Issue

To consider the expenditure of $15,500 on the purchase and installation of air-conditioning for the newly built Quinns Rocks Volunteer Bush Fire Brigade Station.

Background

The City has four Volunteer Bush Fire Brigades, one of which is located in Quinns Rocks. This is a large, committed and active brigade that provides a very professional level of service to the City. The Brigade’s current accommodation is extremely undersized and after several years of negotiations and planning a new station has been built in Hidden Valley Retreat, Clarkson.

This facility has been built with a combination of State Government, ESL (Emergency Services Levy) and Federal (EMA – Emergency Management Australia) grant funds. As Bush Fire Brigades belong to Local government, this facility is a Council asset. A considerable amount of work and materials have been donated by both the volunteers and the business community. The Brigade has also fundraised extensively for several years to fund the fit out of the new station.

Detail

Due to the increase in building costs since this project was first planned, air-conditioning could not be included in the initial building works. The sum of $15,500 was included for air conditioning in the City’s 2009/2010 Emergency Services Levy (ESL) grant application for capital costs of the City’s bush fire brigades. As there was no certainty that this item would be successful, it was not included in the City’s internal budget, process at that time.

The new station will be operational for the coming fire season and an official opening is currently being planned. Consequently, it is important that the air-conditioning be installed as soon as practicable.

Consultation

Nil

Comment

The FESA ESL grants process has now been completed and the above mentioned $15,500 for air-conditioning was approved. The capital expenditure was not included in the City’s original budget process as funding approval had not been determined at that time. Given that the overall cost will be met by ESL funds, the eventual cost implications for the City are nil.

The building is an asset of the City and any improvements will increase the value of that asset. It is therefore recommended that Council considers and approves the expenditure for the purchase and installation of air-conditioning to provide a suitable work environment for the City Bush Fire Brigade Volunteers.

Statutory Compliance

Budget variation is in compliance with Part 6 – Financial management of the Local Government Act and Part 2 – General Financial Management of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations 1996.

Strategic Implications

Aligns with the City’s Strategic Plan 2006-2021 strategic outcomes by way of:

“Objective 2.4 4 Develop and implement a range of activities that promote community safety and wellbeing.”

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

As this project was not included in the 2009/2010 Adopted Budget an ‘ABSOLUTE MAJORITY’ Council Approval is required to initiate the budget variation in accordance with Section 6.8(1) of the Local Government Act 1995.

Issue

For Council to consider the effect of the introduction of the new Food Act 2008 will have on the assessment of food premises and determine what fees and charges are appropriate in the circumstances.

Background

The Food Act 2008 came into effect on the 23 October 2009 replacing the old food safety provisions under the Health Act 1911. This represents a significant shift in direction of food regulation and management in WA. The old system was prescriptive and subsequently very inflexible. The new Act provides for an outcome based approach and is consistent with other States nationally.

Under the old system premises that served ready to eat meals to members of the public could be classified as an Eating House. These premises could then be charged Licence and Registration fees depending on their type and a transfer fee when sold. As not all food premises provide ready to eat meals, not all food premises fell within this definition and consequently not all food premises have been paying fees. About 50% of food premises within the City were classified as Eating Houses. This financial year approximately $55 000 has been collected as fees and charges imposed on Eating Houses.

Detail

The new Act gives the enforcement agency (being the City of Wanneroo) the power to charge a fee under the Local Government Act 1995 for the performance of a function under the Food Act 2008. The main functions to be performed include approving plans for new premises and routinely inspecting premises once they are operating.

The new system is based on risk, with premises rated either High Risk, Medium Risk, Low Risk or Exempt (such as newsagents and chemists). High risk premises will need to be inspected more frequently than low risk premises. Eating House fees were a fee prescribed in the City’s Health Local Laws 1999. They were $250 for class 1 and 2, $190 for class 3 premises and $30 for a Transfer of Licence fee. Under the new system it will be discretionary to Council, to determine what charges it considers appropriate.

A set inspection fee based on the number of anticipated inspections is the fairest system to be introduced, as it most closely reflects the amount of involvement by the City. Based on guidelines from the Department of Health and information from other Councils, it is proposed to adopt the following inspection frequency:

· High Risk Premises - 3 times a year

· Medium Risk Premises - 2 times a year

· Low Risk Premises - once per year

· Exempt Premises – only where complaints are received

A review of the current listing of premises has indicated that there will be approximately 45 high risk, 300 medium risk, 55 low risk and an unknown number of exempt premises as this information was not previously required and registered.

If supported the proposed inspection frequency regime would equate to approximately 790 inspections required annually. As mentioned previously Council can determine what fee it believes is appropriate in the circumstance. Last year 501 food premise inspections were undertaken by the City’s Environmental Health Officers. Given the increase in inspections to be undertaken further resources in this area may be required upon further analysis.

To provide an indication of projected income for a range of scenarios, the following information is provided based on a set inspection fee for each inspection and in conjunction with the inspection frequency mentioned above;

· Option 1 – no fees charged

· Option 2 - $100 per inspection would see premises pay $100, $200 and $300 respectively based on risk and generate income of approximately $79 000.

· Option 3 - $125 per inspection would see premises pay $125, $250 and $375 respectively based on risk and generate income of approximately $98 750.

· Option 4 - $150 per inspection would see premises pay $150, $300 and $450 respectively based on risk and generate income of approximately $118 500.

Although these fees can be charged as soon as they are approved, given that many premises have already paid the Eating House Licence fees under the old system it is not proposed to implement these charges until the new financial year. This will also provide time for consultation with food premises that have not previously been charged fees. If appropriate certain premises such as charities and community groups can be exempt from these charges.

Consultation

The new Food Act has taken several years to develop. Consultation with food premises began in 2007 and City Officers have provided advice and information when requested. However the ability to fully inform food premises has been limited by a lack of confirmed information from the Department such as when exactly the Act would be gazetted. It is therefore possible that there are a number of food premises that are not aware of the change. In addition a number of food premises have not previously been charged any fees, as they were not classified as Eating Houses. It is proposed that administration will undertake a mail out to all food premises shortly with information of charges and fees once this is decided upon. This will allow food premises time to budget for the new changes.

Comment

For almost half the food premises any fee will be a new fee that they have not previously had to pay. Option 3 is considered to be the closest scenario to the current situation for most Eating House Licences and would see most of their fees remain the same. It is also recommended that the Application and Registration fee be the same as any Inspection fee for ease of processing. All food premise related inspection fees should also be made the same. All fees should be linked to the Consumer Price Index and adjusted accordingly in the future.

It is important to remember that unlike the previous licence fee, the new fees under the Local Government Act 1995 are a fee for service. Therefore if it is decided to charge an inspection fee it is important that the required inspection is undertaken.

Statutory Compliance

The Food Act 2008 places the City of Wanneroo as the Enforcement Agency in relation to food premises within its district and allows fees to be set under the Local Government Act 1995. The Food Act 2008 adopts The Local Government Act 1995 as the power to regulate the manner in which fees can be charged.

Strategic Implications

Aligns with the City’s Strategic Plan 2006-2021 strategic outcomes:

“Objective 2.4 – Improve community safety.”

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

Previously, revenue of approximately $55,000 was generated from Eating House Licence fees. Option 3 of the proposed fee structure was selected as the most appropriate inspection charge, given that, the additional total yearly cost for a high risk premises at a cost of $125 per inspection, will equate to a total of $375 per year, based on 3 inspections. If adopted, the additional fees will generate revenue of approximately $98,750. In accordance with the provisions of The Local Government Act 1995, fees can be reviewed and adjusted on an annual basis.

Issue

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

Background

Clause 14 of the City of Wanneroo’s Animals Local Law 1999 stipulates:

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

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

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

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

Detail

The following application has been made under the Dog Act 1976 and are submitted for Council’s consideration:

Address of Applicant

Description of Dogs

4 Ottawa Way, Wanneroo

Male sterilised black Border Collie

Female sterilised black Border Collie

Male unsterilised black Border Collie

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

Address of Applicant	Property Zoning	Size of Property
4 Ottawa Way, Wanneroo	Residential	0.0810 hectares

Consultation

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

Upon consultation with immediate adjoining neighbours two objections were received on the grounds of barking and excessive smell/odours. It has been the practice that when a barking dog complaint is received, a letter, information pack and a seven-day diary are sent to the complainant. If the seven-day diary is not completed and returned it is assumed that the barking is not considered to be a significant problem. To date a completed seven-day diary has not been returned. The investigating Ranger has advised that the excessive smell/odour was unfounded at the time of his inspection.

Comment

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

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

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

4 Ottawa Way, Wanneroo

The applicant is seeking permission from the City to keep more than two dogs at 4 Ottawa Way, Wanneroo. The applicant advises that the additional dog will be trained in Obedience, Tracking and Dog Dancing. The owner is currently instructing Dog Training Classes and is a “Dancing with Dogs” Judge. Due to health issues with the two current registered dogs the applicant is unable to maintain involvement as a judge and handler, however with the addition of the third dog this will allow her to continue with her commitments as a Trainer and Judge.

A check of the City’s records reveal that prior to this application being made, no complaints from residents have been received concerning the dogs.

The objecting neighbours have been advised of the City’s due process in relation to processing these requests and are aware of their opportunity to raise any further concerns in regard to this application.

The inspecting Ranger advises that the property is adequate for the confinement and exercise of the dogs. The boundary fences are 1.8 metres high at the rear, 1.2 metres at the left side and 2 metres at the right side. The gate at the side is 1.5 metres high. Fences and gates are in compliance with regulations. The dogs are kept in a large sized yard and sleep in the house at night. The Ranger has recommended that an exemption to the City of Wanneroo’s Animals Local Law 1999 made under Section 26(3) of the Dog Act 1976 be granted.

Statutory Compliance

These applications for exemption to Council’s Animals Local Law 1999 made under Section 26(3) of the Dog Act 1976 have been detailed in this report.

Strategic Implications

Aligns with the City’s Strategic Plan 2006-2021 strategic outcomes:

Issue

To consider the provision of a new Animal Care Facility with an associated Pet Crematorium in partnership with the City of Joondalup.

Background

Following a Motion on Notice presented at the 20 February 2007 Ordinary Council Meeting by Cr Rudi Steffens, provision was made in the City’s 2008/09 Budget to commission a feasibility study into the provision of a joint pet crematorium and animal care facility with the City of Joondalup. The outcomes of the feasibility study (Attachment 1) was subsequently presented at the Council Forum on 14 July 2009 by the Consultants engaged, CRL Consulting.

Detail

The Consultants in briefing Elected Members at the Forum in July this year outlined a number of key outcomes from their study:

· A joint venture animal care facility will provide a new, state of the art facility with costs spread over a wider rate base;

· Inclusion of a crematorium service gives both local governments an additional income stream;

· The crematorium service should significantly reduce the net cost of operation, which has the potential to further reduce costs;

· Servicing a potentially unmet demand within the community for an acceptable means of disposal of a pet;

· Efficiency gains for both local governments in the form of ranger staff time;

· A new differentiated facility gives an opportunity to reposition the image and practice of animal control within both local governments;

· The cremation service should only be added if a new animal care facility is going to be constructed; and

· A number of sites were identified, with the main option being the existing Ashby Operations Centre.

At this Forum discussion also focussed upon the current global economic environment and budget needs and priorities of the City.

Since this time discussions have occurred at an Administration level both with the City of Joondalup and Mindarie Regional Council, to explore possible locations for the facility and discuss a range of matters in relation to the provision of such a facility.

The City of Joondalup appears unable to provide any land parcels for use, and would prefer the City to run the facility as a service provision to them, as they currently outsource their services to the RSPCA. The City of Joondalup also had a greater need in relation to housing cats given the recent introduction of their new Cat Local Law, however it is understood this has subsequently been rescinded. The Mindarie Regional Council has also been contacted in relation to both the provision of land, or a possible owner operator model for such a facility.

Comment

Administration has been focussing on the current concurrent priorities of enabling, via tender, the provision of Community Safety Patrols and a Close Circuit Television Network (CCTV) for the City, and as such has not actively pursued this possible future City facility in the past four months.

