to I think 900,000 people visit  a

00:10:43.159 --> 00:10:45.759
council event or a facility  over the

00:10:45.840 --> 00:10:48.000
last Financial year and our City's

00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:51.320
hosted more than 240 events in that

00:10:51.399 --> 00:10:53.879
period so it's a significant

00:10:53.960 --> 00:10:56.000
undertaking  we've completed some

00:10:56.080 --> 00:10:59.279
major infrastructure projects as well 

00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:01.879
so obviously the spectacular extension

00:11:01.960 --> 00:11:05.159
of the Fernley aicle track  as well as

00:11:05.240 --> 00:11:09.480
the windale Hub  The windale Hub 

00:11:09.559 --> 00:11:12.000
it's a favorite of everyone's but 

00:11:12.080 --> 00:11:14.559
that Community there in windale has been

00:11:14.639 --> 00:11:16.600
crying out for such a facility for a

00:11:16.679 --> 00:11:19.240
long time and for me personally it was a

00:11:19.320 --> 00:11:22.240
real highlight to open that  you know

00:11:22.320 --> 00:11:25.159

relocated to the new windale Hub just 

00:14:51.279 --> 00:14:53.879
across the city we've actually had the

00:14:53.960 --> 00:14:57.279
bulky was waste transmission to bookable

00:14:57.360 --> 00:15:00.919
curbside service  and that seems to be

00:15:01.000 --> 00:15:03.120
very successful by the end of June it

00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:06.399
started in March we've had 9,000 nearly

00:15:06.480 --> 00:15:10.480
10,000 bookings  we've had a ward

00:15:10.559 --> 00:15:13.399

00:15:13.480 --> 00:15:15.720

3655 attendees at Council festivals and

00:15:26.080 --> 00:15:28.000
events and that's resulted in an

00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:31.919
estimated 71.3 million economic impact

00:15:32.000 --> 00:15:35.000
on our city  and there's much much

00:15:35.080 --> 00:15:37.320
more that's I've just looked at a few of

00:15:37.399 --> 00:15:40.000
the things across the city and  and

00:15:40.080 --> 00:15:41.720
some of the things in East Wood so I

00:15:41.799 --> 00:15:43.799
think you know those of us who were on

00:15:43.879 --> 00:15:46.399
the last Council feel very should feel

00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:48.919
very pleased with  with what's

00:15:49.000 --> 00:15:51.159
happened and  and what we've done and

00:15:51.240 --> 00:15:53.879
what we've achieved and I'm sure that we

00:15:53.960 --> 00:15:56.960
will achieve just as much if not more in

00:15:57.039 --> 00:15:59.519
this term of council so thank you Mr

00:16:08.679 --> 00:16:11.000
term and it was a short term too 2 years

00:16:11.080 --> 00:16:12.799

certainly achieved a lot in that 2 years

00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:27.919
and 9 months  it still blows my mind

00:16:28.000 --> 00:16:29.279

00:16:29.360 --> 00:16:31.600

00:18:44.160 --> 00:18:46.079
absolute Delight has been working with

00:18:46.160 --> 00:18:48.599
the Arts culture and  tourism team

00:18:48.680 --> 00:18:51.000

00:18:51.079 --> 00:18:53.000
revitalizing across our city and what a

00:18:53.079 --> 00:18:56.240
great asset that is for our community 

00:18:56.319 --> 00:18:58.079
our living smart gets bigger and

00:18:58.160 --> 00:19:00.799

weirbridge I just have to say that it's

00:19:08.640 --> 00:19:11.519
amazing and I think  councelor Adam th

00:19:11.599 --> 00:19:13.640
will probably  be cranky that I've

00:19:13.720 --> 00:19:15.799
mentioned it but I'm very happy that I

00:19:15.880 --> 00:19:18.400
drive on that most days and of course

00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:19.799
I'm very much looking forward to the

00:19:19.880 --> 00:19:22.200
abber house revitalization and that we

00:19:22.279 --> 00:19:23.839

just like everybody else but the point

00:20:14.200 --> 00:20:16.599
is that this is as far as a showand tell

00:20:16.680 --> 00:20:18.920
docent a pretty decent one I'd

00:20:19.000 --> 00:20:21.440
encourage everyone to go online and have

00:20:21.519 --> 00:20:24.519
a look because it encapsulates all of

00:20:24.599 --> 00:20:26.240
the things that we worked towards in the

00:20:26.319 --> 00:20:28.920
last term and it sort of highight lights

00:20:29.000 --> 00:20:30.359
the direction we're

00:20:30.440 --> 00:20:33.759
going my list in Northwood won't be as

00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:36.759
long as east and west but I do say that

00:20:36.839 --> 00:20:38.519
some of the projects were very

00:20:38.599 --> 00:20:42.400
significant across the entire city 

00:20:42.480 --> 00:20:44.759
one of the projects of course is the

00:20:44.839 --> 00:20:47.640
Hunter Sports Center which with the

00:20:47.720 --> 00:20:50.160
assistance of state and federal money is

00:20:50.240 --> 00:20:52.839
going to have a once in a-lifetime

00:20:52.920 --> 00:20:55.759
opportunity for our city to improve the

00:20:55.839 --> 00:20:59.359
quality standard international 

00:20:59.440 --> 00:21:04.400
status of sport in our area and   I

00:21:04.480 --> 00:21:05.960
understand a lot of people haven't seen

00:21:06.039 --> 00:21:08.119
it recently we'll get an opportunity to

00:21:08.200 --> 00:21:11.000
do that in the near future and in the

00:21:11.079 --> 00:21:13.799
near future our entire Community will

00:21:13.880 --> 00:21:16.119
benefit from that particularly major

00:21:16.200 --> 00:21:18.799
project I would never complain about

00:21:18.880 --> 00:21:21.799
anybody talking about the weirbridge I

00:21:21.880 --> 00:21:23.359
think it's a wonderful achievement in

00:21:23.440 --> 00:21:26.079
the last term of council and I use it

00:21:26.160 --> 00:21:28.119
regularly as well and I talked to many

00:21:28.200 --> 00:21:30.119
people who use it

00:21:30.200 --> 00:21:33.039
regularly it's making life and

00:21:33.119 --> 00:21:36.519
connectivity for our communities so much

00:21:36.599 --> 00:21:40.279
easier  the Sugar Valley Library

00:21:40.359 --> 00:21:43.480
muse opened during the term but more

00:21:43.559 --> 00:21:46.000
importantly the activities that are now

00:21:46.079 --> 00:21:48.799
able to flow from having that facility

00:21:48.880 --> 00:21:52.160
within our community has broadened the

00:21:52.240 --> 00:21:55.200
experiences of our entire community so

00:21:55.279 --> 00:21:57.160
that's a wonderful achievement in our

00:21:57.240 --> 00:21:59.400
showand tell list

00:21:59.480 --> 00:22:02.559
 the Pearson Street mall I think is

00:22:02.640 --> 00:22:05.640
almost sorted out  it sometimes things

00:22:05.720 --> 00:22:09.000
can be ongoing but it's always worth

00:22:09.079 --> 00:22:11.039
marking the achievements of its

00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:13.799
completion and I'm really pleased to see

00:22:13.880 --> 00:22:16.000
that  we're pretty much there with

00:22:16.079 --> 00:22:20.039
that  the same as the  connect 

00:22:20.119 --> 00:22:22.799
the shared pathway in Cameron Park which

00:22:22.880 --> 00:22:25.079
has taken a nber of years to get to

00:22:25.160 --> 00:22:28.039
completion but now people who live in

00:22:28.119 --> 00:22:30.920
Cameron park or what we as locals call

00:22:31.000 --> 00:22:34.720
the old Cameron Park can actually get to

00:22:34.799 --> 00:22:38.160
past thefield oval by a shared pathway

00:22:38.240 --> 00:22:40.799
the children are able to ride their

00:22:40.880 --> 00:22:44.000
bikes or walk  parents are able to use

00:22:44.079 --> 00:22:46.519
prams to get there it's not a case of

00:22:46.599 --> 00:22:48.799
one side of Cameron Park has to jp

00:22:48.880 --> 00:22:51.279
into a car to get to the other side and

00:22:51.359 --> 00:22:52.640
that is a great achievement that

00:22:52.720 --> 00:22:55.920
connects the community but also is a

00:22:56.000 --> 00:22:59.640
healthy and productive way of of using

00:22:59.720 --> 00:23:02.039
Council resources to benefit

00:23:02.119 --> 00:23:05.400
everybody  there are a nber of other

00:23:05.480 --> 00:23:06.880
things that have happened during the

00:23:06.960 --> 00:23:10.680
course of this term and as I said I

00:23:10.759 --> 00:23:12.960
would encourage people to look at this

00:23:13.039 --> 00:23:15.480
docent  there are the things that we

00:23:15.559 --> 00:23:18.920
do all of the time the events have

00:23:19.000 --> 00:23:21.880
increased the sorts of activities that

00:23:21.960 --> 00:23:25.240
we provide the sponsorship we provide

00:23:25.319 --> 00:23:28.720
the funding that we provide all of this

00:23:28.799 --> 00:23:31.720
goes together as a quite complex jigsaw

00:23:31.799 --> 00:23:35.079
puzzle of the way in which us as a

00:23:35.160 --> 00:23:39.599
council is able to support a variety and

00:23:39.680 --> 00:23:42.319
diverse parts of our community thank you

00:23:42.400 --> 00:23:45.480
Mr Man thank you Council Adam waight 

00:23:45.559 --> 00:23:47.839
I did note too just in terms of items on

00:23:47.920 --> 00:23:51.240
the horizon for North Ward  the learn

00:23:51.319 --> 00:23:53.359
to swim pool at West Wallen which have

00:23:53.440 --> 00:23:56.240
been an advocate for all of my eight

00:23:56.319 --> 00:23:57.880
years here so looking forward to that

00:23:57.960 --> 00:24:00.960
coming to fruition shortly and obviously

00:24:01.039 --> 00:24:04.599
 the redeveloped $50 million 

00:24:04.680 --> 00:24:06.480
improvements to Hunter Sports Center

00:24:06.559 --> 00:24:09.680
which is again on the cusp of being 

00:24:09.759 --> 00:24:11.720
completed so yeah lots of good things to

00:24:11.799 --> 00:24:14.359
come thank

00:24:14.440 --> 00:24:17.200
you councelor an Cliff or Deputy Mayor

00:24:17.279 --> 00:24:20.640
an Cliff thank you thank you Mr Mayor

00:24:20.720 --> 00:24:22.920
probably be a little less patriotic to

00:24:23.000 --> 00:24:25.359
my individual Wards I think we've

00:24:25.440 --> 00:24:27.200
covered most of the projects in the

00:24:27.279 --> 00:24:30.319
booklet you are

00:24:30.400 --> 00:24:32.680
but what I will do is I will touch I

00:24:32.759 --> 00:24:34.920
suppose at a high level we have we have

00:24:35.000 --> 00:24:36.640
had it was acknowledged earlier short

00:24:36.720 --> 00:24:39.119
term 2 years and N9 months and we have

00:24:39.200 --> 00:24:41.440
come forward on some big big things and

00:24:41.519 --> 00:24:44.400
I draw certainly in my mind I draw that

00:24:44.480 --> 00:24:45.920
at some of the the investment in the

00:24:46.000 --> 00:24:47.559
tourism space that we've seen some of

00:24:47.640 --> 00:24:50.079
the general investment in the city 

00:24:50.160 --> 00:24:53.680
our Quest towards the evolution away

00:24:53.759 --> 00:24:56.359
from traditional Mining and energy

00:24:56.440 --> 00:24:57.960
sector that has dominated part of our

00:24:58.039 --> 00:24:59.039
city

00:24:59.119 --> 00:25:00.960
and I think we've grown as a place to

00:25:01.039 --> 00:25:02.559
live a place a

00:25:02.640 --> 00:25:04.640
destination but I also want to take a

00:25:04.720 --> 00:25:06.519
moment to acknowledge that while there

00:25:06.599 --> 00:25:08.480
are plenty of successes looking forward

00:25:08.559 --> 00:25:10.920
there are plenty of challenges ahead we

00:25:11.000 --> 00:25:13.400
cannot lose sight of the fact that this

00:25:13.480 --> 00:25:17.640
is a there are difficult times

00:25:17.720 --> 00:25:19.119
everywhere I think at the moment in

00:25:19.200 --> 00:25:22.680
particular in economic circstance and

00:25:22.759 --> 00:25:26.240
as a city we are not immune to that 

00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:28.680
some of the indicators in here while

