CHILD, YOUTH AND FAMILY PLAN cont’d BACKGROUND Council’s Municipal Early Years Plan (0 – 8yrs) has expired and development has progressed on a new plan for the municipality. Council has a key legislated role in working with local stakeholders to plan for their municipality. The plan is based on State and Federal government frameworks, current policy direction, best practice, current literature and local benchmarking and needs analysis. In consultation with key internal and external stakeholders, the scope of the Plan has been widened to extend the age range to include 0 -25 years aligning to current best practice. This will allow the new Plan to be more effective and efficient across the early years and youth age continuum, with the new plan titled Child, Youth and Family Plan 2016 – 2020 (the Plan). The Plan has been developed under a governance structure consisting of an internal and external stakeholder working group representing key members from Maternal and Child Health, Early Childhood services, Youth and Community Partnerships; other early years and youth sector non-government organisations and agencies, including the disability sector and members of the Early Years Advisory Network. Community feedback also came in the form of surveys and information gathered at festivals and events and final feedback from a public release of the draft document. The Plan articulates high level strategic direction for programs, services and the Banyule community. The actions will form the basis of organisational strategies that can be adopted by both internal and external groups, networks and relevant sectors. This creates opportunities for: • • • •

Municipal wide shared approach/responsibility Multidisciplinary collaboration Bridge the gap between early years and youth Common language and shared understanding

Child, Youth and Family Plan Key Objectives 1.

DRAFT BANYULE TENNIS STRATEGY cont’d A movement away from traditional weekend competition formats has resulted in many local clubs and associations struggling to retain and attract participants, creating the need for a collaborative approach to future integrated strategies. The Banyule Tennis Strategy investigates the issues and opportunities facing tennis at a local level, utilising the knowledge and resources from Council and local clubs. Further information has been provided by Tennis Australia (TA) and Tennis Victoria (TVIC) to help shape the future direction of tennis in Banyule. LEGAL CONSIDERATION There are no direct legal implications arising from the recommendation contained in this report. HUMAN RIGHTS CHARTER Victoria's Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities (the Charter) outlines the basic human rights of all people in Victoria. The Charter requires that governments, local councils and other public authorities comply with Charter and to consider relevant Charter rights when they make decisions. In developing this report to Council, the subject matter has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities. It is considered that the subject matter does not raise any human rights issues. CURRENT SITUATION The Draft Banyule Tennis Strategy (Attachment One) suggests how the City of Banyule along with sport, community and private sector partners, can collectively support participation opportunities and improve the sustainability and access to tennis facilities across the municipality. This Draft Strategy has been prepared following a review of all relevant sport and government literature, local demographics, club membership numbers, and a supply and demand assessment and facility auditing. A tennis club survey and the outcomes of a targeted tennis forum has also helped to identify key issues and future program, management and development opportunities. The Draft Strategy has been prepared and the key themes discussed throughout the document are aligned with Tennis Victoria’s key pillars for a successful tennis venue: • • • •

Accessibility Sustainability Community benefit Accountability

The proposed implementation schedule has been developed to not only assist Council but also Tennis Victoria, local tennis clubs and community stakeholders to prioritise and allocate appropriate resources and work collaboratively.

DRAFT BANYULE TENNIS STRATEGY cont’d FUNDING IMPLICATIONS The draft Strategy suggests Council consider an annual allocation of $50,000 within its future capital works budgets to assist Clubs with the upgrade of existing tennis infrastructure on Council owned land. The strategy also suggests that Council and Clubs work in partnership to attract additional funding to support infrastructure upgrade via Tennis Australia’s Court Rebate Scheme and the State Government. CONSULTATION During the strategy review, targeted consultation with Tennis Clubs was undertaken. This included an online survey to all Tennis Clubs, a Tennis Forum held in December 2015 and the establishment of a Community Reference Group. The Community Reference Group included an Expression of Interest process and all Tennis Clubs were invited to nominate a representative. Six clubs nominated a representative who met with staff in May to review the Issues and Options Paper. Feedback for the Community Reference Group has been considered during the preparation of the draft strategy. The draft strategy is now ready for the final consultation phase and assuming Council adopt the draft master plan for the purpose of public consultation, officers will invite community members to submit written submissions in relation to the draft strategy. TIMELINES It is proposed that the draft strategy be released for final consultation and comment from the 12 July – 9 August 2016. A further report will be provided following the consultation period. OFFICER DECLARATION OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST Section 80C of the Local Government Act 1989 (Act) requires members of Council staff, and persons engaged under contract to provide advice to Council, to disclose any direct or indirect interest in a matter to which the advice relates. Council officers involved in the preparation of this report have no conflict of interest in this matter. CONCLUSION The Draft Banyule Tennis Strategy builds on existing strategic planning and directions developed through Council’s previous strategic document relating to Tennis and also considered best practice approaches form the industry. The draft strategy provides direction and identified key requirements for tennis over the next ten years and established a framework for provision that ensures the long term sustainability of tennis clubs, programs and competitions.

PUBLIC OPEN SPACE PLAN

Author:

Jeff Parkes - Open Space Planning Co-Ordinator, Assets & City Services

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The draft Public Open Space Plan was prepared following extensive public consultation, includes a series of strategic actions that are intended to guide Council’s decision making in relation to public open over the next 15 years and includes an open space levy analysis. The draft Public Open Space Plan was placed on public exhibition on16 May and was exhibited until 20 June following consideration by Council at its meeting of 9 May 2016. RECOMMENDATION That Council: 1.

Adopt the Public Open Space Plan.

2.

Supports the preparation and exhibition of Amendment C111 to the Banyule Planning Scheme to specify a 5% municipal wide contribution rate in the schedule to Clause 52.01.

3.

Requests the Minister for Planning authorise the preparation and exhibition of Amendment C111.

CITY PLAN This report is in line with Council’s City Plan key direction to “promote and support health and wellbeing”.

PUBLIC OPEN SPACE PLAN cont’d The aim of the review is to produce a plan which will guide Council’s decision making in relation to public open space provision for the next 15 years, during which time significant growth in population, accompanied by an increase in population density, is expected to continue to occur though out Banyule, but more intensely in a number of selected areas in particular. Importance of Public Open Space There is an abundance of research, both in Australia and internationally, which confirms the important role green public open space has in the physical and mental health and wellbeing of urban communities. This research indicates that the majority of health problems society will face, now and into the future, are likely to be stress related illnesses, mental health problems and cardiovascular health problems. There is a growing body of research that indicates that to access green open spaces, be it for experiencing the natural environment, community based activities, or structured or unstructured physical activity, enhances physical and mental health and helps reduce the risk of chronic diseases. Policy Context In preparing this strategy, due consideration was given to strategic directions championed by the Banyule City Plan, Council’s existing Public Open Space Strategy, the Banyule Recreation Plan and Banyule’s draft Playspace Strategy, as well as the State Government’s “Plan Melbourne Refresh 2016” document and the Metropolitan Planning Authority’s draft Public Open Space Strategy. The Public Open Space Strategy has strong connections to the overall Banyule City Plan 2013-2017 at a number of levels. The stated vision of the City Plan is Banyule, a green, liveable and prosperous city, sustaining a healthy and engaged community. This is extremely compatible with the vision, guiding principle and Objectives of the Public Open Space Plan. Ensuring Banyule has good quality accessible public open space available, now and into the future for all of its residents is supported by one of the City Plan’s fundamental principles; i.e. Community Health Wellbeing. It is also supported by a number of elements within of the City Plan’s key directions: • • •

Place – “Enhance Banyule’s public open spaces” Planet- “Protect and enhance our natural environment” People – “Promote and support health and wellbeing”

Vision and Six Pillars Guiding Principle - The overall guiding principle of the plan is “Community Health and Wellbeing.” Research throughout the world recognises the significant health benefits regular exposure to natural phenomena such as trees, plants and grass brings to humans. Visiting public open space is often the only regular opportunity many city dwellers have to experience such natural phenomena. In addition public open space provides opportunities for health giving passive and active recreation. The plan also recognises the importance play has in the health and wellbeing on the community generally, as well as in the physical, social and psychological development of children specifically.

PUBLIC OPEN SPACE PLAN cont’d Vision - A green City that provides high quality, sustainable, accessible and well maintained public open space within a 5 minute walk for residents The Six Pillars of Open Space (Objectives) - The Guiding Principle and Vision are supported by six objectives. These objectives replicate the six pillars which form the basis for the draft Melbourne Metropolitan Public Open Space Strategy which is currently being prepared by the Metropolitan Planning Authority. These are: • • • • • •

Quantity Quality Accessibility & Connectivity Equitable distribution Diversity Sustainably

Pubic Consultation The draft Public Open Space Plan has been shaped by public input and local expertise over the last 12 months. A range of community engagement strategies were used during the initial consultation phase in order to ensure that the Plan reflects community views and needs. A summary of the engagement strategies used is as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Community on-line survey Interviews/surveys at Malahang & Banyule Festivals Community Workshops (2) Youth Workshops (3) Community Reference Group Council Reference Groups: (a) Multi-Cultural Reference Group (b) Disability Reference Group (c) GLBTI Reference Group (d) Age Friendly Reference Group (e) Internal Reference Group (relevant Council staff) (f) The Banyule Environment Advisory Committee (g) The Banyule Bicycle Advisory Committee

Public Exhibition Phase Following the Council meeting 9 May 2016, the Plan was placed on public exhibition. The public exhibition phase included: • • • •

Placing the Plan on Council’s website between 16 May and 20 June, together with a community comments form which could be completed online. The option of lodging written submissions was also provided. Conducting two community workshops Workshops were also conducted with the Banyule Environment Advisory Committee, the Banyule Bicycle Advisory Committee, the Rosanna Parklands Advisory Committee and the Open Space Plan Community Reference Group.

The revised version of the Public Open Space Plan is attached (refer Attachment 1).

PUBLIC OPEN SPACE PLAN cont’d Comments Received Overall the draft Plan has received a favourable response from the community. In all 22 online comments forms were completed and a further 21 written submissions were received. Some of the comments were about single specific issues and other were quite complex covering a range of issues. A number of comments received were directly related to the Plan, but others were either more relevant to other Council plans and policies, or were of an operational nature. There were a number of comments requesting an emphasis on the environment and there was a strong response from local horse riders requesting Banyule do something about providing riding trails and better access to the local community horse riding facilities, particularly in the more rural parts of the municipality. A number of comments also relate to the status and security of land, which has a public open space related classification and to land which has a different classification, but is currently either used as public open space, or could potentially be. The view has been expressed that land in these categories, if retained, could form an important part of Banyule’s open space network and help address demand likely to be created by the projections of population and residential density growth for Banyule. A summary of the comments received is attached in the appended comments table (Attachment 2). There was also some concern expressed that Council may have reduced the overall quantity of open space since the adoption of the previous Public Open Space Strategy in 2007. However an initial analysis of land disposal and acquisition indicates there has actually been a net gain in public open space for that period. It is expected that this matter will be the subject of a separate more detailed Council report in the near future. In addition to this, Council has also invested millions of dollars over the same period in developing community facilities in public open space, such as upgrading and expanding the Banyule Shared Trail Network, developing regional family playspaces at Malahang Reserve Warringal Park, Binnak Park and Anthony Beal Reserve, extending upgrading numerous sporting pavilions, planting thousands of trees in bushland areas and other reserves and renewing dozens of local playgrounds. The Public Open Space Plan Community Reference Group was established to assist and provide advice to Council in developing the Public Open Space Plan. One of its suggestions is that Council continue to convene the Group following the adoption of the Plan, so that it can assist by providing advice to Council with the on-going implementation of the Plan. This also aligns with several comments received from individuals during the public exhibition phase that a Parks and or public open space advisory committee be established by Council to assist by providing advice with ongoing implementation of the Plan. Given the scope and breadth of issues the Public Open Space Plan, the overall feedback received during the community engagement process was very positive.

