10. Presentation: Metropolitan partnerships - Update on the Metro Partnerships, the Economy Working Groups and their proposed work. Messrs Mark Curry DELWP and Steve Booth DEDJTR attended for this item and thanked the Committee for the opportunity to update them on the Metro Partnerships. Mr Curry provided context for the development of Metro Partnerships (MPs):

part of a broader regional governance arrangement to replace the 5 Regional Management Forums (RMFs). 9 partnerships in regional Victoria started 4-5 months ago.

6 metro partnerships are proposed for Metro Melbourne to start in March/April 2017; currently looking for community representatives

Led by Gavin Jennings MLC, Special Minister of State & the Hon. Lily D’Ambrosio MP, Minister for Suburban Development.

Acknowledged the significant history of IMAP, WIMEDA and other groups already established. Aim to utilise and work with these existing structures

Different from the RMF model which had lots of state government members. The MP has 1 Deputy Secretary from State Government to field and represent the broader state government roles.

3 levels of government to be represented on each Partnership – State Government; Local Government (all CEOs); Commonwealth rep from RDA; and up to 8 business and community reps; engaged to look at issues and priorities in partnership.

DELWP have called for EOI of nominees from community & business & are currently assessing 180 applications

Looking for balance across the 6 partnerships.

Public servants and councillors are excluded

Ministers will appoint community & business representatives & finalise these around February 2017. Cabinet is to endorse these, followed by an induction process.

There is no equivalent regional assembly process into Cabinet for Metro Melbourne to field or consider priorities.

5 year rolling plans are to be established for jobs, services and infrastructure, with a comprehensive range of priorities and initiatives. Plans are to be completed around July. There will be further thinking through the nature of these in the first year, and will be amended with more

input from the partnerships. Steve Booth noted the following:

DEDJTR is progressing initiatives for the Minister for Major Projects and Minister of Industry. Considering how we leverage infrastructure projects to get their maximum impact in an economic development sense?

Economy Working Groups are to: o Bring councils and DEDJTR together to leverage projects o Work with what flows out of Plan Melbourne in the precincts o Focus on a place-based economy and social development through the Economy Working

Groups

Council’s 4 year plans and State Government’s 5 year plans are very similar at the working level. Aim to be more aligned at Council and State levels so that we are more effective working together.

Want to work with the councils in the Inner Melbourne and the Inner South partnerships, with IMAP and through involving regional advocacy groups such as Lead West.

There are a lot of issues to consider in these regions e.g. Chadstone/Caulfield, South Melbourne, Fisherman’s Bend, Arden-Macaulay.

All work over the next 5-10 years will be city shaping work with input through the MPs and Economy Working Groups.

Questions/Comments What is the logic behind the changes in boundaries? A: Mr Curry noted the MPs aim to balance commonalities of interests amongst groups, create MPs of broadly similar population groupings, and keep the integrity of local government boundaries. Government wanted Maribyrnong in the west. Densification makes it more like Melbourne. RMFs were ineffectual and role of new partnerships is not clear, especially introducing business and community reps. Is MP’s role consultative, advisory, or an information exchange? Councillors and Council liaise with Government on a daily basis. Where do the partnerships sit within this context? Don’t see this Metro Partnership influencing the work we do in those local government entities (IMAP and Lead West) that we set up and we control. Is this duplication of effort? A: Mr Curry advised he was conscious of utilising existing work and not duplicating effort. The MP’s are largely for information exchange between portfolios. Not decision-making about resources, budgets etc. MPs supported projects will achieve direct visibility into State Government and go through consideration through the budget process. Over time, greater reflection of local priorities will be achieved. MP’s enable a greater influence on State Government spending decisions: an additional channel, not usurping Councils – but looking at the regional scale. Mr Booth acknowledged limitations of the RMFs. The various organisations need coordination to get real value. Metro Partnerships provide a greater coordination function to help Councils and State Government make decisions. Most transport projects are in the IMAP area. Melbourne gets 800,000+ people coming into work each day from the other council areas in IMAP. The CBD is a focus of interest. West transport routes are already overloaded. Need Footscray and Arden and Caulfield to be destination points. Don’t get this till get agreement between Councils on what this means in practice. If want to be a polycentric city, we need these conversations. Agree with Maribyrnong’s view that it’s important to have regional views, shared issues for Councils and mechanisms to feed into State Government. Structurally the partnerships will make that challenging with 5 CEOs and up to 8 community reps who are self-selecting. The mechanics of how regional clusters of Councils are engaged will affect the outcome, especially when CEOs are outnumbered. A: Mr Curry noted that in the Inner Metro area, with few CEOs, community reps would be less than 8. Partnerships could hold workshops and include councillors. City of Stonnington made an approach to stay in the inner area which was not achieved. We work collaboratively in IMAP and will continue. But it seems the jury is already out on another body being established. CEOs are not auspiced to agree or disagree, or have the ability to commit a Council to something. There are challenges with this structure – depends if 4 or 8 business views could be different to collective Council views. Why are Councillors not included?

