Issue

To consider the draft Perth Coastal Planning Strategy as it affects the City of Wanneroo and to make a submission to the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC).

Background

The WAPC released the draft Perth Coastal Planning Strategy for public comment in December 2008 with submissions required by 31 March 2009.

 

The purpose of the draft Perth Coastal Planning Strategy is to guide future sustainable planning for conservation, recreation, infrastructure and development of the metropolitan coast for the next 10 to 15 years. The Strategy builds on Network City at a sub-regional level and provides a strategic regional framework for the implementation of State Government coastal policy and the promotion of integrated coastal management.  The draft Strategy has been released so that stakeholders have an opportunity to participate in the planning and management of the coast before the government finalises the Strategy.

 

A copy of the draft Strategy and Summary document has been placed in the Elected Members reading room.

 

Detail

 

The Strategy intends to:

 

·                Reflect the views of the community and the government on the future development of the coast;

·                Summarise and provide a key to all existing relevant legislation, policies, controls and guidelines;

·                Provide additional information, direction and policy recommendations which were informed by the consultation process and background research; and

·                Establish 56 broadly defined coastal precincts to provide a framework in which future coastal planning and development can be coordinated.  The precincts should reflect local characteristics and/or land use. 

 

The study area is the coastal zone in the Metropolitan Region Scheme extending 120 kilometres from Two Rocks to Singleton. The western boundary extends 500 metres offshore and the eastern boundary is the first main road running parallel to the coast. The coastal precinct guidance is focussed on the coastal foreshore reserve and the land abutting it.

 

The Strategy provides recommendations regarding the future type and character of the 56 individual coastal precincts that will be subjected to more detailed coastal planning. Each precinct is intended to represent a walkable area with an identifiable character that delineates it from adjacent areas. The precincts have been defined as one of three distinct types: industrial, built-up or open space. The built-up precinct can have the dominant character of an activity centre, mixed use or residential. The open space precinct can have the dominant character of passive recreation, active recreation and conservation. Fourteen of the precincts (25% of all precincts) are located within the City of Wanneroo as indicated in Attachment 1.  Eight of the precincts are designated as built-up, six are designated as open space and none are designated as industrial. 

Comment

Whilst the vision and intent of the Coastal Planning Strategy is consistent with that of the City, a number of issues require further consideration by the WAPC as follows:

 

1.       The Strategy precinct descriptions and recommendations do not reflect the District Structure Plans for Yanchep/Two Rocks and Alkimos/Eglinton, which have reached an advanced stage.  There are also a number of Local Structure Plans (LSPs) along this coastal corridor that should be taken into consideration.  The following comments are made in relation to the Precincts within the City of Wanneroo:

 

          Precinct 1:  North Two Rocks

          This is shown as predominantly residential with possible light marine-related industry.    No development is likely within this area during the strategy timeframe of 10-15 years and the Strategy should make reference to this.  This leads to a more general point about the staging of development, particularly in the North West Corridor where full build out is not anticipated until 2058.

 

          Precinct 2:  Two Rocks Open Space

          This is shown as conservation, however the Strategy fails to recognise that there will be residential development to the east of the coastal foreshore reserve and management of that interface will be critical.  The Yanchep/Two Rocks District Structure Plan shows a possible future marina in this location and reference to this must be made in the Strategy.

 

          Precinct 3:  Two Rocks Activity Centre

          This is shown as an activity centre with marina with moderate to high intensity.  The City has received a LSP for the Two Rocks Town Centre which shows a high level of intensity and the elements of this LSP should be reflected in the Strategy.

 

          Precinct 4:  North Yanchep

          This is shown as open space however, the Strategy must recognise that there will be residential development to the east of the coastal foreshore reserve and management of that interface will be critical. 

 

          Precinct 5:  Yanchep

          This is shown as a moderate intensity mixed use precinct with the potential for some tourism and recreation.  The Yanchep/Two Rocks District Structure Plan indicates a possible future marina in the northern portion of this precinct and potential future district/regional beaches.  This is in addition to two coastal activity centres (the northern of which may have reduced coastal setbacks) and a strategic regional centre set inland from the coast.  The Strategy fails to acknowledge the extent of this potential future development and must recognise that the level of intensity is high rather than moderate (notwithstanding current guidance in Network City).

 

          Precinct 6:  North Eglinton

          This is shown as a precinct with high conservation values and very limited access.  Conservation-based recreation is supported and controlling 4WD access in the dunes is recommended.

 

          Precinct 7:  Eglinton Activity Centre

          This is shown as a medium intensity activity centre with a major tourism and recreation node, and a mix of land uses with varying densities and types of residential use and water-oriented retail and offices.  The strategy should recognise that the northern part of this precinct includes regional open space, with a conservation function.  It is considered that the boundaries for precincts 6 and 7 should be changed.  Part of these precincts includes the regional open space which should have its own conservation precinct.  The boundary of precinct 6 should therefore be moved north and reflect the residential development at South Yanchep, for which a Local Structure Plan is currently being assessed and the boundary of precinct 7 moved south to cover only the location of the Activity Centre/marina.

 

          Precinct 8:  North Alkimos

          This precinct is shown as open space.  The Alkimos/Eglinton District Structure Plan shows a Coastal Village activity centre and local beach and this is reflected in the recently lodged Alkimos Local Structure Plan submitted on behalf of Peet.  The Strategy should reflect the location of this centre and recognise the intensity of development associated with such a centre and the residential development adjacent to the foreshore reserve.

 

          Precinct 9:  Alkimos Activity Centre

          A draft Local Structure Plan covering a part of this precinct owned by Landcorp shows a coastal village with the potential for a marina to be accommodated.  This reflects the Alkimos/Eglinton District Structure Plan.  The level of intensity is likely to reflect whether or not a marina is built, which is still uncertain.  If a marina is built this will encroach into the foreshore reserve. 

 

Precinct 10:  Jindalee Open Space

          This is shown as passive recreation, however, the Strategy must also recognise that there will be residential development to the east of the coastal foreshore reserve and management of that interface will be critical. 

 

         


Precinct 11:  Jindalee

          This is shown as a medium intensity mixed use precinct with a retail focus, with some high density residential use and high levels of access.  The Strategy fails to reflect the MRS amendment recently agreed by the WAPC in relation to the foreshore reserve being 50 metres and not defined as small to medium in the Strategy.

 

          Precinct 12:  Quinns Rock

          This is shown as an established residential precinct.

 

          Precinct 13:  Mindarie

          This is shown as a major tourism and recreation node within an activity centre and a range of activities associated with mixed use, including offices, accommodation, retail, residential development and marina.  The coastal strip of this precinct is dominated by a Bush Forever site and a large area of bushland registered as an Australian heritage site.

 

          Precinct 14:  Tamala Park

          The eastern part of the Precinct will include future residential development on land owned by the Tamala Park Regional Council.  This is currently being planned with a Local Structure Plan to be submitted in the near future.  The Strategy should provide guidance on the interface between the foreshore reserve/bush forever land and the residential development and specifically allow for managed public access to the coast.

 

2.       The Strategy should refer to the provision of a continuous coastal dual use path as indicated in the Alkimos/Eglinton and Yanchep/Two Rocks District Structure Plans.

 

3.       Section 6 covers principles for the whole Strategy area.  To make the Strategy more effective in guiding development along the City’s coastline it is considered that specific principles and guidelines should be prepared for each precinct, in particular those relating to land use and development principles.  The Strategy does not provide any guidance on an appropriate built form, including height of development (other than reference in paragraph 7.5.3 to State Planning Policy (SPP) 2.6).  It is presumed therefore that such guidance would be developed by individual local governments.

 

4.       The City supports the provision of a foreshore reserve along the coastal corridor.  However, this needs to be balanced with the community’s desire to access the beach.  The controlled and properly managed provision of coastal activity nodes should be provided and may encroach into the foreshore reserve and allow development in closer proximity to the ocean.  This will ensure that the protected areas of the foreshore are less likely to be damaged whilst allowing the community closer access to the beach/ocean.  The Strategy should provide guidance on instances where this will be permitted and indicate where this could occur along the coastline.

         

5.       The Strategy determines a coastal physical processes setback, however it does not specify whether the setback incorporates climate change modelling. Although SPP 2.6 incorporates a component for sea level rise within setback determinations, more recent climate change modelling in Western Australia by the Indian Ocean Climate Initiative suggests the current distance provided underestimates likely impacts. The Coastal Planning Strategy should specify whether updated climate change modelling has been used to determine coastal physical processes setbacks. If not, such modelling is required to ensure current planning for coastal areas can take into account future impacts to protect existing and future communities.

6.       Despite the presence of a Bush Forever site along the foreshore, the conservation value of a number of precincts is not recognised. Conservation of the Bush Forever reserve should be included as a land use/feature to promote within Precincts 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13.

 

7.       The Department for Planning and Infrastructure is currently developing an establishment plan for a coastal conservation reserve within the Tamala Park Precinct (14). This project is not currently included as a strategy for the Precinct, however it should be as it is a key initiative to achieve the conservation objectives for the area.

 

8.       Most of the coastline in the City of Wanneroo is undeveloped, and is currently undergoing strategic planning for urban development. As a requirement of the district level plans, all local structure plans for coastal locations must include a foreshore management plan. There is a significant opportunity for the Coastal Planning Strategy to inform future planning and design of coastal development, by providing specific design objectives and criteria to guide development of local structure plans and foreshore management plans.

 

          However the draft Strategy has not taken advantage of this opportunity.  Recommendations for each precinct generally include management concepts that will not influence urban development of the precincts;  for example, “Ensure that the foreshore reserve is not used for the discharge of waste or stormwater including sumps”. While some specific management strategies are needed to strategically address key priority issues along the coast, such as four wheel driving, specific precinct-level design objectives would also aid in structure planning and foreshore management planning.

Statutory Compliance

The WAPC intends that the Perth Coastal Planning Strategy become a State Planning Policy created under Section 3 of the Planning and Development Act 2005. State Planning Policies are the highest level of planning policy in Western Australia and must be given due regard by local government in the planning of an area.

Strategic Implications

The Strategy is based on Network City at a sub-regional level and provides a strategic regional framework for the implementation of State Government coastal policy (State Planning Policy 2.6 State Coastal Planning Policy) and promotes integrated coastal zone management.

 

In addition, the project is supportive of the following elements of Council’s Strategic Plan 2006-2021:

 

Outcome 1:Environmental

 

Outcome Objective 1.1 Improve conservation of local biodiversity in designated areas.

Outcome Objective 1.4 Minimise impact of development on natural landform.

Issue

To consider the adoption of the Local Environmental Plan 2009-2014 (LEP) following public advertising.

Background

Council, at its meeting of 21 October 2008, resolved the following:

 

That Council RELEASES the draft Local Environmental Plan 2009-2014 for an eight-week period of public consultation”

 

The draft LEP was subsequently advertised to the public from 27 October to 24 December 2008.

Detail

Five submissions were received on the draft LEP. A summary of submissions and resulting proposed changes to the LEP are provided in Attachment 1.

 

A number of submissions received during advertising requested inclusion of more detailed actions within the LEP. The role of the LEP, however, is not to provide a list of detailed actions. Operational information is instead provided by the City’s issues specific plans, such as the Energy Action Plan. Submissions received suggest that the purpose of the LEP as a strategic document was not clear in the advertised draft.

 

The LEP has been modified to better reflect its purpose of providing the City’s strategic response to local environmental pressures. The objective of the LEP is to provide a benchmark for the development of policies and projects to achieve environmental gains across the City.

 

In light of the comments received, the following major modifications are proposed:

 

·                Revision of Part 3 – Local Environmental Strategy to better demonstrate how the City will undertake its own operations, provide corporate leadership to the community, and influence others to achieve local environmental gains;

·                Revision of Part 3 to list the key strategic plans and projects to achieve the strategies of the LEP;

·                Revision of Part 3 to include greater detail and guidance for monitoring; and

·                Removal of Part 4 – Local Environmental Action Plans, as actions listed were predominantly existing projects, or can be included in more detailed environmental plans.

Copies of the revised LEP are available in the Elected Members Reading Room.

Consultation

The LEP has been developed in consultation with the Environmental Advisory Committee. At its meeting of 18 February 2009, the EAC resolved unanimously:

 

That the Environmental Advisory Committee RECOMMENDS that Council ADOPT the revised Local Environmental Plan 2009-2014, included as Attachment 2, with the deletion/amendment to the sentence on page 20 referring to domestic cats.”

 

The LEP available in the Councillors’ Reading Room incorporates the EAC’s recommended change to the text on page 20.

Comment

The LEP provides a clear benchmark for the development of future environmental plans and projects, consistent with its role in the City’s strategic planning framework.

 

The modifications reflected in the revised LEP will better enable monitoring of the performance of the LEP and changing trends in the local environment over time.

Statutory Compliance

The LEP will assist City officers to meet statutory requirements under relevant environmental legislation by providing a benchmark for the City’s operations and plans.

Strategic Implications

The LEP will contribute to addressing the ‘Environmental’ pillar of strategic focus of the Strategic Plan 2006-2021.

 

The LEP will provide strategic environmental direction to the City’s other environmental plans and projects.

Policy Implications

The LEP reflects and expands upon existing environmental policy presented within the Strategic Plan 2006-2021.

Commend inclusion of karst systems.

Noted.

None.

Use of term “stygofauna” should be modified to “subterranean fauna” to better incorporate diversity of species.

Agreed.

Suggestion incorporated.

Section 2.1 should more specifically include impacts on karst from development and uncontrolled access

Agreed.

“Karst features and caves” added to list of ecosystem types threatened by development.

 

“Uncontrolled access in cave and karst areas is also a key concern, due to potential damage to these areas, and potential risk of injury” added to ‘Uncontrolled Access’ section.

Section 2.1 should more specifically include impacts on karst from dumping, and contamination.

Discussion of dumping and contamination is relevant to all ecosystem types, none have been specifically mentioned

None.

“uncontrolled access” is really about human visitation impacts.

Impacts due to humans visiting natural areas can be managed by controlling how and where areas are accessed. Uncontrolled access is considered the greater threat than residents that appropriately use and enjoy natural areas.

None.

 

Section 5 – discussion of pressures of “stormwater” and “contamination” should consider karst issues.

Issue

To consider a request to amend District Planning Scheme No. 2 (DPS 2) by recoding Lot 26 Brunswick Circuit, Banksia Grove from Residential R20 to R50.

 

Applicant

Department of Housing and Works

Owner

Department of Housing and Works

Location

Lot 26 Brunswick Circuit, Banksia Grove

Site Area

3,585m2

DPS 2 Zoning

Residential (R20) Zone

MRS Zoning

Urban

Background

In December 2008, the City has received a request to recode the subject land from Residential R20 to R50.  The applicant has advised that the site was first set aside for playgrounds associated with the State’s ‘School in Houses’ initiative, although the subsequent construction of Neerabup Primary School on Viridian Drive, located in the vicinity of the subject land, has made redundant the need for school playgrounds on this site. 

 

Amendment No. 97 to DPS 2 has been proposed to provide the opportunity for additional dwellings to be developed at a medium density to satisfy the need for affordable housing for low to moderate income households.

Detail

Site

The site is located amongst land zoned and developed at the Residential R20 density. A plan showing the location of the subject site, which is currently vacant, is included as Attachment 1.  The site has frontage on all four sides to Brunswick Circuit.  However a 0.1 metre wide pedestrian access way prevents vehicular access along the southern boundary.

Proposal

The recoding request is to permit a grouped dwelling development for social housing.  Attachment 2 contains a concept plan depicting up to 10 units on the site, comprising one and two storey freehold and rental units. 


The floor areas of the freehold units are proposed to be between 119m2 and 148m2 and that of the rental units between 64m2 and 104 m2.  The plan provided as Attachment 2 is a concept only and does not form part of this recoding proposal.  Separate planning approval will be required for any grouped dwelling development on the site, regardless of density.

Consultation

All scheme amendments require public consultation.  The consultation period is normally 42 days and is normally undertaken by way of an on-site advertising sign, advertisements in the local newspaper and on the City’s website, as well as letters to relevant service agencies and adjacent landowners.

 

The Town Planning Regulations provide that where an amendment is consistent with the Metropolitan Region Scheme (MRS) and State policies and strategies, the consent of the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) will not be required to advertise the amendment.  The WAPC’s consent to advertise will, however, be required if an advertising period less than 42 days is sought.  Given that the proposed amendment is consistent with the MRS zoning and State policies and the recommended advertising period is 42 days, the consent of the WAPC is not required in this instance.

Smart Growth Strategy

The proposal satisfies the following principles of the City’s Smart Growth Strategy:

 

“1a.  Promoting a range of lot sizes to cater for different lifestyle choices.

  1b.   Promoting a range of housing types in appropriate locations to meet current and future marker demands.”

Comment

The current property description of the site is Lots 262 and 263 Brunswick Circuit, Banksia Grove.  Through a WAPC approval (Ref No.138416), it is proposed to amalgamate these two lots as Lot 26.

 

The applicant has advised that the surrounding residents have been advised of the subject proposal.  However, the feedback from these residents has not been provided.

 

The applicant has based the recoding proposal on the City’s Housing Strategy, which encourages higher density development in the vicinity of bus routes and Town Centres.  In this regard the following comments are made.

 

The Housing Strategy applies to areas such as greenfield sites and existing suburbs.  Banksia Grove is currently being developed as a Greenfields development as per the provisions of the Banksia Grove Agreed Structure Plan.  Hence the following Housing Strategy criteria for allocating density in Greenfields development are applicable to this proposal.

 

·                R40 within 800 metres of Town Centre

 

          The Banksia Grove Agreed Structure Plan makes provision for a District Centre at the intersection of Joondalup Drive and Pinjar Road (refer Attachment 1).  When developed, this District Centre will be located within 800 metres of the subject site.

 

·                R20 to R30 within 250 metres of bus routes

 

          Bus Routes 391 and 392 currently serve the developed portion of Banksia Grove to the east along Joondalup Drive. The site is located within 250 metres of these bus routes.

 

The site is suitable for R40 development in accordance with the City’s Housing Strategy.  However, the applicant has requested an R50 coding since it would make provision for some additional dwellings.  Based on the area of the site (approximately 3,585m2), up to 19 dwellings could be developed on the site at the R50 density, up to 16 dwellings at the R40 density and up to 11 at the R30 density.  The development concept provided at Attachment 2 therefore equates to approximately an R30 density.  On this basis, it is considered that the R40 density would still provide ample opportunity for the development of additional housing on the site than what is proposed by the attached concept plan.  It will therefore be recommended that the R40 density coding be supported, rather than R50, as per the Housing Strategy.

 

Having regard to the above matters and the benefits of providing affordable and diverse housing, the proposal has merit.  Also the size of the site is advantageous as it allows for a comprehensive design and development to be completed.  On this basis, it is recommended that the amendment be supported.

Statutory Compliance

The scheme amendment will follow the statutory process outlined in the Town Planning Regulations.

Strategic Implications

Consideration of this scheme amendment is consistent with the following Outcome Objective of the City’s Strategic Plan 2006 – 2021:

 

“2.1     Increase choice and quality of neighbourhood and lifestyle’s options.”

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

Scheme Amendment fees will be payable by the applicant in accordance with Council’s adopted fee schedule.

Issue

To consider adoption of:

 

1.       An amendment to the City of Wanneroo District Planning Scheme No .2 (DPS 2) to amend the Special Provisions of the Rural Community Zone relating to Lots 201 and 202, Breakwater Drive, Two Rocks; and

 

2.       The draft Lot 202 Breakwater Drive, Two Rocks Local Structure Plan No. 53 (LSP).

 

Applicant

Landvision Pty Ltd

Owner

Kincardine Holdings Pty Ltd

Location

Lot 202, Breakwater Drive, Two Rocks

Site Area

232 Hectares

DPS 2 Zoning

Rural Community

Background

In October 2006, the City received a request from the applicant to initiate an amendment to DPS 2 to amend some of the Special Provisions of the Rural Community Zone contained in Schedule 15 in order to increase the lot yield within Lot 202 Breakwater Drive, Two Rocks. The City also received a draft Local Structure Plan (LSP) for the subject land.

 

Lots 201 and 202 Breakwater Drive are zoned Rural Community Zone in DPS 2. Attachment 1 contains the location plan. Lot 201 (currently subdivided) is located to the north of Breakwater Drive and Lot 202 to the south.

 

The purpose of the Rural Community Zone is to provide for an orderly and integrated subdivision and development of larger areas of land proposed for rural residential use in a manner which maintains the environmental, vegetation and landscape characteristics of the locality. In the Rural Community Zone, DPS 2 allows the possibility of strata cluster subdivisional development as an alternative to conventional subdivision development.  The proposed scheme amendment sought to delete the option for cluster development.

 

Prior to reporting the proposal to Council, the Administration undertook preliminary assessment of the proposal in consultation with the applicant. As a result, the applicant, in September 2007, submitted the modified version of the proposal.

