COUNCIL MEETING 21 April 2015 Page 4 17. REPORTS OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

17.1 Information Report on Council Rates Concessions Petition Brief This report provides an update on the petition dealing with the withdrawal of funding for pensioner concessions. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended to Council that the report be received. Introduction During May 2015, the Australian Government announced its decision to cut the National Partnership Agreement on certain concession card and senior card holders (NAP). This NAP provided funding for the 2013/14 financial year to cover all concessions to part pensioners within South Australia and concluded last financial year. However, the State Government maintained council rate concessions paid under the South Australian Rates and Land Tax Remission Act 1986 this financial year but announced it would withdraw its pensioner rates concessions from 1 July 2015. This withdrawal of funding for pensioner concessions has created significant concern within the community. Consequently, a report was provided to the 20 January 2015 meeting of Council detailing the State Government's plans to withdraw pensioner concessions on council rates. Council subsequently resolved that it:

1. Not replace the loss of funds resulting from the withdrawal of Federal and State Government funding for pensioner concessions;

2. Agree to participate in a campaign supported by the Local Government Association which

seeks to reinstatement of the concessions for pensioners;

3. Agree to insert a flyer with the next quarterly rates notice, along with information in the Messenger column and Talking Points, alerting ratepayers to the "bill shock" that will result from the removal of pensioner concessions on rates.

Discussion As part of its campaign, the Local Government Association Board resolved that a "Concessions on Council Rates Petition" (Petition) be submitted to the State Parliament. This Petition was provided by the Local Government Association (LGA) to all South Australian councils requesting that it be made available for signing at council offices, libraries and appropriate community locations and to community representative organisations. The City of West Torrens received the Petition on 25 March 2015 and arranged for it to be made available at the Council's Civic Centre, Hamra Centre Library, Thebarton Community Centre, Plympton Community Centre and the Camden Community Centre. The petition has also been distributed to a number of community representative organisations. 490 people have signed the petition as at close of business Wednesday 15 April 2015.

COUNCIL MEETING 21 April 2015 Page 5 The LGA has provided two deadlines for the submission of the petition in order for it to be tabled in the House of Assembly as follows:

• Those petitions which by 20 April 2015 that have amassed 200 or more signatures are to be submitted by councils to one of their local members of parliament for tabling in Parliament during the week commencing Tuesday 5 May 2015.

• All other petitions received by Monday 18 May 2015 are to be submitted to one of the local members of Parliament in order for them to be tabled in Parliament during the week commencing Tuesday 2 June 2015.

In line with these requirements, the Administration has contacted the office of Dr Duncan McFetridge MP, the State Member for Morphett, requesting that he table the petition during the parliamentary sitting week commencing Tuesday 5 May 2015. Dr McFetridge's staff have indicated that he welcomes the opportunity to table the petition on behalf of Council. Conclusion The petition dealing with the withdrawal of funding for pensioner concessions has amassed 490 signatures (as at close of business Wednesday 15 April 2015) and will be provided to Dr Duncan McFetridge MP, State Member for Morphett, on Monday 20 April 2015, for tabling in Parliament during the parliamentary sitting week commencing Tuesday 5 May 2015.

'That the Federal Government considers the complete banning of drones over Capital Cities and Canberra for security and safety reasons and specified security areas in Australia and along flight paths near airports and large country airports.'

Introduction At its meeting of 7 April 2015, Council was advised that the Australian Local Government Association (ALGA) was inviting notices of motions for its upcoming National General Assembly (Assembly) to be held at the National Convention Centre in Canberra from 14-17 June 2015. Discussion At the same meeting Council resolved that any proposed notices of motions for this Assembly were to be provided to the Chief Executive Officer by 13 April 2015 and presented to Council at its 21 April 2015 meeting. In line with this process, the following notice of motion was received from Cr Mangos for Council's consideration and approval. "That the Federal Government considers the complete banning of drones over Capital Cities and Canberra for security and safety reasons and specified security areas in Australia and along flight paths near airports and large country airports". Conclusion The ALGA is seeking notices of motion from councils for its upcoming National General Assembly. One (1) proposed notice of motion is presented to Council for its consideration and approval. All approved notices of motion will be provided to the ALGA by Wednesday 22 April 2015 for inclusion in the National General Assembly agenda.