00:25:28.759 --> 00:25:31.039
they are only slight decreases they are

00:25:31.119 --> 00:25:33.359
things that we need to be constantly

00:25:33.440 --> 00:25:35.720
aware of we have a city that we want to

00:25:35.799 --> 00:25:38.640
grow we want to bring businesses here

00:25:38.720 --> 00:25:40.319
and we want to have people who live here

00:25:40.400 --> 00:25:42.519
and they work here and they play here

00:25:42.599 --> 00:25:44.279
and I think as we look at the indicators

00:25:44.359 --> 00:25:46.480
we need to be making sure that future

00:25:46.559 --> 00:25:49.960
focused council is responding before we

00:25:50.039 --> 00:25:52.960
see those issues emerge responding to be

00:25:53.039 --> 00:25:55.119
as advanced as we can so that in four

00:25:55.200 --> 00:25:57.200
years time we're sitting here and rather

00:25:57.279 --> 00:25:59.000
than they're being DEC in Trends they

00:25:59.079 --> 00:26:02.200
are all in fact increasing so I commend

00:26:02.279 --> 00:26:05.119
the report to the room with the Proviso

00:26:05.200 --> 00:26:07.960
that we continue to Future Focus look

00:26:08.039 --> 00:26:10.440
forward thank you Mr Mayor thank you

00:26:10.519 --> 00:26:12.400

mayor Schultz  I'd like to acknowledge

00:26:17.759 --> 00:26:19.400
first the previous Council and the

00:26:19.480 --> 00:26:21.640
council staff for the wonderful efforts

00:26:21.720 --> 00:26:23.640
in that last term in the achievements

00:26:23.720 --> 00:26:25.599
and tackling the challenges that they

00:26:25.680 --> 00:26:28.279
all face particularly post pandemic and

00:26:28.359 --> 00:26:30.480
and responding as a city and still

00:26:30.559 --> 00:26:32.240
achieving the objectives that were set

00:26:32.319 --> 00:26:36.839
out in your  CSP  and the delivery

00:26:36.920 --> 00:26:39.720
plans for that term so a commendation to

00:26:39.799 --> 00:26:41.880
the previous Council a challenge to us

00:26:41.960 --> 00:26:45.079
newbies is that we come in and we 

00:26:45.160 --> 00:26:47.920
come with that same energy to help the

00:26:48.000 --> 00:26:50.240
experienced counselors and the 

00:26:50.319 --> 00:26:54.079
wonderful staff to continue that as 

00:26:54.160 --> 00:26:55.799
Deputy Mayor ancliff said there is still

00:26:55.880 --> 00:26:57.480
challenges for us to challenge and to

00:26:57.559 --> 00:27:00.000
tackle and to continue to build and

00:27:00.079 --> 00:27:01.960
invest in the growth and the future of

00:27:02.039 --> 00:27:05.079
this  wonderful City of Lake mccy one

00:27:05.160 --> 00:27:07.119
thing that particularly stood out to me

00:27:07.200 --> 00:27:09.799
in this report is the nber of

00:27:09.880 --> 00:27:13.720
volunteers across this city so

00:27:13.799 --> 00:27:16.359
175,000 and 79 I don't think that

00:27:16.440 --> 00:27:18.680
captures all of the volunteers across

00:27:18.759 --> 00:27:20.079
all of the groups across all of the

00:27:20.160 --> 00:27:22.359
wards and I actually just on the record

00:27:22.440 --> 00:27:24.599
want to  acknowledge their efforts and

00:27:24.680 --> 00:27:26.960
their contributions to our city  I

00:27:27.039 --> 00:27:29.160
want to thank them for their services to

00:27:29.240 --> 00:27:31.880
the many needs  whether that be in

00:27:31.960 --> 00:27:34.119
sporting Fields whether that be in areas

00:27:34.200 --> 00:27:37.440
of of  economic and socioeconomic need

00:27:37.519 --> 00:27:39.720
whether it be  to my fellow Marine

00:27:39.799 --> 00:27:42.039
rescue volunteers  there is a

00:27:42.119 --> 00:27:44.839
multitude of volunteering organizations

00:27:44.920 --> 00:27:47.960
and your effort has been seen and I

00:27:48.039 --> 00:27:50.240
thank you for that and I hope over this

00:27:50.319 --> 00:27:53.160
coming four years  we would continue

00:27:53.240 --> 00:27:55.279
to grow that Trend and invest into our

00:27:55.359 --> 00:27:57.440
community and the multiple facets of

00:27:57.519 --> 00:28:01.599
that  so I commend this report to the

00:28:01.680 --> 00:28:05.160
councilors thank you councelor Schultz 

00:28:05.240 --> 00:28:07.079
there doesn't appear to be any speaker

00:28:07.160 --> 00:28:10.319
so I just might wind up before I go back

00:28:10.400 --> 00:28:12.359
to  councilor Buckley if she wants her

00:28:12.440 --> 00:28:14.279
right of reply so as we've said the

00:28:14.359 --> 00:28:16.400
state of the city report outlines the

00:28:16.480 --> 00:28:19.559
progress that Council has made since

00:28:19.640 --> 00:28:22.880
December 2021  in terms of the vision

00:28:22.960 --> 00:28:25.839
and strategies presented in our 10e

00:28:25.920 --> 00:28:29.000
community strategic plan I 2third of the

00:28:29.079 --> 00:28:31.359
indicators are trending in the desired

00:28:31.440 --> 00:28:34.079
direction or holding steady which is

00:28:34.160 --> 00:28:36.599
which is always great to see  a nber

00:28:36.680 --> 00:28:38.880
of counselors have touched on all of

00:28:38.960 --> 00:28:41.119
those big initiatives that we were able

00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:44.680
to complete  last term so the opening

00:28:44.759 --> 00:28:47.000
of the Windell Hub the extension of the

00:28:47.079 --> 00:28:50.880
Fernley aicle shared track  the

00:28:50.960 --> 00:28:52.640
opening of The Sugar Valley Library

00:28:52.720 --> 00:28:55.160
Muse you know there's two libraries in

00:28:55.240 --> 00:28:57.359
and of itself right at windale and at

00:28:57.440 --> 00:28:59.759
Cameron Park how many other councils

00:28:59.839 --> 00:29:01.640
around the state are opening new

00:29:01.720 --> 00:29:05.319
libraries none that I'm aware of  the

00:29:05.400 --> 00:29:06.880
new bulky waste

00:29:06.960 --> 00:29:10.079
system  supporting increased

00:29:10.160 --> 00:29:12.160
activation in terms of Tourism and

00:29:12.240 --> 00:29:15.960
investment in our city  we recently 

00:29:16.039 --> 00:29:19.400
celebrated 10 years of the  Economic

00:29:19.480 --> 00:29:22.079
Development board dantia so lots of

00:29:22.160 --> 00:29:25.039
things have been going great  there

00:29:25.119 --> 00:29:26.640
are obviously things that we can do

00:29:26.720 --> 00:29:28.720
better and to touch on what coun Schultz

00:29:28.799 --> 00:29:31.599
said  yeah we need to you know bring

00:29:31.680 --> 00:29:33.480
that new energy particularly from the

00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:36.960
new councilors and  ensure that we're