 

Council at its meeting of 12 February 2008 considered both the DPS 2 amendment and the draft LSP and resolved as follows (Item PD02-02/08):

“That Council:-

 

1.       Pursuant to Section 75 of the Planning and Development Act 2005 PREPARES Amendment No. 43 to District Planning Scheme No. 2 by modifying Schedule 15 (clause 3.23) by:

 

          a)      deleting in Special Provision 1.1.1 the following words:

 

“Where a combination of both conventional and cluster subdivision is proposed, the lot yield shall not exceed 300 lots and shall be determined by the Commission after consultation with the Council.  Should Lots 201 and 202 be developed separately, then the lot yields specified in Special Provisions 2.1 and 3.1 shall be divided between Lots 201 and 202 on a pro-rata basis”

 

b)      deleting in Special Provision 1.2.1 the ‘comma’ after the word “land” and replacing it with a ‘full-stop’ and deleting the following “but shall not exceed 255 lots.” And

 

          c)       deleting Special Provision 1.3 (Cluster Subdivision);

 

2.       REFERS Amendment No. 43 to District Planning Scheme No. 2 to the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) pursuant to Section 81 of the Planning and Development Act 2005.  Should the EPA advise that the amendment does not require assessment, ADVERTISE the amendment for a period of 42 days.

 

3.       FORWARDS a copy of the amendment to the Western Australian Planning Commission.

 

4.       Pursuant to Clause 9.4.1 of District Planning Scheme No.2 DETERMINES that the proposed Lot 202 Breakwater Drive, Two Rocks draft Local Structure Plan, as submitted by Landvision on behalf of Kincardine Holdings Pty Ltd and as outlined on Attachments 2 and 3 to this report is satisfactory subject to the applicant during the public consultation period:

 

a)      modifying the draft Local Structure Plan by relocating the building envelope of the proposed Lots 141 and 142 to minimise clearing of vegetation;

 

b)      requiring the preparation of a management plan in respect to the proposed Public Open Space area located at the south-eastern corner of the subject land containing the limestone heath to the satisfaction of the City and including the relevant provisions in the statutory section.

 

5.       SENDS a copy of the modified draft Local Structure Plan to the Western Australian Planning Commission.

 

6.       ADVERTISES the modified draft Local Structure Plan under the provisions of Clause 9.5.1 of District Planning Scheme No.2 for a period of 42 days.”


Detail

The Site

 

Located approximately 2 kilometres west of Wanneroo Road, the subject site has been primarily utilised in the past for low intensity cattle grazing. The topography of the land is undulating and most of the site has been cleared for the purpose of grazing. Remnant patches of native vegetation occur across the property, varying in density and structure. In addition, many mature Tuart trees are present throughout the site.

 

The Proposal

 

DPS 2 – Amendment No. 43

 

1.         “Special Provision 1.1.1” of Schedule 15 of DPS 2 limits the total number of lots in Lots 201 and 202 Breakwater Drive to 300 where a combination of conventional and cluster subdivision is proposed. “Special Provision 1.2.1” limits the total number of lots to 255 if conventional subdivision is proposed. The applicant has proposed to delete these restrictions to create more lots subject to further investigation of Karst features, vegetation, aboriginal heritage, environmental and landscape matters.

 

The conventional subdivision approval for Lot 201 would create 139 lots and the applicant has proposed 169 conventional subdivision lots within the subject land. Therefore the total number of lots would be 308. Considering the current limit of 255 conventional subdivision lots, the additional number of lots proposed is 53.

 

2.         Since there is no demand for cluster subdivision, the applicant has proposed to delete the requirement for “Special Provision 1.3” relating cluster subdivision.

 

Draft Local Structure Plan

 

The draft LSP makes provision for the following matters:

 

1.         169 lots of minimum 1 hectare in size;

 

2.         A robust and legible road network responsive to the topography with two connections to Breakwater Drive.

 

3.         Peripheral strategic fire breaks with bridle path/emergency access tracks and fencing interfacing with Regional Open Space on the eastern and southern boundary of the site;

 

4.         Protection of locally significant vegetation by including them in Public Open Space (POS);

 

5.         Protection of a recorded Aboriginal Heritage site within a 3 hectare area of POS;

 

6.         Management of stormwater discharge in accordance with geotechnical recommendations and water sensitive design principles;

 

7.         30-metre wide tree planting strips adjoining Breakwater Drive and the Freeway compared to the 15 metre width required under the scheme; and

 

8.         As per the recommendations of the City’s Community Fire Manager, provision of a 2000m2 Bush Fire Brigade site and fire-breaks inside the boundaries of the lots.

 

Attachment 2 contains the Statutory Section including the draft LSP.

Consultation

In accordance with Council’s February 2008 resolution, the amendment to DPS 2 and the draft LSP were advertised for a period of 42 days between 23 September and 4 November 2008.  This advertising was carried out by way of two on-site signs, an advertisement in the local newspaper and the City’s website and letters to affected and nearby landowners and relevant government agencies. Seven submissions were received in relation to the draft LSP, six from government agencies and one from a local resident.  Two submissions raised no objection to the proposals while the remaining five provided comments.  No submissions were received in response to the proposed scheme amendment.

Smart Growth Strategy

The proposal satisfies Smart Growth Principle 3 relating to “Long term Health of the Environment” by promoting development that minimises environmental impact, together with practices that conserve and enhance natural areas.

Comment

Response to the Submissions

A summary of issues raised in the submissions, together with Administration comments thereon, are provided:

 

Issue 1 - Noise Attenuation

 

Consideration to be given to some form of noise attenuation.

 

Comment

 

Main Roads Western Australia (MRWA) has advised that since the site abuts the Mitchell Freeway road reserve, consideration needs to be given to some form of noise attenuation.

 

Discussions with the MRWA officers indicate that noise attenuation measures could include house design features such as double-glazing and constructing noise barrier walls along lot boundaries where they abut the freeway reserve. In regard to the noise barrier walls, MRWA advised that it would be required only when the Freeway is built, although the timing of the construction of the Freeway is not known at present.

 

MRWA has advised that a noise study could be prepared at the subdivision stage to investigate and respond to noise issues from the future Freeway.  In this regard it is recommended that necessary provisions be included in the Statutory Section of the draft LSP. (It is noted, however, that such a provision is not included in the Lot 201 Breakwater Drive Agreed Structure Plan.)

 

Recommendation

 

It is recommended that the following provision be included in the Statutory Section and be suitably numbered:

 

2.11 - Noise Study

 

Prior to seeking subdivision approval from the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) in respect of the lots abutting the Mitchell Freeway road reserve, the developer shall prepare a noise study to examine the noise impact of the future Freeway on those lots and the need for notification to residents and/or implementation of attenuation measures, to the satisfaction of the City of Wanneroo.”

 

Issue 2 - Future Rail alignment

 

To align the future railway reservation alongside the Freeway Reserve within Lot 202.

 

Comment

 

MRWA has advised that the rail alignment should be located alongside the Mitchell Freeway reserve. This may have an impact on Lot 202 in the future.

 

The Metropolitan Region Scheme and DPS 2 depict the future rail alignment through the Urban Zone and Urban Development Zone respectively. However, in the draft Yanchep-Two Rocks District Structure Plan, it is proposed to realign the rail along the alignment of the Freeway reserve. Discussions with MRWA indicate that the rail could be a 50-year project. The preliminary design of the Freeway provided by MRWA does not make provision for the rail.

 

The Agreed Structure Plan (ASP) for Lot 201 Breakwater Drive does not depict a rail alignment. It is not clear how a rail alignment within Lot 202 could be integrated with Lot 201, which is currently being developed, with construction of new dwellings on the lots backing onto the Freeway reserve.

 

MRWA’s preliminary design of the Freeway depicts considerable cutting within the reserve adjoining Lot 202, to a maximum extent of about 7 metres (refer Attachment 3). Hence a rail alignment within Lot 202 to the west of Freeway would significantly affect the subject land.

 

The applicant’s intentions are to develop the land at the earliest possible time, and given that the details of the rail alignment are not available, it is recommended that this matter be resolved at the subdivision stage when MRWA and the Public Transport Authority will be required to comment on the subdivision application.  In any event, it is considered that the WAPC is best placed to address the rail alignment issue and its impact on the proposed LSP for Lot 202, given that firstly the Yanchep-Two Rocks District Structure Plan (which proposes a rail alignment along the Freeway) is awaiting the WAPC’s approval; and secondly, the WAPC is the state planning authority and should therefore be responsible for resolving such regional planning matters in consultation with other relevant state government agencies.

 

Recommendation

 

That the issue be noted.

 

Issue 3 – Spring Survey

 

Requirement for a Spring Survey.

 

Comment

 

The Department for Planning and Infrastructure (DPI) has requested the carrying out of a Spring Survey, stating that the vegetation survey provided was conducted in March, May and June of 2003. Further advice from DPI officers indicates that the Spring Survey could be undertaken at the subdivision stage. In this regard it is noted that instead of requiring a Spring Survey as a subdivision condition (since subdivision development generally does not take place in a sequential manner), it is recommended that it be carried out prior to submitting a subdivision application with the Western Australian Planning Commission.

 

Recommendation

 

It is recommended that the following provision be included as an additional developer responsibility under Section 2.7 of the Statutory Section.

 

“Spring Survey”:  Prepare a Spring Survey prior to the lodgement of subdivision application(s) with the Western Australian Planning Commission, to the satisfaction of the City of Wanneroo.”

 

Issue 4 – Drainage, Nutrient and Water Management Plan

 

Requirement for a new Drainage, Nutrient and Water Management Plan

 

Comment

 

DPI has requested that the applicant be required to prepare a new Drainage, Nutrient and Water Management Plan.  The City Administration considers that the Management Plan prepared by the applicant does not satisfactorily address the specifications set out in Attachment 1 of the Minister for the Environment’s Statement No. 537 published in February 2000 and the City’s requirements. This matter was discussed with the applicant who has requested the City to adopt the draft LSP subject to the preparation of the Drainage, Nutrient and Water Management Plan to the satisfaction of the City. In this regard it is recommended that the LSP be adopted, subject to the preparation of a Drainage, Nutrient and Water Management Plan, with the statutory section of the LSP being modified (as required) to incorporate the recommendations of the Management Plan. 

 

Recommendation

 

That the LSP be adopted, subject to (among other things) preparation of a Drainage, Nutrient and Water Management Plan, with the statutory section of the LSP being modified to incorporate the recommendations of the Management Plan, to the satisfaction of the Director Planning and Sustainability.

 

Issue 5 –Proposed Lot No 16

 

To relocate the building envelope of proposed Lot 16.

 

Comment

 

Based on advice of the former the Department of Conservation and Land Management (now Department of Environment and Conservation), DPI has requested that all building envelopes be setback a minimum of 25 metres from the adjoining Bush Forever Site 284 located to the west of the subject site. In this regard DPI has noted that the building envelope for proposed Lot 16 has a setback less than 25 metres and therefore has requested that the draft LSP be modified to achieve the 25 metre setback. It is noted that in addition to Lot 16 there are several other lots whose building envelope is less than 25 metres from the Bush Forever site. The applicant has agreed to modify the LSP to achieve a 25 metre building envelope setback from the Bush Forever site and has confirmed that the modified locations will not be affected by the karst features.

 

Recommendation

 

That the draft LSP be adopted subject to it being modified to achieve a minimum setback of 25 metres for all building envelopes from Bush Forever Site 284. 

 

Issue 7 – Aboriginal Heritage

 

Additional Aboriginal Heritage Assessment required.

 

Comment

 

The Department of Indigenous Affairs (DIA) has requested an additional Aboriginal Heritage assessment for any area, which has been exposed during the past 17 years, and for the preparation of an Aboriginal Heritage Management Plan for the proposed 3-hectare Public Open Space area located on the western boundary of the subject land. In this regard it is noted that the applicant has discussed this matter with DIA, who have agreed to deal with this matter at the subdivision stage.  This requirement should be reflected in the Statutory Section of the LSP.

 

Recommendation

 

That the following provision be included in the Statutory Section.

 

“2.12 - Aboriginal Heritage Management Plan

 

The developer shall prepare an Aboriginal Heritage Management Plan for the 3-hectare Public Open Space area and undertake an Aboriginal Heritage Assessment for any areas exposed during the past 17 years prior to the lodgement with the Western Australian Planning Commission of any subdivision application that includes the Public Open Space, to the satisfaction of the Department of Indigenous Affairs.”

 

Issue 8 – Covenants

 

To ban cats and signage within the future development of Lot 202.

Comment

 

A resident of the Lot 201 Breakwater Drive subdivision has advised that despite covenants to ban cats and signage on the estate, some residents have violated the provisions of the covenant.  The submittor has requested the City to deal with these matters appropriately when Lot 202 is developed and to extend those provisions within Lot 201 as well.

 

The City has not been a party to the covenant(s) referred to by the submittor. Under the provisions of the City’s Animals Local Law 1999, the keeping of up to three cats over the age of three months is allowed.  Council would need to prepare, adopt and administer a Cat Local Law, or make changes to the Animals Local Law to introduce a licencing or prohibition regime for the control of cats.  This would be a major consideration for Council and is altogether separate from the proposed scheme amendment and LSP and will therefore not be pursued at this stage.

 

Recommendation

 

That the issue be noted.

 

Issue 9 – Clearing of Trees

 

Requirement to prevent clearing of trees

 

Comment

 

A resident of the Lot 201 Breakwater Drive subdivision has requested the City to take suitable action to ensure that no indiscriminate clearing of trees occurs within Lot 202 similar to that which has allegedly happened in Lot 201.  The Lot 201 Agreed Structure Plan includes a provision that “native vegetation to be cleared beyond the building envelope will require approval from the City of Wanneroo.”  The subject LSP contains the following resident responsibilities in the Statutory Section under Section 2.7 Fauna and Vegetation Management

 

·                “No vegetation may be cleared for any purpose other than the construction of buildings, driveways, fire-breaks and selective clearing to lower fuel areas around buildings; and

 

·                Planting of endemic vegetation outside the building envelope.”

 

Recommendation

 

That the issue be noted.

Other matters

Landscape Management Plans

 

In accordance with Part 4.b) of Council’s February 2008 resolution, the applicant has prepared a Landscape Management Plan (LMP) for the proposed POS areas, to the satisfaction of the City. The LMP:

 

·                provides clear management objectives to maintain the conservation values of the natural areas;

·                provides guidance on environmental issues relevant to management;

Issue

To reconsider resolution PD06-11/08 of 18 November 2008 when Council refused Amendment No. 1 to the Drovers Place Precinct Structure Plan No 47 (SP 47) and to consider a complete review of that plan.

 

Applicant

Turner Master Planners Australia

Owner

Goldrange Pty Ltd & Greenpark Asset Pty Ltd

Location

Lots 810 (1397) & 811 (1387) Wanneroo Road, Wanneroo

Site Area

5.7 Ha

DPS 2 Zoning

General Rural / Urban Development

Background

The original application for Amendment No. 1 to SP 47 was submitted in December 2007, and has been the subject of litigation.  The applicant requested the addition of the use classes listed below, as permissible uses in the Restricted Use Precinct over Lots 810 and 811 Wanneroo Road (now occupied by the Drovers Place Market Place).  Attachment 1 illustrates SP 47 and its three precincts.

 

            Showrooms

            Pharmacy (Discount)

            Medical Centre

            Liquor Store

            Recreation Centre

            Self Storage Units

 

Amendment No. 1 was initiated and advertised in a modified form to only include the following list of permissible uses in the Restricted Use Precinct:

 

            Showrooms

            Self Storage Units

            Veterinary Consulting Rooms

            Veterinary Hospital

 

After advertising, Council, at its meeting of 18 November 2008, considered Amendment No. 1 in light of the two submissions received, and the strategic implications of its draft Activity Centres Strategy, and resolved:

 

“1.    Pursuant to Clause 9.6.1 of District Planning Scheme No.2, REFUSES to adopt Amendment No. 1 to the Drovers Place Precinct Agreed Structure Plan No 47, as advertised and as outlined in Attachment 3 to this report, as it is considered inconsistent with the approach to out-of-centre development recommended in the draft Activity Centres Strategy/Local Planning Policy which has been adopted by Council for consultation, in the following respects:

 

a)      The proposed additional uses, especially showrooms, would increase the likelihood of this site taking on the role of an “activity centre”.  However this is not considered a suitable site for an activity centre because:

 

i)       the site is highway-oriented and encourages access exclusively by motor vehicles.  The site is not well serviced by public transport or by walking and cycling access, considered to be critical for an activity centre;

 

ii)      the site and its surrounds are not suitable for extensive residential development or easily accessible by existing residences, a key requirement of an activity centre;  and

 

iii)     the proposed development does not create a sense of place and community required by an activity centre, in that it is not being designed at a scale or with a fine-grained form to encourage pedestrian interaction or function as a community focal point;

 

b)      The proposed uses do not provide a net community benefit in terms of the sustainability requirements for activity centres proposed under the draft Activity Centres Strategy/Local Planning Policy.  Furthermore, the likely large format of some of the proposed uses (in particular the showrooms) could be provided for within or adjacent to an existing or proposed activity centre in Wanneroo to enhance the opportunities for multi-purpose trips to centres;

 

c)       The proposed uses in combination with existing development on the two sites would have an adverse effect on existing and planned centres within the Wanneroo network.  They will undermine the economic performance of some centres, and limit the opportunities to establish particular types of new uses to strengthen and diversify existing and planned centres.  This applies particularly to the Carramar Neighbourhood Centre as well as the Banksia Grove and Wanneroo District Centres;

 

d)      The proposed uses will be likely to undermine the economic and cultural opportunities to provide special uses of municipal and regional significance at Drovers Place that are of higher value.  This is due to the strategic location of the site at the junction of two major roads, and its proximity to Lake Joondalup.  The site could be used for more valuable tourist-related purposes that capture and enhance the distinctive ‘culture’ of Wanneroo as well as delivering economic value.  By contrast, the proposed uses represent a similar type of operation to many others provided in both the municipality and the region;  and

 

e)       The proposal is inconsistent with the City’s Centres Strategy Review;

 

2.       ENDORSES the comments made in this report regarding the submissions received, in response to the advertising of the amendment, for inclusion in the schedule of submissions to be forwarded to the Western Australian Planning Commission with a recommendation that the amendment be REFUSED;

 

3.       ADVISES the submittors of its decision;  and

 

4.       CONTINUES to work with the applicant towards incorporating uses, that Council considers may be better for this important site, through a full review of the Restricted Use and Tourism precincts of Structure Plan 47, a new amendment to incorporate the changes required to achieve this and the following uses are considered appropriate, but not limited to:

 

·                A micro brewery, chocolate factory, adventure park, iconic sculpture, café, restaurant, tavern, accommodation or sector specific uses such as arts/creative media centre or motor museum”.

 

The owners subsequently applied to the State Administrative Tribunal (SAT) to review Council’s decision, and the matter (DR487 of 2008) was referred to a mediation conference on 5 February 2009.  The SAT has ordered that Council be invited to reconsider Amendment No. 1, under the provisions of Section 31 of the SAT Act, by its April 2009 meeting.

 

On 10 February 2009, Metropolitan Region Scheme (MRS) Amendment 1155/57 was published in the Government Gazette.  This amendment transferred the SP 47 area from the Rural Zone to the Urban Deferred zone under the MRS (see comment on MRS amendment below).

Detail

At mediation the owner’s representative advised the SAT that the applicant would like the City to progress Amendment No. 1 as advertised, or at least in respect of showrooms and self storage units.  This will enable the owners to proceed with the development of Lots 810 and 811, and leave the other uses originally proposed by Amendment No. 1 for further, separate, negotiation with the City.

Consultation

When Amendment No. 1 was advertised for public comment, two submissions were received, which are summarised below, along with Administration comments thereon.

Submission 1

Although it did not object to Amendment No. 1, Main Roads WA expressed an interest in exploring the closure of the access to Wanneroo Road at Lot 811 and providing an access opposite Clarkson Avenue.

 

Response:  This will enable the progressive closure of all individual crossovers along Wanneroo Road.  It is not something that can be included in the amendment, but may be considered as part of the review of SP 47 that Council will be recommended to undertake.


Submission 2

This was a late submission by Greg Rowe and Associates on behalf of Peet Limited.  It did not object to the uses agreed by Council for advertising Amendment No. 1, but strongly opposed the other uses proposed by the applicant in the original application for the amendment.  The objection was on the grounds that the other uses will be accommodated in the new Carramar Neighbourhood Centre and Banksia Grove District Centre.

 

Response:  The submission does not object to the uses proposed in Amendment No. 1 as advertised, and which are the subject of this reconsideration.

Smart Growth Strategy

Principle 5.2 of the City’s Smart Growth Strategy 2005 supports the effective use and development of land and buildings for the benefit of the local area.

Comment

The City’s Centres Policy 2000

The policy promotes initiatives to establish new mixed business areas, and promotes employment and the attraction of more commerce to Wanneroo.  Although it also promotes a flexible approach to centre development, this should not necessarily be interpreted to mean a flexible approach to location, because the policy aims to make the best use of planned and existing community infrastructure and to facilitate business development at all regional, district and neighbourhood centres.  Nevertheless, major arterials are mentioned in the policy as possible business centre locations where easy access is available.  Such locations offer good exposure to passing traffic and it is this aspect of the policy that may be argued in support of Amendment No. 1, which seeks to make the highest and best use of the high exposure to Wanneroo Road and significant floor area of the existing and proposed buildings approved on Lots 810 and 811.