COUNCIL MEETING 21 April 2015 Page 32 21. CONFIDENTIAL

21.1 Divestment Proposal - Brickworks Riverfront Land Reason for Confidentiality The Council is satisfied that, pursuant to Section 90(3)(b)(i) and 90(3)(b)(ii) of the Local Government Act 1999, the information to be received, discussed or considered in relation to this agenda item is information, the disclosure of which could reasonably be expected to confer a commercial advantage on a person with whom the council is conducting, or proposing to conduct business, or to prejudice the commercial position of the council and if the contents of this confidential report became publicly known at this point in time it may lead to council not being able to achieve the best possible price and/or development outcome for the Brickworks Riverfront land. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended to Council that: 1. Pursuant to Section 90(2) of the Local Government Act 1999, Council is satisfied that the

principle that the meeting be conducted in a place open to the public has been outweighed in the circumstances because the public disclosure of Council's commercial position in relation to the Brickworks Riverfront land may severely prejudice Council's ability to achieve the best possible price and/or development outcome for the Brickworks Riverfront land and confer a commercial advantage on a person(s) within whom Council is considering conducting business. Consequently, Council considers the disclosure of this information would, on balance, be contrary to the public interest and therefore orders that the public, with the exception of the Chief Executive Officer, Deputy Chief Executive Officer, General Manager Corporate and Regulatory, General Manager Urban Services, General Manager Organisational Support and Governance Officer (Agendas and Minutes), be excluded from attendance at so much of the meeting as is necessary to receive, discuss and consider in confidence, information contained within the confidential report (21.1 - Divestment Proposal - Brickworks Riverfront Land), attachments and any associated documentation submitted by the Chief Executive Officer, specifically on the basis of the provisions of Sections 90(3)(b)(i) and 90(3)(b)(ii) of the Local Government Act 1999.

Adelaide Cobras Soccer Club The overdue amount relates to the repayment of the fourth instalment of the lights at Weigall Oval. A payment plan was entered into in April 2015 which involves an initial payment of $1,500 and instalments of $1,000 per month thereafter. The first instalment of $1,500 has been received. Late payment penalties are being applied to the overdue balance. West Adelaide Football Club Inc Reports on the indebtedness of the West Adelaide Football Club have been provided to Council since September 2013. The overdue amount consists of lease fees from May to March ($28,132.83), late payment interest penalties ($3,586.81), SA Water accounts for July 2014 to March 2015 ($1,615.76), the Emergency Services Levy for 2014/15 ($1,750), the balance of an oval lighting advance repayment of ($7,910.20) and an AAL lighting contribution of ($11,000).

FINANCE AND REGULATORY PRESCRIBED STANDING COMMITTEE 21 April 2015 Page 17 The overdue debts of the WAFC over the last 12 months are as follows:

On 2 September 2014 Council agreed to a payment plan with the WAFC which involved the club committing to a weekly repayment of $1,650. The club has struggled to meet this requirement due to a tight cash flow position and is currently fifteen weeks in arrears to the plan. Payment by the club is expected to resume now that the football season is underway. Their rates accounts are currently up to date, with the third instalment being paid in March 2015. Conclusion The report provides information on the property lease payments that are overdue, in response to a Council resolution on 17 September 2013.

FINANCE AND REGULATORY PRESCRIBED STANDING COMMITTEE 21 April 2015 Page 24 11.4 Council Budget Report - NINE months to 31 March 2015 Brief This report provides information to Council on budget results for the nine months ended 31st March 2015. RECOMMENDATION(S) It is recommended to Council that the report be received. Introduction The report provides year to date (YTD) budget results for March 2015. Discussion Budget variances are summarised in the financial report which is included as Attachment 1, with key variances explained below in terms of:

• Operational Income • Operational Expenditure • Capital Expenditure • Capital Income • Capital Works Expenditure

Operational Income Key variances include:

• Statutory charges are $99,260 below the YTD budget, largely due to less than expected

parking related income ($39,280) and Development Act fees ($31,685), and the timing of dog related income ($23,572).

• User charges are below budget YTD by $4,065, mostly due to St Martins ($53,648) and waste ($29,363), but these are partly offset by a favourable variance for leased property income ($68,266).

• Grants and subsidies income is above budget YTD by $12,328, largely due to the timing of grants associated with HACC ($30,459) and highway medians ($35,300), but these have been partly offset by the timing of special road grants ($27,269).

• Reimbursements and other income is $103,278 above budget YTD, largely because of better than expected investment income for the Mendelson Foundation ($63,072) and Council generally ($47,561).

The end of year (EOY) forecast for operational income is expected to remain unchanged to the current revised budget. Operational Expenditure Key variances include:

• Staff and related costs are $222,351 below budget YTD, largely for timing reasons associated with HACC ($55,540), depot operations ($64,541), leave provisioning ($72,082) and training / WHS ($69,257).


• General expenses are below YTD budgets by $696,811 with timing related variances for professional fees ($484,529), general expenses ($55,100), minor capital ($28,442), and publications and printing ($45,673).

• Council related expenditure is $147,685 below budget YTD, but this is mostly timing related, involving street lighting ($95,970), and community grants ($37,133).