It is recommended that more formal discussions and correspondence be entered into with both of these parties to enable this project to be considered in budget discussions for 2010/11 and the associated 10 years plans.

Statutory Compliance

Nil.

Strategic Implications

The provision of such a facility is associated with the following Objectives of the City’s Strategic Plan 2006-2021:

“Objective 2.4 Improve Community Safety

Objective 3.2 Improve Regional Infrastructure”.

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

No budget provision for this facility has been identified in the City’s 10 Year Capital Works Plan.

Administration further advises that upon further review of the Feasibility Study undertaken by CRL Consulting, it does not agree to the Operating Budget shown on page 7 of 11 within the Attachment, and that any future budget bid will require a re-examination of these figures.

Issue

To consider the evaluation of Tender 09038 Safer Suburbs CCTV Project and Tender 09039 Wanneroo Town Centre CCTV Project.

Background

In 2008 the City of Wanneroo (the City) was successful in receiving funding of $1,000,000 for the design and implementation of a strategy for CCTV within the City, under the Commonwealth Government’s Safer Suburbs Plan. To this end, an agreement was signed between the Department of the Attorney General and the City in November 2008.

Under the terms of the Agreement, the project is comprised of two phases:

1. To conduct a feasibility study to develop a design and implementation strategy for the installation of CCTV within the City; and

2. The installation of CCTV systems inclusive of ‘mobile CCTV solutions’ being considered, in conjunction with the commencement of Community Patrols.

In addition the City was awarded a State Government grant for a CCTV project focussing on the Wanneroo Town Centre, which was considered by Council on 30 June 2009 (CD11-06/09). Expenditure of $160,000 was approved for this project.

CCTV locations for the Safer Suburbs and Wanneroo Town Centre CCTV Projects were reported to Council on 13 October 2009 as follows:

Girrawheen – The area bounded by Marangaroo Drive, Balgonie Avenue and Templeton Crescent, this includes the Newpark Shopping Centre, TAB, Tavern, Saigon Business Centre and various fast food outlets. Incidents of crime being experienced in this area consist of antisocial behaviour, graffiti, vandalism, theft, and hooning.

Marangaroo - Paloma Park and the Alexander Heights Community Centre. A CCTV camera currently exists in Paloma Park with footage recorded at the Alexander Heights Community Centre. It is suggested that this camera is upgraded and additional cameras placed to increase the capability for this area. Incidents being experienced in this area consist of assaults, robberies, antisocial behaviour, graffiti, vandals, theft and hoon behavior

Clarkson - Ocean Keys Boulevard between Key Largo Drive and Connelly Drive and the area of the road leading to the railway station and around the Whale and Ale Tavern and Clarkson Youth Centre. Incidents being experience in this area consist of hooning, antisocial behaviour, graffiti, theft, drunken and disorderly conduct, and general crime incidents.

In addition to the above, four mobile units are also proposed as part of the Safer Suburbs Project for installation in patrol vehicles for Community Safety Patrols.

In regard to the Wanneroo Town Centre CCTV Project, a series of cameras are being suggested for placement to cover vehicle and pedestrian movements in Dundebar Road, Civic Drive, Wanneroo Road and Rocca Way.

Council at its meeting of 13 October 2009, considered a report (Item CB05-10/09) Provision of Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) Systems and adopted the following resolutions;

“That Council:-

1. NOTES the identified locations and mobile applications that have been selected to support the installation of CCTV systems within the City;

2. APPROVES of advertising three tenders for the provision of CCTV equipment associated with the Safer Suburbs Project (Federal Grant Program) and Wanneroo Town Centre Project and instructs the Chief Executive Officer to proceed in accordance with the provisions of the Local Government Act 1995; and

3. DELEGATE BY ABSOLUTE MAJORITY to the Chief Executive Officer the authority to determine the CCTV Equipment Tenders in accordance with the Local Government Act (Functions and General) Regulations 1996 (in addition to the current delegated authority to the Chief Executive Officer to award tenders to a maximum of $250,000) up to a combined value of $890,000.”

The City subsequently completed tender specifications and advertised for the design, supply and installation of CCTV for both projects. The tenders closed on 10 November 2009.

Detail

Tenders 09038 (Safer Suburbs CCTV Project) and 09039 (Wanneroo Town Centre CCTV Project) were advertised on Saturday 21 October 2009 and closed on Tuesday 10 November 2009.

Consultation

Amlec House Security Consultants assisted in the tender selection process to verify the technical specifications as contained in the tender documentation as part of the Tender Evaluation Team.

Comment

The tender evaluation has been undertaken in accordance with the selection criteria outlined in the tender documents and the City’s requirements. However, in evaluating the tenders the value of products and services offered has exceeded the estimated $890,000 previously delegated to the Chief Executive Officer. Approval is therefore sought from Council in determining both tenders.

The Tender Evaluation Team are of the opinion that the proposal submitted by Prestige Alarms will deliver the performance and functionality required by the City. Whilst the initial cost of the design, supply and installation of the system is greater than other tenders, the benefits this system will provide in terms of end operating cost and reliability can justify the initial expenditure.

Of particular note in the submission from Prestige was a 36-month warranty provided for equipment compared to 12 months provided by other tenders. The level of detail provided and the functionality of the system and monitoring room provision was also considered of a high quality in comparison to other tenders.

Statutory Compliance

Tenders were invited in accordance with the requirements of Section 3.57 of the Local Government Act 1995. The tender procedures and evaluation complied with the requirements of Part 4 of the Local Government (Functions and General) Regulations 1996.

Governance and Executive Services has reviewed the tender selection process for fairness and compliance and is satisfied with the evaluation process.

Strategic Implications

The installation of a CCTV system within the City is linked to Section 2.4 of the City’s 2006-2021 Strategic Plan outcome objective:

“Social 2.4 Improve Community Safety”.

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

The costs of the design, supply and installation of fixed and mobile CCTV systems as described in the tender documents for the Safer Suburbs CCTV Project is estimated to cost $860,714.00. These funds are available under the grant provided to the City by the Federal Attorney General.

The estimated cost for the design supply and installation of CCTV equipment for the Wanneroo Town Centre is $179,310, which exceeds the available Office of Crime Prevention grant of $160,000. Contact with the Office of Crime Prevention has established that additional funds are not available and a request to the Minister will be considered to secure the additional funds. An alternative option is to reduce the number of cameras to be utilised in the Town Centre project from 8 to 6, which is supported by Administration. As such the tender is recommended to be capped at $160,000.

The total combined tender costs for the Safer Suburbs and Wanneroo Town Centre CCTV Projects is $1,040,024.

Issue

To consider the evaluation of Tender 09037 Provision of Community Safety Patrols.

Background

In 2008 Administration carried out a community perceptions survey to evaluate and monitor performance across a range of services and facilities undertaken by the City. Results of that survey clearly indicated that ‘Safety and Security’ was one of the community’s major concerns and priorities.

Given the survey results and community concerns, administration subsequently undertook a review of the City’s Community Safety Program and explored the potential for the reintroduction of Community Safety Patrols. This was reported to Council at its meeting of 30 June 2009 (CD13-06/09). In reintroducing the safety patrols it was considered that this program would significantly complement the Federal Government funded CCTV Program which is also proposed to be introduced in the near future across the City.

Council at its meeting of 13 October 2009 resolved:

“That Council:-

1. APPROVES of advertising a tender for the provision of a Community Patrol

Service, and instructs the Chief Executive Officer to proceed in accordance with

the provisions of the Local Government Act 1995;

2. DELEGATE BY ABSOLUTE MAJORITY to the Chief Executive Officer the

authority to determine the Community Safety Patrol Tender in accordance with

the Local Government Act (Functions and General) Regulations 1996 (in addition

to the current delegated authority to the Chief Executive Officer to award tenders

to a maximum of $250,000) up to the value of $450,000; and

3. NOTES the branding of the vehicles as depicted in Attachment 1 of this report.

CARRIED BY ABSOLUTE MAJORITY”

The City subsequently completed tender specifications and advertised for the provision of Community Safety Patrol Services for a period of 12 months with an option for up to an additional two years providing performance indicators are met and there is a high level of community satisfaction with the Patrol Service.

In evaluating the submitted tenders, it recently became apparent that the tender value exceeded the Chief Executive Officers $450,000 limit provided by Council’s Resolution of 13 October 2009. Accordingly this report is seeking Councils approval for this tender.

Detail

Tender 09037 for the Provision of Community Safety Patrol Services was advertised on Saturday 17 October 2009 and closed on Tuesday 10 November 2009.

Consultation

This tender was evaluated in consultation with representation from the Western Australian Police Service (WA Police ).

Comment

The tender evaluation has been undertaken in accordance with the selection criteria outlined in the City’s tender documents. The Senior Sergeant, of Wanneroo Police Sub-District assisted in assessing the technical specifications as contained in the Tender documentation.

The Tender Evaluation Team agreed unanimously that Accord Security P/L have the relevant experience and resources to ensure an effective service can be provided. Relevant key performance indicators and evaluation of the service will be undertaken on a regular basis by Officers of the City to ensure compliance and contractual requirements are met.

Statutory Compliance

Tenders were invited in accordance with the requirements of Section 3.57 of the Local Government Act 1995. The Tender procedures and evaluation complied with the requirements of Part 4 of the Local Government (Functions and General) Regulations 1996.

Governance and Executive Services has reviewed the tender selection process for fairness and compliance and is satisfied with the evaluation process.

Strategic Implications

The provision of Community Safety Patrols within the City is consistent with Section 2.4 of the City’s 2006-2021 Strategic Plan outcome objective:

“Social 2.4 Improve Community Safety”.

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

It was estimated that an approximate cost for a four officer service to undertake the Community Safety Patrols, seven days per week for a 12-month period was within the vicinity of $450,000. Tender submissions now accurately indicate that the service will cost $550,000 per annum for a four officer service operating from 6.00pm to 6.00am seven days a week.

Council at its meeting of 26 June 2009, resolved in it’s 10 year strategic financial management plan for the year ending 30 June 2010 to include $250,000 for the introduction of the Safety Patrols.

The operating cost of the service per month equates to $45,833. Given the anticipated commencement date for the service is now at the end of January 2010, expenditure of approximately $229,000 will be required from the approved 2009/2010 financial budget.

It is noted that the remaining 7 months of service provision within the contract estimated to cost $321,000 for 2010/2011 will need to be included in the 2010/2011 budget process and as the contract is for a 12 month period with an option for a further two years dependent on satisfactory performance and community satisfaction, additional funds need to be provided if any additional contract period is granted.

Issue

To consider a proposal from the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) to create a regional park between Mindarie and Burns Beach with the City of Wanneroo responsible for the coastal reserve bordering the regional park within the City’s boundaries.

Background

On 12 February 2008 and 6 June 2008, Council received two separate petitions requesting the installation of a coastal dual use path between Mindarie and Burns Beach. At its meeting on
1 July 2008, Council resolved: ( IN01-07/08 Refers).

“1. APPLIES to the State Government to amalgamate the parcels of land reserved ‘Parks and Recreation’ in the Metropolitan Region Scheme between Burns Beach and Mindarie, west of Marmion Avenue and create a Regional Park under the care, control and maintenance of the Department of Environment and Conservation;

2. REQUESTS the State Government to develop a management and infrastructure implementation plan for this proposed regional park, incorporating a shared pathway between Burns Beach and Mindarie and associated facilities;

3. SEEKS the support of the City of Joondalup for the proposal; and

4. ADVISE the petition organisers of the Council’s decision.”

The WAPC has agreed to create the regional park and is now seeking Council’s agreement to accept care and control of the coastal reserve abutting the regional park.

Detail

The WAPC’s proposal will create a new coastal conservation park between Burns Beach to the south and Mindarie to the north and Marmion Avenue to the east, comprising approximately 380 hectares of high quality coastal vegetation located entirely within Bush Forever site #322. The WAPC letter and plan are shown as Attachment 1.

The Minister for Planning and Infrastructure has approved the formation of a Community Advisory Committee (CAC) to the WAPC to prepare an Establishment Plan outlining the land tenure and the long-term management of the primary conservation values within the park.

