Acknowledgement of Country I would like to acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of this land and pay my respect to Elders both past and present. I would also like to extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders present here today.

Declarations of Interest The provisions of Chapter 14 of the Local Government Act 1993 regulate the way in which Councillors, Committee Members and nominated staff of Council conduct themselves to ensure that there is no conflict between their private interests and their public trust. The Act prescribes that where a member of Council (or a Committee of Council) has a direct or indirect financial (pecuniary) interest in a matter to be considered at a meeting of the Council (or Committee), that interest and the reasons for declaring such interest must be disclosed as soon as practicable after the start of the meeting. As members are aware, the provisions of the Local Government Act restrict any member who has declared a pecuniary interest in any matter from participating in the discussions or voting on that matter and further require that the member vacate the Chamber. Council‘s Code of Conduct provides that if members have a non-pecuniary conflict of interest, the nature of the conflict must be disclosed. The Code also provides for a number of ways in which a member may manage non pecuniary conflicts of interest. Where necessary any Councillor, Committee Member and nominated staff of Council should disclose any interest and the reason for declaring such interest in the matters under consideration at this meeting.

Councillors and Committee Members are requested to complete the appropriate form to be handed up at the Meeting.

7.1 Request from CTC@Robertson to increase their annual Community Donation

Reference: 1660/27.1 Report Author: Coordinator Community Development Authoriser: Group Manager Corporate and Community Link to Community Strategic Plan: An enhanced culture of positive leadership, accountability

and ethical governance that guides well informed decisions to advance agreed community priorities

PURPOSE The purpose of this report is to seek Council’s position on a request from the Management Committee of Community Technology Centre@Robertson to increase the annual community donation from $10,000 to $15,000 plus CPI.

RECOMMENDATION THAT Council refer the request for an increase to the annual community donation provided to Community Technology Centre@Robertson from $10,000 to $15,000 plus CPI to the 2019/20 Budget considerations.

REPORT

BACKGROUND

Community Technology Centre (CTC)@Robertson was formed in 2004 to provide services and training to the local community. In 2009, Council moved a Motion to provide an annual $10,000 donation to the CTC@Robertson to assist in paying the salary of the part time Coordinator. CTC@Robertson has continued to receive $10,000 annually since 2009.

REPORT

The Management Committee of CTC@Robertson are seeking to have the annual donation provided to them by Council increased from $10,000 to $15,000 plus CPI to support the increased costs of a part time Manager at the Centre.

In 2009, the Manager was employed for 12 – 16 hours per fortnight. 1n 2018, the Manager is employed for 26 hours per fortnight, the hourly rate increasing by $8.34 over the same period.

The Centre provides opportunities to support community based services and activities for learning and skills development. The CTC@Robertson continues to provide low cost technology training, offering weekly classes as well as one-on-one lessons specifically

targeting seniors and low income earners. The Manager provides technical training, organises volunteers, works with the community on events and services and also gives time as a volunteer.

The role of the Centre has broadened over time encompassing arts, business and commerce, social and cultural activities such as choir activities, music events and film afternoons. The Centre is also supporting the new Robertson Men’s Shed group and auspiced the recently completed Community Information Centre project as part of Our Village Our Future.

The Centre has a dedicated team of volunteers who support the operations of the Centre but without a paid Manager the Centre would not be able to operate.

Option 2

Council not support the request.

Option 1 is the recommended option to this report.

CONCLUSION

CTC@Roberton has for the past 14 years provided a formal and informal innovative hub for learning and skill development. The employment of a trained and skilled part time Manager ensures that the valuable service that is provided to the local community continues to grow.

RECOMMENDATION 1. THAT the budget variations contained within this report be received and noted.

2017/18 financial year as follows:

2017/18 Year End Surplus Allocation $

REPORT

BACKGROUND At its meeting 14 June 2017 Council adopted the 2017/18 Operational Plan, Budget and Revenue Policy (MN 234/17). The 2017/18 Original Budget was adopted by Council as a balanced budget. In accordance with section 203 of the Local Government (General) Regulation 2005, Council has been presented with a formal review of the budget at the end of each quarter based on actual and projected variances. Council has continued to maintain a balanced budget position throughout the course of the 2017/18 financial year.



