Summary of Item: This report is to seek Council approval for the Shire of Carnarvon Ordinary Council Meeting dates for the 2017 calendar year. Description of Proposal: As above. Background: As a requirement under the Local Government Administration Regulations 1996, Council is required to set its Ordinary and Committee meeting dates for the upcoming calendar year and accordingly provide local public notice to this effect. Furthermore, Council “Policy E017 - Monthly Ordinary Council Meetings, Briefing Sessions and Corporate Information Sessions”, also states that Ordinary Meetings of Council are to be held on the fourth Tuesday of each month, with at least two Ordinary Meetings of Council to be held in Coral Bay, and the date and time to be determined by Council. It should also be noted that with Christmas falling close to the scheduled fourth Tuesday in December, it has been normal practice to bring this meeting forward by one week. Accordingly, the following is a proposed schedule of dates and times for the 2016 Ordinary Meetings of Council, incorporating the suggested changes as previously mentioned, for Council’s consideration –

Financial Implications: The proposed meeting schedule that may include an optional overnight stay in Coral Bay which is accommodated in the current year budget.

With Council in agreeance to the proposed scheduled dates for the Ordinary Meetings for the 2017 calendar year, local public notice will need to be given in the local newspaper, Shire of Carnarvon website and Shire public notice boards.

8.1.3 2017 ELECTED MEMBER AND STAFF CHRISTMAS FUNCTION File No: 2C0101 Date of Meeting: 22nd November 2016 Location/Address: - Name of Applicant: Shire of Carnarvon Name of Owner: Shire of Carnarvon Author/s: Dannielle Hill, Senior Executive Officer Declaration of Interest: Nil Voting Requirements: Simple Majority
Summary of Item: This Item seeks Council’s approval to conduct an Elected Member and Staff Christmas Function in recognition of 2016. Description of Proposal: This proposal is to hold the annual Christmas party, including catered food on Saturday 3rd December 2016. Background: Traditionally, the Council holds a Christmas Party each year in recognition of the organization’s efforts, and afford opportunity for the Elected Members and the Executive Staff to express their appreciation to the other employees for their contribution throughout the year. Last year the event was held at the Carnarvon One Mile Jetty Heritage Precinct for Elected Members, Staff and immediate family members only. This proved a great success with the majority of Elected Members and staff attending and enjoying the evening. With this in mind, it is proposed that a similar event again be held this year with a venue to be determined by Council. Consultation: Nil Statutory Environment: Nil Relevant Plans and Policy: Shire of Carnarvon Policy E013 – Christmas Function - refer to Comment Section below. Financial Implications: This proposal is accommodated within the current 2016/2017 financial budget - Refreshment allocation for the pending Christmas Party. On estimate it is expected the function will cost approx. $3,000 that includes food and drinks for approximately 85 people based on previous functions. Risk Assessment: There is no apparent risk in regard to the holding of a Christmas Function for Elected Members and Staff. Community & Strategic Objectives: Nil Comment: As in recent years it is proposed that a combined Elected Member/Staff Christmas function be held at the discretion of Council and in accordance with Policy E013 – Christmas Function, which states –
1.0 Council shall provide one annual Christmas function to cater for Elected Members, all staff and family members.
2.0 The function date and venue shall be determined by a resolution of Council at least one month out from the date of the function.
3.0 The format of the function shall be as determined by Council and where possible, rotated across different venues.
Albeit that Point 2.0 above states that this matter is to be determined at least one month prior to the proposed function being held, due to some staff being on leave and other pressing issues taking up considerable staff time, this matter is now only being brought to Council for consideration. While there are a number of venues that can be considered, including once again, the One Mile Jetty Historical Interpretive Centre, the Carnarvon Yacht Club or the Carnarvon Motel (previously Fascine Lodge), the Festival Grounds Premier Oval would appear from a staff perspective to be a practical venue, as it offers an ideal setting, high standard of facilities and grassed area for children. This aligns with Council Policy Point 3.0 above that suggests a rotation of venues. Catering for the function will be provided at a minimal cost, and as this is a Council venue, there will be no hire charge involved. OFFICER’S RECOMMENDATION That Council endorse an Elected Member/Staff Christmas function (Including immediate families) on Saturday 3rd December 2016 commencing at 5.30pm, at the Festival Grounds Premier Oval.

Description of Proposal: N/A Background: Council delegated to CEO the exercise of its power under Financial Management Regulation 12 to make payments from Municipal Fund and Trust Fund. Consultation: Nil Statutory Environment: Local Government Act 1995 – Section 5.42 Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations 1996 – Regulations 12 and 13 Relevant Plans and Policy: All accounts are paid as per the Shire of Carnarvon’s 2016/17 Budget. Financial Implications: Ongoing management of Council funds by providing Council with sufficient information to monitor and review payments made. Community & Strategic Objectives:
Outcome 5.2 A high standard of governance and accountability.

(5) Each financial year, a local government is to adopt a percentage or value, calculated in accordance with the AAS, to be used in statements of financial activity for reporting material variances.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of AccountingThis statement comprises a special purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance
with Australian Accounting Standards (as they apply to local governments and not‐for‐profit entities),
Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board, the Local Government Act 1995 and accompanying regulations. Material accounting policies which have been adopted in the preparation of this statement are presented below and have beenconsistently applied unless stated otherwise.
Except for cash flow and rate setting information, the report has also been prepared on the accrual basis and is based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non‐current assets, financial assets and liabilities.
Critical Accounting EstimatesThe preparation of a financial report in conformity with Australian Accounting Standards requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that effect the application of policies and 04
The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances; the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
(b) The Local Government Reporting EntityAll Funds through which the Council controls resources to carry on its functions have been included in this statement.
In the process of reporting on the local government as a single unit, all transactions and balancesbetween those funds (for example, loans and transfers between Funds) have been eliminated.
All monies held in the Trust Fund are excluded from the statement, but a separate statement of thosemonies appears at Note 12.
(c) Rounding Off FiguresAll figures shown in this statement are rounded to the nearest dollar.
(d) Rates, Grants, Donations and Other ContributionsRates, grants, donations and other contributions are recognised as revenues when the local government obtains control over the assets comprising the contributions. Control over assets acquired from rates isobtained at the commencement of the rating period or, where earlier, upon receipt of the rates.
(e) Goods and Services TaxRevenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of GST receivable or payable.The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included with receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are presented as operatingcash flows.

(f) Cash and Cash EquivalentsCash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash at bank, deposits available on demand with banks and other short term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value and bank overdrafts.
Bank overdrafts are reported as short term borrowings in current liabilities in the statement of financial position.
(g) Trade and Other ReceivablesTrade and other receivables include amounts due from ratepayers for unpaid rates and service charges and other amounts due from third parties for goods sold and services performed in the ordinary course of business.
Receivables expected to be collected within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are classified as current assets. All other receivables are classified as non‐current assets.
Collectability of trade and other receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts that are known to be uncollectible are written off when identified. An allowance for doubtful debts is raised when there is objective evidence that they will not be collectible.
(h) InventoriesGeneralInventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
Land Held for ResaleLand held for development and sale is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes the cost of acquisition, development, borrowing costs and holding costs until completion of development.Finance costs and holding charges incurred after development is completed are expensed.
Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss at the time of signing an unconditional contract of sale if significant risks and rewards, and effective control over the land, are passed on to the buyer at this point.
Land held for sale is classified as current except where it is held as non‐current based on Council’s intentions to release for sale.
(i) Fixed AssetsAll assets are initially recognised at cost. Cost is determined as the fair value of the assets given asconsideration plus costs incidental to the acquisition. For assets acquired at no cost or for nominalconsideration, cost is determined as fair value at the date of acquisition. The cost of non‐current assetsconstructed by the local government includes the cost of all materials used in the construction, directlabour on the project and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead.
Certain asset classes may be revalued on a regular basis such that the carrying values are not materiallydifferent from fair value. Assets carried at fair value are to be revalued with sufficient regularity to ensurethe carrying amount does not differ materially from that determined using fair value at reporting date.

(j) Depreciation of Non‐Current AssetsAll non‐current assets having a limited useful life are systematically depreciated over their usefullives in a manner which reflects the consumption of the future economic benefits embodied inthose assets.
Depreciation is recognised on a straight‐line basis, using rates which are reviewed each reportingperiod. Major depreciation rates and periods are:
Buildings 25 to 50 yearsConstruction other than Buildings (Public Facilities) 5 to 50 yearsFurniture and Equipment 4 to 10 yearsPlant and Equipment 5 to 15 yearsHeritage Assets 25 to 50 yearsRoads 25 yearsFootpaths 50 yearsSewerage Piping 75 yearsWater Supply Piping and Drainage Systems 75 years
(k) Trade and Other PayablesTrade and other payables represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Council prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Council becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. The amounts are unsecured, are recognised as a current liability and are normally paid within 30 days of recognition.
(l) Employee BenefitsThe provisions for employee benefits relates to amounts expected to be paid for long service leave, annual leave, wages and salaries and are calculated as follows:
(i) Wages, Salaries, Annual Leave and Long Service Leave (Short‐term Benefits)The provision for employees’ benefits to wages, salaries, annual leave and long service leave expected tobe settled within 12 months represents the amount the Shire has a present obligation to pay resulting from employees services provided to balance date. The provision has been calculated at nominal amounts based on remuneration rates the Shire expects to pay and includes related on‐costs.
(ii) Annual Leave and Long Service Leave (Long‐term Benefits)The liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the project unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future paymentsare discounted using market yields at the reporting date on national government bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. Where theShire does not have the unconditional right to defer settlement beyond 12 months, the liability is recognised as a current liability.

(m) Interest‐bearing Loans and BorrowingsAll loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received lessdirectly attributable transaction costs.
After initial recognition, interest‐bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortisedcost using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities that areyield related are included as part of the carrying amount of the loans and borrowings.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Council has an unconditional right to defersettlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.
Borrowing CostsBorrowing costs are recognised as an expense when incurred except where they are directly attributableto the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. Where this is the case, they arecapitalised as part of the cost of the particular asset.
(n) ProvisionsProvisions are recognised when: The council has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result ofpast events; it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation;and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlementis determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one of item included in the same class of obligations may besmall.
(o) Current and Non‐Current ClassificationIn the determination of whether an asset or liability is current or non‐current, consideration is given to thetime when each asset or liability is expected to be settled. The asset or liability is classified as currentif it is expected to be settled within the next 12 months, being the Council's operational cycle. In thecase of liabilities where Council does not have the unconditional right to defer settlement beyond 12 months,such as vested long service leave, the liability is classified as current even if not expected to be settledwithin the next 12 months. Inventories held for trading are classified as current even if not expected to berealised in the next 12 months except for land held for resale where it is held as non current based onCouncil's intentions to release for sale.

Previous Reports: 29 Oct 2013, 28 Jan 2014, 29 July 2014, 23 June 2015
Summary of Item: This report relates to a request for extension of a Sub-Licence, of the temporary retail fuel facility on Lot 64 Banksia Drive (Coral Bay), for a further 2 years effective from 1 January 2017. Currently the Sub-Licence is held by Geraldton Fuel Company Pty Ltd (Geraldton Fuel). This facility support the needs of the Coral Bay community and it’s visitors as an interim arrangement until such time a new permanent Service Station is constructed on the adjacent Lot 62 in Coral Bay. Description of Proposal: Council approval is sought for approval of an extension of the Sub-Licence with Geraldton Fuel for the temporary retail fuel facility on Lot 64 for a further term of 2 years, to run from 1 January 2017 until 31 December 2018. Similarly, Council is further requested to delegate authority to the CEO to approve extension of the necessary temporary Development Approvals previously granted, also to be effective from 1 January 2017 until 31 December 2018. Background: As previously reported to Council, negotiations have been taking place between the State Government and owners of the previous fuel filling facility on Lot 12 Robinson Street, Coral Bay to develop a new fuel station on Lot 62 Banksia Drive, Coral Bay. In August 2013 a notice was served by the owners of the old fuel facility that their operations will cease in February 2014 as the licence would not be renewed by Department of Mines and Petroleum. Additionally, the old site would have to be remediated at considerable cost to the owners constraining their ability to develop a new site. As a consequence Coral Bay would be left without a fuel supply. To remedy this situation Council resolved at its ordinary meeting held 29 October 2013, with delegation to the CEO, to accept a Licence Agreement from Department of Lands for a part of Lot 64 Coral Bay to be used for a temporary fuel facility. The Licence included the right of sub-licence the Licence Area. To find a suitable experienced fuel supplier to Sub-Licence the temporary fuel facility Council called for Expression of Interest (EOI 2/2013) which closed in January 2014. Council resolved at a Special Council meeting held 28 January 2014 to award the Sub-licence to Geraldton Fuel. For reference purposes Figure 1 illustrates the location of the temporary Fuel Facility:
Figure 1 – Existing temporary Fuel Facility from Geraldton Fuel
The Licence Agreement and Sub – Licence are due to expire at 31 December 2016. The Department of Lands have initiated the process of releasing the adjacent Lot 62 for a permanent fuel facility and calling for expressions of interest from permanent fuel providers. This process is still ongoing however and therefore extension of the temporary arrangements are necessary. To continue the provision of fuel in Coral Bay the Shire requested a renewal of the current Licence Agreement with Department of Lands. The department granted a new licence for a further 3 years, effective from 1 January 2017. Currently the Licence has been sent back to the department for further execution by the department (Schedule 8.2.4). Council resolved the following in regards to an extension of the Sub-Licence: Extract of minutes from Ordinary Council Meeting 28 January 2014: SCM 7/01/14 COUNCIL RESOLUTION Cr Ganzer/Cr March That Council:
1. Pursuant to Section 3.58(2)(b) of the Local Government Act, 1995 award a sub licence for the establishment of a temporary retail fuel facility on Lot 64 of Deposited Plan 030121 Coral Bay to Geraldton Fuel Company Pty Ltd in line with their EOI 2/2013 submission, with the sub licence agreement to be reviewed by the Shire’s solicitors.
Temporary Fuel Facility Geraldton Fuel
Lot 64
Lot 62
Clause 2.3.1 (c) of Expressions of Interest (EOI) 2/2013 documentation provides the following information in regards to an extension of the Sub-Licence for the successful submission:
2.3.1 Commitment An EOI submission must provide written commitment to the Principals’ requirements that the temporary fuel facility:
a) must be approved, installed, licenced and operational for retail trade on or before 31st March 2014.
b) will attract an annual licence fee of $3,000 (excl. GST) to be paid to the principal within fourteen (14) days from the date of invoice.
c) licence will terminate on 31st December 2016, unless otherwise extended in writing by the Principal.
Although, Council resolved to award a sub-licence for 3 years and a possible extension, unfortunately when the Sub-Licence was prepared the option to further extend the Sub-Licence hasn’t been included in the document. In terms of land use planning, the primary Statutory tool is District Zoning Scheme (DZS) No. 11. Under DZS No. 11 the property is zoned “Coral Bay Settlement Zone”, with Schedule 5 identifying the property to be within the ‘Natural Environs’ precinct. This precinct does not permit the development of a (permanent) fuel facility and Council was therefore only able to issue temporary development approval pursuant to Clause 3.5.1 (xv) of DZS No. 11. This clause limits temporary approvals as follows:
“xv) Council may approve an application for planning approval for a use not permitted in the Planning Precincts provided that the proposed use:
(a) is of a temporary nature only; subject to the following condition: That the period of the temporary use shall be specified and shall not be greater than three years from the date of approval;
xvii) Pursuant to Clause 3.5.1 (xvi) Council may grant approval to extend the period of a temporary use provided that the period for the temporary use does not exceed five years in total including all extensions.”
Council may therefore agree to the extension of the temporary use of the facility for another two years, so that the total time of a temporary fuel facility does not exceed 5 years. It should be noted that Council granted delegated authority to the CEO at the Special Meeting in January 2014 to approve the initial facility upon receiving a compliant Development Application, which was then effected on the 11th of February 2014. Subsequent to that initial application, later Development Applications for first a fuel station sign and later a storage container were approved by Council on 29 July 2014 and 23 June 2015 respectively. Bothe these approvals were limited to expire at the end of the sub-lease (31 December 2016). Since it is highly probable that all these developments (the fuel facility itself, the sign and the storage container) will remain as is for the extended period, it is recommended that the CEO be delegated the authority to extend the development approvals for all of them when in receipt of compliant development applications. Geraldton Fuel has confirmed their interest in running the temporary fuel facility for another two years. In accordance with Local Government Act 1995, Clause 3.58. (3) Disposing of Property, the disposal of property needs to be advertised for period not less than 2 weeks, to notify the public.
Consultation: The Department of Lands and the current sub-leaseholder Geraldton Fuel was consulted during the preparation of this item. Statutory Environment: Local Government Act 1995, Clause 3.58. (3) and Clause 5.42. (1)(b) District Zoning Scheme No. 11 Relevant Plans and Policy: C016 Lease and Licensing Classification Financial Implications: The current Sub-Licensee pays an annual Sub-Licence Fee of $3,000 (ex GST). The cost associated with the execution of a formal extension of Sub-Licence will be paid by the Sub-Licensee, in accordance with Policy C016 Tier Three – Commercial Leases. Risk Assessment: With the expiry of the Sub-Licence being 31 December 2016 it is imperative that there is a continuation of the supply of fuel within the Coral Bay town site. The likelihood of another party being interested in building and running a temporary fuel facility for only 2 years is assumed to be very low. The current Sub-Licensee spent a substantial amount of money to build the existing infrastructure. Community & Strategic Objectives:
Outcome 1.1 Increased tourism within the region
1.1.1 Promote and support local and regional tourism initiatives.
1.1.2 Facilitate the opportunities and funding options for niche tourism products and experiences.
Outcome 1.2 Increased availability of serviced residential, commercial and industrial land.
1.2.1 Advocate for the release of State Government-owned land for residential, commercial and industrial development.
Outcome 1.3 Improved Shire infrastructure
1.3.1 Advocate for the timely provision of enhanced infrastructure and utilities to facilitate economic growth. e.g., water, power, sewerage, boat launching facilities, air transport infrastructure and telecommunications.
Comment: It is quite evident that the need for a guaranteed fuel supply in Coral Bay is critical and must be proactively facilitated. A permanent solution is not yet available and therefore it is essential that the current temporary sub-licence and development approvals be extended to ensure this vital service.
OFFICER’S RECOMMENDATION 1 That Council pursuant to Section 5.42 of the Local Government Act, 1995, note the renewal of the Licence Agreement from the Department of Lands for part of Lot 64 Coral Bay to be used for a temporary fuel facility.
Recommendation 1: Simple Majority Required OFFICER’S RECOMMENDATION 2 That Council Pursuant to Section 3.58(2)(b) of the Local Government Act, 1995 award an extension of the sub licence for a further two (2) years up to 31 December 2018 for the establishment of a temporary retail fuel facility on Lot 64 of Deposited Plan 30121 Coral Bay to Geraldton Fuel Company Pty Ltd in line with the EOI 2/2013 Documentation and the EOI 2/2013 submission.
Recommendation 2: Absolute Majority Required
OFFICER’S RECOMMENDATION 3 That Council delegate authority to the CEO under Section 5.42 of the Local Government Act, 1995 to:
1) execute and seal the extension of the Sub-Licence agreement, and further to 2) grant development approval subject to a compliant application being received for the temporary
fuel facility and auxiliary development, including signage and a storage container on Lot 64 on P30121 Banksia Drive, Coral Bay pursuant to Section 3.5.1 of the Shire of Carnarvon District Zoning Scheme No.11.
Recommendation 3: Absolute Majority Required