The park will be managed by the Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC). The CAC membership includes the City’s Deputy Mayor, Cr Roberts and Coordinator Environmental Planning.

The WAPC and CAC are seeking in principle agreement from the City to the following:

1. The City continuing to manage Coastal Reserve 35890, which is within the proposed park;

2. The City continuing to manage a part of Coastal Reserve 20561, which is also within the proposed park, for the future establishment of recreational areas and associated infrastructure; and

3. The land parcel of high conservation value within Reserve 20561 being revested to the Conservation Commission and managed by DEC.

Refer to Attachment 2 for a plan showing the current and proposed land responsibilities.

The Establishment Plan and 10-year Management Plan will address the details related to land tenure and management responsibilities. These plans will be developed in conjunction with the City, WAPC and CAC with a primary consideration given to protection of sensitive foredunes and coastal vegetation.

It is also proposed that a shared coastal dual-use pathway will be constructed from Burns Beach to Mindarie on the boundary between the coastal recreational reserve and the core conservational park. The path is considered to form part of the strategic coastal linkage and provide significant benefit to the local community.

The City of Joondalup considered this proposal at its meeting in July 2009 (CJ165-07/09) and gave in principle support for the proposal for the immediate Foreshore Reserve, not the land between the foreshore Reserve and the Regional Park. Refer Attachment 3 for City of Joondalup’s letter and resolution.

Comment

This proposal will provide better access to the coastline to allow the recreational values of the area to be utilised, as requested by the local community. The coastline of the proposed park includes some clean sandy beaches that have been identified safe for coastal recreation by the Department for Planning and Infrastructure coastal engineering study and by a study conducted by Surf Lifesaving WA.

The proposed new park will create an east-west bushland corridor from the Neerabup National Park to the coast and protect the integrity, function and environmental values of remaining dunal systems within the northern Metropolitan Areas.

Similar to the resolution by the City of Joondalup, the City of Wanneroo should only be responsible for the land that serves a recreational purpose and the remaining sections of Reserves 20561 and 35890 should be included within the proposed Regional Reserve, with the boundary of the Foreshore Reserve to be negotiated with the WAPC, with a possible area indicated on Attachment 2. It may therefore not be appropriate that the route of the coastal path lie within land that will remain under the control of the City of Wanneroo.

Strategic Implications

The proposed creation of a new conservation reserve is consistent with the following goals and strategies of the City of Wanneroo Strategic Plan 2006-2021:

Issue

To consider amendments to the 2009-2010 Foreshore Management Capital Works Program.

Background

The adopted Foreshore Management Plans (FMP’s) for Mindarie-Quinns Rock and Two Rocks –Yanchep coastal areas identifies the need for several beach accesses. Most of the access ways in this area are still informal, however some formal accesses have been installed under either capital works enhancement programs or as part of sub-divisional works.

Funds have been allocated in the Foreshore Management Capital Works Program for the design of beach accesses at Quinns Rock, Two Rocks and Yanchep. With recent erosion of the frontal dunes, some of the existing formal beach accesses have deteriorated structurally and now require either extensive upgrading or total replacement, whilst other locations are now considered to be unsuitable for a permanent access.

The following projects are included in the 2009/10 Budget, of which two locations have been impacted by the erosion leaving only the proposed beach access at Yanchep being considered to remain feasible for constructing a permanent access:

Project No	Description	Funds
PR 1487	Quinns Rock Foreshore – North Quinns Rocks - Design and consultation for the upgrade of existing beach access stairs opposite 208 Ocean Drive	$19,400
PR 1909	Construction of Beach Access Stairs opposite 208 Ocean Drive	$100,000
PR 1453	Yanchep Foreshore North – Install beach access fencing	$29,100

Detail

There are a number of other beach access points recommended by approved FMP’s and not affected by beach erosion problems which could be brought forward in the program of works. These are summarised below:

Beach Access – Camira Way, Quinns Rocks (Attachment 1)

While the beach at this location is subject to seasonal erosion, it is controlled by a groyne, providing protection for future infrastructure. This is a well used path to the dog beach and a more permanent and safe structure is supported.

Beach Access from Queenscliffe Park (Attachment 2)

This is a well used path to the beach from Queenscliffe Park, however there is a need to provide an improved structure at the western end.

Beach Access opposite 40 Brazier Road, Yanchep (Attachment 3)

Funding has been approved in the budget for the installation of fencing at this location. It is considered that these funds would provide a greater benefit to the community if reallocated towards the upgrade of the beach access at this location

Comment

The additional expenditure on design of the beach accesses is essential to undertake an analysis of coastal processes as part of the design procedure, to ensure that in future, coastal infrastructure is constructed in a manner that will accommodate the natural movement of the shoreline. It is also necessary to produce these designs at least a year in advance of construction to provide adequate time for obtaining the approvals required under various legislation.

Administration supports these amendments to the current Foreshore Budget and the 10-year Capital Works Program to reflect these changes. The proposed changes in expenditure of funds will provide better long-term outcomes for coastal accesses for local residents and public in general.

Statutory Compliance

The budget variation is in compliance with Part 6 - Financial Management of the Local Government Act and Part 2 - General Financial Management of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations 1996

Strategic Implications

The design and construction for the projects proposed as part of the City’s Draft 10-year Capital Works Program are consistent with the following goals and strategies of the City of Wanneroo Strategic Plan 2006-2021:

“Environmental

1.6 Minimise impact of development on natural landforms

1.7 Improve the physical quality of the built environment

Social

2.1 Increase choice and quality of neighbourhood and life style options”

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

The changes have no overall impact on the current budget. Additional funds will be required to be included into the City’s 10-year Capital Works Program. It is noted that funding has been allocated in 2011/2012 for the construction of the beach access opposite 40 Brazier Road, Yanchep.

Issue

To consider an invitation from the State Underground Power Steering Committee, on behalf of the State Government, to submit an Expression of Interest in Round Five: Major Residential Projects of the Underground Power Program.

Background

Severe storms in May 1994 resulted in widespread blackouts across Perth in which power supplies were badly affected. As a consequence the State Government established the State Underground Power Program (SUPP) to embark on converting overhead power supplies to encourage the implementation of underground power. Its stated long-term goal when first announced was to have at least half the houses in Perth supplied with underground power by the year 2010. The management of the SUPP is overseen by the Underground Power Steering Committee, chaired by the Office of Energy and has representatives from Western Power and Western Australian Local Government Association.

The SUPP has the following two streams:

· Major Residential Projects (MRPs) - the undergrounding of distribution lines in suburban residential areas consisting usually between 800 and 1,300 properties

· Localised Enhancement Projects (LEPs) which targets non-metropolitan areas which may only involve the undergrounding of around 1,000 metres of distribution lines. LEPs aim to beautify “gateways”, traffic routes of significance and centres of tourism and/or heritage.

The City of Wanneroo has declined in the past to submit applications due to time and budget constraints (Items TS134-04/95, TS57-04/98 and TS05-03/02 refers).

Detail

The selection process for Round Five will be undertaken in two-stages, which, whilst it may lengthen the time for selection, will reduce the cost for local authorities and shorten the overall time to implementation. It will also provide more certainty with regard to costs and scope of the project, prior to an agreement being finalised with the local authority. The two stages are as follows:

1. Expression of Interest (EOI) Stage:

Rather than seeking proposals for projects in the first instance, the Steering Committee proposes to only seek an EOI from Councils to participate.

Under this proposal, Councils will be able to nominate the areas in which they are interested in undergrounding power without backing up their EOI with a lengthy submission and definitive evidence of community support. It will reduce the cost of submission preparation for local authorities.

2. Detailed Proposal Stage:

Once EOI’s have been submitted, Western Power and the Office of Energy will short-list a number of municipalities. Short-listed Councils will be invited to develop detailed proposals in consultation with Western Power and the Office of Energy.

Issues such as level of community support, final project boundaries, Western Power design and costs and the draft Agreement will be resolved in co-operation with Western Power, the respective Council and the Office of Energy, prior to a project being finally selected and approved for funding. Previously, many of these issues have only been addressed subsequent to projects being approved.

The funding of agreed projects is to be shared equally between the State and the participating government authority, funded 50% Local Government, 25% Western Power and 25% State Government. The Steering Committee has also introduced a further subsidy of 15% of the total cost to local government authorities to encourage areas of low socio–economic status to take part in SUPP. It is however intended that this additional subsidy is limited to one area identified as being of low socio–economic status in the SUPP. The Socio Economic Index For Areas (SEIFA) developed by the Australian Bureau of Statistics will determine eligibility.

Further information can be obtained from SUPP “Guidelines for Round Five Major Residential Projects” publication. A copy of these guidelines has been placed in the Elected Members’ reading room

Previously, Council may have chosen to submit a smaller area for a Localised Enhancement Project, such as Wanneroo Road in the Wanneroo Town Centre. This would be comparable to similar projects funded in previous rounds of the scheme, however at present only the scheme for Major Residential Projects has received funding.

Comment

The estimated average cost of retrospectively undergrounding power is around $5,000 to $6,000 per lot. The actual costs vary considerably depending on the soil type, housing density, and congestion of the underground services in the road reserve and other factors.

The areas that could benefit from this program are mainly the City’s older suburbs of Marangaroo, Girrawheen, Koondoola, Alexander Heights, Wanneroo, Quinns Rocks, Two Rocks and Yanchep.

A firm costing for each individual project is not available and the likely cost of reinstatement works cannot be identified. The short time frame to register an interest in the project does not enable detailed costing or financial implications to be adequately addressed.

Based on a minimum cost of $5,000 per property and undergrounding of power lines to 1,200 properties per round of funding, ie., criteria set at 800 properties as a minimum to 1300 maximum, the total cost to a single project would be in the order of $6M. With the State Government’s commitment to contribute 50% of the costs over two years, the City’s contribution would be in the order of $3M over the two year period.

The cost to Council could, in part be offset by a 50% contribution from the individual property owners, who will receive the benefit of the scheme directly through a better level of service and improved streetlighting and indirectly through increased property prices. Such a scheme does occur with some Councils taking part in the program.

The funding of the undergrounding of all power within the City needs to be considered. On review of a suburb, such as Girrawheen, where the number of properties connected to power is in the order of 3,400 and with a rate of $5,000 per property, this would equate to a total cost of $17M, with 50% to be contributed by the City.

Notwithstanding the source of Council’s funding, the supply of power and the associated infrastructure it is the responsibility of the State Government through Western Power. The Underground Power Program achieves renewal and upgrade of Western Power’s infrastructure, with 50% paid for by the City’s ratepayers.

Should Council wish to progress with an application for Underground Power, the amount of funding to be provided from the affected residents and the mechanism to provide any funding must be considered. The two main options are for the City to fund its share of the cost of the underground works or adopt a user pays principle.

Based on the scenario above for 1,200 properties, the cost to Council would be in the order of $3M per project over two years, ie, $1.5M annually.

A user pays principle appears consistent with the likely direct benefits provided to the affected residents. Other Councils have adopted this funding principle. A major factor in the selection criteria influencing the progress of the underground power program is that the application has the support and acceptance of the affected community and the City’s ratepayers in general to establish the funding arrangements. It is suggested that a Community Survey be conducted to determine the level of community support for underground power and whether property owners would be prepared to fully fund the local government 50% contribution to the scheme.

Should Council consider a funding application for this round of the program-, then Council should consider funding the undergrounding of power for the remainder of the City. Any decision to contribute towards the SUPP will need to take into account of the continuing financial commitment for the City should undergrounding of power be progressed.

Statutory Compliance

Strategic Implications

The undergrounding of power is consistent with the City of Wanneroo Strategic Plan (2006/2021) outcome and objective:

“Healthy Communities

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

Policy Implications

Any decisions and commitment to the program will increase pressures on the City’s budget in future proposals for other eligible areas in the municipality. A policy will need to be developed whereby any decisions made to fund these projects are equitable should it be agreed to proceed with an underground power program.

Financial Implications

A contribution from Council towards the provision of underground power is not included in the 10 Year Capital Works Budget. To incorporate any funding, projects already within the budget will have to be deferred.

