TAKEN ON NOTICE

Nil

4 PUBLIC QUESTION TIME

1. Mrs Pat Hart - 160 Croyden Road, Roleystone (Chair of the Armadale Landcare

Group and SE Regional Centre for Urban Landcare Inc)

Q1 When is the City of Armadale intending to create a Climate Change Strategy with a

focus on adaption and mitigation encompassing all directorates?

Mayor: The Strategic Community Plan is being reviewed and believe that addressing

climate change is one of the objectives that will be discussed in the workshops coming

up.

Q2 Is the Council aware that planning decisions now being approved or on the table for

approval will be impacting not only on our natural environment, but also on the health

or residents due to climate change?

Q3 Is Council aware that by approving removal of large areas of trees, tree covering in

developments you are not only taking out important habitat and biodiversity you are

actually increasing the heat on the surrounding areas and therefore impacting on

communities or part of our climate change?

Mayor: I believe that council is aware of the impacts created by removing trees and the

heat island effect.

Q4 Is Council aware that when bushland is approved for removal for a development that

there is an offset required by the developer for purchase of similar bushland?

Q5 Is Council aware that the development out for public comment on Reilly Road,

Harrisdale shows that the proposed offset for that banksia woodland is at Wannamal

124km away from Armadale as there are no Banksia woodlands locally remaining that

can be purchased?

Q6 In relation to the tender for water storage injection to aquafers - Are Councillors aware

that the Wungong area is a huge flood plain that the Wungong River which flows into

the Southern River and then into the Canning is 100% dammed?

Q7 Is Council aware that the Wungong/Southern River relies on the winter flows to flush

out the sediment from the deep pools that has built up due to local government’s

inability to address this issue of sediment and that the drains are really modified creeks

and streams?

Mayor: I believe that we do have some understanding of those issues however we will

respond with some answers.


OF COUNCIL

2. Jim Martin - 18 Derry Avenue Mount Nasura

Q1 Lived on Derry Avenue for more than 25 years and have never had a safe walkway or

pathway. 8 years ago I approached Council and was told it was in the 5 year plan. If it

was in the 5 year plan there must have been a budget allocation for it – can you tell me

what’s happened to that budget allocation for this footpath? We are not able to walk

safely as the verge on one side of Derry Avenue is non-existent. If we want to walk

down to Minnawarra Park we cannot safely access it. Council has a duty of care to

make sure residents can travel safely by foot.

Mayor: The question will be taken on notice and a response forwarded in writing.

3. Sam Williams - representing the owners of 615 Narbathong Road, Bedfordale

Re: Development Services Committee Meeting – Item 4.2. - Structure plan for Lot 615

Narbethong Road

Q1 Have worked very closely being the consultant town planner and worked closely with

council staff. Would council be willing to support the officer’s recommendation?

Mayor: The matter is on the agenda for consideration by Council tonight.

4. Pat Hart - 160 Croyden Road, Roleystone

Q1 Re: Narbathong Development - A 50,000 litre tank is to be located on the site rather

than on individual properties. I would like to know who will own that tank once the

development is approved and who will ensure and pay for the 50,000 litres that needs

to be in the tank all the time?

Acting Executive Director Development Services clarified that the 50,000 litre tank is

to be provided on each lot and the responsible party will be the landowner.

Question time closed at 7.08pm

5 APPLICATIONS FOR LEAVE OF ABSENCE

MOTION not opposed, DECLARED CARRIED (13/0)


OF COUNCIL

6 PETITIONS

1 Pathway Request - Derry Avenue, Mt Nasura

A petition signed by 23 Residents was tabled by Cr H J Jones, the prayer of which reads as

follows:

“We are residents of Derry Ave, Mt Nasura. On behalf of the residents we are writing once

again to request a pathway for the safety of the residents of Derry Avenue and surrounding

streets.

We have been residents of 17 Derry Ave since 1977 (42 years). Over the past 10 years we

have made this request in writing and in person at the local council office. We have been told

that this request would be considered in the long term planning.

We believe now that we have enabled more than enough time for planning to be considered.

We would like to remind you of the safety concerns the residence (sic) have with the lack of

safe walking areas for residence (sic), especially school children on this street. Safety

concerns include:

The largest incline section of the road has limited council verge space for residents to

walk on.

The council verge edge is uneven and has soft sand causing risk of trip

The incline and tight corner of the road makes it dangerous to walk on any part of the

road.

Currently the footpath stops at Brian St, the area of concern is following Brian St to end of

Derry Ave heading south.…

MOVED Cr H T Jones

That Council receive the petition and refer it to the Technical Services Committee.