The City’s Draft Activity Centres Strategy and Policy

Amendment No. 1 proposed the introduction of new uses that Administration did not consider to be consistent with the approach to out-of-centre development recommended in the Draft Activity Centres Strategy/Policy, which does not identify SP 47 as an activity centre.  The hierarchy of centres promoted in close proximity to SP 47 include the Banksia Grove District Centre, the Carramar Neighbourhood Centre and two Tapping Local Centres.  Unless commercial land use is carefully controlled, SP 47 could potentially have a detrimental impact on other centres planned nearby, including the Wanneroo Town Centre.  The floor space planned for these centres has been calculated on the basis that there will not be a major competing centre in SP 47.

 

The Carramar Neighbourhood Centre is under construction and is planned for completion in early 2009.  It is less than a kilometre from SP 47 and will comprise some 4,500m2 of floor area, and an adjoining community purpose area.  A pharmacy, medical centre, café, fast food, liquor store, tavern and recreation centre will be accommodated in or adjacent to the Carramar Neighbourhood Centre. 


The Banksia Grove District Centre will be some two kilometres from SP 47 and will accommodate a discount department store, supermarkets, speciality shops, showrooms, community centre, and medical centre and consulting rooms.

MRS Amendment 1155/57

The MRS amendment was advertised as a proposal to transfer the land in SP 47 from the Rural Zone to the Urban Zone.  However objections were received and following a hearing before a ‘hearings committee’ of the Metropolitan Region Planning Committee, the MRS amendment was modified to transfer the land to the Urban Deferred Zone.  Notice to this effect was published in the Government Gazette on 10 February 2009.

 

The main reason why the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) modified the MRS amendment was because of its concern that SP 47 is inadequate, and has failed to account for the ad hoc land use approvals that have created a “unique situation” in SP 47.  The WAPC has foreshadowed that it will not lift the Urban Deferment and transfer the land to the Urban Zone, until the City has prepared a new structure plan for the Drovers Place Precinct.  The issues that the WAPC has listed to be addressed in a new structure plan include:

 

1.       Access and drainage having regard to existing site constraints;

 

2.       The interface between the structure plan and the adjacent Yellagonga Regional Park and Lake Joondalup;

 

3.       Developer contribution arrangements;  and

 

4.       Ultimate development potential having regard to existing land uses.

Amendment No 82 to the City’s District Planning Scheme No. 2 (DPS 2)

Amendment No. 82 proposes to transfer land in SP 47 from the General Rural Zone to the Urban Development Zone of DPS 2.  The City requested that this Amendment be processed simultaneously with the MRS amendment, under the provisions of Section 126(3) of the Planning and Development Act 2005 (the Act).  However, the Act limits the application of s.126 to MRS proposals that transfer land to the Urban Zone, and this will now not happen until the Urban Deferment is lifted.  Consequently, the zoning of SP 47 will remain General Rural in DPS 2 until a new structure plan has been completed, Urban Deferment is lifted under the MRS and Amendment No. 82 is approved.

Review of SP 47

Paragraph 4 of Council’s resolution PD06/11-08 refers only to a review of the Restricted Use and Tourism Precincts of SP 47 whereas, in the circumstances of the finalisation of the MRS amendment and in view of the apparent failings of SP 47 to guide the use and development of the precinct, it is considered prudent for the City to prepare a new structure plan to replace SP 47 as a matter of urgency.  Attachment 2 illustrates the Urban Deferred Zone introduced by the MRS amendment and it is proposed that this should be the area to be covered by a replacement for SP 47.  It should be noted that the road reservation, immediately south of SP 47 in the Parks and Recreation Reservation, is now included in the Urban Deferred Zone and will also have to be included in the SP 47 review area.

 

Three amendments have been proposed to SP 47.  Amendment No. 1, the amendment the subject of this report; Amendment No. 2 (withdrawn) to extend the Restricted Use Precinct further south over Lots 1 and 132; and, Amendment No. 3 (advertising closed on 17 February 2008) to develop a Catholic school campus on Lots 6, 7 and 8 at the western end of SP 47.  Consideration of these amendments (including the proposals put forward in Amendment No. 2) and a related subdivision application (WAPC Ref: 136518), which is also the subject of SAT review (against conditions of approval) would be far more appropriate through a complete review of SP 47.  If the amendments continue to be processed on an individual or ad hoc basis, it is expected that they will not be endorsed by the WAPC and unnecessary delays will result.

 

In relation to Amendment No. 1 and the suggestion made by the owner’s representative at the SAT mediation, the Administration agrees there is merit in providing for development of some showrooms and self storage units on Lots 810 and 811, and perhaps even the remainder of the SP 47 area.  However, in light of the WAPC’s recent decision on the MRS Amendment, there is no value in pursuing this concept further, independently of a complete review of SP 47.

Statutory Compliance

Clause 3.2.2 of DPS 2 provides for the Zoning Table (Table 1) to determine the permissibility of use classes listed under the various zones in Table 1.  The Urban Development Zone is not listed in Table 1 and the permissibility of uses in this zone is determined by the provisions of an Agreed Structure Plan approved under Part 9 of DPS 2.  SP 47 was approved by the certification of the WAPC on 14 August 2007, adoption by the City on 30 October 2007, and signing and sealing by the City on 5 November 2007.

 

Given the current General Rural zoning of the land, there is a potential conflict between the uses permitted in SP 47, and the permissibility of the use classes listed under the General Rural Zone in Table 1 in DPS 2.  Clause 5.0 b) of SP 47 states that in the event of any inconsistency or conflict between SP 47 and DPS 2, the provisions of DPS 2 shall prevail.  This potential conflict can be overcome by invoking the provisions of clauses 9.8.3(b) and (f) of DPS 2 and inserting the following additional text at the end of the LSP clause 5.0 b) - "with the exception of the land uses permitted herein which, pursuant to clauses 9.8.3(b) and (f) of the Scheme, shall be applied as an intended variation to the Scheme and shall prevail over the land uses permitted for the land under the Scheme". Subject to this text being included in the Statutory Provisions of the LSP, staff support including the land uses of showrooms and storage units as permitted uses on Lots 810 and 811 (under clause 7.2.1 of the LSP).

 

The review of SP 47, lifting the Urban Deferment under the MRS and approval of Amendment No. 82 are still however matters to which urgent attention should be given in light of the likelihood that the WAPC will not likely support any amendment to SP 47 without a complete review of the plan.  Accordingly, the Administration is currently preparing a new structure plan to replace SP 47.  It is anticipated the new structure plan will be presented to Council for consideration by April/May 2009.

 

The City will be able to submit another request for the simultaneous adoption by the WAPC of Amendment No. 82 under the provisions of section 126(3) of the Act, when Council requests the lifting of Urban Deferment over the SP 47 area.

 

Council has the following options available to it in dealing with SAT’s invitation to reconsider its decision on Amendment No. 1 to SP 47:

 

1.       Advise SAT that Council is not prepared to reconsider its decision;  or

 

2.       Reconsider and affirm the previous Council decision;  or

 

3.       Reconsider and change the previous Council decision.

 

It will be recommended that Council pursue Option 3 above and change SP 47 to include enabling provisions to overcome any land use conflict with DPS 2 and to allow showrooms and storage units on Lots 810 and 811.  Notwithstanding this recommendation, it should be noted that the WAPC has clearly foreshadowed that it will not approve the lifting of the Urban Deferment (and therefore rezoning by Amendment No. 82 to DPS 2 to overcome the current land use conflict between the Scheme and SP 47) until a new structure plan has been prepared.  The Administration considers that preparation of a new structure plan will therefore still be a high priority.  This is particularly due to the fact that even if SAT upholds the applicant’s review of Amendment No. 1, the amendment will still require referral to the WAPC, which is likely to refuse the proposal, possibly triggering another SAT review, with related costs and delays.

Strategic Implications

The type of development that is taking place on Lots 810 and 811 has implications for the City’s review of its current Centres Policy.  This review is well advanced, and will reinforce the benefits of planned, appropriately located activity centres, providing a mix of retail, office, business and retail developments in close proximity to where people live, whilst also recognising the importance of highly accessible business locations along major arterial roads.

Policy Implications

The implications of the review of the City’s current Centres Policy have been discussed earlier in this report.

Financial Implications

Nil

 

Summary

 

Having regard to all the matters outlined in this report, it is recommended that Council approve an amendment to SP 47 to introduce showrooms and storage units as permitted uses and to make textual changes to Part 1 of SP 47 to overcome the possible conflict that exists between DPS 2 and SP 47 in respect of land use.

That Council:-

1.       ADVISES the State Administrative Tribunal that, having reconsidered its resolution PD06-11/08 of 18 November 2008 relating to Amendment No. 1 to the Drovers Place Precinct Structure Plan No. 47, Council AGREES to set aside that decision and substitute it with SUPPORT for a modification to the structure plan that:

          a)      Adds the following text to the end of the structure plan clause 5.0 b) - "with the exception of the land uses permitted herein which, pursuant to clauses 9.8.3(b) and (f) of the Scheme, shall be applied as an intended variation to the Scheme and shall prevail over the land uses permitted for the land under the Scheme"; and

          b)      Adds the uses of "Showroom" and "Storage Unit" to the permitted uses for Lots 810 and 811 under clause 7.2.1 of the structure plan.

2.       REQUIRES the Administration to review the Drovers Place Precinct Structure Plan No. 47 as a matter of priority, with a view to preparing a new structure plan for the whole of the area covered by the Urban Deferred zoning introduced by Metropolitan Region Scheme Amendment 1155/57.

Issue

To consider a request from the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) for a modification of Amendment No. 88 to the City’s District Planning Scheme No. 2 (DPS 2).

 

Applicant

Turner Master Planners Australia

Owner

Chisholm Holdings Pty Ltd

Location

Lot 6 (12) Hughie Edwards Drive, Merriwa

Site Area

3582 sq m

DPS 2 Zoning

Business

Background

The application was submitted on 1 April 2008.  On 21 October 2008, following advertising and consideration of submissions, Council adopted Amendment No. 88 to rezone Lot 6 from the Business Zone to the Commercial Zone.  The amendment documents were subsequently forwarded to the WAPC for final approval on 29 October 2008.

 

A letter, dated 18 December 2008, from the WAPC advised that the Minister for Planning would not approve the amendment until it was modified to transfer an allowance of 500m2 of retail floor area to Lot 6 from Lots 1768 and 1769, which have been developed as a medical centre and child care centre respectively.

 

Attachment 1 illustrates the lots referred to in this report.

Detail

Schedule 3 of DPS 2 specifies the nett lettable area (NLA) of retail area that is allocated to various Commercial and Centre zones.  The NLA specified for the Merriwa Local Centre is allocated to the Commercial zone which now comprises Lots 1768 and 1769.  Consequently Amendment No. 88 should be modified to update Schedule 3 to accurately reflect the reallocation of NLA intended for the Merriwa Local Centre area (Lots 1768 and 1769) to Lot 6, given that Lots 1768 and 1769 have not been developed for retail purposes.

Consultation

The WAPC required the owners of Lots 1768 and 1769 to be consulted and invited to make submissions.  Individual letters were sent to the owners and strata owners of the lots on 8 January 2009, and two submissions were received on their behalf.  Whilst the owners do not object to Lot 6 being included in the Commercial zone, they do not wish to have the 500m2 of NLA reallocated from their properties as the WAPC is suggesting. 


The owner of Lot 1769 advises that the future of the ABC Learning Centre which leases the premises is uncertain, and redevelopment may occur sooner rather than later.  The buildings and carparking for the medical centre on Lot 1768 could easily be adapted for future retail use according to the submission on behalf of the strata owners, and this will require an allocation of NLA.

Smart Growth Strategy

Principal 5.2 of the City’s Smart Growth Strategy 2005 supports the effective use and development of land and buildings for the benefit of the local area.

Comment

A detailed submission, from planning consultants on behalf of the medical centre strata owners, was received in support of increasing the NLA for the Merriwa Local Centre from 500m2 to 1000m2.  An additional 500m2 NLA may reasonably be allocated to Lot 6 where 44 car parking bays will be provided as part of a “Growers Mart” development proposal.  The proposed parking on Lot 6 will be sufficient for up to 628m2 NLA and it is considered that there is sufficient housing in the immediate neighbourhood to justify an allocation of 1,000m2 NLA to serve this area (see Policy Implications below).

Statutory Compliance

Shops are permitted in the Commercial Zone of DPS 2.  As Amendment No. 88 does not propose extinguishing the Commercial zoning of Lots 1768 or 1769, an allocation of NLA should remain to accommodate any redevelopment that may occur on these lots, in addition to an appropriate allocation for the proposed development of Lot 6.  Schedule 3 of DPS 2 specifies the NLA allocated to shopping centres and it should be modified to accurately reflect the intentions for the Merriwa Local Centre.

 

In addition to maintaining the floorspace allocation in Schedule 3, the Administration recommends modifying the reference to Lots 1768 and 1769 to accurately refer to their current street address on Hughie Edwards Drive, not Baltimore Parade, as listed in Schedule 3.

Strategic Implications

The Smart Growth unit supports the recommended modification to Schedule 3 of DPS 2.  The provision of adequate shopping in this neighbourhood will meet the needs of residents, in particular retirees in the RAAFA Village, and the additional NLA proposed is consistent with the City’s existing policy and draft Activity Centres Strategy.

Policy Implications

Table 5.1 of the City’s Centres Policy designates an aggregate of 1,000m2 NLA as a guide for the development of Local Centres, which are intended to serve 200 homes.  There are 240 homes in the RAAFA Retirement Village alone, providing a sufficient demand immediately adjacent to the Merriwa Local Centre for shopping facilities.

 

The City’s Draft Activity Centres Strategy designates the “RAAFA corner” as a neighbourhood centre.  The criteria for neighbourhood centres in the draft Strategy include total floor area guidelines up to 7,000m2 and retail floor area up to a maximum of 6,000m2.

Recommendation

That Council:-

1.       MODIFIES Amendment No. 88 to the City of Wanneroo District Planning Scheme No 2 (DPS2) by including provisions to amend Schedule 3 in the Scheme Text for the Merriwa Local Centre, as follows –

a)      The deletion of “Lot 1769 on Diagram 90122 (241) Baltimore Parade and Lot 1768 on Diagram 90121 (235) Baltimore Parade” and the substitution with “Lot 1769 on Diagram 90122 (16) Hughie Edwards Drive and Lot 1768 on Diagram 90121 (22) Hughie Edwards Drive” and retaining the allocation of 500m2 NLA for these properties in the third column of the Schedule; and

Issue

To reconsider Council’s decision of 1 July 2008 to not support a proposed lifting of Urban Deferment over Lot 204 Breakwater Drive, Two Rocks.

 

Applicant

Taylor Burrell Barnett

Owner

Atlantis Cove Pty Ltd

Location

Lot 204 Breakwater Drive, Two Rocks

Site Area

554 hectares

MRS Zoning

Urban Deferred

DPS 2 Zoning

Urban Development

Background

At its meeting of 1 July 2008, Council considered a request from the Department for Planning and Infrastructure (DPI) for comment upon a proposal it had received from the applicant to lift the Urban Deferred status of the subject land under the Metropolitan Region Scheme (MRS).

 

Council resolved (item PD02-07/08):

 

“That Council ADVISES the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) that it DOES NOT SUPPORT the proposed lifting of Urban Deferment of Lot 204 Breakwater Drive, Two Rocks submitted by Taylor Burrell Barnett on behalf of Atlantis Cove Pty Ltd as the proposal does not satisfy the criteria contained in the WAPC’s Guidelines for the Lifting of Urban Deferment, November 2007 as follows:

 

1.       It will be quite some time before the subject land will be adequately serviced;

 

2.       The Yanchep-Two Rocks District Structure Plan of which the subject land forms part is not yet adopted by the Western Australian Planning Commission and the City of Wanneroo and therefore planning is not sufficiently advanced in this area;

 

3.       The closest urban development is at Two Rocks Townsite, which is about two kilometres away from the subject land, and therefore the proposal does not provide a logical progression of the development;

 

4.       The constraints to urban development such as karstic features have not been adequately addressed; and

 

5.       The proposal does not include a detailed Structure Plan.”

Detail

The land which is the subject of this proposal is shown on Attachment 1.

 

The applicant’s request (which was received on 6 January 2009), is for Council to reconsider its previous decision (refer Attachment 2). 

Consultation

Not required.

Comment

Since Council’s consideration of the proposed lifting of Urban Deferment of the subject land at its meeting of 1 July 2008, Council has considered (at its meeting of 23 September 2008) the finalisation of the Yanchep-Two Rocks District Structure Plan (DSP).  A number of matters are still to be addressed by the proponent to enable formal submission of the final DSP to the WAPC for its approval.  One of those outstanding matters is the preparation of a staging strategy to be included in Part 2 of the DSP.

 

One of the main purposes of the staging strategy is to enable a more proactive approach to be taken on the manner that development occurs in the area covered by the DSP.  It is similarly desirable that a more proactive approach is taken to the planning process in general for this area so that there is a clear understanding by all stakeholders involved as to what that process is, and what needs to be done at each stage in that process.  One of those stages will be the lifting of Urban Deferment and, as shown in Attachment 3, there are substantial areas within the Yanchep-Two Rocks area which are currently zoned Urban Deferred under the MRS and which at some point will need to be considered for lifting of Urban Deferment.

 

Given the above, it is recommended that Council prepare a Local Planning Policy to provide clear guidance as to how the planning process should proceed for the Yanchep-Two Rocks area, from the current stage of finalising of DSP, through to subdivision and development, and including the lifting of Urban Deferment.

 

Administration is cognisant of the fact that certain events (namely finalisation of the DSP), may have overtaken the position adopted by Council in July 2008 in respect of the lifting of the Urban Deferred status of the subject land.  As such, it would be timely for Council to reconsider its previous decision, given the merits of the particular case at hand.  However, with the imminent finalisation of the DSP, Council will only experience increasing pressure from landowners in the area to also lift the Urban Deferment over their land and progress to subsequent stages of the planning process.  In view of this situation it will be critical to the orderly and proper planning of the area for Council to establish a holistic and formal policy position for progressing the planning of the area.  This in turn will provide much needed certainty and consistency to all stakeholders.

 

Administration has discussed the need for a policy framework with both the owner and applicant for the current proposal and they are supportive of that approach.  The owner and applicant will be provided with the opportunity to have input into the policy formulation, as will other stakeholders during the formal advertising period.

 

It is anticipated that the draft policy will be presented to Council for consideration by April/May this year.

Statutory Compliance

Under the provisions of Clause 27 of the Metropolitan Region Scheme, land included within the Urban Deferred zone may be transferred to the Urban Zone by resolution of the WAPC notified in the Government Gazette.  As per the provisions of the WAPC’s guidelines for the lifting of Urban Deferment, the City is required to provide comments on the proposal.

Recommendation

That Council:-

1.       ENDORSES the preparation by Administration of a Local Planning Policy for Council’s consideration that would provide guidance for progressing the planning and approval processes for the Yanchep-Two Rocks area, including the matter of how proposals for lifting of Urban Deferment should be addressed; and

2.       DEFERS consideration of the request from Taylor Burrell Barnett on behalf of Atlantic Cove Pty Ltd for reconsideration of Council’s decision of 1 July 2008 not to support lifting of Urban Deferment of Lot 204 Breakwater Drive, Two Rocks pending preparation of the policy referred to in 1. above.

Issue

To consider applications for planning approval for commercial vehicle parking (Category 3) and a Home Business in association with the continued use of Lot 148 for the “Tree Amigos” tree surgeon business, for a limited time, to enable the business to relocate.

 

Applicant

Land Insights

Owner

S & A Proudfoot

Location

Lot 148 (356) Sydney Road, Gnangara

Site Area

4.4 hectares

DPS 2 Zoning

General Rural

Background

This is the second application for planning approval for commercial vehicle parking in relation to the Tree Amigos business that is operating from Lot 148.  This application was submitted on 20 October 2008. The first application was deemed refused after the statutory time limit for determination expired and the applicant had not submitted information requested in support of the proposal. 

 

An adjacent landowner has complained about nuisance, mainly noise and the arrival of staff vehicles early in the mornings.  The initial complaint was made in November 2006, and the City’s Health Services has been dealing directly with the complainant, whose home is approximately 130 metres from the alleged noise area.  A noise meter has been offered to monitor noise if the complainant wishes to do so, but this offer has been declined to date.

 

There are no approvals in place for Lot 148. The current applications have been made to rectify this, until such time as the business can be relocated.  Such an approval will remove the threat of prosecution proceedings against the owners for the continued unauthorised use and development of their land.  The applicant has submitted that a two-year, time limited approval will provide sufficient time for relocation of the business.

 

The applicant advises that the owners commenced operating their business from Lot 148 approximately four years ago, from an existing shed which they extended.  No applications were made for building licences for either the shed or its extensions.  The business has now grown to the extent that it may no longer be considered an appropriate use of a rural property.

Detail

The commercial vehicle parking comprises a 4 tonne and 9 tonne rigid tip truck, both carrying a wood chipper machine. 