Recommendation

That Council:-

1. DOES NOT submit an application for Round Five Major Residential Projects of the State Underground Power Program, as it considers such a program should be wholly funded by the State Government as it is part of its asset management responsibility; and

2. CONSIDERS, as a New Initiative in the 2010/2011 Operating Budget, funding to undertake community surveys in the suburbs of Marangaroo, Girrawheen, Koondoola, Alexander Heights, Wanneroo, Quinns Rocks, Two Rocks and Yanchep to determine the level of community support to participate and contribute the whole of Council’s contribution toward the State Underground Power Program on a user pays principle in readiness for the next round of invitations scheduled for 2012.

Issue

To consider amendments to the Public Guidance In Roads Reserves Policy No. 7.3.10.

Background

The current Public Guidance Signage in Road Reserves Policy was implemented in May 2001, reviewed in 2003, 2005, 2007 and was due for renewal on 1 March 2009.

Detail

The key changes are detailed below and have been made in the revised policy.

Policy Objectives

Two objectives have been added to this section to provide better definition of suitable locations:

“Ensure that advertising signs are consistent with and appropriate to their location and function and;

Prevents visual pollution of advertising signs and avoids dangerous placements to both pedestrians and vehicular traffic.”

2.1 Direction Signs (Urban Areas)

This policy has been amended to comply with Australian Standard AS1742.5-1997 Part 5: Street name and Community facility name signs. Descriptions have been to correspond with Main Roads WA approval.

This changed section is:

2.1.1(a) Public Guidance to the location of facilities (generally of a non-commercial nature) such as:

Town Halls, Municipal Offices, Civic Centres, Depots and Libraries;
Rubbish Disposal and Recycling Sites;

Churches and Religious institutions;

Hospitals;

Sporting Recreational grounds and facilities;

Tertiary education facilities;

Non-profit Organisations;

Cultural Institutions;

Police Stations, Post Offices;

Railways Stations, and Coach Stations;

Shopping Centres (see clause 2.1.1(b);

Medical Centres, Veterinary Clinics, Dentists.

2.1.1(b) On review of this section, Administration has concluded that due to the numerous requests for individual signage within a Shopping Complex and the limited space available the following would apply:

Commercial services and facilities, however a sign will not be approved for an establishment that forms part of a larger complex (ie: a fingerboard sign will not be approved for a delicatessen within a shopping centre).

2.1.2 Description list reduced to more “general” descriptors.

Wording is to be ‘generic’ in nature to avoid direct advertising of business names with the wording standardised eg Shopping Centre, Medical Centre, Child Care Centre etc.

2.1.4 Section amended to correspond with the City’s District Planning Scheme Number 2 (DPS2). The scheme has been developed to minimise the occurrence of signage to ensure a high level of amenity is maintained in a residential area. ‘Offsite” advertising for any home business is inconsistent with the scheme provisions and may have a detrimental affect on local area amenity and therefore should be excluded from the City’s Streets signage Policy.

Direction Signs reflecting home businesses are not permitted within a residential area

(to ensure a high level of amenity).

2.1.6 This amendment to the Policy is in accordance with Australian Standard AS1742.5-1997.

Where community facility name signs or similar signs are installed on the same post as a street name sign, the street name sign shall be located above the other signs and there shall be a clearance of at least 150mm between the bottom of the street name plate sign and the top of any other sign.

Due to the restriction in the number of signs at any one location, City Administration has amended the Policy as follows to reflect priority.

Due to the limit of five direction signs per intersection, commercial business will have to be considered in order of priority in providing aid or comfort over and above other commercial enterprises eg:

· Medical Centres;

· Dental Surgeries;

· Veterinary Clinic;

· Pharmacies etc.

Consultation

A briefing on this policy amendment was given to Council forum on 24 November 2009.

Comment

These amendments will result in the “Public Guidance Signage In Roads Policy” being more streamlined and easier to administer for the organisation and easier for community groups and organisations groups to apply for and:

· Prevent visual pollution of advertising signs and avoids dangerous placements to both pedestrians and vehicular traffic.

· Descriptions amended to correspond with Main Roads WA policy.

· Priority given to Commercial Businesses providing aid or comfort over and above other commercial enterprises.

Statutory Compliance

Strategic Implications

The Public Guidance In Road Reserves – Policy Review is consistent with the following City of Wanneroo Strategic Plan 2006-2021 objectives and outcomes;

“Social - Healthy, safe vibrant and connected communities.

2.4 Improve community safety;

Economic - A prosperous region achieved through economic growth and employments.

3.5 Increase support for new and existing businesses”.

Policy Implications

The purpose of this report is to recommend changes to the Public Guidance Signage In Road Reserves Policy Number 7.3.10

The intent of the Public Guidance Signage In Road Reserves Policy is to provide public guidance signage to assist the public in locating community and commercial services and facilities within the City of Wanneroo.

Reviewing this policy supports Council’s objective of reviewing and developing policies covering signage within the City of Wanneroo.

Issue

To consider a review of Nature Strip (Verge) Treatment – Protective Devices Policy.

Background

The current Nature Strip (Verge) Treatment – Protective Devices policy was adopted by Council at its meeting on 23 September 2003. A review of this policy was undertaken in 2005, which recommended that no changes to the policy were needed. This remains the City’s current policy on Nature Strip (Verge) Protection Devices. Refer Attachment 1.

At the Council meeting of 16 December 2008, Cr Newton presented a Motion on Notice (Item MN02-12/08 refers) regarding Nature Strip Protection Devices. It was indicated that due to increased levels of damage to the nature strips due to hooning,. The following recommendation was adopted:

“That Council REQUESTS Administration to urgently review the Policy – “Nature Strip Treatments – Protective Devices” and the Local Government and Public Property Local Law 1999 to seek a solution to allow residents to obtain approval from Council when due to ongoing incidents, feel they need to install a protective device on their nature strip, subject to applications only being considered from residents who can demonstrate ongoing hooning and associated damage to the nature strip outside their place of residence.”

Detail

The matters relating to verge treatment – protective devices has been considered by Council previously. Research into the issues associated with verge protective devices was undertaken and presented to Council on 13 March 2007 (Item IN04-03/07 refers). Attachment 2 contains extracts from this item relating to the Local Government Act 1995 and Local Government (Uniform Local Provisions) Regulations 1996, as well as advice from the Local Government Insurance Services WA, presented to Council previously.

Council has local laws restricting the type of material that can be used on the nature strip, some residents would like to protect their fences, walls and homes by installing protective device such as bollards. The current preferred option is to allow for a modified higher semi-mountable or barrier kerb, paid for by the adjacent property owner, with water sensitive, landscape treatments to the nature strip. This type of treatment, with 600mm high shrubs, planted 1.5m from the kerb edge is considered to be less attractive to hoon drivers.

Further research has been undertaken to determine practices adopted by other local authorities in this regard. This research shows that the City’s guidelines are very similar in content, which in summary include:

· That a portion of the verge area immediately adjacent to the kerb area being kept free of any planting.

· The garden does not include any walls, built structures or obstructions of any kind.

· The garden does not create any sight obstructions for pedestrians or people driving vehicles.

The City of Swan recently produced Landscaping Guidelines for Streetscapes and Public Space dated 3 August 2009, which advise that:

“Bollards shall be located on the property boundary or, where appropriate, aligned with peripheral tree planting”.

In ‘industrial or commercial’ areas the City has previously permitted the installation of ‘pine logs’ as a verge treatment protection device. However, this potentially leaves the City to liability should incidents causing personal or property damage occur involving bollards in the road reserve. Even if the City does decide to change Local Laws and make provision for ‘bollards’ or other types of devices to support property owners who want to protect their nature strips from hoon activity, there are serious risk management issues for the City that could potentially expose the City to legal claims and challenges.

The application of the City of Swan’s guidelines therefore is considered more appropriate. Accordingly, it is proposed that the policy relating to commercial and industrial properties is brought in line with that of residential properties, by prohibiting any form of bollard or obstruction from being installed on the nature strip. A similar treatment which would allow the installation of a modified higher semi-mountable or barrier kerb, paid for by the adjacent property owner, with water sensitive landscape treatments to the nature strip, is recommended. The property owner would also be allowed to install bollards or peripheral trees aligned with their fence.

A change in the practice relating to Industrial/Commercial areas would not alter the circumstances relating to those properties which have already installed bollards or similar treatment in the road reserve. This situation is similar to the situation of illegal verge treatments throughout the City. As advised to Council (Item IN09-09/08 refers) the City does not proactively monitor and enforce Section 8 of the Local Government and Public Property Law 1999 (Amendment Local Law 2008), however there is a process in place to respond to any specific complaints that are received. Actions undertaken in this regard are often low priority tasks. To facilitate the process of more proactively clearing up non-compliant verge treatments significant additional resources would be required.

In light of advice received, it is considered injudicious to recommend an amendment to the Council’s Local Government and Public Property Local Law 1999 and Nature Strip Treatments – Protective Devices to allow for the construction of protective devices on nature strips. The following three main amendments to the current Nature Strip Treatment – Protective Devices Policy are proposed:

1. The installation of bollards or any other form of obstruction will not be permitted in residential, commercial or industrial areas.

2. Bollards are only permitted on private land at the property fence.

3. Semi-mountable or barrier kerbing may be installed adjacent to the nature strip for residential, commercial or industrial areas.

Consultation

The review of this policy and the proposed amendment was discussed at the Council Forum held on 1 December 2009 and it was decided to present this matter to the Council at this meeting.

Comment

In observance with the previous legal advice and insurance implications, Administration does not support the installation of protective devices such as bollards and non-frangible structures within the road reserve. The City need to be proactive in eliminating any risks associated with the installation of such devices. Therefore an amended policy, without the provision of bollards or non-frangible structures within the road reserve as verge protection devices is supported.

Statutory Compliance

Nil

Strategic Implications

The review of the Nature Strip (Verge) Policy is consistent with the City’s strategic plan (2006-2021) outcome objective: -

“Social

Healthy, safe, vibrant and connected communities”

Policy Implications

It is proposed that the City amend the “Nature Strip Treatment – Protective Devices” policy to specifically include residential, commercial and industrial verge areas.

Financial Implications

The amendment to the policy does not have direct financial implications to the City. However, should the Council proceed with a proactive approach in dealing with the issue of verge obstructions, additional resources will be required to effectively manage this responsibility. The additional resources comprising a Technical Officer, a vehicle and associated overheads will cost in the order of $100,000 per annum potentially for up to a three-year period.

Extract from council Report Item IN04-03/07

Details of the City’s current policy, local law, extracts from the Local Government (Uniform Local Provisions) Regulations 1996, advice received from the City’s insurance broker – Local Government Insurance Services WA, legal advice from the City’s lawyers Woodhouse Legal and the Department of Local Government and Regional development regarding this issue, is outlined below:

Policy – “Nature Strip Treatments – Protective Devices”

Council’s current policy allows for “property owners to make written submissions to the City’s Director Infrastructure for the installation of semi mountable kerbing or bollards within the nature strip to protect landscaping, water reticulation systems and to discourage parking on the nature strip”. Residential property owners may only make application for semi mountable kerbing whilst commercial property owners may apply for the installation of bollards. The policy (Attachment 1) further details conditions relating to both semi mountable kerbing and bollards.

Council’s Local Law prescribes that “A person shall not on or from any local government property, without having first obtained a written approval from the local government to do so…

(g) Carry out any works in a street, thoroughfare or other public place, including but not limited to: -

(i) Nature strip (verge) treatments;

(ii) Vehicle crossing treatment.”

Part 8 of the Local Law prescribes permissible nature strip treatments and the owner and occupier’s responsibilities for nature strip treatments, which relate only to the planting and maintenance of lawn and garden and installing a hard surface. The local law supports the City’s policy requiring written approval to allow for further treatments such as semi mountable kerbing to protect residential nature strip.

The Local Government Act 1995 and Local Government (Uniform Local Provisions) Regulations 1996

The above Act and Regulation sets out conditions relating to the construction of anything in a public thoroughfare or public place without the permission of the local government.

