9.2 Budget Review January 2009

File Ref: 9.24.1 Officer (full name): Robyn Dunstall Officers Consulted (full name): Management Executive

REPORT The Budget Review for the period 1st October to 31st January is the second review that will be presented to Council during 2008/09. The Budget Review comprises the following statements –

• Budget Review Income Statement • Budget Review Balance Sheet • Budget Review Statement of Changes in Equity • Budget Review Cash Flow Statement • Uniform Presentation of Finances • Financial Indicators • Summary of main variances to original budget

REFER ATTACHMENT 9.2 (Page 001)

As at 31st January 2009 the revised year-end projected budget balance is a net surplus of $1,184,700. This includes a capital grant of $315,000 for Goolwa stormwater reuse project, the total cost of the project is $500,000. Since the September Budget Review the operating deficit before capital revenue has been reduced by $243,600 to $995,200; this is mainly attributed to an increase in private works income and a reduction in employee costs. The January Budget Review estimates cash at end of reporting period to be $3,346,500. RECOMMENDATION That Council for the period ended 30th January 2009 adopts a Budget Review with a net surplus of $1,184,700 and an estimated cash at end of reporting period of $3,346,500. That the Annual Business Plan and Budget 2008/09 be amended to reflect the variances.

* Environmental: Positive. Improved efficiency of water resources use. * Social: Positive. Council demonstrates leadership in water management

and has a clear policy for the use of water in parks and reserves.

* Economic: Positive. Reduction in water costs with improved efficiency.

REPORT Alexandrina Council staff have been working with SA Water and the Local Government Association of South Australia to implement more efficient use of water in public open space reserves. SA Water has introduced a ‘Code of Practice: Irrigated Public Open Space’ to provide the tools and reporting models necessary to implement best practice irrigation management in the provision of public open space such as sports fields, parks and reserves. As a part of this program Council Parks and Gardens staff have developed and implemented a Turf and Irrigation Management and Monitoring program to meet the Code of Practice requirements and to achieve continual improvement in water use and management throughout the Council area while maintaining the high quality of Council parks and reserves. The Irrigated Public Open Space Water Use Policy explains the importance of efficient water management to Alexandrina Council and outlines how Council will achieve its goals in this area. REFER ATTACHMENT 13.2 (Page 011) RECOMMENDATION That Council adopt the Irrigated Public Open Space Water Use Policy.

REPORT Pursuant to Section 122 of the Local Government Act 1999, the Council must develop and adopt plans to effectively manage its area, to be collectively known as the Strategic Management Plans. Council’s Strategic Management Plans include:

Community Strategic Plan; Long Term Financial Plan; and Infrastructure and Asset Management Plan

The Community Strategic Plan in particular, sets out the strategic direction for the Alexandrina Council for the period from 2009-2013. The plan identifies the key issues facing the Council and presents specific long-term goals and four year outcomes that will address these challenges. The key objective of the Long Term Financial Plan is financial sustainability in the medium to long term, while still achieving Council’s objectives as specified in its Community Strategic Plan, ensuring that we understand the impact of decisions made today on our future. Council has prepared the Infrastructure & Asset Management Plan to assist in determining the funding impact of our assets. These projections are based on the current understanding of asset management needs over the next 20 years and ensure that assets are maintained at a safe and functional standard that meet community expectations and cater for future growth and demographic changes.

16.2 Grant Community Benefits SA Community Connect - Coastal 'Taste Buddies'

File Ref: 9.24.1 Officer: Chris Lundstrom, Community Connect – Coastal

Coordinator Social: This program builds community and offers Primary

Health education in a social setting. The target group are men, over the age of 60 years, who have become isolated due to ill health, age, disability or taking on the role of carer, losing their spouse or their employment or the role of carer.

Economic: Primary health benefits to individuals translate into economic benefits for the community.

