Meeting Date: 5 September 2014 I was in attendance at the Shire from the 11th to the 15th August 2014. Building Permits There was One (1) Building Permit issued in this timeline. BP14-002 was issued to Clive Griffiths representing the Commissioners
Presbyterian Church WA in trust for the construction of disabled toilet and shower on Lots 186-187 Attwood Street for the use of the Congregation while in attendance on the property.
Statistics
The statistics as required by the ABS and WorkSafe, and others were submitted at the end of last month in the format as is required by the ABS.
Demolition licenses There were Nil (0) Demolition Permits issued during this period. General Matters Landgate Requirements – Notices Issued on Properties
Council has been advised that we are to advise Landgate (working for the Valuer General Department) of any and all Health or Building Notices we issue on buildings or properties within the Shire. If it is an Unfit for Human Habitation Notice (UHH) then this renders the house not able to be rented and as such reverts to virtually vacant land, meaning the rates are reduced to vacant land while the property remains in this state. This will mean extra paperwork and administration time in making adjustments to the rates charged, but it is also a major dis-incentive for some of the non-resident landowners to comply with the conditions placed on the Notices issued. The CEO has been in touch with the person who contacted me on this matter and it is evident that this is a requirement by legislation which I was never aware of until this matter was referred to the Department (Landgate).
Lot 234 Watson Street – Mount Magnet I have received an email notification from the owner of the property that she is in the process of selling the land and requested a stay on the demolition order as the house will be renovated to the required standards. I have also spoken to the new owner to be of the property and he has stated that that is his intentions. He will renovate the internal area of the dwelling and is looking to build extra rooms and bathroom facilities to cater for his wife and children. This is indeed a positive and great outcome for a building that has been neglected for some time now. Council could have demolished the house much earlier and then this opportunity would not have existed. The building is structurally sound and will now become an asset once again with the proposed changes to it.

Review of the Caravan Parks Legislation
The Department of Local Government and Communities has released a consultation paper on the review of the Caravan Park and Camping Grounds Act 1995 (CPCG Act) requesting feedback by the 1 September 2014. The existing CPCG Act is difficult to understand, administer and is considered to be inflexible by government and the industry. Its review is necessary and has been promised for some time. The review proposes to improve the Act’s clarity, consistency of application and provide some flexibility for park operators to respond to market forces. The proposed approach would result in greater emphasis on zoning and planning controls used in combination with a management plan proposed by the operator to control land use within sites identified as Caravan Parks. The CPCG Act would deal mostly with health and safety considerations. The general approach is supported, but I have informed Mr Bashall of the review and asked for comments as he will need to consider the implications on the Strategy and Scheme he will be preparing for the Shire. Development in Caravan Parks are currently controlled by both Local Planning Schemes and the Caravan Park and Camping Grounds Act and Regulations. Broadly, this occurs in the following way: 1. Local Planning Scheme zones the site and lists the permissible land uses.
The caravan parks are all zoned ‘Special Site – Caravan Park and ancillary uses’. Conditions of approval are largely at Council’s discretion. This level of land use control generally applies to applications for the caravan park itself or extension to it rather than individual developments within the caravan park.
2. Caravan Park and Camping Grounds Act (CPCG Act) covers the permissible land uses, controls the location of caravan parks, camping grounds and even where people may camp, establishes responsibilities and duties for land use controls and administration of Caravan Parks, and provides for enforcement including penalties.
3. Caravan and Camping Grounds Regulations provide the detailed controls for individual developments and are generally administered by both the park operator and the Shire’s Environmental Health Officer and Building Surveyor.
The CPCG Act and Regulations are generally understood by all users as being difficult to understand, administer and as being inflexible given the changing nature of holiday accommodation across the state in the last 10-20 years. Generally the issues faced by Councils in the existing Caravan Parks are common throughout the State and include: Number and location of permanent residents’ vs land available for visitors
and the effect on the tourist experience; Ensuring that sufficient land is retained for tourists in caravan parks,
particularly those identified by the Shire as being of strategic importance to the tourism product of the whole Shire.
Confusion over the permissibility of certain types of accommodation within Caravan Parks, especially Park Homes;
Ordinary Meeting of Council Minutes - 5 September 2014 18 of 84
Being ‘transportable’, Park Homes have been permitted in Caravan Parks but there has been confusion over the building standards applicable and what regulations apply to their construction.
Long stay residential parks have been permitted in caravan parks but are in effect pseudo residential developments.
