A
B
You
Mr
chair
this
month.
We
have
four
applications
under
the
Community
sponsorship
program.
The
first
is
from
the
rosary
Club
of
benella
they're,
seeking
500
to
help
accommodate
30
students
at
the
Port
C
Camp.
As
you
know,
they've
been
doing
this
for
many
years
and
it's
a
wonderful
opportunity
for
those
young
people
and
to
experience
a
holiday
by
the
Sea.
B
The
second
application
is
from
the
stroke
Association
of
Victoria
they're,
also
seeking
500,
because
they
believe
that
well
they've
actually
done
a
little
bit
of
research
and
found
that
there
isn't
any
support
groups
for
stroke.
Survivors
in
the
Manila
region
and
they've
had
quite
a
lot
of
requests.
B
So
they've
currently
got
a
couple
of
referrals
and
six
to
eight
pending
so
they're,
seeking
some
funding
to
help
cover
the
cost
of
room,
hiring
to
have
some
caterings
so
again
seeking
500
dollars
and
the
third
application
is
from
the
Lima
school
Community
Center
committee
they're
also
seeking
500
to
hold
a
Christmas
barbecue
event
for
the
local
community
and,
as
we
know,
many
of
our
rural
communities
are
really
Keen
to
get
their
communities
back
out,
particularly
after
covert
the
funds
would
be
used
to
obviously
for
the
catering
and
also
to
have
a
Santa
gift
for
each
of
the
children
with
rentals.
B
B
You
know
to
have
a
social
event,
and
so
I
would
draw
you
to
the
recommendation
on
page
seven
and
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
Thank.
A
You
Jane
just
before
I
suggest
any
pull
it
to
the
questions.
Mr
minor
councilors
have
their
minds
in
front
of
them
to
before
you
ask
a
question
or
speak.
If
you
just
make
sure
it's
on
green,
are
there
any
questions
for
Jane
questions?
The
recommendation
is
on
the
bottom
of
page.
Seven
I
could
have
someone
move
that
counselor
Hearn
councilor
O'brien,
who
suspect
councilor
Hearn.
D
E
D
I'm
very
happy
to
support
this
recommendation.
Thank.
E
Thank
you,
Mr
chair.
Yes,
once
again,
just
people,
knowing
that
this
funding
is
available
in
the
community
is
really
great,
I
think
as
from
such
varied
groups
within
the
community,
so
we
are
getting
a
chance
to
reach
out.
E
We've
got
a
pretty
long
range,
I
think
with
the
funding
available
to
our
different
Community
groups.
So,
yes,
really
happy
to
approve
this
yeah.
A
A
F
Mr,
chair
I'll
just
start
this
report
with
briefly
with
the
customer
relations
department,
the
customer
and
phone
contacts
have
decreased
and
the
phone
contacts
have
decreased
over
this
quarter
compared
to
last
year,
also
down
to
the
customer
requests
they've
increased
by
98,
which
is
a
huge
increase,
but
we're
recording
the
caddy
bags
through
that
system
now.
So
this
sort
of
adds
to
the
increase
in
customer
requests
and
strangely
the
land
information
certificates
have
decreased
compared
to
last
quarter
by
19.
F
A
function
was
held
at
the
lakeside
Center,
where
the
volunteers
were
thanked
for
their
many
years
of
service
and
presented
with
a
small
gift
and
certificate.
The
function
was
attended
by
some
staff
from
the
Aged
and
disability
department,
and
also
Mayors
and
councilors
mayor
and
counselors.
F
Over
to
page
13.
I
need
to
apologize
for
this
table.
Can
you
please
disregard
it,
as
the
figures
are
not
correct?
Unfortunately,
there
was
a
glitch
in
the
program
that
we
get.
These
figures
from,
so
I
will
provide
the
correct
table
in
the
briefing
paper
on
Friday,
but
I
can
give
you
some
information
on
the
movement
of
volunteers
so
of
the
Aged
and
disability
volunteers
that
have
ceased.
