures to control Pest Plants within the City of Wanneroo.

Background

At its meeting on 29 June 2004 Council requested Administration to investigate the feasibility of introducing a Local Law relating to the control of Pest Plants in the City of Wanneroo and report to the Policy and Local Law Committee (Item No MN03-06/04 refers). It was considered that there is a need for the City to effectively control environmental weeds in natural areas, along with the need for local residents to control plants on their own properties.  It was envisaged that a Local Law on Pest Plants would assist the City with managing its environmental weed problems.

 

In November 2002 Council adopted the City’s current Weed Management Policy.  The objective of this policy is to ensure that the City of Wanneroo meets its environmental, legal and community obligations for weed management on land that it administers, in a manner that is environmentally, socially and economically sustainable.  As such, this policy is principally focussed on weed control within Council administered land and the weed control programme that has been introduced in response to this policy principally targets Declared Plants such as Caltrop, Paterson’s Curse and Skeleton Weed on rural verges and public accessways.  The City has limited resources to effectively manage environmental weeds in natural areas, with the majority of weed control being carried out in ten high priority conservation reserves (targeting grass weeds such as Wild Oats and Perennial Veldt Grass), Yellagonga Regional Park and four Bush Links project sites.  Minimal weed control efforts are currently being made in other natural areas due to insufficient resources.

Detail

The Agriculture and Related Resources Protection Act 1976 enables a local government authority (LGA) to declare a plant a Pest Plant in a Local Law if, in the opinion of the local authority, it is likely to adversely affect the value of property or the health, comfort or convenience of the inhabitants of the district.  Once an LGA has gazetted a Local Law on Pest Plants, it has considerable power to enforce private landowners to control Pest Plants on their properties.  An LGA may, by written notice, direct an occupier or owner of private land within its district to destroy, eradicate or otherwise control the Pest Plant. The notice may specify the manner in which the Pest Plant will be controlled, the level of control and the period during which the control will be affected. 


An LGA can prescribe any plant a Pest Plant, which is not already a Declared Plant, under the direction of the Agriculture Protection Board.

 

Administration has considered the feasibility of introducing a Local Law on Pest Plants through consultation with officers from the Department of Agriculture Western Australia, officers from various LGAs in Western Australia and members of the City of Wanneroo Environmental Advisory Committee (EAC).

 

Officers from 13 LGAs in Western Australia were consulted by Administration and the results of this telephone survey are summarised in Table 1 below:

The survey identified that only four Councils (Shire of Denmark, Town of Kwinana, Shire of Serpentine-Jarrahdale and Shire of Wickepin) have Local Laws on Pest Plants.  Most Councils identified that they did not have Local Laws on Pest Plants due to insufficient resources being made available for enforcement.  Officers from some of the LGAs had advised that the possibility of introducing a Local Law on Pest Plants had been previously investigated but had been dismissed, with Weed Management Strategies being prepared instead. 

 

For those LGAs that had introduced Local Laws on Pest Plants, officers advised Administration that the laws were not being actively enforced and were proving to be much less effective than intended.  This was primarily due to insufficient resources being made available to control the Pest Plants on Councils’ own properties, and without this, enforcement on private properties seemed unrealistic.

 

Officers from various LGAs highlighted that the potential benefits for Council in introducing a Local Law on Pest Plants would relate to the City being able to:

 

·                Raise community awareness about the adverse qualities of certain species;

·                Introduce restrictions on the species that may be used in landscaping streetscapes and parks within new residential developments;

·                Use the law as a preventative measure by choosing species that are not yet widespread but are known to be a problem elsewhere;

·                Place conditions on the re-zoning of land (e.g. from Rural to Special Rural or Urban), where Pest Plants would be required to be eradicated prior to development; and

·                Enforce the control of Pest Plants on private property (as long as the City is able to demonstrate that these species are being controlled on City-managed land).

 

The potential implications for Council in introducing a Local Law on Pest Plants may include:

 

·                The difficulty in selecting the species to be included on the list due to differing perspectives;

·                An increase in the City’s Operational Budget to control Pest Plants;

·                Council being responsible for compensating private landowners for landscaping costs;

·                An increase in customer service complaints and Council’s involvement in neighbourhood disputes; and

·                The need to employ a full-time officer to enforce the law at an increased cost to Administration.

 

The City’s Ranger & Safety Services has provided a cost estimate of $54,380 per annum for the employment of an officer to enforce the Local Law on Pest Plants (includes salary, court costs, vehicle depreciation and operating costs).

Consultation

When investigating the feasibility of Council introducing a Local Law on Pest Plants, the City’s Bushcare Officer consulted the following Western Australian LGAs:

 

·                Perth Metropolitan Region: City of Belmont, City of Canning, City of Gosnells, Town of Kwinana, Shire of Mundaring, City of Nedlands, City of Swan

·                Non-metropolitan: City of Albany, Shire of Chittering, Shire of Denmark, City of Mandurah, Shire of Serpentine-Jarrahdale, Shire of Wickepin

 

The City’s Bushcare Officer also met with members of the EAC Working Group on 10 and 12 January 2005 to discuss the feasibility of Council introducing a Local Law on Pest Plants.  The EAC Working Group acknowledged the importance of controlling environmental weeds and promoted the merit of mitigation of Pest Plant risks through the preparation of a Weed Management Strategy, rather than introducing a Local Law on Pest Plants, to address the problem.  It was suggested that the possibility of introducing a Local Law on Pest Plants could be included as an action item in the Weed Management Strategy at some stage in the future when adequate resources are assigned to enforce a new Local Law on Pest Plant control.

 

In addition, Marketing Services included an article in the Winter 2004 (distributed in August) edition of What’s Happening Newsletter.  A copy of the article entitled “Planting for the Future” is attached (Attachment 1).  This was also supplemented by information placed on the City’s website providing details on native plants suited to soil types within the City of Wanneroo and not posing a threat as pest plants. 

Comment

Consultation with the Department of Agriculture, Western Australian LGAs and members of the EAC Working Group has highlighted that the introduction of a Local Law on Pest Plants is not an effective stand-alone measure for the control of environmental weeds.  It is recommended that the City prepare a Weed Management Strategy to identify priority weeds, map the locations for control of priority weeds, identify strategies for weed control and include a management action plan.  The Weed Management Strategy would enable Council to make informed decisions about the delivery of resources for the effective control of environmental weeds.  This is considered a more strategic approach as opposed to an enforcement procedure that only targets a few species.

 

The Weed Management Strategy could identify one or two species that may be scheduled as Pest Plants if a Local Law was to be introduced by Council in the future, when sufficient resources become available.

 

Once a Local Law is introduced, the City will be responsible for the effective control of the Pest Plants on City-managed land.  Budgeting for the effective control of weeds is essential.  The 2005/06 draft budget requirement for weed control in natural areas vested with the City is being prepared and a significant proportion of this amount will be used for the control of Pest Plants.  This draft budget provision will, however, fall well short of the full financial liabilities that will be associated with the compulsion generated by the Local Law to control all Pest Plants on land vested with the City, which will include all road reserves.  Budgeting for this full maintenance liability can only occur in an accurate manner after a Pest Plant Audit, a management regime that conventionally is only established after a Weed Management Strategy has been undertaken.

 

Financial implications for private landholders is also significant and some form of assistance strategy, based on the formation of strong partnerships between all stakeholders, also needs to be a feature of a Weed Management Strategy to work towards best management practices for weed control before a Pest Plant Local Law is introduced.

Issue

To review Policy 7.3.2 ‘Landscape Upgrades to Distributor Roads and Parks’ and to advise Council of recommendations for updating the Policy.

Background

The current Landscape Upgrades To Distributor Roads and Parks Policy was endorsed by Council at its meeting held 2 July 2002 (Report TS07-07/02 refers).  The Policy was due for review in July 2004.

Detail

The Landscape Upgrades to Distributor Roads and Parks Policy and associated implementation plan was developed as a tool for Administration to:

§    Determine priorities for landscape development under community and Council endorsed criteria

§    Address community requests with a rationale for these priorities

§    Assist with determining appropriate asset development, with particular regard to irrigation infrastructure

§    Address Council and Statutory initiatives and in particular the Ministry for Planning Infrastructure’s Liveable Neighbourhoods, Bush Forever, the City’s POS Planning Policy and Strategic Plan.

 

Along with the Policy, supporting documentation was also developed to assist Administration in reviewing developments against endorsed criteria.  The supporting documentation included:

§    Survey Forms for distributor road and park assessment.

§    Report entitled Policy and Implementation Plan for Upgrading Distributor Roads and Unirrigated Parks (Jan/April 2001) prepared by Hames Sharley, the appointed Consultant inclusive of a Parks Audit (Addendum 1) and Roads Audit (Addendum 2).

 

Since adoption of the Policy the following Capital Works projects have been implemented:

§     2001/2002-an amount of $200,000 was allocated for implementing the first stage of the passive park upgrade program, comprising works at Frangipani and Shamrock Parks.

§     2002/2003- an amount of $240,400 was allocated for upgrades of Shamrock Park (Stage 2), Ormiston Park (Stage 2) and Nannatee Park.

§     2004/2005- an amount of $302,000 was allocated for upgrades of Avila and Sandow Parks.

It is noted that no Capital Works projects were approved in the 2003/2004 budget.

 

If the City assumes a constant rate of redevelopment works to two parks per year, the Landscape Upgrades to Distributor Roads and Parks Implementation Plan will take sixty years to complete.  This program does not include road landscapes, any parks already under irrigation and requiring upgrades, or any of the undeveloped public open spaces that the City has received during this period.

 

Two options to speed up the program were previously presented to Council, they being:

1.       Adopt a policy for not irrigating small (under three hectares) high capital and maintenance cost parks until such time that all larger parks are developed.  It is noted that it was resolved to delete this recommendation from the Policy when first presented in draft form to Council at the 27 November 2001 meeting.

2.       Substantially increase the allocation of capital and maintenance funds for the redevelopment of all listed parks within a shorter time frame.

 

On review of the Policy it is advised that no changes are proposed (refer Attachment 1).

 

Consultation

 

During the development and implementation phases of the Landscape Upgrades to Distributor Roads and Parks Policy and implementation plan, full and targeted community consultation was facilitated through:

·                Ordinary Council meeting information, recommendation and resolution

·                Advertisement of the Draft Policy for comment

·                Return letter surveys and public library displays of concepts for comment

·                Acknowledging and responding to petitions lodged with Council

·                Representative liaison between Administration, Councillors, Environmental Advisory Committee (EAC), ratepayer groups and individuals

 

As part of the review of the policy, a consultation process will be implemented in accordance with the City’s Community Consultation and Participation Policy.

Comment

It is recommended by Administration that the Landscape Upgrades to Distributor Roads and Parks Policy remains current, with no changes proposed at this time.  However, several sections of the Report entitled “Policy and Implementation Plan for Upgrading Distributor Roads and Unirrigated Parks” on which the Policy is based needs to be updated for the document to remain current. These are summarised below:

 

§    Review of current and projected demographic trends

§    Review of current and projected population in specific areas of the City of Wanneroo

§    Review of recommended treatment options for development of parks and road reserves and updating costs associated with implementation of these treatments.

 

It is recommended that all new dry parks and distributor roads that have been handed over to the City since 2001 be assessed against the primary, secondary and overriding criteria using the field survey sheets attached to the policy in update of the documentation. This process includes the following actions:

§    Site inspection

§    Data sheet collection

§    Assessment against each of the primary, secondary and overriding criteria

§    Final ranking

§    Update of the Park and Road Audits by inclusion of data sheets for the new parks and roads

§    Update tables and lists of reserves and roads in the main report to include all new irrigated and dry parks.

 

In order to make the “Landscape Upgrades To Distributor Roads and Parks” implementation plan more achievable it is also suggested that passive parks scoring less than five not be considered for redevelopment. This proposal will be considered in more detail as part of the next review of this policy.

Statutory Compliance

All works as a result of the implementation of this Policy are to comply with the requirements of the Local Government Act 1995 and the relevant standards under the Building Codes Australia and Australian Standards.

Strategic Implications

The Policy for “Landscape Upgrades To Distributor Roads and Parks” is consistent with the following City of Wanneroo Strategic Plan (2002-2005) goals and strategies:

 

“1.       Environmental Sustainability

To value, protect and enhance our natural environment in harmony with the growth and progress of out City

1.1.      Conserve and enhance environmental assets.

 

2.         Healthy Communities

To foster an identity that promotes lifestyle choices and provision of quality services and infrastructure

2.6       Provide and management Infrastructure to meet the needs of our community”.

Policy Implications

This report recommends update of the supporting documentation to Policy.

Financial Implications

The financial implication relating to the implementation of the priority projects identified through application of this policy is subject to annual Capital Works Budget consideration by Council.

Issue

To consider a review of the “Public Guidance Signage In Road Reserves Policy” (Policy No: 7.3.10).

