1/1 State-Wide Heritage Survey within the Gympie Regional Council Area
Re: Minute: P02/05/09 State-Wide Heritage Survey within the Gympie Regional Council Area From: Acting Manager, Register & Strategic Projects, Cultural Heritage Branch, Department of Environment and Resource Management File: 6/6/11/0002 Date: 30 March 2009
“The State Government is undertaking a State-Wide heritage survey across Queensland to identify places of State heritage significance. This survey is being undertaken by teams of heritage officers from the Department of Environment and Resource Management (formerly Environmental Protection Agency). We are currently working in the Wide Bay Burnett Region and surveying the Gympie Regional Council area.
Members of the State-Wide heritage survey team met with Councillors of the Gympie Regional Council on Tuesday 24 March 2009 to report to Council on the progress of the survey in the region. Gympie Regional Councillors generously offered to partner with us for the survey of the former Tiaro and Kilkivan areas. From this joint survey we will generate lists of places of local heritage significance and State heritage significance. The local list will form the basis of possible places for the local heritage register for Gympie Regional Council and the state list will be assessed for possible entry in the Queensland Heritage Register. Strategic Planning Officer, Ric Halse, was nominated as out contact person.
I write to seek formal Council approval of this partnership and we look forward to working together for the conservation of Queensland’s heritage places”.
Report: (Strategic Planning Officer - R.N. Halse)
On Tuesday 24th March 2009 the former Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), now known as Department of Environment and Resource Management (DERM), made a presentation to Gympie Regional Councillors regarding the State-Wide heritage survey of the Kilkivan and Tiaro areas.
An offer was presented by DERM to collaborate with Gympie Regional Council. It was suggested that the state wide heritage survey would form part of the current Planning Scheme Study and also reduce duplication between the State and Local sectors. DERM now seeks formal approval of this partnership.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 5 -
P02/05/09 Moved: Cr A.J. Perrett Seconded: Cr R.A. Gâté
Recommend that Council approves the request from Department of Environment and Natural Resource Management to partner with Council for the survey of the former Tiaro and Kilkivan areas in relation to the state-wide heritage survey and liaise with the Acting Manager, Register & Strategic Projects, Cultural Heritage Branch regarding appropriate dates and meeting venues.

1/2 Relocation Options for Netball
Re: Minute: P03/05/09 Relocation Options for Netball From: Sport, Recreation and Parks Coordinating Committee File: 6/6/07/0003 Date: 21st April, 2009
Report: (Manager Strategic Planning – K.A. Rolfe)
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Council has previously requested a report investigating the feasibility of relocating the netball courts to Adrian McClintock Park. The matter of a masterplan for the reserve was to be referred to the 2009/2010 budget for consideration (refer Minute DB05/07/08).
Since that time the Sport Recreation and Parks Coordinating Committee has been investigating the above option and all others that have previously been suggested as possible sites for the courts.
Design Services and Works staff undertook preliminary designs and costings for the sites shown below to determine their comparative suitability.

Lot 1 MPH23160 – Tozer Park Rd, former Depot site and adjoining lots
2.0 OUTCOMES
After the initial discussions two of the sites were considered worthy of further investigation being Jaycees Park and the Tozer Park Depot site.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 10 -
The following characteristics make the depot site the most favourable:
* previously developed * flood free * cleared * located adjacent to the Gympie State High school * collocation with other recreation facilities including existing gymnastics clubhouse, future aquatic centre and potentially others, allowing shared use of facilities and parking areas * central location.
Issues for consideration include (but are not limited to):
* school parking requirements * integration with other approved uses in the vicinity * MRCCC lease * shared use of facilities.
3.0 PLANNING
Following consideration of all options proposed as potential relocation sites for the netball courts the Sport, Recreation and Parks Coordinating Committee resolved to recommend to Council that the former Tozer Park Depot site be endorsed as Council’s preferred option and that the site be planned as a multi- purpose precinct.
