Agenda

 

Good evening Councillors, staff, ladies and gentlemen, we wish to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land we are meeting on, the Whadjuk people.  We would like to pay respect to the Elders of the Nyoongar nation, past and present, who have walked and cared for the land and we acknowledge and respect their continuing culture and the contributions made to the life of this city and this region and I invite you to bow your head in prayer:

 

Lord, We ask for your blessing upon our City, our community and our Council.  Guide us in our decision making to act fairly, without fear or favour and with compassion, integrity and honesty.  May we show true leadership, be inclusive of all, and guide the City of Wanneroo to a prosperous future that all may share.  We ask this in your name. Amen

Item  3      Public Question Time

Response to Public Questions carried over from 31 March 2015 Council Meeting

 

PQ08-03/15       Mrs N Sangalli, Quinns Road, Quinns Rocks

2.         Is there a reason why the City does not have a policy on sea containers, as adjoining Shires do, for example the Shire of Gingin has a policy that includes they need to be screened from view and no signage placed on them?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

The City's District Planning Scheme No. 2 (DPS 2) sets out the standards and requirements for development within the City.  These requirements are applicable to all development within the City including sea containers in terms of how they may be used. Where sea containers are proposed to be used as structures for signs or signage, such proposals are also assessed against the requirements of the City's Signs Local Planning Policy 4.6 (LPP 4.6).  It is considered that the provisions and requirements available within DPS 2 and LPP 4.6 provide the City with sufficient guidance to assess applications which involve sea containers. To date there has not been a need to have a specific policy to manage the use or development of sea containers.

Public Questions Received in Writing Prior to Council Meeting

Issue : 169 Gibbs Road, Nowergup

 

1.         In relation to the SAT matter DR95 2013, which was listed for a final hearing on 10 and 11 March, Lime Industries withdrew their application for review.  Could Administration please provide an explanation?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

The Full Hearing on 10 March 2015 was for the SAT to review two matters arising from the conditions of Planning Approval granted by Council from its decision made at its 14 October 2014 Meeting. The two matters were for a review of:

 

·         The dates specified in Conditions (b) and (c);

·         Condition (kk) as resolved by Council.

 

The issue relating to the dates referred to in Conditions (b) and (c) were resolved during the Hearing, in a manner as sought by the applicant. The discussion surrounding Condition (kk) concluded with the applicant advising the SAT that it would not proceed with the review of Condition (kk) but may seek further Planning Approval for blending and manufacturing activities on Lot 52 sometime in the future.

 

Given that an outcome was reached on the matters subject to the Full Hearing, the applicant was given leave by the SAT to withdraw the application for review with respect to Condition (kk).

 

 

 

 

2.         The SAT member expressed his concerns about a threshold issue.  Could Administration please explain?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

Judge David Parry (the SAT Deputy Presiding Member that heard the matter) expressed concerns about a threshold issue in the Hearing. In the context which Judge Parry used it, Administration understands the phrase ‘threshold issue’ to be a reference to a preliminary question, the answer to which has the potential to determine, or influence in a significant way, the substance of the proceedings before the SAT.

 

In the context of this, Judge Parry was concerned that the development application subject to the Hearing did not cover the proposal to blend and manufacture limestone. Judge Parry suggested that the Applicant may need to seek leave to amend the application for approval before proceeding (which the Applicant declined to do).

 

3.         Did the City’s lawyers, Castledine Gregory provide advice to the City of Wanneroo about whether SAT actually had jurisdiction to be hearing this matter?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

Administration did not seek advice as to whether or not the particular matters the subject of the review were within or outside the SAT’s jurisdiction.

 

The applicant sought the Full Hearing at the SAT to contest conditions of Planning Approval as resolved by Council at its meeting of 14 October 2014.

 

Applications for review of decisions made by a responsible authority (in this case, Council) can be heard at the SAT pursuant to the Planning and Development Act 2005 and the State Administrative Tribunal Act 2004.

 

4.         If yes, could you please provide details?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

Refer to the answer provided for Question (3) above.

 

5.         If no, does Administration have confidence in the advice provided by Castledine Gregory given the withdrawal of their application for review and why?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

Not applicable. Administration also notes that the Applicant could have sought leave to amend the application on 10 March 2015, but chose not to.

 

6.         Could Administration please provide details of the cost to the City of defending this matter of conditions that formed part of the approval made by the City on 17 December 2013?  Could this cost include Administrative time as well as the cost of Castledine Gregory and all experts and preparations for the final hearing from 17 December 2013 until 10 March 2015 inclusive?

 

 

 

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

The City’s Administration does not record the administrative time spent on responding to SAT matters. However, the costs that the City has incurred from assistance from external experts, including experts in planning, karst and subterranean ecology, environmental impact assessment, noise, geotechnical engineering and environment and planning law are $280,400.72.  These costs were incurred between July 2013 and April 2015.

 

7.         Given that the matter was withdrawn because Lime Industries had never made a development application for lime manufacturing, will the City seek to get the money it has spent defending this matter back from the lawyers?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

No. The application for review at the SAT was originally sought by the applicant in response to the ‘deemed refusal’ of the application. The application was deemed refused, as the City had not made a determination of the application within 90 days of its receipt.

 

The SAT matter progressed to a Full Hearing that occurred on 10 March 2015, as the applicant was contesting the two matters referred to in the answer to Question (1) above. These were residual issues that arose out of the decision of Council to approve the application subject to conditions at its meeting of 14 October 2014.

 

On 10 March 2015, the Applicant decided to withdraw its application for review of Condition (kk). As a consequence, the SAT did not determine whether the development application sought approval of lime manufacturing, or whether such a use is permissible within the Rural Resource zone. In the Proceedings, the City contended that it was not a permissible use, and even if it was, it should not be approved having regard to the impacts on the environment and the amenity of the locality.

 

The outcome achieved on 10 March 2015 was favourable to the City, as the proposal to blend and manufacture limestone was not approved and the City did not have to incur the full costs of the hearing (noting that each party generally bears their own costs regardless of the outcome in the SAT).

 

8.         The approval for the extractive industry on Lot 50 Nowergup Road, Nowergup includes the condition not to bring any materials etc on to the site.  Could the City of Wanneroo explain under what circumstances Lime Industries would be able to undertake lime manufacturing?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

For the City to consider granting approval, the applicant would be required to lodge either a new application to carry out this activity on the site, or an application to amend their current planning approval.

 

Should an application for manufacturing be lodged, Administration would consider the proposal against the provisions of DPS 2, having regard to any legal advice that it may seek or receive.

 

 

 

9.         Could Lime Industries make an application to include lime manufacturing or blending on their existing approval for the extractive approval for the extractive industry? If yes could you explain the circumstances?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

As outlined in the answer to Question (8) above, an application would need to be lodged by the applicant should they again seek to carry out blending or manufacturing on the site.

 

10.      Could Lime Industries make a new application for lime manufacturing or blending on this site? If yes could you explain the circumstances?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

Yes, as outlined in the answers to Questions (8) and (9) above.

 

11.      If Lime Industries make an application for lime manufacturing or blending or if Lime Industries seek to add to the existing extractive industry development approval for lime manufacturing or blending will the application be advised to the public to make submissions?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

The City’s Administration would advertise such a proposal for public comment should it be received.

 

Questions were intended for 31 March 2015 Council meeting.  Regrettably I was not informed that the meeting was to be held at Two Rocks instead of the Wanneroo Shire Offices on 31 March 2015.  I searched the website and the only place I could find notice of the change of venue is at the top of the Agenda for the meeting.

 

I suggest that on the page that documents the dates of the Council meetings that the venue for the meetings is also included.  The assumption is that the meetings will be at the Council offices.

 

At the end of 2014 WAPC and CoW were collaborating to outline a zoning strategy to provide for a co-ordinated approach to land development in East Wanneroo and to prepare a report for the Commission meeting to be held March 2015.

 

The report was tabled at the first Briefing meeting in 2015 but within 2 days of being released the report was withdrawn from the Council meeting agenda.  The reason given for this was, “a need for further research”.

 

Sue Burrows informed me that she was due to present information regarding East Wanneroo to the WAPC Tuesday 31 March 2015.  I expect her feedback from that meeting today.  She did inform me however that a joint report was not being presented but that further work with CoW would be undertaken.

 

 

 

 

 

1.         What action has been undertaken by CoW since the joint report was withdrawn?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

Further research has been undertaken regarding criteria for lifting of Urban Deferment (to change land from Urban Deferred to Urban zoning under the Metropolitan Region Scheme).

 

Also, written advice is being sought from the various infrastructure agencies (including Water Corporation, Western Power, Telstra and Main Roads Western Australia) regarding the timeframe within which they will be able to provide their respective infrastructure to enable urban development of the East Wanneroo area to proceed.

 

2.         Has the ‘further research’ deemed necessary commenced?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

Yes.

 

3.         Who is undertaking the ‘further research’?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

CoW Administration, in consultation with the Department of Planning (DoP) as well as the various infrastructure agencies.

 

4.         What are the expected outcomes of the ‘further research’?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

Criteria for lifting of Urban Deferment which can be considered for inclusion in Local Planning Policy (LPP) 5.3: East Wanneroo.

 

Also, confirmation that the various infrastructure agencies will be able to provide their infrastructure in a timeframe which aligns with the anticipated timeframe for completion of the planning of the area.

 

5.         When is it expected that the ‘further research’ will be completed?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

A specific time for this cannot be provided as it is dependent upon progress of the ongoing discussions with the DoP, and how soon the City receives the written advice sought from the infrastructure agencies, and the content of that advice.

 

6.         Is there any intention by CoW planners and designers to become actively involved with landowners, or their representatives, in the formation of a district structure plan to identify location and type of land use, including housing densities, location of major access roads, and location of commercial centres, public open space and community facilities.

 

 

 

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

LPP 5.3 proposes that the proposed two District Structure Plans (DSP) for East Wanneroo be prepared by landowners/developers/consultants.  However, they will be required to be prepared in close consultation with the City, as well as the various other agencies involved.  The two District Structure Plans are required to be approved by the City and the Western Australian Planning Commission.

 

7.         Isn’t it in the CoW’s, and its ratepayers, best interest that a plan or design of how the City evolves is developed with input of CoW so that Wanneroo becomes a vital, exciting and state of the art environment aimed at attracting people, businesses and tourists to its precinct?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

Yes (see 6 above)

 

8.         Do the CoW administrators and councillors recognise that the land masses identified as East Wanneroo (north of Dundebar and south of Dundebar Road totalling almost 20 sq km - CoW reply to a previous question -) entail many ‘differences’ with regard to infrastructure, water, transport etc. etc. and therefore ‘readiness’ for development, scoping or rezoning is very different from one place to another within that 20 sq km?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

See answer to question 9 below.

 

9.         Is it the intention of CoW administrators and councillors to enforce a policy that ALL East Wanneroo (that north of Dundebar Road for example, shown as potential Urban under the East Wanneroo Structure Plan) should proceed  to an MRS amendment jointly by the various landowners, or their representatives – despite the vast ‘differences’ that exist within that area? (see previous question)

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

It is recognised that some parts of East Wanneroo will be more ‘ready’ for urban development  than other parts in terms of provision of infrastructure.  Notwithstanding this, LPP 5.3 proposes that all of the EWSP potential urban area be rezoned to Urban  through two MRS amendments.  The Urban zoning is intended to provide the incentive for landowners and developers to prepare the two DSPs required under LPP 5.3.

 

The main reason the total potential urban area is proposed to be rezoned, rather than just the areas which are most ‘ready’ in terms of infrastructure provision, is that the preparation of the DSPs will involve a substantial number of technical studies at a substantial cost.  The proposed extent of the future urban area will be an important factor  in the preparation of the studies (eg transport modelling and forecasting of future community infrastructure requirements).  It is therefore desirable that there is a reasonably high degree of confidence in the assumed extent of the future urban area.  This high degree of confidence can best be provided by Urban zoning.

 

A further advantage in the total area being rezoned is that this would provide an incentive for more landowners and developers to  collaborate in the preparation of the DSPs. 

 

 

Such collaboration should facilitate the preparation and processing of DSPs in a more timely manner as compared to their preparation by a more limited number of landowners and developers.

 

10.      Do CoW administrators and councillors agree that landowners close to amenities and existing infrastructure should be identified by CoW as ready to proceed to an MRS amendment, rather than requiring  them to ‘mark time’ while other outlying areas catch up?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

See answer to question 9 above.  It is also unclear what is meant by outlying areas ‘catching up’.  If this is intended to mean landowners and developers  in outlying areas having to be parties to preparation of the MRS amendment applications, then this is not the case.  The applications can be prepared by just the landowners and developers near to existing infrastructure and amenities, but will need to include the EWSP total potential urban area (north or south of Dundebar Road).

 

It should also be noted that under LPP 5.3, it is intended that the MRS amendment applications would only be expected to be prepared at a ‘desk top’ level, and not involve the sort of detailed technical studies which will subsequently be required in preparation of the DSPs.

 

11.      Do CoW Administrators and Councillors recognise that smaller, identified land pockets could proceed to an MRS in a staged approach by dividing the 20 sq kms into 2, 3 or 4 smaller cells, according to the degree of ‘readiness’, and progressing each cell stage by stage; thereby maintaining the LPP 5.3 aims to ‘establish a comprehensive planning framework to develop East Wanneroo in an orderly and proper manner’?  If it is ‘control’ the CoW wants to maintain it would be easier with smaller areas of land.

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

See answers to questions 9 and 10 above.  It should also be noted that LPP 5.3 already divides the total area into two smaller areas (the north and south ‘districts’).

 

12.      Finally, do CoW administrators and councillors consider that’ individual differences’ are of no account and that a “one size fits all” approach is the best policy?

 

Response by Director, Planning and Sustainability

 

See answers to questions 9 and 10 above.

Issue

To consider advertising of draft Local Planning Policy 4.17: State Administrative Tribunal (LPP4.17) included as Attachment 1.

 

Background

Council at its meeting on 3 March 2015 resolved to support the development of a SAT Policy and tasked Administration with its development for reporting back to Council no later than June 2015.

 

At a Council Forum held on 7 April 2015, Elected Members discussed the key principles that could form a SAT policy in responding to reviews undertaken by the SAT.

Detail

The draft Policy applies to any planning decision made or direction notice issued by the City under the Planning & Development Act 2005 by Council or by Administration under delegated authority.

 

The draft Policy has been prepared based on principles aimed at achieving transparent, impartial and consistent decision making in responding to reviews lodged with the SAT. The draft Policy seeks a balance in the use of financial resources, community involvement and level of impact on the operational activity of Administration. The draft policy also contains information that gives a transparent and clear understanding of the process that the City will take when dealing with an appeal.

 

A number of key issues were raised by Elected Members at Council Forum. The following section outlines how Administration has addressed these issues and the adjustments that have been made and reflected in the draft Policy.

 

1.       When Independent Representation is engaged

 

Where a Council decision is inconsistent to Administration’s recommendation, it was questioned as to the degree of the inconsistency and whether or not Council needed to make a resolution to require independent representation. Administration has updated the Policy to include two tests to pass to engage independent representation:

 

·        The decision is a reversal to Administration’s recommendation, and

·        The decision is related to the reason for the SAT review.

 

It is acknowledged that discretion may be required when considering the degree of significance of a ‘reversal’ the decision has to be and how related the review must be to the original decision. It is intended that Administration would work with Council in considering how this applies to individual circumstances.

 

2.       Independent Report Author on SAT Matters

 

It was questioned who will be the report author to Council when a decision is required as part of a request for reconsideration under Section 31 of the SAT Act 2004 where an independent planning consultant has been engaged to represent the City. Although the City is independently represented in the SAT, Administration maintains its role to report to Council on the outcomes of any mediation and subsequent request for reconsideration. The draft Policy reflects this point for clarity.

 

3.       Confidentiality

 

The SAT considers it is generally desirable for an original decision-maker to consider an amended proposal in a meeting open to the public. Where legal opinion or advice is provided, that information is privileged and that is to be considered confidentially and held in private.

 

4.       Appeals against a Decision of SAT

 

Most SAT decisions can be subject to appeal. Generally, appeals can be made on a question of law to the Supreme Court. The draft policy has been adjusted to reflect that generally the City will not seek to appeal a decision of SAT, except where following legal advice it is considered the SAT made an error of law and/or there is an issue at stake that has significant implications for the City and/or local government. The draft Policy reflects this position.

 

5.       Notifying Elected Members of SAT Reviews

 

Elected Members will be notified of all SAT Reviews where Council was the decision maker for an application. Administration will provide Elected Members with progress updates and notify of hearing dates as soon as practical. It was requested that Elected Members be informed of all SAT reviews, including delegated decisions. It is intended that this information will be provided in the weekly Council Clipboard.

 

6.       Witness Out of Pocket Expenses

 

In some instances it may be appropriate to seek community member involvement to appear as a witness to provide evidence. Whilst it is acknowledged that witness are not to be paid, Elected Members raised the issue of whether out of pocket expenses should be paid to cover costs of appearing to the SAT, such as travel costs. The draft Policy reflects that the City will cover out of pocket expenses for community members who appear as a witness on behalf of the City.

 

An additional principle has been included in the draft Policy following Council Forum in relation to advertising of amended proposals that arise through the appeal process. Whilst the timeframe to consider amended proposals that arise through mediation is set by the SAT and is therefore out of the City’s control, the draft Policy requires that sufficient time be requested to allow advertising to those who made a submission on the original proposal. The draft Policy also requires that responses received by the City be included as part of the report to the decision maker in reconsidering a decision under review.

Consultation

It is proposed to advertise draft LPP 4.17 for public comment for a period of 21 days.  This meets the minimum requirement specified by DPS 2. It is proposed to advertise the draft Policy in the following manner, consistent with the requirements of DPS 2:

 

1.       Advertisement in a local newspaper for two consecutive weeks;

2.       Display on the City’s website; and

3.       Letters to relevant stakeholders as determined by the Director Planning and Sustainability.

Comment

A Policy is needed to consistently apply impartial and transparent decision making when responding to the State Administrative Tribunal (SAT) as no such Policy exists. This Policy seeks a balance in the use of financial resources, community involvement and level of impact on the operational activity of Administration in responding in a consistent, impartial and transparent manner to decisions and directions under review by the SAT.

 

The draft Policy is consistent with the City’s Local Planning Policy Framework and is to be used by Administration and Council for decisions made and directions issued by Council and Administration under delegated authority.

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 and either adopted with or without modifications or not proceeded with.

 

The draft Policy is consistent with and should be read in conjunction with the State Administrative Tribunal Act 2004 and the Planning & Development Act 2005.

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “4     Civic Leadership - Working with others to ensure the best use of our resources.

4.3    A Strong and Progressive Organisation - You will recognise the hard work and professionalism delivered by your council through your interactions and how our community is developing.

 

Risk Management Considerations

Policies and procedures are a framework upon which the City operates to ensure efficiency of operations.  Ineffective, irrelevant, inconsistent and/or non-compliant policies have a widespread effect on the City as a whole and may create unnecessary costs through fruitless administration and implementation.  At worst, lack of clarity in a policy may bring about unintentional non-compliance under both legislation and the City's own systems and processes.

 

Administration acknowledges that responding to applications for review in the State Administrative Tribunal has been identified as a risk area, needing impartial, transparent and consistent decision making.  A policy provides the first step in developing the appropriate framework to mitigate such risk.

Policy Implications

The development and adoption of a policy for this matter would complement the suite of policies adopted by Council and provide guidance on how to respond to applications for review with the State Administrative Tribunal.

Financial Implications

There may be additional costs to the City by engaging the services of professional legal services, independent planning consultants and independent expert witnesses. However this would be subject to the number and type of applications received by the City and the decisions that could be made for those applications.

Voting Requirements

Simple Majority

 

Recommendation

That Council pursuant to Clause 8.11.3.1(a) of District Planning Scheme No. 2 ADVERTISES draft Local Planning Policy 4.17: State Administrative Tribunal, as contained in Attachment 1, for public comment for a period of 21 days, by way of:

1.       Advertisements in a local newspaper for two consecutive weeks;

2.       Display on the City’s website; and

3.       Letters to relevant stakeholders as determined by the Director Planning and Sustainability.

Background

On 16 April 2014, proposed Amendment No. 32 to ASP 6 and Amendment No. 2 to ASP 42 was lodged with the City.

 

The Amendment area relates to the site commonly known as the Wyatt Grove Shopping Centre (WGSC). The site is bound by Gungurru Avenue to the north, Wyatt Road to the east, Nicholas Road to the south, and residential properties along Verteramo Way to the west. A location plan is included as Attachment 1.

 

The site is zoned Centre under ASP 6 and Commercial with a density coding of R40 under ASP 42. The site is subject to two Structure Plans as the site is zoned Centre under ASP 6, which under Clause 9.11.1 of District Planning Scheme No. 2 (DPS 2) requires the preparation and adoption of an Agreed Structure Plan prior to the commencement of development. As such ASP 42 was prepared, and adopted by the City on 3 February 2004, by the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) on 20 May 2004.

 

There have been multiple Planning Approvals issued for the site, specifically being four stages of development which are outlined below.

 

·        Stage 1 of WGCS (DA2012/1371) was approved by the City on 9 April 2013, incorporating the following:

 

-        15 tenancies (can be retail or non-retail land uses);

-        Liquor store;

-        Supermarket (Woolworths);

-        Landscaping; and

-        Carparking and vehicle/pedestrian access ways.

 

·        Stage 2 (DA2013/706) was approved by the City on 26 July 2013, incorporating the addition of a Medical Centre and an Office.

 

·        Stage 3 (DA2013/823) was approved by the City on 6 August 2013, incorporating the addition of a Recreation Centre and a Medical Centre.

 

·        Stage 4 (DA2014/894) was approved by the City on the 19 September 2014, incorporating four additional tenancies (which can be retail or non-retail land uses) and underground carparking.

 

On 11 March 2015, a Development Application for a Child Care Centre on the site was lodged with the City (DA2015/449). This is currently undergoing assessment by Administration, and is unrelated to the proposed Amendments.

 

Council at its 3 February 2015 Council Meeting (PS03-02/15) considered the Amendments, and resolved "that the motion be deferred to seek further advice on planning conditions." The applicant has since provided further information on the status of these issues. These outstanding planning compliance issues are discussed in detail in the Comment section of the report.

Detail

Amendment No. 32 to ASP 6 and Amendment No. 2 to ASP 42 proposes to increase the permitted retail net lettable area (NLA) from 4,250m2 to 5,500m2. The proposed Amendments are included as Attachment 2.

 

As the permitted retail floorspace is reflected in both ASP 6 and ASP 42, it is necessary to simultaneously amend the retail floorspace allocated for the Hocking Neighbourhood Centre in both Agreed Structure Plans.

 

DPS 2 provides the following definition of retail net lettable area:

 

"retail net lettable area: means the nettable area used for any of the purposes listed in Planning Land Use Category 5 – Shop/Retail (excluding hotels, taverns and nightclubs) of the WA Standard Land Use Classification (WASLUC)."

 

The proposed Amendments are intended to allow for additional shop-retail (PLUC 5) land uses to be accommodated in the existing WGSC. Shop-retail is defined in the WASLUC as "any activity which involves the sale of goods from a shop located separate to and/or in a shopping centre." Currently the shop-retail land uses approved on the site that contribute to the retail NLA are Beauty Parlour, Hardware Store, Liquor Store, Pharmacy, Shop, and Supermarket.

 

The applicant has identified 996m2 (five tenancies) of existing floorspace that was planned to accommodate commercial land uses. Commercial land uses are not defined in the WASLUC. However, based on the definitions within the WASLUC, commercial land uses would typically involve entertainment, administrative, clerical and professional activities. The approved commercial land uses on the site are Bank, Dry Cleaner, Laundromat, and Office. 

 

It is intended that existing vacant tenancies on the site will accommodate additional shop-retail land uses should the proposed Amendments be adopted.

Consultation

On 12 June 2014, the Manager, Planning Implementation, forwarded a memorandum to all Elected Members, providing the opportunity for members to request referral of the proposal to Council prior to advertising. No such requests were received and, as such, advertising of Amendment No. 32 to ASP 6 and Amendment No. 2 to ASP 42 commenced on 15 July 2014 in accordance with Clause 9.5 of District Planning Scheme No. 2 (DSP 2).

 

The Amendments were advertised for public comment for a period of 42 days by means of an on-site sign, an advertisement in the Wanneroo Times newspaper, notice on the City’s website and letters written to adjoining landowners. The submission period closed on 26 August 2014, with six submissions being received; five of which objected to the proposed Amendments. A summary of submissions received and Administration's responses are shown in Attachment 3.

 

The main issues raised during the advertising period relate to the following:

 

1.       Demand for additional retail floorspace; and

 

2.       Impact of increased traffic in the locality.

 

A more detailed discussion of these issues is provided in the Comment section.

Comment

Demand for Additional Retail Floorspace

 

A number of submissions were received during the public consultation period which objected to the increase in retail floorspace at the WGSC, on the basis that it is not necessary. The applicant's rationale for the proposed increased retail floorspace for the WGSC is based on a lack of interest in leasing commercial tenancies at the centre. The justification for the additional retail floorspace, and the impact that this additional retail floorspace may have on the surrounding centres, is discussed below.

 

A Retail Sustainability Assessment (RSA) has been prepared by Urbis on behalf of the applicant. This RSA shows that between April and December 2013, 47 of a total of 69 enquiries (68%) received by the leasing agent expressed interest for tenancies that can accommodate shop-retail land uses. The remaining enquiries were regarding non-retail land uses, which include medical, entertainment and childcare type land uses. Only one of these enquiries (less than 2%) was regarding a commercial land use. Also, the majority of the retail floorspace, being 4,140m2 of WGSC's permitted 4,250m2 is already occupied. The RSA demonstrates that there is a demand for additional shop-retail tenancies at the WGSC. The additional floorspace will allow for existing tenancies to be occupied with shop-retail land uses, rather than remain unoccupied due to the lack of market interest and demand, specifically for commercial tenancies. 

 

In considering the proposed increase in retail floorspace at the WGSC, it is also prudent to consider the impact that this may have on other centres within the Main Trade Area (MTA). The MTA is the geographical area which is served by the WGSC. Aside from the WGSC, other shopping centres located within the MTA are Wanneroo Central, located approximately 2 km to the north, and Pearsall Neighbourhood Centre, located approximately 1 km to the south of WGSC (the MTA is shown in Attachment 4).

 

The RSA has projected that the potential impact of the additional retail floorspace will reduce the retail turnover of Wanneroo Central and Pearsall Neighbourhood Centre by less than 1%. These impacts have been independently tested by the City's external consultant, MGA Town Planners.  These impacts are negligible, and are not considered to adversely affect the performance of these other centres.

 

The RSA demonstrates that the proposed increase of retail floorspace is justified as there is currently a significant demand from businesses to occupy tenancies that can accommodate shop-retail land uses within the WGSC. In addition, the proposal will have a negligible impact on the surrounding centres within the MTA. Based on this, the demand to increase the retail floorspace is acknowledged and is supported by Administration.

 

The Impact of Increased Traffic

 

A number of submissions were received during the public consultation period regarding the impacts of increased traffic as a result of the proposed Amendments. As a result of these, a Transport Assessment Report (TAR) was prepared by Uloth and Associates on behalf of the applicant.

 

The TAR assesses the impacts of increased traffic on the surrounding road network as a result of the proposed Amendments. Under the WAPC's Transport Assessment Guidelines for Developments, Thursday evenings and Saturday mornings are considered to be the two peak times for retail based land uses.

 

These guidelines also advise that for developments close to schools, or where traffic from a development would pass close to a school, it may be appropriate for the assessment to be undertaken during the week, as this would have greater impact on traffic as opposed to a Saturday. As Hocking Primary School is located 70m to the west of the WGSC, it is considered appropriate that the survey was carried out on a Thursday.

 

Under these guidelines, the peak pick-up/drop-off time for school traffic is 2:30pm to 3:30pm weekdays. The survey was conducted on a Thursday between 3pm and 6pm, capturing some of this school traffic, and traffic generated from the WGSC. Undertaking the survey during this peak period is considered appropriate as it reflects the peak time for traffic generation from both the school pick-up and the WGSC evening trade. As such, traffic would be greatest during this period compared to any other time of the week for both the WGSC and the school.

 

Currently, the WGSC generates an estimated 3,450 vehicle trips per day (vtpd) on a Thursday. A fully tenanted WGSC, with 4,250m2 of retail floorspace and 2,850m2 of non-retail/commercial floorspace, is projected to generate a total of 5,610 vtpd. As a result of the proposed Amendments, it is anticipated that the WGSC, with 5,500m2 of retail floorspace and 1,600m2 of non-retail/commercial floorspace, would generate an additional 670 vtpd. This would result in a total of 6,280 vtpd, and equates to an increase of 12% in vehicle movements on the surrounding roads. This is considered acceptable when assessing the capacity of the surrounding roads against the WAPC's Liveable Neighbourhoods Policy (LN), as detailed below.

 

The road network surrounding the subject site is made up of Gungurru Avenue (to the north), Wyatt Road (to the east) and Nicholas Road (to the south). For the purposes of the TAR, Gungurru Avenue has been separated into two sections (as shown in Attachment 5):

 

·        The eastern section extends for 30m between Wyatt Road and the eastern crossover to the site along Gungurru Avenue. This section has only two dwellings which gain primary access from Gungurru Avenue; and

 

·        The western section is located between the eastern-most crossover to the WGSC along Gungurru Avenue and the intersection with Verteramo Way. This section includes traffic generated by the adjacent primary school, and eight dwellings which have their access onto Gungurru Avenue located opposite the WGSC.

 

The western section of Gungurru Avenue is considered the critical section due to the eight dwellings and the school generating higher levels of traffic in addition to the WGSC compared to the eastern section of Gungurru Avenue.

