A
A

A
A
Item
5a
error
in
agenda
regarding
item
14.2
councillors.
I
have
been
advised
by
the
director
for
advocacy,
partnerships
and
community
that
item
14.2
was
included
in
the
agenda
erroneously
and
the
counselor
who
lodged
that
recision
motion
did
not
wish
for
it
to
be
included
in
the
agenda
papers.
We
will
not
be
considering
item
14.2
and
the
director
has
advised
me
that
it
will
be
corrected
in
the
minutes
for
this
meeting.
A
D
A
A
A
I
would
normally
vacate
the
chair
in
order
to
move
emotion,
but
given
we
are
conducting
this
meeting
virtually
due
to
covert
it
is
too
technically
difficult
to
do
so.
I
wish
to
move
a
motion
that
council
notes
the
passing
of
antikratzis
and
extends
condolences
to
his
family,
including
his
wife,
miss
athena
kratz's
and
her
two
sons.

Two
seven
point
two
we've
got
the
passing
of
claire
brennan
may
have
a
mover
of
the
motivation
for
council
to
extend
their
condolences
from
the
passing
of
claire
brennan
councillor
goodie,
chair.
C
C
C
She
played
a
key
role
in
setting
up
the
auburndale
residents
association
in
starting
a
play
group
and
in
the
local
neighborhood
watch.
She
lobbied
the
epa
about
local
environmental
issues
and,
with
her
late
husband,
dez
contributed
to
resurrection
catholic
parish.
Saint
albans
in
the
1990s
claire
was
a
key
member
of
the
local
residence
action
committee
that
worked
with
government
bodies
to
transform
the
albion
explosive
factory
into
the
new
suburb
of
kenley.
C
C
Claire
was
a
passionate
claire
was
passionate
about
the
black
powder
mill.
According
to
her
daughter,
carolyn
turner,
she
recognized
the
mill's
important
heritage
and
its
value
as
a
reminder
of
the
extensive
musicians
industry,
formerly
in
melbourne's
west
and
the
thousands
who
worked
in
that
industry.
C
C
Her
last
official
duty
was
to
chair
a
committee
meeting
by
zoom
just
now,
a
few
months
ago,
madame
in
june
2020
claire
loved
and
was
loved
by
her
family
and
her
community,
a
brave,
generous
and
lively
person
with
an
indomitable
spirit.
She
will
be
greatly
missed.
She
leaves
six
children,
ten
grandchildren
and
one
great
grandchild.
D
D
G
G
She
was
always
active
in
the
community
as
a
counselor
as
well.
She
she
had
that
spirit
in
her
that
drew
people
to
her.
She
had
the
ability
to
mobilize
people
and
resources
to
make
changes
happen
and
make
good
things
happen
for
the
community
and
she
will
be
sadly,
sadly
missed.
I
think
the
the
ongoing
memory
I
have
is
is
clear,
really
standing
there
and
standing
up
for
her
community
time
and
time
again
so
I'll,
remember
claire.
G
F
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
again,
just
a
couple
of
words
to
say
he
was
missed.
Claire
was
always
knew
the
area
of
albanville
and
she
always
wanted
to
be
called
as
the
mayor
of
albanville.
He
was.
He
was
calling
mario
martin,
the
mayor
of
sunshine,
then
as
the
mayor
of
dear
park,
but
she
was
the
mayor
of
arborville
esmarlo
over
the
years
and
he
spoke
about
margaret.
Just
before,
council
of
judiciary
spoke
about
the
black
powder
mills.
F
We
had
about
seven
of
those
in
that
area
and
currently
they
stayed
there
at
the
time
and
they
started
demolishing
one
by
one
and
you
alert
us.
He
was
cleared
of
the
letters
at
the
time
and
margaret
canceled
jury
check.
Remember
we
saved
that
black
powder
mill
that
is
there
today
and
what
a
wonderful
job
god
bless.
You
claire.
Thank
you.

as

judicia
mentioned,
to
meet
these
women
and
I
can
say
the
smiles
on
their

said
it
all,

it's
certainly
worth
a
while
in
more
ways
than
one
and
I
do
encourage
other

take
part
in
similar

Thanks,
madam
mayor,
yes,
look:
juke
street
community
house
has
been
doing
a
fabulous
job
during
the
the
covert
crisis.
It's
been
there.
It's
been
open,
there's
been
vulnerable
families
dropping
in
all
the
time
to
receive
support
whatever
it
might
be,
and
the
house
has
been
closed

closed

so
on,
and
it

again
be
opening
opening
its
doors
up

the
most
vulnerable
families
around
the

G
B
Thank

again,
with
all
other
community
centers
that
have
been
providing
all
the
services
in
this
difficult
time
is
very
appreciated,
and
I
think
you
know
not
just
about
the
whatever
the
material
that
people
getting
from
this
community
center,
but
the
feeling
and
the
mental
support
as
well
when
they
receive
it,
is
quite
significant
as
well.
So
thank
you
for
all
the
hard
work
that
all
these
people
in
this
community
are
offering
to
our
community
thanks.
I
People
need
to
delivery,
so
they
still
support
and
have-
and
I
think
the
people,
the
member
in
the
community
very
proud
about
all
the
servants
and
all
the
hard
work
from
the
member
and
the
board
member
it
to
do
and
to
show
how
they
support
during
the
difficult
time
call
igniting
for
the
member
in
the
community,
so
recreation
for
all
of
them
and
who

involved
in

the
community.
Thank

I
would
like
to
congratulation
all
the
active
all
the
housework,
all
the
servant

the
community,
and
I
think
that
we
really
miss
someone
like
this
to
doing
for
our
community
and
during
the
college
nighting.
That's
the
service,
the
care
they
provide
for
the
community,
especially
for
for
ao,
so
I
think
it
we
should
recognize
and
congratulations
for
all
test
servers
and
the
people
the
neighbor,
the
neighbor
is
on
task
area.
They
should
very
proud
of

active
people
doing
classwork
for
our
community.
Thank

A
A
We've
now
reached
the
part
of
the
meeting
for
public
questions,
as
communicated
through
our
website
and
two
individual
questionnaires.
All
questions
received
by
council
before
12
noon
that
comply
with
our
meeting
procedure
will
be
read
out
and
answered
at
this
meeting
and
will
also
receive
a
written
response.

A
A
J
J
A
Okay,
thank
you.
The
sunshine
silos
at
two
wright
street
sunshine
are
currently
not
protected
by
heritage
overlay.
In
order
to
apply
for
a
heritage
listing,
an
assessment
would
need
to
be
completed
to
determine
if
they
have
heritage
values
and
determine
whether
planning
controls
should
be
considered
to
protect
the
site.
A
J
Madam
mayor,
the
next
question
is
from
susan
jennison,
who
asks
there
are
no
cleaning
services
being
undertaken
in
keel
or
village.
We
know
that
they
were
contractors
of
the
department
of
health,
but
as
the
drive
through
covert
19
testing,
a
keyword
community
hub
is
still
in
place.
Members
feel
it
is
remiss
not
to
have
the
street
cleaning.
That's
wiping
around
rubbish,
bins,
lamp
holes
and
bus
stop
shelters,
for
instance.
The
important
question
is:
why
aren't
council
promoting
this
contract
still
to
be
upheld?.
A
Thank
you
for
your
question.
Susan.
The
cleaning
service
has
been
undertaken
in
the
killer.
Village
was
part
of
a
short-term
state
government
initiative
entitled
community
cleaning
blitz
for
a
four
week
period
to
help
build
community
confidence,
as
the
staged
lifting
of
covert
19
restrictions
began
back
in
june,
council's
council
was
recently
successful
in
its
working
for
victoria
application,
which
included
a
cleaning
initiative.
However,
given
stage
four
restrictions,
the
new
cleaning
and
other
funded
community
focused
services
will
not
commence
until
the
current
restrictions
are
lifted.
A
J
Next
question,
madam
mayor
is
from
natalie

I
would
like
to
know
why
maintenance
along
grunon
drive
can
lee
has
dropped
off
when
handover
happened
more
than
11
years
ago,
there
would
be

Who
would
mow
and
brush
cut

weeks
then,
five
years
ago,
this
all
stopped
during
this
time
a

street
would
only
come
out
when
I
requested
would
be
done
as
weeds
and

were
over
1.5
meters
tall.
My
last
request,
I
was
told
that
this
is
not
a
parks
area
who
is
now
responsible.
J
How
has
it
been
with
parks
for
12
plus
years
and
now
no
longer
when
will
proper
maintenance
or
a
maintenance
program
being
reinstated
with
regular
brush
cutting
the
plants
cannot
thrive
when
you
allow
weeds
to
grow
so
big
and
then
come
in
and
spray
them
with
weed
killer.
This
area
should
be
beautified
looked
after
and
protected.

