Lord Mayor’s Verbal Report

Lord Mayor addressed the Chamber as follow:

‘Ladies and gentlemen, Members, boy and girls. Welcome to the Council meeting of Tuesday, the 30th of June 2015, at 6.05 pm I formally declare the meeting open.

Ladies and gentlemen I might first say welcome to the Town Hall, welcome to the Adelaide City Council Chamber. I’ve long believed, we’ve long believed in participative democracy so it is wonderful to see so many people in the Chamber tonight, it’s something I’ve long advocated for and thank you for responding.

I must share with my fellow Members and members of the general public, due to the numbers this evening we in fact have a video link in the Chamber, ladies and gentlemen, so there is a camera sitting in the back there, it is filming tonight’s proceedings which is being played out in the Queen Adelaide Room for those that currently cannot fit in the Chamber.

I must also say on that note of participative democracy that this would be some of the correspondence that I have received as your Lord Mayor in the last week alone and so on behalf of myself and fellow Elected Members I would like to thank everyone for making the effort to communicate with us. All received, all read, all noted so thank you very much.’

3


Comment that staff appear to have approved a commercial business to operate in Light Square without any consultation.

Comment that a fitness business has been given a permit by Adelaide City Council to run a commercial business in the Square where the founder of our City is buried.

Suggest the elected members should take urgent action to restrain the administration from issuing any such permits, similarly to O-Bahn project, illegitimate, invalid, unlawful and unconscionable.

Comment that Ranelagh Lane which runs parallel to Waymouth and Elizabeth St of the south western corner of Light Square is a public road has been built upon and used for a private yard and there’s a commercial carpark for 10 spaces.

Comment that the road is being illegitimately occupied and it cannot be fenced in nor sold off as commercial carparking.

Deputations

3. Agenda Item 7 – Ms Sally Neville – Deputation - Address to Council – Survey Findings from Bricks and Mortar Hospitality Businesses on the Impact of Mad March Events [2014/04835] [C]

Ms Sally Neville addressed the Council to:

Distribute a document presenting survey findings on the impact of Mad March events.

Advise that the restaurant and catering Industry in Adelaide supports the Adelaide Fringe and wants it to be amongst the best in the world.

Comment that there is no justification to grow visitation by sacrificing the sustainability of other Adelaide businesses.

Comment that the future of the sector is positive in that the revenue generated through meals out of home continues to grow as the community sees dining as a significant and aspirational leisure activity.

Advise that the sector employs 32600 staff in SA and is expected to grow to 35400 by 2018, a growth of 8.5%.

Comment that historically restaurants and cafes in the City of Adelaide have benefited from the influx of visitation to the city through mad March.

Comment that The Garden of Unearthly Delights has grown in capacity year on year, Gluttony was introduced and increased capacity further along with Surrender, the Depot then Royal Croquet Club.

4


Comment that as much as these Fringe venues increase ticket sales for the fringe, these venues have also grown in their delivery of food and beverage and that the scale of that increase over the years has eroded the revenues in traditional venues and changed the behaviour of fringe visitors.

Comment that in particular, the introduction of the door fee by Royal Croquet Club has meant the attendees will stay longer and consume their food and beverage experience within that venue so as not to incur additional fees coming and going.

Comment that this creates a vacuum of trade with the City operators, whose business model relies on a peak of revenues in March to offset the slow times of winter.

Advise that a survey revealed that 70% of operators believe their revenues were negatively impacted, some by up to 70%.

Comment that Council’s appear to be playing favourites to ‘incentify’ the popups while taxing and regulating standalone businesses to their detriment.

Comment that restaurateurs are entrepreneurs too.

Provide Council with recommendations moving forward as to how to address these issues.

The Lord Mayor thanked Ms Sally Neville for her address and response to questions.