We
have
had
two
that
are
in
the
ltp
program.
F
So
over
to
page
14,
the
library
staff
have
been
doing
some
great
activities,
especially
during
book
week.
The
they
put
together
a
book
of
many
stories
and
drawings
that
were
developed
by
the
junior
creative
writing
group,
and
each
of
these
children
had
to
do
a
special
story
for
this
book
as
well,
and
it's
quite
a
lovely
book
I'm
sure
their
parents
will
treasure
it
in
years
to
come.
I
think
the
children
were
more
happy
about
the
pizza
party.
F
F
G
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
Janine,
a
good
report
and
for
a
good
work.
Okay
reported
the
human
resources
table
from
stage
10
the
workplace
incidents.
We
have
explained
that
there's
a
work,
how
we
claim
in
September
quarter
of
September
September
40.
Yes,
and
could
you
please
explain
a
that
bit
in
the
nature
of
that
and
how
the
person
involved
being
looked
after
was.
G
F
Yes,
through
Mr
Chin,
there
was
one
workcover
claim.
It
was
one
of
our
outdoor
workers
and
the
staff
member
is
fully
recovered.
A
A
H
I
just
like
to
say
again
how
sad
it
was
to
see
the
last
of
the
volunteers
and
the
age
depart.
They
were
I
think
they
all
felt
a
little
bit
lost
what
to
do
with
themselves,
but
I
I
think
a
lot
of
them
have
moved
on
into
other
areas
and
they
are
gradually
moving
on
to
to
volunteering
in
some
other
areas.
So
that
is
it's
great,
because
it's
so
hard
to
get
a
volunteer.
You
sure
don't
want
to
lose
them.
Yeah
and
the
the
book
die
at
the
library.
H
I
attended
that,
and
that
was
fantastic
with
all
the
children
made
a
their
own
book
and
their
own
story,
and
they
were
very,
very
proud
and,
as
Janine
said,
I
think
the
pizza
was
probably
the
main
attraction
for
the
day
and
the
staff
once
again
were
all
dressed
up
and
wonderful,
so
yeah,
congratulations.
It
was
great.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
A
D
Thank
you,
the
finance
department
in
the
last
well,
the
first
quarter
of
this
year.
I
was
doing
focusing
on
last
year's
report,
pretty
much
shown
for
the
whole
three
months
and
we
have
undertaken
a
number
of
annual
reports,
performance
reports,
essential
Service,
Commission
returns
and
then
we've
loaded
up
the
new
budget
and
reviewed
the
outcomes
of
the
first
three
months
so
busy
time
again.
The
impact
of
the
Home
and
Community
Care,
not
no
longer
being
provided,
will
impact
on
our
debt
of
levels
as
well.
D
D
The
highlight
of
our
35th
September
report
is
on
page
18,
with
the
total
of
the
cash
that
we
have
invested,
and
that
again
is
because
we
received
75
of
our
grants
for
but
current
year
early,
so
we've
we've
we're
cached
up
at
the
moment,
but
we're
not
going
to
receive
any
more
cash
for
the
next
few
months.
So
we'll
run
with
that,
we
are
investing
wherever
we
can
in
packages
that
are
as
attractive
as
we
can
pick
up
and
the
market
has
picked
up
on
interest
rates.
D
So
I'm,
looking
at
a
significant
increase
in
you,
know,
interest
rates,
but
then
our
loans
go
up.
So
there's
a
double-sided
impact
on
that,
but
overall,
happy
report
that
there's
about
19
people
who
have
objected
to
their
valuation
and
set
the
30th
of
September
for
their
property
valuations
for
the
year
and
they
will
be
sorted
through
with
the
values
over
the
next
60
days
or
so.
D
But
I
did
wonder
if
that
would
have
been
higher,
given
that
the
market
had
moved
so
much
and
then
there
was
an
increasing
rate,
so
people
are
a
little
bit
uncertain
about
their
valuations,
but
as
it
goes
every
year,
we'll
see
what
comes
out
in
the
the
new
valuations
for
the
next
year.
