PROCEDURE FOR FULL COUNCIL BRIEFING
PRINCIPLES
A Council Briefing occurs a week prior to the Ordinary Council Meeting and provides an opportunity for Elected Members to ask questions and clarify issues relevant to the specific agenda items before council. The briefing is not a decision-making forum and the Council has no power to make decisions. The briefing session will not be used, except in an emergency, as a venue or forum through which to invoke the requirements of the Local Government Act 1995 and call a special meeting of Council.
In order to ensure full transparency the meetings will be open to the public to observe the process. Where matters are of a confidential nature, they will be deferred to the conclusion of the briefing and at that point, the briefing session closed to the public. The reports provided are the Officers’ professional opinions. While it is acknowledged that members may raise issues that have not been considered in the formulation of the report and recommendation, it is a basic principle that as part of the briefing sessions Elected Members cannot direct Officers to change their reports or recommendations.
PROCESS
The briefing session will commence at 6.00 pm and will be chaired by the Mayor or in his/her absence the Deputy Mayor. In the absence of both, Councillors will elect a chairperson from amongst those present. In general, Standing Orders will apply, EXCEPT THAT Members may speak more than once on any item, there is no moving or seconding items, Officers will address the members and the order of business will be as follows:-
Members of the public present may observe the process and there is an opportunity at the conclusion of the briefing for a public question time where members may ask questions (no statements) relating only to the business on the agenda. The agenda will take the form of:
Ø Attendance and Apologies
Ø Declarations of Interest
Ø Reports for discussion
Ø Tabled Items
Ø Public Question Time
Ø Closure
Where an interest is involved in relation to an item, the same procedure which applies to Ordinary Council meetings will apply. It is a breach of the City’s Code of Conduct for an interest to not be declared. The briefing will consider items on the agenda only and proceed to deal with each item as they appear. The process will be for the Mayor to call each item number in sequence and ask for questions. Where there are no questions regarding the item, the briefing will proceed to the next item.
AGENDA CONTENTS
While every endeavour is made to ensure that all items to be presented to Council at the Ordinary Council Meeting are included in the briefing papers, it should be noted that there will be occasions when, due to necessity, items will not be ready in time for the briefing session and will go straight to the Full Council agenda as a matter for decision. Further, there will be occasions when items are TABLED at the briefing rather than the full report being provided in advance. In these instances, staff will endeavour to include the item on the agenda as a late item, noting that a report will be tabled at the agenda briefing session.
AGENDA DISTRIBUTION
The Council Briefing agenda will be distributed to Elected Members on the FRIDAY prior to the Council Briefing session. Copies will be made available to the libraries and the Internet for interested members of the public. Spare briefing papers will be available at the briefing session for interested members of the public.
DEPUTATIONS
Deputations will generally not be heard prior to the Council Briefing session and are reserved for prior to the Ordinary Council meeting.
RECORD OF BRIEFING
The formal record of the Council Briefing session will be limited to notes regarding any agreed action to be taken by staff or Elected Members. No recommendations will be included and the notes will be retained for reference and are not distributed to Elected Members or the public.
LOCATION
The Council Briefing session will take place in the Council Chamber in the Civic Centre.

Issue
To consider proposed Local Planning Policy 4.5 – Subdivisional Retaining Walls (LPP 4.5) for consent to advertise for public comment, in accordance with Part 8.11 of District Planning Scheme No. 2 (DPS 2). A copy of LPP 4.5 is included as Attachment 1.
Background
Nearly all ‘greenfields’ subdivisions in the City of Wanneroo incorporate some element of retaining for new lots, due to factors such as existing topography, multiplicity of surrounding landownership, and the need to coordinate finished road levels with existing surrounding roads. In those instances, Administration strives to achieve negotiated outcomes with the relevant subdividers, to reduce the extent and height of retaining walls as far as practicable. Typically, these negotiations occur after the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) has granted its subdivision approval, but before the City issues its ‘clearance’ of the applicable engineering subdivision condition(s). The reason for this is that development works undertaken as part of a subdivision approval (such as earthworks, retaining walls and construction of roads etc) can occur without the need for separate planning approval.
The abovementioned approach was challenged in 2010 in State Administrative Tribunal (SAT) case DR207 of 2010 (Alessi vs City of Wanneroo). This case involved retaining walls over 4.0 metres in height, which were approved by Council and later contested by an adjoining landowner (Alessi).
The City’s existing ‘Retaining Walls’ policy (refer Attachment 2), requires retaining walls (that abut land in different ownership) to be assessed in accordance with the Residential Design Codes of WA (R-Codes). The R-Codes primarily relate to dwelling construction and associated built form provisions, but do not apply to broad acre subdivisional retaining wall heights. In the ‘Alessi’ case, the Minister determined on advice from SAT that a separate planning approval under the City’s DPS 2 was not required for subdivisional retaining walls.
Whilst this finding supported the City’s approach and decision, the case highlighted the need for the City to provide improved guidance for the assessment of subdivision retaining wall heights, rather than relying on the design provisions of the R-Codes when planning approval under DPS 2 is not even required.
Detail
LPP 4.5 is intended to replace the City’s existing ‘Retaining Walls’ policy, which was first implemented in 1999 and was last reviewed in 2004. Unfortunately this existing policy fails to provide any meaningful guidance in determining appropriate retaining wall heights when proposed as subdivisional works.
The following objectives have been developed to ensure an acceptable, yet flexible standard applies to subdivisional retaining walls:
1. Encourage the provision of level residential building sites that can be effectively serviced.
2. Retain the natural topographic features of the locality by minimising the need to import or export large quantities of fill.
3. Minimise the need for large retaining walls as part of dwelling construction.
4. Coordinate subdivisional levels with adjoining landholdings, road reserves, natural features and public open space.
5. Minimise the height and impact of subdivisional retaining walls located on the boundary of land under separate ownership.
6. Minimise the height of subdivisional retaining walls visible from a public space (road reserve, recreation reserve) and/or abutting land in separate ownership.
Proposed LPP 4.5 provides clear guidance on the appropriateness of different retaining wall heights under various circumstances and subject to certain conditions. This guidance aims to minimise the extent of retaining walls that are visible from public spaces such as road reserves and public open space and promotes the retention of soil within the proposed lots and along rear and side boundaries, where the retaining walls will ultimately be screened from public view by the future construction of a dwelling.
The policy includes Table 1, which includes a summary of the acceptable heights, performance criteria for variations to the acceptable heights and unacceptable criteria.
A maximum retaining wall height of 1.5 metre is proposed as being acceptable in the following circumstances:
· Walls abutting land in different ownership.
· Walls abutting road reserves.
· Walls abutting public open space.
· Walls abutting other public areas (drainage reserves, community purpose sites, pedestrian walkways etc).
A maximum retaining wall height of 3.0 metres is proposed as being acceptable for internal subdivision retaining walls, as this provides the greatest opportunity to accommodate level differences, whilst minimising the visible extent of larger retaining walls on adjacent roads.
Such walls would be acceptable along the rear boundary and behind the front setback line of side boundaries (note that this height would apply where the wall abuts Crown land or land in a different ownership).
Walls exceeding the ‘acceptable’ height will still be required from time to time to facilitate the subdivision of undulating land, the servicing of proposed lots or to achieve desirable built form outcomes reflective of the local character. The draft LPP 4.5 incorporates provisions for dealing with such walls and sets out performance criteria, which will need to be considered.
LPP 4.5 also incorporates a number of retaining wall criteria that are unacceptable unless exceptional circumstances exist. These include:
· Walls greater than 4.0 metres in height.
· Walls greater than the ‘acceptable height’ that in the City’s opinion do not satisfy the applicable criteria for variations in Table 1 ‘Variations of Acceptable standards’.
· Walls greater than 2.5 metres in height that abut land under separate ownership, where an objection has been received from that land owner.
Consultation
In accordance with Part 8.11 of DPS 2, it is necessary to advertise a draft policy for public comment for a period of not less than 21 days. In this instance, the policy mainly impacts on the development industry and it is suggested that an extended advertising period of 35 days should be prescribed to enable the industry to fully consider the draft LPP 4.5 and provide submissions.
Advertising would be undertaken in the following manner:
· Advertisement in a local newspaper for two consecutive weeks;
· Display on the City’s website; and
· Referral in writing to the Urban Development Institute of Australia (WA), major land developers and consulting engineers (subdivision) operating in the City.
Comment
The current ‘Retaining Walls’ policy does not provide Administration, the development industry or members of the public with adequate guidance in determining the suitability of retaining wall heights proposed as part of subdivision. The current policy focuses on ‘authorising’ the City’s Engineer to approve retaining walls up to three (3.0) metres in height and the City’s Building Surveyor to issue a Building Licence where the application complies with:
1. An approval to Commence Development.
2. The Residential Design Codes of WA where applicable, or
3. A subdivisional Retaining Wall approved by the City’s Engineer.
The current policy also requires subdivision retaining walls on a common property boundary and within 10 metres of a dwelling to be determined in accordance with the Residential Design Codes of Western Australia (R-Codes).
The review of the policy has removed the above delegation criteria and only includes appropriate planning criteria for determining retaining wall heights proposed as subdivisional works in accordance with the provisions of draft LPP 4.5.
Statutory Compliance
In accordance with Clause 8.11.3.1(a) of DPS 2, Council may resolve to prepare and adopt a local planning policy to apply to any matter related to planning and development of the district. A draft policy must be advertised for public comment for a period of not less than 21 days after which time it is to be reviewed in the context of any submissions received. Council shall then resolve to either adopt the draft policy (with or without modifications) or not proceed with the draft policy.
Strategic Implications
The proposal accords with the following Outcome Objective of the City’s Strategic Plan 2006 – 2021:
“1 Environment
1.4 Improve the quality of the built environment”
Policy Implications
Draft LPP 4.5 – ‘Subdivisional Retaining Walls’, will supersede the current ‘Retaining Walls’ policy and establish standards for the assessment and determination of applications for subdivisional retaining walls.
The draft LPP 4.5 will guide the City in assessing detailed subdivision drawings submitted in accordance with Section 170 of the Planning and Development Act 2005.
Financial Implications
The cost of advertising the draft policy is estimated to be $500, which can be met from the
Planning and Sustainability Directorate operational budget.

Background
The draft CSP 81 was lodged with the City by Taylor Burrell Barnett (TBB), on behalf of Landcorp, on 2 May 2011. The Structure Plan area comprises 1.1052 hectares of land encompassing Lots 478 Prestige Parade and 479 Vision Street, Wangara. The subject lots are located on the corner of Gnangara Road and Prestige Parade, bound by Gnangara Road to the south, industrial zoned land to the west, north and south; and rural zoned land to the north east (refer Attachment 1).
The land is zoned Industrial under the Metropolitan Region Scheme (MRS) and Centre under District Planning Scheme No. 2 (DPS 2).
On 5 August 2011, following the lodgement of draft CSP 81 by TBB, the Director Planning and Sustainability forwarded a memorandum to all Elected Members, providing the opportunity for members to request referral of the proposal to Council for consent to advertise. No such requests were received and advertising of draft CSP 81 subsequently commenced in accordance with Clause 9.5 of DPS 2 on 12 August 2011 for a period of 42 days, closing on 4 October 2011.
Following advertising of draft CSP 81, submissions were collated and a report on the matter was presented for discussion at the 6 December 2011 Council Briefing Session and included on the agenda for the 13 December 2011 Council Meeting for determination. However, the item was withdrawn from the scheduled Council Meeting at the request of the applicant in order to further address concerns relating to land use permissibility within the CSP 81 area. Administration has since undertaken further consultation with the applicant and the landowner to arrive at a revised CSP 81.
Detail
Draft CSP 81 has been prepared in order to satisfy the requirements of the ‘Centre’ zone under DPS 2 and to facilitate a commercial centre to service employees in the Wangara and Landsdale Industrial Estates.
The key elements of the draft CSP 81 are as follows:
· Lot 478 is zoned ‘Business’ and Lot 479 is zoned ‘Commercial’;
· No retail uses are to be permitted on Lot 478, while a maximum of 1,750m2 NLA retail floorspace would be permitted on Lot 479; and
· Land use permissibility for Lots 478 and 479 has been varied from the Zoning Table in DPS 2.
Attachment 2 contains the advertised version of the Part 1 Statutory Section of draft CSP 81, including the draft Structure Plan Map.
Consultation
Seven submissions were received during advertising of draft CSP 81; five of which raised no objection to the proposal and two which expressed specific concerns with the proposal. A summary of all submissions received, together with Administration’s response to each is included as Attachment 3.
In accordance with the City’s Local Planning Policy 4.2 – Structure Planning (LPP 4.2), Administration also conducted its assessment of draft CSP 81 during the advertising period. Administration’s recommended modifications arising from its assessment are included as Attachment 4.
The main issues identified in Administration’s assessment and the submissions received relate to:
· Permissibility of uses and possible land use conflicts with the surrounding industrial area; and
· Traffic impacts on the surrounding road networks.
A more detailed discussion of the abovementioned issues is provided in the Comment section of this report.
Comment
Permissibility of Uses and Land Use Conflicts
Draft CSP 81 proposes to zone the subject lots ‘Commercial’ and ‘Business’, and to apply the land use permissibility of these zones. The advertised version of CSP 81 proposed a number of land use controls (refer Attachment 2). However a number of the land uses initially proposed were considered by Administration to be sensitive to and potentially incompatible with the surrounding ‘General Industrial’ zoned area.
The Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) has prepared a Guidance Statement that recommends separation distances between industrial and sensitive land uses, to avoid conflicts between incompatible land uses.
Considering the Wangara area has historically been a general industrial area, it is of primary importance that the land use permissibility proposed by CSP 81 does not prejudice the existing and future development of the adjoining General Industrial Zone.
Lots 78 & 80 Gnangara Road, Landsdale, which are adjacent to the CSP 81 area, have approval for and are currently operating as ‘concrete batching plants’, while Lot 79 Attwell Street, Landsdale, has an approval to be used for and is currently operating as a ‘waste processing and transfer facility’. Both of these uses could potentially impact upon sensitive land uses located in CSP 81.
Under the EPA’s Guidance Statement, the separation distance for a ‘concrete batching plant’ is between 300-500m and is the shortest distance measured from the boundary of an area used for an industrial land use and the boundary of an area used by a sensitive land use. The CSP 81 area is located completely within this recommended separation distance from the ‘concrete batching plants’ operating on Lots 78 & 80 Gnangara Road, Landsdale. Attachment 5 shows the ‘Centre’ zoned land subject of CSP 81 and the surrounding ‘General Industrial’ zoned land. A ‘concrete batching plant’ use class is a discretionary ‘D’ use in the ‘General Industrial’ zone, together with other potentially hazardous industrial uses. This reinforces the industrial nature of the surrounding area, the potential for hazardous industrial land uses to impact upon the CSP 81 area and the need to ensure CSP 81 does not allow sensitive land uses or development that would be impacted upon by existing adjacent industrial operations or preclude ‘General Industrial’ development from occurring in the surrounding area in the future.
Under the EPA’s Guidance Statement, sensitive land use is defined as:
‘Sensitive land use – land use sensitive to emissions from industry and infrastructure. Sensitive land uses include residential development, hospitals, hotels, motels, hostels, caravan parks, schools, nursing homes, child care facilities, shopping centres, playgrounds and some public buildings. Some commercial, institutional and industrial land uses which require high levels of amenity or are sensitive to particular emissions may also be considered “sensitive land uses”. Examples include some retail outlets, offices and training centres, and some types of storage and manufacturing.’
Similarly, under DPS 2, a sensitive use is defined as:
‘Sensitive Use: means any use in which the people involved in that use may have reason to object to noise, dust, odour and other impacts which may arise from rural resource operations and includes, but is not limited to, residential, hospitals, schools, shops and all public establishments where food and drink is consumed.’
Though it is recognised that the definition of sensitive use under DPS 2 makes reference to ‘rural resource operations’ only, it (together with the EPA’s definition for sensitive land use) does serve to provide guidance on land use types that are considered sensitive.
Modifications to Land Use Permissibility
In the CSP 81 report that was presented at the 6 December 2011 Council Briefing Session, Administration recommended that the permissibility of a number of sensitive land uses (as defined under the EPA’s Guidance Statement and DPS 2) be amended in CSP 81 in order to reduce the potential impact and conflict with the surrounding ‘General Industrial’ area. In this way, sensitive land uses under CSP 81 were designated as either ‘A’ uses (meaning a use that is prohibited until advertising has been undertaken and Council has exercised its discretion to otherwise approve the use) or ‘X’ uses (meaning a prohibited land use). Sensitive land uses designated as ‘A’ uses included:
· Civic Building
· Consulting Room
· Drive-Through Food Outlet
· Education Establishment
· Lunch Bar
· Medical Centre
· Office
· Restaurant
· Shop
· Supermarket
· Take-Away Food Outlet
· Tavern
· Veterinary Consulting Room
Sensitive land uses designated as ‘X’ uses included:
· Child Care Centre
· Hospital
It is the land uses that were designated ‘A’ uses by Administration that were the subject of subsequent discussions and a meeting between Administration and the landowner and applicant. As a result of these discussions it was concluded that sensitive land uses would be better controlled through a ‘D’ use designation rather than an ‘A’ use designation requiring advertising. A ‘D’ use means a land use that is prohibited unless the Council has exercised its discretion to otherwise approve the use. In considering a ‘D’ use, Council may also choose to advertise that use for public comment before making its determination. As a result, land uses considered to be sensitive uses under CSP 81 (and previously recommended to Council in December 2011 as ‘A’ uses) are now proposed to be designated as either ‘D’ or ‘X’ uses, with the exception of ‘Office’, which is designated as a ‘P’ use.
With respect to premises where food and drink is sold or consumed, a ‘lunch bar’ is designated a ‘D’ use in the ‘General Industrial’ zone under DPS 2. On this basis, sensitive land uses where food and drink is sold or consumed likewise have been designated a ‘D’ use under CSP 81. Land uses where food and drink is sold or consumed include ‘drive-through food outlet’, ‘lunch bar’, ‘restaurant’, ‘shop’, ‘supermarket’, ‘take-away food outlet’ and ‘tavern’. ‘Consulting room’, ‘medical centre’, ‘veterinary consulting room’ and ‘educational establishment’ have been designated ‘D’ use permissibility in CSP 81 also, as they are land uses that Administration considers to be potentially sensitive to particular emissions from industry and discretion is required to be exercised in Council granting its approval.
Sensitive land uses that are prohibited in CSP 81 include ‘hospital’ and ‘child care centre’, as they are particularly sensitive to potential industry emissions and thus considered inappropriate and incompatible with the surrounding ‘General Industrial’ zoned land. ‘Office’ is identified in the EPA’s Guidance Statement as a potentially sensitive land use. However, Administration does not consider ‘Office’ to be a sensitive land use, given that many, if not all, nearby businesses operating in the ‘General Industrial’ zone will typically include an office component. Further, an ‘Office’ is not considered particularly sensitive to industrial emissions, such as noise and dust. As such, ‘Office’ and similarly ‘Bank’ have been designated ‘P’ (permitted) uses in the CSP 81 area; consistent with DPS 2 land use permissibility for ‘office’ and ‘bank’ in the ‘Commercial’ and ‘Business’ zones. A comparison between the permissibility of land uses in the ‘Business’ and ‘Commercial’ zones under DPS 2 and the land use permissibility now proposed by Administration (and agreed by the proponent) for revised CSP 81 is included in Attachment 6. Included as Attachment 7 is Administration’s revised CSP 81 (Part 1 – Statutory Section) showing tracked changes over the previously advertised version of the structure plan.
Traffic Impacts on the Surrounding Road Networks
A submission by the Department of Transport (DoT) raised the issue that the rezoning of Lot 478 Prestige Parade to ‘Business’ and Lot 479 Vision Street to ‘Commercial’ would result in a significant increase in traffic movements and impact the surrounding road network. Administration considers that development of the two subject lots within the CSP area is unlikely to have any significant traffic impacts on the surrounding road network, given that vehicle access to and from the subject lots, and consideration of any potential effects that the development of the CSP area may have on the traffic movements of the surrounding road network, can be addressed by a detailed area plan (DAP) and through the development assessment process. At that more detailed stage of the planning process, when the specific land uses are proposed, a traffic impact assessment can be required if necessary.
Technical Appendices
The City’s LPP 4.2: Structure Planning (LPP 4.2) requires the lodgement of Part 3 – Technical Supporting Documentation for a centre structure plan. This part of the structure plan is required to contain a number of technical reports, including the following:
· Local Environmental Impact Assessment and Management Strategy;
· Local Water Management Strategy;
· Local Engineering Infrastructure Report;
· Local Transport Strategy;
· Local Community Development Strategy; and
· Local Heritage Strategy.
These technical reports have not been included as part of the Part 3 lodged, as required under LPP 4.2. The CSP 81 area forms part of the broader Agreed Structure Plan No. 10 – East Wanneroo Cell 8 and adjoining lots to its south have already been subdivided and developed. As such, matters ordinarily dealt with by these strategies and reports have previously been addressed through earlier structure planning, scheme amendment and subdivision processes. In light of this and together with the limited extent of the structure plan, Administration considers that these reports are not required to be provided as part of this structure plan proposal.
Conclusion
Lots 478 Prestige Parade and 479 Vision Street, Wangara are zoned ‘Centre’ under DPS 2. In accordance with the provisions of DPS 2, Council may require a structure plan as a prerequisite to subdivision and development in the Centre zone. Draft CSP 81 has thus been prepared for the subject lots and submitted for the City’s consideration and approval.
Draft CSP 81 is considered to be satisfactory for final approval by the City, subject to modifications as discussed above and depicted in Administration’s tracked changes version of the Part 1 – Statutory Section of the draft CSP, included as Attachment 7. These modifications incorporate all of Administration’s recommended changes to the land use permissibilities for CSP 81.
Statutory Compliance
This Structure Plan has been processed in accordance with the requirements of DPS 2. Clause 9.6.1 of DPS 2 provides that following advertisement of a Structure Plan, Council may refuse to adopt the Structure Plan or resolve that the Structure Plan is satisfactory with or without modifications. It is recommended that draft CSP 81 be approved subject to the modifications recommended in Attachments 3 and 4, as included in Attachment 7 of this report.
Strategic Implications
The proposal accords with the following Outcome Objective of the City’s Strategic Plan 2006 – 2021:
“3 Economic
3.1 Create strategic shifts in job markets to meet future needs and demands”
Policy Implications
The proposal has been processed in accordance with the City’s Local Planning Policy 4.2 – Structure Planning.