AGENDA REPORTS

Page | 9

MAIN REPORT Council adopted the March Quarterly Review of the 2017/18 Budget at the Finance Committee held on the 16 May 2018. The projected budget result presented to Council as part of the March Quarterly Review was a balanced budget. A final review of the 2017/18 budget as at 30 June 2018 has identified a surplus when compared to budget of $1,159,077. This surplus is primarily a result of savings realised in road maintenance and construction projects, additional development income, savings realised through Council’s workers compensation premium, savings in employment costs due to staff vacancies, and a range of operational savings across Council’s budget. MAJOR GENERAL FUND BUDGET VARIATIONS The major variations which have led to a year-end General Fund budget surplus of $1,159,077 are shown in the table below:

RECOMMENDED SURPLUS ALLOCATION It is recommended that Council approve the allocation of the year-end surplus of $1,159,077 as follows:

2017/18 Year End Surplus Allocation

$

Capital Projects Reserve – Transfer to Reserve $639,077

Property Development Reserve – Transfer to Reserve $400,000

Employee Leave Entitlements Reserve – Transfer to Reserve $120,000

Surplus Allocation $1,159,077

Capital Projects Reserve – Transfer to Reserve $639,077 The purpose of the Capital Projects Reserve is to provide Council with the ability to allocate funds to emergency infrastructure works which are unable to be funded within recurrent budget allocations. It also allows Council to deliver government grant funded capital projects which may require a matched sourced of funding and to assist with the funding of priority infrastructure works identified as part of the Annual Budget. Council has a standing resolution (Finance Committee - 17 August 2016 FC 13/16) which requires the replenishment of the Capital Projects Reserve to a minimum balance of $1 million when surplus funds become available at quarterly reviews of the budget. In accordance with this motion, this report recommends that $639,077 be allocated to the Capital Projects Reserve. This will increase the uncommitted balance of the Capital Projects Reserve to $1.356 million.



AGENDA REPORTS

Page | 11

Property Development Reserve – Transfer to Reserve $400,000 The opening balance of the Property Development Reserve as at 1 July 2017 was $2.274 million. After transfers to and from the Reserve during the 2017/18 financial year, the balance of the Reserve as at 30 June 2017 was $2.169 million. This report recommends that $400,000 be allocated to the Property Development Reserve. This purpose of this transfer is to reimburse the Property Development Reserve for the $371,000 allocation which funded the acquisition of Wattle Street Bowral. This transfer will increase the balance of the Reserve to $2.569 million; however the uncommitted balance of the Reserve as at 30 June 2018 will be $614,000. Employee Leave Entitlements Reserve – Transfer to Reserve $120,000 The purpose of the Employee Leave Entitlements Reserve is to ensure Council has sufficient cash reserves for the payment of employee leave entitlements upon resignation or retirement. While Council has a number of internal policies in place which ensure that excessive leave balances are managed and do not create a significant liability, the industry benchmark for the level of cash reserves which should be held for employee leave entitlements is 20% of Council’s overall employee leave liability. Council’s leave liability as at 30 June 2018 was $7.662 million. This liability primarily relates to long service leave and annual leave. If Council approves the additional transfer of $120,000 to the Employee Leave Entitlements Reserve, this will increase the balance held in the Employee Leave Entitlements Reserve as at 30 June 2018 to $1.533 million, which is in line with the industry benchmark of 20% of total leave liability. RESERVE BALANCES - 30 JUNE 2018 In adopting the 2017/18 Budget (and subsequent reviews) Council has approved a range of transfers to/from externally and internally restricted reserves. The purpose of these reserves is to restrict income for the purposes of future budget commitments or liabilities (internal reserves) or due to legislative requirements such as developer contributions, water and sewer funds, and waste management (external reserves). At the Finance Committee held on 15 August 2018, Council approved revotes totalling $1,857,295 from General Revenue. This figure has been adjusted to account for the funding of the Braemar Avenue Culvert project from Section 64 Developers Contributions to General revenue for the amount of $5,005. The amount now shown in the General Fund Revote Reserve is $1,862,300. A copy of Council’s reserve balances as at 30 June 2018 is provided in Attachment 2. ADVANCE PAYMENT OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE GRANT As part of the 2018/19 Federal Budget, the Federal Government again approved the advance payment of approximately 50% of the 2018/19 Financial Assistance Grant in the 2017/18 financial year. Council received a total payment of $2.548 million in June 2018.



