The information concerns the personal attributes of the person the subject of the complaint and release of such information is unreasonable.

Further, the principle that the meeting should be conducted in a place open to the public has been outweighed in the circumstances because of the public interest in maintaining the confidentiality of the personal affairs of these persons.

Council Agenda Item 10.1 11 June 2019

Item No: 10.1 To: Council Date: 11 June 2019 Submitted by: Councillor Turnbull Subject: USE OF GLYPHOSATE PRODUCTS Attachments: Nil

Motion of Which Notice has been Given

Pursuant to Regulation 12 of the Local Government (Procedures at Meetings) Regulations, 2013, the following Motion on Notice has been submitted by Councillor Turnbull.

Motion:

I, Councillor Turnbull, do hereby give notice of my intention to move the following motion at the next ordinary meeting of Council for the City of Burnside.

That Council prepares a report detailing:

1. The usage of glyphosate herbicide products by Council.

2. What current Risk Assessments have been conducted by Council on glyphosateherbicide products used by Council staff?

3. What control measures are applied in the use of glyphosate herbicides to minimiseexposure both to Council staff and members of the public?

4. Any investigations that have been made by Council into alternative safer methods ofweed control, including scenarios on alternative methods available to Council?

5. Any known actions by other Local Government bodies to limit or control the use ofglyphosate herbicides.

6. What other herbicides are used by Council?

Background:

Glyphosate herbicides such as Roundup have had increasing wide use in our community.

There has been a dramatic shift in the hazard classification of glyphosate, and it is now rated as a Category 2A (probable human) Carcinogen. There has followed an uptake in legal liability cases by employees with chronic health effects claimed to have been caused by exposure to glyphosate. Many jurisdictions, national, state and local, both in Australia and overseas, are reviewing their control and use of glyphosate products.

We have a duty of care both to employees and to the public. It is timely for Council to also review the use of it.

Council Agenda Item 10.2 11 June 2019

Item No: 10.2 To: Council Date: 11 June 2019 Submitted by: Councillor Daws Subject: GLYNBURN ROAD VERGE Attachments: Nil

Motion of Which Notice has been Given

Pursuant to Regulation 12 of the Local Government (Procedures at Meetings) Regulations, 2013, the following Motion on Notice has been submitted by Councillor Daws.

Motion:

I, Councillor Daws, do hereby give notice of my intention to move the following motion at the next ordinary meeting of Council for the City of Burnside.

1. That Project # 63 “Verge Upgrade on Glynburn Road” be withdrawn from the 2019/2020 Budget consideration; and

2. That the Administration develop the verge through operational budgets by re-planting with drought tolerant native plants.

Background:

Following a further review of the verge in question, I believe the Council will be setting a precedent if it proceeds with this $15k upgrade compared to what is financially reasonable for other similar verges/Council areas.

The verge currently has six mature trees including two magnificent gums. It does need some upgrading due to the planting of non-indigenous plants, which distract from the overall ambience of the verge. However, this can be achieved through more cost-effective and plant-efficient means.

Council Agenda Item 13.2 11 June 2019

Background

12. The City of Burnside maintains registers, in accordance with the Local Government Act 1999 (the Act), the Development Act 1993, the Development Regulations 2008 and the Dog and Cat Management Act 1995.

13. The Act requires Council to report annually on a number of registers in the Annual Report, have the registers available to the public on Council’s website and to be available to the public at the Council’s primary office.

14. Attachment A outlines all of the registers which are currently maintained by the Council and are available to the public either on Council’s website or at the Council’s office. Each register is available to the public in accordance with legislative provisions.

15. The Council publishes a Register of Confidential Items on its website, which consists of a summary listing of all of the confidential items which the Council has retained in confidence and any items which have been released from confidence. This register allows community members to determine if a report has been retained in confidence, partially released or fully released.

16. As part of the Review of the items held on the Register of Confidential Items, a Register of Released Confidential Items has been published to increase the transparency regarding the items which have been released from confidence. This will allow the public to easily identify and search for items which are available.

17. The Register of Interest (Staff) is maintained in accordance with s115 of the Act where prescribed officers of the Council complete Primary and Ordinary Returns and submit them to the Chief Executive Officer. This register is available to the Elected Members to inspect. The publication of this register is restricted by s119 Local Government Act.

18. In September 2018, Council requested a further report on additional registers which could be created and released to the public. Further research has been undertaken on the best practice for publishing of different registers providing greater transparency for the community in Council’s operations.

19. While already fully complying with legislation and minimum requirements there are a small amount of registers which the Council can resolve to create and publish to the community increasing transparency and accountability to the community.

Register of Overseas and Interstate Travel

20. A Register of Overseas and Interstate Travel can be introduced which covers both Council Members and Council Employees. There is a growing trend for Councils to publish the costs involved with Council Members and Staff travelling for council business.

21. The reporting of these expenses is voluntary and is not a legislative requirement and is a proactive choice the Council can make to increase transparence around Council operations, noting that these expenses and costs incurred are overly minimal.

22. The Local Government Association (LGA) has developed templates for the disclosure of this information in an effort to create a standard approach to assist in providing consistent reporting across the sector. The Registers presented in Attachments B and C to this report, are based on the LGA templates and are provided to members to demonstrate the information which will be disclosed to the public.

23. The Council Member register (Attachment B) will disclose the name of the Council Member travelling, the date(s), purpose and destination of the travel, total cost

37

Page 38: Notice of Council Meeting - Home - City of Burnside...2019/06/11  · Council Agenda 11 June 2019 Notice of Council Meeting NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN in accordance with Sections 83 and

Council Agenda Item 13.2 11 June 2019

(including meals, conference fees, reimbursements made to the Member etc, made in accordance with the Council Policy) and will provide details of the Council decision or approval to participate in the travel. This information will also be included in the Council’s Annual Report and managed by the Office of the Chief Executive Officer.