REPORT

The Community Connect program offers short to medium intervention to enable residents of the Alexandrina Council region who have become isolated through age, disability or sickness to be relinked to the community. The program provides services to the Alexandrina Council’s coastal and rural areas. The target group are men over 60 who are lacking social networks, have low self esteem and confidence and lack basic cooking skills. This program offers help with budgeting, menu planning and making healthy food choices. The participants are encouraged to buy fresh, in season and local produce which is then prepared and cooked using healthy methods. The anticipated outcomes are an improvement in the independence of older men and a reduction in social isolation with improved and increased life management skills. This grant of $ 1760.00 will enable Community Connect to run 4 x 6 week sessions of Basic Cooking. Similar programs were very successful during 2007/2008. The 2009 program will be known as “Taste Buddies” and commences in March. Funding is allocated as follows: • $360 Equipment • $450 ($15 per head) educational materials • $800 food and consumerables • $150 Transport The services will meet: The Department for Families and Communities “Connecting the Future” Strategic Agenda. Objective 3: Independence and Community Connection.

17.2 Volunteer Reimbursement Policy

File Ref: 9.24.1 Officer (full name): Pam Eden, Volunteer Program Coordinator Officers Consulted (full name): Kim Vivian, Jenn Cole, Heather Grant Budget Allocation: $2,000 Budget Spent to Date: $ 192-76 Chart of Account: Volunteer Training Support Job Number: 541604 ESD Impact/Benefit:-

* Social: Positive. Alexandrina Council volunteers contribute to the social capital of this community through the support they provide to its many diverse activities.

* Economic: Negative. Due to the current financial crisis and cost of fuel, volunteers are currently requesting reimbursement more frequently than in the past to cover ‘out of pocket’ expenses whilst assisting with Council programs.

REPORT Volunteers willingly give of their time and expertise. Their activities help to build community cohesion, develop community capacity through supporting community programs, develop social inclusiveness through engaging with isolated, frail and vulnerable community members, advocate for the community and as a consequence lift community spirit. Volunteers provide their services without the expectation of monetary reward. However, volunteer involvement is not a cost free exercise because all volunteer workers need to be supported in a similar manner as paid workers. The financial benefit derived by the community from volunteering is enormous. Volunteers at the Centre for Positive Ageing alone donate in excess of 10,000 hours of service to the centre’s programs annually. In monetary terms this equates to a donation to Council of over $200,000.00 annually. Without volunteers the number of services council could provide to the community would be severely decreased or limited. Volunteers are the life blood of most community service programs and as such their contributions need to be acknowledged and valued. The Volunteer Reimbursement Policy has been developed for use across all volunteer involving programs of the Alexandrina Council. Currently there is no consistent policy in place. The aim of this policy is to clearly define what can and cannot be claimed as an out of pocket expense relating to their volunteering role. A second aim of this policy is to set out the procedure for making claims for the reimbursement of out of pocket expenses.

…cont’d

Alexandrina Council


17.2 Volunteer Reimbursement Policy (continued)

The content of this policy has been written with the view of covering all possible situations and contingencies where volunteers may require the reimbursement of out of pocket expenses incurred during the course of their volunteering commitments. REFER ATTACHMENT 17.2 (Page 012) RECOMMENDATION That the Volunteer Reimbursement Policy be adopted.

17.3 Fireworks Display

File Ref: 9.24.1 Officer: Lisa Hoyle From: AAC Fireworks Officers consulted: Steve Ashley ESD Impact/Benefit: -

• Environmental: Minimal effect on parklands • Social: Positive Community event • Economic Positive for local business

REPORT

AAC Fireworks have applied to Council to hold a public fireworks display for the Wooden Boat Festival on Sunday 8th March at 9pm. It is tentatively suggested that the site will be off the Hindmarsh Island “beach” opposite the Goolwa Wharf. Mr. Andrew Fragnito from AAC Fireworks has provided Council with all the necessary qualifications and insurances to conduct such a display. The Councils fireworks delegation states that the Fire Prevention Officer is authorised to approve fireworks displays outside of the fire danger season. As this request is for a fireworks display during the fire danger season and the display is to be held on Council land, approval is required from Council. Standard fireworks conditions would apply:- • A Ninth Schedule permit from CFS ( fire danger season ) or a tenth schedule

permit (total fire ban day) is obtained prior to the event and forwarded to Council no later than 24 hours prior to the date of the event.