00:29:37.039 --> 00:29:38.559
moving in the right direction going

00:29:38.640 --> 00:29:41.759
forward  we have made I think a

00:29:41.839 --> 00:29:44.119
conscious decision that we want late

00:29:44.200 --> 00:29:46.839
mcquarry to be a familyfriendly

00:29:46.920 --> 00:29:49.039
environment we want to maintain that

00:29:49.119 --> 00:29:51.720
lifestyle as  Deputy Mayor ancliff

00:29:51.799 --> 00:29:53.480
said we want to you know strategically

00:29:53.559 --> 00:29:56.559
diversify our economy wherever possible

00:29:56.640 --> 00:29:58.240
 and you know promoting job

00:29:58.319 --> 00:30:00.279
opportunities while enhancing the

00:30:00.359 --> 00:30:02.519
natural environment that we who have all

00:30:02.599 --> 00:30:05.359
lived here for quite some time  really

00:30:05.440 --> 00:30:08.359
value so with that counselors there

00:30:08.440 --> 00:30:10.720
doesn't appear to be any further

00:30:10.799 --> 00:30:13.720
speakers I'm going to go  to council

00:30:13.799 --> 00:30:17.000
Buckley if you'd like or a r of reply

00:30:17.079 --> 00:30:19.839
thank you if you just pop your

00:30:19.920 --> 00:30:22.319
yep thank you councel Buckley thank you

00:30:22.400 --> 00:30:25.200
Mr Mayor  look taking on board

00:30:25.279 --> 00:30:27.119
everything that the other councilors

00:30:27.200 --> 00:30:31.440
have said and mentioned  I think we

00:30:31.519 --> 00:30:33.880
are very fortunate to live where we

00:30:33.960 --> 00:30:37.359
live we do have we do need to be looking

00:30:37.440 --> 00:30:41.599
at the future and making sure that we 

00:30:41.680 --> 00:30:43.480
are able to deal with anything that

00:30:43.559 --> 00:30:46.559
comes up but I do think we're in a much

00:30:46.640 --> 00:30:48.880
better position than a lot of other

00:30:48.960 --> 00:30:53.039
councils  and you know that's not

00:30:53.119 --> 00:30:54.559
that's been because of the hard work

00:30:54.640 --> 00:30:56.960
that I think we've done as counselors

00:30:57.039 --> 00:31:00.519
and also counsel staff have achieved 

00:31:00.599 --> 00:31:02.559
we've all worked fairly collabor

00:31:02.640 --> 00:31:05.359
collaboratively together  and I think

00:31:05.440 --> 00:31:07.640
that shows in the

00:31:07.720 --> 00:31:10.279
report I think we live in a wonderful

00:31:10.359 --> 00:31:14.640
place  we're very fortunate to be here

00:31:14.720 --> 00:31:15.559
in Lake

00:31:15.640 --> 00:31:17.720
mcari and you can see that a lot of

00:31:17.799 --> 00:31:20.039
other people want to come and live here

00:31:20.119 --> 00:31:22.960
 it's it's becoming more and more

00:31:23.039 --> 00:31:27.079
popular  our lifestyle is second to

00:31:27.160 --> 00:31:30.400
none  and I think that you know we we

00:31:30.480 --> 00:31:33.079
do a wonderful job so I just wanted to

00:31:33.160 --> 00:31:37.880
commend the report  and  and say yay

00:32:28.759 --> 00:32:32.039
is 24

00:32:32.319 --> 00:32:37.960
sp06 counselor nominations for councelor

00:32:38.039 --> 00:32:42.240
committees  I can see councelor Adam

00:32:42.319 --> 00:32:43.880
you're looking for the

00:32:43.960 --> 00:32:47.359
call  yes thank you Mr Mayor  this

00:32:47.440 --> 00:32:50.440
this is a little bit complicated but 

00:32:50.519 --> 00:32:52.559
I will do my best to make it as simple

00:32:52.640 --> 00:32:55.160
as possible to get through  quite a

00:32:55.240 --> 00:32:57.759
bit of activity I would like to move

00:32:57.839 --> 00:33:01.160
move a replacement motion Mr Mayor 

00:33:01.240 --> 00:33:03.480
that replacement motion has been

00:33:03.559 --> 00:33:07.039
circulated to councilors this evening

00:33:07.119 --> 00:33:10.920
and it includes the names to this point

00:33:11.000 --> 00:33:13.400
of counselors who would like to nominate

00:33:13.480 --> 00:33:15.000
for the various

00:33:15.079 --> 00:33:17.559
committees  I understand that if there

00:33:17.640 --> 00:33:20.799
is the necessity for an amendment to

00:33:20.880 --> 00:33:23.759
this because councelors may have changed

00:33:23.839 --> 00:33:26.759
their mind about their options or would

00:33:26.839 --> 00:33:29.079
like to take on a larger role that is

00:33:29.160 --> 00:33:32.440
possible I would also like to move an

00:33:32.519 --> 00:33:37.039
amendment to section e and I would like

00:33:37.119 --> 00:33:39.720
to move that we defer the decision on

00:33:39.799 --> 00:33:41.680
the international children's games

00:33:41.759 --> 00:33:44.519
reference committee pending a counselor

00:33:44.599 --> 00:33:47.880
workshop and the hunter Academy of sport

00:33:47.960 --> 00:33:51.680
be invited to attend and delete section

00:33:51.759 --> 00:33:53.920
F which therefore becomes

00:33:54.000 --> 00:33:56.200
redundant if if that's a fast way of

00:33:56.279 --> 00:33:58.759
getting around it Mr may I I'm pleased

00:33:58.839 --> 00:34:01.039
thank you Council Adam White do we have

00:34:01.119 --> 00:34:04.000
a second  for that Council Pauling

00:34:04.079 --> 00:34:07.480
thank you  before we go into debate I

00:34:07.559 --> 00:34:09.719
just might pause for a minute just to

00:34:09.800 --> 00:34:13.360
allow counselors the opportunity to

00:34:13.440 --> 00:34:16.800
reflect on what is up on the screen to

00:34:16.880 --> 00:34:20.519
ensure that you're comfortable and that

00:34:20.599 --> 00:34:23.199
it's accurate in terms of making sure

00:34:23.280 --> 00:34:26.320
that your names are where they should be

00:34:26.400 --> 00:34:28.639
 or if

00:34:28.719 --> 00:34:31.360
if your name is in the wrong location

00:34:31.440 --> 00:34:34.239
potentially now is probably the the best

00:34:34.320 --> 00:34:37.760
time to to flag that prior to moving

00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:40.719
into debate and

00:34:40.800 --> 00:34:44.199
discussion counselors are we generally

00:34:44.280 --> 00:34:45.960
comfortable by the looks of things no

00:34:46.039 --> 00:34:50.679
one's looking for the the call at the

00:34:55.159 --> 00:34:59.639
moment on that note 

00:35:07.679 --> 00:35:12.199
yes okay  the CEO has just asked me to

00:35:12.280 --> 00:35:15.039
reflect on the traffic facilities and

00:35:15.119 --> 00:35:18.440
Road Safety Committee  just to ensure

00:35:18.519 --> 00:35:20.960
that there was no West Ward counselor

00:35:21.039 --> 00:35:24.280
who wanted to nominate for that

00:35:24.360 --> 00:35:26.800
committee prior to us entering into

00:35:26.880 --> 00:35:29.639
debate

00:35:31.760 --> 00:35:35.800
there doesn't appear to be anyone oh yes

00:35:35.880 --> 00:35:37.360
sorry

00:35:37.440 --> 00:35:41.800
oh counil I'll go to

00:35:42.079 --> 00:35:45.840
you councelor Bishop Mr Mayor look I can

00:35:45.920 --> 00:35:49.320
see that both Council Swinsburg and

00:35:49.400 --> 00:35:54.119
Council Pauling  indicated to me I'm

00:35:54.199 --> 00:35:57.280
assing  that I nominate so if they

00:35:57.360 --> 00:35:58.920
don't have any problem nobody else has

00:35:59.000 --> 00:36:01.000
any problem then I will put my name

00:36:01.079 --> 00:36:03.920
forward because that's what I do I take

00:36:04.000 --> 00:36:05.199
one for the

00:36:05.280 --> 00:36:07.679
team thank you

00:36:07.760 --> 00:36:10.760
councelor

00:36:11.840 --> 00:36:14.719
Bishop  there doesn't so we have

00:36:14.800 --> 00:36:17.400
councelor Bishop being added as the west

00:36:17.480 --> 00:36:20.559
ward counselor to the traffic facilities

00:36:20.639 --> 00:36:24.840
and Road Safety Committee  so that's a

00:36:24.920 --> 00:36:27.559
potential Amendment to the alternate

00:36:27.639 --> 00:36:30.199
motion are there any

00:36:30.280 --> 00:36:33.320
further  amendments that people are

00:36:33.400 --> 00:36:35.840
aware of now is probably the best time

00:36:35.920 --> 00:36:39.280
to to flag those if there are

00:36:39.360 --> 00:36:41.920
any I might go back

00:36:42.000 --> 00:36:45.400
to councelor Aden wa just to make sure

00:36:45.480 --> 00:36:48.000
that you're happy to take that on you

00:36:48.079 --> 00:36:51.360
are before we yes happy to accept the

00:36:51.440 --> 00:36:53.760
amendment yeah and councilor Pauling

00:36:53.840 --> 00:36:57.239
you're comfortable yes thank you all

00:36:57.320 --> 00:37:00.280
right we will go to you councilor Adam F

00:37:00.360 --> 00:37:03.559
 as the Mover of the alternate motion

00:37:03.639 --> 00:37:06.159
I I'll try to be brief  we've just

00:37:06.239 --> 00:37:08.079
recently talked about a really cool

00:37:08.159 --> 00:37:10.079
showand tell of all the things that we

00:37:10.159 --> 00:37:13.480
do in terms of a council I think this

00:37:13.559 --> 00:37:17.000
motion at least needs the recognition

00:37:17.079 --> 00:37:19.679
that councilors don't just turn up on

00:37:19.760 --> 00:37:23.039
Monday nights and  look cool in suits

00:37:23.119 --> 00:37:24.920
or ties or

00:37:25.000 --> 00:37:27.440
whatever there are lots and lots of

00:37:27.519 --> 00:37:30.599
committees that counselors attend they

00:37:30.679 --> 00:37:32.760
committees that involve Council and

00:37:32.840 --> 00:37:35.480
Council staff they committees that are

00:37:35.559 --> 00:37:37.599
Community committees and their

00:37:37.679 --> 00:37:40.719
consultative committees as well as the

00:37:40.800 --> 00:37:43.559
portfolio groups that councilors are on

00:37:43.639 --> 00:37:46.800
as well so councilors have taken a great

00:37:46.880 --> 00:37:48.559
deal of responsibility in being able to

00:37:48.639 --> 00:37:51.000
fill all of these positions because it

00:37:51.079 --> 00:37:54.840
is a really timec consing but very

00:37:54.920 --> 00:37:57.840
important task that we have for the

00:37:57.920 --> 00:38:00.400
Community having said that  a little

00:38:00.480 --> 00:38:03.599
bit of explanation for my other part of

00:38:03.679 --> 00:38:05.679
the amendment  the international

00:38:05.760 --> 00:38:07.760
children's games has been something that

00:38:07.840 --> 00:38:10.119
late mccor city has been involved with

00:38:10.199 --> 00:38:13.039
for a very long time we have even hosted

00:38:13.119 --> 00:38:16.760
the games and just because we do

00:38:16.840 --> 00:38:19.280
something over and over it doesn't mean

00:38:19.360 --> 00:38:21.360
that we should continue to do something

00:38:21.440 --> 00:38:24.119
over and over but I think that if we're

00:38:24.199 --> 00:38:26.880
going to review and do cost benefit

00:38:26.960 --> 00:38:30.039
analysis of the things that we do we

00:38:30.119 --> 00:38:32.880
need to in a workshop situation

00:38:32.960 --> 00:38:34.760
certainly in consultation with the

00:38:34.840 --> 00:38:37.280
partners that we've had over the years

00:38:37.360 --> 00:38:40.400
discuss the options I think we need to

00:38:40.480 --> 00:38:42.480
talk about the

00:38:42.559 --> 00:38:45.159
costs as well as the benefits and costs

00:38:45.239 --> 00:38:48.280
are actually Financial costs because it

00:38:48.360 --> 00:38:51.199
may well be possible in a workshop

00:38:51.280 --> 00:38:53.559
situation that we can come up with an

00:38:53.639 --> 00:38:56.199
alternative that may well be of more

00:38:56.280 --> 00:39:00.320
benefit to to  The Wider community and

00:39:00.400 --> 00:39:02.800
youth sport with money that we are

00:39:02.880 --> 00:39:05.800
actually expending on one thing so I

00:39:05.880 --> 00:39:07.679
don't know what the outcome of a

00:39:07.760 --> 00:39:10.920
workshop will be Mr Mayor but the point

00:39:11.000 --> 00:39:14.440
of a workshop is that we all get to in

00:39:14.519 --> 00:39:16.760
one of those committee style situations

00:39:16.840 --> 00:39:20.639
that we're talking about  discuss cost

00:39:20.719 --> 00:39:23.559
benefit analysis the importance of the

00:39:23.639 --> 00:39:25.960
things that we do the way in which we

00:39:26.039 --> 00:39:28.519
could Pro improve the things that we do

00:39:28.599 --> 00:39:32.000
and possibly reallocating resources to

00:39:32.079 --> 00:39:34.559
something different nothing has ever set

00:39:34.639 --> 00:39:37.199
in stone and we should be reviewing and

00:39:37.280 --> 00:39:39.880
changing from time to time and I have no

00:39:39.960 --> 00:39:42.280
doubt that in a few years time someone

00:39:42.360 --> 00:39:44.519
sitting in these chairs will probably be

00:39:44.599 --> 00:39:46.880
wanting to review and have a workshop on

00:39:46.960 --> 00:39:49.400
whatever we decide to do thank you Mr

00:39:49.480 --> 00:39:52.880
Mayor thank you counselor Adam

00:39:52.960 --> 00:39:55.400
TW H there doesn't appear at this stage

00:39:55.480 --> 00:39:58.320
to be any further speakers  I too

00:39:58.400 --> 00:39:59.840
would like to thank all of the

00:39:59.920 --> 00:40:01.360
counselors for putting themselves

00:40:01.440 --> 00:40:03.280
forward for committees  it is a

00:40:03.360 --> 00:40:05.760
significant undertaking both of your

00:40:05.840 --> 00:40:09.440
time and your energy  but yeah as part

00:40:09.519 --> 00:40:11.000
of those committees you do make a

00:40:11.079 --> 00:40:13.679
valuable contribution to the city 

00:40:13.760 --> 00:40:16.079
which is which is really important 

00:40:16.159 --> 00:40:20.119
just touching on your  tweak if you

00:40:20.199 --> 00:40:21.679
like or Amendment regarding the

00:40:21.760 --> 00:40:24.559
international children's games I'm fully

00:40:24.639 --> 00:40:27.920
supportive of deferring 

00:40:28.000 --> 00:40:31.159
pending a a workshop to discuss the

00:40:31.239 --> 00:40:33.480
international children's games would be

00:40:33.559 --> 00:40:37.079
great to hear from the hunter Academy of

00:40:37.159 --> 00:40:39.719
sport I think it's appropriate given the

00:40:39.800 --> 00:40:43.320
international children's games has has

00:40:43.400 --> 00:40:45.199
been around for a nber of years I

00:40:45.280 --> 00:40:48.159
recall it was around when there were

00:40:48.239 --> 00:40:49.039
mayor

00:40:49.119 --> 00:40:52.159
Piper it was under May Harrison

00:40:52.239 --> 00:40:55.159
obviously under May Fraser so if we are

00:40:55.239 --> 00:40:58.199
going to  you know go in a different

00:40:58.280 --> 00:41:00.119
direction I think it's appropriate that

00:41:00.199 --> 00:41:02.880
we Workshop it and hear from the hunter

00:41:02.960 --> 00:41:06.440
Academy of sport you also touched on 

00:41:06.519 --> 00:41:08.440
Council Adam thwe the importance of

00:41:08.519 --> 00:41:12.719
having full and Frank discussion so just

00:41:12.800 --> 00:41:15.199
flagging for staff it would be great to

00:41:15.280 --> 00:41:18.960
have the full  costings associated

00:41:19.039 --> 00:41:22.239
with our International Children's games

00:41:22.320 --> 00:41:26.360
committee  that including the cost to

00:41:26.440 --> 00:41:30.559
send the mayor and or their delegates to

00:41:30.639 --> 00:41:32.599
International Children's Games events

00:41:32.679 --> 00:41:36.360
should be part of that Workshop

00:41:36.440 --> 00:41:39.719
discussion so that's me on that one I do

00:41:39.800 --> 00:41:42.519
see we have councelor Conroy looking for

00:41:42.599 --> 00:41:44.840
the call councel Conroy thank you Mr

00:41:44.920 --> 00:41:47.000
Mayor  in the first instance I have a

00:41:47.079 --> 00:41:49.960
question for staff if that's okay 

00:41:50.039 --> 00:41:51.599
regarding the charters for the council

00:41:51.679 --> 00:41:53.559
committees how many have been presented

00:41:53.639 --> 00:41:55.760
with proposed amendments to their

00:41:55.840 --> 00:41:57.440
charters

00:41:57.519 --> 00:42:00.360
thank you councilor Conroy I'll defer to

00:42:00.440 --> 00:42:02.039
the

00:42:02.119 --> 00:42:06.400
CEO Adam oh sorry

00:42:06.480 --> 00:42:09.039
madam it's

00:42:09.119 --> 00:42:13.519
not but Madam works as well whatever not

00:42:13.599 --> 00:42:15.599
[Music]