24. Historically, from an Elected Member point, there has only been one annual trip (National General Assembly in Canberra) for which the Mayor and CEO are delegates.

25. The Council Staff register (Attachment C) will disclose the position title of each person travelling, dates, destination, purpose of the travel and the total cost.

26. It is proposed, that if the registers are introduced, that they will be aligned to each financial year and will commence from the start of the 2019/20 financial year.

27. The introduction of the register will need to be included in the next review of the Elected Member Training and Development Policy which will occur in the second part of 2019.

28. There would be no changes to the existing approval mechanisms for undertaking such travel.

Register of Council Member Training

29. A number of South Australian Councils publish a register of Council Member Training and provide links to any reports that the Members may have provided. This includes any training provided to the Council Members as a whole and individually, and may encompass both mandatory and non-mandatory topics.

30. The publishing of this information is voluntary and unlike the disclosure of the Overseas and Interstate Travel the LGA does not provide a template. The publishing of this register would provide additional information regarding the amounts listed in the existing Register of Allowances and Benefits which is available on Council’s website and updated quarterly.

31. The information included in the Register of Council Member Training (Attachment D) would also be included in the Council’s Annual Report.

32. If this register is introduced the Register of Council Member Training will be aligned with each financial year and will commence from the start of the new Elected Member Term, being November 2018. The introduction of the register will need to be included in the next review of the Elected Member Training and Development Policy which will occur in the second part of 2019. The register will be coordinated by the Office of the Chief Executive Officer and updated periodically.

Credit Card Transactions Report

33. The publication of a monthly Credit Card transactions report is currently being developed and will be made available on Council’s website.

34. It is currently anticipated that the Credit Card Report will be published on Council’s website at the commencement of the new financial year or soon thereafter.

Register of Protocols

35. The Register of Protocols is an internal listing of all of the Protocols and internal Procedures used by Administration. This is a tracking table which allows Council staff to monitor and ensure that the protocols, procedures and guidelines used by Council staff to perform their roles are current.

38

Page 39: Notice of Council Meeting - Home - City of Burnside...2019/06/11  · Council Agenda 11 June 2019 Notice of Council Meeting NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN in accordance with Sections 83 and

Council Agenda Item 13.2 11 June 2019

36. Currently, there is no value to the community in publishing this listing. As a result of, this report and a review of this listing, the name of this document will be changed to a tracking table as the purpose and use of this listing is to ensure that following a change to a council policy the supporting protocols, procedures and guidelines are updated.

Elected Member Code of Conduct Register

37. Currently, the Principal Executive Officer maintains a Register of Code of Conduct Complaints which, to all intents and purposes, is used solely as a tracking table internally to manage each complaint and track costs incurred within the timeframes outlined in the Council’s Code of Conduct Complaint Handling Procedure.

38. Prior to April 2018, this table included any Code of Conduct Complaints which were received regarding the Chief Executive Officer under the Council Staff Code of Conduct. Given the changes made by the Minister for Local Government and the introduction of a new Code of Conduct for Council Employees, coupled with the repeal of the former Code and a new local Complaints Policy established, this tracking table will no longer contain information regarding the Chief Executive Officer.

39. At this time, there is no requirement for Council to compile and maintain a Register of Code of Conduct Complaints.

40. It is proposed that, rather than publish another separate register, Code of Conduct Complaints continue to be made publically accessible once released from confidence and as required by legislation, which will occur as follows:

40.1. Code of Conduct Complaints under Part 2 of the Code (Behavioural) will be released through the provision of the report to a public meeting of council and once Council has made a final determination on the complaint.

40.2. Code of Conduct Complaints under Part 3 of the Code (Misconduct) will only become public once:

40.2.1. the Ombudsman has issued his final report which has been considered by the Council at a public meeting; or

40.2.2. the OPI or ICAC issues a public statement or gives permission for publication of its findings in relation to a matter within its jurisdiction to be made public.

Conclusion

41. The Council currently maintains a number of public registers which meets its legislative requirements.

42. The publication of the proposed registers for Overseas and Interstate Travel, Elected Member Training and Development and Credit Card Transactions are not required by legislation and are a proactive choice by the Council to increase transparency and accountability of Council operations.

RE: Draft Budget 2019/ 2020

The Board of HLA has reviewed the draft Budget 2019/2020 and agreed to refer it to Member Councils for their approval pursuant to Clause 4.4 of the HLA Charter.

Member Councils are required to approve the draft Budget prior to the Board formally adopting the Budget by the 30th June 2019. The draft Budget is attached at Appendix 1 and for your information I provide a brief outline of the expenditure included in the budget and annual plan.

The Future of the Highbury Landfill

As resolved last year the board of HLA has conducted an Australian wide Expression of Interest (E0I) to test the market with an overall objective of ongoing responsible management of the closed landfill with reduced costs for Member Councils. The outcome from this process is that the Board is assessing an option to generate solar power on the Highbury Landfill that will provide a revenue stream for HLA and its Member Councils.

Recommendations on the way forward will be provided by the Board to Member Councils later in the new financial year. The draft budget covers the cost of further assessment of this opportunity. Provision

The 25 year forward projections that make up the calculation for the provision in the Balance Sheet for HLA is provided with the draft Budget. The provision has been calculated as per the provision calculation spreadsheet used for the 2017/18 Financial Statements. This provision calculation was assessed by an independent consultant at the end of last year and the budget for the coming financial year is as per those projections without any amendment. The 10-year bond rates have not been updated and are as at 30 June 2018.
