    02/15.6.1 Better Utilise the Fingal Council Depot

    ACTION INFORMATION PROPONENT Residents

    OFFICER John Brown, General Manager

    FILE REFERENCE 004\004\001\

    ASSOCIATED REPORTS AND DOCUMENTS

    Petition

    The petition was received as follows: “We, the electors of the Break O’Day Municpal Area, petition the Councillors in accordance with Section 57 of the Local Government Act 1993 to: Better utilise the Fingal Depot by starting Council workers from the depot to alleviate the cost of travelling and to maximise the total work time allocated to Fingal, Mangana and Mathinna. This would also allow access to Council assistance during times of disaster, eg flood or fire.” OFFICER’S RECOMMENDATION: That Council receive the petition and advise that Management will investigation future operational service levels. OFFICER’S REPORT: The petition has been lodged by Mr John Partington and Ms Michelle Carin and is not in accordance with Section 57 of the Local Government Act 1993. The total number of signatories required under Section 57 of the Local Government Act 1993 is “5% of the electors of the Municipal area or 1,000 of those electors whichever is the lesser”. The current number is 5,463 on the electoral roll or 273 for the 5%. There were a total of 153 signatories on the petition with the above statement. Due to the number of signatories on the petition a cross check with the electoral role was not undertaken as it would still not have met the requirements of Section 57 of the Local Government Act 1993.

    02/15.7.0 NOTICES OF MOTION

    02/15.7.1 Notice of Motion – Moulting Bay Jetty – Clr G McGuinness MOTION: A report is sought providing advice in accordance with the requirements of Section 65 of the Local Government Act 1993 for the information of Council at a future meeting and consider any advice as required from relevant State Agencies. That Council seek a report exploring another avenue for replacing the condemned Moulting Bay Jetty. SUBMISSION IN SUPPORT OF MOTION: Council recently agreed not to pursue the replacement of the Moulting Bay Jetty due to the large quoted cost and its apparent lack of importance. Firstly it needs to be pointed out that this jetty is the only calm water jetty on the Binalong Bay side of the George River. In times of flood it has been used extensively for ferrying both people and materials between Binalong Bay and St. Helens. It could be the difference between life and death in an emergency situation. A figure of approx. $150,000 was quoted as a replacement cost of a conventional jetty. Preliminary investigations would indicate that a rock wall causeway of approximately 30m and capable of carrying a vehicle could be built for approx. $20,000. A few piles and a floating pontoon could then be added at the end. It is not known what this would cost but it is understood that there may be some second hand pontoons available at the Launceston Council. All this is possible due to the shallow water and relative calmness of the location.

    02/15.7.2 Notice of Motion – Musselroe Bay to St Helens Road Sealing Proposal – Clr J McGiveron

    MOTION: A report is sought providing advice in accordance with the requirements of Section 65 of the Local Government Act 1993 for the information of Council at a future meeting and consider any advice as required from relevant State Agencies. 1 That Break O’Day Council combine with Tasman, Sorell, Glamorgan Spring Bay and

    Dorset Councils to officially support the sealing and upgrade of all sections of gravel road from Port Arthur to Bridport. This will complete the total link for the Great Eastern Drive.

    2 Break O’Day Council to commit to a budget amount to be determined with the

    neighbouring Councils to fund a steering committee made up of representatives from each Council. Maximum figure not to exceed $20,000.

    SUBMISSION IN SUPPORT OF MOTION: Following the meeting with the neighbouring Councils on Monday it was agreed by all present that the project with the support of all East Coast Councils would complete the link for the Great Eastern Drive and provide the best chance of securing the Federal funding required as a major infrastructure Australia project. The project has full support from the East Coast Regional Tourism Organisation (ECRTO). This project would complete the link from Port Arthur to Bridport and beyond.

  • | 02/15.7.3 Notice of Motion – Esk Highway – Clr M Osborne 22

    02/15.7.3 Notice of Motion – Esk Highway – Clr M Osborne MOTION: A report is sought providing advice in accordance with the requirements of Section 65 of the Local Government Act 1993 for the information of Council at a future meeting and consider any advice as required from relevant State Agencies. That the Mayor speak to the Minister for infrastructure regarding investigating passing lanes on the Esk Highway. SUBMISSION IN SUPPORT OF MOTION: I was asked to bring this forward by a ratepayer saying it is getting harder and harder driving from Launceston to St Helens.

  • | 02/15.7.4 Notice of Motion – Request for BBQ at Stieglitz – Clr M Osborne 23

    02/15.7.4 Notice of Motion – Request for BBQ at Stieglitz – Clr M Osborne

    MOTION: A report is sought providing advice in accordance with the requirements of Section 65 of the Local Government Act 1993 for the information of Council at a future meeting and consider any advice as required from relevant State Agencies. That we include the building of the BBQ at Stieglitz in our budget deliberations cost is $22,000. SUBMISSION IN SUPPORT OF MOTION: I have been in consultation with the progress association for about 12 months now. There is money in the public open space accounts of Stieglitz and Helens to do this project as we have a focus on tourism this fits in well.

  • | 02/15.8.1 The Bridge at The Flat, St Marys – Clr J Drummond 24

    02/15.8.0 COUNCILLOR’S QUESTIONS ON NOTICE

    02/15.8.1 The Bridge at The Flat, St Marys – Clr J Drummond Is the bridge at The Flat in St Marys crossing the St Marys Rivulet, just off the Esk Highway, scheduled for repair? It is reported to have deteriorated in the last six (6) months. Bolts are now lifted from the bridge timbers causing a potential risk of damage to vehicle tyres and there is movement in the bridge timbers themselves. Reply The bridge is part of the 2014/2015 Bridge Replacement Program and is scheduled to be replaced towards mid June 2015. Council staff will inspect the bridge and make safe.

    02/15.8.2 Cornwall Coal Redundancies – Clr H Rubenach To The Mayor, What have been the outcomes so far from the contacts made to politicians regarding the community's social and economic impacts arising from the Fingal Mine redundancies? Have there been any commitments from the government to recognise these community impacts? Reply Council has made numerous contacts with Government Departments and Politicians in regard to the Fingal Mine Redundancies. While we have continued to follow this up it was also raised on Monday 2 February at the full Cabinet meeting with Council. Whilst Council has been pushing the issue we have had no formal response in regard to how they will help outside of normal support agencies.

    02/15.9.0 COUNCILLOR’S QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE Regulation 29 of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2005 specifies that in putting a Question Without Notice a Councillor must not offer an argument or opinion, draw any inference or make any imputations except so far as may be necessary to explain the question. The Chairperson must not permit any debate of a Question without Notice or its answer.