A: Mr Curry noted the Minister has a strong position on this. Looking for new and additional voices. Councillors have their own voice. This is a complementary channel in addition to council avenues; MPs supplement the discussion with community and business reps who wouldn’t normally have a view. Mr Booth said the MPs are providers of advice. Ministers and Councillors make decisions. There is a distinction made between providing advice and having the final say. Is there opportunity for observers such as the IMAP Executive Officer to attend? A: Mr Curry said Yes. Also CEOs from other neighbouring partnerships could observe. Mr Booth noted the IMAP Executive Officer would be part of the Economy Working Group. The Chair noted we were out of time and thanked the presenters for their comments.

11. Action 5.5 Infrastructure development – IMAP Regional Active Sport and Recreation Facilities Planning Study project. Mr Dale Stewart and Ms Azadeh Mousavi, City of Melbourne attended for this item. Mr Stewart went through a PowerPoint presentation. He acknowledged and thanked Azadeh for her work and noted her contract was due to finish on 23 December. He advised:

the first stage of information coordination and analysis was complete.

a database holding 23 types of sport ground, pavilions, sport & recreation centres are mapped and centrally held on one database. Structure is established.

the distribution of sports facilities are mapped and we can drill down for details on each.

all attributes are given for each ground and pavilion.

some initial analysis has been undertaken and one case study was presented on cricket participation

Mr Stewart noted we need to decide how the councils will manage the data. SRV has done some work around sport participation and would like to have it included. It would help to keep Azadeh for longer to undertake additional analysis on this work.

The Executive Officer clarified that the budget funding for the data collection stage was spent and $150K was available for the Phase 2 consultant planning work. Some funds from this could be used for staff. She noted the VPA have indicated they may assist with additional funding if that left the funding short for stage 2.

Comments/Questions Mr Wall said growth and interest in the sport is also important as well as player numbers and population growth forecasts. He see large increases occurring in soccer and declines in other codes. This data is really useful for planning purposes and helps Councils make decisions on which assets to develop. Cr Reece noted this was a fantastic exercise and asked if there was a user interface to access the data. Mr Stewart advised the project would hand all data over to Councils and will determine how to deal with it and keep it up to date. A workshop was planned for 21 December to discuss these aspects. 11.1 That the IMAP Implementation Committee resolves to:

a. Note the progress on Stage 1 of the IMAP Regional Active Sport and Recreation Facilities Planning Study project;

b. Approve further funding of approximately $8,000 from the project budget in order to complete Stage 1 and ensure the information is handed over to the IMAP Councils with an agreed maintenance methodology; and

c. Confirm the importance and priority of this project to ensure that clear direction is provided for officers and management across all the IMAP Councils

12. IMAP Three year Implementation Program The Executive Officer tabled a one page summary of the budget for the Three Year Implementation Plan with the inclusion of the current year and forecasted carry forward to assist the Committee. She noted

The City of Yarra has given their approval to the 5 priority projects listed in the plan for Year 1.

The funding request is on the same basis as 2016-17.

Once projects are confirmed in principle, then the Steering Groups can further determine the

project briefs, staff resourcing, timeframes and funding and come back to the committee with more detail at a later date.

