Adoption of the Disability Access and Inclusion Plan 2019 - 2024.

ATTACHMENTS

OMC191024-11.1.5.A Disability Access and Inclusion Plan (DAIP) 2019 - 2024

OMC191024-11.1.5.B Disability Access and Inclusion Plan Implementation Plan 2019- 2024


Not applicable.

BACKGROUND

The Western Australia Disability Services Act, 1993 (amended 2004), requires all Local Governments to develop and implement a Disability Access and Inclusion Plan (DAIP) to ensure that people with disability have equal access to its facilities and services.



Planning to provide good access for people with disability will also provide benefits to other members of the community who may be disadvantaged in terms of access, such as parent/carers with prams, seniors, people who have a temporary disability, small children and people from cultural and linguistically diverse backgrounds.

The Shire of Laverton is committed to ensuring that the community is accessible for, and inclusive, of people with disability, their families and carers.




Disability Services Act 1993 (WA)

The Disability Services Act 1993 (WA) and its 2004 amendments, require that all State and local government authorities implement a DAIP. The purpose is for the relevant authority to ensure that people with disability have equal access to its facilities and services.

Equal Opportunity Act 1984 (WA)

Commonwealth Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) Access to Premises/Buildings 2011

United Nations Convention on the Rights of People with Disabilities (UNCRPD)

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS

POLICY IMPLICATIONS

The appropriate legislative objectives have been achieved during the 2013-2019 Plan and leading up to the adoption of the new Plan.




The revised DAIP is consistent with the Social, Economic and Environmental and Civic Leadership Objectives and Outcomes of the Laverton Strategic Community Plan 2016 to 2026 and the DAIP can be seen to be entwined in the various outcomes following:

Outcome 1.1 A strong sense of community pride and ownership 1.1.1 Encourage community participation 1.1.3 Maintain and develop community spaces and resources



Outcome 3.2 Modern, well maintained other built infrastructure 3.2.2 Well maintained service provision buildings 3.2.3 Well maintained parks, gardens, sport and recreation facilities 3.2.4 Support the development of short stay accommodation facilities

Outcome 4.1 Clean, safe and tidy environment 4.1.2 Effective community and stakeholder engagement

Outcome 4.2 Organisational Development 4.2.2 Provide high level of services

Outcome 4.3 Improved planning 4.3.1 Continue to review and improve organisational plans

CONSULTATION

The Disability Services Act Regulations (2004) set out the minimum consultation requirements for public authorities in relation to Disability Access and Inclusion Plans (DAIPs).

Local Governments must call for submissions (either general or specific) by notice in a newspaper circulating in the Local Government area or on any website maintained by or on behalf of the Local Government. Other mechanisms may also be used.

The following consultation methods were used:

Desktop review of previous plan 2013 – 2019.

A four week public consultation period was advertised for local businesses, government departments/agencies and the wider community to provide feedback and suggestions in relation to the draft DAIP.

‘Easy to Read’ paper survey produced and distributed through the Shire Administration Office, Community Resource Centre (CRC), Great Beyond Visitor Centre, and Cashless Debit Card (CDC) office.

DAIP consultation events promoted in the Shire newsletter - The Sturt Pea, on the Shire website, Facebook pages and through the Laverton Stakeholders Group meeting.

Local Northern Goldfields newspaper produced an article on the Shire’s DAIP consultation events.

Consultation sessions took place in the CRC, Council Chambers, CDC office, at the Hospital, 1:1 sessions, at the Crisis Centre and at the Department of Communities office.

Draft plan produced based upon the feedback received along with previous review outcomes.

Draft Plan has been checked and approved by the Department of Communities for compliance.



COMMENT

The consultation and review found that much had been done to achieve positive progress since the last DAIP in 2013, however, it also identified a variety of remaining barriers to access and inclusion, to be addressed in the new DAIP Implementation Plan 2019 to 2024.

Thirty one people responded to the consultation; made up of people with disability, carers, service providers, tourists, individuals and families.

As a result of the consultation, a number of key themes emerged including:

Making information such as the Shire newsletter ‘The Sturt Pea’ more accessible Access improvements to footpaths Increasing the number of dropped kerbs and access ramps Improving the provision of accessible parking Staff awareness and training

All comments and suggestions from the community will be considered for implementation as part of the ongoing DAIP work, subject to budget constraints.

It is proposed that a Disability Advisory Committee (DAC), be established that will oversee and guide the implementation, monitoring and review of the Shire of Laverton’s DAIP. The DAC will be a representative group who will:

Present the views of people with a disability

Help to raise issues and concerns that affect people with a disability within the Shire of Laverton

Prioritise and suggest ways to improve access within the Shire of Laverton

VOTING REQUIREMENTS



MOVED: Cr R Weldon SECONDED: Cr J Carmody

That the Council adopt the Disability Access and Inclusion Plan (DAIP) 2019 to 2024 (Attachment OMC191024-11.1.5.A) and the DAIP Implementation Plan (Attachment OMC191024-11.1.5.B).





11.1.6 DISPOSE OF PROPERTIES AT 8 CABLE STREET AND 11 MIKADO WAY BY PUBLIC TENDER (FILE REF: 0007)

SUBMISSION TO: Ordinary Meeting of Council, 24 October 2019 DISCLOSURE OF INTEREST: The author has no financial interest in this matter OWNER/APPLICANT: Not applicable AUTHOR: Phil Marshall, Deputy Chief Executive Officer SENIOR OFFICER: Peter Naylor, Chief Executive Officer PREVIOUS MEETING REFERENCE: Resolution OMC180919.09 of Ordinary Meeting of

Council held on 19 September 2018


That the Council consider the following proposals on two (2) properties held by the Council:

8 Cable Street, Laverton 11 Mikado Way, Laverton

ATTACHMENTS

Not applicable


Not applicable.

BACKGROUND

8 Cable Street, Laverton

The Council at its Ordinary Meeting on 19 September 2018 resolved to sell 8 Cable Street as per Council Resolution OMC180919.09. The administration has been working with the buyer and due to various circumstances, the buyer advised the Council on Thursday 21 March 2019 that she could no longer proceed with the purchase. The main issue is the re-connection of the power.

The property at 8 Cable Street is considered surplus to the Council’s requirements and as such will be subject to a further report for disposal from the respective section of the Council to determine future use along with other Council properties. The CEO would like to undertake a complete review of all Council housing.

11 Mikado Way, Laverton

This property is considered surplus to Council’s requirements and does not reflect the overall strategy which the CEO has for the Council’s properties and will be further addressed through the Council briefing session.







Section 3.58 – Disposing of property (1) In this section — dispose includes to sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of, whether

absolutely or not; property includes the whole or any part of the interest of a local

government in property, but does not include money.