Background

The current Public Guidance Signage in Road Reserves Policy was implemented in May 2001, with the first review resulting in some minor amendments endorsed by the Policy and Local Laws Committee at its meeting on 9 September 2003.  This revised policy was adopted by Council at its meeting held on 23 September 2003.

Detail

The policy is due for review in July 2005, however current advice received from Main Roads WA (MRWA) indicates that public guidance signage proposed along Wanneroo Road requires MRWA approval in the first instance.  If approval is granted in accordance with MRWA policy and Australian Standard 1742.5-1997, then an application in writing (with supporting documented approval from MRWA) can then be assessed by the City.

 

In reviewing the Policy with regard to Wanneroo Road it is stated as follows:

 

1.    General Requirements for Public Guidance Signage

 

1.4       Public guidance signage to be located along Wanneroo Road requires Main Roads WA (MRWA) approval.  Applications will be assessed by the City in the first instance and if approved they will be forwarded to MRWA for consideration.  MRWA’s decision is final”.

 

On consideration of MRWA’s advice, Administration has concluded that an amendment needs to be made to Section 1.4 of the policy to reflect this advice.

 

The proposed change to wording of the policy is detailed below and is appropriately identified in the reviewed policy as per the report recommendation.

 

“1.4     Public guidance signage to be located along Wanneroo Road requires Main Roads WA (MRWA) approval in the first instance.  If approval is granted a written application (with supporting documented approval from MRWA) is then to be forwarded to the City for its consideration/approval.  It is noted that MRWA’s decision is final”.

 

No further amendments are proposed.

Comment

The proposed amendment to the “Public Guidance Signage In Road Reserves Policy” reflects MRWA requirements and clarifies requirements that need to be complied with by community groups and organisations seeking direction signage along Wanneroo Road.

Statutory Compliance

Nil

Strategic Implications

The review of the “Public Guidance Signage In Road Reserves Policy” is consistent with the following City of Wanneroo Strategic Plan (2002-2005) goals and strategies:

 

“Healthy Communities

To foster an identity that promotes lifestyle choices and provision of quality services and infrastructure.

 

2.1       Achieve an understanding of our community’s needs – present and future.

2.6       Provide and manage infrastructure to meet the needs of our community”.

Policy Implications

The purpose of this report is to recommend changes to the “Public Guidance Signage In Road Reserves Policy”.

 

Reviewing this policy supports Council’s objective of developing and modifying policies covering signage within the City.  This policy as amended remains compliant with the City of Wanneroo ‘draft Signs Local Planning Policy’ which was adopted by Council at its meeting on 23 November 2004 for the purpose of advertising (Report No: PD08-11/04 refers).

Consultation

Nil.

Comment

The report represents seven (7) months of operations for the City in 2004/05 or 58.3% of the year elapsed.  Comments on operating revenue and expenditure are provided below.

 

Operating Revenue

 

Operating Revenue to the end of January 2005 was $52.1 million, or 84.1% of Budget.  However, this included Rates and Domestic Refuse Charges for 2004/05 that was raised during August.

 

Rates Raised

 

The Budget for rates was $32.2 million, comprising current year rates of $31.46 million and interim rates of $1.1 million arising from land subdivision activity and the completion of buildings and/or renovations.  The Budget also allowed for a Discount for early payment of $350,000.

 

Current year rates raised to the end of January amounted to $32.4 million, which includes discount for early payment of $516,000.

 

Domestic Refuse Charges

 

Domestic Refuse Charges raised to‑date amount to $4.9 million, compared to the Budget of $4.8 million.

 

Other Operating Revenue

 

With the exception of Rates and Domestic Refuse Charges, other operating revenue raised to the end of January was $14.8 million or 59.2% of Budget, which is in line with Budget projections.

 

Non-operating Revenue

 

Non-operating revenue, comprising capital grants and contributions for the development of assets is 25.9% of Budget.  A major component is Developer Contributions of $30.1 million, which are brought to account during the course of the financial year.

 

Operating Expenditure

 

Operating expenditure incurred to 31 January 2005 represents approximately 44.9% of the budget, which is consistent with operating expenditure trends from previous years.  This is summarised as follows:-

 

·         Employee Costs                48.6%  (Savings due in part to delays in filling vacancies)

·         Materials and Contracts    39.2%  (Expected to be in line with Budget towards year end)

·         Utilities                             45.6% 

·         Depreciation                      53.4% 

·         Insurance                           76.4%  (Reflects the timing of payments for insurance.)

Issue

To consider a proposal to offer additional payment options for rates, infringements and general debtors using facilities offered by Bill Express Limited.

Background

A representative of Bill Express Limited approached the City late last year offering their bill payment service as an additional, convenient way in which City of Wanneroo ratepayers could pay rates.  The offer included the opportunity to pay infringements and general debtor invoices through the service.

 

A report was presented to the Council at its Ordinary Meeting on 21 September 2004 (Attachment 1 – CS04-09/04) outlining the BillEXPRESS™ service.  The report noted that the service offered by BillEXPRESS™ was very competitively priced, offered a further level of convenience to ratepayers and would yield cost savings to the City.  It was further noted that the City should not enter into a contract with Bill Express Limited without first calling tenders, unless the Western Australian Local Government Association’s (WALGA’s) negotiations resulted in Bill Express Limited entering into a Preferred Supplier contract with WALGA.

 

The Council resolved as follows:-

 

“That Council:-

 

1.      NOTES the submission from BillEXPRESS™ outlining their bill payment service;

2.      AGREES to consider expanding the bill payment options currently available to the ratepayers of the City of Wanneroo; and

3.      APPROVES, if necessary, the calling of tenders from bill payment service providers.”

Detail

WALGA has recently announced that following an extensive review and tender process they have entered into a Preferred Supplier contract with Bill Express Limited for bill payment services commencing January 2005.  This means that the City can enter into a contract with Bill Express Limited for bill payment services without calling tenders.

 


Transaction costs and merchant service fees offered under the new contract are significantly lower than those offered to the City of Wanneroo in September 2004 and are consequently, substantially more competitive than the rates currently being charged by Australia Post for their BillPay service.  The Bill Express Limited offer is fixed for the life of the Agreement (ie 31 July 2008).

 

The terms and conditions of the of the Bill Express Limited Agreement are to be kept confidential, so whilst not disclosed in this report, they may be viewed by elected members in the proposed Agreement available in the Elected Members Reading Room.

Consultation

Nil.

Comment

The City presently offers its ratepayers the flexibility to make payments by a variety of methods –

 

·               Australia Post BillPAYÔ - over the counter at any Post Office in Australia;

·               Australia Post BillPAYÔ - by telephone;

·               FastPayÔ - over the internet;

·               Commonwealth Bank BPayÔ - by telephone via the customer participating Bank;

·               By post to the City of Wanneroo; and

·               Over the counter at a City of Wanneroo Customer Service Centre.

 

The BillEXPRESS™ service offers the full range of payment methods currently provided by Australia Post.  The telephone payment (IVR) and Internet payment services can be transferred to BillEXPRESS™ without any inconvenience to ratepayers as the processes are identical whichever service provider is used.  To take advantage of the lower fees and charges offered by BillEXPRESS™ it is recommended that both services be transferred to BillEXPRESS™ with effect from 1 July 2005.

 

Over the counter (OTC) payments using BillEXPRESS™ offers the City’s customers the additional convenience of making payments to the City at any participating newsagent in Australia.  Ideally, it would be preferable to introduce the BillEXPRESS™ OTC option and retain the Australia Post BillPAYÔ OTC service as this would simply expand the payment opportunities for customers.  However, the Australia Post BillPAYÔ OTC service is comparatively expensive and on the basis of its current fee structure, its retention cannot be supported.  The Administration has therefore taken the liberty to advise Australia Post that a continuance of the existing OTC service will be dependant on a revised fee structure that is competitive with the BillEXPRESS™ OTC fee structure.

 

Australia Post are currently reviewing their fee structure for the City of Wanneroo and expect to present their revised fees to the City by the middle of March 2005.

Statutory Compliance

Section 3.57 of the Local Government Act 1995 provides that –

 

“(1)   A local government is required to invite tenders before it enters into a contract of a prescribed kind under which another person is to supply goods or services.

 (2)   Regulations may make provision about tenders.”

 

The Local Government (Functions & General) Regulations 1996 describes a prescribed kind of contract as one with a consideration of more than $50,000 but further provides that tenders do not have to be publicly invited if the supply of goods or services is to be obtained through the Council Purchasing Services of WALGA.

Strategic Implications

“Goal  4 – Corporate Management and Development – To ensure that services best  meet the needs of cutsomers.“

Policy Implications

Nil.

Financial Implications

WALGA advises that transaction costs and merchant service fees available under the new BillEXPRESS™ contract have been negotiated on the significant collective volumes of its members with the result that delivers the best value integrated Bill Payment service available to local government in Australia.  The savings to be achieved by the City of Wanneroo depend on transaction levels, but the take up of BillEXPRESS™ services are confidently expected to yield savings of at least $30,000 per annum.

Recommendation

That Council:-

1.             AGREES to enter into an agreement with Bill Express Limited for the provision of Bill Payment services, including Over the Counter (OTC) payments, Telephone (IVR) payments and Internet payments for a term expiring on 31 July 2008;

2.             AUTHORISES the discontinuance of the Australia Post telephone BillPAYÔ service and the FastPayÔ internet payment service upon the implementation of the services outlined in 1. above; and

3.             AUTHORISES the Mayor and the Chief Executive Officer to execute and affix the common seal of the City of Wanneroo to the Agreement between Bill Express Limited and the City of Wanneroo.

Jobs West is a funded organisation focused on achieving sustained community development through employment services and training, especially for disadvantaged and unemployed people.  It is currently utilising portion of the Hainsworth Leisure Centre (the Centre) under a lease agreement that expired on 4 January 2005 and is now on a month-to-month tenancy.

 

The existing agreement requires Jobs West to make every endeavour to provide training programmes to the residents of the City and those programmes are to be free of charge to participants unless extensive resources are required in running the programmes.

 

In a letter dated 22 December 2004 the Chief Executive Officer of Jobs West requested a renewal of the existing lease arrangement.

 

The City’s Community Services business unit has assessed the performance of Jobs West under its lease so far and is happy with the level of service provided to the community.  There has been limited feedback to the City on actual numbers of participants in programmes and the like, however, in the letter dated 22 December 2004 from the Chief Executive Officer of Jobs West, a mention was made that assistance has been given to some 200 people with a large proportion of those coming from Girrawheen, Balga and Koondoola.  Specific numbers on a suburb-by-suburb basis have not been supplied. 

 

Jobs West is, however, aware that the City is fully expecting quarterly activity reports under the proposed lease.  To that end, the Community Services business unit will be developing an appropriate pro forma quarterly activity report in conjunction with Jobs West.

Detail

The Centre is situated on Lot 1 Hainsworth Avenue, Girrawheen and is owned freehold by the City under Certificate of Title Volume 1521 Folio 550.

 


The proposed leased area comprises an area of 53 m² known as the computer room together with a right of access to those parts of the building designated as common areas (Attachment 1 refers).  This is a slight reduction in area from the previous lease, as the proposed lease area no longer includes an adjacent office.

 

By definition under the Tenancy Policy, Jobs West would be categorised as Government, due to the funding received, and in accordance with the policy the annual rental is to be negotiated.  The previous arrangement was entered into prior to Council adopting the new Tenancy Policy and was negotiated on a cost recovery basis (Rental of $812 plus an administration fee of $200 was applied).

 

The methodology for negotiating the proposed lease is consistent with that used in the Ngala lease over portion of the Jenolan Way Community Centre, Merriwa as approved by Council at its Ordinary Meeting on 14 December 2004.  The negotiated essential criteria for the proposed lease to Jobs West, subject to Council approval, are as follows:-

 

 

Lease Rental

$2,385 per annum (based on an area of 53m² @ $45 per square metre).

Lease Term

Two (2) years

Commencement Date

1 April 2005

Rates & Taxes*

Lessee responsibility (on a pro rata basis relating to the leased area).

Outgoings*

Lessee responsibility (on a pro rata basis relating to the leased area). Telephone billed direct.

Building Insurance*

Lessee responsibility (on a pro rata basis relating to the leased area).

Building Maintenance

Lessee to keep and maintain every part of the inside of the Premises including all ceiling panels, lighting and electrical installations, doors, windows, floor coverings and all other fixtures and fittings in good and substantial repair and condition.

Statutory Compliance

Lessee responsibility.

Asset Preservation Levy*

Included in rental calculation

Special Conditions

The following conditions will be included in the Schedule to the lease agreement:-

·           The Lessee agrees to make every endeavour to provide training programs to residents of the City of Wanneroo.

·           The Lessee covenants that all programmes facilitated by the Lessee shall be free of charge to participants, unless extensive resources are required in producing booklets and handouts.  Participants in information and technology training programmes may be charged minimal fees.

·           The Lessee shall provide to the Lessor quarterly activity reports, addressed to the Director Community Development, outlining the services and programmes provided and participation rates.