Comments /Questions Ms Slatter noted her support for the projects and provided a handout with additional detail for consideration for the Whole of Waste Cycle planning project. Ms Ferres-Miles provided further advice to the committee about opportunities for IMAP to link into the Waste Forum group and access funding in the Sustainability Fund - which could change the brief for this project. Inner Melbourne has a landfill cap, and produces more organic waste than any other catchment, which has the potential to generate future revenue. Mr Roberts commented that the detail provided fitted within the overall broad objective of the project. He preferred no change to the current brief at this time as Councillors were still being consulted, but suggested the handout material be referred to the Steering Group to consider as part of the detailed brief for the committee’s future consideration. Ms Slatter agreed with this approach. Mr Roberts noted it was critical that IMAP put a case forward for funding from the State Government and he supported the intent of the proposal. The Executive Officer offered to assist Councils with briefing their Councillors on the IMAP Projects. 12.1 That the IMAP Implementation Committee resolves to:

a. Note this update on progress on the Inner Melbourne Action Plan, and

b. Approve year 1 of the updated IMAP Three Year Implementation Plan; and note approval in principle for the following 2 years pending further advice in February 2017;

c. Approve the request for each of the IMAP Partner Councils to make provision for funding in the 2017-18 budget as follows:

IMAP Annual Contribution: $57,000 per Council in line with the current year

IMAP Share of Operational Costs: $38,000 per Council (Estimate – to be confirmed)

(Total $95,000 per IMAP Council)

MOVED MR ROBERTS / Ms Weatherson

A vote was taken and the MOTION was CARRIED Actions: Refer the Waste cycle project proposal tabled by CoPP to the IMAP Environment Steering Group for consideration Advise the IMAP Councils of the 2017-18 budget request.

13. OTHER BUSINESS a. Metro Waste & Resource Recovery Group re CEO briefing on new plan and Board vacancy

The committee noted that this matter had been discussed as part of the discussion on item 12.

b. Infrastructure Victoria release of discussion paper on ports and release of transport network pricing paper

Mr Wall advised that he attended the Infrastructure Victoria (IV) workshop on ports where the discussion was on options for a second port. In the Hastings option the water based issues were good, and in the Werribee option land based issues were advantageous. Of note that is in all major cities of the world where the ports have been part of the central city, they have now moved on. Work is continuing in this space. Mr Sayers noted there are a number of Infrastructure Victoria discussion papers around and the new 30 year plan was available for consideration. It was generally agreed each Council would comment as appropriate and that IMAP as a group could not add anything to this discussion.

ITEMS 3 IMAP Councils Data Requirements Project (CLUE)

Mr Austin Ley attended for this item. He noted that:

this study is the step prior to undertaking the “CLUE” Project and investigates what research is being used by the IMAP Councils and for what purpose.

Staff input from Economic Development (ED) and Strategic Planning (SP) has been achieved (not from the wider Council departments)

Seeks clarity on whether to concentrate on these 2 areas or go through budgets to look for the wider use of data.

Questions/Comments City of Yarra mainly need economic and strategic planning data quickly as these areas are under pressure. Data assists greatly with Structure Planning activities, and for greater detail on confined areas, creative

Page 17: Agenda - IMAP - Homeimap.vic.gov.au/uploads/Meeting Agendas/2017 February... · 2017-02-20 · 24 February 2017 1 Agenda Inner Melbourne Action Plan Implementation Committee Meeting

clusters, silos etc. Yarra do not have significant funding for this, but need a spatial tool and greater clarification on whether CLUE is the right tool. Want to get qualitative data so can assess how businesses operate, employment patterns,, segmentation of industries etc City of Melbourne are interested to know what data in CLUE is considered the most useful. City of Stonnington data needs are not necessarily all associated with CLUE and data/analysis would still need to be purchased. Agrees with Yarra, that some data would really assist in understanding of specific areas. Data is not needed for the whole municipality, useful for key growth areas. CoS has limited industrial space showing little change; residential based businesses are becoming important. Looking for a more compact version of CLUE, not requiring a large research department. Need to focus on a solution that supports ED and SP but provides the return on investment. Mr Ley advised CLUE provides detail on business activity in non-residential areas. The Urban Manufacturing project has identified categories and residential areas where more detail is required on those businesses described as ‘Other”. CLUE looks at all businesses from a land perspective. iCloud businesses would need to have a location in order to be picked up by CLUE researchers. He noted City of Melbourne developed CLUE. VicCLUE took the model further until the State Government pulled out. Ms Vinot noted that City of Melbourne will continue with CLUE which is now fundamental to providing: information to media queries,

answering questions such as the % of land moving to residential uses in the CBD,

providing ‘ready to hand’, up to date information to help understand trends,

assisting the Council to make its own decisions, and

to influence State Government through the use of accurate data.

