9.1.1 Amendment
C189 - Corrections to the Whitehorse Planning Scheme - Adoption of Amendment
ATTACHMENT
SUMMARY
Whitehorse City
Council, as the planning authority, is responsible for regularly reviewing the
Whitehorse Planning Scheme. Minor errors and anomalies were identified up to
May 2016 in the Whitehorse Planning Scheme that required correction via a
planning scheme amendment.
Amendment C189
consists of 59 corrections which includes rezoning land that has been
incorrectly zoned, removing the Vegetation Protection Overlay from properties
where trees have been removed and minor amendments to maps, ordinance or incorporated
documents to correct errors or anomalies.
Council
exhibited Amendment C189 under Section 20(2) of the Planning and Environment
Act 1987 for one calendar month to all landowners of properties included in the
amendment, as well as to Prescribed Ministers. No submissions were received
during the exhibition period.
This report
recommends that Council adopt Amendment C189 and send it to the Minister for
Planning for approval under Section 20(2) of the
Planning and Environment Act 1987.
|
RECOMMENDATION
That Council, being the Planning Authority, having
exhibited the amendment and received no submissions:
1.
Adopt Amendment C189 as exhibited.
2. Submit
the adopted Amendment to the Minister for Planning for approval under the
Planning and Environment Act 1987 with the fee of $266.55.
|
background
The Whitehorse
Planning Scheme (the Scheme) was initially developed through preparation of the
new format Whitehorse Planning Scheme, which was approved on 5 August 1999.
Under Section 12 of the Planning and Environment Act 1987 (the Act), Council
must regularly review the provisions of the Scheme, which includes identifying
and correcting errors and anomalies.
The Strategic
Planning Unit keeps a record of errors and anomalies that have been identified
in the Scheme. The previous corrections amendment (C159) was approved on 21 May
2015. This Amendment (C189) proposes to make corrections that generally relate
to mapping anomalies, text errors, removing redundant controls or amending
overlay provisions to reflect their intent. The Amendment includes any corrections
identified up until May 2016. Any corrections identified after May 2016 will be
included in a future corrections amendment.
DISCUSSION
The Amendment is
administrative only and is not expected to have any adverse environmental,
social and economic implications. The changes under this Amendment will
generally reflect the intent of the planning scheme as adopted by Council.
The Amendment is
likely to result in reduced planning permit requirements by reflecting the
intended land use and development. In particular, several properties no longer
require the Vegetation Protection Overlay (VPO) as the tree/s have been
removed. The Amendment consists of 59 corrections, all of which can be grouped
under one of the following categories:
Rezone land
33 parcels of land
were identified where the zoning of the land is incorrect or dual or triple
zoning has been erroneously applied. This includes parkland reserves which are
currently included in a residential zone. To correctly reflect the current use
of the reserves, the Amendment rezones land owned by Council from a residential
zone to the Public Park and Recreation Zone (PPRZ) where the land is already
being used for that purpose.
Vegetation
Protection Overlays
The VPO is being
updated where the vegetation has been removed and consequential changes are
being made to Incorporated Document Number 10 (City of Whitehorse –
Statements of Tree Significance – 2005) and Number 11 (City of Whitehorse
– Statements of Tree Significance – 2006) to the Planning Scheme to
reflect these corrections. There are 22 properties where the VPO is being
deleted from land or references to particular trees are to be updated in the
Incorporated Documents.
Heritage Overlay
The chimney
located at 58-74 Station Street, Nunawading (former Daniel Robertson
Brickworks) is included in the Heritage Overlay (HO78). The heritage overlay on
the map for HO78 is in the incorrect location and therefore the HO map is being
amended to correctly reflect the location of the chimney.
Ordinances,
mapping and incorporated documents
There are minor
amendments to the ordinance that have been identified to correct errors,
including reference to the previous housing study in all schedules to the VPO.
The Amendment also corrects a minor formatting error in Schedule 4 to the
Neighbourhood Residential Zone. These changes do not change the intent of
controls or policy.
An additional
correction originally included in this Amendment involved updating all
references to the previous residential zones in the Student Accommodation
Policy at Clause 22.14. This correction was dealt with in Amendment C177, which
was approved in July 2016 and therefore is no longer required to be included in
this Amendment.
