Corporate Plan Reference: A Sustainable Council
Endorsed by Council: <Insert Date of Ordinary Meeting >
Policy Author: Executive Manager
POLICY BACKGROUND
On 24 September 2015 Council agreed to the development of a Carbon Reduction and Energy
Efficiency Plan and on 19 November 2015 Council adopted its Sustainability Principles, with those
principles to be incorporated into Council's key strategy documents. The first principle noted that
resources are to be sustainably managed so that the lifestyle of the community is preserved,
without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
Noosa has a beautiful natural environment and its community is known for a strong commitment to
sustainability and protection of that natural environment. Consequently, Noosa Shire sought and
received recognition as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, aiming to achieve a sustainable balance
between humans and the environment.
Although there is no legislative requirement for councils to have an energy or carbon plan or to
establish carbon emissions targets, many local governments are taking the initiative to be both
proactive and resource efficient. Some Australian local government areas have already committed
to zero emission targets with the aim of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and climate change.
As a leader in developing and managing the sustainability of the shire, Council's own actions to
reduce greenhouse gas emissions demonstrate its commitment to this issue.
Through information and guidance, the community can also be supported to improve sustainability
at the household level.
COUNCIL POLICY
Council commits to a reduction in carbon and greenhouse gas emissions with a view to
establishing a zero emissions target in Council's operations and services. We will lead by example
and become an inspiration to the Noosa Shire community and beyond.
We seek to take meaningful action to reduce the organisation’s impact on climate change_and to
achieve environmental benefits and/or long term cost savings by reducing our overall energy
requirements through a combination of energy efficiency measures and transitioning to renewable
energy sources. In doing so we will build a Council that is increasingly resilient to rising energy and
| fuelpetro! prices and better able to meet our agreed sustainability principles.
The Policy will drive greater efficiency in Council’s use of natural resources by:
a) __ Investing directly in appropriate actions - It is important for the long-term sustainability of
Council’s operations that we are efficient and effective. This includes gaining a better
understanding of current energy usage and reducing the amount of electricity and fuel
consumed, especially where sourced from fossil fuels. Council can potentially make
improvements via new technologies and options that focus on clean energy.

GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA 16 MAY 2016
COUNCIL POLICY - <INSERT POLICY TITLE>
b) Leading by example and inspiring change - Council’s own actions to reduce greenhouse
gas emissions have the ability to demonstrate best practice options to the community.
Cc) Measuring and monitoring — Council can not only set a zero emissions target, but also
staged and achievable targets in pursuit of that goal. Monitoring and measuring progress will
be an important aspect of our approach.
Council will establish a feasible but courageous date by which it aims to have total Council
operations and activities achieving zero greenhouse gas and carbon emissions. This will be
supported by a Zero Emissions Action Plan to be developed.
ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Council is grateful to have received contributions and advice from many community members,
particularly with regards to developing a possible Noosa Future Energy Plan. Council will continue
to provide opportunities for community participation in developing a zero emissions target.
This Policy will have implications for every Noosa Council department. A rational approach will be
taken including setting realistic timeframes and targets, identifying strategic options, pinpointing
potential barriers and developing actions.

DEFINITIONS
Emissions
Emissions in this policy refers to CO2 emissions.
Zero Emissions
The term zero net emissions and carbon neutral can be used interchangeably. Being carbon
neutral means that the net greenhouse gas emissions associated with an organisation’s or
Council’s activities are equal to zero. It is achieved through a combination of measuring and
reducing greenhouse gas emissions and purchasing of carbon offsets.