The duration of a Caravan Park licence is one year; this has caused some uncertainty for operators and can affect the economic viability of a Park.
The nature of the users of Caravan Parks is changing over time with many being entirely self-continued (i.e. RV’s), or seeking chalet or other holiday accommodation options rather than caravans or tents.
In summary, the proposed changes that have potential to impact on a Shire include: Defining all caravan parks and camping grounds as ‘Holiday Parks’ to
differentiate them from other uses that may occur in the Caravan Park zone.
Differentiating permanently occupied areas of Parks, identifying them as ‘Residential Parks’ and assessing them as residential developments like any other residential area.
The proportion of long stay and short stay residents to be guided by a local government’s local tourism planning strategy and/or policy.
The proportion of long-stay and short-stay occupants in a holiday park will be determined by the developer and local government on the basis of planning policies.
Treat ‘park homes’ as transportable houses under the Building Code of Australia (BCA) rather than as vehicles as is currently the case. Park homes would then need to be included as a permissible use in the zoning of the site.
Generally leaving the permissibility of land use up to the planning system and having the CPCG Act deal with health and safety.
All accommodation occupied by long stay residents (i.e. a person who stays longer than 3 months in 12) must be transportable to prevent the development of permanent residential developments in holiday parks.
Simplify the licensing categories to holiday park, Transit Park and nature based park. This effectively removes ‘park Home Park’ from the list of licenses issued in Holiday Parks as Park Homes are to be treated as transportable buildings.
A new focus on a management plan prepared and proposed by the operator of the Holiday Park. It will be assessed against health and safety standards and its delivery of products to the identified market segments. The Management Plan would cover the following matters: 1. Market segment being targeted. 2. Infrastructure to be provided (in light of the market segment). 3. The number and type of sites proposed. 4. The buildings proposed. 5. The proposed maximum capacity of the facility. 6. If a full range of infrastructure is not to be provided, include an
explanation of the impacts and how will this be managed. 7. Environmental impact and sustainability. 8. Waste management. 9. Traffic management. 10. Risk management. If the operator wishes to make significant changes to the facility, a modified management plan will need to be submitted to the licensing authority for approval.
Ordinary Meeting of Council Minutes - 5 September 2014 19 of 84
It is suggested that the new requirements of the Act would not apply retrospectively to existing Caravan Parks (including the preparation of a Management Plan) unless extensions to the park were proposed.
Caravans and campervans within a Holiday Park should be licensed at all times so that they could be driven on the road when required.
Comments There remains confusion how a Holiday Park would be licensed when there are park homes and chalets within the licensed area. As an example there are Caravan Parks which currently have park homes peppered throughout the Park, making the administration of the Park even more difficult into the future if park homes are excluded from a Holiday Park License. It is suggested that it may be better to not license a Holiday Park but only approve the Management Plan that shows the mix of land uses and types of accommodation in the Park. Currently park homes are a permitted land use within the CPCG Act. They are proposed to be removed from the CPCG Act and treated as any other building. Therefore park homes would then need to be included as a permissible use in the zoning of the site. This is appropriate because land use is best controlled through the planning controls. The CPCG Act was never meant to control land use but rather it was always intended to be a health and safety tool. The proposal to require all caravans within a Holiday Park to be licensed at all times would have implications for most Parks throughout the State. There are a large number of caravans that have been in situ for many years and are highly unlikely to be able to be driven and licensed. Many appear to be on footings; this is despite the current Regulations requiring that caravans remain mobile. It is arguable that an unlicensed caravan is contrary to the intentions of the current regulations. The impact of requiring all caravans to be licensed would include: 1. Potentially a large cost burden on the semi-permanent population of the Parks
having to upgrade or replace their caravans; 2. The remoteness of some areas of the State to a licensing centre may cause
issues for those seeking to relicense a caravan; 3. It would likely result in an improvement in the quality of the caravans and
accommodation in the Park. If the legislation is progressed as proposed there may be some costs to Council in amending the Local Planning Scheme, preparing local planning policies and administering Holiday Park management plans. Scheme changes will be required to enable chalet, cabins and in particular park homes to be developed within the Shire’s caravan parks into the future. If permanent accommodation is existing or proposed then appropriate densities and development control measures including setbacks, open space and car parking may need to be stipulated. Tourism Accommodation is a major issue within the town and it is obvious to all, that there is a real need to increase the numbers of available facilities to cater for increased tourism, contractors servicing the town and short stay patrons. At times the Caravan Park, which has a good reputation with the travelling public, does not have adequate sites to meet the needs, which means people go on to the next available park, meaning money is not being spent in our town. The availability of Short Term Accommodation (STA) will need to be considered and planned for in the future. While we do not have Park Homes as such, perhaps this is something we may need to consider as Mount Magnet has ample space available within the Town Planning Scheme which is zoned as such.
