An important consideration for the facility was to allocate the facility in accordance with user needs and balancing public amenity. A suitable location was identified and the external walls of the public toilet could be treated to achieve this. Treatment options included architectural embellishments; laser cut panels or screens and will be subject to final design and costs. At the 1st Ordinary Council Meeting held on 10 November 2015 Council resolved to lay the matter on the table as follows: New Public Toilet Installation Common No. 1977924 Procedural Motion THAT this item lay on the table until such time as further information about a potential new site is investigated and reported back within a 3 month period.

Following the success of the trial the Association applied for a licence to operate the market from 30 April 2016 to 29 October 2016. The Association has identified that the electrical infrastructure requires upgrading to provide adequate lighting and power for stall holders to operate a night market The upgrade work is estimated at $200,000.00 and a grant for this amount has been sought from the Northern Territory Government. 23 24 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 2 16A0003 LC:mp MALAK MARKETPLACE RECOMMENDATIONS THAT Report Number 16A0003 LC:mp entitled Malak Marketplace, be received and noted. BACKGROUND Council issued a temporary licence to trial markets at Malak shopping centre car park from 5 September 2015 to 10 October 2015 which proved successful. The initiative was supported by seed funding of $10,000 from the NT Government. DISCUSSION Ms Lina Paselli, Ms Sachi Hirayama and Ms May Aggabao from Malak Marketplace Organic Farmers Market Association will attend Council’s meeting on 9 February 2016 to address the matter and seek Council’s support. Darwin Community Arts Incorporated trading as Malak Marketplace Organic Farmers Market has written to Council requesting approval to operate a market on Council’s car park adjacent to Malak Shopping Centre on Saturday evenings from 30 April 2016 to 29 October 2016. The issue of a licence to operate a market is an operational matter covered by the Council’s by-laws so the request can be approved administratively. The Association advises that to be able to operate with this number of stallholders, an electricity upgrade to the site to cater for the needs of the market and its stallholders is required. It has requested Council provide this infrastructure. A quote for $200,000 from an external organisation has been provided by the Association. Upgrade of the electrical infrastructure is not included in Council’s current capital works program and would be subject to assessment of the scope of works and estimated cost and consideration during the budget development. The Association has applied to the NT Government for a grant for the electrical upgrade. Included in the submission is the following supporting documentation Attachment A.

Attachments: Attachment A: Malak Marketplace Business Plan Attachment B: Malak Markets layout plan 26 27 ATTACHMENT A 18 January 2016 Liam Carroll Business Manager Corporate Services City of Darwin Dear Liam: We would like to take this opportunity to thank the City of the Darwin for their unwavering support to Malak Marketplace especially during its trial period last year. The 2015 six-week trial demonstrated the success of the concept and plan for a market in Malak area offering local art and craft products, organic and local produce, great food and entertainment. It has garnered the support of local traders, artists, performers, community and government organizations, as well as tourists. This year we are planning to operate for the entire dry season from the 30th of April to the 29th of October 2016 at Chambers Crescent Carpark, Malak. This initiative would not be possible without the support of different organizations and community groups. We are hoping that the City of Darwin would once again extend its support by waiving the fee for the use of the carpark. An upgrade of the electrical facilities in the carpark would greatly enhance the venue. We are asking the Council to explore the possibility of an urgent upgrade of the electrical infrastructure to cater for the needs of the market and its stallholders. Please find attached our business plan and other documents involving the operation of Malak Marketplace. We are very excited to continue our working relationship with the City of Darwin and looking forward to entering further disussions in due course.

Animals that produce meat, poultry, eggs, and dairy products do not take antibiotics or growth hormones.

This is a winning formula as demonstrated in many of the local food and multicultural festivals and local markets held in Darwin and in Palmerston.

The Malak Marketplace 6-week trial in 2015 demonstrated the success of the concept and plan for a market in Malak offering local art and craft products, organic produce, great food, and live performance. It has garnered the support of local traders, artists, performers, community and government organisations, and Darwin market-goers. I urge you to support the Malak Marketplace.

The MCNT was proud to be associated with the success and outreach of the Malak Marketplace project during the 6 weeks trial period in late 2015. We look forward to further developing our productive partnership with the Malak Marketplace management team, and welcome the opportunity to support and recommend their proposal to the City of Darwin for the use of the Malak Shopping Centre car park for the Malak Marketplace during the 2016 Dry Season. The MCNT has been involved in collaborative projects with partner agencies in Malak over the years, and we will work closely with the Malak Marketplace and Darwin Community Arts to ensure the success of this project into 2016 and beyond. We are excited about the project’s potential benefits and social enterprise opportunities for our clients. The MCNT will share our facilities and resources, and synergise our ongoing activities and events, with this project. For recently-arrived families from migrant and refugee backgrounds – many of whom are local residents - the Malak Marketplace effectively facilitates active involvement in, and promotes a sense of identity and belonging with, the broader community. From its success to date, it is evident to the MCNT that the Malak Marketplace is creating a vibrant, sustainable community hub, and is contributing effectively to social cohesion outcomes in Darwin’s northern suburbs. The MCNT is drawn to this ambitious community-driven project and its potential to develop social enterprises for emerging artists and local farmers, invigorate the local Malak economy, and provide opportunities for the broader community to experience the richness of cultural diversity through fine foods, fresh produce, arts and crafts, and performance. During 2016 we look forward to contributing to the success of the project. Please feel free to contact me if you require more information about the MCNT’s support for the Malak Marketplace project.