Corporate Plan Reference: ‘Working in partnership with our community’
Endorsed by Council: <signature> <DD Month, YYYY>
Policy Author: Local Laws Coordinator
POLICY BACKGROUND
The purpose of this policy is to provide guidance to Noosa Councilss-ocalLaws—team— staff _for
managing and, where necessary, removing roadside memorials within Noosa Shire_in response to a
complaint or issues of safety and nuisance.-
Pursuant to section 2, Schedule 7 ‘Alteration or improvement to local government controlled areas and
roads’ of the Noosa Shire Council Subordinate Local Law No 1 (Administration) 2015, an approval is
| not required for an installation beside a road of a memorial ... comprising of a-white-cross_provided the
installation complies with the local government policy for the activity. The temporary placement of floral
tributes, plastic flowers and memorabilia at the memorial location is also acceptable. All roadside
memorials must comply with this policy.
POLICY
Council does not encourage the placement of roadside memorials within Council controlled road
reserves, but recognises that some members of the community may wish to temporarily commemorate
the passing of a loved one as a result of a road or other accident by installing a roadside memorial.
Council has provided the mechanism for members of the community to put in place a temporary
memorial without approval subject to the requirements specified in the local laws and this policy.
This policy has been developed to ensure that roadside memorials:
(a) Are placed in a safe location.
(b) Can be easily maintained.
(c) Do not cause issues for nearby property owners and users of the area.
(d) Do not create a hazard to road users, cyclists or pedestrians.
| The location of a roadside memorial should be selected to minimise the—risk-of-safety risks to all
persons and any interference to nearby properties and users of the surrounding area.
A roadside memorial must be located in a position where it will not:
(a) Distract driver attention or interfere with the role of any traffic control item.
(b) Be hazardous to passing traffic, cyclists and/or pedestrians, or prevent appropriate maintenance
of the road reserve.
(c) Cause interference with the nearby residences or users of the area.
Unless otherwise approved by way of formal application, all memorials (including floral tributes and
memorabilia) are to be temporary and thus remain in place for a maximum period of 3 months.

| damage, _or removal of roadside memorials that may occur due to required road maintenance,
construction activities or vandalism.
Any person visiting a memorial must take due care for their own safety and the safety of others
including motorists, pedestrians and cyclists. Council does not encourage the gathering of persons
within the road reserve.
Removal of Memorial
If there are any concerns raised with Council about public safety or interference to nearby residents or
users of the area surrounding a memorial as a result of persons visiting the memorial, or the placement
and construction of the memorial itself (including the proliferation of floral tributes and memorabilia),
Council will investigate the matter and an authorised person may determine that it is appropriate to
remove the memorial.
Appropriate reasons for the removal of a roadside memorial may include the following:
| (a) _ The memorial is considered by an authorised person to be a road or public safety hazard.
(b) Road works are required at the relevant location.
| (cd) An objection or complaint is made to Council by nearby residents, businesses, road users, or
users of the area surrounding the memorial in regards to any aspect of the roadside memorial,
including the activity of visitors to the memorial or loss of amenity and, in the opinion of an
authorised person, that objection or complaint is considered reasonable.
(de) The memorial has not been adequately maintained.
(e) _ The memorial interferes with garden or roadside maintenance.
| Fhe-memorialinterferes_with_garden_or roadside_maintenance—Where possible, Council officers will
attempt to contact and consult the persons responsible for erecting the memorial prior to its removal.

Index ECM/Subject/7.09 – 2015/2016 Budget
Attachments 1. Proposed Budget Adjustments – Operating
2. Proposed Budget Adjustments – Capital
3. Summary of Submissions
4. Revised Budget Financial Statements
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Local Government Act 2009 and Local Government Regulation 2012 require Council to
undertake regular reviews of the adopted budget to ensure it remains reflective of planned
activities to be funded through the budget period. Consequently, a full review of all budgets has
been undertaken using income and expenditure figures as at the end of March 2016.
RECOMMENDATION
That Council note the report by the Manager Financial Services to the General Committee
Meeting dated 16 May 2016 and approve the requested changes to the budget for the 2015/16
financial year, as outlined in the attached Budget Financial Statements.
REPORT
Section 170(3) of the Local Government Regulation 2012 allows Council, by resolution, to amend
the budget at any time before the end of the financial year. As such, formal reviews have been
scheduled to be undertaken following the close of each quarter (July to September; October to
December; January to March), using year-to-date figures as the basis for any revised forecasts.
This review provides an opportunity to take account of any additional information that has come
to light since the last review and to ensure the most accurate figures are included in the year-end
forecast. The March quarter review establishes a revised 30 June position, which then forms the
basis for development of the 2016/17 budget and the ensuing 10-year financial plan.
The Revised Budget Financial Statements clearly identify statement line items that have been
affected by the proposed adjustments.
Key considerations for Council’s budget adjustments include:
All increases in operating expenditure should be funded. If variances cannot be funded at
the branch or departmental level, then operational savings, determined after collaboration
with other departments, should be identified to ensure no degradation in the overall
operating position for Council.
Proposed reallocation of savings or additional revenue will be confirmed by the leadership
team based on business risk assessment.
The business capacity to deliver the adopted works program should be considered as part
of the evaluation process for all projects.

GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA 16 MAY 2016
1. Operating Budget Adjustments
There have been a number of adjustments to the operating budget proposed, as outlined in
Attachment 1, with an overall improvement in the operating position of $68,644. Requests for
additional expenditure have been fully funded with savings or additional revenue.
Highlighted proposed budget adjustments include:
Rental income – additional revenue from ferry operations due to favourable weather
conditions through the summer period.
Sales Revenue – increased revenue from holiday parks due to favourable weather
conditions, plus an increase in revenue from gallery operations.
Grants and subsidies – operating – recognition of additional grant revenue received (offset
by expenditure) for traineeships undertaken, Home Assist, and community development
(Active Mums).
Other recurrent income – additional sales from the purchase and resale of replacement
bins to Cleanaway in accordance with the contract.
Employee benefits – adjustments aligning to actual YTD expenditure, including a higher
allocation of labour costs to capital projects than originally estimated.
Materials and services – additional expenditure to reflect grants; asset management plan
development ($72k); minor reallocations between contract services and employee costs;
adjustments between line items for fleet management; implementation of a proposed Flying
Fox management plan for Wallace Park ($33k); adjustments within Works Operations
between gravel roads and quarry operations; and reallocation of operational funding to the
capital program ($11k NAC and $15k Tewantin Admin building).
2. Capital Works Program Adjustments
There have been a number of adjustments to the capital works program to reflect emergent
renewal works undertaken and variations across different programs. Details for changes to each
program are outlined in Attachment 2. The total program has increased by $143,680 with no
significant impact expected on the ability to deliver the current program. The majority of
adjustments relate to the reallocation of funding from the Emergent renewals budget to specific
projects, and to also account for savings on completed projects.
Previous Council Consideration
The budget was amended in February 2016 to account for adjustments identified from the
December quarter.
Finance & Risk
There has been a slight increase to the operating result following the budget review, and overall
Council is forecasting a surplus of $950k.
Apart from the $142k in new upgrade projects, changes to the capital program are largely funded
through the rescheduling of projects and redirection from the Emergent Works allocation. Capital
program changes do not impact the operating position, though the forecast cash position is
marginally reduced.
All financial sustainability ratios remain within (or exceed) target ranges, as outlined in the
attached Budget Financial Statements.

RECOMMENDATION
That Council note the report by the Manager Financial Services to the General Committee
Meeting dated 16 May 2016 providing the April YTD monthly financial performance report for the
2015/16 financial year.
REPORT
Recurrent Revenue (YTD Benchmark 83%)
Council has received 97% ($85 million) of its recurrent revenue budget of $88 million as at the
end of April 2016. Commentary on each recurrent revenue type is provided below:
Rates and Levies – $60.6m (100%) of the annual budget of $60.5m has been recorded.
General rates are marginally below forecast levels although waste collection charges
exceed budget.
Fees and Charges – Fees and charges earned ($5.0m) totals 99% of the revised full year
forecast. Planning, development, parking fees, land use permits, and property searches
fees continue to exceed current YTD estimates. Variances were reviewed to determine the
need for possible changes to the year-end forecast, though no adjustments have been
recommended.
Interest Received – Currently 7.6% above YTD forecast levels due to cash flow timing
issues. No adjustments to the year-end forecast have been proposed at this stage with the
recent reduction in the official cash rate likely to result in lower returns through until the end
of June.
Dividend and Tax – Dividends and the payment of tax equivalent from Unitywater are in
line with budget forecasts.
Other Revenue – holiday parks, rental income, and waste fees continue to be above
budget forecasts, with sale of recyclable materials (concrete and scrap metal) below
forecasts. Sale of quarry products for material used in the construction of Dr Pages Road
has contributed to the overall variance ($284k), offset by an increase in operational costs
(cost of product sales).
Grants and Subsidies – Receipts for operational grants are generally tracking in
accordance with adjustments to the revised budget forecast.

GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA 16 MAY 2016
Recurrent Expenditure (YTD Benchmark 83%)
Operating expenditure is currently 77% of the full year budget forecast. Detailed commentary for
significant items appears below.
Employee Costs – Actuals of $22.2m against the YTD budget of $22.4m and equates to
80% of the full year budget. Whilst the total is within the budget, this is actually represented
by a range of minor variances across operational areas, including allocation of wages to
capital projects and staff training, which will continue to be monitored.
Materials and Services – $28.8m (72%) of the full year budget has been expended
compared to the YTD budget of $30.9m. Variances relate to under-expenditure against
contract services, maintenance, and special levies ($451k). Specifically, there is under-
expenditure against buildings and facilities maintenance ($149k), savings against fleet
operations associated with lower fuel prices and savings to lease and insurance costs
($329k); Waste operations are currently running under original forecasts ($503k); and Civil
Operations is currently running approximately $98k behind forecast levels (including the
impact of quarry materials sales). Adjustments have been proposed as part of the March
quarter budget review.
Finance Costs – generally in accordance with budget. It is noted that QTC undertake an
annual review of interest rates against the current market, and have restructured all loans
effective from 1 April 2016. The outcome has been the conversion of loans from variable
interest rates to fixed-rate/fixed-term loans with no impact on budget forecasts for the
current year.
Depreciation expenses are currently running in accordance with budget forecasts, with
minor adjustments for assets sold through the year.
Other Expenses – generally in accordance with budget.

progress in the delivery of the capital works program is provided through a separate report by the
Infrastructure Planning & Design Manager.

Asset Management Plan’
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Not applicable.
RECOMMENDATION
That Council note the report by the Chief Executive Officer to the General Committee Meeting
dated 16 May 2016 in respect to the Tewantin Campus of the Sunshine Coast Institute of TAFE
(Noosa) located at 24 Cooroy Noosa Road, Tewantin and in response to the State Government’s
consultation process on Developing a Ten Year Strategic Training Asset Management Plan,
Council resolves that:
1. Council’s Economic Implementation Plan supports retention of the site for the purposes of
training and education and this continues to be Council’s preferred option as the best
solution for the Noosa community;
2. Council considers that short term solutions may be worthy of consideration to limit further
deterioration of the site assets, subject to any town planning requirements;
3. The State should resolve the long term position at the earliest possible time and in the
event that the TAFE assessment indicates no match with any training and education
demand, that Expressions of Interest should be formally advertised inviting offers from
interested parties for use of the site based on the high level principles set out in the
consultation document; and
4. The Chief Executive Officer provide a submission to the State Government in accordance
with the details set out in the report.
REPORT
The purpose of this report is to determine Council’s position for the future of the Sunshine Coast
Institute of TAFE (Noosa) – Tewantin Campus in order to inform the State Government’s
consultation process on Developing a Ten Year Strategic Training Asset Management Plan for
Queensland. The consultation period closes on 27 May 2016.

Overlays The site is classified 100% as “environmental protection” under the
Biodiversity overlay of the Noosa Plan. The vegetation is also “regulated
vegetation” under the Vegetation Management Act with 60% classified as
endangered and the balance adjacent to the cemetery classified as “not of
concern”.
Any proposed operational works would require referral to the State for the
“endangered” vegetation. There is development potential in the “not of
concern” area which is able to be managed by Council.
Improvements The site contains significant building structures including lecture room,
caretaker’s residence and a substantial kiln together with other site
improvements (e.g. internal driveway and pathways).
Build year 2003/04
The site is bound by the Tewantin Cemetery, Noosa-Tewantin Golf Club and Noosa District
Sports Complex as shown in Fig 1 below.
Fig 1: Aerial photo TAFE Facility
In November, 2012 the LNP State Government adopted a taskforce report that resulted in the
closing of 13 campuses including the Tewantin site while 12 other sites were merged between
Central Queensland University and the Central Queensland Institute of TAFE. The Tewantin
Campus has been vacant since 1 July, 2014 leading to community concerns about the loss of a
valuable education and training facility and various ideas being floated for reactivation of use of
the site.

