Item Number: 9.1.2 Subject: Request for a Facility Hire Grant and

Donation - Domestic Violence Prevention Promotion (12 or 13 of May 2017 –

Anglicare WA) Reporting Officer: Director Corporate Services – Lloyd Barton



2.0 Matter for Consideration 2.1 An application from Anglicare WA (Family and Domestic Violence Service)

for a donation and grant totalling $2,602 to cover the costs of a domestic violence prevention promotion to be held at the Oval on the evening of the

12 or 13 May, 2017 and for the promotion of a local band “Kimberley Gold”.

2.2 Ms Deborah Dicks, Family and Domestic Violence Practitioner – Anglicare WA has requested to speak to Council in support of the application.

3.0 Background & Comments

3.1 The donation and grant requested totalling $2,602, comprises:

A grant of $567.00 to cover the cost of hiring the Oval lights, toilet and rubbish bins (x9); and

a donation of $1000 to pay the cost of the band Kimberley Gold providing entertainment through-out the evening

a $600 donation to put towards food for a free feed

a $400 donation for a sign (3m x 1.5m) proposed to be erected in the Shire Park to promote the band and their recent award at the

Tamworth Country Music Festival and the prevention of domestic violence

a donation of $35.00 for a food stall holders permit

3.2 Deborah Dicks, Family and Domestic Violence Practitioner for Anglicare WA is

organising the event to be held from 8.00pm to 11.00pm on the 12th or 13th May following afternoon football games. The event is a joint initiative between the Anglicare WA and the East Kimberley Football League (EKFL) to

promote the prevention of domestic violence. All the teams in the EKFL will be travelling to Halls Creek and play at the Oval on these two days.

3.3 Ms Dicks also sees this as “an opportune time to pay our congratulations to

the Kimberley Gold Band with a free concert and possibly a feed for the

community”. This stems from the band’s recent success in winning the “People’s Choice in Country Music Busking Award” at the 2017 Tamworth

Country Music Festival.

Page 6 of 196


3.4 In addition to the actual event, Ms Dicks is also seeking $400 for the cost of a 3m x 1.5m sign to promote/congratulate the Kimberley Gold band. Ms

Dicks states that “I would like to see the Shire use this sign to place in the Shire Park during the tourist season to promote the band and award which

will add to tourism for Halls Creek”. The sign is to be made of fence mesh and will have a picture of the band and words of congratulation.

Ms Dicks has also advised that Anglicare Family and Domestic Violence Service (AFDVS) does not have any funds to assist with the event and relies

on support and donations from local services. She has advised AFDS will report back to Shire on actual expenditure should the application be successful.

3.5 Approving the grant and donation for the actual event (to be held on the 12th

or 13th May) is supported by the Halls Creek Strategic Community Plan, 2015 as outlined in Section 6 below. This aspect of the application is supported by the reporting officer.

3.6 Approving the $400 donation for the cost of a sign to promote the band and

the prevention of domestic violence at the Shire Park is not supported by the reporting officer. This because:

The Director - Health and Regulatory Service has confirmed that the

sign will require planning approval. While a formal assessment would

follow the lodging of an application it appears that the chance of the proposal receiving a positive recommendation is slim.

Council should be wary of a proliferation of signs on Council reserves.

The link between the sign and preventing domestic violence, tourism or any other wider community benefit is not well explained.

Ms Dicks infers that the Shire should be involved in the use of the sign.

The details of this and what Shire resources she expects are not

explained.

3.7 Correspondence from Ms Dicks giving further details of her application and the community benefits of the proposal are contained in Appendix 1.

4.0 Statutory Environment - Nil

5.0 Strategic Implications

6.1 The following objective, outcome and strategy of the Halls Creek Strategic Community Plan are relevant:

Objective: 1. Social: Vibrant and connected communities. We support cultural and

language diversity.

Council Discretionary Donations in the current financial year. These budgets have a current balance of $3,310 and $13,700 respectively. If

approved, the grant and donation, totalling $2,062 will be sourced from these funds.

8.0 Sustainability Implications

Environmental There are no significant identifiable environmental impacts arising from adoption of the officer’s recommendation.

Economic

There are no significant identifiable economic impacts arising from adoption of the officer’s recommendation.

Social There are no significant identifiable social impacts arising from adoption of the

officer’s recommendation.

Page 8 of 196


Risk

The risk is assessed as minor with the control of the event being covered by standard processes.


That the application be granted in part to the extent that:

1. A grant of $567 and a donation of $1,635 to Anglicare WA Family and

Domestic Violence Service be approved. This is to cover the cost of:

hiring the Oval lights, toilet and rubbish bins (x9); the band Kimberley Gold providing entertainment through-out the evening; a contribution

towards food for a free feed and a food stall holders permit in relation to the domestic violence prevention promotion to be held at the Oval on the evening of the 12 or 13 of May, 2017.

2. The request for a donation of $400 for a sign to promote the band

Kimberley Gold and the prevention of family violence proposed to be erected in the Shire Park be declined due to the uncertainty in relation to

the obtaining of the necessary planning consent, the undesirability of having a proliferation of signs in Shire Parks and the lack of evidence in relation to the community benefit of erecting the sign.