• Bank and finance expenditure is under YTD budget by $73,795, with income collection

charges and accommodation bond interest payments lower than expected YTD by $31,060 and $43,652 respectively.

• Occupancy and property costs are below budget YTD by $81,364. Power costs ($88,394) and water rates ($13,188) are lower than budget YTD, largely for timing reasons.

The EOY forecast for operational expenditure is to remain unchanged to the current revised budget. Capital Expenditure Key variances include:

• Motor vehicle replacement costs are less than the YTD budget by $183,161, but this is timing related.

• Computer equipment expenditure is below budget YTD by $140,416, but this is also timing related.

• Other plant and equipment expenditure is below YTD budget by $811,804 for timing reasons. Most is depot related.

• Land and building costs are $3,869,912 below budget YTD, most of which is community hub and property related.

• Library resources expenditure is below budget YTD by $7,025. The EOY forecast for capital expenditure is to remain unchanged to the current revised budget. Capital Income Key variances include:

• An unfavourable capital income variance of $1,356,912 which predominantly relates to the Mile End Cowandilla stormwater drainage upgrade income not yet received (carried over from 2013/14).

The EOY capital income budget is expected to remain unchanged to the current budget, with the variance timing related. Capital Works Expenditure Expenditure on capital works YTD is $9,317,598. A capital works expenditure summary for YTD March 2015 is attached with appropriate comments provided on the status of individual budget lines. 72.0 percent of the capital works budget has been spent or committed by way of purchase orders as at 31st March 2015.

FINANCE AND REGULATORY PRESCRIBED STANDING COMMITTEE 21 April 2015 Page 26 It is estimated that 100 per cent of the forecast budget of $24,421,396 is required to complete the program of works and that 93 per cent will be completed by 30 June 2015. The EOY forecast for capital works expenditure is expected to remain unchanged to the current revised budget. Conclusion Information is provided in this report on budget results for the nine months ended 31st March 2015.

11.1 Building Western Adelaide Economic Development Brief To provide for Council's consideration and feedback to the draft Building Western Adelaide economic development document prepared by the City of Charles Sturt. RECOMMENDATION(S) It is recommended to Council that the Administration: 1. Advise the City of Charles Sturt of Council's in principle support for the creation of a

Western alliance between the Cities of West Torrens, Port Adelaide Enfield, Holdfast Bay and Charles Sturt for economic development matters.

2. Provide feedback to the City of Charles Sturt on the draft Building Western Adelaide

economic development document based on the contents of this report, subject to any feedback and changes from Council.

Introduction On 9 April City of West Torrens received a letter from Mark Withers, CEO of the City of Charles Sturt, advising of his Council's resolution in relation to economic development for the Western Adelaide region, provided at Attachment 1. At its meeting on 23 March 2015 the City of Charles Sturt (CCS) resolved that the draft Building Western Adelaide document be endorsed in principle for the purpose of consulting with neighbouring Councils (West Torrens, Port Adelaide Enfield and Holdfast Bay) to seek support in creating a Western Councils Alliance, as proposed in their Economic Development Strategy; and to obtain input and comment on the draft document. CCS particularly requested input of additional content such as projects and points of interest in the region to be added to the economic development strategy. Eligible projects will be those of regional significance and scale that significantly contribute to local employment. Feedback on the draft document has been requested by 24 April 2015. Discussion The City of West Torrens has previously collaborated with City of Charles Sturt and the Inner Western Business Enterprise Centre, which has provided advice to small business for nearly 20 years. In early 2015, Council was advised that Commonwealth funding for this Centre had been withdrawn. As part of a regional approach to economic development capacity building, the City of Charles Sturt has sent correspondence requesting feedback on their draft Regional Economic Development document Building Western Adelaide. The Building Western Adelaide document identifies the key projects that will drive employment and investment in the region for the next 10 to 15 years. Crucial industries recognised in the strategy include Tourism and Recreation; Small Business Development; Health; Transport and Defence. Council's CEO and Manager City Strategy were invited to meet with staff from the City of Charles Sturt and the other Western councils in late February 2015. At this meeting the Administration provided feedback on an earlier iteration of the draft Building Western Adelaide document.