Section 39
GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA 16 MAY 2016
The LNP government established Queensland Training Assets Management Authority (QTAMA)
to manage all State training assets. Since late 2014 a number of discussions and joint
inspections have occurred and Council has actively endeavoured to expedite a decision on the
future of the site.
The QTAMA Repeal Bill (2015) was passed by the Queensland Parliament on 15 July 2015
abolishing the Authority and returning the control of Queensland’s training assets to the
Department of Education & Training.
In the meantime the Tewantin campus assets have continued to deteriorate and remain vacant.
The current State Government has developed a State wide Consultation Paper – Developing a
Ten Year Strategic Training Asset Management Plan for Queensland (April 2016) – Refer
Attachment 1. The Minister has invited feedback over a broad range of possible aspects,
including, but not necessarily limited to:
Key issues influencing training and skills in Queensland
Trends and new training methods
Effectiveness and suitability of training assets
Options for training assets that don't meet community and training needs
Ways the government can ensure that assets maximise training and skills outcomes
The draft decision making framework being developed as part of the Strategic Training
Asset Management Plan.
The Government’s intent is to use a decision making framework outlined in the consultation
paper to match training and skills demand with suitable asset management options. High level
principles have also been developed that give priority to the following needs:
1. Training needs - primarily available for this purpose, priority access available for TAFE or
other complementary training partners.
2. Education needs – primarily available to support education services by the State
Department for Education & Training or higher education parties; and/or higher education
and training parties.
3. Government needs – to support service delivery needs of State, Federal or Local
government.
4. Other needs – to support community needs, market-led and other proposals.
The planned approach appears reasonable.
CONSIDERATION OF COUNCIL POSITION
The approved Implementation Plan for the Noosa Economic Plan provides for Council to
continue to advocate for reactivation of the TAFE site to enable delivery of training and education
opportunities for the Noosa community. This aligns with the order of priorities 1 and 2 outlined in
the high level principles as set out above.
Council has no requirement for the site to meet its service needs under priority 3.
It is suggested that Council support the approach under priority 4 that market-led and other
proposals be “last resort” options for permanent solutions, but Council would also support this
approach in the short-term until the Government has determined its final position. It is
understood that CCIQ Noosa will be submitting a “Renew Australia” type model for use of the site
as a short term option which would limit further deterioration of the asset. The concept is
Page 39 of 53
Section 40
GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA 16 MAY 2016
considered worthy of consideration by the State as an interim measure but it does have Noosa
Plan implications and may require impact assessment (depending on the proposed uses).
The State should resolve the preferred long term use with Council’s preference that it continues
as a venue for training and/or education purposes. In the event of the TAFE assessment
indicating no match with training and education demand, an Expressions of Interest should be
formally advertised for the site inviting offers from interested parties.
While some consideration has previously been given to our Council purchasing this site, our
preferred position is that the site is used for training and / or education purposes by relevant
State or non-government education institutions. If this can be achieved without the use of
ratepayer’s funds, that would be our best outcome. If the State is unable to identify any other
training and / or education use of the site via this consultation process, then an EOI process
would determine if there was a market demand for this site and the Council could consider at that
time whether we should consider a site purchase and that of course, would depend upon any
cost/benefit analysis. Our focus at this stage should be “activation” of the site, not ownership.
PROPOSED SUBMISSION
It is proposed that the Council make a submission to the State in relation to this matter along the
following lines:
The State government has a valuable asset in the Noosa community which has been
vacant for too long.
The TAFE asset is deteriorating and the State needs to make a decision sooner rather than
later in relation to the future of this site.
In the meantime, our Council would support any proposal which re-activates the site in the
short term (subject to any town planning considerations) while the longer term future of the
site is determined.
Noosa Council is generally supportive of the overall “high level principles” approach
identified by the State in its consultation paper, namely that the priorities for sites such as
the Tewantin TAFE site are:
(i) training needs;
(ii) education needs;
(iii) government needs; and
(iv) other needs.
In particular, we are supportive of the Tewantin TAFE site being primarily used for training
and / or education needs. It is a purpose built training / education facility built by the State
government for that specific purpose only 12 years ago.
Noosa Council does not have any specific local government purposes that would require
the use of this site for our day to day Council operations.
In the event that the State is unable to identify any training and / or education use of the
site under its high level principles 1 or 2, the State should call for Expressions of Interest for
this site noting the land use zoning of the facility. At that stage, our Council may consider
whether to participate in any EOI process.
The State government should set a timeframe (ideally within 3 months) within which it
should make a final determination on the future of this site.
Previous Council Consideration
While informal discussions have occurred at Local Member, Mayor, Councillor and officer level,
Council has not previously formally determined its position in relation to the future of the TAFE
facility.