Music, evening vibe. I love the tables setting where in the middle of the market. People and produce, great selection The diversity of stalls/entertainment and people The atmosphere and the focus on providing access to quality organic products. Friendly. Local products. Great stallholders. Well managed. Music. The variety of food types The concept. Spray free or organic produce. Healthier food options than the conventional markets. A gatherine of like-minded people. The wonderfuff assistance provided by managers of Malak Market. 47 48 The atmosphere The healthy environment ..And love the lite music that flows through the night air..& the mixed coulture .. Such a great friendly atmosphere :-) I liked everything from the stall holders to the staff and the people how come to have a look and to purchase our items for sale. As it is on Saturday night, when it doesn't crash with the other miarkets' time The friendly stallholders, athmosphere and easy to get along with people the fresh local organic produce available how organised it was and the feel was always so positive. Thank you! art and craft stalls great atmosphere Q3: What could use improvement at Malak Marketplace Organic Farmers Market? Keep it exclusive so it's different from all the rest of the. More healthy/organic stall priorities. I wish there was more organic vegetables Atm Lighting Careful and informed selection on the stalls with specific criteria that needs to be met applied consistently. Some more kids activities as many parents stated they enjoyed having somewhere to go with the kids on a saturday night. Earily starting time from 3pm till 8pm More food stalls. A waste disposal container,for dirty water. nothing A bit more lighting.. I just believe we need to keep all the stalls Organic, or at least really Healthy to keep with the Theme of the Markets. :-) 48 49 Maybe swaping stalls around as people would get used to them being in the same place. And they will not look at anything else. All the markets I have done I am not in the same place. Toilet hygiene could be improved Need more food stalls Don't agree with sale of fairy floss, sugar coated nuts etc....thought was supposed to be "sugar free" drinks.....what's the difference??? Also there appeared to be a few stalls which weren't actually locally produced items still.... Maybe just simply some more stalls offer more organic based food choices from a non-food sellers perspective it seemed people mainly came for food shopping and eating. there wasnt enough movement and people ended sitting for most of the time at the centre chatting (which is great from a costumer perspective) Q4: Are your sales, on average, better or worse than at other markets you attend? The same This is the only market I attendI'm doing well for the first time to have a Stall at the Market The same This is the only market I attendI was not selling at the market Better This is the only market I attend Better Worse The same Better Better The same Better 49 50 The stall fee could be reviewed. This is the only market I attendOnly one market This is the only market I attendFirst market i attend but i need to improve on more sales The same Better The same Worse Q5: Anything else to add? We enjoy hearing your comments, ideas, and feedback. A great market, well done I love the idea in celebrating the end of market and give a recognition to their hard work to get the market going to whoever entitled to. we can't wait till next year!! I loved entertaining the children! Hope next year we can create an epic kids section, for parents to relax and kids to enjoy! Much love Promotion of health and well being, maybe short presentation opportunities or interviews with stall holders on stage for 15-20 minutes? No foods with high added sugar content. Promote recycling An idea would be to run weekly giveaways drawn at the end of the night. Prizes cohld be from stallholders? This might keep people there until the end. We'd love to donate a gift voucher for our products regularly. Weekly if needed. (Thompson's) The ideal of trading till 10pm does not work for merchandise know one buy anything apart from food after 8 The stall fees are exceptionally higher than other markets such as Nightcliff. Also, calling it an 'organic' farmers market when alot of the produce/products are not strictly organic is deceiving to the un-informed. The singers that enterain. The stallholders are nice to work with. No Keeping up the good food that's on offer..kids colouring compertition may be .. 50 51 Thanks so much for organising them and running them with such an amazing Calm Peaceful manner :-) Lina and Kelvin you Rock :-) I have been talking to people who I do other markets with who are very interested about having a stall at the Malak Markets. They range from jewellery, home made soap, Toys and home made fudge. I hope this was ok I have past on your email address so they can contact you about more information of the market. They liked the idea of a night market and this is only the start of having a great night market. Thankyou for allowing me to be part of your dream. I would love to remain the only cake stall un ordr to improve my sales. Plan to introduce a whole new range of gluten free products for the new season The option to not be at every market......personally for me working every Saturday night during our beautiful Dry season isn't appealing....maybe I'm just not a true market person... Loved having my stall there! Thank you and cannot wait for next year!

Approval of the Master Plan and Stage 1 works and facility is a critical milestone in order for the project to proceed and meet the required timeframes. 61 62 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 2 16TS0030 LC:jw PARAP POOL REDEVELOPMENT – MASTER PLAN RECOMMENDATIONS A.