Draft LSP 57 Zoning |
Residential R20/30 |
Background
Council, at its meeting on 30 June 2009, resolved to adopt draft LSP 57 (Item PS09-06/09). Draft LSP 57, among other matters, depicts a portion of “Public Open Space (POS) 12” and a portion of the proposed 18-metre (m) wide Higher Order Access Street (road) entirely on Lot 165, Kingsway, Landsdale. The extent of POS proposed on Lot 165 is 14,495m2.
On 24 August 2010, the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) adopted draft LSP 57 subject to a number of modifications. Council, at its meeting of 16 November 2010, resolved to not agree to the draft LSP 57 as adopted by the WAPC mainly due to the modification requiring the pedestrian access ways between Cell 9 and East Wanneroo Cell 5 (Landsdale Gardens Estate), to be replaced with vehicular access (Item PS02-11.10).
Following Council’s decision of 16 November 2010, the owners of Lot 165 Kingsway, under sub-clause 9.12.3 of the District Planning Scheme No. 2 (DPS 2), appealed to the State Administrative Tribunal (SAT) requesting a review of the Council’s decision to locate the POS area and a portion of the 18m wide road entirely on their property. Attachment 1 contains an extract of draft LSP 57 depicting the POS on Lot 165 and the 18m wide road on its western and southern boundary. Lot 165 contains a residence and its appurtenant uses. At the SAT’s invitation, Council reconsidered the matter at its meeting of 5 April 2011 and resolved to defer its decision to enable a review of the options on the location of the POS area (Item CR01-04/11).
On 2 May 2011, Greg Rowe and Associates, representing the owners of Lot 165 Kingsway, Landsdale, submitted an application to the City requesting an amendment to draft LSP 57. The proposed amendment not only related to Lot 165, but also to the adjoining Lots 163 and 164 Kingsway, Landsdale. The details of the proposal are as follows:
1. To modify the road layout by moving a portion of the 18m wide road entirely on Lot 164 along its eastern boundary;
2. To reduce the extent of POS on Lot 165 from 14,498m2 to 10,687m2 by excluding the area occupied by the existing residence and its immediate surrounds;
3. The draft LSP 57 makes provision for a POS area of 3,793m2 on Lot 163, which forms part of “POS 11”. The total extent of ‘POS 11’ is 5,814m2 and includes a part of Lot 128 Kingsway. No POS is proposed on Lot 164. It is proposed to provide an additional POS of 1,049m2 on Lot 163 and a new POS area of 2,762m2 on Lot 164 in order to compensate for the POS area deleted from Lot 165. The additional POS equates to 3,811m2 (14,498m2 - 10,687m2); and
4. To zone the northern portion of Lot 165 measuring 7,781m2 in area (accommodating the existing residence and its immediate surrounds) as ‘Residential’ with a density coding of R20/30.
Attachment 2 contains a map depicting the proposed amendment and a concept plan of the proposed residential area by proposing ten (10) R20 lots.
On 2 June 2011, the Director, Planning and Sustainability (DPS) forwarded a memorandum to all Elected Members, providing the opportunity for members to request referral of the proposal to Council for consent to advertise. No such requests were received and, as such, advertising of the amendment proposal commenced on 24 June 2011 in accordance with Clause 9.5 of DPS 2.
The Amendment was advertised for public comment for a period of 42 days by means of an on-site sign, a notice on the City’s website and letters to the affected and adjoining landowners. The submission period commenced on 24 June and closed on 5 August 2011. The City received 19 submissions of which 18 supported the proposal and one from the owners of Lot 164 Kingsway, Landsdale, raising objections to the proposal. The City also received a 97-signature petition supporting the amendment proposal tabled by Cr Treby at the 23 August 2011 Council meeting with a further 15-signature petition supporting the proposal presented by Cr Blencowe at the same meeting.
The main issues raised by the objectors are as follows:
· How would the proposed relocation of the 18m wide road entirely on Lot 164 Kingsway benefit the owners of Lot 164?
· Strong reservation about the POS, which has now been allocated to the northern portion of their land. What are the cost sharing arrangements between all participating landowners?
· In the event the road is planned and constructed on their property, how would they be compensated for the loss of lots?
A summary of the submissions and Administration’s responses are contained in Attachment 3.
As the owners of Lots 164 and 165 were not in favour of locating a portion of the 18m wide road within their land, Administration proposed an alternative proposal as shown in Attachment 4. On 4 October 2011, the DPS, under delegated authority considered Administration’s alternative proposal and resolved to readvertise it inviting comments only from the owners of Lots 164 and 165 Kingsway, Landsdale and from the Public Transport Authority (PTA) and the Department of Education (DoE). As the 18m wide road was identified as a Bus route, it was necessary to seek the PTA’s comments.
On 11 October 2011, the DPS advised Elected Members of his decision to readvertise the proposal.
Detail
The details of the alternative proposals are as follows:
· Modify the road layout, by deleting the portion of the 18m wide road affecting either Lot 164 or 165 and reduce the width of the road between Kingsway and the northern east-west road shown on Lot 164 to 15 metres. Retain the width of the road along the southern boundary of ‘POS 12’ and PS site and up to Alexander Drive at 18m to accommodate on-street parking bays required for ‘POS 12’, the PS and the Local Centre;
· Reduce the extent of a portion of ‘POS 12’ on Lot 165 from 14,498m2 to 11,413m2 by excluding the existing residence and the immediate surrounds;
· Provide additional POS of 1,049m2 on Lot 163 and create a new POS of 2,036m2 on 164 in order to compensate for the POS area deleted from Lot 165, which equates to 3,085m2 (14,498m2 - 11,413m2); and
· Zone the northern portion of Lot 165 measuring 7055m2 in area and accommodating the existing residence and the immediate surrounds as ‘Residential’ with a density code of R20/30.
As a result of the proposed amendment, the Structure Plan, the Residential Coding Plan, the Zoning Plan, the Road Hierarchy Plan, the Public Open Space Plan and the POS schedule and the Bus Route Map of the draft LSP 57 will required to be amended accordingly.
Consultation
The alternative proposal prepared by Administration was advertised for a period of 21 days by means of writing only to the owners of Lots 164 and 165 Kingsway, Landsdale and to the PTA and DoE. The submission period closed on 7 November 2011. While the owners of Lots 164 and 165 supported the proposal, DoE did not support the proposal and requested the 18 metre road be reinstated, as shown on the original LSP 57. DoE also provided an alternative proposal, which is discussed in the Comment section of this report. PTA did not make any comments.
Comment
Attachment 5 contains an alternative proposal submitted by DoE. The salient features of this proposal are as follows:
1. Reinstating the 18-metre wide road within Lot 164, Kingsway, Landsdale along its eastern boundary. Entry to this road will be via Lot 165, Kingsway as per the provisions of the draft LSP 57;
2. Locating a portion of another 18-metre wide road within the PS site. In the draft LSP 57, this road was located on Lot 169, Kingsway (refer Attachment 1).
3. Reduction in the possible Residential Zone within Lot 165;
4. Proposing club and change rooms within Lot 165 abutting the 18m wide road; and
5. An indicative layout of the school footprint.
DoE has provided the following advice supporting its alternative proposal:
· To re-instate 18m wide road to the west of the ‘POS 12’ as shown on the original LSP 57 to facilitate direct access to the proposed club and change rooms and open space as well as allowing continuous circulation around the school site in an anti-clockwise direction for the provision of safe student drop-off;
· To reconfigure the proposed Residential Zone at the northwest portion of the Lot 165 to reduce its impact on ‘POS 12’ and therefore to reduce its impact on the school site and the oval; and
· The DoE’s ability to fully develop the school site is also compromised by the road to the east of the site, which has been reconfigured to permit the retention of an existing building, further reducing the width of the site.
Based on the alternative proposal submitted by DoE, the City has prepared a plan to determine the extent of the proposed residential zone on Lot 165 and the extent of ‘POS 11’ and ‘POS 12’ as shown on Attachment 6. The total extent of the proposed Residential Zone on Lot 165 is 5,017m2. The following POS analysis demonstrates no loss of POS area as a result of the amendment proposal.

As the alternative proposal submitted by DoE affects Lot 164, Administration discussed the alternative proposal with the owners of Lot 164 who have advised that as this option does not propose a POS area within Lot 164, they would be supportive of locating the 18m wide road on their property.
It is recommended that Amendment No. 2 to the draft LSP 57 as shown on Attachment 6 be considered satisfactory and the Structure Plan, the Residential Coding Plan, the Zoning Plan, the Road Hierarchy Plan, the Public Open Space Plan and the POS schedule and the Bus Route Map of draft LSP 57 be amended accordingly.
Adoption of Amendment
The final adoption of amendment No. 2 to LSP 57 is subject to the provisions of clause 9.7.1 of DPS 2. Clause 9.7.1 provides that:
“…An amendment to a draft Structure Plan may be advertised by the Council at its discretion, however, the Council should not sign and seal the amendment, prior to the substantive Structure Plan being signed, sealed and certified by the Council and the Commission…”
Council considered LSP 57 at its meeting on 16 November 2010 where it was decided not to support the plan on the basis that Council did not agree with certain modifications requested by the WAPC, particularly in relation to through-roads between LSP 57 and the existing Landsdale Gardens Estate immediately to the west.
Therefore, as LSP 57 has not been finalised, Amendment No. 2 cannot itself be finalised. The amendment can, however, be supported by Council subject to the modifications recommended being made. Council may also decide that it is prepared to sign and seal the amendment subject to the substantive LSP 57 being signed, sealed and certified by the Council and the WAPC.
Conclusion
The City has received a request to amend the draft LSP 57 by rezoning and recoding a portion of Lot 165 Kingsway to Residential R20/30; relocating a portion of the 18m wide Higher Order Access Road onto Lot 164 and proposing additional POS areas on Lots 163 and 164.
During the public comment period the owners of Lot 164 objected to the proposal. Administration suggested an alternative proposal, which was advertised by way of inviting comments from the owners of Lots 164 and 165 Kingsway, Landsdale and from the PTA and DoE. The alternative proposal deleted a portion of the 18-metre wide road. The DoE requested the reinstatement of this road by locating it on Lot 164. The owners of Lot 164 are supportive of locating the road within Lot 164 as shown on Attachment 6. It is recommended that the revised proposal, as depicted in that attachment, be considered satisfactory and that Council amend the Structure Plan, the Residential Coding Plan, the Zoning Plan, the Road Hierarchy Plan, the Public Open Space Plan and the POS schedule and the Proposed Bus Route plan of the draft LSP 57 and forward the amendment proposal to the WAPC for its consideration.
Statutory Compliance
This Structure Plan Amendment has been processed in accordance with the requirements of DPS 2. If the proponent of Amendment No. 2 (being the owner of Lot 165) is aggrieved by Council’s decision then they have the right to use the current SAT proceedings in an attempt to further advance their proposal.

DPS 2 Zoning |
Service Industrial |
Background
The application has been made to introduce wireless network coverage to the rapidly developing Pearsall neighbourhood and the Wangara area. The subject lot is situated in Wangara, abutting Ocean Reef Road to the north, in proximity to its intersection of Wanneroo Road. The location is illustrated on Attachment 1 and is on a cleared, vacant part of this Industrial property.
This property is currently used for both a residential and an industrial purpose. The subject lot currently contains a dwelling (constructed in 1962, prior to the development of industry in its immediate surrounds), an outbuilding and a warehouse.
Detail
Plans for the proposed 25 metre monopole and equipment shelter are included as Attachment 2. Three panel antennae and one dish will be attached to the monopole, the antennae proposed at a height of 24.35 metres and the dish proposed at a height of 20 metres. The applicant has advised that the installation will comply with the Australian Communications and Media Authority’s requirements for electromagnetic radiation (EMR) exposure levels.
Consultation
The development application was advertised for public comment for a period of 28 days by means of an onsite sign, an advertisement in the Wanneroo Times newspaper, the City’s website and letters to landowners within 500 metres of the proposed development.
The submission period closed on 19 December 2011, with nine submissions received at the closing date. A summary of submissions, all of which object to the proposal, and Administration responses are provided in Attachment 3.
The main issues raised during the advertising period and following detailed assessment by Administration relate to the following:
· Loss of amenity resulting from the visual appearance of the proposed telecommunications infrastructure;
· Loss of property or rental value that could potentially result from the installation of the proposed telecommunications infrastructure; and
· Concerns of health implications resulting from EMR, emanating from the proposed telecommunications infrastructure.
A more detailed discussion of the major issues considered in the assessment of the application is provided in the Comment section.
Comment
Most landowners that objected to the proposal are located in Pearsall, on the opposite (northern) side of Ocean Reef Road, with the remainder being owners of an adjoining business in Wangara, and residents in Woodvale and Wanneroo.
The monopole structure is designed to reduce its visual impact by its relatively slim appearance. Many of the comments received during the consultation process expressed concern regarding the visual impact of the proposed monopole, particularly affecting views enjoyed by properties on Zingarello Street and Archer Street. Administration’s response is that the proposed monopole is not proposed at a natural high point in the local landscape and its height is therefore required to provide the coverage sought by the telecommunication carrier. In this context, the slimline design of the monopole is intended to, and in consideration of its design, limit its prominence and visibility as far as practicable. The monopole is proposed at a level considerably lower than the objector’s residing on Zingarello Street and Archer Street, with those streets being approximately 15 metres to 21 metres higher than the subject site.
The City is not responsible for regulating, testing or otherwise managing electromagnetic radiation (that is the Commonwealth Government’s responsibility), and the applicant’s advice that emissions meet Australian standards should be noted.
The City’s Mobile Telephone Base Station Policy (refer to policy implications below) stipulates a 500 metre buffer to sensitive land uses, including dwellings. Achieving the 500 metre buffer prescribed by Council’s policy is always difficult in residential neighbourhoods.
In terms of compliance with the City’s abovementioned Policy, the proposed telecommunication facility would be situated approximately 137m from the nearest Residential zoned land (on the north side of Ocean Reef Road). Approximately 300 dwellings exist within a 500 metre radius of the site of the proposed facility.
Administration sought further information from the applicant in terms of mobile telecommunication coverage in the area, to ascertain whether the proposed facility could be relocated to another property elsewhere in Wangara (in order to achieve a 500m separation distance from dwellings). Whilst these investigations revealed that many properties do exist in the Wangara industrial area that would achieve a 500m separation distance from dwellings (generally located south of Prindiville Drive and east of Pappas Street), the applicant has advised that properties in those areas are either outside the proposed coverage catchment and, in the case of existing telecommunication facilities located in those areas, the existing monopoles are already at capacity and cannot accommodate additional carriers. In view of this, if the proposed monopole were to be relocated elsewhere in Wangara to achieve a 500m separation distance from dwellings, it would need to be of a different design and construction (most likely significantly taller than the current proposal and therefore more visible) to provide the coverage sought in this instance.
Administration does not consider that would be a desirable outcome in terms of reducing impacts of such facilities on the visual amenity of the locality.
State Planning Policy 5.2 – Telecommunications Infrastructure (SPP 5.2) does not prescribe a separation distance from the dwellings, on the basis that the greatest demand for mobile telephone services is generated in residential areas.
So long as issues such as EMR and visual amenity can be addressed, there is scope to support mobile base stations which do not comply with the City’s policy. In this case, it is considered that the visual impact of the proposal will not be detrimental to the amenity of the locality. Further, the proposal will need to comply with applicable Australian standards in terms of EMR.
Statutory Compliance
Telecommunications Infrastructure is a ‘D’ (discretionary) use class in the Service Industrial Zone under District Planning Scheme No. 2.
Strategic Implications
The proposal accords with the following Outcome Objective of the City’s Strategic Plan 2006 – 2021:
“3 Economic
3.3 Provision of timely and coordinated regional infrastructure”
Policy Implications
An assessment of the proposal against the City’s Mobile Telephone Base Station Policy is provided in the Comment section of this report.