 


* As the proposed leased area represents only a small proportion of the total lettable area of the Centre (approximately 4.2%), it has been agreed with Jobs West that rather than sending several invoices each year for minimal amounts, that one amount would be estimated as the Lessee’s percentage of the overall operating expenses of the Centre and that amount would be paid in advance at the same time as the rent.

 

Estimated per annum costs for the Centre are:-

 

 

Centre

Percentage to Lessee (4.2%)

Water Rates

  $2,637.50

$110.78

Electricity

  $8,500.00

$357.00

Emergency Services Levy

  $1,572.90

 $66.06

Building Insurance

  $2,633.00

$110.58

Asset Preservation Fund

  $1,400.00

  $58.80

Cleaning (common area)

  $6,075.00

$255.15

Total:

$22,818.40

$958.37 (Say $960)

Consultation

Administration met with representatives from Jobs West on 8 February 2005 to discuss the proposed terms of the lease and a letter was forwarded the same day confirming those terms.  Subsequent telephone discussions have revealed an acceptance of all the terms and conditions including the rental to be paid.

Comment

The total amount payable by Jobs West for the first year of the term would therefore be $3,345 being the annual rental and the Lessee’s share of the Centre costs (this amount is to be increased for the second year of the term by CPI).  In addition to the $3,345 per annum, Jobs West will remain responsible for the maintenance and cleaning of the internal of the leased area.

Statutory Compliance

The lease would be considered an exempt disposition under Regulation 30(2)(b) of the Local

Government Act 1995, which states:-

“30(2)    A disposition of land is an exempt disposition if –

(b)        the land is disposed of to a body, whether incorporated or not -

(i)      the objects of which are a charitable, benevolent, religious, cultural, educational, recreational, sporting or other like nature; and

(ii)     the members of which are not entitled or permitted to receive any pecuniary profit from the body’s transactions”

Strategic Implications

The proposed lease is consistent with the City’s Strategic Plan as follows:

“2.6        Provide and manage infrastructure to meet the needs of our community”

Policy Implications

Lease negotiations have been conducted in accordance with the City’s Tenancy Policy 5.2.1.

Financial Implications

As previously mentioned the lease is currently in holdover, on a monthly basis.  The same terms and conditions as the expired lease apply and rental and building insurance are being charged to the Lessee at $93.67 per month ($1,124.04 per annum).  The proposed lease would result in an annual income to the City of $3,345.

Issue

To consider the leasing of portion of the Gumblossom Community Centre, Quinns Rocks to Ocean Keys Community Church Inc for a period of two (2) years commencing 1 April 2005.

Background

The Ocean Keys Community Church Inc (the Church) is an initiative of the Lutheran Church of Australia to have a presence in the northern suburbs. They have a strong community emphasis particularly in working with youth and running parenting and relationship programmes. 

 

It is understood that ultimately, this group proposes to establish a permanent facility in the district, however in the interim, they have been situated within the Ocean Keys Shopping Centre in Clarkson.  Recent redevelopments of the centre have created a need for the Church to find alternative premises.

Detail

The City’s Administration has identified office space within the Gumblossom Community Centre, more particularly within the Gumblossom Hall, that can be made available to the Church as an interim measure.  It is proposed that the office space (refer Attachment 1) be made available to the Church under a two (2) year lease.

 

Gumblossom Hall, a part of the Gumblossom Community Facility is situated on Crown Reserve 28376 which is vested in the City for the designated purpose of “Recreation” with the power to lease for a term not exceeding twenty one (21) years subject to the approval in writing of the Minister for Lands being first obtained.

 

As part of the service to the community the Church proposes to utilise the office space as a resource centre providing information materials on pathways to dealing with issues and written materials on relationship matters.  Much of what is provided is at no cost to the community however there are some related materials and gift lines available for sale.  It is considered that such sales are incidental to the use of the office space. 

 

By definition under the Tenancy Policy the Church would be categorised as Non Commercial, but also falls into the variations area of the Policy as a small tenancy within a community facility. The essential criteria for the proposed lease, subject to Council approval, are therefore as follows:-

 


 

Lease/Licence Fee

$1.00 per annum.

Lease Term

Two (2) years.

Commencement date

1 April 2005.

Outgoings*

Lessee responsibility (on a pro rata basis relating to the leased area).

Maintenance

The Lessee shall keep and maintain every part of the interior of the Premises including all ceiling panels, lighting and electrical installations, doors, windows, floor coverings and all other fixtures and fittings in good and substantial repair and condition.

Building Insurance*

Lessee responsibility (on a pro rata basis relating to the leased area).

Asset Preservation Fund*

Using scale on a pro rata basis relating to the leased area.

Special Conditions

The following conditions will be included in the Schedule to the lease agreement:-

·         The use of the premises shall be for the stated purpose of ‘Office’ and the sale of items is to be incidental to the use and not the primary use of that space.

·         The Lessee shall be granted a right of access to the common areas of the building and no exclusive use in relation to the use of those areas is conveyed.

·         Either party shall have the right to terminate the lease in the second year of the term by giving not less than three (3) months notice in writing.

 

* As the proposed leased area represents an extremely small proportion of the total lettable area of the Gumblossom Hall and Community Centre combined it has been agreed with the Church that it make a contribution towards the operating costs of the facility of $300 per annum.

Consultation

Negotiations have been finalised with the Church’s representative, Pastor Michael Parker (currently employed by the City as a Youth Development Officer), who confirms its acceptance of the proposed terms of the lease.

Comment

The requirement of the Church for office space at Gumblossom Hall is relatively short term with plans currently in progress to develop its own facility in the Somerly Estate in Clarkson.  In view of this, the short -term use of this facility is supported.

Statutory Compliance

The lease would be considered an exempt disposition under Regulation 30(2)(b) of the Local Government Act 1995, which states:

 

         “30(2)    A disposition of land is an exempt disposition if –

                        (b)        the land is disposed of to a body, whether incorporated or not –

(i)         the objects of which are a charitable, benevolent, religious, cultural, educational, recreational, sporting or other like nature; and

(ii)        the members of which are not entitled or permitted to receive any pecuniary profit from the body’s transactions”

Strategic Implications

The proposed lease is consistent with the City’s Strategic Plan as follows:

 

            “2.6     Provide and manage infrastructure to meet the needs of our community”

Policy Implications

Lease negotiations have been conducted in accordance with the City’s Tenancy Policy 5.2.1.

Financial Implications

The proposed lease, whilst it has been negotiated with a community based organisation, is considered to be at no cost to the City. The Church is responsible for maintaining and cleaning the Premises and the payment of $300 as an annual contribution towards the cost of the facility.

Issue

To consider the City of Wanneroo becoming an “Employer of Choice” and create a position of Organisational Development Project Officer on a fixed term contract to assist in the development and implementation of supporting strategies.

Background

Currently the City of Wanneroo is encountering unprecedented difficulty in attracting and retaining staff.  This is not unique to the City of Wanneroo but is common throughout local government and indeed across all public sectors and private industry.

 

In fact, the City has had a very good employment record over many years and that the current experiences do not relate to any internal issues within the City.  The factors affecting the City’s ability to attract and retain staff relate to major employment trends and lifestyle changes in the general community.  As indicated in recent media coverage the staff shortages in specialist areas have impacted severely on almost every local government in Western Australia.

 

In 2004 the City advertised for 107 positions. In 59 cases (55%) the advertisement attracted less than 5 applicants. In the same year 57 employees resigned from the City and 25 of those (49) went to another position within local government. There is a similar trend evolving for 2005.

 

The City of Wanneroo, like other local governments and public sector organisations, is facing the prospect of our workforce ageing, while at the same time the pool from which new employees will be drawn from is smaller and with vastly different expectations than has been in the past.

 

As evidence of this:-

·               Australia has the second fastest growing GDP 3.8% however running parallel with that is the average workforce is only growing 1.1%;

·               in 7 years more than half the Australian workforce will be over 45

·The next generation (Gen X) is the smallest group in the 20th century; and

·               in the next 15 years there will be a 15% drop in the 25 to 44 year olds.

 

 

Combined with this is the changing face of the new employee.

 


Job security is no longer a serious issue to employees evidenced by the fact that over 22.5% of Australian workers change their job every year.  There is now greater emphasis by prospective employees assessing the company’s “commitment” to their personal direction and development.

 

The challenges facing the City in seeking the best applicants and retaining our staff are multiple and will become more difficult over time.  Issues such as increased competition for talent, growing job mobility, applicants looking for better career development opportunities, lifestyle choices other benefits are just a few of the issues we need to address in a balanced and constructive manner.

Detail

An option in this regard is to simply increase the range of advertising and/or increase the remuneration of all positions such that the City is a leader in the particular profession being advertised. While this may have short-term benefits it only addresses one part of the equation and does not consider the retention strategies required for the existing employees.

 

The City needs to not only look at different and innovative ways to attract the right applicants for vacant positions but also adopt contemporary and effective human resource strategies to retain staff.  To achieve this it is proposed to immediately begin to develop and create the City of Wanneroo as an “Employer of Choice”.

 

It entails a new approach to “people management” for the City and consists of a wide-ranging review of all our current human resource strategies and develop initiatives, which enhance our ability to attract and retain staff.  While there are numerous definitions of what this entails, in simple terms it is being committed to adopting best practice standards in managing staff, commencing with those considering joining the City though to ensuring our existing staff are not only retained but also thrive and develop.

 

Becoming an “Employer of Choice” is a long term commitment. There are eight (8) interrelated sub projects that the City can address in the first instance which set the direction and culture if the city is to adopt this concept.  These are:-

 

Employer Branding

 

We need to work on establishing a strong employer brand that conveys the City’s offerings and educates the marketplace as to what they are ‘buying’ when applying for a position at the City of Wanneroo.

 

Develop Employment Pathways

 

We need to establish a variety of employment pathways, as they are an important means by which we can address competition for talent and also improve the diversity of the workforce.  Included in these are:-

·               Traineeships

·               Cadetships

·               Graduate Entry

·               Scholarships

·               Partnerships with academic institutions

Workforce Planning

 

We need to plan for the future so that we get the right mix at the right time, with the right skills including:-

·               plan to retain and manage critical organisational knowledge as “baby boomers” retire;

·               research, analyse and communicate current, future workforce issues; and

·               assist Managers to plan for future workforce needs.

 

Learning and Development

 

An extremely important issue to address immediately is our need to continue to develop a culture of a learning environment through:-

·               coordinating the training and development processes through a centralised process;

·               developing a performance management process that identifies and addresses role-specific learning and development needs;

·               implementing HR policies and procedures that enable employees to further their career and personal development (eg study assistance, study tours, staff exchanges); and

·               developing Leadership programs such as mentoring, coaching Talent pools.

 

Flexible Employment Arrangements – Work/life Balance

 

We need employment arrangements that supports and is responsive to the workforce of the future that is at a reasonable price to meet business requirements.

 

The City has already implemented flexible hours, job sharing, part time work, and personal family carer leave.  Other family friendly initiatives that may be looked at include home base work, purchase leave and crèche facilities.

 

We need to develop strategies that best fit our organisation, that increase retention of good performers, attract quality candidates, increase job satisfaction within the City and provide a quality place to work.

 

Sound and Fair “ People Management “ Decisions

 

We need to continue to improve our ability to collect and analyse the right data and information to make sound and fair decisions about our workforce.  This will be through:-

·               simplifying human resource policies and make them easier to implement;

·               continuing to implement the new human resource system including further development of E-Services; and

·               developing a suite of reports for Management in order make right decisions at the right time.

 

Safe and Healthy Workplace

 

We need to continue to strengthen our workplace occupational safety and health culture by:


·               continuing to review and improve the effectiveness of our OSH Management systems;

·               striving to achieve Accredited status under Australian Standards for our OSH systems; and

·               implement Incident Investigation Audits.

 

Active and Healthy Workforce

 

The City’s initiatives to generate an active and healthy workforce will need to be regarded as leading edge.  They will improve our productivity through reduced sick leave absences, defer age-linked illness and will attract workers who wish to pursue healthy lifestyles.

Consultation

A number of initiatives that may be considered for inclusion under the “Employer of Choice” umbrella have been identified in recent Strategic Plan Review Workshops and EBA negotiations.

Comment

The successful implementation of these sub projects requires immediate commitment by the Council to the key principles of becoming an Employer of Choice.  Furthermore, if there is to be any immediate benefits achieved the proposal requires the allocation of resources to commence developing the detailed plan together with confirming a timeframe, performance indicators and clear accountabilities.

 

Given the serious need to address these issues as soon as possible it is proposed that Council immediately approve the appointment of an Organisational Development Project Officer whose task it will be to implement and drive the City’s plan to become an Employer of Choice.  The immediate appointment of an Organisational Development Project Officer will assist in developing and implementing a number of the proposed personal development opportunities to coincide with the commencement of the next academic year.

 

The position is planned to be within the Human Resources Business Unit and report directly to the Manager Corporate Resources.  It is envisaged that it will undertake a broad range of responsibilities in this area including, but not restricted to:-

·               undertaking internal assessments (gap analysis) of our current strategies and processes;

·               development and planning of each of the interrelated sub projects;

·               promoting and driving the culture of an Employer of Choice; and

·               creating and fostering the partnerships necessary to sustain our EOC status, particularly in the area of industry, academic and community partnerships for sourcing expertise and resources.

