REPORTS 7.1 LOCAL GOVERNMENT REFORM - WESTERN SUBURBS SUMMARY: To consider a response to the State Government's proposal for Council mergers in the metropolitan area and specifically, the proposal to form one local government in the western suburbs including the Town of Cambridge. The Councils in the western suburbs have indicated they are opposed to one council being created in this area. An alternative model that is expected to be more acceptable to our communities is two councils in the western suburbs. This report proposes that the City of Subiaco is invited to discuss the possibility of creating a single council to be part of the two council solution in the western suburbs. BACKGROUND: The Metropolitan Local Government Review Panel (Robson Report) was completed in mid 2012 and contained 30 recommendations concerning the future structure and governance arrangements for local governments in the metropolitan area. The Robson Report and its recommendations was released for comment until 5 April 2013 after the State Government elections held in March 2013. Recommendation 15(c) of the Robson Report proposed a reduction in the number of Councils in the Perth metropolitan area from 30 to 12. As part of this recommendation, it was proposed that the Town of Cambridge would be amalgamated into a new Western Suburbs Council combining seven local governments being Cambridge, Subiaco, Nedlands, Claremont, Mosman Park, Cottesloe and Peppermint Grove. The Town of Cambridge responded to this proposal by endorsing an alternative three Council model in the Western Suburbs and that model be formally submitted to the Local Government Advisory Board which was done in late June 2013. The State Government responded to the recommendations of the Robson Report at a briefing held with metropolitan Mayors and CEOs on Tuesday, 30 July 2013. A copy of the government response to the recommendations is attached. In relation to the number of Councils in the metropolitan area, the government has proposed to decrease the current number from 30 to 14. Under this model, Joondalup, Wanneroo and Rockingham would not be affected. Perth and Stirling will not be part of a merger but will have their boundaries adjusted. The remaining 25 councils are proposed to be involved in a merger creating nine new local governments. The merger proposals are detailed in the table below: H:\Ceo\Gov\Council Minutes\13 MINUTES\Special Council 13 August 2013.docx 2 SPECIAL MEETING OF COUNCIL MONDAY 13 AUGUST 2013 Area/Councils Population Population 2015 2026 1.

South Perth/Victoria Park 88,000 100,000 As detailed above, Cambridge is proposed to be included in a new Western Suburbs Council with a population of approximately 113,000. The key points and timeframe for the State Government's proposal are: • 14 Councils modelled on around 100,000 population, but not all the same size. • Poll Provisions to be removed to prevent residents from voting against amalgamations - this requires changes to legislation. • Councils to put in boundary merger proposals consistent with the Government's plan by 4 October 2013. • If a merger proposal is not submitted or different from the Government's plan the Minister will submit the merger proposal. • Local Government Advisory Board to review proposals commencing December 2013 and make recommendations to the Minister by August 2014. • Minister decides on new merged councils and recommends the Governor makes an order to be issued in late August 2014. • New Councils come into being on 1 July 2015. • Commissioners appointed from July 2015. • Elections for new councils in October 2015. DETAILS: The proposed changes to local government in the metropolitan area are significant in scale. There are only a few councils not affected by the Government's proposal. All the new Councils will be large, with populations expected to be more than 100,000 in just over 10 years, with some councils being considerably more. It is proposed that Cambridge be merged with the six western suburbs councils being the largest number of councils being combined (seven into one). All the other merger proposals (with the exception of Fremantle, East Fremantle and Melville) are based on two council mergers. There is a higher level of complexity bringing together seven organisations with respect to the differing communities, organisation culture, rating and charging regimes, staffing as well as the business systems. The challenge presented of combining these organisations into one should not be underestimated. H:\Ceo\Gov\Council Minutes\13 MINUTES\Special Council 13 August 2013.docx 3 SPECIAL MEETING OF COUNCIL MONDAY 13 AUGUST 2013 The Town of Cambridge has consistently differentiated itself from the western suburbs; however, the proposal announced by the State Government firmly places the Town of Cambridge within that grouping. It should be noted that the other Councils in the western suburbs do not support being merged into one local government. A meeting of