PUBLIC OPEN SPACE PLAN cont’d Challenges The Plan identifies a number of future challenges for Council in relation to public open space provision: •

• •

Population growth & residential density - particularly as a number of areas within Banyule have been identified by the State Government’s “Plan Melbourne Refreshed 2016 Report for increased residential density and higher population. Climate change – Melbourne’s weather patterns have been trending for some time towards a warmer drier climate with more extreme weather events. Barriers to Access – Banyule has a number of significant barriers that limit access to public open space. These barriers include major roads, the Melbourne Hurstbridge railway line, as well as a number of significant river and creek corridors. Cost of land – The high cost of land in Banyule will make it increasingly expensive to purchase in order to create new public open space should this be required. The challenge for Banyule is to identify creative ways to address this issue. Environment – The potential for urban encroachment and predictions of harsher climate conditions will provide future challenges to Banyule to protect and enhance natural areas and native habitat.

Opportunities The Plan also identifies a range of opportunities for increasing and/or improving public open space and community access to it: •

• •

Community use agreements – There are a significant number of schools in Banyule, as well as land owned by a range of other public authorities, where joint community use arrangements could potentially be negotiated in order to add to the quantity of public open space in Banyule where and when required. Road and/or intersection closures – there are opportunities to potentially create new open space by utilising road reserves, wide nature strips and in some instances through road and/or intersection closures. This has been successfully achieved in other cities around the world and there are some local examples in the Cities of Melbourne, Yarra and Maribyrnong. Joint Projects – There are potential opportunities to work with neighbouring Councils and other public authorities controlling public open space, such as Latrobe University and Parks Victoria to improve the quantity and quality of public open space and associated facilities available for the benefit of Banyule residents. Pop up parks – There are opportunities to create short term temporary parks and/or public urban spaces intermittently, for specific periods of time or for special events. Trail Connectivity – There are opportunities to improve access by strengthen the connectivity of the Banyule Shared Trail Network with broader Metropolitan Trails Network.

PUBLIC OPEN SPACE PLAN cont’d Public Open Space Levy A report on an Open Space Levy for Banyule has also been exhibited as part of the Public Open Space Plan Technical Report. The Open Space Levy Report, with the support of the Public Open Space Plan, will form the basis of the introduction of a fixed open space levy rate into the Banyule Planning Scheme. Introducing a Public Open Space Levy into the Banyule planning Scheme Banyule City Council currently relies on the provisions of the Subdivision Act when requesting open space contributions. Council uses a policy to guide the collection of 5% of land value contributions for public open space. A priority implementation item for the Public Open Space Plan is securing an appropriate, specified public open space contribution rate in the Banyule Planning Scheme. Planning Scheme Amendment C111 will provide the statutory tool by which Council requests open space contributions. This assists Council to plan and allocate resources to public open space provision and improvements, as described in the Public Open Space Plan. It also gives developers more certainty as they can factor the cost into feasibility assessments. An investigation has been done to determine an appropriate contribution rate and is contained in an Open Space Levy Report which forms part of the Open Space Plan Technical Report. This has been circulated separately to Councillors and made available on the Council website. The report concludes that the most appropriate approach is a single municipal-wide flat rate of 5% (of site value cash payment) public open space contribution. Amendment C111 will replace the schedule to Clause 52.01 with a new schedule (Attachment 3) which requires an open space contribution, of a flat rate of 5% for all commercial, residential and industrial subdivisions greater than two lots. Exhibition of Planning Scheme Amendment C111 Exhibition of Planning Scheme Amendment C111 will involve the following measures: • • • • • •

Letters to prescribed Ministers, as per the Planning and Environment Act. Advertising in local Leader Newspapers and the Government Gazette Information on Council website Opportunities for meeting with interested parties Information Session Notices at Council Service Centres

LEGAL CONSIDERATION Should Council adopt the Open Space Plan, it can then make progress to implement the plan into the Banyule Planning Scheme. This can be done by using the provisions of the Planning and Environment Act 1987 to request the Minister for Planning's authorisation for a planning scheme amendment proposal. The proposal can pursue a specified 5% of land value collection rate from land subdivisions, to help fund future open space works that are aligned with the adopted plan. Including a specified rate in the Banyule Planning Scheme will improve transparency for Council's current policy practice that has had interim, transitional effect since Council's resolution.

Planet – Environmental Sustainability

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The residents of the City of Banyule are fortunate to live, work and play in a green and leafy municipality. The green spaces have an important role for natural biodiversity, public health and wellbeing. Our trees and open spaces contribute to the community wellbeing by providing areas for recreation, relaxation, and contact with nature, crucial habitat for fauna, flora and respite from the urban heat island effect in summer. Banyule City Council has a long and proud history of supporting and undertaking activities and programs that benefit our environment. Our reserves, parks, and linear corridors are populated with trees, shrubs and ground covers as a direct result of the toil and effort of council and community members. Significant greening activities occur annually by council staff and community members resulting many thousands of plants being planted within our parks and streets. This report recognises that there is an opportunity to herald and promote the works through a variety of communication channels. Further it is important that the community is informed on the progress against predetermined greening targets. RECOMMENDATION That: 1.

GREENING BANYULE cont’d BACKGROUND The Banyule community are fortunate to live, work and play in a green and leafy municipality. The community continually provides positive feedback to Councillors and Officers on the value provided by the green open spaces and extensive population of trees within the City. This report will provide details of what Council has in place to demonstrate the multi-faceted commitment to the ongoing greening of the City. Further, this report will inform what actions and strategies will be adopted to ensure the community is aware of the green initiatives undertaken by Council and the community Council, at its meeting on 3 August 2015 resolved: “That a report be prepared for Council consideration on current and proposed initiatives as a consequence of the adoption of the Urban Forest Plan and other planting activities undertaken within the municipality for “Greening Banyule”. The report should consider the following: • • • • •

The development of the “Greening Banyule” brand with the associated signage and supporting materials Opportunities for improved promotion of Council’s greening activities The creation of annual planting targets with a ten year outlook The opportunity to develop a resident data base for communication of greening events and distribution of Council greening publications The development of partnerships with other organisations to achieve the proposed planting targets.”

LEGAL CONSIDERATION There are no direct legal implications arising from the recommendation contained in this report. HUMAN RIGHTS CHARTER Victoria's Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities (the Charter) outlines the basic human rights of all people in Victoria. The Charter requires that governments, local councils and other public authorities comply with Charter and to consider relevant Charter rights when they make decisions. In developing this report to Council, the subject matter has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities. It is considered that the subject matter does not raise any human rights issues. FUNDING IMPLICATIONS Funding for trees and plants is accommodated in both capital and operational budgets, which cumulatively totals approximately $ 200,000.00 per annum. This funding level is sufficient to support the current programs.

GREENING BANYULE cont’d DISCUSSION Council maintains over 700 hectares of public open space. The spaces contribute to the community wellbeing by providing areas for recreation, relaxation, and contact with nature, crucial habitat for fauna, flora and respite from the urban heat island effect in summer. Residents appreciate the network of open spaces and are generally highly appreciative of the quality and quantity within the City. This view is strongly supported by recent feedback received by Council as part of the review of the Council Open Space Plan. Council’s Public Open Space Plan is complimented by the recently adopted Banyule Urban Forest Plan. The Urban Forest Plan recognises the numerous benefits provided by Banyule’s tree population. A key objective of the Urban Forest Plan is to ensure that 4000 trees are planted annually within our parks and streets. Trees on public land contribute towards the attainment of Council’s vision of a “green and leafy” city. Banyule canopy cover on both private and public land has been measured at 29%, planting additional street and park trees will assist to increase Council’s coverage. Council has a long and proud history of supporting and undertaking activities and programs that benefit our environment. Our reserves, parks, and linear corridors are populated with trees, shrubs and ground covers as a direct result of the toil and effort of council and community members. Council supports numerous Friends Groups in planning activities that facilitate biodiversity through the constant development and green renewal of our parklands. Annually many thousands of plants are planted across the municipality in parks, streets and commercial centres. The environmental commitment also extends to Council’s management and leadership team who recently planted 1800 indigenous plants along the Darebin Creek corridor as part of an annual planting session that takes place across the city.

GREENING BANYULE cont’d There are many challenges in the establishment of newly planted plants. Pest infestation, disease, vermin, vandalism and extreme climate events to mention a few. To ensure that plants have the greatest opportunity for success, planting occurs in the cooler months. The planting season commences in April, and concludes in late September. This window provides the best establishment period for plants as weather conditions tend to be cool and moist. Newly planted plants are mulched with material generated from Council’s tree maintenance works. The mulch aids with the retention of moisture and weed suppression in the warmer months which increase survival rates. Council staff provide a range of maintenance services during the warmer months to assist in plant survival. In garden bed areas and plotted plantings weed management programs are initiated to reduce competition. Supplementary watering also occurs to assist plants through extreme heat events. Newly planted street trees are provided with a Water Well, the Water Well maximises available water to the trees root system. Newly planted trees generally require two years of regular watering before becoming more self-reliant. Officers are considering an opportunity for residents to receive a new tree with a plastic bucket and an information flyer that contains care information. This is intended to provide residents with tree related facts, promote ownership and encourage residents to care for newly planted trees which ultimately results in greater survival rates of newly planted street trees. COMMUNICATION AND PROMOTION Banyule City Council has strong credentials for the delivery of services and projects. In many cases the community is not aware of the programs and services provided by Council. In recent times, Council has developed a distinct brand for civil projects called “Building a Better Banyule”. The brand communicates the value provided to the community for Council’s capital expenditure project. To complement the “Building a Better Banyule” brand a “Greening Banyule” Icon has been developed as depicted in figure 1.2.

GREENING BANYULE cont’d The “Greening Banyule” brand has many potential applications. It will be used on portable signage, banners and flags to promote community planting events and general working bees. The use of portable “A” frame board style advertisements will signal to the local community that planting will occur and will communicate dates and times. The brand will be used as a decal on vehicles where staff and contractors are engaged in planting or maintenance works. It will be used in promotional material provided to residents regarding street tree planting or community planting events. The brand can also be used in email signatures for the Parks and Gardens staff and the Environmental Team to commutate Council’s commitment to greening the City. The brand has a multitude of applications on Council’s various web and social media platforms for the purpose of highlighting greening activities. It is intended that the brand will also be used on buckets that will be provided to residents for tree watering as depicted in figure 1.3. Other environmentally friendly materials will also be sought, such as screen printed hessian tree ties.

Figure 1.3 The Banyule Banner is a well-established community publication. The broad and regular distribution ensures that the community can access information regarding greening activities. It is anticipated to include the new brand and provide graphical cumulative information on Council’s progress in the number of plants planted throughout the planting season in future editions. The Banner regularly contains articles relating to greening initiatives. The current edition will have a feature spread on the important work Banyule and the community is undertaking in greening Council’s open spaces, it also features the newly developed Greening Banyule brand. It is also possible to feature Friends Groups in future editions to promote the work that they have undertaken and potentially increase the Group’s membership by encouraging other likeminded members to join. Council currently does not have a single facility for the community to register interest receiving greening related information. The data bases that do exist are not integrated. The largest data base contains an emailing list of 800 people who receive the Council-produced Green Wrap publication. Currently a number of friends groups develop information flyers for dispersal amongst members of their groups. The development of a subscription based service may assist in creating a broader dispersal mechanism for interested community members in a cost effective manner. Information regarding planting events as depicted in figure 1.4 could be provided to those who are interested in receiving the information.

Ordinary Meeting of Council - 11 July 2016

GREENING BANYULE cont’d Further investigation is required as to what model is the most appropriate to circulate information. Council has the necessary information technology infrastructure and applications to support such an initiative, but a review of the capability of the web site and social media platforms and impact on Council resources is required.

Figure 1.4 GREENING ACTIVITIES Apart from Council’s routine parks maintenance activities, the Parks Bushland Unit has supported 61 community working bees in Bushland Reserves throughout the year, with an average of 12 volunteers per event which includes activities such as planting, bush regeneration works, hand weeding, wildflower walks, approximately 20,000 indigenous tube stock were planted across the bush reserves of Banyule. This is higher than the average number planted which is generally closer to 15000 per annum. There are many variables that effect the number of plants in a particular year this includes; climate condition, funding, site constraints and availability of resources to undertake the works. This work increases and maintains floristic values and native vegetation cover whilst reducing weed cover in these reserves. However, it should be noted that the Bushland team also undertake works with friends group in bushland regeneration. This work entails creating environmental conditions the enable the native flora seed banks in the remanent reserves to selfpopulate. This requires undertaking weed control and the use fire management to stimulate germination of native seed. Over 5000 plants and bulbs have been used to renew garden beds in traffic treatments, war memorials and commercial centres. Council staff have deposited over 3000 cubic metres of mulch on garden beds across the city. Council has also supported training opportunities provided to local Work for the Dole participants. The works undertaken by Work for the Dole participants included undertaking garden bed renovation works at Binnak Park. Further work is proposed at Binnak Park to undertake planting in the renovated garden beds.