question
refers
to

which
is
located

two
questions.
The
friends

park
understands
that
the

of

proposals
submitted
by
the
brimbane
council
has
great
potential
to
catalyze

activation
of
the
sydney
park
precinct.
Are
there
any
recreational
facilities
within
brimbank
that
have
preferential
access
for
female
teams?
The
second
question
is
the
friends
of
sydney
park
understands
that
the
home
of
matilda's
proposal
submitted
by
the
brimbank
council,
seeks

Madam

word:
seven
second
question
is
planning
protections
that
apply
to
274
forest
street,
including
zoning
for
public
park
and
recreation,
ppr
that
environmental
significance,
es04
aboriginal
and
settler
culture
heritage
and
its
connection
to
the
core

corridor.
These
were
all
overridden
when

adopted
design
principles
to
facilitate
the
building
by
the
level
crossing
removal
project
of
a
road
loop
across

and
a
road
ramp
and

J
Given
brimbang's
declaration
of
the
need
for
urgent
and
meaningful
action
on
climate
change,
what
metric
was
used
to
calculate
the
effect
of
this
loss
of
the
loss
of
this
green
buffer
between
rda

specific
question.

local
government
act

for

councillor
to
receive

allowance

are
performing

duties

J
Madam
mayor
we've
received
questions
from
mr
styles
and
ms
wells
in
respect
of
similar
matters,
so
I
might
join
them
together.
For
you.
First
question
from
mr
styles:
I've
been
a
sex
worker
for
five
years
and
regularly
traveled
to
brimbane's
city
council
to
see
my
regular
clients
how
many
sex
workers
who
live
or
work
in
brimbank
did
council
speak
to
or
consult
with
before,
finalizing
a
submission
to
the
state
review
to
decriminalize
sex
work
in
victoria.
J
A
Once
council
became
aware
that
a
review
was
being
undertaken,
the
relatively
short
time
frame
in
which
to
provide
a
submission
meant
there
was
insufficient
time
for
council
to
consult
with
any
sex
workers,
industry
or
advocacy
groups
on
this
matter.
The
submission
is
based
on
bring
bank's
recent
experience
in
dealing
with
alleged
illegal
brothels
and
feedback
received
from
our
community.
Through
this
experience
in
relation
to
question,
2
council's
community
grant
program
is
available
for
eligible
organizations
to
apply
and
provides
financial
support
to
not-for-profit
organizations
and
community
groups.
A
We
will
provide
details
of
how
you
can
apply
in
respect
of
the
consultation
question.

Thank
you
for
your
questions.
Hannah
the
budget
includes
over
six
million
dollars
in
grants
that
have
been
confirmed.
Council
is
always
seeking
grants
from
state
and
federal
government
when
grant
programs
open.
An
example
of
this
is
the
recent
announcement
that
council
has
received
four
million
dollars
in
funding
for
works
at
moore
park
in
sunshine.
A
As
a
result
of
recently
announced

funding
council
continues
to
seek
funding
for
projects
included
in
the
budget
or
identified
by
council
policy
in
relation
to