Provide current information for Structure Plans, with 15 years or more of trend data to assist future planning

CoM needs to refresh CLUE and consider what KPIs it collects data on. Ms Jeffs asked for a presentation on what CLUE data looks like so the Executive Forum can consider what parts IMAP Councils want. Is it all or nothing? Mr Ley noted a site visit would not be cost-efficient if all the data wasn’t collected at the time. Mr Ley noted the following questions to address:

Can CLUE – or an augmented version of it – provide Councils with what they need?

Can a number of users get it at some cheaper margin?

Is it a bit better or a lot better than what we have now? He noted that VicCLUE failed as no one championed it, and that CLUE needs to be embedded in organisations and supported from the top down for best utilisation and cost/benefit. Employment information is fundamental to economic development and inner city development planning - and the only way to get this information is to ask companies for it. The Federal Government has access through the tax office but this geo-coded information cannot be released. If this was accessible, we would have a national census of employment. CLUE drills down and is able to provide economic assessments. Mr Ley noted from his consultation that there are inconsistencies across the 5 councils; they undertake work in different ways, hold data in business registers differently. They respond to particular needs at particular times. Often the data is not comparable as a result. There is benefit in not losing the data over time and having consistency in the way it is collected. Need to compare CLUE data sets with Council’s data sets. Mr Scarlett noted the council relies on both ProfileID and consultant’s work. There are limitations in ProfileID e.g. connecting job numbers to landuse – and CoPP have to rely on consultants to provide this analysis. Ms Vinot noted the project needs to focus on:

How much data is collected systematically by councils

How much data is not in the system,

What data is missing that Councils need; and

Map this comparison between CLUE and other data sources

The Executive Forum confirmed that this investigation should be confined to Economic Development and Strategic Planning areas.

Once this area is confirmed, we will be able to move to the next phase. This information will help make the decision when that time comes. Ms Vaidyanath noted her interest in knowing the richness of the data; gaps in the research Ms Jeffs noted her interest in access to the data and taking a shared services approach to this. What could we get out of a combined approach? What is the bigger policy imperative? How would it help our advocacy and achieving IMAPs strategic plan? The collective Business Case for this project needs to identify the benefits – the consistency of the data, its seamlessness, its importance to planning, the value of information on how businesses operate in Melbourne. The Chairman summarised the process to date: from the decision in May to look at the costs and benefits of an IMAP CLUE, approval of the initial investigation in August last year, and limits encountered to preparing a business case for CLUE due to the constraints of getting the information and the inconsistencies in how we all collect data. There is a need to now:

Identify the datasets used by ED and SP

Identify what Councils could use CLUE Data for

Identify what we currently use data for, and

Identify how the CLUE data and Councils data sets match up. This needs to be done before we can identify the benefit of doing an IMAP ‘something”. The Executive Forum confirmed the need to undertake further discussions with staff on:

What data sets are used by ED and SP in the Councils, and what do they use them for?

What is in CLUE’s data set?

What are the links between both approaches, and what are the gaps?

The strategic advantages and value of having good data. Ms Vinot suggested this can be achieved by showing Councils a list of the CLUE data and getting them to identify whether they collect it by other means, how frequently, what its used for and what is not on the CLUE list that councils collect and find useful. It would also be useful to find out, if they had access to longitudinal data, how they would use it. Mr Roberts left the meeting for a short time and returned at 4.45pm 3.1 That the IMAP Executive Forum resolves that:

Mr Ley undertake additional research that o maps Councils’ current Economic Development and Strategic Planning data

against the CLUE data base; o identifies applications/uses of consultant data (and uses of longitudinal CLUE data); o identifies any significant data gaps in both CLUE or Council data; and o identifies what data in CLUE is considered the most useful

a presentation on CLUE be provided as part of the presentation on findings at a later Executive Forum meeting

MOVED/Seconded MR ROBERTS / Ms Vaidyanath The MOTION was CARRIED. Actions:

Mr A Ley to undertake the next steps of the investigation on research data as outlined in the resolution

PROGRESS ON CURRENT PROJECTS

IMAP ADMINISTRATION PROJECTS

IMAP Review

BACKGROUND

On 28 June 2016 all 5 IMAP Council had approved the new Inner Melbourne Action Plan 2016-26. The plan is currently being edited and printed.

