Background/Discussion

Reef Catchments has been delivering the Coasts and Communities Program (The Program) in partnership with Mackay Regional Council since 2009. The Program aims to protect and restore the natural environment values of the Mackay coast, whilst allowing for appropriate recreational access and use. The Program was initiated to set a vision for the future of the Mackay coast and engage local communities in coastal management activities. The Program operates on public coastal land under Mackay Regional Council jurisdiction. The Program has several elements which provide an integrated approach to coastal management in the region:

1. Planning (Beach Plans) 2. Prioritisation and implementation of on-ground works 3. Monitoring 4. Community education and engagement (Coastcare activities and events)

There are twenty six (26) identified residential beaches and/or coastal reserves across the Council jurisdiction. Presently, eighteen (18) of these have adopted management plans. The remaining eight (8) are proposed to be completed in the 2013/14 financial year. The first of these eight (8) Beach Plans – Town and Far Beach – has now been drafted, along with a Project Engagement Strategy. The draft Plan follows the same format as existing Beach Plans and identifies the values and pressures within this beach unit, culminating in a list of proposed management activities. Recommended activities include:

• Weed control and rehabilitation of coastal vegetation east of fence lines • Formalisation of three (3) new pedestrian access paths and the upgrade of two (2)

existing access paths • Fencing to exclude public vehicle access and halt the ongoing degradation caused by

vehicles • Revegetation of the northern end of Quota Park

Consultation and Communication

Council received a briefing on the Plan on 7 August 2013. The Project Engagement Strategy is included as an attachment to this report. This strategy has been forwarded to the Community Engagement Group and has been approved by key relevant staff. It is proposed to carry out engagement activities and make the Plan available for public comment for a four (4) week period.

Resource Implications

There are no current resource implications other than minor costs associated with the engagement activities that can be covered by existing budgets. Once the plan is approved, the recommended activities will be prioritised and consideration will be given to funding these activities in line with the existing prioritisation system developed as part of the Natural

Page 6: FINAL MINUTES - Mackay Council · FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 4 SEPTEMBER 2013 MIN/04.09.2013 FOLIO 29448 Officer's Recommendation THAT Cr Greg Martin, Portfolio Councillor for Tourism

FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 4 SEPTEMBER 2013

MIN/04.09.2013 FOLIO 29446

Environment Plan, which takes into account vegetation condition, environmental significance, return on investment and other relevant factors. Funding will potentially be allocated from the Natural Environment Levy to undertake priority activities and grants could be applied for where relevant. Implementation will occur on a prioritised basis as resources become available. Implementation will be undertaken by Council’s Mackay Beach and Habitat Restoration Teams, community groups, volunteers and local residents, with the involvement of government and non-government groups and agencies.

Risk Management Implications

Due diligence will be exercised by Council in seeking public comment on the draft Plan.

Conclusion

The preparation of a Plan for Town and Far Beach is part of the Coasts and Communities Project that Council has been undertaking in partnership with Reef Catchments since 2009. The Plan will document the values and threats to Town and Far Beach and recommend management activities to ensure these areas are managed effectively to protect and restore the natural environment values of the Mackay coast, whilst allowing for appropriate recreational access and use. A Community Engagement Plan has been developed to seek community comment on the draft Plan. Community Engagement will be undertaken and comments received for a four (4) week period.

Officer's Recommendation

THAT Council release the draft Beach Plan for Town and Far Beach for community comment for a period of four (4) weeks. THAT following the consultation period, a report be presented to Council summarising the comments received, and any recommended changes to the Plan prior to its adoption.

Author Chief Executive Officer

Purpose

This report is to request that Council nominate its delegate to attend the Sustainable Economic Growth for Regional Australia (SEGRA) Conference to be held in Coffs Harbour, NSW between the 16th and 18th October 2013.

Background/Discussion

9.4 NORTHERN AUSTRALIA ALLIANCE

Author Chief Executive Officer

Purpose

To present to Council for endorsement the proposal for Mackay Regional Council, as one of five of Northern Australia’s leading Local Government authorities (Mackay, Townsville, Cairns, Darwin and Roebourne), to form a Northern Australia Alliance to undertake an independent economic opportunity analysis for Northern Australia.