3. Anglicare WA (Family and Domestic Violence Service) is to acquit the donation by a letter to the Chief Executive Officer within 2 months of holding the event to confirm that the event has been held, the

expenditure and approximate number of people attending.

1. Correspondence from Deborah Dicks – Family and Domestic Violence Practitioner

Page 9 of 196


Dear Councillors I was so very fortunate and grateful to be present in Tamworth recently for the 2017 Tamworth Country Music Festival. I had the very special privilege to be present when our band of four local indigenous men who comprise the band Kimberley Gold were busking in the streets and hotels during the week. The band drew enormous crowds everywhere they played and packed out the hotels to people singing along and dancing to their music. Everyone loved them and I think they enjoyed the well-deserved praise that they received from people from all over Australia who were visiting that week. I also did my little bit of PR and made sure that everyone in Tamworth knew that the band had travelled all the way from our town of Halls Creek and we certainly did a good job of putting Halls Creek on the map with the locals and tourists. As the band delighted so many people during the 10 days they were there, they were chosen as one of the finalists to play on the big stage of Bicentennial Toyota Park on the last night of the festival where the Top 10 Buskers were competing. This is what they had to say about the band after the event :

Western Australian line-up Kimberley Gold said they would put their small town on the map for all

the right reasons – and boy, did they deliver. From a bop-along country tune to shaking 60s rock,

the rockers from WA had the crowd at Bicentennial Park on its feet.

The band were named People’s Choice in the Country Music Busking Finals in their very first year at competing at the festival together. What an amazing fete for a group of men who do not even read or write music.

I would like to see the Halls Creek Shire recognise the band’s contribution to country music and congratulate the band on their magnificent achievement. The band went to Tamworth to make their first ever recording and it is hoped that they will have a cd coming out in a few months time.

Further to this, as you are all aware, I am also the Domestic Violence Worker in Halls Creek and have recently been elected as the Domestic Violence Co-Ordinator for the East Kimberley Football League for this coming season. I have been working alongside the EKFL to have a date set on the football fixtures dedicated to domestic violence and this date has been set as Friday 12th and Saturday 13th May when all of the teams in the EKFL will be travelling to Halls Creek and all games will be played here over the Friday evening and Saturday.

This would be an opportune time to pay our congratulations to the Kimberley Gold Band after the football matches with a free concert and possibly a feed for the community. There will be 12 teams of footballers from as far as Kununurra, Wyndham, Ringer Soak, Warmun, Bow River, Mulan, Balgo and Billiluna together with our own local teams. It is also the opening of the tourist season and there should be plenty of tourists who could come along to enjoy the evening as well. It may also coincide with the release of the band’s new cd which would be fantastic.

I would like the Council to give consideration to my request and all that I would ask for is that the Shire of Halls Creek outlay the expense for the band which would be $1,000 and a contribution towards a sign to congratulate them on their award and possibly some food for the community. I will also endeavour to seek support from the local businesses around this.

I hope you look favourably upon my request as I believe it is not every day that we have homegrown talent that achieves such greatness and I feel this should be rewarded.

Regards

Hi Lloyd I refer to your earlier email dated 20th February, 2017 and would like to advise on the points that require clarification as follows :

The $1,000 I am seeking for the band is the fee that the band charges for each appearance. At other events that I have organised and asked them to play at, this has been their fee for the evening. All of the members of the band live locally so there is no travel, accommodation or meals required. The band members are included in the free feed that is normally put on for the community. There are several other bands who play in Halls Creek and their appearance fees are at least $1,500 per performance.

I am seeking an additional amount to put towards a sign which is to be made congratulating the band on their award from Tamworth. I would like to see the Shire use this sign to place in the Shire Park during the tourist season to promote the band and the award which will add to tourism for Halls Creek. The sign is to be made of fence mesh which will allow the breeze to flow through and will have a picture of the band and words of congratulation. The sign will cost approximately $400. The sign, which will be approximately 3m and 1.5 m, can then also be used at the Domestic Violence football event as well.

I also seek an additional amount of $600 to put towards food for a free feed for the community. I am hoping that the feed will consist of either hot beef and gravy or hot chicken rolls. I will also be asking for support from other local businesses for bottles of water to also give away to the community on the night. The event I organised for White Ribbon Day last year saw in excess of 300 people attend and provided with a free feed. I anticipate in excess of 500 people attending the football event with teams from all of the surrounding communities of Halls Creek being in attendance on the Saturday night for when I would require the food. I would like to ask the Shire for a grant to cover the permit for the food also.

As I discussed with you, the night of the planned event, Saturday 13th May, is being run in conjunction with the East Kimberley Football League. As I understand, the EKFL has arrangements in place for the hire of the Town Oval for fixtured games of football throughout the 2017 season, including this date. This specific fixtured event has been dedicated to domestic violence by the EKFL and the band and community feed are to be hosted after the football finishes. As the EKFL is already hiring the oval, lights and toilets, am I still required to complete these forms. If so, I would ask in my request to the Shire for a grant to hire these facilities as this is a not-for-profit community event which will bring communities and hundreds of people together in Halls Creek.