Urban Centre |
Background
The subject property is located on Kingsbridge Boulevard, Butler and is situated approximately 960 metres from Marmion Avenue to the West, and adjoins Connelly Drive to the East and Kingsbridge Park to the North (Attachment 1). Lot 9031 is zoned ‘Urban’ under the City’s District Planning Scheme Number 2 (DPS 2) and ‘Centre’ under Agreed Structure Plan No.27 (ASP 27). A subsequent Butler-Jindalee District Structure Plan No. 39 (DSP) identified a ‘Local Centre’ comprising retail NLA of 950m2 on the subject property.
An application for development approval for a shopping centre was submitted to the City on 4 January 2010. The application was conditionally approved at a Council Meeting held 27 July 2010 (Item PS05 -07/10). This approval nominated a total retail net lettable area (NLA) of 900m2, comprising two retail tenancies of 791m2 and 109m2 (As shown in Attachment 2) with adjoining common stock room, cool room, and a delivery area on the ground floor. A mezzanine level includes a plant room, staff room and toilet facilities. The total floorspace of the centre is 1255m2.
An application was submitted to the City on 30 August 2011 for development approval for a Liquor Store utilising the shopping centre floorspace. This application is the subject of this report.
The subject site is zoned ‘Centre’ Zone’. In accordance with the provisions of DPS2, no development shall be commenced or carried on land zoned ‘Centre’ until a further Structure Plan has been prepared and adopted. Subclause 9.11.2 states that if Council is required to consider an application in respect to a development before a further Structure Plan has been prepared and adopted, then Council shall do so considering the interests of orderly and proper planning and concern for the amenity of the locality in the short, medium and long term. The current proposal has been assessed in accordance with the requirements of Clause 9.11.2.
Detail
The proposal incorporates the reconfiguration of the shopping centre, and inclusion of a liquor store which comprises 114m2, with additional coolroom and storage area of 35m2.
The revised ground floor layout is contained in Attachment 3. The reconfiguration will result in no increase in Net Lettable Area, and no additional car parking bay requirement.
The operating hours as nominated in the application are 8.00am to 10.00pm Monday to Saturday, and 10.00am to 10.00pm on Sundays.
Consultation
Public consultation was undertaken for a period of 21 days by way of an advertisement placed in the Wanneroo Times, a sign erected on site, and letters to immediately adjoining landowners. At the conclusion of the comment period, nine written submissions were received, all objections to the proposal. A summary of submissions received and Administration’s responses are contained in Attachment 4.
The main issues raised during the advertising period and following detailed assessment by Administration relate to:
1. Anti-social behaviour
2. Land use conflict
3. Duplication of services – the proximity of other liquor outlets
4. Traffic generation and access
A more detailed discussion of the major issues considered in the assessment of the application is provided in the comment section.
Comment
Issue 1 – Anti-social behaviour
Concerns have been raised, in all submissions received, that the use of the site as a liquor store will attract anti-social behaviour to the locality, and that the use is not suitable in such proximity to a school, parks, and residences.
Response
The proposed liquor store will provide for the sale of alcoholic products, and in itself is unlikely to lead to anti-social behaviour. Whilst the proposed operating hours for the liquor store would provide a longer period of casual surveillance of the area, it is considered in this instance and given the proximity of residences that reduced hours of business may be appropriate to reduce the potential impact of noise and traffic. It is recommended therefore that the operating hours should conclude at 8:30pm in the evenings.
Issue 2 – Land Use Conflict
The proposed site is located in close proximity to two parks and two schools. Submissions received raised issues that the location of the liquor store near these community facilities would have an adverse impact on the users.
Response
It is not uncommon for commercial uses (including liquor stores) to be located within close proximity of community facilities and educational establishments. No evidence has been provided that supports the view that adverse impacts will arise where commercial and community uses are in close proximity to one another.
Issue 3 – Duplication of Services: the proximity of other liquor stores
Concerns were raised regarding the number of liquor stores within the locality and that there is no need for an additional outlet.
Response
The City does not have the ability to regulate the number of commercial premises within an area, as this is largely regulated by market forces. In addition, premises dealing with the sale of alcohol are further regulated by the Department of Racing, Gaming and Liquor who undertake further assessment of such proposals to determine the need prior to granting liquor licences.
Issue 4 – Traffic Generation and Access
Concern was raised by two submissions about traffic generation from the site, and proximity of entrances to the roundabout on Connelly Drive and Kingsbridge Boulevard.
Response
Traffic impacts were addressed in a report (Item PS 05 – 07/10) for the application for a Shopping Centre presented to council meeting held 27 February 2010. The proposal for a change of use only for a Liquor Store within the shopping centre, has no additional impact on volume of cars and access/egress, or for additional carbays as the floorspace is simply being reconfigured.
Conclusion
The proposal is capable of being approved, and despite objections it is a suitable use which is supported.
Statutory Compliance
This application has been assessed in accordance with Clause 9.11.2 the City of Wanneroo’s District Planning Scheme No. 2 in relation to Structure Plans 27 and 39, which refer to a Centre Zone.
Strategic Implications
The proposal accords with the following Outcome Objective of the City’s Strategic Plan 2006 – 2021:

Issue
To consider the appointment of community representatives to the Environmental Advisory Committee (EAC).
Background
In accordance with Section 5.11 of the Local Government Act 1995 (the Act), following the 2011 Local Government Elections, Council sought nominations for community representatives on its various advisory committees, including the EAC.
The main role of the EAC is to provide a forum for community participation in the preparation of the City’s environmental policies, strategies and other such matters referred to it by the City.
The EAC’s Terms of Reference provide for a maximum of 15 members, comprised of three elected members and a maximum of 12 community representatives. Council’s appointed elected member delegates to the EAC are Cr Guise and Cr Smithson. Cr Gray is the appointed deputy delegate. Currently none of the community representative positions are filled.
Detail
Only two community representative nominations were received for appointment to the EAC, from John Kelly, a resident of Woodvale and Kevin McLeod, a resident of Madeley.
Comment
Mr Kelly has been a community representative of the EAC since September 2005 and has provided advice and input into the preparation of the City of Wanneroo Local Biodiversity Strategy and Local Water Management Strategy as well as the Yellagonga Integrated Catchment Management Plan, Gnangara Sustainability Strategy and the Koondoola Regional Bushland Management Plan. He has extensive knowledge in various environmental issues and has attended local and state environmental seminars.
Mr McLeod has been a community representative of the EAC since April 2009 and has links to both the Yellagonga Advisory Committee as well as Friends of Yellagonga. He has attained environmental experience through his involvement with these groups, including working within the Friends of Yellagonga nursery to propagate plants used in rehabilitation projects within the Yellagonga Regional Park. He has also provided input into research projects for the University of Western Australia and Curtin University regarding the Oblong Turtle (Chelodiona oblonga).
Based on the experience and knowledge of the two community representative nominations, combined with the Councillor delegates, Administration feels that there is sufficient representation for the EAC to act effectively. This situation will be reassessed in the future should additional community members express an interest in joining the EAC.
Statutory Compliance
Pursuant to the Local Government Act 1995, Section 5.10(1)(a) requires, by absolute majority, a committee to have its members appointed by the local government.
Strategic Implications
The proposal accords with the following Outcome Objective of the City’s Strategic Plan 2006 – 2021:
“4 Governance
4.2 Improve community engagement”
4.2.1 Encourage community participation in the decision making process

To consider the attached Compliments, Feedback and Complaints Policy at the Ordinary Council Meeting scheduled for 6 March 2012.
Background
The City’s current Complaint Handling Procedure was endorsed in 2003 at the Ordinary Council Meeting on 12 August 2003 (Resolution CEO2-08/03). The City has been using this procedure as a basis for operational complaint handling since this time.
Since the endorsement of the current procedure an updated version of the Australian Standard AS ISO 10002 – 2006, customer satisfaction – Guidelines for complaints handling in organisations (ISO 10002:2004), MOD (modified) was approved on behalf of the Council of Standards Australia.
The City has now revised and created a new Policy for Compliments, Feedback and Complaints (See attachment 1.) and it will be supported by a Compliments, Feedback and Complaints Procedure. The new position of Customer Liaison Officer has been tasked with the development, review and maintenance of the associated Procedure and Policy.
Detail
The current Council adopted Complaint Handling Procedure had a strong focus on the operational handling of complaints at an officer level and refers to outdated Acts, Regulations and Council Procedures and guides officers on procedures based on the type of complaint.
This new policy defines Council’s position on Compliments, Feedback and Complaint handling and has been developed from the new Australian Standards and revised Ombudsman Guidelines.
The Australian Standard is an adoption with national modifications and has been varied as indicated in the guidelines to take account of Australian conditions. The current Complaint Handling Procedure incorporates elements of Australian Standard 4269-1995 which has now been revised and redesignated as AS ISO 10002-2006. The revised guidelines issued by Ombudsman Western Australia incorporate fundamental principles of effective complaint handling, for example, objectivity and fairness.
Following Council’s consideration and final adoption of the Compliments, Feedback and Complaints Policy, a management procedure will be developed, to be available in 2012.
To enable the work of Customer Liaison Officer to progress effectively, this Policy is required to provide the framework to guide the City of Wanneroo in its management and handling of complaints.
Consultation
Stakeholders consulted are Director City Businesses, Managers, Coordinator Customer Relations, Coordinator Governance, Chief Executive Officer and the City Lawyer. External stakeholder consultation was with the Ombudsman of Western Australia.
Comment
The City receives numerous compliments, feedback and complaints across all Directorates and the absence of an endorsed holistic Policy creates vulnerability in managing compliments, feedback and complaints in a consistent, fair and transparent manner. Reducing the risk of inefficient and untimely handling of these communications creating dissatisfaction to our customers, is paramount to the ongoing success of strategies in place for our organisation.

To consider the resolution of a petition from residents in and around Rayner Drive, Landsdale with regard to anti-social behaviour from the tenants of 25 Rayner Drive, Landsdale.
Background
In August 2011 Council was presented with a petition from 15 residents in and around Rayner Drive, Landsdale, detailing ongoing concerns with anti-social behaviour from the tenants of 25 Rayner Drive, Landsdale.
Detail
The petition read as follows:
“We the undersigned, all being residents of the City of Wanneroo do formally request Council’s consideration of unsocial behaviour, loudness through the night, constant parties being held in the garage, illegal parking, foul language and racial abuse at 25 Rayner Drive, Landsdale”.
Consultation
Administration liaised with the WA Police (Warwick Police) with regard to the reported anti-social behaviour and as a result the Police have allocated additional patrols in the area.
Comment
Administration had responded to complaints of anti-social behaviour at 25 Rayner Drive prior to submission of the petition. As a result of the ongoing complaints and the petition, additional safety patrols were conducted by the City of Wanneroo and Police, and Rangers attended on several occasions to enforce illegal parking activity.
Since submission of the petition and the subsequent media attention that it attracted, the anti-social behaviour problems appear to have subsided. There has only been one complaint relating to noise and another four relating to illegal parking.
In response to the noise complaint one of the City’s Environmental Health Officers has been liaising with the complainant, who was also listed as the contact person for the petition, and advised that the tenants of 25 Rayner Drive had moved out. On 8 February 2012 the City’s Coordinator Community Safety contacted the complainant who confirmed the tenants of 25 Rayner Drive have indeed moved out. He advised that the situation has now been resolved and that he was very appreciative of the City’s involvement and assistance in the matter.

Comment
In considering these applications 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; or
b) Council may refuse permission to keep more than two dogs.
Application One: 31 Buffett Ramble, Quinns Rock
The applicant is seeking permission from the City to keep three dogs at 31 Buffett Ramble, Quinns Rock. The applicants would like to keep three dogs as they have been foster carers for SAFE Avon Valley for a number of months and would like to adopt the dog that they currently foster.
A Ranger has inspected the property and confirmed it is adequate for the confinement and exercise of the dogs. All fences are 1.8 metres in height with a roller door as a gate in compliance with the residential requirements of the Dog Act 1976. The dogs are kept in a medium sized yard and sleep in the house at night and no objections were received during the consultation process.
It is recommended that an exemption under section 26(3) of the Dog Act 1976 be granted.
Application Two: 5 Lithgow Drive, Clarkson
The applicant is seeking permission from the City to keep three dogs at 5 Lithgow Drive, Clarkson. The applicants would like to keep three dogs as they recently acquired their third dog from a friend who was having difficulty getting her two dogs to like each other.
A Ranger has inspected the property and confirmed it is adequate for the confinement and exercise of the dogs. All fences are 1.8 metres in height with a 1.8 metre gate in compliance with the residential requirements of the Dog Act 1976. The dogs are kept in a medium sized yard and sleep in the house or under the patio in a kennel at night and no objections were received during the consultation process.
It is recommended that an exemption under section 26(3) of the Dog Act 1976 be granted.
Application Three: 40 Karimba Street, Wanneroo
The applicant is seeking permission from the City to keep four dogs at 40 Karimba Street, Wanneroo. Two of the dogs are registered to the applicant and the other two to her granddaughter who lives with her. A check of the City’s records reveals that prior to this application being made, multiple previous complaints had been lodged with Regulatory Services when the occupants lived at their previous address (12 Sheffield Avenue, Wanneroo) in regard to the dogs regularly wandering at large and excessive barking and yapping. There is also a complaint lodged against the granddaughter’s dogs when she resided in Yanchep.
A Ranger has inspected the property and has expressed concerns regarding a crack in the back fence and has deemed it inadequate for the confinement and exercise of the dogs. The rear fences are 1.8 metres in height and are as such in compliance with the Dog Act 1976. The dogs are kept in a medium sized yard and sleep in the house or in a kennel under the patio at night.
Given the number of dogs, the size of the area in which they are contained and the complaints lodged at previous residences it is recommended that an exemption under section 26(3) of the Dog Act 1976 be not granted.
Statutory Compliance
The exemptions sought to Council’s Animals Local Law 1999 are permissible under Section 26(3) of the Dog Act 1976.
Strategic Implications
The proposal accords with the following Outcome Objective of the City’s Strategic Plan 2006 – 2021:

The TEP noted that the top two ranked tenderers achieved relatively similar scores.
For Step 2, the TEP undertook a detailed cost assessment of all tender submissions received. Arithmetic checks were made and the assessment took into consideration tender clarifications and rates, so that the same requirements for the project were being allowed by all in their tendered prices.
The weighting applied to Step 2 of the criteria was as follows:
|
Item No. |
Description |
Score |

Price of Works |
20% |
Price for the services offered (20%)
The Price Schedule required rates to plant local provenance species into landscaping areas and nominated reserves within the City’s jurisdiction. Numbers of plants were provided for each of the project sites.
The Price Schedules enabled planting, traffic management, weed management and maintenance activities respectively to be apportioned and if necessary, separately awarded on a schedule basis. This combined the requirements of landscape, conservation offset and foreshore works.
In consideration of the activities requested in 2011/2012 and 2012/2013 the tenders were assessed in three parts for price as follows:
Part 1 All Schedule 1A Landscaping Tables (Excludes Schedule 1B and 1C);
Part 2 All Schedule 1B Conservation Offset Tables (Excludes Schedule 1A and 1C);
Part 3 All Schedule 1C Conservation and Foreshore Tables (Excludes Schedule 1A
and 1B);
In consideration of Part 1 Schedule 1A, Landscaping Works for 2011/2012 and 2012/2013, the tenderers were ranked as follows:

In consideration of Part 2 Schedule 1B, Conservation Offset Works for 2011/2012 and 2012/2013 the tenderers were ranked as follows:

With respect to Schedule 1B, and taking into account Step 1 and Step 2 of the evaluation process, Natural Area Management Services was ranked the highest in the overall assessment.
In consideration of Part 3 Schedule 1C Foreshore Works for 2011/2012 and 2012/2013, the tenderers were ranked as follows:

It should be noted that Natural Area Management Services and Environmental Industries were ranked the highest two in Step 1 of the Assessment Process. With respect to Schedule 1C, and taking into account Step 1 and Step 2 of the evaluation process, Natural Area Management Services were ranked the highest in the overall assessment.
It should be noted that there are overall benefits to the City for contract and time management in nominating two tenderers to complete the planting works and maintenance activitites.
Given the risk associated to awarding Schedule 1A of the tender to Environmental Industries and Schedules 1B and 1C of the tender to Natural Area Management Services, City officers have conducted an assessment and investigation of the tenderers noted the following:
· Natural Area Management Services and Environmental Industries both ranked highly in the Step 1 process;
· No Tender clarifications were required as both submissions thoroughly addressed the Tender criteria;
· Natural Area Management Services has performed previous projects for the City and for a range of clients including Burns Beach Property Trust, Telstra PITC, Water Corporation, Christian Bothers in W.A Inc and other local governments;
· Environmental Industries Environmental has performed previous projects for the City and for a range of clients including Landcorp, Kings Park Botanical Gardens Authority, Port Hedland Port Authority and other local governments;
· Examples of projects undertaken by the tenderers include Redmond Reserve Enbankment Stabilisation, Yellgonga Regional Park Rehabilitation, Burns Beach Coastal Rehabilitation, Hillarys Boat Harbour, Port Coogee, Ellenbrook Township and the Australian Marine Complex Stage 1 and 2;
· The Tender Schedule 1A, B and C prices are competitively priced and represent value for money; and
Based on the above, the risk assessment for Natural Area Management Services and Environmental Industries is considered low and should any risk eventuate, then this is considered to be satisfactorily managed by the City.

To consider Tender No. 01141 for the Provision of Illuminated Street Signs for a Period of Five Years.
Background
To provide another avenue of advertising for local businesses and to diversify the City’s income base, it is proposed to engage a contractor to install illuminated street signs at prominent locations. The proposed signs will include the commercial advertisements, a community message, the City’s logo and street names. All locations will be pre-approved by the City and the signs will be installed, maintained and owned by the contractor. The contractor will receive advertising income from local businesses and the City will receive income per sign for allowing these signs to be installed and will also receive a certain number of signs free of cost for the purpose of promoting its own facilities or locations of significance.
This item was included on the agenda for the Council meeting on 21 February 2012 but was withdrawn to enable a further review of submissions and particular clauses in the specification.
Tender No. 09006 - The Provision of Illuminated Street Signs for a Period of Five Years was advertised on 14 March 2009 and closed on 7 April 2009. Two conforming tenders were received.
Council considered a report regarding Tender No. 09006 (Item No IN01-06/09 refers) at its Ordinary Council Meeting on 2 June 2009 and resolved:
“That Council:-
1. ACCEPTS Tender No 09006 from Sarah Buehrig T/A Pulse Design for the Provision of Illuminated Street Signs for a Period of Five Years as per the schedule of rates and general conditions of tendering from 1 July 2009 to 30 June 2014 with an option to extend for a further five-year period or part thereof; and
2. AUTHORISES the Chief Executive Officer to consider extending the contract with the successful tenderer for a further period of five years or part thereof subject to a satisfactory performance of the successful contractor during the first two years of the initial contract period.”
Following the commencement of the contract on 1 July 2009, Pulse Design undertook a number of steps to deliver the services under the contract but no substantial progress was made. During January and February 2011, Pulse Design indicated that due to a number of issues faced, it was considering seeking a variation to the contract. Formal advice seeking to vary the terms of the contract was then received from Pulse Design, but was not supported by the City. Pulse Design then requested termination of Contract No 09006.
Council considered a report regarding termination of Contract No. 09006 (Item No IN03-05/11 refers) at its Ordinary Council Meeting on 3 May 2011 and resolved as follows:
“That Council:-
1. AGREES with the request for termination by Pulse Design in accordance with “General Conditions of the Contract; Clause 13 – Termination” of the contract agreement; and
2. AUTHORISES the calling of a new tender in July 2011 following a thorough review of the scope of works and specification.”
Detail
The scope of works and specification has been reviewed and similarly to the previous tender the specification is based on the following main items:
1. The contractor is to supply, install and maintain the signs;
2. The signs are to remain in the ownership of the contractor;
3. The contractor is to derive advertising income from the signs;
4. The City is to receive income per sign for the duration each sign is installed; and
5. The City is to receive similar free signs for its use. Two free signs are to be supplied upfront, another two to be supplied when contractor installs 30 signs and then one free sign for every 10 subsequent signs installed by the Contractor. The initial two free signs are to be located for the City’s use at:
a. Wanneroo Road/Dundebar Road Intersection – indicating the locations of the City Offices, Wanneroo Library and Museum, Wanneroo Aquamotion and Wanneroo Police Station.
b. Marmion Avenue/Ocean Keys Boulevard Intersection – indicating the locations of the Clarkson Library, Clarkson Youth Centre and Clarkson Police Station.
The following items were modified from the previous tender and contract to encourage tenderers to submit achievable offers and to minimise the possibility that the successful contractor will not be able to deliver signs within the tendered timeframe.

The City received comments from two of the tenderers regarding the practicality of Clause 14.1(b) of the General Conditions of Contract, which allows for termination of the contract at any time by either party by giving three months written notice. Given the long term nature of this contract, termination by either party without justification may be considered unreasonable by the other party. In view of this, the City sought clarification from the recommended tenderer, Directional Systems Australia, which has confirmed its agreement to remove Clause 14.1(b) from the final contract should its tender be accepted by Council. Following discussions regarding Clause 14.1(b) and the ramifications of early termination, Directional Systems Australia has also agreed to amend Clause 1.2 of the Scope of Works to clarify that the Contractor should remove its signs within 14 days of any early termination of the contract unless otherwise agreed between the parties.
Consultation
Nil
Comment
The tender submission from Directional Systems Australia achieved the highest score in accordance with the assessment criteria and weighting as detailed in the tender document and is therefore recommended as the successful tenderer. Reference checks have indicated that this contractor has previously provided a satisfactory service delivery to its customers.