BACKGROUND Council has developed a proposal for Stage 1 of the redevelopment of the Parap Pool (2011) (Attachment A) that would replace the aged aquatic facilities and provide new FINA compliant facilities including major components of two new water bodies being a 50 metre pool and 25 metre pool. The intent was that the complex would deliver training and competition needs at a fully flexible FINA compliant regional level, on an as needs basis. The City of Darwin has been successful in receiving a $4.48 million grant from the Australian Government and has committed to matched funding in the 2016/2017 budget, bringing the total budget for Stage 1 to $8.9 million. Approved Stage 1 funding is to deliver FINA compliant pool facilities. The project is to be delivered by the end of July 2017. To ensure the redevelopment fulfils the social and recreational needs of the local community and visitors, who comprise the majority of users throughout the year, it is imperative that the new water bodies are designed in such a way as to support learnto-swim, recreational sport and leisure activities. In addition, appropriate and contemporary aquatic play and recreation facilities should also be a major supplementary element of the redevelopment. Parap Pool will need to be strategically positioned within the total leisure aquatic landscape of greater Darwin. 62 63 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 3 16TS0030 LC:jw PARAP POOL REDEVELOPMENT – MASTER PLAN Supplementary community facilities for the Parap Pool redevelopment have been identified. At its Ordinary Meeting on 27 January 2016 Council resolved: DECISION NO.21\4028 (27/01/16) Parap Pool Redevelopment Community Consultation Outcomes Report No. 16C0002 MG:kl (27/01/16) Common No. 2918032 A.