 

Access to Lot 148 is via a 10 metre wide “battleaxe leg” which has been compacted to withstand the weight of the vehicles.  The onsite parking area is similarly compacted.  Attachment 1 is an aerial photograph of the property and Attachment 3 is a more detailed site plan of portion of Lot 148.

 

Employees meet at Lot 148 each morning to go out on the trucks to various work places.  The applicant has advised that an average of 6 staff vehicles arrive early in the morning to be parked during the day (while the staff concerned are working off site) and leave again in the evening.  In addition a part-time secretary and full-time operations manager, who are employed in the office during the day, park on site.

 

Tree Amigos is a mobile tree lopping business operating out of Lot 148.  Although the trucks are not serviced on site, chain saws and the wood chippers are serviced at the end of each week on Friday afternoons.  This involves changing air filters and blades, and takes approximately an hour according to the applicant.

Consultation

Surrounding landowners were notified of the proposal in writing and invited to comment within 21 days.  As a result, one letter of objection and one letter in support were received.

 

The letter in support advises that the use of Lot 148 has not caused inconvenience to the authors. 

They state that vehicles pass the full length of their property and are driven in a careful, considerate manner.

 

The objector opposes the application because he considers that it contravenes the objectives of the General Rural zone.  The objector also states that the activities have had an adverse impact on the amenity of his home immediately north of Lot 148, and are adversely affecting his health and lifestyle, and the financial return he may expect to receive if he sells his property.  The objector is also concerned that his ability to sell his property may be compromised, and that the risk of fire resulting from vehicles parking on Lot 148 may reduce his ability to insure his property.

 

Administration Comment

 

An important objective of the General Rural zone is the maintenance and enhancement of rural character and amenity.  The nuisance the objector has raised relates to the early arrival of staff vehicles that disrupt his sleep.  Similar nuisance could also be experienced from the activities of an agricultural use, for example the early start of market gardening.  The noise generated by such activities on the property is regulated by the Environmental Protection (Noise) Regulations.  A time limited approval is recommended to enable the applicant to relocate within a set time.

 

The City also received a petition, organised by the objector, and signed by 23 people in the wider area.  Individual notices signed by the petitioners accompanied the petition and stated:

“While Gnangara is zoned General Rural, I want the regulations to be enforced rigorously and strictly, to retain the general rural lifestyle.  Commercial operations that are not a part of agriculture or horticulture production and rural pursuits should not operate in the Gnangara Rural zoned area, quite apart from the general nuisance that they create.

 

This applies to the two applications above.  Accordingly I object to the applications above”.

 

A photocopy of the petition was presented to the Council meeting on 16 December 2008, by Councillor Monks (reference PT02-12/08).

 

Attachment 2 has been included to illustrate the location of the objector’s and supporter’s properties as well as those of people living in the vicinity of Lot 148 who signed the petition.

Smart Growth Strategy

This proposal aligns with principle 5.5 of the City’s Smart Growth Strategy 2005, which supports opportunities that enhance industry growth and promote job creation.

Comment

The subject business has grown over the past four years and is allegedly causing nuisance that has resulted in complaints from one neighbour (the Objector) dating back to 2006.  The owner intends to relocate the business and is seeking approval for a reasonable time to allow them to operate until they can move.  If this is not granted, the City will be obliged to consider taking action against the owner for unauthorised use and development, and their business will be put at risk.

 

Only the objector, and an immediate neighbour who supports the proposal, responded to the City’s invitation to comment on the applications.  The immediate neighbour who signed the petition also supported the owner’s earlier application that was deemed refused. 

 

By granting a time-limited approval for two years, the business will be given an opportunity to operate lawfully, and to comply with conditions that will minimise the potential for nuisance.  Such a restricted approval will also provide the owner with reasonable time to relocate their business to industrial premises.  Relocation is considered to be necessary, as the business has grown to a scale that is no longer appropriate in the General Rural Zone for an indefinite period.

Statutory Compliance

Clause 4.23 of the City’s District Planning Scheme No. 2 deals with Commercial Vehicle parking.  Under this clause, Council may permit up to four commercial vehicles, up to 19 metres combined length, to be parked on Lot 148 because it is more than two hectares in area.  Adequate screening is required to ensure the vehicles are not readily visible from beyond the property boundaries, and vehicles must not be parked within building setback areas.  Clause 4.23 also contains provisions relating to vehicle starting times, noise, and minor servicing.

 

The Scheme definition of Home Business - Category 3 allows two people who are not members of the occupiers’ household to work in the administration office on Lot 148. 


The definition also enables the Council to approve the employment of up to four such employees.  The application complies with this definition as only two employees, other than the occupiers, will be employed on site (in the office).

 

Clause 6.12 of the Scheme enables Council to give planning approval to development that is already being carried out.

Issue

Determination of subdivision applications processed in the period for the month of 1 January 2009 and 31 January 2009 under delegated authority.

Detail

The Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) is responsible for determining all subdivision applications within the State.  Applications for approval are lodged with the WAPC and are referred to local governments and affected public and servicing agencies for comment.  Comments are generally required within 42 days of receiving the application, after which the Commission determines the applications.  There is a right of appeal by the applicant if aggrieved with the Commission’s decision.

 

By virtue of his position, the Chief Executive Officer is authorised to provide comments to the Commission on subdivision applications, in accordance with the City’s relevant standards and requirements, as agreed by Council from time to time through policy and various other decisions (such as local structure plans).  This authority is in turn translated to certain officers in Administration to respond to the WAPC on the City’s behalf in an ‘acting through’ capacity.

 

Those applications considered to be either controversial in nature or contrary to Council policy, are referred to Council for consideration.  All other applications are dealt with under the following categories.

 

SCU 1   Subdivision applications received which are generally consistent with an approved or Agreed Structure Plan (including Outline Development Plan and Development Guide Plan).

 

SCU 2   Subdivision applications previously supported, or not supported by Council and subsequently determined by the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) consistent with the Council’s recommendation.

 

SCU 3   Applications for extension of subdivisional approval issued by the WAPC which were previously supported by Council.

 

SCU 4   Applications for subdivision or amalgamation which result from conditions of development approval given by or on behalf of Council.

 

SCU 5   Applications for subdivision or amalgamation of lots which would allow the development of the land for uses permitted in the zone within which that land is situated including applications involving the excision of land for road widening, sump sites, school sites, etc.

 

SCU 6   Applications for subdivision or amalgamation of lots contrary to Council or WAPC Policy or are not generally consistent with an approved or Agreed Structure Plan.

 

The table below provides the details of the subdivision applications dealt with under delegated authority in the period from 1 January 2009 to 31 January 2009.

 

In summary, comments were provided on 6 subdivision applications, with all applications recommended for approval.  In total 21 new lots are proposed to be created by the stated subdivision applications.

Issue

To consider disbanding the Yanchep Two Rocks Project Advisory Group (formerly the St Andrews Project Advisory Committee).

Background

The St Andrews Project Advisory Committee was originally established by Council to provide a forum for coordinating and discussing the various aspects of the Strategic Cooperation Agreement between Tokyu Corporation, Yanchep Sun City, the Western Australian State Government and the City of Wanneroo pertaining to the St Andrews project and any Memorandum of Understanding or such other agreement reached between Tokyu Corporation and the City of Wanneroo.

 

Specific tasks of the Committee included:

 

·                To participate in the implementation and review of the existing Strategic Cooperation Agreement;

·                To develop and maintain strong lines of communication in order to ensure that the vision for St Andrews could be achieved as quickly and efficiently as possible;

The inaugural meeting of the committee was held on 23 September 2003, at which Mayor Kelly was appointed as Chairperson and Cr Loftus as Deputy Chairperson.


Detail

At the Council meeting of 18 September 2007, Council endorsed the replacement of a number of its Committees with working groups, one of these being the St Andrews Project Advisory Committee, which then became known as the St Andrews Project Advisory Group (Item GS01‑09/07 refers).

 

In the following year Council, at its meeting of 12 February 2008, resolved to support changing the name of the St Andrews District Structure Plan to the Yanchep Two Rocks District Structure Plan (MN02-02/08).  In keeping with this decision, the St Andrews Project Advisory Group changed its name to the Yanchep Two Rocks Project Advisory Group.

Comment

Notwithstanding that the Yanchep Two Rocks Project Advisory Group has not met for a number of years, District Structure Plans have been conditionally endorsed by Council and are now awaiting approval from the Western Australian Planning Commission.  It is therefore considered that, due to this progress, the Yanchep Two Rocks Project Advisory Group is no longer required and should be disbanded.  Furthermore, the group has also served its purpose in establishing strong and effective working relationships between the City and the joint venture partners for the Yanchep Two Rocks Project.

 

Since its inaugural meeting in September 2003, the group only met five times (28 April 2004, 14 July 2004, 10 November 2004, 21 February 2006 and 21 November 2006).

 

The current appointed members of the group are, from the City – Mayor Kelly, Cr Gray, the Chief Executive Officer and the Director Planning and Sustainability;  and from Tokyu Corporation Mr N Kawasaki, Mr H Seguchi and Mr C Waddell.

Statutory Compliance

Section 5.8 of the Local Government Act 1995 allows Council to establish Committees of three or more persons to assist Council to exercise the powers and discharge the duties of the Council by an Absolute Majority of Council.

Issue

To consider the installation of parking prohibitions in East Road between Wanneroo Road and Manchester Drive, Hocking.

Background

The City has received a number of complaints from users of the East Road Shopping Centre regarding inappropriate parking of vehicles near the East Road exit that is resulting in restricted sight lines and increased accident risk.

 

Refer to Attachment 1 for a location plan identifying the subject area.

Detail

East Road is a local distributor road in the City’s Functional Road Hierarchy and has been constructed as a restricted access street with controlled access places (CAPs) and a sealed pavement width of 7.4m within a 20m road reserve.  The East Road Shopping Centre has a full access crossover directly onto East Road.

 

A 2.1m wide shared path is located in the northern nature strip, adjacent to the shopping centre, on an alignment 1 metre from the kerb.

 

Between the Manchester Road intersection and Wanneroo Road, an unbroken barrier line separates the East Road traffic lanes.  The result of this is that it is an offence to parallel park at the kerb through this section of East Road.

Consultation

No public consultation was undertaken in the preparation of this report.

Comment

When parking prohibitions were first implemented near the shopping centre in 2003 (TS06-09/03 refers) no parking prohibitions were sought for the northern side of East Road as the City’s Parking and Parking Facilities Local Law makes it an offence to obstruct a pathway and there is insufficient width to park on the nature strip without parking on the pathway.

 


Despite this fact, the City’s Rangers have on a number of occasions been called to attend at the East Road Shopping Centre due to drivers parking inappropriately on the nature strip and across the pathway near the crossover. This results in reduced sightlines for exiting traffic and increased accident risk along with restricted access for pedestrians dependent on the pathway.

 

Administration believes the explicit statement of parking prohibitions, shown on drawings No 2427-1-0 (Attachment 2 refers), along the East Road frontage of the shopping centre will remove any excuse by drivers for parking in that location and simplify the work of the City’s Rangers.

 

The extent of the ‘No Stopping’ prohibition has been extended to Wanneroo Road so that drivers may not mistakenly believe the absence of explicit signage indicates that it acceptable to park there.

Statutory Compliance

The recommendations in this report are consistent with the City’s Parking and Parking Facilities Law and the Road Traffic Code 2000.

Strategic Implications

The recommendations in this report are consistent with the following City of Wanneroo’s Strategic Plan 2006-2021 goals and objectives:

 

            “Social            2.4  Improve community safety”

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

The provision of parking prohibitions incurs not only the initial cost of materials and installation of the signs but also the ongoing cost of maintenance due to vandalism and graffiti.  Current estimates for materials and installation are $100/sign, plus $50 for each additional sign on the same pole, equating to an appropriate cost of $650.  This cost is proposed to be funded from Project No. – 1431, Parking Scheme Signage and Line Marking, Various, for which a total of $30,000 has been approved by Council in the 2008/2009 Capital Works budget.

 

The enforcement of parking prohibitions over an increase number of sites also impacts on the manpower needs of Ranger Services resulting in increased staff requirements.

Issue

To consider the outputs of the Renewal Gap Modelling analysis undertaken as part of the Western Australian Asset Management Improvement (WAAMI) Program and its implications on the City’s Capital Work Program and Financial Planning.

Background

In May 2005 the City progressed its Infrastructure Asset Management journey by participating in the Western Australian Local Government Authority’s (WALGA) West Australian Asset Management Improvement (WAAMI) Program. CT Management Consultants, on behalf of WALGA, facilitated the program.

 

The WAAMI Program framework is intended to guide Councils through an Asset Management improvement process through a series of four to six, one day workshops and uses a scorecard approach to monitor progress in the four areas of Asset Management Policy, Asset Management Improvement Strategy, Asset Management Plans and Asset Management Operations. These workshops are designed to expedite progress in asset management by raising awareness, assist with the development of a Asset Management Framework, identify improvement strategies for continuous improvement and by analysing asset data to determine the Council’s asset renewal funding gap (the funding shortfall required to maintain its assets at an acceptable level of service). The aim is to achieve significant progress over the life of the Program.

 

As a result of this Program, Council adopted an Infrastructure Asset Management policy at its meeting on 27 June 2006 (Item IN16/06/06 refers). This policy emphasized the importance of funding asset renewal before creating new assets.

 

The most recent workshop in September 2008 involved the analysis of the City asset inventory data to determine the City’s Asset Renewal Funding Gap. The details of the gap analysis are presented in this report, which will assist with the City’s forward financial planning.

Detail

As part of the workshop held in September 2008, using the Moloney Asset Management System’s financial modelling software introduced as part of the WAAMI Program, the City’s infrastructure asset data was analysed to determine the current infrastructure asset renewal funding backlog and a renewal funding requirement projected over the next 20 year period.

 

The infrastructure assets that were considered in the model were Roads, Pathways, Stormwater Drainage, Road Bridges (Underpasses), Buildings, Park BBQs, Park Playground Facilities, Park Irrigation Bores and Components and Irrigation Systems in Active Parks.

 

The following details the assumptions, criteria and process used to undertake the analysis:

·                The current condition of the City’s asset stock was assessed using a 0 to 10 point rating system. The rating of 0 being brand new through to 10 being total failure or unserviceable.

·                Using engineering judgement, experience and current industry practices, the condition at which the City will intervene (intervention level) to renew the asset before it reaches failure (condition 10) was then determined. The asset life of the various asset classes was also determined at this stage. The intervention level represents the measure of the level of service the City is able to afford to provide to the community.

·                The estimated cost to renew or replace the assets was also determined for the modelling and represents the renewal cost to bring the asset to an ‘as-new’ condition when its reaches the designated intervention level.

·                A prediction of the rate of deterioration for each asset was also determined and used in the modelling. The Moloney Asset Management System’s financial modelling software includes typical deterioration curves for the various asset classes, which have been based on industry standards and experience. A typical deterioration model and its relationship to asset condition and intervention level for road asphalt surfaces is depicted in Figure 1 below.

·                The current annual average renewal and maintenance expenditure was also determined to evaluate the renewal funding gap and predict the consequential increase in maintenance expenditure should the funding for renewal be limited.

·                Finally, using the information entered in program, the Moloney modelling software produces a series of table and charts predicting the asset renewal funding demand for the next 20 to 50 year period.

 

Figure 1. Typical asset deterioration curve for Asphalt Surfaces

 

The infrastructure assets considered are grouped under the following categories:

 

1. Roads Group

roads, kerbing and pathways;

2.  Stormwater Group

stormwater pits and pipes;

3. Bridges Group

major bridges and underpasses;

4.  Buildings Group

long life building structures, short life building structures, roofs, mechanical services and building fit outs; and

5. Recreation Group

parks playground facilities, barbeques and parks irrigation systems.

Comment

The results of the analysis are as follows:-

 

Chart 1 : All Asset Groups - Annual Renewal Funding Requirement

 

The annual renewal funding requirement over the next 20 years is as shown in Chart 1. The City’s average annual capital asset renewal expenditure over the past three years has been approximately $3 million. Based on this figure, the annual renewal funding gap (renewal demand less actual funding) is currently in the order of $3.5 million for the next six years. As depicted in Chart 2, this Renewal Funding Gap will continue to increase should the City continue to limit its renewal funding to the current rate. Added to this, as a consequence, the demand for maintenance expenditure will increase due to the deteriorating assets as depicted on Chart 2a.  

 

Chart 2 : All Asset Groups – Annual Renewal Funding Gap

 

Chart 2a : All Asset Groups – Consequential increase in maintenance cost

 

Limiting the renewal funding levels to the current rate will also have an adverse impact on the overall asset condition profile, with more assets deteriorating past the intervention level and reaching condition 10. For example, Chart 2b depicts the resultant asset condition profile for asphalt surfaces with roughly 10% of this asset class above intervention levels (conditions 8, 9 and 10).

This represents 95kms of the City’s current total asphalted roads of 950kms.

 

Chart 2b: Road Asphalt Surfaces - Predicted Condition Distribution in 10 years based on Current Renewal Funding Rate

 

Chart 3 depicts the asset group that show the largest asset renewal funding gaps, which is the Roads Group followed by the Buildings Group. The Recreation group’s renewal funding gap is not significant at this stage but will require additional funding into the future, particularly with regard to the replacement of irrigation systems.

Attachments 1 and 2 provide a breakdown of the major infrastructure assets that have been considered in this modelling exercise.


It should be noted that there are still other assets that need to be included in future revisions of the Renewal Model, which will include assets like conservation fencing, car parks, park lighting, floodlighting and other park assets (including structures).

 

Attachment 2 depicts the City’s total annual renewal funding requirement for each of the Asset Groups over the next 10 years. An extract of the first five year annual renewal funding requirement is summarised in the table below:-

These funding figures, which represents the minimum funding allocation toward infrastructure asset renewal, will form the basis for developing the City’s 2009/10 Draft 5 year Capital Works Program.

 

The renewal requirement for the Roads Group primarily comprises of resurfacing of sealed road surfaces. The predicted funding requirement for 2009/2010 is  $3.1 million towards Asphalt Road reseals and $1.5 million towards Spray Sealed Roads. The renewal funding requirement for the first five years is as shown in the table below.

Chart 5 : Buildings Group – Predicted Annual Renewal Expenditure

 

The renewal funding requirement for the Recreation Group at this stage covers certain assets (i.e. irrigation systems for active parks, irrigation bores and bore components, barbeques and playground equipment).

 

There is no significant renewal funding requirements for the Bridges and Stormwater Groups as these assets are fairly young with asset lives of over 90 years. These assets will not have any significant impact in the short term. Secondly, the pavement component of sealed roads will not impact on the renewal funding program as they will achieve asset lives of over 85 years, provided that the surface seal is maintained and renewed appropriately.

 

The WAAMI model relies on the accuracy and reliability of the data that is entered into the program using the condition data, and to deteriorate the asset based on deterioration models specific to the asset being analysed. The major parameters that will impact on the modelling process are the adopted intervention levels (service levels) and anticipated asset lives of each of the asset classes. Changes to these parameters reflects the standard to which the City maintains its infrastructure assets and also its financial position with respect to the written down value of its infrastructure asset stock. These parameters must form part of Council’s agreed operational standards and financial policies. The parameters used in this model are based on current industry standards and  engineering judgement and do not necessarily reflect the City’s current policies. The City’s current policy with respect to the life of infrastructure asset needs to be reviewed to represent current industry standards.

 

In order to ensure that the City’s financial position with respect to asset renewal funding requirements is kept up to date and reliable, the renewal modelling exercise needs to undertaken on a regular basis and reviewed annually. It is also crucial that the collection of infrastructure asset data, recording of asset conditions and verification continue to be undertaken to provide a reliable source of information for the renewal modelling exercise.

Strategic Implications

The allocation of funding toward the renewal of assets is consistent with the City of Wanneroo’s Strategic Plan (2006-2021) objectives and outcomes:

 

“4.3            Improve Asset Management

  4.3.1         Develop and apply asset management principles to support the maintenance and management of public infrastructure and other assets.”

Policy Implications

The allocation of the required renewal funding requirement in the City’s Capital Work Budget Program supports the City’s Infrastructure Asset Management Policy endorsed by Council in June 2006.

Financial Implications

The results of the Asset Renewal Modelling exercise will assist with the City in the development of a sustainable 10 year financial model and will also enable informed decisions to be made with respect to the implications of funding new infrastructure versus renewal and rehabilitation of existing infrastructure assets.

 

It is proposed that the predicted five year asset renewal funding requirement now forms the basis of the City’s 2009/2010 Draft Five Year Capital Works Budget Program for renewal projects.

Issue

To consider a petition PT02-02/09 requesting alteration to the proposed road widening in the vicinity of lot 17 Hawkins Road, Jandabup.

Background

A petition signed by seven residents requesting Council’s consideration regarding the proposed realignment of Hawkins Road, Jandabup was received by Council at its meeting of 10 February 2009. Refer to Attachment 1 for full details of the petition. In addition there are “Notes in support of petition to Council” provided with the petition.

 

Refer to Attachment 2 for the location plan identifying the area.

Detail

The petition raises concerns with some aspects of road widening and the effect it will have on an existing home, gardens and other native, pine and gum trees at lot 17 Hawkins Road. A review of the extent of the road realignment and land acquisition is requested including consultation with affected parties. 