So
it's
a
it's
a
bit
of
an
interesting
time
with
valuations
for
property
and
land
I'm
happy
to
take
any
questions.
Thank.
I
Yes,
any
thanks
to
the
report.
It's
a
big
highlight
on
page
18,
really
isn't
it.
That
is
a
substantial
increase
in
the
interest
rates
and
that
3.2
that
that's
the
last
one
that
we
got.
D
Was
it
and
we're
looking
around
the
four
Mark
now,
so
we
just
need
to
be
able
to
plan
our
spends.
The
challenging
you.
A
G
It's
a
good
good
report
and
good
to
see
money
in
the
bank
I'm
asking
about
this
12
million
in
the
operating
account.
Do
you
have
leeway
to
leave
some
in
a
more
interesting
learning
account.
D
At
the
30th
of
September,
that's
when
the
rates
rolling,
which
it
is
an
app
on
our
cash.
So
we
will
invest
that
based
on
we,
we
tend
to
see
how
much
we
have
and
then
have
a
review
of
our
Capital
program,
and
we
were
awaiting
some
advice
on
our
reimbursement,
for
some
storm
have
been
funding
that
we
had
spent
in
the
prior
year
that
we're
still
looking
for
some
cash
to
assist
us
to
pay.
D
So
we're
actually
really
heavily
looking
at
our
cash
at
the
moment
and
you'll
probably
see
by
December
that
a
fair
amount
of
that's
gone
out
as
well,
but
we're
trying
to
bundle
and
we're
finding
that
the
offers
are
better
if
they
go
over
120
days
rather
than
121
days
actually
rather
than
120
days.
So
we
we're
just
really
trying
to
hone
in
on
that
and
I
do
agree,
that's
a
big
figure
at
the
end
of
a
quarter,
but
there's
a
reason
for
it.
Thank
you.
A
Any
other
questions
from
Council
Kathy
I
just
have
one
with
regards
to
the
formal
valuation
objections
and
those
properties
being
reevaluated.
Is
that
at
the
cost
of
the
homeowner
to
is
there
a
cost
involved
for
them
to
have
someone
come
out
and
reevaluate
I.
D
Know
they
can
query
the
evaluation
and
it
goes
through
a
formal
process,
and
that
is
all
handled
by
the
burners.
The
cost
doesn't
contribute
down
to
us
anymore.
It
did
used
to
have
a
impact,
but
these
days
no
there's
no
impact
to
council,
but
you
will
see
that
I,
always
at
the
end
of
a
quarter.
D
The
first
30th
of
September
quarter
we'll
say
that
we
may
have
19
valuations
and
if
we've
picked
up
any
supplementary
valuations,
they
may
well
go
down
as
well,
because
of
some
of
the
objections
to
the
current
valuations
and
the
good
part
about
it
is
if
anyone
has
a
supplementary
valuation,
if
you
split
a
block
or
purchased
a
house
and
put
improvements
on
it
and
you
have
a
new
valuation,
come
out.
You've
got
that
60
days
again,
so
it's
not
just
once
a
year
if
you've
altered
the
valuation
due
to
supplementary
valuation.
Yep.
Thank
you.
Kathy.
A
A
B
You
Mr
chair
just
a
couple
of
highlights
sent
from
the
community
yet
Department
activity
report.
The
first
is
that
we
did
appoint
a
new
Community
Development
officer
in
August
and
she's,
been
very
busy
at
working
on
Town,
the
township
planning
project,
prioritizing
swamp
or
badagini
and
Luna,
and
of
course
she
has
made
contact
with
them.
Rural
communities,
after
floods,
too
so
she's
been
very
busy.
We
did
distribute
the
Kazi
directories.
B
The
community
activation
and
social
isolation
directories
did
go
to
all
households
and
we've
had
some
good
feedback
and
some
perhaps
not
so
good
feedback
where
some
people
in
the
community
didn't
receive
it.
