In Brief:

Section 36(b) of the Emergency Management Act 2005, states ‘it is a function of local government to manage recovery following an emergency affecting the community in its district’.

To guide the community through the recovery phase, in accordance with the Local Recovery Arrangements, the City has established the Local Recovery Coordination Group (LRCG). To support the LRCG, sub-committees will be created to address the social and economic issues faced by the community, with these sub-committees reporting to the LRCG.

It is envisioned that the sub-committees will meet fortnightly in the initial stages, and then at least monthly during the recovery period. Given the proposed make up of these sub-committees, meetings during office hours would be seen as preferable.

This report requests Council to nominate two Elected Members to each sub-committee to perform the functions of Chair and Deputy Chair.

Relevant Council Resolutions:

Council Meeting and Date Report No Decision

19 June 2018 SD-20-18 Endorsement of Local Emergency Management Arrangements 2018

That Council adopts the City of Canning Local Emergency Management Arrangements 2018 as per Attachment 1.

BACKGROUND

1 The Emergency Management Act 2005 (the Act) prescribes a number of tasks as the responsibility of Local Government in relation to planning, preparedness, response and recovery to emergency events. The development, review and exercising of Local Emergency Management Arrangements (LEMA) is a key requirement of the City.

2 The LEMA refers to the collection of all emergency management documentation, systems, processes and agreements which affect the Local Government district. The LEMA outlines roles and responsibilities to enable support to Hazard Management Agencies in times of an emergency, as well as community evacuation and recovery arrangements.

3 The City’s LEMA are supported by the Department of Communities Emergency Welfare Plan for the Cannington District and State Hazard Management Plans.

4 The State Emergency Management Committee (SEMC) approval process requires the LEMA to be endorsed by the Local Emergency Management Committee (LEMC) and the Local Government, prior to being submitted to the SEMC for noting.

5 The Canning/South Perth LEMC endorsed the City of Canning’s LEMA at the 6 February 2018 meeting and the City’s Local Emergency Management Arrangement was endorsed by Council at the 19 June 2018 Ordinary Council Meeting. This included the City’s Emergency Management Handbook and the Local Recovery Plan.

DETAILS

6 Most disasters generally tend to have a rapid onset, however response to the COVID-19 pandemic is very different to other emergency events. There is no visible destruction, no bridges to rebuild or fires to put out, no broken bones or obvious injuries. And apart from the immediate need to contain the virus, there is no urgency per se.

7 Recovery is defined as ‘the support of emergency affected communities in the reconstruction and restoration of physical infrastructure, the environment and community, psychological and economic wellbeing’

8 Section 36(b) of the Emergency Management Act 2005, states ‘it is a function of local government to manage recovery following an emergency affecting the community in its district’.

9 Successful recovery relies on:

a) Understanding the context - based on an understanding of the community context.

b) Recognising complexity - acknowledges the complex and dynamic nature of emergencies and communities.

c) Using community-led approaches - responsive and flexible, engaging communities and empowering them to move forward.

d) Ensuring coordination of all activities - requires a planned, coordinated and adaptive approach based on continuing assessment of impacts and needs.

e) Employing effective communication - built on effective communication with affected communities and other stakeholders.

f) Acknowledging and building capacity - recognises, supports and builds on community, individual and organisational capacity.

Impact Assessment:

10 In most emergency events an Impact Statement will be completed by the Controlling Agency for all incidents requiring recovery activity. The Impact Statement is an important step in identifying and documenting known and emerging impacts resulting from an emergency incident. They also mark the transfer of responsibility from the Controlling Agency (response) to local government (recovery). However, in the case of pandemic response/recovery, there is no clear delineation between the two. Whilst we are still in the response phase - and it may be some time before official handover to recovery takes place, we need to commence recovery and the process of identifying and documenting known and emerging impacts to assist in determining recovery activities and priorities.

11 To guide the City through the recovery phase, in accordance with the Local Recovery Arrangements, the City has established the Local Recovery Coordination Group (LRCG). To support the LRCG, sub-committees have been created for both the ‘Social’ and ‘Economic’ environments and will report up to the LRCG.

12 Composition of the LRCG and relevant sub-committees structures comprise a core membership, however other departments, staff and or agencies may be co-opted to provide information and/or expert advice as and when required.


Page 6


Operational Recovery Plan (ORP):

13 An Operational Recovery Plan is an event specific plan, which is informed through impact and or community needs assessments. The ORP sets out the recovery process to be implemented, details specific activities with area of responsibility, agreed timelines and outcomes to enable ongoing monitoring and evaluation.

14 This plan will be developed in collaboration with the two sub-committees, endorsed by the LRCG and presented to Council for noting. Any decisions required of Council will be the subject of an accompanying Council report.

15 Note: The Mayor and Deputy Mayor are on this group by virtue of their positions with the LEMC.

Social Recovery (SR) Sub-Committee

16 The social environment considers the impact an event may have on the health and wellbeing of individuals, families and communities. This environment is primarily concerned with safety, security and shelter, health and psychosocial wellbeing.

17 A broad overview of social wellbeing indicators include wealth, employment, amenity, health, social issues, social belonging, recreation and leisure.

18 For the purpose of the LRCG, Social Recovery is targeted at community recovery of those impacted by COVID-19 as a consequence of social isolation/restrictions and associated impacts.

19 The functions of the SR Sub-Committee are to support the LRCG by:

a) Assessing recovery requirements based on COVID-19 social impacts on the local community within the City of Canning LRCG context.

b) Recommending priority areas, projects, initiatives and events to assist with the COVID-19 Social Recovery process.

c) Identify opportunities for information exchange relevant to COVID-19 Social Recovery strategies.

d) Provide advice to the LRCG related to the progress of COVID-19 Social Recovery of the community.

Economic Recovery (ER) Sub-Committee

20 A vibrant local economy is a vital part of a sustainable community in the normal/routine environment, so in an emergency environment economic recovery is critical to the whole-of-community recovery process.

21 The economic effects of ‘traditional’ emergencies and disasters can be devastating and widespread. In most emergencies, physical damage is the most visible economic impact. However, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic may be less visible such as lost income, through disruption of trade or production and the consequences often last longer than physical damage (for example, bankruptcy and business closures). The flow-on effects through a community can be pervasive and long term.

22 ‘Livelihood’ the right to earn an income through employment or operation of a business—is recognised as fundamental to the dignity of individuals (SEEP Network 2009) and contributes to all other aspects of people’s lives.

23 For the purpose of the LRCG, Economic Recovery is targeted at community recovery of local development, industry and business impacted directly by COVID-19.

24 The functions of the ER Sub-Committee are to support the LRCG by:

a) Assessing recovery requirements based on COVID-19 Economic impacts to the local community within the City of Canning LRCG context.

b) Recommending priority areas, projects, initiatives and events to assist with the COVID-19 Economic recovery process.

SUB PROGRAM: Land Utilisation

FILE REF: Q20/208


REPORTING OFFICERS: Liz Hales - Revenue Development Officer

Sarah McQuade - Executive Manager Enriching Canning


Strategic Plan Theme: BUILD - Accessible, pleasing urban spaces that are fit-for-purpose. Community Goal: Good amenities and lifestyle. Council Strategy: Building and land use that is sustainable.


Attachments: 1. Corinthian Park Tennis Club Location Plan CSRFF proposal (D19/93126).

2. Assessment of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries Community Sporting and Recreation Fund Applications (D20/78612).

In Brief:

The City of Canning intends to submit three projects for consideration of grant funding from the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries (DLGSC) CSRFF Annual/Forward Planning 2021-2022 Funding Program. The three projects for consideration are:

1. Coker Park Change Rooms Upgrade;

2. Queens Park Regional Open Space project elements; and

3. Corinthian Tennis Club Facility (CPTC) Facility Improvements.

This report seeks Council approval for the proposed ranking of the three projects for grant funding consideration, in addition to in principle support for the City grant applications to include a funding commitment of two-thirds the total project cost for the 2021-2022 Financial Year. This report also seeks the approval of $179,200 ex GST from the City’s Community Facility Reserve towards the Corinthian Park Tennis Club’s facility upgrades project.

Council is asked to support the Officer Recommendation because:

a) The projects will allow the City to proactively manage current and future community needs for sports and recreation amenities.

b) Should one or more of the applications be successful, the financial commitment of the City will be reduced for each successful project.

c) Delivering improved facilities will allow community user groups and Clubs to increase participation rates, and contribute to the City as a ‘welcoming and thriving’ community.

d) The projects will lead to improved reputation and stakeholder relationships.