 

This section of Hawkins Road between Trichet Road and Wirrega Road is at the end of its useful life. The road was built about 40 years ago and apart from the very poor road pavement condition, the vertical and horizontal geometry requires significant upgrading to current design standards. It should also be noted that a petition was received in 2006 seeking in part an upgrade to Hawkins Road and a review of speed limits/signs (IN03-06/06 PT01-04/06 refers).

 

In order to achieve the upgrading of the Hawkins and Badgerup Roads to an 80km/h design speed a Land Requirement Plan, Drawing No’s E786-8-2 and E786-9-1 (refer Attachment 3), was prepared in 1994 showing a 300m radius. The land requirement plans were reviewed in 2008 following completion of the preliminary design based on an 80km/h design speed, refer Attachment 4. The review concluded that the existing 20m road reserve rather than the proposed 25m is sufficient and that in turn resulted in a slight reduction (nearly 20%) in the land requirement on the corner at lot 17 Hawkins Road.    

 

On completion of the preliminary design a revised plan was sent to the four land owners located on the inside of the two bends on Hawkins Road seeking acceptance of this plan to be used for the subdivision process and road widening.


Three of the four owners have signed their acceptance with the fourth accepting, subject to the tree on the corner (Pinus Pinea) not being removed. The location of this pine tree, however, would be in the middle of the planned roadway.

 

An amount of $370,334 is currently allocated in the 2008/2009 Roadworks Capital Works Program for the first stage of Hawkins Road upgrade - PR1489, for part of the straight sections of road between Trichet and Wirrega Roads. It is intended to seek stage 2 funding to complete the road upgrade as part of the 2009/10 capital works budget, subject to land acquisition.

Consultation

Following completion of the preliminary design plan in 2008, the land requirements were reviewed, with revised plans sent to affected land owners to seek their acceptance. Following the return of the acceptance letter from the owner of Lot 17, three officers from the City met with the owner on site to discuss the concern in relation to the pine tree near the corner. Consideration of other options was requested including minimising the land requirement on the corner and the "shifting" of the road northward toward the lake, also consideration of a reduction of the design speed was requested and the City's surveyor pegging the proposed land requirement in order to clarify where the boundary would be.

 

Several meetings have been held with the owner and the Ward Councillors in an effort to resolve the concern regarding the impact on the property at Lot 17. While the option of "shifting" the road northward toward the lake was not deemed practical, a compromise is proposed to reduce the design speed to 70km/h, after concurrence with Main Roads WA, thereby significantly reducing the impact on Lot 17.

Comment

This section of Hawkins Road is in urgent need of upgrading both in terms of the pavement structure and the geometry of the road. The severe crests and dips in the road, as well as the two sharp corners need to be brought up to current design standards. The total upgrade however, is dependent on land resumption for road widening.

 

Since 1994 the road-widening proposal for Hawkins Road has been available on plans in order to advise residents who were contemplating further improvements on their property of a known constraint. It was established to preserve the future widening option.

 

In the petition, point 3 raises the concern of the location of the house in relation to the future road widening. The approved house plans dated January 2004 however, clearly show the location of the proposed new boundary and its proximity to the house. The minimum setback from the proposed new boundary has been complied with.

 

A number of meetings have been held with the owner of lot 17 to try and resolve the issues raised in relation to the proximity of the proposed road reserve to the house, as well as the pine tree and the alignment clash with the centre line of the 80km/h preliminary design. Various options were raised and considered; including reducing the land requirement on the corner of lot 17 by shifting the road alignment further north toward the lake, refer Attachment 5. As can be seen from the attached plan this option would be complex, time consuming and costly in terms of requirements likely to be imposed by the Department of Environment and Conservation and is not recommended.

Another consideration requested was for a reduction in the design speed from 80km/h to 70km/h. Again a preliminary design plan was drawn for the 70km/h, refer Attachment 6, prior to consultation with Main Roads WA. At this meeting existing and proposed speed limits were discussed at length as well as other issues including existing traffic volumes, speeds and the number and location of crossovers etc.

 

The conclusion of this meeting was a compromise solution to design this section of Hawkins Road to a 70km/h design speed and retain the posted speed of 60km/h. This is in line with design standards and is seen as an acceptable solution to both Main Roads WA and the City. It also considerably reduces the impact on the property at lot 17 Hawkins Road with a land requirement of 538m2 as shown on Land Requirement Plan, Drawing No 2136-5-2, refer Attachment 7, compared to the revised 2008 plan requiring 1353m2, and the 1994 plan requiring 1612m2.

 

Based on this design an arborist was engaged to assess the two large pine trees and gum tree still located within the proposed road reserve. The arborist concluded the three trees were unlikely to survive due to root damage that would be caused by the level difference and excavation of the table drains.

 

The design has therefore been further modified to the absolute minimum horizontal curve for a 70km/h design speed (see Attachment 8). This absolute minimum design realigns the road much further away from the property and results in both large pine trees and the gum tree remaining within lot 17. The land requirement has been reduced to 308m2 as shown on Land Requirement Plan, Drawing No 2136-5-3, refer Attachment 9.

 

Administration will continue to consult with the owner of Lot 17 and provide survey on site to indicate the proposed boundary location.

 

The recommendation is therefore to proceed with the 70km/h design using the absolute minimum horizontal curve adjacent to Lot 17 and again seek acceptance of the revised Land Requirement Plan, drawing no 2136-5-3, from the four affected landowners, by compulsory acquisition if necessary.

Financial Implications

The roadworks on Hawkins Road from Trichet Road to Wirrega Road have been scheduled over two financial years – 2008/2009 and 2009/2010. $370,334 has been allocated within the 2008/2009 Roadworks Capital Budget for Stage 1 reconstruction. After completion of the detailed design and cost estimate, additional funds will be listed for allocation in 2009/2010 Roadworks Capital Works Program.

 

Funding for the acquisition of land is provided from the Land Acquisition Reserve.

Issue

To consider the Financial Activity Statements for the period ended 31 December 2008 and revised budgets as a result of the Mid-Year Review.

Background

Regulation 34(1) of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations 1996 requires a local government to prepare each month a statement of financial activity, presented according to nature and type, by program, or by business unit.  Administration has opted to present the statement of financial activity by nature and type and in a similar format to that presented in the 2008/2009 Annual Budget.  This format separates Revenue and Expenses from Other Revenue and Expenses and provides improved disclosure of City’s underlying Operating Result.

 

The Financial Activity Statement is in the form of an Income Statement, which compares year to date actual income and expenses with the year to date budget, shows variances and the adopted and revised budgets (if any).  It is accompanied by a Balance Sheet together with information relating to Capital Projects, an Investment Portfolio Summary and Statement of Net Current Assets.

 

In addition to the above, Regulation 34(5) of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations 1996 requires a local government to adopt a percentage or value, calculated in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, to be used in statements of financial activity for reporting material variances.  For the 2008/2009 financial year Council has adopted 10% for the reporting of variances, which is in line with previous years.

 

Furthermore Regulation 33A of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations 1996 requires a local government to carry out a review of its annual budget for that year between 1 January and 31 March in each year.  Within 30 days after the review is carried out, the review is to be submitted to the Council for consideration.  Council is to consider the review submitted to it and is to determine whether or not to adopt the review, any part of the review or any recommendations made in the review.

Detail

The following details are provided on the Financial Activity Statement for the period ended 31 December 2008 and revised budget arising from the mid year budget review:-


Income Statement (Refer to Attachment 1)

Net Result                                                       $ million

Year to Date Actual                                        57.033

Year to Date Budget                                      40.368

Year to Date Variance                                                16.664 (+41%)

Full Year Adopted Budget                             49.440

Full Year Revised Budget                            42.384

 

Total from Operations                                     $ million

Year to Date Actual                                        37.316

Year to Date Budget                                      30.626

Year to Date Variance                                                   6.690 (+22%)

Full Year Adopted Budget                               -3.169 (deficit)

Full Year Revised Budget                                -0.048 (deficit)

 

The following information and commentaries are provided on key aspects of the financial result: -

Revenues                                                         $ million

Year to Date Actual                                          84.989

Year to Date Budget                                        83.860

Year to Date Variance                                                    1.129 (+1%)

Full Year Adopted Budget                             102.521

Full Year Revised Budget                            102.950

 

Rates

Provision has been made in the revised budget for potential rate refunds arising from successful objections to valuations.

 

Accordingly, the City has revised down full year rates revenue to $64.716 million, a decrease of $0.601 million (-1%) from the original budget, to allow for the potential rates refund and to cater for the impacts from the general slowdown in developments.

 

Contributions, Reimbursements and Donations

Actual is behind budget by $0.203 million (-29%) on the year to date receipts which is primarily due to a lower than budget contribution for Parks Operations. It is anticipated that Parks Operations contribution will continue the current trend thus the budget for this category is revised down to $1.111 million, a reduction of $0.226 million (-17%) comparing to the original budget.

 

Interest Earnings

During the year, the world is adversely affected by financial/credit crises and Reserve Bank of Australia had reduced rates by 4% in total since last September with the cash rate now standing at 3.25%.  However, the City had been performing extremely well in its investment activities as the City foresaw the downward trend of interest rates around Sept last year and had been placing cash at high yield term deposits yielding around 8% for 6 months term throughout the year.

 

Year to date interest earnings is substantially above budget, reflecting a favourable variance of $1.923 million (+62%). Full year budget is also revised to the amounts of $7.367 million, reflecting a better than original budget variance of $1.397 million (+23%).

Expenses                                                         $ million

Year to Date Actual                                        -47.673

Year to Date Budget                                       -53.235

Year to Date Variance                                         5.562 (+10%)

Full Year Adopted Budget                             -105.691

Full Year Revised Budget                            -102.998

 

Employee Costs

Representing approximately 43% of the full year budgeted expenses, Employee Costs are currently below budget, by $1.670 million (+7%).  The main factors affecting this favourable variance are unfilled vacancies across the organisation, however this must be considered in context with an increase in Contract Labour costs.  During the mid year review Administration determined all existing vacant positions would not be filled pending the outcome of organisational restructuring, demonstrating prudent and responsible financial management. Accordingly, the full year forecast for Employee Expenses, including Salaries and Wages, Superannuation, Training and Conferences has projected a total savings of $1.719 million  (+4%) by year-end.

 

Materials and Contracts

Overall, the year to date expenses are below budget by $2.566 million (+16%), mainly due to the timing differences between the actual material and contracts works and the budget spreads which were loaded on a pro-rata basis.

 

During the mid year review, each Service Unit scrutinized their expenses targeting at achieving maximum possible savings. Accordingly the full year budget is now revised to $30,994 million, a reduction of $0.752 million (2%) comparing to original budget. These savings are mainly represented by an increase in Contract Labour Cost ($0.903 million) and unbudgeted levy expenses for Commonwealth Bank Guarantees on deposits ($0.347 million) which is offset by decreases in the Materials Cost (-$0.651 million), Fuel Costs (-$0.530 million), External Vehicle & Equipment Hire (-$0.201 million), Software Maintenance (- $0.190 million), Bank Charges and Interest Expenses (-$0.100 million) and various immaterial items (-$0.300 million).

 

Utilities

Utilities year to date are under budget to the value of $0.421 million (+22%), which is primarily due to the variation in seasonal demand throughout the year.  A slight annual improvement of $0.217 million (+6%) is now forecasted by year-end.

 

Interest Expenses

Year to date expenditure amounts to $0.882 million, which is below budget by 16%. This variance is only due to timing difference as repayment is made on a quarterly basis to Western Australia Treasury Corporation while budget amount was loaded on a pro-rata basis. Interest Expenses will come close to adopted budget on the full year basis.

 


Other Revenue and Expenses                         $ million

(Excludes Contributions of Physical Assets)

Year to Date Actual                                        10.988

Year to Date Budget                                        -5.620

Year to Date Variance                                                  16.245 (+309%)

Full Year Adopted Budget                             22.609

Full Year Revised Budget                            12.433

 

In both categories of Grants and Subsidies and Contributions, Reimbursements and Donations, year to date figures show that the City has already received $3.489 million and $0.495 million respectively. Negative variances comparing to year to date budget are primarily timing differences.

 

It is anticipated that the following additional grants and subsidies will be achieved from the Federal and State Governments by year-end during the mid year review process:-

$ million

·                State Black Spot                                                                             0.468

·                Road Rehabilitation                                                                        0.800

·                Regional and Local Community Infrastructure Program                0.744

·                Hepburn Avenue (MRWA)                                                            0.266

·                Wanneroo Showgrounds Clubroom                                              *0.670

*No written confirmation received from State Government at this time

 

In addition to the above, an extraordinary receipt of $0.726 million representing an insurance payment towards the replacement of the Wanneroo Clubrooms is also anticipated. A resulting adjustment of +$2.323 million (+21%) to the year-end budget is therefore proposed to this category, which will be offset by corresponding increases to the Capital Works Program.

With Town Planning Schemes, it is difficult to forecast when contributions will be received and currently the amount received by the City is $12.909 million, which is ahead of the year to date budget, however full year revenue has been projected down by 10%.  Some expenses have been included year to date, equalling $5.905 million, which is linked to land acquisition and road construction projects.  Full year expenses have also been forecasted down by 15%.

 

Contributions of Physical Assets                    $ million

Year to Date Actual                                           8.729

Year to Date Budget                                      15.000

Year to Date Variance                                                   6.271 -(42%)

Full Year Adopted Budget                             30.000

Full Year Revised Budget                              30.000

With regard to Physical Assets contributed by Developers, the City had received the following by mid-year: 9.1km’s of Roads, 6.3 km’s of Footpaths, 8.8 km’s of Drainage and 84.140m2 of Parks.  No Buildings have been handed over.  Additional assets are expected to be handed over by year-end, likely to be in line with budget.

It should be noted that the year to date actual expenditure relates to the cash position and does not include commitments.  Part of the commitments indicated above relate to works to be carried out in 2009/2010.

 

Furthermore, a thorough review of all capital projects has been carried out by responsible officers to accurately ascertain the status of each project during the mid year review.  Attachment 4 outlines all projects with revised budget forecasts, reflecting an overall savings in internal funding sources of $0.791 million (ie Municipal, Reserves and Loan funding).

* Revised budget per mid year review

 

Investment Portfolio Summary (Refer to Attachment 3)

Administration has maintained a conservative investment strategy with 100% capital protection as a prime objective.  Global economic activity and financial market movements have been monitored on an ongoing basis to ensure the City professionally and competently performs a responsible and prudent investment strategy.

 

As at 31 December 2008 the City holds an investment portfolio (cash and cash equivalents) of $173.402 million.  The current yield for the portfolio is 7.29% while benchmark return reflects 5.13% (UBS Warburg Bank Bill Index).

 

The City has secured a 2 years term deposit of $48 millionwith Macquarie Bank on 1 December 2008, providing an attractive yield fixed at 5.87%, inclusive of government guarantee.

 

To ensure the safety of our bank deposits, Government guarantees were required from 28 November 2008, which will provide the assurance of bank deposits being 100% secured.


The costs are incurred in the form of a levy or have been absorbed by the related financial institutions through negotiation.

Comments

The operating result to 31 December 2008 is generally progressing well against the year to date budget.  Following a detailed mid year budget review process the overall operating position is forecast to improve from a budgeted operating shortfall of -$3.169 million to -$0.048 million.

 

The major contributors to this result are:-

·                     Increase in Interest income                 $1.4 million

·                     Decrease in Rates income                   $0.6 million

·                     Decrease in Employee Costs               $1.7 million

·                     Decrease in Contracts & Materials     $0.7 million

 

The Capital Works program is also progressing well, and whilst there are cost overruns on some projects, particularly the Aquamotion project, these are offset by savings on other projects with an overall projected savings in internal funding sources of $0.791 million, of which, $0.112 million relates to Municipal funding.

 

The overall Capital Works program has increased by $3.7 million from the original budget, with the majority of the increase related to increases in grant funded projects.

 

The abovementioned positive outcomes will further improve the City’s funding opening position, thus place the City in a stronger financial position leading into the 2009/10 Budget process.

Statutory Compliance

The monthly financial report for the period ended 31 December 2008 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 the adoption of Budget Principles to guide the development of the 2009/10 Annual Budget together with the Ten-Year Financial Plan.

Background

In 2007, projections for the WA domestic economy over the medium term was for the annual growth rate to be maintained in the vicinity of 6% despite the global downturn, due principally to confidence of continued demand internationally for commodities.  Since that time, the financial crisis has hit the world markets and the downturn has now expanded into a recession being experienced in many areas of the globe. 

 

In less than 12 months, the economic climate has changed dramatically and importantly has flowed through to the local economy and is affecting Wanneroo, particularly through reduced demand for land and development activity.  Consequently growth projections need to be reviewed.

 

As Wanneroo is a major land supply area, for a number of years the residential growth rate has been running at 7-8% annually, together with strong demand for industrial land.  This situation changed midway through 2007/08 and is as yet showing no signs of recovery. 

 

The following table clearly depicts the extent of growth in Wanneroo since July 2000 -

With this growth comes the added responsibility of providing and maintaining a corresponding increase in infrastructure, including roads, parks and community facilities.  Whilst developers are undertaking a substantial proportion of the road and park development, the City is now in a cycle that is seeing significant volumes of infrastructure being handed over for ongoing maintenance.

 

The following table highlights the direct impact on additional operating expenditure to facilitate the maintenance of new public open space being provided through subdivision activity.  Based on current service standards, maintenance costs for developed parks are calculated at an annual rate of $17,500 per hectare, including materials, plant and labour.  In the case of labour, based on current service standards, every additional 20 hectares requires an additional Parks team (three persons) plus necessary plant.

Detail

The mid-year budget review has been an opportunity to assess the performance of the City against the 2008/09 Budget and then project forward to the next financial year and beyond. 

 

Whilst the current budget provides for an operating deficit of $3.17m, there have been a number of factors that are improving this position, in particular:-

·                Additional income from interest on investments;

·                Considerable savings in salary and wages due to ongoing vacancies, albeit this is offset to some degree by an increase in contract labour expenses; and

·                Savings in fuel costs.

 

Given that it now appears that the effects of the global financial crisis will carry through to the next financial year (possibly a number of years before full recovery), then it was considered prudent to prepare a high level projection for 2009/10 to provide an early indication of the operating position.  As it is difficult to accurately forecast in this volatile and uncertain climate, a conservative approach was taken initially, based on the following assumptions:-

·                Retain growth at approximately 4%, which impacts on the potential increase in rate revenue by approximately $2-$2.5m;

·                Provide for full year operation of Aquamotion and new Wanneroo Library complex (income and expenditure);

·                Reduction in Interest earnings of approximately $2m due to lower interest rates and cost of government levy;

·                Increase in Interest expenditure ($0.5m) to reflect actual loan repayment in line with drawdown;

·                No increase in establishment, but allowance for all vacant positions to be filled and payment of the UCA/EBA index at approximately $5m (full cost of current establishment);

·                Increases to contracts and materials of approximately $0.5; and

·                Substantial increase in electricity costs in the order of $1m.

 

In simple terms, this demonstrated that revenue potential could be down by at least $4m, whilst expenditure increased in the order of 14%, creating in a worst-case scenario a potential operating shortfall of $13m.

 

To address this potential, immediate action was taken by the Chief Executive Officer to put a freeze on filling vacant positions (subject to case by case review) and establish a target to reduce the 2009/10 salary and wages budget by $5m and operating expenditure by 8%.  This level of constraint is substantial, but considered essential in the current climate.  Whilst every effort is being made to address this through efficiencies and re-prioritisation, there will be an impact on services.

 

This process has improved the forecast for the current financial year to a zero operating result (balanced).  Whilst the 2009/10 Budget is currently in development, significant improvement is anticipated, with the final position subject to funding decisions.

 

Whilst it is well recognised that “growth” councils face significant challenges to maintain financial sustainability, the current economic crisis has reinforced the need to be prudent and apply sound financial practices in its budget development process and long-term commitments.  Essential in this process is identifying available funding capacity for Capital Works, together with a Rating Strategy.

 

CAPITAL WORKS

Through the use of Loan, special Reserve and Grant funds, the City has been able to plan and deliver a large Capital Works Program, with a substantial increase over the last two financial years.  This was a prudent move at the time, due to the level of population growth experienced and the City urgently needing to provide corresponding level of strategic community infrastructure.

 

During the development of the 2008/09 Budget, it was highlighted that whilst the Five-Year Capital Works Program (adopted in 2007/08) listed projects to the value of $63.5m for 2008/09, that was recognised as not viable and ultimately reduced down to $49.7m.  With carry forward projects (and funding), the total Capital Works Program for 2008/09 as adopted was $94.6m.  Importantly, this level of expenditure relied on Municipal Funding of $14m, including $6.2m carry forward.

 

To reduce the 2008/09 Budget down to a sustainable level, it was necessary to push back a range of projects to subsequent years.  At that time, it was highlighted that ultimately the outer years will also need to be reviewed downward, unless alternative funding can be sourced.  To facilitate this, the Capital Works Program (including new non-operating initiatives) is currently being reviewed with a view to extending it out to a sustainable ten-year plan. 