Background/Discussion

The identified analysis is proposed to assist in the development and adoption of inter-governmental economic policy for the development of Northern Australia, and as such will influence and/or guide the on-going development of economic planning for Mackay. Northern Australia, generally accepted as being that part of Australia north of the Tropic of Capricorn, is widely considered as having the greatest potential for development of all Australia. Unfortunately, due to population distribution, the Northern part of Australia is poorly represented federally with only 8 of the 150 seat House of Representatives falling within its area. This representation has a significant impact on the development of government policy and the provision of expenditure within the region. As a consequence of the current Federal election, both the Liberal National Coalition and the Labor Party have developed and released policy papers for the development of Northern Australia. These are high-level documents, and identify the need for further analysis to identify specific development opportunities. In response to the need to increase awareness, influence and improve local governments input into the development of policy, and identify development opportunities, it has been proposed that an alliance of Northern Australian Councils group together and commission an independent economic opportunity analysis for Northern Australia. This alliance, proposed to

Page 9: FINAL MINUTES - Mackay Council · FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 4 SEPTEMBER 2013 MIN/04.09.2013 FOLIO 29448 Officer's Recommendation THAT Cr Greg Martin, Portfolio Councillor for Tourism

FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 4 SEPTEMBER 2013

MIN/04.09.2013 FOLIO 29449

consist of the Mackay Regional Council, Townsville City Council, Cairns Regional Council, Darwin City Council and the Shire of Roebourne, will take a leading role in advancing debate, policy development and investment proposals for Northern Australia. The objective of the analysis is to investigate the opportunities that exist for Northern Australia to further develop and grow the economy by capitalising on external factors such as the emerging growth in Asian economies, and domestically where Northern Australia has a competitive advantage over southern states. The purpose is to highlight to relevant stakeholders the key opportunities for Northern Australia and the necessary actions that would be required by government to take advantage of the significant opportunities that exist for Northern Australia. The Cairns Regional Council is taking a leading role in the development and administration of the Northern Australia Alliance, and the commissioning of an independent economic opportunity analysis for Northern Australia. Work is still required to finalise and agree the scope, objectives and procurement governance of the analysis, and council’s commitment to this project should be conditioned on this being completed to its satisfaction. In particular it is expected that the analysis will have a focus on economic and other relationships with Asia, especially given the unique proximity of Northern Australia. This concept is reinforced by the CSIRO's global megatrends identified within its report Our Future World - Global Megatrends that will change the way we live. The six (6) identified megatrends being -

1. More from less. The earth has limited supplies of natural mineral, energy, water and food resources essential for human survival and maintaining lifestyles.

2. Going, going ... gone? Many of the world's natural habitats, plant species and animal species are in decline or at risk of extinction.

3. The silk highway. Coming decades will see the world economy shift from west to east and north to south.

4. Forever young. The ageing population is an asset. Australia and many other countries that make up the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) have an ageing population.

5. Virtually here. This megatrend explores what might happen in a world of increased connectivity where individuals, communities, governments and businesses are immersed into the virtual world to a much greater extent than ever before.

6. Great expectations. This is a consumer, societal, demographic and cultural megatrend. It explores the rising demand for experiences over products and the rising importance of social relationships.

Council is already committed to the representative groups and alliances of LGAQ, Regional Capitals Australia, and the Whitsunday ROC. Council is also aware of the work being done by respective R.D.A.'s working together on a Northern Queensland Strategy. Whilst there are evident interrelationships between these, it is suggested that each has its own unique focus. The LGAQ is an advocacy group for local governments generally through-out Queensland, Regional Capitals Australia is looking to promote the opportunities for larger regional cities through-out Australia, the Whitsunday ROC has a local regional area focus, and the R.D.A.'s Northern Queensland Strategy aims to facilitate collaboration across Governments, private sector and the community. The work of the Northern Alliance will look to tap into opportunities unique to the Northern Australia area, and will only assist to enhance each of these groups and Mackay involvement in each.

Consultation and Communication

Council's Mayor through discussions with identified Council's, including in particular Cairns Regional Council and Townsville City Council. It is proposed that Council's Executive Officer Sustainability and Collaboration be appointed as the liaison for Mackay to work with Cairns Regional Council, and the other identified Council's, in development of the proposal for the analysis. Other areas of Council to be included via the process through the involvement of the Executive Officer Sustainability and Collaboration.

Resource Implications

If commissioned, the conduct of an independent economic analysis of Northern Australia’s development opportunities is estimated to cost $250,000. Council’s share of this cost would be up to $50,000.00. It is proposed that the Northern Alliance should pursue opportunities for alternative funding to assist with this analysis. If successful, such funding will either partially or fully offset the cost of the study. There is presently no allocated monies for this matter within the adopted 2013/14 Budget. Therefore, commitment would be subject to an appropriate funding source being identified in the September Quarterly Budget Review process.

Risk Management Implications

Whilst there is no identified risk for involvement in such a proposal, there is a possible lost opportunity risk of not being involved. There is presently no specific independent economic analysis of the development, and development opportunities, for Northern Australia, therefore a possible lost opportunity to identify and target areas of development and possible funding.