Name of Applicant: Shire of Carnarvon Name of Owner: Shire of Carnarvon Author/s: Carolien Claassens, Governance Officer Declaration of Interest: None Voting Requirements: Simple Majority Previous Reports: 25 October 2016 FC 9/10/16
Summary of Item: This report seeks to inform Council of the award of the Request for Quote (RFQ) 05/2016 – “State CCTV Infrastructure” under delegated authority as per delegation 3030 “Tendering for Goods and Services”. Description of Proposal: That Council note the award to Avantgarde Technologies (Avantgarde) of a Consultancy Agreement for the State CCTV Infrastructure granted under delegated authority to the CEO following Request for Quote RFQ 05/2016. Background: In December 2015 the Shire of Carnarvon completed an Expression of Interest with WA Police for the State CCTV Infrastructure Fund in a bid to upgrade and expend the CCTV Infrastructure within the Shire, and enable Carnarvon Police access to the information. Before receiving an approval of the grand funding provided by WA Police, the Shire had to issue an RFQ through WALGA prequalified panel of Suppliers – Category ‘CCTV Systems to meet State CCTV Strategy’. The scope of works for the RFQ has been written in collaboration with WA Police. This scope of works includes:
- A transmitter/receiver on the Shire Uplink Tower to link the Police station into the camera network. A link is also required between the Shire office, town beach and town oval.
- Back and server requirements at the Shire main office and the Police Station. - Seven (7) camera locations identified, listed as follows:
Site 1 Town Oval
Site 2 Centre Roundabout Robinson Street
Site 3 Civic Centre Carpark
Site 4 Town Beach Playground
Site 5 Fascine Jetty Structure 1 – Opposite 103 Oliva Terrace Carnarvon
Site 6 Fascine Jetty Structure 2 – Opposite 105 Olivia Terrace Carnarvon
Site 7 Fascine Jetty Structure 3 – Brown Street Carpark The WA Police will be running the State CCTV Strategy Fund for two financial years, starting in 2016/2017. The approval for the first year of funding has been received, which includes:
- A transmitter / receiver on the Shire Uplink Tower - Back and server requirements - Camera site 1, 2 and 3.
To accommodate Site 4, 5, 6 and 7 of the Project Scope, the Shire needs to apply for the second round of funding for 2017/2018. Accordingly, the scope has been written in such a way that the system can be installed in stages, dependent upon funding being available. The RFQ process was conducted over a three week period with two submissions being received from Avantgarde and Downer EDI Engineering Electrical Pty Ltd. (Downer). The submissions have been evaluated by the Evaluation Panel, consisting of the Executive Manager of Corporate Services, Manager Assets and the IT Coordinator. Both submissions achieved an acceptable qualitative score. A copy of the confidential evaluation report can be provided to Councilors on request. The Evaluation Panel recommended Avantgarde should be awarded the contract. Avantgarde provides a good understanding of the project and key personnel. In the quotation a high standard of equipment has been included, without being more expensive than the submission from Downer. WA Police have accepted the recommendation from the Evaluation Panel which has resulted in approving the Grant between WA Police and the Shire of Carnarvon. Consultation: Consultation undertaken with –
1. WA Police 2. Avantgarde 3. Downer
Internal consultation has also taken place between the Shire IT department and Infrastructure Directorate relating to the preparation of the RFQ documentation, and the evaluation of the submissions. Statutory Environment: The quotation process is conducted through WALGA’s purchasing service as permitted under the Local Government Act 1995, Part 3, Division 3 s 3.57 and the Local Government (Functions and General) Regulations 1996, Part 4 Division 2. The CEO has exercised authority pursuant to Council Delegation 3030. Relevant Plans and Policy: Policy C013 – Tender Selection Criteria Policy, to identify the Qualitative Selection Criteria for the RFQ Policy C002 – Purchasing Policy, using a Tender Exempt Panel of Pre-Qualified State of WALGA preferred suppliers. Financial Implications: The State CCTV Infrastructure is provided for in the existing Capital Expenditure budget under COA 0734 Job 0734, with these funds being grant moneys secured though WA Police Force. Risk Assessment: There is no risk associated with the Officer Recommendation. Community & Strategic Objectives:
Outcome 3.8 Improved community health, safety and well being.
Comment: The intention of this report is to close out the request for quote process by reporting to Council the actions of the CEO in awarding RFQ 05/2016 under delegated authority for the State CCTV Infrastructure.

8.2.6 RFT 03/2016 – PROVISION OF ELECTRICAL SERVICES File No: 2F1516.01 Date of Meeting: 22 November 2016 Location/Address: N/A Name of Applicant: N/A Name of Owner: Shire of Carnarvon Author/s: Carolien Claassens – Governance Officer Declaration of Interest: Nil Voting Requirements: Simple Majority Previous Report: N/A
Summary of Item: This report seeks Council not accept any submission for Request for Tender (RFT) 03/2016 – “Provision of Electrical Services” and re-start the process a fresh to call for the “Tendering for Goods and Services” for this service. Description of Proposal: That Council conclude and then re-start the tender process for Provision of Electrical Services as Request for Tender RFT 05/2016. Background: The previous contract for the Provision of Electrical Services with Redcliff Electrical expired on 30 September 2015. Currently the Shire has been requesting quotation from several local electricians, hence the absence of a contract. Due to legislative compliance requirements, when the procurement of goods/ services is greater than $150,000 (over an unspecified amount of time), the Shire has needed to undertake a Public Tender. In this regard the cost of electrical works is likely to exceed the value of $150,000 over the coming financial years, given an average expenditure of $91,000 in the last few years. In light of this, a RFT process was recently conducted over a four week period with one submission received from a local Electrician. The tender process was advertised on the Tenderlink website, and in the Local and State newspaper. Receiving only one submission for the Tender raised questions by the Evaluation Panel as to why the Shire didn’t receive other submissions from local suppliers. To be able to make a fair decision based on ‘value for money’, the panel contacted four local Electricians with questions as to whether they received an invitation from Tenderlink to submit for Tender 03/2016. Three out of four responded, with two Electricians confirming they didn’t receive any information. Due to a technical issue by Tenderlink the Evaluation Panel believes that not providing similar information to all local suppliers has meant that not all who held an interest in bidding for the work had the opportunity to provide a tender application. In the Evaluation Report the Panel advised the CEO not to award a contract at this stage, but suggested that a new Tender process should be carried out providing the same Scope of Works and Selection Criteria as RFT 03/2016. A copy of the confidential evaluation report can be provided to Councillors on request. Further it is recommended the single submission received for RFT 03/2016 be accepted in the new Tender, should that provider not wish to resubmit.
Consultation: Nil Statutory Environment: The tender process is conducted in accordance with the Local Government Act 1995, Part 3, Division 3 s 3.57 and the Local Government (Functions and General) Regulations 1996, Part 4 Division 2. Relevant Plans and Policy: The following policies and delegation applies to the formal tender processes:
Policy C002 – Purchasing Policy
Policy C013 – Tender Selection Criteria Policy
Delegation 3030 – Tendering for Goods and Services Financial Implications: Provision of electrical works across various line items is provided for in the existing budget, which are fundamental to the core business of the Shire. Risk Assessment: There is no risk associated with the Officer Recommendation. Community & Strategic Objectives:
Outcome 1.1 A thriving and diverse business environment
1.5.1 Advocate for increased resources for local business development agencies such as the Small Business Information Centre.
1.5.2 Support employment and training programs for local business.
1.5.3 Develop strong alliances with local businesses to effectively enhance and support economic growth.
Comment: As mentioned the intention of this report is to conclude the current Request for Tender 03/2016 process for Provision of Electrical Services without accepting any submission, and restart the process. It is viewed as appropriate given a ‘glitch’ in the e-tender system that appears to have denied the opportunity to all local suppliers to competitively bid for the Shire’s electrical work. OFFICER’S RECOMMENDATION That Council:
1. Pursuant to Section 5.42 of the Local Government Act, 1995 not accept any tender submission for RFT 03/2016 - Provision of Electrical Services, resulting this tender submission being concluded;
2. Recall for Tenders titled ‘RFT 05/2016 - Provision of Electrical Services’, in line with Council Policy C013 – Tender Selection Criteria Policy and subject to the following:
a) The period of advertising to be a minimum of twenty one (21) days; b) The tender process being conducted through a traditional approach involving
notification circulating in a state and local newspaper, and the Shire website with submissions being lodged in person, electronically, through Australia Post or by courier.
8.3.1 DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION: HOLIDAY HOUSE (LARGE) AT 26 FREEMAN STREET, KINGSFORD
File No: A1245; P77/16 Date of Meeting: 22 November 2016 Location/Address: Lot 62 on D72825 HN 26 Freeman St Kingsford Name of Applicant: Barry & Diane Evans Name of Owner: Barry & Diane Evans Author: Robert Pringle Planning Officer Declaration of Interest: Nil Voting Requirements: Simple Majority Previous Report: Nil
Summary of Item: A development application has been received to consider the use of ‘holiday house (large)’ for property at 26 Freeman Street, Kingsford. Following advertisement of the proposal, no objections have been raised. It is recommended that conditional approval be granted for a period of 1 year, with further approval to be granted in annual cycles subject to meeting the conditions of approval. Description of Proposal: The applicants own two adjacent properties and are seeking an alternative to long term rental of the second property. As the property is in the Special Residential Zone, and has shelter and an informal paddock for horses, the use would be ideal for a certain type of travelling public, including those that might participate in racing and jumping events held by Carnarvon Race Club or Carnarvon Horse & Pony Club. A floor plan is shown in Figure 1, showing that the 4 Bedroom property additionally includes a lounge, cinema, joint kitchen/dining, and a large outdoor alfresco dining area under cover. The master bedroom is served by an en-suite. The proposal has been provided to the Environmental Health Officer to consider in relation to air space provisions under the Health (Amendment) Local Laws 2002. The applicant has confirmed that the following arrangement will be implemented: Bedroom 1: 2 adults and 1 child Bedroom 2: 2 adults or 4 children Bedroom 3: 1 adult and 1 child, or 3 children Bedroom 4: 1 adult or 2 children The maximum occupancy should be limited to one of the following configurations:
Adults: 6 adults and 2 children,
1 family: 2 adults and 9 children, or
2 families: 4 adults and 5 children *Note: for the purposes of this assessment, a child is 10 years of age and younger.
Figure 1 – Floor Plan

The total property area is 6574m2 in area with nearly 1500m2 available for parking and manoeuvring of vehicles, as there is not a substantial lawn or otherwise vegetated area outside of the fenced interior yard surrounding the dwelling. Background: The property has been used for a special (semi-rural) residential dwelling with stables and horse paddock since its redevelopment in the 1980s. Previously, it would have been also a single dwelling from about 1964, according to the Shire’s building records. The property is adjacent to the Bridle Path which is still in use between Freeman Street and Gibson Street – though the path has been closed South and East of the same streets, which formerly connected to Boor Street. The boundary between the bridle path and Lot 62 is not currently fenced. During the review of the application by the Officer, it was discovered that the Shire had no records of works which were undertaken to the house by the former owner (the applicants’ son) – the works were shown on the aerial images of the site in comparison between the 2012 and 2015 photos (see Figure 2). No Development (planning) approval would have been required for these works, however a building permit application for unauthorised works is required and the applicants have indicated that the documentation will be lodged and assessed as soon as possible. The works included extension of a front verandah, repair to the garage, and construction of the alfresco area at the rear of the house. Consultation: The Shire of Carnarvon Town Planning Scheme No. 10 (‘TPS 10’) provides an ‘SA’ usage for a ‘Holiday Home (large)’ within a ‘Special Residential’ zone. This means that Council may, at its discretion, permit the use after notice of application has been given after expiration of 14 days from the advertising of the application. All property owners with adjacent boundaries, including on the opposite side of Freeman Street were notified of the application. Additionally, the notice was published on the Shire’s website and administration office notice board. Two submissions were received in support of the application with no further comment provided. Statutory Environment: Planning & Development Act 2005 and (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015 Part 5, Local Planning Schemes: Shire of Carnarvon Town Planning Scheme No. 10 is in force under this Act and has the objective of making suitable provision for the improvement, development, and use of the land as described in the local planning scheme area. A Development Approval is required in accordance with Section 60 of the Regulations.