The Local Government Act 1995, Sch. 9.1 cl. 8 refers: -

“8. Private works on, over, or under public places

(1) Regulations may be made to prohibit or control the construction of anything on, over, or under a public thoroughfare or other public place that is local government property.

(2) Subclause (1) does not apply to the construction of things by or on behalf of the Crown or under the authority of an Act.

(3) Regulations cannot authorise permanent or unreasonable obstruction of the ordinary and reasonable use of the public thoroughfare or other public place for the purpose to which it is dedicated.

Attachment 2

Page 2 of 3

(4) Section 3.25 applies as if anything constructed as mentioned in this clause were land owned by the person who constructed it an occupied by the persons entitled to use it.

(5) Regulations may require anything constructed in accordance with regulations to be maintained and may require the person who constructs it to insure against any liability that the local government may incur in connection with its construction, maintenance, or use.”

Regulations 17 refer: -

“17. Private works on, over, or under public places – Sch. 9.1 cl. 8

1. A person who constructs anything on, over, or under a public thoroughfare or other public place that is local government property without first obtaining written permission from the local government commits an offence.

2. A local government may –

(a) Grant permission to construct anything on, over, or under a public thoroughfare or other public place that is local government property; and

(b) Impose conditions in respect of the permission, which may include a condition imposing a charge for any damage to the public thoroughfare or public place resulting from the construction.

3. It is a condition of the permission that the ordinary and reasonable use of the public thoroughfare or public place for the purpose to which it is dedicated is not to be permanently or unreasonably obstructed.

4. A person who fails to comply with a condition of the permission commits an offence.

5. A person who constructs anything in accordance with permission under this section is required to –

(a) Maintain it; and

(b) Obtain from an insurance company approved by the local government an insurance policy, in the joint names of the local government and the person, indemnifying the local government against any claim for damages which may arise in, or out of, its construction, maintenance or use.

6. A person who fails to comply with sub regulation (5) commits an offence.

7. The penalty for an offence under sub regulation (1), (4), or (6) is $1,000.”

Advice from Local Government Insurance Services WA

The Local Government Insurance Services WA has advised that an arrangement has been put in place for the benefit of all council/ratepayers/residents, to cover residents who place their bins on the nature strip and also when mowing nature strips for no reward. The policy does not extend to cover a resident in situations where bollards are placed on the nature strip.

Should death or injury occur resulting from an accident involving nature strip bollards, the Council could then be considered negligent if, after having provided permission to erect bollards

or other protective devices on the nature strip, no checks were made to ensure that the bollards complied or were maintained to council’s satisfaction.

Attachment 2

Page 3 of 3

Although the Act prescribes that the resident is required to obtain an insurance policy that would indemnify the local government against any claim for damages that may arise in or out of its construction, maintenance or use, this may not be watertight if challenged and may be viewed as an attempt to modify responsibilities in terms of Common Law.

The Local Government Insurance Services WA state:

“As owners of the nature strip (verge), the City in most instances would carry the primary ‘Duty of Care’ which requires Council to take ‘reasonable care’ to avoid acts or omissions that could cause loss, damage and/or injury to another; a third party.”

Legal advice from Woodhouse Legal

The advice received substantiates previous advice that the City has a duty of care with respect to roads, nature strip and nature strip treatments. It further states that should the City have an indemnification clause incorporated into a local law, it would be unwise for the City to rely on such a clause.

The City’s Local Government and Public Property Local Law 1999, Section 50 (a) states:

(a) Indemnify the local government against all or any damage or injury caused to any person or thing including any thoroughfare, pavement, footpath or crossover or any pipe or cable and shall make good at such owner’s or occupier’s expense all such damage cause.”

The legal advice refers to a report to Parliament from the Joint Committee on Delegated Legislation regarding adverse clauses in local laws concerning indemnity for nature strip treatments. The document refers to a construction on a nature strip as opposed to nature strip (verge) treatments such as lawns, gardens or paving, and makes a distinction between the two as they relate to local laws and legislation. As the City’s local law relates only to lawns, gardens or paving, these are not considered constructions and should therefore not be privy to an indemnity clause. The Regulations however allows for an indemnity clause through a policy taken out by the owner on anything “constructed on a nature strip.”

Extract from the sixth report to Parliament: - “In the Committee’s opinion, the general legislative making power in section 3.5 (1) of the Local Government Act 1995 is insufficient to authorise the making of a local law that abrogates the fundamental right to sue a local authority for a cause of action recognised by the common law or statute.

Advice from Department of Local Government and Regional Development

“It is the local government’s responsibility to ensure that standards of safety exist to protect users of the street reserve from harm. The standard of care to be exercised in this context is the standard of care to be expected of a reasonable person which may vary according to circumstances”.

The Department has additionally advised that it is not aware of any local law that provides specifically for the construction of bollards or other protective devices.

CD02-12/09 Proposed Replacement of Plant 96031 - Mitsubishi Rosa (21-24 Seater Bus)

Issue

To consider plant replacement options for asset 96031 (Mitsubishi 21-24 seater bus) to maximise client and administrative customer service and operational efficiencies within the City’s Centre Based Day Care Programs.

Background

In August 2009, Program Services received advice from the Coordinator of Fleet Services that WN32098 (Plant 96031) is included in the 2009/2010 New Capital Purchases. Plant 96031 (18 seater bus plus a hoist) is primarily used to provide transport service for Alexander Heights Centre Based Day Care, which has an average of 97 clients per week.

Alexander Heights Centre Based Day Care is part of the City’s Home and Community Care (HACC) Program, which the City delivers in collaboration with the State and Federal funding bodies. 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. Currently, the City’s HACC program is providing support to over 750 eligible clients.

In 2008/2009, the Department of Health granted the City $276,230 to provide transport service to eligible HACC clients who are attending the City’s Centre Based Day Care (CBDC) centres, as well as those taking part in the group shopping service. The funding is estimated to increase to $287,849 in the current financial year, which is intended to cover the costs of salaries of staff (drivers and bus aides), honorariums for volunteers, and the overall maintenance and operation of relevant vehicles.

The City is currently maintaining a number of motor vehicles specifically used for HACC services. These vehicles were initially purchased as a result of non-recurrent funding from the Department of Health and/or possibly from other external funding sources such as Lotterywest.

Based on the current CBDC operation, there are 4 buses providing transport service to 11 Centre Based Day Care (CBDC) programs that operate at Alexander Heights, Wanneroo, Quinns Rocks, Merriwa and Girrawheen. The service includes picking up and returning clients from their homes to the centres and/or transporting clients during outings. These buses are as follows: -

· WN32098 (Plant No. 96031) - Mitsubishi Rosa – 18-Seater with a wheelchair lift

· WN32642 (Plant No. 96063) - Mitsubishi Rosa – 18-Seater with a wheelchair lift

· WN32925 (Plant No. 95330) - Toyota Hi Ace Commuter Bus – 12-Seater

· WN32519 (Plant No. 95377) - Toyota Hi Ace Commuter Bus – 12-Seater

In terms of the licences required to operate the abovementioned vehicles, according to the Department of Transport of Western Australia: -

· A motor vehicle with a gross vehicle mass not great than 4.5 tonnes and constructed or equipped to seat no more than 12 adults (including the driver) can be operated by a driver with a C class driver’s licence.

· A motor vehicle that seats more than 12 adults (including the driver) and has a gross vehicle mass greater than 4.5tonnes but not greater than 8 tonnes requires a driver with LR class licence.

· A motor vehicle that has 2 axles and a gross vehicle mass greater than 8 tonnes requires a driver with MR class licence.

Detail

Historically, the City’s HACC program had a number of CBDC staff that were qualified to drive light rigid vehicles such as Plant 96031. However, due to a number of factors (e.g. resignations, establishment of other CBDC centres, and particularly labour shortage during recent times), Alexander Heights CBDC has been left with only 1 regular staff with a LR class driver’s licence. In spite of the City’s endeavour to promote and encourage staff to obtain the LR class licence, the number has not increased resulting in a constant challenge to find suitable replacement staff when the only qualified driver takes time off work due to sickness, holiday, etc.

In addition to the above, the CBDC program is also faced with a limited supply of vehicles as a result of the City’s continuing growth and increasing service demand from the community. In spite of the recent funding received from the Department of Health to purchase one additional bus (Plant 95330) for the City’s CBDC program, there are still only 2 buses providing transport service to supposedly 7 programs operating from Alexander Heights, Wanneroo and Girrawheen Centre Based Day Care centres.

The shortage of CBDC buses results in the City’s HACC program relying on the Community Transport Service (CTS) to supplement the vehicle requirements, hence, impacting on the availability of CTS vehicles for other community use. Based on the first quarter of the current financial year, CBDC used the CTS 7-seater bus (with a hoist) 61 times out of 66 working days (Monday to Friday). The costs for using this bus, however, are being charged to the Centre Based Day Care by the Community Transport Service at full recovery rate.

Consultation

A business case was submitted to the Fleet Steering Committee in October 2009 in relation to this matter and the recommendation contained therein was supported by the Executive Management Team at its meeting on 28 October 2009.

Comment

In view of the above circumstances, the City’s HACC program is recommending the replacement of Plant 96031 with 2 smaller buses (up to 12-seater) that can be operated by a driver with a C class driver’s licence. At least one of the two buses is to be fitted with a hoist to accommodate wheelchair ambulated clients.

The recommendation is based on the following reasons: -

· The majority, if not all, of the current CBDC staff have C class driver’s licences which is a requirement under their current position descriptions. This provides a bigger pool of drivers capable of driving the proposed replacement vehicles.

· Increased customer service and administrative efficiencies resulting from running two smaller buses.

· Improved client comfort (less time spent on buses in transit routes).

· Provides the opportunity to manage the increasing demand for vehicles for CBDC programs. Also increases the pool of buses for broader use.

· The capacity for the increased operational expenses to be alleviated through funding support for the program.

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.

2.5 Improve transport options and connections.”

Policy Implications

Nil

Financial Implications

Tabled below are the possible options and the associated costs for the replacement of Plant 96031.

Expense Type

First Option:

Mitsubishi Rosa (21-24 Seater)

Second Option:

2 x Toyota (11-14 Seater)

Purchase Cost (Capital)

$125,000.00

$100,000.00

Operating Costs

$25,601.40

$51,202.80

Based on the information presented above, it is less expensive to purchase two smaller buses in lieu of a 24-seater bus (approximately $25,000) but the operating costs for the second option is double the first option (an increase of approximately $25,000 per annum).

In the first year of operation, the increase in operating costs will be covered by the savings made from the initial capital purchase costs. Thereafter, this increase in operating costs is able to be accommodated from funding levels - based on the draft 2008/2009 acquittal, the HACC transport service shows a surplus of $111,000.

Issue

To consider a review of the 2009/10 Audit Plan.

Background

At its Ordinary Meeting held on Tuesday, 3 June 2008, Council adopted the Three Year Audit Plan 2008-2011 (GS02-06/08). The City’s previous Internal Auditors, Stamfords Advisors and Consultants Pty Ltd developed this Plan in partnership with the City, following the preparation of a Risk Assessment profile.

The Plan provided for an average 930 audit hours each year commencing 2008/09 and concluding 20010/11. This Plan formed the basis for the tender and subsequent contract with the successful tenderer and current Internal Auditors, 2020 Global.

Detail

The Audit Plan for 2009/10 lists the following audits to be undertaken:-

Subject	Hours
Accounts Payable	100
Reserve Funds	50
Investments/Financial Viability	50
Human Resources (include Occupational Safety and Health)	100
Business Continuity/Disaster Recovery	50
Corporate Governance & Performance	200
Rangers & Library Services	50
Management of Building & Development Applications	100
Infrastructure Maintenance	100
Preparation & Attendance – EMT	40
Six (6) monthly follow-up	80
Total	920

In addition the following four audits are outstanding from 2008/09:

Subject	Hours
Asset Management	100
Emergency Management	50
Optimisation of Council Facilities	50
Capital Works	100
Total	300

There are two factors currently having a significant impact on the organisation that could influence the validity and effectiveness of the current Audit Plan:

1. Organisational Restructure

A new organisation structure was implemented on 1 July 2009 and is based on four ‘pillars’ and five directorates created:

· Creating the community Community Development Directorate

· Maintaining the community Infrastructure Directorate

· Engaging the community Community Development Directorate

· Running of the organisation Corporate and Strategic Performance Directorate

· Delivering the businesses of the City City Businesses Directorate

The restructure involves alignment of like activities and has required significant transfer of responsibility across the organisation. Consequently, this has required a review of a range of procedures and business processes to ensure the activities are effectively and efficiently embedded. This process is ongoing and is also linked to the City’s enterprise business system, which is currently being upgraded.