• An advertisement is placed in The Times newspaper prior to the event • That the event finish no later than 9.30pm • Compliance with all conditions specified under the Explosives Act, Fire and

Emergency Services Act, Noise Control Act and any other appropriate legislation and regulations.

• Council will accept no liability for injury or damage as a result of any display. • Prior notification (minimum 48 hours ) of the display must be given to

- Police Headquarters - C.F.S. Headquarters

As a 9th or 10th schedule permit for the fireworks display must be obtained through an authorised CFS permit officer closer to the event, further conditions for the display may apply. RECOMMENDATION That Council support the request for a fireworks display on Sunday 8th March 2009 at 9.00pm, at the Hindmarsh Island “beach” opposite the Goolwa Wharf, subject to the C.F.S. issuing the appropriate permit.

17.4 Arts & Cultural Tourism Policy - Public Art Policy

File Ref: 9.24.1 Officer (full name): Des Commerford From: Arts & Cultural Tourism Advisory Committee Officers Consulted (full name): Kim Vivian, Steve Ashley Corporate Plan Objective No: 35.1.1 Budget Allocation: $3,000 Budget Spent to Date: Nil Chart of Account: 5730365 Job Number: 573702 ESD Impact/Benefit:-

* Environmental: N/A * Social: Positive enhancement to the urban structure

of localities. * Economic: Positive focus for visitation to townships.

REPORT In accordance with Action 35.5.1 of the Arts & Cultural Tourism Policy, adopted by Council in 2008, the Advisory Committee seeks approval to progress the following policy: “consider the inclusion of public art in all of Council’s infrastructure and building projects”. The action is to seek an effective approach to community development and social well-being. As has been shown with Cadell Street, Goolwa; Strathalbyn Memorial Gardens; Basham Beach Foreshore and entry statements to various towns; public art, undertaken in association with community groups enhances the amenity of localities and display a sense of pride within the community. Public art is also an economic driver, as related to tourism, to encourage visitation to an area and promotes a particular character or theme of a town particularly in the interpretation of historic events or cultural appreciation of a site. The Advisory Committee seeks to prepare a policy and procedures manual for consideration of Council prior to public consultation. RECOMMENDATION That Council appoint Mrs Jane Hylton, Chair of the Arts & Cultural Tourism Advisory Committee to propose a policy and process related to Public Arts, for consideration of Council.

21.3 Independent Assessors - Complaint Handling Policy For The Development Assessment Panel

File Ref: 9.24.1 Officer: Sally Roberts

REPORT At the 2 February 2009 meeting Council adopted the Complaint Handling Policy which is to be incorporated into the Council Development Assessment Panel Code of Conduct. As part of that policy it is necessary to appoint some independent assessors who can be called upon to handle particular complaints. Council’s legal firms in Wallmans Lawyers and Norman Waterhouse Lawyers have agreed to be listed as these independent assessors and therefore will be available to deal with any complaint matters that may arise. RECOMMENDATION That Council accept the appointment of Wallmans Lawyers and Norman Waterhouse Lawyers as the Independent Assessors as it relates to the Complaint Handling Policy for the Council Development Assessment Panel.

21.4 Cadell Street, Goolwa Streetscape Improvements

File Ref: 9.24.1 Officer (full name): Des Commerford Officers Consulted (full name): Sally Roberts Corporate Plan Objective No: 10.5.1 Budget Allocation: $100,000 Budget Spent to Date: $6,979 Chart of Account: 5060345 Job Number: 506602 Risk Assessment: Nil ESD Impact/Benefit:-

* Environmental: Ensure the character and heritage of the street reflects the sustainability of the town.