As mentioned, the EKFL is already hiring the facility so will I still be required to pay the bond?

The Anglicare Family and Domestic Violence Service does not have any funds to assist with this event and relies on the ongoing support and donations from local services and people to hold events such as this which benefit many local and out of town people.

If I am successful with my request, the donation can be paid to Anglicare WA and can then be distributed to the relevant parties.

With any community development event that I plan and hold, I have reporting requirements to Anglicare WA, the Department for the Attorney General and Royalties for Regions about

Page 12 of 196


the success of the event. The event will also be covered by media and newspapers to promote the event and sponsors. I can also report back to the Shire as to the expenditure if I am successful in obtaining this donation.

I hope this clarifies things a bit better. Please let me know if there is anything else you require from me to enable this request to be put before the Council meeting on the 16th March. If I need to complete any forms, please let me know as soon as possible. Regards Debbie Dicks Family and Domestic Violence Practitioner Anglicare 88 Thomas Street HALLS CREEK WA 6770 Ph : (08) 9163 7302 Fax : (08) 9168 6297 Mobile : 0428 171215 Email : [email protected] Web : www.anglicarewa.org.au

Item Number: 9.1.3

Subject: Talkabt - Free Public Wi-Fi Promotion &

Usage

Reporting Officers: Economic Development Manager – Matt

Hobson




2.1 Report regarding Talkabt – the Shire’s free public Wi-Fi, supported by Tourism WA.

3.0 Background

3.1 Talkabt went live in Halls Creek Travel and Tourism Centre and in the Shire Park in April 2016. Except for a 1 week period when a fault occurred, it has been operating 24 hours a day, seven days per week

(24/7) for ten months. Talkabt has both social and economic objectives and outcomes (see Strategic Implications).

3.2 At its meeting on 18 August 2016, Council resolved:

9.2.1 Talkabt - Free Public Wi-Fi Promotion & Usage That:

1. Public access to Talkabt Free Wi-Fi remain 24/7. 2. The use of Talkabt free public Wi-Fi will be reviewed every 6 months and if

any negative community or social issues are identified the matter be reported to Council.

3.3 The use of Talkabt has been reviewed. While no negative community or

social issues are identified this report provides and update on: - How Talkabt is being promoted so that visitors and locals are aware

of this free service. - Statistics on user numbers, times and where users come from.

4.0 Comments

How Talkabt is being promoted 4.1 Talkabt has been promoted so that visitors and the community are aware

of it in a variety of ways including;

travel and tourism social media press releases

information screens in the post office and hospital PRK Radio through the Shire President and CEO

Page 16 of 196


stickers on the town entry signs to inform anyone entering town that there is free Wi-Fi available (Figure 4.1 below)

4 x signs around the Travel & Tourism Centre and Shire Park (Figure 4.2 & 4.3 below).

Figure 4.1 – Welcome to Halls Creek Figure 4.2 – Shire Park Figure 4.3 – Tourism Centre

Statistics on user numbers, times and where users come from.

4.2 Below are the statistics for Talkabt use since it went live (on 27 April 2016) to the 22 February 2017, being a 10 month period.

Hours of use

4.3 As seen in the table below, most of the use (more than 90%) is between 7am and 8pm. The most use is between 9am to 12 mid-day and 5pm to

7pm. There is very little use late at night (each session being a log on and log off) between 11pm and 6am over the ten month period. Out of a total of 23,964 sessions only 665 (less than 3%) occurred between 11pm

and 6am.

Table 4.1 – Sessions by time of day

4.4 Over the ten months there were 23,964 sessions in total from 5,871 users. This shows that there are a lot of users using Talkabt on an

ongoing basis. As you can see in the table below the average session time is 25 minutes, 6 seconds. Calculating the number of sessions and average session time Talkabt Wi-Fi has been used the equivalent of every

minute of every day for more than 415 days.

Page 17 of 196


Table 4.2 Total Users

4.5 After a slow start the number of users has been constantly increasing. The

stickers on the Town Entry Signs and the large signs in the Shire Park

were put up at the same time these statistics were generated. This enhanced promotion of this public service is likely to see an increase in

users.

4.6 The number of sessions has continued to grow over the wet season

(except for a small decline around Christmas) which indicates a positive take-up from the local population. As you can see in the table below the

service was down for about one week in mid-October. This was due to IT network failing to re-configure after a power cut. It took some time to

identify which aspect of the IT system needed to be re-configured manually.

Table 4.3 Increase in Users

4.7 As part of the login process users are prompted to provide their postcode and country of origin. This is intended to collect data that can be used for future marketing, strategic planning and grant applications. The reliability

of this data is dependent on the accuracy of the information entered by users. Therefore it should be treated as indicative rather totally accurate.