Issue
To consider an amendment to the 2011/2012 Capital Works Program – Traffic Treatments Program to recognise funding from the Anti Hoon Speed Hump Program.
Background
At Council’s meeting on 9 March 2010, Council endorsed the recommendations of Report IN04-03/10 which nominated project submissions for funding through the State Government’s Anti Hoon Speed Hump Program. The report recommended acceptance of grant funding for Burnett Drive, Clarkson in 2009/2010, and nominated two projects for funding in 2010/2011: Rosslare Promenade, Mindarie and Danbury Crescent Girrawheen. The City was subsequently advised that grant funding was approved for Rosslare Promenade, while Danbury Crescent was placed on a reserve list.
In December 2011 the City was advised that the Anti Hoon Speed Hump Program was in its final year and had not been fully subscribed. As a consequence, funding for Danbury Crescent has been approved and additional funding available if the City wished to submit additional projects. A condition of funding was that all approved projects be fully complete and funding recouped by the end of this financial year.
Council considered the option of applying for Anti Hoon Speed Hump Program funding to assist with traffic calming works on Brazier Road, Yanchep at its meeting of 13 December 2011 (IN05-12/11 refers) and resolved as follows:
“7. APPROVES the submission of an application for a funding allocation of $8,000 from Main Roads WA’s 2011/2012 Anti Hoon Program towards the cost of installing speed cushions on Brazier Road between Compass Circle and Wilkie Road;”
The City took the opportunity to apply for two additional Anti Hoon Speed Hump projects: Brazier Road, Yanchep, and Coldstream Circuit, Merriwa.
Detail
The City has received grant funding approval for the three projects listed below through the Anti Hoon Speed Hump Program. The grant funding is provided on the basis of two thirds State funding to one third Council funding. As this is the final year of the program all projects must be completed within the 2011/2012 financial year.

Consultation
It is a requirement of the Anti Hoon Speed Hump Program that local residents be consulted and a majority be in favour before each project can proceed.
Due to the tight deadlines community consultation has already been undertaken on the three projects with the results showing strong support for the installation of rubber speed cushions.
Comment
Since nominating the Coldstream Circuit project further design work has shown that it would require a significant upgrade to the street lighting to meet the requirements of the grant application. It is highly unlikely that Western Power could complete this street lighting upgrade within the time available, as well as adding significantly to the cost of the project. Given these difficulties, it will not be possible to proceed with this project under the current Anti Hoon Speed Hump Program. Given the level of antisocial driving behaviour that occurs in the area and the support for action by the local community, Administration considers that the project is warranted and should be listed in the Draft 10 Year Capital Works Program 2012/13 – 2021/22 for future consideration by Council.
With regards the Danbury Crescent and Brazier Road proposals, it is advised that funding has not been allocated in the 2011/2012 Traffic Treatments Program. Administration supports the early implementation of these projects to address the hooning issues on these streets, particularly as the local residents are in favour of the installation of speed cushions. A budget variation is required to reflect the grant funding and a reallocation of funds to meet the funding shortfall.
Statutory Compliance
The budget variation is in compliance with Part 6 – Financial Management of Local Government Act and Part 2 – General Financial Management of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations 1996.
Strategic Implications
The proposal accords with the following Outcome Objective of the City’s Strategic Plan 2006 – 2021:
“2 Social
2.4 Improve community safety”
Policy Implications
Nil
Financial Implications
Projects approved for funding as part of the Anti Hoon Speed Hump Program are funded one third by Council and two thirds by the Program.
The estimated cost for the installation of speed cushions and street lighting along Danbury Crescent is $33,000, with $11,000 to be funded by Council, while the cost of installing speed cushions in Brazier Road is also estimated to be $33,000, with $11,000 to be funded by Council. The $22,000 Council commitment will need funding through a budget variation as there are no funds in the 2011/2012 Traffic Treatments for these projects.
Project No PR-2233 - Upgrade Franklin Road and Caporn Street Intersection is a State Black Spot Program project, with funding over the 2011/2012 – 2012/2013 financial years. A review of the cost estimate for this project indicates that $22,000 of the municipal funded component of the project is available for reallocation.

Issue
To consider the amendment of existing parking prohibitions at Roseworth Primary School on Bilby Road, Stoke Court and Stebbing Way, Girrawheen.
Background
Roseworth Primary School has recently been built on the site of the former Montrose Primary School and also serves the former Hainsworth Primary School catchment. Refer Attachment 1 for location plan.
The School has recently made changes to the location at which the school buses pick up/drop off students and has sought to amend the parking prohibitions around the school to increase parking availability for parents. Additionally, the school feels that time restricted parking on Stebbing Way is creating an issue for parents wishing to attend school gatherings held for extended periods of time.
Detail
Council at its meeting held 8 February 2011 endorsed the following recommendations;
“1. APPROVES the installation of “No Stopping, Road or Nature Strip, 7.30am-9am, 2.30pm-4pm, School Days” (R5-36) signs along residential property frontages on Stebbing Way, Girrawheen as shown on Drawing No 2629-1-2 at Attachment 3;
2. APPROVES the installation of “No Stopping, Road or Nature Strip” (R5-35) signs at the bends on Stebbing Way, Girrawheen as shown on Drawing No 2629-1-2 at Attachment 3;
3. APPROVES the installation of “5 min Parking, 7.30am-9am, 2.30pm-4pm, School Days” (R5-13) signs for the parking embayments on the north side of Stebbing Way, Girrawheen as shown on Drawing No 2629-1-2 at Attachment 3;
4. APPROVES the installation of “BUS ZONE” (R5-20) signs to create a bus bay on the south side of Bilby Road, Girrawheen as shown on Drawing No 2629-1-2 at Attachment 3;
5. APPROVES an extension of the ‘No Standing’ zone on the south side of Bilby Way, Girrawheen, from the cul de sac head to the commencement of the parking embayments by the relocation of the “No Standing” (R5-36(R)) sign as shown on Drawing No 2629-1-2 at Attachment 3;
6. ADVISE the property owners on Stebbing Way, Stoke Court and Bilby Road, Girrawheen of Council’s decision; and
7. ADVISE the Principal of Roseworth Primary School of Council’s decision.”
Following the installation of the above parking prohibitions, consultation was held between Administration and Roseworth Primary School representatives to ascertain their effectiveness. The discussion raised the following issues;
· Reduced availability of parking to parents created by the new bus zone area on Bilby Road.
· Reduced availability of long term parking for parents on Stebbing Way.
In an attempt to rectify parking congestion issues, Administration recommended that Roseworth Primary School trial relocating the bus pickup/drop-off on-site within the main school carpark. Additionally, it was recommended that the carpark entry and exit be reversed, changing the direction of flow through the carpark and encouraging left in / left out vehicle movement to reduce congestion. The trial was completed over a 3-week period and was determined by the school to be an effective alternate to the existing arrangement.
The City has revised the existing parking prohibitions arrangement to remove the ‘Bus Zone’ on Bilby Road and apply a 5min parking prohibition on Bilby Road between Stoke Court and Ipswich Crescent, adjacent to Roseworth Primary School. Additionally, the existing 5min parking prohibitions on Stebbing Way are proposed to be removed to allow long term parking in the embayments adjacent to Roseworth Primary School.
Consultation
Administration has been in contact with the Principal of Roseworth Primary School and a representative of the P & C Committee with regard to the proposed changes, and both have advised that the changes are satisfactory.
Comment
Roseworth Primary School has now been operating for approximately one year and Administration considers that the proposed changes will rectify the majority of the concerns raised by both the school representative and parents. The relocation of the bus pickup/drop-off zone, and the swapping of the entry / exit points to the school main carpark have improved the workability of the school at the peak periods in the mornings and afternoons.
Furthermore, Administration acknowledges that a 5-minute parking restriction may not be sufficient for parents wanting to attend the school’s “Parent reading’ which occurs for a period of 30 – 60 mins on a regular basis. The proposed parking prohibition alterations along Stebbing Way will allow parents to park without any time restrictions.
The parking prohibitions proposed for Stebbing Way, Stoke Court and Bilby Road are as shown on the City of Wanneroo Drawing No 2629-1-4 refer Attachment 2.
Statutory Compliance
The installation of parking prohibition signage will allow the enforcement of Part 4 Clause 38 of the City’s Parking and Facilities Local Law 2003(as amended)
Strategic Implications
The proposal accords with the following Outcome Objective of the City’s Strategic Plan 2006 – 2021:
“2 Social
2.4 Improve community safety”
Policy Implications
Nil
Financial Implications
The provision of parking prohibitions incurs not only the initial cost of materials and installation of the signs but also the ongoing cost of maintenance due to vandalism and graffiti. The estimate for materials and installation to implement these changes is $300, which can be funded from the Project No PR –1431, Parking Scheme Signage and Line Marking, Various, for which a total of $10,000 has been approved in the 2011/2012 Capital Works Budget.
Voting Requirements
Simple Majority
That Council:-
1. APPROVES the removal of “5 min Parking, 7.30am-9am, 2.30pm-4pm, School Days” (R5-13) signs for the parking embayments on the north side of Stebbing Way, Girrawheen as shown on Drawing No 2629-1-4 at Attachment 2;
2. APPROVES the removal of “BUS ZONE” (R5-20) signs on the south side of Bilby Road, Girrawheen as shown on Drawing No 2629-1-2 at Attachment 2;
3. APPROVES the installation of “5 min Parking, 7:30am-9am, 2:30pm-4pm, School Days” (R5-13) signs for the parking embayments on the south side of Bilby Road, Girrawheen as shown on Drawing No 2629-1-4 at Attachment 2;

Issue
To consider the status of Administration’s investigation of the road closure options outlined in public submissions to Council’s decision to partially close the junction of Ocean Reef Road and Backshall Place, Wanneroo, as advertised in the Wanneroo Times of 10 June 2010.
Background
At the Council meeting of 15 November 2011 Council considered Report IN09-11/11 into public submissions on Council’s decision to partially close the junction of Ocean Reef Road and Backshall Place, Wanneroo (IN07-07/10 refers), as advertised in the Wanneroo Times of 10 June 2010, and resolved as follows:
“1. RECEIVES the public submissions concerning the proposed turning restrictions at the junction of Backshall Place and Ocean Reef Road to prevent access into Backshall Place from Ocean Reef Road;
2. In accordance with the Local Government Act 1995 Section 3.50, as amended, PARTIALLY CLOSES Backshall Place to vehicular traffic at the junction of Ocean Reef Road to prevent left and right turns from Ocean Reef Road into Backshall Place, as shown in Attachment 1;
3. REQUESTS the Director Infrastructure to prepare a report on the partial closure options outlined in the submissions for consideration by Council at its meeting in March 2012 to allow a review of the closure as proposed in 2 above;
4. AUTHORISES the Mayor to write to the Member for Wanneroo and request his support in approaching the Transport Minister to allocate funding for the installation of traffic control signal at the intersection of Wanneroo Road and Scenic Drive in Main Roads WA’s 2012/13 Capital Works budget;
5. REVIEWS the traffic model and all access arrangements in conjunction with the installation of the traffic signals at the intersection of Wanneroo Road and Scenic Drive
6. NOTES that Administration will continue to discuss access options with Main Roads WA for Wanneroo Road between the Wanneroo Townsite and Ocean Reef Road; and
7. ADVISES the owners/occupiers of all properties in the area bounded by Wanneroo Road, San Rosa Road, Yellagonga Regional Park and Ocean Reef Road of Council’s decision.”
This report is intended to provide a review of the current status of the City’s investigation into the road closure options referred to in Item 3 above.
Detail
In accord with Resolution IN09-11/11 Item 3 above the City has engaged Shawmac Pty Ltd to undertake traffic modelling of the following scenarios proposed for Regent Estates:
1. The existing road configuration, with left and right turns from Ocean Reef Road into Backshall Place prohibited.
2. The existing road configuration, with left and right turns from Ocean Reef Road into Backshall Place prohibited but with traffic signals at the Wanneroo Road/Scenic Drive intersection.
3. The Ocean Reef Road/Backshall Place configured for left-in/left-out only, ie close the Ocean Reef Rd median, with traffic signals at the Wanneroo Road/Scenic Drive intersection.
4. Right turns from Backshall Place into Ocean Reef Road restored but right turns from Scenic Drive into James Spiers Drive and left turns James Spier Drive into Scenic Drive prohibited.
Consultation
No additional public consultation has been undertaken in the preparation of this report.
Comment
To date the following actions have been taken:
· Shawmac has recalibrated the traffic model for Regent Estates, established in 2009, against current traffic volumes; and
· Shawmac has undertaken modelling of the first two scenarios.
The results so far indicate that the provision of traffic signals at the Wanneroo Road / Scenic Drive intersection is unlikely, by itself, to have any effect on the volume of ‘rat-run’ traffic using the Regent Estates road network as drivers will still perceive the Regent Estates route as being quicker than the alternative along Wanneroo Road and Ocean Reef Road.
It should be noted that the probability algorithms behind the mathematical modelling of road networks are based on studies that show that the major determinant of driver’s choice of travel route is journey time.
Modelling has also shown that to discourage drivers from using the James Spiers Drive -Tyne Crescent route would require that sufficient traffic treatments be installed to restrict the overall travel speed along that route to about 35-40 km/h. However, this does not result in traffic moving to the Wanneroo Road-Ocean Reef Road route but alternative paths through Regent Estates.
It is important to finalise the modelling of the four options before providing a detailed report to Council. In addition it has been recognised through a number of reports to Council that Backshall Place needs traffic management treatments to reduce the speed in this street. Options are currently being developed for consideration by Council before proceeding with the community consultation process. On this basis it is proposed to present a detailed report to Council at its meeting on 29 May 2012.

Issue
To consider a request by the Public Transport Authority (PTA) for an extension of time to the temporary closure of Benenden Avenue, Butler until the end of August 2012 to allow the construction of road bridges over the Northern Suburbs railway line.
Background
As part of the Northern Suburbs Railway extension, from Clarkson Station to Butler Station, PTA is currently building three road bridges over the railway at Landbeach Boulevard, Benenden Avenue and Butler Boulevard. To assist with the construction, Council at its meeting of 24 August 2010 approved the temporary closure of Benenden Avenue, as follows (IN03-08/10 refers):
“1. APPROVES the temporary closure of Benenden Avenue, Butler, from 1 March 2011 until 29 February 2012, to allow the construction of the railway bridges at Benenden Avenue and Landbeach Boulevard;
2. ENDORSES the responses to the submissions as outlined in the report and ADVISES the submitters accordingly of Council’s decision and the responses;
3. REQUESTS the Public Transport Authority to LIAISE with Administration and principal of the East Butler Primary School to determine the extent of temporary traffic management required in Landbeach Boulevard;
4. ADVISES the Public Transport Authority of Council’s decision; and
5. REQUESTS the Public Transport Authority to provide the owners/occupiers of all properties in Butler, east of the railway line, full details of the proposed road closure, temporary detours and timeframes.”
Detail
The original request from PTA for a temporary closure of Benenden Avenue proposed that the closure was necessary from 1 March 2011 to 29 February 2012, however the actual start of the closure was delayed until 27 June 2011. PTA has now requested that the temporary closure be extended to the end of August 2012 to provide time for the successful completion of the bridges, relocation of services, and reconstruction of the new roads over the bridge decks.
PTA has advised that they will continue to:
· Provide alternate emergency access for FESA at the Butler Station site.
· Communicate with the community via their website, project updates, local papers and letter drops to local residents.
· Work with the East Butler Primary School. Following the success of using a variable message board to reduce speeds on Landbeach Boulevard during December they repeated the event prior to the new school term.
Consultation
No community consultation has been undertaken in the preparation of this report.
Comment
At the time of the original request the only access to east Butler was via Benenden Avenue or Landbeach Boulevard. The proposed closure of Benenden Avenue meant that the precinct was solely dependent on Landbeach Boulevard. Since that time alternative access to east Butler has been established through south Alkimos via Marmion Avenue and Santorini Promenade to the northern extension of Benenden Avenue.
While the closure has resulted in increased traffic on Landbeach Boulevard, Randstone Parade and Huntly Avenue, this was as expected. PTA has endeavoured to work with the East Bulter Primary School to modify driver behaviour past the primary school. Administration has also conducted traffic surveys on Landbeach Boulevard, Randstone Parade and Huntly Avenue with the following results:
Randstone Parade
Average Weekday Traffic – 1,441 vehicles per day
85% Speed – 53 km/h
Huntly Avenue
Average Weekday Traffic – 1,191 vehicles per day
85% Speed – 59 km/h
While there is evidence of inconvenience to the residents directly affected by diverted traffic, Administration considers that the proposed extension to the temporary closure of Benenden Avenue is necessary until construction of the Benenden Avenue railway bridge is complete.
Statutory Compliance
Section 3.50 of the Local Government Act 1995 controls the temporary closure of public roads. Part 2 of the (Functions and General) Regulations 1996 denotes the persons to be notified of the closures.

To consider a petition requesting the installation of speed modification devices on Anchorage Drive, Mindarie.
Background
Council received Petition PT01-12/11 at its meeting of 13 December 2011. The petition reads:
“We, the undersigned, all being Residents of the City of Wanneroo do formally request Council’s consideration to install speed modification devices on Anchorage Drive which is being used as a raceway at all hours of the day and night north of Swansea St south of Rosslare St.”
The petition has been signed by 25 residents. A further 11 signatures are listed on the reverse of the petition but cannot be included as the text of the petition is not stated.
Refer Attachment 1 for a location plan.
Detail
In accord with Agreed Structure Plan No.13 for Mindarie Keys Harbourside Village (Attachment 2 refers), Anchorage Drive, between Swansea Promenade and Rosslare Promenade has been constructed as a Local Distributor Road with a 9m wide pavement in a 32m wide road reserve.
Liveable Neighbourhoods, in listing the function and characteristics of this type of road gives the indicative traffic volume for a Neighbourhood Connector B constructed as a two lane undivided carriageway as 3,000 vehicles per day (vpd), while Main Roads WA (MRWA) lists the capacity of a Local Distributor Road as 6,000 vpd.
Currently, the posted speed limit on Anchorage Drive, between Marmion Avenue and Rosslare Promenade is 60km/h.
Only nine properties along Anchorage Drive, between Swansea Promenade and Rosslare Promenade, have direct property access to the road. The majority of abutting properties back onto the road and are accessed from other roads.
The following traffic data was collected for Anchorage Drive for the week commencing 3 September 2010:
Traffic data:
Definitions
AWT - average Weekday Traffic
vpd - vehicles per day
85%ile speed – the speed at or below which 85% of vehicles are travelling.
20km/h Pace – the 20km/h speed range in which the majority of vehicles are travelling
% in Pace – percentage of total vehicles travelling within the 20km/h Pace range
Anchorage Drive – North of Swansea Pde
AWT – 2843 vpd
85%ile speed – 59km/h
Max speed – 98km/h
20km/h Pace – 44 – 64km/h
% in Pace – 67.3%
Crash data, provided by the WA Police to MRWA, records that there have been eight reported accidents on Anchorage Drive, between Swansea Promenade and Rosslare Promenade, during the five years 2006 to 2010. Five of these accidents are recorded as ‘Out of Control’ which indicates poor driver behaviour, typically the consequence of ‘hoon’ activity.
Additionally, Council at its meeting of 16 November 2010 considered Item No IN07-11/10 into Anchorage Drive, which recommended improving pedestrian crossing facilities and seeking Council’s support to approach MRWA to reduce the posted speed limit to 50km/h. At that time Council resolved the following:
“1. REQUESTS Administration to prepare a plan for improved pedestrian crossings along Anchorage Drive between Marmion Avenue and Ocean Falls Boulevard for presentation to Council within the next 12 months; and
2. UNDERTAKES community consultation in relation to 1 above and to determine whether or not the community is in favour of the proposed speed limit reduction to 50 Km/h on Anchorage Drive (South) between Marmion Avenue and Rosslare Promenade and reports to Council.”
Administration is currently in the final stages of preparing a community consultation strategy to achieve Items 1 and 2 above.
Consultation
No public consultation was undertaken in the preparation of this report.
Comment
Using the above traffic data, Anchorage Drive has been assessed in accordance with the City’s Traffic Management Investigation and Intervention Policy (TM Policy) to determine the justification and the priority of any traffic management works. In assessing a road the TM Policy considers the following criteria:
· Speed
· Traffic volumes
· Crash history
· Road design and topography
· Vulnerable road users - Pedestrians/Cyclists
The TM Policy requires a score of > 60 to qualify for traffic management treatments, while scores between 30 and 60 points warrant increased attention to law enforcement and driver education. The assessment for Anchorage Drive, based on a posted speed limit of 60km/h, achieved a score of 32 based primarily on the number of accidents. This score acknowledges that while there are traffic issues on this street these are best dealt with by Police enforcement and community education.
Administration considers that once Council has had the opportunity to consider the community’s support for a reduction in the posted speed limit to 50km/h on Anchorage Drive, to which resolution IN07-11/10 refers, it will be better able to determine what works, if any, are needed to implement Council’s decision.
Statutory Compliance
Nil
Strategic Implications
The proposal accords with the following Outcome Objective of the City’s Strategic Plan 2006 – 2021:
“2 Social
2.4 Improve community safety”
Policy Implications
The City’s Traffic Management Investigation and Implementation Policy is applicable to this petition.
Financial Implications
The City’s Traffic Management Investigation and Implementation Policy was developed to assist Council in managing the allocation of resources to the many requests the City receives for traffic management. By considering a range of criteria it endeavours to separate those roads where issues are considered systemic and need action by the City from those where opportunistic ‘hoon’ are creating isolated issues better handled by police enforcement.
Currently, the City’s 10-Year Capital Works Program (10YCWP) allocates approximately $600,000 of municipal funds to traffic treatments each year. While speeding does occur on Anchorage Drive, Administration considers the TM Policy and the resulting score indicate that an early construction of traffic management treatments, as requested in the petition, at this location cannot be justified ahead of other projects already listed in the 10YCWP.