* Social: Provide a public space for community, retail and office use.

* Economic: Improved amenity to enhance retail opportunities.

REPORT At a previous workshop of Council, comments were sought, prior to this meeting, related to the proposed streetscape plan for Cadell Street. It would appear that Members are in agreement with the general direction of the plan to allow community consultation to occur. The project will provide a master plan for streetscape improvements and a framework to guide Council on issues and opportunities, following the initial investigation. Proposals within the plan relate to the following. Namely:

1. Maintain a riverine theme to be reflected in street furniture such as seats, bins, bollards, public art and signage.

2. The existing street trees (Hills Fig) be retained but managed to address spread of roots and impact on footpaths.

3. The footpath extension, beyond Crocker Street be of a sand/natural colour with prominent paving at intersections. Dark colour preferred.

4. Gateway concept be retained with structures being designed to compliment the riverboat theme.

5. Need to improve directional signage. 6. Retain the heritage significance of the street so that buildings and signage

reflect a sympathetic approach to building style. 7. Pedestrian safety should be a priority.

Members need to address the issue of the proposed treatment to the corner of Cadell Street and Goolwa Terrace. It would seem that only one option, namely removal of the slip lane with a wider intersection, be promoted (page 14 of the report).

21.5 Heritage Incentive Scheme

* Environmental: Positive - Retention of historic character. * Social: Positive - Communities perception of

Council assisting property owners in the maintenance and preservation of places with local heritage significance.

* Economic: Small contribution from Council to maintain successful grant funding from State Government.

REPORT Background Council have introduced a number of Heritage based programs designed to assist in supporting and protecting the historic character of our region. These programs are aimed at encouraging restoration and conservation of properties with specific heritage significance and seeks to ensure that owners of Local Heritage Places and Contributory items continue to enjoy their properties and make them viable. One of these programs is a Local Heritage Incentive Scheme. In June 2008 an application for grant monies was submitted to the Department for Environment and Heritage (DEH), seeking a grant to establish a Council Local Heritage Incentive Scheme. In January 2009 the DEH notified Council that they were successful in obtaining a grant of $5500 (GST inclusive). Council accepted this offer on 1 February 2009 and submitted a signed acceptance form to the DEH. To obtain the funding, Council was required to match the DEH amount thereby creating a total grant amount of $11,000 (GST inclusive). This has been funded through the Planning Heritage Research budget line. The final criteria regarding funding allocation is yet to be finalised, however a draft brochure has been produced outlining the possible ways in which the funding can be allocated, this will be promoted in Council’s next Newsletter. REFER ATTACHMENT 21.5 (Page 030) RECOMMENDATION That Council endorse the allocation of $5500 (GST inclusive) towards the Local Heritage Incentive Scheme.

25.2 Proposed Pedestrian Crossing Walkthrough / Refuge - North Terrace, Port Elliot

File Ref: 9.24.1 Officer (full name): IM – Peter Wood Officers Consulted (full name): GMES – Simon Grenfell Budget Allocation: Nil (DTEI Funded) Budget Spent to Date: N/A Risk Assessment: Provision of pedestrian crossing facilities

will assist pedestrian safety ESD Impact/Benefit:-

* Environmental: Save for minor additions to streetscape signage

* Social: Level of protection afforded to residents and visitors

* Economic: No cost to Council. Funded by Department for Transport, Energy & Infrastructure