The information does indicate that; 1. Most of the logins since the launch of Talkabt are from Australia

(60+%). 2. The vast majority (90+%) of logins since October 2016 have been

Halls Creek Residents. 3. There are visitors from more than thirty countries with some of the

higher usage coming from Germany, France, Switzerland, United

States, Netherlands, United Kingdom and Austria. Over time this type of data collection will be very useful in identifying where visitors to

Halls Creek are coming from and when they are visiting. This will help

Page 18 of 196


identify our strengths, weaknesses and opportunities in regards to tourism.

Summary

4.8 The above statistics show that there has been a good uptake of Talkabt

over the first 10 months of going live and it appears to be successful with

respect to improving the connectivity of visitors and the community. The level of use is continuing to rise.

4.9 The level of use between 8pm and 7am is low and very low after 11pm.

There is no evidence to suggest that the 24/7 availability is having a

negative social impact. Rather the level of use indicates that Talkabt is having a favourable social and economic impact. This is by making our

community more connected and providing them with something different to do with their time.

4.10 From an economic perspective 24/7 access maximises visitor exposure to the range of tourist products and facilities in the Shire and therefore

maximises the economic benefits. This will raise the recognition of Halls Creek as a significant tourism centre. Based on the statistics, in the

author’s opinion there is no basis to impose restrictions on the availability of Talkabt.

4.11 It is appropriate for monitoring of Talkabt to be continued. This is to evaluate the economic and social impacts, both positive and negative. If

any negative community or social issues are identified the matter be reported to Council.

5.0 Statutory Environment

5.1 Talkabt has been designed to meet legislative requirements such as

privacy and prevent access to in-appropriate sites.


6.1 The introduction and use of Talkabt is contributing to the following

objectives and outcomes identified in the Shire of Halls Creek Strategic

Community Plan, 2015:

Objective: 1. Social: Vibrant and connected communities. We support cultural and language diversity.

Outcome:

Social - 1.1 The quality of education and training opportunities (including early Childhood) are improved

Item Number: 9.2.1 Subject: Response to question raised by Ms Miranda

Gore at the Council Meeting of 16 February 2017

Reporting Officer: Director Health and Regulatory Services-Musa Mono




2.1 Response to a question raised by Ms Miranda Gore and Mr Darren Gore in the Ordinary Council Meeting of 16 February 2017.

3.0 Background

3.1 During public question time in the Ordinary Council Meeting of 16 February 2017, Ms Miranda Gore and Mr Darren Gore raised a question

regarding the construction of houses at Mardiwah Loop. She claimed that the houses were not built to WA Standards and that the houses

had sewage drainage problems. 3.2 Though the Chief Executive Officer explained that the Department of

Housing are their own licencing authority and do not have to seek building permits from the Shire, the question was still taken on notice for

further investigation.

3.3 Ms Gore further raised the current zoning of Mardiwah loop. The Director Strategic Planning advised Ms Gore at the meeting that public submissions for the review of the Planning Scheme would be commencing soon

and that the Mardiwahloop Corporation were encouraged to make a submission.

4.0 Comments

4.1 Houses at Mardiwah Loop have been constructed and/or upgraded by the

Department of Housing but funded by different organisations which include;

The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission

The National Partnership Agreement on Remote Indigenous Housing Funds

The Department of Housing and Works 4.2 Crown Reserve 41408 is under management order to Thalngarr Ngarriny

Aboriginal Corporation (TNAC) for the purpose of use and benefit of Aboriginal inhabitants.

4.3 A Memorandum of Understanding was established between the Department of Housing and the TNAC to allow residents of Mardiwah

Page 22 of 196


Loop to elect to have their properties directly managed by the Department. All occupants of the new houses constructed under the

National Partnership Agreement on Remote Indigenous Housing and all residents whose existing houses were refurbished in the 2009/2010

program agreed to sign tenancy agreements with the Department of Housing, totalling 33. Those lots not included under direct management continue under their existing arrangements with TNAC.

4.4 The number and siting of houses for the 2009/2010 constructions

and upgrades was determined through a consultation process run by the Thalngarr Ngarriny Aboringal Corporation, the Kimberley Development Commission and the Department of Housing. This

process also defined density per lot. Site placement was determined by an architect, NBC Aboriginal Corporation, who specialises in remote

area design and project management, and then revised on site by the construction companies. Siting was based on proximity to services, minimising site works and drainage considerations, as well as proximity

to existing dwellings to allow scope for future subdivision. Every effort was made to accommodate the preference of residents.

4.5 During this period, new housing construction was delivered by Murray

River North Pty Ltd and housing upgrade works were delivered by Ri- con Contractors. None of this work involved the Shire.

4.6 The Shire of Halls Creek has however indicated dissatisfaction with the state of housing, maintenance and sewage drainage at Mardiwah Loop.

As early as 1996, the Shire of Halls Creek Environmental Health Officer, Bill Atyeo took the Aboriginal Lands Trust to court for failing to deliver potable water and sewerage to a family at Mardiwah Loop. The Shire

lost this particular case because the WA Health Act 2011 did not bind the Crown and Aboriginal Lands Trust is an agent of the Crown.

4.7 According to section 5 of the new WA Public Health Act 2016, it would seem that this Act binds the Crown, and yet the same section exempts

the Crown from prosecution for any offence under the Act.