 

Indicatively, Municipal funding capacity is being based on a balanced operating budget, which on current terms would deliver approximately $22m annually (with depreciation written back).  Administration has developed a funding strategy to achieve the best long-term sustainable outcome from this available funding source, with the following apportionment proposed for consideration:-

RATING STRATEGY

The Western Australian Local Government Association (WALGA) and eight Perth Metropolitan Growth Councils engaged Price Waterhouse Coopers (PWC) to undertake a review of the rate setting processes and financial strategies for the Outer Metropolitan Growth Councils of WA.  This resulted in the preparation of a report entitled ‘Western Australian Local Government Association Rate setting processes, funding amenity and service sustainability of WA outer metropolitan growth councils’.

 

The objective of the review was to conduct independent analysis of the various rating and financial strategies, to offer Councils a deeper insight into the likely impacts of each strategy on long-range financial sustainability.  Based on information provided by each of the local governments, the study examines the rate setting approach used by the eight Councils in the context of financial strategies to meet community expectations and sustain community infrastructure.

 

When comparing the rate setting processes of each of the participating councils, the following summary statement was included in reference to Wanneroo:-

 

“Wanneroo has the largest population of the Councils included in this study. Council forecasts indicate that Wanneroo is expected to return an operating deficit every year over the period FY2007 to FY2018 (as is the case for Serpentine-Jarrahdale). When considering operating as well as non-operating revenues, the Council is projected to generate net surplus, however given that scheme and non-cash contributions received by the Council are restricted and cannot be used to fund operations the nonoperating revenues are less significant when considering long-term financial sustainability.


Wanneroo has the highest proportion of properties on minimum rates, and a rate in the $ for differential general rates that is the second lowest, indicating potential scope to increase. The Council’s asset renewal gap as a proportion of non current assets is the least significant relative to the other seven Councils, however reducing this gap may still be a consideration given the Council’s projected operating deficits.”

 

The conclusion and recommendations stated in the study are:-

“The Perth outer metropolitan growth councils are characterised by higher population growth combined with stronger demand for provision of new infrastructure and extra services particularly in greenfield areas, to meet the rising needs of their communities. In this rapidly changing environment, and facing sustainability challenges not shared by nongrowth Councils, there are a number of significant challenges facing the Outer Metropolitan Growth Councils in WA. In particular, the current level of rates generally appears to be insufficient to meet all the rising community expectations for better services whilst also eliminating the asset renewal gap of the Councils.

Ultimately, based on recent trends in cost growth, with most Perth outer metro growth Councils experiencing real rises in expenditures of 2-5% per annum [over CPI], Councils will need to increase rates and the level of other user charges by this same magnitude to retain the current level of financial sustainability. However, to improve financial sustainability, it is likely that Councils may require even higher rate increases.”

 

Strategies and best practice processes need to be adopted in order for growth Councils to respond to increasing community demands, including:-

·                pursue more financial support to provide infrastructure and service levels whilst also progressively reducing asset renewal gaps:

o      Government support – by way of grants to fund particular projects or to specifically reduce infrastructure funding gaps;

o      developer contributions – considering the impact on housing affordability for residents;

o      own-source revenue – compared to the average fiscal for urban fringe Councils nationally, own-source revenue of the Perth outer metro growth Councils makes up a smaller proportion of fiscal capacity. This may indicate capacity to increase own-source revenues gradually by up to 25% on average across the eight Councils (i.e. over a number of years). However, while fiscal capacity may assist to understand capacity to pay, willingness to pay is more difficult to measure and will ultimately impact on the level of rates and own-source revenue that can be passed on to a

o      local community. In addition revenue increases should be subject to community expectations for the corresponding level of services received;

·                consider asset rationalisation and divestments, particularly for rundown or under-utilised assets, to both reduce the total asset renewal gap, to fund progressive reduction of the remaining gap/or to fund new multi-purpose infrastructure;

·                adjust service levels by actively managing service expectations of residents. Councils could offer their communities some different levels of service quality linked to different levels of real rate increases. In greenfield areas, community expectations are often driven by developers and these should be monitored and defined from the inception of a new development (rather than being debated and service qualities lift post completion of the development; and

·                consider the steps for better practice rate setting on an annual and on-going basis in order to better set benchmarks and targets for long-term financial performance.

Comment

As Wanneroo is a growth Council, it will continue to be subject to financial challenges in balancing the delivery of new facilities and services against maintaining existing services and facilities.  It has been estimated that outer metropolitan growth councils are experiencing real increases in expenditures of between 2 and 5% above CPI per annum.  This imposes challenges on achieving corresponding increases in revenue, particularly the City’s ‘own source’ income areas such as rates and other user charges to retain the current level of financial sustainability.

 

The WALGA Rate Setting Report and earlier Systemic Sustainability Study report ‘The Journey – Sustainability into the Future’, both advocate a best practice approach for rate setting processes, that includes the following steps:-

 

1.             Establish the opening position

2.             Create/Review service standards

3.             Establish expenditure estimates

4.             Determine asset renewal levels

5.             Set fees and charges

6.             Establish non-rate revenues

7.             Determine financing options

8.             Establish proposed rate levels

9.             Consider ratepayer capacity to pay

10.         Overall considerations

 

This process is supported and would assist in delivering improved financial sustainability by:

·                Linking operating expenditure to service levels

·                Embedding asset renewal levels

·                Ensuring ratepayer capacity to pay is a fundamental element of the rating strategy

 

In addition, PWC also make the following recommendation:

“In the interests of promoting financial sustainability whilst striving to meet increasing community demands, it is critical that Councils ensure that they are raising rate revenue as well as fees and user charges (where not constrained by regulation) at an adequate level and based on sound rate setting process. The core of this is rating capacity given it is the predominant independent source of funds.”

 

The City’s ‘Facilities Hire and Use Policy’ provides for the subsidised use of facilities by a range of user groups.  In addition, it includes a “fair play statement of principles” which seeks to protect the interest of the City’s ratepayers by restricting the level of subsidy to individuals and groups from outside of the Wanneroo district.  The annual impact of this policy is a subsidy level in the order of $1.5m or 3% of rates.

 

Broadening of the revenue base would reduce dependence on rates, however rates will remain the major revenue source for most local governments.

 

In order to prepare a budget in a prudent, responsible and financially sustainable manner, it is proposed that the following Principles will be employed in guiding the development of the 2009/10 Annual Budget, together with the ten-year financial plan:-

 

1.             The budget shall be prepared consistent with the Best Practice Rating Strategy as detailed in the PWC report.

2.             The aim is to achieve a ‘balanced’ operating budget (Improved actual performance will enhance the closing position).

3.             Extraordinary income (such as proceeds from sale of land) shall not be used as a source of funds in the same financial year as it is proposed to be received. (Funds will be deposited in a Reserve to be called on in subsequent years).

4.             The budgeted income for Investments shall be based on an average market return as measured against the UBS Warburg 90 Day Bank Bill Index and/or the Cash Rate (unless a higher level is certain). 

5.             The draft 2009/10 Budget, along with the ten-year financial plan will be prepared based on a rate in the dollar increase of CPI plus 3-6% with growth factored in at 4%.

6.             The adoption of the ‘expenditure by category’ table to reflect the Municipal funding capacity.

 

Through the implementation of these long term financial planning practices, the City will effectively manage its funding capacity and when surpluses are achieved, consolidate its Reserve funds to meet future service expansion.  In addition, the City will immediately achieve an enviable record in asset management, by eliminating the ‘asset renewal gap’ and demonstrating real financial sustainability.

Statutory Compliance

The budget development will be in accordance with relevant requirements of the Local Government Act 1995 and related Regulations.

Strategic Implications

The adoption of the defined budget principles is consistent with the City’s 2006-2-21 Strategic Plan and meets the following Outcome Objectives –

“4.3       Improve asset management

4.5       Improve financial viability

4.6       Maintain a high standard of governance and accountability”

Policy Implications

A review of the Facilities Hire and Use Policy would be required to achieve a reduction in foregone revenue associated with subsidised use of facilities.

Financial Implications

The Principles will provide guidance for the development of the annual budget and ten year financial plan.

Issue

To consider making a recommendation to the Director General of the Department of Local Government and Regional Development that the basis for rating the various land be changed from unimproved value to gross rental value.

Background

Section 6.28 of the Local Government Act 1995 requires the Minister to determine the method of valuation of land to be used by a local government and publish a notice of the determination in the Government Gazette.

 

In determining the method of valuation to be used by a local government, the Minister is to have regard to the principle that the basis for a rate on any land is to be either: -

a)             Where the land is used predominantly for rural purposes, the unimproved value of the land; and

b)             Where the land is used predominantly for non-rural purposes, the gross rental value of the land.

 

This authority has been delegated to the Director General of the Department of Local Government and Regional Development.

 

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

Administration considers that the following properties currently valued on unimproved values should be valued on gross rental values pursuant to Section 6.28 of the Act:-

1.       Lots 201-208, 286-294 and 9502 DP61690, Lots 1400-1426 DP61692, Lots 809-820, 830-833 and 941-944 DP61720 Flynn Drive, Carramar

On 20 July 2007 the City received a subdivision application for Lot 1 D62965 Flynn Drive, Carramar.  The City supported the subdivision application and a letter was sent to the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) on 13 August 2007.  WAPC subsequently approved the subdivision application on 21 February 2008 and Lots 201-208, 286-294 and 9502 DP61690, Lots 1400-1426 DP61692, Lots 809-820, 830-833, 941-944 and 9106 DP61720 Flynn Drive, Carramar were created (Attachment 1 refers).

The current method of valuation of land used for each of these lots is unimproved value.  Following  subdivision, the predominant use of the properties, apart from Lot 9106, will change to non-rural.  In order to maintain an equitable rates base and in accordance with Section 6.28 of the Local Government Act 1995, it is recommended that the method of valuing the land be changed from unimproved value to gross rental value for Lots 201-208, 286-294 and 9502 DP61690, Lots 1400-1426 DP61692, Lots 809-820, 830-833 and 941-944 DP61720 Flynn Drive, Carramar.  The remaining lot being Lot 9106 is to remain rated on the unimproved value method.

2.       Lots 304-312, 321-324, 335-338, 349-361 DP60264 Mirrabooka Avenue, Landsdale

On 5 September 2006 the City received a subdivision application for Lot 56 D19511 Landsdale Road, Landsdale.  The City supported the subdivision application and a letter was sent to the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) on 8 February 2007.  WAPC subsequently approved the subdivision application on 8 March 2007 and Lots 304-312, 321-324, 335-338, 349-361 DP60264 Mirrabooka Avenue, Landsdale were created (Attachment 2 refers).

The current method of valuation of land used for each of these lots is unimproved value.  Following subdivision, the predominant use of the properties will change to non-rural.  In order to maintain an equitable rates base and in accordance with Section 6.28 of the Local Government Act 1995, it is recommended that the method of valuing the land be changed from unimproved value to gross rental value.

3.       Lots 201-228 DP60406 Tony Martin Way, Darch

On 3 September 2007 the City received a subdivision application for Lot 17 D18075 Tony Martin Way, Darch.  The City supported the subdivision application and a letter was sent to the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) on 12 September 2007.  WAPC subsequently approved the subdivision application on 5 December 2007 and Lots 201-228 DP60406 Tony Martin Way, Darch were created (Attachment 3 refers).

The current method of valuation of land used f for each of these lots is unimproved value.  Following subdivision, the predominant use of the properties will change to non-rural.  In order to maintain an equitable rates base and in accordance with Section 6.28 of the Local Government Act 1995, it is recommended that the method of valuing the land be changed from unimproved value to gross rental value.

4.       Lots 501-524, 543-545 and 9501 DP59234, Lots 525-539, 546-547, 561, 571-572, and 582-583 DP59235, Lots 548-559, 635 and 9505 DP59238, Lots 562-570, 573-581, 584 and 593 DP59239 Christable Way, Fallon Road and Furniss Road, Landsdale

On 30 October 2007 the City received a subdivision application for Lot 1271 D247639 Madeley Street, Landsdale.  The City supported the subdivision application and a letter was sent to the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) on 27 November 2007.  WAPC subsequently approved the subdivision application on 16 January 2008 and Lots 501-524, 543-545 and 9501 DP59234, Lots 525-539, 546-547, 561, 571-572, and 582-583 DP59235, Lots 548-559, 635 and 9505 DP59238, Lots 562-570, 573-581, 584 and 593 DP59239 Christable Way, Fallon Road and Furniss Road, Landsdale were created (Attachment 4 refers).

The current method of valuation of land used for each of these lots is unimproved value.  Following subdivision, the predominant use of the properties will change to non-rural.  In order to maintain an equitable rates base and in accordance with Section 6.28 of the Local Government Act 1995, it is recommended that the method of valuing the land be changed from unimproved value to gross rental value.

Consultation

Guidelines issued by the Department of Local Government and Regional Development recommend that affected property owners be informed of proposed changes to the method of valuing their property, although a modified consultation process may be considered where the change is driven by large scale subdivisions.

 

With regard to the properties listed above, consultation was not considered necessary, as the request to have the valuation of land method changed from unimproved to gross rental was received in writing from the owners of the properties. 

 

A detailed list providing the name(s) of the owner(s) for each property has been provided under separate cover to Elected Members.

Comment

Under Section 6.28 of the Local Government Act 1995 the Minister for Local Government is to determine the method of valuation of land.  The Minister’s approval is required before the method of valuation of a property can be changed.

 

The Department of Local Government and Regional Development has confirmed that the process of subdivision does not automatically give rise to a change in the method of valuing land.  Instead, upon receiving advice from a local authority the Minister is required to make a determination and advise the Valuer General accordingly.

Statutory Compliance

Section 6.28 of the Local Government Act 1995 requires the Minister to determine the method of valuation to be used by a local government and publish a notice of the determination in the Government Gazette.-

“(1) The Minister is to –

(a)  determine the method of valuation of land to be used by a local government as the basis for a rate; and

(b)  publish a notice of the determination in the Government Gazette.

(2)  In determining the method of valuation of land to be used by a local government the Minister is to have regard to the general principle that the basis for a rate on any land is to be –

(a)  where the land is used predominantly for rural purposes, the unimproved value of   the land; and

(b)  where the land is used predominantly for non-rural purposes, the gross rental value of land.”

The Department Local Government and Regional Development has advised that the powers under Section 6.28 of the Local Government Act 1995 have been delegated to the Director General of the Department.  In addition, the Department has advised that the effective date of the change is the date of the Director General’s approval.

Strategic Implications

Outcome 4 – Governance -

“Leadership and community engagement to ensure the best use of our physical, financial and human resources”

Policy Implications

Financial Implications

The change in basis of rating to gross rental value as opposed to the unimproved value will result in the owners making a more equitable contribution to the City’s rate income.

Issue

To consider entering into a lease with Activ Foundation Inc over a portion of Crown Reserve 27366, Ashby.

Background

Crown Reserve 27366 is situated at 1204 Wanneroo Road vested to the City under a Management Order and is the location of the City’s Ashby Operations Centre.  The purpose, until recently of the Reserve was ‘Municipal Depot and Community Radio Site’ however, the radio site is no longer applicable due to Twin Cities FM having recently relocated to Joondalup.

 

There is an opportunity to lease vacant portions of the Ashby Operations Centre for community purpose type activities but the previous reserve purpose did not support that use.  Recent discussions with the Department for Planning and Infrastructure’s State Land Services has resulted in agreement to change the purpose of the Reserve to delete ‘Community Radio Site’ and include ‘Community Office’ as an appropriate use.  The new Management Order has been issued and provides the City with the power to lease for a term not exceeding 21 years subject to the approval of the Minister for Lands.

 

Informal discussions commenced in September 2008 with Activ Foundation Inc (Activ) approaching the City regarding the possibility of leasing portion of the Ashby Operations Centre.  Activ is one of Western Australia’s leading community organisations and is a charitable organisation that has benefited the community by providing services and support to people with disabilities and their families in the form of providing accommodation, recreation, respite care, employment and skills development training since 1951.  Activ is federally and state government funded and is a not for profit organisation but does derive a level of income from the provision of its services to the community.

 

Currently Activ provides employment for over 100 people with an intellectual disability across the state operating from various depots and once the location of a depot site in Wanneroo is confirmed it is planned to expand its operations by providing 52 new supported positions in the longer term.  The nature of these positions will be to carry out landscaping, gardening, lawn mowing and complete grounds maintenance programs for a range of customers including local and state governments, domestic and commercial properties.

 


Detail

In mid December 2008 Activ made a formal offer to the City to lease a portion of Reserve 27366 being an area of approximately 1,800m² comprising an open area of approximately 1,740m², which includes a covered portion suitable for vehicle parking, and a nearby shed of approximately 60m² (Attachment 1 refers).

 

Should the lease be approved, Activ intends to immediately create 12 new supported employment positions to individuals with a disability and operate two vehicles with tandem trailers from the site.  It is also proposed that a transportable office be situated on the site, subject to a development application being submitted and approved.

 

Activ requested a three-year lease with two options to renew for further terms of three years each however, due to the uncertainty about the medium to longer-term use of the Ashby Operations Centre it was proposed that only a short-term lease be considered to allow both parties the time to consider the future suitability of the arrangement.

 

Under the City’s Tenancy Policy, Activ would be categorised as ‘Government’ on the basis that it is grant funded for the purpose of carrying out the services it provides and therefore the lease terms are by negotiation.

 

An annual lease fee of $8,000 has been negotiated and the essential terms of the proposed lease, subject to Council and Minister for Lands approval, are as follows:-

Lease Term

2 years

Commencement Date

1 April 2009 proposed

Lease Rental

$8,000 per annum (with CPI increment for year 2)

Council Rates

Lessee exempt due to charitable status

Water Rates

Not applicable

Building Insurance

Included in Lease Rental

Outgoings

Lessee responsibility except for water usage and electricity which are deemed to be included in Lease Rental.

Building Maintenance

Lessee’s responsibility

Statutory Compliance

Lessee’s responsibility

 

Activ has advised its ‘in principle’ agreement to the essential terms.

Comment

Activ is a well-established statewide organisation recognised for its assistance to the disabled in communities across Western Australia and the provision of such a service in Wanneroo fits with the City’s organisational strategies.

 

The City has no immediate use in the short term for the portion of the Ashby Operations Centre that is the subject of the lease proposal and on that basis Administration recommends that the proposed lease to Activ be supported.

Statutory Compliance

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 of a charitable, benevolent, religious, cultural, educational, recreational, sporting or other like nature; and

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

This means that a local public notice of the disposition is not required.

Strategic Implications

The proposed lease is consistent with the following strategies of the City’s Strategic Plan 2006 – 2021:-

 

“2.3.1    Provide or facilitate access to services and facilities that support inclusive communities; and

4.1.1       Establish and actively manage a range of partnerships that add value to our services and support the changing and diverse needs of the community”

Policy Implications

The lease has been negotiated in accordance with the City’s Tenancy Policy.

Financial Implications

The lease to Activ would result in an annual income stream of $8,000 in the first year of the lease, increasing by CPI for the second year but there would be no rate income due to the charitable nature of the services provided.

Issue

To consider the City receiving less compensation than previously resolved by Council from the NewGen Neerabup Partnership for allowing a gas pipeline easement and increased road width on City owned land at Lot 600 (570) Wattle Avenue, Neerabup.

Background

NewGen Neerabup Partnership (NewGen) is constructing a $450M 330 MW gas-fired peaking power station on Lot 507 (140) Pederick Road, Neerabup that will provide electricity into the South West Interconnected System at time of peak daily electricity demand.  The power station is located on the north side of Lot 507 fronting Trandos Road.  The power station forms part of the Neerabup Energy Precinct, which also includes Lot 600.

 

Associated with the power station are a 30 km natural gas pipeline and a high voltage 330 kV transmission line.  The gas pipeline will provide fuel for the gas turbines and traverses from the power station site to a connection on the Dampier to Bunbury Natural Gas Pipeline near Muchea in the Shire of Chittering.  The 330 kV transmission line will connect the power station to the Western Power Neerabup Terminal Substation on Ziatis Road.

 

The City in its capacity as a planning regulator has granted conditional planning approval for the construction of the gas pipeline and transmission line.  The Western Australian Planning Commission has granted approval to commence development.

 

NewGen requested the City’s approval as landowner to install the underground pipeline on the eastern boundary of the City’s Lot 600 adjacent to the proposed Old Yanchep Road reserve (Attachment 1 refers).  In return the City requested to be compensated for the lost value of the land.

 

NewGen also requested the City’s approval as landowner to widen Trandos Road on the southern boundary of Lot 600 to accommodate the road widening required for the installation of the 330 kV transmission lines.  In return the City requested to be compensated for the land lost to the road widening.

 

On 7 November 2008 NewGen provided written agreement to pay compensation on the following basis:-

Gas Pipeline Easement

·                Easement within 10-hectare power station site in southeast corner of Lot 600 (then proposed to be sold to Griffin Generation Pty Ltd) - $160 per square metre multiplied by 30%; and

·                Balance of easement along eastern boundary of Lot 600 - $160 per square metre multiplied by 50%.

