DECLARATIONS OF INTEREST

The Mayor adverted to the necessity for Councillors and staff to declare a Pecuniary Interest/Conflict of Interest in any item on the Business Paper.

Councillor David Citer declared a less significant non pecuniary conflict of interest with item GB.8 Consideration of submissions to the exhibition and Public Hearing of Planning Proposal to Rezone and Reclassify land at 259-271 Pacific Highway Lindfield. Councillor Citer was the previous manager of KYDS and occupied an office for seven and half (7.5) years on that site. Although it has been almost two (2) years since Councillor Citer resigned from KYDS he has recently been having discussions with the KYDS board, in his capacity as a board member, as to alternative accommodation options which he felt has fettered his discretion with this item, advising he would leave the Chamber when the matter is debated.

minutes from the Mayor

224	Anti-social behaviour at Betty Archdale Park, Wahroonga File: S05692 Vide: MM.1
	Residents of Wahroonga, who live next to Betty Archdale Park, have over the past few months informed me of the anti-social behaviour that has been occurring in the park on a daily basis. Youths and students from the local schools have been congregating at the Post Office end of the park under the Council shelter and causing a major nuisance and concern for residents. The residents have felt threatened and have on a couple of occasions called the local Police for assistance. However, due to the limited resources and other issues that the Police are required to attend, it is not possible for them to always provide immediate assistance. The youths recently set on fire one of the refuse bins in the park and the nearby residents were required to extinguish it. I have contacted the Principal of a nearby private school to seek support in preventing this type of behaviour from the students and this has provided some assistance in reducing the problem. I also recently attended a meeting with the residents and the local Crime and Safety Officer from Hornsby Police to discuss the options for dealing with the issues. The Police have recommended that the shelter be dismantled and the tables and chairs be removed so that it does not provide a haven for the youth groups to congregate and cause a nuisance for local residents. The Police have also recommended improved lighting and CCTV surveillance. The School Liaison Officer will undertake to contact the schools in the area and discuss this unacceptable vandalism with the students.
	Resolved: A.   The shelter in Betty Archdale Park be dismantled and stored at Council’s depot for possible re-use in the future or at an alternative site. B.   That Council removes all graffiti as a matter of priority and replaces the bin. C.   That CCTV surveillance and improved lighting be investigated. D.   That monitored regular security patrols be undertaken by Council’s Security contractor over the next four weeks. E.   That a report then be brought back to Council in October advising on the situation post the removal of the shelter. CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY

225	Refrigerated Van for Meals on Wheels File: CY00377/5 Vide: MM.2
	The Rotary Club of Roseville Chase has undertaken to assist the Meals on Wheels of Ku-ring-gai and Hornsby with the purchase of a new refrigerated van for the delivery of prepared meals from their kitchen in Turramurra to distribution points from Hornsby in the north to Chatswood in the south, St Ives in the east to Galston in the west. The total cost of the refrigerated van is $49,500 ($36,000 for the van and $13,500 for the refrigeration unit). The Club has been working on this project since earlier this year and has now in hand approximately $40,000. This has been achieved by a very generous grant from the Federal Government of $20,000 and the remaining from Rotary Clubs of the district and the Rotary Foundation. While the Club appreciates that Council helps Meals on Wheels in many ways such as accommodation, kitchen upgrades etc, it seeks some financial help to bridge the balance needed. On completion of the purchase, financial contributors will be acknowledged in sign-writing on the van as well as an official handover to Meals on Wheels at a small function. Although Council itself does not currently have the capacity to fund the project, I seek your support to make a grant of $3,500 from the mayoral donations fund. Furthermore, Mr Lewis has expressed his appreciation for the offer, noting that it will greatly assist the project, and that Council will be recognised as a key contributor.
	Resolved: That Council pledge a grant of $3,500 from the mayoral donations fund to the Rotary Club of Roseville Chase in support of the purchase of the refrigerated van for Meals on Wheels to be donated after the amount of $46,000 has been reached. CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY

Motions of which due Notice has been given

238	Fencing around bushland areas File: S07967 Vide: NM.1
	Notice of Motion from Councillor Malicki dated 29 August 2016 Council owns many areas of very special vegetation and over the past years much of this is being individually fenced, in particular in Comenarra Ward. I have been concerned that fencing of several of these areas has brought considerable distress to residents and that in most areas there has been no consultation and no consideration of the views of residents. The Blue Gum High Forest adjacent to The Glade Oval was fenced several years ago. Residents felt that they had been cut off from bushland to which they had always had access, and they were unhappy with the type of fencing chosen which they felt was inappropriate to the area. In South Turramurra between Auluba Ovals 2 and 3, bushland previously accessible to all residents was fenced off with just a narrow pathway between. Residents said they felt "alienated" from the bushland and that the fencing was far too high and visually dominating. They felt there were safety issues because of the narrow walkway through an area previously unfenced. Similarly fencing has been installed around bushland at Mimosa Oval and just two weeks ago adjacent to the beautiful Sheldon Forest. The Warragal Rd frontage to Sheldon Forest is around a hundred metres in length and although local residents were notified that fencing was to be installed, it was to be "strategic installation of non intrusive timber fencing". There was no consultation about location or type of fence to be installed either with residents or Ward Councillors. In fact the fencing at Sheldon forest is extremely intrusive and completely changes the character of the forest as seen from the roadway. It is located at the top of a steep slope and as no one accesses the forest here due to the slope I have questioned the necessity for any fence. Each of the fences installed around bushland in Comenarra was of a different height, style and materials. I move: 1. That for all future fencing around council owned bushland advance consultation must occur with local residents and Ward Councillors. 2. That residents in the streets surrounding the Warragal Road frontage to Sheldon Forest all be sent a letter asking for their views on the new fencing and similarly those properties and streets adjoining the forest on the Pymble side. The results of this late consultation be sent to Councillors by memo. 3. That in future all fencing around council's bushland be of a consistent height, style and materials. 4. That the cost of the fencing in South Turramurra, Mimosa Oval and on both sides of Sheldon Forest be reported back to Councillors by Memorandum.
	Resolved: (Moved: Councillors Malicki/Citer) That the above Notice of Motion as printed be adopted. For the Resolution:                The Mayor, Councillor Szatow, Councillors , Citer, Malicki, Armstrong and Berlioz Against the Resolution:         Councillors Anderson, Fornari-Orsmond and Ossip