Mayors and CEO's was held on Wednesday, 7 August 2013 to discuss the government's proposal and the following was decided at the meeting: "The Mayors of Cambridge, Claremont, Cottesloe, Mosman Park, Nedlands, Peppermint Grove and Subiaco, have met to discuss the implications of the Government's proposal for a G7 amalgamation and unanimously agreed that:- 1. We do not agree with the G7 proposal being forced on our communities; 2. We oppose the removal or dilution of the Dadour Poll provision in the Local Government Act; and 3. We will now talk to our respective Councils about developing an alternative model that may be acceptable to our communities and the Government." With respect to the third decision to consider an alternative model, it is suggested that two councils in the western suburbs based on a north council (Cambridge and Subiaco) and a south council (Nedlands, Claremont, Cottesloe and Peppermint Grove) would be a more acceptable outcome for our communities. Whilst the Town previously submitted a three council model for the western suburbs to the Local Government Advisory Board, it is considered that the scale of the Government's plans to amalgamate councils across the metropolitan area with populations around 100,000 has superceded that proposal. The three council model would result in the western suburbs councils having populations of 34,000 to 42,000. It is now considered that the population sizes based on that model would not be large enough to be acceptable to the Government. Therefore, if the Town is to propose any alternative to the Government to avoid one council in the western suburbs, a more acceptable outcome would be for two councils. Under a two council model, the Town would be combined with City of Subiaco and that part of the City of Stirling as proposed in the State Government's merger proposal ie Wembley Downs, Churchlands and part of Woodlands as well as Herdsman and that part of Wembley currently not in the Town of Cambridge. The southern council would include the remaining five western suburbs councils. The population of these two councils would be about 55,000 to 60,000 each. To commence the process, it is proposed that the Town formally invite the City of Subiaco to discuss the possibility of creating a single council. It is also proposed that the seven western suburbs councils consider a joint approach to submitting an alternate plan to the Local Government Advisory Board. Once that is done, it is up to the Minister for Local Government to decide whether or not to submit the Government's proposal for one council in the western suburbs to the Local Government Advisory Board. POLICY/STATUTORY IMPLICATIONS: The Government's response to the Robson Report proposes significant restructuring of local governments by reducing the number of councils in the metropolitan area to 14. H:\Ceo\Gov\Council Minutes\13 MINUTES\Special Council 13 August 2013.docx 4 SPECIAL MEETING OF COUNCIL MONDAY 13 AUGUST 2013 Currently, Schedule 2.1 of the Local Government Act 1995 provides poll provisions that could provide the community with an opportunity to vote on any proposed amalgamation.

    Hon Sue Ellery MLC Minister for Education and Training Leader of the Legislative Council Your Ref Petition No 5 Our Ref 61-03496 Hon Matthew Swmboum MLC Chair Standing Committee on Environment and Public Affairs Legislative Council Committee Office Parliament House 4 Harvest Terrace WEST PERTH WA 6005 Thank you for your letter dated 17 August 2017 regarding Petition No 5 - Oppose central education plan for Perth Modern School. I am pleased to provide comment on the terms of the petition and the submissions from the principal petitioner and tabling member as requested. 1. Whether the decision to build a new school at Kitchener Park appropriately addresses the significant growth in demand for places at secondary schools in the western suburbs The Government s decision to build Inner City College (planning name) in Subiaco - combined with current works at Churchlands Senior High School and Shenton College, and works in the future at Mount Lawley Senior High School - clearly addresses the significant growth in demand for places at secondary schools in the inner and western suburbs of Perth. Inner City College will be built on Kitchener Park, the grassed area located next to Subiaco Oval currently being used as a car park. Due to significant growth in student numbers in nearby suburbs, the location of the new local- intake school in Subiaco will provide enrolment relief for Churchlands Senior High School, Shenton College and Mount Lawley Senior High School Student enrolment projections show that growth is closer to the central business district than the coast This is mainly due to future population growth on the coast being limited because the coastal strip to the north and south of City Beach has restrictions on the subdivision of land, and because there is a significant number of parks and green spaces in City Beach.