Ordinary Meeting of Council Minutes - 5 September 2014 20 of 84
I am sure there will be more discussion on this matter as we will need to address this issue. There are many companies (such as trucking and mining) that have approached me in relation to where they can house their employees into the future. Lot 285 Laurie Street
It appears that this dwelling is now vacant and will remain so until such time as it is renovated to an acceptable standard. I have had conversations with the elderly owner and at this stage it appears that the finances to fix this house are not available. However, I will have further conversations with the lady in an attempt to sort this matter out. In particular to secure the house and have the yards cleaned and cleared of all refuse and rubbish.
Unsatisfactory Housing Standards – Mount Magnet
A meeting was held with the Acting Regional manager of the Department of Housing in Mount Magnet, with the Manager from Meekatharra also in attendance. It was made very clear that there is no money available to employ a person even on a part-time basis to act as a mediator between the Department and its tenants. However, the session was very good in that the Department knows what we are unhappy with and we were inform of the correct procedure when reporting problems with housing in Mount Magnet and throughout the region. ALL complaints and reports must go through Housing Direct and the reference number issued must be retained for future reference and also for accountability when it comes to issues being addressed. The Department will conduct an information session for tenants, and we were informed that a new Head Contractor will take over from Transfield in November when they expect the services provided will improve. Of course there will be a period of getting into full service, but this is expected to be minimal disruption. We will monitor the situation and will be regularly keeping in touch with the Department on relevant issues, plus the staff from Meekatharra will be in Mount Magnet for a full day every fortnight and make themselves available to the tenants on those days.
Thus ends my report to Council.

(Statutory Reporting Program)
For the Period Ended 31 July 2014
Please refer to Compilation Report.Ordinary Meeting of Council Minutes - 5 September 2014 26 of 84
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The significant accounting policies which have been adopted in the preparation of this statement of
financial activity are:
(a) Basis of Accounting
This statement is a special purpose financial report, prepared in accordance with applicable Australian
Australian Accounting Standards, other mandatory professional reporting requirements and the Local
Government Act 1995 (as amended) and accompanying regulations (as amended).
(b) The Local Government Reporting Entity
All Funds through which the Council controls resources to carry on its functions have been included in
this statement.
In the process of reporting on the local government as a single unit, all transactions and balances
between those funds (for example, loans and transfers between Funds) have been eliminated.
All monies held in the Trust Fund are excluded from the statement, but a separate statement of those
monies appears at Note 11.
(c) Rounding Off Figures
All figures shown in this statement are rounded to the nearest dollar.
(d) Rates, Grants, Donations and Other Contributions
Rates, grants, donations and other contributions are recognised as revenues when the local government
obtains control over the assets comprising the contributions. Control over assets acquired from rates is
obtained at the commencement of the rating period or, where earlier, upon receipt of the rates.
(e) Goods and Services Tax
In accordance with recommended practice, revenues, expenses and assets capitalised are stated net
of any GST recoverable. Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of applicable GST.
(f) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term deposits that are readily
convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
For the purposes of the Cash Flow Statement, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash
equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are included as
short-term borrowings in current liabilities.
(g) Trade and Other Receivables
Trade receivables, which generally have 30 - 90 day terms, are recognised initially at fair value and
subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less any allowance
for uncollectible amounts.
Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts that are known to be uncollectible
are written off when identified. An allowance for doubtful debts is raised when there is objective evidence
that they will not be collectible.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(h) Inventories
General
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated
selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated
costs of necessary to make the sale.
Inventories held from trading are classified as current even if not expected to be realised in the next 12
months.
Land Held for Resale
Land purchased for development and/or resale is valued at the lower of the cost and net realisable value.
Cost includes the cost of acquisition, development and interest incurred on the financing of that land during
its development. Interest and holding charges incurred after development is complete are recognised as
expenses.
Revenue arising from the sale of property is recognised in the operating statement as at the time of
signing a binding contract of sale.
Land held for resale is classified as current except where it is held as non-current based on Council's
intentions to release for sale.