Page 11


If the Officer Recommendation is not supported:

a) Community expectations will not be met.

b) The City may experience a reputational loss in not proactively responding to community groups’ current and future needs.

c) Current ageing facilities will continue to incur growing maintenance costs to the City and lead to declining usage.

d) Corinthian Park Tennis Club expectations will not be met, leading to reputational loss.

OFFICER RECOMMENDATION

That Council:

1. Authorises the Chief Executive Officer to submit three project funding applications to the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries (DLGSC) Annual and Forward Planning 2021-2022 funding program in the following order of priority:

Forward Planning Grant

1. Coker Park Change Room Upgrades. 2. Queens Park Regional Open Space works.

Annual Grant

3. Corinthian Park Tennis Club (CPTC) Facility Improvements.

2. Provides in principle support for the City grant applications to include a funding commitment as outlined in this report.

3. Approves the revised provision of $179,200 ex GST from the City’s Community and Sport Facility Reserve to the Corinthian Park Tennis Club, to partly fund various improvements to its facility, subject to the success of the DLGSC grant funding application, or obtaining alternative funding sources.

4. Notes that should one or more of the Forward Planning Grant proposals be successful, a further report will be presented to Council to endorse the successful project(s) and the commitment of funds, and to authorise the Chief Executive Officer to enter into a State Grant Agreement(s).

Relevant Council Resolutions


OCM 18 February 2020 NOM-001-20

That Council:

1. Ensures that the Coker Park clubroom and change rooms are the first priority for the Large Grants Round 2020.

2. Endorses upgrading the lighting at Coker Park this year as one of its Sports Lighting Upgrade Projects 2020.


Page 12




OCM 20 August 2019

CC-042-19

Approves the provision of $155,098 ex GST from the City’s Community and Sporting Facility Reserve to Corinthian Park Tennis Club.

BACKGROUND

1 The DLGSC’s Community Sports and Recreation Facilities Fund (CSRFF) Annual/Forward Planning Program (the Program) is an open, competitive grants program that aims to provide financial assistance to community groups and local government authorities to develop basic infrastructure for sports and recreation. The Program’s intended outcomes are to increase participation in sport and physical recreation activities, with an emphasis on physical activity, through rational development of sustainable, well-designed and well-utilised facilities.

2 The Program’s funding guidelines have identified the provision of new or upgraded change rooms and ablutions facilities as a priority for consideration, in addition to improving facility useability for female participants. However, in addition to these priorities, the Program provides funding for floodlighting, new playing surfaces, and resurfacing existing sports surfaces.

3 In the 2021-2022 financial year, the total funding available is $12 million. The value of grants for the Annual category is between $100,001 ex GST and $166, 667 ex GST. The value of grants for the Forward Planning category is between $166,667 ex GST and $2 million ex GST. The Program provides funding of up to one-third of total eligible project costs for projects valued between $300,001 ex GST to $500,000 ex GST (Annual) and projects valued $500,001 ex GST and over.

4 The application period for the Annual/Forward Planning Grant Program categories opened on 25 May 2020, with applications due to the DLGSC by 4pm on 11 September 2020. Formal outcome notification is expected in November/December 2020, with funds available to successful applicants from July 2021. DLGSC require Local Government Authority’s (LGA) to rank Forward Planning and Annual Grant applications in order of priority. It is expected that the DLGSC will follow the City’s project prioritisation recommendations, and the Ordinary Council minutes will be attached to all applications prior to submission.

5 The current project prioritisation rankings have been determined by City Officers using the following criteria:

a) The project’s alignment to City strategic priorities, as outlined in the City’s Strategic Community Plan (SCP).

b) The results of community consultation, including level of stakeholder support.

c) Whether the project’s outcomes will maintain or increase physical activity and/or rationalise facility usage.

d) The likelihood of increasing participation rates of sports clubs as the result of the changes made in the project.

e) Whether the total project value fits within the CSRFF Program’s eligibility criteria.

f) Anticipated schedule for delivery.

g) Project readiness.

6 The City intends to submit three project grant applications for consideration in the Program’s Annual and Forward Planning funding categories for the 2021-2022 round. Two applications are to seek funding for City projects, and one application is to seek funding for the CPTC upgrade project.

DETAILS

Forward Planning Grant

First Priority: Coker Park Change Room Upgrades

7 Coker Park is a public open space situated along Wharf Street in Cannington. Coker Park has numerous sport and creation facilities, including: two synthetic cricket pitches, four synthetic cricket nets, floodlights for training and match play, private clubrooms, change rooms with public toilets and a kiosk area. In addition, the location also consists of a playground, parking, and a drinking fountain.

8 The City has identified Coker Park is in need of significant upgrade works, with a priority of implementing gender-neutral change room facilities across the sporting buildings inline with the State Government. The State Government’s CSRFF Guidelines indicate that the upgrade of change room facilities to gender-neutral standards is a state priority.

9 The proposed changes to the Coker Park change room facilities aims to provide a functional and accessible environment to all sports clubs and casual community users of the facilities. The changes will allow for increased female participation in sport and recreation activities at the site. The proposed changes include:

a) Convert existing store room into fourth change room with new bench seating and hooks, unisex shower facilities with lockable shower and toilet cubicles and hand basins.

b) Separate common shower block into two separate shower blocks for change rooms. New lockable shower cubicles and toilet facilities. New tiles, benches and hooks to change rooms.

c) Additional store room facilities (x5) added to building for club use.

d) New dedicated umpires change room with lockable shower and toilet cubicles, basin and benches.

e) Two new public Universal Access Toilets added to the building.

f) New paving extension with shade sail.

g) New painting, tiling and plumbing fixtures throughout.

10 The current change room facilities are inadequate for users and the general public, and are not to a standard that can welcome diverse user groups. In particular, the existing facilities are gender-divided that reduces the capacity of the site to host female sports and recreation participants to the same capacity as male participants. The facilities currently do not meet standard compliance for the facilities current requirements and usage.

11 In addition, the existing facilities need general renewal to finishes and fixtures throughout, with outdated functional arrangements.

12 Coker Park is utilised consistently by six organisations/groups: Cannington Tigers Cricket Club (80 members); Queens Park Soccer Club (170 plus members); the Western Australian Cricket Association; South Perth Cricket Club; Seven Oaks College; and Canning Community College. The existing facilities have reduced the capability of these clubs to expand their membership bases, and to host games and competitions at the site. These user groups anticipate growth in junior and female participation, which requires more partitioned and gender-neutral services.

13 The City has consulted with both the Cannington Tigers Cricket Club and Queens Park Soccer Club through an initial facility questionnaire, City Recreation Plan meeting and ongoing consultation of draft facility plans. Inadequate storage was common feedback from these clubs.

14 The additional storage provision will assist each of the Clubs to store more equipment and provide opportunities to offer more programs and services to current and prospective members.


Page 14


15 This project will provide a range of benefits to the community, including:

a) Providing a more inviting, inclusive and accessible environment to all players and users. This will generate more opportunities to increase participation levels and overall satisfaction of the facility and venue.

b) The addition of a fourth change room and a dedicated umpire’s room will provide greater service for both playing fields and align to requirements by relevant State Sporting Associations.

c) The provision of greater storage capacity will create a more inviting and accessible facility that will create a more appealing environment to potentially new groups and users.

16 This upgrade aligns with the minimum standards of facility provision from both the WA Cricket Association (WACA) and Football West, in which the current facility is viewed as sub-standard.

17 This project aligns with the WACA’s Infrastructure Strategy priorities to improve/renew clubrooms and amenities, and the provision of all gender player amenities.

18 This project aligns with Football West’s strategic focus on the improvement of facilities to support and enable the game to be accessible and a great experience for all.

19 The total project cost for the Coker Park project is $750,000 ex GST.

20 Amount to be requested from DLGSC: $250,000 ex GST (approx).

Second Priority: Queens Park Regional Open Space (QPROS) Works Project

21 In 2015, Football West developed a ‘Home of Football’ concept that aimed to bring the organisations business into one site and deliver their community and high performance programs, with the original site location to be at Ashfield Reserve (Town of Bassendean). In October 2017, after the State election and change of government, local government elections were held and the Town of Bassendean resolved to withdraw support for the development at Ashfield Reserve.

22 The DLSGC then approved the City of Canning and provided potential site locations that were prioritised based on area required and accessibility, with the Queens Park Regional Open Space selected as the preferred site in July 2018.