(2) Except as stated in this section, a local government can only dispose of property to —

(a) the highest bidder at public auction; or (b) the person who at public tender called by the local government

makes what is, in the opinion of the local government, the most acceptable tender, whether or not it is the highest tender.

(3) A local government can dispose of property other than under subsection (2) if, before agreeing to dispose of the property —

(a) it gives local public notice of the proposed disposition — (i) describing the property concerned; and (ii) giving details of the proposed disposition; and (iii) inviting submissions to be made to the local government

before a date to be specified in the notice, being a date not less than 2 weeks after the notice is first given;

and (b) it considers any submissions made to it before the date

specified in the notice and, if its decision is made by the council or a committee, the decision and the reasons for it are recorded in the minutes of the meeting at which the decision was made.

(4) The details of a proposed disposition that are required by subsection (3)(a)(ii) include —

(a) the names of all other parties concerned; and (b) the consideration to be received by the local government for

the disposition; and (c) the market value of the disposition — (i) as ascertained by a valuation carried out not more than

6 months before the proposed disposition; or



(ii) as declared by a resolution of the local government on the basis of a valuation carried out more than 6 months before the proposed disposition that the local government believes to be a true indication of the value at the time of the proposed disposition.

(5) This section does not apply to — (a) a disposition of an interest in land under the Land

Administration Act 1997 section 189 or 190; or (b) a disposition of property in the course of carrying on a trading

undertaking as defined in section 3.59; or (c) anything that the local government provides to a particular

person, for a fee or otherwise, in the performance of a function that it has under any written law; or

(d) any other disposition that is excluded by regulations from the application of this section.

POLICY IMPLICATIONS



The Council in its 2019/2020 budget has allocated the following to these properties:

11 Mikado Way Budget $9650 Actual expenditure to date $877.42 Includes - Insurance, water and rubbish charge

8 Cable Street Budget $16300 Actual Expenditure to date $918.12 Includes - Insurance, water and rubbish charges

The Council would be aware that following the sale not proceeding with 8 Cable Street, a budget allocation was made to demolish the property, and the budget reflects this allocation.

In the true sense, the Council will see a savings of approximately $20,000 in next year’s budget for housing operations and maintenance which can be utilised in other areas.


The Council’s Community Strategic Plan refers: Proud, spirited, harmonious and connected community

A strong sense of community pride and ownership

Revitalised, green, welcoming and safe natural and built environment Safe and efficient transport network Modern, well maintained Other Built Infrastructure Clean, safe and tidy environment



CONSULTATION


COMMENT

The Council will recall that 31 Craiggie Street will be disposed following the conclusion of the advertising period for the sale of non-payment of rates. The advertising period closes on 19 November 2019.

The purpose of this report is to seek Council’s approval to also dispose of 8 Cable Street and 11 Mikado Way by public tender.

The two properties are considered surplus to Council’s requirements and the factors behind the recommendation are:

Power is not connected to 8 Cable Street and is cost prohibitive when compared to the asset’s value.

Whilst the condition of 11 Mikado Way is marginal, the input to the return does not justify a recommendation to add further expenditure to a poor asset.

The Council has recently addressed lease agreement arrangements incorporating inspections for Council owned properties. With the return of 2 Boomerang Street back into the fold after being leased to the Department of Communities, the Council has suitable properties to meet the current staffing needs.

In saying this, there is a trend and mindful decisions will need to be addressed through the use of the transportable buildings held at the airport and this can be further enhanced by adding onto a service provider within the town.

The aim is for the Council to approve for the disposal of the two properties by public tender and the recommendation also includes that the CEO and the Shire President are given due authority to sign and affix the Common Seal of Council on any documents which occur through the tender process, averting the need to come back to Council for further approval.

The Council is asked to provide a minimum acceptance value and for the Council’s consideration, the administration recommends:

8 Cable Street - $4,000.00 which equates to land value from a recent sale within the town;

11 Mikado Way - $15,000-00 based upon condition and what would be required to bring the house up to a condition.

In the case where the minimum amounts set cannot be achieved, then the proposals will be returned to Council for the final approval.

Following the Local Government Elections, it is required that Council review the appointment of various Elected Members to positions on various committees and panels which the Shire is a member of.

BACKGROUND

In previous years the Shire has for some periods operated with various committees, and for other periods operated without committees. In 1999 and 2000 Council operated without standing committees, however it did have a committee made up of some Councillors, staff and members of the public, to plan and co-ordinate the Laverton Centenary Celebrations.

Except on specific occasions, Council Committees have not generally been given “delegated authority” to make any decisions and all recommendations made at committee level are referred to full Council for adoption.

Apart from the mandatory Audit Committee which consists of all Elected Members, Council also has two other standard committees in operation at present. These are:

Local Emergency Management Committee (LEMC) - (established on 20 October 2011).

Laverton Aerodrome Emergency Committee (LAEC) – (established on 21 March 2013).



Additionally in May 2015 (Minute OMC150515), Council agreed to the formation of the Friends of Laverton Cemetery Advisory Group. This Advisory Group presently includes seven members of the public.

It should be noted that this is not the only opportunity to establish committees for specific purposes. Therefore, if an occasion calls for the establishment of a committee during the next two years, Council can consider this at any time.




Section 5.8 – Provides that a local government may establish* committees of three or more persons to exercise the powers and discharge the duties of the local government that can be delegated to committees.

*Absolute majority required.

Section 5.9 – A committee is to comprise: (a) Council members only; (b) Council members and employees; (c) Council members, employees and other persons; (d) Council members and other persons; (e) employees and other persons; or (f) other persons only

Section 5.11 (2) – Provides that the tenure of a person’s appointment to a committee, amongst other circumstances, will expire at the next ordinary election day (i.e. in October 2017);

Section 7.1A – Deals with the requirement for local governments to establish an audit committee of three or more persons to exercise the powers and duties conferred upon it by both the Act and the Local Government (Audit) Regulations 1996. Neither the CEO nor an employee can be a member of the audit committee.

Section 7.1B – Despite section 5.5, the only powers and duties that a local government may delegate* to its audit committee are any of its powers and duties under Part 7 other than this power of delegation.

*Absolute majority required.

Section 7.1C – Despite section 5.20, a decision of an audit committee is to be made by a simple majority.

Local Government (Audit) Regulations 1996

Regulation 16 – An audit committee:- (a) is to provide guidance and assistance to the local government:

(i) as to the carrying out of its functions in relation to audits carried out under Part 7 of the Act; and

(b) may provide guidance and assistance to the local government as to: (i) matters to be audited; (ii) the scope of audits; (iii) its functions under Part 6 of the Act; and (iv) the carrying out of its functions relating to other audits and

emergency management arrangements are established for its district;

(b) To liaise with public authorities and other persons in the development, review and testing of local emergency management arrangements; and

(c) To carry out other emergency management activities as directed by the SEMC or prescribed by the regulations.