 

The current and proposed capacity of the surrounding roads is shown in the table below:

 

Road

LN Indicative Volume (VTPD)

Current VTPD

3,000

(Access Street A)

1,210

1,430

+220

 

As shown above, the estimated volume for Wyatt Road, Nicholas Road, and the western section of Gungurru Avenue remains within the LN indicative traffic volumes. It is noted that conditional subdivision approval for Lot 51 (175) Nicholas Road was granted by the WAPC on 13 January 2015 (WAPC1261-14), to create eight residential lots which have direct access onto Nicholas Road. As these lots have not been created yet these were not included in the traffic count. Notwithstanding this, should these lots be developed, the dwellings would on these lots generate an addition 64 vtpd, taking the total vtpd along Nicholas Road to 1,494 vtpd. This is still within the LN indicative volume of 3,000 vtpd.

 

Under LN, the indicative volume only provides a guide of acceptable traffic levels. Acceptable traffic volumes are also to be determined on a case-by-case basis depending on the traffic volume and through traffic requirements of the streets.

 

The eastern section of Gungurru Avenue has an estimated 3,550 vtpd, which exceeds the 3,000 vtpd indicative volume. The TAR indicates that the volume of traffic on this eastern section of Gungurru Avenue is primarily vehicles accessing the subject site via the eastern-most crossover. As a result of this, only a small portion of vehicles travelling east along Gungurru Avenue will continue through to Wyatt Road. Similarly, only a small portion of vehicles travelling along Wyatt Road will travel through to the western section of Gungurru Avenue. Given this lack of through traffic, the additional vehicle movement as a result of the proposed Amendments are considered to have a negligible impact on the existing traffic movements along Gungurru Avenue. As such, the eastern section of Gungurru Avenue remains within the LN indicative volume for an Access Street A.

 

Additional Traffic Information

 

Since the Council Meeting on 3 February 2015, Uloth and Associates has provided further traffic information to support the proposal, which has been reviewed by Administration.

 

The applicant undertook a “SIDRA” analysis for the eastern section of Gungurru Avenue. A SIDRA analysis assesses the traffic flows and determines the amount of delays and queuing at intersections. The analysis was undertaken on the eastern-most crossover onto Gungurru Avenue.

The SIDRA analysis, which has been reviewed by the City, shows that vehicles turning left into the WGSC from Gungurru Avenue can enter the WGSC without having to wait for turning traffic from the opposite direction. As such, this junction is considered to operate at a level of Service A. Service A is the highest possible level of service, and indicates very good operating conditions with small traffic delays.

 

The traffic consultant undertook a site visit as part of this, and observed that some vehicles were briefly queuing while a vehicle exits the WGSC, before entering. This is not directly attributed to an increase in traffic, rather the internal layout of the carpark. The layout of the carpark includes some tight turning movements, which in some instances, may cause vehicles from opposite directions to briefly queue when turning in and out of the WGSC at the same time.

 

The carpark was constructed in accordance with the approval issued for the WGSC (DA2012/1371) and so is not a breach of Planning Approval. The applicant submitted a Development Application (DA2015/467) on the 13 March 2015 for modifications to the carpark to resolve this queuing. By modifying the layout of the carpark to make the easternmost crossover onto Gungurru Avenue left-in only, the manoeuvrability of vehicles within the carpark will increase and the brief queuing currently experienced will be alleviated. The modification does not result in the loss of any existing carparking bays on the site. The application was approved by Administration on 17 April 2015.

 

To ensure that these works will be undertaken in accordance with any approval granted by the City, the landowner has agreed that none of the additional retail floorspace that these Amendments will allow will be occupied until the works to modify the easternmost crossover adjacent to Gungurru Avenue have been completed. To ensure this, the following text is proposed to be inserted into Clause 3 Schedule 1 of ASP 6, and Clause 5 of ASP 42:

 

“No additional retail tenancies where they exceed the 4,250m2 permitted retail floorspace shall be occupied until the carpark has been modified to the satisfaction of the City of Wanneroo.”

 

Notwithstanding this, the additional traffic generated by the increased retail floorspace at WGSC is able to be accommodated within the surrounding road network.

 

Breach of Previous Planning Approval Conditions

 

In response to numerous enquiries and complaints received by the City, during and following the construction of the WGSC development, Administration has investigated alleged breaches and non-compliance with Planning Approval DA2012/1371. As part of this investigation, a compliance audit of the WGSC was undertaken to determine the extent of non-compliance with the conditions of Planning Approval DA2012/1371. Of the 28 conditions imposed as part of this Planning Approval, it was identified that 12 conditions had not been met and were outstanding.

 

At the previous Council meeting where these Amendments were considered, the outstanding conditions of Planning Approval were:

 

1.       The lodgement of a deposited plan which includes an easement in-gross for the carparking and vehicular access ways; and the provision of a truncation on the corner of Wyatt Road and Gungurru Avenue;

 

2.       The relocation of a lightpole which is currently within the footpath along Nicholas Road; and

 

3.       The screening of the bin storage area.

 

Since, this meeting, Western Power has approved the request to relocate the lightpole on 10 February 2015. On 8 April 2015, a site inspection confirmed that the lightpole had been relocated adjacent to the footpath.  The developer has also installed the required bin storage screens on the 16 March 2015. As a result, these matters are also considered to be resolved.

 

The only remaining outstanding issue is in regards to the lodgement of a deposited plan. The developer has prepared the deposited plan showing the easement in-gross, and the truncation. The City has been provided with a copy of this, and the deposited plan was lodged on 3 February 2015 with Landgate for its approval. Once Landgate has approved the new deposited plan, this matter will be considered to be resolved.

 

In light of the above, the outstanding issues of non-compliance have either been addressed, or are in the process of being addressed, by the developer. Once this matter has been resolved, the WGSC will be fully compliant with Planning Approval DA2012/1371. Notwithstanding this, issues of non-compliance with Planning Approval DA2012/1371 do not have any bearing on the determination of the proposed Amendments.

 

State Planning Policy 4.2 – Activity Centres for Perth and Peel

 

The subject site is considered a Neighbourhood Centre under the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) State Planning Policy 4.2 – Activity Centres for Perth and Peel (SPP 4.2).

 

The main function of a Neighbourhood Centre under SPP 4.2 is to provide for daily and weekly household shopping needs, community services and a small range of other convenience services.

 

The proposed Amendments are consistent with the objectives of SPP 4.2 and enable the WGSC to fulfil its function as a Neighbourhood Centre.

 

SPP 4.2 encourages a mix of land uses within centres to provide for a diversity and intensity of activity within the locality. A Neighbourhood Centre typically features supermarket/s, personal services and convenience shops. The WGSC provides a variety of land uses, such as those that have been previously approved for the centre under DA2013/1371.

 

The proposed Amendments enhance the ability of the WGSC to provide for diversity in activity. By increasing the permissible retail floorspace, additional shop-retail land uses will be able to occupy vacant tenancies, which can contribute to the diversity of activity within the WGSC. This is not currently possible, as the current maximum retail floorspace requirement has also been reached. As such, the proposed Amendments are considered to be consistent with SPP 4.2.

 

Local Planning Policy 3.2 – Activity Centres

 

The City of Wanneroo's Local Planning Policy 3.2 – Activity Centres, requires planning proposals for Centres to:

 

·        Provide access to a range of employment opportunities;

 

·        Not prejudice long term planning of centres; and

 

·        Encourage centres to evolve over time to fulfil their role within the SPP 4.2 hierarchy.

 

 

 

 

In respect to these considerations, Administration provides the following comments:

 

·        The RSA has demonstrated that the increased retail floorspace could provide an additional 83 jobs at the WGSC than if tenancies that were intended to accommodate commercial land uses remain vacant. In turn, this will provide additional employment opportunities within the locality.

 

·        The additional retail floorspace proposed will not prejudice the long term planning of the centre, as commercial land uses are still capable of operating within the WGSC.

 

·        The proposed Amendments encourage the evolution of the Neighbourhood Centre by allowing for flexibility in leasing of vacant tenancies. This will enable the WGSC to grow and mature in response to market demand.

 

Given this, the proposed Amendments are considered to be consistent with the objectives of LPP 3.2. 

 

Conclusion

 

In light of the above, Administration considers the proposed Amendments are acceptable for the following reasons:

 

·        It has been demonstrated that there is a significant demand for additional retail floorspace at the Wyatt Grove Shopping, while having a negligible impact on nearby centres;

 

·        The surrounding road network is considered capable of supporting the additional vehicles, and will have a negligible impact on traffic within the area; and

 

·        The proposed Amendments are compliant with the requirements of both SPP 4.2 and LPP 3.2.

Statutory Compliance

These Structure Plan Amendments have 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 Amendment, Council may refuse to adopt the amendment or resolve that the amendment is satisfactory with or without modifications. It is recommended that Amendment No. 32 to the East Wanneroo Cell 4 (Hocking and Pearsall) Agreed Structure Plan 6 and Amendment No. 2 to the Hocking Neighbourhood Centre Agreed Structure Plan No. 42 be approved without modifications.

Strategic Implications

To consider submissions received during public advertising of Amendment No. 2 to the Woodvale Agreed Structure Plan No. 64 (ASP 64) and adoption of the amendment.

 

Applicant

John Chapman Town Planning Consultant

Owner

Maria Catena Waterman & Paul Conti

Location

Lots 35 and 36 Wanneroo Road, Woodvale

Site Area

Approximately 4.9 hectares

MRS Zoning

Urban

DPS 2 Zoning

Urban Development

ASP 64 Zoning

Residential R25 & R30

 

 

Background

In August 2014, the City received a proposal to amend ASP 64 by recoding parts of Lots 35 and 36 Wanneroo Road, Woodvale from Residential R25 and R30 to Residential R40 and modifying the road layout.

Detail

Attachment 1 is the site plan showing the location of the subject lots. Attachment 2 contains an extract of ASP 64 structure plan map showing the current and proposed density codings and the road network of the amendment area.

 

The applicant has justified the amendment proposal as follows:

 

1.       Conti Winery and Restaurant located on Lot 36 are listed on the City's Municipal Inventory. ASP 64 does not provide adequately for the continuation of these heritage places on that lot;

 

2.       The amendment is aligned with the objectives of Directions 2031 and Beyond, which promotes higher residential densities and housing affordability; and

 

3.       The subject site is located in close proximity to a major employment generator (Wangara industrial area) and public transport services (Bus routes 389, 467 and 468).

 

The amendment will result in creating additional six lots with single house development potential.

Consultation

On 16 September 2014, the Manager, Planning Implementation 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 commenced on 14 October 2014 in accordance with Clause 9.5 of District Planning Scheme No. 2 (DPS 2) and Clause 4.0 of the City’s Local Planning Policy 4.2: Structure Planning for a period of 42 days concluding on 25 November 2014.

 

 

The amendment was advertised by means of an on-site sign, an advertisement in the Wanneroo Times newspaper, the City’s website and letters to adjoining landowners. The City received four submissions, by the conclusion of the advertising period. One of the submissions from a resident objected to the proposal. The remaining three submissions, which were from government agencies did not raise any objection to the proposal. A summary of submissions received and Administration’s responses are shown in Attachment 3.

Comment

The main issues raised in the submissions are discussed below.

 

Traffic

 

The amendment proposal would create an additional six lots with single house development potential. At the rate of 8 vehicle trips per dwelling per day, these six dwellings would generate an additional 48 vehicles per day (vpd). The City’s Transport and Traffic section has advised that the Access Streets proposed in this Estate of which the amendment area forms a part of, have the capacity to accommodate an additional 48 vpd.

 

Emergency Traffic Management Plan

 

Attachment 4 contains a concept subdivision plan for the amendment area. This plan depicts a large lot on Lot 35, Wanneroo Road, Woodvale, which the applicant in the future proposes to subdivide to create survey strata lots. The concept plan also shows access to the strata lots from a 10-metre wide common access way. As per the Fire Management Plan for the amendment area approved by the City, this concept plan shows a Trafficable Emergency Exit on to Wanneroo Road at the end of the common access way. Main Roads WA has supported this emergency exit subject to the applicant submitting an Emergency Traffic Management Plan along with an application for the subdivision of Lot 35.

 

Noise Study

 

Clause 5.17 of the statutory section of ASP 64 requires the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) to impose a condition for a Noise Study at the time of granting approval for a subdivision application. The Department of Planning officers have suggested that in accordance with the provisions of WAPC’s Road and Rail Transport Noise Policy, the applicant will need to submit the Noise Study along with an application for subdivision. Administration recommends that Clause 5.17 be amended accordingly.

 

The following additional comments are made by Administration on the amendment proposals.

 

Municipal Inventory

 

The Municipal Inventory adopted by Council on 26 April 2006 classifies Conti Restaurant and Winery as Category 2 Heritage Places with high level of protection and maximum encouragement to the owner to conserve the significance of the places. Attachment 1 depicts the Heritage Places on Lot 36. The applicant has modified the road layout within Lot 36 in order to contain the Heritage Places within a separate parcel of land. The applicant has clarified that Lot 36 will not be developed for the foreseeable future.

 


 

 

Department of Water

 

The amendment area abuts Yellagonga Regional Reserve to the west. The applicant had prepared a Local Water Management Strategy to assess the impact of the amendment proposal on the regional reserve. The Department of Water have examined the Local Water Management Strategy and has advised the City that it is satisfactory and acceptable for this proposal.

 

Local Planning Policy 3.1 – Local Housing Strategy

 

Attachment 5 contains a schedule demonstrating that the amendment satisfies the provisions of the City’s Local Planning Policy 3.1 – Local Housing Strategy.

 

Conclusion

 

John Chapman Town Planning Consultant has requested an amendment to ASP 64 to recode portions of Lots 35 and 36 Wanneroo Road, Woodvale from Residential R25 and R30 to Residential R40. The proposal is acceptable to the Department of Planning, MRWA, the Department of Water and Administration. It is therefore recommended that the proposed amendment be adopted and forwarded to the WAPC for its adoption and certification.

Statutory Compliance

This Structure Plan Amendment 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 amendment, Council may refuse to adopt the amendment or resolve that the amendment is satisfactory with or without modifications. It is recommended that the proposed amendment be approved without modifications.

 

On 2 October 2014, Elected Members were advised that as requested by the applicant, in accordance with the provisions of 8.1(g) of Part 8.1 – Structure Planning of the City's Delegated Authority Register, the amendment proposal will be reported to Council for its determination. Accordingly, the matter is being reported to Council.

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “2     Society - Healthy, safe, vibrant and active communities.

2.1    Great Places and Quality Lifestyle - People from different cultures find Wanneroo an exciting place to live with quality facilities and services.

Administration response

Recommendation

1

Simon Cashmore and Amy Leong

17, Cosimo Drive, Woodvale

Do not support the amendment proposal.

Discussions with the submittors indicate that they are concerned about the additional traffic generated by the proposed amendment.

 

Under the current coding the amendment area could yield 59 lots. As a result of the proposed recoding the total lot yield is likely to be 65 lots with single house development potential.

 

At the rate of 8 vehicle trips per day per dwelling, these additional six dwellings would generate 48 vehicle trips per day. The City’s Transport and Traffic section has assessed the Traffic report provided by the applicant and has advised that the roads in Chianti Estate of which the amendment area forms a part of have the capacity to carry the additional traffic.

No change.

2

Main Roads WA (MRWA)

The concept plan of the amendment area included in the explanatory report depicts a Trafficable Emergency Exit on to Wanneroo Road (Attachment 4). The Fire Management Plan for the amendment area approved by the City denotes this exit. MRWA has advised that this exit is acceptable subject to the preparation of an Emergency Traffic Management Plan (ETMP) at the subdivision stage to the satisfaction of the City and MRWA.

MRWA officers have advised that the ETMP is required to inform the movement of traffic safely into and out of the emergency exit in the event of emergency.

 

It is recommended the following provision be included in the statutory section of ASP 64:

 

5.18 Emergency Traffic Management Plan

 

To submit an Emergency Traffic Management Plan prepared to the satisfaction of the City of Wanneroo and Main Roads WA along with an application for the subdivision of Lot 35 Wanneroo Road, Woodvale.

4.1

 

Clause 5.17 of the statutory document of ASP 64 states that a Noise Study be prepared and implemented under a condition of subdivision. To accord with the WAPC’s SPP 5.4: Road and Rail Transport Noise and Freight Considerations in Land Use Planning, this clause needs to be amended to require the Noise Study to be submitted at the time of subdivision to the satisfaction of the WAPC and the recommendations of the study to form conditions of subdivision approval.

Clause 5.17 of ASP 64 states as follows:

 

5.17 Noise Study

 

The subdivider shall complete a ‘Noise Study’ and implement any recommended action to the satisfaction of Main Roads Western Australia. The City shall request the Western Australian Planning Commission to impose a condition at the time of the subdivider applying for subdivision of the land located within the Woodvale Structure Plan area.

 

The above provision implies that the noise study be required as a condition of a subdivision application.

 

Section 5.5 of SPP 5.4 states that “a noise study should generally be conducted as early as is practicable in the planning process, typically at the structure planning stage. The implementation of the outcomes of a noise assessment may become a condition of approval of a subdivision.”

 

It is recommended that clause 5.17 of ASP 64 be amended as suggested by the Department of Planning (DoP) to reflect the provisions of SPP 5.4 and the implementation of the recommendations of the study included as conditions of subdivision approval.

It is recommended that clause 5.17 of ASP 64 be deleted and be replaced with the following.

 

5.17 Noise Study

 

To submit a Noise report prepared to the satisfaction of the Western Australian Planning Commission along with a subdivision application and the recommendations of the Noise report to be included as conditions of subdivision approval.

4.2

 

The proposed lot boundaries shown on the amended structure plan map included in the statutory section should be removed.

The DoP officers have advised that by indicating the lot boundaries, it would limit the potential to make any variation at the subdivision stage.

It is recommended that the lot boundaries shown on amended structure plan map as shown in Attachment 2 to this report be deleted.

4.3

 

To add the word ‘Indicative’ to the title of Figure 5 (Attachment 4) in Clause 5.5 in the explanatory report.

Figure 5 in Clause 5.5 of the Explanatory Report is titled ‘Overall Development Proposals’. As it provides a guide to the future development of the amendment area, it is considered appropriate to add the word ‘Indicative’ to the title of Figure 5.

It is recommended that the word ‘Indicative’ to be added to the title of Figure 5 in clause 5.5 of the Explanatory Report.

4.4

 

The Trafficable Emergency Exit is acceptable subject to the satisfaction of MRWA.

See response 2 above.

As per item 2 above.

No.

Criteria Detail

LPP 3.1  Requirement for R40 coded Lots

Administration Comment

1.

Easy access/close proximity to retail and employment centres.

Between 400m and 800m of neighbourhood and town centres.

The amendment area although not in close proximity to ta neighbourhood or town centre it is located  opposite to Wangara Industrial which is one of the a major employment centre in the City.

2.

Easy access/close proximity to public transport with priority towards rail nodes and bus interchanges.

Within 250m of main bus routes which are not high speed through traffic routes or designated primary freight routes. ('Main' bus routes having a peak and non-peak frequency typical of most bus routes in Perth, as distinct from those which provide a clearly less frequent service).

Wanneroo Road and Woodvale Drive carry public transport services.

3.

Easy access/close proximity to areas of high amenity including public open space (POS) and recreational facilities.

This criterion has been applied spatially, and related to Council's POS policy as follows:

 

a)  within 250m of Neighbourhood POS that include at least one of the following:

·   Active playing field with sufficient "around the ground‟ space to permit simultaneous use.

·   A community centre or other community facility that supports community activity.

·   Landscaped passive recreation areas with informal recreation infrastructure:

-    BBQ‟s / Shade structures;

-    playgrounds;

-    exercise equipment;

-    multipurpose courts.

 

b)  Within 250m of District POS applied on a case-by-case basis, depending on the intensity of uses that may not always be compatible with higher densities;

 

c)  Regional Open Space considered similarly to b), and also noting that it may be for conservation and therefore of limited use for active and passive recreation purposes.

The amendment area abuts Yellagonga Regional Reserve. ASP 64 makes provision for public open space areas abutting the Yellagonga Regional Reserve.

4.

Easy access/close proximity to major arterial routes, educational institutions (including primary, secondary and tertiary institutions), community facilities (including libraries and medical centres).

This criterion has not been applied spatially, but rather the area concerned has been assessed in general terms regarding adequacy of the arterial routes, educational institutions and community facilities serving the area to cope with increased population and traffic arising from increased densities.

The amendment area is located about 1 km from the Woodvale Senior College located on Woodvale Drive to the west and abuts a Wanneroo Road which is Major arterial route.

Issue

To consider submissions on the proposed North Alkimos Local Structure Plan No. 73 (LSP 73) to determine the modifications required and its acceptability for final approval and forwarding to the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) for endorsement.

 

Applicant

Taylor Burrell Barnett (until September 2013) then CLE

Owner

Peet Alkimos Pty Ltd

Location

Lots 9001 and 9003 Marmion Avenue, Alkimos and various lots located between Lots 9001 and 9003 Marmion Avenue, Alkimos

Site Area

Approximately 241 hectares

MRS Zoning

Urban, Parks and Recreation Reservation, Primary Regional Road Reservation, Other Regional Road Reservation and Railways Reservation

DPS 2 Zoning

Urban Development, Regional Parks and Recreation Reservation, Primary Regional Road Reservation, Other Regional Road Reservation and Railways Reservation

 

 

Background

On 30 June 2009, Council resolved that draft LSP 73 was satisfactory subject to modifications (Item PS12-06/09), the extent of draft LSP 73 as advertised is depicted in Attachment 1.  The Structure Plan documents were subsequently modified by the applicant (Taylor Burrell Barnett) and on 20 July 2009 were forwarded to the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) for its adoption and certification.

On 11 November 2009, the WAPC advised the City that it had resolved to adopt draft LSP 73 subject to a number of modifications. After extensive negotiation between the proponent and the City, draft LSP 73 was presented back to Council (PS07-05/11) on 31 March 2011 in which these modifications were considered. Among the modifications was the requirement for the transit activity centre (located adjacent to the proposed North Alkimos train station) to have a centre structure plan (modification 38i). Administration did not consider the preparation of a separate structure plan for this centre necessary. Instead, it was recommended that a statutory provision be included in draft LSP 73 requiring a Detailed Area Plan (DAP) to be prepared for the activity centre, prior to subdivision and development.

 

This approach was supported in principle by Department of Planning (DoP) officers and as such Council resolved that the modifications were satisfactory. On 4 April 2012, after negotiation between Administration and the proponent to ensure the documents were correct, the modified version of draft LSP 73 was sent to the WAPC.

 

During the assessment of the modified documentation the DoP officers determined that modification 38i had not been undertaken and was required prior to WAPC endorsement. The reasons identified by the WAPC for this was to provide for comprehensive planning of the area and to prevent the entirety of the transit precinct being developed for residential land uses with no mixed use or commercial potential.

 

In addition to highlighting that modification 38i had not been undertaken, on 13 March 2014, the WAPC advised the City that additional modifications to draft LSP 73 would be required. These modifications were mainly associated with the removal of reference to the development of the transit precinct as this would be addressed through a centre structure plan. A schedule of modifications from the WAPC dated 13 March 2014 is included in Attachment 2.

 

The applicant was informed of the WAPC decision and, after numerous discussions with the City and WAPC, requested that the matter be reconsidered. The proponent’s justification included;

 

·    The train station would no longer be provided by the Public Transit Authority;

·    Activity Centres require time to evolve; and

·    Criteria could be drafted to ensure that development could occur in the first generation as residential but, when the market warranted, could be converted to commercial land uses.

 

On 24 June 2014 the Statutory Planning Committee of the WAPC (SPC) reconsidered the matter and resolved that modification 38i, requiring a centre structure plan for the transit precinct, was no longer required (Attachment 3) however, the structure plan would require a special control area over the transit precinct.

 

The SPC decision superseded a number of the modifications which were required from the WAPC on 13 March 2014 (Attachment 2) and therefore are no longer required to be made. Those modifications from 13 March 2014 that were not superseded are not considered to materially depart from Council’s previous decision. Examples of such modifications include removing the requirements already covered by state policies (such as the requirement for retails needs assessment and coastal management) as well as providing greater clarity for the location of the primary school.

 

Draft LSP 73 has now been modified by the applicant to incorporate all of the WAPC's required modifications. This modified version of draft LSP 73 is included as Attachment 4.

On 27 March 2015, Elected Members were notified of Administrations intention to determine the draft LSP 73 under delegated authority. A request was received from an Elected Member for consideration of the WAPC’s modifications to be presented to Council for determination and as such is the subject of this report.

 

Whilst draft LSP 73 has been substantially delayed in its finalisation and prior to its endorsement, subdivision applications have been approved by the WAPC, creating approximately 900 lots and approximately 650 homes have been built or are under construction within the structure plan area. 

Detail

Site

Draft LSP 73 originally related to Lots 9001 and 9003 Marmion Avenue, Alkimos. During the assessment period, the WAPC approved the creation of approximately 900 residential lots within the draft LSP 73 area prior to its finalisation.  Draft LSP 73 covers an area of approximately 241 hectares.

 

Proposal

As discussed, the modifications which were required by the WAPC on 13 March 2014 were mainly associated with the Special Control Area, however, also included other modifications including;

·    The movement of R-Code Variations from the Structure Plan to Detailed Area Plans;

·    Inclusion of provisions to deal with transitions between substantially different densities;

·    The wording associated with the allocation of densities and density ranges; and

·    Minor administrative adjustments.

These modifications are discussed further in the body of the report as well as in Attachment 2.

Consultation

Adequate publicity of the draft LSP 73 had already been undertaken between 24 March and 5 May 2009 and therefore it is recommended that Council waive (further) public consultation of the modified LSP 73 under the provisions of clause 9.4.1 a) of DPS 2 and clause 3.8 of LPP 4.2 for the following reasons:

 

·        The modifications required by the WAPC and those proposed by the applicant do not significantly or materially depart from the version that was advertised for public comment; and

 

·        Readvertising of the modified structure plan is unlikely to generate any new or different submissions than those previously received and would also not likely alter Administration's support for the modifications.

Comment

Special Control Area

The intention of the Special Control Area is to ensure that subdivision creates lots of a size which are capable of accommodating the Mixed Use product adjacent to the main roads, high employment generators and the future service commercial area to the north. In addition to this, the Special Control Area would also include a number of special development provisions to ensure the area provides an adaptable built form capable of intensifying to non-residential uses over time. The special development provisions for the Special Control Area include;

·    Nil setback requirements (to front and sides) to ensure a continuous built form;

·    Parking provision for non-residential land uses;

·    Provision of awnings for pedestrian shelter;

·    Provision of areas capable of adaptation to a non-residential use through direct access to the street and adequate glazing;

·    Integrated signage; and

·    Site cover concessions so as not to restrict mixed use potential.

 

The above special development provisions were the result of extensive meetings between the City (including the Manager Planning Implementation and former Director Planning and Sustainability), the DoP (including Executive Director and Chairman) and the proponents. The provisions will provide an opportunity for business investment and employment creation, while still allowing a genuine mix of residential and employment uses and providing for generational change of the buildings and places over time, as the economy of the area matures.

Other Modifications

Overall, the modifications required by the WAPC are administrative or editorial in nature and do not significantly or materially alter the intent of draft LSP 73.  With this said, it is noted that the WAPC has required some modifications for locational criteria and density ranges through the Coastal Village Precinct (modification 12), Central Precinct (modification 15) and Eastern Precinct (modification 18). The changes to the locational criteria and density ranges relate to the creation of only two bands of R-Coding (Medium and High). Having two bands allows greater flexibility at subdivision stage to ensure a mixture of housing types and styles without providing incompatible densities adjacent to one another.

The revised wording for the locational criteria has changed to a format which is consistent with other adapted structure plans (such as ASP 82). In addition, modification 7 requires a DAP where substantially different densities abut one another to include provisions to address and alleviate any possibility of contrasting built form outcomes.

Conclusion

Administration considers the modifications required by the WAPC do not significantly or materially alter the version of LSP that was adopted by Council. It is therefore recommended that Council determine the duly modified draft LSP 73 to be satisfactory and forward the LSP to the WAPC for its adoption and certification.

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 the Local Structure Plan No 73 be approved without further modifications.

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “2     Society - Healthy, safe, vibrant and active communities.

2.1    Great Places and Quality Lifestyle - People from different cultures find Wanneroo an exciting place to live with quality facilities and services.

Objective ix) relating to the Transit Precinct to either be modified to reflect that a separate detailed structure plan will be required for this Precinct or this objective to  be deleted.

Modification no longer applicable.

As per Modification 1 above.

 

Part 1 – Statutory Section

 

 

Table 1 (General Planning Requirements for the LSP Area)

 

3.

Clause 2.5 to be deleted.

Modification Accepted.

This modification, along with modification 11 below, removes the R-Code Variations from the structure plan and places the requirement for these into Detailed Area Plans (DAP). This modification only consolidates the existing requirements and does not alter what would usually be dealt with through a DAP.

4.

Clause 2.6 to be modified as follows:

(i)         (a), (b), (d) and (g) to be deleted.

(ii)        Remove reference to Centre 4 from 2.6 (f) given that a separate structure plan and not a DAP will need to be prepared for the Transit Precinct.

(iii)       Inclusion of an additional item into this Clause which deals with built form transition where differences between densities exist.

Modifications Accepted.

i)   The deletion of these requirements for DAP’s will not fetter the City to require DAP’s for other purposes as covered by clause 9.14.1 of the District Planning Scheme No 2.

ii)  As per Modification 1 above.

iii) The inclusion of a requirement for a DAP where lots of substantially different densities (i.e. low, medium, high) abut one another is encouraged and will reduce potential impacts from incompatible density.