Shire of Carnarvon Town Planning Scheme No. 10 (TPS 10) The subject land is within the area of TPS 10 and zoned ‘Special Residential’ with an applied density of ‘R2.5’. ‘Holiday Home (large)’ is designated a ‘SA’ use within the Special Residential zone under TPS No. 10 Relevant Plans and Policy: Planning Bulletin 99 The Western Australian Planning Commission’s Planning Bulletin 99 provides guidance to local government in how to address proposals within the growing holiday home sector. Amongst other things, it recommends that where an application is supported that initial approval should be granted for a limited period of one year, and potentially renewed on a three year to five year period subject to measures that ensure minimal negative impact on the amenity of neighbouring properties. This is designed to provide a degree of certainty to operators, while also enabling the local government flexibility to terminate approvals of non-compliant operators. Planning Bulletin 99 states that holiday homes are more appropriate in areas of high tourism amenity and close proximity to key tourism attractions such as the beaches, town centres or rural areas, but observes that they may not be appropriate in suburban locations. Financial Implications: None known. Risk Assessment: No specific risks are identified for Council as Shire staff have followed the planning procedures of assessment as provided for the Town Planning Scheme No. 10. Community & Strategic Objectives: The proposed amendment is considered to be in accord with the following goals & outcomes in the Carnarvon Strategic Community Plan 2011:
Outcome 1.1 Increased tourism within the region
1.1.1 Promote and support local and regional tourism initiatives. 1.1.2 Facilitate the opportunities and funding options for niche tourism products and experiences.
Comment: Under the Shire of Carnarvon Town Planning Scheme No. 10, ‘Holiday Home (standard)’ is firstly defined as:
‘a single house (excluding ancillary accommodation), which may also be used for short stay accommodation for no more than six people (but does not include a ‘bed and breakfast’, ‘guesthouse’, ‘chalet’ and ‘short-stay accommodation unit’)’.
Following that, a ‘Holiday Home (large)’ is then defined as:
‘premises conforming to the definition of ‘Holiday Home (standard)’ with the exception that the premises provide short-stay accommodation for more than six people but not more than 12 at any one time.’
This second definition aligns with the accommodation type proposed at Lot 62 (HN 26) Freeman Street, Kingsford. To further clarify the definition and to prevent issues from arising relating to environmental health constraints, the applicant should be advised of the need to hire the property only to single entities rather than individuals to fill the spaces (i.e., individual rooms for rent is prohibited, unless a lodging house licence is obtained alongside a subsequent development approval).
94
Whilst no specific development standards are listed in TPS 10 in relation to a ‘holiday home (large)’ the Residential Design Codes stipulate 2 car parking spaces to be provided for a single house, which can readily be accommodated on the site. As previously stated, there is an area of approximately 1500m2 available for parking and manoeuvring, and as such, the Officers are not worried about parking issues. TPS 10 Amendment 56 (Government Gazette 29/03/2011) introduced ‘holiday homes (large)’ as a use class, and added special provisions in relation to Short-Stay Accommodation through what is now Clause 6.16.1:
“It is the Local Government’s intent to allow a wide range and choice of short-stay accommodation typologies within the scheme area to cater for the diverse accommodation needs of the tourist/visitor.”
The Shire has established policy through this Clause which would encourage a diverse range of short-stay accommodation formats being suitable across the area covered by TPS 10, in accordance with the Scheme provisions. In this regard, the proposal has demonstrated compliance with TPS 10 Provisions and the application is considered an appropriate location for holiday home style accommodation. With regards to conditions and advice deemed appropriate for a ‘holiday home (large)’, the Shire Officers have previously consulted the WAPC Planning Bulletin 99 and resources provided by the City of Busselton in developing a set of conditions that are reasonable considering the Shire of Carnarvon does not have a local law with respect to holiday accommodation. Though the proposed ‘holiday house (large)’ is not in close proximity to townsite amenities, it would provide a specialist accommodation type for those that may be interested in a more rural holiday experience, including those that love horse riding, racing, or other rural pursuits. As a result, the proposal is suitable to the neighbourhood character. OFFICER’S RECOMMENDATION That Council
1. Pursuant to Clause 68 of the Shire of Carnarvon Town Planning Scheme No. 10 Deemed Provisions, development approval for application P77/16 A1245 involving change use of land at Lot 62 on D72825 HN 26 Freeman St Kingsford for a holiday house (large), subject to the following conditions:

b) Notwithstanding the advice note (a) the occupancy is ideally limited to the following maximum occupancy scenarios:
Bedroom 1: 2 adults and 1 child Bedroom 2: 2 adults or 4 children Bedroom 3: 1 adult and 1 child, or 3 children Bedroom 4: 1 adult or 2 children
The maximum occupancy should be limited to one of the following configurations:
i. Adults: 6 adults and 2 children; or
ii. 1 family: 2 adults and 9 children; or iii. 2 families: 4 adults and 5 children
c) With respect to Condition c. any extension of the Approval the applicant is advised to
submit a written request to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) at least two months before the expiration date, after which a review will be carried out about the operation of the Holiday Home (Large) addressing matters including any:

d) In considering a request to extend the approval the CEO may consult with the community
as he/she sees fit.

8.3.2 APPLICATION FOR DEVELOPMENT APPROVAL: SHORT-STAY ACCOMMODATION File No: A1004; P74/16 Date of Meeting: 22 November 2016 Location/Address: Lot 10 on D29816 HN 5 Johnston St Carnarvon Name of Applicant: Richard & Kate Allen Name of Owner: Richard & Kate Allen Author: Robert Pringle Planning Officer Declaration of Interest: Nil Voting Requirements: Simple Majority Previous Report: NIL
Summary of Item: The proposal is to establish a short-stay accommodation use utilising the existing dwelling, flat and studio on the property of 5 Johnston Street. After pre-lodgement consultation, the initial proposal to provide for hire of each unit separately was limited due to the Shire’s Health Local Laws in relation to air space provided per occupant, and the availability of laundry and kitchen facilities. The application has been publicly advertised in accordance with the Scheme provisions. The application is recommended to be approved, subject to a standard set of conditions relating to the use. Description of Proposal: The proposal is to see the current facility hired out in a ‘holiday house’ format of accommodation, but given the property zoning (Commercial) and nature of the existing facilities, is instead classified as ‘short stay accommodation.’ As shown in Figure 1 and Schedule 8.3.2 (b), the property currently contains a dwelling, studio apartment, flat with attached garage, and swimming pool. After pre-lodgement consultation with the Environmental Health section, the owners have decided to apply for the short stay accommodation use, with a management arrangement as follows:
1) Hire of the facility can be segmented depending on the needs of the hirer: a. Dwelling, flat, and studio package; b. Dwelling only; c. Flat only; d. Dwelling and studio; or e. Flat and studio.
2) Maximum occupancy set at the following adult/child configuration, as determined under the Health (Amendment) Local Law 2002 (Total persons: 9 adults, OR 8 adults and 4 children OR 6 adults and 6 children), divided as follows: a. Dwelling upper floor: 2 adults b. House lower floor
• ‘activity room’ 2 adults and 1 child or 3 children (3 single beds or 1 double and 1 single bed)
• ‘bedroom’ 1 adult or 2 children (2 single beds or 1 double bed for 2 children, but if double bed, still only 1 adult occupant)
Figure 1 – Site Plan
99
c. Studio: 2 adults d. Flat:
• Main room 2 adults • 2nd room 1 child (1 single bed)
*Note: for the purposes of this assessment, a child is 10 years of age and younger. The applicant has discussed preliminary arrangements for the operation to be listed online, with booking preference and details available to be managed by the owner. This should assist in maintaining the occupancy conditions. As the owners live locally, they would oversee most of the maintenance, and could additionally provide cleaning services or arrange for others to do so during leave or busy times. Background: The property has been developed in stages since the 1960s. The two-storey dwelling of modular construction was established first on the site, with subsequent additions permitted through appropriate building permit processes in 1987 (Garage), 1990 (Additional Accommodation), and 1995 (Granny Flat). Informal accounts suggest that at some point the various buildings were hired out individually or as rooms for rent, however there is no documentation to this effect listed against the property records. A pool was installed in 1989 and has been subject to ongoing compliance inspections for many years. There are strict requirements to be met for pool safety, including barriers, automatic door closing mechanisms, windows designed or modified to prevent access to poolside areas. On the last round of inspections, the current system was deemed to meet the standards, however the owner has expressed an interest in adding an additional pool fence between the studio and flat to increase the pool safety. Such internal fencing would require a building permit for the footings/tie-down, but otherwise would be exempt from requiring development approval. The current owners purchased the property circa 2012 and in transferring ownership took note of the need to reconstruct the second floor balcony to the rear of the dwelling. This was subject to and received the appropriate planning and building approvals. The Shire is currently participating in a project to reconstruct a retaining wall on the eastern boundary. The land adjacent is a public reserve with easement providing parking access to the rear of Commonwealth Bank and Correia Arcade. Consultation: Town Planning Scheme No 10, Deemed Provisions Clause 64 The use ‘Short-Stay Accommodation’ is a ‘SA’ use – subject to Council’s discretion after advertisement of the application in accordance with the scheme provisions. The application was advertised for a period of 14 days from 24 October to 8 November, with a sign erected on site, letters sent to adjacent owners on Johnston Street and notice published at the Shire administration office and on the Shire’s website. Two submissions were received. Neither submission expressed outright objection to the proposal, however both provided commentary and query in relation to the built form of the property. The queries are addressed via the Officer comment. Comment and advice was additionally sought both in relation to the application and submissions on the application from the contract Building Surveyor and Environmental Health Officer. An inspection of the premises was carried out on 13 September with the planning and environmental health officers in attendance, with internal access provided by the applicant. The comments generated from this inspection have informed the proposed management of the facility, including hiring arrangements and maximum occupancy. Based on the proposal, a lodging house licence under the Shire’s local laws will also be required.
100
Statutory Environment: Town Planning Scheme No 10 The use ‘Short-Stay Accommodation’ is a ‘SA’ use – subject to Council’s discretion after advertisement of the application in accordance with the scheme provisions. No specific car parking provisions are provided in Table 2 – Development Control, nor in in the Special Provisions - Clause 6.16 (Short-Stay Accommodation). It would be appropriate for a total of 4 car parking spaces to be provided (1 for each of the studio and flat, and 2 for the dwelling). The following specific portions of the special provisions are considered further in the Officer’s Comment:
“6.16.1 It is the Local Government’s intent to allow a wide range and choice of short-stay accommodation typologies within the scheme area to cater for the diverse accommodation needs of the tourist/visitor.”
“6.16.3 Development of ‘Short-stay Accommodation’ within the scheme’s ‘Commercial’ zone is to accord with the ‘Mixed-use’ development requirements prescribed in Residential Design Codes of Western Australia (unless otherwise varied by the Local Government).”
Relevant Plans and Policy: There are no specific plans or policies relevant to this application. Financial Implications: In relation to conditions relating to crossover reinstatement, the owner may be entitled to a rebate for at least one of the crossovers, utilising the standard procedure for application for a crossover. In relation to Officer’s Recommendation 2, the Shire should allocate funding and resources towards reinstatement of the crossover on Lot 123 in the Budget for Financial Year 2017-18. Risk Assessment: No specific risks are identified for Council as Shire staff have followed the planning procedures of assessment as provided for in Town Planning Scheme No. 10. Community & Strategic Objectives: The matter before Council generally accords with the following Shire desired outcome as expressed in the Carnarvon Strategic Community Plan 2011:
Outcome 1.1 Increased tourism within the region
1.1.1 Promote and support local and regional tourism initiatives.
1.1.2 Facilitate the opportunities and funding options for niche tourism products and experiences.
Comment: The application for development approval has largely been informed and modified from the pre-submission consultation carried out with the Planning and Environmental Health sections and the applicants. As a result, the proposal as outlined earlier has been shaped by this comment, and the applicants have confirmed they will implement the management of the accommodation in this manner. The proposal was advertised in accordance with the Scheme provisions, and two submissions were received. They are outlined in Schedule 8.3.2 (a), with a detailed response from building, health and planning officers. One submitter requested that the submission remain confidential, so a summary of the comments is provided only (Councillors may request to view the submission). Though there are legitimate concerns raised in the submissions on a level of fairness in the development process, most of the concerns relate to differences between new and historic building standards – the current Building Code is not retrospective unless a change of classification is required. A change of building classification is not required in this case.
101
An inspection of the premises by relevant officers included checking for smoke detection and fire suppression devices, which were adequate for the proposed occupation. Car Parking Spaces The site is constrained by the existing development. There are two driveways with double swing gates on either side of the property. The width of the driveways allows for ‘stacked’ parking only. The western driveway is approximately 13 m from the property boundary to the Studio. With internally swinging gates, this would limit linear parking space to approximately 11.2 m, which could accommodate two vehicles or a single long vehicle. The eastern driveway is 30 m long, inclusive of a carport attached to the flat/Garage. This area could reasonably accommodate four ‘stacked’ parked cars, or a combination of cars and trailers/long vehicles, recognising that boating/fishing is a popular reason for visitors to come to Carnarvon. Driveway Seal Both driveways are constructed of hard packed limestone, though a portion of the carport in the eastern driveway is concrete paved. The crossovers are highly deteriorated and material from the driveway is being deposited on the footpath and road. The approval should be subject to reconstruction of the crossovers to the Shire standard, an extension of a portion of sealed surface extending a minimum 2 metres into the property (based on low speed for the driveway type and length, a modification of the Main Roads standard). It is noted in relation to the condition that will be placed on the approval in relation to sealing the crossover that the Shire is the responsible authority land adjacent, which provides driveway access to businesses with street frontage to Robinson Street. The crossover to this property is similarly deteriorated and the driveway material is also compacted limestone. This should be similarly reinstated and a similar 2m or more hard seal should be installed past the property boundary. The works should be scheduled for early Financial Year 2017-18 having been appropriately included in budget preparation. OFFICER’S RECOMMENDATION That Council,
1. Pursuant to Clause 68 of the Shire of Carnarvon Town Planning Scheme No. 10 Deemed Provisions grant development approval for application P74/16 A1004 for short-stay accommodation at Lot 10 on D29816 HN 5 Johnston St Carnarvon for a subject to the following conditions: a) The approved use is to generally conform to the attached plans dated 22 November 2016
attached in Schedule 8.3.2 (b). An endorsed copy of this plan shall form part of the approval granted and shall not be modified or altered without the prior written approval of the Local Government.
b) Car parking spaces shall be provided on site on the basis of one space for each of the flat and studio, and two spaces for the dwelling. The existing crossovers are to be reinstated by 22 November 2017 and maintained thereafter to the specifications of the Local Government. In order to minimise dust and debris from impacting on the footpath, verge, and road edge, a minimum two metre section of both driveways shall be either bitumen sealed, concrete or brick paved by 22 November 2017.
c) The facility may not be occupied by any guest for more than 3 months within any 12 month
period. In this regard, the manager / operator are to maintain a register of guests which is to be made available for perusal by the Local Government on demand.
d) The maximum occupancy permitted on the premises shall be 12 persons (where two children
10 and under are counted as 1 adult/person), unless otherwise limited by the Shire of Carnarvon Health (Amendment) Local Law 2002.
102
e) The use is not to interfere with the amenity of the locality or cause nuisance by reason of the
emission of noise or otherwise.
2. Provide the following advice notes in addition to the notes provided in Form 4 of Clause 86 of the Deemed Provisions on the approval granted in item 1:
a) The erection of an advertisement sign shall require a separate application for development
approval.
b) This approval does not confer approval under other relevant legislation, including but not limited to, the Health Act 1911 and the Shire of Carnarvon Health (Amendment) Local Law 2002. It is the responsibility for the Applicant to determine any necessary approvals required and obtain such approvals prior to the commencement of the use.
c) A proposed additional pool fence is not subject to a development (planning) approval, however would require a building permit, the application for which must demonstrate compliance with the Building Code of Australia for swimming pool barriers.
d) The following occupancy restrictions apply as determined by application of the Health (Amendment) Local Law 2002. The site and floor plans should be altered and to show the bed layout changes to the ‘Flat’ and ‘House Lower floor’:
1) Hire of the facility may only be in the following combination::
i. Dwelling, flat, and studio package; ii. Dwelling only;
iii. Flat only; iv. Dwelling and studio; or v. Flat and studio.
2) Notwithstanding item 1, up to two separate hires may be accommodated utilising a mixed combination of combinations ii-v.
3) Maximum occupancy set at the following adult/child configuration, as determined under the Health (Amendment) Local Law 2002 (Total persons: 9 adults, OR 8 adults and 4 children OR 6 adults and 6 children), divided as follows:
a. Dwelling upper floor: 2 adults b. House lower floor • ‘activity room’ 2 adults and 1 child or 3 children (3 single beds or 1 double and
1 single bed) • ‘bedroom’ 1 adult or 2 children (2 single beds or 1 double bed for 2
children, but if double bed, still only 1 adult occupant) c. Studio: 2 adults d. Flat: • Main room 2 adults • 2nd room 1 child (1 single bed)
e) A child under the Health (Amendment) Local Laws 2002 is defined as being 10 years of age and
younger.
f) Individual letting of rooms or beds is prohibited without lodgement of an appropriate lodging house licence application and obtaining other such approvals as required by the Scheme.