241	Traffic Management File: TM9/08 Vide: NM.2
	Notice of Motion from Councillor Ossip dated 29 August 2016 St Ives, more than any other suburb in Ku-ring-gai, has suffered the adverse consequences of overdevelopment over the past decade. Extrapolating data from the 2011 census, there was an 8% increase in the amount of dwellings in St Ives between 2006-2011. Accompanying this increase in dwellings was an increase in population of 1,311 over that same time period. Of course, both of these figures don’t take into account the substantial development and population growth which has taken place since the census was conducted and the development which is still scheduled to take place. The determination to cram hundreds more dwellings into St Ives has not been accompanied by adequate planning and necessary investments in infrastructure. Consequently, existing infrastructure is under greater strain than ever before. Of particular concern to residents is the increased traffic congestion being experienced in St Ives – not surprising given that St Ives does not have a train station and has a high level of car ownership and usage. I am regularly contacted by residents of St Ives who are concerned with traffic issues in local streets surrounding the St Ives town centre and near new multi residential developments. I note that existing traffic conditions in Stanley Street, Yarrabung Road, Memorial Avenue, Cowan Road, Porters Lane, Shinfield Avenue and Killeaton Street are of particular concern to residents. Council staff undertook traffic and speed counts last year at various locations in St Ives around the town centre and concluded that there were increases in traffic volumes at most intersections, with the following intersections showing greater than expected increases: 1.   Memorial Avenue at Village Green Parade and Killeaton Street 2.   Cowan Road at Village Green Parade and Kanoona Avenue 3.   Stanley Street at Horace Street/Link Road and Lancaster Avenue 4.   Carbeen Avenue at Killeaton Street and Mungarra Avenue Background In 2005, Council commissioned a traffic study for each of the Town Centres to assess the traffic impacts of proposed development under both LEP 194 and the proposed Town Centres LEP. The study was to assess the likely traffic impacts of current and future development around the town centres and provide recommendations for improvements to be approved by the Roads and Traffic Authority (now Roads and Maritime Services) under a Section 62 notification process and included in the Contributions Plan. Council adopted the St Ives Town Centre Traffic Improvement Plan at its meeting of 25 August 2005. The estimated total cost of the Traffic Improvement Plan is approximately $1.6 million of which $762,000 has been included in the Contributions Plan. Council staff have previously noted that Council does not have sufficient funds to implement the traffic management proposals. Some of the proposed works are considered to have a direct relationship to development under the Town Centres LEP and are accordingly reliant upon developer contributions for funding. At this stage, there has been limited development works commenced in St Ives under the Town Centres LEP. Additionally, a significant proportion of the proposed funding for the plan is contingent on the redevelopment of the St Ives Shopping Village. Therefore, Council has not collected significant funding for any of the proposed works. Finally, Council only provides approximately $150,000 for traffic capital improvement works. These are prioritised under Council’s adopted Traffic and Transport Policy and Ten Year Traffic Plan. Recommendation It is accordingly apparent that whilst the traffic situation in St Ives is deteriorating, there is no definite timeframe on implementing the St Ives Town Centre Traffic Improvement Plan. This is of great concern given that the existing traffic congestion will only be exacerbated as constructed dwellings become fully occupied and further development takes place. Therefore, it is of crucial importance that Council takes action to address existing and anticipated traffic issues within St Ives. Failure to fund traffic management in St Ives will significantly reduce resident amenity now and in the future. I accordingly move that: 1.       A report be brought back to Council which examines alternate sources of funding for the St Ives Town Centre Traffic Improvement Plan. 2.       The report provide short-term options for alleviating traffic congestion in Stanley Street, Yarrabung Road, Memorial Avenue, Cowan Road, Porters Lane, Shinfield Avenue and Killeaton Street. The following members of the public addressed Council on this item: C Manias B Aquilina
	Resolved: (Moved: Councillors Ossip/Citer) That the above Notice of Motion as printed be adopted. For the Resolution:                Councillors Citer and Ossip Against the Resolution:         The Mayor, Councillor Szatow, Councillors Malicki, Armstrong, Berlioz, Anderson and Fornari-Orsmond No decision was taken in respect of the above matter as the Motion when put to the vote was LOST

QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

244	Update on Netball Court Upgrade at Turramurra File: S10248 Vide: QN.1
	Question Without Notice from Councillor David Armstrong
	The residents working group at Turramurra for the netball court upgrade. What is the current update? Answered by Director Strategy & Environment The Director Strategy & Environment advised he would take the question on notice.

245	Gordon Library Staff Car Parking Arrangements File: S10168 Vide: QN.2
	Question Without Notice from Councillor Elaine Malicki
	Has any thought been given to moving Gordon Library staff parking into the 828 Pacific Highway parking area? As this will leave parking under the library for library patrons, because at present only Library staff have access to parking on site, and patrons must walk. Answered by Director Strategy & Environment The Director Strategy & Environment advised there is no spare capacity under 828 (Pacific Highway) in fact we are looking at removing staff in the short term from that building all together.

246	Gordon Library Staff Parking in Wade Lane Carpark File: S10168 Vide: QN.3
	Question Without Notice from Councillor Elaine Malicki
	I understand that Gordon Library staff have used parking at the Wade Lane Carpark during the course of this year. I wonder how much, or can you tell me how much this has cost? Answered by Director Strategy & Environment The Director Strategy & Environment advised he would take the question on notice, but it is fair to say the priority is given to people who want to book those spaces permanently on a paid basis.