_ Minister's message
6!
Lo] / The Palaszczuk Government is committed to economic growth and supporting
ae i Queenslanders to develop the skills to get a job.
The future of Queensland and our communities depends heavily upon the delivery of
eo training and skills services to enable individuals to achieve employment outcomes.
Our Government is delivering on its promises and has abolished the former Queensland
Training Assets Management Authority that was established to manage state-owned
training assets.
The Queensland Government recognises that growing the Queensland economy requires
investment in skills and training. To support the creation of jobs into the future we have
introduced a range of initiatives including:
* the Skilling Queenslanders for Work initiative worth $240 million over four years, to
support up to 32,000 job seekers
¢ using advice from the newly established Jobs Queensland to inform training priorities
* reinvesting in TAFE Queensland to restore its status as Queensland’s premier public
provider of vocational education and training; and
¢ establishing the Queensland Training Ombudsman.
The development of a ten year Strategic Training Asset Management Plan for the future
of the State’s training assets is part of this Government's response to deliver investment
required to maximise training and skills outcomes for current and future generations of
Queenslanders.
This consultation paper has been developed at a state-wide level to seek a range of
views on the key issues influencing training and skills and about the assets that support
delivery of services by TAFE Queensland.
| welcome all interested stakeholders to submit their feedback on this consultation paper
and look forward to releasing the draft plan for further consultation in 2016.

The STAMP is being developed to support training and skills

This is why we are keen to hear what people believe should
be done for state-owned training assets in their local
area to deliver training needs and address issues where
assets may not be adequately servicing the needs of our
communities.

Queensland's training asset portfolio consists of over 40
training facilities across the state- see Figure 1.
The State’s training assets include land, buildings, plant
and equipment. They are distributed across the state and
aged between 5 and 35+ years, varying in condition, scale
and function.
TAFE Queensland is the state’s premier public provider of
training, operating from the state-owned training assets
and other facilities. DET is the owner of the assets and
works in partnership with TAFE Queensland to maintain and
manage the assets.
Other users of the State’s training assets may include:
* complementary training partners of TAFE Queensland
* other education and training organisations
* community groups
* commercial tenants
¢ Government departments.
Central Queensland state-owned training assets were
previously transferred to Central Queensland University
which owns and manages these training assets. The Central
Queensland training assets are not included within the
scope of developing the STAMP.
Other public training providers such as agricultural colleges
are not within the scope of the STAMP.

Considerations
To ensure that the use of training assets are optimised
and that we can continue to deliver on the training needs
of our communities, various other factors will need to be
considered, such as:
¢ Population growth and demographics
* Changing workforce requirements
* Community profiles and needs
* Current and future skills and training demand
¢ TAFE Queensland training needs forecast
* Learning styles and methods
* Specialised and generic training facilities
¢ Use, condition and ‘fit for purpose’ assessment of assets
* Location and proximity of the ‘asset base’ to meet
training demand (driven by industry and population)
¢ Value to the community
* Budgetary and fiscal constraints.