STRATEGY AND COMMUNITY PRESCRIBED STANDING COMMITTEE 21 April 2015 Page 4 The feedback provided at this time included comment that the document in its present form focusses primarily on the Charles Sturt Council area, rather than the broader Western area, and that issues and projects of specific relevance to the West Torrens Council area (and others) are not well represented. West Torrens needs to ensure that local projects are considered in the region's economic development planning to capitalise on opportunities of proximity and easy access to the new South Australian Health & Medical Research Institute (SAHMRI) building; existing and proposed public transport infrastructure; and the locational advantage of proximity to the Adelaide Airport and Adelaide city more generally. While there is undoubtedly a benefit in cooperating in a regional approach to economic development, further opportunity to contribute to a comprehensive regional strategy, and provide input from the West Torrens Council perspective will leverage greater benefit for this Council. There is a concern that a lack of dedicated resources may leave West Torrens Council in a weaker position to advocate for the needs of this Council in any process that plans at a regional level. However, this may be offset by the benefits of an effectively combined approach to planning for economic development of the region. While there are no immediate impacts on the Council budget, additional resources for this area could provide improved localised results. Current resourcing provides limited scope for attention in this area and limited opportunity to influence the final output of the proposed strategy and outcomes to date. Economic prosperity in a region influences employment opportunities and investment in the area, which also has a flow on effect to the wellbeing of residents. Items for addition into the plan include: • The project identified as 'Bio Innovation Accelerator Building' should be amended to focus on

the Technology Hub more generally, as per the Thebarton Technology Hub Master Plan adopted by Council in May 2013;

• Projects that involve all 4 councils should be identified as such, rather than listing City of Charles Sturt only; and

• The report should contain greater detail regarding contributing financial partners for each project.

Conclusion The City of Charles Sturt proposes that Western councils work together in alliance to support economic development in the Western Adelaide region, and has prepared a draft Building Western Adelaide document for the purpose of consulting with neighbouring Councils. A more comprehensive plan for economic development of the Western region may enable each Council in the cluster to benefit from the strengths of the neighbouring Councils to the improvement of the region and protect against unnecessary competing development. A coordinated regional approach may also produce amplified results and a competitive advantage when compared with using a solo economic development methodology, with the additional benefit of achieving a more cohesive result for City of West Torrens and the wider western region.

Not all Building Rules Consents are assessed by Council, about half are assessed by private assessors known as Private Certifiers, these privately certified assessments still need to be registered and recorded with Council.

Development Approval means that all required assessments have been undertaken and all required consents granted, the approvals number most accurately shows the proposals that will actually be undertaken.

Compliance actions include investigating potential use of properties for activities that haven't been approved, buildings being constructed without the required approvals, checking of older buildings that may be becoming structurally unsound. Sec 84 notices are the first stage of prosecution for unapproved development. Sec 69 notices are the first stage of prosecution for unsafe buildings. Sec 51 clearances, refers to the final check of properties with approval to subdivide, this is where we give the all clear for new Certificates of Title to be issued.

The Development Act and Council's Building Inspection Policy requires that a minimum number of approved buildings are inspected for compliance with their associated Development Approval documentation. In addition there is a requirement to undertake a pool safety inspection upon all swimming pools approved for construction. Class 1 & 2 refers to houses and units, Class 3-9 refers to commercial, industrial and community buildings, Class 10 refers to verandahs, sheds, fences etc. Where 100% of inspections have not been met in a month the requirement is rolled over to the next month until all required inspections have been undertaken.

For the past four years people have been able to check the progress of their own development applications or check the history of development applications on an allotment via the internet on Council's website. Over the past 18 months the department has been adding historic applications to this system with the aim of creating a database where all of the area's application history can be accessed electronically.

When an application is lodged with the State Government's Office of Liquor & Gambling (OLG), it is also required to be referred to Council for our comment. The proposals are handled in accordance with our Liquor Licensing Policy, and Limited Licence applications are referred to the relevant Ward Councillors for their comment prior to feedback being sent to the OLG.

STRATEGY AND COMMUNITY PRESCRIBED STANDING COMMITTEE 21 April 2015 Page 42 11.3 City Strategy Activity Report Brief To provide Elected Members with information on recent activities undertaken by the City Strategy Department. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended to Council that the report be received. Introduction An update on key projects and activities within City Strategy follows:

Key activities Update

Community Planning

Community Facilities Reports were presented to the 24 March Community Facilities Committee's meeting outlining the: 1. Background of the multi-purpose community facilities across the City

of West Torrens; 2. Final design for approval to proceed from the Design Phase to

Development Assessment; 3. History of feedback from the head lease holder and how it has been

incorporated into the final design; and 4. The proposed approach to the lease agreement between Council and

the head lease holder of the new multi-purpose community facility. Staff are now progressing: • A full prudential report pertaining to the proposal; • Full cost implications and timings attached to expenditure; • The nomination of at least 5 building companies capable of

constructing the facility; and • Written confirmation that the PHOS Camden Social Club supports the

implementation of the current facility design and head lessee arrangements, including and administration of the community hire management model.

These will be presented to the next meeting of the Community Facilities Committee in May.