8.3.3 DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION: MOTOR VEHICLE WASH AT 1042 NWCH
File No: A1495; P80/16
Date of Meeting: 22 November 2016
Location/Address: Lot 21 on P105565, 1042 North West Coastal Highway
Name of Applicant: Haydn Borger & Jodie Fleay of Menah Pty Ltd
Name of Owner: Menah Pty Ltd Trading as Capricorn Holiday Park
Authors: Helen Karageorgiou & Robert Pringle, Planning Officers
Declaration of Interest: Nil
Voting Requirements: Simple majority
Previous Reports: 27 September 2016
Summary of Item: This report relates to an application for a proposed motor vehicle wash on a portion of Lot 21 (HN 1042) adjacent to North West Coastal Highway. The owners propose to develop a state of the art facility with a mix of self-serve and automatic bays, vacuums and a dog wash. The proposed motor vehicle wash will be fitted with a grey water recycling system. The owners are of the opinion that the proposed motor vehicle wash will have an enormous benefit to the local residents of Carnarvon and become an asset to the community. It is recommended to grant development approval for the proposal, subject to a number of conditions. Description of Proposal: The owners identified the opportunity for the development of a motor vehicle wash due to demand from visitors to their caravan park for a facility where visitors can have their cars, caravans, boats, motorhomes etc. washed. It is advocated that a state of the art motor vehicle wash will not only satisfy visitors, but will also have a huge benefit to the local residents of Carnarvon and the Shire as an asset to the community. With the large road frontage and being located 150 metres of the highway intersection, next to the 24 hour Caltex fuel facility, the owners believe the proposed location of the motor vehicle car wash at the front of the park is an ideal location. The proposed Motor Vehicle Wash will be accessible for travellers from Carnarvon town centre as well as from the north or south of the town. The locality for the proposed motor vehicle wash on Lot 21, 1042 North West Coastal Highway is shown in Figure 1 at left. The applicants provided a preliminary written request (Schedule 8.3.3 (a)) when requesting Council consider the ‘use not specifically
Figure 1. Locality for proposed motor vehicle wash on Lot
21, 1042 North West Coastal Highway
112
mentioned’, outlining certain aspects of their proposal. Included in their request are details of market research undertaken to date, the intended scope of the operation, and mitigation measures for any potential land use conflict between the existing and proposed uses. Aspects of the proposal have been altered through market research and in conversation with prospective builders and current facility managers.
Figure 2.Existing Site Plan and Site Plan of proposed development area of motor vehicle wash
113
As wholly or partially shown in Figure 2 (Schedules 8.3.3 (b) & (c)), the proposed development includes:
Two light-vehicle manual wash down bays;
One large vehicle manual wash down bay, with raised platform to assist with top cleaning
A machine room for plant and equipment;
Two automatic car wash bays for light vehicles;
Four vacuum cleaners;
Small and large dog wash facility;
Vending machine for shampoos, car polishes, air fresheners and similar products normally used in the operation;
Change machine for changing notes to coins.
The owners have indicated the following in terms of proposed form and staging of development:
Development must be carried out in the low season, therefore they would work to construct the facility ahead of May/June 2017.
The development would include widening and concreting the existing driveway to the entry point of the motor vehicle wash facility, and concreting of the whole trafficable area of the facility.
Having considered two options for building materials, at the time of lodgement the owners are leaning towards a metal clad structure rather than concrete (as they had shown in example photographs (Figures 3 and 4) due to the costs associated with concrete materials and transportation to Carnarvon.
The owners have indicated a preference towards employing local labour and trades for the on-site manufacture of the facility.
The second automatic wash bay would have plumbing and other services ready to be connected, but would not be constructed unless required.
Signage for the operation would be primarily be for identification only on the north wall facing North West Coastal Highway, and most of the instructional signage would be on the south wall facing the remainder of the property (ie, height restrictions, entry only, conditions of use, pricing, etc).
Wastewater would be treated on site with a proposed advanced treatment unit (ATU) which may be able to utilise existing drainage systems on the western portion of the block. This will be finalised through the system design and approval process undertaken with the Department of Health and the Shire’s Environmental Health section.
The initial proposed operating hours would be 7 AM to 8 PM daily, with automatic shut-off systems in place to prevent use when the facility should be closed.

Background: The applicant’s property has been lawfully used for a Caravan Park & Camping Ground for several decades, with the use pre-dating the current Town Planning Scheme. The area used for caravan and camping sites has been increased in recent years by the former owners, with the northern (old) section of the park being used year-round and the southern (new) section of the park being operated during peak holiday seasons. The owners identified an opportunity to develop a carwash to augment the commercial viability of their land and to provide a much needed service for Carnarvon. A ‘car wash’ is however not a use specifically mentioned in the Carnarvon Town Planning Scheme (TPS) 10, and a report was put to Council to determine the proposed use’s consistency with the ‘Tourist Accommodation’ zone. Council determined on 27 September 2016, pursuant to Clause 4.2.4 of Town Planning Scheme No. 10 that a ‘motor vehicle wash’ simply defined as: “premises used to wash motor vehicles” is consistent with the objectives of the ‘Tourist Accommodation’ zone and endorsed the listing of ‘motor vehicle wash’ as a use not specifically mentioned in the Scheme, using the definition for ‘car wash’ provided in the Planning and Development (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015 Model Scheme Text. Currently a single car wash operates in Carnarvon in a commercially zoned property adjacent to a road house and service station in Robinson Street. Consultation: Internal Prior to lodgement of the application (and also prior to Council’s decision in relation to the ‘use not listed’) advice was sought from the Environmental Health and Building Sections of the Local Government for the requirements of a Motor Vehicle Wash. A Development Control Unit meeting was held with representation from the Environmental Health, Building and Planning Sections to provide the applicant with relevant information, and to ensure compliance with Caravan Park and Camping Ground licencing conditions. There are requirements under separate statutory controls from each of these Sections, which will form part of the advice notation in the recommended approval. Public Notice In accordance with Clauses 4.2, 4.3, and Clause 64 of the Deemed Provisions of TPS 10, the development application was advertised publicly in the following manner for a minimum period of 14 days from 21 October to 7 November 2016:
A notice of public advertisement was placed in a conspicuous location at the entrance to the property,
Affected land owners within 250m of the northern section of the property were notified by post, and
Notification placed on the Shire website and the Shire Bulletin Board (3 Francis Street), along with an additional information package that detailed the proposal, including operational hours, management, photographs of similar developments, and other supporting documentation.
Several submissions were received from the surrounding property owners and are included in Schedule 8.3.3 (d). 4 submissions were in support of the proposal, and one objection (attached as Schedule 8.3.3 (e)) was lodged by the adjacent landowner. The objection in relation to potential for crop damage from dust have some merit, and the Officers recommend conditions in relation to prevention of spray drift occurring and for a dust management plan to be prepared for the works to be carried out on site. Main Roads Western Australia Main Roads Western Australia was contacted in relation to traffic impact and site access. In correspondence between Main Roads and the Officer & owners, Main Roads requested information relating to current and future traffic movements that would reasonably be generated by the addition of the proposed facility in order to assess if a ‘bump out’ would be required for vehicles to pass queuing traffic turning right into the facility.

The owners provided a detailed analysis (Tables 1 and 2) of their park attendance coupled with information supplied by the Carnarvon Visitor’s Centre in relation to tourist traffic. This data showed Main Roads that at ideal business conditions for the owners, an estimated total of 95 vehicles would enter the site with a right turn each day. This satisfied Main Roads that no ‘bump out’ would be necessary.

Main Roads subsequently provided formal comment offering no objections to the development proposal on the proviso that the Shire impose certain conditions relating to the crossover design, driveway width
116
and site drainage in accordance with their correspondence dated 7 November 2016. These conditions are included in the Officer’s Recommendation. Utilities A dial before you dig enquiry was undertaken by both the planning officer and the land surveyor engaged by the owner. Both enquiries resulted in the same information, showing that the verge is populated with underground and overhead Horizon Power assets, an NBN Fibre Optic line, Water Corporation water infrastructure, Gascoyne Water Co-operative main trunk line, and Telstra copper and fibre communications services. Of most interest to the proposed development is the location of a Telstra Pit to the west of the crossover. In order to comply with the Main Roads requirements, the pit may be affected. A request was submitted to the Network Integrity Division of Telstra together with a crossover plan of the area seeking advice as to whether Telstra has any concerns with the proposal to widen and hardseal the existing crossover in this area, and a procedure for any works to move/replace the poles identifying the Telstra pit, as shown in Figure 5 below. An inspection of the premises was carried out by the regional Telstra contractor on 11 November, and at the time of writing the report, no additional information was available. The contractor did express to the owner that a solution would likely be workable, though there would be costs to the owner if alterations were made to the infrastructure.
Figure 5. Crossover plan indicating the Telstra pit (orange) and photo showing pit and surrounding poles. Statutory Environment: Planning and Development Act 2005 Shire of Carnarvon Town Planning Scheme No. 10 The land is zoned ‘Tourist Accommodation’. There is not currently a land use definition that reasonably contains the use of land as proposed, which is why Council has already made a determination under Subclause 4.2.4, providing for ‘motor vehicle wash’ to be considered “not specifically mentioned in Table No. 1” of the Scheme. Town Planning Scheme No. 10 – Scheme Report The following text provides the objectives of the Zoning: “5.4.4 Hotel, Tourist Accommodation and Private Clubs & Institutions Zones. In general these zones need little explanation, the zone categories being evocative of their intent. The Tourist Accommodation Zone has
117
resulted from an amalgamation of two other normally encountered zone classifications of Motel and Caravan Park but the new title and expanded role of the Tourist Accommodation Zone gives greater flexibility and choice in the provision made for tourist accommodation which is particularly important for a town so dependent upon tourism.” Caravan Park and Camping Ground Act 1995 and Regulations 1997 Many of the properties zoned ‘Tourist Accommodation’ in TPS 10 are Caravan Parks and Camping Grounds and are subject to licences issued by the Local Government. The areas proposed for a ‘motor vehicle wash’ should either be excluded from the licenced area or be available for park guests only to ensure compliance with the Act and Regulations. Relevant Plans and Policy: WAPC Planning Bulletin 49/2014 The Bulletin was consulted to determine if there was guidance in relation to commercial operations on a Caravan Park site. There was no specific mention of separation of land uses in this bulletin, however the objectives of the policy includes: “to encourage the development and redevelopment of caravan parks in a manner that responds appropriately to the environment, economy and context, and maintains a minimum standard.” Shire of Carnarvon Town Planning Scheme No 10 Policy Statement No 18 – Advertising Devices Signage on the site is subject to development approval. It is recommended that all signage be included in the building application and be reviewed by the development services directorate to ensure compliance with the Policy. Financial Implications: No financial implications to the Shire were identified if the Officers Recommendations are upheld. Risk Assessment: There are no risks associated with the officer recommendation. The risks identified by the owner are shown in the Comment paragraph below. Community & Strategic Objectives: The matter before Council generally accords with the following Shire desired outcome as expressed in the Carnarvon Strategic Community Plan 2011:
Outcome 1.2 Increased availability of serviced residential, commercial and industrial land.
1.2.3 Facilitate and / or participate in the development of Shire, State Government and private sector land holdings.
Outcome 1.5 A thriving and diverse business environment
1.5.3 Develop strong alliances with local businesses to effectively enhance and support economic growth.
Comment: This proposal represents an attempt by the caravan park owners to improve their business and provide a greater service to customers. The Gascoyne Region of Western Australia has a growing role as an economic driver of the State with its expanding agricultural sector, tourism operations and resource and mining industry. Providing for opportunities for increased growth are linked to a wide range of other matters including business investment confidence, increased demand for housing, education and healthcare and considered to ensure continued population and tourism growth and therefore encouraged by the Shire.
118
The Carnarvon Local Planning Strategy, 2016 direction relating to business and employment is for the local community to be offered with a diverse range of local business and employment opportunities, more specifically illustrating the following objectives and Strategic Policy Position:
Objectives:
1. On-going sustainability and growth of local businesses and local brands within the Shire.
2. Encourage and support the development of new businesses and investment opportunities that foster local economic development and create employment opportunities.
3. Ensure that land is appropriately zoned to provide opportunities for business investment over the next 10-15 years.
4. Revitalise the Carnarvon Township as the primary centre with a focus on strong retail, commercial, food and beverage and entertainment uses.
Strategic Policy Position:
1. It will be important for the Shire to continue with the establishment of an economic development action plan to identify specific actions that will help to realise potential opportunities. Economic sectors that could assist in diversifying the economy in the future include tourism, seasonal workers’ accommodation, fishing, yachting, transport, infrastructure, industry, healthcare and the expansion of horticultural activities.
2. Opportunity to encourage the development and location of value adding businesses and support industries to enhance the existing local economy.
3. Future growth in the horticultural industry will require new goods and services as well as adequate commercial and industrial land for agri-business activities.
In the Carnarvon/Gascoyne region off-road and four wheel driving is becoming a common activity for locals and the travelling public. Even during normal driving conditions and through regular environmental conditions such as wind and dust, motor vehicles tend to get dirty or salt covered quite quickly. Salt in particular can assist in vehicle corrosion and deterioration. A large proportion of the travelling public have large/long vehicles (boats and caravans specifically) and there is no facility with adequate access to provide this service in the Gascoyne region. As indicated under the Scheme Report for TPS 10, the objective of the ‘Tourist Accommodation’ zone is to provide for a range of accommodation for the travelling public. In consideration of the uses permitted or subject to discretion of the Local Government presented in TPS 10, there are very few commercial uses and no industrial uses which could be permitted under the Scheme. The Planning Section is currently drafting Local Planning Scheme No. 13 in accordance with the Planning and Development (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015 – Schedule 1 Model Scheme Text. Within the model, the ‘Tourism’ zone has the following objectives:
• To promote and provide for tourism opportunities. • To provide for a variety of holiday accommodation styles and associated uses, including retail and
service facilities where those facilities are provided in support of the tourist accommodation and are of an appropriate scale where they will not impact detrimentally on the surrounding or wider area.
• To allow limited residential uses where appropriate. • To encourage the location of tourist facilities so that they may benefit from existing road services,
physical service infrastructure, other tourist attractions, natural features and urban facilities. It is the intent of officers to appropriately zone uses in the Local Planning Scheme in accordance with the model scheme text, and therefore the current zone is likely to be zoned ‘Tourism.’
119
Application for and consideration of Development Approval Certain ‘Tourist Accommodation’ zoned areas within TPS 10 are not appropriate locations for the ‘motor vehicle wash’ use by virtue of the density of residential development in the adjacent areas. The local government retains control of the location of facilities through the development application process, which has included advertisement to affected neighbouring properties and to the public at large. The property owner identified the following potential risks/conflicts and proposed that mitigation measures would be considered to address the any potential conflicts or risks relating to these impacts:
Potential Risk/Conflict Mitigation measures
Noise impact assessment As owners of both the Caravan Park and Motor Vehicle Wash, nuisance, disturbances and conflict will be resolved internally The owners, operating in an adjacent sensitive land use, will operate in a way to minimise disruption to their customers, which would also reduce disruption in the locality.
Traffic impact assessment Traffic data has been obtained and applied to generate a traffic impact assessment Facility users will not need to access the caravan park, and would not interfere with park access
Operational plan (hours and management)
As owners of both the Caravan Park and Motor Vehicle Wash, nuisance, disturbances and conflict can be resolved internally. The applicants have indicated operating hours of 7 AM to 8 PM, with the facility designed to shut down and start up at these times.
Waste water treatment and disposal.
A grey water recycling system will be used and may be used for park gardens & landscaping;
Response to objection An itemised response to the objections lodged by the adjacent landowner (Schedule 8.3.3 (e)) is provided as Schedule 8.3.3 (d). The suggestion that the Shire would be liable for lost income should the tenant vacate the premises is unreasonable. In relation to biosecurity concerns, there are measures which may be undertaken in the dispersal of effluent to reduce the potential for damage on the property. Based on the prevailing winds and the presence of a landscaping buffer, the biosecurity threat should be considered very low. OFFICER’S RECOMMENDATION That council,
1. Pursuant to Clause 68 of the Shire of Carnarvon Town Planning Scheme No. 10 Deemed Provisions grant development approval for application P80/16 A1495 for development of land at Lot 21 on P105565, 1042 North West Coastal Highway for a Motor Vehicle Wash subject to the following conditions:

8.3.4 DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION: CARNARVON RACE CLUB RENOVATIONS AT LOT 566 (HN 111) CORNISH STREET, MASSEY BAY
File No: A96; P76/16 Date of Meeting: 22 November 2016 Location/Address: CL22753 Lot 566 on P205437 HN 111 Cornish Street, Massey Bay Name of Applicant: Daly & Shaw P/L on behalf of Carnarvon Race Club Name of Owner: Shire of Carnarvon Authors: Robert Pringle, Planning Officer Declaration of Interest: Nil Voting Requirements: Officers Recommendation 1 - Absolute Majority Officer’s Recommendation 2 - Simple majority Previous Reports: FC 22/9/14 September 2014
Summary of Item: The Carnarvon Race Club is proposing to upgrade some of the site facilities, namely by demolishing an existing ablution block and removing adjacent jockey’s change facilities, and replacing these facilities in a new administration building with areas dedicated to offices, weigh-in room, jockeys’ change rooms and adjacent ablutions. A request has been submitted for Council to waive the Council building and planning fees associated with the development. The staff recommendations are to waive the Shire’s planning and building fees associated with the development, and to approve the development subject to conditions. Description of Proposal: The applicant seeks to develop a single story administration building with areas dedicated to offices, weigh-in room, jockeys’ change rooms and adjacent ablutions, plus a paved verandah. The building will replace existing ablutions and transportable change rooms in largely the same footprint (Figure 1). The proposal would accord with the floor plan in Figure 2. The plans are included as Schedule 8.3.4 (b).
Figure 1. Site Plans showing existing buildings and proposed building massing.
134
The administration area will be primarily used during non-event periods as multipurpose administration areas related to club management, including club membership meetings. During race days, it will provide secure facility for storage, computing equipment, and other event management functions. It should be noted that the development is located on reserve 31811 (Golf and Race Club Reserve area) which is under the care and control of the Shire of Carnarvon. In light of prior decision (FC 22/9/14) relating to the signing of application form for development, it is not considered necessary for the same resolution to be made. A request to waive the Shire’s development and building fees is attached at Schedule 8.3.4 (a).
Figure 2. Floor Plans
135
Background: The Carnarvon Race Club has operated at its current location for many decades. Each year, the Racecourse has about 10 race events during the May-September season, culminating in the Carnarvon Cup each September. Events draw Shire of Carnarvon residents, tourists and racing enthusiasts from the surrounding regions into Carnarvon. The major events are popular enough to warrant charter flights being arranged from Perth for each event. The race club facilities include a clubhouse, grandstands, ticket booths, and the ablution block/jockey change rooms. There are also stables, staging areas, and the track. Administration of the race club is primarily completed within the club house facilities or at officer’s homes. The current ablution block and jockey change room is shown in Figure 3. The ablutions are many decades old, and the interiors are increasingly deteriorating, now being difficult to maintain and also causing health and safety concerns. The changing room facilities are portable buildings that are outdated and cramped for the jockeys.
Figure 3. Current ablution and change facilities proposed for demolition and removal.
Racing and Wagering Western Australia (RWWA) is the regulator of the horse racing industry in Western Australia, and has requested that the Carnarvon Race Club upgrade its facilities to reduce risk by ensuring that health and safety standards are met. The facilities are essential to the on-site event management for race events, and as such the development would ideally be completed prior to the recommencement of the 2017 race season. Consultation: Consultation has been undertaken across the Shire’s Development Services Directorate (only). There are no concerns raised at this stage, however the development will be subject to Environmental Health approvals (through Department of Health for effluent treatment) and a Building Permit process. There is no statutory requirement for advertising the application under the provisions of Town Planning Scheme No. 10. Statutory Environment: Town Planning Scheme (TPS) No. 10 Lot 566 is within a Reserve and is zoned ‘Private Clubs & Institutions – Racecourse & Golfcourse’ in accordance with the TPS No.10 zoning map. Within this zoning and as listed in Table 1 of the Town Planning Scheme an ‘Office’ development is listed as an ‘IP’ use, which Council may approve if the use is proven to be incidental to the predominant use of land, in this case, the Racecourse. The proposed development additionally fulfils other uses as part of the ‘Private Club’ which is a ‘P’ or permitted use. Car parking is required under the TPS No. 10, Section 5.2.
136
Local Government Act, 1995 Specifically, Section 6.2(b) of the local Government Act, 1995 affords Council the ability to waive payments
as outlined below:
6.12. Power to defer, grant discounts, waive or write off debts
(1) Subject to subsection (2) and any other written law, a local government may —
(a) when adopting the annual budget, grant* a discount or other incentive for the early payment of any amount of money; or
(b) waive or grant concessions in relation to any amount of money; or
(c) write off any amount of money,
which is owed to the local government.
* Absolute majority required.
(2) Subsection (1)(a) and (b) do not apply to an amount of money owing in respect of rates and service charges.
(3) The grant of a concession under subsection (1)(b) may be subject to any conditions determined by the local government.
(4) Regulations may prescribe circumstances in which a local government is not to exercise a power under subsection (1) or regulate the exercise of that power.
Relevant Plans and Policy: State Planning Policy No. 3.7 – Planning for Bushfire Prone Areas and Planning Bulletin 111/2016 The Planning Policy and associated guidance bulletin provide for conditions under which a building must be assessed for bushfire risk. The Bulletin provides for the following exemption: “Exemptions from the requirements of SPP 3.7 and the deemed provisions should be applied pragmatically by the decision maker. If the proposal does not result in the intensification of development (or land use), does not result in an increase of residents or employees; or does not involve the occupation of employees on site for any considerable amount of time, then there may not be any practicable reason to require a BAL Assessment.” Shire of Carnarvon Policy C017* The policy sets out the conditions under which a fee or charge may be waived by the Local Government. Under the policy statement, the local government must consider if there are other ways the Local Government has contributed to or waived fees and charges by agreement. Only one application per organisation for waiver of fees will be supported in any one financial year. * The policy numbering has been superceded, this reference is from the Policy as adopted per FC 16/5/16 Financial Implications: The applicant has requested the waiving of standard development services fees for the proposal which would be $1323.35 (1032.86 Development + 290.49 Building). Should the Council support waiving fees, the finance team would re-allocate the funds towards statutory building commission fees, with the remainder (if any) returned to the payee. Risk Assessment: No risk has been identified in relation to the Officer’s recommendation.
137
Community & Strategic Objectives: The redevelopment of ablutions, jockey quarters and new offices will accord with the following Shire goals and desired outcomes as expressed in the Shire of Carnarvon Strategic Community Plan 2011:
Outcome 1.1 Increased tourism within the region
1.1.1 Promote and support local and regional tourism initiatives. 1.1.7 Promote and support festivals, events and attractions that add value to the District’s
economy. Comment: The proposed development is a replacement, expansion, and improvement on existing facilities. From a planning perspective, the development conforms to Shire of Carnarvon Town Planning Scheme No. 10 in all regards with the exception of car parking and parking area treatment, which Council has the ability to vary based on historical use. Car Parking & Treatment of Parking Areas Car parking for the Carnarvon Race Club has a history of informal design and implementation. There are two suitably large areas available for car parking which are cleared, compacted, and do not interfere with access ways. All areas where access is required for emergency and event vehicles are clearly sign marked. Parking for vehicles displaying valid ACROD accreditation is located next to the entry gates where the ground has been heavily compacted and so that there is a limited distance to travel to access the facilities. Special Remarks for development and car parking standards associated with the use of a Private Club are as follows: “Membership, frequency of use and maximum attendance at functions etc. will be used to determine parking requirements.”
It is considered that the redevelopment of this building will not create a significant new demand for car parking, and the existing car parking facilities should be suitable to accommodate users of this facility in conjunction with the use of the remainder of the facilities. State Planning Policy 3.7 and Planning Bulletin 111/2016 In accordance with the guidance of the Planning Bulletin, despite the development being proposed in an area covered by the Bushfire Prone Area, no bushfire prone vegetation is adjacent to the development and vegetation within 100m is unlikely to be affected by a bushfire to the point of causing injury to the proposed building. Also, the replacement of the building should not intensify the development, nor will any person use the facility for substantial time periods, even in the racing season. Fee waiver In accordance with Council’s Policy in relation to the waiver of fees, an application has been submitted (Schedule 8.3.4 (a)) from the Race Club in relation to the waiver of Councils Development and Building fees. The Race Club is a ‘Not-for-profit’ organisation. The facility will benefit events run in the Shire of Carnarvon. No previous grants, reimboursements or financial assistance have been granted to the Race Club in the 2016-17 Financial Year. OFFICER’S RECOMMENDATION 1 That Council waive Council’s Planning Application and Building Permit Application Fees payable in accordance with the Shire of Carnarvon Policy – Waiver of Fees and Charges, for the development of the Carnarvon Race Club and inform club management of such outcome, with fees paid to date allocated to regulatory fees, with any remainder to be reimbursed to the payee. (Absolute Majority Required)
138
OFFICER’S RECOMMENDATION 2 That Council,
1. Pursuant to Clause 68 of the Shire of Carnarvon Town Planning Scheme No. 10 Deemed Provisions
grant development approval for application P76/16 A96 for development of land at CL22753 Lot
566 on P205437 HN 111 Cornish Street, Massey Bay for Offices, subject to the following conditions:
a. The development is to be generally in accordance with the approved plans (Schedule 8.3.4)
dated 22 November 2016, except as modified by conditions of this approval.
b. The exterior building colours shall complement the remaining development of the site, as
to be demonstrated on the specifications provided with a building permit application.
2. Provide the following advice notes in addition to the notes provided in Form 4 of Clause 86 of the Deemed Provisions on the approval granted in item 1:
a. This approval does not confer approval under other relevant legislation, including but not
limited to, the Building Act 2011 and Health Act 1911. It is the responsibility of the
Applicant to determine any necessary approvals required and obtain such approvals prior
to the commencement of development and use. However to assist in understanding the
necessary requirements and approvals, further information can be obtained by contacting
the Shire of Carnarvon Building Services and Environmental Health Departments on (08)
9941 0000.

QQQQQ File No: 4A0187 Date of Meeting: 22 November 2016 Location/Address: Part of Lot 1179 on P213005, Part of Lot 1193 on P181640, Part of Lot 1147
on P173472 at David Brand Drive, Carnarvon Name of Applicant: Shire of Carnarvon Name of Owner: Shire of Carnarvon Author/s: Helen Karageorgiou, Economic Development and Planning Officer Declaration of Interest: Nil Voting Requirements: Simple Majority Previous reports: 22 March 2016 Summary of Item: This report seeks to inform Council of the completion of the final Outcomes Report (attached as Schedule 8.3.5(a)) and Geotechnical Study (attached as Schedule 8.3.5(b)) completed by the consultants Whelans Town Planning (Tender No 02/2016) in preparation for the Brockman Park Structure Plan and Development Prospectus. Description of Proposal: Under delegated authority, the CEO awarded the Tender for this Project to Whelans on 1 July 2016 after which a letter of acceptance was sent to the company on 9 June 2016. As previously indicated the aim is to provide a detailed Structure Plan and Development Prospectus in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Planning and Development (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015 that describes, graphically illustrates, and spatially articulates the future built form recommended for the study area by its current zoning. The first milestone of this project has now been achieved with the presentation of an Outcomes Report, following the initial literature review, site inspection and analysis and stakeholder consultation. Background: Council has previously considered the project brief for the Brockman Park Structure Plan on 22 March 2016. A Steering Group was established, with Councillor Brett Smith (Chair) and Councillor Ed Garrett sitting on the Steering Group. An inception meeting was arranged on 4 July 2016 followed by a workshop with key stakeholders on 22 July 2016 at the Shire offices, attended by representatives of the following key stakeholders:
Shire of Carnarvon
WA Country Health Service
Housing Authority
Gascoyne Memorial Fund
Gascoyne Development Commission
Carnarvon Chamber of Commerce
Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet
Silverchain
Yamatji Marlpa Aboriginal Corporation
Office of Vincent Catania MLA, Member for North West Central Consultation: A public survey was conducted during September 2016 that was designed to obtain local knowledge of and aspirations for the site. Utilising the on-line consultation tool CollabMap, the public was able to provide their comments on the opportunities and constraints of developing the site for aged care accommodation. Officers commented on the first draft of the Outcomes Report submitted by the consultants, and after
144
modification it was distributed to all the members of the Steering Group for review and comment by 28 October 2016. The final Outcomes Report is now complete and submitted for approval by Council. Statutory Environment: Town Planning Scheme (TPS) No. 10 The property is currently zoned “Special Use – Aged Care” with Development requirements in Schedule IX of TPS No. 10. Planning and Development (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015 – Schedule 2 (Deemed Provisions) Part 4 of the Deemed Provisions outlines the requirements of Structure Plans. Relevant Plans and Policy: There are no relevant plans or policy relating to the Outcomes Report. Financial Implications: The project is allocated funding within the 2015-16 Budget COA 1952 Job 1954 for $250,000 which is Royalties for Regions Grant funding already received. The lump sum price tendered by the consultant Whelans Town Planning for this Project is $187 876 (including GST). Risk Assessment: There are no risks identified with this project. Community & Strategic Objectives: The proposal supports the following outcomes from the Carnarvon Strategic Community Plan 2011:
Comment: The literature review, site investigations, stakeholder workshop and public survey has identified the opportunities and constraints for a variety of key issues, such as aged care accommodation, site layout and land uses, built form, accessibility, open space and servicing of the site and provided views on how these issues could be addressed to contribute to the development of an aged person’s accommodation facility. Strong support for additional aged person’s accommodation and the suitability of the site with regards to its proximity to the Town Centre and Fascine and a desire for a safe and sustainable development, were some of the key findings of the report. As well as the information collected from the stakeholder workshops, there were 20 submissions received from the public. The information obtained within these submissions will be considered in the development of the draft Brockman Park Structure Plan. The second deliverable for the first Phase of the Project was the Geotechnical Report. The objective of this report was to confirm the geotechnical suitability of the site for the proposed development, by assessing the subsurface soil and groundwater conditions, and to provide recommendations on suitable footing
Outcome 3.7 Housing and transport options that respond to our community’s needs.
3.7.4 Facilitate and possibly participate in the development of a lifestyle village for seniors.
3.7.5 Advocate for residential aged care facilities to be available locally.
145
systems. The report concluded that the site is capable of supporting the proposed development subject to certain minor site preparation measures. OFFICER’S RECOMMENDATION That Council accept the Outcomes Report and Geotechnical Study attached as Schedules 8.3.5(a) and 8.3.5(b) respectively.

Providers across the sector range in size from those that operate a single service to those that operate multiple services. Of Home Care providers, 48 per cent operate a single service business and 14 per cent operate seven or more services. Similarly, the majority of residential care providers (64 per cent) operated only a single home while 2 per cent of providers operated more than 20 homes.
In 2013-14, 49 per cent of home care providers predominantly operated in metropolitan areas. A further 5 per cent operated services in both metropolitan and regional locations. A total of 43 per cent of providers predominantly operated in regional locations.
In the residential care sector, 58 per cent of providers predominantly operated in metropolitan areas. A total of 39 per cent of providers predominantly operated services in regional locations. The remaining 4 per cent of providers operated services in both metropolitan and regional locations.
The aged care workforce totals over 350,000 workers with around 61 per cent working in residential aged care and 39 per cent working in home care and home support. In addition, informal carers and volunteers perform a critical role in caring for older people, especially in supporting older people living at home.
Supply of aged careThe Australian Government regulates the supply of home care packages and residential care by specifying a national provision target of subsidised operational aged care places for every 1,000 people aged 70 years or over, known as the aged care provision ratio.
As part of the reforms which commenced in 2012-13 the aged care provision ratio is set to grow from 113 places for every 1000 people aged over 70 to 125 places by 2021-22. As the number of places increase, the mix of residential and home care will concurrently change. The target for home care packages will increase from 27 to 45 and the residential target will reduce from 86 to 80 (Chart ii).
The change in mix between home care and residential care from 25:88 to 45:80 is intended to respond to the reported consumer preference to stay at home where possible.

The total lump sum pool has increased significantly.
The total lump sum accommodation pool has increased significantly and is expected to have grown by around $3 billion by the end of 2014-15 (Chart vii).
The average actual prices for RAD/DAP was $333,000/$58.02 at 30 June 2015, compared with average new bonds of $296,000 during 2013-14 with prices higher in city areas.
Reform impacts to dateThe reforms have had a noticeable impact in a range of areas. ACFA notes that the overall sector is diverse and that there is also great diversity among providers within the residential and home care sectors. Reform impacts will thus vary across the sector and between providers. It will take some time for the full impacts to be assessed. ACFA will continue to monitor the impacts of reform.
Improved financial results in residential care sector since the reforms.
The improved financial results likely reflect the accommodation payment reforms and the 2.4 per cent increase to subsidies from 1 July 2014.
Consumer choice of method of accommodation payments favours Refundable Accommodation Deposits (RADs).
Consumer3 choice of form of accommodation payment in residential care favours lump sum RADs at 41 per cent over rental style Daily Accommodation Payments (DAPs) at 35 per cent and combination payments at 24 per cent as shown in Chart vi.

Chart 7.7: Operating performance ratios, change 2012-13 to 2013-14
A higher proportion of total for-profit providers were present in the top quartile of ranking by profit per resident (see Chart 7.8 and Chart 7.9). However out of the provider types in the top quartile, government providers performed the best. Conversely a higher proportion of not-for-profit providers are present in
the bottom ranked quartile for EBITDA per resident. Government providers are primarily in the bottom quartile and have the largest negative EBITDA. Nevertheless providers of all ownership types are present in each quartile.

Independent Living Units Modelling of future demand for ILUs is based upon the following assumptions:
• Sourced population projections used in this analysis are from the National Aged Care Data
Clearinghouse: Population projections, 2012 (base) to 2027 for all states and territories at Statistical
Area Level 2 (SA2) by sex and age data set.
• Average age of residents moving into an ILU in Carnarvon is 74, with an average duration of
residence being between 5 to 10 years.
• Proportional market demand for ILUs is based on the 35% of survey respondents aged between 55
and 70 years old having intentions of moving into an ILU when they are 70 years or older with (Verso
2012).
• 88% of ageing residents intending on remaining in Carnarvon (Verso 2012).
• Existing supply of 35 ILUs (with an additional 15 to be constructed) provided by the Gascoyne
Memorial Fund adjacent to the Brockman Park site.
• The total number is the sum of “premium” units that consist of 2-3 beds (15% of total) and price
sensitive “standard” units that have 1-2 beds (85%). Since this model does not assume all the
bedrooms in the 2 and 3 room ILUs are occupied by single residents, the population is divided by a
factor of 1.3 for standard and 1.6 for premium ILUs.

1.3
To calculate the number of units to fulfil the total demand for ILUs, the projected population of residents aged 74-85 is used and multiplied by 0.88 to account for the 88% of residents intending on remaining in Carnarvon. The product of this is then multiplied by 0.35, as the survey by Verso indicated that 35% of the aged population intended on moving to an ILU. The total number is the sum of “premium” units that consist of 2-3 beds (15% of total) and price sensitive “standard” units that have 1-2 beds (85%). Since this model does not assume all the bedrooms in the 2 and 3 room ILUs are occupied by single residents, the population is divided by a factor of 1.3 for standard and 1.6 for premium ILUs. The number of additional ILUs required is calculated as the difference between the total demand for ILU’s and the existing supply of ILU’s.
3.3 KEY FINDINGS Figure 2 outlines the forecast demand for additional ILUs and residential aged care beds to 2027. As the Verso report was analysis was conducted in 2012, the dissimilarity between the Verso findings and the results of this analysis can be attributed to updated (current) population figures and projections.