2
council
regularly
benchmarks
our
fees
and
charges
against
other
council
and
the
most
recent
benchmarking
exercise
showed
that
most
fees
and
charges
are
on
par
or
below
those
set
by
other.
Like
councils.
Thank
you
before
we
continue.
Can
I
just
extend
time
councillors
I'll
put
that
to
a
vote,
all
those
in
favor
against
carrie?
Thank
you.
J
Next
question
from
d11,
madam
mayor,
I
have
been
a
sex
worker
in
melbourne
for
more
than
20
years.
I
co-host
australia's
only
sex
work,
community
radio
show
called
behind
closed
doors.
Would
a
representative
of
council
be
willing
to
be
interviewed
on
air
about
council's
submission
to
the
state
review
to
decriminalize
sex
work
in
victoria,
and
the
second
question
is:
is
council
aware
that
20
of
all
sex
workers
in
victoria
are
men.
A
Thank
you
for
your
invitation
for
a
council
representative
to
speak
on
your
radio
program.
The
invitation
has
been
forwarded
to
our
media
and
communications
team
for
consideration,
and
they
will
contact
you
shortly
with
a
response
question.
Two
no
council
was
not
aware
of
this
figure
and
thanks
and
thank
you
for
bringing
it
to
our
attention.
J
A
Thank
you
stella
for
your
questions.
The
submission
is
predominantly
based
on
bring
bank's
experience
in
dealing
with
alleged
illegal
brothels
and
feedback
received
from
our
community
council
has
received
numerous
complaints
of
illegal
brothels
operating
from
residential
homes
over
the
last
few
years
and
has
been
successful
in
having
a
number
of
these
premises
prescribed
for
a
stroke.
A
There
are
concerns
that,
if
there
are
no
controls
or
regulations
placed
on
home
base
sex
work
that
this
could
impact
the
integrity
and
amenity
of
our
residential
neighborhoods,
it
is
acknowledged
that
not
all
sex
work
or
sex
work
operations
are
run
by
organized
crime,
and
council
does
not
suggest
that
they
are,
however,
as
part
of
council's
enforcement
of
alleged
illegal
brothels.
There
have
been
experiences
where
these
operations
are
being
run
by
criminal
operators.
A
J
And
the
final
two
questions,
madam
mayor
from
anna
marich
question,
one
in
discussions
with
many
other
community
members
that
I've
spoken
with.
We
believe
that
we
have
been
misled
in
reference
to
the
article
that
was
published
in
the
asian
style
weekly,
which
was
also
put
on
social
media,
stating
by
an
anonymous
person
that
the
mayor
was
being
investigated
for
ordering
council
tarkos
to
have
a
covert
19
test
immediately
and
miss
a
council
meeting.
Is
this
true?
Has.
K
J
Has
made
restrictions
on
how
people
work?
I
know
that
many
of
us
are
doing
virtual
meetings
from
home.
I
assume
that
this
applies
to
counsellors
too.
I
have
noticed
that
council
of
virginia
and
john
have
attended
one
meeting
in
the
last
three
to
four
months,
but
yet
they
both
seem
to
be
active
on
social
media.
Daily
council
council
of
virginia
has
mentioned
to
people
in
the
community
that
she
has
commenced
full-time
work
as
a
rate
payer.
I
would
like
to
know
if
councillors
are
getting
paid,
if
not
attending
attending
the
meetings.
If,
yes,
why.
A
Thank
you
for
your
questions.
An
article
published
in
the
age
on
the
10th
of
june
2020
noted
that
acting
chief
municipal
inspector,
dr
john
lynch
confirmed
the
local
government
inspector,
was
assessing
the
complaint
regarding
bring
bank
council
as
yet
bring
back.
City
council
has
no
comment
on
this
matter.
However,
I
have
commenced
an
internal
process
to
deal
with
this
matter.
A
In
relation
to
your
question
about
allowances,
the
local
government
act
provides
for
a
councillor
to
receive
their
allowance
while
they
are
performing
their
duties
as
an
elected
official,
a
councillor
who
does
not
attend
a
meeting
will
receive
the
allowance
for
that
meeting,
and
just
I
want
to
add,
each
counsellor
contributes
in
their
own
way.
Thank
you.
A
A
A
A
A
A
That
is
why,
along
with
commending
tonight's
covert
19
council
report
to
the
chamber,
I
also
acknowledge
and
foreshadow
the
chambers
consideration
of
a
new
19
point
action
plan
for
covert
response
and
recovery
that
will
help
us
seek
a
new
and
elevated
response,
support
and
assistance
from
government
to
tackle
local
covert
issues.
I
again
thank
councillors
and
staff
for
their
work
during
this
unprecedented
period.
Thank
you.
A
L
E
E
D
A
A
N
You,
madam
mayor,
the
purpose
of
this
report
is
to
provide
council
with
a
monthly
report
on
the
status
of
planning,
permit
applications
and
trends
in
planning
approvals
in
brimbank,
and
also
to
provide
council
with
decisions
made
under
delegated
authority.
For
the
period
of
july,
2020
councils
asked
to
note
the
activity
as
detailed
in
attachment
one.
A
A
N
Apologies.
Thank
you.
Madame.
The
purpose
of
this
report
is
to
provide
counsel
with
an
assessment
of
the
application
to
amend
the
section
173
agreement
registered
on
the
title
of
the
land
at
24,
industrial
drive,
sunshine
west,
against
the
provisions
of
the
the
planning
and
environment
act,
1987
officer
recommendation.
A
O
F
A
Okay,
councillors
I'll
put
this
report
to
a
vote,
those
all
in
favor
against
carried
councillors,
I'm
seeking
for
a
five-minute
adjournment.
Could
I
please
have
a
mover
councillor
goody,
chair,
a
secondary
councillor
aziz.
Thank
you.
The
meetings
adjourned
for
five
minutes,
we'll
need
to
go
back
to
all
say
12.1.
A
A
A
C
A
G
G
We
do
have
a
wonderful
community,
that's
down
on
its
knees
at
the
moment,
but
already
it's
fighting
back
and
businesses
and
neighborhood
houses,
as
we
heard
before,
and
local
people
are
doing
all
they
can
and
all
those
kind
things
that
people
do
do
at
times
like
this
to
bind
community
together
as
best
we
can
tonight.
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
that's
going
to
be
my
focus
during
these
covered
times
and
that
when
making
decisions,
that
will
be
front
of
mind
for
me
on
everything
we
do
from
now
on.
A
A
A
N
So
the
current
arrangements
for
accessing
the
western
side
to
the
eastern
side
of
the
railway
line
presents
three
possible
routes.
One
is
through
via
the
the
hv
mckay
memorial
gardens
and
over
the
pedestrian
bridge.
The
other
is
over
the
hampshire
road
road
crossing
and
also
across
the
the
sunshine
station
link
as
well.
O
O
There's
one
of
the
questions
of
interest
that
I
had
in
it
was
that
the
is
this
development
going
to
go
ahead
and
and
how
we
could
guarantee
that
the
applicant
was
very
strongly
putting
the
point
that
the
the
owner,
and
particular
the
hotel
component
were
very
keen
to
go
ahead.
So,
hopefully,
we
are
looking
at
a
development
going
ahead
in
sunshine,
which
would
be
a
significant
job
generator.
O
F
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
Just
very
briefly,
I
think,
council
longer
shower
said
it
just
beautifully
to
me.
This
is
one
of
many
and
I
hope
in
the
near
future.
We
see
many
of
those
hotels
and
other
entertaining
centers
in
sunshine,
and
that's
what
we're
expecting
to
see
this
particular
permanent
was
issue
about
four
or
five
years
ago,
or
maybe
more,
I
believe,
in
reference
to
apartments.
F
Now
it
was
not.
He
got
the
permit
for
that
and
I
believe
now
it'd
be
much
better
for
residents
around
the
area
to
have
the
hotel
instead
of
their
partners,
as
we
know,
136
car
spaces.
Now
that
is
provided
and
most
of
us
know
the
hotels
rear
hotels,
they
don't
need
they,
the
crustaceans
or
the
people
that
come
into
those
hotels,
they're
only
for
a
short
stay
and
they
must
fall.
They
won't
have
many
cars
to
park
overnight.
F
A
G
G
I
also
wonder
about
the
the
safety
issues
for
guests
of
the
hotel
wanting
to
go
to
sunshine
cbd
walking
across
the
overpass
is
the
most
dangerous
thing
you
could
do.
There
are
no
footpaths.
There
are
no
real,
safe
ways
to
get
across
it
across
the
the
railway
line
can
be
exceptionally
dangerous
through
the
railway
station
can
be
dangerous
as
well
and
also
through
mckay
gardens,
particularly
at
night.
G
I
feel
for
the
residents
of
graham
street
and
sun
crescent
and
surrounding
areas
with
the
the
interface
issues
they'll
face.
I
also
think
that
there's
a
an
important
issue
around
architectural
design
and
landscaping
design
guidelines.
Poor
streetscapes
like
this,
we
have
seen
as
council
lancashire
said
some
very
good
architecture
put
forward
in
this.
But
there
is
no
guidance.
We
rely
on
the
market
to
sort
this
out
and
we
all
know
what's
going
on
with
markets.
At
the
moment,
we've
got
an
aged
care
market.
That's
failing.
We've
got
various
markets,
that's
fair!
G
That
are
failing.
Market
failure
is
a
common
thing
and
I
think
certainty
with
architectural
guidelines
and
landscaping
guidelines
for
the
streetscape
will
make
a
real
difference.
We
saw
that
in
canberra
when
councillor
tarkos,
myself,
former
mayor
councillor
congreve
and
the
ceo
went
there
and
saw
that
they
had
these
guidelines
in
place
and
what
a
difference
it
made
created,
value
and
created
amenity
for
for
the
whole
area
developers
wanted
to
build
there
because
it
was
terrific
and
that
sort
of
thing.
G
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
G
G
A
A
Okay,
thank
you
councillors.
You
could
have
declared
a
conflict
of
interest
for
12
a
but
not
for
c.
We
cannot
split
c
up.
Apparently
it's
part
of
the
whole
budget,
so
councillor
farm,
because
you've
declared
a
conflict
of
interest
for
c
now
you
will
have
to
miss
out
on
the
whole
budget
item,
so
we
will
put
you
in
the
holding
bay.
A
C
C
C
The
budget
does
reflect
the
community's
input
and
it
is
for
this
reason
that
I
have
moved
and
amended
motion
tonight.
I
have
been
through
many
budgets,
and
this
is
my
15th
council
budget.
None
has
quite
been
challenging
as
this
one.
It
is
not
the
community
who
have
made
it
challenging
but
covered
19..
C
It
is
extraordinary
that
the
budget
has
had
to
be
delayed,
and
it
is
also
extraordinary
that
the
budget
has
had
to
be
reviewed
and
again
and
again
after
the
submissions.
No
matter
me,
many
answers
became
clear.
It
is
with
this
in
mind
that
I
propose
the
zero
rate
rise
so
that
residents
may
get
some
respite
from
the
rising
tide
of
bills
or
military
payments,
together
with
the
simple
things
of
putting
things
food
on
the
table,
which
may
not
be
simple
for
a
lot
of
people
at
this
time
matter,
ma'am.
C
Of
course,
council.
Will
still
continue
to
offer
the
hardship
policy
to
anyone
who
is
indeed
finding
it
hard
to
pay
the
rates,
despite
the
zero
percent
rate
rise,
how
businesses
are
suffering
and