 

Subject to survey of the final location of the pipeline easement and the 10-hectare lot, an estimate of the value of this compensation was as follows:

 

Easement over power station site

325m x 5m x $160sqm x 30%

$  78,000

Easement over balance of Lot 600

285m x 5m x $160sqm x 50%

$114,000

Total (GST exclusive)

 

$192,000

 

Widening of Trandos Road

·                Land currently zoned Parks and Recreation - $160 per square metre; and

·                Land currently zoned Industrial - $250 per square metre.

 

Subject to confirmation from detailed drawings to be prepared by the City, an estimate of the value of this compensation was as follows:

 

Parks and Recreation land

525m x 7m x $160sqm

$   588,000

Industrial land

277m x 7m x $250sqm

$   484,750

Total (GST exclusive)

 

$1,072,750

 

Newgen advised City officers that NewGen may at some time request that Council agree to a lesser amounts of compensation and NewGen and Administration agreed to the insertion of the following statement in the letter of agreement.

 

“NewGen has advised the City that it would prefer to pay lesser compensation amounts.  If Council resolves to agree to lesser compensation amounts, this agreement will be amended accordingly.  Please note that the City Administration will not be recommending lesser amounts to Council”.

 

In accordance with Administration’s recommendation, Council at its meeting of 18 November, 2008 (CS09-11/08) resolved the following:-

 

“That Council:-

1.      APPROVES NewGen Neerabup Partnership constructing an underground gas pipeline within the eastern boundary of Lot 600 (570) Wattle Avenue, Neerabup and GRANTS a 5 metre wide easement over the pipeline subject to NewGen making payment to the City in the estimated sum of $192,000 plus GST;

2.      APPROVES an additional 7 metre road widening along the southern boundary of Lot 600 (570) Wattle Avenue, Neerabup to create a 42-metre wide road reserve subject to NewGen making payment to the City the estimated sum of $1,072 750 plus GST;

3.      AUTHORISES the Mayor and Chief Executive Officer to affix the Common Seal to the Neerabup Power Station Pipeline Land Owner’s Deed and to the Deed of Easement;

4.      NOTES that the land sale price paid by Griffin Generation Pty Ltd for portion of Lot 600 (570) Wattle Avenue, Neerabup will be reduced by the value of the compensation received by the City for the part of the gas pipeline easement within the Griffin site, the reduction being estimated at $78,000 excluding GST; and

5.      APPROVES the net compensation funds received from NewGen, estimated at $1,186,750, being transferred to a new reserve to be created – the “Neerabup Development Reserve” established –

“for the purpose of meeting the associated cost of developing the City’s Investment Land in Neerabup.” ”

 

On 20 November 2008 NewGen emailed correspondence to the Mayor’s Office requesting that the compensation amounts be reduced.

 

On 9 December representatives from NewGen met with the Chief Executive Officer and other officers from the City.  At that meeting NewGen advised that it would make a representation to the February 2009 Council meeting requesting reduced compensation amounts.  This representation was not made.

 

The pipeline has now been installed on the City’s land and the transmission line is under construction.  Administration wishes to seek payment from NewGen, however, in light of NewGen’s request to pay lesser amounts of compensation, is seeking further direction from Council.

Detail

NewGen’s comments in regard to the compensation and Administration’s comments are as follows:-

NewGen’s Comments

Administration’s Comments

The project does not need the road widening to run the full length of the southern boundary of Lot 600 because the transmission line does not run the full length.

The City preferred position is that the road widening occurred on the southern side of the road (NewGen’s Lot 507 and privately owned Lot 506), however this does not suit NewGen.  The City agreed to the widened road design as a compromise so that NewGen did not have to place its 330kV transmission lines on private property.  Now in order to reduce the road land area and thus the compensation payable, NewGen is requesting that the City agree to a redesigned deviated road that is not a preferred design.

NewGen’s request that the transmission line be placed in the road reserve and that none of the additional road widening occur on the southern side of Trandos Road has lead to the requirement for full length widening on the northern (Lot 600) side.

The City should not accept a lesser road design and angled frontage on its Lot 600 to suit NewGen’s commercial considerations, especially given that the City has been amenable in allowing NewGen's 330kV transmission lines in the middle of the road.

The Industrial portion of land in the road widening should be compensated at rate similar to NewGen’s transaction for a 10 hectare portion of Industrial zoned Lot 507 ($100 per square metre) and the City’s proposed sale of 10 hectares (now not proceeding) of Parks and Recreation land on Lot 600 to Griffin Generation ($110 per square metre).

The Industrial portion of Lot 600 is land that can be subdivided by the City and sold as smaller lots.  If the City is to give up land for road widening as a result of NewGen’s activities, then the City should be compensated for the potential loss to the City. 

Industrial lots in Landcorp’s nearby Stage 1A Meridian Park land tender are being marketed from $268.18 per square metre for a 4,177 square metre lot to $281.12 per square metre for a 2503 square metre lot.

It is considered that the agreed compensation amount of $250 per square metre is reasonable compensation for the loss of developable land to the City.

The land compensation rate for the Parks and Recreation zoned land is being based on Industrial zoning rather than Parks and Recreation zoning.

A Metropolitan Region Scheme amendment is currently being considered by the WAPC to rezone the Parks and Recreation land to Public Purposes and this has been the basis of the City’s request for compensation.  Council at its ordinary meeting on 29 July 2008 (CS13-07/08) resolved to sell a 10-hectare portion in the south-eastern corner of Lot 600 to Griffin Generation Pty Ltd for a sum of $11,000,000 plus GST ($110 per square metre plus GST) based on a Public Purpose (SU) reserve zoning.

Due to the much smaller parcel of land the subject of the gas pipeline easement, an increased rate of $160 per square metres should be payable.  This increased rate particularly applies to the northern portion of the easement, which may be sold by the City at a higher value in the future as land values increase.

The % value of loss in relation to the pipeline easement is in excess of the devaluation impact of the underground pipeline.

The amount of compensation paid for easements depends on the owner’s perceived loss of amenity of the land.  Griffin had agreed to incorporate the easement into its land (for a corresponding financial adjustment) so there was less risk to the City, thus a 70% discount was applied to the easement land within the Griffin site.  This was to be deducted from the sale price of the land to Griffin; however, the sale to Griffin is no longer proceeding.

 

 

In regard to the northern portion of the easement, there is a risk that a future purchaser may refuse to have a high-pressure gas pipeline easement within their property or may wish to pay less for this portion of the land, so a lower 50% discount has been applied.

Generally easement compensation ratios of land value can range from as low as 5% to as high as 30%, and given that a large diameter high pressure gas pipeline represents a higher safety risk to the site owner than say, a sewerage easement, Administration believes that this should fall into the higher end of the range, and as described previously, the northern portion of the easement had a higher compensation ratio value (50%) applied to represent the risk to the City of a potential purchaser, which may be a commercial competitor to NewGen, baulking at purchasing land incorporating the gas pipeline easement.

This now also applies to the southern portion as the Griffin purchase is not proceeding, however Administration is not seeking to increase the compensation ratio for this portion given the previous agreement with NewGen.

The compensation value should be determined by valuation and/or by a legislative compensation method.

The compensation amounts are a purely commercial negotiation between the City as a private landowner and NewGen as a private commercial entity and there is no reason for the City to agree to a methodology that NewGen feels may suit its purposes.

Comment

The City as a private landowner is entitled to enter into commercial negotiations over the taking or use of its land for the benefit of private enterprise.  The City in this regard needs to act independently to its role as a regulator to ensure that a commercial outcome is achieved and that the City is adequately compensated for any potential losses resulting from the use and taking of the City’s land.

 

Administration is of the opinion that the compensation being proposed is a good result for the City and will provide much needed unbudgeted income for the City during the 2008/09 financial year.

Statutory Compliance

Section 3.58 of the Local Government Act deals with dispositions of land.

 

The registering of an easement over portion of Lot 600 does not represent a disposition of the land.  This will occur when the land is sold to an energy provider or other purchaser.

 

In regard to the Road D4/D5 land, this is to be disposed of to the Crown for the purpose of a road reserve.  Section 30(1)(c) of the Local Government (Functions and General) Regulations 1996 advises that Section 3.58 does not apply to dispositions to the Crown.

Strategic Implications

This proposal is consistent with the City’s 2006-2021 Strategic Plan and meets the following Outcome Objectives –

 

“3.1       Increase availability of serviced commercial and industrial land”

“3.2       Improve regional infrastructure”

“4.5       Improve long-term financial viability”

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

The compensation areas have now been accurately drawn (Attachment 1 refers), although the pipeline easement is still subject to survey on site.  The compensation amounts would now be:-

 

Gas Pipeline Easement

Easement over previously proposed power station site

1548sqm x $160sqm x 30%

$  74,304

Easement over balance of Lot 600

1428sqm x $160sqm x 50%

This represents $1,216,664 of unbudgeted income during the 2008/09 financial year.

 

The City is promoting the development of the Neerabup Industrial Area to provide much needed employment for the local population.  Development of the City owned land in Neerabup, particularly Lot 4 Flynn Drive, has been delayed due to environmental constraints, which will most likely only be resolved through land offsets and environmental rehabilitation.  This will require significant expenditure by the City and potentially reduce returns to the City due to a reduced area of developable land.  It is proposed that the compensation received from the NewGen transactions be transferred to a newly created reserve to be named the Neerabup Development Reserve. 

 

Therefore this income received from Neerabup would be invested back into Neerabup facilitating further industrial development.  Ultimately, the balance of this reserve could also be applied to a Debt Reduction Program through a Strategic Payment Plan for the current $60m Loan Borrowing Plan.

Issue

To consider proposed changes to the existing Home and Community Care (HACC) Service Agreement 2006/2010 with the State Government, Department of Health as a result of:

 

·         increase in annual funding level

·         shift in service demand and

·         allocation of the 2008/2009 growth funding (recurrent and non-recurrent).

Background

The City of Wanneroo has worked in collaboration with State and Federal funding bodies to provide Home and Community Care since 1985 – it currently provides support to over 700 eligible elderly and disabled people.  The aim of HACC is to assist individuals and their carers by providing a range of support services, which promote community independence, enhances quality of life in the home, and helps to prevent premature entry into hostel or nursing home accommodation.

 

On 30 June 2008, the City of Wanneroo submitted an annual application for recurrent ($501,975) and non-recurrent ($160,256) Growth Funding to the Department of Health under the HACC program framework.  The aim of this application was to further support the City’s Adult Day Centre Programs, reduce the operating deficit to the City in the provision of services, and to respond to increased user demands for our elderly and disabled residents. 

 

On 5 January 2009, the City was advised by the Department of Health that it has been successful in various components of its application, and has been offered an increase of $211,245 (GST exclusive) in recurrent growth funding, with a supporting amount of $96,256 (GST exclusive) for non-recurrent funding.  As part of the offer, a total of 50% or $105,623 will be paid to the City this financial year to cover the period January 2009 to June 2009 for which the City is expected to meet 50% of the total activity in the approved Growth Funding Application for 2008/2009.

 

In January 2009, the City’s Chief Executive Officer signed off the Department of Health’s offer of recurrent and non-recurrent growth funding for the City’s HACC program. 


The conditions attached to this funding (variations to service specifications) are not onerous and are incorporated into the current HACC Service Agreement 2006-2010.

 

On 3 February 2009, the Department of Health requested the City to sign off a new Deed of Variation for 2008-2009 which included a new annual funding level, new provisions relating to the City’s Financial Obligations and Reports under Clause 3 of Schedule 7 and a new Service Specification Table reflecting changes to funding levels and target outcomes for all service types.

 

As the full recurrent growth funding of $211,245 will not take effect until 1 July 2009, the 50% offer of  $105,623 for period January to June 2009 was treated as an appendix to the existing service agreement. Consequently, a new Deed of Variation with a new annual funding level which incorporates the full recurrent growth funding will be considered again in 2009-2010.

Consultation

Comment

The increase in the annual funding level in the Deed of Variation 2008-2009 is due to the 2.2% cost supplementation valued at $38,587.  The current funding level and target outcome (e.g. volume and client numbers) for every service type in the Service Specification Table are reflective of the current needs of the community.

 

In light of the current economic climate, the additional recurrent funding from the Department of Health is deemed as being a substantial offer that will expand the scope and levels of services available to the residents of the City.  In addition, the non-recurrent funding on offer will also provide effective implements that will greatly enhance the quality and efficiency in the delivery of aged and disability suite of services.

Statutory Compliance

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

Strategic Implications

The provision of these services is consistent with the City of Wanneroo’s Strategic Plan (2006-2021) outcomes and objectives.

 

            “Social – Healthy, safe, vibrant and connected communities

 2.1 Increase choice and quality of neighbourhood and lifestyle options”

Financial Implications

If the proposed Deed of Variation is signed, the new Annual Funding Level for 2008/2009 will be $1,792,525, an increase of $38,587 to the operating income of the City’s HACC program.

 

As a result of the latest growth funding allocations, the adopted budget for the City’s HACC program for 2008-2009 was amended to incorporate the operating items included in the approved funding.

 

In the case of non-recurrent growth funding allocation, there is a requirement for Council to approve the unbudgeted capital income and expenditure in the current budget framework amounting to $93,675 (vehicles $69,350 plus furniture and equipment $24,325) – fully funded by the grant.

Issue

To consider the final designs, cost position and approach to the development of the Wanneroo Showgrounds Gatehouse and Entry Statement.

Background

In 2004, Administration completed the Wanneroo Showgrounds Infrastructure Upgrade Plan as an internal document of reference, with the aim of improving existing facilities for active and passive recreation whilst retaining its rural and agricultural character to reinforce the primary and founding purpose of the Wanneroo Showgrounds.

 

Among a number of issues relating to service infrastructure, internal traffic management and parking, the Infrastructure Upgrade Plan identified the need for a more prominent and legible entrance to the Showgrounds and a key recommendation of the Plan was to develop an iconic entry statement in combination with the reconstruction of the former gatehouse.

 

Accordingly, funds were allocated in 2007/2008 to undertake the design development and tender specification for a new Wanneroo Showgrounds Gatehouse and Entry Statement with a view to completing the project prior to the 2009 Centenary Wanneroo Show.  Site Architecture Studio was appointed as the project architect in January 2008 to prepare concept plans and detailed documentation.

 

A Draft Concept Plan was developed in consultation with a Project Reference Group comprising the Mayor, Central Ward Councillors, representatives from the Wanneroo Agricultural Society and the Wanneroo Historical Society, key Showgrounds user groups and Administration.  Key features of the concept included:

 

·                Redesigned pedestrian entry with gatehouse and forecourt off Ariti Avenue;

·                Provision for a significant entry statement that can be viewed from Wanneroo Road;

·                Allowances to expand gatehouse buildings to include office space and storage for the Wanneroo Agricultural Society;

·                Public Art incorporated in the design of the forecourt, buildings and perimeter fence including images representing the history of the Showgrounds, its diversity of uses and the Agricultural Society;

·                Entry statement fencing including a combination of steel gate posts, steel powder coated gates and numerous decorative panels.

 

The total project cost, based on the Draft Concept Plan was estimated at $430,000.

The Draft Concept Plan and associated cost estimates were endorsed by the Project Reference Group and subsequently presented to Council at its meeting on 8 April 2008 where Council resolved to:

 

“1.       ENDORSES the Wanneroo Showgrounds Gatehouse and Entry Statement Concept Plan and Indicative Costs.

2.         APPROVES the Project Reference Group and Project Architect to progress the Wanneroo Showgrounds Gatehouse and Entry Statement detailed design documentation in accordance with the Concept Plan.

3.         NOTES that the Wanneroo Showgrounds Gatehouse and Entry Statement Final Report and Project Cost will be presented to Council for consideration prior to Advertising for Tender.

4.         ENDORSES that the Wanneroo Showgrounds Gatehouse and Entry Statement Project cost will need to be listed for consideration within the City’s 2008/09 Capital Works Program.”

In accordance with Item 4 of the resolution, $430,000 was listed for consideration in the 2008/09 budget, with the following budget breakdown adopted.

 

Funding Source

Amount

Municipal

$150,000

Grants – State Govt

$250,000

Contributions - Other

$30,000

TOTAL

$430,000

 

Accordingly, Administration sought external funding for the project, with two primary grant sources being identified:

 

Lotterywest – “Valuing Our State’s Heritage” or “Community Facilities” Grants

·         Usually fund only small amounts for capital works up to $50,000;

·         Advice from Lotterywest was that the project did not fit the criteria for heritage conservation grants and was unlikely to receive funding under the Community Facility Grants.  Priority is generally given to projects that fill an identified gap or where there is a lack of suitable alternative facilities available.

 

OMCF – “Capital Works: Restorations” or “Community Purpose” Grants

·         The Department of Local Government and Regional Development, who administer the OMCF grants, would not give formal advice regarding the eligibility or likelihood of funding for a project unless an application was submitted, other than to say that the Gatehouse Project was a low priority under the OMCF program.

·         Accordingly, the City lodged an application for funding to a total of $100,000.

·         The City recently received advice that the application was unsuccessful

 

As a consequence of the City’s funding applications being unsuccessful and the contribution of $30,000 not being received from the Wanneroo Agricultural Society, the project was left with a significant funding shortfall.

Detail

As a result of the altered funding model for the project, Administration has had to review the approach to the project.

In accordance with Items 2 and 3 of Council’s resolution from the 8 April 2008 meeting, Site Architecture Studio were instructed to finalise detailed designs and cost estimates for the entry statement and gatehouse based on the endorsed concept plan so as to provide flexibility in determining the scope of works to be achieved with available budget.  The detailed designs can be seen at Attachment 1 for final endorsement of Council.

 

A prerequisite to finalising the designs and proceeding with any work on the gatehouse and entry statement was the need to upgrade the entry road between Ariti Avenue and the Showgrounds entry gate.  The upgrade of the entry road asphalt surface, which essentially forms Stage 1 of the project, was completed prior to the 2008 Wanneroo Show and has provided the base levels on which the detailed documentation of the entry statement and gatehouse were developed.

 

Funding

 

A cost estimate to complete the project in its entirety was subsequently received from Site Architecture and estimated at $352,050.  This can be broken down into its individual elements as follows:

 

·         Western Section

Ticket Booth, Gatehouse & Feature Panels                                  $66,760

Artwork                                                                                        $20,000

TOTAL                                                                                        $352,050

 

Before an approach to completing the project could be determined it was necessary to establish the funds available.  As part of the mid year budget review, it has been proposed to access additional funds from the Gnangara Equestrian Trail project (PR-1004) as this project has been deferred until 2009/10.  These additional funds will increase the potential for key components of the gatehouse and entry statement project to be completed within current budget allocations.

 

Subject to Council endorsing this transfer of funds, an outline of the current budget position is as follows:

Proposed Development Approach

 

It is clear that the available budget is not sufficient to complete the project in its entirety and given the current economic climate, there is no certainty of securing funding in future financial years.  It is therefore considered necessary to first and foremost develop those elements that are critical to the creation of a functional gatehouse and entry statement, with secondary elements being included subject to available funds.  With this strategy in mind, the following approach to the development of the Gatehouse and Entry Statement is proposed:

 

·         Stage 1 – Priority works for completion with existing budget allocation.

 

The priority items for development have been identified as:

 

1.      Western Section - Ticket Booth & Gate House (excluding artwork)             $66,760

 

The ticket booth and gatehouse is considered essential from a functional perspective in ensuring that access to the showgrounds can be controlled year-round and monitored during show time.  Artwork is not included in Stage 1 as it is not critical to the structure’s function, however the design of the gatehouse and accompanying feature walls provide an appropriate visual statement and it is important to note that they have been designed such that artwork can be installed at a later date.

 

 

2.      Western Section - Fencing & Gates                                                                $48,900

 

The inclusion of fencing and the ornamental gate is essential in that it controls access to the showgrounds.  The ornamental wrought-iron gate is also considered to make a striking visual statement and function as an art component of the overall development.

 

3.      Western Section - Paving & Courtyard works                                               $21,550

(excluding external lighting)

 

External lighting is not essential to the function of the gatehouse and has therefore been excluded as a cost saving measure. 


Sufficient spread of light is provided during evening hours by adjacent street lighting.  Temporary lighting can be utilised during event times until permanent lighting is installed at a future date.

 

4.      Contingencies 10%                                                                                         $13,721

 

TOTAL                                                                                                                $150,931

 

 

·         Future Stages – For future completion or as budget allows.

 

5.      Artworks for Ticket Booth & Gatehouse precinct                                         $40,000

 

6.      Eastern Section – Feature Walls and Courtyard Paving                                 $10,000

 

7.      Entry Road Fencing & Landscaping                                                              $78,200

 

TOTAL                                                                                                                $118,200

 

The above strategy will result in a gatehouse and entry statement that is both functional and attractive, albeit at a reduced scope of works from what was originally proposed by the endorsed concept plan.

 

As the figures quoted in the report are cost estimates only, it is proposed to seek quotations for each of the priority sections as soon as possible so as to complete works within the current financial year.

 

To minimise further delays to the project, the approval of Council is sought to seek quotations for the construction of the gatehouse and entry statement and subject to formal quotations being received within available budget allocation, proceed with construction works.

