A
A
Energy
committee
meeting
the
Thursday
11th
of
May
everybody's
in
attendance
and
we
welcome
visiting
councilors
councilor
Owen
Jones,
councilor
Pauline,
young
and
councilor
Gates.
Thank
you.
We've
got
no
leave
of
absence
if
anybody's.
If
everybody's
in
agreeance,
we
might
start
the
confirmation
of
minutes
for
the
last
meeting
unless
there's
any
corrections
that
anyone's
got.
No,
that's
fine,
any
conflict
of
interest
declarations.
I,
don't
think
there
is
any!
No
that's
all
right.
We
have
another
start
item
5.1
and
that's
just
the
forward
planning
schedule.
A
B
Oh
apologies,
foreign
thank
you,
Madam,
chair
council
is
just
introducing
for
those
who
haven't
met,
Josh
and
I.
Think
most
of
you
will
have
before
who's
our
executive
coordinator
for
waste
management
to
talk
us
through
the
first
paper
there,
which
is
the
southern
trial
of
the
public
place
recycling.
C
Okay,
thank
you.
Chair
for
the
introduction,
thanks
Chris
starting
November
last
year,
cancel
resolve
that
we
should
undertake
a
PPR
trial
in
the
southern
portion
of
the
Gold
Coast
between
durian
bar
and
Palm
Beach.
So
the
recommendation
or
the
resolution
was
that
we
Implement
that
before
Christmas,
which
we
managed
to
do
in
conjunction
with
City
cleaning.
In
the
end,
we
managed
to
implement
50
new
PPR,
bins
between
point
danger
and
Burleigh
heads.
They
were
serviced
four
times
a
week
by
City
cleaning
and
water
and
waste
undertook
several
audits
for
contamination.
C
So
some
of
the
key
results
we
collected
approximately
500
kilos
of
recyclables
per
week.
A
lot
of
the
primary
primary
materials
were
collected
were
pizza
boxes,
other
paper
and
coffee
cup
lids.
A
lot
of
the
CRS
or
containers
were
removed
by
some
enterprising
individuals
along
the
PPR
expansion
area.
So
a
lot
of
those
people
would
get
in
there
before
City
cleaning
would
come
along
each
morning.
C
A
Can
I
just
ask
something
Josh
before
we
get
on
to
the
next
slide,
I've
noticed
in
my
area
and
I,
don't
know
if
the
other
councils
have
done
it
officially
on
the
foreshore.
Some
of
these
individuals
seem
to
have
some
sort
of
key
Implement
that
can
get
into
the
into
the
the
enclosures
of
the
bins
right.
C
C
C
C
A
D
Council
so
two
things
one
is
just
in
regards
to
the
standardization
of
design,
given
the
fact
that
all
of
the
our
Fleet
of
household
bins
are
red
tops.
Do
you
think
that
it
makes
sense
that
we
have
read
in
the
color
scheme
so
see
how
you
got
that
I
understand
the
yellow,
but
do
you
think
it
would
help
if
we
add
red.
C
C
D
B
Expand
so,
for
example,
in
our
green
organic
spins,
there
will
be
a
QR
code
on
the
top
of
those
ones
which
allows
us
the
people
who
do
use
it.
Our
focus
groups
suggest
less
people
use
it
than
I
would
have
hoped,
based
on
our
covert
experience,
and
everyone
should
be
quite
familiar
with
them
there,
but
nonetheless
on
our
green
Organics,
bins
that
we're
rolling
up
at
77
000,
which
start
rolling
out
on
the
first
of
July,
we'll
have
a
QR
code
on
them
which
takes
it
back
to
our
website.
B
So
if
the
contents
of
those
bins
change,
for
example,
if
we
do
go
to
Fogo
in
the
coming
years,
then
we
can
change
that
home
page
without
permanently
branding
those
bins
for
just
Garden
waste.
If
you
like,
when
that
may
change,
that
same
philosophy
with
these
types
of
bins
as
well,
is
something
we
would
like
to
pursue
and
with
the
color
coding,
I
think
that's
absolutely
important.
