DIVISIONAL REPORTS 7.1 Technical Services 7.1.1 Proposed Removal of Street Tree Location: Applicant: Officer: 6 OCTOBER 2015 6 Rodda Street, Morley Ms N E and Mr J P Tutt Director of Technical Services EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Application: For Council to consider the requested removal of the westernmost street tree located on the verge of 6 Rodda Street, Morley. Key Issues: • • The requested removal of the street tree is to allow construction of a crossover and driveway associated with the redevelopment of the site. The tree is in good health and good structural condition. BACKGROUND The City has received a request from the property owners to remove the verge tree located at 6 Rodda Street, Morley as part of a proposal to redevelop the property. At this stage, there will only be one dwelling on the block of which the building envelope will be at the front of the property providing the applicants the option to subdivide at a future point, however, for this to occur, the applicants would prefer a new crossover on the western side of the block (Attachment 1). Page 7 TECHNICAL SERVICES AND FINANCE & PERSONNEL COMMITTEE AGENDA 6 OCTOBER 2015 Following receipt of the applicants' request, City officers investigated and suggested an alternate crossover design (Attachment 2). This design was referred to the applicants, however, they advised as follows and still prefer removal of the tree: "We are not opposed to designing the driveway on a curve, as recommended by Mr Pearson on the attached plan, however, we are still greatly concerned about the impact of the tree. The root system of this tree is already above ground and growing towards the house. We do believe that this is going to cause future problems with the driveway - curved or not. We have debated with our builders, Dale Alcock, moving the whole house a half meter towards the right of the property, thus reducing the curve of the driveway, but still think there will be issues with this particular verge tree. By moving the house over we may also be starting new issues; those being with the planned levels of the house and the neighbouring property. We believe that this will also then make access to the rear of the block not in regulation with the Council should we wish to develop, (at a much later stage) as the distance from the garage to the fence line would only be 3m. As such, we would like to pursue asking for permission from the Council to have this particular tree removed. We've attached two photos, the first shows the verge of our property and the original driveway, taken from the left hand side of the property. The second photo shows the established root system of the tree, taken from the front of the property." Accordingly, City officers appointed a consulting arborist to assess the structural integrity, the likely impact the location of the crossover may have upon the two trees located on the subject verge and provide options to retain both trees should the development proceed. Page 8 TECHNICAL SERVICES AND FINANCE & PERSONNEL COMMITTEE AGENDA 6 OCTOBER 2015 Based on the original letter from the applicants, the arborist assumed the easternmost tree was the tree in question, and although this tree (easternmost) is the focus of the report, both trees were assessed. The arborist assessed the trees based upon the: • • • • existing health and structural condition of the tree; characteristics of species; proximity of the development to the tree; and aesthetic quality and amenity value that both trees provide to the surrounding streetscape CONSULTATION City officers undertook public consultation of residents and landowners 50m in both directions from 6 Rodda Street, Morley to establish views regarding the potential removal of the subject tree. The City received four replies of which two advocated for tree retention and one felt that it wasn't their decision to make, after all, it is Council land and it's the 'Garden City'. One was happy for the removal of the westernmost tree, however, strongly objected to any proposal which would result in the removal of the easternmost tree. ANALYSIS The westernmost tree is identified as a semi‐mature Lophostemon confertus (Queensland Box) with a clinometer height of 6.2m with a canopy spread of 6.0m north/south and 6.0m east/west and a trunk diameter of 31cm taken 1.4 metres above ground level. "7.2. A development proposal providing access aligned to the western boundary (as currently exists) will allow the retention of both verge trees as the crossover may be located outside an estimated tree protection zone (TPZ) of 4.0m for this tree and therefore root damage is likely to be limited. 7.3. The construction of a wider crossover on the western side may also allow the retention of the westernmost tree without significant damage provided works remain 2.5m – 3.0m from the trunk and appropriate measures such as arborist supervision and the exclusion of further works and associated construction activities within the calculated TPZ are put in place prior to the commencement of and during works." It should be noted that the alternate design proposed in Attachment 2 does not fully meet the arborist's recommended clearance of 2.5m - 3.0m for the tree trunk and is closer to approximately 1.5m from the trunk. OPTIONS The following options are available to Council: OPTION 1. 2. Approve the application for removal of the tree at the applicant's cost Do not approve removal of the tree and instruct the applicants to redesign ESTIMATED COST ($) BENEFIT RISK Nil • Meets the applicants' expectations. Nil • Retention of canopy and value to the streetscape • Loss of canopy cover and aesthetic value to the streetscape. • Potential future damage to property/crossover. Page 9 TECHNICAL SERVICES AND FINANCE & PERSONNEL COMMITTEE AGENDA 6 OCTOBER 2015 CONCLUSION Option 2 is recommended as the applicants can redesign their dwelling in such a manner as to retain the current crossover for both the new dwelling and any future dwellings or provide a new crossover which still allows the retention of the westernmost tree. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS The following financial implications are applicable: 2015/16 BUDGET ALLOCATION 2015/16 BUDGET RECONSIDERATION PROPOSED 2016/17 BUDGET ALLOCATION ONGOING COSTS (e.g. MAINTENANCE) LIFE OF PROJECT'LIFE EXPECTANCY OF ASSET Nil Nil Nil Nil Nil STRATEGIC LINK From the City of Bayswater's Strategic Community Plan 2013-23, select one implication which best details your report.

