ILLAWARRA LIFE

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW Preliminary Merger Proposal Community Opinion Poll Results in On Friday 29 January 2015, Wollongong City Council received the preliminary results from a Merger Proposal Community Opinion Poll.

The poll, conducted this week by IRIS, showed 77.5 per cent of those contacted were aware of the State Government’s proposal to merge Wollongong City Council with Shellharbour City Council.

It also found 44.5 per cent of people agreed with merger proposal while 55.5 per cent did not, and 49.7 per cent said the merger proposal was an important issue while 50.3 per cent said it was not.

“While these are the preliminary results, they do provide Wollongong’s Councillors with valuable information about the community’s thoughts on this merger proposal,’’ Wollongong City Lord Mayor Councillor Gordon Bradbery OAM said.

“The full report will be tabled at the Council meeting on Monday night, and will form an integral part of discussions as we work towards a Council resolution on the State Government’s merger proposal.’’

Council resolved at its Extraordinary Council Meeting on Monday 18 January to carry out a public opinion poll on the proposed amalgamation.

Share the Track and enjoy our pathways The City of Wollongong has some of the best cycling tracks and pathways, from our scenic foreshores to the new shared pathways through West Dapto and the track around Lake Illawarra.

Wollongong City Lord Mayor Councillor Gordon Bradbery OAM said that cycling or walking is a healthy and enjoyable option for people of all ages.

“When we cycle or walk we are increasing our happiness and our fitness,” Cr Bradbery said. “Wollongong’s shared pathways help fulfil our community goals of establishing a healthy community in a liveable city as well as building sustainable and affordable transport.

“We have a Share the Track initiative which provides simple guides or etiquette for all people who are using our shared pathways.”

Wollongong City’s Road Safety Officer Naomi Reid is holding a stall on Friday 29 January from 10am to 1pm near North Beach Kiosk to provide information on track etiquette, as well as a guide to cycling throughout the city.

Wollongong Cycling Maps / Guides will be available, along with some giveaways to refuel after a walk / cycle along the shared path.

“We have about 90km kilometres of cycling links through the city and this is increasing each year. Whether you are a seasoned long distance cyclist, a cycle commuter or a leisurely cyclist the city has pathways to suit all levels,” Ms Reid said.

Mayor urges community to stay informed about merger proposal The Mayor of Shellharbour City, Cr Marianne Saliba, has urged residents of both Wollongong and Shellharbour local government areas to consider the loss of local representation, if the State Government’s proposed council merger goes ahead.

The merger proposal includes figures showing that based on having 13 Councillors, Wollongong City Council residents would go from a ratio of one elected Councillor per 15,907 people, to one Councillor representing more than 21,000 residents.

The Shellharbour City community would go from one Councillor per 9,823 residents, to one Councillor for more than 21,000 people.

“As the smaller council facing absorption into a much larger local government body, we fear for the potential loss of services for our community and the dramatic reduction in a local ‘voice’ for our residents,” Cr Saliba said.

“What hasn’t yet come out in any public discussion is that Wollongong City Council residents will also face a significant reduction in local representation.”

Under the Government proposal a merged Council would make decisions on behalf of communities stretching from Helensburgh to the Minnamurra River.

“Wollongong City Council is already a large local government area, and its population would grow by more than 30% under a merger,” Cr Saliba said.

“A merged Council would have even more competing priorities when it comes to deciding where money will be spent. Town centres like Thirroul, Corrimal, Dapto, Warrawong and Unanderra may, in turn, find it harder to attract Council support for local projects.”

Cr Saliba encouraged residents to find out as much as they can about the proposed merger and make their views known through the submission process, which closes on 28 February.

It will also be presented to delegate Greg Wright when he conducts a public inquiry on Wednesday, February 3 into the NSW Government’s proposed amalgamation of Kiama and Shoalhaven councils.

Woonona

The Council’s original submission to IPART in June 2015 found that Council met the OLG guidelines in terms of scale and capacity criteria, and in a majority of key Fit for the Future sustainability ratios. However some ratios would not be achieved in designated timeframes.

Fairy Meadow Wollongong

A review of the original submission was conducted by consultants Morrison Low, a firm on the panel of experts appointed by the OLG to assist councils in developing Fit for the Future proposals.

The review found Kiama Council had made conservative estimates regarding depreciation when compared with other councils, which put Kiama Council at a disadvantage.

Figtree

The review identified potential long term savings of between $1.8 million and $2 million per year if Kiama Council used the average rate of depreciation used by other South East NSW councils.

Kiama Council General Manager Michael Forsyth said Kiama Council was presently in a sound financial position with approximately $41 million in reserves.

Copies of the Share the Track flyer are available at:

• Local Cycling Stores

Coalcliff

The revised Fit for the Future Action Plan will be presented to Council when it meets on Tuesday night.

“Council’s original Fit for the Future proposal was prepared taking into account Council’s 10-year, long-term financial plan,” Mr Forsyth said.

• Destination Wollongong iHub at 93 Crown Street, Wollongong

Stanwell Park

A report commissioned by Kiama Municipal Council shows the council is “Fit for the Future” and can meet benchmarks established by the Office of Local Government (OLG).