P03/05/09 Moved: Cr J. Watt Seconded: Cr R.A. Gâté
Recommend that Council endorses the Tozer Park Depot site as the preferred relocation site for the Gympie netball courts and proceeds with necessary planning and consultation activities to determine the ultimate layout for a multi-purpose recreational precinct.
Carried.

1/3 Wide Bay Burnett Regional Recreation and Sport Strategy
Re: Minute: P04/05/09 Wide Bay Burnett Regional Recreation and Sport Strategy From: Manager Strategic Planning File: 5/3/15/0001 Date: 29 April, 2009
Report: (Manager Strategic Planning – K.A. Rolfe)
1.0 INFORMATION WORKSHOP
Members of the Sport Recreation and Parks Coordinating Committee met with ROSS Planning on 29th April, 2009 to:
* review a list of regionally significant facilities as provided by DIP and provide further information for the list
* advise ROSS Planning on any proposed open space purchases relevant to the project
* advise on any land that is desirable for future sport and recreation at a regional level
* consider any local differences or issues
* inform of any local planning initiatives, particularly in regard to setting DSOS, open space classifications, open space characteristics (e.g. shape, size etc) or similar
* gather information on water courses and dams that are, or could be suited to water-based activities
* identify demands and plans for noisy (e.g. motorsport) or dangerous (e.g. shooting) activities.
The information from the meeting, coupled with the information from the document review will provide the starting point for the study.
2.0 DEFINITION OF REGIONAL
The following definition will be refined through the consultation process:
“A regional sport and recreation facility is one which regularly attracts participants from the whole (or most) of the Wide Bay Burnett area and possibly beyond. It may have specialist components which differentiate it from other facilities catering to the same activity.”
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 12 -
3.0 INSPECTIONS
After the workshop the consultants inspected the following facilities:
▪ Adrian McClintock Park ▪ Hockey grounds ▪ One Mile Ovals ▪ Albert Park ▪ Albert Bowling Club ▪ Tozer Park site.
The AFL grounds and the Kart track were on the list to inspect on their way back to Brisbane.
4.0 OTHER CONSULTATION
Gympie Regional Council is the first local government to be consulted during the process. Our issues were comprehensively covered.
The refined list of facilities in the GRC area deemed to be “regional” will be provided to Council in due course.

Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 14 -
KEY POINT SUMMARY • Application to establish a Food or Entertainment Venue (Restaurant) within the Housing Zone. • Application lodged for assessment against Cooloola Shire Council’s Planning Scheme 2005. • Property is Zoned Housing, for which a Food or Entertainment Venue is an ‘inconsistent’ use. • The development proposes to utilise the existing dwelling, extend to the south-east and remove an existing shed. • Sufficient planning grounds exist in order to consider the proposed development as an appropriate use of the site. • Conditions requiring landscaping, acoustic fencing and other noise attenuation measures should be imposed, in order to limit the impact on amenity for adjoining residential premises. • Proposed development incorporates a current GFA of 158.22m2 and the development proposes an extension of 85.78m2 GFA, resulting in a total GFA of 244m2. • Planning Scheme specifies 5.5 car spaces per 100m2 of GFA to be provided on site, which results in a requirement for 11 spaces based on the current proposal plans. • The proposal plan nominates a total of 5 car spaces on site, which results in a shortfall of 6 spaces and would likely result in unacceptable on-street parking along Alfred and Duke Streets. • All other aspects of the proposed development generally comply with the provisions of the Planning Scheme. • A revised layout, incorporating two-way traffic along the access driveway and car parking spaces provided on site at the rate of 5.5 car spaces per 100m2 GFA is required to be submitted. • MCU to Establish a Food or Entertainment Venue (Restaurant) recommended to be held over pending submission of a revised access and carparking layout.
Report: (Principal Planner – K.M. Toomey)
1.0 INTRODUCTION
This application seeks Council’s approval for a Material Change of Use – Food or Entertainment Venue (Restaurant) at 13 Alfred Street, Gympie. The proposal is to reuse an existing dwelling on site, extend to the south-east and remove an existing shed.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 15 -
1.1 The Site
The development site is located at 13 Alfred Street, Gympie, on the intersection of Alfred and Duke Streets. The site was formerly within the Local Government Area of Cooloola Shire.