CONSULTATION
During the
preparation of the Amendment consultation was carried out with the Parks
Planning and Recreation Team and the Property and Rates Department as they had
interest in the sites included in the Amendment. Council’s arborist also
reviewed all the properties included in the amendment where trees had been
removed. Council officers and the arborist agreed with the changes included in
the Amendment.
It was determined
that a Section 20(2) Amendment made at the request of the Council to the
Minister for Planning would be a suitable approach to correct the minor
anomalies in this particular circumstance. The advisory note “A Protocol
for Fast Tracking Amendments” notes that amendments can be considered for
Ministerial exemption from notice under Section 20(2) of the Act if they are a
correction to the planning scheme and/or a plain English translation of an
existing provision where the effect of the provision is unchanged.
The Amendment was
requested under Section 20(2) of the Act, which enables amendments to be exempt
from the extensive notice requirements set out under sections 17, 18 and 19 of
the Act and instead enables amendments to be undertaken with limited
exhibition. The notice requirements typically include notification to
surrounding properties and public authorities.
Ministerial
exemption from the normal notice requirements was granted on 21 September 2016.
Council was also authorised to form its own view as to whether any parties
would be affected by the Amendment and should be notified. Council notified all
landowners with properties included in the Amendment as well as prescribed
ministers and relevant council departments. The Amendment was exhibited from
Monday 31 October 2016 until Friday 2 December 2016 and
no submissions were received.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
As per the new Planning
and Environment (Fees) Regulations 2016 the fee applying for approval of
amendments is $453.10. However for the first 12 months, until 13 October 2017,
the fee will be reduced by 50%, therefore Council is required to pay $266.55
when lodging the Amendment with the Minister for Planning for approval. This
fee can be accommodated in the 2016/2017 budget. The
Amendment is likely to reduce future administrative costs by reducing the
number of permits required due to the correct zoning being applied.
POLICY IMPLICATIONS
The Amendment
accords with the Municipal Strategic Statement at Clause 21.09 Monitoring and
Review. The Clause notes that Council will conduct regular reviews of the
planning scheme. The current list of corrections has resulted from
Council’s regular review of the planning scheme and the Amendment will
improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the scheme.
In addition to the
policy implications for the Planning Scheme, the amendment would address the
Council Plan 2015-2019, by:
· Maintaining and enhancing the built environment to
ensure a liveable and sustainable city.
The amendment would also address the Council
Vision 2013-2023 by:
· Protecting the natural and built heritage
environments through appropriate legislative frameworks.
CONCLUSION
Under Section 12 of
the Planning and Environment Act 1987, Council must regularly review the
provisions of the Scheme. The Strategic Planning Unit regularly reviews the
Scheme and keeps a record of errors and anomalies that have been identified.
Fifty-nine errors and anomalies were identified since
the previous corrections amendment in May 2015. The corrections largely
comprise removal of a VPO where a tree has been removed or amending zoning
anomalies where properties are included in two or three zones.
The Amendment supports the principles of the
State and Local Planning Policy Framework and does not affect its intentions.
The Amendment is required to correctly reflect land use and development of the
City and the outcome of the Amendment will be to improve the order, accuracy
and efficiency of the Scheme through the removal of anomalies and minor
identified errors.
It is not anticipated that the amendment will
increase the resource and administrative costs of Council. On the contrary, by
correcting mapping, schedule and provision anomalies in accordance with the
current and intended land use and development, the amendment is likely to
reduce general enquiries and planning permit requirements.
The Amendment was exhibited under Section
20(2) of the Planning and Environment Act 1987 from 31 October 2016
until 2 December 2016. No submissions were received during the exhibition
period. It is therefore recommended that Council adopt
Amendment C189 as exhibited and send it to the Minister for Planning for
approval.