GREENING BANYULE cont’d A National Tree Day (2015) event was conducted at Rosanna Parklands using advanced trees. The Parks service is in the process of planting 4000 trees in council streets and parks for the current 2016 planting season. In residential streets preference is given to those that request a street tree. Opportunities for developing avenue plantings are also initiated. Occasionally Officers are ask to comply with requests not to plant trees by residents. When this occurs the tree are allocated to alternative locations. The Clean Up Australia Day 2016 engaged 74 Volunteers to collect 971 Kilograms of general rubbish across the five designated hot spots in the City of Banyule. Office of Corrections participants have engaged in regular litter clean ups along Councils waterways and creeks. Rejuvenation of Southern Road Wetland in the Darebin Creek corridor occurred this year, resulting in the de-siltation of the water body and also included replanting and restoration of habitat values. The works has resulted in the return of local birds such kookaburras and pied cormorants. There has clearly been significant efforts in greening related activities. Whilst the number of indigenous plants planted is reported in the State of The Environment other action are not. It would be prudent to report on the cumulative results annually which in a typical year would be in the vicinity of 20,000. A respectable target for a ten year period would be 200,000 plants. Greening Opportunities There are many opportunities to increase tree canopy cover in the City. VicRoads has recently reviewed the criteria for tree planting on verges and medians on roads with a 60 kilometre speed limit. This will enable an opportunity for the establishment of tree lined boulevards along the City’s main arterial spines. The boulevard concept, has in principle support by the Melbourne Planning Authority. The challenge for Council will be the provision of tree establishment and maintenance activities along busy roads. Melbourne Water have worked closely with the Banyule Bush Land Unit over a long period of time. They have contributed to the greening of Banyule through strategic weed removal and subsequent replanting programs with indigenous vegetation. Other potential tree planting sites exist within numerous school sites and along rail easement corridors. Council will need to engage with the responsible land managers to determine what the constraints are and further explore the potential opportunities. OFFICER DECLARATION OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST Section 80C of the Local Government Act 1989 (Act) requires members of Council staff, and persons engaged under contract to provide advice to Council, to disclose any direct or indirect interest in a matter to which the advice relates. Council officers involved in the preparation of this report have no conflict of interest in this matter.

GREENING BANYULE cont’d CONCLUSION Banyule City Council has both a strong policy and practical approach to the delivery of greening activities. This manifests in strong community partnerships that have and continue to result in actions that green the municipality. Council has a pivotal role in leading, supporting and sustaining a greening agenda. Working with the community, ensuring systems, processes and resources are aligned and seeking supplementary funding sources is vital to sustain our Green City.

APPOINTMENT OF BANYULE ENVIRONMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE (BEAC) 2016

Author: John Milkins - Environmental Sustainability Co-ordinator, City Development

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This Report makes recommendations to Council regarding the appointment of the 2016 Banyule Environment Advisory Committee (BEAC), following public advertising for applications in January 2016. RECOMMENDATION That: 1.

Four new two-year appointments [insert names] are made to the Banyule Environment Advisory Committee (BEAC) in 2016, commencing at the July meeting.

2.

Four existing BEAC members (Peter Castaldo, Denise Fernando, Maree Keenan and Kate Roberts) terms are extended for one year to July 2017.

3.

The BEAC Terms of Reference reflect the annual recruitment process with half of the members recruited each year.

4.

Council thanks retiring BEAC members John D’Aloia, Matt Hall, Jonathan Thom and Alan Leenarts for the highly valued expert advice they have provided over the course of their term.

CITY PLAN This report is in line with Council’s City Plan key direction to “act as environmental stewards”. BACKGROUND In 2015 a consultative review of BEAC’s Terms of Reference occurred as part of the establishment of several new Banyule City Council Advisory and Consultative Committees. The intent was to consider the 20 year history of BEAC while coordinating the timing of the appointment of all of Councils’ Advisory Committees. Coordinated appointment meant that all BEAC members would be retiring at the end of a two year term, with a full Committee appointed every two years. The review was conducted over BEAC’s annual recruitment process timeframe, so existing BEAC members were asked to extend their membership for one year to July 2016.

APPOINTMENT OF BANYULE ENVIRONMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE (BEAC) 2016 cont’d In January this year advertisements were placed in local newspapers (Heidelberg and Diamond Valley Leaders), on the Banyule website, and through email group lists, calling for expressions of interest (EOI’s) from Banyule residents for two two-year positions to the Banyule Environmental Advisory Committee. Nominations for BEAC were due 4 March, 2016. Current Committee members BEAC is currently made up of the following members: Name Peter Castaldo Maree Keenan Densie Fernando Kate Roberts Matthew Hall John D’Aloia Alan Leenaerts Jonathan Thom

Appointed 2014 2014 2014 2014 2013 2013 2013 2013

Nominations A total of five (5) new nominations were received from community members: As BEAC Terms of Reference allow up to eight community members, it was considered that having a total of only four members could impact on the functioning of the committee through potential for a lack of quorum. Accordingly, the four shortest term BEAC members appointed in 2014 were invited to extend their membership for a further year. An additional benefit is that BEAC would then comprise four experienced members who could mentor the four proposed newcomers. The 2015 Terms of Reference were amended to reflect this committee composition and annual recruitment cycle. Selection Criteria The applicants were ranked against the selection criteria stated in the Terms of Reference. The applicants being recommended represent a cross-section of the community and environmental interests. They are considered to be of very high calibre and would be an asset to Council’s Environment Advisory Committee. LEGAL CONSIDERATION – The appropriate selection process has been undertaken consistent with the BEAC Terms of Reference, and therefore there are no direct legal implications arising from the advice contained in this briefing note. HUMAN RIGHTS CHARTER Victoria's Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities (the Charter) outlines the basic human rights of all people in Victoria. The Charter requires that governments, local councils and other public authorities comply with Charter and to consider relevant Charter rights when they make decisions.

NORTH EAST LINK - QUARTERLY UPDATE

Author:

Bailey Byrnes - Transport Planning Team Leader, City Development

Previous Items Council on 4 April 2016 (Item 4.2 - North East Link - Quarterly Report) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY There has been no indication by the State Government and VicRoads of any progress on planning for the proposed North East Link in the three months since last reported to Council. However, continued advocacy has resulted in significantly increased media, industry and resident pressure for government action and funding commitments being made during the Federal election campaign for an investigation into the North-East Link. Infrastructure Victoria has identified the North East Link as a high cost option which would improve traffic flow in this orbital corridor. Council’s submission to Infrastructure Victoria highlighted that the Banyule Integrated Transport Plan (BITP) advocates for a North-East Link as a direct orbital link from the Metropolitan Ring Road to Eastlink. As part of its consideration of the North East Truck Curfew, VicRoads commissioned a road safety audit and an acoustic report into the safety, amenity and noise impacts along Rosanna Road and Greensborough Highway. RECOMMENDATION That Council note that the State Government and VicRoads have not progressed planning for the proposed North East Link, however funding commitments have been made during the Federal election campaign for an investigation into the North East Link.

CITY PLAN This report is in line with Council’s City Plan key direction to “support sustainable transport”. BACKGROUND At its meeting on 14 December 2009, Council considered an initial report on the status of the proposed North East Link and an overview of relevant Council resolutions and positions on the link, regional transport, and associated heritage and environmental issues. Council resolved in part as follows: “That Council officers report to the Council every three months on the response from the Minister, VicRoads or other Government departments or agencies on progress in the planning of the North East link.”

NORTH EAST LINK - QUARTERLY UPDATE cont’d In line with this resolution Council considered the most recent report on this matter on 4 April 2016, and resolved: “1.

That Council note that the State Government and VicRoads have not progressed planning for the proposed North East Link.

2.

Once the safety review on the intersection of Banyule Road and Rosanna Road is completed, that a meeting be organised with VicRoads and all Councillors, to discuss the outcome and possible solutions to any issues raised.”

In accordance with Item 2 of the resolution, a safety review of Banyule Road and Rosanna Road has been received and is currently being assessed and a meeting is being arranged with VicRoads and Councillors. Additionally, following an assessment of pedestrian and traffic volumes at the intersection, Council considered a report at its meeting on 14 June and resolved to call on VicRoads to provide a 50% contribution to a Crossing Supervisor. LEGAL CONSIDERATION There are no direct legal implications arising from the recommendation contained in this report. HUMAN RIGHTS CHARTER Victoria's Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities (the Charter) outlines the basic human rights of all people in Victoria. The Charter requires that governments, local councils and other public authorities comply with Charter and to consider relevant Charter rights when they make decisions. In developing this report to Council, the subject matter has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities. It is considered that the subject matter does not raise any human rights issues. DISCUSSION In May, the Victorian Opposition Leader declared that the Coalition supports an in-principle commitment to the North East Link and a future transport package to be announced closer to the state elections in 2018 would include the North-East Link. The Victorian Chamber of Commerce and Industry has also indicated public support for the construction of a future North-East Link. Funding commitments have been made by both the Australian Labour Party and the Liberal Party in the Federal election campaign for $5 million to be made available for a study into options for the North-East Link and the State Member for Ivanhoe has announced that $850,000 will be made available for safety improvements to Rosanna Road.

Ordinary Meeting of Council - 11 July 2016

NORTH EAST LINK - QUARTERLY UPDATE cont’d In May 2016, Infrastructure Victoria released a Draft Options Book outlining the opportunities for new and improved infrastructure across Victoria. The North East Link was identified as a high cost option which would improve traffic flow in this orbital corridor. An excerpt of the options paper with a project summary for the North-East Link is provided as Attachment 1. Council’s submission to Infrastructure Victoria highlighted that the Banyule Integrated Transport Plan (BITP) advocates for a North-East Link as a direct orbital link from the Metropolitan Ring Road to Eastlink and that a future North-East Link is expected to have a greater benefit to Rosanna Road, Greensborough Highway and Fitzsimmons Lane than on Plenty Road and Spring St/St Georges Road as identified in the Options paper. The North East Truck Curfew - Community Reference Group (CRG) was instigated by VicRoads to provide continual community feedback regarding the 12 month trial of the truck curfew between August 2015 and September 2016. The first meeting of the CRG was held on 31 May 2016, which provided information on an independent road safety audit of Rosanna Road and an acoustic report both commissioned by VicRoads. The independent road safety audit of Rosanna Road, between Banksia Street and Lower Plenty Road is provided at Attachment 2. The report noted that in the previous five years to June 2015, there were 75 casualty crashes on the section of Rosanna Road between Yarra Street and Lower Plenty Road, including 15 serious injury crashes and 60 other injury crashes. The report also identified that the current lane widths along Rosanna Road are less than desirable, with heavy vehicles observed to occupy the full lane width. A number of roadside objects, including light poles, crash barriers and bus stops were also identified as hazards. The acoustic report (Attachment 3) was commissioned to assess heavy vehicle noise along Rosanna Road and Greensborough Highway. The report identified that noise emitted from heavy vehicles most likely contribute to sleep disturbance for nearby residents, based on noise emissions associated with breaking, accelerating and turning events. Resolve Rosanna Road is a community group representing residents, businesses and commuters to advocate for and rally support to resolve traffic problems on Rosanna Road. The group is raising the awareness of safety and congestion along Rosanna Road through social media and through meeting with federal and state members of parliament. Resolve Rosanna Road has written to the Federal Member for Jaga Jaga calling for the North-East Link as a long term solution and identified a priority list of works to improve safety on Rosanna Road (Attachment 4). Council also resolved at its meeting of 9 May 2016 in response to a report on the Metropolitan Over-Dimensional Routes that a focus group of local residents be established to help develop an action plan to advocate for the North East Link. The scope and terms of reference of the focus group are currently being formulated and it is expected that interest from the community will be sought in the near future. OFFICER DECLARATION OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST Section 80C of the Local Government Act 1989 (Act) requires members of Council staff, and persons engaged under contract to provide advice to Council, to disclose any direct or indirect interest in a matter to which the advice relates.