The site has an area of 1012m2 and is a regular rectangular shaped allotment, with approximately 25 metres of frontage to Alfred Street and 40 metres of frontage to Duke Street. Duke Street is classified as an arterial road and is fully constructed to a double lane bitumen standard, complete with kerb and channel and a pedestrian pathway. Alfred Street is constructed to a 7 metre wide bitumen standard with kerb and channel. A pedestrian pathway has been constructed for an approved Professional Office (Naturopathic Clinic – DA00862) directly opposite the site in Alfred Street for approximately 25 metres and joins the Duke Street pathway.
The site is currently improved by a dwelling and shed. The site currently accesses Alfred Street, approximately 27 metres from its intersection with Duke Street.
The topography of the site slopes approximately 10% in a west to south-west direction towards Duke Street. Substantial earthworks and retaining of the site were previously undertaken in order to facilitate the construction of the existing building.
1.2 The Proposal
The proposal comprises a Material Change of Use to establish a Food or Entertainment Venue (Restaurant).
The applicant provides the following details in regards to the proposal:
“Our proposal is to renovate and use the existing building as a 100 seat restaurant after the addition of an under roof verandah, cold storage room and parking areas as per attached plans. The kitchen will remain where it is with one of the bedrooms converting to a bar and another used for restrooms. The existing roofline will be continued over the extension to preserve the character of the building.
The intended hours of operation are Wednesday to Saturday for lunch (noon to 1500 hours) and dinner (1800 to 2200 hours).”

2.0 STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS
2.1 Compliance with the Planning Scheme
2.1.1 Scheme Definition
Under the arrangements of the Cooloola Shire Council Planning Scheme 2005, Material Change of Use to establish a Food or Entertainment Venue (Restaurant) in the Housing Zone is “Code Assessable” development.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 21 -
2.1.2 Planning Scheme Provisions
The proposed development is considered to be an ‘Inconsistent Use’ within the Housing Zone and is assessable against the following codes outlined below.
Gympie Planning Area Code
Specific Outcome 1 of the Gympie Planning Area Code states that ‘the following defined uses are inconsistent uses and are not located in the Housing Zone: …j. food or entertainment venue.’
The proposed development is not able to meet this outcome, however, given the site’s close proximity to the Gympie central business district and allotments zoned Commercial (Showroom Preferred Use Area), as well as surrounding approved uses and proposed retention of the existing residential character, the proposal is considered to be an acceptable use of the site.
Specific Outcome 3 of the Gympie Planning Area Code states that ‘Uses are located and designed to avoid significant adverse changes to the acoustic environment of adjoining and surrounding premises.’
The applicant has provided a Noise Assessment Report which outlines a number of noise control measures to be incorporated to assist in controlling the potential noise impact associated with the development.
Noise control measures to be considered include:
• locating the refrigeration unit inside with the cold room; • selecting the quietest possible plant, particularly refrigeration unit and kitchen mechanical exhaust; • locate the plant as distant as possible from the closest residences to the south and east; • reduce plant noise by the erection of an acoustic barrier; • provide an acoustic enclosure for the plant.
All other aspects of the development are considered generally able to comply with the remainder of the outcomes sought from the Gympie Planning Area Code.
Erosion and Sediment Control Code
The development proposes to utilise the existing building on the site.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 22 -
Erosion and sediment control measures will be required for the extension, car parking and access arrangements. Suitable conditions can be imposed at the Building and Operational Works stages to ensure that the outcomes sought by the Erosion and Sediment Control Code are able to be met.
Infrastructure Works Code
Adequate infrastructure is available in order to appropriately service the proposed development.
Water and Sewerage Headworks charges apply to the development and a credit for the current use of the site, ie. dwelling house is also applicable.
All aspects of the development are considered generally able to comply with the outcomes sought from the Infrastructure Works Code.