00:42:15.679 --> 00:42:18.559
fast Miss Davies thank you Miss Davies

00:42:18.639 --> 00:42:20.400
over to you from Madame

00:42:20.480 --> 00:42:23.840
mayor thank you Mr Mayor  I can

00:42:23.920 --> 00:42:26.679
confirm that every Charter had minor

00:42:26.760 --> 00:42:30.400
type of graphical and style edits there

00:42:30.480 --> 00:42:34.760
were several Charters that  feedback

00:42:34.840 --> 00:42:38.440
was  provided previously and there may

00:42:38.519 --> 00:42:42.559
have been a change to the chairperson

00:42:42.639 --> 00:42:45.400
for example is changed to a counselor in

00:42:45.480 --> 00:42:49.840
the instance of the access and inclusion

00:42:49.920 --> 00:42:53.320
panel  I could provide those marked up

00:42:53.400 --> 00:42:56.800
if that would Pro if you'd like to see

00:42:56.880 --> 00:42:57.920
some of

00:42:58.000 --> 00:43:00.920
those councelor Conroy  thank you I do

00:43:01.000 --> 00:43:03.320
normally find those markups useful just

00:43:03.400 --> 00:43:05.360
because it does cut down on the vast

00:43:05.440 --> 00:43:07.920
quantities of reading that we normally

00:43:08.000 --> 00:43:11.559
 do  however I'm happy to take the

00:43:11.639 --> 00:43:14.519
charters on their face value it's more

00:43:14.599 --> 00:43:16.920
 I'll probably speak  in favor of

00:43:17.000 --> 00:43:18.679
the motion but with some reservations

00:43:18.760 --> 00:43:20.840
regarding some of our committees and the

00:43:20.920 --> 00:43:24.639
feedback counselors have given  in the

00:43:24.719 --> 00:43:26.519
last term we've had workshops and

00:43:26.599 --> 00:43:29.519
feedback to the council staff that a

00:43:29.599 --> 00:43:32.119
nber of the Committees

00:43:32.199 --> 00:43:35.440
 probably need some further tweaks to

00:43:35.519 --> 00:43:37.320
to that  serving on the council

00:43:37.400 --> 00:43:39.000
committees is one of the Privileges of

00:43:39.079 --> 00:43:40.480
being a counselor and I think that's

00:43:40.559 --> 00:43:42.800
something that councelor Adams white 

00:43:42.880 --> 00:43:45.719
was quite expansive on it's you are

00:43:45.800 --> 00:43:47.760
getting to be exposed to expert staff in

00:43:47.840 --> 00:43:49.880
terms of research policy development and

00:43:49.960 --> 00:43:52.239
asset delivery it's one of the best ways

00:43:52.320 --> 00:43:54.320
to deepen your understanding of how the

00:43:54.400 --> 00:43:57.280
council actually works as a counselor 

00:43:57.360 --> 00:43:58.760
and also some of the functions and

00:43:58.840 --> 00:44:01.559
limitations of council you get to work

00:44:01.639 --> 00:44:03.199
with respected community members and

00:44:03.280 --> 00:44:05.280
Advocates and it's educative and it

00:44:05.360 --> 00:44:06.840
deepens the relationships with our

00:44:06.920 --> 00:44:08.679
amazing Council

00:44:08.760 --> 00:44:12.800
volunteers however some of our feedback

00:44:12.880 --> 00:44:14.880
regarding meeting length and frequency

00:44:14.960 --> 00:44:17.079
the structure and membership of the

00:44:17.159 --> 00:44:20.800
council's Committees  probably could

00:44:20.880 --> 00:44:22.840
have been finessed in my opinion in some

00:44:22.920 --> 00:44:26.679
of these Charters a little bit more 

00:44:26.760 --> 00:44:29.079
every organization has limited resources

00:44:29.159 --> 00:44:31.840
our Council staff our counselors and

00:44:31.920 --> 00:44:35.039
also  what we ask our volunteers to

00:44:35.119 --> 00:44:37.840
contribute in their expertise  I think

00:44:37.920 --> 00:44:40.400
our committees need to be accessible 

00:44:40.480 --> 00:44:43.320
to the community but councilors also

00:44:43.400 --> 00:44:45.519
need to be accessible to the community

00:44:45.599 --> 00:44:50.519
Beyond committees and  I think  it

00:44:50.599 --> 00:44:52.119
would be good in their future term to

00:44:52.199 --> 00:44:53.360
see some of

00:44:53.440 --> 00:44:56.960
these Charters  slightly improved in

00:44:57.039 --> 00:44:59.199
in terms of the nber of counselors and

00:44:59.280 --> 00:45:03.360
Quor in particular thank you thank you

00:45:03.440 --> 00:45:06.079
councelor Conroy  councelor Bishop I

00:45:06.159 --> 00:45:09.119
did see your come up are you still after

00:45:09.199 --> 00:45:13.199
the call yeah that's fine y yes if you

00:45:13.280 --> 00:45:16.559
great councel Bishop thanks Mr Mayor 

00:45:16.639 --> 00:45:18.119
I just wanted to clarify something with

00:45:18.199 --> 00:45:19.679
regards to roads and traffic I may have

00:45:19.760 --> 00:45:20.800
been a little bit flippant with my

00:45:20.880 --> 00:45:23.559
answer but  Road Safety is incredibly

00:45:23.639 --> 00:45:25.159
important especially when we've had

00:45:25.239 --> 00:45:27.360
things come up  around school SCH

00:45:27.440 --> 00:45:29.480
school zones that's incredibly important

00:45:29.559 --> 00:45:30.960
to me and I always take that very

00:45:31.039 --> 00:45:34.480
seriously the  the recommendations of

00:45:34.559 --> 00:45:37.199
this particular committee and I look

00:45:37.280 --> 00:45:38.679
forward to working with Council Adams

00:45:38.760 --> 00:45:41.280
Way and councelor Buckley on that and

00:45:41.360 --> 00:45:45.920
the external   committee members

00:45:46.000 --> 00:45:47.480
moving forward for the next four years

00:45:47.559 --> 00:45:50.159
so thank you thank you Council

00:45:50.239 --> 00:45:52.880
Bishop there doesn't appear to be any

00:45:52.960 --> 00:45:55.039
further speakers I'll go back to council

00:45:55.119 --> 00:45:58.760
Adam White if you'd like your right of

00:45:58.840 --> 00:46:02.960
reply Council Adam  yes thanks Mr M 

00:46:03.039 --> 00:46:05.119
it's good that we've had some input here

00:46:05.199 --> 00:46:08.480
we're all about continuous Improvement

00:46:08.559 --> 00:46:11.000
and continuous Improvement of the way in

00:46:11.079 --> 00:46:13.360
which we run our committees  the

00:46:13.440 --> 00:46:15.639
efficiency and  particularly the

00:46:15.719 --> 00:46:19.280
efficient use of time is a really useful

00:46:19.360 --> 00:46:21.880
goal to be looking forward to on on the

00:46:21.960 --> 00:46:23.599
issue of the international children

00:46:23.679 --> 00:46:25.719
games I think that it's important so

00:46:25.800 --> 00:46:28.239
that  people don't get any

00:46:28.320 --> 00:46:31.039
misunderstandings about what we're doing

00:46:31.119 --> 00:46:34.599
in terms of our Workshop Lake mccar City

00:46:34.679 --> 00:46:37.920
Council has and will be into the future

00:46:38.000 --> 00:46:42.519
committed to supporting youth sport and

00:46:42.599 --> 00:46:44.639
 I would hope the way we've discussed

00:46:44.719 --> 00:46:47.360
this is that whatever resources we do

00:46:47.440 --> 00:46:51.800
have will remain in that space it may be

00:46:51.880 --> 00:46:55.559
redirected I don't know but  it is

00:46:55.639 --> 00:46:57.760
really important and I feel as if for

00:46:57.840 --> 00:46:59.519
one of the few occasions I can speak on

00:46:59.599 --> 00:47:01.719
behalf of everyone around the room we

00:47:01.800 --> 00:47:04.920
have a commitment to youth sport and

00:47:05.000 --> 00:47:07.480
we'll continue to maintain that I'd also

00:47:07.559 --> 00:47:09.639
like to thank you Mr Mayor for sort of

00:47:09.719 --> 00:47:11.519
outlining some of the possible terms of

00:47:11.599 --> 00:47:14.840
reference for our discussions on  the

00:47:14.920 --> 00:47:17.199
night that we have our workshop on this

00:47:17.280 --> 00:47:20.239
I think it is good to know where you're

00:47:20.320 --> 00:47:22.559
heading even if you're not sure of the

00:47:22.639 --> 00:47:24.920
exact destination at this point in time

00:47:25.000 --> 00:47:27.280
so thank you for that input and I would

00:47:27.360 --> 00:47:29.559
encourage councilors to support the

00:47:29.639 --> 00:47:31.719
recommendation even though it is such a

00:47:31.800 --> 00:47:35.000
big recommendation it is much more

00:47:35.079 --> 00:47:37.280
efficient than previous methods of

00:47:37.360 --> 00:47:39.519
dealing with committees thank you Mr

00:47:39.599 --> 00:47:42.159

00:53:46.519 --> 00:53:49.079
terms of the value of these committees

00:53:49.159 --> 00:53:51.159

00:53:51.239 --> 00:53:52.760
couple of external committees over the

00:53:52.840 --> 00:53:54.960
last term of counsel and I certainly

00:53:55.039 --> 00:53:56.719
find them one of the more Val Val

00:53:56.800 --> 00:53:58.840

some of the organizations and some

00:54:03.559 --> 00:54:05.119
incredible people in our community many

00:54:05.199 --> 00:54:06.880

things that they've joined these

committees for and certainly I hope that

00:54:10.960 --> 00:54:13.679

00:55:44.519 --> 00:55:48.039

Pauling would you like to speak on the

00:55:49.800 --> 00:55:52.440
matter I would indeed before charging

00:55:52.519 --> 00:55:55.000
off into I suppose I speak for the the

00:55:55.079 --> 00:55:56.440
motion the first in but I do have some

00:55:56.519 --> 00:55:58.119
question through yourself to sta if you

00:55:58.199 --> 00:56:00.880
would  the first being in relation to

00:56:00.960 --> 00:56:04.039
table two performance indicators 2021

00:56:04.119 --> 00:56:07.199
2022 to 2023

00:56:07.280 --> 00:56:10.519
2024  and so if that could be directed

00:56:10.599 --> 00:56:12.920
as as you see fit particularly in

00:56:13.000 --> 00:56:16.159
relation to the operating performance

00:56:16.239 --> 00:56:19.480
ratio and The Debt Service cover ratio

00:56:19.559 --> 00:56:21.719
if staff could just make comments in

00:56:21.800 --> 00:56:24.639
relation to those particular metrics

00:56:24.719 --> 00:56:28.280
against the backdrop of previous results

00:56:28.360 --> 00:56:30.800
thank you Council Pauling  I'll go to

00:56:30.880 --> 00:56:34.199
the CFO yeah Mr ladan thank you if I go

00:56:34.280 --> 00:56:36.719
to Mr

00:56:38.760 --> 00:56:42.320
ladan might want to hit your

00:56:42.400 --> 00:56:46.000
buzzer thank you  Mr May through you

00:56:46.079 --> 00:56:50.079
so  with regards to the  operating

00:56:50.159 --> 00:56:52.760
result ratio there has been a slight

00:56:52.840 --> 00:56:56.159
drop versus recent years  that's Prim

00:56:56.239 --> 00:56:59.199
primarily due to  the actual operating

00:56:59.280 --> 00:57:01.119
result itself not being as healthy as it

00:57:01.199 --> 00:57:03.840
was last year or the year before however

00:57:03.920 --> 00:57:05.960
still significantly above the budget

00:57:06.039 --> 00:57:08.519
that we had Set  the reason

00:57:08.599 --> 00:57:10.920
predominantly for that was in the prior

00:57:11.000 --> 00:57:14.760
year there was a  substantial grant

00:57:14.840 --> 00:57:18.400
for  storm water recovery and Roads so

00:57:18.480 --> 00:57:22.599
not storm storm damaged  to roads and

00:57:22.679 --> 00:57:24.800
we had had those two grants each worth

00:57:24.880 --> 00:57:27.400
$4 million predominantly received in the

00:57:27.480 --> 00:57:29.239
prior year but expended in the current

00:57:29.320 --> 00:57:31.840