B
I
think
one
thing
we
have
really
or
a
few
things
we've
learned
from
the
exercise
in
in
the
south
is
that,
based
on
the
contamination,
the
volumes
the
Strategic
driver
for
having
those
bins
in
place
is
not
what
we're
recovering
from
them.
It
is
about
setting
a
standard
and
walking
the
talk.
If
we're
not
willing
to
be
seen
as
doing
this
as
a
city,
then
it's
harder
for
our
behavioral
change
programs
to
leverage
off
that
to
get
people
to
do
both
in
public
and
at
home.
B
What
we'd
like
them
to
do
as
an
extension
of
that
the
standardization
is
that
linked
to
back
to
their
household
bins
when
they
see
yellow
they
know
what
to
do
when
they
say
red,
they
know
what
to
do
and
the
more
education
and
tools
we
give
them,
including
QR
codes.
It
forms
part
of
that,
in
my
view,
thank
you.
E
C
C
C
B
You
get
that
first
yeah,
no,
it's
actually
in
in
there,
so
the
cost
of
the
bins
in
the
sticker
installation.
So
the
setup
was
just
under
15
000.,
the
capital
cost
and
obviously
there's
a
service
cost.
That
goes
with
that.
But
we
did
find
in
that
case
that
the
routes
that
the
city
cleaning
were
operating
meant
they
didn't
need
to
put
on
additional
trucks.
They
could
use
some
capacity.
G
So
I'll
just
make
a
comment
that,
like
I'll,
support
the
trial
and
support
the
expansion,
but
I'll
often
put
in
a
request
for
a
bin
in
a
park
where
people
are
saying,
there's
rubbish
everywhere
and
it
just
gets
refused.
No,
we
can't
put
them
in
there.
We
won't
put
him
in
there
I'll
ask
again:
no,
we
won't,
and
it's
really
frustrating
that
in
some
places
we
can't
get
a
bin
at
all
and
here
we're
providing
almost
a
superiors.
Well,
it
isn't.
Almost
it
is
a
superior
level
of
service.
It
seems
unfair.
G
I
was
going
to
ask
a
question
about
the
introduction
of
a
QR
code
or
something
like
that
to
tell
people
what
can
be
recycled
and
I
think
that
Point's
been
well
made.
Yes,
there
certainly
is
a
lot
of
confusion.
I
mean
we
talk.
We
hear
about
soft
Plastics.
Nobody
really
knows
what
soft
Plastics
is.
Is
that
just
the
wrapping
or
is
it
the
container
and
the
coffee
cups
I'm,
not
sure
what
you're
anticipating
you
might
be
able
to
do
with
local
businesses?
Can
you
give
me
some
idea.
B
I'm,
mad
I'm
sure
I
can
talk
to
a
couple
of
points
there.
One
of
our
ongoing
frustrations
is
that
education
piece
and
the
behavioral
piece
the
city
has
got
a
pretty
good
record
of
providing
everything
and
more
that
we
can
when
it
comes
to
the
education.
So,
for
example,
the
recyclopedia
that
we
spoke
about
over
in
previous
committee
sessions
where
people
at
the
City
app
it's
all
there.
You
know
you
can
search
whatever
you've
got
in
your
hand,
and
it
can
it
tells
you
exactly
what
to
do
with
it.
That's
on
our
website
as
well.
B
B
We
do
find
in
focus
groups
when
we
ask
about
what
do
you
recycle
so?
Can
we
play
a
couple
of
games
with
people
in
terms
of
what
they
think
goes
where
there
is
confirmed,
confusion
in
the
in
the
community
about
what
does
go?
Where
and
and
and
a
request
to,
keep
providing
that
information
and
our
response
in
the
city
has
been,
we've
provided
lots
of
different
information
in
lots
of
different
ways,
but
we
do
understand
that
we
do
need
to
keep
reinforcing
that.
We
have
worked
with
the
media.
B
We've
found
that
channel
9
and
channel
7
over
the
last
two
to
three
years
have
been
quite
helpful
and
we've
done
a
couple
of
pieces
with
them
where
the
journalists
will
take
on
this
one,
and
we
have
that
ongoing
conversation
with
a
couple
of
our
media
Outlets
to
load
them
up
with
any
information
that
they
need
to
make
the
story
interesting.