 

The City is seeking to establish a position on a fixed term contract for two (2) years at which time it would be reviewed.  Given the specialist nature of the project it is proposed the position be classified within the Level 7/8 range under the City of Wanneroo Certified Agreement.

Statutory Compliance

Nil.

Strategic Implications

This proposal is consistent with City’s Strategic Plan, in particular –

 

“To create a culture that is committed to corporate learning, evolution and proper management of our natural, financial and human resources”.

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

The City’s current establishment does not provide the opportunity for the creation of this position.  In order to embark on the “Employer of Choice” project immediately an additional fixed term contract position is being sought.

 

Should the position be approved the implications for the financial year 2004/2005 are $12,000.  Further funding requirements for the financial years 2005/06 and 2006/07 would be $80,000 per annum (this includes on cost).

 

The Corporate Resources Business Unit’s 2004/2005 Salaries Budget will be capable of accommodating the additional costs associated with the immediate recruitment of an Organisational Development Project Officer.

Issue

To consider an offer from the Federal Department of Family and Community Services (FaCS) to extend an existing agreement with the City for the provision of In-home Care, until June 2005.

Background

The In-Home Care Program is a funded initiative of the Commonwealth Government’s Stronger Families and Communities Strategy.  It is a flexible form of child care that provides care in the child’s home by an approved carer for families whose childcare needs cannot be met by an existing service.  The City’s role is to facilitate access and provide support to parties involved in the care and welfare of children.

 

An existing agreement (endorsed by Council in December 2001) between the City and FaCS is for the provision of a 15 equivalent full time place In-Home Care service.  The current agreement for In-Home Care service expired on 31 December 2004.

Detail

The Federal department of FaCS’s proposes that the existing agreement be varied to extend until 30 June 2005.  This would allow for a more formal negotiation process to be undertaken with a possible implementation date to commence from 1 July 2005. 

 

To accept the FaCS proposal, the City is required to affix its common seal to a variation document. 

Comment

The acceptance of the FaCS proposal is required to ensure the fulfilment of agreements that the City currently has with families who are currently using the City’s In-home Care program and the self employed Carers who are providing this unique child care service.

 

The proposed extension to the end of this financial year allows for more formal discussion to take place regarding the continued provision of this service.

 

Should Council change it’s focus in this area of service provision, the agreement may be terminated at any time with reasonable written notice to the department. 

Statutory Compliance

A resolution of Council is required to authorise the Mayor and CEO to execute and affix the common seal of the City of Wanneroo to the Certificate of Acceptance.

Strategic Implications

The provision of the In-home Care Child Care Program is consistent with the City’s Strategic Plan:

“2. Healthy Communities

To foster an identity that promotes lifestyle choices and provision of quality services and infrastructure”

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

The City receives an operational subsidy of $16,224 for the 2004/2005 financial year.  In addition an estimated revenue of $3,810 is generated in the same period by the payment (by parents) of a weekly administration levy and an annual membership fee paid by Carers.

 

Additional City resources for operating the programme are cost neutral across the broader Family Day Care operating budget.

Issue

To consider proposed changes to the existing agreement with the State Department of Health in relation to the provision of the Home and Community Care Program (HACC).

Background

The City of Wanneroo receives funding from the Department of Health to provide services under the HACC program. The aim of the HACC program is to provide services to enable people to remain living at home if they so desire and to prevent inappropriate admissions to nursing homes or hostels. Last financial year the City provided HACC services to 792 people.

 

The outputs required to be provided by the City in order to acquit this funding are contained in a service specification schedule that forms part of the contract. The City currently is in the second year of a 3-year contract. Each year variations to this contract are negotiated with the Project Officer from the Department of Health, specifically around the outputs required for the following financial year (2004/2005).

Consultation

N/A

Comment

The services provided are well utilised, relevant and factor highly in supporting the needs of older people and people with disability living in the City of Wanneroo.

 

Additionally, should Council change their focus in this area of service provision, this agreement may be terminated at any time during its term by 90 days written notice to the Department.

Statutory Compliance

A Council resolution is required to allow the Mayor and the Chief Executive Officer to affix the common seal of the City of Wanneroo.

Strategic Implications

The HACC provides programs and services that offer choices that allow people to live independently in our community.  Delivery of the service is consistent with the City’s strategic plan  - 2. Healthy Communities, To foster an identity that promotes lifestyle choices and the provision of quality services and infrastructure.

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

The Annual Funding Level, Schedule 1, for the 2004/2005 period is $1,233,150.00

Should this funding be lost due to a decision not to sign the Deed of Variation there would be a considerable impact on the budget and operations of Community services, given that most operations of the Aged and Disability Services unit are funded through the HACC program.

 

The signing of the Deed of Variation document will allow this funding to continue and represents a rescheduling of target outcomes with no impact on the 2004/05 budget.

 

The outputs required represent realistic targets with current resources (as per 2003/2004 budget) and are achievable.

Issue

To consider progress on the establishment of the Scenic Playground (Accessible and Inclusive Playground), to be located on Scenic Drive Wanneroo.

Background

At its ordinary Council meeting of Tuesday 20th July 2004, Council resolved the following:

 

“That Council: -

1.             ENDORSES the concept plan as shown at Figures 16 & 17 in Attachment 1;(Not included in this report)

2.             NOTES the indicative project budget for completion of Stage 1 of the playground;

3.             NOTES that an application for funding for the purchase of a Liberty Swing has been made to the Variety Club of Western Australia; and

4.             ENDORSES the development of a Master Plan for the construction of the playground concurrent with the development of detailed design for Stage One of the playground.”

In line with the above recommendations, the City engaged consultants Arbor Vitae in November 2004, to undertake the master planning exercise and provide concept plans and costings to further develop the project. As planning for the project has evolved, it was deemed that Stage A of the master plan would be better suited to the northern area of the park alongside the existing car park. In reviewing the staging, administration has recommended that the majority of the resources of the various stages be concentrated in the northern area to ensure the outcome is of a very high standard and quality and meets Council objectives for the project (refer to Attachments 1 and 2).

 

This report seeks to outline the continued progress of the project and provide costing and staging concepts for consideration.

Detail

The proposed concept design that has been developed by Abor Vitae is an exciting and innovative design.  The major themes are the integration of the concepts of “sharing with the environment” and the provision of diverse and interesting tactile, play activity and artistic elements. The overriding focus is the creation of a “tree house” environment that would provide a unique and valuable experience for users.

 

The concept recognizes the need to link the north and south areas in the playground and incorporate the Peace Memorial and other existing elements that may be of interest. In order to achieve the design in its totality, it is proposed to undertake staged construction of the playground, beginning with the interconnecting pathways and a proposed accessible environmental toilet facility and an extension to the existing car park. It is anticipated that construction will commence in the 2004/2005 financial year.

 

The design concept incorporates a drop off zone for families and the elderly, a new environmental accessible toilet, a new car park, the Liberty Swing and play zones that focus on particular aspects of play such as

 

·                Themed action ( swings, rock climbing, mounding)

·                Climbing apparatus

·                Swing area

·                Junior area to promote creative thought and play

·                A Tree House

·                A Sand pit area

·                Open space

·                Family space for picnics, groups etc

 

Specific elements for play will include

·                Rockers

·                Slides in the mounding (for safety)

·                Swings

·                Wind instruments

·                Climbing equipment

·                A raised wooden walkway suitable for wheelchairs

 

The playground area makes use of existing trees and grassed areas for use by all. It will be sited in a way that allows the playground itself to form a safety barrier to protect users from danger, e.g. the road or the lake.  Earth mounds will allow visual access both for parents/carers and the participant using the playground. The design is open and promotes an overview of all play areas within the playground.

 

It has been suggested that signage could promote an educational aspect and could be used to highlight the local flora and fauna, the local City of Wanneroo history or indigenous themes.

 

Following a publicised Expression of Interest, artist Claire Bailey has been appointed to work with the consultants to introduce the artistic elements of the playground design. Claire’s brief is to introduce art in innovative and inclusive ways.

Funding

The City continues to seek assistance from external sources for funding of various components of the Scenic Playground. Discussions with LotteryWest have indicated that whilst having a view that the provision of playgrounds is a core responsibility of Local Government, they will consider funding applications for specific items or accessories of a innovative nature, or that can be identified as being beyond the scope of “mainstream” design.

 

An application has been submitted to the Independent Living Centre’s Equipment for Living – Local Government Grant for funding to contribute towards the cost of the Liberty Swing and the pathways for the playground. The funding amount per Local Government is $20,000.00. The cost of a Liberty Swing is approximately $25,000.00 plus installation and surrounding works costs to a total value of approximately $45,000.00.  Supplementary funding is being sought from local service groups like the Wanneroo Lions.  Please note that the previous application to the Variety Club for funding has been unsuccessful.  The Variety Club has declared a moratorium on further funding due to the numerous demands for funding placed on them for Liberty Swing funding.

 

Local businesses such as Bunnings and Midland Brick, will be approached for sponsorship and donations of materials and/or contributions in kind such as the construction of pathways, the timber walkway, the sand pit and concrete areas. 

 

Further opportunities for sponsorship exist for the acquisition of park furniture and fixtures, signage and lighting.  Potential sponsors identified are Western Power, Alinta Gas, the Market Growers Association, and Rotary.  Local educational facilities such as TAFE and Edith Cowan University are to be approached for “in kind” assistance.

 

The Community Arts Network WA (CANWA) has funding available for community based projects and will be approached for this project.

The Arts Development Panel, a part of Arts WA, also has funding opportunities that focus on professional development opportunities for individual artists. This would require a significant artistic focus developed from or incorporated into the design detail of the playground.

Consultation

Further community consultation was entered into as follows;

 

·                Workshop 1 - a focus group for families,

·                Workshop 2 – a focus group to discuss the Indigenous point of view (unfortunately this session was abandoned due to a lack of attendance)

·                Workshop 3 - gained input from Local Area Coordinators, from the Disability Services Commission and representatives from agencies who provide services to people with disabilities.

 

The feedback from the consultation groups focused on the following:

·                Safety on all aspects, e.g. equipment, safety of those with intellectual disability    from the road and lake

·                A design suitable for all age groups

·                Provision of shade

·                Visual access, in particular to oversee children playing

·                A broad range of suitable activities, e.g. balancing bar, liberty swing, musical instruments, water and sand play, slides and rockers

·                Meet the needs of all family members

·                Provision of pathways that are wide enough for wheelchairs and turning

·                Disabled toilets that are large enough to suit a wide range of wheelchairs and with changing areas

·                Tables and chairs suitable for wheelchairs

·                Area for action e.g. for sporting activities

·                Stimulating

·                Innovative

·                Use of existing environment e.g. mounding

 

Concerns raised focussed on the lake, the close proximity to the road, sun sensitivity often experienced by people with disabilities, vandalism and the local fauna e.g. snakes and midges.

 

The proposed concept design, staging and financial processes outlined in this report have been presented to and endorsed by the Special Needs Playground Working Group.

Comment

Community consultation has been completed. Feedback received from these final sessions has been incorporated into the detailed design of stage 1 of the playground.

 

This consultation reinforced the need for and relevance of an accessible and inclusive playground. The playground compliments existing infrastructure, the local environment and other projects being undertaken by the City, such as the refurbishment of the town centre.

Statutory Compliance

Nil

Strategic Implications

The construction of an accessible and inclusive playground is consistent with the City’s Strategic Plan in the following areas:

 

“2.5     Foster a community that finds strength in its diversity;

 2.6      Provide and manage infrastructure to meet the needs of the community, and

 2.7      Provide community focussed services and lifestyle opportunities.”

Policy Implications

Administration considers the Concept Plan to be innovative and that it incorporates specific and key design elements that addressed the needs of individuals of all ages and promotes accessibility and inclusiveness.

Financial Implications

The main financial implications relate to how the playground may be staged in terms of its construction. Administration has reviewed the staging as proposed in the 2004 consultant’s report (see schedule below) and have made adjustments to compress the program into three financial years to meet the new staging plan from Arbor Vitae. This approach will meet the needs of the City for the next five years and save $169,000.  See 2005 proposal below.

Issue

To consider the amended School Scholarship Policy and guidelines.

Background

In August of 2002 Council established a School Scholarship Program Policy (CD156-08/02 refers). This policy outlined the City’s commitment to provide scholarships to the value of $1,250.00 for each government high school operating within the City of Wanneroo.

 

The Scholarship Program is aimed at providing a retention incentive for students who have displayed above average levels of achievement in any aspect of school life or are at a financial or social disadvantage that may limit their educational opportunities.

 

In 2003 the City provided scholarships to the value of $1,250 to the following schools:

 

·                Clarkson Community High School

·                Girrawheen Senior High School

·                Wanneroo Senior High School

·                Yanchep District High School

·                Mindarie Senior College

 

2004 scholarships are currently being finalised.