Children’s water play area Children’s Playground Shaded facilities to prepare and share food Aquatic activity for children and youth Outdoor shaded area for community and group exercise use DISCUSSION This report presents the Parap Pool Master Plan Stage 1 (2016) for Council consideration. The endorsement of a Master Plan is a critical milestone and a timely decision is required in order to meet project timeframes. The report seeks endorsement of the Master Plan Stage 1 including: The scope of community facilities The replacement of existing amenities building Total budget allocation Liquid Blu has been appointed to undertake the planning, design and documentation of Stage 1 – Parap Pool Redevelopment. The process requires the development of an integrated concept design for the full site and redevelopment potential. Council has previously undertaken some work in this area and this phase is to test, refine and/or redevelop the overall concept as required to ensure Council and community objectives can be met for the facility and the plan reflects current trends and practices. Stage 1 of the redevelopment works in accordance with the Australian Government grant is the delivery of Regional Level FINA compliant facility namely – 50 metre and 25 metre temperature controlled water bodies and associated facilities. 63 64 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 4 16TS0030 LC:jw PARAP POOL REDEVELOPMENT – MASTER PLAN Liquid Blu has completed an analysis and developed a revised Stage 1 Master Plan including the supplementary community elements under Council consideration, Attachment B. An analysis of the entire site potential and how it would engage with Stage 1 and events has also been undertaken at a conceptual level, Attachment C. It should be noted that the delivery of elements of the Master Plan are to be staged to accommodate community needs and budgets, however core elements for FINA compliance are a minimum requirement of Stage 1. Modern aquatic leisure facilities offer more than just a place to swim. There is an increased attention to facility comfort and design. The current trend is for spaces that meet patron demand for social interaction, health and wellbeing activities and a greater choice and quality in food and beverage offerings. Increasingly, facilities are now designed to accommodate all ages and cultures. Facilities are evolving to reflect these needs with family friendly spaces, more comfortable change rooms and all abilities access, which is delivered as an integrated design element, not just a legislative requirement. The plan also considers how FINA and other event needs will be accommodated at the site. This involves the provision of temporary event structures which need to be provided when the facility is in event mode, to ensure the required FINA compliance (regional/national), Attachment D for example, the installation of existing seating, electronic score boards and media facilities. At its Ordinary Council Meeting on 27 January 2016 Council resolved to include in the design of Stage 1 a new amenities building and community elements The project funding for Stage 1 is for the delivery of two FINA compliant pools and will not enable the redevelopment of the existing community facilities. Following redevelopment, Parap Pool will still function as a community recreational pool for the majority of its usage. Therefore the community facilities are essential elements for the operation of the facility. Council needs to determine the level of funding it will commit to in 2016/2017 for the delivery of a new amenities building and the community elements that will be removed as part of the redevelopment or stage these at a later phase of the project. Council officers recommend that an additional $5 million of funding be provided in the 2016/2017 budget to deliver a new amenities building and community elements as part of the Stage 1 Parap Pool Redevelopment. 64 65 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 5 16TS0030 LC:jw PARAP POOL REDEVELOPMENT – MASTER PLAN A summary of an analysis between the revised Master Plan and that completed in 2011 is as follows: Scope of Works – Stage 1 The current master plan has less facility mix elements than the original 2011 version. This is largely due to budget considerations and identification of core elements required to be delivered in Stage 1, noting the project budget for Stage 1 is much lower than as in 2011. The Master Plan also responds to recent stakeholder and community consultation. Key differences in facility mix: o 25m program pool is covered (fully enclosed in 2011 version) o Tennis courts maintained (relocated to South-East corner in 2011 version) o Occasional care space not included in Stage 1 o External activity spaces reduced in complexity and size o Car parking provision reduced in current master plan (subject to DCA approval) o Bus parking on site not included in current master plan It should be noted that the core facilities currently recommended for adoption are largely in-line with the previous master plan completed in 2011 at much lower project budget. Design Comparison General site layout of proposed master plan is advantageous over the 2011 version due to: o Reasonable efforts will be made to maintain large vegetation on site (particularly the large ‘Beauty Leaf’ trees). o Existing tennis courts (x3) to be maintained. o Established landscaping to be maintained between current access points off Ross Smith Ave. o Stage 1 development maintained in centre of site away from low lying areas where potential for overland flow, ponding and water table issues exist. o Allows re-use of existing car parking elements. o Maintains car parking away from surrounding residential (West and East boundaries). o Lower civil costs as developed area is similarly located to existing facilities. Other benefits of the proposed master plan over the 2011 version include: o 50m pool running on North/South longitudinal axis (as per existing 50m pool on site), this is advantageous as less glare / reflections off water surface will have effect on swimmers on meet days (noting 2011 plan indicated East / West orientation). o 25m pool is orientated transverse to 50m pool at one end allowing simple and efficient extension of the canopy roof cover over both pools.. o Leisure water for children and community areas developed around the large beauty leaf trees become a real asset to the design with enhanced natural shade opportunities and greater community acceptance. 65 66 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 6 16TS0030 LC:jw PARAP POOL REDEVELOPMENT – MASTER PLAN o Service areas occur at the South-West end of the site (access off Holtze Street) providing a safer environment for pool users and pool operators alike (noting 2011 version required access for service vehicles off a large car park); o Stronger linkage with the Royal Life Saving Society Australia (RLSSA) (previously netball club house) increasing usability of existing assets on site. o Removal of netball courts and recreation of large open green spaces enhances the design. o Community areas including BBQ’s tables and chairs and roof canopies occur with greater connectivity to leisure water, dry play spaces and amenities. o Café, kiosk, reception type areas are closer proximity to leisure areas for enhanced supervision. o Greater provision of seating both undercover and outdoor. Council officers recommend endorsement of the Parap Pool Redevelopment Master Plan Stage 1 (Attachment B). Way Forward The delivery of Stage 1 Parap Pool Redevelopment is scheduled to be completed by the end of July 2017. This presents a number of challenges in ensuring timely decision and milestones are met. The endorsement of the Master Plan Stage 1 and any resolution of additional funding for a new amenities building and community facilities is a key milestone. In order for the project to proceed in a timely manner a development application for the Stage 1 redevelopment application is to be lodged by 29 February 2016. Should Council not provide the additional funding the Stage 1 Master Plan, the plan will need to be significantly revised as it relies on the provision of a new amenities building in a new location on site to improve the facility infrastructure, operational layout and spaces. Following Council consideration of matters within this report the planning, design and documentation of Stage 1 works will proceed to allow tenders to be called and construction to commence in July 2016. CONSULTATION PROCESS Extensive stakeholder and community participative engagement occurred in 2015 which identified a number of elements that the community valued as essential when considering the redevelopment of Parap Pool. The proposed Master Plan responds to the outcomes of the 2015 engagement and Council’s consideration of outcomes. 66 67 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 7 16TS0030 LC:jw PARAP POOL REDEVELOPMENT – MASTER PLAN No further community engagement will need to be undertaken, as the Master Plan is informed by the engagement process. The project will move into a communication phase. In preparing this report, the following City of Darwin officers were consulted: Executive Leadership Team Manager Recreation, Events & Customer Services Team Leader, Capital Works In preparing this report, the following External Parties were consulted: Liquid Blu POLICY IMPLICATIONS Nil BUDGET AND RESOURCE IMPLICATIONS Council’s Long Term Financial Plan (LTFP) assumed the Parap Pool upgrade to be at a cost of $20m, comprising $15m from Commonwealth and state government grants spread across 2015/16 – 2017/18 and $5m of Council borrowing in 2018/19. Council has now secured Commonwealth funding of $4.48 million through the National Stronger Regions Fund. The grant terms require stage 1 to be completed in 2017 and Council matching funds. Additional community elements have been identified as part of the project and add an additional $5 million to the required funding. Therefore the total cost would be $13.96M including Commonwealth assured grant funding of $4.48M. Council has to identify funding sources of $4.48M to match the Commonwealth assured grant plus $5M totalling $9.48M. If the continuing approaches to NT Government for a grant are not successful then the entire $9.48M may require Council funding. Although the LTFP does allow for $5M of Council funding this is by way of external loan and not until 2018/19. The current request is a significant change to the original LTFP and the funding options to consider if the Council’s share is to be $9.48M (in the case of no NTG funding) are reserves funds, internal loans (also reserves funds) and external loans. The second quarter budget review this month will provide Council with an indication of its likely end of year position with regard to reserve balances and availability of funds however due to the time frames involved it is considered prudent for Council to seek approval for external loan funding prior to calling tenders for the project. 67 68 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 8 16TS0030 LC:jw PARAP POOL REDEVELOPMENT – MASTER PLAN A summary of the indicative capital implications described above is provided in the following table: RISK/LEGAL/LEGISLATIVE IMPLICATIONS There are a number of risks regarding this project being; Budgeting constraints Timeframe for completion Community expectations Risks and mitigation measures will be continually monitored and reviewed as the project progresses. It is essential that decisions regarding the project are made in a timely manner in order to comply with the conditions and milestones of the Australian Government funding agreement. The current significant milestones are the endorsement of the Master Plan Stage 1, resolution of additional $5 million funding and the lodgement of planning application by 29 February 2016. Failure to meet these milestones will put the project timeframes at risk. Should Council limit funding and staged works over time priority should be given to the development of a new amenities facility building as part of the 2016/2017 budget funding as the Master Plan Stage 1 relies on the relocation of this building. If the building is not funded the Master Plan would need to be reconsidered. 68 69 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 9 16TS0030 LC:jw PARAP POOL REDEVELOPMENT – MASTER PLAN Should Council consider further staging of the new amenities building and community elements the following potential implications and impacts: Reconsideration of the Master Plan with associated costs and delays. Ongoing disruption from the staging of works over a longer timeframe Escalation of costs Community expectations and the associated response Section 123 of the Local Government Act provides: Council's power to borrow A council may borrow money but only with the Minister's approval (to be given only after consultation with the Treasurer). ENVIRONMENTAL IMPLICATIONS The design will take into consideration environmental measures subject to budget availability. This will include measures for temperature control of swimming water bodies and pool shade covers. This will assist in modifying environmental conditions for users comfort and forms part of FINA compliance. The revised Master Plan considers retention of existing beauty leaf trees.