9.1.2 Tender
Evaluation Report (Contract 20002) Station Street Mitcham Reconstruction
SUMMARY
To consider tenders received for the reconstruction of Station
Street, Mitcham and to recommend the acceptance of the tender received from The
Trustee for Evergreen Civil Unit Trust, trading as Evergreen Civil Pty Ltd, for
the amount of $1,535,445.44, including GST and to consider the overall project
expenditure.
|
RECOMMENDATION
That Council accept the tender and sign the formal
contract document for Contract 20002 Station Street Mitcham Reconstruction
received from The Trustee for Evergreen Civil Unit Trust (ABN 67 667 088
791), of Factory 11, 24 Brand Drive Thomastown VIC 3074 trading as Evergreen
Civil Pty Ltd, for the tendered amount of $1,535,445.44, including GST; as
part of the total expected project expenditure of $1,877,928 including GST
($1,707,207 excluding GST).
|
BACKGROUND
This contract is to undertake the reconstruction of Station
Street between Whitehorse Road and Colombo Street, Mitcham and includes works
to the Whitehorse Road signalised intersection and pedestrian crossing
connecting Station Street and Britannia Mall. The proposed works are part of
Council’s commitment to improving shopping centres throughout the
municipality to encourage local trade, economic activity and provide the
community with improved retail experiences.
The key objective is to revitalise the Shopping Centre by
improving the appearance, amenity and function for local traders, customers and
visitors to the area. The project is proposed in response to the deteriorating
condition of the road pavement and footpath areas in Mitcham, and changes to
the Centre generated by the recent rail crossing removal in Mitcham Road and
construction of the new Mitcham Railway Station.
The improvements to Mitcham are proposed to be staged in
priority order. The initial stages that have been recently completed include:
· Stage
1 – Footpath south side of Whitehorse Road to west of Mitcham Road beyond
Station Street.
· Stage
2 – Footpath north side of Whitehorse Road to west of Mitcham Road to
Edward Street.
The proposed works are Stage 3 of the streetscape
improvements and the key features include:
· Pedestrian
priority – to provide improved pedestrian access by removing the kerbs in
Station Street, widening the footpaths and modifying the signalised crossing
across Whitehorse Road to provide a more direct route for pedestrians.
· Feature
footpath paving – to provide a consistent paving treatment to unite the
many precincts within the Village and improve the safety of pedestrians.
· Customised
street furniture – to provide character and identity to the
Village.
· Increased
greening – to enhance the streetscape with attractive planting including
canopy trees and understory planting.
· Parking
changes – to provide 15 parking bays in Station Street (19 existing)
which would allow planting of large street trees between parking bays. It is
also proposed to remove 3 parking bays from the service road in front of
Britannia Mall to improve the safety for pedestrians crossing at this location.
An information session was held on Thursday 26 May 2016, with no objections
lodged to these proposed changes.
Station Street is a two-way street with traffic travelling
to and from Colombo Street and the new Mitcham train station, including the
public car park. There are a number of bus services that use Station Street and
consultation has occurred with the relevant bus companies and Public Transport
Victoria (PTV). The Whitehorse Road proposed signalised crossing upgrade works
have been reviewed and approved by VicRoads.
It is proposed to award a single contract for works to be
staged over the 2016/2017 and 2017/2018 financial years. Works are scheduled to
commence in March 2017 and be completed in September 2017. The works will be
staged and programmed to limit disruption to the Shopping Centre.
DISCUSSION
Tenders were advertised in The Age newspaper on Saturday 5
November 2016 and were closed on Wednesday 30 November 2016. Two tenders were
received.
The tenders were evaluated against the following criteria:
· The
Tender Offer;
· Tenderer’s
experience in the provision of similar services;
· Quality
of the tenderer’s work;
· Proposed
construction methodology;
· Availability
of Tenderer to complete the works; and
· Occupational
Health & Safety and Equal Opportunity (Pass/Fail).
The submissions were evaluated using a weighted averages
method. Equal Opportunity and Occupational Health & Safety were assessed on
a Pass/Fail basis.
The recommended tenderer, Evergreen Civil Pty Ltd has
extensive experience in these types of works. They have successfully
constructed a number of similar shopping centre streetscape and paving projects
for other Councils including Knox City Council, Brimbank City Council and
Banyule City Council. They have also recently successfully completed
Stages 1 and 2 of the Mitcham Shopping Centre streetscape improvements. In all
these projects they have successfully managed traders whilst working in a busy
activity centre and have developed innovative methods for managing the
construction site and maintaining pedestrian access to businesses. They are a
well-resourced company for this type of work and have an acceptable
Occupational Health and Safety policy.