therefore
there
is
some
respite
for
them
in
proposing
a
15
waiver
on
the
first
three
installments
of
their
rates
notice,
we
have
also
recognized
the
unwavering
work
that
our
neighborhood
houses
do
and
propose
10
10
thousand
dollars
more
yearly
for
each
of
them.
They
have
delivered
excellent
programs
in
extraordinary
circumstances.
C
C
That
is
not
to
say,
and
I
wish
the
sunshine
business
community
to
note
that
the
car
park
will
not
be
built.
It
is
simply
that
at
this
time,
it
cannot
be
built,
as
we
are
awaiting
designs
on
the
super
hub
final
plans
for
the
sunshine
priority
precinct
and
also
the
airport
rail
link
and,
of
course,
the
opportunities
which
may
arise
out
of
sunshine
being
the
capital
of
the
west.
C
I
have
no
doubt
that
the
next
council
will
be
making
a
decision
on
the
car
park
and
that
it
will
in
fact
be
needed
at
some
stage.
However,
for
now
the
community
needs
these
funds,
these
urgent
funds,
and
we
have
recognized
this.
I
also
wish
to
mention
that
the
cycling
and
walking
paths
have
also
been
considered
and,
after
more
advice,
more
work
needs
to
be
done
in
advocating
and
negotiating
with
private
property
owners
and
government
agencies
to
be
able
to
make
the
links
which
were
spoken
about
in
the
submissions.
C
Everything
else
in
the
capital
works
program
will
remain
the
same
and
will
be
delivered.
I
especially
want
to
mention
the
sporting
clubs,
playgrounds
and
parks,
which,
to
me
should
seem
a
logical
thing
to
continue
and
not
change,
as
that
infrastructure
will
be
extremely
important
for
our
community
to
start
readjusting
post
covert.
C
C
C
We
are
living
in
extraordinary
times,
but
we
still
need
to
be
guided
by
our
council
plan,
which
the
community
contributed
to.
I
have
no
doubt
that
the
next
council
will
also
be
looking
at
a
new
council
plan
and,
of
course,
we'll
have
to
make
reference
to
30
seconds
council.
Thank
you.
In
the
meantime,
this
council
has
responded
to
community
concerns
and
will
continue
to
deliver
services,
and
it's
also
refocusing
on
some
priorities
and
supporting
community
through
crisis
delivers
new
priorities.
C
A
P
Yes,
thank
you,
madam
mayor.
I
agree
with
my
counselor
good
jay.
The
things
that
she's
putting
forward
are
really
makes
sense
to
hold
off
on
the
car
park
with
businesses
not
doing
as
well
as
that
has
been
thanks
to
cobra
19.
I
don't
think
we
need
the
car
park
as
much
as
we
need
some
of
the
the
zero
inch
rise
on
the
rates.
So
I
think
you
know
to
put
the
car
park
back
a
little
bit
just
until
the
next
budget
is
a
better
thing
to
do
so.
P
A
G
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
I'd
like
to
put
forward
or
foreshadow
an
amended
motion
as
well.
I
hear
councillor
guducho's
comments.
I
hear
what
the
community
has
said
to
council
very,
very,
very
loudly
that
business
as
usual.
Isn't
the
go
in
this
particular
budget.
We
are
in
a
crisis
here
in
brimbank
we
are
in
a
hot
spot,
one
of
the
nation's
biggest
hot
spots,
and
that
that
community
transmission
is
not
going
to
go
away
for
quite
some
time
and
there
will
be
ongoing
effort
needed
to
keep
it
low
around
here.
G
So
for
me,
I
think
that
the
budget
doesn't
go
far
enough.
What
councillor
is
proposing.
My
proposal
is
that
a
zero
percent
rate
rise
occur,
that
there'd
be
zero
fees
and
charges
rises
and
there'd
be
no
240.
Lin
240,
liter
bin
charge
rise
that
hardship
policy
is,
as
per
the
council
policy,
that
there
is
the
waiver
of
fifteen
percent
on
business
rates
over
the
three
three
particular
payment
periods.
I
also
propose
that
the
capital
works
get
adjusted.
This
isn't
business
as
usual.
G
G
A
A
G
G
A
G
It
adds
in
a
peer
review
of
the
melbourne
airport
development
plan,
in
particular
the
research
and
literature
used
regarding
the
impacts
of
noise
on
community
health
and
wellbeing,
a
two
hundred
thousand
dollar
project
that
was
identified
by
the
officers.
It
includes
a
stoney
creek
at
brimbank
master
plan.
G
It
includes
the
exclusion
of
some
roads
projects,
as
per
the
community
advice
to
council
worth
two
million
dollars
and
an
increase
of
two
million
dollars.
Therefore,
in
the
footpath
replacement
because
of
covered
times
and
the
use
of
footpaths
more
than
roads.
At
the
moment,
it
includes
a
million
dollars
for
shovel
ready
projects
and
a
pipeline
of
projects
to
be
developed
for
small
local
town
centres.
Okay,.
G
Come,
oh
there's
it.
It
includes
a
consideration
of
slowing
down
a
number
of
capital
works
because
of
the
covered
emergency.
That's
on
at
the
moment.
The
impact
that's
having
on
capital
works
in
the
area
and
the
ability
of
councillors
to
do
have
councils
and
contractors
to
do
their
work,
proposing
that
we
slow
these.
The
building
of
the
health,
the
sonorants
health
and
wellbeing
hub
and
save
18
million
dollars
in
cash
by
closing
it
down
and
doing
some
covered
investigations.
A
C
Madame
the
point
of
order
is
on
relevance.
I'm
seeking
a
clarification,
as
my
amendment
was
simply
an
amendment.
Counselor
hitches
motion
seems
to
be
a
completely
different
motion.
It
is
substantially
different
from
the
original
motion
printed
in
the
business
papers.
As
I've
said,
mine
is
an
amendment.
C
G
A
A
G
A
G
A
G
Madam
mayor,
I
I
I
raised
the
point
of
order
and
met
amir
and
asked
the
governance
team
for
advice
that
this
this
amendment,
that
I'm
putting
forward
is
no
different
to
councillor
goodachos
in
its
structure.
It
has
a
rates
component.
It
has
a
fees
and
charges
component
which
adds
to
it.
But
it's
all
the
capital
works
things
that
I'm
proposing
are
inside.
The
capital
works
budget,
74
million
dollars
they're
well
inside
it
they
are
for
less
than
the
74
million.
A
C
D
D
D
D
A
G
G
G
So
I'd
like
to
speak
against
the
motion
for
not
going
far
enough
in
these
covert
times
that
we
we
still
have
a
lot
of
business
as
usual
in
it.
The
things
I'd
like
to
suggest
are
the
240
liter
bin
charge
be
kept
at
the
same
level,
and
the
fees
and
charges
be
kept
at
the
same
level.
Also,
I'd
also
like
to
suggest
that
councillor
gute
takes
on
board
the
peer.
O
G
Thank
you,
madam
mayor,
and,
and
I
think
we
also
need
to
be
thinking
about
things
that
will
help
with
recovery.
One
of
the
things
that
will
help
with
recovery-
that's
not
mentioned
in
council
and
good
chase
notice
of
motion.
Sorry
motion
is
that
there
is
a
possibility
of
doing
a
peer
review
piece
of
work
on
the
melbourne
airport
development
plan,
and
that
is
a
200
000
project
identified
by
the
thank.
A
O
The
we
started
our
term
in
council
in
a
with
a
difficult
budget,
with
a
million
dollars
of
discretionary
spending
and
we're
ending
our
term
in
covert
times
with
an
equally
difficult
budget
to
deal
with,
and
the
proposal
to
defer
to
the
next
council.
The
multi-deck,
which
has
a
line
item
budget
move,
is
a
very
good
move.
I
believe,
to
deliver
a
zero
budget
increase
given
the
difficult
times
we're
in
it's
good
to
do.
O
But
it
is
amazing
that
we've
been
able
to
do
that
frankly,
and
I
would
also
like
to
say
that
there
are
a
number
of
things
in
this
budget
that
are
really
quite
excellent.
Despite
the
incredibly
difficult
times
we
find
ourselves
in-
and
I
won't
say
any
more
about
the
smorgans
leisure
center
it
has
been
previously
mentioned,
but
that's
a
generational
project
that
few
councillors
get
to
see
happen
in
their
municipalities.
O
And
now,
at
the
end
of
that
time,
we
see
a
strategy
adopted
and
money
available
for
for
that,
so
that
sets
it
up,
of
course,
for
the
matilda's
bid,
which
is
excellent
for
conservation,
sporting
grounds
and
and
as
mentioned
the
robinson
homestead.
So
there's
a
lot
in
this
budget
to
commend
to
the
councillors
well
done
to
the
staff
for
their
incredible
amount
of
work.
I
truly
appreciate
it
and
well
done
to
this
group
of
councils.
K
C
C
C
However,
a
couple
of
points
I
just
wish
to
raise
from
councillor
heritage
speaking
against
it,
the
240
leader
charge,
is
proposing
from
698
to
make
it
fifty
dollars
less
we're
talking
about
fifty
dollars
in
anime
and
we're
talking
about
also
that
in
our
waste
litter
and
recycling
strategy
that
we
are
encouraging
people
to
produce
less
litter.
So
I
would
think
that
council
would
be
thinking
of
phasing
out
the
240
litre
bins
somewhere
in
the
future,
so
I'm
not
sure
whether
that
would
make
a
substantial
difference.
C
However,
the
measures
that
we
have
gone
to
in
this
budget
to
address
the
community
concerns
are
very
real,
and
I
believe
that
the
motion
that
we
have
before
us
addresses
the
community
business
and,
in
fact,
everyone's
needs
right
across
the
municipality.
Of
course
it's
never
enough,
but
I
think
that
this
council
has
considered
quite
seriously
that
we
need
to
provide
something
to
our
residents
right
now
in
this
very
great
time
of
need.
So
thank
you,
madam
mayor
I'll,
finish
it
off
with
that.
Thank
you
very
much.
A
A
A
A
A
A
So
I
can't
hear
oh
division:
did
you
ask
for
a
division
council
heritage?
Okay,
all
those
who
voted
in
favor,
please
put
your
hand
up
and
then
put
it
down
once.
I've
called
your
name
councillor
geneva
aziz,
councillor
bruce
lancashire,
councillor
margaret
gordoche,
councillor
victoria
ball,
councillor,
daniel
allen,
councillor
kim
tientrung
and
councillor
sam
david
and
myself,
councillor
georgina
papafodio;
those
who
voted
against
hands
up
we've
got
councillor
john
heddage.
A
A
Q
Sorry.
Is
there
a
problem?
No
sorry
I'll
continue.
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
The
monthly
governance
report
is
a
standing
item
within
the
ordinary
council
meeting
agenda.
It
is
a
summary
of
recent
governance
activity
in
accordance
with
best
practice
and
good
governance
principles
written
in
compliance
with
provisions
applying
respectively
in
the
local
government
act
89
and
the
local
government
act
of
2020.
The
report
variously
informs
council
of
delegated
decisions,
outcomes
of
previous
council
resolutions
or
seeks
relevant
decision
for
action.
A
C
A
C
Yes,
madam
med,
just
briefly,
it
does
contain
a
lot.
This
governance
report
this
month
are
there
are
instruments
of
delegation
usually
rep
the
usual
reporting
of
portfolio
meetings,
all
of
our
new
rules,
meetings
with
mps
contracts
entered
into
the
draft
open
space
contributions
policy,
the
naming
of
the
advisory
committee
also
for
the
islands,
leisure
centre,
the
naming
of
the
committee
members
for
the
brooklyn
industrial
precinct
committee,
also,
so
not
to
say
this
council
hasn't