year that we're signing off on and with

00:57:31.920 --> 00:57:34.480
that  relative difference in that

00:57:34.559 --> 00:57:36.880
Grant income it meant that the prior

00:57:36.960 --> 00:57:40.000
Year's results were boid relative to

00:57:40.079 --> 00:57:42.400
this year being a more normalized result

00:57:42.480 --> 00:57:43.800
and that's why we're seeing a drop

00:57:43.880 --> 00:57:47.639
although still above that Target of zero

00:57:47.719 --> 00:57:50.920
 with regards to the debt cover ratio

00:57:51.000 --> 00:57:54.159
 that  due to the increased

00:57:54.239 --> 00:57:56.679
borrowing costs year- on-ear  in the

00:57:56.760 --> 00:58:00.679
p&amp;l and those borrowing costs are 

00:58:00.760 --> 00:58:03.800
largely due to  the remediation

00:58:03.880 --> 00:58:05.360
provision that we had and the Aftercare

00:58:05.440 --> 00:58:07.320
costs and the way we account for that

00:58:07.400 --> 00:58:10.079
amortization of those Aftercare costs it

00:58:10.159 --> 00:58:11.840
comes in as an interest expense in the

00:58:11.920 --> 00:58:14.360
pnl paired with a slight increase in

00:58:14.440 --> 00:58:16.599
interest rates year onye to give a

00:58:16.679 --> 00:58:19.400
higher interest cost effectively and

00:58:19.480 --> 00:58:22.159
those higher costs of borrowings meant

00:58:22.239 --> 00:58:24.519
that the cover ratio dropped on prior

00:58:24.599 --> 00:58:27.239
years and that would be seen to be a

00:58:27.320 --> 00:58:29.880
one-off with regards to the remediation

00:58:29.960 --> 00:58:31.559
Aftercare costs because we've now taken

00:58:31.639 --> 00:58:33.840
that acral up and wouldn't expect to

00:58:33.920 --> 00:58:36.039
increase it in future years okay cool

00:58:36.119 --> 00:58:38.480
thank you just some additional questions

00:58:38.559 --> 00:58:40.800
through yourself Mr May  just moving

00:58:40.880 --> 00:58:43.599
to the actual financial statements

00:58:43.679 --> 00:58:47.559
themselves  in

00:58:47.639 --> 00:58:50.639
particular first question  primarily

00:58:50.719 --> 00:58:53.440
about  table B

00:58:53.519 --> 00:58:57.599
2-4 it's on page 21 one of mine but I

00:58:57.679 --> 00:58:59.960
don't know if that helps anyone else 

00:59:00.039 --> 00:59:01.840
grants and

00:59:01.920 --> 00:59:04.039
contributions and in

00:59:04.119 --> 00:59:08.199
particular  the I just looking through

00:59:08.280 --> 00:59:10.199
yourself at staff hopefully on the right

00:59:10.280 --> 00:59:13.920
spot table B 2-4 yep cool  and there's

00:59:14.000 --> 00:59:15.519
a footnote there in relation to the

00:59:15.599 --> 00:59:18.039
federal assistance grants and the the

00:59:18.119 --> 00:59:19.360
sequence of that if I've read that

00:59:19.440 --> 00:59:23.519
correctly we've got some of the 2425

00:59:23.599 --> 00:59:27.400
financial assistance money in advance

00:59:27.480 --> 00:59:30.159
is that figure included in the

00:59:30.239 --> 00:59:33.559
Commonwealth funding line of that table

00:59:33.639 --> 00:59:38.280
immediately above that footnote Mr

00:59:39.440 --> 00:59:42.880
ladan through you Mr Man  yes that is

00:59:42.960 --> 00:59:45.199
correct so the predominant funding that

00:59:45.280 --> 00:59:49.119
you see in that table is the 2425 grant

00:59:49.199 --> 00:59:51.599
funding that had been received  a year

00:59:51.679 --> 00:59:54.599
early earlier than that would be

00:59:54.679 --> 00:59:56.840
otherwise received yep okay awesome so

00:59:56.920 --> 00:59:58.679
then followup question through yourself

00:59:58.760 --> 01:00:01.239
Mr May  The Logical conclusion then of

01:00:01.320 --> 01:00:05.000
with a a table value of 19.9 million and

01:00:05.079 --> 01:00:07.000
the 17 million from the the previous

01:00:07.079 --> 01:00:09.480
year is it fair to asse that Less Than

01:00:09.559 --> 01:00:11.679
3 million was received this year from

01:00:11.760 --> 01:00:14.039
federal assistance

01:00:14.119 --> 01:00:16.559
grants Mr

01:00:16.639 --> 01:00:19.519
ladan through you Mr Mayor

01:00:19.599 --> 01:00:23.559
the I suppose the  the the Nuance here

01:00:23.639 --> 01:00:26.960
is that during the 23 24 year for the

01:00:27.039 --> 01:00:30.039
current years accounts  all of that

01:00:30.119 --> 01:00:32.320
Year's money was received in the prior

01:00:32.400 --> 01:00:35.800
fi23 year by some of the

01:00:35.880 --> 01:00:39.039
 sort of the majority of the the 100%

01:00:39.119 --> 01:00:42.039
funding portion was received by some of

01:00:42.119 --> 01:00:43.239
the operating cost that received

01:00:43.320 --> 01:00:45.400
throughout the year and then this year

01:00:45.480 --> 01:00:51.079
we received  85% of the FY 25 results

01:00:51.159 --> 01:00:55.039
in the f24  fiscal year so effectively

01:00:55.119 --> 01:00:56.559
what we're always doing is we're we're a

01:00:56.639 --> 01:00:59.320
year behind where the grants are being

01:00:59.400 --> 01:01:01.599
received at this point in time  and

01:01:01.679 --> 01:01:03.639
this year we expect 15% to be received

01:01:03.719 --> 01:01:08.639
in the 24 25 year of that full 24 so so

01:01:08.719 --> 01:01:10.639
Council polling is if I understand

01:01:10.719 --> 01:01:12.360
correctly it's effectively Revenue

01:01:12.440 --> 01:01:15.440
received in advance yes is that fair y

01:01:15.519 --> 01:01:18.000
thank you Council Pauling Y no cool and

01:01:18.079 --> 01:01:20.280
running Revenue in advance so problem

01:01:20.360 --> 01:01:23.119
created previously Domino is falling and

01:01:23.199 --> 01:01:26.119
back filling all good  thank you Mr

01:01:26.199 --> 01:01:27.639
may just next question again just in

01:01:27.719 --> 01:01:29.480
terms of clarification of where we sit

01:01:29.559 --> 01:01:31.159
and something comes up from time to time

01:01:31.239 --> 01:01:35.719
table B 3-4 depreciation amotization and

01:01:35.800 --> 01:01:39.239
impairment of non-financial

01:01:39.719 --> 01:01:42.599
assets where we have a total

01:01:42.679 --> 01:01:47.760
depreciation and amortization costs of

01:01:47.840 --> 01:01:53.679
76.7 or 78 million  in terms of the

01:01:53.760 --> 01:01:56.440
general ratio and particularly the cash

01:01:56.519 --> 01:01:59.079
a cash depreciation funding model that

01:01:59.159 --> 01:01:59.880
we

01:01:59.960 --> 01:02:03.079
run are we still in line to be a to to

01:02:03.159 --> 01:02:04.880
be sustainable at this level of

01:02:04.960 --> 01:02:06.639
depreciation that's probably the

01:02:06.719 --> 01:02:10.159
question through yourself Mr May Mr

01:02:10.239 --> 01:02:14.559
ladan through you Mr May so we are

01:02:14.639 --> 01:02:16.239
currently going through the September

01:02:16.320 --> 01:02:19.000
review which will include some of these

01:02:19.079 --> 01:02:21.440
 updated figures based on the yearend

01:02:21.519 --> 01:02:24.239
dedications that were processed  I can

01:02:24.320 --> 01:02:28.199
confirm that for the fy2 24 year we did

01:02:28.280 --> 01:02:31.039
put 85% of the depreciation into the

01:02:31.119 --> 01:02:36.000
reserve as we would Target to do  and

01:02:36.079 --> 01:02:37.760
what we're working through now is what

01:02:37.840 --> 01:02:39.840
those implications will be for future

01:02:39.920 --> 01:02:42.719
years and the current years results 

01:02:42.800 --> 01:02:45.440
early indication is that although it's

01:02:45.519 --> 01:02:47.800
tight at the current depreciation levels

01:02:47.880 --> 01:02:51.039
we are able to maintain that within the

01:02:51.119 --> 01:02:54.239
current Year's results  the the

01:02:54.320 --> 01:02:56.679
challenge for us moving forward will be

01:02:56.760 --> 01:02:58.760
to better understand how many further

01:02:58.840 --> 01:03:01.360
dedications we might receive through 

01:03:01.440 --> 01:03:04.599
those development contributions and and

01:03:04.679 --> 01:03:06.920
that that will be the the telling

01:03:07.000 --> 01:03:10.760
sign we will continue to work on

01:03:10.840 --> 01:03:14.000
the the p&amp;l to ensure we target an

01:03:14.079 --> 01:03:18.039
operating ratio of zero or above and 

01:03:18.119 --> 01:03:20.079
as you will see in the November ordinary

01:03:20.159 --> 01:03:23.119
meeting we'll bring forward that  that

01:03:23.199 --> 01:03:26.400
position as of the updated results okay

01:03:26.480 --> 01:03:28.639
councilor Pauling yep thank you  I

01:03:28.719 --> 01:03:29.920
need to ask my questions more quickly as

01:03:30.000 --> 01:03:31.639
I'm running out of time thank you Mr May

01:03:31.719 --> 01:03:33.639
 table

01:03:33.719 --> 01:03:36.840
c18  has a figure of owned investment

01:03:36.920 --> 01:03:40.679
property of 53 million  which

01:03:40.760 --> 01:03:43.679
is lower than I expected I I must say

01:03:43.760 --> 01:03:45.599
particularly against an Investment

01:03:45.679 --> 01:03:47.800
Portfolio of about 400 million give or

01:03:47.880 --> 01:03:49.800
take if staff could just make comments

01:03:49.880 --> 01:03:53.360
in relation to that investment property

01:03:53.440 --> 01:03:56.320
value  per table C

01:03:56.400 --> 01:03:59.400
1-8 particularly against the 400 million

01:03:59.480 --> 01:04:03.320
that we have invested in other

01:04:03.400 --> 01:04:06.480
avenues Mr

01:04:06.559 --> 01:04:09.119
ladan through you Mr

01:04:09.199 --> 01:04:10.679
Mayor

01:04:10.760 --> 01:04:15.280
the that  $54 million correct is

01:04:15.360 --> 01:04:17.960
relatively low compared to our overall

01:04:18.039 --> 01:04:19.119
Investment

01:04:19.199 --> 01:04:22.079
Portfolio when it comes to our options

01:04:22.159 --> 01:04:24.840
to invest with regards to the funds that

01:04:24.920 --> 01:04:26.519
we hold there are a nber of

01:04:26.599 --> 01:04:28.320
restrictions that are placed on us as to

01:04:28.400 --> 01:04:30.679
how we can invest those  any

01:04:30.760 --> 01:04:32.280
Investments that we hold in this space

01:04:32.360 --> 01:04:34.639
are purely from a property Development

01:04:34.719 --> 01:04:37.360
Department perspective not available

01:04:37.440 --> 01:04:39.920
cash on hands whereas we would not have

01:04:40.000 --> 01:04:42.480
the option available to ourselves to to

01:04:42.559 --> 01:04:44.320
invest some of that $300 million you

01:04:44.400 --> 01:04:47.360
find elsewhere into things like property

01:04:47.440 --> 01:04:51.079
and  we're we're tied down fairly 

01:04:51.159 --> 01:04:53.800
restrictively in terms of what the state

01:04:53.880 --> 01:04:55.400
government will allow us to invest in

01:04:55.480 --> 01:04:57.519
and and these sorts of mechanisms are't

01:04:57.599 --> 01:05:00.639
places to do that okay thank you Mr L

01:05:00.719 --> 01:05:02.960
can I just a follow up on Council

01:05:03.039 --> 01:05:05.960
polling's question  one of the

01:05:06.039 --> 01:05:08.199
Paramount one of the Essential Elements

01:05:08.280 --> 01:05:10.400
would be liquidity wouldn't it so

01:05:10.480 --> 01:05:12.280
obviously within investment property

01:05:12.360 --> 01:05:17.679
it's an illiquid asset if you need Li