But
it
will
need
to
be
a
conversation
and
all
sorts
of
a
portfolio
of
communications
approach
to
get
that
traction
until
it
becomes
deep
Habit
in
our
community.
A
I
think
you'll
find
too
that
the
primary
school
kids
have
actually
more
of
an
idea
than
the
adults,
because
I
know
when
we
went
to
Miami
school
through
the
Eco
Warrior
partnership
and
they
did
a
they'd
done.
A
a
recycling
audit
with
just
rubbish
State
found
in
and
around
the
school.
The
kids
knew
so
much
more.
You
know
and
they
knew
what
was
recyclable
and
what
wasn't
I've
got
councilor
toza,
followed
by
councilor
Hamill,
then
Council
young
Council,
McDonald.
F
C
Yes,
this.
This
is
just
an
example
of
of
some
signage,
we're
going
to
take
the
results
of
the
the
trial
and
use
that
to
inform
our
signage.
I
was
just
going
forward.
The
the
focus
groups
that
we
did
indicated
that
people
engage
more
with
symbols
and
and
pictures
rather
than
than
words.
So
that's
that's
something
we're
definitely
going
to
be
looking
at
going
forward
and
if
I
could
just
add
one
further
thing:
the
state
government's
running
through
Department
of
environment
and
science
Statewide
education
campaign.
F
F
B
B
We
will
need
to
work
with
City
cleaning
again
they
run
the
routines
and
trucks
and
have
the
capacities,
no
sorts
of
things
to
do
those
but
I'm
more
than
happy
to
have
some
nominations
thrown
in
there
for
us
to
take
to
City
cleaning
to
see
how
we
could
stage
something
and
budget
for
that.
Are
you
happy
for
it?
Yeah.
A
F
Even
you
know,
there's
even
the
odd
Park
I've
got
three
pizza
joints
in
my
three
pizza
joints
in
the
village
and
as
you
might
imagine,
people
get
pizza,
they
sit
in
the
park
and
then
it
just
goes
in
the
landfill
and
because
we
don't
have
an
option
and
Josh.
We've
had
pizza
in
Mantra
bar
doing
that
exact
thing,
and
then
we
don't
have
this
service.
So.
B
And
Madam
chair,
part
of
that
is
I.
Think
we
just
need
to
get
that
staging
right,
so
I
think
what
we
do
need
to
do
is
get
that
standard
bin
set
and
it
won't
necessarily
be
one
size
fits
all.
It'll
be
a
portfolio
bit
of
consistency.
So
if
you're
going
to
spend
that
money
putting
those
in
there
it
would
be,
it
would
be
helpful,
I
think
to
have
that
standard
set.
B
So
we
can,
then
all
the
new
ones
match
that
one
rather
than
trying
to
retrofit
but
again
I
think
it
is
important
that
we
do
go
down
this
path
and
certainly
I'd
welcome
some
nominations
around
that.
Do
you
just
want
to
receive
those
via
email
is
that
if
that
you're
comfortable
with
that
email
to
you.
A
H
The
report
talks
to
the
work,
that's
being
done
with
our
friends
in
park
and
rec
about
this
bin
standardization,
like
I
kind
of
find
a
bit
amazing
that
it's
even
a
discussion
like
it
just
get
on
with
it,
and
put
bloody
red
Frontage
on
this
stuff,
like
the
fact
that
it
might
fail
a
little
bit
quicker
over
higher
maintenance
costs,
like
the
community,
has
been
asking
for
this
for
years,
just
get
on
with
it.
So
the
report
mentions
that
that's
going
to
happen,
but
What's.
C
Through
the
chair,
yeah
we've
we've
got
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
budgeted
for
next
year
and
we're
working
towards
getting
something
started
early
in
the
next
financial
a
year
in
terms
of
getting
these
bin
enclosures
standardized
in
high
profile
places,
so
yeah
we're
we're
working
with
parks.
At
the
moment.
We
hope
to
get
that
over
the
line.
The
next
couple
of
weeks
Christy.
You
can
not
at
me
or
check
you.
Yes,
that's
yes,
so
yeah
we're
definitely
working
to
get
that
that
done
as
soon
as
possible.
All.