been
doing
any
work
madame
it's
certainly.
C
D
A
Q
C
C
The
transforming
brimbank
agenda
has
identified
three
key
policy
responses
and
a
19
point
plan
which
are
all
equally
as
important
to
attract
and
deliver
projects
and
dollars,
as
we
continue
to
maneuver
and
adjust
to
covert
to
a
covert
environment
and
poor,
more
importantly,
to
live
beyond
it
great
work
by
everyone.
Thank
you
very
much.
D
A
A
N
Thank
you
madame.
The
purpose
of
this
report
is
for
council
to
consider
endorsing
the
draft
transforming
brimbank
leading
with
vision,
future
priorities,
a
report
shown
at
attachment
one
for
the
purpose
of
targeted
community
stakeholder
engagement
and
direct
council
officers
to
undertake
undertake
that
targeted
consultation
about
the
draft
vision
and
future
priorities,
and
it
also
seeks
council
direction
to
provide
copies
of
the
draft
vision
and
future
priorities
to
a
range
of
identified
ministers
and
members
of
both
the
commonwealth
and
state
parliaments
and
various
government
departments.
N
G
N
Through
you,
madam
mayor,
the
community,
this
document,
of
course
builds
on
the
previous
document
that
was
prepared
presented
to
council
and
adopted
by
council,
which
was
the
the
building
brimbank
document
that
undertook
extensive
community
consultation.
In
addition,
council,
the
the
document
draws
on
over
50
documents
that
all
involved
community
engagement.
F
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
This
is
to
do
the
portfolio
connecting
bring
bank
and
key
pillars
on
the
connect.
Improvement
portfolio
include
public
transport
freight
roads.
The
western
rail
regional
rail
plan,
including
the
melbourne
air
for
railing
and
sanctions
super
hub,
are
critical
components
for
the
mayor
in
truly
enormous
once-in-a-generation
transformation.
F
F
In
particular,
this
creation
of
thriving
sunshine
cbd
will
bring
economic
and
social
benefits
for
the
entire
pimba
community
in
the
wider
western
region.
The
melbourne
air
for
rail
and
upgrades
to
sunshine
and
albion
stations
are
tremendous
opportunities.
Madam
mayor,
to
unlock
the
potential
of
the
sunshine
cbd
premium
and
descension
prison
are
both
strategically
positioned
to
undergo
extensive
transformation.
F
It
is
important
that
the
future
vision
in
our
country
communicated
to
a
law
in
all
stakeholders,
including
state
government,
key
institutions,
landowners
business
in
their
wider
community
to
find
shape,
purpose
and
deliver
coordinated
outcomes
and
maximize
community
benefit.
This
is
a
a
great
futuristic
report.
Modern
maryland
commander
to
council.
G
Would
thank
you,
madam
mayor.
I
hear
the
words
of
council
like
councillor
david
councillor,
david
will
recall.
We
were
going
to
the
sunshine
partnership
meetings
when
we
first
started
up
as
a
council,
and
we
were
looking
for
concept
plans
of
various
things,
then
so
it's
great
that
we
have
them
now,
and
this
is
a
comprehensive
view
of
the
precinct
with
various
different
aspects
shown
there.
I
congratulate
the
staff
for
all
the
hard
work
they've
done.
This
is
the
first
time
council's
put
something
like
this
to
sorry
this.
G
G
I
guess
it
to
me:
it
sits
beside
the
vision
that
came
out
steve
brax,
launched
a
while
ago
and
more
recently,
the
great
greater
sunshine
community
alliance
produced
a
vision
for
the
the
sunshine
area
as
well,
and
so
it
sits
with
with
this
one.
So
we
have
three
documents
now
with
visions
for
the
area.
G
That's
great,
I
think,
there's
a
a
point
in
time
where
we
do
need
to
get
back
to
community,
as
director
walsh
has
just
told
us
february
next
year
sounds
good
when
there
has
been
more
targeted
consultation,
involvement
with
departments
and
other
key
stakeholders
that
may
be
interested
in
investing
in
sunshine
over
the
coming
years
as
covert
ceases
and
into
the
future.
As
our
I
guess,
our
next
development
boom
comes
along
in
the
decades
ahead.
We
look
forward
to
the
precinct
developing
the
way
it
is
intended
to
develop.
G
O
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
I
would
certainly
like
to
endorse
the
comments
of
the
previous
two
councillors
in
relation
to
this.
This
is
a
good
report.
It's
exciting,
to
see.
Looking
forward
to
2050,
we
have
seen,
of
course,
the
3d
computer,
rendering
of
some
of
the
ideas
for
the
center
we've
seen
the
pictures
of
the
pedestrianization
of
some
parts
of
the
center,
and
it
looks
very
interesting,
very
futuristic
and
very
exciting.
O
So
I
don't
want
to
say
too
much,
but
certainly
it
is
something
I
think
we
can
look
forward
to
in
february
getting
that
as
a
stepped
process,
getting
that
feedback
from
government
departments
and
and
taking
it
forward
from
there,
but
it
is
a
great
report
well
done
to
the
staff
very
impressive.
Thank
you
very
much.
Madame.
A
N
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
The
purpose
of
this
report
is
for
council
to
note
that
council
officers
have
provided
a
submission
to
the
review
into
the
decriminalization
of
sex
work
in
victoria,
as
shown
at
attachment
one
and
for
council
to
consider
endorsing
the
submission
and
advising
the
inquiry
as
the
inquiry
secretariat
of
council
endorsement.
A
A
C
A
G
I'd
like
to
support
madame
mayor,
I
think
that
it's
a
wise
move,
we're
getting
conflicting
advice.
We
need
to
listen
to
that
advice
and
to
get
this
right.
There
are
people
affected
by
this
and
I
think
getting
it
right,
for
everyone
is
the
way
to
go.
So
I
supported
referring
and
a
briefing
by
the
officers
and-
and
the
expert
group
involved
with
it.
A
R
Thank
you
very
much,
madam
mayor.
The
purpose
of
this
report
is
for
council
to
consider
endorsing
trading,
better
parks
policy
and
plan
draft
community
report
card
for
2019-20,
which
is
an
attachment
one
to
the
report
and
also
the
annual
assessment
and
subsequent
changes
to
the
part
network
in
the
creating
better
parks
policy
and
plan
2016..
R
The
draft
community
report
card
provides
a
summary
of
limited
implementation
of
creating
better
parks,
policy
and
plan
in
the
financial
year
2019
20..
It
also
includes
details
on
park,
upgrade
works
completed,
as
well
as
a
proposed
change
to
a
park
classification
in
the
policy
and
plan
based
on
annual
assessments.
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
A
K
O
Yes,
thank
you,
madam
mayor
as
portfolio
counselor
for
the
livable
brimbank
portfolio,
which
looks
at
urban
amenities,
recreation,
urban
design
and
facilities.
I
am
pleased
to
see
the
creating
better
parks
community
report
card
2019
to
20
presented
this
evening.
The
report
card
includes
details
of
park
upgrade
works
completed
as
part
of
the
annual
budget.
2019
2020.,
the
creating
better
parks
policy
and
plan
was
first
adopted
by
council
in
2008
as
a
blueprint
to
transform
the
park
network
in
brimbank.
O
O
O
The
most
recent
award
was
for
the
sun
vale
community
park
in
2019
receiving
a
high
commendation
in
the
category
of
environmental
sustainability
from
keep
victoria
beautiful
brim
banks,
public
and
open
spaces
are
safe,
clean
and
well
managed.
The
report
card
demonstrates
success
in
creating
a
livable
community,
a
place
where
our
community
belong
and
are
proud
where
they
live.
I
commend
this
report
to
council.
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
C
C
G
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
I'd
like
to
also
commend
the
the
value
of
the
creating
better
parks,
policy
and
plan.
I
remember
writing
submissions
to
have
it
have
it
established
in
2008
and
council.
Lancashi
had
talked
about
the
fine
achievements
it's
made
and
how
we
want
to
have
the
best
park
networks
around
and
that
we
want
safe,
clean
and
well
managed
parks.
G
And
I
guess,
when
you
look
at
the
report
card,
you
see,
there's
been
a
stage
three
upgrade
of
the
lakes
reserve
in
taylor's
lake,
some
suburban
parks,
upgraded
and
so
on.
But
I
look
at
the
the
creating
better
parks
policy
now
and
I
look
at
the
outcomes
and
we've
just
mentioned
a
whole
heap
of
fine
ones
and
the
awards
have
been
won.
But
I
look
sideways
and
I
look
at
the
flagship
park.
G
So
for
me,
it's
a
great
policy
and
plan,
but
it's
not
working
as
well
as
it
used
to
it's,
leaving
people
out
it's
leaving
communities
behind
and
that
there
needs
to
be
some
work
done
on
getting
it
back
in
order,
so
that
the
communities
that
are
underdone
that
don't
have
the
access
to
parks
and
open
spaces
that
others
do
in
brimbank
are
able
to
catch
up.
And
I
think
that's
the
work
of
the
next
council.
It's
the
work
of
the
officers
in
making
creating
better
parks,
a
fairer
policy
and
plan
than
what
it
is
today.
A
G
A
A
L
L
D
To
this
report,
yes,
I
do
mata
mayor,
thank
you
as
portfolio
champion
for
the
brimbank
people
portfolio,
which
includes
lifelong
learning.
I
am
very
pleased
to
see
the
final
draft
library
strategy
report
presented
to
council
this
evening.
I
am
very
proud
of
the
critical
work
being
undertaken
by
our
libraries.
D
D
D
emerging
priorities
for
the
library
strategy
are
places
and
belonging
learning,
community,
lifelong
readers
and
being
future
focused.
The
strategy
responds
to
the
community's
needs
and
interests
and,
most
importantly
for
me,
it
fosters
the
love
of
lifelong
reading
and
learning.
I
commend
this
report
to
council.
B
Thank
you,
madame
may
I,
as
I
won
the
echo
councillor
book
of
what
she
was
saying,
but
also
I
also
to
want
to
express
my
feeling
also.
I
think
it's
also
the
feeling
of
a
lot
of
our
community
about
library,
which
is
like
our
first
destination
when
we
come
to
the
new
land,
the
new
municipality,
that
we
want
to
call
it
at
home
and
that's
the
play
that
most
of
people
go
to
visit.
B
Firstly,
and
everyone
feel
very
welcoming,
feel
that
place
of
belonging
is
because
we
providing
our
books
in
a
few
languages,
also
just
certain
services
that
we
provide
to
people
or
support
people
that
come
to
our
library
and
we
keep
progressing
our
work
as
well,
not
just
stopping
there.
So
I
highly
recommend
this
report
to
camp.
Thank
you.
C
C
Council
has
certainly
moved
with
the
times
in
many
many
ways,
not
only
justice
during
this
covert
crisis,
but
all
along
the
way
council
has
found
ways
to
deliver
services
innovatively
in
our
libraries.
So
I
commend
all
the
work
that
the
staff
do
by
finding
new
ways
of
engaging
the
community
in
our
libraries
and
they
continue
to
be
a
source
of
information
to
be
social,
to
catch
up
for
children
to
go
their
story
time
with
their
mums.
C