Civil Aviation Safety Regulations 1998 (Commonwealth Regulations) Reg.139.205 – (1) The operator of a certified aerodrome must establish an aerodrome

emergency committee. (2) An offence against sub regulation (1) is an offence of strict liability. (3) The committee must include a representative from any fire, police

or other emergency service that, having regard to the location of the aerodrome, would be likely to assist if there were an emergency at the aerodrome.

Cemeteries Act 1986

Section 6 – Where an order is made or is deemed to have been made under section 5 vesting the care, control and management of a cemetery in a local government authority, the authority shall, subject to this Act and to any necessary modifications, perform and subject to the duties imposed on Boards under this Act; and references in this Act to a Board or Boards shall be construed accordingly in relation to such a local government authority as the case may require.

Section 24(1)(b) – A Board shall preserve and maintain a cemetery in a safe, clean and orderly condition.

COMMENT

The appropriate time for Council to consider the formation of committees, is immediately following ordinary elections, due to the potential change in the membership of Council.

Audit Committee The Audit Committee may comprise of any number of Council members equal to or exceeding three in number. In addition, Council may nominate an independent individual who is not an employee or contractor to Council to be a member of the Audit Committee. While in the past it was the practice to elect only some members of Council to the Audit Committee, it has been Council practice to include all Councillors on the Audit Committee for some years, as this provides the opportunity for those interested to address issues in relation to the conduct of the audit and to be proactive in determining the manner of addressing issues raised by the auditor.

Recommendation 1 of this report provides for the establishment of an Audit Committee comprising all Councillors with a quorum of four members. The scope of the Audit Committee’s role follows that established at the January 2009 meeting.

Local Emergency Management Committee (LEMC) Section 38 of the Emergency Management Act 2005 requires that each local government is to establish a LEMC. In establishing (reappointing) a LEMC, Council is also to appoint the Chairman in accordance with section 38(3). The Chairman should be a Councillor, however does not necessarily have to be. The committee itself is currently comprised of:

Chairman (President) LEMC Coordinator (OIC Laverton Police) Other persons, being representatives from:

- Hazard Management agencies



- State government agencies - Local industries as required

From a local perspective, the above (other persons) translates to the following:

Emergency Service Agencies - Volunteer Fire and Rescue Service - St John Ambulance Volunteers - Laverton Hospital

State Government Agencies - Department of Child Protection and Family Support

Local Industries - Major proximate mines - AngloGold Ashanti

- Gold Fields - Minara Resources - Lynas Corporation - Regis Resources Given the status of mining operations within the Shire, it is recommended that the

list of mine sites represented on this committee be reviewed at this time to enable it to remain viable, with non-operational mines delisted and new operations invited to join.

Laverton Aerodrome Emergency Committee (LAEC) Regulation 139.205(1) of the Civil Aviation Safety Regulations 1998 requires that the operator of a certified aerodrome must establish an aerodrome emergency committee. Council formally established an aerodrome emergency committee only fairly recently (Minute OC0323, 21 March 2013) and in accordance with legislative requirements, now needs to reappoint the committee. As provided in the Laverton Aerodrome Emergency Plan (item 1.5) the chairman shall be the aerodrome manager (Les Vidovich, Executive Manager Technical Services). The committee itself is comprised of:

Chairman – Aerodrome Manager (Les Vidovich) OIC Laverton Police Other persons being representatives from:

- Laverton Hospital - St John Ambulance Service Volunteers - Laverton Volunteer Fire & Rescue Service - Department of Child Protection and Family Support

Friends of Laverton Cemetery Advisory Group (FLCAG) Section 6 of the Cemeteries Act 1986 empowers and requires a local government in whom a cemetery is vested, to manage the cemetery in a safe clean and orderly condition. Accordingly, should the local government desire community involvement to achieve this goal, then it may establish one of the types of committees sanctioned by section 5.9 of the Local Government Act 1995.



Council did of course (21 May 2015, Minute OMC 150515), establish a committee of Councillors and other persons, which has been called the “Friends of Laverton Cemetery Advisory Group”. With the re-formation of committees in October 2015, the following persons were appointed to the FLCAG:

Cr R Prentice Cr G Walder Cr P Hill Georgina Ashwin Gordon Briggs Bert Davis Carol Hill Rob Wedge Rex Weldon

Not all of these members are still current residents of Laverton and it is recommended that this membership be reviewed at this time.

That the Council consider a further allocation of $300,000 in principle consideration to support the approval by the Premier of the State of Western Australia.

BACKGROUND

The Council in two separate resolutions decided as follows: Resolution OMC171123.14 of the Ordinary Meeting of Council held 23 November 2017

and Resolution OMC181125.17 of the Ordinary Meeting of Council held 13 November 2018






POLICY IMPLICATIONS



As the resolution is as an in principle approval, the full ramifications and the various funding models to cover the councils contribution will be addressed in fuller detail at either the half yearly budget review or sooner if the project can be expedited.

The key factor in all grant applications is the maintenance and management of the facility. There is no doubt that there will be an increase in staff and operational costs and, all being equal, an offset with a rise in the income streams to the facility. It would be appropriate to undertake an internal business case (to complement the external business proposal completed) for the entire facility and determine whether any other facilities could be added to enhance the overall complex.


The Council Community Strategic Plan states: Economic Objective - Prosperous local economy attracting businesses, opportunities and people

Community Feedback The Laverton community understands the important role the mining industry plays in the economic prosperity of the district. Members of the community recognise the district is well placed to grow and provide enhanced tourism services and infrastructure, providing it can leverage a range of opportunities and overcome key constraints.

Economic Opportunities Developing infrastructure which leverages off the attributes of the district for the economic prosperity of the community is key to the district’s future. With an increase in interest from tourists to visit and travel through the area, development of services and infrastructure to cater for this is necessary. Given the established mining community in the area and potential for growth, encouraging this sector to continue to expand their involvement is viewed as advantageous.

Desired Outcomes and Strategies The following desired outcomes and strategies have been identified as being required to achieve this objective. Outcome 2.1 Sustainable tourism 2.1.1 Develop tourism strategy 2.1.2 Continue to provide and enhance tourism services and infrastructure

COMMENT

The Hon Mark McGowan, Premier, and the Hon Alannah MacTiernan, MLC, released the following media statement in September this year:

New funding to upgrade Laverton Visitor Centre

Sunday, 8 September 2019

Laverton gears up for increased tourism with job-creating $2.6 million upgrades to the Great Beyond Visitor Centre

More travellers on the Outback Way expected to stop over in Laverton

McGowan Government continues to deliver for regional Western Australia

The McGowan Government will invest $1.3 million to upgrade the Great Beyond Visitor Centre at Laverton and capitalise on an expected boost in outback travellers.

The Shire of Laverton will contribute $1.3 million to the project which aims to provide significant economic and social benefits to the town.