The tender received from Evergreen Civil Pty Ltd is
considered to provide the best value for money for this Contract.
CONSULTATION
This project has been developed in consultation with the
Council departments of Engineering and Environmental Services, Business and
Economic Development, City Works and ParksWide. The preferred tenderer’s
business viability has been considered.
A consultation letter with concept plans for the Stage 3
works was sent on 18 May 2016 to a total of 1,146 property owners, tenants and
local traders in and around the shopping centre. There was also an information
session at the Civic Centre. A total of 8 responses were received. The majority
of the comments were positive and in support of the proposed concept design.
The remaining comments could be accommodated in the detailed design or were
beyond the scope of the current project.
The preferred tenderer’s business viability has been
considered.

|
BACKGROUND
This contract is for the provision
of concrete / asphalt paving and kerbing services for the City of Whitehorse to
undertake planned renewal and risk mitigation works in accordance with the
Council’s Asset Management Policy and its Road Management Plan obligations.
The Road Management Plan determines the level of service that Council is
required to deliver for the maintenance of the 1,717 kilometres of footpath, 1,183 kilometres of kerb and
channel and 611 kilometres of roads it is
responsible for.
In order to maximise cost
effectiveness and provide flexibility of service, it is necessary to establish
and maintain a panel of contractors. It is common for this type of work
that contractors are required, at short notice, to address urgent issues and therefore
maintaining access to a panel of capable contractors is preferable.
DISCUSSION
On 13 February 2013, Council
awarded Contract 12020 for the Provision of Concrete / Asphalt Paving and
Kerbing Services to Civil Asset Management Services Pty Ltd, Parente Paving Pty
Ltd, Roma Bros Pty Ltd and Pavers Plus Pty Ltd, following a public tender
process. The original 4 year term of the Contract will expire on 13 February
2017. The Contract allows for a 1 year extension at Council’s discretion.
All contractors
have delivered an excellent standard of service throughout the contract period
and the performance of the Contractors has been closely monitored and measured
through regular onsite inspections and audits. All Contractors have met
contract requirements with regards to the promotion of service and the
appropriate high standard of representation of Council to the public.
All contractors
have agreed to accept Council’s offer to extend the Contract under the
current Contract terms and conditions, subject to Council approval. The
extension of this Contract will negate the need to conduct a new tender process
for these services for the next 12 month period.
CONSULTATION
The Council officers in the City
Works department involved in managing the contractors have been consulted with
regards to the extension of this Contract.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
The contract for
the provision of concrete, asphalt paving and kerbing services is based on an
agreed Schedule of Rates. The rates are subject to a CPI adjustment on each
anniversary of the contract.
The average
expenditure under this contract over the initial contract term was
approximately $2 million per annum. It is anticipated that the expenditure over
the next year will be of a similar magnitude.
The costs
incurred under this contract will be charged to the relevant Operational and
Capital budgets managed by both City Works and Engineering and Environmental
Services.

9.3.1 The
Whitehorse Manningham Regional Library Corporation Agreement
ATTACHMENT
SUMMARY
The purpose of this report is to recommend that Council
sign the Whitehorse Manningham Regional Library Corporation Agreement.
|
RECOMMENDATION
That Council sign the agreement and affix the Common Seal to the
document.
|
background
The Whitehorse Manningham Regional Library Corporation
(“the Regional Library”) was established in December 1995 pursuant
to the provisions of section 196 of the Local Government Act 1989
(“the Act”). A number of regional library corporations were
established during this period. The regional library agreements were based on a
model agreement prepared by the State Government.
The Agreement is the document which formally establishes the
Regional Library and contains the matters that are fundamental to the direction
and operation of the Regional Library. The Agreement is supported by the
Regional Library’s:
a) Annual Budget;
b) Library Plan;
c) Strategic Resource Plan; and
d) Policies.