5.

Clause 2.7 reference to 2.6 (a) to (f) to be modified accordingly.

Modification Accepted.

Minor administrative adjustments are not considered to impact the intent of the structure plan or impact the surrounding owners, only ensure that the structure plan is correctly interpreted.

6.

Clause 2.8 to be deleted.

Modification Accepted.

The modification is covered by 7 (iii) below which only moves the paragraph discussing transition between density codes to the requirements in the DAP.

 

Minor administrative adjustments are not considered to impact the intent of the structure plan or impact the surrounding owners, only ensure that the structure plan is correctly interpreted.

7.

Clause 2.9 to be modified as follows:

(i)         Reference to Tables 3 – 7 to be modified to reflect the removal of Table 6 given that the Transit Precinct is required to be included within the Centre zone requiring a separate detailed structure plan to be prepared.

(ii)        2.9(d) relating to POS to be deleted.

(iii)       Inclusion of an additional item into this clause which deals with built form transition where differences between the densities exist.

Modifications Accepted.

i)   As per Modification 1 above.

ii)  The exact location of POS should be undertaken at subdivision stage and not at DAP stage.

iii) The inclusion of a requirement for a DAP where lots of substantially different densities (i.e. low, medium, high) abut one another is encouraged and will reduce potential impacts form incompatible density.

 

8.

Clause 2.10 remove reference to Centre 4 given that a separate structure plan and not a DAP will need to be prepared for the Transit Precinct and update referencing to table numbering accordingly.

Modification no longer applicable.

As per Modification 1 above.

9.

Clause 3.1 reference to Tables 3 -7 to  be modified to reflect the removal of Table 6 given that the Transit Precinct is required to be included within the Centre 

Modification no longer applicable.

As per Modification 1 above.

10.

Clause 4.1 – second sentence which refers to “The information included in Table 8 shall be lodged at this stage specified in Table 8” to be deleted.

Modification Accepted.

The modification is removing the duplication as the Part 1 text repeats itself relating to timing of when information is required. The modification is only deleting superfluous information and therefore not affecting the intent of the SP or adjoining land owners.

 

Tables 2A, 2B and 2C (Variations to ‘Acceptable Development’ Requirements of the R-Codes

 

11.

Tables 2A, 2B and 2C (including related references to these Tables elsewhere within Part 1 of the LSP) to be removed.

Modification Accepted.

As per Modification 3 above.

 

Table 3 (Coastal Village Precinct)

 

12.

Locational Criteria (Clause 2.1) to be modified to read as follows:

             “The allocation of residential densities on the Residential Density Code Plan in this Precinct shall be in accordance with the following locational criteria:

a)   R20-R60

i)          Medium densities of R30 to R60 in areas of high amenity including within 400 metres of Centre 1, around public open space and adjacent to public transport or neighbourhood connector routes.

ii)         Low density of R20 in areas that respond to and protect the parabolic dunal system and elsewhere within the precinct.

b)   R40-100

i)          High density of R100 for the iconic building sites identified on Plan 3 and within Centre 1.

ii)         Medium to high densities of R40 to R100 within 200 metres of Centre 1.

iii)         Medium densities of R40 to R60 are to be provided elsewhere as appropriate.

Modification Accepted.

The revised wording for the locational criteria is changing the wording to a format which has been used in other structure plans (I.e. ASP 82)

 

Modifications were also made to the density coding of the costal precinct from R20 – R40 to R20 – R60 and R40 – R80 to R40 to R100

 

This was to create only two bands of R-Coding (Medium and High) which allows greater flexibility at subdivision stage to ensure a mixture of housing types and styles without providing incompatible density’s adjacent to one another.

 

Modifications for the wording/layout associated with the locational criteria is administrative and will not impact on the intent of the SP.

 

This was to create only two bands of R-Coding (Medium and High) which allows greater flexibility at subdivision stage to ensure a mixture of housing types and styles without providing incompatible density’s adjacent to one another.

 

13.

Clause 3.3 all wording after ‘State Coastal Planning’ to be deleted so that this Clause states: ‘Coastal Foreshore setbacks and maximum building heights are to be consistent with State Planning Policy 2.6 – State Coastal Planning Policy.

Modification Accepted.

The requirement to comply with specific provisions of State Planning Policy 2.6 are still the responsibility of the developer even if they are not directly stated in the SP.

The modification is only deleting superfluous information and therefore not affecting the intent of the SP or adjoining land owners.

14.

Clause 3.4 and the related notation on LSP plan to be modified to reflect the Alkimos-Eglinton DSP which state: ‘The north-south road on the western side of the WWTP which traverses the ‘Parks and Recreation’ reserve is supported in principle and is subject to further approval from the Environmental Protection Authority.

Modification Accepted.

The modification is only changing the words to be consistent with the District Structure Plan. As per the previous statement further works for the exact location of the north-south road is subject to further planning.

 

Minor administrative adjustments are not considered to impact the intent of the structure plan or impact the surrounding owners, only ensure that the structure plan is correctly interpreted.

 

Table 4 (Central Precinct)

 

15.

Locational criteria (2.1) to be modified to read as follows:

‘The allocation of residential densities on the Residential Density Code Plan in this Precinct shall  be in accordance with the following locational criteria:

a)   R20-R60

i)          Medium densities of R30 to R60 in areas of high amenity including around public open space, within 400 metres of Centre 2 and 3 and adjacent to the Primary School.

ii)         Low density of R20 elsewhere within the precinct.’

Modification Accepted.

As per Modification 12 above.

16.

Clause 3.2 is to be deleted.

Modification Accepted.

The modification is based on the requirement for Retail Sustainability Assessment which already exists under State Planning Policy 4.2

17.

Clause 4.1(b) reference to ‘the vicinity’ to be deleted given that Plan 1 already shows the location of the Primary School. Replace with appropriate wording to provide that can be a ‘P’ use in the location of the Primary School as identified on Plan 1.

Modification Accepted.

This modification aims to remove the vague nature of ‘the vicinity’ which could allow the developers to place the school a large distance away and argue that it is in ‘the vicinity’. The amended wording will still allow for flexibility should it be required through subdivision stage however provides more clarity on the exact location of the school.

 

The intent of the clause does not change however there is greater clarity provided to potential landowners (in the SP and surrounding areas) of where the location of the school will be.

 

Table 5 (Eastern Precinct)

 

18.

Locational criteria (2.1) to be modified to read as follows:

‘The allocation of residential densities on the Residential Density Code Plan in this Precinct shall be in accordance with the following locational criteria:

a)   R20-R80

i)          High density of R80 within 400 metres of the possible future railway station.

ii)         Medium densities of R30 to R60 in areas of high amenity including around public open space and within 800 metres of possible future railway station.

iii)         Low density of R20 elsewhere with the precinct.’

Modification Accepted.

Unlike modification 12 and 15 there is no change in density code and therefore the modification is entirely administrative.

 

Table 6 (Transit Precinct)

 

19.

Table 6 is not applicable given that this entire Precinct is required to be included within the Centre Zone requiring a separate detailed structure plan to be prepared. All referencing to this Table within Part 1 is to be updated accordingly.

Modification no longer applicable.

As per Modification 1 above.

 


Table 8 (Subdivision and Development Requirements)

 

20.

A modified Table 8 is to be inserted.

Modification Accepted.

The revised table 7 (previously table 8) was created through negotiation between the City, DoP and developers and provide a clearer list of requirements for subdivision and post subdivision stages.

 

Plans

 

21.

Plans 1 and 2 to be modified as follows:

(i)         Transit Precinct (Precinct 4) to be included within the Centre Zone in accordance with WAPC modification 38(i) to ensure that a detailed structure plan is prepared for this area.

(ii)        Removed references to ‘Mixed Use’ and ‘Business’ zones from the Legend given that these zonings are not applicable.

(iii)       ‘Groundwater Treatment Plan Chlorine Hazard Buffer Zone’ can be removed.

Modifications Accepted.

i)   As per Modification 1 above.

ii)  As per Modification 1 above.

iii) Further correspondence has been received from the Department of Water identifying that there is no need for the limitation of land uses surrounding the Groundwater Treatment Plan. As such the buffer can be removed from the plan.

22.

Approved physical processes setback to be added to Plan 1.

Modification Accepted.

The inclusion of the physical processes setback will only provide greater clarity for development abutting the coast.

The setback would have been enforced through State Planning Policy 2.6 even if this modification was not included and therefore it does not impact the intent of the SP.

23.

Plan 3 to be modified to:

(i)         Reflect the R-Code ranges specified in the modified locational criteria for each respective Precinct.

(ii)        Remove the R-Coding for the Transit Precinct given that this Precinct is to be included within the Centre Zone

Modifications Accepted.

i)   As per modifications 12, 15 and 18 above the revised densities are supported and should be matched on the structure plan.

ii)  As per Modification 1 above.

 

Part 2 – Explanatory Section

 

24.

Part 2 to be modified accordingly to reflect the inclusion of Precinct 4 (Transit Precinct) within the Centre Zone requiring the preparation of a separate structure plan for the Precinct.

Modification no longer applicable.

As per Modification 1 above.

Attachment 3: Modifications required by Western Australian Planning Commission on 24 June 2014

 

No.

Western Australian Planning Commission’s SPC Resolution

Officer Comment

 

1.

Advise the applicant that it is prepared to delete Modification 38(i) subject to Local Structure Plan 73 being modified to insert a Special Control Area over the proposed Mixed Use Zone (in its entirety) and additional statutory provisions being included to ensure that subdivision within the Special Control Area creates lots of a size which are capable of accommodating the Mixed Use Walk Up product adjacent to the distributor roads, high employment generators and the future service commercial area to the north.

 

Modification Accepted.

Council at its meeting of 31 March 2011 resolved that the modification to require a centre zone was not acceptable and that a DAP would be sufficient. This modification fulfils the same function by requiring criteria within the SP part 1 text.

 

It is therefore not considered to depart from the previous decision of Council.

2.

To advise the applicant that it may be prepared to reconsider the requirements to provide lots capable of accommodating the “Mixed Use Walk Up” product adjacent to the future service commercial area to the north upon the submissions of further information which demonstrates a satisfactory interface between these lots and the future service commercial area. The applicant is advised to liaise with the adjoining developer in this regard.

Modification Accepted

This is provided for advice to the applicant only and does not impact the structure plan.

Issue

To consider a development application for a proposed Single House Addition (Patio) to an existing Single House at Lot 1078 (17) Seaspray Crescent, Jindalee.

 

Applicant

One Stop Patio Shop

Owner

Background

On 9 January 2015, the City received a development application for a patio as an addition to a Single House located at Lot 1078 (17) Seaspray Crescent, Jindalee. The subject lot is 561m2 in area, is zoned ‘Urban Development’ under the City’s District Planning Scheme No. 2 and zoned Residential under the Lot 12 Jindalee Agreed Structure Plan No. 36, with a residential density coding of R20.

Detail

The site plan and elevations depicting the proposal are included as Attachment 1. The proposed patio is 14m in length, 3.1m in width, with post heights of 2.6m and a ridge height of 3.4m. The proposed finished floor level of the patio is the same level as the existing house. The patio roof is proposed to be setback 0.5m from western lot boundary. This is a variation to Clause 5.1.3 of the Residential Design Codes (R-Codes) which requires a setback of 1.5m.

Consultation

Pursuant to Part 4.2 of the R-Codes, consultation was undertaken by the City in writing to the affected landowners adjoining the western lot boundary advising them of the proposal. Consultation was undertaken for a period of 14 days commencing on 18 February 2015 and concluding on 4 March 2015. One (1) submission raising objections to the proposal was received from the landowners at Lot 1079 (19) Seaspray Crescent, Jindalee. A summary of the submission is included as Attachment 2. The major issues in this submission relate to the impact of the patio protruding above the fence line.


 

Comment

Delegation to Determine Application

 

Pursuant to Part 8.3 (b) of the City’s Delegation of Authority Register, the application may be considered under delegation if, it is the view of the Manager, Planning Implementation that the objections do not raise relevant planning considerations that cannot be specifically addressed or overcome be modification of the proposal, or imposition of appropriate conditions of approval.

 

In this instance, Administration is of the opinion that the objection raises relevant planning considerations in relation to the impacts of building bulk. Administration does not consider that these can be addressed by modification or imposition of conditions. Therefore, the application cannot be considered under delegated authority and must be determined by Council.

 

Assessment of Application

 

In accordance with Part 2 of the R-Codes, if a proposal does not meet the 'deemed-to-comply' provisions, the City is to exercise its judgement to consider the merits of the proposal having regard to the relevant 'design principles'. As the proposed patio does not meet the 'deemed-to-comply' requirements of Clause 5.1.3 of the R-Codes, it has been assessed against the corresponding 'design principles' as detailed below.

 

Design Principles – Clause 5.1.3 P3.1

Administration Comments

Reduce impacts of building bulk on adjoining properties;

The impact of building bulk on the adjoining property is considered minimal due to the height of the patio. The patio posts are 2.6m in height, leaving only 0.8m of the posts protruding over the existing 1.8m high dividing fence. The height of the dividing fence is indicated on the attached site plan. Whilst the pitched roof of the patio reaches 3.4m in height, the top of the ridge is setback 2.05m from the lot boundary.

 

In addition, the proposed patio is unenclosed on the western and southern sides. Generally, building bulk arises from large solid walls and structures that impact the amenity of the adjoining properties. The unenclosed design of the patio ensures that the impact of building bulk is reduced.

Provide adequate direct sun and ventilation to the building and open spaces on the site and adjoining properties; and

Clause 5.4.2 of the R-Codes sets development standards for solar access for adjoining sites and requires that the shadow cast onto the adjacent lot at midday, 21 June does not exceed 25%. The existing dwelling on the subject lot casts a 6m2 shadow on the southern adjoining property at midday, 21 June. The proposed patio will cast in an additional 2.5m2 shadow on the southern adjoining property, resulting in 8.5m2 overshadowing in aggregate, which represents 1.31% of the total site area of the southern adjoining property. The proposal therefore satisfies the requirements of Clause 5.4.2 and it is considered the provision of direct sunlight to the building and open spaces on the site and adjoining properties is adequate. It is noted that the objection to the proposal was received from the western adjoining property owners and no overshadowing will fall on the western adjoining property.

 

In regards to the ventilation to the buildings and open spaces on the subject lot and adjoining properties, the patio is an unenclosed structure and therefore will not restrict ventilation.

Minimise the extent of overlooking and resultant loss of privacy on adjoining properties.

The finished floor level of the patio is proposed to be the same as the existing ground level. Therefore, the proposed patio will not result in overlooking on adjoining properties and the privacy of the adjoining properties will be maintained by the existing dividing fence.

 

In light of the above, the proposed setback variation for the patio is considered to meet the relevant ‘design principles’ of the R-Codes. The patio also satisfies all other requirements of the R-Codes. Furthermore, as indicated in the summary of submission (Attachment 2), Administration considers that the issues raised in the letter of objection have been addressed and no modification to the proposal is required. It is therefore recommended that Council approve the proposed Patio at Lot 1078 (17) Seaspray Crescent, Jindalee.

Statutory Compliance

This application has been assessed in accordance with the City of Wanneroo’s District Planning Scheme No. 2.

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “2     Society - Healthy, safe, vibrant and active communities.

2.2    Healthy and Active People - We get active in our local area and we have many opportunities to experience a healthy lifestyle.

Issue

To consider a development application for a Child Care Centre at 20 Celestine Street, Wanneroo (DA2014/1510).

 

Applicant

Brett Rae

Owner

Brett & Damon Rae

Location

Lot 111 (20) Celestine Street, Wanneroo

Site Area

710m²

DPS 2 Zoning

Residential R20

 

 

Background

On 21 August 2014, the City received a development application for a Child Care Centre on Lot 111 (20) Celestine Drive, Wanneroo. The application has been submitted by the owner of the property, Brett Rae. The site currently contains a single residential house and associated outbuildings. A location plan is included as Attachment 1.

Detail

The subject site is zoned Residential with a density coding of R20 under the City of Wanneroo's District Planning Scheme No.2 (DPS 2). The site is located on the corner of Celestine Street and Ruthin Way, Wanneroo and the following development is proposed:

 

·    A Child Care Centre within the existing Single House of approximately 95m² floor space, to cater for a maximum of 15 children and a maximum of 3 staff members;

·    10 car parking bays, with 4 bays being located on site, and 6 (including one disabled ACROD parking bay), being located within the road reserve on Ruthin Way;

·    Incidental development, including a footpath adjacent to the external car bays, fencing, a small pergola, a cubby house and internal pathways.

 

The proposed Child Care Centre is designated as a 'D' (discretionary) use within the Residential zone, as per Table 1 - Zoning Table of the City's District Planning Scheme No. 2 (DPS 2). A site plan is included as Attachment 2.

 

The Child Care Centre is intended to cater for no more than 15 students, with the intended age group being three to four year olds. The students would be split into two groups, with one group attending on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and one group attending on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The applicant has requested opening hours of the child care centre from 8am to 4pm, Monday to Friday. This would allow for the child care sessions to run from approximately 9am to 3.30pm. Staff numbers would be a maximum of three (one Director and two staff) at any time. 

 

There are no changes proposed to the existing building footprint of the dwelling. There are minor internal changes proposed, including converting the three existing bedrooms into a library, a staff room, and an office respectively. The existing bathroom/laundry area would be converted to facilitate an adult/Disabled Access toilet and a separate children’s toilet and bathroom area. The kitchen, living and dining areas would remain the same. There is no change to the external façade or appearance of the dwelling.

 

Neither the applicant, nor any other person are intending to reside in the premises.  As such, the building will be used entirely for the Child Care Centre use.

 

The proposed footpath external to the site would link the proposed car parking within the road reserve, to the entry path of the site itself. There is no existing path network within this area to connect to, with the exception of the opposite side of Celestine Street. Neither Ruthin Way, nor Beelara Way and Beelara Park to the south of the subject site have an existing path network.

Consultation

Public consultation was undertaken by way of a sign erected on site and landowners within a 100m radius of the subject site notified in writing. At the conclusion of the comment period (21 days) seven submissions were received, of which six raised objections to the proposal and one submission was in support of the proposal. A summary of submissions received and Administration’s responses are shown in Attachment 3.

 

The main issues raised during the advertising period and following detailed assessment by Administration relate to:

 

·        Increase in traffic volumes and traffic safety issues, particularly in relation Celestine Street;

·        Increase in noise levels as a result of the proposed use;

·        Provision of car parking within the road reserve; and 

·        Appropriateness of the proposed Child Care Centre use in a Residential area.

 

A more detailed discussion of the major issues considered in the assessment of the Child Care Centre application is provided in the Comment section.

Comment

Traffic Impact

 

Concerns were raised during the public consultation period as to the existing traffic congestion on Ruthin Way and Celestine Street, and the potential for the Child Care centre to increase the traffic significantly.

 

The site currently generates in the order of 10 trips per day, based on the existing residential uses of the site (Shawmac, 18 March 2014). At full capacity, the proposed development would generate a maximum of 49 trips per day total.

 

Ruthin Way is considered to be a ‘Local Access Street’ as per Liveable Neighbourhoods and is designed to a maximum capacity of 1000 vehicles per day. Celestine Street is considered to be an ‘Access Street C’, and is designed to carry a maximum of 3000 vehicles per day. In 2012 (the latest traffic count data available to the City) Ruthin Way currently carried under 300 vehicles per day, while Celestine Street carried just under 1900 vehicles per day. This is a maximum figure recorded for either road, with the average being a lesser figure.

 

The additional trips generated by the development of the site as a Child Care Centre would account for less than a 4% increase in the average existing daily traffic volume on adjacent roads. The TIA was referred to the City's Traffic and Transport engineers during assessment of the application. It was confirmed that the projected traffic volumes within the TIA are within acceptable thresholds for both Celestine Street and Ruthin Way. It was not considered that approval of the Child Care Centre would adversely impact on traffic in the locality.

 

 

 

Noise Impact

 

Concerns regarding potential noise associated with the proposed Child Care Centre were raised during the consultation process.

 

The development application was supported by an Acoustic Assessment, as required for any application involving a Child Care Centre in accordance with Local Planning Policy 2.3: Child Care Centre (LPP 2.3). The Acoustic Assessment provided (Herring Storer Acoustics, 11 April 2014) considered the potential noise emissions from the proposed Child Care Centre, including children playing outside, vehicle movements within the proposed parking areas and air conditioning units.

 

In terms of child play activities, prediction of the worst-case noise propagation with 15 children outside and with a standard 1.8m boundary fence, compliance with the Environmental Protection (Noise) Regulations 1997 would be achieved at all adjoining residential locations during the day.

 

Vehicular noise, including closing of doors and engine start-up, would comply with the relevant criteria at all neighbouring residences at all times. Noise emissions from any air conditioning unit would also comply with the Regulatory criteria provided that any conditioning units are located on the eastern side of the dwelling.  It is noted that the existing dwelling has an evaporative air conditioning ventilation system located on the roof that has been in place for a minimum of 10 years. Evaporative systems are generally quieter than condensing units, and would be unlikely to cause increased noise emissions.

 

The Acoustic Report demonstrates that the proposal is within the noise emission thresholds set out by the Environmental Protection (Noise) Regulations 1997, and that no noise-attenuation treatments are required.

 

Car Parking Bays

 

The application proposes a total of 10 car bays, including 5 standard bays and one disabled access bay within the road reserve of Ruthin Way. The required number of bays for a Child Care Facility is dependent on the total number of staff and students, as set out in LPP 2.3. The required number of bays for this proposal based on 15 students is 5 bays, plus 1 bay per staff member. A total of 8 bays are required.

 

The 4 bays provided on the site are intended as staff bays, with the bays within the road reserve provided for customers/students. Car parking in the road reserve is not uncommon, and is considered capable of support for the following reasons:

 

·        The use of the road reserve for car parking embayments is consistent with the use of the reserve;

·        The width of the existing verge of Ruthin Way adjacent to the subject site is capable of safely accommodating the proposed embayments;

·        The proposed standard car bays within the road reserve are 2.6m in width and 5.0m in length, as recommended by the Australian Standard AS 2890.5 – Parking Facilities – On Road Parking;

·        The disabled access bay also complies with current standards;

·        The bays have been located as far south as possible in order to maximize the distance between the first bay and the intersection of Celestine Street/Ruthin Way;

 

 

 

·        The proposed car parking bays within the road reserve will be entirely at the cost of the proponent, and a condition worded to that effect will be included on the recommended conditions of any approval; and

·        The proposal was referred to the City’s Land Development; Asset Management; Traffic and Transport; Property Services and Rangers, Safety and Emergency Management Service Units for comment in relation to the proposed embayments within the Ruthin Way Road Reserve. No service units raised concerns with the proposed car bay provision within the road reserve of Ruthin Way.

 

Land Use permissibility

 

Having regards to the residential nature of the area, a Child Care Centre land use is a ‘D’ (Discretionary) use in the Residential zone in accordance with DPS 2. A discretionary use is one which may be considered, having due regard to the objectives of the zone; the matters to be considered under clause 6.8; and any requirements of applicable Local Planning Policies. The proposal is considered to meet these criteria as follows:

 

·        The proponent has provided evidence that the proposed land use will not significantly or detrimentally impact on traffic volumes within the surrounding road networks;

·        The proponent has provided evidence of compliance with the environmental Protection (Noise) Regulations 1997, and are unlikely to impact on the existing amenity of the area through increased noise;

·        The proposal has provided for an adequate number of bays through a combination of on-site and off-site parking, and have demonstrated compliance with Australian Standards;

·        The proposal does not contravene the objectives of the Residential zone as set out in DPS 2, and is considered to be a compatible urban support service; and

·           The proposal meets all requirements for Child Care Centres set out by LPP 2.3, including access, parking provision, traffic impact assessment, acoustic assessment, and overall amenity by retaining the residential appearance of the building within a residential area as required.

Having regard to the application’s compliance in these matters, as well as the relatively small scale of the development proposed, the City considers that discretion should be exercised, and has recommended approval of the application. 

Statutory Compliance

This application has been assessed in accordance with the City of Wanneroo’s District Planning Scheme No. 2, and the provisions of Local Planning Policy 2.3: Child Care Centres.

 

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “2     Society - Healthy, safe, vibrant and active communities.

2.1    Great Places and Quality Lifestyle - People from different cultures find Wanneroo an exciting place to live with quality facilities and services.

Issue

To consider the revised Alkimos-Eglinton and Yanchep-Two Rocks Development Contribution Plans (DCPs) following gazettal of Amendment No. 122 to District Planning Scheme No. 2 (DPS 2).

 

Background

Amendment No. 122 to DPS 2 proposed to introduce DCPs to collect funds for the provision of district level community facilities in the Alkimos-Eglinton and Yanchep-Two Rocks localities.  The Amendment was approved by the Minister for Planning on 19 August 2014 and subsequently published in the Government Gazette on 9 September 2014.

 

The provisions of the approved Amendment No. 122 state that the City has 90 days from the date of publication in the Government Gazette to adopt the DCP Report and Cost Apportionment Schedule that set out how the DCP costs will be shared between affected landowners and identifies the cost contribution amount that will apply under these DCPs. 

 

Council considered the draft DCP Report and Cost Apportionment Schedules for the Alkimos-Eglinton and Yanchep-Two Rocks DCPs at its Meeting on 9 December 2014 (PS04‑12/14) and resolved as follows:

 

“…3. NOTES that the review of estimated costs for the Alkimos-Eglinton Development Contribution Plan and Yanchep-Two Rocks Development Contribution Plan is proposing an increase in the cost contribution for those Plans pursuant to Clause 11.4 of Schedule 17 of District Planning Scheme No. 2; and

 

4.       Pursuant to Clause 11.6 of Schedule 17 of District Planning Scheme NOTIFIES affected landowners of the proposed cost increases and INVITES comment in writing from those landowners for a period of 42 days.”

 

In accordance with item 4 of Council’s resolution, comment was sought from affected landowners.  The final DCP Reports and Cost Apportionment Schedules, incorporating changes as a result of landowner comments where relevant, are now being presented to Council for final adoption prior to the revised DCP costs coming into effect.

Detail

A total of seven (7) submissions were received from Yanchep-Two Rocks landowners, each with a number of detailed comments.  A summary of these submissions and Administration’s response and recommended modifications is included at Attachment 1.

 

One (1) submission was received on behalf of all of the Alkimos-Eglinton Landowners. A summary of this submission and Administration’s response and recommended modifications is included at Attachment 2.

 

A summary of the key issues raised in the submissions is outlined below:

 

Yanchep-Two Rocks DCP

 

Compliance with Amendment No. 122

 

Clause 10.1 of Schedule 17 of DPS 2 requires that within 90 days of the DCP formally coming into effect (i.e. by 9 December 2014), the local government is to adopt a development contribution plan report and cost apportionment schedule.

 

One submission has questioned the validity of the DCP due to the DCP report and cost apportionment schedule originally being considered by Council on 9 December 2014 which was 91 days after the date that Amendment No. 122 was published in the government gazette.  The submission has also questioned the validity of any DCP costs adopted after this date.

 

Administration response

 

Administration sought comment in writing from all landowners on this matter prior to presenting the draft DCP report and cost apportionment schedule to Council for consideration in December 2014.  All of the landowners provided a statement in writing that they had no concerns with the proposed 91 day timeframe.

 

Notwithstanding this, Administration has sought legal advice on this matter which has confirmed that the City’s approach and the DCP framework around this issue are legally sound.

 

Accordingly, Administration has focussed on working with the landowners to resolve the other outstanding issues.

 

Dwelling Yield Forecast

 

Submissions commented that the i.d. forecast dwelling projection used in the most recent review of DCP costs are inaccurate and too conservative.  They identified numerous errors and inconsistencies in relation to lot creation, project commencement dates and lot yields for specific developments and commented that the i.d. projections do not accurately reflect the current development intentions of the major projects in the DCP area.

 

Administration Response

 

In response to this issue the Yanchep Two Rocks landowner group produced a lot creation estimate for each of their projects based on their current development plans.  These are considered by Administration to be a reasonable reflection of development plans in the 10 year life of the DCP.  The projections are slightly higher than those included in the Yanchep Two Rocks District Structure Plan, which were originally used by Administration to calculate cost contributions, but are more up to date. As a result Administration is recommending that the dwelling projections prepared by the landowner group by accepted as the basis for determining cost contributions. 

 

Any difference between projected and actual dwelling numbers will be picked up as part of the annual review of DCP costs, which provides a mechanism to address any discrepancy between the projected dwelling yield and on-ground development.  Through this process the cost contribution can be amended accordingly to reflect actual dwelling creation rates.

 

 

 

Cost and Scope of Infrastructure Items

 

Submissions questioned the scope and cost of the facilities identified in the Yanchep Two Rocks DCP.

 

Administration Response

 

Administration has met with the landowners to review the scope and cost of each of the items in the DCP and the landowners are now satisfied with the detail provided.  A summary of this information is outlined below for each of the facilities included in the DCP:

 

·    Yanchep Active Open Space

 

Includes all works associated with the planning, design and construction of the District Open Space as per the Council endorsed concept plan. 

 

excludes any costs or works associated with the extension of Marmion Avenue to provide access to the site.

 

·    Yanchep Surf Life Saving Club

 

Includes all works associated with the planning, design, and construction of the Surf Life Saving Club building as per Council endorsed concept plan.  The current facility scope is generally consistent with the scope of what was originally agreed with landowners, noting that there have been some changes to room floor areas and building components as a result of the concept design process.

 

Excludes all works associated with the Brazier Road realignment, including roundabout and retaining wall costs.

 

·    Coastal Node Facilities

 

Includes all works associated with the planning, design and construction of district coastal facilities at Capricorn Coastal Node.