A new Three Year Implementation Plan has been developed following discussions with senior executives and a joint council staff workshop. The shortlist of 25 projects WAS made available to all councillors for consideration of the priorities being proposed. The IMAP Three Year Implementation Plan was approved by the IMAP Implementation Committee at their December meeting.

GOAL 1 ECONOMY

Strategy 1.3

[Formerly Strategy 11 – Regional Tourism]

Regional Tourism Programme & Inner Melbourne Map

BACKGROUND

The IMAP Regional Tourism Working Group (TWG) has progressed its work through a number of three year strategic plans. The aim of the group is to promote the Inner Melbourne region to tourists and visitors. In recent years the group has undertaken a range of approaches, having successfully developed a number of visitor itineraries, promoted ‘Famils” to information centre volunteers from both Ballarat and Geelong, undertaken promotion of inner Melbourne on the Skybus, undertaken joint opinion research with Destination Melbourne, and provided a consistent promotional effort to delegates at major events such as the AIDS conference.

The most successful collateral developed by the group is the IMAP regional tourism map – now the Official Visitors Map which is promoted in conjunction with Destination Melbourne for wide distribution. The group has also been assisting development of a tourist bus route around inner Melbourne.

Work in 2016 included:

In January 2016 IMAP’s senior executives met with the interim CEO of Visit Victoria.

Agreement was reached this year with Destination Melbourne (DML) for the five councils to negotiate jointly on the provision of council services provided by DML.

An agreement was approved with DML for printing and distribution of the IMAP map through the Official Visitors Map. This has been extended for a further year.

IMAP agreed to part fund development of a Destination Management Plan for Metro Melbourne to be undertaken by DML

The Tourism Group collaborated with Cultural Victoria to develop a Cultural Guide which was launched in Windsor in October.

CURRENT PROGRESS

Destination Melbourne Ltd has advised they have appointed AEC Group to be the consultants in charge of the Destination Management Plan development. Representatives from the TWG are on the Steering Committee and have assisted with the assessment of consultant proposals. Stakeholder forums are to be held in each council region. Council Tourism staff are also being asked to undertake Product Audits as part of the development of the plan.

The agreement with Destination Melbourne for the use of the IMAP map in the Official Visitors Map is due for renewal. This matter will be discussed with the Committee at the February meeting.

TWG members are contacting those businesses which featured in the “Experience Culture Victoria 2016-17” Guide for feedback on their listings prior to deciding if they will recommend IMAP councils participating in a further edition.

Strategy 1.4

[Formerly Action 2.2 Co-ordinated pedestrian and public transport signage system]

Melbourne Wayfinding Signing Master Style Guide

BACKGROUND

Initially completed in 2010, this project has been reactivated, focussed on visitor signage.

In December 2012, the IMAP Implementation Committee approved participation in the Melbourne Visitor Signage project and the coordinating committee was established to guide its work. The Committee seeks to:

Page 30: Agenda - IMAP - Homeimap.vic.gov.au/uploads/Meeting Agendas/2017 February... · 2017-02-20 · 24 February 2017 1 Agenda Inner Melbourne Action Plan Implementation Committee Meeting

24 February 2017 Attachment 6

3

Build common threads between roads, public transport, tourism, pedestrian, cycling and street directional signage systems across the inner Melbourne region.

Apply consistent shared symbols and terminology across these key signage systems; and

Coordinate responses to signage requests by tourist attractions, precincts and major developments.

The Melbourne Visitor Signage coordinating committee comprises representatives of the five IMAP councils, City of Wyndham, Public Transport Victoria, VicRoads and Tourism Victoria. The aim is to build a Master Style Guide setting out agreed signing principles, guidelines and language (the ‘business rules’) to be adopted by collaborating authorities.

In April 2015 Paul Street, the Program Manager of Transport for London’s (TfL) Legible London wayfinding system visited for 12 days providing workshops on best practice examples, implementation processes and structures and a methodology for roll out of a comprehensive system. Following the TfL visit, the committee structured its work into two streams:

1. Collaborative projects

Master Style Guide. The final draft of the guide is completed and undergoing design and publication.

The guide outlines an agreed approach to content: signing principles, eligibility and selection criteria,

naming conventions, symbols and arrows, placement and location criteria, and ‘gateway’ signage.