23 In 2019, in the lead up to the 2019 federal election, the Commonwealth Government committed $16.25 million to the development of the project announced by Honourable Steve Irons MP, Federal Member for Swan and Honourable Scott Morrison MP, Prime Minister of Australia.

24 On Sunday 14 June 2020, the State Government announced that they will match the $16.25 million commitment of the Commonwealth to realise the construction of the State Football Centre (SFC). The SFC will be located at the northern end of the Queens Park Open Space in Queens Park, bordered by Welshpool Road, Wharf Street, Whitlock Road and Gibbs Street.

25 The SFC project scope excludes all of the site’s ‘community spaces’. To improve accessibility and meet the expected additional capacity of visitors to the site, the City has identified additional works to meet the broader community’s needs and will improve the site’s capacity to accommodate larger numbers of sporting clubs and casual users utilising the site.

26 These additional works to the SFC project come under the City’s contribution to the overall site redevelopment.

27 The proposed scope of works include:

a) Construction of two sports fields.

b) Sports and general lighting.

c) Gender-neutral change rooms.


Page 15


28 The site currently lacks the quality facilities required for organised sports clubs to use space as a Home base, and as a result no sporting club uses the site in this capacity. The existing change room and kiosk facilities are aged, and are not sufficient for catering to diverse sporting groups.

29 The benefits of redeveloping the community space area of the QPROS will including improving the accessibility and range of amenities that can facilitate larger numbers of casual and community user groups. It is anticipated that through the construction of the SFC, the QPROS will serve as the dedicated administration centre and home of football (soccer) with facilities and amenities that cater to the all levels of the sport, from elite players and clubs to junior and senior level clubs and casual community users. This project will also allow the site to facilitate community sports programs and initiatives, such as interschool sports events.

30 The total eligible project cost for the QPROS works project is $1.35 million ex GST.

31 Amount to be requested from DLGSC: $450,000 ex GST (approx)

Third Priority: Corinthian Park Tennis Club (CPTC) Facility Improvements

32 CPTC leases Lot 3794 Nurdi Way, Riverton. The Club has exercised the option to extend the lease to 20 June 2029. The land is owned by the State of Western Australia and is vested in the City.

33 CPTC has submitted an application to the Community Grants Program towards the facility improvements outlined in this report.

34 CPTC has approximately 269 registered members in addition to social users who use the facility. The proposal estimates that approximately 500 social users will benefit from the outlined facility improvements in addition to the registered members.

35 A location map of the CPTC has been included with this report (Attachment 2).

36 The proposal from CPTC includes:

a) Resurfacing of hard courts 3, 4, 5 and 6 with an acrylic gel surface.

b) Replacement of light poles and installation of LED floodlights to courts 3 and 5 and installation of LED floodlights to courts 4 and 6.

c) Conversion of grass courts 14 and 15 to acrylic gel surface hard courts and installation of light poles and LED floodlights.

d) Resolve drainage issues on site.

37 The proposal will enable the two new hard courts (14 and 15) to be used seasonally, increasing participation and income opportunities, and reducing costs through improved maintenance methods.

38 The installation of LED floodlighting on courts 3, 4, 5, 6, 14, and 15 will result in increased participation and improved playing experience during evenings, reduced energy consumption and light spillage onto the local amenity and a decrease in maintenance expenditure.

39 The resurfacing of courts 3, 4, 5, and 6 will reduce the physical impact on players and attract new players as a result of the new modern surface, improving the viability of the Club.

40 Resolving the drainage issues will increase playing and income opportunities, reduce impact on the surface and future deterioration of lighting poles. The City has recently replaced the light poles on courts 4 and 6 due to corrosion from inadequate drainage resulting in safety concerns.

41 CPTC proposal aligns with Tennis West’s Strategic Plan 2016-2020 which identifies the need to increase participation levels by creating greater positive experiences in tennis.

42 The total project cost for CPTC submission is $499,110 ex GST. CPTC is registered for GST.

43 CPTC is seeking financial support from the City and the DLGSC for the conversion of two grass courts to hard courts with floodlights; the replacement/upgrade of four hardcourts; upgrading of floodlighting on four existing courts; and resolve existing onsite drainage issues.

44 This project previously received endorsement from the City for the in principle commitment of $155,098 ex GST at the Ordinary Council Meeting held on 20 August 2019, towards the CSRFF Annual grant submission in September 2019 subject to receiving funds from DLGSC.

45 The application was unsuccessful due to the competitiveness of the grant round. Feedback received from DLGSC advised the project did meet the CSRFF criteria however the drainage and maintenance resurfacing element of courts 3, 4, 5, and 6 were not considered as high priority compared to the other elements of the proposal. It is acknowledged though these elements are vital towards the sustainability of participation in tennis at the facility. Based on this feedback, CPTC has revised the funding breakdown between the three parties. The revised submission is proposing a third funding split of the proposal costs between the three parties with the exception of the drainage and maintenance resurfacing costs of courts 3, 4, 5 and 6 which would be a 50/50 split between CPTC and the City. The proposed funding breakdown and request is as follows: CPTC $179,200 ex GST, City $179,200 ex GST and DLGSC $140,711 ex GST. The City’s request for funding is an increase of $24,102 from the endorsed grant request at the Ordinary Council Meeting on 20 August 2019. The City’s contribution would be matched by CPTC.

46 Expression of Interest (EOI) applications for the City’s Community Grants Program - Sports and Recreation Facilities grant and DLGSC’s CSRFF Annual Grant are sought from the community. This is the only application from community and sporting organisations seeking DLGSC funding in 2021-2022 financial year.

47 The Grant Assessment Panel recommends that the Club be awarded $179,200 ex GST in funding, subject to the Club satisfying the requirements of:

a) The balance of the project’s actual expenditure of $319,910 ex GST is provided by DLGSC and CPTC.

b) Deflectors installed on all new and upgraded lights.

c) Certified electrical engineering drawings to be submitted with the Building Permit confirming the lighting spill will not negatively affect the amenity of the surrounding residential properties.

d) A Certified Building Permit being approved and issued.

48 Attachment 1 outlines the results of the DLGSC Criteria Assessment for the Club application being submitted for CSRFF funding.

COMMENT

61 An application has been received from the CPTC towards the development of the sports facility. CPTC is requesting funding ($179,200) in 2021-2022 from the City as well as DLGSC to complete its project.

62 DLGSC requires the City to rank all of the applications it proposes to submit for CSRFF funding. The Sports and Recreation Facilities Grants Panel recommends the following rankings:

a) The Coker Park project is ranked as ‘Number 1’.

b) The QPROS works project is ranked as ‘Number 2’.

c) The CPTC proposal is ranked as ‘Number 3’.

63 If approved, the Coker Park change room upgrades will facilitate greater levels of sport and recreation participation at the site, particularly with female users. In addition, with over 20,000 new residents expected to call the Cannington area home in the future, a modern sports and recreation facility is essential for meeting the physical activity and recreation needs of this growing community.

64 If approved, the QPROS works will bring the Queens Park site in line with community user group and elite sports standards, alongside the development of the SFC. These works will allow greater numbers of sports groups and casual users to participate in sports and recreational activities, with modern amenities that meet a wide range of community needs.

65 If approved, the CPTC proposal will increase participation levels, improve playing experiences, reduce energy consumption and light spillage onto the local amenity, lower maintenance expenditure and improve the viability of the Club.

REPORTING OFFICER: Roberta Schuchmann - Senior Strategic Projects Planner

RESPONSIBLE OFFICER: Graeme Bride - Director Canning Sustainable Development

Strategic Plan Theme: BUILD - Accessible, pleasing urban spaces that are fit-for-purpose. Community Goal: Good amenities and lifestyle. Council Strategy: Public Transport integrated with housing.

Authority/Discretion: Legislative: Includes adopting Local Laws, Town Planning Schemes and Policies. Review when Council reviews decisions made by Officers.

2. Schedule of Modifications (D19/130990). 3. Approved City Centre Activity Centre Plan (D17/163118).

(Large Attachments)

In Brief:

The Canning City Centre Activity Centre has been designated as a Strategic Metropolitan Activity Centre under the Western Australian Planning Commission’s (WAPC) Directions 2031 and Beyond, Perth and [email protected] million and State Planning Policy 4.2 Activity Centres for Perth and Peel (SPP 4.2). Council resolved to adopt the Canning City Activity Centre Plan (Activity Centre Plan) at its 20 September 2016 Ordinary Council Meeting under item PR-034-16.

Council is requested to endorse draft Amendment No. 1 to the Activity Centre Plan to be advertised for public comment.