 

Valuation of Land for Yanchep Active Open Space (YAOS)

 

Submissions considered the adopted land value for the YAOS land parcel to be inflated and not reflective of land values in the Yanchep area. It was requested that the City request a specific valuation of the identified 12 hectare parcel of land where the YAOS is proposed in order to better reflect accurate land values.

 

Administration Response

 

The initial land valuation was based on an average en globo land value for the Yanchep Two Rocks DCP area ($100/m2).  When applied to the YAOS site it resulted in a valuation of $12,931,434.

 

Administration sought a revised land valuation specifically for the land parcel associated with the Yanchep Active Open Space project.  The site specific valuation totalled $8,320,000 which is significantly less than the estimated value using the average square metre rate for Yanchep Two Rocks determined in the previous valuation.

 

Comment on the revised valuation report was sought from the landowner group and one concern was raised in relation to the methodology used in the valuation.  The valuation methodology is based on the “highest and best use”, which would be as a full development site.  A fair market value has been placed on this site that disregards its future use as public open space (while still including other site specific limitations), because if the site was not to be purchased for public open space it would have the full capability of being used as a development site. 

 

The landowner questioned this aspect of the methodology.  Administration has reviewed the valuation methodology and can confirm that it is consistent with standard land valuation methodology and the requirements of DPS 2, which defines the value of the land as the fair market value assuming the highest and best use, taking into account all its potential and limitations.  Accordingly, no further revision of the land valuation is considered necessary at this time, noting that there will need to be subsequent land valuations undertaken as part of the annual review process and at the time of land acquisition.

 

Council contribution on behalf of existing community in Yanchep-Two Rocks

 

Submissions contended that in order for the DCP to be equitable and compliant with the principles embedded in State Planning Policy 3.6: Development Contributions for Infrastructure (SPP 3.6), the demand for facilities generated by the existing community in Yanchep and Two Rocks should be accounted for in the DCP.  Developers should only be required to contribute towards the cost of the facilities based on the proportion of demand generated by their developments.

 

Administration Response

 

The current approach to calculating cost contributions set out in the DCP is that 100% of the cost is to be met by new growth.  This approach was negotiated and agreed with landowners during the preparation of the DCP framework for Amendment No. 122 to DPS 2 on the basis that the demand for the district level community facilities was generated by new dwelling growth in the DCP area.

 

Administration has reviewed the provisions of DPS 2 and SPP 3.6 on this matter and sought legal advice on the interpretation of the relevant provisions in DPS 2 relating to the Yanchep Two Rocks DCP.  The legal advice has confirmed that the costs should be apportioned between the existing population in Yanchep and Two Rocks and the projected growth in the DCP area.

 

There are currently 3,630 dwellings in Yanchep-Two Rocks of which 3,089 existed prior to 2011, and 541 have already made an interim contribution and since been developed.  In the 10 year life of the Yanchep-Two Rocks DCP an additional 10,603 dwellings are projected to be created.  Residents of both the existing and new dwellings may use the facilities and should therefore be expected to contribute to their cost.  This approach is set out in SPP 3.6 which states that the DCP should include, “a methodology for determining the proportion of costs of community infrastructure to be attributed to growth and the proportion to be attributed to existing areas.”

 

Based on the figures above, this would result in a Council contribution of approximately 15.9% of the total facility cost ($4,519,973).  Grants, interest, and development contributions already collected make up approximately 9.6%, and the remaining 74.5% plus administrative costs, would be met by new growth ($21,952,854).

 


 

 

It should be noted that these figures are an estimate, and that Council’s contribution may be reduced over the life of the DCP depending on the final cost of facilities, number of dwellings created and by actively pursuing and confirming grant contributions towards the cost of the community facilities.

 

Consultation

 

Submissions requested that the City continue to work collaboratively with the landowner group to progress the implementation of the DCP following finalisation of the DCP costs.  It was suggested that this be achieved through the establishment of a management committee for the ongoing implementation and management of the Yanchep-Two Rocks DCP.

 

Administration Response

 

Administration is supportive of a collaborative approach to the implementation of the DCP, given the benefits that have been demonstrated through a similar process in preparing and finalising the DCP, however, this issue does not impact on Council’s consideration of the final DCP costs.

 

This was raised in previous discussions with landowners during the preparation of Amendment No. 122.  It should be noted that Council endorsed the inclusion of a clause in the Amendment No. 122 text stating that the City may establish a consultative committee for the purpose making recommendations to Council in respect to timing, funding and arrangements for works undertaken in accordance with Development Contribution Plans.   This text was removed from the amending text by the Minister for Planning in his final determination of the Amendment.

 

Notwithstanding this, it is proposed that Council consider establishing an Advisory Committee of Council for each of the DCPs to address matters relating to the planning and construction of the DCP facilities, rates of development, reviews of estimated costs, and any other matter relating to the implementation of the DCP.  These committees should meet a minimum of three times per year in order to feed into the annual DCP review process.

 

Social and Economic Impact

 

One submission noted that they consider the City to be using the DCP to resolve short to medium term funding mismatches without any negative consequences.  They noted that developer cost contributions are ultimately passed on to the homebuyer and that this has the direct effect of increasing the cost of housing in the DCP area, and shifting the risk of borrowing from the City to new homeowners.

 

Administration Response

 

As a result of this submission, Administration has reviewed the funding models for the DCP facilities in the City’s long term financial plan to ensure that they are consistent with the DCP, and that development contributions are not being used inappropriately. As a result of this review, some minor changes to the funding models were made in the draft Long Term Financial Plan to ensure alignment with the DCP.  It should be noted that the 2015/16 Capital Works Budget and Long Term Financial Plan will ultimately need to reflect the final funding model adopted by Council in the Yanchep Two Rocks DCP Report and Cost Apportionment Schedule.

 

Administration is aware of the impact of development contributions on housing affordability and has worked with landowners to keep the cost contribution to a minimum amount that will deliver the facilities for the local community.

 

Strategic Financial Management

 

One submission also questioned the City’s use of the DCP to fund infrastructure projects when it has a significant capacity to undertake and repay debt and commented that debt funding has not been adequately considered as an alternative to establishing a DCP.

 

Administration Response

 

This issue is one that that should have been raised when the DCP was first being prepared or during public advertising of Amendment No. 122.  As the Yanchep-Two Rocks DCP has been adopted by Council, approved by the Minister for Planning and published in the government gazette, it is not an issue that can reasonably be considered by Council in finalising the DCP costs.  There are a number of other community facilities that will be required in future within the Yanchep-Two Rocks area and the City will need to consider a range of funding options when these facilities are required.  At this time, development contributions are still considered to be the best option for funding district level infrastructure in growth areas.

 

Alkimos-Eglinton DCP

 

Landowners support proposed DCP costs.

 

Landowners confirmed their support of the proposed DCP details and costs as presented to Council on 9 December 2014.

 

Administration Response

 

The landowner support of the proposed DCP cost is noted.  Accordingly, no changes to the DCP details are proposed in response to this comment.

 

Treatment of shortfall in contributions

 

Alkimos-Eglinton landowners also reiterated their position in relation to the shortfall in contributions that has resulted from the interim contributions made to date being based on a 'per lot' rate less than what the ultimate contribution rate is proposed to be.

 

Landowners are of the view that the difference between the interim rate and the actual DCP rate should not be met by the balance of developable land (i.e. through the DCP) but should be made up by some other means and funded from other sources (such as grant funds, interest earnings, or municipal funds).

 

Administration Response

 

Administration has worked proactively with the Alkimos-Eglinton landowners to try to find an agreeable solution to this issue during the consultation period. 

 

To support the landowners' position on the treatment of the shortfall, they provided Administration with a detailed contribution and cashflow projection illustrating the potential interest earnings for the life of the DCP.  This model demonstrated that the shortfall could be paid back by 2020, with interest earnings beyond this time being used to offset the DCP costs that would apply.

 

To test the approach proposed by the Alkimos Eglinton landowners, Administration ran a number of development scenarios within the projection model provided, to ascertain the level of risk associated with such an approach. 

 

As a result, Administration is comfortable that, even assuming more conservative development rates than those anticipated by the landowner group, there will still be sufficient interest generated through the life of the DCP to ensure contingency funds in the DCP reserve account.

 

Administration is therefore recommending that Council accept the Alkimos-Eglinton landowners' proposal to deduct the contribution shortfall from the total cost of the DCP and for this shortfall to be made up through interest earnings from collected contributions.

 

The shortfall is estimated to be $2.448 million, which is the difference between the value of actual contributions collected at the interim rate of $2,000 and $3,750 per lot and what the value would have been if those lots had contributed at the estimated final rate of $3,845 / lot (noting that a per hectare rate applies in Alkimos Eglinton).

Consultation

Administration met with Yanchep-Two Rocks landowners before and after the December 2014 Council Meeting, on 11 December and 20 December 2014 to discuss the outcomes of the cost review for the Yanchep Two Rocks DCP and to identify any issues or concerns with the proposed cost increase.  Administration also met with the Alkimos-Eglinton landowners on 24 November 2015 and 16 December 2015.

 

Affected landowners were notified of the proposed cost increases in writing on 17 December 2014 and invited to provide comment.  The formal consultation period commenced on 18 December 2014 and ran for a period of 42 days, with a one week extension granted following a request from YBJV.  The total consultation period ran for a period of 49 days concluding on 4 February 2015.

 

Administration subsequently met with the Yanchep-Two Rocks landowner group on 13 February 2015 and 19 March 2015 to discuss the comments made in submissions and Administration’s proposed response to those comments.

Comment

Outlined below is a summary of the indicative DCP details for Alkimos-Eglinton and Yanchep-Two Rocks DCPs compared to when Council considered the cost review in December 2014 and when it adopted Amendment No. 122 in June 2013.  It should be noted that these figures are an estimate, and the actual details will be constantly monitored, confirmed and reconciled over the life of the DCP.

Administration has addressed all of the issues raised during the public consultation period in consultation with affected landowners.  As a result of Administration’s recommended response to these issues, the cost contribution amount is proposed to decrease to $2,070 per dwelling, which is less than the amount originally proposed when Amendment No. 122 was adopted by Council in 2013, and less than the interim cost contribution amount of $2,195 set out in Local Planning Policy 3.3: Northern Coastal Growth Corridor Development Contributions (LPP 3.3).

 

This reduction in cost is due to the following:

 

·        The estimated number dwellings to be created during the 10 year life the DCP increasing from 4,282 to 10,603 (a difference of 6,321 dwellings) as a result of Administration accepting the landowner dwelling projections;

 

·        A reduction in facility costs as a result of Administration revising the land valuation estimate for the Yanchep Active Open Space; and

 

·        The apportionment of costs between existing development and new growth.  This results in a financial contribution of approximately $4.5 million from Council over the 10 year life of the DCP on behalf of the existing community in Yanchep and Two Rocks.

 

Administration costs have also been reviewed and updated following a request from the landowner group and more up to date figures included for the value of collected contributions and interest earnings. 

 

Administration costs are the costs that the City incurs in managing the DCPs, in addition to the specific costs associated with the planning and construction of the facilities.  They may include external costs such as bank charges, audit fees, legal expenses, land valuation and quantity surveyor fees and internal costs such as the recovery of a proportion of salary and on-costs associated with officer time spent administering the DCP.  External administration costs have been estimated based on costs incurred to date for the Alkimos-Eglinton and Yanchep-Two Rocks DCPs as well as East Wanneroo cells with a similar level of development activity.  Internal costs have been estimated by calculating the sum of the cost associated with all officer time spent administering DCPs and apportioning this cost to each of the DCPs administered by the City based on the annual activity in that cell.

 

Total administration costs are estimated for the life of the DCP in order to determine the cost contribution amount, and then reconciled as part of the annual review process such that only actual costs, once they have been incurred, are used to determine the cost contribution amount.  The increase in administrative costs from $623,000 to $755,000 is due to the inclusion of salary and on-costs and allowances for consultant costs and contract expenses not previously allowed for.

 

The revised DCP costs are considered to fully address all of the outstanding issues raised by the landowner group.  The resultant cost contribution amount is appropriate, affordable and fully consistent with the requirements of DPS 2 and SPP 3.6.

 

Accordingly, Administration has prepared a revised DCP Report for the Yanchep-Two Rocks DCP incorporating the recommended changes as a result of landowner submissions (refer Attachment 3) for Council’s consideration.

As the Alkimos-Eglinton landowner group were supportive of the DCP details as presented to Council on 9 December, no changes have been made with the exception of the following:

 

·        The total cost of facilities has been reduced by the value of the shortfall in contributions;

 

The reduction in the facility cost by $2.448 million to reflect the shortfall in contributions is considered appropriate given that interest earnings can be used with minimal risk to make up this shortfall and that interest earnings are required to be applied in the development contribution area in which they are generated in accordance with clause 16.2 of Schedule 17 of DPS 2.  Under this proposal, instead of interest earnings being used to offset the value of cost contributions as it is generated, it would be used to make up the difference in the value of interim contributions made under LPP 3.3.  Once the cumulative value of interest earned has equalled the value of the shortfall, it can then be factored into the calculation of cost contributions as would normally be the case.

 

·        Administrative cost estimates have been reviewed and updated to include more detail on their makeup.

 

The increase in administrative costs is due to the inclusion of salary and on-costs and allowances for consultant costs and contract expenses not previously allowed for.  These additional administration costs were identified in the review requested by Yanchep Two Rocks landowners but have been discussed with the Alkimos Eglinton landowner representative and are considered to be appropriate.

 

The result of these recommended changes is that the proposed cost contribution rate decreases from $114,221/ha to $111,107/ha.

 

Administration has prepared a revised DCP Report for the Alkimos Eglinton DCP incorporating the recommended changes as a result of landowner submissions (refer Attachment 4) for Council’s consideration.

 

Relationship between Yanchep-Two Rocks and Alkimos Eglinton DCPs

 

Although both the Alkimos Eglinton and Yanchep Two Rocks DCPs were incorporated into DPS 2 as part of Amendment No. 122, they are now independent DCPs with different facilities, timeframes and cost calculation methodologies.  As a result it is now very difficult to compare the two schemes and it is recommended that Council consider each DCP for adoption independently.

 

Alkimos-Eglinton landowners have expressed a strong desire for the DCP to commence operation as soon as possible and they are concerned that the adoption of the Alkimos Eglinton DCP may be held up due to unresolved issues with the Yanchep Two Rocks DCP.

Statutory Compliance

Administration has made recommendations in response to landowner submissions consistent with the requirements of DPS 2 and the provisions of SPP 3.6.

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “2     Society - Healthy, safe, vibrant and active communities.

2.1    Great Places and Quality Lifestyle - People from different cultures find Wanneroo an exciting place to live with quality facilities and services.

Risk Management Considerations

There is some risk associated with the Yanchep-Two Rocks and Alkimos-Eglinton DCPs in relation to the unpredictability of expenses and revenue associated with their implementation.  Development contribution schemes have been identified as a high corporate risk that requires ongoing management.

 

The risk associated with the unpredictable nature of income and expenses in Development Contribution Schemes can be managed, and there are provisions in the DCPs for annual reviews to ensure that the cost contribution accurately reflects the cost of development and that the timing of facility construction reflects the rate of development being experienced within the DCP area.

 

The main risk associated with Council adopting costs to apply through the DCP is that they will not be based on accurate assumptions.  This risk is managed through annual reviews of estimated costs and development rates.

 

There are also external risks associated with the level of acceptance of the DCP costs within the landowner group.  Should landowners disagree with Council’s position on any aspect of the DCP costs, there are provisions in DPS 2 that provide for any dispute between an owner and the local government in connection with the requirement to make a cost contribution to be resolved through a formal arbitration process.  There is also opportunity to provide input into DCP costs as part of the annual review process if the costs are proposed to increase as an outcome of those reviews.

Policy Implications

Local Planning Policy 3.3: Northern Coastal Growth Corridor Development Contributions (LPP 3.3) sets out an arrangement negotiated with developers for interim contributions to be made towards the cost of community facilities in the absence of a formal gazetted DCP.  The application of LPP 3.3 ensured that development activity could continue in the period when Amendment No. 122 was being finalised without contributions being missed from those landowners developing during this time.

 

Should Council adopt the final costs to apply through the DCP, the provisions of LPP 3.3 would no longer apply and the Policy would become obsolete.  It is therefore recommended that Council formally rescind LPP 3.3 as part of its adoption of the final DCP costs.

Financial Implications

The review of the Alkimos-Eglinton and Yanchep-Two Rocks DCP Reports following the gazettal of Amendment No. 122 and landowner consultation period has resulted in the following:

 

·        Alkimos-Eglinton DCP –  the delivery of 11 facilities with an estimated cost of $73.5 million (revised from $75.9 million to reflect the shortfall in contributions and including the revised administration costs), resulting in a cost contribution of $111,107 per hectare (revised from $114,221 per hectare); and

 

·        Yanchep-Two Rocks DCP - the delivery of 3 facilities with the estimated cost of $28.4 million (revised from $29.6 million), resulting in a cost contribution of $2,070 per dwelling (revised from $7,297 per dwelling).

 

In relation to the proposed contribution from Council towards the cost of community facilities in the Yanchep Two Rocks DCP, funds will need to be listed in the relevant years of the City’s Long Term Financial Plan as a municipal fund contribution to reflect the proportion of demand for the facilities generated by the existing community in Yanchep and Two Rocks.

Issue

To consider eight applications for an exemption under section 26(3) of the Dog Act 1976 to keep more than two dogs.

 

Background

Clause 14 of the City of Wanneroo Animals Local Law 1999 (Amendment 2008 GG 508) stipulates:

 

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

 

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

 

b)      6 dogs over the age of 3 months and the young of those dogs under that age if the premises are situated on a lot having an area of 4 hectares or more,

 

unless the premises are licensed as an approved kennel establishment or have been granted exemption pursuant to section 26(3) of the Dog Act and have planning approval under the town planning scheme.”

Detail

Eight applications have been made under the Dog Act 1976 and are submitted for consideration. Each application has been assessed against the City's Application to Keep More than Two Dogs Guidelines and Scoresheet.

 

As part of the assessment process, Rangers have inspected all of the properties to ensure means exist on the premises at which the dogs will ordinarily be kept for effectively confining the dogs within the premises.

Consultation

Where applications have been received by the City to keep more than two dogs, residents immediately adjoining the applicant’s property in question are consulted by letter to ascertain if they have any objections.

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: 18 Gazelle Place, Marangaroo

 

Description of Dogs:

1.       Male tan Kelpie/Red Heeler X - sterilised

2.       Male cream Australian Terrier - unsterilised

Property Zoning / Size:

Residential / 700m2

Objections:

Two (two neighbours consulted)

 

This application was previously submitted at the Council meeting held on 9 December 2014 and was deferred to allow the applicant time to make the property compliant in regard to the state and smell of the backyard and adequate enough to confine the dogs.

 

The applicants are seeking permission from the City to keep three dogs at 18 Gazelle Place, Marangaroo. The applicants would like to keep three dogs at the property as they have had three dogs registered previously with the City and recently had to euthanize their older dog.

 

A Ranger has inspected the property and confirmed it is adequate for the confinement and exercise of the dogs as per Clause 13 of the City of Wanneroo Animals Local Law 1999.  The dogs are kept in a medium sized yard and sleep indoors and outdoors at night.

 

Upon consultation with neighbouring properties two objections were received regarding barking and yapping made by the dogs on the property and also smell and state of the backyard. The objection of smell and state of the backyard was substantiated as the City has history or records to support the claim. The property has been inspected a second time and it has been ascertained that the applicant has cleaned up sufficiently enough to eradicate the smell.

 

A check of the City's records reveal that prior to this application, two complaints had been lodged with regard to the number of dogs at this property. The applicant subsequently submitted the application soon after the complaint. The complainant was one of the neighbours that objected to this application. Complaints from the same neighbour that objected have also been received regarding dogs wandering from the property and the state of the backyard, these complaints have been substantiated. In addition, four complaints had been lodged from the same complainant with regard to alleged barking dogs; none of these complaints have been substantiated.

 

The dogs at the property have previously received three cautions for dog related offences, however these were issued in 2013 and there have been none issued recently.

However, the same complainant has since lodged another barking dog complaint against this property that is still being investigated, however the diary entries are not currently consistent with nuisance barking. The complainant indicated on the objection form that they had no objection to the applicant keeping a third dog as long as the barking was kept at an acceptable level. As a condition of approval from Council is for any barking to be kept to a minimum, Administration is happy for Council to recommend this application.

 

It is recommended that an exemption under section 26(3) of the Dog Act 1976 be granted.

Statutory Compliance

The exemptions sought to Council’s Animals Local Law 1999 are permissible under Section 26(3) of the Dog Act 1976.

Property

CB02-04/15       Proposed Lease to Quinns Mindarie Surf Life Saving Club (Inc.) - portion of Lot 211, Quinns Road, Mindarie

File Ref:                                              5316 – 14/148290

Responsible Officer:                           A/Director City Businesses

Issue

To consider entering into a new lease with the Quinns Mindarie Surf Life Saving Club (Inc.) (QMSLSC) over a portion of Lot 211 (2) Quinns Road, Mindarie for a term of five (5) years.

 

Background

The QMSLSC currently leases a portion of Lot 211, (2) Quinns Road, Mindarie being the whole of the land comprised in Certificate of Title Volume 485 Folio 181A.

 

Lot 211 is owned freehold by the City and is currently zoned as "Parks & Recreation" under the Metropolitan Region Scheme and "Regional Parks & Recreation" in the City of Wanneroo District Planning Scheme No.2.

 

The QMSLSC was founded in 1982. It is a community service based institution that provides a service that includes beach patrols, surf life saving rescue, training and competition and the administration of first aid.

 

The QMSLSC has been in occupation of its existing dedicated purpose built surf life saving clubroom under a lease arrangement with the City since 1 January 2005 (Ordinary Council Meeting of 12 October 2004, CS03-10/04).  The initial five (5) year lease term expired 31 December 2009 with the QMSLSC exercising the five (5) year lease option that commenced 1 January 2010 in writing. The existing lease expired 31 December 2014 and is currently held over on the same terms and conditions contained within the expired lease on a week to week tenancy with one week's notice by either party to the other at any time. As per the terms of the held over lease, the QMSLSC continues to be responsible for cleaning, repairs, maintenance, rates and taxes and all outgoings associated with the leased facility. The City continues to be responsible for repairs of a structural nature and for acts of vandalism and graffiti on the exterior of the building.

 

The leased building opened in 2005 and was specifically designed to meet the needs of the QMSLSC at that time. It incorporates a gym, kitchen, office, first aid room; boat storage area; toilets and change rooms and a mezzanine area (storage area).

 

Due to the rapid expansion in the City's northern suburbs, the QMSLSC has experienced a large influx of new members and it now has a membership base of over 500 members.

 

The building was designed as the first part of a staged development, with future works to be considered as part of broader community needs. The current building was designed to allow for a significant second storey addition to be constructed in order to create a multi-use community facility.

 

"Proposed Future Second Storey"

 

The proposed second storey addition and a watch tower is currently listed in the City's 10-year Capital Works Budget and allocated over the following financial years:

 

YEAR

PROJECT

TOTAL COST

2016/17

Detailed Design

$276,000

2017/18

Construction

$1,900,000

2018/19

Construction

$1,368,000

TOTAL:

 

$3,544,000

                                     

Note that the provision of a watch tower forms part of the stage 2 construction process and has not been costed as a stand-alone structure within the initial concept development.

 

Consultation on the proposed second storey will occur with the QMSLSC and other proposed user groups as part of the detailed design process which will be based on the consultation and concept development undertaken as a part of the Needs and Feasibility Study, endorsed by Council at its Ordinary Council Meeting of 2 April 2013 (CD01-04/13).

 

The proposed second storey addition is not intended to be leased. It is proposed that future users of the addition, including the QMSLSC will operate on a casual hire basis only, under the terms of the City's Facility Hire & Use Policy.

 

The existing held over and proposed new lease incorporate a non-exclusive licence area that comprises of a paved area directly in front of the leased buildings roller doors that is able to be utilised by the QMSLSC for the permitted purpose of boat access and the washing down of boats (Attachment 1 refers).

Consultation

The essential terms of the proposed new lease have been prepared in consultation with the QMSLSC. QMSLSC indicated on 6 March 2015 that they are satisfied with the proposed lease terms and will sign the lease in its final form.

 

Even though the “Not for Profit” proposed lease is on City freehold land, Administration supports the proposed five (5) year lease tenure.

 

Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) approval to the proposed new lease under Section 136 of the Planning and Development Act 2005 is not required as the proposed term is less than twenty (20) years.

Comment

Under the City’s existing Tenancy Policy, the QMSLSC is categorised as a “Not for Profit” entity. Ordinarily, the terms of the lease should be negotiated at no cost to the City. However, due to the coastal location of the QMSLSC building, it is subject to coastal elements and weather extremes not usually associated with other “Not for Profit” entity buildings which has resulted in degradation to the building’s exterior paintwork. In this instance, Administration, subject to Council approval has agreed to the QMSLSC request for the City to assume responsibility for all exterior paintwork to the building. Maintenance of external paintwork would also incur the cost of regular wash downs of external surfaces.

 

As per the terms of the existing held over lease, the City has agreed to make good any breakage or damage to the exterior of the building not attributed to the QMSLSC employees, agents and contractors in the proposed new lease. Incidents of graffiti or malicious vandalism will be rectified by the City at its cost. This is not consistent with the City’s Tenancy Policy but is on the same basis as other leases negotiated for “Not for Profit” entities that currently lease the Wanneroo Showgrounds Clubrooms and the Wanneroo Agricultural Poultry Shed. No previous incidents of vandalism or graffiti have been recorded at the QMSLSC site and therefore it is considered a low risk to the City.

 

The QMSLSC has been a stable tenant at the existing leased premises since 2005 and the proposed new lease will allow the QMSLSC to continue its existing tenancy arrangement.

 

The QMSLSC falls under the umbrella of Surf Life Saving Western Australia (Inc.) (SLSWA), an organisation that strives to save and protect lives on Australian beaches, offers training to the public and supports the development of education, technology, communications and operations to reduce coastal drowning.

 

The QMSLSC provides an essential community service in its provision of surf life saving and associated services. It works closely with the City and SLSWA to ensure that the local community is aware of beach and ocean hazards through effective media coverage, patrolling, training and on site signage.

 

In view of the services provided by the QMSLSC in conjunction with the significant increase in population within the northern coastal area, Administration supports the proposed new lease of the existing leased premises to the QMSLSC.

 

A new lease will clarify both the City's and the QMSLSC responsibilities to maintain the building to the required standard. It will also ensure that the City and the local community continue to receive the professional and valuable service currently provided by the QMSLSC.

Statutory Compliance

Whilst the proposed lease is for premises located on City freehold land, the City does not have to comply with the requirements of Section 136 of the Planning and Development Act 2005 as the lease term does not exceed 20 years and therefore does not require the approval of the WAPC.

 

The proposed lease is considered an exempt disposition under Regulation 30(2)(b) of the Local Government (Functions and General) Regulations 1996, which states:

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

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

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

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

 

The main objectives of the QMSLSC as per its constitution are to:

 

·        assist or rescue any persons who may be in danger or drowning, and to ensure the most effective methods of attaining the preservation of life;

·        resuscitate and revive any persons who may be apparently drowned and to ensure the most efficient and effective methods for the preservation of life;

·        render first aid and other assistance to any persons who may be injured by accident or otherwise;

·        promote demonstrations and to arrange classes of instruction for members in the knowledge of the principles of surf life saving; and

·        maintain efficient patrolling of the beach in accordance with the clubs area of operation.

 

The QMSLSC is an educational and charitable entity and therefore an exempt disposition under Regulation 30(2) (b) of the Local Government (Functions and General) Regulations 1996.

 

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “2     Society - Healthy, safe, vibrant and active communities.

2.2    Healthy and Active People - We get active in our local area and we have many opportunities to experience a healthy lifestyle.

 

Risk Management Considerations

Nil

Policy Implications

Administration has agreed to assume external painting responsibilities, make good any vandalism or graffiti damage to the exterior of the building and pay the annual building insurance premium. This is not consistent with the City's Tenancy Policy.

Administration has negotiated the remainder of the proposed lease in accordance with the City’s Tenancy Policy.

Financial Implications

In lieu of the City's annual peppercorn rent, the QMSLSC will be responsible for all costs for cleaning, utility outgoings, public liability/plate glass insurances, rates and taxes, repairs and maintenance (excluding the points outlined below), operational compliance matters and all other costs associated with the leased premises. Currently this club is exempt from paying Council rates as they are a Not for Profit entity.

 

The City will pay the QMSLSC building insurance premium. The building is currently insured with the City’s building insurance providers, LGIS. The annual premium for financial year 2014/2015 for the subject building is $1,782.84 (plus GST)

 

The City will meet the following maintenance obligation costs for the proposed term of the lease:

 

·    graffiti or malicious vandalism for the site is estimated at $750 per annum. There are no previous recorded incidents for this site;

 

·    maintenance of external paintwork at the leased site would require the external surfaces of the leased premises to be regularly washed down by pressure spray or similar. The wash down of the external surfaces is estimated to cost $10,000 per annum;

 

·    external painting of the leased premises would be a recurrent cost as painting of City assets is completed on a rotational basis. It is estimated that painting costs would be $30,000, programmed every 3 years or as deemed required by inspection.

CB03-04/15       Proposed Lease of 34 Timely Hostess Mews, Mariginiup to Lesley Williams

File Ref:                                              19914 – 15/92487

Responsible Officer:                           A/Director City Businesses

Disclosure of Interest:                         Nil

Issue

To consider a lease over 34 Timely Hostess Mews, Mariginiup to Lesley Eve Williams for the keeping and exercising of two horses and associated ancillary equipment for personal use.