Collaborative, Inclusive and Connected Community Outcome 1.1 Community inclusion supported Key Strategies 1.1.1 Develop and support programs, services and facilities, and provide information that promotes community spirit, engagement, cohesion and safety KEY ISSUES The draft Safer Vibrant Darwin Plan 2016-2019 (The Plan) has been prepared in response to a Council decision to guide a unified and collaborative approach to addressing the impact of alcohol harms on community life. The Plan has been informed by extensive community engagement and stakeholder forums and provides a strategic and operational framework for Council’s approach to addressing public intoxication in the context of community safety over the next four years. The Plan includes targeted advocacy by Council across key change areas, in recognition that no single authority has the mandate or capability to effectively respond to alcohol harms impacting community life, and that community change requires leadership, resolve and collaboration. Carriage of the Plan’s delivery will form part of the work of the Public Places Services Collaboration Group to support shared implementation across sectors. 75 76 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 2 16C0001 KH:kl SAFER VIBRANT DARWIN PLAN 2016-2019 RECOMMENDATIONS A.

THAT Council commence a 12 month Community Wellbeing Pilot Project in response to the priority change areas identified at the National Local Government Drug and Alcohol Committee Darwin Stakeholder Forum on Public Intoxication. 76 77 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: C. THAT the Community Wellbeing Pilot Project include the following key actions; 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. D. 3 16C0001 KH:kl SAFER VIBRANT DARWIN PLAN 2016-2019 Establish a Safer Community Support Service.