The current draft Amendment No. 1 seeks to bring the Activity Centre Plan in line with the recently adopted State Planning Policy 7.3 (SPP7.3) – Residential Design Codes Volume 2 – Apartments. The changes include general document restructuring and deletion of clauses that are covered in SPP7.3. The current draft also proposes to add Non-residential Development Requirements and a small section on Single Houses and Grouped Dwellings Design Requirements to address gaps in the current plan.

Council is asked to support the Officer Recommendation as it will allow the proposal to be advertised for public comment. The advertisement is required in the process of updating and simplifying the Activity Centre Plan. The ultimate amendment of the Activity Centre Plan will contribute to the reduction of red tape for land owners, developers and the City.

If the Officer Recommendation is not supported the Activity Centre Plan will retain the current inconsistencies with the new SPP7.3. This will result in a more complex and cumbersome development assessment process in the area.

1. Pursuant to Schedule 2, Part 5 of the Planning and Development (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015, resolves to proceed to advertise Canning Activity Centre Plan Amendment No. 1 (as per Attachment 1) to:

a) Delete requirements that are redundant due to the introduction of the State Planning Policy 7.3 – Residential Design Codes Volume 2 – Apartments.

b) Add development requirements for non-residential development.

c) Add development requirements for lower density developments.

d) Correct information and typographical errors where required.

2. Pursuant to Schedule 2, Part 5, Clause 45(2) of the Planning and Development (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015, requests the Chief Executive Officer advertise the proposed Activity Centre Plan Amendment for a period of 28 days.


Council Meeting and Date Report No. Decision

OCM 15 October 2013 CF-012-13

Council adopted the Canning City Centre Activity Centre Structure Plan as a Local Planning Policy (LPP).

OCM 21 June 2016 PR-025-16 Council endorsed the draft Activity Centre Plan for public advertising.

OCM 20 September 2016 PR-034-16 Council resolved to adopt the Canning City Centre Activity Centre Plan.

OCM 19 March 2019 NOM-002-19

Council receives a report for its consideration outlining the City’s advice on any necessary amendment to the Canning City Centre Activity Centre Plan, to include consideration of developments to provide power outlets to recharge electric vehicles.

BACKGROUND

1 The Canning City Centre Activity Centre has been designated as a Strategic Metropolitan Activity Centre under the Western Australian Planning Commission’s (WAPC) Directions 2031 and Beyond, Perth and [email protected] and State Planning Policy 4.2 Activity Centres for Perth and Peel (SPP 4.2).

2 Council adopted the Canning City Centre Activity Centre Structure Plan as a Local Planning Policy (LPP) at its Ordinary Council Meeting on 15 October 2013 (Item CF-012-13).

3 The Activity Centre Plan is classified as an Activity Centre Plan under the Planning and Development (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015 (the Regulations), and the Deemed Provisions clearly set the terms for Activity Centre Plans. The planning purpose of an Activity Centre Plan is to coordinate the future subdivision and development of an activity centre.

mailto:[email protected]


Page 28


4 The Activity Centre Plan operates within the existing planning framework. The City’s draft Local Planning Scheme No. 42 (LPS 42) provides the zoning and land use permissibility to ensure the operation of the Activity Centre Plan. Other instruments within the planning framework as mentioned above impact upon the preparation and adoption of the Activity Centre Plan.

5 A number of refinements have been made, following the adoption of the Activity Centre Plan as a LPP. These refinements and changes were discussed in more detail in the relevant 21 June 2016 Ordinary Council Meeting report, item PR-025-16.

6 Council resolved to endorse the draft Activity Centre Plan for the purpose of public advertising at its 21 June 2016 Ordinary Meeting under item PR-025-16 and resolved to adopt the Canning City Activity Centre Plan at its 20 September 2016 Ordinary Council Meeting under item PR-034-16.

7 This amendment seeks to bring the Activity Centre Plan in line with the recently adopted State Planning Policy 7.3 (SPP7.3) – Residential Design Codes Volume 2 – Apartments. The amendment also proposes a few minor changes to improve the implementation of the Activity Centre Plan.

8 In relation to Council’s resolution on electric vehicle charging outlets (NOM-002-19), a new Clause 9.8 (Parking Standards) has been proposed, which would require new developments within the Canning City Centre to provide either electric vehicle charging infrastructure as part of the development or alternatively provide sufficient infrastructure to accommodate future electric vehicle charging points at a minimum of 20 percent of total bays. This control essentially aligns with design guidance statement DG 3.9.10 in SPP 7.3 and ensures stand-alone commercial developments, which are not controlled by SPP 7.3, are subject to this consideration.

DETAILS

9 The Activity Centre Plan Amendment No. 1 proposes to make several changes to the Activity Centre Plan. The fundamental changes proposed as part of Amendment No. 1 are the following:

General Document Restructuring:

a) Title name change from Canning City Centre Activity Centre Plan to Canning Activity Centre Plan.

b) Change in clause numbers and header levels ordering for greater consistency.

b) Changes to main Activity Centre Plan Map (Figure 3):

i. Addition of purple line (water sensitive treatment) to areas near the train station.

ii. Update to the cadastre along Liege Street (to match the recently built road extension from Albany Highway to Grey Street).

iii. Update to Indicative laneways (to provide improved landowner and developer certainty over positioning and width of new laneways).

iv. Outline of power substation buffer to match recent updates to the Metropolitan Region Scheme (MRS).

SD-015-20 Queens Park Local Structure Plan - Amendment 2 - Public Advertisement


SUB PROGRAM: Liveable Canning

FILE REF: Q19/508


REPORTING OFFICER: Roberta Schuchmann - Senior Strategic Projects Planner



Authority/Discretion: Legislative: Includes adopting Local Laws, Town Planning Schemes and Policies. Review when Council reviews decisions made by Officers.

Attachments: 1. Queens Park Local Structure Plan (D20/51011). (Large Attachments)

2. Schedule of Modifications (D19/146661). 3. Approved Queens Park Local Structure Plan (D15/187753).

(Large Attachments)

In Brief:

Council at its meeting held on 17 August 2015, resolved to adopt the Queens Park Local Structure Plan (Local Structure Plan) (refer Report ED-003-15). The Local Structure Plan provided for higher density development requirements for properties around the Queens Park Train Station.

Council at its meeting held on 12 December 2017, resolved to adopt the Amendment 1 to Queens Park Local Structure Plan (refer Report SD-022017). The amendment expanded the area of the Local Structure Plan to include properties between the Canning City Centre Activity Centre Plan and the Queens Park Local Structure Plan.

Queens Park Local Structure Plan Amendment 2 (Local Structure Plan Amendment) seeks to bring the Local Structure Plan in line with the recently adopted State Planning Policy 7.3 (SPP7.3) – Residential Design Codes Volume 2 – Apartments. The amendment also proposes a few minor changes to improve the implementation of the Local Structure Plan.

Council is now requested to endorse draft Amendment No. 2 to the Local Structure Plan to be advertised for public comment. The proposed changes to the Local Structure Plan are at Attachment 1. Minor typo corrections are also proposed to the Background Report (Part 2 of the Local Structure Plan). The changes to Part 1 include general document restructuring and deletion of clauses covered by SPP7.3.

Council is asked to support the Officer Recommendation because it will allow the proposal to be advertised for public comment. The advertisement is required in the process of updating and simplifying the Local Structure Plan. The ultimate amendment of the Local Structure Plan will contribute to the reduction of red tape for land owners, developers and the City.

If the Officer Recommendation is not supported the Queens Park Local Structure Plan will retain the current inconsistencies with the new State Planning Policy SPP7.3. This will result in a more complex and cumbersome development assessment process in the area.





Page 40



That Council:

1. Pursuant to Schedule 2, Part 4 of the Planning and Development (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015, resolves to proceed to advertise Queens Park Local Structure Plan Amendment No. 2 (as per Attachment 1) to:

a) Delete requirements that are redundant due to the introduction of the State Planning Policy 7.3 – Residential Design Codes Volume 2 – Apartments.

b) Add development requirements for non-residential development.

c) Add development requirements for lower density developments.


2. Pursuant to Schedule 2, Part 5, Clause 45(2) of the Planning and Development (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015, requests the Chief Executive Officer advertise the proposed Activity Centre Plan Amendment for a period of 28 days.

4 Queens Park Local Structure Plan Amendment 2 (Local Structure Plan Amendment) seeks to bring the Local Structure Plan in line with the recently adopted State Planning Policy 7.3 (SPP7.3) – Residential Design Codes Volume 2 - Apartments. The amendment also proposes a few minor changes to improve the implementation of the Local Structure Plan.