CONCLUSION Amenity and safety issues along Rosanna Road have been identified in investigations completed on behalf of VicRoads. However, there has been no further action from VicRoads or the State Government to progress the North-East Link, although commitments have been made in the Federal election campaign for funding to be made available for a study into the North-East Link and the State Member for Ivanhoe has announced that $850,000 will be made available for improvements to Rosanna Road. Council will continue to advocate for the North-East Link as a direct orbital link between the Metropolitan Ring Road to Eastlink.

CONSTRUCTION OF FOUR DWELLINGS AT 14 & 14A HODGSON STREET, HEIDELBERG P89/2015

Author:

Susan Stearn - Development Planner, City Development

Ward:

Ibbott

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A Notice of Decision to Grant a Planning Permit should be issued for the development of four double storey dwellings and associated tree removals on the two lots at 14 and 14A Hodgson Street, Heidelberg, subject to conditions. A total of eleven (11) objections were received to the application. A public consultation meeting was held post advertising to discuss those concerns raised. There are concerns in relation to the overall height and scale of aspects of the proposal and a discussion plan submitted by the applicant has indicated that the upper levels can be reduced in scale to improve the presentation to the streetscape and the south-east corner of the subject site. This includes a reduction to the overall height of all dwellings by 600mm. The removal of vegetation on site is considered acceptable. No high retention value trees will be removed and a majority of medium retention value trees that are not environmental weeds will be retained. The removal of trees on the site is to be compensated for by replacement planting which will ensure the site positively contributes to the established and preferred neighbourhood character. RECOMMENDATION That Council having complied with Section 52, 58, 60, 61 and 62 of the Planning and Environment Act 1987, issue a Notice of Decision to Grant a Planning Permit in respect of Application No. P89/2015 for Construction of Four Double Storey Dwellings and associated tree removal at 14 Hodgson Street HEIDELBERG, 14A Hodgson Street HEIDELBERG subject to the following conditions: Plans 1. Before the development permitted by this permit starts, amended plans to the satisfaction of the Responsible Authority must be submitted to and approved by the Responsible Authority. When approved, the plans will be endorsed and will then form part of the permit. The plans must be drawn to scale with dimensions and three copies must be provided. The plans must be generally in accordance with the advertised plans submitted with the application but modified to show: (a)

Modifications reflected in amended plans received 28 April 2016 prepared by Garden City Architects which include: i)

CONSTRUCTION OF FOUR DWELLINGS AT 14 & 14A HODGSON STREET, HEIDELBERG P89/2015 cont’d The development proposes the construction of four dwellings over two lots. Dwellings 1 and 3 will present to the street while Dwellings 2 and 4 are set to the rear of the site. All four lots are accessed by a single centrally located driveway and vehicle crossing. All four dwellings are double storey. Dwellings 1, 2 and 3 include master bedrooms, living, dining, kitchen and laundries on the ground floor with internal access to garages. Dwelling 4 includes a bedroom and open plan living/kitchen/dining area and access to a single garage. On the upper floor Dwellings 1, 2 and 3 include three bedrooms while dwelling 4 has one additional bedroom on the upper floor. Dwellings 1, 2 and 3 have double garages and Dwelling 4 has a single garage. The total building coverage proposed by the development will be 41.21% with impervious site coverage being 55.75%. OFFICER DECLARATION OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST Section 80C of the Local Government Act 1989 requires members of Council staff, and persons engaged under contract to provide advice to Council, to disclose any direct or indirect interest in a matter to which the advice relates. Council officers involved in the preparation of this report have no conflict of interest in this matter. BACKGROUND/HISTORY Details of previous planning applications for this site are as follows: •

P575/2012 – Application for five dwellings at 14 and 14A Hodgson Street. Application refused by Delegate 12 April 2013. Refusal upheld by VCAT. The tribunal made the following points in the decision: -

-

-

-

The proposal for five double storey dwellings is in contrast to the scale of surrounding development; The scale of double storey at the rear of the site (including a height up to 7.0m) is likely to be visible from the parklands and will have an unacceptable impact on the ridgeline views. The two storey built form for the entire length of the site and across the rear of the site does not protect the Yarra River parklands from visual intrusion. Minimal space provided between dwellings for canopy tree planting. The scale of the dwellings presenting to the street being 2.5 stories and including use of retaining walls and semi-basement parking was contrary to the prevailing built forms. Extensive use of screening to prevent overlooking. Outdoor living areas narrow and linear reducing their usability for future occupants.

Fig 1. Locality Plan

SUBJECT SITE AND SURROUNDING AREA Site area Subject to flooding?

1273m2 No

The subject site is two residential blocks presently occupied by a single dwelling on the eastern side of Hodgson Street. Both lots are rectangular in shape. The combined frontage of the properties to Hodgson Street is 30.48m and the depth is 41.76m. The land is sloped and has a fall from the rear towards the front of the site. The front boundary includes a retaining wall to the footpath. Presently the site is occupied by a single storey brick and pitched tile single storey dwelling located centrally on the two lots. An existing driveway crossing is provided to Hodgson Street centrally on the block with garages provided towards the northern boundary. The site includes a number of established canopy trees and associated landscaping. PUBLIC NOTIFICATION It was considered that the proposal may cause material detriment to surrounding properties, and as such public notification was conducted by means of erecting a sign on the site and posting notices to the owners and occupiers of surrounding properties. To date eleven (11) objections have been received. Grounds of objection are summarised as follows: • • • • •

The proposal is an overdevelopment of the site; The proposal will contribute to parking congestion in the street; The proposal will contribute to traffic congestion in the street; The proposal provides insufficient parking on site; The proposal presents excessive bulk and mass to adjoining properties;

The proposal is poor setbacks to boundaries; The upper floors result in overlooking to adjoining properties; The height of the building is contrary to the surrounding area; The landscaping proposed in insufficient for the area; The proposal will impact the views to the Yarra Parklands; The proposal includes excessive tree removals from the site; The site provides inadequate landscaping opportunities; During the Construction period the development will have adverse impacts on adjoining properties;

CONSULTATION A public consultation meeting was undertaken with residents, the ward Councillor, the applicants and the planning officer. Six residents attended the meeting. No resolution to the concerns raised was reached, however the applicant conceded that they would consider some amendments to the plans including increasing setbacks and reduced building height in response to the adjoining properties concerns. Subsequent to the Public Consultation meeting, the applicants have submitted discussion plans which indicate the following changes: • • • • • •

Dwelling 1 and 3 increased setbacks to 1.6m from adjoining properties with internal reconfigurations accordingly’ All floor levels reduced by 200mm; All roof pitches reduced to 18 degrees; Overall reduction in building heights of 600mm; Bins and shed relocated to service areas; Additional gate provided to Dwelling 1’s side fence;

REFERRAL COMMENTS ENGINEERING SERVICES Council’s Engineering Services Section have reviewed the proposal and raised no major concerns. Formal comments are available on file. Standard conditions relating to access, parking areas and drainage requested should be included on any approval issued. DEVELOPMENT PLANNING ARBORIST Council’s Development Planning Arborist has advised that: The proposal can be supported from an arboricultural perspective provided that: • •

TECHNICAL CONSIDERATION Neighbourhood Character The site is identified in Council’s Neighbourhood Character policy as being within the Garden Suburban 2 Precinct. Principally, this precinct seeks to protect and enhance the garden suburban character with emphasis on tree planting. Development should be well designed single dwellings and medium density dwellings in landscaped settings. It is considered that the principle of two dwellings on each of the lots, with generous space, adequate tree replacement planting and landscaping and articulated built forms satisfies this objective. Mass, bulk, scale and neighbourhood character Elements of sheer walls on the upper floor have been incorporated into some dwellings which are orientated away from adjoining properties and largely obscured from street view. The upper floors are not considered to present any unreasonable or overbearing impact on adjoining properties. The setback of the ground floor from respective boundaries both aids in reducing the built form and enables landscaping opportunities for further serve as a buffer to adjoining properties.

CONSTRUCTION OF FOUR DWELLINGS AT 14 & 14A HODGSON STREET, HEIDELBERG P89/2015 cont’d Dwelling 4 has included a total upper floor area of 29.77m2 which constitutes 36% of the lower level. The scale of this upper level minimises the scale of upper floor development over the entire site and opens sightlines from the site towards the south east towards the Banyule Flats. The layout of Dwellings 2 and 4 as they present to the south east include a built form separation of 5.5m on the upper floor and 3.5m on the ground level. The physical separation combined with the reduced building height is considered to be an appropriate response to the sightlines from the surrounding parklands. The building height for Dwelling 4 will be similar in height to the dwelling located at 8 Dalvey Street. The overall building coverage on the site is 41.2% and while greater than the 40% sought for the area the proposal on balance has satisfied the landscaping objectives sought by the intent of this policy. The proposal limits all vehicle access to be served by a single curved crossing located centrally on the site. Given the site is double width in nature the crossing layout retains the maximum area of landscaping within the front setback. The vehicle crossing layout also enables the retention of existing trees within the front setback. Each dwelling is provided with the required area of open space with additional service areas to each dwelling and ample planting opportunities. Permit conditions can further require the extent of paving within the parking area be further reduced to enable more landscaping. The generous front setback as well as open areas around the site ensures the proposal will have a positive contribution to the neighbourhood outcomes sought for this garden character precinct. Amenity Impacts The proposal demonstrates compliance with all the standards of Clause 55 in particular with regards to setbacks of built form and overlooking. The proposal has gone further in the design to allow for lower levels to be set off site boundaries to enable areas where meaningful landscaping and tree planting can occur to further soften the built form. Permit conditions will require that the roof pitches of all dwellings be reduced to 18 degrees and all floor levels reduced a further 200mm, greater excavation is proposed to also reduce the heights of all dwellings. This will result in a reduction to the height of all dwellings by 600mm. The reduced roof height combined with the physical separation of Dwellings 2 and 4 contributes to the reduction in bulk and mass from the eastern perspective. Vegetation and front setback The proposal has specifically incorporated setbacks to Dwellings 3 and 4 from the southern boundary to minimise impacts on adjoining protected trees. The design has incorporated the retention of four trees within the front setback which will contribute to maintaining the established landscape character and will partially screen the development from the street. As such, no high retention value trees will be removed and a majority of medium retention value trees that are not environmental weeds will be retained. Further tree planting and associated understorey landscaping can be achieved within the front setback and around the proposed dwellings.

4.2

CONSTRUCTION OF FOUR DWELLINGS AT 14 & 14A HODGSON STREET, HEIDELBERG P89/2015 cont’d The proposal has been designed to provide a single curved crossing located centrally on the two lots to access all dwellings. The front setback of the dwellings ranges from 8.9m to 10m which both responds to the established street setbacks and provides a generous area for landscaping. The provision of a single crossing on the two lots both aids in reducing the paved surfaces within the front setback and enables maximum landscaping opportunities. All car parking is located at the rear and is not visible from the street. Response to Previous VCAT decision Having regard to the previous application refused for the development of five double storey dwellings it is considered that the current application has suitably considered and responded to the concerns raised: • • • •

Each dwelling is provided with a modest and articulated upper floor with considerable separation on both the ground and upper floor. A more sensitive and open design has been applied along the rear of the site ensuring the proposal does not appear visually obtrusive when viewed from the surrounding parkland. Greater landscaping opportunities have been afforded within the development and with greater spacing along the side and rear boundary for tree planting. A generous front setback is provided with minimal paved surfaces and the retention of existing trees where possible. The outdoor living areas provided to each dwelling provide sufficient area to satisfy the reasonable service and recreational needs of future occupants.

Overall, the development of four dwellings on the two sites is considered a suitable design response having regard for the existing and preferred neighbourhood character. CONCLUSION The proposed development is consistent with State and Local Planning Policies, including Council’s Residential Neighbourhood Character Policy and complies with Clause 55 of the Banyule Planning Scheme. As such, the application should be supported with appropriate conditions.