“5. Crown bound

(1) This Act binds the State and, so far as the legislative power of the State permits,

the Crown in all its other capacities.

(2) Nothing in this Act makes the Crown in any capacity liable to be prosecuted for

an offence.”

4.8 It should be noted therefore that the Shire has no legislative power to enforce health and/or building standards where the Housing Authority is

involved.

5.1 Sub-clauses (3) and (4), Clause 3.4-Public Question Time, of the

Shire of Halls Creek Standing Orders Local Law 2015 reads; 3.4 Public Question Time

Item Number: 9.2.2

Subject: Proposed Shire of Halls Creek Fencing Local Law 2017

Reporting Officer: Director Health and Regulatory Services -Musa Mono




2.1 Council to consider the new Draft Shire of Halls Creek Fencing Local Law for adoption as part of the 8 Year Local Law Review (Review) required by

the Local Government Act 1995 (the Act).

3.0 Background 3.1 The regulation of fencing has been dealt with under Part 5 of the Shire of

Halls Creek Local Government Local Law 2002. An attempt was made to review this local law in 2010, but the process was not completed due to

staff turnover. 3.2 Local governments in WA widely use the WALGA’s Model Local Laws to

draft their local laws. Under the current model local laws, the review of the SOHC Local Government Act local law is being done using the

WALGA Public Places and Government Property Local Law template. The Fencing local law template is separate and therefore requires a new local law for the Shire.

4.0 Comments

4.1 Most matters relating to fencing are dealt with by the Dividing Fences Act 1961 (DF Act), which in essence provides for property owners to build

fences and maintain them by agreement. The main role for local government is to prescribe what is considered to be a ‘sufficient fence’ in

the event that owners cannot agree, and to regulate some general matters.

4.2 As noted above, most issues relating to dividing fences are dealt with by the DF Act which provides for most issues relating to fencing between

properties to be decided by agreement between owners. Amongst other things:-

Owners are equally liable for the costs of erection and maintenance of a fence;

Provides for a process to decide what is to be built or repaired in the event that owners cannot agree;

A fence does not have to be built precisely on a boundary for it to be a

dividing fence; and

Page 26 of 196


A local government may prescribe by a local law what constitutes a ‘sufficient fence’ in relation to a dividing fence or a boundary fence.

4.3 Local governments may deal with any issues about fencing between

properties and thoroughfares in accordance with Schedule 3.1, Division 1, No. 4.(1) of the Act. This provides that a local government may serve a notice on an owner of a property to ensure that land that adjoins a public

thoroughfare or other public place is suitably enclosed to separate it from the public place.

4.4 The focus of the proposed new local law is to set out what constitutes a sufficient fence, with updates to reflect current practice or development.

4.5 The Schedules to the proposed fencing local law set out separate

provisions for what constitutes a ‘sufficient fence’ in residential, commercial or industrial, and rural and special rural zones.

4.6 Generally, a ‘sufficient fence’ does not need a permit under the fencing local law, except in the circumstances as set out in Part 2 to 5 of the local

law where a sufficient fence does need a permit. In essence, if a dividing fence does not satisfy the requirements of the relevant Schedule (and

therefore, is not a ‘sufficient fence’), and if it is not agreed to by the adjoining owners, the fence will require a permit to be lawful.

A summary of the provisions of the proposed fencing local law are set out below:

Part 1 Sets out administrative provisions and definitions.

Part 2 Provides that without the agreement of a neighbour a person must not erect a fence that is not a sufficient fence or alter the level of ground so as to affect the height of a sufficient fence. Nothing

allows persons to erect a dangerous fence without a permit from the Shire.

This Part establishes the requirement for a sufficient fence via Schedules, and provides that a person must obtain a permit from the Shire to erect a fence in a front setback area or a secondary

frontage that does not comply with the provisions of section 2.3 and 2.4.

Section 2.6 requires fences to be maintained. Section 2.7 requires the Shire’s approval for any fence that is proposed to contain razor wire or other material with spiked or

jagged projections. Section 2.8 sets out requirements with respect to gates in fences,

including the requirement to obtain a permit from the Shire to install a gate in a dividing fence that separates property from a

reserve or public thoroughfare.

Part 3 & 4 Deals with the approvals process.

Part 5 & 6 Sets out enforcement provisions, which include notices requiring compliance, modified penalties (on the spot infringements) of

generally $250 as listed in Schedule 1, and prosecution for serious offences. Note that the maximum allowable penalty under a local

law is $5,000.

Page 27 of 196


4.7 The Act requires the person presiding at a Council meeting to give notice

of the purpose and effect of the proposed local law;

Purpose The purpose of this local law is to prescribe a ‘sufficient fence’ and the standard for the construction of fences throughout the Shire district.

Effect

The effect of this local law is to establish the minimum requirements for fencing within the district.


5.1 Section 3.12 of the Local Government Act 1995 (the Act) sets out the

requirements for making a local law.