AGENDA REPORTS

Page | 12

This amount has been restricted as at 30 June 2018 for the purposes of funding the 2018/19 Budget. RESOURCE RECOVERY CENTRE The opening balance of the Waste Facilities General Fund Reserve as at 1 July 2017 was $2.678 million. The original budget for the 2017/18 financial year projected a surplus of $117,000. Taking into consideration final revenue and expenditure balances, the net result for the facility for the 2017/18 financial year was an operating surplus of $802,000. It is important to note this surplus does not include the funding of depreciation or a provision for infrastructure renewal. The closing balance of the Reserve as at 30 June 2018 is $1.413 million. This includes a transfer from the reserve of $1.402 million for asbestos contamination at the Resource Recovery Centre which was reported to Council at the Finance Committee on 21 February 2018. $34,000 was transferred from the reserve to fund costs associated with the rehabilitation of the Welby site. $631,000 was also transferred to re-establish the Welby Hockey Reserve as reported to Council at the Finance Committee on 16 May 2018. SOUTHERN REGION LIVESTOCK EXHANGE (SRLX) The opening balance of the SRLX Reserve as at 1 July 2017 was $38,000. A $13,000 transfer from the Reserve was required to fund the year end result. The closing balance of the Reserve as at 30 June 2018 is $25,000. As Council would be aware, a Capital Improvement Levy was introduced in July 2016. This levy generated revenue during the 2017/18 financial year of $158,000. During the course of the year $55,000 has been spent on the following projects; Diesel air compressor $29,000, and lighting upgrade $26,000. A copy of the financial report presented to the SRLX Advisory Committee in August 2018 is provided in Attachment 3. Please note there have been no adjustments required to the interim report presented to the Committee.

IMPACT ON COUNCIL’S FIT FOR THE FUTURE IMPROVEMENT PLAN Ensuring Council has sufficient cash reserves to fund future capital projects and works, including emergency infrastructure works is consistent with Council’s Fit for the Future Improvement Plan. Where variations have been identified (as part of this review) which will have an impact on the 2018/19 budget, these adjustments will be taken into consideration and identified as part of future quarterly reviews of the Budget.

Governance

While section 203 of the Local Government (General) Regulation 2005 does not require Council to adopt the final Year End Budget Result, it is good practice for Council to undertake a review of its budget at the end of the financial year which is based on actual expenditure and revenue.

COUNCIL BUDGET IMPLICATIONS A final review of the 2017/18 budget as at 30 June 2018 has identified a surplus when compared to budget of $1,159,077. It is recommended that this surplus be allocated to the Capital Projects Reserve, Property Development Reserve, and Employee Leave Entitlements Reserve.

RELATED COUNCIL POLICY 2017/18 Operational Plan and Budget



AGENDA REPORTS

Page | 14

CONCLUSION The year-end budget surplus of $1,159,077 is primarily a result of employee savings due to staff vacancies, operational savings across various functions of Council, and ongoing improvements and initiatives within Council’s work health and safety program which have led to a reduction in workers compensation premium when compared against budget. The proposed allocation of the surplus represents a financially prudent and responsible approach to ensuring that Council has sufficient cash reserves to fund future infrastructure projects through the Capital Projects Reserve and Property Development Reserve. The proposed allocation to the Employee Leave Entitlements Reserve ensures Council has sufficient cash reserves for the payment of employee leave entitlements upon resignation or retirement.

7.3 2018/19 Rate, Water and Sewerage Access Subsidies

Reference: 2210/1 Report Author: Coordinator Revenue Authoriser: Chief Financial Officer Link to Community Strategic Plan: Effective financial and asset management ensure Council's

long term sustainability

PURPOSE The purpose of this report is to seek Council approval for the 2018/19 Rate, Water and Sewerage Access Subsidies for Community & Sporting Organisations (including Religious Bodies).

RECOMMENDATION THAT Council approve the Rate, Water and Sewerage Access Subsidies for Community & Sporting Organisations (including Religious Bodies) as shown in Attachment 1 for the 2018/19 financial year.