The Council had recently overturned approved rate rises after taking advantage of low interest loans provided by the NSW Government.

“It showed all of the relevant financial and sustainability criteria would be met by 2021-22 without immediate and significant proposed rate rises.”

“It is now clear that Kiama Council meets all of the relevant financial and sustainability criteria by 2019-20,” Mr Forsyth said.

Mr Forsyth said Kiama Council had engaged Morrison Low to review its original Fit for the Future proposal prior to the proposed merger with Shoalhaven Council being announced by the NSW Government in December.

The proposed merger has been met with overwhelming opposition by the Kiama community. An IRIS Research survey of more than 500 Kiama residents found 92 per cent of the Kiama community were opposed to amalgamation.

At an extraordinary meeting held at the The Pavilion, Kiama on 12 January, attended by 1400 people, Kiama Councillors unanimously resolved to formally oppose the proposed merger of Kiama and Shoalhaven councils and to make a formal submission.

PROPERTY FOCUS

MARKET view Great news for home buyers! It looks like we will have low interest rates for the next one to two years.

The Reserve Bank of Australia’s Board made an assessment that they felt that inflation rate pressure was well contained and the December Consumer Price Index (CPI) figures seem to match this.

The RBA had a target of 2-3% annual increase of CPI last year, and December’s figures aided with a slight increase of 0.4% as reported by the Australian Bureau of Statistics. At this stage it is the annual rate of CPI increase of just below 1.7%.

This means that we can expect a longer period of sustained low interest rates.

Before the data was released many analysts felt that there was a strong possibility that the RBA may again cut rates at their February meeting. However, after the data was released any hopes of a cut were washed away with the RBA unlikely to cut rates further without a decrease in the Australian employment rates.

The knock on effect of this has been the Australian dollar increasing by half a cent to US$70.34 on Wednesday after this data was released.

In data released by Mortgage Choice in November last year, first home buyers were disillusioned by the state of the market and the economy, which made them feel that property was unaffordable. The rapid rise in house prices played a very large part also in this. However, with a reduction in the amount of foreign investment, which was a key reason for the fast pace of pricing growth, and with stable low interest rates we should see first home buyers returning to the market in the coming months.

The New South Wales economy is also still in a good position.

CommSec last week released their State of the States report, which compares the economic performance of all the states and territories. NSW had the strongest performing economy. A lot of the success of our economy has been placed on

MARKET SNAPSHOT

our housing market which has seen a rapid increase in the amount of homes (freestanding and units) being built. This increase in new housing brings about increased in employment. This in turn has an effect on the retail market as more people have increased disposable income.

This is the sixth straight quarter in which NSW has outpaced its counterparts.

CommSec performs this analysis every quarter. The other areas which helped NSW retain its top position were our top rankings in population’s growth, home loans, unemployment and retail trade.

All of this good news comes just in time for the state government, who are looking to make a final attempt to increase the GST from 10 per cent to 15 per cent. The government argues that this would bring the federal government close to $100 billion to induce a reduction of income tax, and also providing more resources for the state’s health and education systems.

In the proposed system from 2017 to 2020 the federal government will keep all of the revenue except for $6-7 billion which would be provided to the states to fund services.

In turn the federal government will then decrease corporate tax and personal tax.

The federal Labor party is in opposition to the state government’s plans, feeling that it is simply shifting sand and not solving the problem of new revenue creation. Federal Labor believes that the best course of action to increase revenue is to crackdown on multinational tax cheats, increasing tax for the wealthy, and increasing to tobacco taxes.

This new proposal was last spoken about in December when Prime Minster Malcolm Turnbull met with all state leaders, however, at this time the leader wasn’t set to entertain the idea.

Median house prices (3 bed) for the month of January sit at $530,000, whilst in the past week the median has been $519,500.

Median unit prices (2 bed) currently sit at $445,000 for the month of January. In the past week the median has sat at $400,000.

Buying property and council regulations

o Swimming Pools

It is surprising to know that most people when they are ready to sign on the dotted line for the purchase of a property have never considered the regulations that are in place by the local council.

o Additional structures

This really should not be the case as they can have a significant effect on what you are able to do with you property and the future re-sale value.

o Older building may be heritage listed

So before you finalise the purchase of a property here are some points to consider.

o Usage of land

o Materials used on the building or renovation of the property

• “It’s my house; I can do whatever I want with it!”

Sorry, but no. Council regulations are there primarily to ensure that local, state and federal building controls are enforced to ensure that: o structures are safe, o that heritage listings are preserved and o that the value of property’s in the area continue to rise.

• “What sort of things can council regulate?”

Both state and local governments can affect the regulations on your property and the list of things it can affect is long and varied. Here is a short list to keep in mind:

o Trees and plants o Noise o Pets o Fencing o Sigange This list is not exhaustive however, there are a great many things that council/government can oversee.

• “I know all about the regulations, I’ve already had a house elsewhere” Council regulations are not the same from council to council. Each council has its different ways to ensure that they preserve the area and how best to please the community. Therefore it is important not to assume that the regulations will automatically be the same.

Make sure you contact the local council to discuss what you would be looking to do or visit their website where they have the most relevant data.
