Item 3 Public Question Time

The following questions were taken on notice at the Council meeting held on
26 April 2006:

PQ04-04/06 Ms A Hine, Dundebar Road, Wanneroo

Question 4 – Details of alteration to Wanneroo Road across to Kingsway Road

a) In relation to Woodleg Retreat, Kingsley which belongs to the City of Joondalup, has our Council had any input about alterations to Wanneroo Road across to Kingsway Road? If so, could details be supplied?

b) Is the City involved in any committee set up to discuss the changes along Wanneroo Road? If so, who is on this committee and are there minutes available?

Response by Mayor Kelly

Taken on notice.

Further response by Chief Executive Officer

Administration is currently researching this matter and will provide a written response as soon as possible.

Response by Director, Infrastructure

a) There has been no input from the City regarding the extension of Kingsway to the west of Wanneroo Road. Discussion have been held with Main Roads WA regarding the installation of traffic signals at the Wanneroo Road/Kingsway intersection in its current configuration.

b) The City is not aware of any committee.

The following questions were taken verbally at the Council meeting held on
16 May 2006:

PQ01-05/06 Mrs A Hine, Dundebar Road, Wanneroo

Question 1 – Item PD01-05/06 Proposed Amendment No. 16

Does Council believe overloading all our public services in the Landsdale area is a good move as it appears public open space has not been increased in an equitable way?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by Director Planning and Development

It is a common misconception that increased density codes translate into increased pressure on public services and public open space. If land is developed at a higher density, it may attract a smaller family unit such as those entering retirement, young professionals, single parent families etc, who’s recreational needs may not be premised on the provision of a greater amount of open space. It should be noted that the Western Australian Planning Commission’s policies do not require additional public open space to be provided according to an areas density code and that 8%-10% is provided regardless of density.

Question 2 – Works on corner of Dundebar and Wanneroo Roads

What work is being done on the corner of Dundebar and Wanneroo Roads?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by Director Planning and Development

Council approved an application for showrooms and shops next to service station.

Question 3 – Development Application DA06/0093

The application is for 2 Parin Road, Marangaroo that is near the corner of Marangaroo and Wanneroo Roads. What is the plan for this childcare centre if it goes to council and would it be a wise decision on this busy corner?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by Director Planning and Development

It is expected that the application will go to Council for determination.

Question 4 – Traffic Lights at Kingsway Road

As Council has a member on the committee could it advise as to the progress of the traffic lights at Kingsway Road?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by Director Infrastructure

Administration is not aware of such a committee, however understands that Main Roads has submitted the installation of traffic signals at this intersection for funding consideration from the Black Spot Program

Question 5 – Trees and Bricks at old Wanneroo Primary School Site

(a) Has Council any feedback on the trees in general at the old Wanneroo Primary School site?

(b) There are some bricks left at the old site would it be possible for Council to consider asking the developer to build something with these such as letterboxes for the future businesses to be on the site or perhaps a stand to put some memorabilia on?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by Director Planning and Development

(a) A Tree Management Plan was prepared as part of Council’s approval of the proposed commercial development. Council will ensure implementation of the management plan.

(b) The suggestion regarding the bricks has been forwarded to the owners of the site for their consideration.

PQ02-05/06 Mr J Buck, Kulindi Crescent, Wanneroo

Question 1 – Safer Citizens Program

What services are provided to the community through the Safer Citizens Program and how much does this cost the City?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by A/Director Community Development

The current services provided to the community through the Safer Citizens Program are:

Safer Education

A community education program which includes: Schools Safety Programs, Junior Ranger Program, Safety Education seminars to community groups, Community Fire Safety Education Days and other general education initiatives.

Safer Citizens Events

14 free community events provided each year which provide the opportunity for positive social activity to take place in public open space, and to create a greater sense of community.

Safer Places / Urban Design

Urban Design initiates and consultation relating to Public Space with the aim of improving community safety.

Ranger Services

The Safer Citizens Program is also supported by the work of Ranger Services in general patrolling.