Issue
To consider a multi-signature letter requesting the installation of speed calming devices and better signage on Langford Boulevard, Madeley.
Background
Council received multi-signature letter PT01-02/12 at its meeting of 7 February 2012. The letter, addressed to the Chief Executive, Main Roads and the Mayor, Wanneroo City Council, reads:
“It has been noted that traffic from Gnangara Road to Kingsway and Wanneroo Road, from Wanneroo Road and the Western end of Kingsway to Gnangara Road are using some or all of the above roads, and mainly via Langford Boulevard.
Many consider this stretch to be a roadway where speed need not be controlled. Many near misses and running over of family pets have also taken place.
This problem has been brought to the notice of Paul Miles MLA, Member of Wanneroo, who in turn had written to Hon Simon O’Brian Minister of Transport as well as the former Mayor of the City of Wanneroo Council, Jon Kelly, on 11th February 2010. However, no action to rectify or control this problem has been forthcoming to date.
We kindly request you to install speed calming devices on Langford Bvd (which is used as a direct link road between Kingsway and Gnangara Road) and better signage as a matter of priority, before there is a serious accident with loss of life.
It must be stressed that many children walk along these streets to school and for leisure, as well as many residents who use the purpose built footpaths, every morning and evening.
You very urgent attention is requested, as a matter of urgency.”
The letter has been signed by six residents. A further 23 signatures are listed on a second page without the text of the request being stated.
Refer to Attachment 1 for a location plan of the subject area.
Detail
In accord with Agreed Structure Plan No.8 for East Wanneroo Cell 6 (Madeley/Darch) Langford Boulevard has been constructed as a Local Distributor Road. The road runs north/south between Russell Road and Kingsway, and is contiguous with Susan Road providing a north/south Local Distributor spine between Gnangara Road and Kingsway. For most of its length, Langford Boulevard is constructed with a 7m wide single carriageway in an 18m wide road reserve. However, the road section between Brittain Avenue and Kingsway is constructed as a boulevard, with divided carriageways each 5m wide, and a 3m wide median, in a 22m road reserve. An aerial view of the road is shown in Attachment 2.
Liveable Neighbourhoods, in listing the function and characteristics of this type of road gives the indicative traffic volume for a Neighbourhood Connector B constructed as a two lane undivided carriageway as 3,000 vehicles per day (vpd), while Main Roads WA (MRWA) lists the capacity of a Local Distributor Road as 6,000 vpd. Currently, the road operates under the default ‘built-up area’ speed limit of 50km/h.
Council at its meeting of 19 October 2010 considered Report IN05-10/10, which reviewed the traffic volumes using the Madeley Local Distributor network since the opening of the Hartman Drive extension. Further, an additional review was undertaken in April 2011 and reported to report Council at its meeting of 7 February 2012 (IN13-02/12 refers).
The following traffic data for Langford Boulevard was obtained during April 2011.

Crash data provided by the WA Police through MRWA records that there have been five reported accidents on Langford Boulevard during the five years 2006 to 2010. Three of these accidents occurred at the Kingsway/Langford Boulevard intersection and two at the Langford Boulevard/Hollins Bend roundabout.
Consultation
No public consultation was undertaken in the preparation of this report.
Comment
Langford Boulevard has been assessed in accordance with the City’s Traffic Management Investigation and Intervention Policy (TM Policy) to determine the justification and the priority of any traffic management works. The TM Policy includes an assessment of the following criteria:
· Speed
· Traffic volumes
· Crash history
· Road design and topography
· Vulnerable road users - Pedestrians/Cyclists
The TM Policy requires a score of > 60 to qualify for traffic management treatments, while scores between 30 and 60 points warrant increased attention to law enforcement and driver education. The assessment for Langford Boulevard achieved a score of 36 south of Russell Road, which acknowledges that while there are traffic issues on this street these are best dealt with by Police enforcement and community education.
The contention that large volumes of traffic are using Langford Boulevard as a link between Kingsway and Gnangara Road is not supported by the traffic data which shows that traffic volumes on Langford Boulevard and Susan Road have decreased since the construction of the Hartman Drive extension (IN13-02/12 refers). The current traffic levels on Langford Boulevard are well within the function and capacity of the road.
With regard to the request for “better signage” it is advised that Main Roads WA (MRWA) has sole authority to authorise, install and maintain all traffic signs and pavement markings in the Perth metropolitan area. In response the City will investigate the current signage to identify any deficiencies against MRWA standards and apply to MRWA for correction where necessary.
The issues of speeding and hooning are considered to be police issues. While the City is concerned for the safety of its residents, its authority and responsibility is limited to the safe construction and maintenance of its roads. Individual drivers have the responsibility to drive within the State road rules. If drivers choose to disregard those rules, the only organization with the authority to enforce compliance is the WA Police.

Strategic Implications
The proposal accords with the following Outcome Objective of the City’s Strategic Plan 2006 – 2021:
“2 Social
2.4 Improve community safety”
Policy Implications
The City’s Traffic Management Investigation and Implementation Policy is applicable to this report.
Financial Implications
The City’s Traffic Management Investigation and Implementation Policy was developed to assist Council in managing the allocation of resources to the many requests the City receives for traffic management. By considering a range of criteria it endeavours to separate those roads where issues are considered systemic and need action by the Council from those where opportunistic ‘hoon’ are creating isolated issues better handled by police enforcement.
Currently, the City’s 10-Year Capital Works Program (10YCWP) allocates approximately $600,000 of municipal funds to traffic treatments each year. While speeding does occur on Langford Boulevard, Administration considers the TM Policy and the resulting score indicate that an early construction of traffic management treatments, as requested in the petition, at this location cannot be justified ahead of other projects already listed in the 10YCWP.

That Council:-
1. In accord with the City’s Traffic Management Investigation and Intervention Policy DOES NOT APPROVE the installation of traffic management treatments along Langford Boulevard, at this time;
2. NOTES that Administration will undertake a review of traffic signage and pavement marking along Langford Boulevard and seek the approval of Main Roads WA for any changes identified;
3. REQUESTS the WA Police to undertake additional speed enforcement of vehicles using Langford Boulevard; and

Background
Petition PT05-02/12, signed by 25 residents, was received by
Council at its meeting of
7 February 2012. The petition reads:
“We the undersigned, all being residents of the City of Wanneroo do formally request Council’s consideration to supply and install rubber speed humps (as installed in Burnett Rd Clarkson) at the east end of Jenolan Wy Merriwa (between Yass Wy and Connelly Dr). We request this due to the increased incidences of speeding and other ‘hoon’ activity in this street.”
Refer to Attachment 1 for a location plan of the subject area.
Detail
Jenolan Way, Merriwa is a Local Distributor Road in the City’s Functional Road Hierarchy and has been constructed with a 9m wide pavement in a 22m wide road reserve.
Liveable Neighbourhoods, in listing the function and characteristics of this type of road gives the indicative traffic volume for a Neighbourhood Connector B constructed as a two lane undivided carriageway as 3,000 vehicles per day (vpd), while Main Roads WA (MRWA) lists the capacity of a Local Distributor Road as 6,000vpd. Currently, the road operates under the default ‘built-up area’ speed limit of 50km/h.
The following traffic data was collected for Jenolan Way Drive during the week commencing 9 May 2011:
Traffic data:
Definitions
AWT - Average Weekday Traffic
vpd - vehicles per day

Consultation
No public consultation was undertaken in the preparation of this report.
Comment
Jenolan Way has been assessed in accordance with the City’s Traffic Management Investigation and Intervention Policy (TM Policy) to determine the justification and the priority of any traffic management works. The TM Policy includes an assessment of the following criteria:
· Speed

Issue
To consider petitions relating to the construction of a footpath in Palm Corner, Quinns Rocks.
Background
Council considered a report into a request to provide a footpath on Palm Corner, Quinns Rocks at its meeting of 23 August 2011 and resolved as follows (IN07-08/11 refers):
“1. APPROVES the construction of 155m of 1.5m wide cast insitu concrete footpath in Palm Corner, between Christian Park and Sirius Ramble, Quinns Rocks, at an estimated cost of $20,000 to be funded from PR-1595 Minor Pathway Projects – Unspecified; and
2. ADVISES the petition organiser of Council’s decision.”
In response to advice to residents that the City had scheduled construction of the footpath two local residents advised of their objection.
Subsequently, Council received petition PT03-02/12 at its meeting of 7 February 2012. The petition reads:
“ We, the undersigned, all being Residents of the City of Wanneroo do formally request Council’s consideration:
Object strongly to the proposal to construct a footpath close to the front boundaries of properties running along the south side of Palm Corner, Quinns Rocks, but would agree to such a pathway being constructed if it abutted against the kerb edge, as is presently the case in nearby streets (such as Santa Barbara Parade, Lorient Pass, Kilborne Street, etc).”
The petition is signed by five residents, representing 5 Palm Corner properties directly affected by the proposed path.
Additionally, at the same meeting, Council received multi-signature letter PT02-02/12, which reads:
“We, the undersigned support the construction of the 1.5m wide concrete footpath from Christian Park to Sirius Ramble as notified on the 25 November 2011”
The letter is signed by 24 petitioners with the organiser being a resident of Palm Corner directly affected by the proposed path. A further page of 26 signatures is attached to the letter. It is assumed that the majority are parents of students of Quinns Beach Primary School as no addresses are provided.
Refer to Attachment 1 for a location plan and Attachment 2 for an aerial view of the street.
Detail
Palm Corner is an “L” shaped access street which intersects with Sirius Ramble opposite the Quinns Beach Primary School.
The section of the street between Christian Park and Sirius Ramble is used by parents to drop-off and pick-up children at the nearby Quinns Beach Primary School. This street is also used as a pedestrian link by students living to the east of the school.
The original request was for the footpath be constructed on the south side of Palm Corner between Christian Park and Sirius Ramble to link with the existing path network through the park and separate students from vehicular traffic during periods of high traffic movements.
Consultation
No additional community consultation has been undertaken in the preparation of this report.
Comment
The function of the road reserve is to provide transport options for all road users: vehicles; pedestrians; and cyclists. Each of these user groups has equal rights to use the road reserve. A footpath provides dedicated infrastructure for pedestrians and provides safe separation of pedestrians and vehicles.
For information Para 7.1.4 of Planning and Design for Pedestrians: Guidelines published by the Department of Transport provides the following comments on pathway location:
Close to kerb
· In many cases is the only option because of the road reserve width available.
· Offers the best visibility of path users to drivers reversing out of their properties, particularly where high screen walls exist at the boundaries.
· Will be used in two directions and allows cyclists to run off the path and ride against the flow of motor traffic on the road pavement. Overseas experience has shown wrong-way movements to be a major problem (Cross and Fisher 1977).
· May result in parked cars being a hazard to cyclists due to the opening of vehicle doors into the path.
· May result in persons entering and exiting parked cars being put at risk due to the proximity of bicycle movements to the cars.
· Follows the longitudinal profile of the kerb and is therefore generally cheaper to construct because of reduced earthworks.
· May be preferred by abutting landowners in terms of privacy and nature strip disruption.
· May result in the effective path width being reduced by kerb returns (however, the use of AS1428.1 style side ramps (see Figure 8 in AS 1428.1) would be of some assistance at driveways or the path profile being adversely affected at the cross over.
· If wide, may be viewed as detracting from the appearance of the streetscape and may imply a higher speed environment.
· Is less pleasant for cyclists because of traffic noise, fumes and speed, and perhaps the splashing of water from gutters.
· May be relatively unaffected by the presence of fences varying in height and type, or having sharp or exposed edges or protrusions.
Near property boundary
· Provides a more pleasant cycling environment and is perceived to be safer for inexperienced or young cyclists.
· May limit visibility of path users to drivers reversing out of driveways, or to drivers turning left from the abutting carriageway, where path users are beyond the driver’s peripheral vision.
· Does not necessarily follow the kerb profile and may result in steeper gradients for cyclists or be more costly to construct.
· May be viewed as having a lower negative visual impact on the street than a kerbside path.
· May be unacceptable to abutting land owners.
· Is more efficient for the mail service, if the nature strip is very wide.
· Should preferably be deviated to a location at least one car length back from road intersections, adjacent to which the path crosses, to facilitate passage behind a queued car).
· Allows space for garbage (e.g. wheelie) bins to be accommodated clear of path and for pit lids for utilities to be located outside of the path surface. Pit lids should not be located within paths as they can create an uncomfortable ride and constitute a trip hazard for pedestrians.
The original path alignment for Palm Corner was chosen to alleviate the need to relocate three streetlights and the removal of a mature tree and two recently planted verge trees. Additionally, where a footpath is located on the kerb it is recommended that its width be increased by 0.5m to provide separation from passing vehicles, allows for doors opening from parked cars, and reduce obstructions from bins on refuse pickup days.
To improve safety for Quinns Rocks Primary School students Administration considers that a footpath along Palm Corner is warranted. In order to meet resident concerns Administration recommends the construction of a 2m wide path adjacent to the kerb.

4. NOTES that a report will be presented to Council on the outcomes of the design/documentation process and the financial impact of the proposed structure.”
Refer Attachment 1, City of Wanneroo Drawing No 2739-1-A, for the location plan. Action was initiated in accordance with these resolutions and Structerre Consulting Engineers (Structerre) was appointed to undertake an investigation of the options available to either repair or replace the structure and prepare a preliminary design of the most suitable option. This report considers the detail and concept of the available option.
Detail
Structerre was appointed to provide the following services:
· Geological testing to determine the adequacy of the retaining walls
· Review of following options:
(a) Partial reconstruction – remove the damaged portions of retaining wall and reconstruct. This option would require assessment to determine the structural adequacy of the major portion of retaining wall which is not damaged/subsided.
(b) Full reconstruction at the existing site – if testing does not allow the retention of the major portion of the retaining wall, reconstruct a similar facility at the existing site.
(c) New construction - construction of a similar new facility within a few metres from the existing facility incorporating a timber boardwalk supported by pile foundations, relocation of the gazebo onto the new structure, demolishing the existing limestone wall/pathway and re-grading the bank to create an extended shoreline.
(d) Any further option determined from on site testing by the appointed consultant.
· Preliminary designs of options
· Preliminary cost estimates
· Report and recommendation of suitable option based on the costs, ease of construction and ongoing maintenance
Geotechnical investigation undertaken by Structerre indicated the following:
· Excavations encountered a sequence of variably compacted fill sand underlying the asphalt veneer / limestone sub base
· Voiding and low compaction was found in all trial pits, with a notable increase in voids for the trial pits excavated behind the wings of the structure
· Down the back of the central portion of the lookout, an irregular concrete pour was noted.
· Concrete was not encountered adjacent to the wings of the structure and this coincides with the majority of the settlement and voiding observed to date
Based on the results of this investigation, it has been established that the wall is failing and will require repair or replacement. The suggested method of repair (installing piles to accommodate the retained load) will require the removal of the wooden tiled roof structure. It was noted that a piling contractor would not be able to access the site with the structure in its present location. The variation of the lake water level throughout the year was contributing to the undermining of the limestone walls, thus making the walls unstable.
Further discussions with Structerre indicated that it would be difficult to reconstruct the structure at the same location due to the site constraints, with the potential of undermining of any new structure due to variation in the water levels in the lake. It was therefore suggested that the only other viable option is to construct a similar structure (noted as Option 5 in the report IN03-02/11 considered by Council on 8 February 2011) west of the current location. This option is described below:
“Construction of a similar new facility incorporating a timber boardwalk supported by pile foundations, relocation of the gazebo onto the new structure, demolishing the existing limestone wall/pathway and regrading the bank to create an extended shoreline”.
A concept design of this option was prepared and cost to implement this option was estimated to be in the order of $210,000. This estimated cost was significantly greater than the budget of $164,000 allocated in the approved 2011/12 Capital Works Program and therefore considered to be prohibitive.
A further option was developed as described below:
“the relocation of the gazebo onto an adjoining elevated location west of the existing location, construction of a new retaining wall, regrading of the lake shoreline, demolishing the existing limestone wall/pathway and regrading the bank to create an extended shoreline”.
This option is estimated to cost $165,000 which is close to the allocated funds for this project. This option allows for the provision of a gazebo structure overlooking the lake, thus providing a setting similar to that of the current location.
The existing facility can remain for partial use whilst the new one is constructed and can be demolished upon the commissioning of the new facility.
Structerre also suggested that prior to progressing further and preparing a detailed structural design, it would be necessary to prepare a concept plan describing the new structure.
Accordingly, a concept plan has now been prepared as per City of Wanneroo Drawing No 2739-2-A (refer Attachment 2) for the purpose of community consultation. The detailed design and construction phases of the project will be subject to the outcomes of the community consultation.
Consultation
Structerre has provided engineering advice. It is also proposed to consult with the Landsdale Residents’ Association and the local community on the concept plan for the proposed works.
Comment
In view of the specialist structural engineering advice and the site constraints, the proposed option to relocate the gazebo and associated works at the adjoining location, as shown on the concept plan and demolition of the existing structure is an appropriate option and is supported. This option will provide a new stable structure for the community use and allow the City to demolish the existing structure after the new one is constructed.

3.22 Budget Variation for WA Police Community Crime Prevention Fund Contribution for Boxercise Program
File Ref: 3764 – 12/17640
Responsible Officer: Director, Community Development
Disclosure of Interest: Nil
Attachments: Nil
Issue
To consider a Budget Variation for funding received for a youth “Boxercise” program at Carramar Community Centre.
Background
Community Programs and Services have recently been successful in applying for, and receiving $11,468 from the Strategic Crime Prevention Unit (WA Police). This grant is to fund a trial Boxercise program at Carramar Community Centre to engage a range of local young people. It aims to reduce youth anti-social behaviour and improve youth engagement.
The funding received is unbudgeted and requires Council consideration to incorporate it into the City’s operating budget.
Detail
The Carramar youth program is a relatively new one that engages local young people. Current numbers have been small but consistent (around 20). Recent participant surveys show the older attendees would like more vibrant and active activities.
The North West Crime Prevention Unit has supported this idea and Police staff have committed to attending the program once a month, to further build the rapport between WA police, young people and the community. Also the end of each term will feature a local self defence club coming to host a “have-a-go type” clinic on their specific discipline. The aim of these clinics is to expose the participants to a broad range of activities and club contacts in the hope of some young people joining and committing to an external activity.
The addition of the Boxercise program is seen as a complementary physical fitness program to meet unmet demand.
Consultation
Informal surveys were done by Outreach Services and the Youth Support Worker with the local youths to determine if a program of this nature would be suitable. WA Police was also consulted during the grant application process.
Comment
The existing Carramar youth program was established to address past issues of antisocial behaviour from some local youth. This Boxercise program will support other existing programs at Carramar Community Centre and is seen to be a valuable tool to link young people to beneficial networks and other services.
The program will have ongoing benefits as it increases the participants’ awareness of other City of Wanneroo services and local sporting clubs. It will assist in increasing the amount of physical activity available to the participants and it is anticipated, that if successful, the program will continue at Carramar Community Centre and be replicated in other zones.