5.2 Section 3.12(3) of the Act requires a local government to give state-wide and local public notice stating that it proposes to make a local law, the

purpose and effect of which is summarised in the notice for a period of 6 weeks after it first appears.

5.3 In addition, as part of the process, local governments are required to send a copy of proposed local laws to the Minister for Local Government and in relation to this local law to the Minister for Commerce as well, being the

Minister responsible for the DF Act.

5.4 Under section 3.7 of the Local Government Act 1995, in the event of any

inconsistency between a local law and another written law, the other written law prevails to the extent of the inconsistency. In particular, the Shire of Halls Creek local planning scheme provisions will override the

local law, as does the Building Act 2012.

5.5 Section 24 of the Dividing Fences Act 1961 makes provision for the

Minister to require local governments to prescribe what constitutes a sufficient fence.


Objective: 1. Social: Vibrant and connected communities. We support cultural and language diversity.

Outcome:

Social - 1.7 Maintain a safe community and reduce crime levels Strategy:

Social - 1.7.1 Ensure local laws are appropriate and enforced

Page 28 of 196


7.0 Policy Implications

7.1 Introduction of proposed Fencing Local Law will allow the Shire to continue to regulate fencing to the extent allowable in the DF Act.


8.1 The costs associated with making the local law, including advertising and Gazettal have been included in the current budget.


Environmental There are no significant identifiable environmental impacts arising from adoption

of the officer’s recommendation. Economic


Social

Item Number: 9.2.4 Subject: Proposed Public Places and Local

Government Property Local Law 2017 Reporting Officer: Director Health and Regulatory Services-

Musa Mono




2.1 The draft Shire of Halls Creek Public Places and Local Government Property Local Law (2017) is being presented to Council for consideration.

3.0 Background

3.1 The local law currently in effect, The Local Government Act Local Law 2002, was gazetted in 2002 and has not been reviewed since. An attempt was made to review the local laws in 2010, when Council passed

resolution 2010/179. Paragraph 3 of this resolution read

“3. It be determined that the Local Government Act Local Laws 2002 in its present form satisfies the needs of the Local Government and that there will therefore be no action at the present time to modify or replace

it;”

3.2 It would seem however that this review process was not completed, as this decision was not gazetted, to fulfil the requirements of s. 3.16 of the

Local Government Act 1995 (the Act), which requires local governments to review their local laws at least once every 8 years.

4.0 Comments

4.1 The draft local law being presented to Council is based on the WALGA Public Places and Local Government Property Local Law model.

4.2 The proposed Public Places and Local Government Property Local Law is summarised as follows:

Part 1 – contains definitions of terms used throughout the proposed local

law.

Part 2 – introduces the power for Council to make ‘Determinations’ with respect to particular types of local government property and their use.

This is intended to apply where the full process to amend a Local Law is inappropriate, but where some formalised means of regulating use is required. Note that the subject matter in respect of which a

Determination can be made is limited to those listed in clauses 2.7 and 2.8, and that the procedure to make or amend Determinations is set out

in clauses 2.2 and 2.6. Part 3 relates to activities on Shire Property that require a licence (note

that licence, approvals and permits are the same). Under this Part, ‘Shire

Page 52 of 196


Property’ is in essence all the property under the Shire’s care, control and management except streets, which are dealt with in Part 6. Clause 3.1

contains a list of those activities where a licence is required. Part 4 deals with behaviour on Shire Property. In particular, clauses 4.1

and 4.2 deal with behaviour that interferes with the enjoyment of others using Shire Property, or damage to property.

Part 5 deals with those Shire Property that need specific rules, in

particular premises such as where a function may be being held, fenced areas, the golf courses and the use of toilet and shower facilities by those

of male and female gender. Clause 5.3 is an addition to the WALGA template and is a continuation from the SOHC Local Government Act Local Law 2002.

Part 6 deals with activities in streets. Clause 6.1 lists general prohibitions in relation to streets and verges and relates to sight distance hazards,

damage to streets and obstructions. Clause 6.2 lists those things that can be done only with a licence. Clause 6.3 deals with verge treatments, and requires a permit only where the proposed treatment differs from the

Local Law or where materials proposed to be used are not on the ‘list of acceptable materials’ maintained by the Shire under clause 6.5. Clause

6.11 allows the Shire to assign property numbers and clauses 6.16 and 6.17 give the Shire power to require adjoining property owners to redirect

water sprinklers, remove dangerous plants or remove something that may have been placed unlawfully on a street.

Part 7 regulates particular activities in public places. Clause 7.1 deals

with animals and vehicles in public places. Clauses 7.3 to 7.6 deal with the problem of dumped shopping trolleys, which (amongst other things)

must be marked with the retailers details. If a trolley is left in a public place the Shire can ask the retailer to collect and can impound the trolley and/or fine the retailer if not collected. Clause 7.4 also makes it an

offence for a person to leave a shopping trolley in a public place other than an area set aside for the storage of shopping trolleys.

Part 8 -11 deals with all types of licences regulated by the proposed local law such as general trading, markets, entertainment and foods other than on registered premises.

