The following items may be of interest:
- A further petition
regarding Leicester Street park and dogs off leash
- A further call to reduce the
extent of Parking Controls in Goodwood
- 2017/18 Community Event Sponsoring:
this saw many worthwhile initiatives and some ongoing funding for events
that are already up and running but need some monetary and/or in-kind
support
- Council Assessment Panel:
this has been debated in the parliament and the Panel will continue to
exist at Council level but with only one elected member. When you lodge a
Development Application from Oct it will be assessed by the new, five member
panel. The Minister is hoping this will result in fewer refusals, even
though there have been hardly any, and more trees chopped down. Rufus
Salaman will be the Council rep and I will stand in as his proxy.
- Greening Verges: A great response
from residents meant that the renewal (dolomite to loam) program was over
prescribed. Council will add the extra dollars so that all applicants will
be able to enjoy the benefits of a green verge. Each resident must plant,
water and maintain their new verge at their own expense.
- Integrated Transport Proposal;
this has been a while coming and gives direction for the future. It does
not dig deep to the day to day stuff.
- Calls for members to
nominate for various LGA representatives, including the Cat and Dog Management
Board, The Local Government Finance Authority.
- The adoption of the City of
Unley Community Plan 2033 including a four year delivery plan: this has
taken a lot of work and is generally satisfactory. However, some of the
language used, in my opinion, is pompous and unnecessary. It was passed
without my support
- Motion from Cr Salaman
asking that Council write to John Rau and tell him how much residents and
Council dislike his Spot Rezoning. On my suggestion we will also try to
meet with him to tell him what we really think