 

Background

The City owns in freehold the property at 34 Timely Hostess Mews, Mariginiup (“Land”), being Lot 124 on Diagram 94901 and comprised in Certificate of Title Volume 2134 Folio 932.

 

The City purchased the Land in 1998 with the intention, in the long term, of subdividing it into three lots.  Since its purchase, the Land has been set aside for equestrian and open space purposes and has not been developed by the City.

 

The Land is an area of approximately 7 hectares, has generally a flat topography, with a line of paperbark trees and shrubs predominantly situated adjacent to and on the inside of the eastern perimeter fence line (Attachment 1 refers).  There are also sporadic pockets of trees and bush adjacent to and inside the northern and southern perimeter fence.  Access to the Land is via a chain gate at the north eastern corner.

 

The Land has no services connected to it.  There is, however, electrical power that runs past the Land in the form of overhead power lines.  There is no mains water in the vicinity of the Land.

 

Administration received an enquiry from Lesley Eve Williams, who owns a residential property (554 (Lot 5) Neaves Road, Mariginiup) which adjoins the Land.  Ms Williams proposed to lease the Land for the purpose of keeping and training two horses, and storing associated items, for personal use.  Ms Williams has advised the City that she would be interested to lease the Land whilst she finds a more permanent solution to keep her two horses.

Detail

The City’s records suggest the City has never used the Land.  Administration will be investigating the Land’s development potential for maximum financial return, which will likely involve a scheme amendment that could take up to two years.  In the interim, and while the investigation is ongoing, the City has no plans for the Land in the short to medium term future.

 

In December 2014, Administration sought a licenced valuation to determine a rent for the Land.

 

Following negotiations with Ms Williams, a proposed new lease has been negotiated with the following essential terms being offered:

 

 

 

 

Lessee

Lesley Eve Williams

Premises

34 Timeley Hostess Mews, Mariginiup (the whole of the land comprised in Certificate of Title Volume 2134/Folio 932)

Proposed Use

Keep and train two horses for personal use and store associated items.

Lease Term

Two (2) years with no options.

Commencement Date

Four (4) weeks following the date of execution of the lease.

Commencing Rent

$7,300* per annum (plus GST) payable monthly in advance.

Council Rates

Payable by the Lessee as assessed.  The amount will not be known until the executed lease is sent to the Valuer General’s Office for assessment.  The City’s Rates section has estimated the Council Rates at $9,200.00 plus Emergency Services Levy of $330.00 based on the unimproved value of the Land (subject to formal determination by the Valuer General’s Office).

Outgoings

Nil as there are no services connected to the Land.

Fit out

The tenant is proposing to install fencing on the Land to contain the horses and will be required to remove any such installation and any other items that are brought onto the Land by the tenant, whether fixed or otherwise.

Other

Should the Lessee sell her own property, the lease will be considered terminated.

Emergency Services Levy

Lessee responsibility.

Maintenance & Cleaning

The Lessee will be responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of the Land including firebreaks.

Insurance

Lessee responsibility.

 

*To comply with the requirements of the Local Government Act 1995, a market rental valuation was obtained in December 2014 revealing a rental of $7,300 per annum plus GST.

Consultation

The essential terms of the proposed lease have been prepared in consultation with the tenant.

 

It is proposed that, subject to Council approval to the lease, formal land lease documentation will be prepared by one of the City's external solicitors.

Comment

Should Council agree to the lease, given that the proposed lease is not an ‘exempt disposition’, it will be necessary to advertise the disposition in a local paper inviting public submissions.  Subject to no submissions being received from the advertising process, formal consent to the lease as outlined in this report is sought from Council.

 


 

 

Should any submissions be received, the lease will not be executed until a further report is presented to Council for consideration.

 

Administration supports the proposed new lease of the Land to Ms Williams as outlined in this report.

Statutory Compliance

The public notice advertisement will fully comply with the requirements of Section 3.58 of the Local Government Act 1995 with respect to the proposed disposition.

 

As the Land is freehold, there is no requirement for the City to refer the lease to the Minister for Lands.

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “3     Economy - Progressive, connected communities that enable economic growth and employment.

3.2    Growing Business - Our community is a preferred place for business to locate and grow.

Risk Management Considerations

Nil

Policy Implications

The proposed lease has been negotiated in accordance with the 'commercial' guidelines as outlined in the City's Tenancy Policy.

Financial Implications

The proposed lease includes maintenance costs and will generate an annual income stream of $7,300 (plus GST).

CB04-04/15       Proposed commercial lease to Raymond Parker and Lloyd Parker over a portion of Lot 511, Clarkson Library, Ocean Keys Bvd, Clarkson (Tenancy 4)

File Ref:                                              4170 – 15/91891

Responsible Officer:                           A/Director City Businesses

Issue

To consider entering into a commercial lease over a 83m2 portion of Reserve 47718, Lot 511, Clarkson Library, Ocean Keys Blvd, Clarkson (Tenancy 4) with Raymond Parker and Lloyd Parker for a term of five (5) years with a five (5) year option.

 

Background

The Clarkson Library complex was constructed in 2004 and is located on the northern side of Ocean Keys Blvd, Reserve 47718, Lot 511 on Deposited Plan 39299 being the whole of the land comprised in Certificate of Title Volume LR3134 Folio 540. The main "Ocean Keys Shopping Centre" complex is located to the south of the subject property.

 

Reserve 47718 is a category "C" reserve and vested in the City for the purpose of "Community Purposes" under a Management Order with power to lease for a term not exceeding 21 years, subject to the consent of the Minister for Lands.

 

The land is currently zoned as "Urban" under the Metropolitan Region Scheme and "Centre" in the City of Wanneroo District Planning Scheme No.2 and forms part of an Agreed Structure Plan. The current zoning permits a variety of retail and commercial uses.

 

Incorporated into the Clarkson Library Complex (Complex) are three commercial tenancy areas which have street frontage to Ebb Way, Clarkson.  Details of the existing mixed commercial cluster of tenancies that operate out of the Complex are as follows:

 

·    Tenancy 1 (Cartridge World - franchise outlet) is approximately 49m2 and is currently leased to L&C Perth Pty Ltd as Trustee for the Liao and Chen Family Trust for the permitted use of a "Retail outlet for sale of printer cartridges and associated products";

·    Tenancy 2 (The Salon) (is approximately 55.5m2 and is currently leased to Sharon Johnson and Joy Ann Smith trading under the business name, "The Salon @ Ocean Keys" for the permitted use of a "Hair Dressing and Beauty Salon"; and

·    Tenancy 4 (Attachment 1 refers) is approximately 83m2 and is currently vacant. It was previously leased as a Cafe.

There is no tenancy known as Tenancy 3 in the Complex. All three of the commercial tenancies operating out of the Complex have the non-exclusive right to use the Complex’s common areas within the Complex’s standard trading hours and other times as permitted under the terms of the individual leases.

 

The previous lease of Tenancy 4 to Carol Marshall expired 12 December 2014.

 


 

 

Council resolved at it Ordinary Council Meeting of 16 September 2014 (CB01-09/14) to:

“1.     APPROVES in principle, a commercial lease of a 83m2 portion (Tenancy 4) of Reserve 47718, Lot 511, Clarkson Library, Ocean Keys Boulevard, Clarkson (Attachment 1 refers) to Carol Marshall, for a term of three (3) years commencing 13 December 2014 with a three (3) year option subject to the requirements of the Commercial Tenancy (Retail Shops) Act 1985 and the Minister for Lands approval;

2.       AUTHORISES the publication of a local public notice of the intention to enter into the lease in accordance with Section 3.58 of the Local Government Act 1995;

3.       NOTES if any submissions are received a further report will be presented to Council; and

4.       In the event there are no submissions,

a)      NOTES the Chief Executive Officer under delegated authority will approve the lease; and

b)      AUTHORISES the affixing of the Common Seal of the City of Wanneroo to a lease between the City and Carol Marshall in accordance with the City's Execution of Documents Policy.”

Although Carol Marshall originally requested a new lease in writing on 27 July 2014, due to a change in her personal circumstances she subsequently wrote to the City on 27 September 2014 to decline the proposed new lease. Therefore Council Resolution CB01-09/14 of 16 September 2014 cannot be implemented and the recommendations in this report override the previous recommendations.

 

The Expressions of Interest (EOI) process for Tenancy 4 to seek a new tenant was a two stage process. In addition to the 83m2 area available for lease, applicants were invited to utilise the licence areas of the Complex (Attachment 2 refers) if required at an additional cost:

·    Indoor Library Dining Area: (18m2) – available during standard Complex hours only; and

 

·    Outdoor Alfresco Dining Area: (62m2) – not weather proof.

 

Stage 1 of the EOI process involved the City calling for submissions from interested parties. The City placed public notices in the North Coast Times and the Wanneroo Times on 3 February 2015 and also on the City’s website requesting submissions from parties wishing to lease vacant Tenancy 4. Eight submissions were received.

 

Stage 2 of the EOI process required the eight interested parties to submit a formal proposal to lease the facility.  The interested parties were sent an information package outlining the details of Tenancy 4 which included selection criteria from which formal submissions were assessed by Administration. Four formal submissions were subsequently received and assessed against the selection criteria outlined in the information package and a decision was made, subject to Council approval, to negotiate a lease with Raymond and Lloyd Parker (joint tenants) who propose to open a Café/Patisserie.

Detail

A proposed new lease has been negotiated with the joint tenants.

 

The joint tenant’s application, likewise with the other applications received, was assessed against the selection criteria.  In addition to assessing the submissions in this manner, Administration also looked at the submissions holistically. The joint tenant’s proposal to establish a Café/Patisserie:

 

 

·    fits well within the Complex and will not compete against the Complex’s pre-existing commercial tenancies;

 

·    benefits the Complex by encouraging Tenancy 4 patrons into the Clarkson Library;

 

·    was the only submission that intended to use the additional available licensed areas of the Complex which integrates the Café/Patisserie into the Clarkson Library and will result in the City receiving additional licence rent; and

 

·    fits with the intended purpose of Tenancy 4 which is already fit-out out as a dedicated Café with the majority of the required infrastructure already in place to operate the proposed new Café/Patisserie.

 

The proposed new lease comprises a total area of approximately 83m² (cafe/kitchen area: 77m2, storeroom: 6m2) known as Tenancy 4 together with a right of access to those parts of the Complex designated as common areas (Attachment 1 refers) which is essentially the service corridor and ablutions that all three commercial tenancies share. Historically, all three commercial tenancies have contributed to the upkeep of the common areas through their variable outgoings.

 

Under the terms of the City’s current Tenancy Policy approved by Council, the proposed joint tenants are categorised as a “commercial” entity, being a non-exempt disposition under the Local Government Act 1995. In accordance with the Tenancy Policy, annual rent is to be negotiated at market rate.

 

A market valuation was sought from a licensed valuer to establish the current annual rental of Tenancy 4 as per required legislation. A valuation report was provided to the City by the licenced valuer on 14 January 2015 and a rate of $340/m² per annum net for the 77m2 cafe/kitchen area and $200/m2 per annum net for the 6m2 storeroom was suggested inclusive of the right to use the common area facilities. This equates to $27,380 per annum based on a lettable area of 83m2. In addition, variable outgoings (less electricity were estimated to be approximately $3,250 per annum.

 

The licensed valuer concluded that the current market value of Tenancy 4 is $30,630 (plus GST) per annum semi-gross inclusive of variable outgoings (less electricity)

 

In addition, the Complex has two licence areas available for use by the proprietor of Tenancy 4 if deemed required. The licenced valuer valued these areas as:

·    Indoor Library Dining Area: 18m2 @ $125/m2 (plus GST) per annum = $2,250 (plus GST) per annum; and

·    Outdoor Alfresco Dining Area: 62m2 @ $100/m2 (plus GST) per annum = $6,200 (plus GST) per annum.

It is therefore proposed, subject to Council approval and the requirements of the Commercial Tenancy (Retail Shops) Agreements Act 1985 being satisfied, to enter into a “private treaty” semi gross lease arrangement with the proposed joint tenants.

Accordingly, the following essential terms for the proposed semi-gross lease have been agreed with the proposed joint tenants and are subject to Council and Minister for Lands approval:-

 

Leased Premises:

Exclusive use of Tenancy 4 being an area of 83m2 and use of the Complex’s common areas (Attachment 1 refers) to Raymond and Lloyd Parker trading as the “Brewed Awakening Café”.

Bond:

The Lessee will be required to submit a bond of $5,500 which will be held by the City for the full term of the lease in a non-interest bearing account.

Consultation

The essential terms of the proposed lease have been prepared in consultation with the proposed joint tenants.

 

It is proposed that, subject to Council approval to the lease, formal commercial lease documentation will be prepared by one of the City's external solicitors and will include the disclosure requirements of the Commercial Tenancy (Retail Shops) Agreements Act 1995.

Section 18 of the Land Administration Act 1997 requires the City to obtain consent to the lease from State Land Services at the Department of Lands (DOL) on behalf of the Minister for Lands. Once the lease has been prepared by the City's external solicitor, the City will forward the document to the DOL for its consideration and request "in-principle" consent.

Comment

The current zoning for the land under the Agreed Structure Plan No 2 is “commercial” and a café/patisserie is a permitted use.

Should Council agree to the lease, given that the proposed lease is not an “exempt disposition”, it will be necessary to publish a local notice of the proposal inviting public submissions.  Subject to no submissions being received from the advertising process, formal consent to the lease as outlined in this report is sought from Council.

 

Should any submissions be received, the lease will not be executed until a further report is presented to Council for consideration.

 

Administration supports the proposed new lease of Tenancy 4 to the joint tenants as outlined in this report.

Statutory Compliance

The public notice advertisement will fully comply with the requirements of Section 3.58 of the Local Government Act 1995 with respect to the proposed disposition.

In addition, the proposed lease tenure complies with the requirement of the Commercial Tenancy (Retail Shops) Act 1985 whereby a minimum tenure term of five (5) years is required along with the provision of a Disclosure Statement.

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “3     Economy - Progressive, connected communities that enable economic growth and employment.

3.2    Growing Business - Our community is a preferred place for business to locate and grow.

 

 

Risk Management Considerations

Nil

Policy Implications

The proposed lease has been negotiated in accordance with the “commercial” guidelines as outlined in the City's Tenancy Policy.

Financial Implications

The proposed lease will generate an annual income stream to the City of $30,630 (plus GST) per annum semi-gross, inclusive of all outgoings except electricity. Annual CPI increases will apply together with an opportunity to review the rent to market at the commencement of the proposed option period, should the tenant elect to exercise the option.

 

Use of the licence areas by the proposed joint tenants will generate the following additional income stream:

 

·    Indoor Library Dining Area: (18m2) $2,250 (plus GST) per annum; and

 

·    Outdoor Alfresco Dining Area: (62m2) @ $6,200 (plus GST) per annum.

 

The changes to the Commercial Tenancy (Retail Shops) Act 1985, effective 1 January 2013 prohibit landlords from claiming legal expenses relating to the preparation, negotiation or execution of leases and associated documentation. It is estimated that the preparation of the proposed commercial lease by the City's external solicitor will cost in the region of $1,500 (plus GST) and disbursements.

Issue

To consider a petition PT03-11/14, requesting the installation of steel and concrete bollards at the intersection of Mirrabooka Avenue and Southmead Drive, Landsdale.

 

Background

Council received petition PT03-11/14 at its meeting on the 9 December 2014. The petition was signed by 26 residents representing 23 properties in Landsdale area and reads as below:

 “We, the undersigned, all being residents of the City of Wanneroo do formally request Council’s consideration: On the provision of steel and concrete bollards along the nature strip at the intersection of Mirrabooka Avenue and Southmead Drive, Landsdale (as illustrated in the attachment) between the intersection and the residents abutting the intersection as a matter of safety.

 

More specifically, of the 23 properties represented by the signatures on this petition, 10 were from properties within a 300 metre radius of the intersection, a further nine were within a 2km radius and the remaining 5 were greater than 2 kilometres from the intersection. The petition did not contain a signature from the property closest to the intersection traffic, 8 Glenarn Green, which is located on the north-east corner of this intersection.

 

Refer to Attachment 1 for a locality map showing the location of the intersection for petition PT03-11/14.

Detail

Mirrabooka Avenue, adjacent to Southmead Drive, is a two lane single carriageway District Distributor Road, carrying approximately 17,660 vehicles per day with a posted speed limit of 70 km/hr. This road is designed to carry high traffic volumes distributing traffic to residential and industrial areas and to connect to other District Distributor or Primary Distributor Roads.

 

Southmead Drive is a Local Distributor Road carrying approximately 1,640 vehicles per day and operates under the default built up area speed limit of 50 km/hr. This road is designed to collect and distribute residential traffic within the Landsdale area.

 

Each year, the City receives updated crash data (over a five year period) from Main Roads WA for the City’s road network. The crash data includes crashes reported to WA Police. There had been three reported crashes at the intersection for the five year period between 2009 and 2013. One of the crash required hospital admission while the other two were non‑injury minor crashes. There had been no ‘run off road’ (leaving carriageway) crashes recorded at this intersection.

 

Consultation

Nil

Comment

The recorded crash history at the intersection of Mirrabooka Avenue and Southmead Drive does not indicate a high level of safety risk associated with ‘run off road’ (leaving carriageway) crashes. There are 135 listed Black Spot intersections within the City which does not include this intersection. It is therefore considered that this intersection is not a high priority intersection requiring attention and that the risk associated with ‘run off road’ (leaving carriageway) crashes is considered low.

 

Bollards are considered an unnecessary hazard within the road reserve. Steel and concrete bollards are considered non frangible (i.e. it will not break away or fold to absorb any impact) and therefore will be a safety hazard themselves to motorists. Guardrails are generally used in high speed environments parallel to the roadway to protect motor vehicle occupants from road side hazarrds and redirect errant drivers back onto the road way. It is not considered to be an effective measure in this instance.

 

Administration therefore does not support the petitioners’ request for the installation of steel and concrete bollards along the nature strip at the intersection of Mirrabooka Avenue and Southmead Drive, Landsdale.

Issue

To consider petition PT04-11/14 requesting Council to address various traffic issues experienced by residents along Sandison Way, Landsdale.

 

Background

Council, at its meeting of 11 November 2014, received petition PT04-11/14 with 85 signatories and added a further 34 signatories to the list at its meeting in 3 February 2015. The petition was signed by 119 residents representing 80 properties and reads as follows;

 

“WE, the undersigned all being Residents of the City of Wanneroo do formally request Council’s consideration on;

a)    Addressing the management of traffic flow through intersection and turns along Sandison Way Landsdale and neighbouring streets.

b)    In particular the intersection of Sandison Way and Raeburn Cr, by widening the intersection through reducing the footpath on the North West section of the intersection (as highlighted by the attachment and the installation of solid road line marking or traffic island on the bend.

c)    Request the City of Wanneroo to provide residents along Sandison Way Landsdale and neighbouring streets a range of options on addressing the above issues (including speeding throughout the area)”

 

Of the 80 properties represented;

·    10 were from properties along Sandison Way,

·    44 were from other properties within a 300m radius of Sandison Way,

·    8 were from City of Wanneroo residents outside the 300m radius, and

·    18 were from non-residents of the City of Wanneroo.

 

Refer to Attachment 1 for a locality map showing the location of Sandison Way for petition PT04-11/14.

Detail

Sandison Way is a 6 metre wide Local Access Road with a footpath constructed on the west side and operates under the default built up area speed limit of 50 km/hr. This road is designed to provide local traffic access to residential properties in the area.

 

Traffic counts undertaken in March 2015 reported traffic volumes of 570 vehicles per day with a 85th percentile speed (85% of the vehicles driving at or below) of 48 km/hr.

 

Each year, the City receives updated crash data (over a five year period) from Main Roads WA for the City’s road network. The crash data includes crashes reported to WA Police. There were no reported crashes recorded for Sandison Way for the five year period between 2009 and 2013.

 


 

 

In accordance with the City's Traffic Management Investigation and Intervention (TMII) Policy (Policy), Sandison Way was assessed with a Traffic Management score of 16, which indicates that the construction of traffic treatments including any infrastructure modifications are not able to be justified ahead of other high priority projects. The TMII Policy provides the decision making process to decide whether roads require infrastructure changes or increased policing. The Policy requires a score of over 60 to qualify for traffic management treatments, while scores between 30 and 60 points warrant attention to law enforcement and driver education.

 

The City contacted the petition organiser on Tuesday 17 March 2015 to discuss the issues being faced in more detail. The issues were summarised as follows;

 

-     Lane compliance along Sandison Way through the bend at the Raeburn Crescent / Sandison Way intersection.

-     Lane compliance for vehicles turning right in and out of the Raeburn Crescent / Sandison Way intersection.

-     Speed of traffic along Sandison Way through the bend at the Raeburn Crescent / Sandison Way intersection.

 

At the request of the petition organiser, the City’s mobile CCTV camera was also utilised during the first week of April to capture video footage of traffic behaviour experienced at the road bend in Sandison Way and its intersection with Raeburn Crescent to assist with investigations.

 Consultation

The City, in February 2015, requested Main Roads WA to consider the installation of centreline linemarking along Sandison Way for the full length. The requested linemarking was to comprise of unbroken separation lines on the road curves with broken separation lines provided between the curves and extending to the intersections.

 

Main Roads WA rejected the City’s request in May 2015 advised as follows;

 

 “Main Roads would normally only consider installing centreline marking if the local road is a higher speed local distributor road or above and has in excess of 2500 vehicles per day or has a high crash ratio. None of these criteria have been met. As such, I advise you that the installation of a centre line has not been approved.”

Comment

The alignment, geometry and curvature of Sandison Way is not uncommon in the Landsdale area and many parts of the metropolitan area. The road curvatures are designed to achieve voluntary reduction in vehicles speed, which in the case of Sandison Way, has had the effect of slowing down motorists with the recorded 85th percentile speed of 48 km/hr.

 

The City does not support the petitioner’s request to widen the intersection of Raeburn Crescent and Sandison Way. Widening the intersection will encourage higher speeds of motorists entering onto Sandison Way which is contrary to the City’s aim to control vehicle speeds in residential areas. Furthermore, sightlines at the intersection are considered to be adequate and enable motorists to safely complete all movements when turning at the intersection.

 

A review of the recorded video footage for the four days, over the peak times of 3.00pm and 6.00pm, revealed that motorists generally did not stay lane compliant when navigating the road bend along Sandison Way and also when turning in and out of the Raeburn Crescent/Sandison Way intersection.

 

The volume of traffic witnessed was low and speeds did not appear to be excessive during these periods. There were traffic incidences or near misses witnessed during these times. It is considered that the behaviour of motorists in this instance is typical of those experienced at other road bends and intersections of this nature in a low trafficked local road environment.

Speeding/hooning and cutting of corners by motorists at intersections are considered to be a driver behaviour issues which are contrary to the State’s road rules. WA Police is the responsible authority to ensure motorists not only comply with the default area speed limit but also ensure that drivers drive in accordance with the Road Traffic Act 1974 and associated Road Traffic Code 2000.

 

In consideration of Main Roads WA’s response, the latest traffic count data, the assessment against the City’s TMII Policy including Sandison Way not having a recorded crash history, it is considered that infrastructure modifications to Sandison Way are not able to be justified ahead of other high priority traffic treatment projects within the City.

 

Concerns regarding driver behaviour issues should be directed to WA Police on 131 444. For more information about reporting hoon behaviour, residents should navigate to the WA Police website or more specifically by using the below link:

 

http://www.police.wa.gov.au/Yoursafety/Antisocialbehaviour/Reportinghoons/tabid/1127/Default.aspx

 

As an alternative to infrastructure changes to Sandison Way, the planting of verge trees can have a positive impact on motorists creating an environment conducive to slower speeds and discouraging motorists from cutting corners and mounting the verge area.

Issue

To consider the outcomes of the South Ward Active Reserve Master Planning process.

 

Background

The South Ward Active Reserve Master Planning process has been undertaken by the South Ward Community Reference and Sporting User Group (the Reference Group). The Reference Group has been established as a result of Council considering Petition PT04-10/13, which was presented to Council at its meeting held on 15 October 2013. The petition requested that Council consider "the provision of improved sport and recreation facilities at Hudson Reserve in Girrawheen. This would include amongst other things – improved lighting, better playground and hard court amenity and increase active field maintenance."

 

As a consequence, Council considered report CD02-02/14 and resolved the following:

 

“1.           NOTES the petition PT04-10/13 table to Council at its Ordinary Council Meeting held on 15 October 2013;

2.             ACKNOWLEDGES the immediate needs of Hudson Park as identified within the report and responds to those needs as a matter of priority;

3.             AUTHORISES the formation of a South Ward Community Reference and Sporting User Group, including the development of an appropriate Terms of Reference to focus initially on the needs of Hudson Park;

4.             LISTS $250,000 within the draft 2014/15 budget to address the asset and maintenance matters identified in the report and matters identified by the Reference Group; and

5.             AUTHORISES the Director Community Development to advise the petitioners.”

 

A Terms of Reference was consequently drafted and considered by Council at its meeting held on 22 May 2014 (Attachment 1) and resolved the following:

 

“1.     APPROVES the Terms of Reference for the South Ward Community Reference and Sporting User Group as detailed in Attachment 1;

2.       APPOINTS BY ABSOLUTE MAJORITY the Mayor and the South Ward Councillors to the South Ward Community Reference and Sporting User Group;

3.       AUTHORISES a maximum of one (1) representative from each suburb within the South Ward, for a total of seven (7) representative, and a maximum of seven representatives (7) from Sporting User Groups located within the South Ward; and

4.       NOTES an Expression of Interest will be conducted seeking representation from community members and Sporting User Group.”

 

By way of summary, the Role/Purpose and Aims and Functions of the Reference Group are as follows:

 

“Role and Purpose: To guide the development of Master Plans for the Active Reserves in the South Ward to enable these facilities to meet the current and future needs of the Community and to inform the City's 10 Year Capital Works Program.

 

Aims and Functions:

 

1.1     To recommend to Council by no later than February 2015, a Master Plan to guide the development of Hudson Park, Girrawheen, as the first priority.

1.2     To recommend to Council by no later than February 2015 a Master Plan to guide the development of the following Active reserves and associated facilities within the South Ward (as listed in Attachment 1);

1.3     To consider within the Master Planning process, joint use active reserves (City of Wanneroo and the Department of Education) within the South Ward.”

 

In seeking to support the Reference Group in achieving its role and stated aims, a Project Methodology was developed (Attachment 2) and endorsed by the Reference group at its meeting held on 13 August 2014.

Detail

The Master Planning Process

 

The Master Planning process was undertaken as per the methodology set out in Attachment 2. Within each meeting agenda for the Reference Group, a report was provided for the Active Reserves within the locality/localities identified for that meeting, providing the following information:

 

·        City of Wanneroo policy considerations;

·        Overview of current facilities;

·        Overview of usage and limitations;

·        Current infrastructure condition;

·        Analysis of current population and demographics of the locality;

·        Future impacts and site limitations;

·        Future usage;

·        Consideration of base principles and assumptions; and

·        Financial implications – current budget items listed.

 

The outcomes sought from each meeting of the Reference Groups were as follows:

 

·        Identify agreed base principles/assumptions for each of the Active Reserves;

·        Identify an agreed understanding of future usage for each of the Active Reserves;

·        Identification of required infrastructure upgrades, listed in an indicative priority order; and 

·        An agreed preliminary General Arrangement Concept for each Active Reserve.

 

At the next meeting of the Reference group, a further report was provided confirming the outcomes of the previous workshop discussions, including:

 

·        Identified Infrastructure Upgrades;

·        Preliminary Cost Estimates (Order of Magnitude); and

·        Initial prioritisation.

·        Upon endorsement by the Reference Group, the information generated from each workshop was then developed into an illustrative Master Plan with a formal cost estimate undertaken by an external Cost Planner.

 

As a result of the Master Planning process, the agreed base principles/assumptions for each Active Reserve were as follows:

 

·        The Park (Active Reserve) will continue to be used for both organised sport and passive recreational purposes, consistent with its designation as a Neighbourhood Park;

·        The Park (Active Reserve) will continue to accommodate use by both junior and senior sports;

·        Facility hire will continue to be managed by the City through its existing facility booking system and guided by the City's Facility Hire policy; and

·        The Active Reserve (playing field) will continue to be of a multi-purpose nature primarily (but not exclusively) providing for AFL, cricket, rectangular field sports (soccer and rugby) and diamond sports. 

 

Master Planning Outcomes

 

A summary of the Master Planning Outcomes is included within (Attachment 3). In total 14 separate Active Reserves were included within the process (this included the Montrose Park Tennis Facility) with a total of 89 individual infrastructure projects being identified. Based on the external Cost Planner report, the total estimated cost of the upgrades identified has been put at $17.2M.

 

It should be noted that this is significantly more than the initial preliminary Order of Cost estimate of $7.2M, which was reported to the Reference Group at its meeting held on 8 December 2014. Upon initial review by Administration the cost difference relates to increased allowances for contingencies, professional fees and cost escalations, in addition to increased revised estimates for the individual projects. These estimates will be further reviewed and refined as a part of the implementation of each of the individual projects.

 

The resulting draft Master Plans for each of the identified Active Reserves have been included for information within (Attachment 4).

 

A summary of outcomes based on infrastructure type has been included in (Attachment 5). The range of projects is quite diverse and includes upgrades to existing toilets and changerooms, a new sports amenities building, floodlighting installations, hard court upgrades, new or extension of existing path networks and the installation of outdoor fitness equipment. The largest number of projects includes floodlighting (12), path networks (12), Building Audits/refurbishment of toilets and changerooms (11), outdoor fitness equipment (8), and car park extensions/upgrades (7).