Landscaping Code
Specific Outcome 1 of the Landscaping Code states that ‘Landscaping areas are located and designed to provide attractive streetscapes and their dimensions, the density of plants and the structure of plantings are sufficient to: a. screen premises from adjoining residential uses; or, b. soften the visual impact of large, tall or bulky structures and premises; or, c. provide shade and wind protection in, and increase the visual amenity of car parking areas.’
Landscaping has not been identified in detail on the proposal plans and a condition requiring landscape plans to be submitted for approval in accordance with Planning Scheme Policy 4: Landscape Plans and Plant Species should be included in any approval issued.
Vehicle Parking and Access Code
Specific Outcome 1 of the Vehicle Parking and Access Code states that ‘adequate parking is to be provided to meet the needs of occupants, employees, visitors and other users.’ Probable Solution 1(a) requires that ‘vehicle parking spaces are provided on-site in accordance with Schedule 10 Minimum Vehicle Parking Requirements’. Schedule 10 requires 5.5 spaces per 100m2 of GFA to be provided for a “Food or Entertainment Venue” involving the sale of food. The dwelling house which is to be converted to a restaurant has a current GFA of 158.22m2 and the development proposes an extension of 85.78m2 GFA, resulting in a total GFA of 244m2 and a requirement for 11 on-site car spaces.
The current proposal plan nominates four (4) car parking spaces in tandem along the eastern boundary of the site and one disabled car park on the Alfred Street (northern) frontage.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 23 -
Tandem parking spaces are not a preferred option for the development and the car parking layout should be amended prior to approval incorporating 11 car park spaces in the southern portion of the site and removing the tandem spaces along the eastern boundary.
The development proposes a 3.5 metre wide single access driveway from Alfred Street. The proposed driveway should be amended with the car parking layout to allow an uninterrupted path for vehicles entering and exiting the site, rather than queuing on the Street while vehicles park or exit the site.
A redesign of the proposed access driveway and carparking area should be required in order to allow for two-way traffic along the eastern boundary and adequate on-site parking along the rear of the site.
2.2 Local and/or State Planning Policies
No State Planning Policies are applicable.
3.0 PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS
3.1 Appropriateness of the Proposal
The establishment of a “Commercial Premises” is generally considered to be inappropriate within the Housing Zone. However, given the proposed re-use of an existing dwelling house, close proximity to the Gympie central business district and allotments zoned Commercial (Showroom Preferred Use Area), the proposal is considered to retain an acceptable level of residential character and is therefore an appropriate use of the site.
3.2 Impact on Amenity
No major amenity concerns are raised by the proposal given the utilisation of the existing building and noise mitigation measures as recommended by the supporting Noise Report. Conditions relating to landscaping and fencing will be required, in order to limit the impact on the adjacent residential premises.
3.3 Flooding
The site is not subject to inundation in a Q100 flood event.
3.4 Vegetation
Given that the site is zoned Housing the significance of any existing vegetation is not considered to be a relevant consideration.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 24 -
3.5 Site Contamination
This site is not listed on the Environmental Management Register.
4.0 CONSULTATION
4.1 Internal
a) Design Services Division
The Design Services Division has confirmed that the proposed access arrangements and carparking shortfall do not comply with the requirements of Council’s Planning Scheme. A redesign would benefit the development, to allow two-way traffic along the north-eastern boundary and the required number of car spaces, including manoeuvring areas, to be accommodated on site. A contribution towards road improvements, as a result of the increased traffic generated by this development, in accordance with Planning Scheme Policy 13 – Urban Road Contributions will also be applicable.
4.2 External
a) Public Notification
The application was determined to be “Code Assessable” only and as such was not required to be publicly notified. The Development Application was however, included within Council’s regular advertisement in the Gympie Times and no adverse submissions were received.
5.0 SUGGESTED REVISION OF DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL
A significantly improved solution is available for the proposed development site, which greatly improves functionality of the site, eliminates the need for motorists to park on Alfred and Duke Street (and as a result reduces an unnecessary safety risk to both vehicular and pedestrian traffic) and generally complies with the required outcomes sought by the Planning Scheme and relevant Australian Standards.