Regional Sports Facility Planning

The Western Adelaide Sporting Facilities Supply and Demand Study is a regional collaboration between the Cities of Port Adelaide Enfield, Charles Sturt and West Torrens to plan for future sporting facility needs across all Council areas. A revised draft of the final study has been prepared by the consultant and was circulated to the project partners in March. The draft document was distributed internally to relevant departments, including City Assets and Community Services, and feedback has been provided by City Strategy to the project consultants.


Environmental Planning

Environment grants Five applications were received and have been assessed against the selection criteria. A recommendation report will be provided to the April meeting of the Civic Committee.

Environment events West Torrens participated in the 2015 Earth Hour. Staff were encouraged to switch off all appliances at the power point prior to leaving work for the weekend. A World Water Day bus tour for residents has been organised and advertised for Saturday 11 April 2015. The tour of sites around the City of West Torrens offers insights into the history and future of water management across the Council area. During the World Water Day tour participants will: • visit Break Out Creek to learn about creek and river systems • be given information on how to use water on your property more

effectively • learn about Water Sensitive Urban Design methods being undertaken

by our Council.

Water Quality Sampling

A preferred supplier has been engaged to undertake water quality sampling at a selection of Council's stormwater management devices. A range of water treatment devices (eg rain gardens, swales, and gross pollutant traps) across the City will be assessed to determine how effectively chemicals in stormwater are filtered by passing through the vegetation and soil profile of various roadside treatments.

Adapt West (formerly the Western Adelaide Region Climate Change Adaptation Project)

Three Integrated Vulnerability Assessment (IVA) workshops were held at the Thebarton Community Centre to assess the adaptive capacity of the City's environmental, social and economic features to increased heatwaves, increased intensity of rainfall events, and a rising sea level. The workshops were attended by various experts and stakeholders from across the Western Adelaide region, including a number of Elected Members and staff from the Cities of Port Adelaide Enfield, Charles Sturt and West Torrens. The sessions focussed on: • Infrastructure and economy; • Community and social services; and • Natural environment. Elected Members from the three councils have been invited to attend a final session to present and discuss the results from the IVA workshops on Wednesday 20 May, 6:30 - 9.00pm at the Education Development Centre, Milner Street, Hindmarsh.

Water Consumption and Carbon Footprint reporting

The Water Consumption Report 2013/14 and the Carbon Footprint Report 2013/14 were prepared and presented to the Corporate Planning, Policy and Performance Committee on 10 March.


Land Use Planning

Housing Diversity DPA

The Administration sent a letter of response to the Minister providing feedback on his proposed changes to the DPA, in accordance with Council's resolutions of 17 March 2015. We are now awaiting the Minister's final decision on the changes proposed to planning policy under the Housing Diversity Development Plan Amendment.

Strategic Directions Report

City Strategy met with DPTI to discuss the Towards 2025 Strategic Directions report which was forwarded to DPTI in September 2014, and the proposed work program of high priority DPAs, namely the Employment DPA , Activity Centres DPA and Local Heritage Places DPA. A written response from Stuart Moseley, General Manager Information and Strategy, DPTI on behalf of the Minister for Planning was received on 10 March, with feedback on the forward program of DPA activity. The letter has been included in the correspondence section of this agenda.

Adelaide Airport - Major Development Plan for an Airport Hotel.

Council's response to the Adelaide Airport Hotel, Draft Major Development Plan was forwarded to Adelaide Airport Limited (AAL). Council received a prompt response from AAL's Executive General Manager Ken May, indicating he had read Council's commentary on the draft Hotel MDP, "with interest" and requesting a meeting with staff to discuss issues raised in Council's response in more detail.

Activity Centres Ministerial DPA

Initial investigations are being undertaken by the State Government with a view to drafting two Development Plan Amendments (DPAs) affecting retail development across Greater Adelaide, and the Minister has invited feedback on a preliminary draft of principles for activity centres and activity centre users. Following internal consultation with City Development and other relevant departments, City Strategy prepared a report to Council on 17 March with initial comment on the principles and the potential options for consideration to achieve them. A submission based on this report and feedback from Council was provided to DPTI on 30 March.


Corporate Planning

Reporting on Service Plans

The 2nd Quarter progress report was prepared and presented to the Corporate Planning, Policy and Performance Committee on 10 March, providing an overview of Council's performance towards implementation of the Community Plan through the annual departmental Service Plans. Service Plans for 2014/15 were reported to be: • 95.1% On-track/ Completed • 3.1% Monitor and • 1.9% Off-track

Conclusion This report details recent activities of the City Strategy department.