Conclusion

It is suggested that subject to a number of identified conditions, that Council should join the identified Northern Alliance.

the petition not be received. The petitioners are asking for the immediate implementation of an 80 Km/h speed zone on this section of the Bruce Highway with the erection of signage declaring the area a crash zone and a monitored speed zone. They also request immediate planning be undertaken to ensure safer turning bays for North and South bound traffic to all side roads (including Dunrock Road which accesses Chelona State School, Christensens Road and Ethelenes Lane) and the construction of these turning bays as soon as practical. When the Highway pavement is widened in the future, they ask that safe turning access be installed for all residential premises located on this section of the highway. The petition meets the requirements as per the Standing Orders, in that it is legible and has more than 10 signatures. It should be noted that the responsibility for any improvements or changes in speed zones on the Bruce Highway rests with the Department of Transport and Main Roads. As such, it is beyond the scope of Council to initiate any of the requests outlined in the petition. Accordingly, it is recommended that the petition be referred to the Department for their investigation and action. However, the Department should be advised that Council supports the need for the Department to investigate the proposals outlined in the petition.

Consultation and Communication

That the petitioners, through their representative, be informed that Council acknowledges receipt of the Petition and that it has been accepted as a formal submission. The issues raised will be referred to the Department of Transport and Main Roads for investigation and that the Department advise Council of its determination in relation to the matters raised in the petition.

Assessment of MRC 2013-069 (10-03) and MRC 2013-070 (10-04) A mandatory Pre-Close of tender meeting was held on 22 May 2013 for both flood saturation packages 10-03 and 10-04. Tenderers were advised that if they were in contention for both flood packages 10-03 and 10-04 they would need to demonstrate how both packages could be delivered within the timeframes required by Council. It was noted at this meeting that if one contractor was awarded both contracts, Council had concerns regarding the ability to achieving timely delivery. Whilst all tenderers confirmed this ability to meet Council's timeframes this was still a risk that was considered in the recommendations to award the tenders. Both contracts were considered concurrently with the intent to minimise the risk to Council by ensuring that the funding available through the NDRRA program was fully expended prior to the expiration period of 30 June 2014. In consideration of the more significant contract MRC 2013-070 (10-04) the overall assessment based on the qualitative criteria by the Evaluation Panel recommends that Downer EDI Works Pty Ltd be awarded the contract for $6,554,414.71. This assessment was based entirely on the evaluation criteria. Then having made this assessment for MRC 2013-070 (10-04) and subsequently taking into account the risk component identified previously, it was determined that awarding the contract MRC 2013-069 (10-03) to BMD Urban Pty Ltd would be the most advantageous to Council in terms of program delivery.

The QRA approves the scope of works and providing the scope of works constructed matches the approved scope then the QRA will increase their contribution to match the actual cost. QRA are also mindful of the need to ensure that the program can be developed by utilising a range of contractors.

Risk Management Implications

In addition to the concerns expressed previously in the report regarding program timing, significant works will be occurring across the region over an extended period and it is likely that road users will be weary of construction activities. The engagement activities on this project will need to be up to date and regular to maintain information flow.

Conclusion

That awarding the tender MRC 2013-069 (10-03) to BMD Urban Pty Ltd for the amount of $3,895,034.23 and tender MRC 2013-070 (10-04) to Downer EDI Works Pty Ltd for the amount of $6,554,414.71 represents the most advantageous outcome and demonstrated value for money to Council based on their demonstrated understanding of Council’s requirements, their experience, capacity and resources to provide the services to the specified quantity and quality as specified in the RFT and as importantly the risk to Council to ensuring that the NDRRA program is completed by 30 June 2014.

Purpose

To present to Council for approval, tenders submitted for MRC 2013-063 Roundabout Upgrade Archibald – Paradise – Connors Intersection.

In order to meet the additional costs associated with this major project, funding will need to be provided from within the existing Capital Works Program for 2013/14. The issues that have been considered in the determination of which 2013/14 project to defer included project timing, preliminary service relations required, status of detailed design documentation and the ability to complete the project within the 2013/14 financial year. As such, it is proposed to defer the following projects: Shakespeare Street Culver Replacement (between Macrossan Street and Rae Street) An amount of $1,225,043 has been provided in 2013/14 for the replacement of box culverts that are in a state of deterioration. Works will not be undertaken prior to May 2014 due to the need to finalise design and construction options. Accordingly, $300,000 is available to transfer to this roundabout project and still enable the drainage project to commence toward the end of the current financial year with the reallocation of funding to be considered in the 2014/15 financial year. Oak Street Land Acquisition (Maple Drive) An amount of $200,000 has been provided in the 2013/14 financial year to initiate land purchases in Oak Street as part of the long term objective of improving traffic flow in the area of Oak Street and Maple Drive. Of this provision $140,000 is proposed to be transferred to the roundabout project with the remaining $60,000 utilised to progress initial design objectives.

