MAYOR’S REPORT & COUNCIL NEWS
FROM THE MAYOR
Soldier On
Under the leadership of Jacqui Bateman, the Robe
Community has embraced the provision of respite care
in partnership with the Soldier On support group.
Many Robe businesses have assisted and contributed
to the program. The feedback from the first recipients
has been very positive and led to a program to allow for
more Robe visits.
As a follow up, a representative from the Soldier On
organization will give a community briefing and Q/A
session. This will be at the Robe Golf Club on Friday,
July 10th commencing at 7pm.
Please come along and listen in to Justin from Soldier
On’s’ talk, all are welcome.
Call For Feed Back
Last month I reported on the Small Town futures
workshop, as a follow on, I seek assistance with the
following request.
Imagine you have not been to Robe for 5 to 10 years
and you are sending a postcard to a close friend or
family member telling of the changes. Please write,
email or even send a post card, C/- District Council of
Robe.
The results will be shared in future newsletters. Please
encourage younger family members to join to provide a
broader perspective.
Sometimes there are hiccups in our
day that stop us from enjoying and
achieving the things that we were
hoping would happen. Then there are
other times when things go
smoothly….BUT sometimes there are times that are
pure gold. We feel like bottling them up and taking them
with us, to keep that feeling of happiness and
satisfaction.
Last week I had that feeling. I visited one of the CCOWS
sites and saw staff working seamlessly together,
focussed on the children, with much busy chatter,
interaction and contentment. Happy and involved
children, nurturing and capable staff. What a joy. Well
done CCOWS.
Robyn.

FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE
Robe Jetty – update
Several months ago, Council were considering the future of the Robe Jetty which Council lease from the Department of Planning
Transport and Infrastructure. A recent report identified that there are sections of the jetty that need repairing. As the first step
in undertaking these repairs, Council has engaged engineers to prepare a condition assessment report on the jetty.
Managing our rubbish
In order that Council and the community better manage rubbish, Council, with support of the regional Local Government Association
and Zero Waste SA undertook a Recycle Right bin tagging program. This program is aimed at reducing the amount of rubbish that is
placed in recycling bins, thus contaminating the recycling materials. As everyone would be aware, if recyclable material is
contaminated, Council have to pay a fee to have this material dumped in a landfill. Council’s additional costs are passed on to the
community via the garbage and recycling collection service charge.
The bin tagging project was a success with an initial reduction of 48% in contaminates within recyclable material and Council,
through education will be continuing to advise and assist the community to reduce the additional costs associated with contaminated
recycling. Thank-you for your cooperation.
Community Wastewater Management System
Thank you to the residents of Dening Street for your cooperation and patience during the replacement of 400 metres of effluent
rising main.
2015-2016 Council Budget
Council have adopted its budget for 2015-2016 and detailed below are the main points.
Council has budgeted for a 3% increase in rate revenue which is a combination of a 2% increase in the rate in the dollar and a 1%
increase as a result of development (growth) within the district. This rate increase is in line with Council’s Long Term Financial Plan.
Council will be providing its operational services at the same level as last year with no planned increases or decreases in service
levels and no new services planned.
Council are planning to undertake the following capital projects in the upcoming year;

Council have applied for a grant of $300,000 which will be matched from Council funds to upgrade the medical centre.

Council have budgeted $300,000 to be spent on infrastructure upgrades to the Marina infrastructure as identified in the Marina
Infrastructure Condition Assessment Report. The actual infrastructure that will be upgraded is still being prioritised dependent
upon engineering advice currently being obtained.

Council have budgeted to commence the rehabilitation of the Council Landfill on Evans Cave Road.

Township road re-seals; Lord Syleham, O’Halloran and Sturt Streets.

Council are continuing to implement its unsealed road strategy which aims to re-sheet approximately 20 kilometres of
unsealed road annually. This strategy is in its third year and already the rural community are starting to see the benefit of this
program.
Community infrastructure projects including;

Lighting the marina board walk.

Repairs to the Beacon Hill Lookout.

Redevelopment of Jumbo’s landing, in conjunction with the Lions Club.

Beach access at West Beach.

Upgrade community facilities at Greenways.

Upgrade Foreshore footpath.

Repairs to the Robe Jetty.
Managing the government’s and community's expectations in relation to governance and accountability will continue to consume a
substantial portion of Council’s administrative services as the legislative requirements that impact on Robe Council are the same
requirements that the metropolitan Councils must adhere to. In order to contain these costs, Council rely on resource sharing
arrangements with our regional partners.
Council’s budget reflects a serious effort to contain our operating costs and the current low inflation rate has assisted Council to do
this. Council believe it has kept rate rises to an acceptable level, balancing the community’s willingness to pay increased rates with
the community’s demands for new and improved services. Council believe that it has achieved a balance that focuses on maintaining
and improving the town and districts infrastructure which will serve the community well into the future.
A copy of Council’s 2015-2016 Annual Business Plan and Operating Service Standards are available at the Council office and on
Council’s website.

LOCAL DOCTORS
PROVIDE EDUCATION
FOR THE
ROBE AND KINGSTON
COMMUNITIES
The Robe Bowling Club was the venue on
Wednesday evening 10th June , for an education
session on Cervical and Ovarian Cancer and the
importance of Pap Smears as a screening tool. The
Kingston-Robe Women’s Health Advisory Group
(WHAG) had an offer from Dr Robin Adams and Dr
Jessica Chueh soon after their arrival on the
Limestone Coast, to provide this local education. A
group of about 25 people attended and found the
session very valuable. Robin and Jessica made the
session relaxed and open for questions throughout
the presentation. Everyone agreed it was excellent.
A small true and false quiz helped everyone come
away feeling a lot more informed.
Local Robe WHAG members, Val Aylesbury, Met
Riseley and Lorna Johns with helpers Ruth Dening
and Lorraine Dening provided a delicious supper
and gave an opportunity for Robin and Jessica to
speak informally with individuals.
Robe and Kingston are most fortunate to have Robin
and Jessica as young doctors prepared to do this for
our local community. They have recently returned
from Ontario Canada where they were married.
They were congratulated by the group and also
thanked for their greatly appreciated efforts.

RECIPE
Roast Tomato and Bread Soup
·
·
·
·
·
·
·
·
·
·
·
·
½ bulb of garlic
2 red onions
2 kg ripe tomatoes
1 pinch dried oregano
sea salt
freshly ground black pepper
olive oil
1 litre organic vegetable stock
a few sprigs of fresh basil
1 x 280 g ciabatta loaf
red wine vinegar
extra virgin olive oil
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Break the garlic up into cloves and peel and cut the onions into 3cm wedges. Halve and lay
the tomatoes in a large roasting tray, cut-side up, then scatter over the unpeeled garlic cloves and onion wedges. Sprinkle
with oregano, season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with olive oil. Roast in the hot oven for 50 minutes to 1 hour, or
until the tomatoes are soft and sticky.
Scrape everything from the tray into a large saucepan. Pick out the garlic cloves and squeeze the soft flesh into the pan,
discarding the skins. Pour in the stock then roughly chop and add the basil stalks with most of the leaves. Cut the ciabatta
loaf in half and tear one half into the soup. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, put a griddle pan on a high heat. Slice the remaining ciabatta and griddle until lightly charred on both sides.
Add a splash of red wine vinegar to the soup, then blitz with a hand blender until fairly smooth. Ladle into bowls, drizzle
with extra virgin olive oil and scatter with the remaining basil leaves. Serve with the slices of griddled ciabatta.