Report of APLA

11. Agenda Item 12 - Advice of the Adelaide Park Lands Authority Board meeting held on 25 June 2015 [2011/00327] [C]

Moved by the Deputy Lord Mayor (Councillor Abiad), Seconded by Councillor Martin -

That Council notes the following advice from the Adelaide Park Lands Authority:

1. Ministerial Park Lands Zone DPA

That the Adelaide Park Lands Authority advises the Council and State Government that APLA:

1. Notes that the Adelaide Park Lands Act 2005 was established to:

1.1 provide a legislative framework that promotes the special status, attributes and character of the Adelaide Park Lands; and

1.2 provide for the protection of those Park Lands and for their management as a world-class asset to be preserved as an urban park for the benefit of present and future generations.

28


2. Notes that when the Adelaide Park Lands Act 2005 was established, amendments were specifically made to the Development Act 1993, to exclude the operation of Section 46 (Major Projects) and Section 49 (Crown Development and Public Infrastructure) in the Adelaide Park Lands.

3. Supports appropriate development in the Adelaide Park Lands, including a streamlined assessment process for public infrastructure projects where there has been appropriate community and stakeholder engagement and the broader public benefit is clearly quantified and warranted.

4. Objects to the current DPA in that it utilises the broad definition of public infrastructure in the Development Act 1993 that has the potential to expose the Park Lands to inappropriate land uses without adequate understanding of the potential consequences on the special status and character attributed to the Adelaide Park Lands.

5. Makes a submission to the Development Policy Advisory Committee that recommends:

5.1 Acknowledgement that the Adelaide Park Lands are of national heritage significance.

5.2 Additional stakeholder engagement and coordination to justify the policy amendments is undertaken.

5.3 The DPA be amended to:

5.3.1 Allow merit assessment process for the following public infrastructure projects, subject to necessary refinements to proposed policy that is specific to the following projects only:

5.3.1.1 O-Bahn City Access Project

5.3.1.2 Works associated with the Torrens Junction Project

5.3.1.3 Pedestrian and cycle infrastructure over the River Torrens Temporary construction work

5.3.2 In relation to the intent of the State Government to locate a new City high school in Botanic Park Policy Area 19, not support this land use as a merit form of development but rather as a non-complying as is the current situation.

5.3.3 Retain the non-complying assessment process for public infrastructure projects that are unknown at this time; and

5.3.4 Further planning for the appropriate provision of public infrastructure in the Adelaide Park Lands occurs through the current review of the Adelaide Park Lands Management Strategy (APLMS), which is being undertaken by APLA to be endorsed by Adelaide City Council and State Government.

29


6. Notes the broader need to undertake a Development Plan Amendment to provide alignment with relevant strategic planning documents once the APLMS review has concluded.

2. Park Lands Leasing and Licensing Policy

That the Adelaide Park Lands Authority advises Council:

1. That it supports the endorsement of the draft Park Lands Leasing and Licensing Policy as shown on Attachment A to Item 7 on the Agenda for the meeting of the Board of the Adelaide Park Lands Authority held on 25 June 2015.

3. Enhancement of Narnungga (Park 25) as per the ‘Sports Infrastructure Master Plan – West and South Park Lands Regional Sports Areas’


1. A high priority project of the endorsed Sports Infrastructure Master Plan - West and South Park Lands Regional Sports Areas, is the establishment of a community sports hub incorporating the consolidation of buildings and car parking and establishment of a beach sports facility in Narnungga (Park 25), as shown at Attachment A to Item 8 listed on the Agenda for the meeting of the Board of the Adelaide Park Lands Authority held on 25 June 2015.

2. It notes the endorsed Sports Infrastructure Master Plan is unfunded and that the investment is ideally stakeholder driven in keeping with Outcome 4 of the Active City Strategy, being to ‘facilitate the enhancement of community sports infrastructure in the City through peak sporting associations and educational institutions’.

3. The proposal by the South Australian Cricket Association (SACA) to enhance Narnungga (Park 25), as shown at Attachment B to Item 8 listed on the Agenda for the meeting of the Board of the Adelaide Park Lands Authority held on 25 June 2015, is consistent with the endorsed Sports Infrastructure Master Plan, the Adelaide Park Lands Management Strategy and Community Land Management Plan, and aligns to the Adelaide Park Lands Emerging Guiding Principles.