 

The scholarships were broken down as follows:

           

            2 Encouragement Scholarships of $250.00 each

            2 Academic Achievement Scholarships of $375.00 each.

 

The School Scholarship Policy was scheduled for review in June of 2003

Detail

After considering feedback from schools in relation to this policy, several minor changes have been included for consideration.

 

A summary of these changes is presented below.

 

The “Encouragement Scholarships” have been renamed the “Active Citizenship” Scholarships.

 

The eligibility for “Active Citizenship” Scholarship noted above has been changed from year 8, 9, and 10, to years 9, 10, and 11. This change was considered necessary to allow Mindarie Senior College (MSC) to select its students for this scholarship, as MSC only has students in years 11 and 12.

 

The Guidelines, which form Attachment 1, reflect the policy changes as stated above. There has also been a loosening of the allocations of the scholarships from:

 

·                2 Encouragement Scholarships of $250.00 each

·                2 Academic Achievement Scholarships of $375.00 each.

 

to

 

·                Only Academic Achievement and Active Citizenship Scholarships will be funded

·                There must be at least one Academic Achievement Scholarship and one Active Citizenship Scholarship

·                No student is to receive more than $400 in scholarship payments.

 

This change will still require each school to confer at least four scholarships, however, if a school so wishes, it is also in a position to offer more, slightly smaller, scholarships.

Comment

The changes to the policy reflect an evolution to the School Scholarship Program. The slight change was warranted due to the success and popularity of the program within the Government Schools in the City of Wanneroo.

 

The changing of the name from Encouragement Scholarship to Active Citizenship Scholarship allows schools to recognise those students who put many hours work into promoting their school environment. It is felt that this recognition is needed and encourages these students to stay in school when they may have decided otherwise.

 

The alteration to the year groupings eligible for this scholarship is a reflection of the inclusion of Mindarie Senior College (MSC). MSC as a senior college only has students in years 11 and 12, and if this scholarship were only open to years 8, 9 and 10 (as it was under the previous policy) then the school would have to make these awards based on the information received from the students’ previous school, and not their contribution to MSC.

 

The guidelines for allocating the scholarships has been loosened up to allow principals more freedom to recognise students within their school, while still providing a framework which allows the schools to easily implement the program and fulfil the reporting requirements. Under the change a principal is still required to allocate at least four scholarships, however, they are able to allocate more, if they feel it is warranted. The guidelines still have safe guards in place, such as the requirement to provide tax invoices, to ensure the funding is spent on scholarships and not considered a part of the operational revenue of the school.

 

To increase the profile of scholarship recipients and school students awarded Citizenship awards sponsored by the City, it is also recommended that these young people be invited to attend the City’s annual Australia Day citizenship ceremony and awards presentation. 


It is hoped that this will acknowledge the efforts of our students to a wider community and encourage greater participation in active citizenship.  This proposal will also highlight to schools the availability of the City’s annual Australia Day awards and the opportunity to nominate students for these awards.

Introduction

 

The City of Wanneroo is committed to creating a vibrant and diverse City, based on the development of healthy communities and a sustainable environment. 

 

This strategic intent requires the City to lead and participate in community activities and development, as well as form partnerships with organizations and agencies involved in particular programs and endeavours.

 

School-based scholarships are one of the methods that can be utilised by the City to recognise and encourage students (and their families) who represent the future of our community. 

 

The provision of financial or in-kind support to these individuals via the school environment encourages students to remain at school and to pursue tertiary entrance or Vocational Education and Training studies.  The scholarship program is a valid strategy for further establishing and promoting the City’s overall strategic directions.

 

Support of the school scholarship program can also assist to establish the City’s identity and corporate citizenship at a wider level, linking it with causes and concerns at a local, State and National level that contributes to the development of local healthy communities and a sustainable environment.

 

Objective

 

In order to pursue the City’s wider objectives in an accountable and equitable manner, this policy provides a framework for the administration and assessment of the School Scholarship Program.

 

Statement

 

Under this policy, each financial year the City shall make available 2 types of scholarships to each government high school across the City.

 

These scholarships are as follows:

 

·         City of Wanneroo Active Citizenship Scholarships,

Why has the process changed?

 

The City of Wanneroo has reviewed the School Scholarship Program and discovered that the administration of the program, for both the City and for schools, would benefit greatly from a clearer, structured process that requires the same response from all schools.  The City is also keen to use school feedback to assist in the continuous improvement of the program.

 

What has changed?

 

·         Schools are required to submit a Response Form to ensure that the City’s contact details relating to the program are current,

·         Allocation amounts for scholarships are specified by the City of Wanneroo,

·         Schools must submit an application information package (for students) for approval of:

·         City of Wanneroo logo or statement of support,

·         Scholarship structure for the amount of $1,250.00.

·         Schools are required to submit a tax invoice to the City before the grant amount will be paid to the school,

·         Schools are required to provide a 1 page Annual Feedback Report to the City, (see sample included).

 

How are the scholarships allocated?

 

The allocation of specific scholarships is left to the discretion of the schools, to allow the program to cater to the needs of individual schools. The following guidelines are the only guides provided by the City of Wanneroo for the allocation of scholarships:-

 

·         Only “Academic Achievement” and “Active Citizenship” Scholarships will be funded by the City of Wanneroo.

·         There must be at least one Academic Achievement Scholarship and one Active Citizenship Scholarship in each school.


 

Text Box: ATTACHMENT 1

Issue

To consider the status of design development of the Girrawheen Library and Senior Citizens Centre and to seek approval to proceed to the next stage.

Background

Council endorsed the upgrading of community facilities at Girrawheen comprising the Library and Senior Citizens centre (referred to as the Girrawheen Community Centre) in November 2003. The objective of the upgrade is to address the following issues:

 

At the meeting of Council held on 25 November 2003 it was resolved (refer CD13-11/03)

 

“That Council:-

ADOPTS the Concept Plan for the upgrading of the Girrawheen Community Facility as outlined in the report from Arbor Vitae dated July 2003.

NOTES the staged design and construction proposal for the upgrading of the Girrawheen Community Facility over two financial years as outlined in the report from Arbor Vitae dated July 2003.

LISTS FOR CONSIDERATION $500,000 in the 2004/05 budget for consultancy fees for Structural Engineers Physical Condition Inspection report, Architects design and documentation fees, Cost Planning and Quantity Surveyor Fees and preliminary construction costs for the Girrawheen Community Facility.

LISTS FOR CONSIDERATION $770,000 in the 2005/06 budget for the balance of construction costs for the upgrading of the Girrawheen Community Facility and any additional funding that may be identified in the Structural Engineers Physical Condition Report and for fitting out as identified by the Cost Planner/Quantity Surveyor.”

Detail

The objective of the upgrade is to address the following issues:

 

Linkages

·                Expand the library and create an internal community lounge within an existing space between the buildings to integrate the facilities.

·                Encourage stronger linkages through to the adjacent primary school, church and shopping centre.


Access

·                Allow for a shared entry point to the community facility to generate more activity.

·                Provide entries to the front and rear of the complex to provide flexibility to access.

·                Provide and locate adequate and secure parking for cars.

 

Security

·                Ensure passive surveillance of parking areas and entry points from within the buildings, in particular the library.

·                Maximise transparency to the complex to increase activity and provide interaction between indoor and outdoor activities.

 

Identity

·                Provide a focal entry statement on Patrick Court that indicates the main entrance drop off.

·                Encourage bold community art murals along the external walls giving the complex a community identity.

·                Use innovative graphic designs to the security screens in branding the complex.

 

Services

A key element underlying the upgrade of the Library in particular is the objective of providing an extended range of customer services based on the “Clarkson Model”. These will include local residents being able to pay rates, general accounts and register dogs as well as making a range of enquiries relating to Council services.

 

Architects Arbor Vitae were appointed to undertake the development of a concept plan and indicative cost estimates. The estimates prepared at that time by Ralph and Beattie Bosworth indicated building costs, based on the concept plan, to be $1,270,000.

 

Exclusions included:

 

·                Fitting out

·                Upgrades to plant i.e. air-conditioning

·                Fire rating between library and senior citizens.

 

Woodhead International has been appointed as Project Architect and the WT Partnership as Cost Planners/Quantity Surveyors. They have commenced the design process and have thus far: -

 

·                Carried out a detailed inspection of the buildings and provided a condition report.

·                Carried out a Traffic Management Study and tabled that report.

·                Prepared sketch plans showing recommended development with options

·                Prepared a detailed cost analysis.

 

The following detailed reports are available for inspection:

 

Woodhead International                     Building Inspection Report

Sinclair Knight Mertz                         Building Inspection Report

Miller Associates                                 Traffic Assessment Report

Sinclair Knight Mertz                         Geotechnical Report

Landscape Planners                            Landscape design Report

The findings of these reports have been incorporated into the designs presented thus far.

 

The key elements are summarised as follows:

 

Building Condition

 

The main areas of concern with the building structure were associated with the roof drainage and especially the treatment of box gutters. Presently the box gutters discharge to the ventral lobby area and the design caters to redirection of this flow.

 

Mechanical Services

 

Mechanical services were the cause of concern with the systems in the senior citizens centre and the library mainly being evaporative.  The design as presented allows for the provision of reverse cycle air-conditioning to the Library and Community Foyer and to the majority of the Senior Citizens Centre.

 

Traffic Assessment

 

The traffic assessment was focussed on the north side of the facility and did not address the flow to the rear vehicle parking area.  The Project Team was advised that Balga Job Link has taken up tenancy of the “Scout Hall” and will be accommodating 20 permanent staff. There will also be traffic movements caused by clients visiting the Centre.

 

Woodhead International was instructed to have the report reviewed in this context as soon as possible.

 

Sketch Plans

 

The designs presented to Administration on 17 February 2005 meet all the requirements of the Design Brief. These plans are depicted in Attachments 1 and 2.

 

The design of the Central Lobby provides an address to the Centre and enhances the user appeal of the complex.  The treatment of the west end of the Senior Citizens centre has been designed to meet fire compartmentation requirements.

 

Key variations to the Concept Plans are the provision of Universal Access toilets in both the Library and Senior Citizens Centre.  The provision of these facilities has led to additional costs.

 

A “value adding” feature has been the conversion of the courtyard in the Library to a usable, accessible and attractive space. Similarly, the present covered and little used courtyard at the Senior Citizens centre has been converted to a functional space that also adds to the passive surveillance characteristics of the building.

 

Cost Analysis

 

The current indicative costing for the project is projected at $2,387,000, an increase of $1,117,000 over the original estimate. A comparison of the base estimates indicates a design cost increase of $231,000 as set out in the table below:

Design Options

 

The design and cost report provides for a number of options, which will increase the cost of the project.  Those considered being essential have been included in the cost summary. 

 

Those not provided for in the summary include:

 

·                All internal upgrading to Scout Hall other than paint and render external walls.  $49,000

·                Extension of roof canopy of Porte Couchiere over roadway                                 $33,150

·                Additional hydraulic costs and tank enclosure to upgrade existing water main    $37,500

 

Project Development Options.

 

The following options relating to the upgrading of the Centre have been canvassed:

 

Maintain Status Quo

 

Having regard to the extent of community consultation there is a high level of expectation among user groups, the community, staff and elected members that a major upgrade of the Girrawheen facilities will take place.

 

In the event the project is not proceeded with to the extent shown consideration will need to be given to the following: 

 

Provision of Disabled Access Toilets Library                                                $  30,000                                                                     Senior Citizens Centre                        $  74,000

Upgrade of airconditioning                Library                                                $130,000

                                                            Senior Citizens Centre                        $168,000

Removal of asbestos eaves                 Library                                                $  22,000

Microwave Link to Library                                                                             $ 36,000

(Note above costs adjusted for contingencies and other

allowances)                            

Total Possible Works                                                                                      $460,000        

 

Proceed with full upgrade Option 1

 

Seek Council endorsement of the increase in project costs and the allocation of the full increase in funding in 2005-06. The advantages are that it will see the project commence in a very short time frame with the downside being a negative impact on the 2005-06 capital works budget.

 

Proceed with full upgrade-Option 2.

 

Having regard to the cost increases, which all have a sound basis, and the impact on the capital budget an option is to consider deferring commencement of the project until, say, March 2006 and funding the project over 3 financial years. This would have the effect of reducing the impact on the 2005-06 capital works budget. Another key benefit will be to allow the design and all community consultation to be undertaken by December of this year with tenders and construction flowing on as from February 2006.

 

The downside is that expectations would have to be managed and an allowance would have to be made for additional professional fees due to the delay and an increase in overall costs. An indicative impact would be in the order of 12% or $275,000.

Consultation

Extensive consultation has been undertaken with the Project Management Team.

 

There will need to be further discussion with the user groups of the Senior Citizens Centre who extensively consulted with throughout the development of the Concept Plan.  It is proposed to meet with as soon as practical after the Council has taken a decision on the future progress of the project.