Prioritisation of Identified Individual Infrastructure Projects

 

Project prioritisation for the outcomes of the South Ward Active Reserve Master Planning process has been undertaken using the matrix template and criteria as included within (Attachment 7). The matrix and criteria is based on existing matrices used in the prioritisation of the City's Dry Parks, Shade Structures and Playground upgrades.

 

The matrix template has been applied to each individual Active Reserve identified within the master planning process, capturing each of the infrastructure upgrades identified by the Reference Group.

 

The matrix includes seven criteria in total (A1 to A7). A brief outline of each of the matrix criteria is provided below:

 

A1 - Current level of the reserve on average per week.

·           Captures the current level of use of the Active Reserve, assigning a rating of 5 to the highest level of use and a rating of 1 to the lowest level of use.

A2 - Would additional infrastructure on this reserve increase the current level of use?

·           Captures the impact of the infrastructure upgrade on the future use of the Active Reserve, assigning a rating of 3 for yes and 1 for no.

A3 - SEIFA Index (Advantage & Disadvantage - ID Forecast).

·           The Social Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA Index) for Advantage and Disadvantage is taken from the City's ID Forecast modelling, which in turn is based on ABS 2011 data. The index represents relative levels of advantage and disadvantage for each suburb within the City based on the factors of income, education attainment, unemployment and occupation.

·           The average score on the index is 1,000 (based on Australian average – population weighted); therefore a score > 1,000 have a relatively lower level of disadvantage, while scores of < 1,000 have a relatively higher level of relative disadvantage.

·           On this basis a rating of 5 has been given to areas with the lowest score (therefore higher level of disadvantage) and a rating of 1 to areas with the highest score (therefore lower level of disadvantage).

A4 - Prioritisation Rating By South Ward Working Group

·           Captures the existing prioritisation given by the Reference Group/Administration for each individual infrastructure upgrade identified for each Active Reserve.

·           A rating of 5 has been given to the highest priority and a rating of 1 has been given to the lowest priority.

A5 - Supporting amenities on site.

·           Seeks to captures the impact a particular infrastructure upgrade has on the Active Reserve and its existing amenity.

·           A high rating will be given to infrastructure upgrades that complement existing amenities and therefore further enhances provision on that site, where as a lower rating will be provided to infrastructure upgrades that do not.

A6 – Local Planning Policy 4.3 – Public Open Space Development Amenity Assessment

·           Captures the assessment of the proposed infrastructure upgrade against the policy, providing a rating of 3 for items which are identified as minimum development requirements and a rating of 1 for items which are identified as overprovision within the policy. 

A7 - Precinct consideration

·           The criterion seeks to reflect the role of the Active Reserve within its precinct (catchment based on suburb or suburbs). If the role of the Active Reserve, or an individual infrastructure upgrade in the Active Reserve, is significant within the precinct, then a higher rating will be applied, compared to an infrastructure upgrade that is of a lower level of significance.

 

A summary of the matrix scores for all individual infrastructure upgrades identified within South Ward is included in (Attachments 8), and has been used as the basis for the prioritisation of the individual infrastructure upgrades in the development of the draft 2015/16 10 Year Capital Works program.


 

It should be noted, however, that the Hudson Park infrastructure upgrades were considered separately within the development of the draft 2015/16 10 Year Capital Works Budget, given that Hudson Park was considered the first priority within the Terms of Reference.

 

Finalisation of Master Planning Process

 

It should also be noted that finalising the prioritisation process has been impacted by the lack of advice being provided by the 19 State Sporting Associations who were contacted by Administration requesting the provision of the following key data:

 

·        Relevant strategic planning documentation in relation to the growth of the respective sport and future facility requirements;

·        2014 membership numbers for clubs that are affiliated with the respective Associations and which are based within the City of Wanneroo; and

·        Projected membership numbers for those City of Wanneroo based clubs projected forward to 2019 and 2024.

 

As a consequence, Administration will seek to finalise the City of Wanneroo Active Reserve Master Plan Report (which will be inclusive of the South Ward Active Reserve Master Planning process outcomes) as an interim report. Finalisation will be subject to further demand analysis and discussions with State Sporting Associations and City of Wanneroo Clubs in relation to their strategic plans, future player and membership projections etc.  This work will be ongoing and completed prior to the commencement of the 2016/17 budget cycle and reported to Council by December 2015. The outcomes of the Interim Report will be used to guide the 2015/16 budget process.

 

Note: the recommendations listed in this report refer to the “City's Sports Fields Master Plan – South Zone draft report”. This should be read to mean the City of Wanneroo Active Reserve Master Plan Report – South Ward Draft Report”.

Consultation

In respect to the work of the Reference Group, the following consultation has been undertaken;

·        City wide on-line survey of existing users of the City's Active Reserves in July and August 2014; and

·        Direct consultation with South Ward Elected Members and community representatives and user groups, via the Reference Group.

 

In addition to this, it should be noted that public consultation in relation to the South Ward Active Reserve Master Plan process has yet to occur. It is envisaged that this will take place as a part of the broader public comment process for the consolidated City of Wanneroo Active Reserve Master Plan Report, inclusive of the South, Central and Coastal Wards. This will occur once Council has considered the outcomes of the Central and Coastal Ward processes.

 

It should also be noted that each individual infrastructure upgrade project will be subject to a separate consultation process at the point of implementation, as guided by the City’s Community Engagement Policy.

Comment

By way of summary, the purpose of the Master Plan process has been to:

 

·        Guide the development or re-development (upgrade) of infrastructure;

·        Identify current/future uses, levels of use and barriers to use;

·        Maximise the flexibility and use of each reserve;

·        Provide evidence based need and feasibility to support the proposed upgrades;

·        Identify agreed project priorities; and

·        Inform the City’s 10 Year Capital Works Budget.

 

As a result, the intention of the South Ward Active Reserve Master Planning process has been to identify the specific infrastructure projects required at each of the Active Reserves within the South Ward to meet the needs of the community both now and into the future. The intention has also been to provide an evidence base which assists Council and Administration in making decisions in regards to the funding and timing of projects. 

 

To a large degree the purpose of the Master Planning process has been achieved, however more work is required to be undertaken in the area of demand forecasting and analysis to understand in greater detail when additional infrastructure provision is required and to enable any changes in future uses to be identified and accommodated as a part of the process. This work will require Administration to work directly with the relevant State Sporting Associations and local clubs.

Statutory Compliance

The outcomes of the South Ward Active Reserve Master Planning process are required to be compliant with the South Ward Community Reference and Sporting User Group Terms of Reference (Attachment 1).

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “2     Society - Healthy, safe, vibrant and active communities.

2.2    Healthy and Active People - We get active in our local area and we have many opportunities to experience a healthy lifestyle.

Risk Management Considerations

Nil

Policy Implications

The Active Reserve Master Planning process undertaken by the Reference Group has considered the City's Local Planning 4.3 Public Open Space Policy, City's Floodlighting Policy and the City's Facility Hire and Use Policy. 

 

Implementation of the outcomes of the process will also need to consider the City’s Community Engagement Policy.

Financial Implications

As identified earlier in this report the outcomes of the South Ward Active Reserve Master Planning process undertaken by the Reference group has been used to inform the development of the 2015/16 10 Year Capital Works Program, with work continuing on finalising demand analysis and discussions with State Sporting Associations and City of Wanneroo Clubs in relation to their strategic plans. 

This work will be ongoing and completed prior to the commencement of the 2016/17 budget cycle. The outcomes of the Interim Report will be used to guide the 2015/16 budget process.

 

As identified within Attachment 3, the total cost of the identified upgrades has been put at $17.2M, acknowledging that further work is to be undertaken in the review of the cost estimates provided.

 

This is a significant commitment and further work will need to occur in developing a funding model for the implementation of the identified works in a sustainable manner, in particular in light of the City's current and future commitments in the provision of infrastructure of this nature.

Issue

To consider progress of the Butler North District Public Open Space Master Plan Review. 

 

Background

Butler North District Open Space (the POS) is an 11ha site made up of 4.5ha of POS from LSP60 (Lots 1001 and 1002, Marmion Ave, Alkimos) and 5.5ha from LSP27 (Butler Ridgewood). The 4.5ha from LSP60 forms part of the 10% POS provision and the 5.5ha from LSP27 is an existing POS reserve. The southern part of the DOS has already been ceded as POS (Halesworth Park), while the northern part is still within a larger lot that includes the future high school site (Attachment1). The northern half is within the LWP “Trinity” development, while the southern part is in the Satterley Property Group Butler development.

 

In 2006, Administration undertook a Master Plan of the site to inform the development of the structure planning around the POS and the development of the two school sites identified immediately adjacent to the POS. The Master Plan was also undertaken to inform future budget planning for the site.

 

The Master Plan was undertaken in collaboration with the Department of Education (DOE), who jointly funded the study and in close consultation with the developers, being LWP and the Satterley Property Group.

 

The Master Plan for the POS was completed in May 2007 (Attachment 2) and included the development of the following infrastructure on the site:

 

Facility

Associated Infrastructure

Primary School

School buildings and landscaping

Car Parking

Oval

High School

School buildings and landscaping

Car Parking

Performing Arts and Resource Centre

Playing fields

1 oval (AFL, Athletics, Hockey/Soccer)

1 oval (Football, Hockey/Soccer, Cricket)

1 shared use (Hocket/Soccer)

1 Cricket practice wickets

Hard Courts

16 shared use (Tennis/Netball)

Built Infrastructure

Clubrooms including social areas, kitchenette, office

Lighting

Playing fields

Hardcourts

Passive Park and Associated Infrastructure

Informal amphitheatre

Path network

2 playground areas

BBQ area

Sheltered spectator area

Sheltered rest area

 

At the time of the completion of the Master Plan, the total estimated cost of the POS elements (excluding schools) was estimated at $7.23M, with the primary funding sources being the City of Wanneroo, the Department of Education and the Department of Sport and Recreation’s Community Sport and Recreation Facility Fund (CSRFF) Grant. The project is currently listed in the 2014/15 10 Year Capital Works Budget as follows:

Detail

Administration appointed Davis Langdon (the Consultants) in November 2014 via a Request for Tender process to undertake the Butler North District Public Open Space Master Plan Review (the Review).

 

The Review has been undertaken to provide an updated Master Plan showing facility provision and placement, updated cost estimates, a project funding model and project staging. This was considered necessary as a result of the following factors:

 

·        The configuration of the land parcel including the DPOS, Primary School and High School sites changing since the finalisation of the initial Master Plan;

·        The Primary School site footprint has increased to a total footprint of 4.5 ha compared to the original 4 ha site;

·        As a result of the two points listed above, the need to revise the DPOS site in terms of its ability to accommodate the infrastructure identified within the original Master Plan; and

·        To update cost estimates and project phasing in light of the time elapsed since the initial Master Plan was completed and any changes in infrastructure provision resulting from the changes in site configuration.

 

The Scope of the review includes the:

 

·        Confirmation of City and DOE facility provision requirements;

·        Confirmation of joint use requirements/opportunities for both the City and DOE;

·        Configuration of individual infrastructure items, based on the amended footprint of the land parcel;

·        Review the project cost and funding model as outlined within the initial Master Plan report; and

·        Review project staging, taking into consideration known DOE timeframes for the development of the high school site, providing specific advice for the implementation of the City of Wanneroo elements over a four year period from 2014/15 to 2018/19.

 

The methodology undertaken by the Consultants included the following:

 

1.       Review the existing Master Plan

2.       Identify current provision requirements

3.       Opportunities Analysis

 

4.       Options Analysis (including costs and funding)

5.       Amendments to existing Master plan

6.       Develop Capital Expenditure Plan (over 4 years)

 

A copy of the draft Butler North District Public Open Space Master Plan revision has been included in (Attachment 3). A copy of the final Butler North District Public Open Space Master Plan Review Report has been made available within the Elected Member’s Reading Room.

 

The key points noted within the Review are as follows:

 

·        John Butler College (Primary School) was elevated to a Specialist School which subsequently changed the size and layout of the primary school. This will therefore alter the size and layout of the Secondary School site.

·        The conservation area identified within the Master Plan is no longer adjoining the reserve and has been replaced with residential development.

·        Further anthropological survey and investigation has revealed there is no need to obtain a Section 18 approval for development within the area and the site.

·        The playing fields need to be flexible to accommodate a variety of sports and competition use.

·        The City and DOE have new policies and agreements on the provision requirements, design, contribution, management and asset management of facilities which need to be incorporated within the revised proposal.

·        Associated infrastructure should embrace design principles such as: universal access, improved urban water sensitive design, improved intergenerational interaction and Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED).

·        The importance of the location and access of the shared use Performing Art and Resources Centre is emphasised.

·        2011 Census data indicates that the City is attracting a growing proportion of working age residents. Immediate residents of the POS are likely to have relatively higher level of disposable income and therefore a greater means to participate in organised sport.

·        There is also a rise in the number of young families and young children that will require age appropriate play provision. In addition 35.4% were born overseas and 14.1% came from Non-English speaking backgrounds.

 

Recommended key infrastructure provision within the Master Plan resulting from the completion of the Review is as follows:

 

·        Playing Fields:

Provision of two floodlight senior sized multipurpose active reserves;

Provision of one shared open space for informal physical activity; and

Provision of Little athletics facilities including a jump pit that can be used for beach volleyball.

·        Hard Courts:

Provision of 16 multi-purpose hard courts semi covered area (Tennis, Basketball, Netball, Volleyball).

·        Built Infrastructure:

Consideration of co-located multipurpose sporting pavilion/community building;

Consideration of co-located performing arts and resource centre; and

Community Art: including a suggested ping pong tables, chess/checkers tables and sets and quiz finder.

·        Lighting:

Provision of eight centralised floodlighting towers to Australian Standard (AS 2560) for large ball sport training.

 

 

·        Passive Parks and Associated Infrastructure:

Interpretive path network around perimeter;

•     Passive use amenities: pathways, landscaping, picnic facilities and conservation interpretive signage;

•     Seating and ‘hang out spaces’;

•     Accessible toilets (automatic);

•     Shaded areas;

•     Linear-linking intergenerational play space;

•     Bin and storage area; and

•     Car parking.

 

The key steps in relation to the implementation of the Review outcomes and the revised Master Plan are as follows:

 

No.

Recommendation

Timeframe

1

The City is to liaise with the DOE to obtain a Heads of Agreement for the design and construction of the site.

Immediately

2

Procure a detailed concept design for the site to inform detailed analysis and practical construction. This should involve liaison with Satterley and LWP Property Groups.

Immediately

3

Prepare a Shared Use Agreement that will guide the development and the ongoing operational management of the site. It will investigate and agree to the optimal management models for the City and DOE/user group.

Immediately

4

Commence design of the entire site.

- Access networks, car parking and path networks

- Playing fields

- Associated infrastructure

- Hard courts

- Built Infrastructure

Medium

 

It should be noted that the layout of the individual elements identified in the revised Master Plan will be subject to further revision as a part of the detailed design process, in particular the location and orientation of the sports amenities building. In the context of the current Master Plan, a single sports amenities building has been identified, located on the eastern side between the two playing fields. This orientation has been chosen as it maximises access from both playing fields, thus negating the need for more than one facility. The alternative option is to locate the sports amenities building adjacent to one playing field and to provide a secondary facility at the other playing field to accommodate storage, changeroom and toilet facilities. 

 

Revised staging for the development of the site is as listed in the Financial Implications section of this report, noting that an additional year will need to be added to the project to enable finalisation of the funding model with the relevant Developers and progress of detailed design and bulk earthworks. Consideration of an alternative staging plan to enable the early delivery of one playing field has been considered and would present challenges on the basis that the funding model and detailed design will still need to be completed prior to bulk earthworks, irrigation and turfing occurring. Further to this, it is not considered feasible to undertake bulk earthworks for one playing field and not the balance of the site. However, with that said, this option will continue to be investigated during the detail design phase of the project.

 

It should also be noted that as a part of the implementation of this project, a Project Plan will be developed, as per the City’s existing Project Management Framework. This will include the development of a Business Case which will include, but not be limited to, the following:

 

·        Confirmation of the funding model, including Developer funding responsibilities, DOE contributions and proposed external grant funding (i.e Department of Sport and Recreation CSRFF grants);

·        Development responsibilities between the City, Developers and DOE;

·        Management agreement between the City and DOE in terms of ongoing use and maintenance (including ongoing maintenance cost contributions); and

·        Lifecycle costing analysis and budgeting.

Progress of the project beyond the master planning stage had not occurred prior to the Review being undertaken due to availability of the land through the land development process and prioritisation of other community and sporting facility capital projects ahead of this project and therefore allocation of Administration resources to these projects.

Consultation

Discussions were held with the relevant stakeholders:

 

·        City of Wanneroo - community needs and trends which are currently being experienced within the northern corridor related to youth, early years and aging in place.

·        Education Department, Strategic Asset Planning Division - shared use and public access, Construction timelines and previous issues.

·        LWP Property Group & Gary Lewis Planners - Agreed Structure Plans, demographic profiling, facility requirements and integration and accessibility principles.

·        Satterley Property Group & CLE Town Planning and Design - Agreed Structure Plans, demographic profiling, facility requirements and integration and accessibility principles.

 

Contact with John Butler College was attempted via email and phone, however these provided to be unsuccessful. Administration will continue to seek to consult with the school during the subsequent planning and implementation phases.

 

This report will also seek approval to release the revised Butler District Open Space Master Plan for public comment, with a view to have this process completed and outcomes reported to Council by September 2015.

Comment

The Review process has clearly indicated that the outcomes of the initial Master Plan are still valid and can be accommodated within the current footprint of the DPOS.

 

The need to revise the funding model for the Master Plan, as a result of the increased total project cost and requirements for increased Developer contributions for base infrastructure works (as per the City's Public Open Space Local Planning Policy 4.3), will require the project schedule to be revised. This has been outlined in more detail in Financial Implications section of this report.

Statutory Compliance

The following references of core legislative and planning policies have been considered and where possible incorporated into the review:

 

 

 

 

·        Directions 2031, Department of Planning;

·        State Sporting Facilities Plans and Strategic Direction 5, Department of Sport and Recreation;

·        The Public Parkland Planning & Design Guide, Department of Sport and Recreation;

·        Public Open Space in Western Australia New Residential Developments, Parks and Leisure Australia; and

·        Active Open Space - Playing Fields, Centre for Sport and Recreation published by Curtin University.

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “2     Society - Healthy, safe, vibrant and active communities.

2.1    Great Places and Quality Lifestyle - People from different cultures find Wanneroo an exciting place to live with quality facilities and services.

 

“3      Environment – A healthy and sustainable natural and built environment.

1.1    Environmentally Friendly - You will be part of a community that has a balance of environmentally friendly development and conservation areas for future generations to enjoy.

1.2    Conserve water – We will have a community that encourages water conservation resulting in access to the right amount of water to meet our requirements.”

Policy Implications

The Master Plan has recognised the need for integrated planning and the need to align with the City’s Strategic Community Plan, Public Health Plan and numerous other policies and strategies that provides the framework for the delivery of services to the community. The list below highlights the policies which were considered and adhere to:

 

·        Public Open Space Local Planning Policy 4.3;

·        Urban Water Management Local Planning Policy 4.4;

·        Arts Management and Development Policy;

·        Community Consultation & Engagement Policy;

·        Facility Hire & Use Policy;

·        Disability Access & Inclusion Plan 2012-2015;

·        Shared Use Facilities with DoE Policy;

·        Development Activities by the City Policy; and

·        Sports Floodlighting Policy.

Financial Implications

The total revised cost of the Master Plan has been put at $21.9M, as outlined below. It should be noted that the funding of this amount is split between the City, the two Developers and the DOE. Grant funding via the Department of Sport and Recreation's Community Sport and Recreation Facility Fund will also be sought.

It should be noted that the funding model for the project will need to be renegotiated with the Developers, in particular, due to the obligations imposed on Developers as a result of the City's Public Open Space Local Planning Policy 4.3. This relates specifically to Developer responsibilities to undertake basic infrastructure provision (bulk earthworks, drainage, irrigation and turfing). This was not taken into account in the development of the funding model for the initial Master Plan as the policy was not in place at that time. As a result estimated contributions have been included within the draft 2015/16 10 Year Capital Works Budget for this project and will be updated once the funding model is agreed.

 

As a consequence, a revised project budget and schedule will be listed for this project for consideration in the draft 2015/16 10 Year Capital Works Program, as follows. An additional year has been added to enable the negotiation of the funding model and for design and base infrastructure to be delivered. This timeframe is subject to the negotiated outcome with Developers, which is to be commenced by Administration in  April 2015.

CD03-04/15       PT-03/15 Requesting Replacement of Sand Softfall at Lenham Park Marangaroo

File Ref:                                              1580 – 15/81564

Responsible Officer:                           Director Community Development

Disclosure of Interest:                         Nil

Issue

To consider petition PT01-03/15 presented to Council at its meeting held on 3 March 2015 requesting rubber soft fall installation at Lenham Park, Marangaroo.

 

Background

It should be noted that the subject park of the petition is Lenham Park and not Vosnacos Park, given that Vosnacos Park does not have any playground equipment or sand softfall on it.

 

Lenham Park (the Park) is located on the corner on Lenham Way, Marangaroo (Attachment 1). The Park is classified as a local Park and comprises of two lots approximately 0.5 and 0.4 hectares in size (0.9 ha total size). The following amenities are located on site:

 

·        Combination playground unit;

·        Sand softfall;

·        Park sign;

·        Rubbish bin; and

·        Basketball Pad equipped with back board and ring 

Detail

Petition PT01 – 03/15, is supported by 34 local signatures and specifically seeks the following:

 

"… That Council consider the replacement of the sand soft fall with rubber soft fall at Vosnacos Park (Lenham Way) Marrangaroo”

 

On receiving the petition Administration has investigated the request and can advise the following:

 

·        Submission of the petition was a result of an reported needle stick injury involving a young child at Lenham Park; 

·        Once notified about the incident Administration took the following immediate action:

The playground was closed within half an hour of City being notified of the incident;

The sand soft fall pit was then raked by City staff to a depth of approximately 60mm and no other needles were found. The playground remained closed until the following day when the sand pit was sieved by a contractor and then re-opened.

·        The playground equipment at Lenham Park was upgraded through the City’s playground renewal program in 2012/13;

·        A softfall matrix (Attachment 2) was completed for Lenham Park, as part of the City’s playground replacement in 2012/13. This assessment recommended the installation of sand softfall. The recommendation was based on the park having good passive surveillance surrounded by residential properties.

 

·        Previously routine maintenance had removed glass from the play area in 2012.

·        Consideration given to perceived advantages and disadvantages for the installation of rubber, sand and pine bark softfall. (Attachment 3) 

 

Consultation

Nil

Comment

This is an isolated incident and Lenham Park does not have a record of continued anti-social behaviour resulting in identified ongoing risks to the community. However it is appropriate that the City focusses on a strategy to monitor the park over the next 12 month through a range of maintenance and community safety strategies to determine any ongoing risk and should it be determined as an ongoing risk, then consideration be given to the replacement of the sand softfall with rubber softfall.

 

Administration considers that the legal implications and risk for the City in respect of such incidents are, to a reasonable extent, mitigated by complying with the recommendations of the softfall matrix and the maintenance strategy set out above.

Statutory Compliance

Nil

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “2     Society - Healthy, safe, vibrant and active communities.

2.2    Healthy and Active People - We get active in our local area and we have many opportunities to experience a healthy lifestyle.

Risk Management Considerations

The ongoing management of any potential risk at the site will be monitored through maintenance and community safety strategies and appropriate actions taken.

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

The ongoing additional strategies will be met through the City’s existing operating budgets. Should it be identified there is ongoing risk at the Park the estimated installation of rubber softfall would be as follows;   

 

Item

Proposed Cost

Supply and install rubber to existing playground area 

$75,900

Remove and dispose of existing sand top 100mm layer

$2,000

Allowance for temporary fencing

$2,000

Contingency 5%

$3,995

Sub total

$83,895

Design fees 3% of Budget

$2,516.85

Project Management Fees 3% of Budget 

$2,516.85

Total

$88,928.70

 

The cost estimate is based on the following:

 

·        Existing softfall area (as per measurements 13.85m x 24.9m):  345m2 (note this is a substantially large play area considering the park’s total area is < 1ha and fits into the Public Open Space hierarchy of Local Park); and

·        The assets replacement value for rubber is $220/m2; cost for supply & install rubber to full playground extents = $78,320 (see below for full costing if the whole area is proposed to be rubberised).

 

The estimated cost would also need to be listed for consideration in the City’s 10 year capital works program as there currently no allocation for this works. 

Voting Requirements

Simple Majority

 

Recommendation

That Council:-

1.       NOTES the Petition PT-03/15 tabled at its meeting held on 3 March 2015;

2.       NOT SUPPORT the installation of rubber softfall at Lenham Park; and

3.       ADVISES the petition organisers of the outcomes of this report.

Sand

Advantages       

§ Has a high social factor – Children (and parents) love playing with toys and digging in the sand, making sand castles etc

§ Compared to other surfaces sand tends to stay cooler in the hot months

§ Sand has an initial low cost, is easy to install, readily available and spreads easily

§ Sand does compact over time, though generally tends to stay “softer” than other surfaces, especially when it is cleaned or aerated during the sifting process.

§ Anecdotal evidence suggests there is less injuries to children on sand softfall than on other surfaces. Some research suggests THAT SAND CAUSES LESS INJURIES TO CHILDREN WHEN COMPARED TO FALLING ON OTHER SURFACES. Click on the following link to see a recent article from ABC news. http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2009/12/15/2771922.htm

 

Disadvantages  

§ Sand can hide hazards that may not be evident to patrons

§ Sand should be sifted to remove unwanted hazards and leaf litter

§ Sand tends to get dirty over time (especially if it is not cleaned)

§ Sand pits tend to suffer mounding over time if the pits are not levelled during cleaning (especially coastal areas)

§ Grass tends to grow into sand pits if they are not maintained

§ Tree roots can grow into sand pits making the under surface harder

§ Not suitable for wheelchair manoeuvring

§ Requires a border to retain the sand

§ Can hide animal (especially cat) faeces

           

Rubber

Advantages       

§ Does not tend to harbour hazards and is ideal in areas that have a high syringe, glass or leaf litter problem (though it has been known for needles to be stuck into the rubber, hence the surface should still be regularly inspected).

§ Low level of maintenance is required and is quick and easy to clean. This is beneficial where playgrounds tend to be forgotten or missed as part of a regular maintenance schedule.

§ Is generally low cost to maintain (also see cons below)

§ Availability of different colours and designs

§ Suitable for wheelchair manoeuvring

§ Patrons tend to leave shoes on when using a playground with this surface

 

Disadvantages           

§ Low social factor

§ High initial cost to install when compared to sand and woodchips

§ Although rubber should meet the Australian standards on compaction when laid, anecdotal evidence tends to suggest when a child falls from a reasonable height on rubber the shock reflects back into the person rather than being absorbed by the surface, creating a higher level of injuries.

§ The surface tends to get harder over time

§ Rubber tends to get very hot unless it is well protected by trees or shade sails

§ Covering playgrounds with shade sails can be very expensive. Depending on its location, the average life of a shade sail is about 18 months; this is due to vandalism, theft and storm /wind damage

§ If erecting shade sails these should be removed over the winter period to extend their life (increased cost for removal, storage and putting back up)

§ After a few years the surface tends to have a powdery residue on it which then gets on patrons when they play on it.

§ Rubber can be easily vandalized, either through being cut or ripped, or by solvents such as petrol being placed on the surface and being set alight (cases of this tend to be very low)

§ If not laid correctly the surface can rip and tear

§ Tree roots growing underneath can raise and/or damage the surface

§ Uneven or damaged surfaces can cause a trip hazard

§ The damage to the surface and repair costs if the equipment needs replacing or moving

§ If the rubber is consistently staying wet due to reticulation, then moss can grow on the surface creating a slip hazard

 

Woodchips

Advantages       

§ Tends to stay cooler in the hot months

§ Is a relatively low cost surface

§ Patrons tend to leave shoes on when using a playground with this surface

§ Aesthetically fits in locations that have a natural bush setting and are high in tree litter

 

Disadvantages  

§ Low social factor

§ Tends to compact very easily and gets very hard over a short period of time. A hard surface tends to cause a higher level of injuries

Issue

To consider the outcomes of the Department of Sport and Recreation’s Community Sporting and Recreation Facilities Fund (CSRFF) 2014 funding round.

 

Background

Through the CSRFF grant, the Department of Sport and Recreation allocates approximately $20 million on an annual basis to provide financial assistance to community groups and Local Government Authorities to develop basic infrastructure for sport and recreation.  The program aims to increase participation in sport and recreation with an emphasis on facilitating physical activity, through the development of sustainable, good quality, well-designed and well-utilised facilities.

 

At its meeting held on 16 September 2014, Council considered report CD02-0914 and resolved the following:

 

“That Council:-

 

1.   SUBMITS the following Community Sport and Recreation Facilities Fund Applications to the Department of Sport and Recreation for the 2014 fund round:

a.   Warradale Reserve – Oval Extension, Landscaping and Floodlighting;

b.   Oldham Park Changerooms – Multi Purpose Room Extension

2.   NOTES that a further report will be presented to Council in March 2015 advising the outcomes of the CSRFF applications for the 2014 funding round and related funding implications for the City’s 2014/15 Ten Year Capital Works Program.”

As a result, the following applications were submitted.

Administration received advice from the Department of Sport and Recreation in regards to the outcome of the 2014 CSRFF grant round on 30 March 2015, with the results being as follows:

As a result, additional funding will be required to make up for the funding shortfall. In both instances there is no change to the project timeframes.

