9.1.5 Garden Funding Kondinin Country Club

Name of Applicant: Shire of Kondinin Author: MOW/MPD Budget: 2018/2019 Date: 11th March 2019 SUMMARY/COMMENT: The Shire has been approached by the Kondinin Community Recreation Council to help them finish the garden works and lawn around the new country club extension so that the whole project can neatly wrap up this financial year. KCRC are still able to provide some funding but the difference would require $6000 to be moved from an under expended account to the Kondinin Country Club Garden Works account that has $4000 remaining this financial year. Costings have been completed and the $10,000 should be sufficient to complete this part of the project. Due to the new solar panels the Kondinin Aquatic Centre will probably be under expended this financial year, so it is proposed the $6000 be moved from pool operating expenses account 1112110 to the Kondinin Country Club Garden Account for the purpose of reinstating the garden and lawn. The operating expenses for the pool were budgeted at $80,000 and with 3/4 of the year completed and less than 1 month away from season closure there is 50% remaining. STATUTORY ENVIRONMENT Local Government Act 1995 FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS 2018/19 Budget POLICY IMPLICATION Nil STRATEGIC IMPLICATIONS Nil VOTING REQUIREMENT Absolute Majority

RESOLUTION 3335 Moved Cr Browning Seconded Cr Jones That Council resolves to reallocate $6000 in the 2018/19 budget from account 1112110 Kondinin Pool Operating Expenses to account 1113200 Kondinin Sporting precinct for use in Kondinin Country Club Garden Works (PG004) for the purpose of reinstating the gardens.

9.3.1 GENERAL

Construction Kondinin town drainage is now complete as well as the construction of the streets. Kerbing will start on the 13th of March and should be completed by the 20th March. Asphalt will then soon follow. We have started the drainage in Hyden with things are progressing quite well there, we hope to also have kerb and asphalt laid by the end of the month. Plant Repairs KN66 – Blown Hydraulic Hose KN77 – Fixed Electrical Light Fault KN68 – Replace Hydraulic Hose Graders - 2 New Tyres KN68 – Hydraulic Hose KN2418 – Tyre replacements KN123 – Throttle Cable and Tighten Manifold Bolts KN56 – 30,000km Service KN58 – Burst Hydraulic Hose KN66 – Fan pump Maintenance Grading Now that all the staff are back we are going around and patch grading some of the worst areas and bus routes with school starting. General Bins in the carpark beside the swimming pool have been relocated next to the information bay. Signs have been ordered and will be erected as soon as they arrive and adverts have been placed for our next publication date. Parks and Gardens Council will seriously need to look at a new retic system on the oval at Kondinin. We have had a series of serious burst’s this year simply because the pipe is old and worn out and can’t hold any pressure. It will also we be a great time to lessen the sprinkler distances, so we do not get the dry spots in the oval. Staff The staff have been involved one way or another in assisting with the town drainage and I will say they have stepped up to the plate and have shown an interest and skills in ensuring things keep running smoothly. I would like to make a special thanks to Bob Lockyer and Gary Valenta in the professionalism they have shown in this process.

9.4 CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S REPORT

9.4.1 WA Rail Access Review

Applicant: Shire of Kondinin Author: CEO – Mia Dohnt Date: 12th March 2019 Disclosure of Interest: Nil SUMMARY: In July 2017 an Issues Paper was released by Department of Treasury to assist discussion regarding potential improvement in the Western Australian Rail Access Regime which was established under the Railways (Access) Act 1998 and the Railways (Access) Code 2000. COMMENT: A submission has been prepared to provide the Shire’s contribution to the advocacy to retain grain freight on rail. Local Governments in Western Australia are neither an access seeker nor provider of railway facilities. However, the sector continues to be active in seeking to ensure the on-going provision of efficient and sustainable freight rail in Western Australia, due to:

the adverse impacts on Local Governments, communities and industry of increased reliance on road freight, where rail freight is either not competitive or not available; and

the adverse impact on regional economic development, where freight intensive, export oriented industries are denied efficient, globally competitive supply chains.

The good people from the Lions put on a great BBQ with the proceeds going to community projects. We will be looking to invite the Lions back next year for some of our events to help support this worthwhile organisation. The Triathlon held at the centre on the 16th February was excellent!!! With well over 60 people attending the event!!! A big thanks to Tory and all the volunteers hard work, the competitors and spectators who all made the day possible. Looking forward to next years event!!! Attendance for January was again excellent. The Bill Smoker Room has been put to good use with Kondinin's sporting clubs making use of the room while the Country Club is being finished off.

The centre had it's mandatory Safety Audit conducted by Royal Life Saving Society on the 25th February.