The Visitor Centre has been operating at near capacity to service current visitor numbers and an expanded centre will greatly improve visitor experiences and customer service.

The Centre is expected to attract travellers on the Outback Way, a significant national road project to seal all sections of road from Perth to Cairns. Laverton is a critical service node on the Western Australian section of the Outback Way.

The refurbished and expanded Great Beyond Visitor Centre will feature:

- A new entry foyer, merchandising shop and café;

- An administrative office, public amenities and storage areas

- Disability access to interpretive displays

- Undercover alfresco dining space; and

- The Giles Oasis’ cultural garden and outdoor interactive displays.

Approximately 17 jobs will be created during construction on the project, as well as another eight ongoing jobs at the upgraded Centre.



The purpose of this report is to seek the Council’s in principle approval to match the State Government contribution of $1.3 million.

The Council has committed $1 million in two past resolutions so therefore a further contribution of $300,000 is required to match the State Government contribution of $1,300,000.

The Council in the past has made two applications to the Building Better Regions Fund (BRRF) and there is nothing to stop the Council from applying for other funds to capitalise on the contributions from the State Government and the Council’s commitment should further funds be required.

The CEO has expressed his desire to move with the project and as such, contact has been made with the architect to re-evaluate the plans and ensure that the Council is ready for a tender process as soon as the funds are secured and approved by the Council.

VOTING REQUIREMENTS

Absolute majority decision of Council required.



That the Council by an absolute majority: 1. Reaffirm its decisions of OMC171123.13 and OMC181125.17 (in principle

approval of $1,000,000) and allocating a further $300,000 making a total in principle approval of $1,300,000 to match the State Government’s contribution of $1,300,000.

2. Authorises the Shire President and Chief Executive Officer to execute the Financial Assistance Agreement with the State Government for the $1,300,000 of funding.

3. Authorises the Chief Executive Officer to advertise the Project for tender on finalisation of the Financial Assistance Agreement documentation.

SUBMISSION TO: Ordinary Meeting of Council, 24 October 2019 DISCLOSURE OF INTEREST: The author has no financial interest in this matter OWNER/APPLICANT: Not applicable AUTHOR: Peter Naylor, Chief Executive Officer PREVIOUS MEETING REFERENCE: Resolution OMC180919.10 of the Ordinary Meeting

of Council held on 19 September 2018 Resolution OMC181113.12 of the Ordinary Meeting of Council held on 13 November 2018


That Council authorises the Chief Executive Officer to continue to work with the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage for the Management Order (3131/4) for Reserve 34152 (Lot 661) to be amended to include “Parking” and providing Council with the “Power to Lease”.

ATTACHMENTS

Nil


Not applicable.

BACKGROUND

Council has, for approximately 12 months, been endeavouring to have the designated purpose of “Park” for Management Order 3131/4, Reserve 34152, amended to include “Parking” and the “Power to Lease”.

The matter was first addressed by Council on 19 September 2018:

1 c. All approved informal car parking areas shall be provided and maintained to a trafficable standard to the satisfaction of the Shire’s Chief Executive Officer.



And then again on 13 November 2018:

1 c. That the Council authorise the Chief Executive Officer to act on behalf of the Council to facilitate the change of use at Reserve 34152 (Laverton Lot 661 on Deposited Plan 36226) to include car parking in the current Management Order of Park.

2 That the Council authorise the Shire President and Chief Executive Officer to sign and affix the seal of the Council on any documents which may be required to be executed to change the use of Reserve 34152.

The following is a progress and sequence of events that have transpired thus far: Email dated 29 October from the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage (DPLH):

I refer to our telephone conversation of last week regarding Reserve 34152 and your request for an update on the Shire’s request to amend the purpose of Reserve 34152 to including Car Parking with power to lease. I wish to advise that the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage (DPLH) has reviewed your request and determined that Native Title rights and interests do not exist over the subject land and the matter has been administratively referred to the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (DMIRS) for approval under section 16(3) of the Mining Act 1973. In regards to the amendment of the purpose of the reserve from “Park” to “Park and Car Parking”, DPLH has no objections as Car Parking being included as a purpose as it can be considered an ancillary use to the current reserve purpose. Please note that power to lease will be subject to the section 18 of the Land Administration Act 1997 (LAA) and every proposed leasing arrangement will need to be forwarded to DPLH for approval. Each leasing arrangement will be assessed on a case-by-case scenario. DPLH will endeavour to keep the Shire of Laverton updated of further progress

Additional email from DLPH dated 01 November 2018:

“I refer to my previous email dated 29th October 2018 (shown below).

I’ve noted that the initial request was received as a simple message via the department’s website. In order for the Shire of Laverton’s request to progress past the referral stage, the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage will require a Council resolution or a letter under delegation (to which a copy of this year’s delegation allowing the author to make such requests be attached) for this request.

I look forward to receiving a copy of Council’s resolution or a letter under delegation in due course.”

A reserve is Crown land that has been set aside for a particular purpose in the public interest. It is a form of tenure of Crown land and is not an interest in land.

Part 4 of the Land Administration Act 1997 (LAA) provides the legislative basis for the creation, management, amendment and cancellation of reserves of Crown land.



The process can be as follows:

8 Change of Purpose of Reserve “The Minister for Lands has power under s.51 of the LAA to change the purpose of a reserve by Ministerial Order lodged and registered with the Registrar of Titles under the TLA. Management Orders usually state the purpose of the reserve within the document so where a reserve purpose is changed, any Management Order over the reserve is usually revoked before the Change of Reserve Purpose document is registered as the purpose stated in the Management Order may no longer be compatible with the new purpose of the reserve. A new Management Order stating the new purpose of the reserve may follow the Change of Reserve Purpose document. Where a Class A reserve purpose is being changed, the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage is responsible for tabling the proposal in parliament and advertising in a newspaper circulating throughout the State.

9 Amendment of Reserve Reserves may be amended by Ministerial Order under s.51 of the LAA and the amendment is effected by the lodgement and registration of an Amendment of Reserve document. The reserve amendment may entail a lot being included or excluded or may require a subdivision of lots already within the reserve. Where a reserve with Management Order is being amended, the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage may or may not lodge simultaneously, a revocation and new Management Order, depending on the extent of the amendment. Where a Class A reserve or a reserve for the purpose of conservation park or national park is being amended, the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage must follow the protocols set out in the LAA. This may include tabling the proposal in parliament and/or advertising in a newspaper circulating throughout the State.”

COMMENT

Further to all of the above background information Council has now received the following information via email dated 23 September 2019:

“I have been forwarded an email asking to provide you an update on the abovementioned job. I see that the original request for an update was directed to Ms Leanne Shaw of this office who was looking after this job. Unfortunately Leanne has recently passed away and a number of her jobs are yet to be reallocated to a resource. In reviewing this matter I have noted that the Council Resolution has not asked for Power to Lease (PTL). Should the Shire wish to have PTL, a Council resolution (or a letter under delegated authority – if this is to be used a copy of this year’s Council resolution giving you that authority is to be included) that ‘resolves to request the Minister for Lands to consider amending the Management order to include power to lease’ will be required. Once this is received I will be in a position to allocate this task to another resource to progress.”