One significant element of the restructure is the creation of the Information and Business Improvement Unit within Corporate Strategy and Performance directorate. This Unit is responsible for not only managing the information and technology systems supporting the City’s corporate activities, but also the implementation of a continuous improvement framework that will progressively (subject to priorities) assist the organisation to optimise its systems and business processes to deliver improved services and efficiencies.

2. Single Business Platform

This project involves the upgrade of the City’s enterprise business system, delivering financial and property related functions from a single platform and integration of additional modules to manage business processes, such as Asset and Infrastructure Management (AIM), Customer Request Management (CRM), Fleet and On-Line Applications. In addition, this project also encompasses the implementation and integration of a new electronic document management system.

These systems are utilised across all aspects of the City’s operations and therefore represent a major implementation project, which has the potential to deliver significant business improvements. However, due to the scale of the project, the implementation will be phased over the balance of the financial year, with further business improvements through review of workflows being progressively introduced.

Comment

The organisation restructure and single platform project are having a significant impact on the organisation’s resources and the underlying business processes. Undertaking the full audit plan as currently detailed may be ineffective, as the subject of the audit could be in the process of being reengineered and/or new workflows being established within the upgraded system.

This is further reinforced in a review of the Internal Audit Log, which highlights six (6) actions being dependent on the single business platform being implemented.

In addition, given the findings of the Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) audits, it is recognised that extra resources need to be allocated to improving this area of performance, together with the establishment of an overall Risk Management Framework.

Accordingly, it is proposed to only undertake those audits that are considered highest risk and will not be significantly impacted by changes to workflows and business processes brought about by the single platform project. These audits in order of priority are:

Subject	Scheduled Hours	Proposed Hours
Infrastructure Maintenance	100	200
Investments	50	50
Human Resources (excluding OSH)	100	50
Reserves	50	50
Preparation & Attendance – EMT	40	20
Quarterly follow-up	80	80
Total	420	450

The savings from the Internal Audit budget estimated at $70,000 will then be available to redirect towards providing the necessary funding and resources to achieve a positive OSH outcome in line with the management recommendations in the OSH Audits.

As OSH is currently the most significant risk issue facing the City, it is believed appropriate to focus the organisation’s resources on reducing this risk.

Further, it is also recommended that the opportunity be taken to undertake a review into the City’s Internal Audit activity. This should include going back to first principles and identifying the intent of internal audit, the various roles of all stakeholders and lines of communication between each (Audit Committee, CEO, Auditors) and types of risk assessments that will guide the development of internal audit plans. Whilst the Western Australian Department of Local Government has released guidelines dealing with the Internal Audit function, they are relatively brief and simplistic. The NSW Department has released a more comprehensive guidance paper, taking an enterprise risk management approach, that advocates the adoption of an Internal Audit Charter. This approach is considered reflective of the needs of a City the size and complexity of the City of Wanneroo. This Charter will be addressed by separate report.

Financial Implications

The 2009/10 Operating Budget has a $120,000 provision for Internal Audits. In accordance with the recommendations of this report, it is proposed that a modified audit plan will release approximately $70,000 to be reallocated to provide additional funding towards the City’s OSH program. Additionally, our Brokers (LGIS) have paid an amount of $35,000 to us for use in the OSH area. A further $35,000 will also be available later this financial year. This combines to a total of $140,000 additional to the existing budget for use as required to accelerate our OSH program.

Issue

To consider the Financial Activity Statements for the period ended 31 October 2009.

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 2009/2010 Annual Budget. This format separates Revenue and Expenses from Other Revenue and Expenses and provides improved disclosure of City’s underlying Operating Result.

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

In addition to the above, Regulation 34(5) of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations 1996 requires a local government to adopt a percentage or value, calculated in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, to be used in statements of financial activity for reporting material variances. For the 2009/2010 financial year Council has adopted 10% for the reporting of variances, which is in line with previous years.

Detail

Financial Activity Statement and year to date financial performances of the City are detailed in the Attachments 1, 2, 3 and 4.

Consultation

Comments

The following comments are provided on the Financial Activity Statement for the period ended 31 October 2009:-

Income Statement (Refer to Attachment 1)

Net Result $ million

Year to Date Actual 54.196

Year to Date Budget 53.531

Year to Date Variance 0.664 (+1%)

Full Year Adopted Budget 13.331

Full Year Revised Budget 13.331

The following information is provided on key aspects of the year to date financial results: -

Revenues $ million

Year to Date Actual 81.707

Year to Date Budget 85.323

Year to Date Variance -3.616 (-4%)

Full Year Adopted Budget 110.341

Full Year Revised Budget 110.341

Rates

The City’s annual Rating Income represents 66.6% of the operational income for the City and has been raised through the accounts in August. The total amount initially raised is $71.802 million, with a budget of $1.549 million in Interim Rates estimated to be received throughout the year. Rates levied are inclusive of the Domestic Rubbish Charge ($290) for Residential Improved properties.

Operating Grants, Subsidies and Contributions

Under the Operating Grants, Subsidies and Contributions area $0.914 million has been receipted to the end of October, representing a -69% (-$2.061 million) variance. This is mainly due to the first quarterly instalment from the Grants Commission, in the amount of $1.076 million, being received in June instead of July as budgeted, which will be amended during the mid-year review. $1.150 million of recently received grant funding from the Department of Health and Community Care will be recorded in November.

Fees and Charges

With $6.195 million received year to date a –22% variance is shown, due mainly to timing differences and seasonal demand of services.

Other Revenue

Year to date actual amounts to $0.996 million, which is –9% (-$0.104 million) below budget. This is mainly due to timing difference particularly in regards to the invoicing of external parties.

Expenses $ million

Year to Date Actual -32.822

Year to Date Budget -37.320

Year to Date Variance 4.498 (+12%)

Full Year Adopted Budget -113.596

Full Year Revised Budget -113.596

Employee Costs

Employee Costs, which represents approximately 42% of the full year budgeted expenses, are below budget by $1.507 million (+10%) as at October month end. The main factors effecting this favourable variance are the pay cycle and vacancies within some areas. It is expected that over the course of the financial year this variance will be minimal.

Materials and Contracts

Materials and Contracts costs are well under the year to date budget estimates to the value of $2.556 million (+22%). At this early stage of the year expenditures in this area are generally slow to begin with but is still estimated to meet its targets by year-end.

Utility Charges (electricity, gas, water etc)

Utilities are currently under budget to the value of $0.562 million (+48%), which is primarily due to the timing of the payments.

Insurance

As at October month-end Insurance expenses exceed budget by 12% ($0.108 million), which is due to the annual premiums now being fully paid and slightly higher than expected. A budget reallocation will be sought at the mid-year budget review.

Other Revenue and Expenses $ million

(Excluding Contributions of Physical Assets)

Year to Date Actual 5.311

Year to Date Budget -1.138

Year to Date Variance 6.449 (+567%)

Full Year Adopted Budget -3.415

Full Year Revised Budget -3.445

Town Planning Schemes (TPS)

With Town Planning Schemes (TPS), it is difficult to forecast when and how much contribution will be received throughout the year. By 31 October, the amount received by the City including interest earned on TPS reserves was $1.592 million, which is 75% below budget.

At this early stage of the year expenses to the value of $0.246 million have been recorded year to date, which is 98% below budget.

Contributions of Physical Assets $ million

Year to Date Actual 0.000

Year to Date Budget 6.667

Year to Date Variance -6.667 (-100%)

Full Year Adopted Budget 20.000

Full Year Revised Budget 20.000

With regard to Physical Assets Contributed by Developers, the City has not recognised any values to October month end. It is expected for these amounts to be advised and accordingly accounted for towards the end of the financial year.

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 October 2009, the City holds an investment portfolio (cash and cash equivalents) of $174,083,624. The current yield for the portfolio is 5.01% annualised while benchmark return reflects 3.05% (UBS Warburg AUD Bank Bill Index).

The City purchased numerous government guaranteed bonds amounting to $55.1 million early this year. These investments provide a steady fixed income stream for the coming five (5) years with a 4.78% average yield. Capital is fully guaranteed by the Commonwealth without the requirement of paying an extra levy.

No.	EWSP Proposal	Comment
	Major Issues
1.	That the EWSP use the same ‘planning horizon’ as Directions 2031 i.e. 2031.	The City’s submissions on Directions 2031 and the draft Gnangara Sustainability Strategy (GSS) argued that these plans needed to look well beyond the next 20 years and be more visionary. The submissions took such a long term approach, leading to proposals for significant eastern urban expansion, so far east as Ellenbrook, served by several new railway lines. (Attachment 5 shows the City’s plan, which was included in its submission on Directions 2031). Short-term, incremental planning tends not to allow such major infrastructure projects to be properly considered. The result is development of areas in a manner that makes no provision for such future possibilities, such that in the longer term, should the need for the infrastructure be recognised, it is either impractical or extremely costly and disruptive to provide. The relevant State agencies will presumably be considering the City’s submissions on this matter in the course of finalising Directions 2031 and the GSS. Prior to this matter being decided upon in the context of those studies, the longer term proposals in those submissions relevant to this area are again advocated.
2.	That, notwithstanding the 2031 planning horizon for this plan, the East Wanneroo area be planned on the basis of being the long term urban ‘edge’ to this part of the metropolitan urban area.	The City’s submissions on Directions 2031 and the draft GSS presented reasons why urban growth should extend eastward to Ellenbrook. Those reasons are still considered valid. Note that the City’s submissions were focussing on long term planning, and that in the shorter term, parts of East Wanneroo could still accommodate horticulture, prior to being able to be replaced by new horticultural areas in Carrabooda.