H
Right
is
part
of
that
to
ensure
that
the
Park
development
guidelines,
especially
when
it's
Parks
being
delivered
by
developers,
include
only
using
our
binset
instead
of
it
being
at
every
different
new
park
and
play
ring
and
delivered.
We
have
different
bins
with
different
configurations,
which
you
know
the
argument
then
comes
back.
Well,
it's
brand
new.
We
don't
want
to
replace
it
straight
away,
so
it
sits
there
for
10
years
without
matching
up
the
rest.
B
Absolutely
I
think
we
do
have
a
fleet
of
bins
out
there
that
will
have
a
life.
We
don't
want
to
pull
those
out
early,
but
the
sooner
we
get
those
into
those
standards
the
better
and
that's
with
with
that
standard
bin
set.
It's
not
necessarily
about
agreeing
on
a
design,
it's
actually
getting
those
mechanisms
locked
in
in
the
back
and
again
with
our
Parks
colleagues.
That's
our
goal
to
make
that
happen.
We
have
to
have
some
consistency.
H
H
C
H
That
needs
to
be
acknowledged
and
be
part
of
a
future
report
is
that
if
that
30
contamination
rate
continues,
we
will
pay
a
penalty
every
time
that
truck
goes
in
the
busy
and
at
some
stage
they'll
probably
turn
around
and
say,
don't
send
that
truck
here
anymore,
because
that
has
happened
before
so.
We're
gonna
have
to
have
some
kind
of
plan
about
the
deal
with
that
versus
what
could
happen?
H
And
then
we
look
silly
because
all
of
a
sudden,
we
don't
have
anywhere
to
take
these
public
place,
bins
that
and
the
recycled
materials
in
them
apart
from
landfill,
which
is
what
we
want
to
avoid.
I'm
gonna
I,
don't
know
if
there's
any
interest
in
exploring
if
there's
other
pre-treatment
options
of
a
other
some
other
kind
of
pre-treatment
before
it
goes
to
busy.
First,
to
look
at
that.
If
there's
a
small
scale,
social
Enterprise,
that
wants
to
become
a
Murph,
a
pre-treatment,
Murph
provider.
B
H
I'm
I'm
interested
in
the
coffee
cup
thing
like
there
is
a
lot
of
options
available
now
for
coffee
cups
that
can
be
recycled.
That's
obviously
not
an
area
that
we
can
Force
businesses
to
go
to,
but
would
there
be
any
interest
from
my
colleagues
on
Committee
of
maybe
adding
a
line
in
that
we
write
to
the
state
about
where
they
might
be
at
in
terms
of
compulsory
recyclable
or
compostable
coffee
cups
in
the
state
I've
seen
you
know,
they've
got
rid
of
plastic
straws,
so
we
got
rid
of
plastic
bags
at
shopping
centers.
H
Do
we
want
to
be
seen
to
be
taking
a
lead
as
a
city
and
saying,
like
maybe
it's
time
for
all
coffee
cups
that
are
used
in
this
state
to
be
either
recyclable
or
compostable?
Yes,
yeah
like
yeah,
it's
a
if
there's
an
interest
in
it.
I
think
it'd
be
a
practical
thing
to
put
on
there
that
risk
we're
trying
to
lead
things
or
trying
to
change
where
we're
at
with
public
place
recycling.
Why
not
have
a
four
and
we
send
a
letter
off
specifically
about
the
one
big
problem?
H
H
I
Education
then
was
everything's
going
to
recyclable
containers,
so
we
had
cardboard
boxes
for
food
and
and
all
that
sort
of
stuff,
so
people
just
presumed
so
I
think
that's
part
of
that's
an
education
thing
because
I
said
I'm,
not
quite
sure.
If
we
can,
you
know
some
of
these
cafes
and
that
order
a
hundred
thousand
coffee
cups
at
a
time
you're
not
going
to
get
them
to
check
the
current
stock
into
landfill
and
get
just
recyclable
ones.
I
So
I
think
that's
a
bit
of
a
thing
and
then
also
with
the
new
Bins
coming
in
it's
it's
and
I
did
notice
when
I
was
the
previous
counselor
in
in
division
with
Burley
point
and
also
with
my
carols,
and
that
now
up
at
North
Burley
is
that
especially
in
Burley
on
the
Christmas
carols,
the
general
public
wants
to
do
it.