4. That the Board supports in principle the proposal by SACA and that Council consider this proposal in line with the recommended directions as described in Attachment C to Item 8 listed on the Agenda for the meeting of the Board of the Adelaide Park Lands Authority held on 25 June 2015 including:

4.1 Consideration by Council of the additional opportunities to complement the sports infrastructure enhancements as shown at Attachment D to Item 8 listed on the Agenda for the meeting of the Board of the Adelaide Park Lands Authority held on 25 June 2015, in order to improve the amenity of Narnungga (Park 25) for informal use

Council Members Reports

13. Agenda Item 15 - Reports from Council Members [2014/04844] [C]

Councillor Simms reported to the Chamber as follows:

‘Thank you Lord Mayor, don’t worry colleagues I won’t speak for a long period of time, I’m sure you’ve heard enough from me tonight but I did just want to brief Councillors on the recent trip I made to Melbourne last week to represent Council at an Urban Forest Masterclass and the focus of that was looking at how to improve greening within city environments. It was a very useful trip, I attended with some representatives of our administration and in particular was very impressed with some of the work that Melbourne City Council is doing in terms of working with stakeholders to progress greening in the city so I have a few ideas for how we can implement that here in Adelaide so watch this space, I look forward to bringing some of those to the Council table in due course. Thank you.’

Councillor Clearihan reported to the Chamber as follows:

‘Thank you Lord Mayor. I’ve been asked to present an award to you from the Property Council of Australia and the award is for the best affordable housing development which was awarded to Council for our Ergo Stage 1 and for those new Councillors I’d just like to provide a few brief pointers before I present this to you.

The Ergo development was begun in 2019 as an affordable housing project and it was progressed, did I say 2009? Oh I’m ahead of myself. 2009. We are very much back to the future aren’t we. And this project was established through some key partnerships with Hindmarsh Development Australia, Homestart Finance and State and Commonwealth Government through various fundings and we’ve been able to provide, in this first stage, 72 apartments for affordable sale and rental. We’ve also been very successful through our master planning process in providing north-south and east-west pedestrian links and also the retention of the former minor works building for future community use and its inclusion within a piazza type setting.

We’ve got 20 national rental affordability scheme apartments, as mentioned previously through the contribution of various government grants and I’m pleased to say that Stage 2 and Stage 3 of this development will be completed before the end of the year.

Prior to just presenting this trophy to you, Lord Mayor, I really did want to say a big thank you to the key members of staff who were involved in steering this project from the onset. Mike Philippou, who was the team leader, unfortunately Mike, well fortunately for him, he’s on six weeks vacation or holiday at the moment but I also wanted to acknowledge Alan Faunt who is now retired from Council and also Nick Pontikinas who I think might be here tonight. I want to acknowledge those three people and the other members of their team for guiding us through what has been an incredibly successful project, something that we really can be very proud of.

So I present that to you Lord Mayor.’

During Councillor Clearihan’s verbal presentation Councillor Moran re-entered the Council Chamber at 8.26 pm.

Councillor Slama reported to the Chamber as follows:

‘Thank you Lord Mayor. Members I won’t bore you any further. This report is in relation to China. Our three deputations have left, left us behind, did most of the talking, in fact a lot of my notes were surrounding what they had to say so we’ll just take theirs as a testimony from a third party which often speaks louder words I think but I just want to acknowledge a couple of quick things about the trip.

We travelled obviously with the Premier, Jay Weatherill, Minister Hamilton-Smith, Ministers Gago and Bignell, 14 Mayors and CEOS of other Councils and 200 businesses from Adelaide and South Australia so it was a massive impact, a massive delegation, a lot of people.

It became evident quite quickly that our Sister City Government counterparts were extremely happy to see some familiar faces and I refer particularly to Kylie Bennetts who joined us on the trip and she was quite often greeted before the Lord Mayor and myself because she had been there before and they place a lot of value on seeing people again and recognising faces and it shows them some good support from this Council.