Signage Infrastructure Design Workshops are looking at the design issues of signs - functionality,

legibility, accessibility and view from different distances. Prototype testing of a new design has been

undertaken at sites in Melbourne, Port Phillip and Wyndham.

Pilot projects proposed for North Melbourne, central city, Balaclava Station, Station Pier and Werribee will test the new sign design, content and placement with users: to understand their wayfinding needs and to build a robust evaluation framework.

2. Strategic approach

The project team are investigating:

the feasibility of building a single base map for metropolitan Melbourne for use by councils for wayfinding signage and other purposes; and

Commissioning a business case on the benefits of improved wayfinding signage in Melbourne.

CURRENT PROGRESS:

The visitor signage Master Style Guide (MSG) was endorsed by the IMAP Implementation Committee at its August 2016 meeting. The guide or ‘standards’ for signage that would be applicable across Victoria is entitled “Way Found” and is being designed by PTV for release as a reference document.

A Workshop was held by the project team on 30 January to plan the communication strategy for the launch of the new standards and to determine the next steps for the project.

The pilot of new sign designs at locations within the CBD and Werribee is progressing with work underway on identifying best locations and finalising installation details and content.

Affordable Housing

BACKGROUND

Completed Stage 1: Planning mechanisms

Stage 2: Community Land Trust (CLT) Research Phase 1

Research undertaken on Community Land Trust models and their application in Australia is published in The Australian Community Land Trust Manual (refer copies held online).

IMAP and the City of Port Phillip were awarded the University of Western Sydney 2013 Partnership Award for their involvement in this project.

Current

Community Land Trust (CLT) Research Phase 2

Key research questions of this phase relate to:

identifying and researching appropriate financial products for the establishment of CLTs in

Australia: The team will work with banks and other lending institutions to develop appropriate loan

products for residents looking to buy a leasehold or shared equity interest in CLT housing

perform in-depth case studies. This task will involve the completion of up to four in-depth case

studies in a range of locations and scenarios.

February 2014: The Scope of Work for Phase 2 was reported to the IMAP Committee meeting and advice that fund raising had been successful

November 2014: the first meeting for Phase 2 was held to discuss the next stage.

March 2015: the UWS Partnership Agreement was finalised.

An update on the CLT work was provided to the IMAP Committee at their meeting in May 2015 and in February 2016.

June 2016: Project partners met by conference call to assess progress. A number of the case studies are still working through establishment issues and looking at design and build approaches which meet both sustainability and affordability aims. The discussion agreed a program of work planned for 2016-17.

9 November 2015: A World Homeless Day Symposium ‘Future of Inner City Social Housing’ was held by the City of Yarra to explore ways state and local government, as well as the private and non-government sector, can work together to increase the supply of social housing in inner Melbourne. A report on this event was considered at the November 2015 meeting.

December 2016: The University of Western Sydney advised partners about delays in the project.

Strategy 3.4

[Formerly Action 5.5 Infrastructure Development]

IMAP Regional Active Sport and Recreation Facilities Planning Study project.

BACKGROUND

Following work being undertaken by the Metropolitan Planning Authority and Sport and Recreation Victoria to plan for future requirements for open space, the Committee considered a proposal at the May 2015 meeting to investigate recreation facilities and open space requirements across the IMAP region, in response to future growth.

Page 32: Agenda - IMAP - Homeimap.vic.gov.au/uploads/Meeting Agendas/2017 February... · 2017-02-20 · 24 February 2017 1 Agenda Inner Melbourne Action Plan Implementation Committee Meeting

The detailed project brief was considered at the August 2015 meeting and a further report on funding implications were discussed in November 2015 and confirmed in February 2016.

An SRV regional planning grant application was submitted for this project and has been successful.

A Project Officer to assist the project commenced 6 months employment at the City of Melbourne on 16 May 2016

.

CURRENT PROGRESS

Data gathering across the councils and state government agencies for the project has largely been completed and an update was provided to the IMAP Committee at the December 2016 meeting advising on the completion of the phase 1 of this project.

A Workshop was held on 20 January 2017 to determine data storage and maintenance and to review the analysis that had been undertaken. Further work on the analysis stage is supported, and would require an extension to the Project Officer’s initial contract.

Preparation of the Consultant brief for phase 2 of the project is underway.