Key Issues: • • The applicant is requesting the removal of the existing street tree and replacing it with an Olive or Frangipani tree (relocated from within the applicant's property). An independent Arborist report advises that the existing tree represents low risk and is in fair health, however, has recommended the future removal and replacement with a species that would not require ongoing periodic pruning. BACKGROUND The City has received a request from the property owners to remove the verge tree located at 66 Bunya Street, Noranda and replace it with an Olive or Frangipani tree, relocated from within the applicant's property, as the subject tree is not from Council's approved species list. Following receipt of the applicant's request, City officers appointed a consulting arborist to assess the structural integrity of the subject tree. The arborist assessed the tree based upon the: • existing health and structural condition of the tree; • characteristics of species; • proximity of low and high voltage power lines; • future growth and development of the tree; and • aesthetic quality and amenity value that the tree provides the surrounding streetscape. Page 13 TECHNICAL SERVICES AND FINANCE & PERSONNEL COMMITTEE AGENDA 6 OCTOBER 2015 CONSULTATION City officers undertook public consultation of residents and landowners 50m in both directions from 66 Bunya Street, Noranda to establish views regarding the potential removal of the subject tree. The City received no replies. ANALYSIS The subject tree is a mature specimen of Schefflera actinophylla commonly known as an Umbrella Tree with clinometer height of 5.7m with a canopy spread of 5.2m and combined trunk diameter of 40cm. It is unlikely that the City would have planted the subject tree at this location. The tree was found to be in fair health and poor structural condition displaying epicormic growth which forms the main canopy structure. The tree is developing towards the low voltage power lines and future pruning will leave unsightly tall stems. These stems will not regenerate sufficiently to form into a significant new canopy. The arborist has concluded: "This consultant is of the opinion that this specimen of Schefflera actinophylla currently represents low risk to the surrounding targets and is in fair health, however with the structure being epicormic growth developing towards the low and high voltage power lines this specimen will soon require power line pruning which will essentially top the tree leaving the remainder of the tree in very poor structure. Once the tree is topped its ability to regenerate into a satisfactory specimen is very low and it will appear an unsightly specimen." In accordance with the above, the arborist has recommended that this specimen be approved for future removal and replacement with a suitable species as confirmed by the City. A small growing species which can remain under power lines without ongoing periodical pruning is preferred. Page 14 TECHNICAL SERVICES AND FINANCE & PERSONNEL COMMITTEE AGENDA 6 OCTOBER 2015 Accordingly, the applicants' suggestion of an Olive tree is not recommended for this location as it will require ongoing maintenance pruning and fruit will cause slip hazards on the adjacent footpath. The alternative option of a Frangipani is also not recommended either as it is classed as a shrub and not on the City's preferred verge tree species list. OPTIONS The following options are available to Council: OPTION 1. 2. 3. 4. Accede to the applicants' request to remove and replace the tree with an Olive or Frangipani tree at the applicants' expense. Accede to the applicants' request to remove the subject tree, however, replace with a suitable species to the satisfaction of the City at the applicants' expense Accede to the applicants' request to remove the subject tree, however, replace it by the City at the City's expense. Not accede to the applicants' request to remove the subject tree. ESTIMATED COST ($) BENEFIT RISK Nil • Improved streetscape and canopy cover • Slip hazard from the Olive tree during fruit drop. Nil • Improved streetscape and canopy cover • Applicant unsatisfied with option. $1,000 • Improved streetscape and canopy cover • Applicant unsatisfied with option. • Retention of existing tree. • Limited quality of tree following eventual pruning. • Applicant unsatisfied with option. Nil CONCLUSION Option 2 is recommended as this will improve Bunya Street streetscape and increase the City's canopy cover. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS Not applicable. STRATEGIC LINK In accordance with the City of Bayswater's Strategic Community Plan 2013-23, the following applies: "Theme: Aspiration: Outcome B1: Our Built Environment We have a well-connected mix of business, residential and community areas, which are high quality and support our thriving community. Streetscapes which allow for community interaction in an urban environment." COUNCIL POLICY AND LEGISLATIVE IMPLICATIONS The process stated above does not conflict with the City's Policy, Guidelines for the Management of Street Trees in the City of Bayswater. Page 15 TECHNICAL SERVICES AND FINANCE & PERSONNEL COMMITTEE AGENDA 6 OCTOBER 2015 VOTING REQUIREMENTS Simple Majority Required. ATTACHMENTS Not applicable. OFFICER'S RECOMMENDATION That the applicants be advised that Council approves the removal of the Schefflera actinophylla, Umbrella Tree located on the verge at 66 Bunya Street, Noranda subject to the following: a. The removal of the street tree is at the cost of the applicants to the satisfaction of the City of Bayswater. b. Prior to the removal of the tree, the applicants are to pay the City the amount of $500 to cover the cost of a replacement tree from Council's approved species list. c. The applicants are responsible for engaging a qualified contractor, the cost of removing the tree and any claims that may arise from the removal of the tree. Moved: Seconded: Page 16 TECHNICAL SERVICES AND FINANCE & PERSONNEL COMMITTEE AGENDA 7.1.3 6 OCTOBER 2015 Requested Tree Pruning Affecting ESLS Applicant: Officer: Main Roads WA Director of Technical Services EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Application: For Council to consider a request from Main Roads WA (MRWA) for approval to prune trees which may be affecting Electronic Speed Limit Signs (ESLS). Key Issues: • The applicant is requesting permission to prune vegetation from City tree assets which may be affecting the effectiveness of ESLS. • MRWA is installing ESLS at all speed reduced school zones in WA. BACKGROUND MRWA is installing up to 5,000 ESLS by 2017 at all speed reduced school zones in Western Australia. Each of these signs are powered by a battery which is recharged from a solar panel positioned at the top of the sign. MRWA have found that some of the solar signs do not adequately recharge their batteries if shaded by nearby trees. Accordingly, MRWA have taken care to try and install the ESLS where they will not be affected by shade from trees, however, some need to be located where potential shading from the City's trees cannot be avoided. MRWA recognises the impost on the City to keep ESLS clear of excessive shade and therefore, has offered to accept responsibility to clear vegetation which shades ESLS solar panels. CONSULTATION No consultation has occurred with the public or other agencies on this matter. ANALYSIS There are 31 educational facilities within the City of Bayswater but it is not yet known exactly how many trees or school zones will actually be affected. Notwithstanding this, it is possible that the ongoing tree clearance maintenance could add a significant unfunded workload to the City's tree crews, should the City accept responsibility to keep ESLS solar panels clear from shading vegetation. Page 17 TECHNICAL SERVICES AND FINANCE & PERSONNEL COMMITTEE AGENDA 6 OCTOBER 2015 MRWA have offered to resource and pay for the work through a contract arrangement. Should Council consider allowing MRWA to undertake the works, it should e conditional on: • • • Trees being pruned by a Practicing Arborist; All pruning works complying with AS 4373-2007 - Pruning of Amenity Trees; and All works carried out being MRWA's responsibility. These conditions will help to ensure that tree pruning is undertaken in a responsible manner with due regard to the health and condition of the trees. OPTIONS The following options are available to Council: OPTION 1. 2. Accede to the applicants' request to prune trees affecting ESLS solar panels at the applicants' expense and responsibility. Do not accede to the applicants' request to prune trees affecting ESLS solar panels ESTIMATED COST ($) BENEFIT RISK Nil • City tree crews are able to attend to their preventative maintenance schedules. • Minimal, should MRWA comply with the City's conditions. Up to $230 per individual tree service • Greater control over any pruning undertaken. • Increased times to complete preventative maintenance schedules. CONCLUSION Option 1 is recommended as this will allow MRWA to program works at their expense, responsibility and timing subject to the works being undertaken in a responsible manner in accordance with the conditions detailed above. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS Nil STRATEGIC LINK In accordance with the City of Bayswater's Strategic Community Plan 2013-23, the following applies: Theme: Aspiration: Outcome B1: Our Built Environment We have a well-connected mix of business, residential and community areas, which are high quality and support our thriving community.