As Council is aware the north western fringe of Reserve 34152 is adjacent to the newly reopened BP Roadhouse on Cox Street. It is proposed the area be leased to the Roadhouse proprietors to be utilised as a parking/rest area for motor vehicles and trucks.

SUBMISSION TO: Ordinary Meeting of Council, 24 October 2019 DISCLOSURE OF INTEREST: The author has no financial interest in this matter OWNER/APPLICANT: Not applicable AUTHOR: Peter Naylor, Chief Executive Officer PREVIOUS MEETING REFERENCE: Nil


That Council authorises the Chief Executive Officer to make application to the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage for the Management Order (12784/900V2) for Reserve 7943 (Loc 22) to be amended to include “Solar Power Generation”, and “Geoscentific and /or Geophysical” purposes.

ATTACHMENTS

Nil


Not applicable.

BACKGROUND

Management Order 12784/900V2 is currently in favour of the Shire of Laverton and for the purpose of “Aerial Landing Ground”.



The Order also provides Council with the Power to Lease the whole or portion of the area for any term not exceeding 21 years, subject to obtaining Ministerial approval.

The purpose of this matter is twofold in that: 1. Council staff have recently been approached by Geoscience Australia seeking

land tenure for the placement of a Global Navigation Satellite System Ground Station within Laverton and the Airfield has been identified as a possible / suitable site; and

2. The current Generator Powered Electricity System in Laverton is nearing the end of its contract period, over the next 18 months or so, and the Shire’s Chief Executive Officer has approached Horizon Power with the possibility of a Solar System being introduced which could also be catered for at the Airfield site.

The process can be as follows:

8 Change of Purpose of Reserve “The Minister for Lands has power under s.51 of the LAA to change the purpose of a reserve by Ministerial Order lodged and registered with the Registrar of Titles under the TLA.

Management Orders usually state the purpose of the reserve within the document so where a reserve purpose is changed, any Management Order over the reserve is usually revoked before the Change of Reserve Purpose document is registered as the purpose stated in the Management Order may no longer be compatible with the new purpose of the reserve. A new Management Order stating the new purpose of the reserve may follow the Change of Reserve Purpose document.

Where a Class A reserve purpose is being changed, the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage is responsible for tabling the proposal in parliament and advertising in a newspaper circulating throughout the State.

9 Amendment of Reserve Reserves may be amended by Ministerial Order under s.51 of the LAA and the amendment is effected by the lodgement and registration of an Amendment of Reserve document. The reserve amendment may entail a lot being included or excluded or may require a subdivision of lots already within the reserve. Where a reserve with Management Order is being amended, the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage may or may not lodge simultaneously, a revocation and new Management Order, depending on the extent of the amendment. Where a Class A reserve or a reserve for the purpose of conservation park or national park is being amended, the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage must follow the protocols set out in the LAA. This may include tabling the proposal in parliament and/or advertising in a newspaper circulating throughout the State.”

CONSULTATION

COMMENT

Amending the purpose of the Management Order to include the additional purposes as suggested will provide Council with the opportunity to lease a portion of the premises to establish key infrastructure locally.

Whilst the Solar Power proposal is reasonably self-explanatory, should it be the option chosen by Horizon Power, Geoscience Australia (GA) plan to install infrastructure for the purpose of collecting and communicating geoscientific and geospatial data. GA will construct, maintain and operate scientific equipment including a Global Navigation Satellite System Ground Station, including but not limited to installing, storing, operating, repairing, maintaining, altering and replacing the Ground Station consistent with the evolving nature of geospatial technology.

VOTING REQUIREMENTS






That Council: 1. Request the Minister for Lands to consider an amendment to Management Order

12784/900V2 for Reserve 7943 (Location 22) to also include the purposes of “Solar Power Generation”, and “Geoscientific and / or Geophysical”.

11.4.3 LITTLE ATHLETICS WA – COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP PROPOSAL (FILE REF: 0097)

SUBMISSION TO: Ordinary Meeting of Council, 24 October 2019 DISCLOSURE OF INTEREST: The author has no financial interest in this matter OWNER/APPLICANT: Little Athletics WA & Pakaanu Aboriginal

Corporation AUTHOR: Peter Naylor, Chief Executive Officer PREVIOUS MEETING REFERENCE: Nil


Council consider an opportunity to partner with Little Athletics WA to provide a Little Athletics Program in Laverton.

ATTACHMENTS

OMC191024-11.4.3.A Little Athletics WA – Community Partnership Proposal


Not applicable.

BACKGROUND

An opportunity has been presented to Council to partner with Little Athletics WA to expand the delivery of its State-Wide "Developing People, Developing Communities" initiatives program.

A very successful Little Athletic Program was conducted in 2018/19 with Laverton competing in the Goldfields Athletics program.



Council supported Laverton’s involvement in the program with provision of the Community Bus on a regular basis to transport the athletes to Kalgoorlie at no cost.

It is now envisaged to grow the program to provide opportunities for those individuals who wish to continue their endeavours. Where the program aims to reduce the barriers to participation and engagement, is by making Little Athletics an affordable community program available in Laverton.




POLICY IMPLICATIONS



The recommendation of this report will have implications for Council, however the actual costs to Council will need to be determined and are subject to future budget consideration.



CONSULTATION

Nil.

COMMENT

Driven predominantly by a lack of opportunities available to the young people and families in remote locations, Little Athletics delivers positive engagement programs using the sport of athletics as the mechanism to support communities in meeting important social outcomes such as increased physical activity opportunities, meaningful engagement in community activities, reduction in antisocial behaviour, educational/training requirements and leadership development of parents, volunteers and community members and an increase in health and wellbeing and community cohesion. There is a key focus on target population groups including but not limited to Aboriginal Communities, which are provided as a broad example.



To expand and build on such a program, Little Athletics WA are offering Laverton a "Community Partnership Proposal" as a guiding document (refer Attachment OMC191024-11.4.3.A) following discussions with other key stakeholders who are able to consider supporting such a program for Laverton.

It has been identified that the initial key to starting a program is for the local group to seek the support from the Shire of Laverton to grow the program through the provision of required standard facilities which include use of the Community Oval (i.e. development of an athletics race track and long jump pit which are suitable for competition), and space to store equipment (Sea Container), therefore a request has been presented for Council consideration to support a program and to gain a workable plan to set up suitable facilities as required.

Marty Seelander, CEO of the Pakaanu Aboriginal Corporation, is coordinating the initial process and is prepared to work with the Shire of Laverton and Little Athletics WA in developing a plan to cater for the above.