Consultation

Consultation has been ongoing with the resident sporting clubs to ensure they are kept updated with the progress of the project

Comment

Whilst the Oldham Park project was eligible for funding through the CSRFF grant, the project was not deemed to be a priority. Projects are evaluated on the premise that they will increase physical activity and be multipurpose in function. While the facility will be multipurpose in nature, it was not seen to increase physical activity.

 

This report highlights a more significant issue regarding the pressure on the City’s financial capacity to deliver the large backlog of sporting infrastructure required to cater for the needs of a rapid growth area. Allocation of additional funds by state government to the CSRFF annual fund would support local governments to address this issue. Council’s current active reserve masterplanning process is identifying and confirming the need for upgrades to many existing active reserves as well as the need for development of additional new reserves to meet community demand. An example is the development of the Butler North Public Open Space(POS) which indicates a total project cost of approx. $22m to deliver.

Issue

To consider writing off an outstanding facility debtor account.

 

Background

Administration has undertaken a review of outstanding debts for the hire of Community Facilities with a single Doubtful Debt identified.

Detail

Regular annual and season hirers pay accounts at the beginning of each calendar month and Administration has a procedure in place for the reclamation of debt which is in excess of 30 days. This process has been followed and includes contacting the debtors to formally advise that their account is in arrears and then twice thereafter at 7 day intervals requesting settlement of the account. If this proves unsuccessful then access to the facility is withdrawn and all debts are handed over to the City's Finance Service Unit.

 

The Finance Service Unit engages a Debt Collection Agent who undertakes to contact the individuals and organisation, by telephone or directly, to facilitate settlement of the relevant accounts. In this case, every effort has been made to recoup these monies from the debtor listed through these processes to no avail. Accordingly, it is now considered appropriate to have the debt written off as identified below.

In terms of the action taken to recover this debt, Administration have, on a number of occasions, tried to recover hire fees from ATI Martial Arts over the course of 2013 and 2014, without success. A summary of the action taken has been included within (Attachment 1).

 

As a result, advice was sought from the Manager, Governance and Legal as to what further steps could be undertaken, in terms of legal action to reclaim the debt. A summary of this action is provided as follows:

 

·        A letter of demand from the Manager, Governance and Legal was sent by registered post and was not collected by debtor and in turn was returned to the City by Australia Post.

·        The same letter of demand was then sent via Perth Process Server to be hand delivered at both the residential address and business address of ATI Martial Arts and this too proved unsuccessful.

·        The process server identified that the debtors had moved residence as their property was up for sale and the real estate group would not pass on information of their whereabouts.

·        Further investigations carried out by the same process server have indicated that they have been very hard to locate.

As a result of the above, the Manager, Governance and Legal advised that it would not be viable to take this matter further as legal costs for commencing court proceedings for debt recovery would be in the region of $3,000 to $5,000 for solicitor’s fees and another $3,000 to $6,000 in further disbursements to locate ATI.  Advice was also provided that, unless the City is aware of any asset which the City can eventually enforce a judgment against, there would be a slim chance of recovery through the legal process.

Consultation

Nil

Comment

Administration has reviewed the existing framework to allow the debt collection process to be more efficient by undertaking the process on a more regular basis, subsequently minimising the risk to the City of further excessive debt. In all cases no further bookings are taken from debtors and the booking accounts for these groups and individuals are frozen, preventing any further bookings being made.

Statutory Compliance

Section 6.12 of the Local Government Act 1995 provides that:-

 

"(1) Subject to subsection (2) and any other written law, a local government may –

(a)     when adopting the annual budget, grant* a discount or other incentive for the early payment of any amount of money;

(b)     waive or grant concessions in relation to any amount of money; or

(c)     write off any amount of money which is owed to the local Government.

* Absolute majority required.”

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “4     Civic Leadership - Working with others to ensure the best use of our resources.

4.2    Working With Others - The community is a desirable place to live and work as the City works with others to deliver the most appropriate outcomes.

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

The debts are provided for within the Provision for Doubtful Debts and as a result the operating position of the City will not be affected.

Issue

To consider progress of the trial for free community tennis court access.

Background

At its meeting held on 11 November 2014, Council considered report MN02-11/14 – Trial for Free Use of Tennis Courts. As a result of Council's consideration of this report, Council resolved as follows:

 

"That Council INSTRUCTS Administration to investigate the feasibility of a trial period of free community access to tennis courts:-

 

1.      At Koondoola Oval, Koondoola and Bellport Parade, Mindarie and REPORT back to Council in December 2014; and

2.      IDENTIFIED by Administration as being underutilised and report back to Council in March 2015."

 

Subsequently, Council considered report CD04-12/14 at its meeting held on 9 December 2014 and resolved the following:

 

“That Council:-

1.       NOTES that the implementation of a trial period of free community access to the Koondoola Park and Bellport Park tennis courts is considered feasible;

2.       APPROVES the implementation of a formal trial period for Koondoola Park and Bellport Park, commencing from 1 January 2015 for a period of 12 months;

3.       APPROVES by ABSOLUTE MAJORITY the waiver of fees and charges as per the adopted 2014/15 Schedule of Fees and Charges (Attachment 2 refers) for the use of the City's tennis courts at Koondoola Park and Bellport Park for the duration of the trial period;

4.       NOTES that a further report on the outcomes of the first three months of the  trial period will be presented to Council for its consideration at its meeting in April 2015; and

5.       AMENDS Council's earlier resolution, requiring a report on other underutilised courts MN02-11/14 to be presented in March 2015, to allow this report to be presented in April 2015.”

Detail

Trial of Free Community Access

 

·    Bellport Parade Tennis Courts

 

On-site signage was installed on 12 January 2015 with information being provided to residents and user groups via a mail out on 5 January 2015.

 

 

A time lapse camera was installed at the courts from 17 February 2015 to 4 March 2015 (16 days) to gain an understanding of usage patterns in the initial stages of the trial period. 

 

The data shows that the courts were utilised every day, with average visits on weekdays by up to 20 individuals and over the weekend by up to 35 individuals. This highest recorded visit on any day was by 42 individuals with 9 on the lowest day. In total, during the data collection period, the venue was used by 405 individuals, however it should be noted that it is not possible to determine the number of repeat visitors. It should also be noted that this usage also includes regular hirers on Tuesday mornings and Friday afternoons.

 

Data collected prior to the trial period at Bellport Parade, as outlined in CD04-12/14, showed 75 casual bookings over a three month period.

 

No cases of vandalism or conflict between users have been reported in the trial period thus far.

 

·    Koondoola Tennis Courts

 

On-site signage was installed on 12 January 2015 with information being provided to residents and user groups via a mail out on 5 January 2015.

 

The resurfacing of these tennis courts was completed on 10 March 2015. The two week data collection period for these courts will commence on 20 April 2015 and is due for completion of 3 May 2015.

 

So far in the trial period, no cases of vandalism or conflict between users have been reported.

 

Extension of Free Community Access

 

In considering the extension of the trial to other tennis court facilities within the City, the advice provided to Council at its meeting held on 9 December 2015 (report CD04-12/14) in relation to key points for consideration remain relevant. These are as follows:

 

·    Management of existing bookings

In a number of cases there are existing annual and seasonal bookings for the courts, which will still need to be honoured by the City.

 

In extending the Free Community Access model, this report will recommend that the fees and charges for the use of the courts for existing annual and seasonal hirers be waived. However it should be noted that Administration will still request that annual and seasonal hirers book the courts with Administration as a means to enable these groups to secure court space over casual users. In this regard Administration will advise annual and seasonal hirers that they should at all times carry their booking confirmation with them and use this as proof of priority use of the courts when there is a clash with casual users. This will also be noted on the marketing material and signage which will be generated for the trial period.

 

As previously noted, Council should be aware that the application of the Free Community Access model may result in increased use of the courts by organised groups, including commercial operators, either from the area or relocating from other areas.

 


 

 

·    Security 

Given that the courts included in the extended Free Community Access model will remain open to the public on an ongoing basis, there will need to be an increased frequency of inspection of the courts to ensure that any damage that may occur is reported and rectified as quickly as possible. This is particularly important for courts which have regular bookings.

 

·    Measurement and Evaluation

The frequency of measurement of usage levels of the courts included in the extended Free Community Access model will continue to occur via the use of time-lapse cameras, however the frequency of measurement will be reduced as a result of the increased number of sites. It is envisaged that measurement of usage levels will occur at each location at least once in the first twelve months, after which the need for continued measurement will be reviewed.

 

·    Lighting

The lighting control systems for the courts will need to be reviewed to ensure access on an ongoing basis. It is envisaged that any required changes will be less than $1,000 per site and will be funded via existing operating budgets.

 

·    Promotion

As per the Free Community Access trial, it is proposed to promote the extended model via the City's website, Wanneroo Link, signage at the courts, direct communication to user groups from the respective areas who are on the City's existing booking database and mail out to residents within an immediate proximity of the courts.

 

·    Review  

This report will recommend that the extended Free Community Access model be reviewed and reported to Council after 12 months, to provide an indication of the success or otherwise of the expanded model.

 

·    Management of Club Facilities

In addition to the above points, consideration will also need to be given to the management of Club facilities as opposed to courts which are general community use. Currently club usage occurs at the following facilities within the City:

·    Gumblossom Park, Quinns Rocks

·    Elliot Road, Wanneroo

·    Montrose Park, Girrawheen

In extending the Free Community Access model, this report will recommend that these courts be excluded and use be managed as per the City’s current booking process and Facility Hire and Use Policy. In this respect, clubs and user groups would be required to book the facility on either an annual, seasonal or casual basis (as is currently the case) and to pay the relevant fee (noting the City’s subsidised use policy provisions).

 

The rationale for excluding these facilities from the extension of the Free Community Access model is based on:

 

·    The need for the City to actively manage these facilities given the level of use by Clubs;

·    The need to maintain these facilities to a higher standard based on club usage and respective competition requirements; and

·    The need to ensure the ongoing security of the courts and supporting amenities.

 

If these facilities were included in the extended Free Community Access model, it would be difficult for Administration to ensure priority of access for clubs and the ongoing maintenance of the facilities to the required standard.  

 

As a result of the above, this report will recommend that the extension of the Free Community Access model apply to the following courts (Attachment 1):

 

·    Spinifex Courts, Yanchep

·    Kingsbridge Park, Butler

·    Delamare Park, Banksia Grove*

·    Wanneroo Showgrounds, Wanneroo*

·    Hudson Park, Girrawheen.

 

Note * - Wanneroo Showground courts are currently open to the public due to existing court condition, while the Banksia Grove courts remain open due to vandalism issues that result from the courts being secured.

 

The table below outlines the current level of use of the courts, based on total hours for the financial year to date (1 July 2014 to 31 March 2015).

Risk Management Considerations

Policy Implications

The Facility Hire and Use Policy is the main policy which governs the management of use of the City's facilities and reserves. In this respect, the trial aligns with the fair play provisions within the policy in relation to:

 

"The City strives for improved fairness and equity in facility and service delivery with the goal of maximising community use. It encourages positive user attitudes and assists in the regulation of facility use."

 

However, the trial is contrary to the policy as it relates to management of use on that basis that:

 

"The use of a facility on either a casual or annual basis without expressed permission of the City is forbidden and will result in future requests for the hire of City facilities being refused."

 

In respect to the City's Schedule of Fees and Charges, the trial is contrary to the requirement for Administration to, at all times, apply the relevant fee as outlined within the adopted schedule.

Financial Implications

Financial implications of extending the trial include the loss of income and potential increased operating costs relating to tennis net damage. As a lot of cost is currently expended to rectify fence damage due to unauthorised access, it is difficult to quantify how much will be saved on one hand and spent on the other.

 

It is envisaged that costs associated with lighting, signage and advertising of the extended trial period, can be accommodated within existing operational budgets.

Recommendation

That Council:-

1.   APPROVES the extension of the free use tennis court trial, to all City managed tennis courts within the City, with the exception of courts containing established tennis clubs based at: Gumblossom Park, Quinns Rocks; Elliot Road, Wanneroo; and Montrose Park, Girrawheen; and

2.   APPROVES by ABSOLUTE MAJORITY the waiver of fees and charges as per the adopted 2014/15 and proposed 2015/16 Schedule of Fees and Charges for the use of the City's tennis courts as per 1) above, for the extended free use trial of tennis courts.

During January a mid-year review of the budget was undertaken, which involved assessing December 2014 year-to-date figures against budget and projecting expected year-end results for all operating accounts and capital projects (alongside the current year corporate business plan actions).  The review was endorsed and adopted by Council at its meeting on Tuesday 31 March 2015 and as such has been reflected in this report.

 


 

Income Statement (Refer to Attachment 1)

Net Result                                                                     $ million

Year to Date Actual                                                      73.546 

Year to Date Budget Estimate                                      62.734

Year to Date Variance                                                +10.812 (+17%)

Full Year Revised Budget                                             61.189

 

The following information is provided on key aspects of the year to date financial results:

Revenues                                                                     $ million

Year to Date Actual                                                    150.339

Year to Date Budget Estimate                                    149.298

Year to Date Variance                                                    1.040 (+1%)

Full Year Revised Budget                                           162.957

 

 

Expenses                                                                      $ million

Year to Date Actual                                                     102.562

Year to Date Budget Estimate                                     109.814

Year to Date Variance                                                  +7.252 (+7%)

Full Year Adopted Budget                                            166.173

 

 

Materials and Contracts

The Materials and Contracts expense category shows a variance to year to date budget of +$3.962 million (+13%).  Whilst this variance is considered material in value, it is not unusual for differing levels of expenditures to be reflected at various times of the year due to seasonal activities, hence higher levels are expected over the remainder of the financial year.  As the mid-year review has been completed, the expected expenditure is due to fall in with the budget over the coming months.  The two largest contributors to these expenses are Refuse Removal Expenses and Contract Expenses which as at February month end have year to date expenditures of $6.645 million and $10.162 million respectively, reflecting a combined variance to year to date budget of $3.194 million (+16%).

 

Utilities

The utility charges is currently below budget by $0.727 million (+14%).This is mainly due to some electricity services that have already taken place are yet to be receipted into the purchasing system in the following months.  Respective units involved have been reminded to perform system receipting on a timely manner. The main contributor to the utilities expenditure is community street lighting, as the year progresses these expenditures increase due to more street light demand from new developments being implemented. The variances are therefore anticipated to reduce throughout the year however; it is dependent on the service provider capturing these increases in a timely manner.

Other Revenue and Expenses                                     $ million

(Excluding Contributions of Physical Assets)

Revenue in excess of expenses:

Year to Date Actual                                                      25.769

Year to Date Budget Estimate                                      23.250

Year to Date Variance                                                  +2.520 (+11%)

Full Year Revised Budget                                             34.405

Town Planning Scheme (TPS) Expenses

TPS Expenses as at February month end continue to reflect low activities being $0.807 million YTD, representing a +62% variance (+$1.338 million) to year to date budget.  These expenditures relate to specific costs and land purchases within the Scheme location and have no impact on municipal accounts. 

 


 

Contributions of Physical Assets                                  $ million

Year to Date Actual                                                        0.000

Year to Date Budget Estimate                                        0.000

Year to Date Variance                                                    0.000 (0%)

Full Year Adopted Budget                                            30.000

Each year developers hand over physical assets such as parklands, roads and pathways to the City, for its ongoing management and control.  These assets can be of considerable value and are currently being finalised and booked to the accounts. 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 results, but can have a significant impact on future servicing, maintenance and renewal costs needing to be factored into the Long Term Financial Plan.  The scale of the value of assets handed over to the City in the past has generally aligned closely to the % increase in the number of new Lots created during the financial year. 

 

Balance Sheet (Refer to Attachment 2)

Capital Works Program

The current status of the Capital Works Program as of 28 February 2015 is summarised below by Program Category:-

 

 

The table above notes a total Annual Budget for the capital works program as $74.689 million.  As at the end of February $25.147 million has been spent against capital works.  In addition to the actual expenditure, $15.862 million is recognised as committed. (Note: Commitments are life to date and may also relate to future financial periods).  To further progress activities additional resources will be allocated in coming months, noting that this will have no adverse effect on budgets (included within approved project budgets).  

 

To further expand on the capital works program information above, key infrastructure projects are selected to be reported on, on a regular basis, which are listed in the following table.

 

 

Investment Portfolio Summary (Refer to 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 February month end presents an overall favourable variance of +$10.812 million (+17%) to year to date budget. Operating Revenue presented a marginal favourable variance to year to date budget of +$1.040 million (+1%). Expenditures from Operations also present a favourable variance to budget of +$7.252 million (+7%) with the main contributor being Materials and Contracts (+$3.962 million).

 

During the month of February the audit for the closure of WRC was finalised by the auditors and the final service fees payable by the Cities of Joondalup and Swan were still to be agreed.

 

 

Activities within the Capital Works Program reflect expenditure levels to the period ending February 2015 increased to $25.147 million. This figure is considerably lower than the revised budget of $74.689 million however close monitoring of projects will continue through to the end of June. At present the anticipated value of carried forward projects is identified as being in the vicinity of $16.000 million.

Statutory Compliance                                                                                        

This monthly financial report complies with Section 6.4 of the Local Government Act 1995 and Regulations 33A and 34 of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations 1996.

Issue

To consider making a recommendation to the Minister of the Department of Local Government and Communities 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 as the basis for a rate 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 (UV) of the land; and

b)      Where the land is used predominantly for non-rural purposes, the gross rental value (GRV) of the land.

 

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

1.       Lots 240-264, 270-283, 347-367 & 9500 DP401401 Cooper Street, Madeley

On 23 December 2013 the City received a subdivision application for Lot 82 D27189 Cooper Street, Madeley.  The City supported the subdivision application and a letter was sent to the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) on 11 March 2014.

WAPC subsequently approved the subdivision application and Lots 240-264, 270-283, 347-367 & 9500 DP401401 Cooper Street, Madeley were created (Attachment 1 refers).

2.       Lots 432-459 & 8000 DP402314 Alexander Drive, Landsdale

On 6 December 2012 the City received a subdivision application for Lot 172 D28710 Alexander Drive, Landsdale.  The City supported the subdivision application and a letter was sent to the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) on 31 January 2013.

WAPC subsequently approved the subdivision application and Lots 432-459 & 8000 DP402314 Alexander Drive, Landsdale were created (Attachment 2 refers).

3.       Lots 501-505, 518-523 & 9020 DP402803 Queensway Road, Landsdale

On 6 December 2012 the City received a subdivision application for Lot 402 DP50945 Queensway Road, Landsdale.  The City supported the subdivision application and a letter was sent to the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) on 23 May 2013.

 

 

WAPC subsequently approved the subdivision application and Lots 501-505, 518-523 & 9020 DP402803 Queensway Road, Landsdale were created (Attachment 3 refers).

4.       Lots 506-511, 513-517 & 9021 DP402804 Queensway Road, Landsdale

WAPC subsequently approved the subdivision application and Lots 506-511, 513-517 & 9021 DP402804 Queensway Road, Landsdale were created (Attachment 4 refers).

Consultation

The Valuation of Land Rating Policy issued by the Department of Local Government and Communities in February 2015 provided guidance to all local governments stating 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.

 

With regard to the properties listed above, consultation was not considered necessary as the change in use of the properties to residential is as a result of large scale subdivisions.

 

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 of the Department of Local Government and Communities 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.

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 as the basis for a rate 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.”

 

 

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “4     Civic Leadership - Working with others to ensure the best use of our resources.

4.3    A Strong and Progressive Organisation - You will recognise the hard work and professionalism delivered by your council through your interactions and how our community is developing.

CS04-04/15       Tender for the Provision of Statutory Audit Services for a Period of Three Years

File Ref:                                              20510 – 15/119214

Responsible Officer:                           Director Corporate Strategy & Performance

Issue

To consider Tender No. 01502 for the provision of Statutory Audit Services for the following three financial years – 2014/15, 2015/16 and 2016/17.

 

Background

Section 7.3 of the Local Government Act 1995, requires a local government to appoint an auditor who is a registered company auditor or an approved auditor.

 

The term of appointment of the City’s current auditors ended following the completion of the audit for the 2013/14 financial year.  Services are therefore required for the next three years to audit the City’s financial records arising from the financial years 2014/15, 2015/16 and 2016/17.

 

The Audit and Risk Committee reviewed at its meeting of 15 April 2015 and resolved –

 

“That the Audit & Risk Committee recommends that Council ACCEPTS BY AN ABSOLUTE MAJORITY Tender No. 01502 from Grant Thornton for the provision of Statutory Audit Services for a Period of Three Financial Years – 2014/15, 2015/16 and 2016/17.”

Detail

Tender No. 01502 for the provision of Statutory Audit Services was advertised on 31 January 2015 and closed on 24 February 2015.

 

At the close of tenders, the following seven Audit firms had submitted tenders:

·        Anderson Munro and Wylie

·        Crowe Horwath

·        Grant Thornton

·        Hayes Knight WA Audit

·        Pitcher Partners

·        UHY Haines Norton

·        Walker Wayland Audit

 

Tenders were assessed against the following evaluation criteria:

·        Price for services offered – 40%.

·        Demonstrated relevant similar experience with achievement of City expectations – 40%.

·        Demonstrated allocation of sufficient resources to undertake the services – 20%.

 

A weighted scoring matrix was applied to determine the recommended tenderer.

 


 

 

Tenderer’s price to complete contract (40%)

Tenderers were requested to submit a price for services offered based on a fixed lump sum price for the provision of Statutory Audit Services.

 

The ranking of tenders on the basis of price offered from lowest to highest is as follows:

 

 

Tenderer

Fixed Lump Sum Price for Audit Services for 3 Years

UHY Haines Norton

$81,000.00

Grant Thornton

$87,000.00

Anderson Munro and Wylie

$109,500.00

Crowe Horwath

$110,250.00

Walker Wayland Audit

$115,000.00

Pitcher Partners

$117,000.00

Hayes Knight WA Audit

$165,500.00

 

The above table reflects the fixed lump sum pricing from each tenderer for the three year audit period and does not include costs for Grant Acquittals which form part of the scope of services.  The cost of each Grant Acquittal is anticipated to be in the order of $500 with exact numbers unknown at this time.  The cost of such acquittals was therefore not included in the overall price evaluation but will form part of the contracted services.

 

Demonstrated relevant similar experience with achievement of City expectations (40%)

The tenderer’s experience contained in the tender documentation was examined in order to evaluate their ability to meet the requirements of the contract.  Assessment of this criterion considered the tenderer’s previous and current experience similar to the services noted within this tender.

 

A review of the documentation submitted showed the tenderers have various levels of experience in undertaking similar audits for local governments in Western Australia.  This resulted in a ranking as follows:

Demonstrated allocation of sufficient resources to undertake the services (20%)

The tenderers’ resources contained in the tender documentation were examined in order to evaluate their capacity to manage the contract.  Assessment of this criterion considered the tenderers’ staff resources, their experience and combination of those offered to service the contract.

 

A review of the documentation submitted showed the tenderers have various levels of resources available to service the contract.  The experiences of the resources were also considered. This resulted in a ranking as follows:

Consultation

The preferred tenderer met with the Audit & Risk Committee to present their proposal and answer any questions.

Comment

Grant Thornton ranked highest against the stated evaluation criteria.  They have extensive experience with undertaking similar audits for local government clients in Western Australia, including a number of local governments of significant size for which they are the incumbent auditor, such as Cities of Perth, Joondalup, Fremantle, Belmont and Rockingham.

 

With a comprehensive dedicated local government audit team, it is proposed that they are most suited to addressing the City’s audit requirements. 

 

A standard Financial and Performance Assessment was undertaken by Corporate Scorecard on Grant Thornton. The report indicates that the entity in question has a “strong financial capacity to undertake the contract in question”.

Statutory Compliance

Tenders were invited in accordance with the requirements of Section 3.57 of the Local Government Act 1995.  The tendering procedures and evaluation complied with the requirements of Part 4 of the Local Government (Functions and General) Regulations 1996.

 

In addition, Section 7.3 of the Local Government Act 1995 provides for the appointment of auditors as follows:

 


 

 

“(1)     A local government is to, from time to time whenever such an appointment is necessary or expedient, appoint* a person, on the recommendation of the audit committee, to be its auditor.

 

*Absolute majority required

 

 (2)     The local government may appoint one or more persons as its auditor.

 

 (3)     The local government’s auditor is to be a person who is –

(a)     a registered company auditor; or

(b)     an approved auditor.”

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “4     Civic Leadership - Working with others to ensure the best use of our resources.

4.3    A Strong and Progressive Organisation - You will recognise the hard work and professionalism delivered by your council through your interactions and how our community is developing.

Risk Management Considerations

CS05-04/15       Petition - Request for Differential Rating - 76 Ridgewood Rise, Ridgewood

Issue

To consider the petition from the residents of Settlers Ridgewood Rise Lifestyle Village, 76 Ridgewood Rise, Ridgewood requesting Council’s consideration in imposing a differential rating category for the Settlers Ridgewood Rise Lifestyle Village (the Village).

 

Background

The City is aware of the concerns of the residents of the Village and the perceived inequity in the amount of rates being paid by the residents of the Village.  The City’s Manager Finance and Coordinator Rates and Accounts met with the Chairman of the Resident’s Association of Settler’s Lifestyle Village (RASLV) on 28 January 2015 to discuss the concerns of the residents of the Village.  Another meeting was held on 20 March 2015 between The Mayor, the City’s Manager Finance, the Chairman of the RASLV and other residents of the Village.

 

From discussions held it has been ascertained that the major concern is the amount of rates levied on the Village.  This Village is –

·     Owned by Settlers Co Pty Ltd on a Green Title. 

·     A development was undertaken on this property for a Lifestyle Village incorporating 240 residential units, Clubhouse with a bowling green and other facilities for exclusive use by the residents.

·     The City of Wanneroo rates the owners of the property as required under the Act, being Settlers Co Pty Ltd. 

·     The City also allows a pension/seniors rebate for eligible residents under the provision of the Rates and Charges (Rebates and Deferments) Act 1992.  As required a schedule is provided to Settlers detailing the rates levied for each unit and the applicable pension/seniors rebate.  Of the 240 units, 222 receive a 50% rebate, 12 receive a 25% rebate and 6 receive no rebate.

·     The average general rate for each unit is $1,157.00, the actual rates for each unit varies depending upon the size of the unit and the Gross Rental Valuation supplied by the Valuer General’s Office.  The average rate for each unit is lower than the minimum rate of $1,205.00 which is levied on all other residential properties in the City.  Unlike many other local governments the City includes the refuse rate in the general rate to allow pensioners to claim full rebate, the refuse rate is $395 (refuse & recycling).

·     It is understood that the residents have the rates charged through their monthly lease payments.

Detail

The City of Wanneroo differential rates on the use of the land with a differential rating category of Residential Improved being applied to properties where the majority use of the property is used for residential purposes.  Lifestyle Villages are being used for a residential purpose therefore the differential rating category of residential improved applies.

 


 

 

Under the provisions of the Act and the Differential Rating Policy issued by the Department of Local Government and Communities in August 2013, the City has to ensure a consistent approach in applying the rating category.  The Differential Rating Policy also sets out principles and process used in creating new differential rating categories.

 

Under the City's current Rating Strategy the following rating categories were adopted by Council as part of the 2014/15 budget process:

 

·     Residential Improved

·     Residential Vacant

·     Commercial Improved

·     Commercial Vacant

·     Industrial Improved

·     Industrial Vacant

·     Rural and Mining Improved

·     Rural and Mining Vacant

Consultation

The City has advised the owner, Settlers Co Pty Ltd, about this petition. It is noted that Settlers Co Pty Ltd has no involvement with this petition.  The City has also contacted the Water Corporation to enquire if they have any differential rating for Lifestyle Villages.  Water Corporation has confirmed that they do not have any special rates for Lifestyle Villages.  The rates levied are the same as for a normal residential property.

 

WALGA have been working on issues relating to housing for the aged and implications for local government as recently as August 2014.

Comment

The residents of the Village are not deemed to be the ‘owners’ of the land as defined under the Local Government Act 1995.  The rates are to be levied on the owners of the land and in the case of the Village the residents are not the owners.

 

Under the provisions of the Local Government Act 1995 the City is unable to individually rate each unit in the Village and therefore cannot apply a minimum rate to each unit.  The Village has to be rated as a whole.  The Valuer General’s Office supplies the City with the Gross Rental Value applicable to the Village in its entirety.  This is the valuation that will be applied to the property at the State Administration Tribunal if an objection is lodged.  The Valuer General’s Office also supplies the City with a listing of the Gross Rental Valuations applicable to each unit which is utilised by the City to enable the pension/seniors rebate to be granted under the provisions of the Rates and Charges (Rebates and Deferments) Act 1992.

 

Accordingly, since the Village is a privately owned property by itself in its entirety, all the roads, kerbs, street lightings within the village, the bowling green, the open space with a Gazebo are parts of the property owned by Settler’s Pty Ltd hence it is the responsibilities of Settler’s Pty Ltd to maintain.  The City has performed some research and noted that the cost associated with the maintenance of the internal roads and street lighting is insignificant when compared to the percentage of works and services provided by the City of Wanneroo district.

 

The level of service within the private property is set by the Village and is therefore difficult to compare with standard City services.

 

 

 

The City currently rates other Lifestyle Villages within the City of Wanneroo being used only for a residential purpose on the differential rating category of residential improved.

