ITEM 5 PEDESTRIAN, CYCLING AND TRAFFIC CALMING COMMITTEE - FUNCTION, MEMBERSHIP, ELECTION OF CHAIRPERSON

FILE NO: S062388

MEMORANDUM BY THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

To Council:

The Pedestrian, Cycling and Traffic Calming (PCTC) Committee is a Statutory Committee, established under the Roads Act and in accordance with administrative procedures required by Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) (formerly the Roads and Traffic Authority).

Councils have been delegated certain powers from RMS regarding the regulation of traffic on local roads. A condition of this delegation is that councils must take into account the advice of their PCTC Committee before exercising these powers.

The PCTC Committee itself, however, has no decision-making powers. It is primarily a technical review body which is required to advise Council and Council staff on traffic related matters. Council and Council staff are not therefore bound or required to implement a proposal supported by the PCTC Committee. Any proposal supported by the PCTC Committee must be approved by either the elected Council or authorised Council staff (depending on the nature of the proposal) if it is to be implemented. This can only be done when the advice of the Committee is unanimous. Where the advice of the Committee is not unanimous, Council must separately notify and obtain the endorsement from RMS and the NSW Police force.

Membership of the PCTC Committee, as required by RMS delegation, is four formal (voting) representatives, one from each of the following:

• Council (Chairperson);

• Police Service;

• Roads and Maritime Services; and

• Local Members of Parliament or their nominee.

Note: Representatives of the NSW Police Force and representatives of State MPs can only vote on issues in their command or electorate respectively.

The Chairperson and alternate Chairperson are to be determined by Council, and Council’s representative may be any Councillor or Council officer. Council (in consultation with the formal members of the PCTC Committee) may also decide to have additional informal (non-voting) advisors who can provide non-binding input into the deliberation process.

The adopted Terms of Reference for the Sydney PCTC include informal (non-voting) representatives from each of the following:

• State Transit Authority;

• Transport Workers’ Union;

Friday 21 September 2012 938

• Sydney Harbour Foreshore Authority; and

• a cycling representative appointed by the Lord Mayor.

Council staff convene meetings and provide administrative support for the Committee, including the preparation of agendas, reports and minutes, and formally represent Council when both the Chairperson and the alternate are absent. Council is now required to elect the Chairperson and alternate.

RECOMMENDATION

It is resolved that:

(A) the existing Functions, Policies and Procedures of the Pedestrian, Cycling and Traffic (PCTC) Committee, as contained in Attachment A to the subject Memorandum, be endorsed and adopted;

FILE NO: S044803

MEMORANDUM BY THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

To Council:

On 5 December 2011, Council adopted a Schedule of Meetings and Briefings for 2012.

The Chair (the Lord Mayor) then moved her foreshadowed motion, seconded by Councillor Kok, as follows -

It is resolved that Council:

(A) submit a Section 73A Environmental Planning and Assessment Act Submission to the Department of Planning and Infrastructure for a minor amendment to clause 52A(8) of Sydney Local Environmental Plan 2005 to correct an obvious error, for the following reasons:

(i) the meaning of block 2 in clause 52A(8) of Sydney Local Environmental Plan 2005 erroneously omits Lot 1 DP 913005;

(ii) the omission of Lot 1 DP 913005 from block 2 negatively affects the favourable determination of development application D/2012/893 which, in part, seeks additional height permitted by clause 52A of Sydney Local Environmental Plan 2005 within the site bound by Alfred, Pitt, Dalley and George Streets (the ‘APDG’ Block); and

(iii) the minor amendment will correct the meaning of block 2 in clause 52A(8) of Sydney Local Environmental Plan 2005, and falls within the ambit of section 73A(1)(a) of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979, as it aims to correct an obvious error consisting of a misdescription in the principal instrument; and

(B) endorse a section 73A amendment to insert Lot 1 DP 913005 into the meaning of block 2 in clause 52A(8) of Sydney Local Environmental Plan 2005.

The motion moved by the Chair (the Lord Mayor) was carried on the following show of hands -