CONSIDERATIONS

Legal Compliance

6 The Planning and Development (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015 outline the structure plan amendment process. Queens Park Local Structure Plan Amendment No. 2 will follow this process.

Policy Implications

7 Not applicable.


Business Plan

8 Development and progression of the Queens Park Local Structure Plan Amendment No. 2 is in line with the Strategic Planning Business Plan under the ‘Strategic Land Use Planning’ core service.

Internal Budget

9 Work undertaken for the Queens Park Structure Plan Amendment No. 2 has been funded from the Strategic Planning Budget.

Asset Management

10 No current assets of the City are affected by this proposal.


11 The new Sustainability policy was adopted 18 June 2019. The City is now working towards determining a set of City-wide targets, which will provide measurable criteria for sustainability progress assessment.

12 In advance of these targets having been developed by the City and endorsed by Council, this project addresses Sustainability Policy CM194 Commitment 4 by ‘A commitment to climate responsive urban development’ by ensuring climate responsive developments for the properties in the Queens Park Local Structure Plan area.

13 The Local Structure Plan takes an integrated, transit-oriented design approach to facilitate accessibility, mobility and appropriate local economic growth.

14 The Local Structure Plan allows for development bonuses when green infrastructure is integrated into the built form and natural landscape. The green infrastructure and natural landscape additions will assist in future-proofing the City against potential impacts of climate change.

Consultation

15 The Planning and Development (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015 prescribes statutory requirements for community consultation during the Structure Plan Amendment process. These requirements will be observed throughout the community consultation activities for the Local Structure Plan Amendment.


16 The Structure Plan Amendment and related Scheme Amendments are dependent on approval by the Western Australian Planning Commission and may face delays and direction for modifications at a later stage in the process.

Authority/Discretion: Advocacy: When Council advocates on its own behalf or on behalf of its community to another level of government, body or agency.

Attachments: 1. Metronet Proposal (D20/81894). 2. Metronet Fact Sheet (D20/81892). 3. City of Canning Submission - Inner Armadale Line Level

Crossing Removals (DRAFT) (D20/81895). 4. Elevated Rail between Hamilton and Gerard Streets

(D20/83729).

In Brief:

This report endorses the City of Canning’s (the City) response to the Inner Armadale Line Level Crossing Removals proposal that was announced on 16 June 2020 by the State Government.

The proposal involves the removal of up to six level crossings including Mint Street, Oats Street, Welshpool Road, Hamilton Street, Wharf Street and William Street. The works will also result in the Carlisle, Oats Street, Beckenham and potentially Queens Park Stations being rebuilt elevated. It is proposed that the Welshpool Station will be closed.

The City’s response provides comment on the Metronet proposed options and advocates for further works and improvements to the proposals. The ultimate position the City is advocating for is the elevation of the rail line over Hamilton Street, remaining elevated to William Street. Our position includes the elevation and redevelopment of Cannington Station and retaining, or allowing for a future station at Welshpool Station. In summary it is recommended Council:

a) Support the proposed rail-over-road proposal at the Welshpool Road crossing.

b) Advocate for the retention of the Welshpool Station or if it is removed then provisions are made for the station to be reinstated.

c) Advocate for the elevation of rail at the Hamilton Street crossing.

d) Support Option 1 at the Queens Park Station and Wharf Street crossing, being elevated rail.

e) Advocate for the elevation of the rail to be extended to include the Cannington Station and Gerard Street, including the removal of the Gerard Street Bridge.

If the Officer’s Recommendation is not supported the City will lose the opportunity to advise of our preferred options and advocate for further improvements during Metronet’s consultation period.

That Council endorses the City of Canning’s Inner Armadale Line Level Crossing Removals submission as per Attachment 3, to Metronet, in response to their Inner Armadale Line Level Crossing Removals proposal.



Not applicable.

BACKGROUND

1 As part of the 2017 State Election, the Labor Party committed to the removal of the at-grade rail crossings at Denny Avenue in Kelmscott, Oats Street in Carlisle, Wharf Street in Cannington and Caledonia Avenue in Maylands.

2 Prior to this the Public Transport Authority were investigating options for the removal of at-grade crossings in the metropolitan area which included rail-over-road at the Welshpool Road crossing and road-over-rail at the Hamilton Street crossing. It was always planned that the Wharf Street crossing would be removed.

3 Due to the success of the elevated rail systems being installed in the eastern states, the Metronet team considered these options for Oats Street and Wharf Street and also looked at adjacent road crossings and railway stations.

4 In consultation with local government, two packages of projects were developed around the Oats Street crossing and the Wharf Street crossing.

5 The Oats Street package is from Mint Street to Welshpool Road. It includes the Mint Street/Archer Street, Oats Street and Welshpool Road road crossings; and the Carlisle, Oats Street and Welshpool Stations. Numerous options were considered including combinations of elevated rail at crossings and stations, road-over-rail at crossings and sinking sections of the rail.

6 The Welshpool Road crossing and the Welshpool Station are located within the City. Two options for Welshpool Road were considered being the rail-over-road and the road-over-rail. The Welshpool Station was planned to be closed, however potential future provisions were noted.

7 The Wharf Street package is from Hamilton Street to William Street. It includes the Hamilton Street, Wharf Street, Gerard Street and William Street road crossings; and the Queens Park, Cannington and Beckenham Stations. Numerous options were considered including combinations of elevated rail at crossings and stations, road-over-rail at crossings and crossing closures.

8 The majority of the works are within the City of Canning, with the William Street crossing and the Beckenham Station located within the City of Gosnells. Two options for Hamilton Street were considered being the rail-over-road and the road-over-rail. Two options for Queens Park Station/Wharf Street were considered being elevation or remaining at-grade with Wharf Street closed. The option to elevate the Cannington Station and remove the Gerard Street Bridge was also considered.

9 Metronet were intending to undertake business cases for each option and undertake community consultation on these options.

10 The State Government as part of the 2019/2020 Budget and the Federal Government as part of the 2019 Federal election have allocated $415M on a 50/50 split for the Oats Street package of works. There is no current funding allocation for the Wharf Street package of works.

DETAILS

11 On 16 June 2020, the State Government announced the plans for the Inner Armadale Line Level Crossing Removals. The City’s Officers were briefed on the pending announcement on 15 June 2020 and Attachments 1 and 2 show the relevant fact sheets produced by the Public Transport Authority (PTA) which provides more information and identifies opportunities for feedback.

12 The Mint Street, Oats Street and Welshpool Road proposal has been reduced to two options as detailed below. In relation to the City of Canning both options are the same and the following is proposed:

a) Welshpool Road will be grade separated with rail-over-road.

b) The Welshpool Station will be removed.

13 The grade separation of Welshpool Road with rail-over-road as proposed is the City’s preferred option. Land is reserved on the Metropolitan Region Scheme (MRS) for road-over-rail, however this option would have a negative impact on access to adjacent properties. The Welshpool Road – Sevenoaks Street intersection will be upgraded as part of the project, and with the removal of the rail crossing signals, traffic congestion and travel delays will be reduced resulting in significant improvement to the road network. The restricted access vehicle (RAV) freight routes for the industrial/business community will also benefit from this road upgrade and enable the rationalisation of these freight routes through the residential areas of Bentley.

14 The closure of the Welshpool Station is not an unexpected outcome and its likely removal was acknowledged in the City of Canning Integrated Transport Strategy (ITS) 2015. It is the City’s preference that the Welshpool Station is retained or provisions are made for the station to be accommodated in the future. Whilst the removal of the station will be seen as a negative for some local residents, the PTA has advised that improved bus facilities and services will be provided in the surrounding area and providing a link to the new Oats Street Bus/Rail Interchange.

15 Within the City’s draft submission (Attachment 3) to Metronet the support for retaining the Welshpool Station from a strategic planning perspective are discussed.


Page 51


16 The Hamilton Street, Wharf Street and William Street proposal has been reduced to two options as detailed below. In relation to the City of Canning the following is proposed:

a) Hamilton Street will be grade separated with road-over-rail for both options.

b) Wharf Street and the Queens Park Station will be elevated for option 1.

c) Wharf Street will be closed and Queens Park Station will remain as is for option 2.

17 Excluded from the two options is the elevation of the Cannington Station and the removal of the Gerard Street Bridge. PTA has advised that this is a separate project being considered by them and it does not relate to level crossing removals.