But
we
are
trying
to
follow
up
with
our
Distributors
to
see
why
that
happened.
But
you
know
those
who
did
get
it
said
it
was
very
helpful,
so
particularly
older
people,
they
like
the
hard
copy
directory.
So
that's
been
good.
B
I
think
it's
really
important
to
highlight
that
Council,
vanilla
rule
city
has
been
recognized
as
a
mental
health.
First
aid
Australia
Champion
Community,
which
is
very
significant.
The
live
for
Life
program
has
been
very
successful
and
over
the
five
years
that
we've
been
doing
it,
we've
trained
over
a
thousand
young
people
and
165
adults,
so
that
they're
able
to
recognize
and
respond
to
the
signs
of
mental
health
problems
in
young
people.
B
So
that's
really
quite
significant
and
you
can
see
that
there's
some
a
strong
partnership,
that's
involved
in
seeing
that
something
else
I
did
want
to
highlight
before
going
on,
is
the
Aboriginal
and
Torres
Strait
Islander
Advisory
Group
has
met
with
the
Historical
Society
in
September
and
they're,
actually
working
together
to
look
on
a
history
of
benalla
before
and
after
colonization.
So
that's
been
quite
a
significant
piece
of
work
and
it's
lovely
to
see
the
organizations
working
together.
B
And
it's
also
pleasing
by
the
photos
on
page
25
that
we're
maintaining
strong
numbers
in
the
ltp
program
with
six
young
people
having
got
their
license
over
a
quarter
just
going
on
to
maternal
and
child
health.
21
verses
were
recorded
for
the
quarter
and
I.
Remember
last
time,
councilor
Fairview
actually
mentioned
because
the
last
time
it
was
27,
the
numbers
are
low
and
they
were
lower
than
the
quarter
before,
because
January
to
March
it
was
32.
Then
it
was
27
and
now
it's
21.
So
numbers
are.
B
We
did
also
over
the
court
apartment
with
tomorrow
today
for
the
benella
Hall
of
community
early
years,
Forum
that
was
held
towards
the
end
of
August,
where
we
workshopped
you
know
Services
currently
available
and
how
the
community
can
better
and
care
for
children
who
are
developmentally
vulnerable.
B
That
was
well
attended
and
just
going
over
onto
the
next
page,
we
did
also
through
integrated
family
services,
offer
a
second
pediatric
First
Aid
course
for
parents
again,
that
was
very
well
received
and
Family
Services
have
also
just
produced
a
couple
of
really
good
booklets
for
families,
a
cooking
booklet
and
also
an
activity
booklet
which
we're
able
to
give
to
our
clients
and
also
to
others
in
the
community,
as
has
been
mentioned
by
a
few
others,
of
course,
with
the
loss
of
aged
and
Disability
Services,
Tracy
Hooper
finished
with
us
after
25
years.
B
At
the
end
of
the
quarter,
that
was
you
know,
she's
been
a
very
significant
team
member
and
it
was
very
sad
to
see
her
going,
but
she's
enjoying
her
time
not
working.
At
the
moment.
B
We
have
maintained
as
you're
aware
the
regional
assessment
service,
but
they
are
facing
some
enormous
challenges,
with
the
limited
service
provider
options
that
they're
able
to
refer
to
most
of
the
options
available
through
my
aged
care
are
closed
and
it
is
posing
some
enormous
difficulties
for
our
clients,
so
but
I
think
benell
is
not
alone,
that's
actually
happening
across
the
board,
but
that
is
quite
distressing.
When
you
know
the
assessment
officers
aren't
able
to
refer
people
on
and
they
do
feel
it's
affecting
those
who
are
you
know
people
are
thinking.
B
Well
we're
not
getting
a
referral.
We
won't
worry
about
having
the
assessment,
so
it's
having
a
bit
of
an
ongoing
effect,
but
on
a
more
positive
note,
the
Highlight
that
I
have
recorded
there
was
nadok
week
celebrations
at
the
library
that
were
held
at
the
beginning
of
the
quarter
on
the
4th
of
July.
