Recommendation
That the Asset Committee recommend that council; 1 Installs approximately forty metres of new kerbing and paver footpath adjacent 35 Peake
Terrace, Waikerie. 2 Installs approximately seventy metres of kerbing and crusher dust footpath adjacent number 11
and 13 River Terrace, Kingston on Murray.
REPORT

The other type of works that takes place is the installation of new infrastructure which is when areas have new kerb and footpaths constructed due to new housing and areas identified as being deficient.

Asset Committee Reports
Council have allowed a capital allocation of money in the 2019/20 Annual Business Plan to formulate a more detailed Asset Management Plan for the replacement and installation of new kerbing and footpaths. The current allocation is a sum of money that is used to undertake works but at present has no specific nominated area.
Two areas that have been nominated are:
• 35 Peake Terrace in Waikerie where a new house has been built. The kerb stops before thehouse and vacant block of land. The approximate forty metres of kerb is suggested to continueon the same alignment and stop at the boundary of the former Waikerie Motor Cycle andMarine premises. This work would also include extending the paved footpath and allow the newdwelling to finish their concrete crossover and driveway to the kerb. Cost to undertake the workwould be approximately $14,000.

Asset Committee Reports
• River Terrace, Kingston on Murray adjacent the Murray River is largely kerbed. However thereis a portion of approximately 70m that is not and remains crushed rock.
The kerbing currently travels along River Terrace heading west and then stops leaving twodwellings before the kerbing starts again to travel around the corner and up Pope Street.The footpaths will be finished behind the kerb with crusher dust which is the same as themajority of the existing footpaths in this location. The area between the kerb and bitumen willbe sealed and line marked because of the corner accordingly to guide traffic from RiverTerrace to the beginning Holmes Road. The cost to undertake the work would beapproximately $18,000.

Recommendation
That the Asset Committee recommend council: 1 Allocates a new capital budget allocation to complete option xxxx of the project. 2 Funds to complete the works are made available from the 2019/20 operating sealing budget line.
REPORT
As work is undertaken around the Silo Art being footpaths, carpark and surrounds, the importance to have the Nippy’s Factory aesthetically balanced with the rest of the Town Entrance Statement has never been higher. A concept had been floated with ideas of having the area between Nippys Building and the road way completely hotmixed; not only would this be very hot and not very attractive but the additional funds required would be in excess of $100,000.

Asset Committee
An original concept from the 2016 Waikerie CBD Revitalisation workshop and form what was referred to as Ian Oliver Entry Avenue. This concept involved planting trees along Ian Oliver, however Nippy's were concerned with too many trees concealing the building and names printed on its walls. Nippy’s have begun work paving the entrance to their shop front, and to compliment this, a suggestion to have a hotmixed footpath (approx. 2.5m wide), line marking to promote foot traffic and a bike lane with car parking available against the building (Option 1) or a hotmixed strip (approx.. 3.0m wide) mainly for car parks (Option 2). Either options will encourage people to stop, shop and walk in the surrounding area. Trees with controlled height and foliage as well as a spray seal over the remaining section between the bike lane/parking lane and Nippy’s building, will discourage heavy trucks from trafficking the area apart from the weigh bridge. Nippys have agreed to supply a water outlet for the trees if this concept makes fruition. This could also present as a perfect opportunity and place to conduct the tree planter box trials and if they were to be unsuccessful then it would be simple and cost effective to transition to in ground tree planting.
Most of the pavement works have been completed; the cost of combined hotmix, Spray Seal, Line marking and Tree installation will be a more cost efficient approach, and will finish off the eastern town entrance works to Waikerie along Ian Oliver Drive. Cost to undertake Option 1 is $51,000 Option 2 is $58,000 The extra funds needed to complete works would need to be either redirected from the 2019/20 reseal maintenance budget operating line or Council will need to make a capital budget allocation.

Recommendation
That the Asset Committee recommend to council that the irrigation on the Moorook Oval be reduced to save water due to restrictions and continued based on minimal oval use unless circumstances change.
REPORT
Moorook Oval has continued to be watered and mowed despite no sporting team playing regular games at Moorook. Watering over the past 3 months has been reduced significantly due to minimal use and the realisation of irrigation restrictions for the 2019/20 financial year. The forecast irrigation allocation has climbed to the current 26% of entitlement and is suggested to still increase

but this still means that watering will need to be better planned and managed over the Loxton Waikerie Council District. Due to the Moorook Oval having very little to no use it is being suggested that the watering for the oval continue but considerably reduced compared to 2018/19 to maintain minimal turf cover. The reduction in watering will enable higher use areas such as main streets, some parks and ovals that attract regular use, be kept to a higher standard within the restricted water allocations. The reduced watering of the oval will also see a decrease in the amount of mowing required and mowing would be done without catching any of the grass clippings, power savings would also be applicable. The photos show the oval which is quite yellowed but this is largely due to the recent frosts experienced around the district. It should also be noted that turf is very resilient and can recover quick if required. The right handside photo shows the area that turf was harvested from for the Moorook Riverfront replacement.