18 The proposal for Hamilton Street is the same under both options. At Hamilton Street the MRS and Local Planning Scheme 42 reserves land to accommodate the road-over-rail option at this location. This has been planned for many years and is similar to what currently exists at the Gerard Street Bridge. Whilst this option will improve safety and accessibility for local residents, there may be an opportunity to advocate for an even better outcome if the rail line is elevated and connected with the elevated rail line at Queens Park and Wharf Street as per Option 1.

19 Option 1 shows the elevation of the Queens Park Station and Wharf Street which is the City’s preferred option. The City should strongly advocate for this option which will provide a road link between Cannington and Queens Park adjacent to the Cannington Leisureplex and the western area of the Canning City Centre. A new elevated Queens Park Train Station will provide opportunities for high amenity public spaces underneath the rail line.

20 Option 2 will result in the Wharf Street crossing being removed and no changes to the Queens Park Train Station. This option should not be supported.

21 PTA has advised that the Cannington Train Station upgrade is outside the scope of the level crossing removal project and that there are a number of issues that need to be addressed at the station including the current platforms cannot accommodate a six car train and there is a lack of parking for buses to service the bus/rail interchange.

22 The elevation of the Cannington Train Station will enable a bus station to be constructed beneath the station, however it will require the Gerard Street Bridge to be removed and an at-grade road link will need to be constructed on this alignment. PTA advised that given Cannington Train Station’s high usage and its pivotal location opposite Cecil Avenue within a designated Strategic Metropolitan Centre, it is likely to be upgraded in the near future.

23 The City should advocate for the Cannington Station and Gerard Street Bridge removal works to be brought forward and undertaken in conjunction with the Queens Park works to the north and the Beckenham Station works to the south.

24 Within the City’s submission (refer Attachment 3) to Metronet the support for the full elevation of the rail between Hamilton Street and Gerard Street to support the Canning City Centre, a Strategic Metropolitan Centre, are discussed.

25 Attachment 4 shows the longitudinal section and plan for elevated rail between Hamilton Street and Gerard Street that is recommended.

CONSIDERATIONS

Legal Compliance

26 Not applicable.

Policy Implications

27 Not applicable.


Business Plan

28 Not applicable.

Internal Budget

29 When constructed all works will be funded as part of the Metronet project. It is likely that with the elevated rail option the City will be responsible for maintenance under the elevated rail after construction and a maintenance period.

Asset Management

30 The Metronet Inner Armadale Line Level Crossing Removals will result in the significant upgrade of City road, path and verge assets resulting in improved safety, reduced delays and increased capacity.


31 The new Sustainability policy was adopted 18 June 2019. The City is now working towards determining a set of City-wide targets, which will provide measurable criteria for sustainability progress assessment.

32 In advance of these targets having been developed by the City and endorsed by Council, this project addresses Sustainability Policy CM194 - Commitment 4 – A commitment to climate responsive urban development. This is achieved by undertaking land-use planning that takes an integrated, transit-oriented design approach to facilitate accessibility, mobility and appropriate local economic growth.

b) Apply to be part of one of the two community reference groups that will workshop ideas and concepts as the planning process progresses. The North group will focus on Oats Street, Mint Street and Welshpool Road, including Carlisle, Oats Street and Welshpool stations; while the South group will focus on Wharf Street, Hamilton Street and William Street including Queens Park, Cannington and Beckenham stations.

34 There were two online sessions to speak directly with Metronet’s team. The Oats Street, Mint Street and Welshpool Road session was on 2 July 2020 and the Wharf Street, Hamilton Street and William Street session was on 9 July 2020. Elected Members have received a deputation on the Project from Metronet at its Strategic Information Briefing (SIB) held on 7 July 2020.

CITY OF CANNING SUBMISSION TO METRONET

The uty of Canning (the City) appreciates the opportunity to provide feedback to Metronet on the Inner Armadale line Levet Crossmg Removals proposal.

In principle the City supports the removal of the at.grade crossings along the Armada le Line.

The City's position on t e Inner Armada le Line Level Crossing Removals proposa I is summarised below.

Mint Street Oats Street and Welsh ool Road Pro osal

This proposal s from M nt Stre t to Welshpool Ro d. It Includes the Min Str et/ Arch r Street, Oats Street and Welshpool Road road crossings: and the Carlisle, Oats Street and Welshpool Stations.

The below comments relate to the wo in the City of Canning ch In I de crossing and the Welshpool Station.

Welshpool Road

The City supports

Opportuniti :

propos d r ii-over-road op Ion a Wel$hpool Road.

Welshpool Road

• Further works ould be undertaken in relatio to the ultimate configuration of the Welshpool Road - Sevenoaks S reet intersect·on.

• Further work should be un ertaken in relation to the extent of the Metropolitan Region Sch me Other R gion I Road r t,on on dj cent prop rti s.

Welshpool Station

The City's primary posi t ion is reasons for

proposl its do ur d to th low us e, echnical requlrem n and cost. Ho ver, If Welshpool

St Ion cannot be r tain d t this stag , it is imp rative to !low pace and location for its

reinstatement at a later s ge. Th W Is pool St tlon w II b an essential sta on In the long t rm for

follow ng reasons:

• The adjacent Albany Highway Activity Corridor is now app oved in the City's la est Gazetted Local Pl nning scheme No. 42. The c0<rldor will allow for signi cant denslficatlon with more bus nesses and r id n living clos r to th railway lln In th s ar a.

• Located within this Activity Corridor si th Bentley Shopping C ntr , which Is exp ct d to grow and provide more services a d employment wi hin the location vith the obvious benefits o a train station at Welshpool in the longer-term future.

• The Ben ey 360 redevelopment area, with significant infill development opportunities, is also loca ed relatively close by with excellent pedestrian and bicycle lin s to a future sta Ion in Welshpool.


Page 62


• A future Welshpool Station will also provide more transport modes to employees within the industrial area and future activated bany Highway oorridor. Th area is already

xp rienclng some n gative imp cts of excesslv pr,vate vehicle us and partclng ,n the rea.

Opportunities:

• If t e height of the current Le ch Highway overpass preven he co struction of a station then consld ration hould be given to repl clng th Leach Highway brld in the futur .

• Main Roads WA are planning to constru a second bridge on the stem s de of the xistln bridge as part of the L ach Highway - Welshpool Road grade sep ra ion works which will commence this year. Ensure that the new bridge is constructed at th appropriate level.

Hamilton Street Wharf Street and William Street Pro osal

This proposal is from Hamilton Street to William Street. I nclude$ he Hamilton Street, Wharf Street, G rard Str and WIii am Street road cross ngs; and e Q, ns Pa k, Cannington and B denham Stations.

The below comments relate to the wortcs in the City of Cann·ng. W 11st the William Street crossing

and the Bee enham Station are located in the City o Gosne.l ls the City supports the proposed

elevated rail at this location.

Hamilton Street

The City strongly advocates for th l!)(ten on of elevated rail to Include the Hamilton Str t crossing

for the following reaso s;

• Havin an undul ting/roller-coaster-Ii r ii lin , lev ted in ce in ar as and at gr e in others, wlll no daub in as th nols lev Is, specially in th d clln areas.

• Th con ruction f a road-av ,-rail at Hamilton Stre t w II creat a spatialty complex installation which will hav several negative consequences for pedestrians, residents and landscaping opportunities.

• On the contrary, an elevated rail will free up land for development and landsc ping and in doing so, er ate a much be er living environment in the ar a.

Opportunities:

• Whilst the M ropoh n Region Scheme Other Regional Roads reserva ion is in pf ce for the proposed road-a er-road op ·on, elevated rail optlon would fr up 17,000m2 of land for residential development.


Page 63


Queens Park Station and Wharf Street

The City strongly advocates for option 1 bei11g t e elevated Queens Park Station and Wharf Street for t e following reasons:

• e Que-e- s Park Local Structure Plan guides redevelopment around t e Queens Park Train St tion to deliv r unified transit ori nted dev lopment that maximises public ransport connectivity. This second substantial activity c ntre along th Armadal rai l line Is pr diet d to deliver up to 3,400 dwellings.

• Minimum height and density provisions, combined with an active Design Review Panel are resulting in far improved built form outcomes in the Queens Park are

• The City has purchased strategic landholdings in the vicini o Que bring forward good d velopment outcomes.

Cannington Station and Gerard Street

Park Train Station to

The City requests that the proposed elevated rail is ext n to includ the cannington Station nd th remov I of the Gerard Sae-et Bridge for th following reasons:

• Th Oty h s a trateg c role with nth S t ' rowth pl os and ~nomy that appears to b und rstated, and the Canning City Cen tr Activ ty C ntr off rs a ttue opportunity to act as an alternate economic centre to the CBD, similar to how Freman e and Joondalup are p05itioned.