Hospital Site Visit
WACHS have actively addressed the high care requirements of Carnarvon with a proposed and funded 38
bed new facility currently in schematic design phase for the hospital.
The hospital has room to expand this aged care development to 60 beds in the future should funding
become available
Dementia care and respite will be provided as part of the 38 bed
“Special Rooms” will accommodate bariatric (obese) residents and also couples (2 beds)
Workshop – Introductory Session
Residential Aged Care – high care, also respite, licensed beds allocated by Commonwealth Govt.
ILU’s or Independent Living Units - a housing product with services added as required by the resident.
Issue of ‘low care’ is it a physical facility or a service. In reality it is the latter provided by a care service provider such as Silver Chain SCC, etc.
An 8 bed hostel on site at Brockman was raised by Shire CEO.
There is a small potential middle ground in the form of a respite centre/hostel or a serviced apartment model.
Development Commission ‘blue prints’ identify the need for funding for age care.
Different tenure models – what is the consequence
Potential additional site for ILU’s across the Tramway Bridge on Babbage Island
Tension between local construction costs and delivering affordability.
Caravan parks are operating as de-facto retirement villages – an impact on tourism capacity.
Climatic appeal of Carnarvon for long-term tourism and retirees from ‘down south’
Growing appeal of “lock and leave’
GMF consider there a need for low care bed.
More demand in the region than the Brockman site can fit.
Demand numbers have increased considerably since 2012 Verso report.
Demand is difficult to define. Government policy uses blanket numbers.
Demand different to viability. Need to de-risk until it becomes viable
ILU’s are a different type of housing product to RAC.
Economies of scale. An RAC facility does not lend itself to staging.
Easier to get funding for services than it is for capital.
Royalties for Regions funding for hospital.
What defines success?
Workshop – On-site Session
The site is well located. 5 to 10 minute walk from most facilities ie shopping, medical centre. Senior citizen centre etc
Close to water. Potential for water views at 2 storeys.
The previous use of the site by the local people - swimming creek. Potential for a culturally sensitive landscape outcome for the site.
A need to reaccommodate existing movement patterns across the site.
Potential for landscape continuity between the site and the park.
Importance of passive surveillance and walkable streets and paths. A big wall is actually counterintuitive for security.
183
Page 2
GMF turns it back on the site. In this instance it is a good thing as development of the site will not result in loss of views.
Most of the GMF buildings are past their used by date. There is a proposal to add 15 units to the site.
Opportunity to integrate/interact with GMF.
Potential for serviced apartments and more intensive residential product at the southern end of the site closest to the town centre.
Perhaps Silver Chain could also be at the southern end of the GMF site.
Potential integrate family-friendly and kids play infrastructure.
Site currently has a significant stormwater function which will need to continue.
A number of studies suggest fill to provide a height of 4.2m is required to address storm surge. Storm surge wall could be extended to address fill issue. Fill is not a Shire requirement.
Wastewater pumping station at north of site needs to be considered.
Well used path and large lights that may need to be relocated.
Front door and intense area of development should be located towards the town centre.
More expensive product located adjacent to the water and less expensive to the rear.
Re-alignment of David Brand Drive not happening.
Community safety issues associated with park
Workshop – Open Discussion Session
Modular more mining orientated. Perception that it is less quality.
Brick not appropriate for cyclonic zone.
Framed construction popular - steel frame has freight cost, energy efficiency and corrosion issues – timber is being used in combo with steel.
Market acceptance of frame construction Concrete slab most cost effective.
Productivity of tradesmen because of lifestyle/climate – results in higher costs (40% productivity for same hourly rate) and longer build time (up to 2-3 months)
Aesthetics will be important to the Shire – street presentation and relationship to Carnarvon’s sense of place. Raised, weatherboard cottage.
Buy local policy for State Government input.
Consider operational costs – heating, cooling and maintenance.
Orientated for solar panels and breezes. Older people don’t use air conditioner as they are sensitive to cost therefore cooling breezes are important.
Horizon Power stopped connection of solar panels as grid is at capacity.
Design guidance and planning controls – prescriptive or inspirational
Density vs. functionality and appearance/appeal. Density and yield is not the imperative.
R-Codes: The design principles are generally fine but shouldn’t be tied in to the deemed-to-comply provisions. Design flexibility is important.
Identify the key principles of good design and allow flexibility for the detail.
Connectivity with GMF and look at the whole area as a precinct.
Remove the need for the fence, or a more open fence through good integration.
Potential for sharing of communal facilities.
Reduction of utility costs – ESD principles, passive heating, ventilation, PV, water reuse etc. However, consider it in the context of affordability and focus on the cost effective methods.
Structure plan – more detailed concept plan to be sure it can work and then strip back a structure plan.
Site layout – potential for scenarios.
Housing typologies/indicative plans to provide guidance on the intent and to inform the site planning.
Prospective buyer 1: looking for security, amenity, and access to the surrounding facilities. Worried about central driveway and enabling walk-through access, heating and cooling, and sound attenuation. Price not an issue.
Prospective buyer 2: two bedrooms min, open plan living. Ideally 2 bed + study. 2 car bays. Price not an issue either.
Illustrates the importance of a range of products and different price points.
Gaps in the market: One-bed affordable, good quality for down-sizers. Main market is sub $300k, with some at sub $150k.
Potentially different tenure models – for sale, for lease, DMF, joint ownership through DoH, etc
GMF – only pensioner residents pay rent to “Centre Pay”. The rent is dictated ie 25% - 30% of an individual’s
pension.
184
Page 3
Aboriginal people – looking for smaller places, durable, close to town. Ability to express their sense of ‘home’. Less need for resident parking, but needs accessibility for visiting family friends. Being out on the edge of town makes life hard.
Carnarvon is well-integrated physically and socially compared to, say, Geraldton.
People’s needs are different – some may not need a car, others want space for 2 cars and a boat. Important to have flexibility. People’s needs change over time too.
Capacity to downsize within the development too.
Landscaping - low water use, not lawn. Issue of water costs a dilemma: metered individually so tenants can control their own use, or common metering to maintain quality of landscape.
GMP desire individually metred (power and water) so bills can be directed to residents – an issue with
current GMF model
GMF residents don't use Senior Citizens – full of old people, or the residents are very insular and don't socialise. ‘Ever decreasing circles’. Perhaps other people use Senior Citizens because they are not part of a community?
Gopher accessibility is not really much of an issue other than at the hospital. Footpaths in the town are largely wide enough.
Couples – what happens when one partner goes into high care? Rental product to enable sale of home to fund the care bond/costs. Hence, why important to have a mix of product and tenure.

Brockman Park Structure Plan
A Health Perspective Prepared by Shire of Carnarvon: Health Department
188
Brockman Park Structure Plan Executive Summery The overall structure plan has many positive attributes for the development of a Residential Aged Care (RAC), Independent Living Units (ILU). The location gives walkable access to basic needs that has been shown to increase physical activity produce positive health outcomes. I found good allocation for pedestrian access, allowing for passive surveillance, however the addition of a barrier between position 4 and 6 may provide some restricted access alleviating safety concerns. Allowing for designated parks and gardens and maybe even a community garden, may create greater social cohesion, lower mental health and anxiety concerns. The design of the development will be dependent on developer specifications, however by engaging community input the project has a greater understanding of developing the needs of the local community. The engineering of drainage and land fill in the development will be constructed by experts in that field, and I see no health concerns from what is proposed. The construction of the houses will need to be in line with local needs and it is suggested that engagement from all stakeholders is appropriate in determining social infrastructure, that fits the community needs as housing is important health determinate. The project has many positive attributes and the location does has scope for future growth into a designated Residential Aged Care (RAC), Independent Living Units (ILU) facility that leans to positive health outcomes.
1. Opportunity to convert concrete pools into landscape drainage swales to improve stormwater retention?
A. Although the effects of smaller scale catchment-scale hydrology are not yet fully understood, restoration or protection of important elements of natural flow is important in this area as tidal movements have a substantial effect to water hydrology. (Burns et al. 2016) If flow-regime management is to be adopted, storm water practitioners require new urban stormwater management objectives to protect oversaturation and avoid a pattern of quality of filtered flows. This should be managed to meet the environmental flow requirements of receiving waters as altering physical form may alter natural conditions (Chin & Gregory, 2005).
2. Continuity of pedestrian access?
A. Neighborhood pedestrian connectivity, aesthetics and interesting scenery is associated with increased physical activity and increased social capital and social cohesion. The idea of a shared space of a mixture of community and development, can incorporate social cohesion, however safety is an issue for many elderly people and a boundary for a safe zone may be more attractable for the elderly and persons with disabilities (Moran et al. 2016) The presence of people in the street is mentioned as both increasing and decreasing the sense of personal safety depending on the type of people. The presence of families with children, friendly, smiling, and familiar people, socially responsible residents, or
189
people walking, biking or jogging were considered to improve crime-related safety. On the other hand, indiscriminate groups increases criminality, and the presence of intimidating groups of youths, were perceived as decreasing crime-related safety ( Moran et al. 2016)
3. Encourage views and passive surveillance of Brockman Park?
A. In new development areas, people have not yet developed a strong bonding and sense of community. The social needs include social participation, and this has implications for residences, as anything that may change their everyday lives are of utmost concern to them. While passive surveillance is certainly a desirable aspect for elderly it also needs support of compliance agencies such as police as safety is of high importance for social vulnerable(Yung, Conejos, Chan, 2016) Parks and increased urban canopy are linked to increased physical and mental health, views of nature are fundamentally important to resident well-being (Reynolds 2016).
4. Continuity of landscaping between the site and Brockman Park?
A. Parks and gardens are associated with improved mental health and reduced anxiety and contribute to the local climate of an area by regulating temperature and providing shade Shanahan et al. (2015). However without a barrier to ensure safety patrons may feel insecure in utilizing facilities and uneasy about their personal security if gardens supply easy access to village, especially after dark (Krekel, Kolbe, Wüstemann, 2016).
5. Proposed Silver Chain facility location. Limited integration with future aged accommodation?
A. Medical facilities are of high importance for elderly, the proposed location of Silver Chain facility is positive for the plan (Zandieh 2012)
6. Existing infrastructure: Waste Water Pumping Station?
A. The existing infrastructure for waste water pumping station is needed as is part of Carnarvon’s Irrigation Management Plan. However it is not advised to use the recycled water in the new development as immune compromised elderly may be susceptible to levels of pathogens in the water (Rydin 2012).
7. Pedestrian path relocated to linear park?
A. It is important to maintain accessibility for the elderly and especially those with disability, so access to pathway is essential (Rydin 2012).
8. An additional 15 Independent Living Units (ILU) to be built at the Gascoyne Memorial Fund (GMF) site in the future?
A. Residential housing can improve access to goods and services, the success of neighborhood retail, walkability, success of public transport, and well maintained
190
walkways suitable for wheelchairs and other personal mobility vehicles, future increases of the development is considered desirable ( Moran et al. 2016).
9. Existing hotel: Synergy with hotel accommodation for visiting relatives?
A. Location of current motel is positive for family visits as isolation from family is associated with poor mental health outcomes including depression (Junghyun et al. 2016).
10. Housing style and cost: Cost of construction is a constraint to the provision of affordable housing?
11. Housing style and cost: Opportunity to construct using alternative methods, such as modular to address affordability?
A. The lack of affordable housing has been linked to decreased spending on health and
health care, delays in seeking medical prevention, medication non adherence, and general trade off in food and temperature control. There is some evidence that particular types of housing gives rise to mental health disorders and poor design can lead to social isolation and increased crime. The type and style of housing is very important to the elderly whom feel vulnerable and report positive mental wellbeing in attractive well maintained homes that are in an active peaceful environment, without the constraint of financial pressure (Sanders, Harahan, and Stone, 2010).
12. Potential linkage to existing pedestrian paths?
A. It is important to maintain accessibility for the elderly and especially those with
disability, so access to pathway is essential (Rydin 2012). Repeat 7
13. The site is 2.1 hectares in area which constrains the number of Independent Living Units (ILU) and/or the size of a Residential Aged Care (RAC) facility that can be developed.
A. Planning and delivery of new housing projects has taken place in the last years, with the
focus shifting towards adding value to projects based on a better understanding of housing preferences. The designed model needs to be supported by the population that it is designed for, and must provide the basic and fundamentals needs of the targeted population. The land use that is proposed for usage has many positive aspects in location and access to services that are needed for the target population. The size of the land holding is secondary, to its position and the quality of the development to be constructed (Delgado and De Troyer, 2011).
14. Development of the site is constrained by drainage function and storm surge risk. Substantial fill likely required to address this?
A. Refer to answer 1.
15. Built form to provide passive surveillance of Bibra Way and David Brand Drive?
191
A. Refer answer 3
16. Existing senior citizens centre - Opportunity of upgrade and improvement?
A. Improving the social infrastructure of the plan with the construction of purpose built
facilities gives greater social cohesion, engages residents in decision making and helps develop multi agency partnerships. Age-prepared communities’ utilize community planning and advocacy to foster aging in place. ‘Elder-friendly communities’ are places that actively involve, value, and support older adults, both active and frail, with infrastructure and services that effectively accommodate their changing needs (Alley, Liebig, Pynoos, Banerjee and Choi, 2007).
17. Opportunity for collaborative development site?
A. Collaborative development allows all the stakeholders of a project to negotiate, brainstorm, discuss, share knowledge, and generally labor together to carry out some task, most often to create an executable supporting development. Urban landscapes are characterized by interrelated effects among multiple socioeconomic and ecological systems, a collaborative approach can seriously affect environmental quality and human well-being. Having a collaborative tool and utilizing all stakeholder input can only strengthen the overall concept plan (Hayek 2016).
18. Opportunity to provide aged care accommodation including Residential Aged Care (RAC), Independent Living Units (ILU), community facilities and office space to support community care.
A. Refer answer 13
19. Views to the Fascine. Opportunity for 2 -3 story built form to take advantage of water
views?
A. The location of the structure plan is well positioned to access natural ventilation coming from the Fascine Bay lowering the ambient temperature in hot conditions. Also is helpful at reducing concentrations of indoor air pollutants and can provide some financial relief from using temperature control. With the rising environmental problems, such as global warming, air pollution, urban heat island(UHI) and haze events, the incorporation of urban climate factor into planning is supported by incorporating local natural environments (Chao, Yuan, He and Wu, 2014).
20. Optimum location for community facilities?
A. The structure plan makes good usage of sidewalks, potential parks and gardens,
shopping assessable by foot that gives residences the opportunity to a nutritional diet. Medical facilities and pharmacies are close by suggesting a greater rate of medication for residences and it was found that rates of depression and anxiety were lower when good access to services is provided (Lee and Jang, 2013). Increase public transport with bus
192
transport available to hospital, churches and post offices with dedicated disability access would also be constructive and relieve some transport congestion in that sector.
21. Maintain pedestrian access to Town Centre ?
A. Refer answer 20
22. Structure plan area is well located as it is in close proximity to the Town Centre and other
facilities such as the Medical Centre?
A. Refer answer 20.
23. Interface with existing aged persons housing? 24. Opportunity for future redevelopment of old housing stock?
A. The development of current infrastructure and redevelopment of the area in future is well
placed to suit the needs of the project. Developing the already insisting area utilizes the social infrastructure and the close proximity to town site and medical facilities and provides good health outcomes for residences.