VOTING REQUIREMENTS Simple Majority Required. ATTACHMENTS Not applicable. Page 18 TECHNICAL SERVICES AND FINANCE & PERSONNEL COMMITTEE AGENDA 6 OCTOBER 2015 OFFICER'S RECOMMENDATION That Council advises Main Roads WA (MRWA) that the Council highly values its tree stocks and the numerous values that are provided by a healthy urban forest and with this in mind, is prepared to approve MRWA to undertake the responsible pruning of trees which shade solar panels servicing Electronic Speed Limit Signs (ESLS) within the City of Bayswater subject to the following conditions: a. Trees being pruned by a Practicing Arborist; b. All pruning works comply with AS 4373-2007 - Pruning of Amenity Trees; and c. All works carried out being MRWA's responsibility.

BACKGROUND Autism West Support Inc. is running the Youth Engaging Successfully (YES) Group which is a social group for adolescents with high-functioning ASD. YES Group provides participants aged between 13 and 18 years with opportunities to engage in social and recreational activities that allow them to pursue common interests with other like-minded teenagers. A major focus of this group is on participants spending their weekly catch-ups engaging in shared interactions and activities that are fun, friendly, relaxed and inclusive. The YES Group North is meeting in Term 4 (October, November and December) at Infant Jesus Church, Morley. The cost of participation is $270 for nine weeks. The applicant advises that the group is sustainable at 13 enrolments, and at this point they only have eight, so have postponed the group's commencement to Term 4 to try to increase numbers. In addition to financial assistance, the applicant would appreciate any marketing assistance. Autism West Support Inc. is a not-for-profit incorporated association with no government funding and is run predominately by volunteers. Whilst the application is for $1,434.98 (GST inclusive), the group has indicated that "support big or small would help the community in the City of Bayswater affected by ASD". CONSULTATION Not applicable. ANALYSIS Community programs such as the YES Group North build community harmony and provide a sense of belonging for individuals. The program meets the following eligibility criteria for a Community Donation as the initiative: • • • • • provides a direct benefit to the city community by delivering community or cultural services, activities or resources; meets the needs of the community in general or specific target groups such as children; young people; and culturally and linguistically-diverse groups; facilitates open public access to the program/event; complements existing community and cultural services, programs and resources provided by the City of Bayswater, government and non-government agencies; and is for a community group which is an incorporated not-for-profit organisation.

Key Issues: • Section 6.26 (2)(g) of the Local Government Act 1995 (the Act) states "land used exclusively for charitable purposes" is not rateable. • The Act does not define these terms and so it is for Council to interpret and apply legislation having regard to a number of considerations. • The property at 5 Tara Street, Morley is used for the provision of playgroup activities. • Casa Mia Montessori Playgroup is a structured playgroup based on Montessori philosophy and learning through play. BACKGROUND Council has received an application from Casa Mia Montessori Playgroup for an exemption from rates under section 6.26(2)(g) of the Act for the property at 5 Tara Street, Morley. This property is leased by the applicant and has been since 1 November 2013; this application is the first for this address. The property located at 5 Tara Street, Morley is classified as an Educational Premise and is used as the Playgroup's activity centre. In Casa Mia Montessori Playgroup's application for a rates exemption, it has indicated that it occupies the whole building and that there are commercial activities conducted at the property including regular playgroup sessions which are conducted at a standard fee. Casa Mia Montessori Playgroup is a structured playgroup based on Montessori philosophy and learning through play. As per the Lease Agreement between the City of Bayswater and Casa Mia Montessori Playgroup, effective 1 November 2013, all outgoing costs are the responsibility of the tenant. This lease ends 31 October 2015. Distinct from this application, Council resolved at its 25 August 2015 Ordinary Meeting to work with Casa Mia Montessori Playgroup to find alternative premises for the period 1 November 2015 to 1 April 2016 (or vacation of the building at 2 Hudson Street). Since this meeting, agreement has been reached with the City of Bayswater Child Care Centre Association (Inc.) to use, in the interim period, premises located at Roberts Street, Bayswater. In addition to this, Council resolved to offer Casa Mia Montessori Playgroup a 5-year User Agreement from April 2016 for the property at 2 Hudson Street, Bayswater with the tenant to pay rent and all outgoings. To assist Casa Mia Montessori Playgroup with moving/storage costs, Council, at its Ordinary Meeting of 25 August 2015, approved a donation of $1,500. Casa Mia Montessori Playgroup is not a registered charity but is a not-for-profit incorporated association. Page 88 TECHNICAL SERVICES AND FINANCE & PERSONNEL COMMITTEE AGENDA 6 OCTOBER 2015 CONSULTATION On 10 September 2015 it was confirmed verbally by both the Cities of Swan and Stirling that they do not grant rates exemptions to playgroups for properties located within their