Also the Director of Foreign Affairs Office in Qingdao, Mr Moo was happy to have a fellow German person on the ground, we spoke most of the time in German. As you probably know Shandong, Adelaide, Qingdao share common ground in German heritage, evident by the infrastructure and architecture that you see there.

So just to wrap up, couple of the main things you may wonder, what does a Councillor and the Lord Mayor do there for five days, well it didn’t stop I had to come home for a holiday clearly. One of the big things that we promoted and need to further develop as a city are the international student education sector, it is so ripe, business conferences, tourism, professional services, direct foreign investment, R&D initiatives, especially in the medical fields and medical equipment and also R&D in the medical field, cultural exchanges in the arts and there are already stories and exchanges of Adelaide businesses looking at taking our cultural events over there, keep your ears peeled on that one

On a daily basis we sat back in between organised forums and discussions with government people we may have sat back in the lobby numerous occasions it wouldn’t be five minutes you’d be approached by a Chinese official or even an Adelaide or South Australian business person who’d tap you on the shoulder and say Councillor or Lord Mayor can you come and join us over here at this discussion and they’ have a group of people around a table from another province or from another city looking for a local government member to be a part of that conversation around the table.

The importance of a local government person, we don’t have a communist regime over here, they do and they may do business deals but it’s not until someone in government says yes it’s ok you can do this, it goes to the next step as you had and so on our side we’re just providing support and feedback for those businesses that travel along the way and it went a long way.

I want to give a couple of particular thanks, firstly obviously the Premier and his Ministers for organising the mission and for the Adelaide City Council to be privileged to be a part of that mission. We did visit two cities, Jinan, not a sister city but part of the Shandong province,

33


that was mainly state based and when we came over to Qingdao on day two or three I think it was, it really became an Adelaide City show and the strength of the sister city really shown.

Also the Lady Mayoress who joined us on the trip, I must say that she was a wealth of information and quite often opened up doors in networking functions and opportunities that we wouldn’t have had otherwise. She did pay her own way by the way.

Kylie Bennetts thank you for organising absolutely everything on our end, it was quite easy for Martin and I we just had to show up, we had the bags, we had the gifts wrapped we just were told to put four gifts in our left pocket and two in our right and pull them out at certain stages and she organised all that and I must say that even the State Development people were impressed by Kylie’s efforts we were very proud to have heron board. Don’t be surprised if we lose her to China.

Chloe in our office also for translating a lot of emails in Chinese. I know she’s probably done about 200 for me and maybe more or the equivalent of that of the Lord Mayor’s in Chinese back to china just saying thank you, good to meet you, we’re welcoming you to our city when you come back etc. etc.

The Department of State Development, in particular Michelle Brown and her staff, Sean Keenihan at the Australia China Business Council for leading the local government portion of the delegation. Peter Lay who’s still here who did run around Qingdao and organised as lot of introductions for us and lastly the businesses of Adelaide and South Australia, thank you for joining us. Thank you.’

The Lord Mayor reported to the Chamber as follows:

‘Councillors if you just wouldn’t mind indulging me very briefly and I will speed read there was a little bit of a miscommunication, yes there was a Lord Mayor’s Presiding Member report about the delegation to China but I also had a verbal report, Deputy Lord Mayor so I’m going to do this extremely quickly, I am conscious of time.

This is just since our last Council meeting, some of the outcomes which have been achieved and what your Lord Mayor has been doing of course which you’ve received mostly in a Friday afternoon report from myself but of course we’ve had a Lord Mayors Precinct Forum, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting the ambassador of Portugal and the ambassador of Greece.

We’ve held a very productive Capital City Committee forum regarding opportunities for growth of the residential sector in the City of Adelaide and I think that there is a very strong level of collaboration between the Council and the State on that opportunity.