Comment

The plans prepared by Woodhead International reflect the outcomes required of their commission in a modest and realistic manner.

 

The enhancements to the Girrawheen Library and Senior Citizens Centre are needed to meet the objectives of providing a contemporary range of services in an environment that reflects current work place and service delivery standards.

 

The project has previously been subject to extensive community consultation and decisions have been taken to proceed with the project subject to appropriate funding being made available.

 

The increases in costs to the project can be largely attributed to items not included in the original cost estimates. In each case they are considered to be germane to the project and will add value to the facility and to enhance the Centre’s appeal to users and customers.

 

The recommended method of advancing the project is seen as being politically and practically acceptable.

 

It is however recommended that no further detailed design and documentation be undertaken by the architects until Council adopts the 2005-06 budget, confirming a commitment to financing this project.

 

There is some speculation that a change of ownership is being considered for the Summerfield Shopping Centre (refer Attachment 3), which may provide other opportunities for integrated development of community facilities.  As there are no confirmed arrangements in place, it is not possible to open discussions regarding these possibilities.  Administration will, however, remain vigilant to any news regarding this property and take the earliest opportunity to approach any new owners regarding provision of community facilities in this area.

Statutory Compliance

The design development process is subject to conformity with relevant regulatory and statutory requirements.

Strategic Implications

The project will satisfy the following strategic objective by enhancing facilities and services, which are available to the community in Girrawheen and surrounding suburbs.

 

“2.       Healthy Communities

To foster and identity that promotes lifestyle choices and provision of quality services and infrastructure.

 

2.6       To provide and manage infrastructure to meet the needs of our community

2.7       To Provide community focussed services and lifestyle opportunities.”

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

The 2004-05 Budget contains an allowance of $500,000 for Stage 1 of the redevelopment project – Project 815020.

 

Council’s resolution of 25 November 2003 provides for consideration of an additional $770,000 in 2005/06 with this amount to be adjusted to allow for additional funding for fitting out and upgrading as required by the Building Condition inspection.

 

For the project to be given an approval to proceed beyond this point, there needs to be an endorsement of the additional costs involved and a decision taken as to the extent of additional funding that will be made available to the project.

 

Total costs for the project are currently estimated to be:

 

Construction as per Woodhead International report and based on cost estimates provided by the WT Partnership

 

$2,387,000

Provision for cost escalations by delaying project until March 2006 as per estimates provided by the WT Partnership

$275,000

Total estimated project costs

$2,662,000.00

Issue

To advise of an application received from the Wanneroo Amateur Football Club Inc and the Wanneroo Cricket Club for the upgrading of the floodlights at Wanneroo Showgrounds to large ball sports competition standard.

Background

Floodlights are currently being installed at the Wanneroo Showgrounds to meet Australian Standards for training purposes for large ball sports.

 

The City is funding the installation with a contribution from the Department of Sport & Recreation.  The total cost of the contract is $96,500.

 

The project comprises the installation of 4 x 30 metre towers each with 3 luminaries to meeting training standards. Switching will be from the irrigation controller and the lights will set according to approved training bookings with an automatic cut off at 10:00pm.  Lights can be used at other times by arrangement.  When used for training the cost of operation is absorbed into the ground rental charge.

 

The works are due for completion by the end of April.

Detail

An application has been received from the Wanneroo Amateur Football Club to upgrade the lighting installation to competition standard for large ball sports. The Club, in company with the Wanneroo Cricket Club, will fund the complete costs of the upgrade.

 

In order to meet current Australian Standards 2560.2.3 for competition lighting for large ball sports it will be necessary too install another 2 luminaires on each pole, install cabling, switching and control gear to enable the separate operation and metering of the competition standard lights and to provide and install a power meter. The poles and lighting bars have been designed to cater for the later installation of competition lights.

 

The objective is to ensure training level lights operate for general bookings with the costs being part of the ground hire fee. The users of the competition lights will be required to pay the full operating costs of the lights, which will be determined by meter readings. Security of this system will need to be investigated and resolved as part of the installation process to ensure abuse is minimised.

 

It is practical to carry out these works as a variation to the current contract and they are anticipated to cost in the order of $25,000.  A definitive quotation is being sought and will be submitted as soon as possible.

 

In discussing the upgrade with the Clubs they were advised as follows:

 

“We will need a more formal application, which can be presented for approval.

 

However, in the interests of getting things moving I will ask for a variation to be scoped up and price sought. I understand that it will be in the order of $25,000.

 

Some other issues must be made clear from the outset.

 

The City will only install floodlights that meet Australian Standards. At this stage there is no Australian Standard for cricket lighting though I am aware that there is considerable work being done on this issue. It is our practice to install lights only to training standards for large ball sports with clubs meeting all costs associated with any approved upgrade to competition lights (large ball sports)

 

In the case of Wanneroo Showground’s the stance that I will promote for approval is that the application be from the Football Club as the lights can be upgraded to meet Australian Standards for large ball sports - competition. I cannot recommend the installation of the upgraded lights on the basis they will be adequate for cricket.

 

In the application, however, reference can be made to the work being done by the WACA to develop standards and that the City of Wanneroo will be exempted from any liability if the lights are used for cricket. This could perhaps be resolved by getting Jardine's to word their policy to specifically cover this event.

 

Please contact me for any clarification and especially to advise of a timetable to submit a formal application.”

 

The formal response from the Club is attached.

 

“The Wanneroo Amateur Football Club would like to apply for the upgrading of the new lighting to be installed at the Wanneroo Showgrounds. We will ensure they comply with Australian Standards for large ball sports and any costs incurred will be met by us”

Consultation

Floodlights have been installed at the Wanneroo Showgrounds for several years.  These meet previous training level standards for large ball sports.

 

Consultation has not been undertaken with respect to upgrading the lights to meet current Australian Standards for Large Ball Sports Competition Lighting.

 

 

Comment

The installation of competition light will enable the Wanneroo Football Club and other potential ground users to promote night fixtures and other events.  This will open the way for more potential users of the reserve. However, a fixed curfew, of 10:00pm, should be adopted and enforced on all occasions.

 

The Clubs will need to enter into an agreement stipulating that the lights can only be used for large ball sports (Australian Rules Football, Rugby, Soccer) and not be used for cricket or cricket training.

 

It is understood that the WA Cricket Association is investigating the adoption of standards for cricket lighting in company with their insurers. It is suggested it would be acceptable for cricket to use the lights only if the WA Cricket Association and its insurers provide an acceptable indemnity to Council.  These issues should be addressed in the “use agreement” which should also covers issues such as operation cost recovery, maintenance, and lamp replacement.

Statutory Compliance

The installation will comply with current Australian Standards.

Strategic Implications

The installation of upgraded floodlighting will meet Strategic Plan objective:

 

“2        Healthy Communities

To foster an identity that promotes lifestyle choices and provision of quality services and infrastructure.

 

2.6       Provide and manage infrastructure to meet the needs of our community.”

Policy Implications

The provision of upgraded floodlighting as requested is consistent with Policy 7.3.1 Floodlighting:

 

“The installation of any additional floodlights, together with associated operating and maintenance costs, will be the responsibility of the club or clubs allocated the facility providing the installation of the additional floodlighting is approved by Council and is in accordance with Australian Standard Code 2560 (Australian Standard 2560.2.3)”

Financial Implications

The total costs of the upgrade to competition standard for large ball sports will be met by the Wanneroo Amateur Football Club and the Wanneroo Cricket Club.

 

Operating costs will be recovered for the competition lighting only by way meter reading and direct charge to the user groups. It would be proposed to introduce an hourly rate recovery system upon determining the actual costs in the operating environment.


It will also be suggested that the hourly rate charge incorporate a factor for future lamp replacement/maintenance.

 

It will be recommended that the Clubs will have to prepay the quoted costs of the works prior to any variation order being issued. The need to enter into a “use agreement” will also be requirement.

 

The Manager Finance Services has advised that the Wanneroo Football Club has no outstanding debt with the City.  The Manager Contracts and Property has confirmed that the Club does not have a current lease agreement for the clubrooms.

Issue

To consider an application for an exemption to Council’s Local Laws made under Section 26(3) of the Dog Act 1976 to keep more than two dogs.

Background

Clause 14 of the City of Wanneroo Animal Local Laws 1999 stipulates:

 

            “A person shall not keep or permit to be kept on any premises more than:

 

            a) 2 dogs over the age of 3 months and the young of those dogs under that age; or

 

b) 6 dogs over the age of 3 months and the young of those dogs under that age if the premises are situated within a rural area or comprise a lot in a special rural area having an area of 4 hectares or more;

 

unless the premises is licensed as an approved kennel establishment or has been granted an exemption pursuant to section 26(3) of the Dog Act 1976 and have planning approval under the Town Planning Scheme.”

Detail

The following application has been made under the Dog Act 1976 and is submitted for consideration:

 

Address of Applicant

Description of Dogs

 

18 Via Vista Drive, Mariginiup

 

Male Black and Gold German Shepherd

Female Sterilised Brown German Shepherd

Female Black and Gold German Shepherd

 

 

A Ranger has inspected the property to ensure that means exist on the premises at which the dog will ordinarily be kept for effectively confining the dog within the premises.

 


 

Address of Applicant

Property Zoning

Size of Property

 

18Via Vista Drive, Mariginiup

 

 

Special Rural 08

 

2.0742 ha

Consultation

It has been the practice where an application is received by the City to keep more than two dogs, that residents immediately adjoining the applicant’s property in question have been consulted by letter to ascertain if they have any objections.

 

On this occasion the following objections have been received:

 

18 Via Vista Drive, Mariginiup

 

Number of residents consulted:          3

Number of objections received:          Nil

Comment

In considering this application for exemption, the following two options are available:

 

a)       Council may grant an exemption pursuant to Section 26(3) of the Dog Act 1976 subject to conditions;

b)      Council may refuse permission to keep more than two dogs.

 

18 Via Vista Drive, Mariginiup

 

A check of the City’s records reveals that prior to this application being made no previous complaints have been lodged with Ranger and Safety Services in relation to the dogs at the premises. 

 

The reason the applicant is seeking approval for a third dog is that “Verosu Katio” is 13 years of age and has far exceeded her life expectancy and is not expected to live for much longer.  “Mossimo” is quite reliant on “Verosu Katio” and they fear that if she passes away “Mossimo” may suffer which they believe would be detrimental to her health.  Hence the introduction of their third dog “Lily” as a companion  for “Mossimo”. 

 

The applicant has built a specific enclosure for the dogs, which is where the dogs are kept when no one is home.  When the owners are at home the dogs are either in or around the house or with them down at the stables.  “Mossimo” and “Verosu Katio” have both attended obedience classes and the applicant advises that “Lily” will also be attending obedience classes.

 

The inspecting Ranger advised that the property is adequate for the confinement and exercise of the three dogs.  Fences and gates are all 1 metre in height and/or higher, incorporating a large backyard.  The three dogs also have a dog run at the side of the property and adequate shelter.  The Ranger has recommended that an exemption to the City of Wanneroo Local Laws 1999 made under Section 26(3) of the Dog Act 1976 be granted.

Statutory Compliance

This application for exemption to Council’s Local Laws made under Section 26(3) of the Dog Act 1976 has been detailed in this report.

Issue

Consideration and adoption of the City of Wanneroo Compliance Audit Return for the period between 01 January to the 31 December 2004.

Background

Each local government is to carry out an annual compliance audit against the requirements included in the Compliance Audit Return. 

 

In the Local Government Compliance Audit Return for 2003 Council achieved full compliance in all areas detailed within the return.

Detail

Detailed in the Officers Recommendation is the completed Local Government Compliance Audit Return for 2004.  

 

It is noted in this year’s annual return that two areas of non-compliance occurred which are summarised as follows:

 

1.             Function and General Regulation, Clause 5 requires that Council prior to fix or alter the alignment of a public thoroughfare give written notice to all service authorities.

          It is noted that the City’s Administration liase directly with all relevant service agents prior to or during the undertaking of any works that may impact on any of these service provider.

 

          Council’s Administration does not however write to all service providers prior to undertaking any works if the works will have not adverse impact on these services. The management procedure for this process has now been amended to ensure future compliance.

 

2.             Section 5.76 of the Local Government Act 1995 requires that all elected members and all designated employees lodge an annual return with the Chief Executive Officer no later than the 31 August each year. During the reporting period one elected member lodge their annual return on the 21 September 2004.

 

Council’s Internal Auditors have audited the return and support Council’s compliance statement including the two areas of non-compliance. The Review of Compliance Audit Return as prepared by Council’s Internal Auditors is detailed as Attachment One.

 

Statutory Compliance

The Local Government (Audit) Amendment Regulations 1999, Regulation 15 states:

 

“14      (3)        A compliance audit return is to be-

 

                        (a)        presented to the council at a meeting of the council;

 

                        (b)        adopted by the council; and

 

                        (c)        recorded in the minutes of the meeting at which it is adopted.”

 

Regulation 15 further requires that the Compliance Return together with a copy of the relevant section of the minutes are to be provided to the Executive Director by 31 March next, following the period to which the return relates.