It will also be necessary to gain support from other key stakeholders. The Little Athletics season commences in Kalgoorlie on Friday 18 October 2019. It is hoped that from the program proposed to be conducted in Laverton, youth will have the capacity to be selected to compete at a regional level, which will be called the elite program.

This is a fantastic opportunity for the youth of Laverton and one which Council could support with minimal up-front costs involved.

Feb 2019 The budget amendments have not been entered into synergy correctly. The amended deficit per the amended budget is ($270,858) and per the Financial Activity Statement is ($379,458). The difference of ($108,600) is due to the following:-

• Budgeted non-operating grants in Synergy are overstated by $375,000. Account 3120410 AERO – Non -operating grant of $375,000 has been entered in Synergy but is not part of the budget amendments.

Trust Bonds held and other funds held in Trust

June 2019 Monies should only be held in Trust if they are required to be in Trust by the LGA or any other law. As per the Office of the Auditor General’s recent position paper, bonds should not be held in Trust but should be transferred to the Municipal Fund and reflected as cash and liability.

We recommend the trust funds be reviewed and transfers be made to clear those monies which have been identified as non-trust funds.

Allocations Under/overallocation

October 2017

The Plant Operation costs are over allocated by $346,741, Public Works Overheads are under allocated by $155,247. Administration costs over allocated by $157,073.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES KEY INFORMATIONAll 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.

BORROWINGS

Unspent Borrowings

The Shire has no unspent debenture funds as at 30th June 2018, nor is it expected to have unspent funds as at 30th June 2019.

KEY INFORMATIONAll 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.

Accumulated surplus

Journals June 2019 During the month of June 2019, journals were raised to transfer funds between municipal bank and reserve bank. These journals impacted accumulated surplus in error by $321,761. The impact of the journal has been reversed in these statements but is still required to be entered into the system.

We recommend the journal be reversed appropriately in the system to remove its impact on accumulated surplus.

KEY INFORMATIONProvisionsProvisions are recognised when the Shire has a present legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.

Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period.

Employee benefitsShort-term employee benefits Provision is made for the Shire’s obligations for short-term employee benefits. Short-term employee benefits are benefits (other than termination benefits) that are expected to be settled wholly before 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service, including wages, salaries and sick leave. Short-term employee benefits are measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid when the obligation is settled.

The Shire’s obligations for short-term employee benefits such as wages, salaries and sick leave are recognised as a part of current trade and other payables in the calculation of net current assets.

Other long-term employee benefitsThe Shire’s obligations for employees’ annual leave and long service leave entitlements are recognised as provisions in the statement of financial position.

Long-term employee benefits are measured at the present value of the expected future payments to be made to employees. Expected future payments incorporate anticipated future wage and salary levels, durations of service and employee departures and are discounted at rates determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have maturity dates that approximate the terms of the obligations. Any remeasurements for changes in assumptions of obligations for other long-term employee benefits are recognised in profit or loss in the periods in which the changes occur. The Shire’s obligations for long-term employee benefits are presented as non-current provisions in its statement of financial position, except where the Shire does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period, in which case the obligations are presented as current provisions.

RATE REVENUEKEY INFORMATIONPrepaid rates are, until the taxable event for the rates has occurred, refundable at the request of the ratepayer. Rates received in advance give rise to a financial liability. On 1 July 2019 the prepaid rates were recognised as a financial asset and a related amount was recognised as a financial liability and no income was recognised. When the taxable event occurs the financial liability is extinguished and income recognised for the prepaid rates that have not been refunded.

KEY INFORMATIONProvisionsProvisions are recognised when the Shire has a present legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.

Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period.

Employee benefitsShort-term employee benefits Provision is made for the Shire’s obligations for short-term employee benefits. Short-term employee benefits are benefits (other than termination benefits) that are expected to be settled wholly before 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service, including wages, salaries and sick leave. Short-term employee benefits are measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid when the obligation is settled.

The Shire’s obligations for short-term employee benefits such as wages, salaries and sick leave are recognised as a part of current trade and other payables in the calculation of net current assets.

Other long-term employee benefitsThe Shire’s obligations for employees’ annual leave and long service leave entitlements are recognised as provisions in the statement of financial position.

Long-term employee benefits are measured at the present value of the expected future payments to be made to employees. Expected future payments incorporate anticipated future wage and salary levels, durations of service and employee departures and are discounted at rates determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have maturity dates that approximate the terms of the obligations. Any remeasurements for changes in assumptions of obligations for other long-term employee benefits are recognised in profit or loss in the periods in which the changes occur. The Shire’s obligations for long-term employee benefits are presented as non-current provisions in its statement of financial position, except where the Shire does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period, in which case the obligations are presented as current provisions.

Contract liabilitiesAn entity’s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the entity has received consideration (or the amount is due) from the customer. Grants to acquire or construct recognisable non-financial assets to be controlled by the Shire are recognised as a liability until such time as the Shire satisfies its obligations under the agreement.

1.0 Introduction Local governments have unique knowledge of and close connections with their communities. Interaction between ratepayers and council staff occur at many levels and in a variety of ways and settings, which enable the actions of local governments to be closely guided by their communities.

This is important as the actions of local governments have a direct impact on those who live within their boundaries.

The 2019-2024 Shire of Laverton Disability Access and Inclusion Plan (DAIP or the Plan) has been created as a result of engagement with real people who are at risk of exclusion in community life. A series of conversations with Shire of Laverton staff, contractors, disability service providers, community organisations, people with disabilities and their families have been essential in the development of this DAIP.

This DAIP follows on from the Shire of Laverton’s 2013-2019 plan by incorporating lessons learnt and identifying recurring themes raised by the community to make the Plan relevant, useful and achievable.

The DAIP aims to improve access for all. This includes not just people with a permanent disability, but also parents with young children and prams, the elderly and people from cultural and linguistically diverse backgrounds as well as those community members who have a temporary impairment.

2.0 Legislation and strategic influences The Disability Services Act 1993 (WA) and its 2004 amendments, require that all State and local government authorities implement a DAIP.

The purpose is for the relevant authority to ensure that people with disability have equal access to its facilities and services. Other legislation relevant to access and inclusion includes:

Equal Opportunity Act 1984 (WA). Commonwealth Disability Discrimination Act – Access to Premises/Buildings

2011 (DDA). United Nations Convention on the Rights of People with Disabilities

(UNCRPD).

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) aims to support a better life for Australians with a significant and permanent disability, their families and carers. This scheme is currently being implemented across Australia and will assist people with disability.


Shire of Laverton DAIP 2019 to 2024

3.0 What is a disability? A disability is any continuing condition that restricts everyday activities.

The Disability Services Act 1993 (WA) defines disability as something which: Is attributable to an intellectual, psychiatric, cognitive, neurological, sensory

or physical impairment or a combination of those impairments. Is permanent or likely to be permanent. May or may not be of a chronic or episodic nature. Results in substantially reduced capacity of the person for communication,

social interaction, learning or mobility and a need for continuing support services.