The cost of providing the Safer Citizens Program not including the Ranger costs in 2005/06 is $460,569. It is not possible to determine an accurate costing of the Ranger contribution.

Question 2 – Employment Program

Does the City have a comprehensive plan to help generate the required employment to match the growth of the City?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by Director Planning and Development

Council does have an Employment Policy which is on the City’s website and is one of the main implementation tools for the Economic Development Strategy. The Policy requires proponents of any large-scale residential development within the City of Wanneroo to prepare a strategy to encourage employment capacity and subsequent retention within the local area. The policy will be applied at all levels of the structure planning and will form an integral part in the evaluation process of both district and local structure plans proposed for any new development within the City of Wanneroo.

Question 3 – Peat Fire Problem

What strategies is the City putting in place to make sure the peat fires do not occur again and is the City offering any form of compensation to those residents who have been affected by the smoke from those fires?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by A/Director Community Development

Peat is significant in many areas of the City, and dealing with a peat fire is constrained by logistical and environmental consideration. Due to the extent of the peat in the City of Wanneroo, it is not feasible to have a strategy in place to ensure that a peat fire does not occur again, however, the City and FESA have a number of general strategies in place to reduce the risk in the City which include:

Prevention such as with our firebreak enforcement, community fire education days, doorknocking by volunteers of high fire risk areas, school visits and web based information.

Preparedness including the City’s AWARE (All Western Australians Reducing Emergencies) Program, and emergency management planning.

Response including our partnership with FESA to deal with similar incidents, and our Volunteer Bush Fire Brigade and Rangers Brigade to respond quickly to any incidents.

Recovery Continuing to work with the community to recover such as through our Community Fire Safety Days.

The City is not offering any compensation to residents affected by smoke.

Question 4 – Rate Charges

With the recent increase in interest rates and the continued increase in fuel costs on the average family income will the City guarantee its residents and ratepayers that there will be no increase in rates for the coming financial year 2006/07?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by Director Corporate Services

It would not be financially responsible for Council to give such an undertaking.

PQ03-05/06 Mr G Mungall, PO Box 153, Quinns Rocks

Question 1– Item CD0105/06 Lighting and Playing Surfaces at Gumblossom Oval

Why are we not seeing in the projected budget plans for Gumblossom Oval the second stage of the building works?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by Director Infrastructure

Construction of Stage 2 will be subject to benefiting clubs confirming a one-third funding contribution to the project and Stage 1 is not expected to be complete until 2008/2009.

PQ04-05/06 Mr K Perry, Huntingdale Crescent, Connolly

Question 1– Item CD0105/06 Lighting and Playing Surfaces at Gumblossom Oval

The Soccer Club has received many complaints and much abuse because people believed that we were the instigators of the removal of trees and shrubs around Gumblossom Oval. What steps will be taken by Council to ensure that the local residents are adequately informed on any future works carried out at Gumblossom Reserve?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by Director Infrastructure

Community consultation will be undertaken in accordance with the City’s Community Consultation Policy. A consultation strategy will be developed for each stage for endorsement of the Community Consultation Review Panel.

PQ05-05/06 Mr R Witlock, Beverley Crescent, Quinns Rocks

Question 1– Item CD0105/06 Lighting and Playing Surfaces at Gumblossom Oval

Why was the decision taken to remove the cap rock that was found when levelling started? Surely it would have been cheaper to have laid sand over it?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by Director Infrastructure

The earthworks at Gumblossom Reserve were undertaken to increase the size of the level western area and to provide adjacent pad areas for a proposed clubroom and car park. The size of the level western area has been increased to accommodate two senior sized soccer pitches. Prior to the works the area could only cater for two junior sized soccer pitches.

The slope of the existing pitches was extended into the embankment in the southeast corner of this area, with excavation up to 1.6m deep. Some cap rock was encountered and removed. If a decision had been taken to leave the cap rock in-situ, covered with fill, then the soccer pitches would have needed complete reconstruction at a higher level. The cost of the additional earthworks (importation of fill material), re-turfing and new reticulation system would have been beyond the scope and budget of the project.