To receive commentary on the Budget Principles and Parameters providing guidance in the development of the 2012/2013 Annual Budget and 10 Year Strategic Financial Management Plan 2012/2013 to 2021/2022.
Background
During the period of 2008-2009, the Western Australian Local Government Association (WALGA) and eight Perth Metropolitan Growth Councils engaged PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PWC) to undertake a review of the rate setting processes and financial strategies for the Outer Metropolitan Growth Councils of WA. This resulted in the preparation of a report titled “Western Australian Local Government Association Rate Setting Processes, Funding Amenity and Service Sustainability of WA Outer Metropolitan Growth Councils”. This report advocated a best practice approach for rate setting processes for the Local Government Industry.
Using the above report as guidance, the Council at its Meeting of 10 March 2009 (CS03-03/09), adopted a set of Budget Principles to guide the development of the 2009/2010 Annual Budget and 10 Year Strategic Financial Management Plan (10 Yr SFMP). To ensure the relevance of the Budget Principles over time Administration subsequently review them on an annual basis, prior to the development of the Annual Budgets, which are duly presented to Council for their endorsement in February/March each year. For the 2011/2012 Annual Budget development and 10 Yr SFMP revision, the report was presented and endorsed at the 9 March 2011 Council Meeting, resulting in the adoption of the following principles:
“a) The budget shall be prepared consistent with the Best Practice Rating Strategy as detailed in the PWC report.
b) The aim is to achieve a ‘balanced’ operating budget (Improved actual performance will enhance the closing position).
c) Extraordinary income (such as proceeds from sale of land) shall not be used as a source of funds in the same financial year as it is proposed to be received. (Funds will be deposited in a Reserve to be called on in subsequent years).
d) The budgeted income for Investments shall be based on an average market return as measured against the UBS Warburg 90 Day Bank Bill Index and/or the Cash Rate (unless a higher level is certain).
e) The rate setting strategy for the next ten financial years be based on a rate in the dollar increase of CPI plus 3-6% (with growth factored in at 4%) as supported by the Price Waterhouse Coopers report “Western Australian Local Government Association Rate setting processes, funding amenity and service sustainability of WA outer metropolitan growth councils”.
f) The adoption of the ‘expenditure by category’ table to reflect the Municipal funding capacity.
g) Explore opportunities to increase the level of commercial return from facilities through broadening the range of products and services provided; and
h) In developing each successive annual budget, opportunities will be explored to achieve operational efficiencies across the organisation.”
Furthermore, a report reviewing the 10 Yr SFMP was presented to and endorsed by Council at its meeting of 13 December 2011. This report sought to provide Council with a more contemporary analysis of the 10 Yr SFMP, recognising the need to make some adjustments to assumptions and allow for other factors effecting future financial projections. The recommendation stated that Council:
“1. ENDORSES the revised 10 Year Financial Management Plan 2011/2012 – 2020/2021; and
2. NOTES a further report will be provided during the lead up to the 2012/2013 budget to consider amendments to the Guiding Budget Principals.”
In terms of acknowledging amendments to the previously endorsed Principals, there is only one significant change, which relates to point e) in that proposed rate increases are to be calculated at CPI plus 2-3%, down from CPI plus 3-6%. This change reflects the improvement achieved in the City’s financial sustainability, however, it must be noted that if economic factors change, the level of rate increase may need to be reviewed.
The adopted Budget Principles reflect a prudent and conservative approach to budget development, which are designed to progressively enhance the City’s financial sustainability. This approach has seen a steady improvement in the underlying position.

As a matter of good corporate governance, Budget Principles and the 10 Yr SFMP requires annual review to ensure all elements and parameters retain their continuing relevance and support our financial sustainability throughout the forthcoming 10 year period.
In preparing for the annual budget process, which will include a series of workshops with Elected Members, information has been compiled on a range of factors that will play an important role in the 2012/2013 Budget. Whilst generic industry information is available (see Attachment 1 - WALGA Economic Briefing), specific information relevant to the City is outlined below:
Growth Factors
At Wanneroo, the following growth areas are materially relevant:
1. Growth in the overall number of “Created Lots” which translates to rateable properties. At January 2012, the City had added 1,432 new properties. Whilst this figure is slightly lower in comparison to previous periods for the City, it is still however a considerable increase when compared to other local government authorities. The graph below presents the new lots created on a monthly basis and compares against the past 2 years. It is of note that January was particularly low.
2. Growth in the number of “Developed Lots” is historically lower than the number of Lots created and can vary significantly depending on economic, environmental and household affordability factors. Recent figures indicate a further addition of 1,324 homes for 2011/2012 year to date. Similar to the statistics of New Lots Created, the number of Lots Developed is lower (slightly) than previous periods however still present strong levels of development.
3. Growth in population drives the demand on infrastructure and services. Being that there is a direct link between Developed Lots and resident population, the City can expect strong growth to continue into the future based on ongoing trend analysis. Historically the City has experienced relatively high levels of population growth, which peaked at in excess of 8% at June 2007 and gradually reduced over the subsequent years to levels of approximately 5%.
Currently year to date figures across the three growth categories reflects an annualised growth rate of 4%-4.25% over the previous 12 months. For budgeting purposes, an estimated growth factor of approximately 5% is forecast for the City over the coming financial year.
Carbon Tax
On Tuesday 8 November 2011, Federal Parliament passed the Governments Clean Energy Future legislation, designed to establish a carbon price mechanism to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere. The Government then announced that the new carbon tax of $23 per tonne, to start on 1 July 2012, will be a fixed price until 2015.
It is estimated that approximately 60% of Australia’s carbon pollution will be covered by the carbon price, including pollution from waste, energy generation and industrial processes. The ramifications and financial impact of this for the City over the short, medium and long term is yet to be determined however it is anticipated Councils will be impacted as producers of emissions (landfill operations) and as consumers of goods and services (increases attributable to the carbon price and passed on through the supply chain – particularly from electricity increases).
It should be noted however, that whilst the City will incur additional costs, which will more than likely need to be passed on through rates, there are mechanisms established through the legislation to provide residents with some level of relief through tax rebates etc.
Consumer Price Index (CPI)
As detailed in the table below, Perth CPI has been relatively stable over recent quarters, with the annual figure at December 2011 close to 3%, following two relatively low quarters (December is traditionally relatively low). The annualised rate is in line with previous forecasts.
Future CPI forecasts from Access Economics for the next 12 months are anticipated to be in the vicinity of 3.1%. While the long term effect of the proposed Carbon Tax is yet to be factored in, the Commonwealth Treasury has however made public its estimates that carbon pricing will raise the CPI by an estimated 0.7% in 2012/2013. A second CPI increase of 0.2% is expected in 2015/2016. The following table reflects the national historical CPI movements and forecast, incorporating one-off effects. Furthermore, through an economic briefing report prepared by WALGA in January 2012 (attachment 1), it is stated that CPI is estimated to increase by 3.5% through 2012/2013 (which includes an estimated 0.7% increase associated with the introduction of the Carbon Tax in July 2012). The City believes it is prudent to apply this figure in the preparation of the forthcoming draft budget.
Carbon Pricing on CPI Compared to History
Workforce Expenses
Staff resourcing costs are the single largest contributor to the operational costs of the organisation, hence a major part of the recent review of the 10 Yr SFMP was regarding the workforce levels and associated expenses. The report detailed that forecasts for Employee Costs were to be adjusted to reflect an immediate increase in the establishment to meet current shortfall, with subsequent adjustments in the out years.
The latest Salaried Officers Collective Agreement is currently out to vote, the result of which will provide clarification for the next three years. It is interesting to note that the Wage Price Index forecasts increases above CPI due to the continuing tight labour market in Western Australia.
Electricity
With the cost of producing power continuing to rise, the City is mindful of the effect any price increase may have on its operations. A high importance is placed on closely monitoring the usage and cost estimates, with regular communications between WALGA, Western Power and Synergy a priority. Currently Western Power’s recommended price path is a CPI +16.4% increase in 2012/2013 followed by a CPI+11.1% to 11.5% increase in each of the following four years.
Estimates of the Carbon Tax impact on Electricity charges remains unclear due to the extent that energy producers will benefit from rebates or be able to pass on costs, however some estimates are in the order of a rise of 10.0%. Further enquiries are being made into what factor has been allowed in the 16.4% rise foreshadowed.
As usual, the growth in the cost associated with street lighting will be a major factor in the Electricity Budget. This will be exacerbated by Synergy advising of a correction in the number of street lights used in calculating the annual charge. This will take effect in the current financial year and be addressed through the midyear budget review, effectively increasing the number of street lights by 10%.
Interest Rates
At its meeting of 7 February 2012 the Reserve Bank of Australia left the cash rate unchanged at 4.25%, per details below:
“Information becoming available since the December meeting confirms that economic conditions in Europe were weakening late last year, with risks still skewed to the downside. Reflecting this, most forecasters have lowered their forecasts for world GDP growth this year to a below trend pace. That said, recent data from the United States suggest a continuing moderate expansion after a soft patch in mid 2011. Growth in China has moderated as was intended, but on most indicators remained quite robust through the second half of last year. Conditions around other parts of Asia have softened. Commodity prices declined for some months to be noticeably off their peaks, but over the past couple of months have risen somewhat and remain at quite high levels.
The acute financial pressures on banks in Europe were alleviated considerably late in 2011 by the actions of policymakers. Much remains to be done to put European sovereigns and banks on a sound footing, but some progress has been made. Financial market sentiment, though remaining skittish, has generally improved since early December. Share markets have risen and term funding markets have re-opened, including for Australian banks, albeit at increased cost compared with the situation prevailing in mid 2011.
Information on the Australian economy continues to suggest growth close to trend, with differences between sectors. Labour market conditions softened during 2011 and the unemployment rate increased slightly in mid year, though it has been steady over recent months. CPI inflation has declined as expected, as the large rises in food prices resulting from the floods a year ago have been unwinding. Year-ended CPI inflation will fall further over the next quarter or two. In underlying terms, inflation is around 2½ per cent. Over the coming one to two years, and abstracting from the effects of the carbon price, the Bank expects inflation to be in the 2–3 per cent range.
Credit growth remains modest, though there has been a slight increase in demand for credit by businesses. Housing prices showed some sign of stabilising at the end of 2011, after having declined for most of the year. The exchange rate has risen further, even though the terms of trade have started to decline. This is largely a reflection of a decline in the euro against all currencies. Nonetheless, the Australian dollar in trade-weighted terms is somewhat higher than the Bank had previously assumed.
At today's meeting, the Board noted that interest rates for borrowers have declined to be close to their medium-term average, as a result of the actions at the Board's previous two meetings. With growth expected to be close to trend and inflation close to target, the Board judged that the setting of monetary policy was appropriate for the moment. Should demand conditions weaken materially, the inflation outlook would provide scope for easier monetary policy. The Board will continue to monitor information on economic and financial conditions and adjust the cash rate as necessary to foster sustainable growth and low inflation.”
In terms of future forecasts, 3.75% has been identified for 2013 (Westpac, Bloomberg).
Building Regulation Reform
The implementation of the new Building Act was delayed. The implementation date has been changed from the 1 January 2012 to 2 April 2012. The postponing of the Act is to allow Building Commission to further develop and finalise the new Building Regulations and more time to educate the relevant stakeholders i.e. local governments and builders, in the understanding of this reform. The effect of these changes (both financial and otherwise) are yet to be clearly determined and will be closely monitored through the transition. Conservative estimates of income for 2012/2013 may be warranted to ensure shortfalls in income projections are not experienced.
Waste Services
One of the major factors in the cost of the waste service operation is the gate fees levied by the Mindarie Regional Council. Whilst there are no clear indications at this stage as to pricing structure for 2012/2013, there is a likely impact arising from the introduction of the Carbon Tax.
Landfill sites with annual emissions exceeding 25,000 tonnes of CO2-e will be required to pay the carbon tax (Tamala Park is likely to be in this category). It is estimated that the carbon price per tonne of waste delivered to landfill will be in the order of $35.70. Therefore, based on average disposal rates per household and subject to clarification on waste diversion rates, this could add up to $35.00 to the annual cost of waste collection and disposal per household.
Expenditure by Category
Recognising that the City has over recent years undertaken substantial NEW infrastructure projects, in the current uncertain economic environment it is necessary to optimise available funding capacity with a cautious approach. The Budget Principles therefore included a funding strategy to achieve the best long-term sustainable outcome from the available Municipal funding source, in the main with the following material categories. The amounts allocated to each category and the related projects will be explained in Budget Workshop One Capital Works Program.

Expenditure By Category |

Provision to repay loan |
Work is currently being undertaken to update the table to reflect revised funding capacity and priorities within categories, recognising internal and external influences that need to be factored into the City’s long term considerations.
Community Facilities Plan
Recently presented to and endorsed at the 7 February 2012 Council Meeting were the following two reports: Finalisation of Northern Coastal Growth Corridor Community Facilities Plan and Northern Coastal Growth Corridor Contributions. These reports detailed the future planning requirements and funding sources for the northern growth areas of the City.
It is accordingly acknowledged that these reports have assisted in identifying timing and roles and responsibilities of future plans, which will ultimately direct City budgets. Furthermore it is noted that Developers will accept much of the infrastructure costs, while Municipal funds will need to be identified for future operational cost impacts.
Integrated Planning Framework
New legislation has come into place requiring all local governments to meet a specific Integrated Planning Framework process. This process builds on an already strong strategic planning process that the City has in place. A major focus of the compliance is to seek additional community consultation and engagement. This process will be undertaken over the coming 18 months, prior to 30 June 2013. Actions are already underway with some minor cost impact likely for the 2012/2013 Budget.
Council and EMT Budget Workshops
The 2012/2013 Budget Development Program and review of the 10 Yr SFMP would generally take the following form:
Budget Workshop 1 – Tuesday 20 March 2012
• Review detailed draft 10 Year Capital Works Program.
• Consider adjustments required in timing/staging of existing projects.

Comment
The adherence to the Adopted Budget Principles and a continued tight budgetary control has kept the City’s financial results in a favourable position. Currently the Mid-Year Budget Review is being undertaken across the entire organisation and will be reported to Council on 6 March 2012. Early indications suggest the review will identify a forecast end of year position closely aligned to the Budget.
It should be noted that the effects of the European Economic Crisis will however have a flow on impact across the global economy and on to the local economy for the foreseeable future. These effects are likely to highlight some uncertainties for future trends and projections.
With the uncertainties associated with the international economic situation, impacting on confidence within local markets, together with flow on impacts from the introduction of the Carbon Tax and normal growth constraints, it is anticipated the 2012/13 Budget will be a challenging process.
However, through the adoption and guidance of the Budget Principals, Administration can ensure that a prudent and transparent process is followed when developing forward financial plans. This has subsequently assisted the City in effectively managing its finances through the global financial crises and should continue to assist through future review periods.
Accordingly, it is anticipated that the Budget Principles as amended should be reaffirmed:
a) The budget shall be prepared consistent with the Best Practice Rating Strategy as detailed in the PWC report.
b) The aim is to achieve a ‘balanced’ operating budget (Improved actual performance will enhance the closing position).
c) Extraordinary income (such as proceeds from sale of land) shall not be used as a source of funds in the same financial year as it is proposed to be received. (Funds will be deposited in a Reserve to be called on in subsequent years).
d) The budgeted income for Investments shall be based on an average market return as measured against the UBS Warburg 90 Day Bank Bill Index and/or the Cash Rate (unless a higher level is certain).
e) The
rate setting strategy for the next ten financial years be based on a rate in
the dollar increase of CPI plus 3-6% 2-3%. (with growth
factored in at 4%) as supported by the Price Waterhouse Coopers report
“Western Australian Local Government Association Rate setting processes,
funding amenity and service sustainability of WA outer metropolitan growth
councils”.
f) The adoption of the ‘expenditure by category’ table to reflect the Municipal funding capacity.
g) Explore opportunities to increase the level of commercial return from facilities through broadening the range of products and services provided; and
h) In developing each successive annual budget, opportunities will be explored to achieve operational efficiencies across the organisation.
Statutory Compliance
The budget development will be in accordance with relevant requirements of the Local Government Act 1995 and related Regulations.

CITY OF WANNEROO Agenda OF Elected Members' Briefing Session 28 February, 2012 179
File Ref: 2935 – 12/7877
Responsible Officer: Director, Corporate Strategy and Performance
Disclosure of Interest: Nil
Attachments: 2
Issue
To seek authorisation to take further action against the owner of the property at 38 Lakeview Street, Mariginiup due to unpaid rates in excess of three years.
Background
Under Section 6.64(1)(b) of the Local Government Act 1995 (the Act), if any rates or service charges due to a local government have been unpaid for at least 3 years, the local government may take possession of the land and proceed to sell it. Section 6.68(1) of the Act prevents the local government from exercising the power of sale unless the local government has at least once attempted to recover money due to it under Section 6.56 of the Act, through instituting proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction.
Section 6.68 (2) goes on to state that:
“6.68 Exercise of power to sell land
(2) A local government is not required to attempt under section 6.56 to recover money due to it before exercising the power of sale where the local government -
(a) has a reasonable belief that the cost of the proceedings under that section will equal or exceed the value of the land: or
(b) having made reasonable efforts to locate the owner of the property is unable to do so.”
The property at 38 Lakeview Street, Mariginiup, has outstanding rates and service charges of $21,924.77. Rates have been unpaid since 2008. The property is in the name of Lakewood Estate Development (No 1) Pty Ltd (Attachment 1 and 2 refers) and has improvements in the form of a house and various sheds, with previous evidence of rural activity, however not actively over the last few years.
Details of the attempts by the City to recover the debt and locate the owners of the property at 38 Lakeview Street, Mariginiup are as follows:
· On the 3 March 2009 the City lodged a General Procedure Claim, Case Number JO2009/519 through the Joondalup Court.
· The Perth Bailiff served the General Procedure Claim on 13 March 2009.
· The City then lodged Judgement in default with the Joondalup Court on 1 April 2009.
· The project manager from Lakewood Estate Development (No. 1) Pty Ltd then contacted the City by phone on 5 May 2009 advising that the property was going to be sold, at this time the amount of rates owing were advised.
· On 7 July 2009 the City lodged a Property Seizure and Sale Order (PSSO) through the Joondalup Court.
· After numerous attempts by the Joondalup Bailiff and the Perth Bailiff to serve the PSSO it was returned on 14 April 2010 as no contact could be made with Lakewood Estate Development (No.1) Pty Ltd.
· A letter was sent to the Mortgagee on 16 April 2010. No response received from this letter.
· On the 29 April 2010 the City contacted David Evans Real Estate as they were recorded as managing the adjoining property at 54 Lakeview Street, Mariginiup in the name of Lakewood Estate Development (No. 2) Pty Ltd. They advised they did not manage the property, however, the contact details that they provided were the same as the City’s records.
· In January 2012, a company search on the Australian Securities & Investments Commission (ASIC) revealed that Lakewood Estate Development (No. 1) Pty Ltd is no longer a registered company (deregistered 2009) and that Strike-off Action was in progress against Lakewood Estates Development (No. 2) Pty Ltd.
In order to take possession of the property and proceed with its sale the City must cause notice requiring the payment of rates under Schedule 6.3 of the Act (in this instance Local Public Notice). Such notice is also to be served on any party with an interest in the land, such as the Mortgagees and is to be also posted on the City’s official notice board for a period of not less than 35 days. If at the expiration of 3 months from the date of issue of this notice the rates remain unpaid, the City can proceed with selling the land by public auction, with such auction to occur not more than 12 months from the date of the notice.
If the matter takes this course and the property is sold by public auction, under Clause 5 of Schedule 6.3 of the Act, the outstanding rates, any additional legal expenses and the costs of the sale or incidental to the sale of the property can be recovered by the City. Any residual amount from the sale of the property is to be held by the City in the event of the owners making a claim. If after 12 months the amount has not been claimed, the residual funds are to be paid into the Supreme Court under Section 99 of the Trustees Act. If unclaimed after a further six years, the residual amount is to be paid into the Consolidated Fund of the State Government.
Under the provisions of Section 6.71 of the Act, if the land is offered for sale but at the expiration of 12 months a contract for the sale of the land has not been entered into by the local government, the local government may transfer or convey the estate in fee simple in the land to itself or the Crown. The land must be offered for sale before the City can cause the land to be transferred to itself or the Crown.
Detail
It appears that the house located on the property is tenanted and there is activity around the sheds, however cooperation has not been forthcoming from tenants in respect to contacting the owners.
All attempts by Administration to recover the outstanding rates and service charges through the debt recovery process have failed. It has been ascertained that Lakewood Estate Development (No 1) Pty Ltd do not reside at the property and no longer conduct business from the registered address. As the company has been deregistered, the City has been unable to determine any relevant contact details.
The lot details are as follows:
· Lot Type: Freehold
· Area: 8.2202 ha
· Certificate of Title: Vol 556 Folio 102A
· Zoning: Rural Resource
· Status: Developed
Any additional costs incurred by the City in seeking to recover the debt can be recovered from the proceeds of sale.
There is a mortgage on the property held by H G & R Securities and a memorial from Taxation Administration Act 2003, Section 76 (Land Tax).
Consultation
Nil
Comment
The sale of any property to recover unpaid rates and service charges is not a course of action. Administration normally wishes to pursue as other legal proceedings have generally proven to be successful. However, as the City is unable to locate any further details for Lakewood Estate Development (No. 1) Pty Ltd, there appears to be no other option but to proceed with the sale.
Administration has used this course of action and proceeded to take possession of four properties on separate occasions in the past eight years. On each occasion the land was not occupied, and in three instances the owners came forward and took their own action to sell the property and pay their outstanding rates and charges. On the other occasion the City did proceed with the sale of the property.
Statutory Compliance
The proposed action to take possession of the land and sale by public auction is in accordance with provisions of the Local Government Act 1995.
Strategic Implications
The proposal accords with the following Outcome Objective of the City’s Strategic Plan 2006 – 2021:
“4 Governance
4.6 Provide and maintain a high standard of governance and accountability”
Policy Implications
Nil
Financial Implications
There are no negative financial implications for the City. Outstanding rates and service charges will be able to be recovered from the proceeds of sale together with any additional costs associated with further legal action plus the costs of the sale of the property or incidental to the sale of the property.