The proposed revision should include an amended layout to allow two-way traffic along the access driveway and accommodation of the required number of car spaces at the rear of the allotment. Note, that a reduction in the proposed GFA of the extension may be required in order to achieve the specified number of car spaces and adequate manoeuvring areas.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 25 -
6.0 CONCLUSION
The application proposes the conversion and extension of an existing building into Food or Entertainment Venue (Restaurant) within the Housing Zone. The site is in close proximity to existing Commercial land and mitigation measures are able to be conditioned in order to address any likely impacts on the amenity of nearby residences. The site fronts a heavily utilised arterial road and has convenient access to the central business area of Gympie.
Although the establishment of a “Food or Entertainment Venue” within a Housing Zone is identified as an “inconsistent” use under the provisions of the Cooloola Shire Planning Scheme 2005, sufficient planning grounds exist in order to support the proposed development as an appropriate use of the site.
However, given that the proposal’s access and parking arrangements, in their current configuration, are unable to comply with the requirements of Council’s Planning Scheme, a revised layout is recommended incorporating two-way traffic along the access driveway and the required number of car spaces, ie. 5.5 spaces per 100m2 GFA.
P06/05/09 Moved: Cr G.L. Engeman Seconded: Cr R.A. Gâté Formatted: Tabs: 70.9 pt, Left + Recommend that Council, as Assessment Manager, withhold a decision on 283.5 pt, Left Development Application 2008-01866 for Material Change of Use – Food or Entertainment Venue (Restaurant) on Lot 264 MCH4905 located at 13 Alfred Street, Gympie, pending the lodgement of an amended layout incorporating the following design elements:
(i) an access driveway able to accommodate two-way traffic and adequate manoeuvring areas as specified in Council’s Planning Scheme and the relevant Australian Standards; and
(ii) the required number of on-site car spaces, ie. a minimum of 5.5 car spaces per 100m2 of proposed GFA, to be located at the rear of the site. Note: A reduction in GFA as part of the proposed extension may be required in order to achieve the required number of spaces.
Further, that following submission of the above plans approval of the application be delegated to the Director of Planning and Development subject to the imposition of reasonable and relevant conditions.
Carried.

1.3 Surrounding Land Uses
Land parcels adjoining the site to the north and south, also accommodate commercial premises. Land on the opposite side of River Road is used for parkland purposes. Detached residential dwellings also adjoin the site to the east. There are houses located sporadically along this section of River Road, though it is noted that commercial activities remain the dominant land use.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 38 -
2.0 STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS
2.1 Overall Outcomes / Desired Environmental Outcomes
The overall intent of the Commercial Zone is to accommodate a range of commercial uses in appropriate locations.
The proposal is consistent with the intent of the Zone as it will increase the range of commercial uses available in the area. The location of the proposed commercial use is also consistent with the intent of the Commercial Zone.
2.2 Overlays / Natural Hazards / State Planning Policies
2.2.1 Erosion Hazard
The site is identified on Natural Hazard Map NHM2 as being subject to both Moderate and Very High Erosion Hazard. The applicant has not formally assessed the proposed commercial development against the Erosion and Sediment Control Code, however the applicant will be required to address these issues in detail in an Operational Works application.
2.3 Assessment Against Codes
The applicable Codes include the following:
- Gympie Planning Area Code - Infrastructure Works Code - Landscaping Code - Erosion and Sediment Control Code - Vehicle Parking & Access
The applicant has provided a formal assessment against the Gympie Planning Area Code and the Vehicle Parking & Access Code and addressed the Landscaping Code and engineering Codes.