Place – Sustainable Amenity and Built Environment

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In December 2015, Council appointed Inside Edge Sport and Leisure Planning to work with the community and Council to develop a master plan for Olympic Park, Heidelberg West. The objective of the project was to prepare a master plan for Olympic Park to ensure the best outcomes for the community, with improved facilities, better linkages and access from both sides of Darebin Creek, and a long term sustainable plan for the precinct. An extensive and targeted consultation process was undertaken with key internal and external stakeholders to gather information, identify the needs of key users and determine future improvements and development opportunities at Olympic Park. The draft plans are now ready for the final consultation phase and this report recommends that Council adopt the draft master plan for the purpose of public consultation between 12 July and 9 August 2016 and invite written submissions during this period. RECOMMENDATION That Council: 1.

Adopt the Olympic Park Draft Master Plan for the purpose of community consultation between 12 July – 9 August 2016

2.

Invite community members to submit written submissions in relation to the draft plan via communication in the Leader Newspaper (Banyule in Brief), Council’s website, Facebook page, direct email to the user groups at Olympic Park and primary and secondary stakeholders.

3.

Receive a further report following the community consultation period.

CITY PLAN This report is in line with Council’s City Plan key direction to “enhance Banyule’s public and open spaces”. BACKGROUND In December 2015, Council appointed Inside Edge Sport and Leisure Planning as the lead consultants to work with the community and Council to develop a master plan for Olympic Park, Heidelberg West. Inside Edge Sport and Leisure Planning have prepared the draft plan in partnership with landscape architects, ACLA Consultants.

OLYMPIC PARK DRAFT MASTER PLAN cont’d Olympic Park is located on the western fringe of the municipality. The park is within an established residential area, situated along the Darebin Creek. In close proximity to the west is a commercial precinct that includes Northland Shopping Centre and to the north-east off Dougharty Rd, is a substantial industrial area. The park is home to the Heidelberg United Football Club (soccer), Olympic Colts Cricket Club and the Babarrbunin Beek Aboriginal Gathering Place. The site has a significant history and was once used as a prominent training base for the 1956 Olympic Games. With an increasing demand for improved sport, recreation and cultural opportunities, and the La Trobe employment cluster driving future employment opportunities and population growth in the area, there was a proven need to develop a Master Plan to address current and future gaps in open space and facility provision. The Master Plan aims to identify the key issues and challenges constraining the use and development of Olympic Park and provide a clear vision and direction for the site that will enable Council to plan for its future enhancement and improvement. LEGAL CONSIDERATION There are no direct legal implications arising from the recommendation contained in this report. HUMAN RIGHTS CHARTER Victoria's Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities (the Charter) outlines the basic human rights of all people in Victoria. The Charter requires that governments, local councils and other public authorities comply with Charter and to consider relevant Charter rights when they make decisions. In developing this report to Council, the subject matter has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities. It is considered that the subject matter does not raise any human rights issues.

OLYMPIC PARK DRAFT MASTER PLAN cont’d A background research and consultation report titled ‘Olympic Park Draft Master Plan – Volume 2 – Background and Key Findings Report’ is included in Attachment Two. It provides a detailed project and local sporting context analysis, strategic review, demographic and site assessment, stakeholder consultation outcomes, and all other background information and research collected during the development of the Master Plan. A series of key development principles (which are aligned with Council’s Public Open Space Plan) have been established to assist Council with future planning and development of Olympic Park. The development principles have been grouped into the following key strategic pillars: • • • •

Quality – of sports fields and infrastructure Quantity – of community recreation and safety Diversity and sustainability - of sport, community and open space provision Accessibility and connection – getting to and using Olympic Park

The recommendations listed in the report are also grouped under the key strategic pillars and are based on a 1-5 year, 5-10 year and 10 + year timeframe. The recommendations have been staged to support a collaborative, well planned and responsible approach to implementation. A staged approach also recognises the significant costs associated with major upgrades and new works proposed for Olympic Park. FUNDING IMPLICATIONS The estimated cost to implement all elements of the master plan is $9,479,000 excluding GST. Banyule City Council will need to seek partnerships and funding opportunities with various external stakeholders in order to achieve several of the proposed works identified in the master plan. CONSULTATION The project involved extensive consultation with Olympic Park user groups, the community and Council Officers. Household surveys, stakeholder interviews, community reference group workshops, a community safety group workshop and a community drop-in event were conducted to ensure the Master Plan reflects the needs of the local community. Full details of the consultation process and outputs are included in Olympic Park Draft Master Plan - Volume 2 – Background and Key Findings Report. TIMELINES It is proposed that the draft master plan be released for final consultation and comment 12 July – 9 August 2016. A further report will be provided following the consultation period. OFFICER DECLARATION OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST Section 80C of the Local Government Act 1989 (Act) requires members of Council staff, and persons engaged under contract to provide advice to Council, to disclose any direct or indirect interest in a matter to which the advice relates.

OLYMPIC PARK DRAFT MASTER PLAN cont’d Council officers involved in the preparation of this report have no conflict of interest in this matter. CONCLUSION The consultation confirmed that Olympic Park is a highly valued reserve for the user groups and local community in and around Heidelberg West. Olympic Park’s proximity to the Northland Shopping Centre, Latrobe University and the Darebin Creek Trail will ensure its ongoing popularity and future demand as one of Council’s premier reserves. The draft Master Plan will guide Council in planning for future enhancements and improvements to serve the local community for decades to come.

Previous Items Council on 27 June 2016 (Item 6.1 - Somers Avenue, Macleod - Review of paid parking system) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY At its meeting on 22 June 2015, Council resolved to install a paid parking system in Somers Avenue, Macleod. In addition, at its meeting on 9 November 2015, Council resolved to stage the paid parking implementation in two stages, assessing the impacts of the first one prior to proceeding with the second. Stage one of the paid parking system was implemented in Somers Avenue in December 2015. In the last months the occupancy rate has been low, with an average transaction of two to three vehicles per weekday, resulting in the displacement of approximately 22 vehicles to the surrounding street network. Residents, commuters and traders have raised their concerns in relation to the implementation of paid parking; with displacement of parking and increase in total cost of travel being the major concerns. The report was deferred at the Council Meeting of 27 June 2016. RECOMMENDATION That Council: 1.

Retain the stage one paid parking restrictions installed in Somers Avenue, Macleod, and reduce the fee to $2 per day.

2.

Postpone the implementation of stage two paid parking restrictions proposed in Somers Avenue, Macleod, until further assessment is undertaken in 12 months, when commuter parking is expected to have settled.

3.

Receive a report in relation to the utilisation of the stage one paid parking restrictions in Somers Avenue, Macleod, following the assessment in 12 months.

4.

Undertake regular enforcement of the short term parking restrictions in the streets near the Macleod railway station and Macleod Village shopping precinct.

5.

Investigate the possibilities of jointly funding a Parkiteer bicycle cage at Macleod railway station, with Public Transport Victoria.

SOMERS AVENUE, MACLEOD - REVIEW OF PAID PARKING cont’d OFFICER DECLARATION OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST Section 80C of the Local Government Act 1989 (Act) requires members of Council staff, and persons engaged under contract to provide advice to Council, to disclose any direct or indirect interest in a matter to which the advice relates. Council officers involved in the preparation of this report have no conflict of interest in this matter. CITY PLAN This report is in line with Council’s City Plan key direction to “support sustainable transport”. HUMAN RIGHTS CHARTER Victoria's Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities (the Charter) outlines the basic human rights of all people in Victoria. The Charter requires that governments, local councils and other public authorities comply with Charter and to consider relevant Charter rights when they make decisions. In developing this report to Council, the subject matter has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities. It is considered that the subject matter does not raise any human rights issues. BACKGROUND A report regarding additional paid parking locations was considered by Council at its meeting on 22 June 2015. At the meeting it was resolved to install a paid parking system in Somers Avenue, Macleod, adjacent to Macleod College. A locality plan is provided in Figure 1 and it shows the length of Somers Avenue, where paid parking was approved to be installed.

Figure 1 – Extension of the approved Paid Parking System in Macleod Further, at its meeting on 9 November 2015, Council considered a Notice of Motion in relation to staging the installation of the paid parking system in Somers Avenue, Macleod. At the meeting it was resolved: “That Council: 1.

Stage the introduction of paid parking along the east side of Somers Avenue in Macleod adjacent to Macleod College. The first stage for approximately half the unrestricted length is to be serviced by two machines and installed prior to Christmas 2015.

2.

Receive a report assessing the impacts of the first stage six months following the introduction of stage 1 machines to determine whether to proceed to a second stage.”

A report responding to item 2 of the above resolution was deferred at Council’s meeting of 27 June 2016. LEGAL CONSIDERATION Council’s powers concerning parking is defined under Schedule 11 of the Local Government Act 1989, which allows for Council to fix, rescind or vary: • •

The days, hours and periods of time for which, and the conditions on which, vehicles may stand in a parking area in any highway or other parking area; and Fees for any vehicles standing in a parking area and the manner of payment of those fees.

SOMERS AVENUE, MACLEOD - REVIEW OF PAID PARKING cont’d As such, there are no legal implications for Council in relation to introducing or modifying parking restrictions in the streets, including paid parking systems. CURRENT SITUATION Consistent with the resolution of 9 November 2015, the first stage of the paid parking system was implemented in Somers Avenue, Macleod, in December 2015. This section includes 24 parking spaces and is serviced by two machines (Refer to Figure 1). The fees are currently set at $1 per hour and up to $5 per day. Several observations were undertaken in Somers Avenue in the last months to determine the level of use of the paid parking spaces. It was determined that there was a low occupancy level (4%), and that at the most, one vehicle was parked at any time. In addition to the site observations, the transactions registered by the ticket machines provide an indication of the number of vehicles that have utilised the paid parking area. The number of transactions per machine for each month since the installation is provided in Table 1. Table 1 – Number of transactions per month Machine No.

Consistent with the observations, the recorded transactions indicate that the overall usage is low, with two to three vehicles per day. It could be assumed that the demand for parking has increased by 22 vehicles in the surrounding street network following the introduction of paid parking in Somers Avenue. While the number of vehicles relocated by the introduction of paid parking represents a low number in relation to the available parking in the area, residents, commuters and traders have raised their concerns in relation to this. COMMUNITY FEEDBACK The nature of concerns received from the community in relation to paid parking implemented in Somers Avenue is listed in Table 2. Table 2 – The nature of community concerns Number of Concern times raised Displacement of parking demand to commercial and 8 residential area Total cost of travel increased 5 Reduced access to Public Transport 2 Lack of consultation with the community prior to the 2 installation Low use of the paid parking spaces 2

SOMERS AVENUE, MACLEOD - REVIEW OF PAID PARKING cont’d In addition to concerns directly associated with the installation of paid parking on Somers Avenue, residents living in close to Somers Avenue and the Macleod railway station have raised concerns in relation to an increase in the parking levels in their street and difficulty in finding parking near their properties. Figure 2 shows the streets where residents have contacted Council in relation to parking concerns, following the introduction of paid parking in Somers Avenue. The introduction of parking restrictions in Carwarp, Argyle and May Streets serves to both protect residents against commuter parking intrusion as well as to make the Somers Avenue parking relatively more attractive when compared to a longer walk from the next available unrestricted parking areas.

Figure 2 – Streets where short-term parking restrictions have been requested While it is recognised that the introduction of a paid parking system in Somers Avenue may have resulted in the displacement of 22 vehicles, it is important to note that other factors could also have had an effect on the increase in the demand for the parking in the surrounding streets, including: • • •

Reduction in public transport fare prices when travelling between zones one and two since 1 January 2015 Introduction of parking restrictions in residential streets Introduction of paid parking and changed parking restrictions close to other railway stations in Banyule.