STRATEGY AND COMMUNITY PRESCRIBED STANDING COMMITTEE 21 April 2015 Page 46 11.4 Community Services Activity Report Brief To provide Elected Members with information on activities within the Community Services Department RECOMMENDATION It is recommended to Council that the Community Services Activities Report be received. Departmental - Partnership with Richmond Lions Club Recently the Richmond Lions Club approached the Administration to discuss options for how it might spend some of the proceeds from its Opportunity Shop located in a Council owned building in Penong Avenue. The Club was most interested in ensuring that the community of West Torrens that supports its operations should also see the benefits of that support flowing back to this area. After discussion, two initiatives were decided upon by the club which will see an amount of approx. $25,000 spent for community benefit. The two initiatives are: 1. Installation of Defibrillators The Club will purchase up to six defibrillators to be installed in community facilities and centres in West Torrens, in addition to purchasing one for its Penong Ave store. The technology for these types of device has improved greatly in recent years such that they can now be operated by relatively untrained personnel in community settings. This can prove to be lifesaving in those vital few minutes before paramedics arrive. These types of devices are becoming more prominent in community settings. Several shopping/retail and office complexes now have them available. Given the large number of older residents active in the West Torrens community the installation of these devices will add a greater sense of security to our residents 2. Development and Installation of "Little Free Libraries" Little free libraries are a simple idea with broad appeal that is being implemented by local communities around the world. They are just beginning to appear in South Australia. Beginning in communities in the USA in 2009 they have now spread with at least 25,000 established around the world. In essence it’s a simple idea. It’s a box in a public place or a front yard available to the public. The simple rule is "take a book - leave a book". It’s a small scale neighbourhood book exchange which has shown the potential to help make community connections, bringing people of all ages together and promoting a love of reading. The boxes can come in many shapes and sizes limited only by the imagination.

STRATEGY AND COMMUNITY PRESCRIBED STANDING COMMITTEE 21 April 2015 Page 47 Through the generosity of the Richmond Lions Club there are sufficient funds available to locate up to 20 little free libraries throughout the West Torrens Community. This will make West Torrens the community with the largest number of little free libraries in the State. Community Services will work with the Club and other units of Council to identify suitable locations. Sites for the libraries can include playgrounds, parks, near schools and child care centres, in shopping precincts and community centres. In other communities the little free libraries are also monitored by community members taking on the role of "stewards" who keep an eye on them and keep them clean and safe. There has been very little damage or placement of inappropriate material in these libraries in communities where they have been established. It is expected that "stewards" could be drawn from interested community members, West Torrens volunteers, Richmond Lions Club members, staff or parents from nearby schools and child care centres. The Library and its mobile Library service will also monitor this project. It is also intended to approach the two Men's Sheds in our city to participate in the construction of these libraries. This will add to the community benefit of this project. It is anticipated that this project will roll out over the coming year with progressive "openings" of libraries in neighbourhoods across our city. Children and Youth Youth Expo The Youth Team in conjunction with the Cities of Port Adelaide Enfield and Charles Sturt, the Multicultural Communities Council of SA and Uniting Care Wesley Port Adelaide coordinated the Youth Expo. This was an event showcasing services for young people in the Western Region held at the Adelaide Arena. It featured a school band, 45 stallholders, a BBQ provided by the Camden Sea Scouts, and more than 800 attendees. Schools from West Torrens in attendance were William Light R-12, which brought students from its alternative education program, and Warriappendi School, which brought all of its students.

Afterschool Swim Safety program In conjunction with the Thebarton Aquatic Centre, the Youth team delivered an 8 week Afterschool Swim Safety program for migrant and refugee youth. It concluded on March 31. Involving 20 young people aged 10-14 from 5 schools in our region, it focused on areas of swim safety including: Survival strokes, Personal Flotation Device (PFD) use, calling for help and how to help other swimmers, conserving energy and maintaining heat; among other important skills. Transport support was provided and highly utilised and attendance averaged 19 participants per week. The program was extremely well received by participants as indicated by the surveys completed at the final session.