You
know
that
they
had.
We
had
and
I've
got
photos
of
it
somewhere,
piles
of
Justin,
Lane
pizza
boxes,
stacked
beside
the
bin
and
and
requests
for,
recycle
bins
like
they
made.
J
J
K
Council
McDonald
thanks
Madam
chair,
look
I'm
pleased
that
they
are
have
been
in
store
because
we
did
have
a
lot
of
requests,
especially
at
Berlin
like
Council,
a
young
Mansion
I.
Don't
do
well.
I've
got
two
questions.
One
is
some
time
ago.
I
did
ask
for
a
sticker
that
could
be
put
on
the
best
side,
the
bin
listing
what
could
be
recycled.
K
You
know
when
they
wanted
to
know,
because
a
lot
of
people
won't
go
to
the
and
scan,
but
if
it's
on
the
side
of
the
bin-
and
they
just
have
a
look
they're
likely
to
to
throw
whatever's
in
there.
But
at
one
time
we
did
have
a
sticker
that
you
could
stick
on
the
side
of
the
the
bin
with
the
list
of
recyclables,
also
with
your
drink
containers,
whether
it
be
milk
or
water.
K
C
It's
a
good
way
to
reduce
you
know
the
volume
taken
up
in
your
your
bin,
squeeze
the
air
out
and
put
the
lid
back
on
for
beer
bottles.
For
example,
you've
got
your
your
glass
container
and
your
metal
top
the
the
murph's
generally
operate
with
a
trommel
which
is
like
a
spinning
cylinder
with
Holes
about
the
size
of
credit
cards.
So
a
lot
of
the
smaller
bottle
tops
will
just
fall
out
through
those
holes
and
go
to
the
waste
stream.
J
B
Through
the
chair,
I
think
that
just
shows
the
power
that
labeling
scheme,
because
that
does
need
to
mature
even
further
in
Australia
and
get
people
in
the
habit
of
realizing
that's
on
them
pretty
much
everything.
Now
it's
been
there
for
a
couple
of
years
now,
but
it
is
really
confusing,
because
that
that
lead
question
is
a
classic
one.
The
Coffee
Lid
is
a
classic
one
as
well,
and
it
is
part
of
our
messaging
is
saying.
B
A
Yeah
and
I
think
I
mean
there
is
a
coffee
coffee
place
in
turgen
when
they
actually
bought
the
coffee
shop.
They
actually
renamed
it
paper
comp
and
said
that
their
coffee
cups
are
recyclable.
The
whole
of
the
coffee
cup,
lid
and
and
the
coffee
gun
that,
but
that's
only
one
I
only
know
one
have
you
finished
your
questions
against
McDonald
councilor,
Orchestra.
L
L
F
L
Can't
get
they
don't
give
you
10
cents
back,
not
one.
No
I
said
yes,
I
said
yes,
but
you
can't
get
the
10
cents,
but
anyway,
I
have
another
more
important
question
of
10
cents.
It's
a
budgetary
question
because
you
know
how
much
I
so
I've,
actually
I've,
actually
I
see
that
you've
actually
spoken
in
here
about
the
the
cost
of
rolling
this
out
a
bit
further
and
and
obviously
with
that
cost
for
City
cleaning.
L
But
given
that
we've,
probably
all
got
somewhere,
I
mean
I've
got
Glennon
park,
for
instance
in
in
nerang
I,
don't
have
to
send
you
an
email
now
Josh,
so
there
we
go,
which
obviously
has
a
lot
of
activity
with
all
the
sports
clubs
there.
But
if
we
expand
too
far,
is
this
something
that
we're
going
to
need
to
address
in
the
budget?
Because
it's
getting
a
bit
late
to
do
that?
Isn't
it
because,
obviously
it's
going
to
have
impacts.
B
I'm,
a
perhaps
could
I
suggest
that
if
you
have
got
those
priority
areas
that
you
do
shoot
those
through
to
Josh
and
I,
I
think
what
we
need
to
come
back
to
you
with
the
program
of
these
and
priorities,
because
it
will
be
influenced
to
a
degree
by
The,
Collection
routine.