SOMERS AVENUE, MACLEOD - REVIEW OF PAID PARKING cont’d Some residents have suggested that the daily fee is too high and that more people would use the paid parking if the fee was lowered or removed. In consideration of this, it is proposed that the daily fee be reduced to $2 per day for this location. The Macleod Village Traders Association originally indicated their concerns regarding the lack of public transport for residents living in the north side of the railway line and the lack of secure bicycle parking spaces at Macleod railway station. They also had concerns in relation to lack of enforcement in the streets surrounding the shopping precinct. However the Traders Association wrote to Council on 27 June 2016 indicating acceptance of the paid parking regime remaining in place for a fee of $2 per day, provided there is adequate parking enforcement and support for alternative transport modes. The Parkiteer bicycle cages recently installed at the Watsonia and Greensborough railway stations have been positively received by the community, and promotes sustainable modes of transport. Given this, the installation of a Parkiteer bicycle cage at Macleod railway station is considered appropriate, and as such, Council should investigate the possibilities of jointly funding a Parkiteer bicycle cage with Public Transport Victoria. Council’s Municipal Laws department has been requested to enforce the Macleod Shopping Precinct in the coming months to raise awareness of the parking restrictions and improve ability for customers to find parking. IMPLEMENTATION OF STAGE 2 The low usage of the parking spaces where the paid parking system currently operates in Macleod and the displacement of vehicles into neighbouring streets is a similar situation to the one when paid parking was implemented in the off street car park in Greensborough and also the on street parking areas to the east of Rosanna railway station. Initially, there were low occupancy rates, displacement of parking to residential areas, and then the installation of short-term parking restrictions. Approximately one year after the introduction of paid parking, occupancy rates are now close to 100%. Given the above, it is considered appropriate to retain the existing paid parking restrictions implemented in Somers Avenue and postpone the implementation of stage two until further assessment is undertaken in 12 months, when commuter parking is expected to have settled. OFFICER DECLARATION OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST Section 80C of the Local Government Act 1989 (Act) requires members of Council staff, and persons engaged under contract to provide advice to Council, to disclose any direct or indirect interest in a matter to which the advice relates. Council officers involved in the preparation of this report have no conflict of interest in this matter.

While it is considered appropriate to retain the existing paid parking restrictions in Somers Avenue, it is proposed that the fee be reduced to $2 per day and the utilisation and performance of the paid parking be reassessed in 12 months when commuter parking is expected to have settled. The Macleod Village Traders Association accepts this approach. The installation of a Parkiteer bicycle cage at Macleod railway station is considered appropriate, and as such, Council investigate the possibilities of jointly funding a Parkiteer bicycle cage with Public Transport Victoria. Council’s Municipal Laws department is to undertake regular enforcement of the short term parking restrictions in the streets near Macleod Village shopping precinct.

MANAGING CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH LARGE DEVELOPMENT SITES

Author:

Scott Walker - Director City Development, City Development

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Development within Banyule has been growing over recent years with a significant increase in larger development sites resulting in amenity impacts on residential and commercial areas. Construction activity impacts include noise, mud, dust, parking of construction vehicles and plant and equipment located on public land. The Development Planning, Engineering, Municipal Laws, Building and Asset Protection Units of Council are all involved in the approvals and construction monitoring process. Many of the systems and processes have been in place for some time and were not set up to deal with the amount and scale of development that is now taking place across the municipality. In order to provide the level of protection that the community expects, a review of the processes and systems is needed to ensure compliance with the appropriate legislation and requirements. Council’s General Local Law contains many relevant amenity clauses that can be used as permit requirements for asset protection. Construction Management Plans are an important tool that can also be used at the Planning Permit stage, however, they are best enforced through the Local Law and other associated legislation. Additional resources are required to assist with establishing an effective system for construction activity permits, approvals and monitoring associated with developments. Such a system should include changes in delegation to staff, the implementation of streamlined application processes, and the use of “in field” technology. It is expected that the increased costs to establish and run the new system can be covered through permit and approval fees and enforcement activities. The revised system is expected to improve stakeholder management, provide enhanced levels of customer service and clearer roles for those involved. RECOMMENDATION That the process and system for undertaking the issuing of construction activity permits, approvals and monitoring associated with development in Banyule is reviewed and enhanced to ensure that amenity impacts are appropriately managed. The changes should be in accordance with the following principles and parameters: i.

Processes are streamlined, including the use of technology to improve transactions between developers and Council, timely feedback to stakeholders and improved customer service levels;

ii.

A clear enforcement framework is developed which supports the issuing of infringements for breaches of the Local Law and other relevant legislation;

MANAGING CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH LARGE DEVELOPMENT SITES cont’d iii.

Processes, systems and resource are aligned to ensure that the various roles within the organisation are clear and unambiguous in terms of responsibility;

iv.

Delegations are broadened to enable a range of legislation and enforcement tools to be used by staff involved;

v.

Fees associated with approvals are increased to improve the quality of applications, reduce unnecessary activity and recover costs associated with additional resources;

vi.

A cost neutral or positive net return to Council is achieved taking into consideration additional income and additional resource costs expected.

A report outlining the new system including process changes and associated fees and costs is to be brought back to Council by the end of 2016.

CITY PLAN This report is in line with Council’s City Plan key direction to “enhance Banyule’s public and open spaces”. BACKGROUND At its meeting on 9 May 2016, Council considered a Notice of Motion (CO2016/152) on managing amenity impacts and construction activity for large development sites and resolved as follows: “That a report be prepared which reviews the management of amenity impacts, car parking and construction activity for large development sites. The review should consider:

• • • •

Construction management plans and when they should be used; Construction activity which impacts on Council assets and the functioning of roads, footpaths, car parks and other public spaces; Construction vehicle and worker car parking impacts; Resourcing required to better manage construction activity within the municipality.”

MANAGING CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH LARGE DEVELOPMENT SITES cont’d Council previously considered a report on a related issue on 2 December 2013 looking at options available to Council to address development sites with issues (CO2013/1). At the time Council resolved as follows: That Council: 1.

Pursues opportunities to better manage building sites and unsightly properties as part of the Local Law Review currently underway and a review and updating of the associated Building Site Code of Practice.

2.

Identify and pursue opportunities to educate the community on the issues associated with development sites and the role of Council and other agencies through the media and Banyule Banner, direct mail to real estate agents and managing agents and the preparation of an information booklet and pamphlet to be made available on Council’s website and customer service centres.

3.

Focused enforcement of the Local Law on key building site issues with the resources available within the Local Law Team and particularly following the review of the Local Law and Building Site Code of Practice and increased education.

4.

Request the Municipal Association of Victoria through the State Council meeting to advocate for State wide legislation to better manage and control the amenity of development sites and move a Notice of Motion at next years State Conference.

5.

Preparation and implementation of Planning and Building Enforcement Policy and further consideration of options to improve Statutory Planning enforcement

6.

Continued Building enforcement in line with recent service improvements to enforce Building Requirements.

7.

Ongoing updates of the Local Planning Policy Framework and planning requirements to support and encourage the redevelopment of parts of the municipality in line with the Strategic Direction being pursued and identified in the Housing Strategy/framework and Activity Centre Plans. This will include the use of the new residential zones.

8.

Consideration of options for direct development support through an enhanced Economic Development and project support service which may include additional resources to be considered as part of future budgets.

9.

Further refinement and streamlining of the development planning approvals process to facilitate timely redevelopment outcomes in line with Council’s Strategies identified in the Local Planning Policy Framework.

All of the actions arising from the 2 December 2013 resolution have been pursued. The primary action has been the extensive review of the Local Law. A new General Local Law No. 1 was adopted by Council on 23 March 2015. Local Laws are adopted to protect public health, safety, or amenity and are designed to ensure that the actions of an individual or group do not have a negative or undesirable impact on the rest of the community. However, they cannot duplicate, overlap, conflict with or be inconsistent with existing Federal or State legislation. There were a number of changes to the local law in 2015 as it relates to building sites with significant changes relating to the Asset Protection processes, permits and infringements.

Ordinary Meeting of Council - 11 July 2016

MANAGING CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH LARGE DEVELOPMENT SITES cont’d Since 2013 development within the municipality has continued at a rapid pace with a large number of significant development sites under construction and causing amenity impacts on existing residential and commercial areas. A report was prepared and presented to Council for consideration on 27 June 2016 but was deferred to a future meeting of Council. The report is now being presented for consideration. LEGAL CONSIDERATION There are a number of relevant legal considerations when considering permits and enforcement associated with development sites. Ensuring that the appropriate legislation is used to address the particular concern and that Council does not go beyond its powers is essential. Whilst Council’s Local Law No.1 can be amended and provides flexibility for Council to address specific issues it must not duplicate, overlap or be inconsistent with other State or Federal legislation. It is also important that Council ensures that it has provided sufficient delegation to staff to act on its behalf and designated the appropriate authority to staff to act. HUMAN RIGHTS CHARTER Victoria's Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities (the Charter) outlines the basic human rights of all people in Victoria. The Charter requires that governments, local councils and other public authorities comply with Charter and to consider relevant Charter rights when they make decisions. In developing this report to Council, the subject matter has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities. It is considered that the subject matter does not raise any human rights issues. CURRENT SITUATION Council plays an important role in setting the strategic direction and guidelines for development, approving developments and then monitoring construction activities and the subsequent development outcomes. However, the development process does not always run smoothly. Construction activities often impact on the amenity of an area and there are times when development sites become unsightly or create amenity impacts on the surrounding area due to construction activity. The impacts can include noise, mud or dust, damage to Council assets, occupation of Council land and public spaces and equipment, plant and construction vehicles occupying surrounding streets amongst other issues. Over recent years there has also been a significant increase in development activity associated with larger multi-level developments, often within constrained locations in activity centres or built up areas. These larger developments in constrained locations magnify the amenity impacts, particularly where there are multiple developments underway concurrently. Banyule (like many middle ring municipalities) is slowly coming to grips with the fact that the city is coming to the suburbs. The size and scale of development traditionally reserved for the city and inner suburban municipalities such as Yarra, Port Phillip, Boroondara and Stonnington are becoming more common as the land within inner suburbs becomes less available, more expensive or otherwise less viable for development.

MANAGING CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH LARGE DEVELOPMENT SITES cont’d The issues associated with large development sites are not unique to Banyule. It is an issue common to many municipalities, but the issue has varying degrees of detrimental impact on a community depending on the location and surrounding character of an area. Council Departments Dealing with Development Sites There are a number of Council Departments or service units that have a role in the development and land use management process, some more directly than others. The State Government and its associated agencies such as the Department of Land, Water, Environment and Planning (DLWEP) and the Environment Protection Authority (EPA) also play an important role. In summary, Council Service units have the following key roles: Strategic Planning

Setting the broad land use direction and planning framework including Local Planning Policy Framework (LPPF) and local policies, rules and guidelines for the municipality in accordance with the State Planning Policy Framework (SPPF) and Planning and Environment Act 1987 (P&E Act).

Economic Development

Encouraging positive development, employment and investment within the municipality which is consistent with the City Plan and local planning policy direction.

Development Planning

Managing the overall development and land use approvals and subsequent enforcement in accordance with the LPPF and local rules prepared by Strategic Planning and the SPPF and P&E Act established by the State Government.

Building (Banyule BPI)

Managing building approvals, if appointed as the relevant building surveyor, and enforcement of building approvals issued in the municipality primarily in relation to structural integrity and safety of buildings and subsequent to relevant planning approvals.

Engineering Services

Providing technical advice on the appropriate standards and approval of design in relation to car parking, roads and drains (including drains which will become Council assets) to support the approval processes of Development Planning and Building. There is also direct input to the approval of traffic management plans for construction activity.

Local Laws

Ensuring that construction and building activity is well managed in accordance with Council’s Local Law to minimise amenity impacts on the community.

Asset Protection

Granting approvals for works and occupation of Council land and the inspection and protection of Council’s assets.

Environmental Health

To respond to and manage health related issues from sustained land use activities such as domestic noise, offensive odours, asbestos management, vermin or other health issues in accordance with State legislation.

MANAGING CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH LARGE DEVELOPMENT SITES cont’d A more detailed examination of the role of each Department involved in the management of development is included as Attachment 1. TECHNICAL CONSIDERATIONS AND DISCUSSION Responsibility for monitoring and managing construction sites As outlined above there are multiple agencies, stakeholders and Council units that have responsibility for managing building activities on development sites. The overlapping nature of these responsibilities as well as the gaps between those responsibilities at times result in poor construction practices and amenity impacts on the community. These issues are compounded for larger building sites which are now much more common in Banyule as a result of the increase in larger scale developments over recent years. The resourcing levels required to monitor and enforce building activity has also not increased in proportion to the change. Some of the key issues that have been identified include: •

The lack of notification of the Asset Protection Unit before a development commences.