3.	Inclusion of Carnabys Black Cockatoo foraging habitat and graceful sun moth habitat in proposed urban zoned areas, without resolution or consideration of obligations for protection of foraging habitat under the Environmental Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999.	A significant portion of the remaining native vegetation within the structure plan area is likely foraging habitat for Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo, which is listed as endangered under the Commonwealth Environmental Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999, making it a matter of national environmental significance. The prioritisation of natural assets for protection, however, does not appear to recognise this; with local and regional assets not providing foraging habitat for the species being formally protected and limited attention to Federal obligations for protection of a threatened species. Proposed retention of environmental attributes includes: Areas currently designated as “Bush Forever”, currently a non-statutory tool to protect only 10 percent of natural areas across the Perth Metropolitan Region, are generally identified as Parks and Recreation. This predominantly includes wetlands, of regional (not national) significance, which do not form foraging habitat for Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo. Only a few pockets of Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo foraging habitat is retained as Parks and Recreation. The Structure Plan identifies “priority local natural areas” (336 hectares) and includes policy statements that these should be protected as part of local structure planning. However, a significant portion of “priority local natural areas” includes wetland vegetation, not Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo foraging habitat. 422 hectares of “other” native vegetation, assumed to not be in as good condition as the above, is included within various zones of the structure plan with no effective policy statements regarding its protection. It is noted that the 422 hectares is likely Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo foraging habitat; the nature of Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo foraging behaviour is that vegetation in less than good condition still provides significant foraging habitat (vegetation condition is based greatly on understorey species, however it is the overstorey species that provide foraging habitat). Whilst not all the 422 hectares of “other” native vegetation falls within the urban depicted land within the structure plan, a significant portion does. The potential urban zoning of foraging habitat for a Federally listed endangered species must be further debated to determine whether such action is appropriate. It is noted that wetlands may provide a water source for Carnaby’s, however this submission recognises that declining foraging and breeding habitat, defined as critical habitat by the Significant Impact guidelines 1.1 – Matters of National Environmental Significant (Department of the Environment and Heritage, 2006), are primary contributors to the decline of Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo. The structure plan appears to be based on a premise that removal of Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo foraging habitat can be negotiated with the Federal Government under the EPBC Act and offset by revegetation/purchase elsewhere. This would give a level of false certainty to landholders; no such negotiation /agreement has been undertaken/reached and the position of the Federal Government is that vegetation should be retained rather than offset. Further, when considering the extent of existing approved development and the impact on the Cockatoo, the appropriateness of zoning the remaining critical habitat in 2009 should be properly considered by the State Government in terms of social and environmental responsibility. The significant revegetation/purchase required to offset approved urban and industrial development in the City, and also the removal of pine plantations as part of the Gnangara Sustainability Strategy, would significantly limit the availability of any offset options for the removal of habitat in East Wanneroo. Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo is in decline based on existing habitat availability. Attachment 6 shows the estimated current Carnaby’s Cockatoo habitat derived from aerial photographs and vegetation mapping. Attachment 7 shows an estimate of the habitat that would remain following implementation of approved structure plans and the recommendations of the Gnangara Sustainability Strategy to remove the pine plantations. This shows that a significant area of foraging habitat would be lost. Any further loss of foraging habitat in the area could be easily considered to be of too high a risk to the species. As such, the structure plan should not assume that any loss of Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo foraging habitat would be entertained by the Federal Government, and these areas should be either removed from the urban zone, or identified as subject to further planning as they cannot at this point in time be, in any way, considered “appropriate for development” (page 35). Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo foraging habitat should be clearly mapped as a constraint in the East Wanneroo area, so that landholders are aware that there is no presumption that their land may be developed for urban development. An alternative, and more socially and environmentally responsible, option would be to expand the urban zone into the State Forest areas, where plantations will be removed as part of the GSS. Proceeds from development could be utilized by the State to purchase and protect landholdings with Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo foraging habitat, as those landholders should be financially recognized and compensated for retaining the last private pockets of Carnaby’s foraging habitat in the region. Those areas of Carnaby’s foraging habitat that have been developed for Special Rural uses should remain as such; existing controls under the City’s District Planning Scheme provide protection of native vegetation.
4.	Identification of Ecological Linkages without indication of their form or function.	Ecological linkages are depicted on the structure plan map, and a number of policy principles included to provide for their identification and protection. However, the form of the linkages is not provided. Some research has indicated that ecological linkages should be 500 metre vegetated corridors. Other information suggests that “stepping stones” are appropriate. If the structure plan is going to introduce ecological linkages, then the expected form of them across the various zones of the plan must also be provided. The structure plan currently defers the responsibility to determine the form and financial implications of ecological linkages to local government. This is not supported, as without guidance within the structure plan, the City cannot determine if the linkages are to be 500 metre corridors, which may not be appropriate within urban areas, or urban greenlinks that include native landscaping in streetscapes and open space areas located along them, which provide limited ecological function.
5.	Identification of urban and rural zones, not supported by a regional water management strategy.	The structure plan is not supported by a regional water management strategy, as required by current State policy, and does not recognise the two key water constraints in the region: groundwater availability for active open space, and protection of wetland ecological water requirements. Water balance modelling is needed to ensure the protection of wetlands, and the provision of useable active open space for the community; the structure plan does not recognise these key issues. There is opportunity for these issues to be addressed by a District Water Management Strategy undertaken to inform proposed MRS amendments. Rezoning must not be pursued until such strategies are complete, to undertake a district water balance to demonstrate whether there will be sufficient groundwater availability to support urban development, and to provide robust information on which the Department of Water can base or revise groundwater allocations. These water management strategies also need to properly address acid sulphate soils and related issues which affect much of the study area.
6.	That following finalisation of the EWSP and studies to determine detailed alignments and reserve requirements for regional roads and Parks and Recreation reserves, an amendment be initiated to the Metropolitan Region Scheme (MRS) to rezone land to Urban Deferred, and to reserve the regional road and Parks and Recreation areas.	An MRS Amendment to rezone land to Urban Deferred should not be initiated until all required studies have been completed to confirm that Urban Deferred zoning is indeed appropriate. This particularly relates to: · Resolution of the Carnabys Cockatoo habitat issue referred to in 1. above. (It should not be assumed that an offsets approach will be possible, or that all vegetation requiring protection will be able to be protected within an Urban zone). · Determination of exactly how proposed Priority Local Natural Areas and ecological linkages areas to be protected. · Protection of regional and district recreation open space areas. · Preparation of a regional water management strategy.
7.	That a District Structure Plan not be required.	The planning process endorsed by Council in December 2007 included preparation of a District Structure Plan (DSP). Provided that the final EWSP includes a DSP – level of detail as to provide adequate guidance for subsequent preparation of Local Structure Plans (LSP), then a DSP may not be required. However, the draft EWSP is considered to be lacking in some areas, particularly planning for: · Activity Centres. It does not distinguish between Neighbourhood and Local Centres (Local Centres should not be shown at this level of planning). Retail modelling is required to better guide the sizes of the proposed centres. (Also note that Figure 13 appears to use a district centre symbol for the Wanneroo Regional Centre). · Employment. While the ‘Urban’ areas are proposed to also include light/service industrial areas, these used to be shown on the plan. · Community facilities and services, particularly regional/district recreation areas. These matters must be addressed by the Department of Planning at this stage so that the City is not left to address them at subsequent planning stages, at significant cost and resource. In general, the implementation process as a whole needs to be much more carefully considered, and a detailed program prepared which sets out clearly what is required to be done, by who and by whom.
8.	That a major ‘South Pinjar’ industrial area be developed north of Neaves Road.	Since the release of the draft EWSP, the WAPC has released for public comment the draft “Industrial Land Strategy (ILS) 2009 for Perth and Peel”. While the draft ILS shows the proposed South Pinjar industrial area, it also shows a number of possible new industrial areas which are not included in the draft EWSP (at Jandabup, Gnangara and a Wangara extension). While the draft EWSP identifies the Jandabup site as ‘Rural’ and ‘employment investigation area’, it infers that it is not intended as an industrial area in the same way that the draft ILS does. There is a need for better consistency and alignment between these two WAPC studies. Such inconsistency causes considerable confusion for the community.
	Detailed Comments
1.	Executive Summary	Page vii Paragraph 7 states “Abstraction to support the existing pine plantation and horticultural activities and are the main causes for declining groundwater levels”. The trend of declining ground water levels corresponds closely with abstraction for public water supply. Whilst the pine plantations and horticulture also contribute, the impact of abstraction for public supply, which now threatens the viability of horticulture and wetlands, should be acknowledged.
2.	Executive Summary	Page vii, paragraph 9 states “Addressing the various environmental concerns in a spatial plan has been an important driver for the formulation of the structure plan.” This is a false statement, as a strategic assessment for Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo habitat has not been undertaken, and the significant concern of habitat loss has not been in any way addressed.
3.	1.1 Planning Context	Page 1, paragraph 5, dot point 2 states “detailed study on priority vegetation areas for protection and ecological linkages; particularly in relation to habitat for the endangered Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo, and/or potential offsets if necessary” presupposes that removal of habitat and offsets are appropriate. Such a comment cannot be made in the absence of a strategic assessment. See above comments regarding Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo habitat.
4.	1.4 Background	Page 5, paragraph 7: refers to “increasing dependence on the mound by the Water Corporation”. The Corporation’s ‘Water Forever’ strategy involves a decreasing dependence on the mound.
5.	Figure 4	Some areas shown as ‘market garden’ are not market gardens e.g. some are turf farms. The former Benara nursery site in Wanneroo is shown as ‘vineyard’, however it is now vacant land.
6.	2.1 Settlement Patterns	Page 9, paragraph 2 states: “As the expansion of East Wanneroo will be constrained indefinitely by the adjacent State Forest and water protection control area, it will always be on the periphery of the metropolitan area …”. Disagree: those constraints need not indefinitely apply, and the City’s submissions on Directions 2031 and the draft GSS indicate why they should not apply.
7.	2.1 Settlement Patterns	Page 9, paragraph 6: suggests that the draft EWSP is considering housing, in addition to employment generating uses, for the western part of the State Forest area. However, this draft proposes this area as ‘rural’ (Figure 11) and ‘investigation for employment uses’ (Figures 11 and 13).
9.	2.2.1 Gnangara Groundwater Mound	Page 11, paragraph 3. Should recognise water users in addition to public supply and horticulture, for example abstraction to provide active public open space which is threatened by abstraction for other uses.
10.	2.2.2 Federally Listed Endangered Species	Page 11. This section does not properly recognise the areas of the structure plan that provide critical habitat to the species. Paragraph 2 states “It is also likely that clearing habitat of Carnaby’s habitat will require an offsets package to be developed” presupposes that any clearing of threatened species is appropriate. The structure plan should clearly articulate the State’s position on whether it considers that knowingly zoning Federally endangered species critical habitat for urban development is appropriate or not. Paragraph 3 states “BushForever areas and local natural areas are therefore important for the ongoing survival of Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo”. BushForever and local natural areas protect a significantly greater amount of wetland vegetation (which does not form Carnaby’s foraging habitat) rather than Banksia woodlands (which do). This statement could be considered false, as a significant area of Carnaby’s habitat is not protected within such areas.
11.	2.2.3 Natural Areas	The effort to identify and provide for protection of Bush Forever sites and local natural areas is commendable. However, it would appear that the structure plan places more priority to protection of local and regional environmental assets than matters of national environmental significance (see discussion above regarding Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo). Page 13, paragraph 4 specifically states that native vegetation (Carnaby’s habitat) outside BushForever and local natural areas, including non-Carnaby’s habitat wetlands, are “probably of lower priority for protection”.
12.	2.2.4 Wetlands	Page 13, paragraph 2 of 2.2.4: refers to conservation category wetlands and wetlands of similar environmental value being ceded free of cost to the Crown. Where properties are relatively small and a wetland occupies a substantial portion of a property, it would be unreasonable and unfair to expect the wetland area to be ceded free of cost. Fair compensation should be provided for. (The City is currently considering a proposed Local Planning Policy on wetlands which would provide that conservation category wetlands be acquired through developer contributions, at a per hectare value which is 20%. That of the per hectare value of unencumbered, developable land). If it is intended that some of these wetland areas be included as part of the normal public open space (POS) provision, care will be needed that the POS is also still able to adequately provide for recreation and the other purposes required of POS.
13.	2.2.4 Wetlands	Page 13, paragraph 3 of 2.2.4: refers to some wetlands possibly not currently being assigned into the appropriate management category. This should be made clear in Figure 8.
14.	2.2.4 Wetlands	Page 13, paragraph 4 of 2.2.4: refers to appropriate reservation of important wetland areas occurring at local structure planning stage. Some important wetlands might be most appropriately protected through reservation under the MRS (similar to how some wetlands are already protected in this way). This matter needs to be addressed prior to initiation of the MRS rezoning of this area.
15.	2.5.1.1 Metropolitan Region Scheme	Page 19, paragraph 1 states “Amendments to the MRS to allow urban development would only be initiated once the WAPC has been satisfied that any constraints are addressed”. Constraints requiring resolution prior to MRS rezoning should be specified, and include: Confirmation of strategic assessment of Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo impacts under the EPBC Act, if it is determined that any removal is appropriate at all Confirmation that sufficient groundwater shall be available to irrigate active open space requirements The statement also appears very much at odds with the statement on page 37 (paragraph 4) which states “The Urban demarcated land will not be subject to the strategic studies performed by the State before rezoning of this land to Urban or Urban Deferred could commence, apart from: the access strategy and intersection treatment as indicated on Figure 13: Implementation Guide for the East Wanneroo Structure Plan regional road reserve demarcation and commitments to public use land (high schools, etc).”
16.	2.5.2.1 Directions 2031	Page 19: does not acknowledge that the Directions 2031 report released earlier this year was a draft, and the final Directions 2031, and how it may respond to the submissions made on the draft, is still unknown.
17.	2.5.2.3 Draft Gnangara Sustainability Strategy	Paragraph 3 (page 21) states “The GSS favours additional urban land being sourced from areas already disturbed, rather than clearing natural vegetation.” The structure plan is at odds with this objective. Disturbed areas, and cleared pine plantation, should be provided as urban land, rather than Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo habitat. This paragraph also refers to the need to reduce abstraction. Urban use rather than agriculture uses for the land to the east would support reduction in abstraction.
18.	3.2 Objectives – 3.2.1 Settlement Patterns	Dot point 2 refers to minimising urban sprawl. Treating East Wanneroo as the long term ‘edge’ of the metropolitan urban area means that additional future urban growth needs to occur in areas which are much further away from the main part of the city (as compared to East Wanneroo), and therefore promotes urban sprawl.
19.	3.2 Objectives – 3.2.1 Settlement Patterns	Needs to include an objective relating to planning for community facilities and services, especially those of a regional or district scale. In the case of regional recreation facilities, these may require land to be reserved for Parks and Recreation on the MRS.
20.	3.2 Objectives – 3.2.2 Ecological systems	Dot point 1 refers to the need for land uses and development that ‘minimises water use, maximises recharge, and avoids groundwater contamination’. Urban uses to the east instead of agricultural uses would better achieve this objective.
21.	3.2 Objectives – 3.2.2 Ecological Systems	Dot point 6 provides the objective “Ensure appropriate investigation of environmental issues is undertaken and information is provided at each stage of the planning process to assist management of groundwater, wetlands, acid sulphate soils, natural vegetation and endangered species.” This objective has not been met by the structure plan. Robust consideration of impacts on Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo and development of a regional water management strategy are key gaps in the supporting information. No certainty regarding land use can be provided without these analyses.
22.	Objectives – 3.2.3 Movement and Access	Dot point 5 refers to identification of public transport routes and catchments, and dot point 7 refers to establishing transport mode share targets. The draft does not address these objectives.
23.	Figure 11	Greenvale Place, Mariginiup should not be shown as an Other Regional Road.
24.	Figure 11	Dundebar Road should be shown as an Other Regional Road, rather than a District Road, given its importance in the regional road network, including its linkage from Franklin Road to Wanneroo Regional Centre.
25.	Figure 11	Elliot Road, between Wanneroo Road and Lenore Road, is shown as an Other Regional Road, and 2.3 of the draft refers to the ARRB consultant’s traffic report recommending that this length of road be upgraded. This part of Elliot Road has a road reserve width of only 30 metres, with houses existing along it at normal residential setbacks. Any proposals for upgrading of this road which involve widening of the road reserve would therefore be likely to be very disruptive for properties along this road.
26.	4.0 Structure Plan	Page 27, paragraph 4: This suggests that protection of natural vegetation areas will occur through use of Parks and Recreation reserves, POS, and Bush Forever areas. There is likely to be a substantial amount of natural vegetation needing to be protected, especially considering the extent of the Priority Local Natural Areas, which are not currently envisaged for Parks and Recreation reservation or Bush Forever sites, and are unable to be included with the 10% POS allocation. This reinforces the need for the implementation mechanisms to be fully considered now, as it may be that some of this natural vegetation may need to be included in additional Parks and Recreation reserves.
27.	4.2.1 Parks and Recreation	Page 29, paragraph 1: Refers to land of regional significance for ecological, recreation and landscape purposes being nominated as Parks and Recreation. The draft does not nominate such land for recreation purposes on Figures 11 and 13. Figure 13 shows increases to the Parks and Recreation reserves around a number of the wetlands. The basis for those proposed extensions should be provided (ie how the new reserve boundaries have been delineated).
28.	Figure 12	This shows “70m proposed primary regional roads buffer” and “50m proposed other regional roads buffer”, however the draft does not explain exactly what these are.
29.	Figure 12	This shows “200m lake buffer”, but does not explain exactly what this means. If it is intended to protect land from urban development, then it should be included as Parks and Recreation reserve, and not protected through local open space provision.
30.	4.3 Movement and Access	· If Dundebar Road is to be a busway, need to consider what facilities will need to be incorporated in the Wanneroo Regional Centre. · If Dundebar Road is to be an Activity Corridor, need to consider the road reserve width required for this. · The proposed Lenore/Franklin Road Activity Corridor/Busway will require integrated pedestrian facilities and improved public transport to make it work. · Need to consider if bus stops will require increased road reserve width. · Need traffic modelling to show predicted traffic volumes. · Need to consider how dedicated bus lanes will be incorporated in Ocean Reef Road designs. · Need to ensure that the Other Regional Road definition study and Public Transport Plan are carried out quickly so that findings can be incorporated in its planning for existing infrastructure. · The ARRB 2008 Regional Transportation Study proposed a network of roads which included additional road links to those shown on Figure 13. Needs to be clarified if those additional road links are indeed required, and if so, what mechanisms will be used to ensure they are provided e.g. perhaps they should be included in the EWSP.
31.	4.3.1 Primary Regional Roads	Page 31, paragraph 3 of 4.3.1: Proposes 2 options for the northern extension of the proposed north-south primary road: either linking into Flynn Drive, or into Pinjar/Spence Road. It really needs to link into both of those roads, noting that the latter option in turn links further north into Old Yanchep Road.
32.	4.3.2 Other Regional Roads and District Roads	Page 33, paragraph 3 of 4.3.2: Refers to a proposed District Open Space, which is not shown on Figures 11 or 13.
33.	4.3.3 Public Transport	Page 33: This proposes moving future public transport users to the west, to use the northern suburbs railway line, which is already under peak hour pressure and which is forecast to grow with continued population growth to the north.
34.	5.1 Approach	Paragraph 2: States “The area indicated as Urban is deemed appropriate for development.” This conclusion cannot be drawn. See above discussion regarding Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo. The rest of this section is generally convoluted, confused and misleading.
35.	5.1 Approved	Page 35: Unclear if the proposed Priority Local Natural Areas are intended to be included in the proposed Urban Deferred Zoning. This needs clarifying. They probably should not be.
36.	5.0 Implementation	Page 37: Proposes that actions to be taken by the City such as preparation of LSP and developer contribution arrangements be undertaken as a parallel process to the finalising of the EWSP and amendment of the MRS. Such City actions should not be undertaken until after the MRS amendment has been successfully completed. Significant time and resources could otherwise be wasted if the MRS amendment is not successfully completed.
37.	5.0 Implementation	Page 37: Refers to a local scheme amendment being initiated. It would be preferable for the local scheme amendment to be ‘automatically’ made by the WAPC, upon lifting of deferment. The local scheme has to be amended anyway to accord with the MRS, so there is no point in advertising for submissions etc.
38.	5.2 Settlement Patterns Policy principle: Higher residential densities in strategic locations	The principle of providing higher densities close to centres and along activity corridors is supported. However, the principle should better consider “density extremes” – the location of those higher density areas and centres away from sensitive environmental attributes, and the provision of lower density in sensitive areas to retain natural landform and vegetation. Also, the proposal for a minimum residential density of 15 dwellings per gross hectare around neighbourhood centres needs further consideration, as this is the proposed average density over the whole urban area.
39.	5.2.2 Existing Land Use Rights	Page 38, paragraph 2: Refers to 1 km buffer around the Crown mushroom farm, however, Figure 13 only shows a 500m buffer.
40.	5.2.4 Sport, Recreation and Open Space	Page 39: Proposes that sites for district open space facilities be determined prior to approval of LSP’s. This needs to be determined now. If a development contribution approach similar to the existing East Wanneroo Urban ‘cells’ is proposed, then such an approach may not facilitate provision of district open spaces of about 10ha. Therefore, alternative ways of doing this may need to be considered now.
41.	5.2.7 Wastewater	Page 40: Refers to this area being served by the new wastewater treatment plant at Alkimos. However, recently released ‘Water Forever’ proposes that it may be served by a future Neerabup recycling plant.
42.	5.2.8 Energy	Page 41: Proposes 8 new substations. These should be shown conceptually on Figure 11.
43.	5.2.8 Energy	Page 41: The transmission line easement needs to be finalised and designed into Lenore/Franklin Road now, unless it is to be on the eastern side of that road.
44.	5.3.1 Gnangara Mound Protection Policy Principle: Gnangara Mound Protection	The policy states that “water-efficient technologies, such as stormwater harvesting will assist in minimising groundwater abstraction for irrigation of public open space”. Such efforts are supported, however the structure plan needs to confirm if groundwater is available to facilitate the development of active open space needs for the community.
45.	5.3.2 through 5.3.6	Whilst the intent of these policy principles is supported, as discussed previously there appears to be greater focus on protecting local and regional environmental assets, compared to those of national significance.
46.	5.3.5 Protecting Ecological Systems – Policy Principle: Determine the financial implications and budget commitments for ecological linkages	The intended form of ecological linkages needs to be explained, if the financial implications are to be determined. See previous discussion regarding ecological linkages.
47.	5.3.7 Urban Water Management Policy Principle: Urban and rural water management	Paragraph 2: States “where a Drainage and Water Management Plan (DWMP) does not exist”. No MRS amendment to rezone should be supported without a District Water Management Strategy, prepared by Department of Water.
48.	Policy Principle: Irrigation Management Plans	The over allocated nature of the Gnangara Mound should require that all proposals to irrigate be supported by an irrigation management plan, not only for those proposals using reclaimed water.
49.	5.5 Economy and Employment Policy Principle: Employment lands investigation area and amended PI Water Protection Area boundary.	Page 45: Refers to “urban and employment generating land use”: Other parts of the draft appear to dismiss the urban option. The Draft is therefore confusing in this respect.
50.	5.5 Economy and Employment Policy Principle: Public Transport connections	Page 45: Also needs to consider the proposed bus terminal at the northern end of Alexander Drive.
51.	5.6 Governance and Legislation: 5.6.3 and 5.6.4	It is premature to include details of what the future developer contribution arrangements might entail in the EWSP. It should simply state that such arrangements shall be put in place, having regard for the relevant State Planning Policies. Notwithstanding the above, the following comments are made on the details which have been included in the draft: · Questionable as to the extent that conservation sites may be able to be subject to developer contributions. Should be noted that this could jeopardise financial viability of developments and extent to which developer contributions can be sought for essential community infrastructure and services. · Contributions for regional roads will be not just in relation to their upgrading, but also to their provision, where they presently do not exist. · Developer contributions to the City will not include utility services extensions. · Primary School sites are not considered for reservation under the local planning scheme until they have actually been acquired by the Education Department. Policy Principle: Infrastructure Contributions: should be clarified that this only relates to areas where these are very large landholdings eg. Parts of Mariginiup.
52	Appendix A	A substantial area of ‘Existing Reserved Land’ is shown around Lake Mariginiup: much more than presently exists.