boundaries. ANALYSIS This application can be considered under section 6.26(2)(g) of the Act, which states "land used exclusively for charitable purposes" is not rateable. The Act does not define the terms "charitable purposes" or "exclusively" so it is for Council to interpret and apply the legislation having regard to applicable case law and any other legal provisions. To be a charitable purpose, within the scope of the definition in the Local Government Act 1995, the purpose must either fall within the list of purposes detailed in the Charitable Uses Act of 1601 or within one of the following four categories of charitable purposes as set out under Pemsel's rule: (a) relief of poverty; (b) advancement of education; (c) advancement of religion; and (d) other purposes beneficial to the community not falling under any of the preceding categories. In addition to the above case law, the Charities Act 2013, effective 1 January 2014, defines charity as: • an entity that is not-for-profit; and • the purpose of that entity is for public benefit including: o advancing education; and o relieving the poverty, distress or disadvantage of individuals or families. On the basis of the current use of 5 Tara Street, Morley, it is recommended Council not approve a rates exemption under section 6.26(2)(g) of the Act. OPTIONS The following options are available to Council: OPTION 1. Not approve a rates exemption. 2. Approve rates exemption for the period 1 July 2015 to 31 October 2015. ESTIMATED COST ($) Nil.

Key Issues: • The Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.) has a self-supporting loan with a remaining balance of $50,190.81 (including the final payment due 9 November 2015 of $10,037.93); the maturity date of this loan is 9 November 2015. • Self-supporting Loan 218 is between the City of Bayswater and WA Treasury Corporation. • The Club is essentially requesting Council to write off the amount remaining: this follows a similar request from Bedford Bowling Club (Inc.) and other funding applications from community groups following adoption of the 2015-16 budget. BACKGROUND In August 2005 Council considered an application from the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.) for a loan facility to install two new synthetic bowling surfaces and resolved to, inter alia, approve the provision of a self-supporting loan of $300,000. The fixed interest loan (5.93%) was subsequently arranged and funded in November 2005 for a 10-year term (Loan 218). To secure the loan and in accordance with section 6.21(2) of the Local Government Act 1995 and the Western Australian Treasury Corporation Act 1986 the City executed a debenture agreeing to the defined repayment schedule and borrowing terms. Like all self-supporting loans, the City pays each instalment to WA Treasury as it falls due, and recovers this amount by sending an account to the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.). In February 2012 a letter was received from the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.) requesting that: the City grants an immediate suspension of Loan Repayment. Council subsequently resolved to allow: deferment by one quarter to 9 May 2012 of Loan 218 ($10,038.22); and also for officers from the City of Bayswater to investigate with the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.) the possibility of rationalisation of its operation including the possibility of amalgamation with other clubs. No agreement could be reached with respect to amalgamation with other clubs. This deferred quarter payment of $10,038.22 remains outstanding. Page 94 TECHNICAL SERVICES AND FINANCE & PERSONNEL COMMITTEE AGENDA 6 OCTOBER 2015 Subsequent to the above, Council considered, at a Special Meeting on 14 May 2013, the strategic direction for the provision of bowling and tennis club facilities within the City of Bayswater. This discussion was the culmination of a number of requests for financial assistance during development of the 2012-13 budget, namely for: • capital funding for new club facilities and expansion (bowling and tennis club); • capital funding for surface repair and replacement (bowling club); • assistance with operating costs - deferred loan repayments (Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club [Inc.]); and • support for some maintenance costs. These requests were not progressed through to the 2012-13 budget pending further discussion with the clubs, liaison with Bowls WA and the Department of Sport and Recreation (DSR) to enable Council to establish a strategic position on the future of these facilities in the City. More recently Council considered a similar request from the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club for financial assistance in February 2015; Council subsequently resolved the following: "That Council: 1. Defers the 2014/15 payment of $40,152.88 on Self-supporting Loan 218 with the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club noting the 2012 amount outstanding of $10,038.22. 2. Requests detailed financial statements from the Club and Officers from the City of Bayswater work with the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club to assist articulate a plan for the future. 