REPORT Background For more than five years, the Port Elliot community has been agitating for some form of protection for pedestrians crossing North Terrace in the vicinity of the major shopping concentration. The road is under the care and control of DTEI and they have been instrumental in working up a series of proposals, which they have discussed with Council officers. In April 2003, Council resolved to support the construction of a pedestrian-controlled crossing east of The Strand. (ACS 285, 22 April 2003). DTEI advised Council that funding was not available in the forthcoming financial year, or in 2004-05. Further surveys of the vehicle and pedestrian movements in North Terrace by DTEI revealed that the warrant was not met for a pedestrian-activated crossing and that, given its low priority State-wide was unlikely to be funded. An amended DTEI proposal was sent to Council in about July 2008, for a pedestrian walkthrough / refuge immediately west of The Strand. This form of installation does not have signals to give pedestrians rights over vehicles, but provides a central island 'refuge', so that pedestrians can cross traffic in one direction and pause in relative safety before proceeding to complete their crossing. A further amendment was made to the layout and received by Council in October 2008. REFER ATTACHMENT 25.2 (Page 032)

…cont’d

Alexandrina Council


25.2 Proposed Pedestrian Crossing Walkthrough / Refuge - North Terrace, Port Elliot (continued) At the 17 November meeting of Council, it was resolved that this later proposal be supported and 'go on public display for a four week period'. (ACS 08221, 17 November 2008). Given the time of the year and peak holiday trading, the proposal was hand-delivered to all businesses and owners in the section of North Terrace between William Street and Montpelier Terrace and 8 weeks given for responses. Community organisations and Elliot Gardens (a major promoter of crossing facilities) were also invited to comment. Consultation Outcomes Two petitions containing 397 and 246 signatures, respectively and11 letters and emails were submitted by the close of the consultation period. Contact officers also responded to many telephone callers seeking clarification or offering severe criticism. It was obvious from the outset that the loss of some 7 parking spaces directly in front of high turnover businesses was meeting stiff opposition. No community support was received for the proposal as it stands, aside from 1 neutral response. Some respondents agreed that pedestrian facilities were desirable, but not at the expense of scarce kerbside parking. One or two suggestions that it be relocated east to near Montpelier Terrace or west to beyond William Street were received, but both locations are remote enough from the main pedestrian concentrations as to be ineffective. A number of the respondents made references to a 'zebra crossing'. It is taken to mean a marked crossing point on which pedestrians have right of way once having stepped on to the crossing. These are not permitted in South Australia and the only types of crossing which afford this level of protection are the 'koala' 25 km / h school crossing and the pedestrian-activated signalised crossing. Discussion In the absence of the two Council officers who were involved in the DTEI discussions, it is not clear why the July 2008 concept, indicating the additional loss of 2 parking spaces, was abandoned. (Please note that there is already in place 2 small protuberances near the corner of The Strand which effectively have removed 2 spaces. These would be removed and replaced with the larger protuberances shown on the proposal put to consultation.) An internal review of the design suggests that modifications could be made to restore 5 or so of the 7 lost spaces, by further reducing the width of the marked bicycle lanes to 1m.

…cont’d

Alexandrina Council


25.2 Proposed Pedestrian Crossing Walkthrough / Refuge - North Terrace, Port Elliot (continued) This measure would allow:

• The absolute minimum clearance for a bicycle, albeit at a 'pinch point' ; • Widening the kerbside protuberances to provide 2.1 m wide kerbside

parking, and; • Permit the 3.3m wide vehicle lanes to remain.

It must be stressed that these modifications have not been put to DTEI or the community. Additionally, three issues arise from the proposal, beyond the immediate concerns of the traders and their customers, namely:

1. Provision of a marked bicycle route on a relatively highly trafficked arterial road is questionable when there are safer local streets parallel to North Terrace.

2. The recent significant increase in floor space of the supermarket, seemingly without a requirement for off-street parking.

3. Lack of a long-term plan by Council to provide off-street parking, by way of a designated site and car parking fund.

Options

1. Advise DTEI, that due to the overwhelming objection to the proposal for the installation of a pedestrian walkthrough / refuge, that they be asked to delete the project from future works programs, or

2. Undertake further discussion with DTEI and community involvement, to produce a design which does not materially reduce the availability of kerbside parking in North Terrace.