01:05:17.760 --> 01:05:21.159
treasury Court would ensure that  you

01:05:21.239 --> 01:05:23.960
know liquidity is is effectively

01:05:24.039 --> 01:05:26.880
fundamental to to our

01:05:26.960 --> 01:05:29.679
investments is that is that fair to

01:05:29.760 --> 01:05:32.599
say  Mr Mayor

01:05:32.679 --> 01:05:35.719
the the reasons behind some of these

01:05:35.800 --> 01:05:38.800
investment rules aren't clearly stated

01:05:38.880 --> 01:05:41.199
 we could potentially infer something

01:05:41.280 --> 01:05:43.960
from them however  all we know is that

01:05:44.039 --> 01:05:46.079
the the guidelines we have are fairly

01:05:46.159 --> 01:05:48.559
strict as what we can and can't do I

01:05:48.639 --> 01:05:50.519
wouldn't like to infer why they made

01:05:50.599 --> 01:05:53.400
those rules that way okay thank you

01:05:53.480 --> 01:05:56.440
sorry Council Pauling thank you just

01:05:56.519 --> 01:05:59.440
last comment for me the copy I have 

01:05:59.519 --> 01:06:02.559
has some appears to be tables missing

01:06:02.639 --> 01:06:04.559
for the moment presably I've got

01:06:04.639 --> 01:06:07.960
pre-production copies  that's page 76

01:06:08.039 --> 01:06:10.920
and 77 I've got please uplift council's

01:06:11.000 --> 01:06:13.320
audit report PDF here presing that

01:06:13.400 --> 01:06:14.760
that is because I have a pre-production

01:06:14.840 --> 01:06:17.840
copy and that would be rectified in due

01:06:17.920 --> 01:06:21.039
course  I might defer to the CEO on

01:06:21.119 --> 01:06:22.519
that

01:06:22.599 --> 01:06:27.119
one oh Mr ladan sorry you Mr Mayor 

01:06:27.199 --> 01:06:29.000
those are the audit reports which are

01:06:29.079 --> 01:06:31.400
typically attached by the auditor once

01:06:31.480 --> 01:06:33.639
we have signed the accounts so the the

01:06:33.719 --> 01:06:35.960
process from here would be once the four

01:06:36.039 --> 01:06:37.840
signatures from Council are attached to

01:06:37.920 --> 01:06:40.559
that docent  we will then send that

01:06:40.639 --> 01:06:43.639
to the audit office and they will attach

01:06:43.719 --> 01:06:46.360
 we'll together attach their audit

01:06:46.440 --> 01:06:48.800
report and they signed at the same time

01:06:48.880 --> 01:06:51.920
we sign ours okay cool just on that one

01:06:52.000 --> 01:06:53.760
I'll another followup so my

01:06:53.840 --> 01:06:56.440
understanding is that I'll be signing

01:06:56.519 --> 01:06:59.239
the later this evening as will our

01:06:59.320 --> 01:07:02.559
Deputy Mayor which is normally stock

01:07:02.639 --> 01:07:04.840
standard that's correct Mr Lan that's

01:07:04.920 --> 01:07:07.280
correct Mr Mayor thank you  councel

01:07:07.360 --> 01:07:09.159
Pauling that's it for my questions 

01:07:09.239 --> 01:07:10.840
beyond that I speak in favor of the

01:07:10.920 --> 01:07:12.440
report I went through it fairly tightly

01:07:12.519 --> 01:07:14.039
and there weren't nbers that jped

01:07:14.119 --> 01:07:15.719
out particularly other than those that

01:07:15.800 --> 01:07:17.920
I've raised so in that regard I I

01:07:18.000 --> 01:07:19.920
commend it to fellow counselors thank

01:07:20.000 --> 01:07:23.000
you councilor Pauling 

01:07:23.079 --> 01:07:26.360
councelor or Deputy Mayor ank

01:07:26.440 --> 01:07:28.639
thank you Mr mayor council poing covered

01:07:28.719 --> 01:07:30.559
most of what I was going to query in

01:07:30.639 --> 01:07:32.599
terms of the ratios I just had a bit of

01:07:32.679 --> 01:07:34.639
a niche one in terms of the rates

01:07:34.719 --> 01:07:37.119
outstanding ratio  looking at that

01:07:37.199 --> 01:07:39.440
that seems to be on a bit of an upward

01:07:39.519 --> 01:07:42.159
Trend  while I know we're looking at

01:07:42.239 --> 01:07:45.880
5% Benchmark of 5.53 and a benchmark of

01:07:45.960 --> 01:07:48.920
10 we are still talking $10 million a

01:07:49.000 --> 01:07:50.880
year in that space can I just get some

01:07:50.960 --> 01:07:52.760
comment on the trend whether that's

01:07:52.840 --> 01:07:54.679
volatile historically or whether that is

01:07:54.760 --> 01:07:57.400
trending upward

01:07:57.480 --> 01:07:58.639
 Mr

01:07:58.719 --> 01:08:01.800
ladan through you Mr Mayor  that is

01:08:01.880 --> 01:08:04.119
correct it does seem like an upward tick

01:08:04.199 --> 01:08:07.599
for the year  what I can confirm is

01:08:07.679 --> 01:08:09.880
that because the 30th of June was a

01:08:09.960 --> 01:08:12.400
Sunday payments that had been processed

01:08:12.480 --> 01:08:14.400
in the the day before and the day of

01:08:14.480 --> 01:08:16.880
that final of the year were only

01:08:16.960 --> 01:08:18.760
received into our count on the Monday

01:08:18.840 --> 01:08:20.239
which fell into the following fiscal

01:08:20.319 --> 01:08:24.199
year  and so effectively of that 2% so

01:08:24.279 --> 01:08:25.920
of that 5%

01:08:26.000 --> 01:08:28.800
 1% is a

01:08:28.880 --> 01:08:31.960
 is effectively a slight lag between

01:08:32.039 --> 01:08:35.800
the two years and although that 3 to 5%

01:08:35.880 --> 01:08:37.640
might look like a 2% increase it's much

01:08:37.720 --> 01:08:40.039
more modest as an increase and More in

01:08:40.119 --> 01:08:42.239
line with what we've been seeing in the

01:08:42.319 --> 01:08:43.279
recent

01:08:43.359 --> 01:08:48.159
months okay thank you may  I will just

01:08:48.239 --> 01:08:51.359
make some remarks to to that I think

01:08:51.439 --> 01:08:53.079
generally speaking we are in a in a

01:08:53.159 --> 01:08:55.000
strong position that there are things

01:08:55.079 --> 01:08:56.520
that are challenges I said that earlier

01:08:56.600 --> 01:08:59.079
we have challenges I think all levels of

01:08:59.159 --> 01:09:00.479
all levels of government but local

01:09:00.560 --> 01:09:03.119
government in particular  and we are

01:09:03.199 --> 01:09:05.119
the most forward faing to the community

01:09:05.199 --> 01:09:06.920
they're the first to let us know when we

01:09:07.000 --> 01:09:08.800
haven't built something or haven't fixed

01:09:08.880 --> 01:09:11.880
a pothole but we do have the long-term

01:09:11.960 --> 01:09:14.239
challenges and prioritizing

01:09:14.319 --> 01:09:16.960
sustainability as we go through  the

01:09:17.039 --> 01:09:19.560
next little while in economic time so I

01:09:19.640 --> 01:09:21.319
commend this one to the room but once

01:09:21.399 --> 01:09:23.359
again it comes with the caution that we

01:09:23.439 --> 01:09:26.159
must remain alert  and ensure that we

01:09:26.239 --> 01:09:28.159
remain sustainable into the future thank

01:09:28.239 --> 01:09:31.239
you Mr Mayor thank you deputy mayor

01:09:33.720 --> 01:09:36.560
any further speakers so I might speak

01:09:36.640 --> 01:09:38.239
briefly I want to thank councilor

01:09:38.319 --> 01:09:40.319
Pauling and deputy mayor ancliffe in

01:09:40.399 --> 01:09:41.880
terms of their

01:09:41.960 --> 01:09:45.319
questions  and their interest in

01:09:45.399 --> 01:09:47.760
financial statements  you know it's

01:09:47.840 --> 01:09:50.000
very important in terms of ensuring that

01:09:50.079 --> 01:09:50.880
we've got

01:09:50.960 --> 01:09:54.720
a financially viable Council  in terms

01:09:54.800 --> 01:09:57.520
of the head line nbers so Council

01:09:57.600 --> 01:10:00.880
delivered a $4.1 million

01:10:00.960 --> 01:10:04.199
surplus we had a favorable Returns on

01:10:04.279 --> 01:10:06.760
our investments which helped deliver

01:10:06.840 --> 01:10:09.800
that result that favorable result of a

01:10:09.880 --> 01:10:12.680
$4.1 million surplus there were

01:10:12.760 --> 01:10:15.359
challenges throughout the year 

01:10:15.439 --> 01:10:19.279
notably the increase in the emergency

01:10:19.359 --> 01:10:22.720
services Levy costs as well as the

01:10:22.800 --> 01:10:25.960
reduction in the amount of the financial

01:10:26.039 --> 01:10:28.600
assistance grant Revenue that was

01:10:28.680 --> 01:10:30.800
received in advance which Mr ladan

01:10:30.880 --> 01:10:34.479
referred to earlier  it was pleasing

01:10:34.560 --> 01:10:37.439
to see that  collectively as a council

01:10:37.520 --> 01:10:41.439
we used  more than $41 million in

01:10:41.520 --> 01:10:44.439
development contributions in terms of

01:10:44.520 --> 01:10:48.039
our P our 7-Eleven fundings we we took

01:10:48.119 --> 01:10:50.600
$41 million and we spent that in our

01:10:50.680 --> 01:10:53.039
community which resulted in a net

01:10:53.119 --> 01:10:56.239
decrease of $20 million

01:10:56.319 --> 01:10:59.680
overall  we will continue to look to

01:10:59.760 --> 01:11:02.760
spend our section 711 contributions to

01:11:02.840 --> 01:11:06.399
support the growth of late mcari and our

01:11:06.479 --> 01:11:08.960
residents and it interesting to see

01:11:09.039 --> 01:11:11.479
recently I think that we're one of the

01:11:11.560 --> 01:11:14.960
top five  areas local government areas

01:11:15.039 --> 01:11:17.960
in Australia in terms of net migration

01:11:18.039 --> 01:11:20.720
 internal from within Australia so

01:11:20.800 --> 01:11:22.640
people are flocking to late mcquarry and

01:11:22.720 --> 01:11:25.680
as such we need to ensure that making

01:11:25.760 --> 01:11:27.800
those appropriate investments in our

01:11:27.880 --> 01:11:30.000
city to ensure that we can maintain the

01:11:30.079 --> 01:11:34.279
lifestyle that we all know and enjoy so

01:11:34.359 --> 01:11:38.239
with that  that effectively

01:11:38.319 --> 01:11:41.520

White  yes thank you Mr Mayor I'm

01:14:30.840 --> 01:14:32.760
happy to move and support this

01:14:32.840 --> 01:14:36.439
resolution  I do have  a question or

01:14:36.520 --> 01:14:39.439
two of council staff and  and then

01:14:39.520 --> 01:14:41.800
I'll comment on my support of this

01:14:41.880 --> 01:14:43.720
particular recommendation Mr Mayor thank

01:14:43.800 --> 01:14:47.920
you please  question to staff  I'm

01:14:48.000 --> 01:14:51.199
familiar with other situations similar

01:14:51.279 --> 01:14:53.680
to this in the past where the transfer

01:14:53.760 --> 01:14:56.439
of land has not not necessarily occurred

01:14:56.520 --> 01:14:59.680
within the time frame that the agreement

01:14:59.760 --> 01:15:03.159
states do we have the capacity to

01:15:03.239 --> 01:15:06.319
enforce the agreement in terms of the

01:15:06.399 --> 01:15:09.399
time frame for the transfer of lands

01:15:09.479 --> 01:15:14.760
thank you  Mr hay Mr

01:15:14.840 --> 01:15:19.319
ha  through you Mr Mayor counselors 

01:15:19.399 --> 01:15:21.640
so the the planning agreement 

01:15:21.720 --> 01:15:24.920
included in the  business paper 

01:15:25.000 --> 01:15:27.920
does include  a clause which does

01:15:28.000 --> 01:15:30.319
require  the land to be dedicated

01:15:30.399 --> 01:15:33.039
before development Works can commence on

01:15:33.119 --> 01:15:36.199
the development site at Edgeworth  

01:15:36.279 --> 01:15:37.920
so from my perspective that's a fairly

01:15:38.000 --> 01:15:40.520
strong  indication of of making sure