Strategic Implications

A strategy under the Strategic Goal – Corporate Management and Development is a strategy pertaining to establishing an organisation that is open, accountable and committed to customer service.

 

The Annual Compliance Return is a useful tool in assessing how well Council addresses its legal obligations under the Local Government Act 1995.

Issue

To consider endorsement of a draft Smart Growth Assessment Tool (SGAT) for release for public comment.

Background

The Smart Growth Draft Strategy discussion paper and the Draft Smart Growth Strategy reports released for public comment during the course of 2004 included a proposal for the preparation of a SGAT.  The SGAT is intended to enable effective application of the principles and strategies contained in the Smart Growth Strategy to the assessment of development proposals.

 

Consultants Syme Marmion were engaged to assist the City in the preparation of a SGAT for assessment of structure plans and subdivision applications.  The preparation of a SGAT to apply to more detailed development proposals (eg. development applications and building licences) is intended to be considered following implementation of the broader level SGAT.

 

The Smart Growth Steering Committee was briefed on progress in preparation of the SGAT at its meeting of 31 January 2005.

Detail

The draft SGAT actually comprises three levels of SGAT:

 

·                District Structure Plan SGAT

·                Local Structure Plan SGAT

·                Subdivision SGAT

 

The SGAT is in the form of a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet and a copy of each level of the SGAT is provided as Attachments 1, 2 and 3 to this report.

 

A detailed explanatory report on the draft SGAT has been prepared and a copy of this has been placed in the Elected Members’ Reading Room.  Elected members are referred to that report for explanation of the detailed aspects of the SGAT.  This report provides an overview of the key aspects.

 

 

While the SGAT was originally intended to enable application of the principles and strategies of the Smart Growth Strategy, the present draft SGAT goes well beyond this, incorporating all other key statutory and policy requirements which should be considered in assessment of structure plan and subdivision applications.

 

The main benefits of the SGAT are:

 

·                A whole of organisation approach to the development of new communities

·                To assist developers in preparing their structure plans – at district, local and subdivision levels.

·                To allow developers and the City of Wanneroo Council and staff to consistently assess the performance of structure plans against the City’s Smart Growth Strategy.

·                Flags statutory and policy requirements in an integrated manner to provide a framework for negotiations with the city.

 

The structure of the SGAT is based on the structure of the draft Smart Growth Strategy itself ie:

 

·                Smart Growth principles

·                Smart Growth strategies for each principle

·                Criteria for each strategy

·                Measurement of criteria to enable a score to eventually be given

 

The criteria used are one of two types: statutory and non-statutory.  All statutory criteria must be met to be able to receive a Smart Growth ‘star’ rating.

 

The score achieved, ranging from 1 star for a 60% score, to 5 stars for an 80% score, determines the star rating given.  Each principle is able to be star-rated, as well as the project as a whole.

 

It is important to note that the SGAT is not intended to be a decision making tool, but rather an aid to decision-making and negotiation.  It will identify areas in which proposals may be strong or weak, enable costs and benefits of trade off to be measured, and provide a focus for further refinement of development proposals.

 

The SGAT is intended to be used by developers in the course of preparation of their proposals, in a form of self-assessment.  The proposal would be submitted to the City together with the developer’s self-assessment which would then be assessed by the City as to whether it is sound or not.

 

Initially, developers could not be required (in a mandatory way) to undertake the self-assessment, however it will be made clear to them that the SGAT will be used in the assessment of their proposal.  Developers could be expected to see that it will be in their own interest to undertake the self-assessment.

 

In due course, an amendment is intended to City of Wanneroo District Planning Scheme No.2 (DPS2) to implement the Smart Growth Strategy and it is possible that this may include a provision requiring SGAT self assessment by developers.

 

 

Consultation

The development of the City’s Smart Growth Strategy and SGAT has involved extensive consultation with Elected Members, Administration, the development industries, various stakeholders and the community. 

 

The development of the tool has required the entire organisation to critically review many of its processes and policies and consider how best to integrate these statements into one assessment tool. In doing this the process that has been followed has established a benchmark for what can be achieved through collaboration and integration as one organisation.

 

Given the need to obtain as much cooperation as possible from the development industry, briefings on the SGAT have been provided to the Urban Development Institute of Australia and the Australian Association of Planning Consultants.

 

Syme Marmion has consulted widely in the course of its work, including with the Department for Planning and Infrastructure which plays a significant role in the assessment and approval processes for structure plans and subdivision applications (indeed, the WA Planning Commission approves the latter, with the City providing comments and recommendations).

 

The SGAT includes a system of weightings for the various principles, strategies and criteria.  With a view to obtaining information to assist in determining the soundness of these weightings, administration is currently carrying out a survey of selected industry, community and government groups.

Comment

The SGAT will provide an important means for implementing the Smart Growth Strategy.  It should also enable a consistent and coordinated response by the City to major development proposals and improve clarity for development proponents.

 

The release of the draft SGAT for public comment will allow it to be scrutinised by a wide range of stakeholders and comments received should identify areas where further improvements can be made.

 

The development industry is expected to give the draft particularly close scrutiny.  In this respect, it may be noted that when the draft Smart Growth Strategy and related policy was released for comment in the latter part of last year, a number of submissions were received from industry groups, asking that the Strategy and Policy not be considered for finalisation until the draft SGAT had been released for comment.  The draft Strategy and Policy were felt to be difficult to assess given their generally broad nature, whereas the SGAT would allow them to see what the Strategy and Policy meant in more detailed, practical terms.  This approach is considered reasonable and it has therefore been decided to progress the Smart Growth Strategy, Policy and SGAT as a ‘package’ and consequently following completion of the comment period on the draft SGAT, a report would be presented to Council on the comments received on the draft SGAT, as well as the comments already received on the draft Strategy and Policy.  A recommendation would be made for finalisation of the Strategy, the Policy and SGAT.  At that time, the results of the survey regarding weightings used in the SGAT (referred to earlier) would also be available for consideration of that issue.

 

The WA Planning Commission (WAPC) is currently preparing a similar sort of assessment tool, called ‘METRIX’.  This is still only at concept stage and it is not expected to be finalised for two to three years.  While the WAPC is keen for there to be a reasonable degree of consistency across the State for this type of assessment, in a fast growth area like the City of Wanneroo, the City cannot afford to wait two to three years and the implementation of SGAT as soon as possible is considered appropriate. In many ways the City’s commitment to the implementation of sustainable Smart Growth practices through the development of the City’s Smart Growth Strategy and Smart Growth Assessment Tool will establish the City of Wanneroo as a leader in growth management within Australia and will provide a best practice example for all tiers of government in assessment of sustainable Smart Growth management.

Statutory Compliance

In respect to Structure Plans, under Clause 9.4 of DPS2, Council is required to determine whether a proposed structure plan submitted to it for approval under DPS2 is satisfactory or not.  The SGAT will be an aid for Council in determining this.

 

In respect to subdivision applications, these are referred by the WAPC to local governments for comment and recommendations.  The SGAT will similarly be an aid for the City in doing this, with it being noted that the City will need to comply with timeframes imposed by the WAPC for responding to its referrals.

Strategic Implications

The SGAT will play an important role in achieving the vision of the Strategic Plan  In order for the City to achieve its vision of being a vibrant centre of creative growth known for the quality of lifestyle choices and development patterns, which enhance sustainability Council decided to develop a comprehensive Smart Growth Strategy.

 

This strategy provides a commitment to integrate the three pillars of sustainability in a growth environment through the development of strategies underlined by the following six key Smart Growth principles:

 

1.             Lifestyle and Housing Choice

2.             Effective use of Land and Infrastructure

3.             Long Term Health of the Environment

4.             Identity, Equity and Inclusiveness

5.             Long Term Economic Health

6.             People and Government

 

The SGAT provides a means of assessing the impact of growth against the City’s strategic plan and Smart Growth Strategy.

Policy Implications

The draft SGAT incorporates current relevant Council policies.

 

As part of an implementation process for SGAT, it is likely that the proposed Smart Growth Policy will include reference to the use of SGAT as a key means of implementing the Smart Growth Strategy.

 

Financial Implications

The Syme Marmion consultancy work is funded from current budget provision.

 

Costs involved in advertising of the draft SGAT will be relatively minor and able to be funded from current budget provision.

 

Once finalised and implemented, SGAT will be able to be administered through current City Units, including the recently approved Strategic Projects Unit.

Issue

To consider a draft Business Plan for land transactions affecting Lot 118 Mindarie including establishment of a Regional (Development) Council.

Background

At the Council meeting held on 12 October 2004 a progress report was presented on key issues relating to the future development of Lot 118 Marmion Ave Mindarie.  The progress report is included as (Attachment 1) and provides the background to the current report to Council. 

 

The following resolutions were adopted at the Council meeting of 12 October 2004.

 

1.      ENDORSES the proposed Bush Forever Negotiated Planning Solution (NPS) outlined in this report and AUTHORISES the Chief Executive Officer to complete documentation for a Negotiated Planning Solution relating to Bush Forever on Lot 118 and submit the documentation to Council for formal agreement in conjunction with recommendations relating to valuations now being obtained.

2.      ENDORSES the key principles set out in the detail section of this report to guide the urban development of Lot 118.

3.      SUPPORTS the proposal to develop Lot 118 without involvement of a joint venture partner.

4.      SUPPORTS the proposal of the Chief Executive Officer to prepare a draft Deed of Agreement and/or further report to council setting out how, and under what legal structure, the owner councils should progress the intended development of Lot 118.

Detail/Comment

Following Council’s resolution the Chief Executive Officers from the seven owner Councils of Lot 118 have been involved in ongoing negotiations that will lead to the following outcomes:

 

·         A new proposed lease for the Mindarie Regional Council;

·         The finalisation of Bush Forever negotiations with the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC);

·         The development of the urban zoned land within Lot 118 for eventual sale for residential and mixed use purposes;

·         The establishment of a Regional Council as the body to undertake the development of the land; and

·         Preparation of a draft Business Plan suitable for advertising which covers the major land transaction issues relating to the development of the land.

 

MINDARIE REGIONAL COUNCIL LEASE

 

Mindarie Regional Council (MRC) has an existing lease which expires in 2011 and there is an extension option for a further 21 years. MRC have indicated they would like to exercise the option of extending the lease.

 

It is considered however, that a new lease will be more beneficial to the owners and MRC. The new lease will adjust the lease area by excising portions of land to be transferred to the WAPC as part of Bush Forever settlement with compensation payments to the joint owners, which will provide initial funding for Lot 118 development work.

 

Staff from MRC have been co-operative in negotiations for lease changes. They are looking for long-term tenure and a co-operative basis for the ongoing lease in order to secure the Tamala Park landfill operation for the longest possible time.

 

It is proposed that the new lease will provide changes as follows:

 

·         Reduction of lease area (252 hectares to 152 hectares); facilitating Bush Forever transfers.

·         Clarification of existing lease term provisions. The existing lease option of 21 years will be factored into the lease term for the new lease agreement.

·         Provision of market rent review at 5-year intervals with CPI adjustments annually.

·         Incorporation of provisions for Mindarie Regional Council and owners to work together on joint objectives particularly with respect to buffer areas that the Mindarie Regional Council requires (short term). In this respect the proposed lease terms will provide a buffer area, which would be quarantined from development for a term suitable to the owners, and for notice (Mindarie Regional Council has requested four years) to be provided to the Mindarie Regional Council withdrawing the whole or part of an area from buffer utilisation.

·         Providing greater autonomy to the Mindarie Regional Council in respect of sub leasing and licensing with retention of lease and license revenue.

·         The target completion date for Mindarie Regional Council is no later than 30 June 2005.

·         The target date for owners to facilitate land development and the completion of agreements with the WAPC is 14 June 2005.

·         The lease must be adjusted in order that the owners can complete transfer agreements with the WAPC for land excised from the lease.

 

A new draft lease based on these elements has yet to be finalized.  When completed it will be forwarded to the MRC and the owner Councils for consideration.

 

NEGOTIATED PLANNING SOLUTION

 

Lot 118 is affected by MRS zoning and the Government's Bush Forever policy. MRS reservations and Bush Forever have effectively quarantined 280 hectares of the 432-hectare Lot 118 from urban development.

 

The State Government wants to settle land transfers to secure Bush Forever land. To this end it has instigated specific Metropolitan Regional Scheme (MRS) zonings and has also proposed a Negotiated Planning Solution (NPS) with respect to Bush Forever sites 322 and 323, which affect Lot 118 Mindarie.

 

Negotiations have been proceeding with the WAPC to fix areas that will be subject of:

 

·         Payment of compensation upon transfer to WAPC

·         Residual land available for urban development by own Councils

 

It is hoped that the substantial Bush Forever landholding created by the NPS will be amalgamated into a major regional park facility incorporating the Burns Beach NPS to be managed by CALM.

 

A delineation survey has resolved the critical issue of the dividing line between residual residential zoned land and Bush Forever land west of Marmion Avenue.  It is now possible to clarify all of the areas to be incorporated in the NPS.