THAT a report on progress with the project be provided to Council by 30 June 2014. DISCUSSION In 2013, Council in partnership with the National Local Government Drug & Alcohol Advisory Committee hosted a Public Intoxication Issues Forum to determine priority areas of change, central to improving the Darwin experience. A call for leadership by local government, a more humanitarian response to vulnerable people with alcohol issues in public spaces, reduction in alcohol supply, public space activation and the development of a policy or framework, were prioritised and endorsed by Council as its key platform to underpin a 12 month Public Intoxication Community Wellbeing Pilot Project. Since that time, with the exception of creating a safer community plan, all elements of the pilot project were actioned. Council has since endorsed the project for a further 3 years, in recognition of the complexity of the issues and that population level change takes time, strong leadership and resolve. A great deal of service development, partnership brokerage, advocacy and collaboration has occurred and will continue as part of Council’s commitment to reducing the adverse impacts of public intoxication on community life. In June 2015 Council hosted a second Public Intoxication Issues Stakeholder Forum to build on its engagement process to inform an overarching safer community plan. Attended by 70 stakeholders from a diversity of sectors, all spheres of government and industry, the Forum re-confirmed several priority areas. These areas formed the basis of a community engagement process that invited the broader community to contribute views and ideas for what the safer community plan could include. In late October 2015, an extensive community engagement process was undertaken to garner community ideas and views for creating a safer vibrant Darwin. A comprehensive survey was developed to build a profile of community perceptions, safety, areas of concern, change priorities and new ideas. A detailed account of the engagement process is contained within the draft Safer Vibrant Darwin Plan 20162019. In brief, the process included intercept surveying and facilitated surveying in public spaces, bus stops, taxi ranks, targeted groups, licensed premises and electronic mail outs and pop up survey stalls in each Council Ward. Seven hundred and forty (740) survey responses were received and a small number of email submissions. 77 78 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 4 16C0001 KH:kl SAFER VIBRANT DARWIN PLAN 2016-2019 A comprehensive analysis of the 2013 and 2015 Stakeholder Forum themes, client and stakeholder feedback from Council’s Safer City Program, survey data and hundreds of community conversations have been used to inform the draft Safer Vibrant Darwin Plan 2016-2019. Survey Data Snapshot Of the 740 survey respondents, 60% were female, 40% male. Most prominent age range was 35-55 years. 15% of respondents identified as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander. 83% of respondents were residents of Darwin with almost 40% having lived in Darwin for 10 plus years. Highest number of respondents resided in Darwin city (12%). 45% of respondents indicated they haven’t thought about feeling unsafe or that they usually feel safe. 30% identify pubs, clubs, bus stops, taxi ranks and public toilets as areas they perceive to be unsafe, particularly at night. Approximately 44% of respondents identified the most critical factors impacting perceptions of safety were drug and alcohol related issues including public intoxication leading to anti-social behaviour. Hooning, drink driving and speeding were identified by almost 200 respondents as concerning. Almost 50% of respondents perceived level of crime in the community to be either high or very high, with a further 37% ranking the level of crime as low to very low. 31% of respondents identified public intoxication as a community problem, with 71% indicating it was an issue for all communities to manage. Over 45% of respondents identified theft and burglary as the main type of unsafe activity they most feared in the community. In terms of prioritising areas for change, suggestions included more police, improved lighting in community spaces, reduction in alcohol availability, better management of public drunkenness, actions to address poverty and homelessness and an overall reduction in crime and antisocial behaviour. When asked how community safety and crime prevention issues could be addressed, key themes included more visible police, security and increased levels of CCTV, community programs and education and restrictions in alcohol and drug availability. Almost a third of respondents did not feel adequately informed about local community safety information and services. Local TV, social media and radio were the most common preferences for how people wanted to be informed. 38% of respondents were familiar with Crime Stoppers, 36% Neighbourhood Watch and 15% were aware of the Safer City Program, indicating an area for further work. It is evident that greater attention is needed in capacity building and community education and awareness raising to better support people in feeling safe at home and in public spaces, particularly at night and to ensure community members are aware of available resources and information. Additionally, there is a preference for 78 79 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 5 16C0001 KH:kl SAFER VIBRANT DARWIN PLAN 2016-2019 more visible solutions to address crime and alcohol related problems such as policing, community support, community programs, lighting, CCTV and a general reduction in the availability of drugs and alcohol. There are many activities as well as great ideas that have been suggested during the community consultation process, that when implemented can contribute to a safer Darwin. Responsibility for change however does not rest with Council alone, it requires investment and commitment by all stakeholders and the broader community, coupled with a shared agenda and will for change, within the confines of available resources. A summary of the seven priority area and key role for each priority area as embodied in the Plan, follows. Safer Vibrant Darwin Plan 2016-2019 - Summary of Priority Areas and Goals Priority 1 2 Priority Theme Positive Perceptions of Safety Key Goals Strong Healthy and Connected Community 3 4 5 6 7 Alcohol Supply Reduction Advocacy Safer Public Spaces Safer Community Support Service Assertive Outreach Team Safer Homes To ensure the rights of all residents and visitors to feel safe and be safe in the Darwin community.

To acknowledge that being safe and connected to the Darwin community is essential for individual wellbeing. That there is a greater sense of belonging for all people in the Darwin community. Encourage the active participation of all community members in developing and maintaining a safe community where diversity is valued. Where compassion, respect and assisting to find collaborative solutions is the way forward. To seek a decline in the volume of alcohol being consumed in Darwin.