Responsible Officer: Director, Corporate Strategy and Performance
Disclosure of Interest: Nil
Attachments: 27
Issue
To consider making a recommendation to the Director General of the Department of Local Government that the basis for rating various land parcels be changed from unimproved value to gross rental value.
Background
Section 6.28 of the Local Government Act 1995 requires the Minister to determine the method of valuation of land to be used by a local government and publish a notice of the determination in the Government Gazette.
In determining the method of valuation to be used by a local government, the Minister is to have regard to the principle that the basis for a rate on any land is to be either: -
a) Where the land is used predominantly for rural purposes, the unimproved value of the land; and
b) Where the land is used predominantly for non-rural purposes, the gross rental value of the land.
This authority has been delegated to the Director General of the Department of Local Government.
Each local government has a role in ensuring that the rating principles of the Local Government Act 1995 are correctly applied to rateable land within their district.
Detail

29. Lots 130-135 DP71886 Conti Road, Ashby
On 5 March 2010 the City received a subdivision application for Lot 9604 DP54314 Conti Road, Ashby. The City supported the subdivision application and a letter was sent to the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) on 29 March 2010.
WAPC subsequently approved the subdivision application and Lots 130-135 DP71886 Conti Road, Ashby were created (Attachment 25 refers).
The current method of valuation of land used for each of these lots is unimproved value. Following subdivision, the predominant use of the properties has changed to non-rural. In order to maintain an equitable rates base and in accordance with Section 6.28 of the Local Government Act 1995, it is recommended that the method of valuing the land be changed from unimproved value to gross rental value for Lots 130-135 DP71886 Conti Road, Ashby.
Consultation
Guidelines issued by the Department of Local Government recommend that affected property owners be informed of proposed changes to the method of valuing their property, although a modified consultation process may be considered where the change is driven by large scale subdivisions.
Consultation is not considered necessary, as the request to have the use of the land changed was received in writing from the owners of the properties, therefore the change in the method of valuation effectively follows automatically.
A detailed list providing the name(s) of the owner(s) for each property has been provided under separate cover to Elected Members.
Comment
Under Section 6.28 of the Local Government Act 1995 the Minister for Local Government is to determine the method of valuation of land. The Minister’s approval is required before the method of valuation of a property can be changed.
The Department of Local Government has confirmed that the process of subdivision does not automatically give rise to a change in the method of valuing land. Instead, upon receiving advice from a local authority the Minister is required to make a determination and advise the Valuer General accordingly.
The lots have been created and as a result the use has changed to Residential, which is non-rural.
Statutory Compliance
Section 6.28 of the Local Government Act 1995 requires the Minister to determine the method of valuation to be used by a local government and publish a notice of the determination in the Government Gazette.-
“(1) The Minister is to –
(a) determine the method of valuation of land to be used by a local government as the basis for a rate; and
(b) publish a notice of the determination in the Government Gazette.
(2) In determining the method of valuation of land to be used by a local government the Minister is to have regard to the general principle that the basis for a rate on any land is to be –
(a) where the land is used predominantly for rural purposes, the unimproved value of the land; and
(b) where the land is used predominantly for non-rural purposes, the gross rental value of land.”
The Department of Local Government has advised that the powers under Section 6.28 of the Local Government Act 1995 have been delegated to the Director General of the Department. In addition, the Department has advised that the effective date of the change is the date of the Director General’s approval.
Strategic Implications
The proposal accords with the following Outcome Objective of the City’s Strategic Plan 2006 – 2021:
“4 Governance
4.6 Provide and maintain a high standard of governance and accountability”
Policy Implications
Nil
Financial Implications
The change in basis of rating to gross rental value as opposed to the unimproved value will result in the owners making a more equitable contribution to the City’s rate income.

CITY OF WANNEROO Agenda OF Elected Members' Briefing Session 28 February, 2012 225
File Ref: 2093 – 12/5826
Responsible Officer: Director, Corporate Strategy and Performance
Disclosure of Interest: Nil
Attachments: Nil
Issue
To consider a waiver in rates for properties rated in the differential rate category of Caravan Parks due to the 2011 Gross Rental Valuation (GRV) revaluation for the majority of the properties in this rating category not being received by the due date for the implementation of the 2011/12 rates.
Background
In August 2011, the City received a letter from the Manager of the Wanneroo Caravan Park, expressing amongst other things concern over the rate increases experienced over recent years.
Every three years, the City receives updated Gross Rental Valuations (GRVs) for all properties from the Valuer General’s Office (VGO). This occurred in 2011 for the 2011/12 rating year. Whilst valuations normally increase (although not in all cases), there can be substantial variations in the percentage increase within a rating category or across different suburbs.
Local Governments are restricted in how it differentially rates and cannot take into account individual properties. When a decision is made to differentially rate, it is then done by category level, which in this case is the ‘Caravan Parks Improved’ category. The City is mindful of the impact on rates as a result of revaluations when undertaking the budget process and determining the rate in the dollar to be levied for each category. Where at a category level there has been a substantial increase in valuations, the City attempts to neutralise this effect prior to calculating the new rate in the dollar. Whilst this is effective at the category level, at an individual property level, the City cannot nullify the variations in valuations.
With the Caravan Parks Improved category, in 2010/11 the City budgeted to receive $121,760 in rates from the 98 properties covered by this category. In 2011/12, an across the board 5.9% increase in rates was proposed, which would see total rates from that category increase to $128,949. To achieve this, recognising that there had been a slight increase in the overall valuation of the 98 properties in the category, the rate in the dollar only needed to be increased by 2.7% to actually achieve a 5.9% increase in rates received on the higher valuation.
Whilst overall income for the category only increased by 5.9%, it was noted that the rate levied for Wanneroo Caravan Park actually increased in the order of 30%. In assessing why the rates for that property increased at a rate substantially higher than the 5.9%, the following key factors have been identified:
· The valuation for the property increased by 29% (which is a similar result for residential valuations);
· The valuation for one of the other properties within the category was significantly reduced; and
· The valuation for one other multiple dwelling property was not updated by the VGO.
At the time of the 2011/12 budget preparation, the City had not received from the Valuer General’s Office, the GRV as part of the revaluation process for the Caravan Park situated at 30 Mangano Place, Wanneroo. As a result the City had no alternative but to adopt the rates as modelled on the existing GRV. If the GRV revaluation had been received prior to the budget process (in line with all the other valuations within the category), the rate in the dollar levied on the Caravan Parks Improved category would have been set proportionately lower to levy the required total.
In August, 2011 the City received the GRV revaluation for the Mangano Place properties and as a result additional rate income of $5,063.82 was levied.
Detail
The City levied rates for the 2011/12 financial year totalling $128,948.12. With the amended GRV for the Caravan Park at 30 Mangano Place, Wanneroo, the City has levied an additional $5,063.82 in rate income.
As a result of the additional interim rate levied, the following table reflects the proportionate amount that each property in the category has paid over that which would have been charged had a lower rate in the dollar applied. This impact could actually be nullified through a corresponding waiver of rates:

Comment
Revaluations can make a significant impact on the consistency of rates for particular properties and whilst the Council endeavours to neutralise the impact of revaluations in its rate setting processes, it is not practical or indeed legal to deal at the individual property level.
In the case of the Caravan Parks Improved category, it was the City’s intention to raise $128,949 in rates from the 98 properties in that category. Had all revaluations been received prior to the budget adoption, the adopted rate in the dollar would have been lower and therefore the $128,949 would have been levied in slightly different proportions.
The revaluation has now been received and interim rate levied on the applicable property, effectively increasing the rates from the category by $5063.82. In order to recognise the original intent it is proposed to waive the additional rates levied for each of the 98 properties rated in the Caravan Park category.
Whilst the largest factor impacting on the rates levied in the Caravan Parks Improved category was the reduced valuation allocated against one of the properties, the waiver of rates equivalent to the latest interim rating is considered to be an equitable initiative.
Statutory Compliance
Section 6.47 of the Local Government Act 1995 allows the local government to
“Subject to the Rates and Charges (Rebates and Deferments) Act 1992, a local government may at the time of imposing a rate or service charge or at a later date resolve to waive* a rate or service charge or resolve to grant other concessions in relation to a rate or service charge.
* Absolute majority required.”
Strategic Implications
The proposal accords with the following Outcome Objective of the City’s Strategic Plan 2006 – 2021:
“4 Governance
4.6 Provide and maintain a high standard of governance and accountability”
Policy Implications
Nil
Financial Implications
The waiver of the amount of $5,063.82 will only nullify the interim rates that have been levied as a result of the amended valuations.

CITY OF WANNEROO Agenda OF Elected Members' Briefing Session 28 February, 2012 281
File Ref: 1859 – 12/11339
Responsible Officer: Director, Corporate Strategy and Performance
Disclosure of Interest: Nil
Attachments: 4
Issue
To consider the Financial Activity Statement for the period ended 31 December 2011.
Background
Regulation 34(1) of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations 1996 requires a local government to prepare each month a statement of financial activity, presented according to nature and type, by program, or by business unit. Administration has opted to present the statement of financial activity by nature and type and in a similar format to that presented in the 2011/2012 Annual Budget. This format separates Revenue and Expenses from Other Revenue and Expenses and provides improved disclosure of the City’s underlying Operating Result.
The Financial Activity Statement is in the form of an Income Statement, which compares year to date actual income and expenses with the year to date budget, shows variances and the adopted and revised budgets (if any). Revised budget figures are inclusive of endorsed amendments from Council (including the Mid Year Budget Review). It is accompanied by a Balance Sheet together with information relating to Capital Projects, an Investment Portfolio Summary, Statement of Net Current Assets and Rate Setting Statement.
In addition to the above, Regulation 34(5) of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations 1996 requires a local government to adopt a percentage or value, calculated in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, to be used in statements of financial activity for reporting material variances. For the 2011/2012 financial year Council has adopted 10% for the reporting of variances, which is in line with previous years.
Detail
The Financial Activity Statement and December year to date financial performances of the City are detailed in Attachments 1, 2, 3 and 4.
Consultation

Full Year Revised Budget 133.842
Operating Grants, Subsidies and Contributions
Currently Operating Grants, Subsidies and Contributions reflect an unfavourable variance of 33% (-$1.729 million). The main contributor towards this variance relates to State Government funded Grant revenues, of which the outstanding balance totalling $5.798 million is expected to be received throughout the balance of the financial year. However as per previous years, the City received in June 2011 an early payment from the Grants Commission of its first quarterly instalment for 2011/2012 for $1.306 million with a subsequent payment of $0.985 million received during October. Hence an adjustment will be included as part of the Mid Year Budget Review in January 2012 to reflect the timing difference of the payment from the Grants Commission.
Fees and Charges
Fees and Charges income as at the end of December are behind year to date budget by 14% (-$1.596 million). The primary reason for this variance falls under the Service Fee Income area reflecting an unfavourable variance of -$1.481 million. This is mainly due to the favourable commodity sales income at the Materials Recovery Facility which has led to a corresponding reduction in the service fee income required to be levied against the Cities of Joondalup and Swan. A thorough analysis of the full year revenue projection in this category will take in January’s mid-year review.
Interest Earnings
For the financial year to date ending December, Council’s investment portfolio return has exceeded the bank bill index benchmark by 1.15% pa (6.11% pa vs. 4.96 % pa). December year to date interest earnings amounts to $4.358 million reflecting a favourable variance of $0.603 million (+16%) compared to year to date budget.
The City intends to continue with a “cautiously optimistic” investment strategy throughout the year and has budgeted for $7.123 million to be achieved by year end considering the current economic climate.
Other Revenue
The Other Revenue category shows a favourable year to date variance to budget of $0.805 million (+40%). The main contributor towards this variance is the unbudgeted payment of $0.258 million received by the City for the sale of sand at Lot 15 Motivation Drive Wangara and a $0.473 million favourable year to date variance in Sale of Products Income for the Materials Recycling Facility.
Expenses $ million
Year to Date Actual 57.633
Year to Date Budget Estimate 66.464
Year to Date Variance +8.830 (+13%)
Full Year Adopted Budget 132.686
Full Year Revised Budget 132.815
Employee Costs
Under Employee costs a favourable year to date variance of +14% ($4.079 million) has been reflected for the end of December. The main contributor towards this is the current level of unfilled positions. Many vacancies however will be advertised in the early part of 2012, with selections and appointments to happen soon after. In respect to the UCA for inside staff, an updated agreement is now in the final stages of negotiations. At present favourable variances to year to date budgets of +$2.626 million and +$1.096 million are reflected for Salaries and Wages respectively.
Materials and Contracts
Under Materials and Contracts a favourable variance to year to date budget of +16% is represented (+$3.027 million). This is a result of slower than expected recording of costs to some accounts for the first half of the financial year. Material contributors towards this variance are Contract Expenses (+$1.828 million), Refuse Removal Expenses (+$0.499 million) and Material Expenses (+0.686 million). Business units will perform detail analysis during the upcoming mid-year review to determine the full year budget expenses in this category to 30 June 2012.
Utility Charges
The variance to year to date budget for Utility Charges is currently +12% (+$0.357 million). Most accounts are within budget expectations except for Electricity which represents the majority of the variance with favourable variance of +$0.313 million due to timing of payments. However, it is expected that during mid-year review, electricity budget will need to be increased based on the current monthly trend and potential back charges by Synergy for previous periods.
Insurance
A favourable variance to year to date budget of +16% (+$0.247 million) is noted as at December month end for Insurance costs. The reason for this variance is from the timing of the payments of the annual premiums, which are staged over the year and should not result in any savings by year end.
Other Revenue and Expenses $ million
(Excluding Contributions of Physical Assets)
Revenue in excess of expenses:
Year to Date Actual 3.655
Year to Date Budget Estimate 2.349
Year to Date Variance +1.306 (+56%)
Full Year Adopted Budget 7.577
Full Year Revised Budget 8.048
Non-Operating Grants, Subsidies and Contributions
An unfavourable year to date budget variance of -64% is reflected under the Non-Operating Grants, Subsidies and Contributions category which relates primarily to Capital Grants for Capital Works. As at 31 December 2011 no reductions in the annual estimates are identified however through a thorough review of all capital projects and fundings in January for the Mid Year Budget Review any subsequent adjustments will be reported as part of the January report (and confirmation of timings).
Town Planning Scheme (TPS) Revenues
Income for TPS’s currently report an unfavourable variance to year to date budget of -21%. These revenues are required to be set aside for specific costs associated with a particular scheme and will not affect the Result from Operations for the organisation.
Town Planning Scheme (TPS) Expenses
TPS Expenses as at December month end reflects a +64% variance (+$6.775 million) to year to date budget. These costs relate to expenditures within specific Scheme areas and are funded by contributions received from land owners. If timings of works carried out change there will be no impact on Municipal accounts.

Each year Developers hand over physical assets (such as parklands) to the City, for its ongoing management and control. These assets can be of considerable value and will be calculated and booked to the accounts during the preparation of end of year Financial Statements. It should be noted that variations on the amounts of contributions of physical assets comparing to budget has no direct impact to the City’s current financial year financial results.

Investment Portfolio Summary (Refer to Attachment 3)
In accordance with the City’s Investment Policy, Council endorsed the City to continue maintaining a “cautiously optimistic” approach to its investments to ensure full protection of the City’s financial assets. As such, the City will only invest in government guaranteed products or short to medium term deposits with major banks during the present economic climate.
As at 31 December 2011, the City holds an investment portfolio (cash and cash equivalents) of $208.414 million. Interest Earnings were budgeted at 5% yield.
For the financial year to date ending December, Council’s investment portfolio return has exceeded the bank bill index benchmark by 1.15% pa (6.11% pa vs. 4.96% pa). Further explanation of the current economic climate, market conditions and City’s portfolio analysis is detailed in Attachment 3.
Rate Setting Statement (Refer to Attachment 4)
The Rate Setting Statement outlined in Attachment 4 represents a composite view of the finances of the City, identifying the movement in the surplus/(deficit), primarily based on the operations and capital works revenue and expenditure, and resulting rating income required.
Overall Comment
The Operating Result for the City to December month end presents an overall favourable variance of +16% (+$7.108 million) to year to date budget. Operating Income presented a minimal unfavourable variance to year to date budget of -2% (-$0.1.722 million). Expenditures from Operations continue to present a favourable variance to year to date budget of +13% (+$8.830 million) with the major influences being the favourable year to date variances stated for Employee Costs ($4.079 million) and Materials & Contracts ($3.027 million). Activities within the Capital Program have increased as reflected in the December year to date figures and in respect of Commitments.
During January analytical work will be progressed for the Mid Year Budget Review, building on the financial analysis for December. Additionally the outcome of this review will be reported to Council at its 6 March Meeting for consideration and endorsement. Administration will be focusing on achieving improvements to the City’s bottom line, whilst still delivering quality of service.

Issue
To consider the Financial Activity Statement for the period ended 31 January 2012 and Revised Budgets as a result of the 2011/2012 Mid Year Budget Review (MYR).
Background
Regulation 34(1) of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations 1996 requires a local government to prepare each month a statement of financial activity, presented according to nature and type, by program, or by business unit. Administration has opted to present the statement of financial activity by nature and type and in a similar format to that presented in the 2011/2012 Annual Budget. This format separates Revenue and Expenses from Other Revenue and Expenses and provides improved disclosure of City’s underlying Operating Result.
The Financial Activity Statement is in the form of an Income Statement, which compares year to date actual income and expenses with the year to date budget, shows variances and the adopted and revised budgets (if any). It is accompanied by a Balance Sheet together with information relating to Capital Projects, an Investment Portfolio Summary, Statement of Net Current Assets and Rate Setting Statement.
In addition to the above, Regulation 34(5) of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations 1996 requires a local government to adopt a percentage or value, calculated in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, to be used in statements of financial activity for reporting material variances. For the 2011/2012 financial year Council has adopted 10% for the reporting of variances, which is in line with previous years.
Furthermore, Regulation 33A of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations 1996 requires a local government to carry out a review of its Annual Budget for that year between 1 January and 31 March in each year. Within 30 days after the review is carried out, the review is to be submitted to the Council for consideration. Council is to consider the review submitted to it and is to determine whether or not to adopt the review, any part of the review or any recommendations made in the review.
Detail
The Financial Activity Statement and January year to date financial performances of the City, together with Revised Budgets resulting from the Mid Year Budget Review, are detailed in Attachments 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. (Note: January Income Statement reflects MYR Revised Budget).