(i) Fixed Assets
All assets are initially recognised at cost. Cost is determined as the fair value of the assets given as
consideration plus costs incidental to the acquisition. For assets acquired at no cost or for nominal
consideration, cost is determined as fair value at the date of acquisition. The cost of non-current assets
constructed by the local government includes the cost of all materials used in the construction, direct
labour on the project and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead.
Certain asset classes may be revalued on a regular basis such that the carrying values are not materially
different from fair value. Assets carried at fair value are to be revalued with sufficient regularity to ensure
the carrying amount does not differ materially from that determined using fair value at reporting date.
(j) Depreciation of Non-Current Assets
All non-current assets having a limited useful life are systematically depreciated over their useful
lives in a manner which reflects the consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in
those assets.
Depreciation is recognised on a straight-line basis, using rates which are reviewed each reporting
period. Major depreciation rates and periods are:
Buildings 2%
Furniture and Equipment 10-25%
Plant and Equipment 15-25%
Motor Vehicles 25%
Roads - Aggregate 25 years
Roads - Unsealed - Gravel 35 years
Drains and Sewers 75 years
Airfield - Runways 12 years

(k) Trade and Other Payables
Trade and other payables are carried at amortised cost. They represent liabilities for goods and services
provided to the local government prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the
Shire becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services.
The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
(l) Employee Benefits
The provisions for employee benefits relates to amounts expected to be paid for long service leave,
annual leave, wages and salaries and are calculated as follows:
(i) Wages, Salaries, Annual Leave and Long Service Leave (Short-term Benefits)
The provision for employees’ benefits to wages, salaries, annual leave and long service leave expected to
be settled within 12 months represents the amount the Shire has a present obligation to
pay resulting from employees services provided to balance date. The provision has been calculated at
nominal amounts based on remuneration rates the Shire expects to pay and includes related on-costs.
(ii) Annual Leave and Long Service Leave (Long-term Benefits)
The liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the
present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to
the reporting date using the project unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage
and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments
are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on national government bonds with terms to
maturity and currency that match as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. Where the
Shire does not have the unconditional right to defer settlement beyond 12 months, the liability is
recognised as a current liability.
(m) Interest-bearing Loans and Borrowings
All loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received less
directly attributable transaction costs.
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised
cost using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities that are
yield related are included as part of the carrying amount of the loans and borrowings.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Council has an unconditional right to defer
settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.
Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense when incurred except where they are directly attributable
to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. Where this is the case, they are
capitalised as part of the cost of the particular asset.
(n) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when: The council has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of
past events; it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation;
and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement
is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the
likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one of item included in the same class of obligations may be
small.
(o) Current and Non-Current Classification
In the determination of whether an asset or liability is current or non-current, consideration is given to the
time when each asset or liability is expected to be settled. The asset or liability is classified as current
if it is expected to be settled within the next 12 months, being the Council's operational cycle. In the
case of liabilities where Council does not have the unconditional right to defer settlement beyond 12 months,
such as vested long service leave, the liability is classified as current even if not expected to be settled
within the next 12 months. Inventories held for trading are classified as current even if not expected to be
realised in the next 12 months except for land held for resale where it is held as non current based on
Council's intentions to release for sale.

12.6 Review of Regular Passenger Transport Air Routes
File: CP-AERO Officer: Geoff Brooks – CEO Amended by: Nil Disclosure of Interest: Nil Meeting Date: 5 September 2014 Application To consider the implications of the Review of Regular Passenger Transport Air Routes and formulate a response. Background At the end of July 2014 the Minister for Transport released a position paper entitled “Review of Regulated Regular Passenger Transport Air Routes in West Australia”. The executive summary of the review is attached with the full version available on the Department of Transport web site www.transport.wa.gov.au. The Minister has invited written submissions with a closing date of 31 October 2014. As advised in the position paper the Government’s aims with respect to Regular Passenger Transport (RPT) operations are as follows: Ensure an adequate level of RPT air services on regional routes in WA. Foster competition on RPT routes potentially leading to reduced airfares and
more choice for consumers. Ensure that charter air services do not detract from the viability of RPT air
services. Impose minimum costs on the resources sector and charter operators in the
State. Reduce the costs of unnecessary subsidy and red tape and; Minimise direct costs to the State. Review Recommendations As indicated in the attached executive summary the review recommends deregulation of some routes after February 2016 whilst maintaining a regulated service on others. With respect to RPT and Charter operations in the Northern Goldfields (that is. Mount Magnet, Meekatharra, Wiluna, Leinster, Leonora and Laverton) the following recommendations have been made in the position paper: Recommendation 1– Regulate the Northern Goldfields air routes beyond
February 2016, either by maintaining the existing route connections or establishing new route configurations, direct or triangulated, between Perth and the following airports: Laverton, Leonora, Meekatharra, Mt Magnet and Wiluna.