Hidden versus visible disability

A disability and the impact of it cannot always be easily identified. An individual in a wheelchair trying to navigate an uneven footpath is different to a person with a cognitive impairment due to dementia who may be unable to communicate all their needs.

Awareness and education are vital to prevent ignorance of the range of disabilities.

Disability data and trends

The 2015 Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) Survey of Disability, Ageing and Carers found the following:

Almost one in five Australians reported living with disability (18.3% or 4.3 million people).

The majority (78.5%) of people with disability reported a physical condition, such as back problems, as their main long-term health condition. The other 21.5% reported mental and behavioural disorders.

More than half of those with disability aged 15 to 64 years participated in the labour force (53.4%), which is considerably fewer than those without disability (83.2%).

The number of West Australians with disability increases with age.

According to 2016 ABS data, 51% of West Australians over 60 years of age have a disability compared to the average across all ages of approximately 18%. Between 2006 and 2026 the number of people with disability in Western Australia is expected to increase by more than 210,000, due mainly to the ageing population. While age itself is not a disability, the incidence of disability increases.

Carers

A vital part of our community is the role of carers.



Page 3

A carer is defined as a person who provides any informal assistance, in terms of help or supervision, to older people (aged 65 years and over) and those with disability. In 2015, almost 2.7 million Australians were carers with the average age of carers being 55 years and approximately one third of primary care givers living with a disability themselves.

An effective DAIP aims not only to support those with disability but also the many people who care for them.

4.0 Information about the Shire of Laverton Based on the population estimate and these findings, it is estimated that there may be approximately 159 people with disability living within the Shire Boundaries.

Although the Shire’s population is considered quite small, a large number of tourists and visitors travelling on the Great Central Road have access to the town’s facilities and services. It is therefore essential that visitors are also considered when making provisions for people with disability.

5.0 Facilities and services provided by the Shire of Laverton

The Shire of Laverton provides the standard functions of a local government including:

Asset management. e.g. footpaths, roads, buildings, playgrounds, reserves and other open space

Ranger Parking Sustainability Events Community Development Waste Environmental Health Building and planning approvals Tourism CRC Connections

Strategies to inform agents and contractors

The Disability Services Act 1993 (WA) requires agents and contractors of public authorities to conduct their business in a manner that is consistent with the contracting public authority’s DAIP, in this instance with the Council.



Page 4

The intent of the Act is to increase awareness so that consideration is given to the needs of people with disability when providing a service to the public. DAIP requirements relating to agents and contractors consist of the following:

Applies only to new contract variations. Applies only to services provided to the public. Does not apply to services provided directly to the public authority itself.

Strategies that the Shire of Laverton utilises include: Reference to the Council’s DAIP is included in contract documents. Contractors and agents are required to complete progress reports to the

Council that demonstrate awareness of the DAIP.

Requirements - Disability Access and Inclusion Plan (DAIP)

The Western Australia Disability Services Act, 1993 (amended 2004), requires all Local Governments to develop and implement a Disability Access and Inclusion Plan (DAIP) to ensure that people with disability have equal access to its facilities and services.

Other legislation underpinning access and inclusion includes the Western Australia Equal Opportunity Act (1984) and the Commonwealth Disability Discrimination Act 1992 (DDA), both of which make discrimination on the basis of a person’s disability unlawful.

Planning to provide good access for people with disability will also provide benefits to other members of the community who may be disadvantaged in terms of access, such as parent/carers with prams, seniors, people who have a temporary disability, small children and people from cultural and linguistically diverse backgrounds.

To comply with the Disability Services Act a local government is required to: Review its plan at a maximum of every five years. The amended or new plan

is to be lodged with the Department of Communities by 31 July in any given year.

Develop a DAIP which: - Furthers the principles and objectives of the Act. - Meets the standards in Schedule 2 of the Disability Services Regulations

2004. Take all practicable measures to ensure the plan is implemented by the local

government, its officers, employees and relevant agents and contractors. Undertake public consultation, as specified in the regulations, when

preparing, reviewing or amending its plan. Lodge review reports, amended plans or new plans with the Department of

Communities.



Page 5

Report to the Commission by 30 June each year about: - Progress made by the local government in achieving the desired

outcomes in Schedule 3 of the Regulations. - Progress made by any agents and contractors of the local government in

achieving the desired outcomes in Schedule 3 of the Regulations. - The strategies used by the local government to inform its agents and

contractors about its plan. Report in its Annual Report about the implementation of its plan.

The actions in the implementation plan outlined in this DAIP for 2019-2024 are intended to enhance and improve disability access and inclusion in the Shire district in order to encompass the diverse needs and requirements of people with disability that live and visit the Laverton area.

6.0 Access and Inclusion Policy Statement The Shire of Laverton is committed to ensuring that the community is accessible for, and inclusive, of people with disability, their families and carers.

The Shire of Laverton interprets an accessible and inclusive community as one in which all Council functions, facilities and services (both in-house and contracted) are open, available and accessible to people with disability, providing them with the same opportunities, rights and responsibilities as other people in the community.

The Shire of Laverton: Recognises that people with disability are valued members of the community

who make a variety of contributions to local social, economic and cultural life. Believes that a community that recognises its diversity and supports the

participation and inclusion of all of its members makes for a richer community life.

Believes that people with disability, their families and carers should be supported to remain in the community.

Is committed to consulting with people with disability, their families and carers and disability organisations in addressing barriers to access and inclusion.

Will ensure its agents and contractors work towards the desired outcomes in the DAIP by providing a Special Condition of Contract to agents and contractors to facilitate reporting.

Is committed to supporting local community groups and businesses to provide access and inclusion of people with disability, and

Is committed to achieving the seven desired outcomes of its DAIP.



Page 6

The desired outcomes are: 1. People with disability have the same opportunities as other people to access

the services of, and any events organised by, the relevant public authority. 2. People with disability have the same opportunities as other people to access

the buildings and other facilities of the relevant public authority. 3. People with disability receive information from the relevant public authority in

a format that will enable them to access the information as readily as other people are able to access it.

4. People with disability receive the same level and quality of service from the staff of the relevant public authority.

5. People with disability have the same opportunities as other people to make complaints to the relevant public authority.

6. People with disability have the same opportunities as other people to participate in any public consultation by the relevant public authority.

7. People with disability have the same opportunities as other people to obtain and maintain employment.

7.0 Responsibility for the planning process The Chief Executive Officer has overall responsibility to oversee the development, implementation, review and evaluation of the DAIP.

The final plan is endorsed by Council and it is the responsibility of all officers to implement the relevant actions.

