RECOMMENDATION
That Council note the report by the Asset Planning Manager to the Services & Organisation
Committee Meeting dated 8 December 2020 providing an update on the status of the 2020/21
Capital Works Program to November 2020 and note the progress of the $4.6m of COVID recovery
funding projects and maintenance activities.



REPORT
The purpose of this report is to inform Council of the overall status and associated activities of the
Capital Works Program to November 2020. The report provides an opportunity to highlight and
discuss projects within the program and confirm the delivery status of projects delivered throughout
the 2020/2021 financial year.

There are 87 active projects in the 2020/21 capital program as at 23 November 2020 (including
the carryover projects from 2019/20) with a combined value of $35.28m.

1.    Current Projects
The major focus in the first two quarters of the financial year is to complete the planning, design
and procurement phases of the projects in preparation for the construction phase. However, some
significant projects are programmed as multi-year projects, meaning they will be delivered over
two or more financial years. Additionally, the majority of design-only projects in the financial year
have commenced in preparedness for the construction phase in future financial years.

Projects currently underway or being delivered across multiple years of the capital program include:
    Hinterland Playground, Cooroy (planning & design)
    Kin Kin Wahpunga Lane Bridge Renewal
    Cooran Tablelands Road Bridge Renewal
    Peregian Beach Stage 3 Rufous St Community House Expansion

2.    Completed Projects
A number of projects were completed during the second quarter. These include but are not limited
to the following projects:
     Sunrise Beach – Orealla Bridge Renewal (Image 1)
     Tewantin, Hilton Terrace intersection upgrade
     Cooroy Library Renewal of CCTV Cameras
Furthermore, the delivery of the 2020/21 road reseal program of approximately $3.8m is nearing
completion across both coastal and hinterland sealed road networks.