 

The residents of the Village are provided with the same level of works and services, outside the Village, as all other ratepayers being rated on a differential rating category of residential improved.  These include:-

·     Collection and Disposal of Residential Refuse

·     Roads

·     Street Lighting

·     Parks and Gardens

·     Libraries

·     Aged Care

·     Dog and Other Animal Control

·     Emergency Services Support

·     Bush Fire Control

·     Recreational Facilities

·     Storm Water Drainage

·     Assistance to Community Groups

 

Research undertaken with other local government authorities in Western Australia (WA) to investigate their approach to rating of Lifestyle Villages did not highlight any different rating approaches. The City has previously carried out this research in October 2014.  Further research was performed on 22 April 2015.  This research has been performed by obtaining a listing of the Lifestyle Villages in WA and then checking the budget document from each WA Council concerned.  It should be noted that not all Councils in WA have Lifestyle Villages in their boundaries.

 

It is noted that 23 WA Councils, as indicated below, have lifestyle villages within their boundaries and that all 23 WA Councils rate the lifestyle villages under Residential Improved and do not have a separate rating category for any of the lifestyle villages:

 

City of Joondalup

City of Mandurah

City of Stirling

City of Armadale

City of Melville

City of Swan

City of Canning

City of Gosnells

Shire of Mundaring

City of Rockingham

City of Cockburn

City of Busselton

City of Albany

Shire of Kalamunda

City of Perth

City of Belmont

City of Vincent

Town of Bassendean

 

When comparing the rating of Lifestyle Villages in Western Australian to rating of Lifestyle Villages in other States consideration should be given to the different legislation governing those states, the different methods of valuing the properties and the frequency of issuing rates.  These factors vary from State to State so therefore it is very difficult to compare like with like.

 

Consideration has taken place with regard to a differential rating category for Lifestyle Villages in reference to the Department of Local Government and Communities’ Rating Policy -Differential Rates (s.6.33), Attachment 1 refers. This policy highlights five principles to guide Local Governments when assessing the appropriateness of differential rates, which are:

·     Objectivity

·     Fairness and equity

·     Consistency

·     Transparency

·     Administration and efficiency

 

Below is a direct extraction from the policy:

 

“A differential rate occurs when categories of property within the UV or GRV land valuation methods are rated differently. The imposition of differential rates represents a conscious decision by a council to redistribute the rate burden in its district by imposing a higher impost on some ratepayers and a lower impost on others.

 

This should follow the Benefit Principle – the concept that there should be some relationship between the rates paid and the benefits received.  This does not mean that rates should equal benefits, but it is expected that those bearing the higher rate burden through the imposition of differential rating are receiving greater benefits from council activities.”

 

In view of the fairness and equity impact on the wider community as a whole, Administration is proposing that the owner of this village receives the same benefits as the other owners under the Residential Improved category hence recommend that a different rating category for this village is not appropriate.

 

One of the concerns raised in the petition submission (Attachment 2) was that the total rates that is collected for this particular site might be far exceeding what is possible on a similar site because of the residential density, especially when comparing to Figure 2 of the petition submission

 

Administration has performed a detailed review in this regard and can confirm that the residential density coding of 76 Ridgewood Rise, Ridgewood and the area identified in Figure 2 of the petition submission (Attachment 2), are both coded Residential R20.

 

The density coding relates to the minimum and average site area per dwelling/lot as specified in the Residential Design Codes (R-Codes).  Although the density coding is the same for both sites it is difficult to make an exact comparison between the sites.

 

At the time of development of the village and the area identified in Figure 2, a previous version of the R-Codes were applicable in which the average site area for an R20 was 500m2. It should also be noted that the R-Codes does not prescribe a maximum site area.

 

 

 

 

Based on this standard R20 site area requirements the village could have only accommodated 216 dwellings.  However, the site accommodates 240 dwellings as an aged person's accommodation is permitted a one-third concession to the site area under the
R-Codes.  Further, the village site has not been subdivided and includes internal private access roads and other recreational facilities.  It should be noted that the internal roads in the Village are not the same width as required for a normal road reserve which is applicable in a standard development. All the 240 dwellings have the same access to all the services and facilities that the City provides.  The higher number of dwellings in the Village allows for a greater number of residents.  These residents have access to all the works and services provided by the City which include domestic and recycling waste removal, community and library services.

 

In comparison Figure 2 comprises of a typical residential area in which lots that has been subdivided into individual lots all achieving a minimum of 500m2, with many lots being 700m2 – 900m2 in sizes.  This area also includes road reserves which are owned by the crown.  As indicated in the petition submission (Attachment 2) this area accommodated 132 residential lots.

 

This indicates that although the residential density for both sites may be the same, they have been developed in different manners and therefore cannot be directly compared.

 

Furthermore, it should be noted that if the rate was reduced for this village by establishing a lower rate in a dollar Residential Improved rating category, the benefit goes directly to the owner of the property i.e. Settlers Co. Pty Ltd and the City cannot guarantee this reduction would be on passed to the residents by the owners of the Village.  The City does not have any powers to ensure that the rate reduction is on passed.  It would depend upon the written agreement that the resident has with the village owner as to what that states. This would then be an issue between the residents and the Village owner that the City would not get involved in.

Enquiries have been made with the Seniors Housing Centre, Department of Commerce regarding the payment of rates by residents of lifestyle villages or retirement villages.  Detailed below is the outcome of the query:

·     There are 2 types of 'villages' catering to the over 45s / 50s depending on the scenario: i) lifestyle villages or ii) retirement villages.

·     It is noted that Settlers Ridgewood Retirement lifestyle village is considered as a retirement village (not a lifestyle village) as it is governed by the Retirement Villages Act (RVA) 1992 and Retirement Villages Regulations 1992.  The residents, in this particular case, would enter into a lease arrangement with the owner of the property.

·     3 types of fees and charges are usually charged/levied by the owner of the retirement village:

·     In-going/entry payment called 'premium';

·     Recurrent charges that cover the operating costs and expenses of the village; and

·     Departure/exit fees and charges.

·     It is noted that there is no specific mention of rates in RVA or its regulation.  The charging of rates from the enquiry with Department of Commerce is that it forms part of the rent charged.  Rent falls under the definition of 'recurrent charges' in the RVA as any amount payable by a resident to the administering body of a retirement village on a recurrent basis.  

 

 

·     Recurrent charges are particular to each village depending on its business model/structure.  These charges are not regulated and may increase depending on what is in the budget of the village. 

·     The Department of Commerce advises that retirement villages work on a 'cost recovery basis' and if rates are charged, it will be disclosed in the retirement village's budget and the rates will be apportioned in accordance with the number of residents in the village.

·     Flowing from this explanation, it goes to reason then that if the City offers a reduction in council rates to this retirement village, that reduction would have to be passed on – based on the cost recovery rationale.

·     However, since the rent is not regulated, the City would not be bound or expected to ensure that the reduction offered will be passed on to the residents.

·     The onus lies with the residents of the retirement village to ensure that they only pay what is just and fair and be guided by the Fair Trading (Retirement Villages Code) Regulations 2015.

In relation to the process to establish a new differential rating category for the village, it can form part of the budget adoption process.  If the proposed differential rate applicable to the village is more than 50% lower than the highest differential rating category, then in accordance to the Local Government Act 1995 Section 6.35, application to the Minister to seek for approval is required.

Based on all of the additional information, it is clear that there are a range of complex issues to consider if a new differential rate category is to be established and Administration therefore recommends that a Committee be formed to investigate the issue thoroughly.

Statutory Compliance

Part 6, Division 6 of the Local Government Act 1995 (the Act) and Part 5 of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations 1996 provides the head of power for the levying of local government rates.  The legislation is quite prescriptive in its application, with the following aspects of particular note:

 

·        Except as provided for in Section 6.26, all land within a district is rateable land (S6.26);

·        In order to make up the 'budget deficiency' a local government is to impose a general rate which may be imposed either uniformly or differentially.  A local government may also impose a specified area rate, a minimum rate and a service charge (S6.32);

·        A local government may impose a differential general rate (DGR) according to land zoning, land use, whether the land is vacant or not, or a combination of each characteristic (S6.33);

·        No DGR in each category (UV or GRV) is to be more than twice the lowest DGR, unless approved by the Minister (S6.33);

·        The amount shown in the Annual Budget as being the amount estimated to be yielded by the general rate is not to vary by +/- 10% of the budget deficiency, i.e. should essentially be a balanced budget (S6.34);

·        The local government can impose differential minimum rates, however it is not to be applied to more than 50% of the properties with a  district or within each category (S6.35);

 

 

·        A minimum rate is to be applied separately for each of the following categories (S6.35):

a)      to land rated on Gross Rental Value (GRV);

b)      to land rated on Unimproved Value (UV); and

c)      to each differential rating category where a differential rate is imposed.

·        If a separate DGR is imposed on the basis of vacant land status, a separate minimum rate can be imposed with the approval of the Minister not in accordance with the 50% requirement (S6.35);

·        A lesser minimum charge can be applied to not more than 50% of the properties on minimum rates (within the district or within each category).

 

Other relevant legislation to this matter is the Retirement Villages Act 1992 and Retirement Villages Regulations 1992 and the Rates and Charges (Rebates and Deferments) Act 1992 which are available to view online at the State Law Publishers website www.slp.wa.gov.au.

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “4     Civic Leadership - Working with others to ensure the best use of our resources.

4.3    A Strong and Progressive Organisation - You will recognise the hard work and professionalism delivered by your council through your interactions and how our community is developing.

Risk Management Considerations

The City undertakes long term financial planning and levies rates to enable the provision of services and the management of assets for the community.

Policy Implications

The City is currently developing its Strategic Budget Policy and associated Rating Strategy.  This work will be continuing during the year in preparation for the development of the 2016/17 Budget.

Financial Implications

If a differential rating category for Lifestyle Villages were implemented, then this would have to be imposed on all Lifestyle Villages within the boundaries of the City of Wanneroo which would result in a reduction in rate revenue.

 

The City currently rates 4 Lifestyle Villages, 1 with a Nursing Home and Independent Living Units and 3 that have Independent Living Units only.

Issue

To consider a proposal for the setting of the rate in the dollar for the differential rating categories to be applied to the Draft Budget for the 2015/16 Financial Year.

 

Background

Differential general rating was adopted by the City of Wanneroo at the Special Meeting of Joint Commissioners on 31 August 1999.  At this time it was determined that the differential general rating categories were to be based on the use of the land.

 

Over time the differential categories have been amended to reflect the change in the use of the land, amended legislation and the opportunities for ratepayers to maximise participation in the State Government Pensioner Rate Rebate Scheme.

 

The Department of Local Government and Communities have also instigated a compliance audit in relation to the levying of rates and charges, providing several policy documents and guides for local governments to utilise in the process.  It is imperative that the City complies with the legislation as not doing so will make the levying of the rates and service charges unlawful. 

Detail

The City currently has the following differential rating categories:

 

Gross Rental Valuation

Residential Improved

Residential Vacant

Commercial Improved

Commercial Vacant

Industrial Improved

Industrial Vacant

 

Unimproved Valuation

Residential Improved

Residential Vacant

Commercial Improved

Commercial Vacant

Industrial Improved

Industrial Vacant

Rural and Mining Improved

Rural and Mining Vacant

 

It is recognised that the categories of Commercial and Industrial should be rated the same as there is no distinction between the two categories on the impact to or the level of works and services provided by the City.

 

 

To alleviate this anomaly a practice was implemented in 2014/15 to reduce the parity between the categories of Commercial and Industrial with a view to amalgamating these two categories into one Commercial/Industrial effective from the 2017/18 financial year.  This aligns with the next Gross Rental Revaluation which is due effective 1 July 2017.

 

A comparison table has been provided detailing the rate in the dollar for 2014/15 and the proposed rate in the dollar for 2015/16.

One important factor associated with the rate setting, is the imposition of the minimum rate, which can make a material difference on the estimated rate yield from each category.  Essentially, the purpose of setting a minimum rate is to establish a base cast of services made available by a local government to property owners, irrespective of valuation.  Whilst the Act establishes limits on the percentage of properties to be minimum rated, an optimised minimum rate has the potential of delivering a higher yield by category from a lower rate-in-the-dollar.

Comment

The differential rates and minimum rates that have been recommended deliver an overall rate revenue increase of 4.91%.  The majority of the categories will have a general rate (rate in a dollar) increase of 4.6% which is in line with feedback from the Budget Workshops held to date.  However, the Industrial Improved and Industrial Vacant categories will have a higher increase due to the strategy to rate these categories contiguously by the 2017/18 financial year.

 

The Residential Vacant category will only receive a 0.93% rate increase overall which is due to the number of rateable properties which fall into the minimum rate category.  A local government is only allowed to rate not more than 50% of properties on the minimum rate in any one category.  As a result the rate in the dollar has increased by the 4.9% however the minimum rate has decreased from $630 for the 2014/15 financial year to the proposed $617 for the 2015/16 financial year.

 

A different rate in the dollar can be used for levying general rates from that rate in the dollar that has been advertised and adopted in the budget.  The information needs to be disclosed to the ratepayer at the time that the annual rates notice is issued and giving a reason why.

Statutory Compliance

Part 6, Division 6 of the Local Government Act 1995 (the Act) and Part 5 of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations 1996 provides the head of power for the levying of local government rates.  The legislation is quite prescriptive in its application, with the following aspects of particular note:

·     In order to make up the 'budget deficiency' a local government is to impose a general rate which may be imposed either uniformly or differentially.  A local government may also impose a specified area rate, a minimum rate and a service charge (S6.32);


 

 

·     A local government may impose a differential general rate (DGR) according to land zoning, land use, whether the land is vacant or not, or a combination of each characteristic (S6.33);

·     No DGR in each category (UV or GRV) is to be more than twice the lowest DGR, unless approved by the Minister (S6.33);

·     The amount shown in the Annual Budget as being the amount estimated to be yielded by the general rate is not to vary by +/- 10% of the budget deficiency, i.e should essentially be a balanced budget (S6.34);

·     The local government can impose differential minimum rates, however it is not to be applied to more than 50% of the properties with a  district or within each category (S6.35);

·     A minimum rate is to be applied separately for each of the following categories (S6.35):

a)      to land rated on Gross Rental Value (GRV);

b)      to land rated on Unimproved Value (UV); and

c)      to each differential rating category where a differential rate is imposed.

·     If a separate DGR is imposed on the basis of vacant land status, a separate minimum rate can be imposed with the approval of the Minister not in accordance with the 50% requirement (S6.35);

·     A lesser minimum charge can be applied to not more than 50% of the properties on minimum rates (within the district or within each category).

 

Furthermore, in accordance with section 6.36 of the Act, Council is required to give local public notice of its intention to levy differential general rates. 

“S6.36. Local government to give notice of certain rates

(1)     Before imposing any differential general rates or a minimum payment applying to a differential rate category under section 6.35(6)(c) a local government is to give local public notice of its intention to do so.

(2)     A local government is required to ensure that a notice referred to in subsection (1) is published in sufficient time to allow compliance with the requirements specified in this section and section 6.2(1).

(3)     A notice referred to in subsection (1) — 

(a)    may be published within the period of 2 months preceding the commencement of the financial year to which the proposed rates are to apply on the basis of the local government’s estimate of the budget deficiency;

(b)    is to contain — 

(i)   details of each rate or minimum payment the local government intends to impose;

(ii)  an invitation for submissions to be made by an elector or a ratepayer in respect of the proposed rate or minimum payment and any related matters within 21 days (or such longer period as is specified in the notice) of the notice; and

(iii) any further information in relation to the matters specified in subparagraphs (i) and (ii) which may be prescribed; and


 

 

 

(c)    is to advise electors and ratepayers of the time and place where a document describing the objects of, and reasons for, each proposed rate and minimum payment may be inspected.

(4)     The local government is required to consider any submissions received before imposing the proposed rate or minimum payment with or without modification.

(5)     Where a local government — 

 

(a)    in an emergency, proposes to impose a supplementary general rate or specified area rate under section 6.32(3)(a); or

(b)    proposes to modify the proposed rates or minimum payments after considering any submissions under subsection (4),

it is not required to give local public notice of that proposed supplementary general rate, specified area rate, modified rate or minimum payment."

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “4     Civic Leadership - Working with others to ensure the best use of our resources.

Financial Implications

The application of differential rating is about apportioning the rate revenue that is required between different categories of property.  There are no budget implications from just applying differential rating.  The City could derive exactly the same total revenue by applying a general rate to all categories of property.  The intention with proposing a differential rate however is to maintain the general proportion of rate revenue derived from each property category.

Issue

To consider the review of two Council policies in accordance with the City's Policy and Procedure Framework requirements. 

 

Background

Council policies are adopted by Council for the purpose of ensuring that the City meets its strategic objectives. Incorporated into all Council policies is a scheduled review date to ensure that policies remain current and that Elected Members are provided with a timely opportunity to review them. 

Detail

The review of Council policies considers:

 

1.       the appropriateness of the policy in regards to updated legislation;

2.       the City’s changing community;

3.       any variations which may have occurred in implementing the policy;

This policy had been updated with minor administrative amendments including:

 

a)      updating the template in accordance with the requirements of the current framework;

b)      adding additional information to include bins for ‘dog poo’ bags, where these facilities are identified throughout the City; and

 

c)      actioning the resolution set out in Councillor Zappa’s Motion on Notice adopted at the 03 February 2015 Council Meeting, Item No. MN03-02/15 as follows:-

Issue

To consider the City of Wanneroo’s submission to the Office of the Electoral Distribution Commissioner (the Commission) regarding a review of the State electoral boundaries in Western Australia (the Review) in preparation for the next State general election in March 2017.

 

Background

The Commission has advised that it has appointed three Electoral Distribution Commissioners to undertake the review which is to commence on 30 March 2015, with new boundaries finalised by late November.

 

In considering where to place electoral boundaries, the Commissioners must ensure that the number of electors in a district falls within the range of plus or minus 10% of the average district enrolment at 9 March 2015, being the date two years after the last State general election.

 

The Commissioners also consider matters such as:

 

·    community of interest;

·    land use patterns;

·    means of travel and distance from Perth; and

·    existing local government boundaries.

 

The boundaries of most districts are likely to change due to changes in population that impact on each local government area. Changes in neighbouring districts and local government areas may also have a flow-on impact.

 

The Commissioners will also provide some observations about those districts whose elector numbers are likely to force boundary changes. These observations will be available on the Commissions website on 30 March 2015.

Detail

The primary purpose of the review is to ensure that the number of electors within electorates remain within an acceptable range.

 

The Commission has provided the following timeline.  A more detailed timetable is provided at Attachment 1.

 

March – April 2015

Phase 1

Preliminary Observations released. Written suggestions invited.

May 2015

Phase 2

Written suggestions published and a second opportunity to comment.

July 2015

Phase 3

Proposed boundaries released - one last opportunity to comment or lodge any objections to those proposals.

November 2015

 

Final boundaries released

March 2017

 

Electoral boundaries will apply at the 2017 State election on 11 March 2017

Consultation

No consultation was undertaken as the information utilised to prepare the submission is based on the consultation undertaken during (and information obtained) the Ward Boundary and Representation Review.

Comment

The City of Wanneroo has drafted a proposal in response to the Commission’s request for submissions as shown at Attachment 2.

 

Reviewing electoral boundaries is necessary to preserve the democratic principle of ‘one vote, one value’.  Each electorate should ideally contain approximately equal numbers of enrolled electors in the metropolitan area.  This principle is reflected in a legislative requirement that electoral districts should not vary by more than 10% above or below the Average District Enrolment (ADE).  The exception to this is in remote areas where the legislation recognises that to meet the ADE it would be necessary to create districts that are so large in area that effective representation would be extremely difficult. 

 

Over time, the number of electors in each district is bound to change as populations grow or decline. Even where the number of electors in a given district increases, the rate of growth in other districts may be more marked.  For this reason, Western Australian electoral law requires a distribution or division of state electoral boundaries to take place as soon as practicable after the date that is two years after a State General Election.  The 2015 distribution will redraw the State electoral boundaries to ensure that the number of enrolled electors for each electorate remain within the statutory limits.”  Extract from the Commissions Fact Sheet.

 

The fact sheet quoted above has been included at Attachment 3 for further information.

Issue

To consider requesting Administration to finalise the draft Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Strategy.

 

Background

The City’s Strategic Community Plan 2013/14 to 2023/24 includes a strategy to “Minimise  impacts of climate change”.  One of the City’s actions within the City’s 4 year Corporate Business Plan is to prepare a Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Strategy (CCAMS).

The success indicator is for the draft strategy to be prepared by 31 December 2014 with implementation as per the strategy.

Detail

It is my understanding that the draft CCAMS will identify the key impacts of climate change on the City and the risks that these effects present to the City.

Consultation

I would like the draft CCAMS to be presented to the Environmental Advisory Committee, Council Forum and then Council to consider adopting the Strategy for public consultation.  Following the public consultation, the draft CCAMS should then be presented to Council for final adoption.

Comment

The preparation of a draft CCAMS is an important strategic plan that will guide the City in its climate change activities.  The Strategy has the purpose of committing the City to mitigation strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to minimise the severity of climate change.  The draft CCAMS will also guide the City to implement adaptation strategies to minimise the risk to the community from extreme weather events, coastal storm surge and other climate related risks.

 

The City has already experienced the effects of climate change at Quinns Rocks, where a serious storm surge event resulted in the City spending significant unbudgeted expenditure on coastal protection works.  It is important that the City prepares this document as soon as possible to address climate change in the City and it is therefore requested that the draft CCAMS be presented to the June 23 Council Meeting.

Statutory Compliance

Nil

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “1     Environment - A Healthy and sustainable natural and built environment

1.1    Environmentally Friendly - You will be part of a community that has a balance of environmentally friendly development and conservation areas for future generations to enjoy

Risk Management Considerations

Climate change has a number of risks that have the potential to impact on the City if not addressed and appropriately managed. The finalisation of the draft CCAMS is an important component in addressing these risks.

Financial Implications

Nil

Voting Requirements

Simple Majority

 

Recommendation

That Council REQUESTS Administration to present the draft Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Strategy to Council at its Meeting on 23 June 2015 to consider adopting the draft Strategy for the purposes of seeking public comment.

 

 

 

Administration Comment

Administration had prepared a draft CCAMS by December 2014 following a number of internal workshops. The draft has been refined in the first quarter of 2015 and it is intended that it be presented to the Environmental Advisory Committee (EAC) for input prior to finalising the draft. It is then intended to be presented to Council Forum and either the June or July Council Meeting for consideration.

The timing for presentation to a Council Meeting is dependent on the EAC availability and Council Forum schedule and the detail of comments made at those meetings.

Issue

To consider requesting the Mayor to write to the Federal Minister for Communication to prioritise the installation of the National Broadband Infrastructure in Landsdale.

 

Background

The National Broadband Network (NBN) is an Australia wide project to upgrade the existing fixed line phone and internet network infrastructure. The NBN has a long-term roll out program for delivery of broadband infrastructure in Australia. Planning for the roll-out occurs in three year increments. The current roll-out plan is from 1 April 2013 to 30 June 2016, there are no publically available details of the roll-out plan available after this date.

Detail

The following table sourced shows the areas within the City of Wanneroo that are included in the rollout plan between 1 April 2013 and 30 June 2016.

Existing and Planned NBN Roll-Out in Landsdale

 

Consultation

I am aware Mayor Tracey Roberts on behalf of the City has recently written to Hon Malcolm Turnbull MP, Minister for Communication, Hon Christian Porter MP, Federal Member for Pearce and Mr Luke Simpkins, Federal Member for Cowan to bring to their attention the ongoing issues City of Wanneroo residents are facing regarding the lack of accessibility to ADSL broadband infrastructure. This correspondence particularly focused on issues in Two Rocks and Mariginiup regarding the lack of access to ADSL broadband ports available to residents and the high cost of wireless broadband.

Comment

It is requested that all the residents in Landsdale be prioritised for the NBN roll out and that Mayor Tracey Roberts write to the Federal Minister for Communications, on behalf of the City requesting that NBN infrastructure in Landsdale be prioritised. This request stems from an issue raised by residents regarding a section of Landsdale, south Kingsway Rd, where residents are unable to access any form of ADSL broadband infrastructure.

Strategic Implications

Recommendation

That Council Requests the Mayor to write to the Minister for Communications, Hon. Malcolm Turnbull, requesting that the prioritisation of NBN infrastructure in Landsdale.

 

 

Administration Comment

Administration is supportive of a letter being sent by the Mayor on behalf of the City to the Federal Minister for Communication to prioritise NBN rollout. However rather than requesting priority for Landsdale only, it is recommended that this letter request priority consideration for the whole of the City including employment and residential areas rather than a specific suburb by suburb approach. This is reflective of the size, scale and ongoing growth in the City.

In addition, Administration recommends the letter also reiterate’s the City’s support to ensure all new developments have early provision of telecommunications broadband infrastructure through Recommendation 6 in the 'Independent cost-benefit analysis of broadband and review of regulation' Report released in August 2014 which states:

Recommendation 6: Nothing should prevent a developer from requesting any provider (whether it be NBN Co or some other provider) to supply infrastructure in, and to service, their estate. The Government should create a fair and effective market for this work by implementing the following arrangements:

a)       the costs of provision of broadband telecommunications infrastructure in new developments should be borne by developers and customers through connection charges, thereby facilitating competition in the supply of these services;

 

b)       providers servicing new developments should have freedom in setting their charges for developers and connection charges for customers; NBN Co’s charges should be competitively neutral and established through its ACCCapproved broadband connection service undertaking; and

 

c)       to ensure developers meet the cost of providing telecommunications infrastructure, the Commonwealth should use Council of Australian Government processes to secure changes to State and Territory planning laws to require the provision of such infrastructure as a condition of development approval and occupancy; the Government should also further explore its ability to legislate to achieve the same outcome.

 

The previous letter to the Federal Minister for Communication on 20 February 2015 conveyed the City’s support for this recommendation.

Council has employed Cardno’s to undertake the Quinns Study, which includes 3 stages to achieve the following objectives:

 

The key objectives for the Stage 1:

-     Provide a succinct summary of all relevant key events and available studies conducted to date including historical information gathered from community representatives;

-     Provide an update of the Cardno 2012 coastal processes assessment based on the extended study area and recently collected data (photographic monitoring, metocean data, beach profiles and hydrographic surveys);

-     Develop calibrated numerical models to simulate wave conditions, hydrodynamics and sediment transport over the study area;

-     Identify design criteria for detailed design;

-     Obtain a detailed understanding of cross shore and longshore sediment transport during storm conditions and over typical summer and winter weather patterns; and

-     Consider all potential coastal management options and identify a shortlist (minimum of 4 options) for concept design and further assessment.

 

The key objectives of the Stage 2:

-     Develop conceptual layouts and design for a minimum of 4 coastal management options based on the recommendations from the Stage 1 report;

-     Optimise conceptual layouts and assess the impacts on sediment transport and shoreline evolution for both winter and summer scenarios;

-     Conduct a Multi Criteria Analysis (MCA) Workshop with members of the CRG to identify a preferred option for detailed design.

 

The objectives of the Stage 3:

-     Develop a detailed design of the preferred coastal management option recommend in the MCA workshop. Design deliverables should be of a sufficient detail to allow for implementation of the works based on drawings and specifications provided.

Detail

The Quinns study Stage 1 report will be received in late April, 2015. Following Council consideration, Stage 2 will be undertaken from May to August 2015. Stage 3 is planned to take place from November 2015 to February 2016.

Consultation

Comment

Technical, localised and current modelling is necessary to accurately determine the feasibility of a tidal or pumped pool.  There is an opportunity to utilise the work being done in the Quinns study currently being undertaken by Cardno to provide a more technical and expert study on the feasibility of a pool at this location. 

 

Additionally it is worthwhile for consideration to be given to the inclusion of a tidal or pumped pool in developing the conceptual layouts and designs for coastal management options as per the objectives of the Quinns study.

 

An opportunity exists to consider a pumped or tidal pool through the Quinns study currently being completed by Cardno. The result of Stage 1 of the Quinns Study is due at the end of April and then additional work could be considered as part of the scope of works in Part 2.  Additional funding should be considered to provide this outcome.

Strategic Implications

The proposal aligns with the following objective within the Strategic Community Plan 2013 – 2023:

 “1     Environment - A Healthy and sustainable natural and built environment

1.1    Environmentally Friendly - You will be part of a community that has a balance of environmentally friendly development and conservation areas for future generations to enjoy

Risk Management Considerations

Nil

Financial Implications

No budget has been identified for the investigation of a tidal pool as part of the Quinns study and consideration will need to be given to a new allocation of funding.

Recommendation

That Council:-

1.       CONSIDERS the inclusion of a feasibility study for a tidal or pumped pool to be added to the scope of works included as part of the Quinns Beach Long Term Coastal Management Study and

2.       LISTS $20,000 funding in the draft 2015/2016 annual budget for consideration by Council.

 

Administration Comment

Cardno has commenced the Quinns Beach Long Term Coastal Management Study in accordance with the previously agreed scope of works. The result of Stage 1 of the Quinns Study is due at the end of April and this is shortly after intended to be presented to a Council Forum.  Initial feedback from Cardno includes very high level advice regarding a pool and states that the most appropriate location, if anywhere, would be at the southern end of Quinns Beach, however it is unlikely that this structure would provide any benefits to coastal protection.

As part of the Coastal Management Plan and as a separate exercise to the above, Administration appointed MP Rogers to undertake a feasibility study into a tidal pool at Quinns. A draft report has been prepared by MP Rogers but has not been formally considered by Council.

Administration considers it would be premature to consider this Motion on Notice in advance of Council considering the results of the Stage 1 Quinns Study and the MP Rogers feasibility study.  It is therefore recommended that these be presented to a Council Forum as soon as the information from Cardno is ready to be presented.

To give Council an indication of possible costs, City of Stirling recently endorsed a $26M pumped pool at Scarborough that will form part of the $57.4M Scarborough Beach Redevelopment. The decision to construct a pumped pool resulted from a coastal study that found a tidal pool not to be feasible at Scarborough due to the area’s low tidal range and subsequent issues with water quality.