RECOMMENDATION 1) That Council accepts the petitions from Ms Madeleine Walker dated 6 and 30 January respectively. 2) That Council acknowledge that the Port Elliot Community is opposed to any form of pedestrian facility in North Terrace that reduces kerbside parking availability. 3) That Council undertake a study of the need for off-street parking facilities in Port Elliot. 4) That the Department for Transport, Energy & Infrastructure (DTEI) be advised of the outcome of the community consultation and be instructed to put further design development work on hold. 5) That the first signatory of each of the petitions be advised of Council's resolution.

28.2 Temporary Road Closure - Adelaide Hills Tarmac Sprint - Sunday 29th June 2008 - Property Owner Post Event Questionnaire

(continued)

Michael Clements, Clerk of Course, Southern District Car Club advised Dennis Zanker, Director, Engineering & Infrastructure Services, the club would produce a comments form for local residents to complete after the event. This would provide valuable feedback from residents regarding any disruption caused by the temporary road closure. A Post Event Questionnaire was created and distributed by the Southern District Car Club to all property owners including the entire length of Cleland Gully Road in October 2008. The responses were returned to Council via a Reply Paid Envelope. Please find 14 returned Questionnaires attached. 8 out of 14 respondents were severely inconvenienced by the event. REFER ATTACHMENT 28.2 (Page 034) Michael Clements, Clerk of Course Southern District Car Club advised the Adelaide Hills Tarmac Sprint Rally in 2008 raised approximately $10,000 in profits of which close to $5,000 was donated directly to the Amy Gillett Foundation. $600 was donated to the local CFS ($100 for the closest CFS station to each stage plus $200 for the Aldinga CFS who were stationed at the service park looking after the re-fuel area) and $250 to the St John Ambulance. The remaining $4,000 was put towards upgrading the surface on the clubs track at Mt Compass (Lanac Park). This track serves competitors from roughly a 60km radius of Mt Compass. Graham Webster, General Manager, Strategic Planning and Economic Development advised there would be limited economic development for Council with this event given that there would be few onlookers. Graham Webster considers the event would be more for the participants’ enjoyment and poses potential inconvenience to landholders as well as the potential for environmental harm/fire etc. RECOMMENDATION That the Report and Questionnaires be received.

In my opinion the proposed scheme received an overwhelming amount of support from members of the public on the night. Once Council advises the Local Government of its support, the next stage will see the commencement of detailed designs and the advertising of tenders for the construction of the scheme. Assuming no lengthy delays (generally due to easement acquisitions) it is anticipated that construction of the CWMS Scheme would commence in the latter part of 2009. RECOMMENDATION Following the Mount Compass Community meeting Council now undertakes community consultation in accordance with Council's public consultation policy.

File Ref: 9.24.1 Officer (full name): David Moyle Officers Consulted (full name): Clrs Beckett and Oliver, Mike Shelley, Robyn

Dunstall and Joe Hill

REPORT As reported to Council previously (Council Meeting 3rd December 2007 Item 16.4.1), the Soldiers Memorial Lookout, above the Flying Fish, Horseshoe Bay, Port Elliot, was heavily vandalised in September 2007 and has been fenced off since then awaiting restoration. It has been a drawn out process having the structure assessed, re-engineered and redesigned to current standards. Insurance assessors through LGA Asset Mutual Fund inspected the damage in July 2008. They were provided with all relevant and updated plans and engineering information including a quote for $54,000, based on the plans. A second quote for $214,000 was obtained through the assessor. The insurers will only pay out on what is considered malicious damage and their first offer was $7,000. Further negotiation through Joe Hill achieved an increase in insurance pay out to $12,583.64. This was received in mid December 2008. Discussions with Ward Councillors and Council officers suggest that this project be considered in the 2009/10 budget. An application is underway to Department of Veterans Affairs for an aid in funding this project. RECOMMENDATION That the restoration of the Horseshoe Bay Memorial Lookout be considered during the 2009/10 budget deliberations.