• Extending el vated ra I from Q eens Park Sta ·oo over to Cannington Station will provide the much n ed d 'Step Change' oppo un ty for City to b a I ad rand substantially lncrea the City C ntre's future purpose as a truly integrated activity centre. It will pos·tion cannington as an altem te investm nt and business location to the Perth CBD to create Ccmnlng Qty Centre as an lntegrat d Transport Solution.

Opportunitl s:

• Outside of the Perth 0, a truly vibrant and economically sustainable Oty Centre tends to be a small oode coverin s y 3 to 4 hectare of land with a dear and mana d transition o the surrounding low rd nslty development, all posltioned to ngage directly with the Centre.

• Th canning City Centre Activity Centre and Metronet are bel g delive ed as separate initiaf es.

• Cannington Station should be integra ed into the Metronet proposal to provide the seamless user experience expected of any contemporary activity centre. It should also increase the comm rcial sust in bility of the area, m ximising the u e oft p ce vailable, achieving critic I population mass early and being known as a k y destination with uniqu identity and audience.


Page 64


• The proposed solution to integrate the elevated rail and the station is also naocially superior, ma>timising valuable GFA across the site. The target should be to substantially offset the transport Infrastructure costs thr01.1 h development returns.

• An integrat d and elevated tation solution is commonplace across the country and he world, th many older transit orl ntated destlnat ons cmrently struggling to adjust and lmprov

past narrow transport thinking.

• The opportunity is to ensure the new station development at Cannington facili ates rationalisation of the surrounding land and integration of development over time.

• The design integration that is suitable and commercially viable for Cannington is yet to be determin d, but does not necessarily need o involve incre sed infrastru ure costs to the State. The solut on below ls an nitia1 Id a to be tested: o Proposes a new raised Station. o Rationalises Railway Parade to free up developable tan and brl ~ va ion closer to the

Station and Activity Centre Core. o Allows for Developm nt Rights over the Station n, Sevenoaks Street improving

development integration, end user experience and commercial sustainability.

N. c~,.

• Importantly ab<> c uld b stag d s the market nd land value catche up, owever it's Important that the underlying transport solu on allows for the future development outcome.

Rationale:

• Cannin City Centre is the t nth sta on from t CBO on the Armadale line, howev r on limited stops services is the fourth/ fifth stop. It is also the first uue activity centre. That is, all of the other stops are constrained and while they will support development growth in the surrounding re will not upport true integra ed city c ntre developm nt.

• Whilst the current Canning City Centre ACP supports increased density in order of 10,000 new dw I lings, th s Is short term d nslty and will not ach eve th act vat d centre des red In the long-term, particularly as this density is spread along Cecil Avenue and the surrounding neig bourhood .


Page 65


• The current Metronet business case has potenf lly not consider~ he overall economic proposition o integrated development in partnership with industry, which if completed would b lance then d for up front c.apital with longer t rm returns.

• By eleva ing the rail to cannington and reposi ioning t e canning City Centre as proposed Integrated transport solution, this In tiatlv II become of State s gnlficance given th potential economic return the City Centre could provide as an active activity centre beyond what is currently planned.

The below plan shows the extent of th elevated rail betwe n Hamllton Street and G rard 5 t and

includes the elevation of the Queens Park and Cannington Stations. Incorporated into this plan is the

construction of a b s interchange below the rai l. The existing bus intercha ge at the Cannington

Station has insufficient room for the c-Urrent bus demand. The uty, or Ing with the Public Transport

Authority are proposing to construct bus storage within the road reserve which is adcnowledged to be

a short term solution.

EN-016-20 Request for Renaming of Riverton Pavilion

PROGRAM: Canning Environment

SUB PROGRAM: Parks & Place Improvement Canning

FILE REF: Q20/233


REPORTING OFFICER: Mary Ross - Manager Natural Areas and Conservation

RESPONSIBLE OFFICER: Warren Bow - Director Canning Environment

Strategic Plan Theme: CONNECT - An inclusive, safe and vibrant community. Community Goal: Viable community groups, clubs and organisations. Council Strategy: Community groups with capacity to meet members’ needs and grow

as needed.


Attachments: 1. Request for Re-naming Riverton Pavilion - Letter from Riverton Football Club (D20/33036).

2. Policy CM188 - Naming of Parks, Park Features, Community Buildings, Recognition of Long and Exemplary Service and Historic Places and Events (D19/93917).

In Brief:

The Riverton Football Club has made a request for the Riverton Pavilion at Riverton Park to be re-named to honour Mr Vic Varischetti, for his long service of over 50 years to the Riverton Football Club. Council is asked to support the Officer Recommendation because:

a) Re-naming the pavilion ‘Varischetti Pavilion’ is in accordance with the provisions of Policy CM 188, with regard to the recognition of long and exemplary service.

b) This would recognise the long and dedicated community service of the Varischetti family, to the Riverton Football Club by Mr Varischetti, as well as to the Herald Avenue Senior Citizens Centre, where Mrs Varischetti has been active for many years.

c) There is an established precedent for re-naming sports pavilions to recognise long and exemplary service. Two sports pavilions; Merv McIntosh Pavilion at Wyong Reserve and Harry Turner Pavilion at Queens Park Reserve, recognise the contributions of these individuals to the local sporting community.

Council may consider not supporting the City of Canning (the City) Officer Recommendation and declining Riverton Football Club’s request, on the basis that there are limited venues available for use to recognise community service via renaming. However, 50 years of continuing service is a notable contribution to the Canning community.

Should Council not support the re-naming of the building, it may wish to consider recognising Mr Varischetti or the Varischetti family in another way, as set out in Policy CM188 and in this report.

Page 69


BACKGROUND

1 In 2001, the Riverton Football Club (the Club) made a request for a room in the newly built Riverton Pavilion to be named after a long-serving active life member of the Club, to acknowledge his approximately 30 years of voluntary service. The application did not name the member because the Club did not want to raise community expectations or to pre-empt Council’s decision. In its application, the Club noted that, as 2001 was the ‘Year of the Volunteer’, recognition of the long service of the member would be particularly appropriate.

2 Council declined the application because there was no mechanism established to enable the recognition of long and exemplary service, apart from the City of Canning’s Policy 123: Sign Control – Commemorative and Historic Plaques, which only allowed commemoration of persons who were no longer living.

3 The report to Council in 2001 also noted that the naming of individual rooms in buildings would lead to confusion and that the numbers of people worthy of recognition for their service to the community would outnumber the facilities available for re-naming.

DETAILS

4 On the 17 February 2020, the City received an application from the Riverton Football Club dated 13 February 2020, addressed to Councillor Ben Kunze (refer Attachment 1), requesting the re-naming of Riverton Pavilion to recognise the long and exemplary service of Club member Mr Vic Varischetti.

5 The letter explained that Mr Varischetti is one of the Club’s founding members and has been a member for 51 years. He has held many executive positions, including as President for several years and remained on the Club’s Executive Committee until 2015.

6 Further detail on Mr Varischetti’s exemplary service provided by the Club, includes that he has been an advocate for children playing sport, coaching many junior teams in Australian Rules football and assisted the foundation of the Rossmoyne Junior Football Club.

7 Councillor Ben Kunze provided additional information regarding the Varischetti family’s contribution to the Herald Avenue Senior Citizens’ Centre (the Centre), specifically Mr Varischetti’s wife Audrey Varischetti, who has been active at the Centre for many years, including as President and that Mr Varischetti has also been an active member of the Centre.

CONSIDERATIONS

Legal Compliance

8 Not applicable.

Policy Implications

9 Council adopted City Policy CM169: Recognition of Service to the City and/or Community Organisations in 2006. However, Clause 10.2 stated ‘Names that commemorate any person, either living or deceased, will not be considered for a building.’

10 In 2009 Council adopted a new policy - CM188: Naming of Parks, Park Features, Community Buildings, Recognition of Long and Exemplary Service and Commemoration of Individuals and Events; which included in one policy, provisions previously covered in separate policies. Policy CM188 no longer prohibits the naming of buildings to commemorate persons.


Page 70


11 At the Ordinary Council Meeting held on 18 June 2019, Council adopted revised Policy CM188: Naming of Parks, Park Features, Community Buildings, Recognition of Long and Exemplary Service and Historic Places and Event’s (refer Attachment 2). Clause 3(2) of the Policy states that ‘all proposals for naming and re-naming will be reported to Council for determination prior to submission to Landgate’. While the naming of parks requires approval from Landgate, the naming or re-naming of buildings does not.