B
We
had
more
than
100
in
attendance
at
the
flag,
raising
ceremony
and
then
Children's
Day
activities
at
the
library,
and
you
can
see
that
lovely
photo
there
of
Auntie
Pepsi
reading
the
children,
a
story
in
the
library,
so
that
was
a
very
well
attended
event.
So
I
just
draw
your
attention
to
the
recommendation
on
page
29
and
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
Thank.
H
Thanks
Jane
just
a
question
around
the
township
planning
project.
H
B
Won't
be
able
to
do
them
all
through
you,
Mr
chair.
We
won't
be
able
to
do
them
all
at
once.
We
are
prioritizing
those
three
communities
to
start
with,
but
we
have
done
the
basics
for
all
15
towns,
with
the
stats
and
so
forth,
but
what
we
obviously
need
but
feedback
from
the
communities
themselves,
and
this
is
where
Janine
and
Tom
are
going
out
and
liaising
with
them
and
some
of
the
communities
that
want
to
do
more
and
others
less.
B
So
it
is
just
a
matter
of
working
with
them
and
of
course,
some
have
been
a
little
setback
by
you
know
the
raising
events,
but
they
certainly
are
an
ongoing
work
in
progress.
Council
Carriage.
H
B
Please
that's
some
funding
that
we
have
received
to
want
to
do
some
work
with
that
Precinct
I
haven't
personally
been
all
that
involved
with
it.
Tom
Tom
is
the
main
worker
there,
so
I
can
follow
up
and
provide
you
with
a
little
bit
more
information.
I
know
they're.
Looking
at
you
know,
just
bridging
that
area
there
and
they're
looking
at
different
plans
that
you
know
they
want
to
go
through.
B
So
that's
that
whole
area
behind
the
skate
park
and
the
basketball
courts
and
that
whole
area
around
there
and
I
think
it's
not
only
time.
It's
also.
Some
of
the
outdoor
stuff
have
been
involved
too.
C
Yeah
thanks
Jay
I'm.
Just
on
that
point,
you
mentioned
that
not
everybody's
got
it
the
reason
for
that
and
you'll.
B
Be
the
anybody
asks
who
will
be
able
to
you
know
that
was
quite
a
good
little
bit
just
for
you
Mr,
chair,
apparently,
because
at
each
meeting
we
went
to
and
I
actually
sent
an
email
around
to
all
of
the
staff
too,
because
I
was
Finding,
many
people
hadn't
got
it.
We
did
two
different
methods.
B
We
used
Australia
Post
for
our
rural
communities
and
I
think
nearly
on
this
occasion.
Most
people
in
rural
communities
seem
to
get
it,
but
we
used
a
pamphlet,
deliverer,
a
fairly
well-known
pamphlet,
deliverer
to
do
all
of
the
households
in
town
and
we're
finding
that
a
number
of
people
didn't
seem
to
get
it,
and
even
though
we
did
add
extra
copies
in
because
we
decided
that
even
if
people
had
no
junk
mail,
this
wasn't
actually
junk
mail.
So
we
did
7
000
copies
and
we
didn't
get
any
back.
B
So
we
have
it.
I
have
actually
followed
up
with
the
distributor
and
just
mentioned
that
you
know
we're
a
bit
dissatisfied
that
you
know
some
didn't
receive
it
roughly.
I
B
A
C
Really
a
very
various
accounts
does
involve
it,
so
we've
found
the
system
and
communities
so
yeah.
C
A
You
anyone
speaking
against
anyone
wishing
to
speak
for,
if
not
opposite
to
the
vocal
those
in
favor.
That's
carried.
Thank
you
item.
Five
is
the
counselor's
expenses
for
the
quarter
and

September,
2022

I'll.
Take
the
report
as
red
and
Mr
Barber
will
field
any
questions.
If
Council
have
are
there
any
questions?