Such larger scale works would also have inconvenienced sporting clubs as the playing areas would have been out of use for an extended period

PQ06-05/06 Ms J Jolly, Malbay Court, Mindarie

Question 1– Item CD0105/06 Lighting and Playing Surfaces at Gumblossom Oval

Can Council please explain why they took the decision to delay the building of the changing rooms at Gumblossom Oval to take advantage of the CSRFF award? Would it have not been more prudent to have built the first stage sooner knowing full well that they could still use the grant to pay for the second stage?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by A/Director Community Development and Director Infrastructure

Construction of the Stage 1 change rooms was subject to a successful application to the Department of Sport and Recreation’s CSRFF grants. CSRFF funding is not transferable to Stage 2 of the development, as this would need to be a separate application. The award for Stage 2 would be considerably reduced due to the social nature of the clubroom Stage 2 and commencement of Stage 2 would be subject to benefiting clubs contributing one-third of the project cost.

PQ07-05/06 Mr G Kirkpatrick, Kinross Drive, Kinross

Question 1– Item CD0105/06 Lighting and Playing Surfaces at Gumblossom Oval

Can Council please explain why lighting was provided to Ridgeway Oval when the clubs that are allocated at that active sports area do not adequately use them? It is believed that the Little Athletics only use the lights four weeks out of the year and the Aussie Rules Football Club generally only two nights a week.

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by A/Director Community Development

Floodlighting has been installed at Ridgewood as a part of the Ridgewood Reserve re-development. The reserve is currently used five nights a week during the winter season, including use by the Quinns Districts Junior Football Club, Quinns Districts Amateur Football Club and the Jacks Soccer Club.

PQ08-05/06 Mr M Webb, Hubble Parkway, Clarkson

Question 1– Item CD0105/06 Lighting and Playing Surfaces at Gumblossom Oval

Can Council please explain what happened to the money that was allocated to have the lights installed and the car park completed in the financial year 2004/05 at Gumblossom and why hasn’t that money been used in this year’s budgeted works?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by Director Infrastructure

Funds were allocated in the 2004/2005 budget for the extension of the Gumblossom Community Centre car park. This project was delayed by the need to address environmental issues raised within the Master Planning process and the approval process for a clearing permit from the Department of Environment. The funds were carried forward to the 2005/2006 budget and construction works, including drainage and lighting upgrade, are currently in progress.

PQ09-05/06 Mr P Abbott, Wishaw Loop, Kinross

Question 1– Item CD0105/06 Lighting and Playing Surfaces at Gumblossom Oval

Why have Council started works on a second car park at Gumblossom when the original car park that was started to be developed up to 12 months ago is still in a state of disrepair and has a safety issue as well with that?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by Director Infrastructure

Works have started on the extension of the existing car park to provide much needed parking capacity for the Gumblossom Community Centre, as the project was delayed by the need to address environmental issues raised within the Master Planning process and the approval process for a clearing permit from the Department of Environment.

The footprint for the future car park and change rooms was cleared when the initial earthworks undertaken on the reserve expansions was in progress. This area was covered with mulch as an interim measure. The City does not consider this area to be unsafe.

PQ10-05/06 Mr I Clendenning, Harbour Town Heights, Connolly

Question 1– Item CD0105/06 Lighting and Playing Surfaces at Gumblossom Oval

Would the Council please detail any plans to refurbish reticulation and the levelling and resurfacing of all of the ovals at Gumblossom in line with the independent audit of the playing surfaces that was carried out in 2005?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by Director Infrastructure

Installation of a new bore and upgrade of the electrical cabinet is scheduled to be undertaken in 2006/2007, subject to Council endorsement of the City’s Five Year Infrastructure Works Programme.

Upgrade of the irrigation system and playing surface, including reworking of the soil profile, removal of limestone and turf replacement is budgeted to occur over 2007/08 and 2008/09, subject to Council endorsement of the City’s Five Year Infrastructure Works Programme

All recommendations listed in the abovementioned report have either been addressed or are programmed to occur and this work has been undertaken in full consultation with the club. This includes:

· Addressing areas of damaged or inferior turf.