L

The
final
draft
strategy
recognises
that
social
inclusion
is
a
key
element
in
preventing
crime
and
supporting
safe
and
inclusive
communities.
The
broad
approach
and
the
priority
areas
of
the
final
strategy
were
affirmed
by
feedback
received
from
the
community
during
public
exhibition
from
the
23rd
of
march
until
the
12th
of
june
2020..
Thank
you.
P
P
The
outcomes
of
this
research
and
engagement
show
that
social
inclusion
is
a
key
element
in
creating
a
welcoming
and
diverse
community
where
people
feel
safe,
included
and
able
to
contribute
and
participate.
The
new,
safe,
inclusive
wing
bank
strategy
is
underpinned
by
the
principles
of
social
inclusion.
P
P
This
priority
area
focuses
on
building
a
community
where
people
feel
safer
where
crime
is
reduced
and
residents
are
supported
to
feel
included
and
actively
contribute
to
the
community,
safer
streets
and
public
spaces.
This
priority
area
focuses
on
the
design
and
the
maintenance
of
public
paces
in
order
to
enhance
the
protection
of
protections
of
safety
and
reduce
optimistic
crimes.
P
Strategic
partnerships,
community
safety
is
a
shared
responsibility
across
government,
police,
service
providers,
business
and
the
community.
This
priority
area
focuses
on
formal
structures
such
as
the
safety
round
table
and
the
partnership
and
collaboration
with
victoria
police
and
the
community
and
other
stakeholders
over
the
next
four
years.
The
new
street
strategy
will
be
important
to
help
our
community
rebuild
and
recover
from
the
impacts
of
covert
19
pandemic
in
partnership
with
all
levels
of
government,
police
and
community
service
providers.
D
This
is
also
in
line
with
the
feedback
from
the
community
and
analysis
community
impacts
presented
by
covet
19,
which
suggests
that
social
inclusion,
inclusive
policy
and
programs
are
now
more
important
than
ever.
This
is
a
fantastic
piece
of
work,
and
I
really
want
to
acknowledge
the
hardware
that
has
been
put
behind
it
by
the
officers,
and
I
would
again
would
like
to
commend
this
to
council.
Also.
Thank
you.
A
G
Thanks,
madam
mayor,
I
echo
the
comments
of
councils
as
is,
and
borg
I'd,
also
like
to
make
comments
with
my
prosperous
brim
bank
portfolio
hat
on
the
three
priority
areas
around
stronger
communities,
strategic
partnerships
and
safer
streets
and
public
spaces.
I
wanted
to
talk
a
bit
about
safer
streets
and
public
spaces
with
that
prosperous
brim.
Bank
hat
on
we've
had
a
lot
of
comments
from
from
traders
and
various
groups
about
the
need
to
do
more
in
this
space
in
this
community
safety
space
and
I'm
here
to
be
a
community
voice
for
those
those
groups.
G
We've
also
heard
tonight
with
the
new
residential
hotel
approval
that
there
is
a
an
issue
in
terms
of
getting
around
the
cbd
of
sunshine
area,
and
I
think
there's
also
been
issues
in
that
sun
organs
area.
But
we've
done
we've
made
interventions
there
to
help
improve
things.
We
need
to
do
things
down
this
way
as
well
and
also
in
water,
gardens
and
other
spaces
and
places.
G
But
I
think
what
it
demonstrates
to
me
is
that
there
has
to
be
a
connection
of
community
safety
to
any
streetscapes
work
that
we
do
in
creating
better
streets
and
that
we
need
to
make
sure
that
that
design
and
that
aspiration
of
community
inclusion
and
the
ability
to
activate
the
streets
and
and
make
them
places
where
people
can
come
together
in
in
a
safe
way
is
so
important.
So
I
look
forward
to
hearing
more
about
safer
streets
and
public
spaces.
G
I
I
So
any
reject
redirection,
presentable,
rewind
every
show
of
the
chain
called
by
the
corvis
19
vladimir
and
according
with
any
allegations
made
by
council,
will
be
during
the
tick
tom
and
their
counselor
john
harris
is
mentioned
is
a
lot
of
business
people
along.
They
really
worry
about
the
safety,
and
I
think
this
is
really
important
for
our
community
when
we
have
the
final
of
the
from
the
council
decision
for
teacher
safety
for
the
community.
I
A
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Councillor
trump.
Are
there
any
other
speakers
for
this
report?
Okay,
I'll,
put
it
to
a
vote,
those
in
favor
against
carried
two
things
counsellors.
First,
I
need
someone
to
move
that
we
have
an
extension
of
half
an
hour
for
this
council
meeting.
Do
I
have
a
mover
councillor,
good
chair,
a
secondary
councillor
david?
A
A
A
A
A
I
A
L