Recommendation 2 – Discontinue Leinster as an RPT airport beyond February 2016 or earlier.
Recommendation 3 – In the interests of maintaining public air services continue to regulate charter operations over unregulated and regulated RPT routes from 2014. This includes the placement of a “special charter condition” on aircraft licences requiring the purchase of a certain number of seats on the RPT service in the cases: a) when the RPT route is regulated AND b) where a charter flight operates on the same day as the RPT service and
there is a difference of less than four hours between the departure time of the RPT service and the departure time of the charter service.
Ordinary Meeting of Council Minutes - 5 September 2014 56 of 84
Comment - Mount Magnet Airport
For the twelve months to 30 June 2014 total inbound and outbound passenger numbers were 23,346 of which only approximately 8% were conveyed by Skippers, the RPT operator.
RPT flights to and from Perth cost in excess of $300 one way. At the end of 2013 the Department of Transport, on a trial basis, approved
Skippers request that Monday and Friday RPT services from Mount Magnet to Perth operate via Meekatharra and Wiluna– a journey taking some five and a half hours
The utilisation of RPT services by Mount Magnet residents is low and is on the decline.
In the Northern Goldfields nearly 90% of RPT passengers were conveyed for work related reasons. The remaining 10 % were conveyed for medical or recreational/family reasons.
It is important that an RPT service continues to operate to and from Mount Magnet. The position paper makes the case that this can only be sustained if the route remains regulated.
To reverse the ongoing decline in Perth bound passengers travelling from Mount Magnet it is imperative that the flights via Meekatharra and Wiluna are discontinued and a more direct route adopted.

12.7 Policy - Significant Council Decisions
File: PO-COUN Officer: Geoff Brooks – CEO Amended by: Nil Disclosure of Interest: Nil Meeting Date: 5 September 2014 Application To adopt as a policy that all Elected Members should be involved in important Council processes such as the recruitment and selection of a CEO. Background At the Ordinary Meeting on 1 August 2014 Council endorsed the appointment of a new CEO. This endorsement followed interviews in Mount Magnet of two candidates by the appointed selection panel, from which a preferred candidate was recommended. Current Position During discussions on the appointment of the new CEO concern was expressed that as not all Councillors were involved in the selection process it was difficult for those not involved to form a view on whom was the preferred candidate. As a result, it was agreed that as matter of policy all Elected Members should be involved in important Council processes such as the recruitment and selection of a CEO. Consultation Cr O’Brien requested that this matter be brought before Council.

Prior to the consideration of Item 12.8 the President left the meeting. The Deputy President took the Chair. 12.8 Windimurra Station Pastoral Lease
File: P-PSTL Officer: Geoff Brooks – CEO Amended by: Nil Disclosure of Interest: Nil Meeting Date: 5 September 2014 Application To endorse a formal approach to the Minister for Lands and the Minister for Agriculture and Food seeking their urgent action to ensure that Windimurra Station does not revert to Unallocated Crown Land on 1 July 2015. Background On 16 June 2014, at the request of the Department of Lands, the Deputy President and CEO met with the Manager Pastoral Lands to be briefed on the Department’s position with respect to Windimurra Station. Broadly the position is as follows: Windimurra Station has been mismanaged for a period of at least ten years with
significant overgrazing that has resulted in severe land degradation. In 2011 a destocking order was imposed on the property and the Department of
Agriculture and Food arranged for the removal of stock from the pastoral lease. The company in whose name the Windimurra Pastoral Lease is held has been
deregistered, owing substantial sums to creditors including the ANZ Bank, the Shires of Mount Magnet and Sandstone and the Murchison Regional Vermin Council.
The existing Windimurra Pastoral Lease is in limbo as the Bank holding the mortgage on the property is not intending to “take possession”. If this situation is not rectified and new lease arrangements entered into prior to 30 June 2015 the land on which Windimurra Station is situated will revert to Unallocated Crown Land (UCL) and hence then become the responsibility of the State. Native Title considerations would then become an issue for any future use of the land.