STRATEGY AND COMMUNITY PRESCRIBED STANDING COMMITTEE 21 April 2015 Page 48 School Holiday Program The April Get With The Program school holiday program kicks off on Monday 13th April. Running for 11 days there are 32 events for children and youth of all ages. Cowandilla Primary School New Arrivals Night On Wednesday April 1, the Youth Librarian presented at Cowandilla Primary school's parent/teacher evening for new arrivals families to discuss Community Services available to them. Parents were particularly interested in the School Holiday Program, Term 2 Footy program, Homework Help and ESL classes. This was followed by a presentation about the School Holiday and Footy Programs at the school's assembly the following week. Library Library Customer Satisfaction Survey The Survey has concluded and more detailed results will be available in a separate report. Just over 300 responses were received to the survey. In brief, the library staff were rated highly (94 - 97%) by respondents for their level of friendliness, courtesy, customer service, knowledge and skills. 97% of respondents were satisfied or very satisfied with the types of services and activities provided by the library. The findings are still in the process of being analysed. Once completed a more detailed report will be made to Council and will guide further planning for developing the Library and its programs. Book Launch The latest book launch in partnership with Wakefield Press was held in The Auditorium on March 17th. This was a successful evening, and well supported by the community. Wakefield Press provided copies of the book 'Silver Lies, Golden Truths' for purchase on the night. The popularity of the evening and the appreciation shown by the customers of the well run event generated appreciative feedback for Library staff. Multicultural Events The Mayor officially opened the celebrations for Harmony Day on March 18th. This was a very popular and well attended (164) event. The atmosphere was celebratory, friendly and supportive. People of all ages enjoyed the BBQ, the face painting and the dance class. Linked with this event was the formal opening of "Faces of West Torrens". This was a collection of images by local photographer Ela Bozeck, specially commissioned to promote Harmony Day events and to celebrate the diversity of the West Torrens Community. Also to mark Harmony Day the Pre School Story Time program made Persian crafts. During Term One the Pre School Story Time themes have included bi lingual storytelling sessions for Chinese New Year and for Holi, an Indian Festival of Colours. These themes have resonated with the audience as many are from Indian or Chinese cultures. Planning is well underway for a Refugee Week event in mid-June (movie and guest speakers), and for additional cultural evenings in 2015. It is proposed one will be held on 10 September (Chinese theme) and one on 29 October (Greek theme). A number of Library staff will be attending a one day workshop on serving multicultural customers in late April. The training is offered by Public Library Services and delivered by Dr Fiona Swee-Lin Price of Tamago Consulting.

STRATEGY AND COMMUNITY PRESCRIBED STANDING COMMITTEE 21 April 2015 Page 49 Welcome to Your Library brochures have been prepared by the Community Languages Group in Chinese and Farsi. Translations in Nepali, Dari, Arabic and Swahili will be available in the near future. Movie Nights All Movie Nights are held on Thursday evening, 7pm in The Auditorium and are free. • May 28: The Railway Man (M) • July 23: The Hundred Foot Journey (PG) • September 24: Pride and Prejudice (G) • November 26: The Water Diviner (M) One Card Public Library Services' intention is to work towards having a database where almost all library users have only one borrower card on the system. To this end a trial project has begun to de-duplicate and clean up our State-wide customer database. The trial will remove all inactive borrowers with a birth date between 1970 and 1974. The system indicates that this will remove up to 10,000 current records from the system. Once this record removal has been undertaken the database will be reviewed and then records which appear to be both inactive and have no outstanding data attached to them will continue to be deleted. One of the benefits of purging the database is that there will eventually be far fewer customer records on the system, making it easier to search the database and to ensure that prospective new library customers are not already on the system. It also ensures fair use of the system if all members have one card for borrowing and placing hold requests. Community Development Disability Awareness Training As part of the scheduled process of raising Council awareness about disability access and rights issues a workshop was delivered to staff in the City Strategy team in March. Auditorium Gallery - Sensual Sights Hellenic Themes by Desma Kastanos This exhibition Opened on April 2nd by Dr Maureen Prichard (Artist and art teacher) and Acting Mayor George Demetriou with entertainment by Gypsy Junkies.

Sewing studio The "Open Night" was a great hit, attracting 42 people - mainly residents of CWT or adjoining Council areas, and some from Gawler and Onkaparinga areas (approx. 60% CWT residents, 40% non-resident).

STRATEGY AND COMMUNITY PRESCRIBED STANDING COMMITTEE 21 April 2015 Page 50 Group members were actively involved in planning and hosting the event, which showcased the charity work of the group and personal projects completed by members. Guest speaker, Margaret Marsh, talked about her love of sewing and demonstrated some of her colourful handbags. Three new members have joined since the Open night. Community gardens The gardening workshop titled "Easy propagation and perennial vegetables" attracted 24 participants (from all three of our community gardens, plus other local residents) The presenter, Pauline Muir, was extremely knowledgeable, and attendees all left with potted plants, cuttings or seeds to plant at home. Evaluation feedback from the session was very positive. Bookings for the third session, titled Growing fruit trees and soft fruits, have commenced.

• Clifford Street, Torrensville

More new gardeners joined the group and two additional plots were allocated to those on the waiting list - one to a new resident who has built a new home in the area. Shed keys will be issued to new gardeners in April during 'meet and greet / induction' get-togethers.

• Long Street, Plympton Two women who were on the waiting list were allocated plots and now have thriving, productive plots. Most gardeners have been issued keys to the rear brick shed: enabling them to have shelter to meet, socialise and store tools. Guidelines for use of this shed were prepared, and consultation is underway to enable a face to face meeting and working bee to occur on April 16.