The
study
provides
options
for
council
to
meet
some
of
the
recreational
needs
of
disengaged
young
people,
both
in
the
short
and
long
term.
The
report
recognises
the
specific
needs
of
this
group
of
young
people,
those
aged
12
to
20
years
and
demonstrates
how
mainstream
leisure
and
recreational
opportunities
do
not
cater
for
them.
The
focus
of
the
study
was
to
consult
with
disengaged
young
people
and
stakeholders
through
a
co-design
process
about
what
specific
activities
young
people
would
participate
in
within
a
youth
recreation
centre,
and
what
this
type
of
facility
or
spaces
would
look
like.
Thank
you.
A
D
A
key
action
from
the
recommendations
was
for
a
co-design
group
group
comprising
key
stakeholders
representatives
to
investigate
and
develop
options
for
a
youth
recreational
center
and
to
investigate
or
trial
program
options.
This
resulted
in
the
youth,
recreation,
center,
co-design
and
location
study.
D
Key
learnings
were
that
the
current
recreation
and
leisure
options
and
programming
do
not
meet
the
needs
of
disengaged
young
people.
Young
people
indicated
that
they
only
hung
out
at
shopping,
centers
and
train
stations,
as
there
were
no
other
options
for
them
at
home
or
within
the
broader
community.
D
D
Due
to
the
kovits9
pandemic.
There
will
be
even
more
young
people
not
only
unemployed,
but
also
these
disengaged
from
education
and
training.
There
is
also
concern
that
isolation
and
social
distancing
have
led
to
young
people
missing
out
on
their
physical
health
and
well-being
needs.
This
is
important
work
and
we
need
to
maintain
momentum
of
this
initiative.
G
G
We
have
before
us
a
report
that
paints
a
picture,
but
that
picture
needs
action
and
I
don't
think
the
the
time
is
left
now
to
call
on
others
to
do
things.
We
have
to
start
doing
it
ourselves
and
we've
made
budget
commitments
tonight
and
various
other
things,
but
going
forward
we're
going
to
have
to
rely
on
our
own
resources,
resources
of
the
young
people
themselves
and
others
in
the
community
who
can
help,
but
we
also
need
to
start,
I
think,
ramping.
G
I
know
that
all
the
work
that's
going
on
around
advocacy
and
things
like
that,
but
where
do
we
go?
Where
do
we
go
in
future?
We've
done
so
much
and
got
so
little.
We
have
a
community,
that's
on
its
knees,
a
group
of
young
people
who
are
probably
worse
affected
than
any
in
the
in
the
whole
of
the
state,
and
I
just
I
just
wonder
where
we're
going
to
get
that
support
from
no
point
putting
the
head
down
and
worrying
about
it
too
much.
G
It's
a
matter
of
everyone
getting
together
and
getting
organized
and
getting
the
the
strength
of
community
behind
it.
Because
we
need
to
look
after
our
young
people.
We
need
to
bring
bring
them
along
and
they
need
to
be
leading
the
charge
with
us.
So
I
commend
the
report.
I
commend
councillor
borg
and
all
the
people
in
the
portfolio
areas
and
inside
the
the
council
for
the
work
they're
doing
but
boy
have.
We
got
some
work
to
do
in
this
space.
Going
forward.
Commend
the
report
to
councillors.
B
Mayor,
I
think
this
is
a
very
important
core
design
and
report
that
should
be
hardly
implemented
and
and
bring
brought
forward
going
through.
This
report,
I
think,
is
this:
work
is
like
giving
a
hand
to
someone
who
have
fall
already
and
and
try
to
pull
them
up
and
and
be
normal,
just
be
normal
first
before
they
actually
progress,
and
that's
our
young
people,
and
it
is
a
quite
significant,
important
step
that
we
do
in
supporting
our
young
people.
B
I
also
recognize
there's
a
lot
of
our
young,
our
youth
actually
leave
school
or
not
getting
engaged
with
anything
in
their
society.
Any
good
thing
in
society,
maybe
just
because
of
one
little
incident
or
maybe
they
their
english
literacy,
is
not
very
good
and
they
just
fall
out,
but
you
know
with
a
different
thing
that
we
plan
for
them
in
the
future.
I
hope
that
will
help
and
bring
a
better
future
for
our
youth.
Thank
you.
A
A
L
L
D
D
C
C
I
know
when
we
used
to
come
into
the
council
offices,
which
seems
like
forever
ago,
most
of
the
times,
I'd
walk
in
through
the
library
and
I'd
see
a
number
of
students
taking
advantage
of
our
spaces
to
quietly
study
at
home,
perhaps
because
the
space
at
home
is
not
adequate
for
them
to
quietly
study.
So
that's
also
a
provision
of
a
service
that
we
are
going
in
that
we
are
still
continuing
madame.
So
I
do
definitely
recommend
this
report
to
the
council.
Thank
you.
A
A
L
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
The
purpose
of
this
report
is
for
council
to
consider
the
brimbank
council
plan
draft
year,
4
action
plan,
2020
21
at
attachment
1.
The
draft
action
plan
contains
115
actions
related
to
the
17
strategic
objectives
of
the
council
plan.
The
progress
of
actions
are
reported
to
council
on
a
quarterly
basis.
Thank
you.
C
Yes,
just
briefly,
madame
council
plan,
I
can't
believe
that
we're
in
year
four
of
the
council
plan,
which
means
that
we
helped
formulate
with
the
community
this
council
current.
This
current
council
plan
we're
in
year
four,
which
is
quite
incredible,
and
we
certainly
have
consulted
with
quite
a
bit
of
the
community
and
of
course,
we
always
always
welcome
our
comments
from
the
community
and
every
year.
C
So
we
do
have
115
actions
relating
to
17
strategic
objectives,
and
they
are,
of
course,
within
the
existing
resources
and
budget.
The
progress
of
the
actions
are
reported
to
council
on
a
quarterly
plan.
I
don't
wish
to
say
any
more,
madam
meh,
but
simply
to
say
that
I
do
commend
the
report
and
also
the
year
four
annual
action
plan.
Thank
you.
A
D
Yes,
thank
you,
madam
mayor,
just
briefly,
to
say
that
again,
this
is
quite
a
comprehensive
report
and
that
the
council
of
judiciary
covered
it
pretty
well.
But
perhaps
it's
important
to
mention
also
that
to
note.
Rather
the
implementations
of
year,
one
of
a
number
of
strategies
that
were
adapted
by
council,
including
what
we
mentioned:
the
brimbank
library
strategy,
the
strategic
framework
for
library
collections,
brimbank
people,
strategy,
brimbank
children's
strategy
and
brim
bank
community
youth
strategy,
as
well
as
the
brimbank
year,
one
actions
in
the
brimbank
climate
emergency
plan.
D
A
A
L
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
The
purpose
of
this
report
is
for
council
to
note
the
disability,
action
plan,
age,
friendly
city
plan
and
volunteer
strategy,
nearly
report
cards.
These
documents
guide
council's
commitment
to
work
collaboratively
with
other
levels
of
government,
business
service
providers
and
community
groups.
They
determine
council's
approach
to
emerging
trends,
future
opportunities
and
ensure
relevant
systems
and
process
are
in
place
to
respond
to
community
needs.
Thank
you.

C

Thank
you,
madam
mayor
I'd,
just
like
to
commend
the
officers
for
the
reports,
they're,
three
important
areas
and
it's
good
to
see
the
cards
report
cards
coming
through.
I
wanted
to
make
a
comment
with
my
past
social
justice
hat
at
my
current
dak
committee
hat
on
I've
been
on
dac
for
the
life
of
this
council
and
it's
great
to
see
the
disability
report
coming
forward.
G
But
there's
information
components,
there's
all
sorts
of
different
components
to
it
and
each
of
them
add
up
to
something
holistic
and
special
and
I'd
love
to
see
some
regular
reporting
on
how
the
whole
is
coming
along.
Not
just
one
part.
Every
now
and
then
it's
an
important
initiative
for
carers,
carers,
people
with
disability
in
this
particular
community.
We
have
a
lot
of
them
and
they
need
as
much
support
as
we
can
get
so.
G
Can
I
encourage
the
officers
and
councillor
borg
as
she
does
her
fabulous
work
chairing
the
committee
to
encourage
a
holistic
reporting
of
what's
happening
with
that
civility
carers
hub
and
how
each
of
the
elements
are
being
progressed,
because
four
years
is
a
long
time
and
people
have
been
very
patient,
but
we
need
to
get
into
action.
Thank
you.
A
A
R
Thank
you
very
much,
madam
mayor.
At
the
ordinary
council
meeting
on
the
15th
of
may
2018
council
adopted
the
waste
recycling
litter
strategy
2018
to
2028
and
noted
a
five-year
implementation
plan.
The
strategy
outlines
actions
over
the
next
10
years
that
will
move
council
closer
to
the
aspirational
goal
of
achieving
zero
waste
to
landfill.
The
purpose
of
this
report
is
for
council
to
consider
endorsing
the
grim
bank
waste
recycling,
a
litter
strategy,
draft
community
report
card
for
2019-20,
which
add
attachment
one
to
the
report.
R
I
It
is
a
major
problem
and
most
of
this
recyclable
fermented
plastics
and
lust
to
the
food
and
we
get
terrain.
Reducing
the
landfill
is
certicle
to
do
this.
We
need
to
recycle
more
and
to
always
be
aware
of
the
amount
of
material
product
and
package
we
are
concerning
this
report.
Casual
ring
bank
is
making
a
difference
of
reducing
waste,
increasing
composting,
increasing
reselling
and
creating
a
leaner
ringing
and
more
sustainable
environment
for
greenbank
into
the
future
to
not
feel
highly.
I
I
commend
this
report
to
the
council,
but
I
would
like
to
add
something
that
we
have.
The
communist
collection
pathway
is
about
18426
and
the
option
to
pay
option
for
the
collection.
Housework
is
about
1180,
we
improve
online
booking
service
and
I
just
would
like
to
remind
a
member
in
the
community.
I
I
O
You
madame
just
some
brief
comments.
We
adopted
back
in
2018
the
waste
management
strategy,
which
was
a
great
and
we
all
expected
as
councillors.
We
are
very
much
interested
in
waste,
it's
one
of
our
big
functions
and
we
thought
we'd
simply
get
on
with
the
strategy
and-
and
it
quickly
became
incredibly
complex
and
thank
you,
I
think,
to
the
director
neil
whiteside
and
councillor
truong
in.
N
O
A
A
R
Thank
you
very
much,
madam
mayor.
The
purpose
of
this
report
is
for
council
to
consider
adopting
the
final
draft
car
parking
management
plans
for
sunshine
and
sonorans
activity
centers
at
attachment
one
and
attachment
two
to
the
report
and
also
the
final
draft
parking
permit
policy
at
attachment
3
following
the
six
weeks
of
community
consultation,
the
consultation
on
the
draft
plans
and
draft
policy
commenced
on
the
22nd
of
may
and
closed
on
the
3rd
of
july.
This
year,
council
received
32
written
submissions
on
the
final
draft
car
park
management
plans.
R
R
now,
given
the
need
to
raise
awareness
of
the
plans
in
the
policy
subject
to
obviously
council's
adoption
tonight,
along
with
ordering
an
installation
of
required,
signage,
is
proposed
that
the
implementation
of
the
plan
and
policies
comes
into
effect
from
the
1st
of
july
2021..
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
A
O
Yes,
yes,
thank
you,
madam
mayor,
first
of
all
to
thank
the
council
of
the
neil
whiteside,
the
director
of
infrastructure
and
all
these
staff
involved
in
what
was
a
massive
exercise,
a
massive
body
of
work
to
go
through
right
from
the
very
start
of
this
council
four
years
ago.
We're
all
quite
concerned
about
the
parking
issues
across
the
municipality
and
in
our
shopping
centres
and,
of
course,
the
impact
on
the
adjoining
residential
areas,
and
this
was
very
much
a
comp.
O
O
The
the
number
of
submissions
involved
indicated
also
that
there
was
a
great
deal
of
community
interest
which
just
wouldn't
surprise
any
of
us.
So
it
is,
I
think,
a
great
thing
to
be
handing
on
to
the
next
council
this
policy
to
proceed
forward,
and
I
also
appreciate
that
right
at
the
moment,
with
covert
that
there
is
just
yet
again
another
complication
and,
as
we
pull
out
of
that,
many
of
these
issues
are
going
to
resurface
again.
A
A
C
A