Strategy 3.6

[Formerly Action 6.3 Managing Conflict in Activity Centres]

Managing Conflict in Activity Centres

BACKGROUND

A submission to address the disparity between planning and liquor licensing Definitions in the legislation with the Department Environment Land Water and Planning (DELWP) has been proposed by the IMAP Implementation Committee. An initial meeting to discuss the approach to be taken was held on 5 February 2015.

CURRENT PROGRESS

At the August 2016 meeting, the committee requested this matter be followed up. The Executive Officer has been unable to progress this project due to other commitments. A lead council is sought to undertake this work.

Urban Manufacturing Project - The Dilemma of Urban Employment Land

In a separate initiative, representatives of the IMAP Councils and University of Melbourne are investigating urban manufacturing in the Inner Melbourne region. The IMAP Committee considered the initial brief and recommendations at the November 2014 and February 2015 meetings to finalise the funds, timeframe and objectives for this project.

The following approach had been proposed for this project:

o Phase 1 (7 months) – Existing Resources, Pilot Study, and Definition

o Phase 2 (6 months) - Major survey and preliminary economic analysis.

o Phase 3 (3-5 years) – Economic Impacts.

PHASE 1 - PROJECT UPDATE

o A stakeholder workshop held on 28 May 2015 identified the need to broaden the project to include Moreland Council region and explore a technological method for conducting the survey. Moreland Council joined the project team and made a funding contribution

o The project team confirmed the information required to examine a complete picture of all three approaches – land, sector, and economic; is currently not in existence for Victoria to provide key data for the analysis of economic development in small manufacturing sectors.

o An update to the Steering Committee on 11 June 2015 proposed that the Project should apply for an ARC Linkage Grant. This was subsequently unsuccessful.

o The final report for Phase 1 was considered by the committee in August 2015 and adopted in February 2016: it outlines the findings from the analysis of existing data, inception workshop, and framing of the qualitative and quantitative studies that comprise the research. The report summarises the original project proposal and several strategic decisions modifying the scope and path of the research.

o The Maker. Melbourne website is live and has attracted over 140 entries from local businesses. The City of Stonnington assisted with raising the website’s profile.

o The Executive Forum reviewed the funding for Phase 2 at its meeting on 19 May 2016 and endorsed commencement of the next stage of the project.

CURRENT PROGRESS

An updated agreement with the University of Melbourne for funding the stage 2 research team is currently being signed by the 7 authorities partnering on the project.

The terms of reference were prepared for the establishment of a Policy Reference Group and the first 2 meetings were held in December and January to consider policy options.

A firm has been employed to follow up entries on the Maker. Melbourne website to increase the numbers completing the survey data, so that analysis of the data can commence.

The University has prepared the framework for the final report.

Sustainable Design Factsheets Project

BACKGROUND

Completed - Stages 1 & 2

Work commenced in December 2010 to identify ESD topics to be written up in the form of Factsheets for publication. The first 10 Factsheets pack was formally launched at the City of Melbourne on 11 May 2012. The Factsheets have been licensed for re-badging and use by other Melbourne Councils.

The Working Group reported in May 2014 that the 10 original fact sheets, designed to support the SDAPP framework, have become reference documents for the six local governments who had adopted the proposed local planning scheme amendment for ESD.

In August 2014 the working group investigated having CASBE oversee Council access to the Factsheets, to uphold standards and improve consistency. This has not eventuated.

5 additional topics were recently completed in 2016.

o Topics include:

1.0 Indoor environment quality

2.0 Energy efficiency

o 2.1 Sunshading

3.0 Water efficiency

4.0 Stormwater management

o 4.1 Site Permeability

5.0 Building materials

6.0 Transport

7.0 Waste management

8.0 Urban ecology

o 8.1 Green roofs, walls and facades

9.0 Innovation

10.0 Construction and building management

Green Roofs Research Project - Australian Research Council Linkage Grant

BACKGROUND

In 2013 the IMAP Implementation Committee partnered in an ARC Linkage Grant with the University of Melbourne and Melbourne Water for further research on the measurable impacts of green roofs: "Mimicking natural ecosystems to improve green roof performance”. The research project outcomes will provide design, monitoring and management recommendations for Green Roofs, particularly in relation to stormwater quality and quantity, temperature (building energy efficiency) and improved biodiversity.

Dr Nick Fisher, University of Melbourne updated the IMAP Committee on their research in February 2015 and 27 May 2016.