To increase community awareness of security around the home. 79 80 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 6 16C0001 KH:kl SAFER VIBRANT DARWIN PLAN 2016-2019 CONSULTATION PROCESS In preparing this report, the following City of Darwin officers were consulted: Executive Leadership Team Darwin Safer City Team Manager Regulatory Services In preparing this report, the following External Parties were consulted: NT Police Metropolitan Command - Executive People, Place and Partnership (independent facilitator) A comprehensive analysis of the 2013 and 2015 Stakeholder Forum themes, client and stakeholder feedback from Council’s Safer City Program, survey data and hundreds of community conversations have been used to inform the draft Safer Vibrant Darwin Plan 2016-2019. A Level 2/3 community engagement process was also undertaken that included 740 survey respondents. POLICY IMPLICATIONS The Safer Vibrant Darwin Plan 2016-2019 provides a holistic framework to guide Council’s strategic directions, operational activities and policy development in responding to alcohol harms in a community safety context over the next four years. A solid foundation has been built since beginning the Darwin Safer City initiative. Strong partnerships were developed and program areas established, however there is ongoing need to continue efforts in Council advocacy, policy, community awareness and in responding to the issues communicated through the community survey. Perception of crime, neighbourhood connectivity, advocating for reduced alcohol supply, advocating for creative collaborative solutions as the norm, and building capacity of the community to respond to alcohol related safety issues are substantive endeavours requiring community wellbeing as a priority, considered leadership, advocacy and collaboration. Council has long acknowledged that no single authority has the capability or resources to effectively respond to the adverse impacts of public intoxication on community life and experience shows that a shared response across the service system and active partnerships are critical to achieving positive outcomes. To support effective implementation of the Safer Vibrant Darwin Plan 2016-2019, Council’s Public Places Services Collaboration Group (chaired by senior NT Police) will take carriage of operationalising the plan in partnership with stakeholders to foster collaborative delivery of its key actions and goals. 80 81 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 7 16C0001 KH:kl SAFER VIBRANT DARWIN PLAN 2016-2019 BUDGET AND RESOURCE IMPLICATIONS Following successful implementation of the Darwin Safer City pilot project in 2014/15, Council endorsed its continuation for a further 3 years. The Safer Vibrant Darwin Plan 2016-2019 provides a framework to guide the work of the Darwin Safer City program and more broadly Council’s work in community safety in the context of alcohol harms. Delivery of the Safer Vibrant Darwin 2016-2019 will be achieved within the Darwin Safer City budget allocations. It is anticipated that the Safer Vibrant Darwin Plan will act as a coordinating tool that as well as identifying new initiatives, also earmarks existing programs that in part, can influence Council’s efforts in creating a safer community. As the Plan is implemented and greater internal collaboration and coordination is achieved, some strategies may impact on existing budgetary allocations, such as cleaning regimes or litter services. Regular reporting on the Safer Vibrant Darwin Plan will ensure Council is apprised as implementation occurs and trends emerge. Should further resourcing for emerging pilot projects or one off capital investment be required as the Plan is implemented, philanthropic or grant funds will be sought as opportunities become available. RISK/LEGAL/LEGISLATIVE IMPLICATIONS The Safer Vibrant Darwin Plan 2016-2019 has been informed by Council’s stakeholder network, visitors and members of the Darwin community. While the plan reflects community and stakeholder views, its delivery is contingent on working collaboratively and in partnership with stakeholders and the community. To that end, partnerships require ongoing effort, flexibility and a shared understanding of what’s to be achieved. To support a partnership approach to plan delivery, the Public Places Services Collaboration Group will take carriage of the plan to support its implementation. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPLICATIONS Perceptions of community safety are critical influencers on community life, community connectivity and neighbourhood amenity. The Safer Vibrant Darwin Plan 2016-2019 provides an overarching framework to guide Council’s approach to addressing alcohol harms and its work in supporting a safer community over the next four years. Attaining a safe and vibrant community cannot be achieved by any one entity independently, nor does any single authority have responsibility. Council is however, well placed to advocate for community aspirations and to work in partnership with stakeholders to improve amenity and support a safer more vibrant community. 81 82 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 8 16C0001 KH:kl SAFER VIBRANT DARWIN PLAN 2016-2019 COUNCIL OFFICER CONFLICT OF INTEREST DECLARATION We the Author and Approving Officers declare that we do not have a Conflict of Interest in relation to this matter.