E
A
D
D
Indeed,
brimbank
proudly
supports
some
of
the
last
urban
populations
of
grassland
endangered
species
and
communities.
Brimbank
residents
recognize
and
value
of
remaining
wild
spaces
and
areas
where
they
can
connect
with
nature.
The
social
and
health
benefits
of
natural
assets
are
recognized
as
significantly
contributing
to
the
health
and
well-being
of
our
communities.
D
A
vego
rip
report
released
in
june
2020
highlighted
the
failings
of
the
victorian
government
in
establishing
two
grassland
reserves
to
offset
native
vegetation
and
habitat
lost
to
development
in
melbourne.
Further,
the
independent
review
of
the
federal
epbc
act,
of
which
council
provided
a
submission,
has
highlighted
continued
failings
in
the
management
and
protection
of
our
biodiversity.
D
Brimbank's.
Recent
submission
to
the
victorian
parliamentary
inquiry
into
ecosystem
decline
outlines
council's
concern
over
threats
to
ecosystems,
both
within
the
municipality
and
across
the
state.
A
responsible
approach
to
the
protection
and
management
of
biodiversity,
including
grassy
ecosystems
in
melbourne's
west,
is
urgently
required
within
brimbank
and
across
victoria.
This
approach
must
include
stricter.
There
states
2017,
permitted
clearance
regulations,
including
the
requirement
to
demonstrate
etiquette
avoidance
and
minimization
as
a
first
step
for
all
development
proposals
and
to
ensure
land
subject
to
development
is
surveyed.
G
A
Thank
you.
Are
there
any
other
counselors
that
would
like
to
make
a
comment?
Okay,
I'll
put
it
to
a
vote,
all
those
in
favor
against
carried.
Thank
you
councillor
ball
for
bringing
that
to
our
attention.
Thank
you
all
right,
13.2,
colder,
freeway,
colder
park,
drive,
interchange,
colder
park,
drive
level
crossing
removal
and
new
calder
park
station.
O
If
delivered,
this
station
would
have
the
potential
to
operate
as
a
regional
park
and
ride
facility
and
alleviate
existing
demand
for
car
parking
currently
experienced
at
water
garden
station
collectively.
The
above
projects
have
the
potential
to
provide
a
broad
range
of
transport
and
mobility
improvements
for
brimbank
and
the
western
metropolitan
region.
C
Yes,
thank
you,
madam
mayor.
I
I
do
support
the
the
notice
of
motion
from
councillor
lancashire.
It
is
a
very
important
one,
and
I
remember
and
councillor
david
would
remember
that
in
2007,
when
I
was
the
mayor,
I
led
a
delegation
to
canberra
to
speak
to
the
then
federal
minister
for
rhodes,
asking
that
they're
called
a
freeway.
They
call
the
park.
Interchange
be
done,
that
the
sunshine
avenue
interchange
be
done
and
the
king's
road
interchange
be
done
subsequent
to
that.
C
The
king's
road
interchange
was
then
announced
in
the
budget,
we're
still
waiting
on
calder
park
and
we're
still
waiting
on
sunshine
avenue.
So
it's
been
a
long
time
coming,
and
I
know
that
councils
every
year
have
been
asking
and
asking
and
asking
that
this
be
done.
It
is
a
very,
very
important
piece
of
road.
The
development,
of
course
in
2007,
wasn't
as
great
as
it
is
now
residentially.
C
There
are
a
lot
more
homes.
Now.
The
amenity,
of
course,
with
the
road
being
closed
to
go
into
the
freeway,
is
also
very
difficult
at
the
moment
too.
So
it's
a
bit
of
a
dangerous
spot,
so
I
definitely
support
council,
lancashire's
notice
of
motion
and,
of
course
endorse
that
we
ask
also
melton
council
to
come
on
board
with
us
on
that
on
that
infrastructure
as
well.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you
for
that
any
other
councillors
that
would
like
to
speak
to
this
notice.
Emotion,
okay,
I'll
put
it
to
a
vote
all
those
in
favor
against
carried
and
counsellor
lancashire.
Thank
you
for
bringing
this
up
again.
It's
it's
been
a
long
awaiting
project
or
projects.
I
should
say
thank
you.
13.3
update
on
the
deer
park,
rail
corridor
level,
crossing
removal
projects.
A
G
You,
madam
mayor,
yes,
this
one's
self-explanatory.
Looking
for
updates
on
the
deepak
rail
corridor
level,
crossing
removal
projects,
we
all
know
the
campaign
that
went
on
previously,
that
was
successful
and
the
government.
The
state
government
has
come
forward
with
the
three-level
crossings
along
the
corridor.
G
We
know
that
there
are
some
significant
ones
and
we
know
that
there
are
some
conversations
about
what's
what's
best,
what's
best
practice
and
what
needs
to
happen
next.
That
council
needs
to
be
involved
in
so
that
is
part.
A
of
the
motion.
Part
b
is
the
council
receives
a
further
briefing
and
report
from
council
itself
on
the
negotiating
position
being
adopted
by
council
on
behalf
of
residents
in
negotiations
with
the
state
government
and
the
authority
on
matters
associated
with
the
project
at
fitzgerald.
G
Road
such
as
I've
got
474,
which
will
be
274
forest
street
side.
The
fertile
road
realignment
underpass
option.
We
have
an
overpass
which
is
basically
going
through
the
middle
of
this
274
forestry
site,
which
is
an
open
space,
biodiversity
linking
into
the
rdu
wetlands
and
one
that's
very
valued,
hardly
highly
by
a
large
number
of
residents
from
west
sunshine
and
from
rdm.
G
We
have
problems
with
boundaries.
We
have
one
one
boundary
being
the
member
for
footscray
and
one
and
on
the
other
side
of
the
boundary,
the
members
in
auburn's.
Looking
after
the
rda
residents,
we
have
all
sorts
of
options,
but
all
sorts
of
issues
that
need
discussing
about
how
residents
do
advocate
for
things
with
whom
and
so
on.
But
we
have
mainly
a
lot
of
transport
matters.
There
are
conversations
about
moving
the
virtual
road
to
the
east,
a
little
bit
to
allow
for
undergrounding.
G
If
that's
an
option,
we
need
to
talk
about
all
those
sort
of
things
with
the
council
and
get
a
briefing
from
the
council
offices
and
all
that,
but,
more
importantly,
on
all
the
environmental
issues
and
noise
and
various
other
issues
that
are
coming
forward
out
of
this
consultation
process.
And
where
do
we
stand?
Where
do
communities
stand
on
this?
How
do
we
determine
the
priorities
for
274
coral
street?
Is
it
for
a
a
bike
track,
a
bike
facility?
Is
it
for
open
space?
What
is
it
and.
G
Clear
at
the
moment,
so
lots
of
conflicts
and
lots
of
issues
so
conversation's
the
best
way
to
resolve
them.
That's
what
promotion's
all
about
put
it
to
to
councils
on
that
basis,
but
c
is
really
also
about
making
sure
the
community
and
residents
affected
provided
with
regular
untimely
information
from
council
and
various
other
parties.
Thank
you
very
much.
D
Just
briefly,
madame,
I
think
councillor
heritage
covered
it
very
well
just
simply
want
to
say
that
this
is
a
matter
that
is
causing
a
lot
of
anxiety
and
concerns
among
a
number
amongst
members
of
the
community
and
as
such,
it's
important
that
council
considers
these
concerns
and
take
appropriate
action.
A
report
and
a
briefing
from
the
level
crossing
authority
would
be
appropriate.
D
So
is
the
request
to
have
a
further
briefing
and
report
from
council
on
the
negotiating
position
being
adopted
by
council
with
regards
to
the
matter
in
question,
and
of
course,
it's
also
important
to
keep
the
community
informed.
I
would
like
to
thank
councillor
herji
herdich
for
moving
this
motion.
Thank
you.
A
F
Thank
you,
madame
a
conscious
of
time.
It
was
always
a
wishful
thing
in
madame
air
to
have
the
the
level
crossing
underground.
It's
no
doubt
about
it.
That's
the
that
was
the
first
option
by
all
concerned
and
to
me
looking
at
the
new
plans,
I
think
it
might
cost
them
a
lot
more
money
to
put
in
reference
to
level
question
there
than
having
to
go
underground.