3. Consider the outcome of these discussions at a future meeting." Through the formal community club request program for the 2015-16 budget, the City received requests from 29 community clubs for 62 separate projects totalling $1,740,098 for consideration in the budget process. Of the requests, Council approved the allocation of $50,000 for capital works for three sporting clubs, with clubs contributing 50% ie. $25,000. To be eligible under this program, the request must, inter alia, be for capital works that meet one of the following classifications: critical infrastructure; desired upgrade or cosmetic improvement. One of the unsuccessful applications under the community club requests program was from the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.) for: • new lawnmower for grass green $7,300 • ice machine $3,385 • glass-washer $2,695 • 3 kilowatt cool room unit contingency fund • replacement of synthetic bowling green - B green $30,000 $200,000 Distinct from the subject application from the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.) Council recently considered a request from Bedford Bowling Club (Inc.) to write-off its selfsupporting loan. Unlike the self-supporting loan of Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.), the self-supporting loan of Bedford Bowling Club (Inc.) was not a WA Treasury facility but a facility structured and financed by the City of Bayswater to assist the Club's operations. Page 95 TECHNICAL SERVICES AND FINANCE & PERSONNEL COMMITTEE AGENDA 6 OCTOBER 2015 Council resolved to provide $16,000 (to offset Loan 225) with the condition that the Club settled the balance of the loan by 31 October 2015 ($23,173.78). CONSULTATION Not applicable. ANALYSIS Attached are the Club's financial statements for the period ended 31 May 2015 (Attachment 3). These verify the positive changes underway at the Club to boost membership and use; even so the enduring challenge for the Club is how to convert social members (currently 480) to active competition members (currently 68) when the synthetic greens are in need of major upgrade. Given this and assuming all things remain equal over the next few years, the Club may require financial assistance from the City to finance the future upgrade of the two synthetic greens. Under Council's Debt-Free Program (Policy FS-P04) the City will only borrow funds where it is for a self-supporting loan or is self-funding. Alternatively, if the only other option available to the Club is for Council to make a significant investment to the upgrade of the synthetic greens, this will have broader implications for other community clubs and the City's financial sustainability. In summary, to accede to this request from the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.) a policy change would be required which may inadvertently affect the ability of the Club to enter into any future self-supporting loan arrangements with the City of Bayswater, and have broader implications for other sporting clubs and community groups. OPTIONS The following options are available to Council: OPTION 1. 2. 3. Not accede to the request of the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.) to write-off the balance of Self-supporting Loan 218. Accede to the request of the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.) to write-off Selfsupporting Loan 218. Negotiate a longer repayment term on Loan 218 with Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.) ESTIMATED COST ($) BENEFIT RISK $0 Manages broader implications for other community groups which have self-supporting loans with the City. The plans of the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.) for the future may need to be revised. $50,190.81 The City has 5 other self-supporting loans with community groups; if this request is approved it may have broader implications for these and Council's position on future loan requests for community groups. The Club may be able to apply cash-flow benefits to projects. No allocation has been made in the 2015-16 Budget to fund the repayment of Selfsupporting Loan 218 or provide financial assistance to the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.). Page 96 The City has budgeted to recover the final payment made to Treasury. Any change to this will need to be recognised in the midyear budget review. TECHNICAL SERVICES AND FINANCE & PERSONNEL COMMITTEE AGENDA 4. Approve a small donation to the Club on similar terms as those offered to Bedford Bowling Club (Inc.) (Item 12.2.10 OCM 22.09.2015). The Club's facilities may benefit from a small financial contribution by the City towards Selfsupporting Loan 218. 6 OCTOBER 2015 No allocation has been made in the 2015-16 Budget to fund the repayment of Selfsupporting Loan 218 or provide financial assistance to the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.). The Club does not have the financial capacity to make the required contribution to the City. CONCLUSION Option 1 is recommended having regard to Council's earlier decision on this matter and potential flow-on implications for other community groups. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS No allocation has been made in the 2015-16 budget to fund the repayment of Self-supporting Loan 218 or provide any additional financial assistance to the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.). The Budget assumes the Club will fully meet its repayment obligations and reimburse the City's outgoing payments to Treasury for 2015-16. Similarly no provision has been made in the Long-Term Financial Plan to provide additional financial assistance to the Bayswater Bowling and Recreation Club (Inc.). STRATEGIC LINK In accordance with the City of Bayswater's Strategic Community Plan 2013-23, the following applies: Theme: Our Community Aspiration: A resilient community with a strong sense of purpose that is able to celebrate its diversity in numerous ways.