Reverting to UCL in effect means that the land would be unmanaged, a result that would have significant negative consequences for the four adjoining pastoral properties and the communities of Mount Magnet and Sandstone.
The Department of Lands do not wish to see the Windimurra Station pastoral lease revert to UCL and sought Shire of Mount Magnet support for a meeting to be held in Mount Magnet of all interested parties including the ANZ Bank. The purpose of the meeting was to work out a way forward, with the Department’s preferred option being to divide up the Windimurra lease area and incorporate the resultant parts in the adjoining pastoral leases.
Current Position The meeting referred to above was arranged for 12 August 2014. Unfortunately, with less than 24 hours notice, the meeting was cancelled by the Department of Lands advising that “Legal Issues relating to the ownership of the lease have been raised due to the mortgage holder confirming that they will not be taking possession of the lease”. Further the Department advised “At present it appears that Windimurra Pastoral Lease will expire on 30 June 2015 and will not be renewed on 1 July 2015. As the land would revert to Unallocated Crown Land at this time, it will become possible to re-examine any potential solutions at this time”. This advice was received by email and is at significant odds with previous discussions with Departmental Staff. It is considered unacceptable to give up resolving this issue, in this way.
Ordinary Meeting of Council Minutes - 5 September 2014 66 of 84
To make progress it is recommended that an approach to the Minister for Lands and the Minister for Agriculture and Food for urgent action to ensure that Windimurra Station does not revert to Unallocated Crown Land on 1 July 2015 should be made.

File: PE-STAP Officer: Geoff Brooks - CEO Amended By: Nil Disclosure of Interest: Nil Meeting Date: 5 September 2014 Application To authorise the affixing of the Common Seal to the CEO Contract of Employment.

Background Provision of $7,000 has been made in the 2014/2015 capital works budget for the purchase of computer tablets for the use of Elected Members. Council’s IT service provider Perfect Computer Solutions has produced the attached material which sets out various workable options based on their experience with other Shire Councils. Issues for Consideration In selecting an appropriate product consideration of the following is suggested: Apple Mac or Windows based? Is a Sim card to be installed in the device - thus providing access to the Telstra
network? This requires a separate Telstra account for each device. If a Sim Card is not to be installed in the device will downloading from an internet
connection such as currently at the Shire Office or in many homes suffice?

12.11 Community Sporting & Recreation Facilities Fund Application, Mount
Magnet Memorial Swimming Pool
File: AL-AGR-067 Officer: Geoff Brooks – CEO Amended by: Nil Disclosure of Interest: Nil Ordinary Meeting Date: 5 September 2014 Application To endorse an application to the Department of Sport and Recreation under the Community Sporting and Recreation Facilities Fund to provide a new toddler pool at the Mount Magnet Memorial Swimming Pool complex. Background The Department of Sport and Recreation (“DSR”) offers Annual and Forward Planning Grants through the Community, Sport and Recreation Facilities Fund (“CSRFF”) with local governments and community groups being eligible applicants.

File: A390 Officer: Bill Atyeo - EHO/Building Surveyor Amended By: Nil Disclosure of Interest: Nil Meeting Date: 5 September 2014 Application McGrath Homes have made application to Council on behalf of the University of Western Australia to develop a 6 bedroom 2 bathroom house on Lot 136 (3) Laurie Street in Mount Magnet. Background Council sold this property to the University of WA with the full knowledge that the University wished to construct a residence that a number of students on field exercises could use for accommodation while in Mount Magnet. The availability of accommodation within Mount Magnet is extremely limited and in some cases unsuitable for the need at the time, plus it is expensive. The proposed development is seen as a positive outcome in that bookings through the normal channels is not required, the University costs are significantly reduced, plus the location and environment for students is much better and consistent than relying on availability through hotels and camps. Current Position The land is zoned “Residential” under the Town Planning Scheme, and the proposed development complies with the required Rcodes. The only issue was the disposal of the effluent generated by the use of the dwelling and the designs as presented will or should adequately handle the expected volumes. If problems occur with the disposal of effluent then there is sufficient space to improve the leach drains so that there is no risk to the health and wellbeing of the occupants and the community as a whole. The layout plan as presented adequately allows for the off-street parking of more than normal numbers of vehicles per household and security is well designed for. I feel the proposed development by the University does comply with the Town Planning Scheme and can therefore be approved by Council with some conditions which are reflected in my recommendation.