Consultation

The detailed concept designs and cost estimates developed by Site Architecture Studios were presented to the Project Reference Group on Monday, 22 September 2008 for endorsement.  The Reference Group was supportive of the detailed concept and felt that it was consistent with the original concept endorsed by Council.  The Group was keen to see the works completed in time for the 2009 Wanneroo Show.

 

Although the Project Reference Group has not formally endorsed the approach presented in the report, they have been made aware at previous meetings of the impact of the reduced budget and the need to take an alternate approach to the completion of the project.  It is proposed to meet with the group again once a strategy for moving forward has been endorsed by Council.

Comment

The Gatehouse and Entry Statement project is a key component of the Wanneroo Showgrounds Infrastructure Upgrades and is also a vital element of the 2009 Centenary Wanneroo Show celebrations. 


Given that the Wanneroo Agricultural Society and Wanneroo Historical Society had specific input into the designs and that the Project Reference Group has endorsed the detailed plans, it is clear that the detailed plans meet the needs of the key project stakeholders.

 

Although the reduced scope of the project is not ideal, Administration believes that the proposed approach still delivers key project deliverables and will result in the best outcome for the project given financial constraints.  It is therefore recommended that Council note the detailed designs and authorise Administration to proceed with construction subject to quotations being within available budget.

 

With regards to Stage 11 it is believed appropriate that the cost of this stage be met fully by the Wanneroo Agricultural Society.

BALANCE

This demonstrates that the proposed approach may be accommodated within available budget subject to available budget being supplemented by funds from PR-1004 (Gnangara Equestrian trail) as identified in the mid-year budget review.

 

 

The above table does not include contractor fees, however as the project will be sought through quotations these are not expected to be significant.

 

It is therefore proposed that the funds available in PR-1297 with the additional funds transferred from PR-1004 (a total of $154,956) be used to complete the functional components of the Wanneroo Showgrounds Gate House and Entry Statement.

Recommendation

That Council ENDORSES the revised policy as follows:

Certificate of Recognition – Elected Members

Policy Owner:             Governance

Distribution:                All Staff and Elected Members

Implementation:          June 2004 – Adopted by Council on 20 July 2004, Item No:
CE01-07/04

Reviewed:                    October 2006

Scheduled Review:      January 2011

Objective

To specify the circumstances in which to acknowledge the services of current or retiring elected members so that they are appropriately recognised for their contributions.

Statement

There is relatively little recognition and support for people who are prepared to be members of council and, as a result, make a significant contribution to their communities.

The Department of Local Government and Regional Development has therefore reduced the qualifying period for the receipt of a Certificate of Recognition to 8 years. 

In order to enable the City to appropriately recognise elected members, the following is presented:

·                A certificate of recognition will be awarded to a current or former elected member, on request to the Department of Local Government and Regional Development, after eight or more years of service and which has been confirmed by the local government;

·                The service need not be continuous and may be with one or more local governments;

·                If an elected member, having been issued with a Certificate, has further service that qualifies, i.e. a further eight years or more, an additional Certificate will be issued; and

·                Details on a Certificate will include the period served by the elected member as mayor/president, deputy mayor/ president or councillor.

Requests for certificates will be made to the Department by the City on behalf of the elected member.   Certificates issued to current elected members who have served for more than eight years will recognise all their years of service however, once a Certificate has been issued, another will not be provided for any period less than a further eight years.

It is therefore suggested that an elected member who has qualified, having been on council for eight years, but who intends to continue for another term, defer their application for a certificate until such time as their term is completed or they retire from council.  This will allow the service details to be on one certificate.

The Department of Local Government and Regional Development will recognise the number of years served by issuing certificates that are colour coded, i.e.

White:             8 to 16 years of service

Silver:             17 to 24 years of service

Gold:              25 years or more.

In addition to the Certificate by the Department of Local Government and Regional Development, the elected member will be presented, on retirement:

·                With a plaque of the Council crest and an engraved plate identifying the name of the elected member and the years of service to Council;

·                A gift to the value of $80 per year for Councillors and $100 per year for Mayors for each year of service capped at a maximum of $500;

Presentations will occur at either of the following Council functions:

·                Prior to a normal, scheduled Council meeting; or

·                By the Mayor or his nominee; or

·                As approved by the Mayor and Chief Executive Officer.

The retiree is to have the option of choice.

For the position of Mayor, in addition to the Department of Local Government and Regional Development Certificate of Recognition, a suitable gift and reception will be arranged by the Chief Executive Officer in conjunction with the Deputy Mayor.

Procedure:

1.             A letter of recognition be sent by the Chief Executive Officer to the qualifying elected member acknowledging their term of service and clarifying whether the elected member wishes to claim their certificate at this time or whether they prefer to postpone receipt until retirement.  The letter to detail the Department’s advice regarding postponement until retirement.

2.             A request be made to the Department detailing the elected members full name and period of service as mayor/president, deputy mayor/president or councillor.

3.             The Department will process the application and obtain the Minister’s signature.  The Certificate will be posted back to Council for presentation to the elected member as described above.

4.       The Chief Executive Officer will arrange the City of Wanneroo Plaque and gift.

Issue

To consider the revised Training, Travel and Accommodation – Elected Members policy.

Background

The Training, Travel and Accommodation – Elected Members policy was first implemented in July 2000 and is now due for review.  Media enquiries regarding the policy, in particular the City’s stance on the accumulation and use of Frequent Flyer points by elected members, have drawn attention to this issue.

Detail

The revised policy is presented with minimal changes.

Consultation

The Department of Local Government and Regional Development and the West Australian Local Government Association were both consulted regarding a policy position.  The City has also received advice from Woodhouse Legal on this issue.

Comment

The Training Travel and Accommodation – Elected Members Policy has been reviewed in order to bring it into line with current practice.  The proposed changes are demonstrated in (Attachment 1).

 

In relation to Frequent Flyer points, the revised clause 2.2 states:

 

Elected members should not accumulate benefits associated with customer loyalty programs, such as Frequent Flyer points, while travelling on council business.  The City will not provide Elected Members’ Frequent Flyer details to an airline when booking and paying for a flight.

 

This approach formalises the current practice and avoids any administrative burden on the City. 

 

Other noteworthy changes are:

 

·                The current policy sets the elected member travel and accommodation allowance at
$2 000 per annum, with $5 000 for the Mayor. 


The revised policy allows Council to set the budget on a yearly basis subject to the budget not exceeding $4 000 per elected member and $8 000 for the Mayor.

 

·                The current policy states that the City will pay for an accompanying person’s program and conference dinner for spouses.  The revised policy states that the City will not pay for partners to accompany elected members on Council business, other than for attendance at an official conference dinner.

Statutory Compliance

The draft policy is in compliance with s 5.98 of the Local Government Act 1995, which governs fees and allowances for elected members.

Strategic Implications

The draft policy is consistent with Objective 4.6 of the Strategic Plan 2006-2021 which is “Improve support for staff, Council and volunteers.”

Policy Implications

There are major changes proposed for the policy.

Financial Implications

The available budget for training, travel and accommodation for elected members has been increased.

________________________________________________________________________


OBJECTIVE

To establish guidelines in respect to elected members’ participation in training, travel arrangements and accommodation at conferences and study tours while on official Council business.

STATEMENT

The Council recognises that elected members have a responsibility to undertake the training necessary to enable them to fulfil their duties of public office.  The Council is therefore committed to the ongoing development of its elected members in the interests of effective representation.  An annual allocation will be provided in each year’s budget to allow for training and development for elected members.

GUIDELINES

1.       General

1.1     Travel, Attendance and Accommodation Arrangements

The CEO is delegated the authority to approve all travel arrangements (including conference registration, air fares, accommodation, and reimbursement of other expenses) necessary for attendance by elected members at local or interstate conferences or training courses.  Attendance at an international conference or training course is subject to the approval of the Council.  All arrangements are subject to sufficient budgeted funds being available.

1.2       Interstate Conferences

An elected member may attend a maximum of one interstate conference per year unless otherwise authorised by Council.

1.3     Partners and Spouses

The City will not pay for partners and spouses to accompany elected members on Council business, except payment for attendance at the official conference dinner is permitted.  Partners and spouses may accompany elected members at other times at their own expense.

1.4     Bookings and Payment

All conference bookings will be arranged through the Office of the Mayor and all associated costs will be paid directly by the City wherever possible.

1.5     Travel, Attendance and Accommodation Budget

Council is responsible for annually reviewing and adopting the travel, attendance and accommodation budget.  However the budget adopted should not exceed more than $4 000 per elected member, or $8 000 for the Mayor.


1.6     Allocation May be Carried Over

A maximum amount of $4 000 per annum per Elected Member may be carried over to the next financial year to a maximum of $8 000 in any one year.

1.7     Nomination Form

Elected members will submit a nomination form to the CEO for each training opportunity or conference that they wish to attend.  The nomination should address the following:

·                equity of opportunity;

·                remaining term of office; and

·                relevance of the event or function to the City’s priorities; strategic direction and the Elected Member’s committee representation.

In the event that three or more nominations are submitted by elected members for the same training opportunity or conference, or the requested attendance exceeds the elected member’s allowance, then the attendance of elected members at the event will be referred to Council for approval.

1.8     Activity Materials

All conference papers, or other relevant materials, are the property of the City and will be placed in the Councillors’ Reading Room.

1.9     Report

The attendee will produce a report on the event, and provide a summary presentation of the report at a Council Forum meeting.

1.10   Nominations at End of Term

Any nomination for attendance at a training opportunity or conference that falls within the last six months of an elected member’s term of office will be referred to Council for approval.

1.11   General Funding Allocation

The City will retain a general allocation in the budget of $10 000 for elected member attendance at training events and conferences where Council itself requests attendance.

1.12   Group Training Allocation

The City will retain an additional allocation in the budget of $10 000 for group training for elected members.

1.13   Payment of Study Fees Subsidy

1.13.1  The City may, at the discretion of the Chief Executive Officer, provide a contribution towards the fees of an approved course of study. 


Any contribution is limited to 50% of the total unit course fee plus the cost of one textbook.  The maximum contribution available is $2000 per calendar year.

1.13.2  An approved course of study is a course which is deemed to benefit the elected member in their position or is of value to the organisation.  Approved courses of study include:

·                An under graduate or post graduate degree at an Australian university;

·                A course of study at a TAFE College or,

·                A course of study at a private Registered Training Organisation approved by the Western Australian Department of Education and Training.

The elected member is not entitled to any subsidy where a course of study is subsidised through other means.

1.13.3  Contributions will only be made at the conclusion of each successfully completed unit upon presentation to the Chief Executive Officer of official transcripts demonstrating satisfactory academic progress.

1.13.4  The above clauses do not apply to the newly developed Local Government Graduation Program undertaken through Edith Cowan University.  Specifically for this program, the City will pay for one unit of study per semester per Elected Member, and will not seek reimbursement unless a strong level commitment has not been demonstrated.

1.14   Dispute Regarding Allowances

All disputes regarding elected member allowances will be referred to the Director Governance and Strategy in the first instance.  In the event that the elected member and the Director Governance and Strategy cannot reach an agreement, the matter will be submitted to Council for a ruling.

2.       Travel Arrangements

2.1     Approval for Travel

Approval for travel will, where possible, be sought no later than two months prior to the proposed departure date.

2.2     Customer Loyalty Programs

Elected members should not accumulate benefits associated with customer loyalty programs, such as Frequent Flyer points, while travelling on council business.  The City will not provide Elected Members’ Frequent Flyer details to an airline when booking and paying for a flight.

2.3     Standard of Travel

All travel will be economy class, or equivalent, unless otherwise authorised by Council.


3.       Accommodation and Expenses

3.1     Accommodation

Accommodation will normally be booked at the conference venue where available.

3.2     Cash Advances

An advance of $80 per day for interstate travel, and $130 per day for overseas travel will be made available for reasonable food and beverage expenses associated with meals, relevant to the additional daily expenses incurred by the elected member.  The administrative arrangements for this will be the most appropriate to the circumstances in the view of the Director Governance and Strategy.

3.3     Acquittal of Advances

Documentary evidence in the form of receipts will be produced for the acquittal of all advances.  All advances will be acquitted within one week of returning to Perth.  Any amounts not properly acquitted will be promptly refunded to the City.  Authorised expenditure over and above the daily advance will be refunded to the elected member.

3.4     Meal Claims

Meal claims will be accepted where it is reasonable for the elected member to have incurred the expense.  Meal claims will not be accepted where meals are provided at the event or activity or where the expense is incurred outside of reasonable travelling times, for example more than a day in advance of, or after the end of, the event or activity.

3.5     Transport

If accommodation is at the venue of the event or activity then taxis should generally be used for transport.  Where necessary a hire car can be organised for the conduct of Council business at the discretion of the CEO.

3.6     Use of Private Vehicle

Where an elected member elects to travel interstate by private motor vehicle, they will be reimbursed for actual accommodation costs and vehicle costs in accordance with the Local Government mileage allowance up to an equivalent amount that would have been expended had the travel occurred by air.  Receipts must be provided for all expenses in order to be reimbursed.

Issue

To consider the adoption of the City of Wanneroo’s Compliance Audit Return for the period
1 January 2008 to 31 December 2008.

Background

The City of Wanneroo is required to undertake a complete audit of its procedures and processes in regard to meeting the requirements of legislation through the completion of an Annual Compliance Audit Return.  The Return is a comprehensive checklist of the City’s compliance with the requirements of the Local Government Act 1995 and all its regulations.

Detail

Detailed in the Officer’s recommendation (Attachment 1) is the completed Local Government Compliance Audit Return for 2008 for the City of Wanneroo. 

 

The City’s Internal Auditors, 2020 Global Pty Ltd, have undertaken a sample audit of the Return to further support the City’s statutory compliance practices. At the Special Audit Committee Meeting held on Tuesday 17 February 2009 their report was presented and noted.

Comment

The Department of Local Government & Regional Development’s Guidelines No.  9 recommend that the Annual Compliance Audit Return be presented to an Audit Committee prior to final adoption by Council, as the detailed nature of the Return would make it difficult for Council to assess any implications arising from the Return at its Ordinary meeting.

 

The audit conducted by 2020 Global Pty Ltd has been carried out in a thorough and diligent manner encompassing a broad section of the Return.  It should be recognised that through this comprehensive statistical sampling exercise there was only two areas that require minor follow up within the City's practices, and these are currently being addressed. 

 

In order to meet the required lodgement date of 31 March 2009, the Report is to be presented to the Ordinary Council meeting on 10 March 2009.

Statutory Compliance

The Local Government (Audit) Amendment Regulations 1999, Regulation 14(3) states:

 

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

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

(b)        adopted by the council; and

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

 

Regulation 15 further requires that the compliance audit return, together with a copy of the relevant section of the minutes, are to be provided to the Executive Director by 31 March 2009, following the period to which the return relates.

Strategic Implications

A strategy under the Strategic Plan – Governance “Objective 4.7 Maintain a high standard of governance and accountability”.

 

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

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

The Compliance Audit forms part of the Council’s contract for internal audit services with 2020 Global Pty Ltd.

Item  9                Motions on Notice

MN01-03/09  Councillor Cvitan – North-South By-Pass Road: Alexander Drive To Yanchep Beach Road

File Name: ACouncillor Steffens.doc This line will not be printed dont delete

File Ref:                                              To be advised

Responsible Officer:                           Nil

Disclosure of Interest:                         Nil

Issue

To consider the creation of a North-South By-Pass road connecting Alexander Drive, Gnangara with Old Yanchep Road, Yanchep.

Background

The two District Structure Plans endorsed by Council for the north west coastal corridor will provide for an ultimate population of over 200,000 residents. Local Structure Plans already approved or being assessed for this corridor will provide for an immediate population of over 71,000 residents. Additional residential development being planned for East Landsdale and East Wanneroo will also significantly increase the City’s population over the next decade.

 

This population growth will place enormous pressure on existing road infrastructure, which is already under strain, to provide an efficient intra and inter-regional transport network for the City. It will therefore be essential to carry out investigations into the creation of a north-south by-pass road to alleviate the pressure of population growth on existing regional roads, particularly Marmion Avenue, Mitchell Freeway, Connelly Drive and Wanneroo Road.

Comment

The existing regional road network in the City will struggle to cope with the significant population growth forecast for the City in following decades. An additional north-south road will be critical to providing safe and efficient access to the City’s future growth areas and to provide an efficient regional transport network.

Statutory Compliance

Nil

Strategic Implications

Investigation of a regional north-south by-pass road would be consistent with the following objectives from the City of Wanneroo’s Strategic Plan (2006-2021):

 

Social

2.1       Increase choice and quality of neighbourhood and lifestyle options

            2.4       Improve community safety

            2.5       Improve transport options and connections

Policy Implications

Nil

Voting Requirements

Simple Majority

Recommendation

That Council REQUIRES Administration to prepare a report for Council’s consideration that investigates the creation of a north-south by-pass road connecting Alexander Drive, Gnangara with Old Yanchep Road, Yanchep to service the future growth areas of the City.

Administration Comment

The Department for Planning and Infrastructure (DPI) has recently commissioned a study into the adequacy of the existing regional transport network to cope with the demands of predicted population growth in the City of Wanneroo. The preliminary findings of this report are expected to support the view that the existing regional transport network will be unable to accommodate the future population growth and that additional regional road infrastructure will be required to support growth in East Wanneroo and the north west coastal corridor. Other work being undertaken by the State Government is also relevant to this investigation, including the DPI’s draft sub-regional structure planning framework for East Wanneroo.

 

Administration supports the investigation into the creation of a north-south road and will prepare a report on the matter for Council’s consideration once the outcome of other more substantial investigations into the adequacy of the regional transport network and planning for East Wanneroo have been progressed.

MN02-03/09  Cr Rudi Steffens - Anchorage Park - Lot 12647 (18) Fowey Loop, Mindarie Proposed District Planning Scheme No. 2 Amendment

Issue

To consider a proposal to amend the City of Wanneroo District Planning Scheme No. 2 (DPS2) to change the classification of Lot 12647 (18) Fowey Loop, Mindarie from a Parks and Recreation reserve to either a Residential or Commercial zone.

Background

Lot 12647 (18) Fowey Loop, Mindarie is known as Anchorage Park.  It is located at the north-west corner of the intersection of Anchorage Drive and Marmion Avenue and covers an area of approximately 1.54 hectares.  The area is characterised by residential development to the south of Anchorage Drive and commercial uses and vacant land (owned by the City) to the west.  There are significant commercial uses including the Ocean Keys shopping centre to the east, across Marmion Avenue and the area to the north is residential.

Detail

Anchorage Park was developed as an area of public open space (POS) as part of the subdivision and development of the surrounding area.  The park forms part of the required POS for the locality and also partially provides a stormwater drainage function for the surrounding catchment.

Consultation

Should this matter proceed, it will be necessary to advertise the proposal for public comment in accordance with the requirements of the Planning and Development Act 2005 and as set out in the Town Planning Regulations.

Comment

The proposed rezoning of the site will enable its redevelopment for housing and/or commercial uses.  Anchorage Park is an underutilised area of POS, which may be suitable for redevelopment.  Additional housing in the area would complement existing residential areas and would be well serviced by nearby commercial uses.  The site offers good exposure to passing traffic and any additional commercial uses would complement existing commercial activities in the area and service the growing population in the corridor.

 


Prior to proceeding with any amendments to DPS2, it will be necessary to investigate the implications of the proposed rezoning, including the legality and appropriateness of converting land that was ceded for POS, the reduction of POS in the locality, traffic impacts and access, drainage requirements for the area, suitability of the topography, demand for any additional commercial uses and strategic implications in terms of the City’s existing housing and commercial strategies.

 

An investigation into this proposal would provide an indication of the merits of initiating a scheme amendment and it is recommended that the Administration be requested to undertake the necessary investigations.

Statutory Compliance

Consideration of this proposal is consistent with the Council’s ability to review and amend the District Planning Scheme.

Strategic Implications

Consideration of this request is consistent with Social Outcome objective 2.1 of the City’s Strategic Plan to increase choice and quality of neighbourhood and lifestyle options and Economic Objective 3.1 to increase availability of serviced commercial and industrial land.

Policy Implications

Consideration of the proposal will need to have regard to the City’s Local Housing Strategy and Centres Strategy.

Financial Implications

The rezoning of this land could enable the City to develop and/or sell it for commercial gain.

Voting Requirements

Simple Majority

EndStrip - This line will not be printed Please do NOT delete

Recommendation

That Council REQUIRES the Administration to prepare a report for Council’s consideration that investigates amending District Planning Scheme No. 2 to rezone Lot 12647 (18) Fowey Loop, Mindarie (Anchorage Park) from a Parks and Recreation reserve to a Residential or Commercial zone.

Administration Comment

The City will consider all relevant matters regarding a request to amend the scheme including all those mentioned above.  In this case, following a preliminary review of the proposal it may be difficult to justify the amendment, as it appears that Anchorage Park is an area of Public Open Space, which was ceded to the Crown free of cost to satisfy the POS obligations for subdivision of the area.  To rezone the area will therefore result in a reduction in the amount of POS available in the area, unless additional POS is provided elsewhere to replace it.

Nevertheless, an examination of the status of the reserve and what contribution it provides to the overall open space in the locality can be undertaken.  Once this has been established a review of the merits of rezoning the site can be undertaken and a report presented to Council for further consideration.