The Board
at its meeting on 24 August 2016 considered a report in relation to a new
Library Agreement. The current Agreement required updating to reflect current
legislative requirements, remove outdated references and to reflect current
practice. (Refer Attachment 1)
As
required under the Local Government Act 1989 persuant to sections 197(1) and
section 223 a Public Notice inviting submissions was published in the Age and
on the Library website on 24 October 2016. No submissions were received.
DISCUSSION
At the meeting of the Library Board on 14 December 2016 the
Board resolved the following:
That the Board, acting in accordance with sections 196, 197
and 223 of the Local Government Act 1989 and having given public notice of its
intention to execute the proposed Agreement:
a) Notes that no submissions were
received;
b) Resolves to adopt the proposed
agreement;
c) Refers the proposed Agreement to
the two member councils for approval;
d) Refers the proposed Agreement to
the Minister for Local Government for approval by notice published in the
Government Gazette.
It is proposed that the Agreement be reviewed every four
years in line with the development of the Four Year Library Plan.
CONSULTATION
The draft Agreement was adopted by the Board and was placed
out for public consultation in October 2016, as required by section 223 and 196
(2) of the Act.
The draft Agreement was duly advertised and no submissions
were received.
The Agreement has been updated to reflect legislative
amendments to the Local Government Act 1989 which have occurred and changes in
practices and service delivery with the Library Corporation. The updated
Agreement will have no effect on the funding provisions for or the operation of
the Regional Library.
The process has concluded that the Agreement is fundamentally
sound and is similar to other regional library agreements. There is no change
to the intent of the Agreement. The changes required are to:
a)
Refer to the continuation rather than the formation of the Regional Library;
b)
Amend several
clauses to reflect legislative changes and changes in practices (eg: term of
membership of Board members and Board vacancies); and
c)
Remove
redundant clauses.
The Agreement continues to be a flexible document for the
member Councils; retaining the ability for the Councils to agree to changes,
such as additional services to be provided by the Regional Library, changes to
the Council contributions and changes to the parties, without the requirement
to seek approval of the Minister.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
The agreement is subject to Council’s annual budget
process.

CONSULTATION
The legislative
requirement for Council to complete supplementary valuations is contained
within the Valuation of Land Act 1960. All supplementary
valuations contained in this report have been undertaken in accordance with the
2016 Valuation Best Practice Specifications Guidelines.
The supplementary valuations
completed during October and November have been certified by the
Valuer-General’s office (VGV) as being suitable for use by Council. The supplementary valuations completed during December have been
submitted to the VGV, and are awaiting certification. Please note that
Councils may use supplementary valuations prior to VGV certification.
FINANCIAL
IMPLICATIONS
The total change
to the Capital Improved Value (CIV) caused by the supplementary valuations
undertaken is an increase of $310,764,000. This change in CIV has generated an
additional $308,768 of supplementary rate income.
A summary of
Council’s valuation totals for all rateable and
non-rateable properties is shown below in Table #2, Table #3 and Table
#4.

Ordinary Council Meeting 30
January 2017
9.4.2 Review
of Mayoral and Councillor Allowances
FILE NUMBER: SF12/910
SUMMARY
The purpose of this report is to commence the review
process of Mayoral and Councillor allowances as required under the Local
Government Act 1989.
|
RECOMMENDATION
That Council:
1. Having conducted a
preliminary review of the Mayoral and Councillor allowances as required by
Section 74 (1) of the Local Government Act, proposes that the
Councillor and Mayoral allowances for the next four financial years (i.e. 1
July 2017 to 30 June 2021, subject to annual indexation and any change by
Order in Council, be set at the following amount:
· Councillor $29,630 pa
· Mayoral $94,641 pa
· Plus an amount equivalent to the superannuation guarantee
contribution (currently 9.5%)
2. In accordance with
section 74(4) of the Local Government Act 1989, give public notice in the
Whitehorse Leader on Monday 6 February 2017, as part of the public
consultation on the proposed allowances and call for submissions under
section 223 of the Act, and
3. Advises that any
submissions received will be considered and heard by the Special Committee of
the whole Council on Tuesday 14 March 2017 at 8.00pm in the Council Chambers,
Whitehorse Civic Centre 379 to 397 Whitehorse Rd Nunawading.
|
background
Section 74(1) of the Local Government Act 1989 (the
Act) requires Councils to “review and determine the level of Mayoral
and the Councillor allowances within the period of six months after a general
election or by next 30 June, whichever is later.”