2. Increased traffic on Adams Road, Dempster Place and Coogee Road.	Adams Road ends in a cul-de-sac north of Lot 51 and does not continue through to Neaves Road. Adams Road and Dempster Place provide access to Lot 51 from Coogee and Neaves Roads. The applicant advises that the average dog stay is 10 days with about 100 vehicles expected to attend the kennels by appointment each week. At peak times the applicant anticipates 20 cars could be at the premises. Adequate space is available for onsite parking.
3. The potential for future subdivision in the area will be prejudiced if kennels do not re-locate.	The Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) recommends a generic buffer of between 500 and 1000 metres between kennels and sensitive land uses. Noise and odour are the main issues with kennels, so residential dwellings will be the main sensitive use in this case. Kennels already exist on Lot 51 and the adjacent Lot 50 to the north, and approximately 24 dwellings are within 500 metres of them. Refer also to Strategic Implications below.
4. Conflict between dogs and horses, when dogs are exercised on bridle paths by inexperienced handlers, and are aggressive towards horses.	Special Rural Zone No 4 surrounds Lake Adams to the west of Lot 51, and was subdivided to provide smaller lots for residential and equestrian purposes. The applicant has advised that as part of the proposed upgrade, it is intended that the dogs will be exercised on site, rather than in public areas, although the City’s Animal Local Law does not preclude the exercising of dogs in public areas.
5. Environmental and health risks from faeces left along road verges and bridle paths by dogs being exercised off site.	A waste management plan will be required for approval when application is made for a kennel licence.