01:15:40.600 --> 01:15:42.439
that land does come across to council

01:15:42.520 --> 01:15:45.479
within a reasonable time  the planning

01:15:45.560 --> 01:15:48.680
agreement also does reference a 2-year

01:15:48.760 --> 01:15:51.000
time period from the from the time the

01:15:51.079 --> 01:15:53.039
agreement is signed when that  land

01:15:53.119 --> 01:15:55.960
needs to be dedicated  if for whatever

01:15:56.039 --> 01:15:59.159
reason the  those conditions or those

01:15:59.239 --> 01:16:01.199
causes in the pl agreement aren't

01:16:01.279 --> 01:16:03.359
complied with then Council does have the

01:16:03.439 --> 01:16:06.640
ability to  enforce those  through

01:16:06.720 --> 01:16:08.880
going to the land environment

01:16:08.960 --> 01:16:11.359
Court  thank you Mr Mayor that's

01:16:11.439 --> 01:16:14.239
that's very reassuring  and we can

01:16:14.319 --> 01:16:16.479
move forward with this one of the big

01:16:16.560 --> 01:16:19.279
issues in Lake mcquarry is balance

01:16:19.359 --> 01:16:21.239
balance between environment balance

01:16:21.319 --> 01:16:24.079
between providing homes for our citizens

01:16:24.159 --> 01:16:26.119
and the increase need for providing

01:16:26.199 --> 01:16:29.760
homes  to some extent I would look at

01:16:29.840 --> 01:16:32.479
this as being the icing on the cake in

01:16:32.560 --> 01:16:35.399
that we will be receiving developer

01:16:35.479 --> 01:16:38.119
contributions for the estate which is

01:16:38.199 --> 01:16:39.880
not in discussion tonight it's already

01:16:39.960 --> 01:16:41.199
been approved and it's going to be

01:16:41.279 --> 01:16:44.000
happening but this is an additional 

01:16:44.079 --> 01:16:47.479
assistance to the community by providing

01:16:47.560 --> 01:16:50.199
an another piece of land into alur in

01:16:50.279 --> 01:16:52.880
this case  it's nice to see northw

01:16:52.960 --> 01:16:55.239
helping out Westward but that's the way

01:16:55.319 --> 01:16:58.680
a city works and  this particular

01:16:58.760 --> 01:17:01.680
piece of land will then be looked after

01:17:01.760 --> 01:17:03.319
there's an endowment to make sure that

01:17:03.399 --> 01:17:05.399
it's  looked after and and this

01:17:05.479 --> 01:17:07.840
balance is really important for us to

01:17:07.920 --> 01:17:11.119
think about I I have thought about it

01:17:11.199 --> 01:17:14.279
more directly recently  given the fact

01:17:14.359 --> 01:17:16.039
that over a nber of years we've

01:17:16.119 --> 01:17:17.399
received various reports with

01:17:17.479 --> 01:17:20.479
developments indicating that  koala

01:17:20.560 --> 01:17:23.279
habitat may be there but no koalas are

01:17:23.359 --> 01:17:25.439
there and these sorts of things

01:17:25.520 --> 01:17:28.680
 boring anecdote if I may Mr May  a

01:17:28.760 --> 01:17:32.479
few Friday nights ago I had a koala in a

01:17:32.560 --> 01:17:35.359
telegraph pole in the front of my house

01:17:35.439 --> 01:17:37.239
and I had the opportunity during its

01:17:37.319 --> 01:17:40.840
rescue to talk to the wies rescue people

01:17:40.920 --> 01:17:44.119
who were telling me about the nber of

01:17:44.199 --> 01:17:47.760
carcasses fatalities Road kills in the

01:17:47.840 --> 01:17:50.479
corridor between minmi and West walls

01:17:50.560 --> 01:17:52.279
end that they had dealt with in the

01:17:52.359 --> 01:17:54.800
previous week so I'm particularly

01:17:54.880 --> 01:17:59.119
concerned about clearing building houses

01:17:59.199 --> 01:18:01.840
but making sure that we actually do

01:18:01.920 --> 01:18:04.279
preserve the important parts of our

01:18:04.359 --> 01:18:06.880
environment such as koala PR

01:18:06.960 --> 01:18:09.960
preservation and I see the way in which

01:18:10.039 --> 01:18:13.960
developers and Council can cooperate in

01:18:14.039 --> 01:18:16.880
providing pieces of land and hopefully

01:18:16.960 --> 01:18:20.880
perhaps in the future  funds that can

01:18:20.960 --> 01:18:25.920
fund or resource koala protection 

01:18:26.000 --> 01:18:28.680
section within our own Council now that

01:18:28.760 --> 01:18:31.920
this is becoming a seriously emerging

01:18:32.000 --> 01:18:35.079
problem naturally there are going to be

01:18:35.159 --> 01:18:38.319
impacts on the environment and animals

01:18:38.399 --> 01:18:40.199
when land is

01:18:40.279 --> 01:18:43.479
cleared we have to look at the situation

01:18:43.560 --> 01:18:45.359
and make sure that we do what we can to

01:18:45.439 --> 01:18:48.319
mitigate the problems that may be

01:18:48.399 --> 01:18:51.560
created we don't always get it right but

01:18:51.640 --> 01:18:53.920
recognizing that there is an emerging

01:18:54.000 --> 01:18:56.079
problem gives us the opportunity to make

01:18:56.159 --> 01:18:58.119
sure that we do a better job at it thank

01:18:58.199 --> 01:19:02.800
you Mr Mayor thank you councilor Adam

01:19:02.880 --> 01:19:06.479
White Council Swinsburg thanks Mr Mayor

01:19:06.560 --> 01:19:08.119
I just got one question for staff if I

01:19:08.199 --> 01:19:10.520
could  and for the benefit of the

01:19:10.600 --> 01:19:13.640
residents particularly in teralba so the

01:19:13.720 --> 01:19:18.000
once the land at five caraval  place

01:19:18.079 --> 01:19:20.319
or Street I should say is transferred to

01:19:20.399 --> 01:19:22.359
council firstly what is the current

01:19:22.439 --> 01:19:25.359
zoning and what will be the future

01:19:25.439 --> 01:19:27.760
zoning intention in order to ensure the

01:19:27.840 --> 01:19:30.000
land doesn't become

01:19:30.079 --> 01:19:32.439
underdevelopment thank

01:19:32.520 --> 01:19:37.399
you Mr H  through you Mr Mayor

01:19:37.479 --> 01:19:40.079
counselors  so the current zone of

01:19:40.159 --> 01:19:44.399
that parle of land at teralba is  re1

01:19:44.479 --> 01:19:46.359
Public public

01:19:46.439 --> 01:19:49.319
Recreation  and the intention for for

01:19:49.399 --> 01:19:51.199
the land after or if and when the

01:19:51.279 --> 01:19:54.800
planning agreement is entered into  is

01:19:54.880 --> 01:19:57.399
for staff to include that site in a

01:19:57.479 --> 01:19:59.960
future administrative amendment to our

01:20:00.039 --> 01:20:03.239
local environmental plan  to apply a

01:20:03.319 --> 01:20:05.640
suitable conservation Zone consistent

01:20:05.720 --> 01:20:08.319
with  the the main purpose of the

01:20:08.399 --> 01:20:09.960
planning

01:20:10.039 --> 01:20:12.680
agreement Council Swinsburg thanks Mr

01:20:12.760 --> 01:20:16.000
May thank

01:20:16.560 --> 01:20:20.000
you councilor Pauling thank you Mr Mayor

01:20:20.079 --> 01:20:22.199
 just following up on a few questions

01:20:22.279 --> 01:20:23.880
and threads from both the councilors

01:20:23.960 --> 01:20:27.439
that spoken pre previously in terms of

01:20:27.520 --> 01:20:29.279
deadline I think I'm probably less

01:20:29.359 --> 01:20:31.680
easily satisfied than Council Adam but

01:20:31.760 --> 01:20:33.640
my reading of this is that they can't go

01:20:33.720 --> 01:20:35.960
ahead with their development until the

01:20:36.039 --> 01:20:38.479
land is dedicated or they'll be blocked

01:20:38.560 --> 01:20:41.199
at time of  construction certificate

01:20:41.279 --> 01:20:43.159
presably as well the way it reads

01:20:43.239 --> 01:20:44.720
however if they don't go ahead with the

01:20:44.800 --> 01:20:46.800
development it would be fair to say that

01:20:46.880 --> 01:20:49.159
the dedication need never happen either

01:20:49.239 --> 01:20:52.199
there is no Sunset Clause to force this

01:20:52.279 --> 01:20:54.760
into Council hands is that fair

01:20:54.840 --> 01:20:57.199
representation through yourself Mr Mayor

01:20:57.279 --> 01:20:59.399
Mr

01:20:59.479 --> 01:21:03.880
H  through you Mr Mayor  Council

01:21:03.960 --> 01:21:05.960
poing you are correct if they do want to

01:21:06.039 --> 01:21:07.439
proceed with the development on the

01:21:07.520 --> 01:21:10.039
Edgeworth site that the land needs to be

01:21:10.119 --> 01:21:12.000
dedicated before they physically

01:21:12.079 --> 01:21:13.000
commence

01:21:13.079 --> 01:21:16.560
Works  if they don't choose to proceed

01:21:16.640 --> 01:21:18.880
with the development for whatever reason

01:21:18.960 --> 01:21:20.720
the planning agreement also contains a

01:21:20.800 --> 01:21:22.680
clause that within 2 years of the

01:21:22.760 --> 01:21:24.800
planning agreement being entered into

01:21:24.880 --> 01:21:28.359
that land is to be dedicated to

01:21:28.439 --> 01:21:31.800
council councilor Pauling any further

01:21:31.880 --> 01:21:33.720
questions yes no there are following up

01:21:33.800 --> 01:21:36.960
on that  so in terms of have we just

01:21:37.039 --> 01:21:39.319
in the statement just then  in

01:21:39.399 --> 01:21:41.159
relation to the clarification about

01:21:41.239 --> 01:21:44.000
timing when do we've reach that point of

01:21:44.079 --> 01:21:46.840
no return where within two years of what

01:21:46.920 --> 01:21:49.600
date do we estimate that that transfer

01:21:49.680 --> 01:21:52.399
should occur through yourself Mr May Mr

01:21:52.479 --> 01:21:55.840
hay  through you Mr to May counselors

01:21:55.920 --> 01:21:58.439
so the the date that that 2-year period

01:21:58.520 --> 01:22:01.520
is measured from would be the date of 

01:22:01.600 --> 01:22:04.359
development consent issued for the

01:22:04.439 --> 01:22:06.039
development site at

01:22:06.119 --> 01:22:08.399
Edgeworth yep once again followup

01:22:08.479 --> 01:22:11.479
question in terms of are we at that

01:22:11.560 --> 01:22:13.640
stage for that block at this point and

01:22:13.720 --> 01:22:16.920
if so when will that  application be

01:22:17.000 --> 01:22:19.840
submitted if

01:22:19.920 --> 01:22:25.000
ever Mr H  through you Mr Mayor so

01:22:25.079 --> 01:22:27.560
 the application for  the

01:22:27.640 --> 01:22:30.319
subdivision of the site at Edgeworth has

01:22:30.399 --> 01:22:31.720
been received by Council and we've

01:22:31.800 --> 01:22:33.399
assessed that we're very close to being

01:22:33.479 --> 01:22:34.840
able to issue

01:22:34.920 --> 01:22:38.079
determination the  planning agreement

01:22:38.159 --> 01:22:39.600
or entering into the planning agreement

01:22:39.680 --> 01:22:42.880
is the final piece of the  the

01:22:42.960 --> 01:22:47.199
assessment  so the date of

01:22:47.279 --> 01:22:51.079
determination  will be soon  if

01:22:51.159 --> 01:22:52.920
Council does choose to enter into the

01:22:53.000 --> 01:22:55.920
planning agreement and that's the date

01:22:56.000 --> 01:22:57.680
on which the 2-year period will be

01:22:57.760 --> 01:22:59.800
measured from awesome thank you that's

01:22:59.880 --> 01:23:00.920
far more positive than I thought it

01:23:01.000 --> 01:23:02.720
might be thank thank you just star from

01:23:02.800 --> 01:23:06.119
that one U next question is

01:23:06.199 --> 01:23:09.720
761,00 enough in perpetuity and and I

01:23:09.800 --> 01:23:12.159
asked that in the question of is this or

01:23:12.239 --> 01:23:14.159