So,
for
example,
in
parts
of
the
city,
the
parks
are
serviced
by
JJ
Richards
contract
in
the
East,
the
city
at
present
by
Council
contracts.
B
So
if
I
Counsel
day
staff
and
Council
owned
trucks,
so
the
logistics
will
determine
potentially
what
that
priority
becomes
and
that
what
can
be
done
in
a
cost-effective
and
logistically
sort
of
sensible
way.
But
if
we
can
have
a
portfolio
to
rationally
work
through
that
and
come
back
to
you
as
well
as
recommendations
on
the
the
where
we've
got
to
with
the
the
bin
set
and
standardization
of
that
I
will
be
a
more
holistic
way
of
doing
it
for
you
and
we
use
the
budget.
A
E
Don't
mean
to
be
rude,
but
through
you,
I,
like
counselor
Peter
Young
would
hope
that
we
can
address
the
specific
concerns.
I've
had
one
club
going
for
six
months,
trying
to
get
an
extra
bin
because
they're
picking
up
the
rubbish,
because
the
people
are
using
the
Parkland
and
the
bin
of
the
club
and
there's
only
the
one
bin
and
I,
don't
know
if
it's
been
resolved.
E
I
I,
inserted
myself
into
it
only
recently
after
it
had
been
rejected
on
more
than
one
occasion
by
parks
that
a
bin
go
into
an
additional
bin,
go
in
where
there's
an
obvious
need,
and
it's
viney
Park,
and
it
was
kumara
soccer
club
in
case
you're.
Wondering
and
I
would
hope
that
we
could
address
those
sorts
of
issues
where
we've
got
waste
all
over
fields
because
of
a
a
general
waste
problem
in
an
area
and
I
appreciate.
E
G
B
The
chair
I
think
this
is
a
conversation
that
needs
to
occur
between
the
asset
custodian,
which
is
the
park
as
well
as
City,
cleaning
or
water
and
waste
to
run
the
JJ
Richards
contract.
So
I
know
that's
not
what
you
want
to
hear
in
terms
of
those
different
areas
there,
but
it
sounds
like
to
me.
A
coordinated
approach
is
really
required.
B
K
Thanks
Madam
chair
just
another
question,
saying
that
we
have
so
many
events
in
the
city
and
I
know
that,
like
with
netball-
and
you
know,
footy
and
Etc,
they
have
big
days
and
there's
thousands
attend
when
they
deliver
their
their
bins
yeah
because
they
usually
put
orders
in
for
bins.
Do
we
allocate
recycle
bins
in
that?
Or
is
it
just
straight
out
just.
A
J
C
I
Thank
you
through
the
chip.
I
can
just
make
a
comment
on
that
too,
especially
going
into
sporting
grounds,
and
things
like
that,
you
would
say
your
sporting
clubs
will
probably
support
having
that
yellow
bin
and
then
being
able
to
say
well.
We
can
collect
all
the
bottles
out
of
that
and
and
get
the
10
cents
on
each
bottle.
It
would
come
down
to
almost
like
a
fundraising
thing
toward
them.
C
J
C
I
G
G
A
Pretty
sure
that
Curly
Rock
sun
does
do
their
recycling
just
from
memory.
The
last
time
down
there
and
a
lot
of
the
music
events
and
surfing
events
that
are
run,
provide,
recycle
bins
as
well,
and
they
usually
put
that
in
their
application.
I
think
it
is
suggested
through
events
when
they,
when
they're
actually
approving
these
events,
that
they
do.
Look
at
that
favorably.

Well,
just
because
this
is
the
most
entertaining
committee,
the
flexor
skip
was
a
novel
scheme
that
the
council
supported
a
couple
years
ago,
and
it's
been
well
adopted
by
the
broader
community
and
this
decision,
if
it's
carried
by
Council,
will
ensure
that
the
service
continues
for
a
an
extended
period
and
the
conditions
of
that
will
be
determined
by
the
officers
to
the
satisfaction
of
the
CEO
and
we're
sure
that
it
will
continue
in
to
be
used
in
good
stead.
Thanks.