Part 12 deals with licences generally, and clauses 12.1 to 12.16 contain a list of typical conditions that might apply to a licence. Clauses 12.18 to

12.27 deal with the duration, renewals, transfer, suspension, cancellation or surrender of licences, and 12.28 to 12.33 miscellaneous issues. Note that licence fees are set using the Shire’s annual budget not under

the proposed local law. Part 13 deals with objections and reviews as required by Part 9 of the

Act, which provides that a person may appeal a decision made in relation to the granting, renewal, transfer, amendment, suspension or cancellation of a licence.

Part 14 gives the Shire a wide range of options with respect to enforcement of the proposed local law. Specifically, this can be done by

issuing notices to reinstate damage to Shire Property, rectify a licence breach, prosecution or the application of a modified penalty. Note that under clause 13.6 the Shire can undertake work required by a notice if its

requirements are not complied with and recover the cost of doing so from the responsible person/entity.

Part 15 deals with repeal and transitional provisions

Page 53 of 196


4.3 Finally, Schedule 1 contains a list of acceptable materials for verge treatment, Schedule 2 – 5 contains conditions for different licences

including trading, market, entertainment and food. Table 1 below shows the differences between the SOHC Local Government Local

Law and the Draft SOHC Public Places and Local Government Property Local Law. Table 2 shows the differences between the WALGA Public Places and Local

Item Number: 9.3.1 Subject: Budget Amendment for Water Meters and

Lines for the Halls Creek Airport Hanger Reporting Officer: Director Infrastructure Assets – Phil

Burgess




2.1 An amendment to the 2016/17 budget to make allowance for expenditure on water meters and lines for the Halls Creek Airport Hangers.

3.0 Background

3.1 As a result of the issues being addressed from the Shire’s renting of the 3 hangers at the Halls Creek Airport the following has been identified:

The 2 Companies renting the 3 hangers have not paid rent, water or electricity or been invoiced by the Shire for several years;

The 2 Companies are Oasis Air and Broome Aviation;

Water and Power costs have been absorbed by the Shire and not on charged to the Companies; and

Significantly there is no system that will allow for the reading of the

water usage and allocation costs to the individual user.

3.2 While several issues have been alluded to in this report, the budget

amendment seeks to only address the issue of the water to the hangers and buildings currently rented out by the Shire to ensure that fair use of

water is paid for by the user. 3.3 The new water meters and lines are capital items that have not been

budgeted for. A budget amendment is necessary prior to procuring them.

3.4 While work is ongoing with Broome Aviation, Oasis Air has entered into a payment plan to address the arrears in rent.

4.0 Comments

4.1 A quote for the installation of water meters and water to address the above-mentioned issues has been obtained from MRB Plumbing, one of

two plumbing contractors to the Shire. 4.2 The quote is for $13,350.00 excluding GST. These funds can be sourced

from the repayment of rent arrears, which has been commenced by Oasis Air.

Page 122 of 196



Local Government Act 1995 Section 6.8 (1) (b)

5.1 Local Government may incur expenditure not included in its annual budget if it is authorised by resolution and passed by an absolute majority.


Objective: 4. Civic: Working together to strengthen leadership and effective governance.

Outcome: Civic - 4.10 Improved business planning and performance

Strategy: Civic - 4.1.1 Provide strong, effective and functional governance and leadership

in the Shire



8.1 Additional CAPEX cost of Water meters and lines - $13,350.00 Draw down from arrears payments to hanger rent - $13,350.00

8.2 Once the meters are installed the Shire will be able to on charge the

companies for the water they are each using. The Shire will no longer be

paying for the water being used by these companies which will decrease the total amount the Shire is paying to WaterCorp each year.


9.1 Environmental There are no significant identifiable environmental impacts arising from

adoption of the officer’s recommendation. 9.2 Economic

There will be positive economic impacts for the Shire once the water meters are installed as we will be able to recoup the cost of water being

used on Shire properties at the airport. 9.3 Social


9.4 Risk

Low – the expenditure will reduce the risk of this happening again and the

Shire will not be exposed to excess water costs.

Page 123 of 196



That:

1. Council agree to a budget variation for installing water meters and lines to the hangers at Halls Creek Airport; and

2. The $13,350.00 required is funded from the Oasis Air repayment plan.

Voting Requirement Absolute majority

7.1 Nil


8.1 The first group of reports headed Management Report provides a graphical view of income and expenditure, a high level summary table on income and expenditure for each schedule with a

commentary on the key variances followed by a table on capital expenditure detailing year to date spend. The first page is a

summary of the whole of Council. 8.2 The reports that follow on from the Management reports are the

historical reports that are also included to ensure statutory requirements are met. Details on these reports follow.

8.3 The Statement of Cash Position details the cash at bank on the Shire’s balance sheet (Shires assets and liabilities both current and

non-current) comprised of: 1. Cash on hand – petty cash and floats.

2. Municipal funds general/unrestricted cash – utilised for Shire’s expenditure on general activities. Some of these funds are invested (as per investment report in same agenda) and the

balance remains in the municipal account. 3. Municipal funds restricted cash - grant monies received but not

spent 30 June previous year, and to be spent on specific purposes.