Confusion created where Construction Management Plans are sometimes required for planning permits (but not always);

Inconsistencies between Construction Management Plans and the Local Law;

Overlapping responsibility between Council Units (Planning, Building, Local Laws and Asset Protection) depending on the type of development and whether a Construction Management Plan has been prepared;

Gaps in responsibility between Council Units (i.e. some developments not triggering consideration of construction management issues or asset protection);

Inadequate guidance to developers on their obligations and Council requirements in relation to construction management;

Insufficient fees for approving construction activities which impact on Council land, assets and residential and commercial amenity;

Limited resources to adequately monitor development sites during construction and respond to issues and concerns when they arise;

Low number of infringements issued for breaches of approved Construction Management Plans and the Local Law despite a large number of complaints and apparent non-compliance in many situations;

High rate of undetected damage to Council assets and subsequent requirement for Council to undertake repairs and reinstatement;

Construction Management Plans Construction Management Plans (CMP) are discussed in detail in Attachment 2.

Ordinary Meeting of Council - 11 July 2016

MANAGING CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH LARGE DEVELOPMENT SITES cont’d It is recognised that a CMP provides a valuable tool to focus the mind of the developer on the implications of their proposed construction activity on surrounding residents and infrastructure. However, the imposition of the requirement for a CMP as a condition of a planning permit provides the inference and unrealistic expectation that any breach of the CMP will be pursued under the planning function. A planning permit should contain conditions that are reasonably able to be enforced by the Development Planning Unit under the provisions of the Planning and Environment Act 1987, rather than conditions that are enforced under other legislation. It is therefore more appropriate to impose stand-alone conditions on planning permits where construction has a direct impact on a planning-related issue, and to seek a CMP separately for consideration and enforcement primarily by Council’s Municipal Laws Unit, but with reference to the Environmental Health Unit, Building Unit and Building and Civil Works Unit as appropriate. A suitable permit note or initiating condition can be included on a planning permit for larger developments where a CMP is required. Approvals for Occupation of Council land Council has obligations under the Local Government Act 1989 and Road Management Act 2004 to ensure all activities upon roads within the municipality are the subject of surveillance audits to ensure Compliance with the Road Management Act and other associated legislation. The types of activities that come under this obligation are outlined in Attachment 3 but include cranes, concrete pumps, hoardings, scaffolding, work areas and zones and temporary vehicle crossing. Delegations and authority Given the number of Council staff involved in development site enforcement activities there is a spread across the different positions with regard to delegations and authority to undertake enforcement. At times this can be separated out into individual “silo’s” which can result in a narrow focus when sites are inspected by individual officers. There should be a wider use of delegations which provide scope, but not necessarily the responsibility, to undertake enforcement using the range of legislation and enforcement tools available. For example, the Municipal Laws Officers should be empowered to enforce under the Planning and Environment Act and vice versa. his does not necessarily mean that the Municipal Laws Officers would subsequently be responsible for enforcement of planning matters, but there may be times where providing that power is of benefit, particularly for construction activity management and enforcement. Processes and systems The current systems and processes associated with development site enforcement are adhoc and not fully linked. There needs to be a streamlined application process for approvals which can be linked with the Construction Management Plan process described earlier in this report. This can be provided online so that it can be incorporated with Councils corporate systems including the records management system and then subsequently accessed using mobile technology by officers “in the field”. This will improve the access to information for staff and improve the level of enforceability and customer service levels to not only developers but the general public who regularly raise concerns with regard to development activity.

MANAGING CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH LARGE DEVELOPMENT SITES cont’d Resources and effective controls Whilst there are available process improvements which should be considered and implemented, there is also a direct relationship between the resourcing available to monitor development sites and compliance issues. Additional enforcement resources will enable enhanced monitoring of development sites. There is merit in one or more additional officers to issue approvals and monitor construction sites. The addition of Local Laws / Permits Inspector role(s) is intended to meet the following objectives and outcomes: • •

• • •

Ensure compliance with the requirement to obtain permits for activities on roads and Council Land; Undertake inspection of activities upon Roads and Council Land to ensure Permits conditions are implemented and Construction Management Plans are complied with. Key issues to be monitored include public safety, traffic management arrangements, and damage to Council assets; Ensure all additional requirements such as Road Opening Consents, Regulation 604 Public protection measures are in place and Asset Protection Permits have been obtained; Increase proactive compliance activities around building sites and other private civil works occurring within the Municipality; Meet public expectations to ensure building works are occurring with minimal impact on Amenity.

Whether the position(s) is best located in the Municipal Laws or Assets Unit and the ongoing relationship between the units with regard to monitoring construction sites will need to be established. Fees and potential income The fee structure for permits and approvals should be reviewed to ensure that the fees being charged at a minimum cover the administrative cost of the service. Occupation fees should also take account of the impact on amenity and disruption. In addition, increased enforcement will enable more infringements to be issued to developers in breach. Whilst this will bring additional revenue it will also send a message to developers that Banyule Council takes the management of construction sites seriously and expects compliance. FUNDING IMPLICATIONS Whilst additional resources will be required to establish an effective system for issuing construction activity permits, approvals and monitoring associated with developments under construction, it is expected that the increased costs will be covered by additional revenue. TIMELINES A revised system will take up to 6 months to establish new processes, update relevant documentation and information and appoint appropriate staff. Enhanced monitoring of construction sites can be gradually introduced and a fully operational revised monitoring system could be established by the end of the year. A report can be brought to Council at this time outlining the changes to be undertaken.

Council officers involved in the preparation of this report have no conflict of interest in this matter. CONCLUSION Development within Banyule has been growing over recent years with a significant increase in larger development sites resulting in amenity impacts on residential and commercial areas. Construction activity impacts include noise, mud, dust, parking of construction vehicles and plant and equipment located on public land. The Development Planning, Engineering, Municipal Laws, Building and Asset Protection Units of Council are all involved in the approvals and construction monitoring process. Many of the systems and processes have been in place for some time and were not set up to deal with the amount and scale of development that is now taking place across the municipality. Therefore, in order to provide the level of protection that the community expects, a review of the processes and systems is needed to ensure compliance with the appropriate legislation and requirements. Council’s revised Local Law contains many relevant amenity clauses that can be used as permit requirements for asset protection. Construction Management Plans are an important tool that can also be used at the Planning Permit stage, however, they are best enforced through the Local Law and other associated legislation. Additional resources are required to assist with establishing an effective system for construction activity permits, approvals and monitoring associated with developments. Such a system should include changes in delegation to staff, the implementation of streamlined application processes, and the use of “in field” technology. It is expected that the increased costs to establish and run the new system can be covered by additional revenue primarily achieved through permit and approval fees and enforcement activities. The revised system is expected to improve stakeholder management, provide enhanced levels of customer service and clearer roles for those involved.

KALPARRIN GARDENS MASTER PLAN

Author:

Brett Jose - Open Space Planning Project Officer, Assets & City Services

Ward:

Bakewell

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In February 2016, Council appointed Hanson Partnership to work with the community and Council to develop a master plan for Kalparrin Gardens, Greensborough. The objective of the project was to prepare a Masterplan for Kalparrin Gardens to guide the future planning and development of the Park to ensure improved facilities, better linkages, access and sustainability in line with its status as a Regional Park. Following the initial consultation process a draft masterplan has been prepared for Kalparrin Gardens which highlights its potential to become a major destination park. It will potentially feature a range of family friendly facilities, which will make the Park conducive for families spending a half-day, or longer together enjoying a park based experience. An extensive and targeted consultation process was undertaken with key internal and external stakeholders to gather information, identify the needs of key users and determine future improvements and development opportunities at Kalparrin Gardens. The draft plans are now ready for the final consultation phase and this report is seeking Council’s endorsement of the draft masterplan so that next phase of consultation may proceed. It is proposed to conduct a public exhibition/consultation process in relation to the draft masterplan between 12 July and 9 August 2016 and invite written submissions during this period. RECOMMENDATION That Council: 1.

Endorse the draft Kalparrin Gardens Master Plan for the purpose of community consultation between 12 July – 9 August 2016

2.

Invite community members to submit written submissions in relation to the draft plan via communication in the Leader Newspaper (Banyule in Brief), Council’s website, Facebook page, direct email to the user groups at Kalparrin Gardens and primary and secondary stakeholders.

3.

Receive a further report following the community consultation period.

CITY PLAN This report is in line with Council’s City Plan key direction to “enhance Banyule’s public and open spaces”.

KALPARRIN GARDENS MASTER PLAN cont’d BACKGROUND Kalparrin Gardens is a large parcel of public open space in Banyule’s central north. It is one of a series of important community parks, which together form a significant linear parkland, within the Plenty River corridor. Also included in this series of parks are Partingtons Flat Reserve, Greensborough Park, Whatmough Park, Yando Street River Reserve and Plenty River Drive Reserve. The Plenty River Trail connects all of these reserves and together they perform an important regional function. Kalparrin Gardens Reserve is unique as it is the only major recreation reserve within Banyule that contains a significant body of still water. It therefore provides an ideal location to create a major destination park for the municipality and the wider region. A substantial stormwater harvesting facility, which provides recycled water for sporting fields in the area, has recently been installed utilising water from the Kalparrin Lake. The reserve is also ideally located to service the residents of the nearby Greensborough Principle Activity Centre (GPAC) now and into the future. GPAC is earmarked for higher density development, which will mean there will be a growing need for high quality facilities in public open space to service the projected higher population, much of which is likely to be living in high and medium density housing with minimal private open space. The draft Banyule Public Open Space Plan recommends that Council prepare a masterplan for each of its major parks and reserves. This will enable public open space to be developed in line with a well- considered plan which has broad community support. The draft Banyule Public Open Space Plan also recommends that Council develop a number of park activity centres/ destination parks at key locations around the municipality. Such park activity centres often feature accessible family play space and comprehensively cater for family needs. Council has already developed three of these “destination park activity centres.” These are at Malahang Reserve Heidelberg West, Warringal Park, Heidelberg and Binnak Park in Watsonia North. A fourth such feature has also recently been designed and is currently being built at Anthony Beale Reserve in St Helena. LEGAL CONSIDERATION There are no direct legal implications arising from the recommendation contained in this report. HUMAN RIGHTS CHARTER Victoria's Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities (the Charter) outlines the basic human rights of all people in Victoria. The Charter requires that governments, local councils and other public authorities comply with Charter and to consider relevant Charter rights when they make decisions. In developing this report to Council, the subject matter has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities. It is considered that the subject matter does not raise any human rights issues.

KALPARRIN GARDENS MASTER PLAN cont’d FUNDING IMPLICATIONS Banyule City Council will need to seek partnerships and funding opportunities with various external stakeholders in order to achieve several of the proposed works identified in the master plan. An estimated cost implementation plan will be produced following final consultation. CONSULTATION The project involved extensive consultation with Kalparrin Garden’s user groups, the community Ward Councillor and Council Officers. Household surveys, stakeholder interviews, community reference group workshops, youth workshop and a community drop-in event were conducted to ensure the Master Plan reflects the needs of the local community. TIMELINES It is proposed that the draft master plan be released for final consultation and comment 12 July – 9 August 2016. A further report will be provided following the consultation period. OFFICER DECLARATION OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST Section 80C of the Local Government Act 1989 (Act) requires members of Council staff, and persons engaged under contract to provide advice to Council, to disclose any direct or indirect interest in a matter to which the advice relates. Council officers involved in the preparation of this report have no conflict of interest in this matter. CONCLUSION The consultation confirmed that Kalparrin Gardens is a highly valued reserve for the user groups and local community in and around Greensborough. Kalparrin Garden’s proximity to the Greensborough Principle Activity Centre (GPAC) and the Plenty River Trail will ensure its ongoing popularity and future demand as one of Council’s premier reserves. The draft Master Plan will guide Council in planning for future enhancements and improvements to serve the local community for decades to come.