Key Issues: The Local Government Act 1995, Local Government (Functions and General) Regulations 1996, in addition to Council's Procurement Policy FS-P19 (amended) (Attachment 1), applies to all purchasing undertaken by the City. The purpose of this report is to provide a broad overview of changes to the Local Government (Functions and General) Regulations 1996 including changes to the tender threshold from $100,000 to $150,000. These amendments require changes to be made to Procurement Policy FS-P19 (amended) and delegations. BACKGROUND The central legislation is the Local Government Act 1995, and there are a number of subsidiary regulations, including the Local Government (Functions and General) Regulations 1996. These regulations cover the administration of matters such as local laws, tendering, thoroughfares and the disposition of land. The regulations are amended from time to time, and the latest amendments were gazetted on 18 September 2015 for effect from 1 October 2015. The amendments were made as a result of recommendations made by the Local Government Steering Committee and the Corruption and Crime Commission (CCC) with the objective to improve the purchasing practices of local government. CONSULTATION The latest changes are the culmination of negotiation and advocacy between the Department of Local Government and Communities and the WA Local Government Association on behalf of the sector over the past couple of years to provide more clarity on certain aspects of the tendering requirements. ANALYSIS A summary of the key changes are: • The tender threshold has increased from $100,000 to $150,000. This is a natural progression which reflects cost changes generally, and is consistent with the previouslyincreased limit from $50,000 to $100,000 in 2007. • Clarity around circumstances where tenders do not need to be publicly invited and include when goods or services are provided through a registered Australian Disability Enterprise. • Strengthening of anti-avoidance provisions so that if a local government reasonably believes that the purchase of a good or service from one supplier will exceed the tender threshold of $150,000 it should publicly invite tenders. While no timeframe for the tender threshold has been included in the regulations, the Department of Local Government and Communities suggests as best practice if the tender threshold is reached within three years, then a public tender is invited for that good or service. Page 99 TECHNICAL SERVICES AND FINANCE & PERSONNEL COMMITTEE AGENDA 6 OCTOBER 2015 • Provision for pre-qualified contractors (which were not previously dealt with in the regulations), subject to certain conditions being met to ensure that there is appropriate transparency of process. In establishing a panel, persons are to be publicly invited to apply. • In addition to amendments around the tender provisions, other changes include: increasing the prescribed value of abandoned vehicle wrecks under regulation 29A(a) to $500. Accordingly it is recommended these changes be duly reflected in Council's Procurement Policy FS-P19 and the 2015-16 Delegated Authority Register to facilitate organisational compliance. OPTIONS Not applicable - information only. CONCLUSION That Council notes the amendments to the Local Government (Functions and General) Regulations 1996 and reflects these changes in Council's Procurement Policy FS-P19 (Amended) and the 2015-16 Delegated Authority Register. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS Nil. STRATEGIC LINK In accordance with the City of Bayswater Strategic Community Plan 2013-23, the following applies: Theme: Leadership and Governance. Aspiration: We will provide responsible leadership and governance, and be recognised for operating with integrity and delivering quality services. Outcome L1: Accountable and good governance. A copy of the regulations can be viewed on the State Law Publisher website at www.slp.wa.gov.au. COUNCIL POLICY AND LEGISLATIVE IMPLICATIONS To comply with amendments to Local Government (Functions and General) Regulations 1996, Council's Procurement Policy FS-P19 (Amended) needs to be revised as per Attachment 1. Further changes also need to be made to the delegation authorisations, specifically Delegation FS-D05 : Calling of Tenders to reflect the authorisation of delegated officers to publicly invite tenders for the purchase of goods and services or seek expressions of interest for those over $150,000.