REPORT

BACKGROUND The purpose of the Rate, Water and Sewer Access Subsidy Policy is to provide a clear and transparent framework for Council to determine rate, water and sewerage access subsidies for community and sporting organisations (including religious bodies) that operate and are located within the Wingecarribee Shire. Council adopted the revised Rate, Water and Sewerage Access Subsidy Policy for Community & Sporting Organisations (including Religious Bodies) at its meeting 19 October 2016. In adopting the revised Policy, Council approved changes to the Policy which incorporated descriptions for those services and/or facilities which are considered the responsibility of Council. These included the following;

Community halls and civic meeting places,

Sportsgrounds, including amenities,

Showgrounds and other recreational areas, such as racecourses. This report presents the recommended subsidies to be approved for the 2018/19 financial year, in accordance with the criteria set out in Council’s adopted Policy.



AGENDA REPORTS

Page | 20

REPORT Applications were sought from community and sporting organisations for the 2018/19 financial year in July 2018. Council staff have assessed these applications based on the criteria outlined in Council’s adopted Policy. Rate Subsidies Applications seeking a rate subsidy have been assessed based on the following criteria: Category A – Organisations are entitled to a 100% rate subsidy. (Excluding waste services). To be eligible for a Category A rate subsidy, organisations had to meet the following criteria:

Provides a service which is of broad benefit to the residents of Wingecarribee Shire.

In providing this service the organisation relieves Council of the need to provide that service.

The service is managed by a local organisation such as a community group or not-for profit organisation and does not have a commercial purpose.

Category B – Organisations are entitled to a 50% rate subsidy, up to a maximum of $500. (Excluding waste services). To be eligible for a Category B rate subsidy, organisations had to meet the following criteria:


In providing this service the organisation provides a service which complements, but which is not the direct responsibility of Council.


Water and Sewerage Access Charge Subsidies Applications seeking a water and sewerage access charge subsidy have been assessed based on the following criteria: Category A – Community and Sporting Organisations are entitled to a 50% subsidy if they are connected to Council’s water and sewerage supply. However, organisations that are not connected to Council’s water and sewerage supply are entitled to a 100% subsidy. To be eligible for a Category A water and sewerage access charge subsidy, organisations had to meet the following criteria:


In providing this service the organisation relieves Council of the need to provide that service.


Category B – Community and Sporting Organisations are entitled to a 50% subsidy, up to a maximum of $500 in total. To be eligible for a Category B water and sewerage access charge subsidy, such organisations had to meet the following criteria:

AGENDA REPORTS

Page | 21


Religious Bodies – Water and Sewerage Access Charge Subsidy Religious bodies are entitled to a 50% subsidy, up to a maximum of $500 provided they are connected to Council’s water and sewerage supply. For religious bodies to be eligible for a water and sewerage access charge subsidy, the following criteria had to be met:

The religious body is regulated by Acts of Parliament.

The land is used as a place of public worship which does not exclude non-members from its services.

The property does not have a commercial purpose.

ROBERTSON SCHOOL OF ARTS Council has received a request by the Robertson School of Arts for an increase in the subsidy they receive. The Robertson School of Arts had received a Category A subsidy up until 2013. Since the readoption of the Rate, Water and Sewerage Access Subsidy Policy in October 2016, the property now receives a subsidy of $500 for rates and 50% (up to $500) for water and sewerage access. These subsidies were approved under the Category B criteria. Council officers have assessed this application against the adopted Policy criteria and determined that the facility meets the Category B criteria. It is recommended that there is no change to the level of subsidy provided. SUMMARY OF APPLICATIONS Council received 56 subsidy applications for the 2018/19 financial year. Council staff have assessed these applications and a summary of staff recommendation is provided in the table below:

IMPACT ON COUNCIL’S FIT FOR THE FUTURE IMPROVEMENT PLAN While providing a subsidy is not consistent with Council’s Improvement Plan and will impact on Council’s budget, it will encourage community and sporting organisations (including religious bodies) to continue to provide voluntary services that will benefit both Council and the local community.

COMMUNICATION AND CONSULTATION

Internal Communication and Consultation

N/A

External Communication and Consultation

A copy of the adopted policy was included with the application form to Community & Sporting Organisations (including Religious Bodies).


Environment


Social

Council supports local committees and other not-for-profit organisations which continue to provide voluntary assistance in maintaining facilities and/or provide services which are available to the general public. If these subsidies are not provided to these groups, they may no longer be able to afford the services they currently offer throughout the shire.



Culture


Governance

It is essential for good governance to ensure there is transparency in decisions and clear and effective administration in the granting of subsidies.

COUNCIL BUDGET IMPLICATIONS Council has a budget allocation of $77,500 in the 2018/19 budget for rate, water and sewerage access subsidies.