In this respect, a brief overview of the proposal’s compliance with the relevant Code provisions of the Scheme is provided in the following sections.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 39 -
2.3.1 Gympie Planning Area Code
Impact on Amenity
The proposed offices and shop are not expected to result in any significant adverse amenity impacts on the surrounding area, in particular the adjoining residents to the east. The site, proposed building and carpark are stepped down from dwellings to the east, which is a response to the topography of the land which includes a moderate fall to the River Road frontage. Nuisance from noise is unlikely to be an issue as the use is expected to operate within normal business hours and during that time traffic noise on the Bruce Highway prevails. Adverse impact from light is also not a significant concern given the height of the proposed retaining wall at the rear of the property, which extends approximately one storey above the proposed ground level. Standard conditions should be imposed to ensure the existing amenity of adjoining residents and businesses is not disrupted by potentially adverse impacts.
Provision and Effects of Works
The proposal satisfactorily addresses the provisions of the Code and complies with the majority of Acceptable Solutions where required. Although the setback to the rear boundary measures 5.85m instead of the required 6.0m, the proposed building location is considered satisfactory given that only a small portion of the building is within the setback area, which includes bathrooms and amenities. Loss of privacy or amenity is therefore not expected to be an issue.
In these circumstances, the proposal satisfactorily demonstrates compliance with the Specific Outcome of the Code.
2.3.2 Infrastructure Works Code
Services
The site is connected to reticulated water and sewerage.
The site has access to electricity and telecommunications infrastructure.
Stormwater
The applicant has not provided any details with regard to stormwater management. An Operational Works application must be submitted to Council for assessment. Standard approval conditions will also apply.
2.3.3 Landscaping Code
The applicant has not provided an assessment against this Code. Standard approval conditions will be imposed.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 40 -
2.3.4 Erosion and Sediment Control Code
The applicant has not provided an assessment against this Code. The subject site is identified as being subject to both Moderate and Very High Erosion Hazard and so an approval condition requiring the preparation of a Construction and Operational Erosion and Sediment Control Plan will be imposed.
2.3.5 Vehicle Parking and Access Code
Under Schedule 10: Minimum Parking Requirements, the proposal, included in the definitions of ‘Shop’ and ‘Commercial Premises’ under the scheme, both require car parking at a rate of 6 spaces per 100m2 of GFA. The proposal involves the required amount of 18 total car parking spaces.
Access to the site is proposed via a semi-circular driveway from River Road, which allows ingress and egress from the site to occur via driveways servicing existing commercial facilities on either side of the subject premises. This outcome was recommended by the Department of Main Roads and the applicant has submitted an amended site plan illustrating same.
2.4 Local And/Or State Planning Policies
No State Planning Policies are applicable.
3.0 PUBLIC NOTIFICATION
This application is Code Assessable. Public Notification is not required.
4.0 CONSULTATION
4.1 Internal
Report: (Infrastructure Planning Manager – A. Laszlo)
This engineering report is based on the report submitted by Max Watterson & Associates dated June 2008 and subsequent information submitted.
TRAFFIC The applicant submitted an estimate of traffic generated for the proposed development of 180 trips per day which is not comparable to industry guidelines. Council should adopt industry guidelines and therefore a contribution of $10 096 for the shop and commercial premises is justified which includes a credit for the existing use, ie. one (1) dwelling house.
SITE The proposed development will require retaining structures above 1.0 metre in height. Therefore any retaining structure above 1.0 metre is to be certified by a RPEQ structural engineer.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 41 -
FRONTAGE ROAD/ACCESS/CAR PARKING The proposed development has frontage to River Road which is a state- controlled road that has been widened recently. The development is to comply with all Department of Main Roads conditions. The frontage currently has a footpath constructed.
The proposed access driveway will utilise the existing accesses along River Road. The existing access to the west will be used for entry only and to the south for exit only to limit the amount of accesses onto River Road.
All car parking should be provided on site. The car parking and loading area is to comply with AS2890.1 and AS2890.2. All vehicles to be able to enter and exit in a forward direction.
STORMWATER/FLOODING The development site falls towards River Road. The stormwater drainage design is to meet the requirements of the Department of Roads as required in the Departments Conditions and Statement of Reasons.
The Q100 flood contour traverses the development frontage, however it does not impede the site.