FORD PARK MASTER PLAN cont’d BACKGROUND Ford Park, is a 9.5ha local neighbourhood park, incorporating two sports fields a pavilion, grandstand, local play space, areas of native plantings and mature trees. The park is located within metres of the Darebin Creek Corridor and Shared Trail, adjacent to the Parks Depot. Situated within the boundaries of Davidson, Banksia and Harrison Street and Oriel Road, Bellfield, The Park is highly visible being bordered by both local and thoroughfare roads. Ford Park has the potential to become a vibrant local park able to further accommodate informal active recreation as well as passive recreation. The park is home to Bellfield Cricket Club and currently acts as an overflow ground for the Ivanhoe Junior Football Club. Ford Park is located within the suburb of Bellfield bordering West Ivanhoe which is an area experiencing significant change and growth and this change is expected to continue well into the future as the area is included within the Latrobe National Employment Cluster. The draft Banyule Open Space Plan recommends that Council prepare a masterplan for each of its major parks and reserves. This will enable public open space to be developed in line with a well-considered plan which has broad community support. The draft Banyule Open Space Plan also recommends that Council develop a number of park activity centres/ destination parks at key locations around the municipality. Whilst this park is not designated as a key location, it is acknowledged that it is a ‘Significant Local Neighbourhood Park’. As such there is potential to create spaces which attract families for longer stays such as increased tables / seating, picnic areas, informal active features and improved landscape features. LEGAL CONSIDERATION There are no direct legal implications arising from the recommendation contained in this report. HUMAN RIGHTS CHARTER Victoria's Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities (the Charter) outlines the basic human rights of all people in Victoria. The Charter requires that governments, local councils and other public authorities comply with Charter and to consider relevant Charter rights when they make decisions.

TRANSPORT ADVOCACY

Author: Daniel Kollmorgen - Manager Transport, Sustainability and Municipal Laws, City Development Ward:

All

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The level of community concern with transport within Banyule has risen to an intolerably high level, and as a result significant projects are proposed for the region and for specific areas with millions of dollars of funding already allocated and potentially billions for their delivery. Getting the absolute best outcomes for the Banyule community is by: • • • •

Being involved at the earliest possible moment in these projects; Developing our own ideas to feed into processes; Engaging with and activating our communities on the issues; and Fostering relationships and advocating strongly to influence decision makers.

The Hurstbridge Railway line duplication and level crossing removal project has already commenced and Council’s input is required immediately. It is also time to influence thinking and developing advocacy strategies and alliances for the NE Link. Otherwise the Banyule community will most likely have to accept the solutions offered by the various authorities with little or no changes. The time for this action is now. A new high level 12 month position ‘Transport Advocacy Manager’ will help guide Council’s response to the critical transport projects which are currently in progress and being planned. Funding for the position is sought as an additional allocation of $100,000 over and above the 2016/17 budget. Resulting advocacy actions, planning and consultant support could be contributed to by a combination of sources including Council’s allocation towards advocacy, the streetscape works funding for Turnham Avenue and the Grimshaw Street / Flintoff Street project in the 2016/17 capital works program, as well as operational budgets from within the City Development Directorate. RECOMMENDATION That Council: 1.

Approve funding of $100,000 for the creation of a new 12-month role ‘Transport Advocacy Manager’ over and above the 2016/17 budget;

2.

Allocate funds within the existing 2016/17 budget to provide planning and consultant support and facilitate advocacy actions as part of the new 12-month role.

TRANSPORT ADVOCACY cont’d CITY PLAN This report is in line with Council’s City Plan key direction to “maintain and improve Banyule as a great place to live”. BACKGROUND There has been increasing community angst and pressure on transport issues within Banyule over recent years. The issues include concerns about road safety and congestion on arterial roads (particularly Rosanna and Greensborough Highway) through Banyule as well as the need for public transport improvements. The North East Link has been identified in the past (Victorian Transport Plan and Plan Melbourne) as a future infrastructure project that needs to be completed, and in recent times the increase in traffic volumes has caused real safety, amenity and congestion problems along Rosanna Road and Greensborough Highway. The Banyule community is now clearly saying that these problems are not tolerable and need to be addressed. Both the Liberal and Labour parties have pledged $5 million to investigate options for delivering the project should they win government in the upcoming Federal election. The State government has announced the grade separation of the rail crossing of Lower Plenty Road and the duplication of the Hurstbridge railway line between Heidelberg and Rosanna, which is to include a new station at Rosanna. The Level Crossing Removal Authority (LXRA) has been tasked with delivering this project by 2019 and is currently involved in a public process to select commercial partner to work with. This project will change the way the Rosanna neighbourhood centre looks, feels and operates. It is imperative that the project delivers a positive and improved urban design outcome for the community. Also occurring at Rosanna is ongoing streetscape improvements that will require negotiations with many parties including the LXRA, and are also imperative for the future of the Rosanna neighbourhood centre. Significant pedestrian safety improvements are also planned in Greensborough along Grimshaw Street and Flintoff Street and in Heidelberg along the western section of Burgundy Street. Council has committed significant funding towards these projects which are both in need of further advocacy to VicRoads and the State government to see them come to fruition. LEGAL CONSIDERATION There are no direct legal implications arising from the recommendation contained in this report. HUMAN RIGHTS CHARTER Victoria's Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities (the Charter) outlines the basic human rights of all people in Victoria. The Charter requires that governments, local councils and other public authorities comply with Charter and to consider relevant Charter rights when they make decisions. In developing this report to Council, the subject matter has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities.

It is also time to influence thinking and developing advocacy strategies and alliances for the NE Link. Otherwise the Banyule community will most likely have accept the solutions offered by the various authorities with little or no changes. The time for this action is now. Accordingly, it is proposed to create a dedicated transport advocacy position for 12 months to lead the engagement with the various authorities, to coordinate Council’s resources in responding to the various issues arising from the projects and to help organise engagement with the Banyule community when needed. In order to strengthen the negotiating ‘arm’ by adding status it is proposed that the position be titled ‘Transport Advocacy Manager’. FUNDING IMPLICATIONS The current 2016/17 budget does not include funding for a ‘Transport Advocacy Manager’ and as such approval is required for a new position. A 12-month high level position will cost approximately $100,000. TIMELINES Due to the urgency of the need to prepare and respond to the LXRA on the grade separation and duplication project as well as the NE Link it is proposed that the new position commence immediately. OFFICER DECLARATION OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST Section 80C of the Local Government Act 1989 (Act) requires members of Council staff, and persons engaged under contract to provide advice to Council, to disclose any direct or indirect interest in a matter to which the advice relates.

As project planning has already commenced for the grade separation of Lower Plenty Road and the Hurstbridge Rail duplication between Heidelberg and Rosanna, the time for action to influence these projects is now. A new high level 12-month ‘Transport Advocacy Manager’ position is proposed to be funded over and above the 2016/17 budget to progress Council’s views on relevant projects.

D16/52525

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Local Government Act 1989 (Part 8 Division 1) outlines the permissible rating mechanisms and valuation bases to be applied to calculate property owners’ liability for rates. The rating system selected by a Council under the Local Government Act 1989 then determines how Council will raise money from properties within the municipality. The rating system does not influence the total amount of rate revenue to be raised, only the share of revenue contributed by each property. Rates are a significant part of Councils revenue. A Rating Strategy is therefore a key element in the Council exercising sound financial management by which Council systematically considers factors of importance that informs its decisions about the rating system. Some key principles that Banyule City Council adopt are noted below and are explained in further detail within the report attached: • • • •

• • • •

Capital improved value is used for rating valuation purposes (section 4). Differential rating has been adopted (section 6). A Municipal Charge is levied on all ratable properties (section 9). Banyule City Council does not currently levy an annual service charge for the collection and disposal of waste to all ratepayers. A standard service is provided to residential ratable properties and is funded from general rates (section 10). Banyule City Council currently has 12 Special Rate and or Charge schemes in operation, 11 are Promotional Schemes and one is a Constructional Scheme (section 11). No further rebates or concessions than those afforded by the State Government Pensioner Rebate scheme are provided (section 12). A rate rebate is not provided to support the provision of affordable housing by registered agencies (section 13). No incentives are offered for the payment of rates and charges before the dates. Banyule City Council does provide support via deferment or payment arrangements for those experiencing financial hardship (section 14).

The State Government has introduced the Fair Go Rates System (FGRS) which sets out the maximum amount councils may increase rates in a year. For 2016/2017 the FGRS cap has been set at 2.50%. The cap applies to both general rates and municipal charges and is calculated on the basis of council’s average rates and charges. The Rating Strategy has been amended to include the introduction of the Fair Go Rates System. The strategy has remained largely unchanged from 2015 with the notable exception of the introduction of Rate capping. This report seeks consideration and adoption of Council’s Rating Strategy.

Council officers involved in the preparation of this report have no conflict of interest in this matter. CITY PLAN This report is in line with Council’s City Plan key direction to “support people to achieve their economic potential”. BACKGROUND The attached Rating Strategy is to ensure that the Local Government Act 1989 rating objectives of equity and efficiency are achieved. It is important that Banyule City Council has a Rating Strategy in place that is transparent to the community and reviewed annually as part of the budget process. The terms and conditions as outlined in the Rating Strategy as attached are currently being applied. The Rating Strategy is to be considered and reviewed by Council on an annual basis when adopting the annual budget. Banyule City Council has declared as part of the adoption of the budget 2016/2017, the following rates and charges on rateable land: Rating option

THE IMPORTANCE OF DAREBIN CREEK FOR THE LATROBE NATIONAL EMPLOYMENT CLUSTER

Author:

Cr Craig Langdon

Ward:

Olympia

8.1

Notice of Motion

TAKE NOTICE that it is my intention to move: “That Council receives a report about the Metropolitan Planning Authority’s (MPA) ideas brochure for the LaTrobe Cluster. In particular the report is to consider the importance of Darebin Creek’s aboriginal history and environmental merits, and suggest opportunities for the MPA’s ongoing planning to more clearly acknowledge the importance of these issues.”

Explanation The Metropolitan Planning Authority (MPA) does planning for metropolitan significant locations in the Metropolitan Planning Strategy, Plan Melbourne. This includes the LaTrobe National Employment Cluster, which is taking shape as a planning concept for parts of Darebin and Banyule. Darebin Creek runs through the Cluster. The MPA’s recently released newsletter about the Cluster is attached. Darebin Creek, and its surrounds, is an important community asset. It has valued environmental attributes and is important to the aboriginal community. Whilst the MPA’s work is welcomed, the Government’s planning must also ensure local interests are affectively addressed – this includes Darebin Creek’s aboriginal history and environmental merits. Now the MPA has released a newsletter for comment, Council can receive a future report about the MPA’s ideas for the Cluster’s future. This motion is prompting a future council report to consider Darebin Creek, so Council’s formal response to the MPA’s newsletter can highlight the importance of this waterway corridor.

BILL POSTING IN ACTIVITY CENTRES

Author:

Cr Jenny Mulholland

8.2

Notice of Motion

TAKE NOTICE that it is my intention to move: “That Council: 1.

Advocate to the State Government for changes to relevant legislation so Council can fine entities for Bill Posting enabling: (a) (b)

2.

An infringement for each offence; and A recharge for the removal expenses and repair of Council assets (where applicable).

Submit a motion to the next Municipal Association of Victoria (MAV) State Council on this matter.

Explanation Bill Posting is a marketing tactic where flyers are placed in public places. Generally locations are chosen due to their high visibility. Bill Posting has been increasingly problematic in Banyule’s Activity Centres over the last five years, particularly in Heidelberg Central which has experienced several recent instances. Commonly, the entities responsible for the activity include universities, political parties and music festival organisers. In most instances the offenders use high strength glue which, more often than not, damages the asset when the poster is removed. Bill Posting removal poses a high impost to Council from a financial and resource perspective, degrades Council assets and results in increased resident complaints. Bill Posting is covered in State Legislation including the Summary Offences Act 1966 – Section 10 (1) which states that: “Any person who posts any placard bill sticker or other document on or writes or paints on or otherwise defaces any road bridge or footpath or any house building hoarding wall fence gate tree tree-guard post pillar hydrant fire-alarm petrol pump or other structure whatsoever without the consent of the occupier or owner of the premises concerned or of any person or body having authority to give such consent shall be guilty of an offence”. The Penalty for the offence is 15 penalty units or imprisonment for three months.

Ordinary Meeting of Council - 11 July 2016

8.2

Notice of Motion

BILL POSTING IN ACTIVITY CENTRES cont’d The current State Legislation has several limitations including: • • • •

The person in commission of the offence can only be prosecuted, not the responsible entity; To be prosecuted, the person needs to be caught in the act and detained; Only Victoria Police have the power to detain the offender; and In order to penalise the offender, Court proceedings need to be issued.

The current process for prosecuting offenders is onerous from both a Council and Policing perspective. Changes to legislation are required to facilitate the efficient recovery of costs and deter offenders, so that bill positing activity is reduced across Council’s Activity Centres.