• Airport Over Fifties Club at Fulham Vacant plots exist and ongoing discussions are being held about the future of the garden including a possible relocation to a more suitable venue. A meeting was held with members of a local church who are keen to develop a community garden with wicking beds (self-watering gardens beds). They wish to provide these for use by members of their congregation, and residents of the broader local community, as a strategic environmental and social sustainability project.

Walking groups The two walking groups based in Kurralta Park continue to attract new members. The groups plan additional walks to local parks and beaches, during 2015 - generally ending with a shared meal. Planning is underway for two low-key "meet the walkers" events to occur in the 2015/2016 financial year - one in spring 2015, and one in late summer or early autumn 2016, with the view to attracting new members and increasing the awareness of the groups by local residents using a "come and try a walk and join us for a healthy breakfast afterwards" approach. Ready to Work program Australian Refugee Association (ARA) Jobs continues to use the Library Learning Centre to conduct job search programs, while funding exists and subject to market place demand. Council provides the venue and some assistance with program promotion but the bulk of promotional effort is now undertaken by the service providers. Attendance at Plympton Neighbourhood Watch meeting Staff of the Community Development Team attended the March evening meeting of the Plympton Neighbourhood Watch group to promote program offerings scheduled for 2015.

STRATEGY AND COMMUNITY PRESCRIBED STANDING COMMITTEE 21 April 2015 Page 51 Good Neighbour Day Council supported local residents of the Brooklyn Park Neighbourhood Watch group to plan and host a Good Neighbour BBQ on Sunday 29th March, by assisting with printing of promotional material and loan of umbrellas and other equipment, including large games which were very popular with young children. People came with huge saucepans full of pasta: chicken and vegetarian dishes; trays of sweets; and an array of other goodies. Those attending had a great time. Some said that it was great to meet and talk people that they had waved to for years. Others said that they had lived in close proximity to others but had never seen them before. Thanks to Romeo's IGA for donating many loaves of bread for the event. HACC Home and Community Care The Monday Meal group enjoyed a trip to the Broadway Hotel at Glenelg on March 23rd, with 56 people attending. The Matinees and More Group went to the zoo on March 31st. Most of the group had not been to the zoo for many years, the weather was great and everyone enjoyed it. Throughout the January - March 2015, HACC provided 1,272 hours of Domestic Assistance, 177 hours of Social Support, 182 hours of general home maintenance and $6,812 on home modifications (grab rails, key safes etc.). The Administration is continuing to monitor the roll out of Commonwealth Government reforms due to commence in July 2015. To date the regional assessment agency has just been appointed. Uniting Care Wesley has won this contract. Further details and transition arrangements are yet to be forthcoming. So far no information has been made available to existing clients of HACC although staff are providing as much clarity as they are able. It is hoped that by the next month's report more details will be available to Council and the community. OPAL Parks and Places theme Two Autumn Little Days Out are planned with the Children and Youth Team for the term 1 school holidays. These outdoor adventure days will involve nature play activities and community engagement on enhancing nature play in local parks and play spaces. Coordination and partnerships OPAL has engaged the local Girl Guides to plan and maintain five geocaches as part of the Family Geocaching project. Geocaching is high tech treasure hunting using a GPS device or Smartphone. Families will be encouraged to try geocaching at the Autumn Little Day Out events. Policy development As part of the OPAL Sugar Free Junior Sport policy to encourage water and healthy snacks only to be consumed by children during junior sport, OPAL staff and volunteers surveyed parents from Contax Netball Club on their attitudes and behaviours. This information will be collated and provided back to the club to assist policy implementation. Western Youth Centre has also endorsed a Sugar Free Junior Sport policy.

STRATEGY AND COMMUNITY PRESCRIBED STANDING COMMITTEE 21 April 2015 Page 52 In anticipation of the next OPAL theme to encourage healthy drinking habits, OPAL is investigating strategies to create environments that support and encourage breastfeeding. The focus of this project will be displaying nationally-recognised stickers and registering 'Breastfeeding Welcome Here' (BWH) sites at the library and community centres. For each venue to be eligible for BWH, three criteria must be met (1) A welcoming attitude from staff and management (2) A smoke free environment (3) Room to move a pram. OPAL will also investigate developing breastfeeding promotional materials in languages other than English. OPAL held a successful workshop with 11 leadership staff from local education sites to discuss the OPAL Charter and local grants program. The OPAL Charter promotes collaboration and joint action between local organizations to create healthy communities for children. Signing the OPAL Charter demonstrates the commitment of local organizations such as education sites, local businesses, welfare agencies, sporting clubs who are willing to work with OPAL to make it easier for families to eat well and be active in West Torrens. OPAL Volunteers and Student OPAL is recruiting four new volunteers to help to promote healthy and active lifestyles in the local community. A Nutrition and Dietetics student from Flinders University joins the team for a 7 week placement during term 2. 12. MEETING CLOSE