WATER/SEWERAGE Both services are available with adequate capacity in each. Headworks charges are applicable based on Council’s Policy.
SERVICES The developer will be required to provide electrical and communication services to the site with any upgrades to the developers costs.
MISCELLANEOUS The Department of Main Roads, as a Concurrence Agency, assessed the application. All DMR conditions to apply as outlined in its letter dated 30 October 2008.

Report: (Manager Development and Compliance – T.M. Stenholm)
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Development approval for material change of use for a motel was approved on 17 February 2009.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 49 -
The applicant suspended their appeal period on and lodged representations in relation to some of the conditions on 5 March 2009, and submitted a revised plan for Council’s endorsement on 6 April 2009.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 50 -
The conditions requested to be reconsidered are outlined below.
2.0 REPRESENTATIONS
Representations are submitted in relation to footpaths and water and sewerage headworks charges.
3.0 ASSESSMENT
3.1 Condition 1.6
(a) Condition 1.6 reads:
‘A 1.5 metre wide reinforced concrete footpath is to be constructed along the full frontage of the site to Bruce Highway and a 1.2 metre wide reinforced footpath is to be constructed along the full frontage of the site to both Oak and Adams Street. The remaining areas shall be formed, grassed and topsoiled in accordance with the requirements of the Infrastructure Works Code and Planning Scheme Policy 8: Infrastructure Works.’
(b) Applicant’s representations:
‘Could Council please give consideration to removing the requirements for these works as we are of the view that they are unlikely to be used, particularly those on the highway and Adams Street frontages as they don’t lead to a destination.’
(c) Assessment
The original engineering assessment report presented to Council provided the following reasoning for the imposition of footpaths as conditioned.
‘The subject site fronts Bruce Highway, which will be upgraded at some indefinite time in the future. It is currently constructed with kerb and channel without a footpath. A footpath should be provided along this frontage. A 1.5m path should be appropriate. As Council is required to fund any footpath associated with Highway upgrading a contribution equivalent to $13 500, the construction of the pathway should be required.
The Oak Street and Adams Street frontage is constructed with kerb and channel without a footpath. As the highway works would extend into these streets the same above should apply where a 1.2m path should be appropriate. Therefore a contribution of $3,456 for Oak Street and $8,100 for Adam Street is justified. A 1.2m path should be appropriate for these streets.’
Council’s Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan nominates an exclusive bicycle lane along the section of Highway fronting the development site.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 51 -
The exclusive bicycle lane involves a clear width of pavement in the order of 2m (or more) outside the lane edge markings. The cost of such a lane is estimated at $24 365 (ie 188m2 x $108/m2 + 20%). In this regard the previous footpath contribution equivalent of $13 500 could be added as an option in lieu of constructing the footpath along the Highway.
No footpath priorities are nominated in Oak or Adams Street and on this basis the footpath conditions on these streets can be deleted.
3.2 Conditions 1.7 and 1.8
(a) Conditions 1.7 and 1.8 read:
“1.7 Contribution is to be made towards Water Supply Headworks in accordance with Council’s Planning Scheme Policy 7: Water Supply and Sewerage Headworks Contributions, Works External and Works Internal. The contribution is currently assessed at $ 88,147, however, the actual amount payable will be based on Council's policy and the rate applicable, at the time of payment.
1.8 Contribution is to be made towards Sewerage Headworks in accordance with Council’s Planning Scheme Policy 7: Water Supply and Sewerage Headworks Contributions, Works External and Works Internal. The contribution is currently assessed at $ 168,607, however the actual amount payable will be based on Council's policy and the rate applicable, at the time of payment.”
(b) Applicant’s representations:
‘1. Could you please provide the calculations for the amounts listed so that we can ensure the correct credits have been given for the previous use rights on the site?
2. Could Council please give consideration to a credit from the sewer headworks contributions for the cost of relocation of the 300mm trunk sewer that currently crosses the site?
3. Could Council please give consideration to a reduction in the water headworks contributions to offset the cost incurred to build an onsite underground stormwater collection and recycling system? This system will reduce the demand for water supply headworks from the development and as such should be reflected in a reduction in contribution.’