12 Clause 3(3) of the Policy states that ‘proposals for naming community buildings, parks or features in parks after an individual will only be considered when the individual meets the criteria for long and exemplary service’. The definition of ‘long service’ includes that ‘the person has been a member of a local community group or organisation for at least ten (10) years’ and the definition of ‘exemplary service’ includes that ‘the person has made a significant contribution to the local community through voluntary input into a local community organisation such as a sporting club.’

13 Mr Varischetti’s service, as detailed in the Attachment 1 of this Report, clearly meets the definition of long and exemplary service

14 Policy CM188: Naming of Parks, Park Features, Community Buildings, Recognition of Long and Exemplary Service and Historic Places and Event’s, provides several options for the recognition of long and exemplary service in Clause 4 (1):

a) The naming or renaming of a park, a feature in a park or a community building.

b) The mounting of an honour plaque on an interior wall of a community building.

c) The mounting of an honour plaque on another type of structure, for example the Environmental Volunteers Honour Board at the Canning River Eco Education Centre.

d) The mounting of an honour plaque on a durable park asset such as a bench, shelter, drinking fountain.

e) The planting of a tree with a plaque on a plinth installed nearby.

15 Council would have the option to nominate an alternative form of recognition of Mr Varischetti’s service under Clause 4(3) - ‘Applicants may nominate a particular method to recognise an individual, however determination of the most appropriate method remains with Council.’

16 Revised Policy CM188 defines a ‘community building’ as ‘a building managed by the City that is intended for community use’. The City manages 36 community buildings, not counting toilet and ablution blocks. There are five community centres; of which one is owned by the State Government, 10 pavilions; of which Riverton Pavilion is one, four public halls, 11 change rooms, four libraries; one of which is State Government owned, and two Leisureplexes.


Business Plan

17 Building names are currently displayed on free-standing signs installed close to the building entrance. These currently cost $788 to supply and install. Should Council determine to approve the re-naming of the Riverton Pavilion, a new name sign would need to be provided.

Internal Budget

18 Should Council approve the re-naming of Riverton Pavilion, records referring to Riverton Pavilion would need to be updated to reflect the name change and users of the Riverton Pavilion would need to be advised of the change. These activities could be accommodated within existing staff allocations.

19 If endorsed by Council, the responsibility for the cost of the signage would remain with the Riverton Football Club as per clause 6 (1) of Policy CM188.


Page 71


Asset Management

20 Should Council approve the re-naming of Riverton Pavilion, the building name sign would be included in the City’s asset database.


21 Not applicable.

Consultation

22 The City contacted regular users of Riverton Pavilion to advise them of the request to re-name the building and sought comments on the proposal. No responses were received from regular users.

COMMENT

23 When providing the letter from the Riverton Football Club and additional information on the Varischetti family, Councillor Ben Kunze stated that he is a junior life member of the Riverton Roos Junior Football Club.

24 Another member of the Varischetti family has previously been recognised within the Canning Community. At the Ordinary Council Meeting held 29 January 2002, Council considered a report regarding a request from Mr Wayne Cannell, for Council to provide a bench with a plaque commemorating his grandmother Mrs Santina Varischetti, near the canoe launching ramp at Riverton Bridge.

25 Mrs Varischetti had purchased land beside Riverton Bridge in 1935. Her husband died in 1942 and she raised 11 children there. Portions of the land were compulsorily re-acquired for river reserve, drainage reserve and road and recreation purposes. Council resolved to waive the clause in the guiding policy at the time, Administrative Policy 123: Sign Control – Commemorative and Historic Plaques, and install the bench at the City’s expense with the cost for the plaque at the applicant’s expense, in view of Mrs Varischetti’s pioneering association with the area. The report noted that many of Mrs Varischetti’s descendants still lived in the area.

26 Since endorsement of Policy CM188 in June 2019, the City has received only this request for naming one of its buildings in recognition of long and exemplary community service.

27 Council has the option to decline the Riverton Football Club’s request to rename Riverton Pavilion on the basis that this may generate further requests for renaming of other community buildings, of which there is a limited number.

28 Further, there is also some degree of risk in naming a building after an individual or individuals. Each application, however, is based on the information current at the time that Council considers the application.

29 The Policy does allow for review of decisions, which would require subsequent referral to Council, in the event of unforeseen changes in circumstances surrounding the recognised individual(s).

30 There are two community buildings in the City that are named after individuals; the Merv McIntosh Pavilion on Wyong Reserve in Bentley and the Harry Turner Pavilion on Queens Park Reserve in Queens Park.

31 Merv McIntosh was a well-known state footballer, playing over 17 years from 1939 to 1956 and winning several medals; including three Sandover Medals for Best and Fairest Player and was selected for the inaugural All Australian team.

32 Harry Turner was a life member of three football clubs (Canning, Perth and Queens Park) as well as the Victoria Park Baseball Club. His service to sporting clubs started in the early 1950s and continued to his death in 2010. He served in various capacities at different clubs including as a committee member, volunteer, reserves player, league player, coach, team manager and president. He was an inductee into the WA Boxing Hall of Fame for being middleweight boxing champion of Western Australia in the 1950s and early 1960s.

33 There was a third community building named after an individual, the ‘Bill Cole Centre’ which was a youth centre at Riverton Park. The building was demolished in 1998 to make way for the construction of the Riverton Leisureplex. The function room in the Leisureplex is named the Bill Cole Function Room. Bill Cole was a long-serving Councillor from 1952, serving several terms on the Canning Roads Board, the Shire of Canning and the Town of Canning until he retired in 1973.


Page 73


34 Should Council determine that the renaming of the Riverton Pavilion is appropriate, it has the option either to name the Riverton Pavilion the ‘Vic Varischetti Pavilion’, or more simply the ‘Varischetti Pavilion’. The renaming of the Riverton Pavilion as the ‘Varischetti Pavilion’ would encompass not only Mr Varischetti’s long and exemplary community service, but also Mrs Varischetti and the long association the Varischetti family has with the City of Canning.

35 Alternatively, Council may wish to recognise the Varischetti’s via the mounting of an honour plaque on an interior wall of the Riverton Pavilion.

VOTING REQUIREMENT

DETAILS

2 Members received updates on the Strategic Waste Management Plan implementation, upcoming activities and opportunities to support further community engagement in the waste area.

3 An update on the progress of the City’s Tree Planting Program was provided. The City is undertaking a range of programs and initiatives to enhance the efficiency and success of the Tree Planting Program, including the use of digital technology to record the location of trees and enhance water use on newly planted trees. Residents were encouraged to support the Urban Forest Strategy by collecting and planting a free tree on 14 June 2020.

4 Members received an update on the sustainability initiatives being undertaken by the City. This included an update on the successful Changing Your World Conference and Fair, CREEC Redevelopment Project, Sustainability Reporting Platform development, Subsidised Equipment Program and the progress of the potential for a Solar Farm.

11 The new Sustainability Policy CM194 was adopted 18 June 2019. The City is now working towards determining a set of City-wide targets, which will provide measurable criteria for sustainability progress assessment. SEAG addresses several Sustainability Policy CM194 commitments:

12 Principle 6: A commitment to building community capital, social sustainability and a thriving local economy is addressed by the community networks established by SEAG members, providing information and raising issues via SEAG.

13 SEAG continues to address Principle 8: A commitment to developing partnership and increasing participation in local, state, national and international sustainability opportunities, by utilising best practice approaches to their annual work plans, and providing comment on sustainability and environment matters.

Consultation

14 Following the election of a new Council in October 2015, Elected Members expressed a desire to engage with various sectors of the Community. Advisory Groups were established as one method of engagement. Nominations were invited from the Canning community in a widespread media campaign, and the Advisory Groups were formed in mid-2016.

15 A review of the Advisory Groups Terms of Reference took place, and the amended Terms of Reference were adopted at the 17 October 2017 Ordinary Council meeting.


16 Not applicable.

COMMENT

17 The next meeting of the Sustainability and Environment Advisory Group is scheduled for Thursday, 20 July 2020 at the Canning River Eco Education Centre, if Covid-19 restrictions permit. Elected Members may attend if they wish. SEAG has opted to meet every two months and continues to perform at a high level. SEAG members continue to provide City Officers with significant input into relevant strategy and policy development and offer a conduit for community feedback on sustainability and environment topics.