Public Survey Summary This Appendix contains a summary of comments provided by public submissions obtained through the CollabMap website and through a printed survey.
1. Opportunity to convert concrete pools into landscape drainage swales to improve stormwater retention.
Agree: 14 Disagree: Comments:
These concrete pools have been mosquito breeders for too long. Pools are an eye sore and waste of space. About time. Depending on the appearance of the drainage swales. Wonderful Yes, of importance. Great idea. An opportunity to breed mosquitos.
2. Continuity of pedestrian access.
Agree: 9 Disagree: 4 Comments:
Always need access to walkers Great but needs to be a ‘good’ footpath around George Street and Olivia Terrace. No, leave as it, does not go through the GMF complex. GMF has a lot of trouble with kids terrorising aged persons. Yes, advisable People need to access the park. More chance to toss stuff over the fence.
199
Keep footpath with being shared. Good idea. There are safety issues with gophers and pedestrians particularly around the seniors hall car park.
3. Encourage views and passive surveillance of Brockman Park.
Agree: 14 Disagree: Comments:
Definitely need surveillance in this park. What surveillance? x 2 Plant trees, seating plus tables for picnics etc family orientation. Security important. Need views of Parks.
4. Continuity of landscaping between the site and Brockman Park.
Agree: 12 Disagree: Comments:
Never too many parks and recreation areas. Plan water wise plants/ No lawn. Great. More for the inhabitants to destroy. Again plant shrubs and trees. Would be lovely.
5. Proposed Silver Chain facility location. Limited integration with future aged accommodation.
Agree: 14 Disagree: Comments:
Good idea – initiated by GMF management. Great. What aged care? If they can secure funding. Good idea. What aged care? Experienced staff on site. Silver chain in this location should be convenient and helpful. To have Silver Chain would be of great benefit.
6. Existing infrastructure: Waste Water Pumping Station.
Agree: 9 Disagree: Comments:
Where it is located is ok access only needed now and again. We don’t like but we need. Not a problem – no smell.
7. Pedestrian path relocated to linear park.
Agree: 11 Disagree: 1 Comments:
Trees may be obstacle. What does this mean ‐ Please explain? What does this mean? x 2
200
Extend to facility. Is this pathway going to be well lit for the safety of pedestrians walking before and after dark?
8. An additional 15 Independent Living Units (ILU) to be built at the Gascoyne Memorial Fund (GMF) site in the
future.
Agree: 12 Disagree: Comments:
These 15 ILU’s are now underway. Very good. Great. Already underway. In progress now. Currently under construction. JV GMF and DoH. In process of construction at this moment. Very good. Thought this was GMF. What a great idea. Rented and small fee. Excellent – hopefully local builder. Some two bedroom units would be good.
9. Existing hotel: Synergy with hotel accommodation for visiting relatives.
Agree: 10 Disagree: 5 Comments:
Existing hotel has always been well sited. Good point. Good idea. And people with drinking problems. Should not be a factor. Unacceptable behaviour of people using Brockman Park. Sounds good. What about the boozers. Small change for visitors and easy access to facility.
10. Housing style and cost: Cost of construction is a constraint to the provision of affordable housing. Agree: 9 Disagree: 3 Comments:
Costs always matter. No cutting corners for our seniors. No matter what it costs don’t do it. x 2. And? Should already be addressed by the ‘Local Shire’. Pre‐fabricated homes needed. Should be of affordable style and rent has to be affordable. Affordable housing.
11. Housing style and cost: Opportunity to construct using alternative methods, such as modular to address
affordability.
Agree: 9 Disagree: 1 Comments:
Whatever? Need decent houses. Needed.
201
Modular must be cheaper. Yes if built to Shire regs. This should be a consideration of the Local Council. Modular must be cheaper. Use local trades and builder to keep costs down. Not only affordability but sustainability i.e solar, wind energy; own power sources in emergency situations.
12. Potential linkage to existing pedestrian paths. Agree: 10 Disagree: 1 Comments:
Necessary. Important. Surveillance will be needed. No. Don’t want kids to have additional access to GMF Go for it. Surveillance will be needed. Has to be done, no second thought. Paths for gopher, bike and pedestrian use.
13. The site is 2.1 hectares in area which constrains the number of Independent Living Units (ILU) and/or the size of
a Residential Aged Care (RAC) facility that can be developed.
Agree: 10 Disagree: 1 Comments:
Needed in conjunction with hospital. Do it. Residential aged needed in the town. Why? x 2 Yes that is correct. RAC is not a viable option with our population. Concerned by this approach. Find somewhere bigger. Good size block. Near senior citizens hall, shops, medical centre, hospital, fascine walkways
14. Development of the site is constrained by drainage function and storm surge risk. Substantial fill likely required
to address this.
Agree: 10 Disagree: 1 Comments:
Common sense always prevails. How high? x 2. Yes correct. No development please. When it rains it doesn’t want to flood. Will consideration be given to the surrounding residence during construction phase? with regards to dust suppression and noise abatement. Large amounts of fill would ultimately mean large amounts of dust and considerable movements of machinery interacting with local traffic and pedestrians. Appropriate traffic management and dust suppression techniques will need to be put in place as part of the tender process. Is this area still gazetted as a storm surge drain? Were is the water directed once this area is filled in?
202
15. Built form to provide passive surveillance of Bibra Way and David Brand Drive.
Agree: 10 Disagree: 1 Comments:
Please explain passive surveillance. Why isn’t it now? x 2 Surveillance badly needed. Not necessary Very good. Good surveillance needed. Any surveillance is a bonus; providing for and protecting our elders.
16. Existing senior citizens centre ‐ Opportunity of upgrade and improvement.
Agree: 14 Disagree: Comments:
Seniors are well aware of future needs and have ideas. I suppose. x 2. Appropriate. Always needed. Good idea. Supported. Possible extension to hall and lock up storage area required. The site is good. Now would be the time to make changes to the facilities. If accessed by more aged residents will need to be upgraded.
17. Opportunity for collaborative development site.
Agree: 12 Disagree: Comments:
Positive planning? With who? What? Belongs to GMF. x 2. This belongs to GMF not Shire. Men’s shed. Ideal location
18. Opportunity to provide aged care accommodation including Residential Aged Care (RAC), Independent Living
Units (ILU), community facilities and office space to support community care.
Agree: 12 Disagree: 1 Comments:
Young seniors need to be involved. About time. Needed. Good spot if you’ve got a unit in that spot. x 2 So long as the view is not lost. This is Carnarvon prime location. Sufficient (ILU) already viable by RSL. Go for it. Good idea. I might need this service. Excellent. Supported. It will be beneficial if dementia enabling design features can be incorporated into the newly built accommodation
203
Town has limited resources for this age group and can be distressing for family and persons alike if they had to leave town.
19. Views to the Fascine. Opportunity for 2 ‐3 story built form to take advantage of water views.
Agree: 10 Disagree: 5 Comments:
OK by me. No, blocks views for seniors. These heights would cut out the views from the buildings at the rear. No way. x 2. No. Obstructs GMF views and sea breezes. Also aged persons/gophers not suitable. Not appropriate. Will block the scenic view of Fascine for locals and tourists. Take advantage of Carnarvon's beauty. Nice for water views. Just because they are old doesn't mean they can't enjoy.
20. Optimum location for community facilities.
Agree: 10 Disagree: Comments:
Such as? I suppose. x 2. Depends what these are. Would be of an advantage. Men’s shed. With many shops closing down including Target, so the Town has to get more shops and stay. Rents have to be a lot cheaper and you have to be fair dinkum about improving this Town, not just wait for the tourists, come, stay, spend for 4/5 months and go, it is not just for ‘fly by night’ scheme and must be supported by everyone and everyone has to be and get involved. Best of luck. Good. Close to shopping centre.
21. Maintain pedestrian access to Town Centre
Agree: 14 Disagree: Comments:
A must. In good condition for gophers and prams. Needs walk crossing. Need to work with closely with relevant authorities to ensure optimum safety.
22. Structure plan area is well located as it is in close proximity to the Town Centre and other facilities such as the
Medical Centre.
Agree: 10 Disagree: 1 Comments:
Very necessary. Great, so close to town. Very important. Not enough information. Shift Tyrepower. Good. Walking distance good.

1. INTRODUCTION
This report presents the outcomes of Galt Geotechnics Pty Ltd’s (Galt’s) geotechnical study for the proposed aged
care/lifestyle facility at Lots 1147, 1179 & 1193 David Brand Drive, Brockman Park, Carnarvon (“the site”).
The study was authorised by Kerry White from Wave International in an email dated 8 July 2016.
2. SITE DESCRIPTION AND PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
Based on the supplied information, the site is irregular in shape and covers a total area of about 2.1 ha. It is bounded
by David Brand Drive to the south, Olivia Terrace to the southeast, open land and a residential complex to the east,
Bibra Way to the west and open land to the north.
The site is mostly clear with a line of mature trees to the along the southern and western boundaries and a footpath
along the eastern boundary. There are tall light poles roughly parallel to the footpath. There are multiple soakwells
around the site, particularly toward the western boundary. We also noted stormwater outlet pipes from the adjacent
roads direct runoff into the site.
Surface contours provided to us (drawings undated) indicate that the surface is relatively level across most of the site
at elevations of between RL 2.3 m AHD and RL 2.6 m AHD, rising to about RL 3.4 m AHD along the southern boundary.
Note: We do not know if the contour drawing shows the current surface levels.
We understand that an aged care/lifestyle village is proposed. We have not been provided with any details or
drawings for the proposed development, but we assume this will comprise single storey units with an associated
administration building, roads, parking, services etc.
3. PROJECT OBJECTIVES
The objectives of the study were to:
confirm the geotechnical suitability of the site for the proposed residential/aged care development;
assess subsurface soil and groundwater conditions across the site;
provide recommendations on suitable footing systems for the proposed development;
provide a site classification(s) in accordance with AS 2870-2011 “Residential Slabs and Footings”;
provide recommendations and geotechnical design parameters for earth retaining structures;
assess the appropriate site subsoil class for the site in accordance with AS 1170.4-2007;
recommend appropriate site preparation procedures including compaction criteria;
assess the permeability of the soils at the site for potential on-site disposal of stormwater by infiltration; and
advise on any other investigation that may be required for detailed design purposes (depending on ground
conditions, types of structures, deep excavations, etc.).
4. FIELDWORK
Fieldwork was carried out on 13 July 2016 and comprised:
a site walkover to observe existing features;
excavation of 10 test pits to depths of between 2.1 m and 3 m below ground level;
testing with a dynamic cone penetrometer (DCP) adjacent to the test pits, to depths of between 0.9 m and
2 m; and

infiltration testing using the ‘inverse auger hole’ technique at 3 locations, at a depth of about 0.5 m below
ground level.
General
Test locations were positioned by a geotechnical engineer from Galt. Our engineer selected and positioned the test
locations, observed the test pitting, logged the materials encountered, and conducted the penetrometer and
infiltration testing.
The approximate test locations are shown on Figure 1, Site and Location Plan and details are summarised in Table 1:
Summary of Tests. Photographs of the site are presented in Appendix A, Site Photographs.

5. LABORATORY TESTING
Laboratory testing was undertaken by Civil and Mining Geotest in their NATA accredited laboratory. The testing
comprised determination of:
particle size distribution on two samples; and
Atterberg limits and linear shrinkage on two samples.
Laboratory results along with test methods followed are presented in Appendix E, Laboratory Test Results. The results
are summarised in Table 3: Summary of Laboratory Test Results.

6. SITE CONDITIONS
6.1 Geology
The Quobba sheet of the 1:50,000 scale Environmental Geology series map indicates that the area is underlain by two
soil formations as follows:
Northeast part of site: Alluvium, deposits of Gascoyne River – clay, silt, sand and gravel;
Southwest part of site: Supratidal flats – calcareous clay, silt and sand and authigenic gypsum and superficial algal
mats and salt crusts.
We found the general soil profile across the site to be relatively uniform, comprising a layer of sand fill overlying clay
(typically high plasticity) overlying clayey sand / sandy clay.

Page | 4 ABN: 64 625 054 729
6.2 Subsurface Conditions
The subsurface conditions encountered across the site were largely variable, but can be summarised as comprising:
FILL: SAND (SP) – fine to coarse grained, sub-angular to sub-rounded, brown, trace fines, trace rootlets and
organics in the top 0.5 m, trace shell fragments, with some clay clods/clumps below about 1 m, loose
becoming medium dense, moist becoming wet with depth, present from the ground surface to depths of
between 1.0 m and 2.1 m; overlying
CLAY (CI – CH) – typically medium to high plasticity (locally low plasticity), grey, with some fine to coarse
grained sand, trace shell fragments, wet, generally stiff, present to the maximum investigated depth of 3 m.
In TP10 (southeast corner of the site), the subsurface conditions were slightly different to the above, comprising:
FILL: SAND (SP) – as above, with some uncontrolled fill including plastic bottles, plastic wrap, batteries and
metal cans, present from the ground surface to a depth of 1.5 m; overlying
CLAY (CI – CH) – as above, present from 1.5 m to a depth of 2.1 m; overlying
Clayey SAND (SC) – fine to coarse grained, sub-angular to sub-rounded, red-brown, 40-50% medium plasticity
fines, moist, stiff, present from 2.1 m to the maximum investigated depth of 3 m.
6.3 Groundwater
We encountered groundwater in 4 of the test pits (TP02 – TP05) at depths of between 1.8 m and 2.6 m below the
current ground level. These test pits were in the lower lying areas of the site. Given the proximity of the site to the
nearby inlet, we expect the groundwater to be close to sea-level.
A perched groundwater table over the in-situ clayey soils could be expected at wetter times of the year.
7. GEOTECHNICAL ASSESSMENT
7.1 Site Classification
We consider that the site is geotechnically capable of supporting the proposed development.
We have assessed the site in accordance with AS2870-2011, “Residential Slabs and Footings”, and consider that a site
classification of “Class S” is appropriate for the site provided our site recommendation procedures outlined in Section
7.3 are followed.
The above site classification is based on the assumptions that:
1. There will be no excavation across the site (i.e. the thickness of sand fill over the clay will not be reduced);
2. The maximum thickness of inert fill material placed on top of the current surface will be 1 m (i.e. there will not be
widespread loading which may cause consolidation of the underlying clayey strata). If more than 1 m of fill is
required, further investigation must be carried out to confirm the thickness and consistency of the underlying
clayey strata.
3. We have not considered surface hydrology (i.e. flood risk) in the site classification.
7.2 Site Subsoil Class
We have assessed the site subsoil class in accordance with AS1170.4-2007, “Earthquake Design Actions – Australia”.
We consider that a site subsoil class of ‘Ce’ is appropriate for the site. This is based on the presence of stiff clayey soil
and the expected depth to competent rock being less than 40 m.

7.3 Site Preparation
The site preparation measures outlined below are aimed at improvement of the site in preparation for construction of
the structures including on-ground slabs, shallow footings, retaining walls and pavements. Landscaped areas (if any)
will not require these measures.
The following site preparation measures should be followed:
Remove any pavements, services, soakwells and any trees (where required) from the site.
Perform a topsoil strip (50 mm should be sufficient) across the site, including grubbing out of tree roots and
removal of any remaining deleterious materials (including any waste material such as noted in test pit TP10).
Compact the exposed sandy surface to the level of compaction specified in Section 7.4 to a depth of at least
0.9 m.
Any areas of loose or unsuitable fill must be removed and replaced with approved fill (refer Section 7.5). This
includes remediation of all zones where tree roots have been removed.
Where fill is required to build up levels, use approved fill (refer Section 7.5), placed and compacted in layers
of not greater than 0.3 m loose thickness, compacting to meet the requirements specified in Section 7.4.
Note: if the total thickness of fill is more than 1 m, additional investigation is required to confirm the
thickness and consistency of the underlying clayey strata.
Excavate for pad and strip footings and compact the exposed bases to achieve the level of compaction
specified in Section 7.4 to a depth of at least 0.9 m below the underside of all footings. Remove, replace and
compact as required with approved fill any zone not achieving the level of compaction specified in Section
7.4.
7.4 Compaction
7.4.1 Granular Fill
Approved granular fill must be compacted using suitable compaction equipment to achieve a dry density ratio of at
least 95% MMDD (maximum modified dry density) as determined in accordance with AS 1289 5.2.1 at a moisture
content within 2% of optimum moisture content (OMC). Over-excavation and replacement of loose materials may be
required where the minimum density cannot be achieved.
Granular fill must be placed in horizontal layers of not greater than 300 mm loose thickness. Each layer must be
compacted by suitable compaction equipment and carefully controlled to ensure even compaction over the full area
and depth of each layer.
Where clean sand (<5% gravel, <5% fines) is used as fill, a Perth sand penetrometer (PSP) may be used for compaction
control in accordance with AS1289.6.3.3. The following minimum blow counts may be assumed to correspond to a
DDR of 95% MMDD:
0-150 mm: SET
150-450 mm: 8
450-750 mm: 10
750-1050 mm: 12 (or 750-900 mm: 6)
If difficulty arises in achieving the specified PSP blow counts, then a calibration must be established between PSP blow
count and the in situ density.

7.4.2 Clay
The earthworking and compaction of clayey soils is not expected to be required on this site, except for the compaction
of any deep service trenches that extend into the clay.
The in situ clayey soils must be compacted using suitable compaction equipment to a minimum dry density ratio of
95% SMDD (standard maximum dry density) as determined in accordance with AS1289.5.1.1.
The in-situ clay and clay fill will require careful moisture conditioning so that the moisture content of the material is
between optimum moisture content (OMC) and 2% wet of OMC at the time of placement and compaction. We note
that compaction to specification 95% SMDD can be difficult to achieve for the clayey in situ material when not
appropriately moisture conditioned.
For clayey soils, compaction testing must be done using a nuclear density gauge (NDG) in accordance with
AS1289.5.8.1.
The clayey soils on the site will drain poorly when inundated during the wetter times of the year and result in
saturated conditions that may inhibit compaction of the soil. To reduce the risk associated with this, we recommend
that earthworks are not carried out within 1-2 weeks following heavy rainfall, but ideally during middle and late
summer. If difficulties are encountered during compaction due to water, further advice should be sought from a
geotechnical engineer.
7.4.3 General
Over-excavation and replacement of loose materials must be carried out where the minimum density cannot be
achieved.
Fill must be placed in horizontal layers of not greater than 0.3 m loose thickness (except as required for a pioneer
layer). Each layer must be compacted by suitable compaction equipment, and carefully controlled to ensure even
compaction over the full area and depth of each layer.
After compaction, verify that the required level of compaction has been achieved by testing to a minimum depth of
0.9 m:
On each lift of fill on a 40 m grid;
At each spread footing location;
at 10 m centres along gravity retaining wall footings and strip footings (where present); and
at 10 m centres below on-ground slabs and pavements.
Care will need to be taken when compacting in the vicinity of existing structures. This is particularly important if
vibratory compaction is being carried out. Tynan (1973)2 provides assistance with the selection of compaction
equipment for use adjacent to structures.
Large compaction equipment (self-propelled vibrating rollers, etc.) must not be used within 2 m behind retaining
walls. Hand compaction plant must be used.