Considerations under the Liquor Act Licensing NT has advised City of Darwin that the following sections of the Liquor Act are relevant to these applications: Under section 32A(5) of the Liquor Act, “If the application relates to premises within the area of a shire council or a regional council, the Director-General must, as soon as reasonably practicable, inform the CEO of the council that the application has been made.” Grounds For Objection Under Section 47F(2) Of The Liquor Act Pursuant to Section 47F(2) of the Liquor Act, an objection may only be made on the grounds that the grant of the licence may or will adversely affect: (a) (b) The amenity of the neighbourhood where the premises the subject of the application are or will be located; or Health, education, public safety or social conditions in the community. Under Section 32A(2) of the Liquor Act, where the Director-General deems that the notice of publication is not required Section 47F does not apply. The DirectorGeneral may seek advice from stakeholders, but an objection under Section 47F(2) is not available as the application is not required to be published. 108 109 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 3 16C0010 MG:kl COUNCIL RESPONSES TO LIQUOR LICENCE APPLICATIONS FEBRUARY 2016 Council as a stakeholder is invited to supply comment to the Director-General on all licence applications. Objections may only be lodged if Council considers there are grounds under Section 47F(2). The Liquor Act is specific in detailing the grounds that entitle an objection to be considered, however Council can still provide comment on applications where grounds for objection are not applicable. DISCUSSION Liquor Licence Applications that City of Darwin Officers cannot identify any reason that would be grounds for objection under Section 47F(2) of the Liquor Act. Council has received an application for three new Restaurant Liquor Licences from The GPT Group Pty Ltd. Response to this application is provided in Attachment A to this report. Applicant Description of Application The GPT Group Pty Ltd Application for three new Restaurant Liquor Licences. Casuarina Shopping Square, 247 Trower Road, Darwin The management company for the Entertainment and Leisure Precinct Development of Casuarina Square seeks three Restaurant Liquor Licences for premises to be leased to national restaurant retailers. The concept of the premises will be that of restaurants with dining and alfresco facilities where liquor may be sold for consumption on the premises ancillary to a meal. The restaurants will offer lunch and dinner options. Proposed conditions sought are: The business to be conducted on the premises will be that of restaurants with alfresco dining. Sale of liquor for consumption on or at the licensed premises will be ancillary to a meal. Trading hours for the sale and consumption of liquor on or at the premises will be from 11:00 hours to 23:59 hours, seven days a week. No Council owned or controlled land is affected by the proposal. The conditions require that liquor is sold ancillary to a meal and that takeaway liquor is not available. The premises are located within a controlled entertainment and leisure precinct at Casuarina Shopping Centre, which will be a supervised and family-friendly location. Council Officers cannot 109 110 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: Applicant 4 16C0010 MG:kl COUNCIL RESPONSES TO LIQUOR LICENCE APPLICATIONS FEBRUARY 2016 Description of Application identify any reason that would be grounds for objection under section 47F(2) of the Liquor Act. Liquor Licence Applications that City of Darwin Officers identify reasons that would be grounds for objection under Section 47F(2) of the Liquor Act. Council has received applications for new Restaurant Liquor Licences from Retail Fast Food Pty Ltd and Catalyst Café & Grill. A response to these applications is provided in Attachment B and Attachment C to this report. Applicant Description of Application Retail Fast Food Pty Ltd “Mad Mex Casuarina Square” Application for a new Restaurant Liquor Licence. Shop GD 361, Casuarina Shopping Centre, 247 Trower Road, Darwin The concept of the premises will be that of a restaurant with dining and alfresco facilities where liquor may be sold for consumption on the premises without a meal. The restaurant will offer all-day dining with breakfast, lunch and dinner menus. Retail Fast Food Pty Ltd has applied for a Restaurant Liquor Licence for the premises to be known as “Mad Mex Casuarina Square”. The proposed conditions sought are: The business proposed to be conducted on the premises will be that of a restaurant with alfresco dining. The premises shall at all times have the predominant appearance of and shall trade principally as a restaurant where persons may consume liquor without the requirement of consuming a meal. The consumption of liquor without a meal shall not be advertised or promoted. Trading hours for the sale and consumption of liquor on or at the premises will be from 11:00 hours until 23:59 hours, seven days a week. No Council owned or controlled land is affected by the proposal. 110 111 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: Applicant 5 16C0010 MG:kl COUNCIL RESPONSES TO LIQUOR LICENCE APPLICATIONS FEBRUARY 2016 Description of Application The premises are located within a controlled entertainment and leisure precinct at Casuarina Shopping Centre, which the Developers have advised will be a safe, supervised and familyfriendly location. The Developers of this area have also applied for Restaurant Liquor Licences within the entertainment and leisure precinct; however those applications are conditional that liquor is sold ancillary to a meal. Council Officers sought clarification from Gambling and Licensing Services, Department of Business regarding the manner in which liquor may be sold at Mad Mex. Alcoholic beverages will only be served to the table once the customer is seated. There will be no bar service or takeaway sales. Alcoholic beverages will only be sold in open containers. A meal is not required. While these measures are aimed to ensure liquor is sold and consumed in a responsible manner, the conditions for this new licence may adversely affect the amenity of the neighbourhood or the public safety of the community. To provide a safe and well managed environment for all patrons within the Casuarina Shopping Centre Entertainment and Leisure Precinct, alcohol sales in restaurants should be ancillary to a meal. This is a family destination that includes a lively “kids’ play area”; conditions that allow businesses to trade “predominantly” as a restaurant while allowing table service alcoholic beverages without a meal are not conducive to this environment. Given that Council has committed significant resources to undertake the Darwin Safer City Program to address the adverse impacts of alcohol and establish strategies that ensure the amenity and safety of the community, Council should object to this application. 111 112 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 6 16C0010 MG:kl COUNCIL RESPONSES TO LIQUOR LICENCE APPLICATIONS FEBRUARY 2016 Applicant Description of Application Catalyst Café & Grill Application for a new Restaurant Liquor Licence. 5/6 Finniss Street, Darwin Mr Anthony Mischefski as sole trader has applied for a Restaurant Liquor Licence for the premises to be known as “Catalyst Café & Grill”.

Entertainment will only be by pre-recorded background music. No Council owned or controlled land is affected by the proposal. The proposed conditions for the sale of liquor are not conducive to the nature of the business, that being a restaurant/café. Alcohol should be ancillary to a meal and the licence hours should be commensurate with the proposed business closing hours nominated by the applicant, 11:30am 2:30pm Monday to Thursday, and 11:30am - 11:00pm Friday and Saturday. The ability for patrons to consume alcohol without the requirement of a meal, combined with a 2:00am liquor licence may adversely affect the amenity of the neighbourhood and or the health, education, public safety or social conditions in the community. 112 113 PAGE: REPORT NUMBER: SUBJECT: 7 16C0010 MG:kl COUNCIL RESPONSES TO LIQUOR LICENCE APPLICATIONS FEBRUARY 2016 CONSULTATION PROCESS In preparing this report, the following City of Darwin officers were consulted: Manager Community Development In preparing this report, the following External Parties were consulted: Senior Compliance Officer - Investigations, Gambling and Licensing Services, Department of Business POLICY IMPLICATIONS Relevant Council policies, if applicable, are noted in individual letter responses.

Council objects to the proposed conditions for the sale of liquor for the application. These conditions are not conducive to the nature of the business, that being a restaurant/café. Alcohol should be ancillary to a meal and the licence hours should be commensurate with the proposed business closing hours nominated by the applicant. The applicant has indicated the business would cease operations at 2:30pm Monday to Thursday, and 11:00pm Friday and Saturday. Council can see no reason in the application to justify that licence hours should extend past the proposed operating hours. The ability for patrons to consume alcohol without the requirement of a meal, combined with a 2:00am liquor licence may adversely affect the amenity of the neighbourhood and or the health, education, public safety or social conditions in the community, therefore Council objects to this application.