I must say members I was extremely pleased to be associated with and have the great privilege of launching the Adelaide City retail strategy 2015 to 2010. Thank you to Jane Booth, Mick O’Neill and the entire team for the extraordinary amount of work, David West who brought that together, that was a great honour for me to do that for the team.

Also we are doing an increasing number of activities for our 175th year of the Adelaide City Council which will accommodate a very big event in October which you will all soon hear about. We had a youth council event here in the City Council. On the weekend we had a rose planting ceremony at Brougham Gardens where we planted 175 City of Adelaide roses, which was lovely.

34


We of course had a Citizenship ceremony in here only last week which are a great privilege as you know members to attend. We had a Civic Reception for the Refugee Welcome Zone which is a very important initiative that we are behind. I spoke at Australian Dance Theatre and Adelaide Rotary events last week and I had the great privilege with Councillor Clearihan of course of attending the Australian Local Government National General Assembly in Canberra where I spoke on two occasions in one day. We have had the pleasure of welcoming a new Bendigo Bank branch to Waymouth St and what a very committed community bank, hats off to them.

But I think the thing which I’m most proud of Members is the rapid acceleration of results, policy and initiatives that we are undertaking in the climate and sustainability space. I must say that the City of Adelaide locally, nationally and internationally in a relatively short period of time has absolutely got kudos in a leadership position for the policies which we’re rolling out and extending to now the commercial community as well as the residential community from the 1st of July. So well done to Dr Adrian Stokes and the entire team who are really driving that agenda, we just have the privilege of championing it, but the hard work is done by others, I think we know that.’

Program Contact No: Kylie Bennetts CM, City and Corporate Governance 8203 7598

Approved: Stephen Haines, Acting Chief Executive Officer

RECOMMENDATION

That Council notes the following advice from the Adelaide Park Lands Authority:

1. Ministerial Park Lands Zone DPA

That the Adelaide Park Lands Authority advises the Council and State Government that APLA:

1. Notes that the Adelaide Park Lands Act 2005 was established to:

1.1 provide a legislative framework that promotes the special status, attributes and character of the Adelaide Park Lands; and

1.2 provide for the protection of those Park Lands and for their management as a world-class asset to be preserved as an urban park for the benefit of present and future generations.

Section 46 (Major Projects) and Section 49 (Crown Development and Public Infrastructure) in the Adelaide Park Lands.

3. Supports appropriate development in the Adelaide Park Lands, including a streamlined assessment process for public infrastructure projects where there has been appropriate community and stakeholder engagement and the broader public benefit is clearly quantified and warranted.

4. Objects to the current DPA in that it utilises the broad definition of public infrastructure in the Development Act 1993 that has the potential to expose the Park Lands to inappropriate land uses without adequate understanding of the potential consequences on the special status and character attributed to the Adelaide Park Lands.

5. Makes a submission to the Development Policy Advisory Committee that recommends:

5.1 Acknowledgement that the Adelaide Park Lands are of national heritage significance.

5.2 Additional stakeholder engagement and coordination to justify the policy amendments is undertaken.

5.3 The DPA be amended to:

5.3.1 Allow merit assessment process for the following public infrastructure projects, subject to necessary refinements to proposed policy that is specific to the following projects only:

5.3.1.1 O-Bahn City Access Project

5.3.1.2 Works associated with the Torrens Junction Project

5.3.1.3 Pedestrian and cycle infrastructure over the River Torrens Temporary construction work

5.3.2 In relation to the intent of the State Government to locate a new City high school in Botanic Park Policy Area 19, not support this land use as a merit form of development but rather as a non-complying as is the current situation.

5.3.3 Retain the non-complying assessment process for public infrastructure projects that are unknown at this time; and

5.3.4 Further planning for the appropriate provision of public infrastructure in the Adelaide Park Lands occurs through the current review of the Adelaide Park Lands Management Strategy (APLMS), which is being undertaken by APLA to be endorsed by Adelaide City Council and State Government.

6. Notes the broader need to undertake a Development Plan Amendment to provide alignment with relevant strategic planning documents once the APLMS review has concluded.