Progress reports have been regularly completed and sent to the Department of Communities as part of the Shire’s policy and compliance work.

8.0 Community consultation process The Disability Services Act Regulations (2004) set out the minimum consultation requirements for public authorities in relation to Disability Access and Inclusion Plans (DAIPs).

Local Governments must call for submissions (either general or specific) by notice in a newspaper circulating in the Local Government area or on any website maintained by or on behalf of the Local Government. Other mechanisms may also be used.

The following consultation methods were used: Desktop review of previous plan 2013 – 2019. A four week public consultation period was advertised for local businesses,

government departments/agencies and the wider community to provide feedback and suggestions in relation to the draft DAIP.



Page 7

‘Easy to Read’ paper survey produced and distributed through the Shire Administration Office, the Community Resource Centre (CRC), Great Beyond Visitor Centre, and Cashless Debit Card (CDC) office.

DAIP consultation events promoted in the Shire newsletter - The Sturt Pea, on the Shire website, Facebook pages and through the Laverton Stakeholder Group meeting.

Local Northern Goldfields newspaper produced an article on the Shire’s DAIP consultation events.

Consultation sessions took place in the CRC, Council Chambers, CDC office, at the Hospital, 1:1 sessions, at the Crisis Centre and at the Department of Communities office.

Draft plan produced based upon the feedback received along with previous review outcomes.

Draft Plan checked by the Department of Communities for compliance.

9.0 Findings of the consultation The review and consultation found that much had been done to achieve positive progress since the last DAIP. However, it also identified a variety of remaining barriers to access and inclusion, to be addressed in the new DAIP Action Plan.

Thirty one people responded to the survey; made up of people with disability, carers, service providers, tourists, individuals and families.

As a result of the consultation, a number of key themes emerged including: Making information such as the Shire newsletter, The Sturt Pea, more

accessible. Access improvements to footpaths. Increasing the number of dropped kerbs and access ramps. Improving the provision of accessible parking. Staff awareness and training.

All comments and suggestions from the community will be considered for implementation as part of the ongoing DAIP work, subject to budget constraints.

10.0 Monitoring, Evaluation and Review The Community Development Manager will co-ordinate the monitoring of progress towards achieving the stated outcomes in the DAIP.

The Shire of Laverton will report on the implementation of its DAIP through its Annual Report to Council, and the prescribed progress report template to the Department of Communities by 4 July each year.



Page 8

Agents and contractors will follow the processes within the DAIP’s Agents and Contractors Guide (Department of Communities). Agents and contractors will report annually on progress towards the desired outcomes of the DAIP through the suggested reporting templates.

A Disability Advisory Committee will be established as part of the DAIP Action Plan that will: - Oversee and guide the implementation, monitoring and review of the Shire

of Laverton’s Disability Action Plan. - Advise Council on how the provision of Council services and facilities can

best meet the needs of people with disability, their families and carers. - Advise Council on policies, programs and issues that impact on people

with disability, families and carers, including barriers to accessing services and facilities.

- Provide a mechanism by which people can provide feedback. Access issues will be a standing item on the agenda of the Laverton

Stakeholder Group.

11.0 Achievements during the 2013/2019 DAIP

Outcome 1

People with disability have the same opportunities as other people to access the services of, and any events organised by, the Shire of Laverton.

The main street in Laverton underwent a major upgrade; works completed mainly centred on improving access by installing dropped kerbs and ramps to business centres such as the Community Resource Centre and Supermarket.

New footpaths, pram/disability scooter ramps have been installed, in the town centre, improving access.

Installation of a dual use footpath with pram ramps flush with the bitumen, has been completed in one part of the town area, so that it now connects as an accessible loop.

Improved and increased numbers of outdoor seating with shade have been installed in the town centre.

Solar lighting has been installed in a previously unlit footpath that connects a residential area to the main town.



Page 9

Outcome 2

People with disability have the same opportunities as other people to access the buildings and other facilities of the Shire of Laverton.

The Laverton Community Hub which incorporates the Aquatic Centre and Town Hall have been completed providing accessible social and recreational facilities:

The new Swimming Pool has been constructed and is ready for the new 2019 season.

The pool is fully compliant with access and building requirements. This includes, accessible toilets, changing rooms, a sloped entrance into the new pool, and appropriate handrails. There is new ramped access to the pool building.

Outcome 3

People with disability receive information from the Shire of Laverton in a format that will enable them to access the information as readily as other people are able to access it.

The Shire has recently updated and implemented a new website and is in the process of updating pages and adding information relating to services and events.

The Shire of Laverton is committed to providing accessible information to as many users as possible and has pursued this objective in designing this website. This website has been developed to meet W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 Level AA. These guidelines are available at http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG/.

A range of 'Easy to Read' and plain English information pamphlets, booklets, brochure and consultation documents have been produced.

These documents provide improved access through clear language, accessible format and style compliance and some incorporate visual images to support some access needs.

Examples include information posters and booklets for the Cashless Debit Card, and DAIP consultation.

An ongoing new project undertaken by the children and supported by the Youth Services Team and Community Interpreters, has been the production of informative booklets, (for example 'Our Bush Story'), which share the local area, culture and language.

Focusing on simple literacy, children took photos and learnt how to write, edit and create their 'yarns' using local Wongatha words. (Booklets are available in the Shire's Great Beyond Visitor Centre as a tourism resource and fundraising activity for the Youth Centre).

Outcome 4

People with disability receive the same level and quality of service from the staff of the Shire of Laverton. This matter has not been addressed specifically for people with a disability, however, Council staff are aware of requirements.

Outcome 5

People with disability have the same opportunities as other people to make complaints to the Shire of Laverton. The Shire website includes the opportunity to make enquiries/provide feedback/ request action or make complaints.

Outcome 6

People with disability have the same opportunities as other people to participate in any public consultation by the Shire of Laverton. Consultation events were undertaken that recognised and catered for differing access needs of the community.

The DAIP and Cashless Debit Card engagement sessions were held in a variety of different venues, locations and times. These included Shire buildings such as the Community Resource Centre, as well as at the Hospital and in meetings with small focus groups, and discrete meetings with individuals and families at their choice of venue.

A range of 'Easy to Read' and plain English information pamphlets, booklets, brochure and consultation documents have been produced. These documents provide improved access through clear language, accessible format and style compliance, and some incorporate visual images to support some access needs.

Examples include information posters and booklets for the Cashless Debit Card (CDC), and DAIP consultation.

Translators were made available for the CDC consultations.

Outcome 7

People with disability have the same opportunities as other people to obtain and maintain employment

The Council has built an accessible house for staff accommodation that can be easily converted to meet the access needs of staff with a disability.

12.0 Promotion of the new DAIP The DAIP will be promoted to staff, contractors and the wider community on the Council’s website, through advertisements in the local newsletter (The Sturt Pea), social media and by direct communication with individuals and appropriate networks.