Page | 7 ABN: 64 625 054 729
7.5 Approved Fill
Imported granular fill must comply with the material requirements as stated in AS 3798-2007, “Guidelines on
Earthworks for Commercial and Residential Developments”. Sand fill must comprise clean sand that is free of organic
matter and have a fines content of less than 5%.
Generally, the in-situ sand fill present at the site is suitable for re-use as structural fill, provided no deleterious or
oversize material is present (>100 mm). All waste materials (plastic bottles, batteries, etc. such as encountered in test
pit TP 10) must be removed prior to material being re-used as fill.
Given the plasticity of the in-situ clayey materials (at depth), we do not consider that this is suitable for re-use as
structural fill (we do not expect any excavations, other than deep service trenches) will extend to this depth).
The approximately 50 mm -100 mm thick topsoil layer may be re-used as structural fill if it is screened of all organics
and blended with clean sand (typically a 1:1 blend would be suitable if there are no permeability requirements).
Where doubt exists, a geotechnical engineer must be engaged to inspect and approve the use of potential fill
materials.
7.6 Footings
Provided that the site preparation procedures in Section 7.3 are followed, shallow footings and on-ground slabs may
be designed for a Class S site in accordance with AS2870-2011.
All prepared footing excavation must be checked by a competent person prior to blinding.
7.7 Earth Retaining Structures
Retaining structures may be designed in accordance with AS 4678 (2002) “Earth Retaining Structures”. We
recommend that all retaining walls at the site be backfilled with free-draining fill, e.g. sand (imported free draining
sand fill with less than 5% fines). For the design of retaining structures, the following parameters are considered
appropriate for compacted sand backfill.

Notes: Earth pressure coefficients are provided in this table for conditions of zero friction between the wall and the soil and with
wall friction of 0.5Φ′. The retaining wall designer should make an independent assessment of the parameters appropriate
to the construction method to be used, including alternative values of wall friction. A horizontal ground surface behind the
wall has been assumed.
Unless a suitable drainage layer is placed behind the wall such that a build-up of pore pressure is prevented, the
retaining wall must be designed to accommodate water pressure behind the wall (10 kPa per metre height). In this
instance, calculation of lateral earth pressures must include the addition of pore pressure (not required for retaining
walls entirely within clean sand and sand fill). A separator geotextile (Bidim A14, or similar, or heavier) must also be
used between the interface of any granular backfill and the in-situ soil.

Page | 8 ABN: 64 625 054 729
Retaining walls must be backfilled with a 300 mm minimum width layer of free-draining granular fill. A slotted drain
(wrapped in a geotextile) should be used at the base of the granular backfill to collect seepage and direct it to a
collection point (either discharging by gravity away from the retaining wall, or collecting at a sump fitted with an
automatic pump system to ensure that it remains dry).
Compaction plant can augment the lateral earth pressure acting on retaining walls. Hand operated compaction
equipment is recommended within 2 m of any retaining walls to minimise compaction pressures.
It is important to note that some ground movement will occur behind any soil retaining system, including gravity
retaining walls.
Detailed design of retaining structures should be undertaken using methods appropriate to the proposed retention
system.
The prepared foundation for all retaining walls must be checked and approved by a competent person prior to
blinding.
7.8 Stormwater Disposal
The results of the infiltration tests carried out at two locations are included in Appendix D, Infiltration Test Results.
The minimum measured permeabilities are greater than 7 m/day for the in situ sandy soils. We note that the tests
were only carried out at a depth of about 0.5 m below the existing surface level.
We consider that sands at the site are suitable for on-site disposal of stormwater by infiltration using soakwells
assuming that the site preparation requirements outlined in Section 7.3 have been carried out. Notwithstanding the
results of the infiltration testing, we recommend a design value of permeability (k) not greater than 5 m/day for the
in-situ sand to allow for the variability in materials and reduced permeability as a consequence of:
densification of sand during site preparation works;
natural variation in sands; and
clogging of the sand around soakwells and soakage basins over time with fines.
If imported sand fill is proposed for use within the site, the permeability of this material will need to be separately
assessed.
Soak wells should be placed outside a line of 1V:2H extending below the edge of the nearest footing, subject to local
council regulations. Discharge from soak wells has been known to promote densification of loose sandy soils, leading
to settlements of footings and slabs. Soak wells should be carefully wrapped with geotextile to prevent migration of
sand and fines into the soak well.

3. SOIL LOGS
Our reports often include logs of intrusive and non‐intrusive investigation techniques. These logs are based on our
interpretation of field data and laboratory results. The logs should only be read in conjunction with the report they were issued
with and should not be re‐drawn for inclusion in other documents not prepared by us.
4. THIRD PARTY RELIANCE
We have prepared this report for use by the client. This report must be regarded as confidential to the client and the client’s
professional advisors. We do not accept any responsibility for contents of this document from any party other than the
nominated client. We take no responsibility for any damages suffered by a third party because of any decisions or actions they
may make based on this report. Any reliance or decisions made by a third party based on this report are the responsibility of the
third party and not of us.
5. CHANGE IN SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
The recommendations in this report are based on the ground conditions that existed at the time when the study was
undertaken. Changes in ground conditions can occur in numerous ways including anthropogenic events (such as construction or
contaminating activities on or adjacent to the site) or natural events (such as floods, groundwater fluctuations or earthquakes).
We should be consulted prior to use of this report so that we can comment on its reliability. It is important to note that where
ground conditions have changed, additional sampling, testing or analysis may be required to fully assess the changed conditions.
6. SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS DURING CONSTRUCTION
Practical constraints mean that we cannot know every minute detail about the subsurface conditions at a particular site. We use
professional judgement to form an opinion about the subsurface conditions at the site. Some variation to our evaluated
conditions is likely and significant variation is possible. Accordingly, our report should not be considered as final as it is
developed from professional judgement and opinion.
The most effective means of dealing with unanticipated ground conditions is to engage us for construction support. We can only
finalise our recommendations by observing actual subsurface conditions encountered during construction. We cannot accept
liability for a report’s recommendations if we cannot observe construction.
7. ENVIRONMENTAL AND GEOTECHNICAL ISSUES
Unless specifically mentioned otherwise in our report, environmental considerations are not addressed in geotechnical reports.
Similarly, geotechnical issues are not addressed in environmental reports. The investigation techniques used for geotechnical
investigations can differ from those used for environmental investigations. It is the client’s responsibility to satisfy themselves
that geotechnical and environmental considerations have been taken into account for the site.

8.3.6 REQUEST TO WAIVE AQUATIC CENTRE ADMISSION FEES DEPARTMENT FOR CHILD PROTECTION & FAMILY SUPPORT File No: 4C0301 Date of Meeting: 22 November 2016 Location/Address: Carnarvon Aquatic Centre Name of Applicant: Department for Child Protection & Family Support Name of Owner: Shire of Carnarvon Author/s: Mark Chadwick, Executive Manager Development Services Declaration of Interest: NIL Voting Requirements: Absolute Majority Previous Report: NIL
Summary of Item: This report relates to a request from the Department for Child Protection & Family Support (the Department) seeking Council’s consideration to waive the fees for a Christmas party event it is holding at the Carnarvon Aquatic Centre in November 2016. Description of Proposal: The Department are hosting a Christmas party function on 25TH November 2016 between 3pm and 4.30pm, and through the Senior Child Protection Parent Support Worker have requested that Council consider waiving the cost of fees for entry to the Carnarvon Aquatic Centre. The reason for the waiver, as stated by the Department, is “so that we can purchase other items for the children towards their Christmas Party. The children meet regularly at our office for afterschool classes and some attend regular swimming lessons at the Aquatic pool, we wanted to thank the children and their foster parents for doing a great job.” Background: A letter and email has been received from the Department dated 25 October and 15th November 2016, regarding the Christmas Party event. A copy of this letter is attached as Schedule 8.3.6 Consultation: The Executive Manager Development Services has discussed the request with the Senior Child Protection Parent Support Worker of the Department for Child Protection & Family Support, the Carnarvon Aquatic Centre Manager and Shire CEO. Statutory Environment: The payment of fees is required pursuant to provisions of the Local Government Act, 1995. Specifically, Section 6.2(b) of the Act affords Council the ability to waive payments as outlined below:
6.12. Power to defer, grant discounts, waive or write off debts
(1) Subject to subsection (2) and any other written law, a local government may —
(a) when adopting the annual budget, grant* a discount or other incentive for the early payment of any amount of money; or
(b) waive or grant concessions in relation to any amount of money; or
(c) write off any amount of money,
which is owed to the local government.
* Absolute majority required.
(2) Subsection (1)(a) and (b) do not apply to an amount of money owing in respect of rates and service charges.
251
(3) The grant of a concession under subsection (1)(b) may be subject to any conditions determined by the local government.
(4) Regulations may prescribe circumstances in which a local government is not to exercise a power under subsection (1) or regulate the exercise of that power.
Relevant Plans and Policy: At present the Council does not have a policy in relation to the waiving of fees for Government organizations. Financial Implications: Should Council support the request there will be a potential loss of income to the Shire. That loss will be the amount of the participant’s entry fees should they otherwise be required to pay to enter. The Department has informed that there are 40 children and their Foster Carer’s expected at the event. The child entry fee is currently $2.75 and adult entry is $3.80 and family pass is $10.00. The cost for 40 children above 4 years is $110.00. Spectators and children below 4 year are free. Risk Assessment: No significant risks have been identified. Community & Strategic Objectives:
Outcome 5.4 Long-term financial viability.
Continue to comply with national financial reporting frameworks.
Maintain a high standard of financial management.
Implement long term financial planning.
Comment: According to the Aquatic Centre Manager a similar Christmas party event was held last year and fees were not requested to be waived. Approximately 12 children attended and were catered for at the cost of the Department for Child Protection & Family Support. This request identifies the offsetting of entry fees for the purchase of other items for the children towards the event. Council may wish to consider carefully whether waiving the entry fees for this event sets a desirable precedent for waiving fees for other parties held at the Aquatic Centre or similar venues. OFFICER’S RECOMMENDATION That Council decline the request made by Department for Child Protection and Family Support for the wavier of the Aquatic Centre entrance fees for the Christmas Party booked on the basis that it sets an undesirable precedent to waiving of fees for other government agencies, notwithstanding this request is well intended.

8.3.7 REALLOCATION OF CLGF GRANT FUNDING – CARNARVON AQUATIC CENTRE
File No: 4A0127.03 Date of Meeting: 22 November 2016 Location/Address: N/A Name of Applicant: N/A Name of Owner: N/A Author/s: Mark Chadwick, Executive Manager Development Services Declaration of Interest: Nil Voting Requirements: Officers Recommendation 1 – Simple Majority Officers Recommendation 2 - Absolute majority Previous Report: 25 May 2016
Summary: This item relates to the reallocation of a portion of the Country Local Government Fund (CLGF) funding presently allocated in this year’s municipal budget to refurbishment of the Carnarvon Aquatic Centre. It is proposed Council: Reallocate the CLGF funding component for the Relocation of Water Park and Water Bowl Bulkhead to be used for the work required to complete the decking and surrounds and also to provide hard shade structures at the Carnarvon Aquatic Centre. Description of Proposal: To date a POR for the amount for the decking and surrounds has been made for the budgeted amount of $41,000 which is sufficient for only 50% of the required concreting works. Reallocating the funding for the Water Park and Bulkhead Water Bowl will enable the completion of all the works required to the deteriorated decking and surrounds as well as install much needed shade at the shallow end of the pool. This will benefit all users of the swimming and toddler pools. Background: At the ordinary meeting of Council on 24 May 2016 Council resolved as follows; “COUNCIL RESOLUTION Cr Garrett/Cr M March That Council, in consideration of Alternative Recommendation 1 above, and pursuant to Regulation 33A of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations, approve a budget variation by reallocating $400,000 of the Country Local Government Fund (CLGF) allocation from COA 3154/Job 3155 to:
COA 3272 - Upgrade Swimming Pool Land and Buildings - $200,000.
A new line item in the coming 2016/17 budget – Installation of Photovoltaic Systems to Shire Buildings - $200,000.
That an allocation of $25,000 for the Butchers Street Playgroup Building be itemised for inclusion in the 2016/2017 Budget deliberations.
CARRIED BY ABSOLUTE MAJORITY F7/A1 Cr E Smith voted against the motion (Note to Minute – The Council acknowledged the need for priority works to be performed at the Butchers Street Playgroup Building and added an addition reference to the motion for funding to be considered as part of the 2016/17 budget deliberations.) “
254
Consultation: On 30 August 2016 the Shire received an engineer’s paving upgrade report it requested for the Carnarvon Aquatic Centre. The total costs including to replace, repair and paint the pool decking paving amounted to an estimated $56,440. Quotes received from contractors came to $41,000 for only 50% (600m2) of the concrete replacement work which is within the existing budget, however the remaining repair and painting is outside the current budget allocation. The engineer’s estimate for completing the concrete repair and painting is approximately $30,000. A quote has been received on 9 November 2016 indicating the work can be done within the funding available. The Shire has also considered the need for additional shade between the toddler and main pool for competitions and for the carers watching their children using the toddler’s pool. Estimates for a 20 metre long shade structure is $30,000. Therefore it is considered that at least $60,000 is needed to complete the decking and shade structures as proposed in the engineers report. Consultation has occurred between the Executive Manager of Development Services and Executive Manager Infrastructure Services supporting the officer’s recommendation. Statutory Environment: CLGF Financial Assistance Agreement (FAA) The transfer of funds can only be made through a variation to the FAA, as approved by the Department of Regional Development. In this context the funding cannot be used for infrastructure and maintenance works, only the upgrade of capital items that benefit the community. Local Government Act, 1995 For this financial year (2016/17 budget) an amendment will need to be made pursuant to Regulation 33A of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations by a vote of absolute majority. Relevant Plans and Policy: Nil. Financial Implications: The proposed reallocation will result in a change to the budget as follows;
COA COA Description Current Budget Current Budget Current Budget
132940 INFRASTRUCTRE ASSETS - AQUATIC CENTRE 25,000.00 (25,000.00) 0.00
131820 SWIMMING POOL MAINTENANCE - SPECIFIED MAINTENANCE
179,589.00 (35,000.00) 144,589.00
132640 LAND & BUILDINGS SWIM POOL 92,500.00 60,000.00 152,500.00
BUDGET VARIATIONS TOTAL 0.00
Risk Assessment: If Council were not to proceed with completing the deck and surrounds there is a risk that it would miss an opportunity to complete the full works required and also to reduce risks associated with the reported safety hazards of the existing decking as well as the need for additional shade at the pool for the benefit of all users.
255
Strategic Implications:
Outcome 3.4 Improved passive and active leisure and recreation facilities.
3.4.4 Implement the Shire Recreation Plan to upgrade public facilities and open spaces to optimise use.
3.4.6 Progress the development of the Aquatic Facility as a multipurpose sports hub.
Voting Requirements Officers Recommendation 1 – Simple Majority Officers Recommendation 2 - Absolute majority Comment Since Councils decision to relocate the water park it has been identified that the costs of doing the decking and surrounds has been under estimated and the provision of additional shade within the decking area overlooked. It is therefore proposed that CLGF funding be prioritised towards completing the works required for the decking and surrounds and install hard shade structures, as recommended in Cancer Council Guidelines. In addition, the Water Park is unlikely to be able to be relocated at the budgeted amount and will also require new design and approvals from the Department of Health to be able to be incorporated within the Aquatic Centre premises. It is therefore considered not feasible to proceed with the relocation of the Water Park at this time. The water park may continue to be effectively used where it is currently located, but will require ongoing maintenance including installing new pumps which have been ordered within the existing maintenance budget. The balance of funds may be allocated towards providing upgrades to existing infrastructure at the existing Baxter Water Park and the design of a new fit for purpose Water Park at the Aquatic Centre in the future. OFFICER’S E RECOMMENDATION 1 That Council: Endorse the following works utilising the allocation from Country Local Government Fund (CLGF) presently allocated to Relocate Water Park:
a) Complete the full refurbishment of pool deck and surrounds, and
b) Install shade to Cancer Council Guidelines within the decking surrounds.
OFFICER’S RECOMMENDATION 2 That Council, pursuant to Regulation 33A of the Local Government (Financial Management) Regulations, approve a budget variation by;
a) Reallocate $25,000 balance remaining of the Country Local Government Fund (CLGF) allocation from COA 132940 Infrastructure Assets – Aquatic Centre to COA 132640 Land & Buildings Swim Pool.
b) Reallocate $35,000 balance remaining of the Country Local Government Fund (CLGF) allocation from COA 131820 Swimming Pool Maintenance – Specified Maintenance to COA 132640 Land & Buildings Swim Pool.