This review is a public process and any person has a right
to make a submission undersection 223 of the Act. This review will determine
the allowances that will be payable from the range available for the next four
years. The Allowances assist the Mayor and Councillors to offset expenses related
to performing and fulfilling their role as a councillor representing the
community.
DISCUSSION
Councillor allowances are indexed annually by the State
Government under section 73B of the Act, having regard to movements in the
levels of remuneration of executives within the meaning of the Public
Administration Act 2004, with the most recent adjusted by the Minister for
Local Government effective from the time of the new Council taking the Oath of
Office. (Refer to the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning,
circular 42/2016 dated 18 November 2016 Appendix 1 and Victoria Government
Gazette G47 24 November 2016 Appendix 2) The Minister also advised that
payment of allowances cannot exceed more than one month in advance.
Whitehorse Council is a Category 3 – and the range
for allowances are:
· Part A Mayor up to $94,641pa
· Councillors $12,367pa - $29,630pa
Part B An amount equivalent to the superannuation guarantee
– currently 9.5% is an additional component added to the allowance
To date, Whitehorse Council has paid the maximum amount. A
quick survey of a number of
other metropolitan Councils has revealed that they also pay
the maximum level, with the only exception being City of Kingston.
The Mayor is not entitled to receive a Councillor allowance
if receiving the Mayoral allowance. Further Council does not have to pay an
allowance to a Councillor or Mayor who does not want to receive an allowance.
Councillors can enter into an arrangement to effectively
sacrifice their remuneration before they derive these amounts. Such sacrifice
arrangements can be made into a complying superannuation fund and be designated
before the payment is made.
Council must now determine what the limit of the allowances
will be for the next four years and then commence the public consultation
process to receive and hear if requested, any community comment on these
limits. Council is then required to take into account any comments made by the
public before confirming or changing the limit. Any such changes are effective
from the date of the Council resolution.
CONSULTATION
Consulted with other Councils to compare allowances paid.
FINANCIAL
IMPLICATIONS
Budget
allocation required to meet statutory requirements.

circular 42/2016 dated 18 November 2016
Appendix 2: Victoria Government Gazette G47 24 November 2016
Councillor Allowance Categories
Councils are divided into three
categories based on the income and population of each Council.
The Minister for Local Government has
approved an adjustment factor increase of 2.5% to the below Mayoral and
Councillor allowances, effective 1 December 2016, under section 73B(4) of the
local Government Act 1989.

Ordinary Council Meeting 30
January 2017
9.4.5 Adoption
of Instrument of Appointment and Authorisation under the Planning and
Environment Act 1987
SUMMARY
The purpose of this report is to
recommend approval of an Instrument of Appointment and Authorisation under the
Planning and Environment Act 1987, from the Council to a position in the
organisation.
|
RECOMMENDATION
That Council approve the proposed appointment of
authorised officer pursuant to the Planning and Environment Act 1987 as
attached to this report.
|
background
The proposed Instrument of
Appointment and Authorisation (pursuant to the Planning and Environment Act
1987) has been prepared following advice received from Council’s
solicitors Maddocks and is similar to that used by many Victorian
municipalities.
The Instrument of Appointment and
Authorisation allows Council officers to conduct their normal business in
relation to enforcement of the Planning and Environment Act 1987 and to
act and commence proceedings in Council’s name.
These appointments
must be made by resolution of the Council; section 3(6) of the Local
Government Act 1989 defines ‘resolution of the council’ as
including a power exercised under delegation (ie: by the Chief Executive Officer),
however section 188 (2) (c) of the Planning and Environment Act 1987
prohibits authorisations being made under delegation.
The Instrument of Appointment and
Authorisation would come into force once the common seal is affixed to the
Instrument.
CONSULTATION
Relevant staff including General
Manager City Development and Manager Planning and Building were consulted
during the preparation of the proposed Instrument of Appointment and
Authorisation.
FINANCIAL
IMPLICATIONS
There are no financial implications.
POLICY IMPLICATIONS
There are no policy implications.