Risk Management Implications

Significant works have occurred along Connors Road over an extended period and it is likely that adjacent businesses and road users will be weary of construction activities. The engagement activities on this project will need to be up to date and regular to maintain information flow.

FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 4 SEPTEMBER 2013

MIN/04.09.2013 FOLIO 29465

The adjacent works along Connors Road should be substantially complete by the time this contract commences however we will work with BMD to minimise impacts. Risks associated with unsuitable subgrade have been mitigated with provisions allowed for within the contract schedules. Known services have been identified and relocated accordingly during the design phase. Clearance over the MWRP sewer rising main has been gained with the road pavement being built up through the roundabout. With the expected commencement and duration of the project, there is a risk of wet weather affecting the works. It is estimated that the contingency amount for this project will be sufficient to cater for unforeseen circumstances arising out of the project.

Conclusion

That awarding the contract to Vassallo Constructions Pty Ltd represents the most advantageous outcome to Mackay Regional Council based on their demonstrated understanding of Council’s requirements, their experience, capacity and resources to provide the services to the specified quantity and quality as specified in the RFT.

Officer's Recommendation

1. THAT the re-measurable schedule of rates tender submitted by Vassallo Constructions Pty Ltd for $4,090,365.00 (excluding GST) be accepted for MRC 2013-063 Roundabout Upgrade Archibald – Paradise – Connors Intersection.

2. THAT the funds required to complete the project be made available within the

2013/14 Capital Works Program by deferring $300,000 from the Shakespeare Street drainage project and $140,000 from the Oak Street land acquisition project.

Background/Discussion

Mackay Regional Council sought submissions from suitably experienced and financially viable businesses for the Lease of the Cafe premises located in the Artspace building. The initial term of the lease is for a period of three (3) years with the Option of two more terms at three (3) years each. Tenders were invited on the 20th July 2013, via Council's website and advertised locally in the Daily Mercury. The following responses were received by the closing date of Tuesday 13th August 2013:

a) Chloe Pty Ltd b) SoulFull Catering c) Three Hats Catering

An initial compliance check was conducted by the evaluation Panel on the 15th August 2013 to identify if the submissions were conforming to the immediate requirements of the Request for Tender (RFT). All submissions were progressed through to the qualitative criteria assessment on the basis that terms, conditions and mandatory requirements of the RFT had been met. The weighting attributed to each qualitative criteria was:

a) Financial Capacity 40% b) Respondents Experience 20% c) Demonstrated Use of Premise 30% d) Local Content 10%

The fees pertaining to the Lease, as detailed in the draft Lease included in the Tender documents are as follows (Excl GST): “Foodspace Turnover Licence Fee” the amount by which the agreed percentage of the Licensee’s Gross Sales of the Foodspace Premises exceed the amount of the Foodspace Licence Fee payable in the year that is:- Foodspace Turnover Licence Fee = Agreed Percentage of Gross Sales for the Foodspace Premises minus Foodspace Licence Fee.

Where the answer is a Positive Amount

Turnover Licence Fee = 10% x GS Where the Licence Fee is the Licence Fee to be paid in respect of the preceding calendar month.

The qualitative criteria assessment was carried out by the Evaluation Panel on 20th August 2013, with the Evaluation Panel scoring the tenders according to the evaluation matrix. All applicants were assessed against the qualitative selection criteria. Specific criteria were weighted according to their importance as perceived and agreed by the Evaluation Panel. Relative weightings were published within the RFT. Due to the maintenance works currently being undertaken in the Café by Mackay Regional Council, it is recommended that the commencement date for this contract is Tuesday 1st October 2013.

Consultation and Communication

Prior to releasing the Request for Tender, Council's operational programs were requested to provide input and specific requirements which were then detailed in the tender documentation. The evaluation of the tender was conducted by:

Property Co-ordinations Officer Property Services Contracts Coordinator Procurement and Plant Director Artspace Manager Convention Precinct and Events Manager Customer Service

Resource Implications

Should the Officer recommendation be adopted there are no resource implications to consider. However should the premises remain empty / unlet there will be a financial impact. Council has budgeted to receive $22,000 in commissions from cafe trading this financial year. This was based on the previous licensees trading figures, and the closure was unanticipated. $3000 of commission arrears has been received into this financial year's budget, and it is anticipated that should the cafe re-commence trading in October / November this year, the remaining $19,000 of budgeted income should be received.

Risk Management Implications

There are generally no risk management implications to consider. However in this case, should the cafe not be leased as recommended it becomes doubtful that Artspace can increase its current level of visitations particularly on weekends. A decline in visitations to the gallery of approximately 15% is experienced when the cafe is closed.

Conclusion

That awarding the contract to SoulFull Catering represents the most advantageous outcome to Mackay Regional Council based on the ability to perform the works requested.