 

Formal notice from the WAPC has been received confirming land areas in the NPS.

 

The WAPC has commissioned valuers to prepare estimates of compensation and lawyers have been instructed to draft an agreement setting out all of the factors in the NPS, including the following:

 

·         The potential for excising areas 5, 16 and 4 from POS reservation for inclusion in a future structure plan for urban development.

·         Reacquisition rights for owners in the event that land taken is no longer required by the Government.

·         Preparedness to provide areas 19, 11 and 17 to owners as offset to compensation payable for areas 1 and 15.

·         Payment of compensation for areas 6 (part), 12 and 9 in 2005.

 

LAND DEVELOPMENT AND ESTABLISHMENT FOR A REGIONAL COUNCIL

 

Previous reports and presentations to the seven local Government owners of Lot 118 have indicated a potential urban development, which would include more than 2,000 lots and provide the owners with an ongoing positive cashflow.

 

Because the WAPC will be paying compensation for Bush Forever land taken from Lot 118, there need not be any direct contribution to development funds from any of the owner Councils. The funding requirements for development can be totally contained within sales and compensation revenue derived from the land.

 

Lot 118 is a critical piece of land in the WAPC projections for urban land releases in the northern corridor. Development of the land will feed into the efficient utilisation of local infrastructure and the viability of local businesses.

 

Following the development of Burns Beach Lot 2 to the south (approximately 1,100 lots) and Somerly immediately adjacent to the north (approximately 1,400 lots remaining), Lot 118 is the one remaining large land parcel to be developed south of Neerabup Road.

Following extensive research by the CEO Group and solicitors, it has become apparent that the logical vehicle for decision making and to provide legal status for transactions throughout a prolonged development period is a Regional Council established under the Local Government Act.

 

A Regional Council will require an Establishment Agreement setting out the way in which the Council operate. The form of the Agreement is set out in Local Government legislation. The Minister administering the Local Government Act must approve the Agreement.

 

A copy of the proposed Establishment Agreement for the ‘Tamala Park Regional Council’ (TPRC)is included as (Attachment 2). Key points in the Agreement are:

 

The regional purpose for the TPRC is:

 

a.              To undertake, in accordance with the objectives, the rezoning, subdivision, development, marketing and sale of the Land; and

b.             To carry out and do all other acts and things which are reasonably necessary for the bringing into effect of the matters referred to in paragraph (a) of this clause.

 

The objectives of the TPRC are:

 

·                To develop and improve the value of the Land;

·                To maximise, within prudent risk parameters, the financial return to the Participants;

·                To balance economic, social and environmental issues; and

·                To produce a quality development demonstrating the best urban design and development practice.

 

Representation

It is proposed that there will be 12 members from participant Councils reflecting ownership shares in Lot 118.

 

Provision would be made to adjust member numbers if the number of ownership shares changes.

 

Election of the Chairperson would be from members.  Generally, a term of 2 years will apply to the offices of member and Chairman.

 

Provision is made in the Establishment Agreement for the City of Wanneroo to have two members on the Council.  This allocation is based on our 2/12th share of ownership, and it is recommended that Council nominates these members in advance so that they can be fully advised on any matters related to the formation to the authority.

 

Each member of the Council would have one vote in accordance with the provisions of the Local Government Act relating to the establishment of Councils or Regional Councils.  No council will have a veto power, which is considered to be essential to provide for the decision-making needs of a body, which is focused on undertaking an urban development project.  The City of Wanneroo will retain its planning powers and will have a strong influence through these controls over the nature of the development being undertaken.

 


Funding and Surplus Distributions

The Agreement provides for seed funding ($13-15M est) to be transferred from the compensation payments from the WAPC to Regional Council funds.

 

Other provisions in the Agreement provide for annual contributions and other capital contributions but it is unlikely that these will be required because of the nature of the development.

 

It is proposed the Regional Council will hold sufficient revenue from land sales to cover obligations for approved plans and operational costs. The Agreement provides for distribution of any additional funds to the owners in ownership shares.

 

Land Transfers

There will be many land transfers involved in Lot 118 development. If land is retained by the seven local authority owners, it will be necessary to have extensive delegations to handle land issues and each land transfer will need to be signed on behalf of each of the Councils.

 

In consequence it is proposed that the TPRC will request transfer of the developable land to the Regional Council at a convenient time. The Establishment Agreement secures the owners interest in land transfer.

 

Withdrawal (Divestment of Ownership) Options

The Agreement provides that owners may withdraw from the Regional Council upon adequate notice. Prior to withdrawal, an Agreement must be made that secures a payment to the withdrawing Council of its residual value in the development. The mechanism for establishing the value and to ensure costing of any offset of contingent obligations, have been worked into the Agreement.

 

In the event that the TPRC is wound up, assets and liabilities will be distributed in accordance with ownership shares.

 

Life of the Regional Council

It is expected that the Regional Council will exist only so long as it is needed to effect development of Lot 118 land. This is anticipated to be a period of 8-12 years including planning phases.

 

Rates

Council Administration has insisted that the Regional Council pay a rate equivalent although this provision has not been included in the current draft of the Establishment Agreement.  Under the Local Government Act, The TPRC would be exempt from rates however, there is a strong case that a rate equivalent should be paid given the land development role of this Regional Council. 

 

Legal advice provided to the joint owner CEO’s supports our view that the TPRC should pay rates, the following advice is quoted:

 

“Firstly, the rate equivalent payment would be consistent with the rationale underlying the principles of competitive neutrality contained in the 1995 Competition Principles Agreement and the State Government’s Competition Policy Statement.

 

Secondly, the current position is that the Land is rateable (see section 6.26(2) (b)).  It would continue to be rateable while it is in the ownership of the Participants.  Apart from the presence of section 6.26(2)(c)), there is nothing in the transfer of ownership of the Land from the Participants to the TPRC that would justify a change in this position.

 

In these circumstances, in our view, there would be little difficulty in persuading a court that the Local Government Act would not preclude the TPRC from making the rates equivalent payment.

 

As a matter of law, therefore, it is open for the Participants to decide, on policy grounds, whether or not the TPRC should be required, by an appropriate provision in the Establishment Agreement, to make the rates equivalent payment.”

 

As a result of the City of Wanneroo’s insistence that the draft Establishment Agreement must contain a clause to ensure that Lot 118 continues to incur rates or a rate equivalent, the following clause has been drafted for inclusion:

 

“While any part of the land is exempt from Municipal rates an amount equivalent to rates will be paid on the exempt property on GRV for land subdivided for sale from the date of the first dealing on the Diagram of subdivision and rates will be paid on the UV for the balance of the land/”

 

It is recommended that the Council’s approval in principle of the draft Establishment Agreement is conditional upon the inclusion of this clause or such other clause that will ensure that rates or a rate equivalent in respect of the Lot 118 land will be paid to the City of Wanneroo.

 

BUSINESS PLAN

 

Attachment 3 is a business plan for major land transactions relating the Lot 118.  Under Section 3.59(2) of the Local Government Act, a Local Government is required to prepare a business plan before it:

 

a.              commences a major trading undertaking;

b.             enters into a major land transaction; or

c.              enters into a land transaction that is preparatory to entry into a major land transaction,

 

In reference to the proposals now current in respect of Lot 118 a business plan are be required in respect of the following:

 

a.              an amendment to the lease of 252 hectares of land to the MRC;

b.             a Bush Forever NPS involving transfer of land to the WAPC and payment by the Commission of compensation to the owners;

c.              establishment of a Regional Council to develop about 166 hectares of Lot 118 and potentially receive a transfer of that land from the owners; and

d.             development of part of Lot 118 with the eventual sale of residential lots to the public.

 

Minter Ellison, Lawyers, have provided advice that:

 

a.              A Business Plan is either specifically or arguably required in respect of the matters listed above.

b.             It would be prudent to prepare and advertise the Business Plan prior to formalising the Establishment Agreement for the TPRC and for the agreements to complete the other land transactions listed above.

c.              That one business plan covering all of the matters in (1) would be appropriate.

d.             That a single business plan advertised to cover the statutory obligations of all Councils would be appropriate.

 

The Business Plan could be jointly advertised by the seven Local Government owners for a period of six weeks and any submissions received by each Local Government would be considered by that Local Government. Following consideration of any submissions a Council may decide to proceed with the Business Plan (Absolute majority vote required).

 

The Business Plan refers to the New Regional Council; Lease changes; the Negotiated Planning Solution and compensation payments by the Government for Bush Forever/POS land transfer. In following the Local Government Requirement for prior approval of a Business Plan before entering into agreements on these matters each joint owner Council will need to ensure that resolutions to proceed with these matters are all made subject to a condition that the Business Plan requirements of Section 3.59 of the Act are first completed.

 

The 14 June 2005 is suggested as the date at which all joint Council Owners of Lot 118 would need to have completed all processing of the Business Plan and it would be from that date that any prior conditional approvals for Lease Changes, the NPS and the establishment Agreement would have effect.  The first meeting of the TPRC could be held in July 2005.

 

In order to progress further and specifically to make it possible to establish a new Regional Council, the following measures are required in the order in which they must occur:

 

1.             Councils resolve to advertise a Business Plan covering the NPS, change lease arrangements, the establishment of a Regional Council with the attendant land transfer actions.

2.             Preliminary approval is given to:

a.              The draft Establishment Agreement

b.             The general terms of a new lease with the MRC

c.              The NPS with the WAPC

d.             Preliminary approval to the Establishment Agreement for the Regional Council is sought from the Minister for Local Government.

3.             Councils consider any submissions made in response to advertising the Business Plan.

4.             Councils adopt the Business Plan.

5.             Councils provide final approval to the items mentioned in (2) above.

6.             The Minister for Local Government approves the Establishment Agreement and the new Regional Council.

7.             A date is set for a first meeting of the Regional Council.

 

Included in (Attachment 3) is a Gantt chart setting out timeframes for actions listed in the previous paragraph to make possible a first meeting of the new TPRC in July 2005.


Consultation

Negotiations relating to Bush Forever outcomes, the establishment of a Regional Council and a new lease with the Mindarie Regional Council are included in a Business Plan which is discussed in the comments section of the report.  This Business Plan will be subject to a public comment period of 42 days. 

 

At later stages there will be further consultation processes associated with the preparation of the Structure Plans for the future urban development.

Statutory Compliance

The preparation of a business plan in respect to agreements and land transactions affecting Lot 118 Mindarie.  The business plan has been prepared to meet the requirements of section 3.59 of the Local Government Act.

Strategic Implications

Development of Lot 118 will be consistent with each of the four goals of the City’s Strategic Plan as follows:

 

Environmental Sustainability Goal:  Conservation of environmental assets through reservation of portions of the land containing regionally significant bushland; Supporting efficient use of water, energy and other resources through incorporation of best practice urban design principles in the development (e.g water sensitive design, transit oriented design).

 

Healthy Communities Goal:  Providing a cohesive system of integrated land use planning through planning that balances built form and land use, community needs and the environment, and through supporting and encouraging the delivery and utilisation of a safe, effective transport network.

 

Economic Development Goal:  Encourage local employment and economic development through the urban design of the development (e.g promote mixed use development and a business enterprise precinct).

 

Corporate Management and Development Goal:  Manage the development to provide a maximum return on the investment to benefit the City’s ratepayers and community.

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

The planning and development of Lot 118 will involve financial implications for Council, although it should be noted that all costs and returns are shared amongst the seven owner councils according to their ownership share of the land (this City’s share is two-twelfths). 


It is also emphasised that the compensation payable to the owners under the proposed Bush Forever NPS will provide seeding capital to cover or offset initial stages of subdivisional works.  Cash flow analysis based on the owners’ earlier structure plan was that the development could achieve positive cash flow returns within two years of commencement.

Issue

To consider the feasibility of a public boat launching facility in the Jindalee, Alkimos, and Eglinton regions, as part of the early planning process for future residential subdivisions.

 

To obtain developer contributions of land or funding towards the construction of such a facility, in response to the demand created by residential subdivisions for recreational boating facilities.

Background

The City of Wanneroo has some 32 kilometres of coastline, yet only two public boat launching facilities are available - at the Mindarie and Two Rocks marinas.

 

Currently, it is not uncommon for boat owners to tow their boats 10 kilometres to launch them.

 

According to parking plans provided by Mirvac Fini a total of 160 dedicated boat trailer bays will be available to the public upon completion of the final subdivisional works in the southern precinct of the Mindarie Marina.

 

The projected growth in population in the 6030 postcode suburbs of Mindarie, Clarkson, Merriwa, and Quinns Rocks, coupled with the development of Butler, Jindalee, and Alkimos, will almost certainly create demand in excess of the 160-bay capacity available at the Mindarie Marina.

Detail

Issue

To consider requesting that the state government review the level of financial support provided to local governments in relation to graffiti management and also the penalties that can be awarded to offenders.

Background

The City of Wanneroo incurs substantial costs in removing graffiti from both the City’s assets and residential properties throughout the City of Wanneroo.