Comment
The commentaries on variances to budgets in the Financial Activity Statement for the period ended 31 January 2012 are provided below:
Income Statement (Refer to Attachment 1)
Net Result $ million
Year to Date Actual 51.793
Year to Date Budget 40.130
Year to Date Variance +11.662 (+29%)
Full Year Adopted Budget 38.696
Full Year Revised Budget 37.227
The following information is provided on key aspects of the year to date financial results:
Revenues $ million
Year to Date Actual 114.793
Year to Date Budget 113.514
Year to Date Variance +1.279 (+1%)
Full Year Adopted Budget 133.806
Full Year Revised Budget 132.538
Rates
Rating income, which includes standard domestic rubbish collection fees, is the City’s single largest source of operating income, representing approximately 67% of the Adopted Budget. Majority of Rates revenue was accrued in August 2011 when the annual rate notices were sent to property owners.
Full year forecast has increased the rating income by $0.529 million (+1%) to $90.419 million primarily due to higher than budgeted interim rates expected throughout the year.
Operating Grants, Subsidies and Contributions
As at the end of January funds received under Operating Grants, Subsidies and Contributions are behind Budget by $0.516 million (-9%). This is mainly due to the first quarterly payment from the Grants Commission being paid late in the 2011 financial year, rather in the early part of the 2012 financial year.
During the Mid-Year Review process, the net adjustment to Operating Grants, Subsidies and Contributions was identified as a reduction of -$0.844 million (-8%). This reflects the timing difference of the Grants Commission payment mentioned above (-$1.306 million) plus various increases in other funded activities (+$0.462 million). Whilst it is anticipated that the State Government will again forward the first quarterly Grants Commission payment prior to the end of this financial year, no confirmation has been officially received as yet hence it is not recognised in the end of year forecast figures.
Fees and Charges
January year to date Fees and Charges are reflecting an unfavourable variance of $1.040 million. As a result of the Mid-Year Review, the full year forecast is revised down by $2.215 million (-10%) with the major accounts affecting income under this category reflected in the following table, with additional explanations below:
|
|
Original Budget |
Revised Budget (MYR) |
|
· Application Licence Permit Fee |
$3.743 million |
$2.971 million |
|
· Service Fee Income |
$5.417 million |
$4.310 million |
|
· Parking Fine Income |
$0.235 million |
$0.100 million |
|
· Engineering Supervision Fee |
$0.600 million |
$0.500 million |
With Application Licence Permit Fees the bulk of the adjustment to the end of year forecast relates to a reduction within Building Services (-$0.507 million), although a -$0.292 million reduction is also reflected within Planning Services. In respect to year to date progress these areas show unfavourable variances of -$0.152 million and -$0.118 million respectively.
The Waste Services area is the major contributor towards the reduced income expected by year end from Service Fee Income. As at the end of January $0.705 million has been received out of an estimated forecast end of year result of $1.610 million. Currently this presents an unfavourable year to date variance of -$0.236 million. Furthermore, Service Fees full year budget income from Cities of Joondalup and Swan in relation to the Wangara Recycling Facility has been reduced by $0.495 million as an outcome of a detail forecast calculation made for January to June 2012 during the mid year review.
Under the Ranger and Safety Services area, Parking Fine Income generated year to date is $0.046 million. Based on the assessment of activities within this area at mid-year, the full year original estimate of $0.235 million has been subsequently decreased to $0.100 million which is reflective of updated projections.
Engineering Supervision Fees are charged for works undertaken in the City’s Infrastructure Development Unit and to the end of January have $0.208 million recorded to account. Whilst forecasts of works and subsequent charges to year end will reflect an increase in monthly charges, a lower result is however estimated to be received with a revised figure of $0.500 stated (-$0.100 million).
Interest Earnings
The value recorded from Interest Earnings is dependent on the level of investment funds available, prevailing interest rates and the ability to closely monitor and manage. January year to date interest earnings amounts to $5.619 million, being a favourable variance of $1.163 million (+26%) comparing to budget.
Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) meeting February 2012 had decided to put cash rate on hold at 4.25%. It is difficult to predict the movements of interest rates in the coming months which will depend highly on the global economic and financial conditions. On the assumption that cash rate remains unchanged until end of June 2012, full year interest earnings is increased by 14% (+$1.010 million).
Other Revenue
The Other Revenue category shows a favourable year to date variance to Budget of $0.662 million (+26%) mainly due to additional Sale of Product Income of +$0.489 million generated from the Wangara Recycling Facility. Furthermore, $0.258 million in Royalty Income has been received for sale of sand associated with the excavation of the boundary of the City’s Lot 15 Motivation Drive. This income was not budgeted for in this financial year and is the reason for the adjustment in the year end forecast.
Service Charges
The Service Charge category relates to the charging of underground power to residents within the western section of Quinns Rocks. Billings are close to budget with no change required to year end figures. These funds are required to be managed in accordance with the requirements of Section 6.38 of the Local Government Act 1995.
Expenses $ million
Year to Date Actual 67.268
Year to Date Budget 75.972
Year to Date Variance +8.704 (+11%)
Full Year Adopted Budget 132.686
Full Year Revised Budget 131.077
Employee Costs
Employee Costs make up approximately 43% of the total operational costs for the City. Year-to-date figures show a favourable variance of +13% to budget, which is mainly due to a number of vacant positions not yet filled and delay in implementing a new Salaried Officers Collective Agreement. Accordingly, mid-year review is indicating a full year favourable variance of approximately $1.414 million (+2%). This forecast includes an allowance for the progressive employment of an increase to the establishment as endorsed late in 2011.
Materials and Contracts
Overall, the year to date expenses is below budget by $2.844 million (+13%), which is mainly
due to the favourable variances reflected under Contract Expenses of $1.538 million and Materials Expenses of $0.641 million, while there was an unfavourable variance under Software Expenses of $0.161 million.
During the mid year review, each Service Unit scrutinized
their expenses and forecast expenditure requirements to the end of June 2012.
Considerations were given to Community expectations, whole of organisation
services and facilities, delivery targets and forward resources planning.
The full year budget is now revised to $38.728 million, a slight decrease of
$0.064 million comparing to original budget. This result is mainly due to
increases in Contract Labour (+$0.292 million), Consultancy (+$0.258 million),
Software (+$0.168 million) and Legal Fees (+$0.158 million) which are
favourably offset by decreases in the Contract Expenses (-$0.709 million), Fuel
& Oil (-$0.177 million) and Material Expenses
(-$0.169 million).
Utility Charges (electricity, gas, water etc)
Utilities are currently under budget to the value of $0.372 million (+11%), which is primarily due to the timing of the electricity bills. The outcome of analysis at Mid Year Review presents an overall increase expected by year-end of $0.875 million with the expectation of additional costs and back charges relating to Street Lighting.
Depreciation
Depreciation costs are 8% below budget year to date and based on current estimates full year budget for this category is reduced by $1.000 million (+4%). It should be noted that depreciation costs are directly related to level and nature of capital works completed during the year hence an accurate estimation can only take place around May/June 2012.
Interest Expenses
The Interest Expenses incurred by the City directly relate to fixed repayments of a loan agreement entered into with Western Australia Treasury Corporation in 2006 for the purposes of providing funding towards capital projects. There will be no change required to the annual budget.
Insurance
As at January month end Insurance expenses is below budget
by 15%
(-$0.232 million), primarily due to timing difference in general insurance
premiums payments and the reduced excess payments to date. Mid-year review
indicated full year expenses remain relatively on track as Original Budget.
Other Revenue and Expenses $ million
(Excluding Contributions of Physical Assets)
Year to Date Actual 4.268
Year to Date Budget 2.589
Year to Date Variance +1.680 (+65%)
Full Year Adopted Budget 7.577
Full Year Revised Budget 5.766
Non-Operating Grants, Subsidies and Contributions
To the end of January the City had received $1.792 million towards Non-Operating Grants, Subsidies and Contributions, which is predominantly tied to the progress of capital projects and represents an unfavourable variance of $3.849 million (-68%) when compared to year to date Budget. In most cases funds will be received upon completion or part completion of works, of which the exact timing is not necessarily known.
The forecast end of year figure represents an overall increase of $0.349 million, which relates to increases for funded capital projects reported to Council earlier this financial year to the value of $0.463 million together with a subsequent decrease in grants funding through the Mid-Year review of -$0.115 million.
Town Planning Schemes (TPS)
TPS Revenue is dependent on developers and as at 31 January the amount received by the City equates to $6.363 million, which is -26% below year to date Budget. Latest planning activities has indicated developers’ contribution remained unchanged for the full year. This will not affect operations as funds received in this category are held separately in restricted reserve accounts for future Scheme use.
With TPS Expenses, some costs have been recorded year to date, which are $8.528 million (+69%) below Budget. These expenditures relate to specific costs and land purchases within the Scheme location, which can only be allocated for particular Scheme purposes and where unspent, will be carried forward to future years. The $0.270 million increase in budget reflects additional funding requirements for capital works as detailed in Attachment 5.
Profit/ (Loss) on Asset Disposals
The Profit and Loss on Asset Disposals relates in part to the turnover of plant and fleet items and also relating to land sales. Year to date variances to Budget of - $1.151 million (-100%) and +$0.354 million (+81%) are respectively reflected for Profits and Losses on Asset Disposals.
When assessing the end of year forecasts a reduction of $1.890 million has been identified to reflect sale proceeds not likely to be received this financial year for the property sale at Fowey Loop (now planned for 2013 financial year).
Contributions of Physical Assets $ million
Year to Date Actual 0.000
Year to Date Budget 0.000
Year to Date Variance 0.000 (0%)
Full Year Adopted Budget 30.000
Full Year Revised Budget 30.000
Each year Developers hand over physical assets (such as parklands) to the City, for its ongoing management and control. These assets can be of considerable value, however accurate costing are not available at this early stage of the financial year due to the extensive calculations required, based on the compilation of substantial information to be provided from Developers. It should be noted that variations on the amounts of contributions of physical assets comparing to budget has no direct impact to the City’s current financial year.

Capital Works Projects Adjustments – Mid Year Review (Refer to Attachment 5)
As part of the Mid Year Budget Review the status of all projects on the 2011/2012 Capital Works Program were closely evaluated. This task involved the forecasting of final expenditures, confirmation of identified funding sources, necessity of the project and timing of its finalisation, with the aim of maximising the best use of our resources to meet community needs. The resulting outcome is noted in Attachment 5 by way of various adjustments to the program.
With respect to the final financial outcome of the Mid-Year Review a minor reduction in Municipal Funding of $0.013 million is identified. It is also worth noting that $0.215 million capital works are included as “endorsed change prior to MYR” representing change of scope of work and/or funding adjustments approved by Council from July to December 2011. All project amendments that are subject to funding availability during MYR as endorsed by Council from July to December 2011 are now included in the details per Attachment 5.
Investment Portfolio Summary (Refer to Attachment 3)
The City’s investment strategy emphasises on the importance of maintaining a “cautiously optimistic” approach to its investments to ensure full protection of the City’s financial assets. As such, the City will only invest in government guaranteed products or short to medium term deposits with major banks during the present economic climate.
As at 31 January 2012, the City holds an investment portfolio (cash and cash equivalents) of $205.437 million. Interest Earnings were budgeted at 5% yield. The average yield for the past 12 months for the City’s portfolio is 5.79% while benchmark return annualized reflects 4.92% (UBS Warburg AUD Bank Bill Index). Further explanation of the current economic climate, market conditions and City’s portfolio analysis is detailed in Attachment 3.
Rate Setting Statement (Refer to Attachment 4)
The Rate Setting Statement outlined in Attachment 4 represents a composite view of the finances of the City, identifying the movement in the surplus/(deficit), primarily based on the operations and capital works revenue and expenditure, and resulting rating income required.
Overall Comment
The Operating Result for the City
to January month end presents an overall favourable variance of +27% (+$9.983
million) to year to date budget. Operating income continues to be ahead of year
to date budget by +1% (+$1.279 million), with Interest Earnings contributing to
the bulk of the variance ($1.163 million/+26%), offset by below budget Fees and
Charges
(-$1.040 million/-9%). Expenditures from Operations also present a
favourable variance to year to date budget of +11% (+$8.704 million).
Activities in the capital program are progressing with year to date
expenditures of $22.220 million incurred with an additional $8.548 million reflected
as Commitments.
Administration is committed to run the City’s Operations in the most efficient manner with effective financial management practices. Following a detailed mid-year budget review process the Net Operating Result is projected to be a slight improvement of +$0.341 million, mainly contributed by better than budgeted Interest Income, Interim Rates, lower than expected Employee and Depreciation costs offset by lower than expected Grants, Fees & Charges Income and higher than budgeted Electricity Costs.
With the Capital Works Program, full year Revised Budget post Mid Year Review are projected to be $71.537 million, $0.526 million more than the Original Adopted Budget (inclusive of $0.215 million endorsed changes prior to mid-year review), as detailed by specific project adjustment and respective funding source in Attachment 5.
The outcome of the 2011/2012 Mid Year Budget Review demonstrates the Management team’s due diligence in financial management as well as ensuring that services continue to be provided at expected levels without compromise. Furthermore, through Council adopting a range of Budget Principles to assist in the development of a sustainable 10 Year Strategic Financial Management Plan, Administration have been able to more effectively manage and present this Mid Year Review confident that the City’s finances are true, accurate and continue in a strong position moving forward.
At a recent Council Forum, the Chief Executive Officer outlined a proposal for the future accommodation requirements of the City, including an immediate need to undertake conversion works to the ground level of the Wanneroo Community Centre together with other relocation expenses to the value of $400,000 to enable relocation of 49 staff from the Infrastructure directorate. Due to the urgent nature of these works funds will now need to be made available to facilitate these works during the course of the balance of the current financial year.

Issue
To consider the adoption of the City of Wanneroo’s Compliance Audit Return (CAR) for the period 1 January 2011 to 31 December 2011.
Background
Each Local Government Agency is required to carry out an annual compliance audit against the requirements included in the CAR for submission to the Department of Local Government (the Department).
At the request of the Minister for Local Government, the Department has greatly simplified the 2011 CAR and the number of questions that need to be addressed has been significantly reduced in comparison with previous Returns.
Detail
The completed 2011 CAR for the City of Wanneroo is included as Attachment 1.
Previously, the Department of Local Government’s Guideline No. 9 recommended that the Return is to be presented to an Audit Committee prior to final adoption by Council, as the detailed nature of the Return would make it difficult for Council to assess any implications arising from the Return at its Ordinary meeting.
On 30 December 2011, amendments were gazetted to the Local Government (Audit) Regulations 1996 which include, amongst other things, a requirement for a local government’s audit committee to review the annual compliance audit return and report the results to Council.
Consultation
The completed CAR was presented to the Audit Committee on 14 February 2012, with the Committee subsequently recommending submission of the Return to Council for adoption.
The City’s internal auditors, KPMG, undertook an audit of the 2011 CAR prior to the return being presented to the Audit Committee, and a copy of the audit findings was provided to the Audit Committee for information.
Comment
The Audit Committee has noted the following points arising from the audit undertaken by KPMG.
1. Commercial Enterprises by Local Governments – Question 1
“Has the local government prepared a business plan for each major trading undertaken in 2011?”
Administration’s response to this question was “No”, with a clarifying comment “Waste activities under current plan (2001). Aquamotion plan to be developed.”
Internal Audit have commented that the Environmental Waste Services Business Plan and a consultant’s brief document noting the revision of the existing plan and the development of the Aquamotion Business Plan were sighted, and no exceptions were noted.
However, on further review, Administration is of the view that Aquamotion does not meet the criteria to be considered as a ‘major trading undertaking’, as there is a minimum prescribed value of $5 million annual expenditure for a trading undertaking to be a ‘major trading undertaking’. Therefore, a business plan is not required in this instance.
The Audit Committee therefore recommends that the CAR be amended accordingly by deleting the words “Aquamotion plan to be developed”, and Attachment 1 reflects this proposed amendment.
2. Delegations of Power/Duty – Question 13
“Did all persons exercising a delegated power or duty under the Act keep, on all occasions, a written record as required?”
The auditors did not find any exceptions with respect to the City’s handling of this requirement. However, the audit did identify that, whilst this question relates to multiple personnel within the City, only one officer can be identified in the CAR as the respondent. This officer is, in effect, declaring on the City’s behalf that the correct procedures have been followed in all instances.
Currently, there is no monitoring or reporting process in place which facilitates this nominated respondent to be notified that personnel have complied with this requirement.
In order to address this issue, the auditors have recommended as follows:
“In addition to the current notices supplied to staff reminding them of their obligations to maintain written records, we recommend that management include processes such as spot checks on records kept by persons with delegated power or duty. Internal Audit, as part of follow-up, could support this process by incorporating additional spot checks on the City’s behalf.”
Administration will put in place mechanisms to ensure that spot checks are performed at regular intervals on the records kept by persons exercising delegated power, and will liaise with Internal Audit regarding their involvement through the follow up process.
3. Finance – Question 2
“Where a local government determined to delegate to its audit committee any powers or duties under part 7 of the Act, did it do so by absolute majority?”
The initial response provided to this question by Administration was “Yes”. However, Internal Audit has identified that, given that the Audit Committee has not been granted any delegated authority by Council, the most appropriate response to this question should be “N/A”, with a supporting comment “The Audit Committee does not have current delegated authority.”
The CAR has been amended accordingly by Administration.
No further exceptions were noted, or comments made, by the internal auditors with respect to the remaining questions subjected to audit.
Statutory Compliance
Local Government (Audit) Regulations 1996
“14. Compliance audits by local governments
(1) A local government is to carry out a compliance audit for the period 1 January to 31 December each year.
(2) After carrying out a compliance audit the local government is to prepare a compliance audit return in a form approved by the Minister.
(3A) The local government’s audit committee is to review the compliance audit return and is to report to the council the results of that review.
(3) After the audit committee has reported to the council under subregulation (3A), the compliance audit return is to be –

Issue
To review the content of the three year Strategic Audit Plan.
Background
The Audit Committee at its meeting on 15 March 2011, recommended to Council:
“That the Audit Committee:-
1. NOTES the revised 2010/11 and proposed 2011/12 amounts for externally based internal auditing; and
2. ADOPTS the Strategic Internal Audit Plan 2011/12 to 2013/14 with the proviso that it may be amended following Risk Management workshops.”
Council subsequently passed the following resolution (CE03-04/11 refers):
“Moved Cr Gray, Seconded Cr Truong
That Council ADOPTS the Strategic Internal Audit Plan 2011/12 to 2013/14 with the proviso that it may be amended following Risk Management Workshops.
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY”
It was noted at the time that the Plan may need to change in the light of the forthcoming Risk Management workshops. As the workshops are still ongoing, this remains the case. The City’s new auditors have now had the chance to consider the adopted Plan.
Detail
The City’s new Internal Auditors, KPMG, have reviewed the adopted Plan and are of the opinion that it contains too many small (50-100 hours) audits that do not cover the scope adequately. They instead recommend fewer, in depth audits of key areas. The annual hours remain at approximately 1,000 hours per annum. Administration has reviewed and discussed these proposed changes with KPMG and jointly prepared a revised Strategic Audit Plan for consideration.
The Strategic Internal Audit Plan was presented to the Audit Committee meeting of 14 February 2012 (Item 4.2 refers) for consideration, with the following resolution being adopted:
“That Audit Committee RECOMMENDS to Council the adoption and substitution of the revised Strategic Audit Plan for the years ended September 2012 to September 2014.
Carried Unanimously”
Consultation
Management and KPMG have discussed the proposed changes.
Comment
Administration supports the Internal Auditors view that fewer, but more in depth, audits will provide greater assurance on the adequacy of the City’s Internal Control framework. The draft Internal Audit Plan 2011-12 and Strategic Internal Audit Plan for the years 2012-14 is included as Attachment 1. Attachment 2 provides a comparison between the initial Plan adopted in April 2011 and the current draft.