how is this an asset for Council I

01:23:14.239 --> 01:23:15.680
understand the the environmental

01:23:15.760 --> 01:23:18.039
ecological value absolutely the bio

01:23:18.119 --> 01:23:20.680
offset value that I understand in terms

01:23:20.760 --> 01:23:23.119
of potential fin Financial impact on

01:23:23.199 --> 01:23:25.319
Council now or at some point in the

01:23:25.399 --> 01:23:29.000
future presably illegal dping

01:23:29.079 --> 01:23:30.359
potentially even current owner put some

01:23:30.439 --> 01:23:32.520
stuff there that's not so friendly 

01:23:32.600 --> 01:23:34.840
Council somehow becomes the owner 

01:23:34.920 --> 01:23:36.520
through the dedication we're required to

01:23:36.600 --> 01:23:40.199
clean it up or maintain it is 761,00

01:23:40.279 --> 01:23:44.119
enough and how sure are we of that

01:23:44.199 --> 01:23:46.640
through yourself Mr Mayor Mr

01:23:46.720 --> 01:23:50.920
H  through you Mr Mayor counselors 

01:23:51.000 --> 01:23:53.359
so firstly there's a clause in the

01:23:53.439 --> 01:23:55.039
planning agreement with which 

01:23:55.119 --> 01:23:56.960
specifies the condition of the land

01:23:57.039 --> 01:23:59.640
needs to be in before  we'll accept

01:23:59.720 --> 01:24:03.119
that dedication   free from

01:24:03.199 --> 01:24:05.920
contamination  free from rubbish 

01:24:06.000 --> 01:24:08.479
those sorts of things  and secondly

01:24:08.560 --> 01:24:09.720
your question

01:24:09.800 --> 01:24:12.520
about  the amount of the endowment

01:24:12.600 --> 01:24:17.600
fund  so we have  calculated that

01:24:17.680 --> 01:24:20.960
amount based on  a methodology that

01:24:21.039 --> 01:24:23.720
the state government  uses and also

01:24:23.800 --> 01:24:25.560
our own

01:24:25.640 --> 01:24:28.560
 personal experience and expertise in

01:24:28.640 --> 01:24:30.039
understanding what works are typically

01:24:30.119 --> 01:24:32.399
needed in order to manage and maintain

01:24:32.479 --> 01:24:34.800
land over the long period okay y cool

01:24:34.880 --> 01:24:37.439
thank you coun paing one last question

01:24:37.520 --> 01:24:39.479
 once again noting as the report notes

01:24:39.560 --> 01:24:42.640
that there is  a contiguous 

01:24:42.720 --> 01:24:44.640
physical situation between this and land

01:24:44.720 --> 01:24:47.079
that Council already owns the intention

01:24:47.159 --> 01:24:49.439
of the land that Council already owns is

01:24:49.520 --> 01:24:51.199
that essentially green zone in

01:24:51.279 --> 01:24:53.880
perpetuity as well and that makes this

01:24:53.960 --> 01:24:56.279
combin parcel more attractive once again

01:24:56.359 --> 01:25:00.359
through yourself Mr May Mr H  through

01:25:00.439 --> 01:25:03.880
you Mr Mayor  the land and I might

01:25:03.960 --> 01:25:07.439
just bring the

01:25:11.319 --> 01:25:16.439
map  so the the land to the South 

01:25:16.520 --> 01:25:19.000
West  which looks like a a corridor

01:25:19.079 --> 01:25:21.439
between two roads that's  land that

01:25:21.520 --> 01:25:25.520
Council owns  as part of   natural

01:25:25.600 --> 01:25:27.960
water course and drainage

01:25:28.039 --> 01:25:31.720
Reserve  and the land to adjoining the

01:25:31.800 --> 01:25:35.840
the area in red immediately to the

01:25:35.920 --> 01:25:38.640
Northwest  is land that's already been

01:25:38.720 --> 01:25:41.600
dedicated to council for the purpose of

01:25:41.680 --> 01:25:44.239
 conservation okay cool thank you very

01:25:44.319 --> 01:25:46.680
much that that's all thank you and in

01:25:46.760 --> 01:25:49.039
that regard Mr Mayor I speak in favor of

01:25:49.119 --> 01:25:51.159
of this motion thank you thank you

01:25:51.239 --> 01:25:55.039
councelor Pauling

01:25:55.319 --> 01:25:57.479
councilor Schultz thank you mayor Schultz

01:25:57.560 --> 01:25:59.760
I've got one or two questions as well

01:25:59.840 --> 01:26:01.920
for the staff it's just around the

01:26:02.000 --> 01:26:04.960
transport orientated developments and

01:26:05.039 --> 01:26:07.760
because of the proximity to burgle and

01:26:07.840 --> 01:26:10.399
teralba stations are they outside of

01:26:10.479 --> 01:26:13.079
that zone and therefore this will not be

01:26:13.159 --> 01:26:16.960
impacted potentially by

01:26:17.439 --> 01:26:21.399
that over to you Mr Hayne again 

01:26:21.479 --> 01:26:25.000
through you Mr Mayor 

01:26:25.079 --> 01:26:28.359
I'm fairly confident that this site is

01:26:28.439 --> 01:26:31.680
outside of the  transport orientated

01:26:31.760 --> 01:26:34.199
development SE area which is 400 met

01:26:34.279 --> 01:26:37.920
from a train station  and besides that

01:26:38.000 --> 01:26:40.960
the the  Provisions in that transport

01:26:41.039 --> 01:26:43.159
orientated development set only apply to

01:26:43.239 --> 01:26:45.319
residential land  and this is not

01:26:45.399 --> 01:26:46.640
residential

01:26:46.720 --> 01:26:50.039
land Council

01:26:51.520 --> 01:26:55.760
Schultz thank you

01:26:56.079 --> 01:26:58.159
counselors there doesn't appear to be

01:26:58.239 --> 01:27:00.439
any further questions or anyone looking

01:27:00.520 --> 01:27:02.000
for the

01:27:02.079 --> 01:27:04.880
call on that note I will go back to

01:27:04.960 --> 01:27:06.560
councilor Adam th if you'd like to

01:27:06.640 --> 01:27:08.640
exercise your right of

01:27:08.720 --> 01:27:12.520
reply  just very briefly Mr Mayor 

01:27:12.600 --> 01:27:14.960
thank you to the councils for asking the

01:27:15.039 --> 01:27:18.199
questions about this matter and not only

01:27:18.279 --> 01:27:21.359
does it clarify Us in this room but the

01:27:21.439 --> 01:27:24.319
answers that we now have clarify the

01:27:24.399 --> 01:27:26.359
process going forward for the community

01:27:26.439 --> 01:27:28.560
as well I would encourage councilors to

01:27:28.640 --> 01:27:30.600
support this particular recommendation

01:27:30.680 --> 01:27:32.600

notices of motion we have one this

01:30:38.159 --> 01:30:43.119
evening it is 24

01:30:43.199 --> 01:30:49.239
nm6 companion animals advisory

01:30:49.319 --> 01:30:51.199
committee 

01:30:51.279 --> 01:30:55.640
counselor Adam are you

01:30:55.720 --> 01:30:57.800
oh councel

01:30:57.880 --> 01:31:02.199
Adam sorry councelor Pauling oh Adam

01:31:02.279 --> 01:31:03.880
councelor Adam th sorry I'm just getting

01:31:03.960 --> 01:31:07.800
mixed up here oh  sorry Mr M I I was

01:31:07.880 --> 01:31:09.880
waiting go second I I was going to

01:31:09.960 --> 01:31:12.199
suggest an amendment but I'm not sure

01:31:12.279 --> 01:31:16.479
how that works  so that  the the

01:31:16.560 --> 01:31:20.680
part C would be appoints Council Pauling

01:31:20.760 --> 01:31:23.119
to the committee I think that's a great

01:31:23.199 --> 01:31:25.199
Amendment rather rather than having two

01:31:25.279 --> 01:31:29.079
separate stages I think one would be an

01:31:29.159 --> 01:31:31.680
ideal situation but I'm not sure I know

01:31:31.760 --> 01:31:34.159
notices a motion or a little bit funnier

01:31:34.239 --> 01:31:38.760
okay  so that's an alternate motion or

01:31:38.840 --> 01:31:40.199
you comfortable with that or would you

01:31:40.279 --> 01:31:43.479
like to move your

01:31:51.479 --> 01:31:55.840
original you to AC

01:31:56.079 --> 01:31:59.760
so we have it moved by councilor Pauling

01:31:59.840 --> 01:32:02.000
 with a bit of a steer from Council

01:32:02.079 --> 01:32:05.720
adamthe who has seconded it and I have

01:32:05.800 --> 01:32:09.279
the CEO nodding in approval  so that

01:32:09.359 --> 01:32:10.439
works for

01:32:10.520 --> 01:32:12.920
everybody  councilor Pauling would you

01:32:13.000 --> 01:32:17.159
like to speak to the motion very briefly

01:32:17.239 --> 01:32:18.680
 I think the background captures this

01:32:18.760 --> 01:32:21.600
fairly well but we have a very large

01:32:21.680 --> 01:32:24.039
nber of companion animals in our city

01:32:24.119 --> 01:32:27.119
so well in excess of 100,000 so for a a

01:32:27.199 --> 01:32:28.840
city with a population of just over

01:32:28.920 --> 01:32:32.880
200,000 there are well over a 100,000

01:32:32.960 --> 01:32:36.359
companion animals  through the most

01:32:36.439 --> 01:32:38.359
recent election there are some questions

01:32:38.439 --> 01:32:40.800
and situations put to me  that struck

01:32:40.880 --> 01:32:44.840
a bit of a nerve and in that regard it

01:32:44.920 --> 01:32:47.800
 I suppose provoked me to wanting to

01:32:47.880 --> 01:32:49.920
reinvigorate the companion animals

01:32:50.000 --> 01:32:51.279
committee it was a committee that we had

01:32:51.359 --> 01:32:53.880
previously but disbanded  which which

01:32:53.960 --> 01:32:56.159
I understand certainly in the context I

01:32:56.239 --> 01:32:58.560
hope to do a far better job of that this

01:32:58.640 --> 01:33:00.279
time  I think a little bit older a

01:33:00.359 --> 01:33:02.279
little bit wiser I'm confident that it

01:33:02.359 --> 01:33:04.279
can contribute positively into the

01:33:04.359 --> 01:33:06.479
future in that regard I hope that other

01:33:06.560 --> 01:33:08.800
counselors  support the motion thank

01:33:08.880 --> 01:33:12.359
you Mr me thank you councelor

01:33:12.439 --> 01:33:16.199
Pauling  councelor Adam way  yes

01:33:16.279 --> 01:33:18.000
thank you Mr me I I think Council

01:33:18.079 --> 01:33:19.920
Pauling is being a bit modest I know

01:33:20.000 --> 01:33:23.079
that since he has been on Council he has

01:33:23.159 --> 01:33:25.119
 considered this is an important issue

01:33:25.199 --> 01:33:28.359
and has been on and chaired the previous

01:33:28.439 --> 01:33:31.600
companion animals committee and  I

01:33:31.680 --> 01:33:33.840
think that he's pointed out the

01:33:33.920 --> 01:33:37.680
importance of this to our city and  we

01:33:37.760 --> 01:33:39.600
concern ourselves with the environment

01:33:39.680 --> 01:33:41.359
we concern ourselves with people we

01:33:41.439 --> 01:33:44.359
concern ourselves with buildings roads

01:33:44.439 --> 01:33:46.239
and we also concern ourselves with

01:33:46.319 --> 01:33:48.239
companion animals because it's an

01:33:48.319 --> 01:33:50.520
important part of many people's lives

01:33:50.600 --> 01:33:52.880
and I thank councelor Pauling for moving

01:33:52.960 --> 01:33:54.359
this resolution

01:33:54.439 --> 01:33:56.000
and I feel he'll be just the right

01:33:56.079 --> 01:33:58.439
person to steer this in the future thank

01:33:58.520 --> 01:34:01.760
you Mr Mayor thank you councelor

01:34:01.840 --> 01:34:05.600

01:34:08.399 --> 01:34:12.119
passion and advocacy for the companion

01:34:12.199 --> 01:34:15.239
animals advisory committee I recall I

01:34:15.319 --> 01:34:17.840

01:34:20.479 --> 01:34:23.720
thoroughly enjoyed the companion animals

01:34:23.800 --> 01:34:27.239

01:34:27.319 --> 01:34:30.079
Council Pauling  you know doing what

01:34:30.159 --> 01:34:32.439
he loves to do and that's advocate for

01:34:32.520 --> 01:34:34.920
the community and and and step forward

01:34:35.000 --> 01:34:38.720