· Using a vibrating roller to consolidate the surface of the pitches.

· Application of localised top dressing.

· Programmed works on the south western and south eastern corners of the western pitch to occur in December 2006 to accommodate the club’s use of the reserve.

· Programmed works, as identified above, to address surface levels issues.

· Removal of exposed limestone debris.

In addition to this, the following work has been undertaken on the eastern reserve:

· Application of crumb rubber to assist in maintaining the integrity of the turf.

· Additional top dressing.

· Additional fertiliser application.

· Steam weed control.

· Application of different mowing techniques to assist in managing surface level issues.

· Undertaking of minor block turfing, top dressing and fertilising of damage caused by the club in using poison in their line marking paint.

PQ11-05/06 Mr C McLean, Haskell Gardens, Clarkson

Question 1– Item CD0105/06 Lighting and Playing Surfaces at Gumblossom Oval

How much over budget did the cost of levelling the building area and car park area at Gumblossom oval go?

Response by Deputy Mayor

Taken on notice.

Response by Director Infrastructure

The cost of work undertaken for the extension to sporting grounds to provide a total of three senior soccer pitches, incorporating earth works for the future building/car park, was $334,260. The budget allocation for these works was $320,380.

If permission is not granted for participation in publicity and promotion, this will not impede a nomination in any way.

Individual Programs

Student Citizenship Award

Nomination Procedure

Nominations are invited via advertising and promotion to all schools within the City of Wanneroo commencing in the last week of July, continuing until the first week of September. Schools are asked to nominate one male and one female student on the official nomination form by the final closing date.

The nominated students should be those that:

· Have made a significant positive contribution to the local community,

· Possess leadership qualities,

· Are an active member of the local community, and

· Have a commitment to enhancing their local community.

If a school does not have a deserving male and female student that they would like to nominate to receive this prestigious award, they may choose to nominate two students of the same sex, or just one deserving student.

Entitlements

Awards are presented at the school’s graduation ceremony or end of year assembly (whichever is applicable) and recipients of this award receive a framed certificate and an engraved medallion. Recipients of this award are automatically nominated for the City of Wanneroo Australia Day Youth Award.

Student Scholarship

Nomination Procedure

Nominations are invited via advertising and promotion within the government secondary schools in the City of Wanneroo. Students nominate themselves using the official application form, for a Student Scholarship to support them in their studies for the following year. These nominations are to be received by the school by the designated closing date then forwarded on to the coordinator of the program at the City of Wanneroo with appropriate comments and recommendations from the staff of the school. Teachers will be encouraged to support students in the application process and promote the opportunity to relevant students.

Nominations can be received by students in Year 9, Year 10 or Year 11 for a scholarship to support the costs of their studies in the following school year in the following categories:

Individuals are only eligible to receive support once per financial year. Alicia has already received support for another event in the current 2005/2006 financial year and is therefore ineligible for support for this event.
2.	Clarkson Little Athletics	International Track and Field Competition to be held in Singapore on 2 July 2006.	APPROVE a donation of $500.00 to Clarkson Little Athletics Club to support Jacob Pritchard in his participation in International Track and Field Competition to be held in Singapore on 2 July 2006.	This request satisfies the criteria of the policy.
3.	Basketball Western Australia	U18 National Championships in Basketball held in South Australia from the 8-14 July 2006.	APPROVE a donation of $200.00 to Basketball Western Australia to support Gabriella Clayton in her participation in the U18 National Championships in Basketball held in South Australia from the 8-14 July 2006.

Individuals are only eligible to receive support once per financial year.

5.

NOT APPROVE a donation to the Lord Mayor’s Distress Relief Fund.

NOT APPROVE a donation request of $300.00 from the St Anthony’s Association Wanneroo for a waiver of fees for the hire of the Banksia Room for the St Anthony’s Dinner Dance to be held on 10 June 2006.	The policy states that funding requests will not be supported where an entry fee is being charged. Therefore this request cannot be supported.