4. Reserve funds – money held in reserves which must be utilised for specific purposes as per the reserve fund. This money can be, and is, invested in accordance with Council policy.

8.4 Revenues and Expenditure at a Glance includes a number of graphs

comparing budget to actual providing a visual representation of how the Shire Council is tracking to Budget.

8.5 The Statement of Financial Activity (SFA) details the income and expenditure (both cash and non-cash) for the year to date, which is

also shown in the graphs. You will note that the surplus on the Statement of Financial Activity is that same as the surplus shown on the Net Current Assets Report.

Page 134 of 196


8.6 These are always in balance - the SFA details financial activity at

program level (eg Law and Order, Youth Services) whilst the Net Current Asset Position details the same activity but at balance

sheet level (ie movements in cash, debtors, creditors etc).

8.7 The Net Current Asset Position report details the items that make up the net current asset position. This opening balance from 1 July 2016 does not change during the year.

8.8 Rates

• The current rates outstanding are $ 862,626. • The balance outstanding includes current year rates $573,009.

8.9 Employee Entitlements • Employee entitlements for annual leave are now being accrued

for on a monthly basis rather than an end of year adjustment. This is to avoid any large adjustments at the end of the year.

Commentary

General Purpose Funding variance is also timing

relating to EDL grants and bad debt write off, expected

to be incurred towards the end of the year.

Revenue: Interest income expected to be below

budget due to extremely low interest rates and tight

cash flows.

Revenue: Rates revenue increase relates to rating

and back rating Telco sites. Other includes higher

than budget penalty interest on rates.

Revenue: Additional rates expected to be collected

due to the back rating of telecom towers, partly

offset by a reversal of rates, in Rates other, being a

non rateable property that was rated in error.

Expenditure: Rates expenses variance is timing as

the budget is spread on a one twelfth basis, but the

costs will be lumpy. Expenditure: Minimal expenditure variances.

Objective: 4. Civic: Working together to strengthen leadership and effective

governance. Outcome:


Page 153 of 196


Strategy: Civic - 4.1.1 Provide strong, effective and functional governance and

leadership in the Shire

Civic - 4.1.2 Consistent and impartial application of Council policies and provision of services

Civic - 4.1.3 Council decisions are consistent, reliable and transparent.

7.0 Policy Implications 7.1 Nil


8.1 The first group of reports headed Management Report provides a graphical view of income and expenditure, a high level summary

table on income and expenditure for each schedule with a commentary on the key variances followed by a table on capital

expenditure detailing year to date spend. The first page is a summary of the whole of Council.

8.2 The reports that follow on from the Management reports are the historical reports that are also included to ensure statutory

requirements are met. Details on these reports follow. 8.3 The Statement of Cash Position details the cash at bank on the

Shire’s balance sheet (Shires assets and liabilities both current and non-current) comprised of:

1. Cash on hand – petty cash and floats. 2. Municipal funds general/unrestricted cash – utilised for Shire’s

expenditure on general activities. Some of these funds are

invested (as per investment report in same agenda) and the balance remains in the municipal account.

3. Municipal funds restricted cash - grant monies received but not spent 30 June previous year, and to be spent on specific

purposes. 4. Reserve funds – money held in reserves which must be utilised

for specific purposes as per the reserve fund. This money can

be, and is, invested in accordance with Council policy.

8.4 Revenues and Expenditure at a Glance includes a number of graphs comparing budget to actual providing a visual representation of how the Shire Council is tracking to Budget.

8.5 The Statement of Financial Activity (SFA) details the income and

expenditure (both cash and non-cash) for the year to date, which is also shown in the graphs. You will note that the surplus on the Statement of Financial Activity is that same as the surplus

shown on the Net Current Assets Report.

Page 154 of 196


8.6 These are always in balance - the SFA details financial activity at

program level (eg Law and Order, Youth Services) whilst the Net Current Asset Position details the same activity but at balance

sheet level (ie movements in cash, debtors, creditors etc).

8.7 The Net Current Asset Position report details the items that make up the net current asset position. This opening balance from 1 July 2016 does not change during the year.

8.8 Rates

• The current rates outstanding are $ 688470. • The balance outstanding includes current year rates $467,772.

8.9 Employee Entitlements • Employee entitlements for annual leave are now being accrued

for on a monthly basis rather than an end of year adjustment. This is to avoid any large adjustments at the end of the year.

Commentary

General Purpose Funding variance is also timing

relating to EDL grants and bad debt write off, expected

to be incurred towards the end of the year.

Revenue: Interest income expected to be below

budget due to extremely low interest rates and tight

cash flows.

Revenue: Rates Other includes higher than budget

penalty interest on rates. Interest income on rates

below budget due to very poor interest rates.

Revenue: Additional rates expected to be collected

due to the back rating of telecom towers, partly

offset by a reversal of rates, in Rates other, being a

non rateable property that was rated in error.

Expenditure: Rates expenses variance is timing as

the budget is spread on a one twelfth basis, but the

costs will be lumpy. Expenditure: Minimal expenditure variances.
