2 CITY OF RYDE PROCUREMENT

The ATTACHED report on formal procurement at the City of Ryde provides information as to Requests for Tender or Requests for Quotation that are currently in the market. The report also outlines those items of procurement (if any) that are to be reported to the next meeting of Council in accordance with the requirements of the Local Government Act and Regulations. This includes all procurement in the bracket of $50k - $150k in value (Request for Quotation) or exceeding $150k inc GST (Request for Tenders).

Some of these processes may be marked as being limited to selective respondents. Where this is the case, there has been a publicly advertised Expression of Interest process to establish select respondents or a panel of select respondents that are prequalified to undertake the required works.

The clinic aims to get those already skating and scooting to challenge themselves, learn some new tricks and master some of the manoeuvres they have been trying for a while. Skaters will be able to apply their skills on the ramps and rails of the pop up skate park which will be set up for this clinic. Session will be taught by qualified and experienced instructors.

6 WITHDRAWAL OF PLANNING PROPOSAL- 25-27 AND 29 EPPING ROAD, MACQUARIE PARK

Councillors are advised that a Planning Proposal for 25-27 Epping Road, Macquarie Park has been withdrawn.

The Planning Proposal was received on 22 June 2015. 25-27 Epping Road is in the ownership of UrbanGrowthNSW, and 29 Epping Road is owned by Calardu P/L (Harvey Norman). The Planning Proposal aimed to change the Land Zoning, Floor Space Ratio, Height of Buildings, Centres and Macquarie Park Corridor Parking Restrictions Map to reflect a proposed land swap between the two properties.

Council resolved on 25 August 2015 to forward the Planning Proposal to the Department of Planning and Environment for a Gateway Determination, which was subsequently received (dated 12 November 2015). The Gateway Determination required that public exhibition be deferred until consultation had occurred with UrbanGrowthNSW.

During the period of consultation with UrbanGrowthNSW, the applicant (Calardu P/L) advised Council on 16 December 2015 that it wished to withdraw the Planning Proposal. Council will now advise the Department of Planning and Environment to terminate the Planning Proposal.