(c) Assessment
Calculation of headworks will be provided to the applicant with the negotiated decision notice.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 52 -
As outlined in the design report following, no credits are considered warranted for the relocation of the trunk sewer, necessary to facilitate the development.
Credits are considered warranted for on-site recycling of stormwater, and hence a reduced loading on Council’s water supply system, however specific details of the system to be installed would need to be submitted and reviewed, to determine the appropriate credits. It is suggested a note be added to the condition for water headworks, advising that Council is prepared to consider a reduced amount following the receipt of a plumbing application for the stormwater recycling system.
Report: (Infrastructure Planning Manager – A. Laszlo)
Headworks contributions are essentially required to expand infrastructure capacity. Relocation of a trunk sewer necessitated by the proposed buildings does not constitute headworks. Hence the costs of relocation of the 300 diameter sewer should be borne entirely by the developer.
3.3 Condition 1.0
(a) Condition 1.0 reads:
“The development shall be generally in accordance with the plan/s submitted with the application (Project No 07-1211 Drawing No/s. 2, 6 dated 16/10/08 and Drawing No/s. 12, 13 & 14 dated 14/04/08 drawn by John Hughes Design).”

2.0 STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS
2.1 Compliance with the Planning Scheme
Under the arrangements of the Cooloola Shire Council 2005 Planning Scheme, Reconfiguring a Lot is ‘Code Assessable’ development and subject to the following codes:
2.1.1 Planning Scheme Provisions
Gympie Planning Area Code
No conflicts with the outcomes sought by the Gympie Planning Area Code.
Reconfiguring a Lot Code
The proposal is considered to conflict with SO-1 (a) of the Code which states: “All new lots for rural residential purposes: (a) are in the Rural Residential Zone;“
Lot 10 RP229921 is in the Rural zone within the Gympie Planning Area. However, a number of rural residential zoned lots surround the block to the south with rural lots to the north and east. Therefore, it is considered that approval of this subdivision for rural residential purposes will not conflict with the surrounding areas and should be considered by Council.
The proposal is considered to conflict with SO-1 (f) of the Code which states: “All new lots for rural residential purposes: (f) do not have direct access to a Major Arterial Road or Arterial Road listed in Schedule 11 Road Hierachy222 “
Cedar Pocket Road is classified as an Arterial Road under Schedule 11.3 Rural Road Hierarchy (2 (d)). The application proposes to construct an unnamed road to provide access for one additional lot away from the Arterial Road. Therefore, the lots will not have direct access from Cedar Pocket Road.
Specific Outcome 12 of the Reconfiguration a Lot Code requires that ‘each lot, separate part of a lot or access easement: a. is of sufficient size and suitable proportions to be able to be capable of being used for its intended purpose; and, b. is not less than the minimum area and dimensions indicated in Schedule Table 12 minimum Lot Areas, Dimensions and Frontages for the zone in which the lot is located except where no greater number of lots is created, and a lesser and reasonable size is warranted due to pre-existing lot size, …,’
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 66 -
Schedule Table 12 Minimum Lot Areas, Dimensions and frontages requires: - Minimum 100ha lot size; and - Minimum frontage of 100m per allotment.
Although the proposed development does not meet the minimum frontage of 100m per allotment in the proposal, it also does not currently meet the minimum lot size of 100ha for each lot in the rural zone. The current lot size of Lot 10 RP229921 is 2 ha. Therefore, it is considered warranted that this standard be relaxed for this application.
As can be seen on the zoning plan, the lot is adjoined on two (2) sides by existing rural residential allotments, sealed road (Cedar Pocket Road) on the eastern side and road reserve area on the northern side. The applicant’s intention to upgrade the existing unnamed road reserve is considered to create an additional hard boundary between existing rural residential development and the surrounding rural area.
Subdivision of the site in conflict with Council’s minimum lot size can be supported from a planning perspective based on the following summarised grounds:
• The subdivision is consistent with the existing settlement pattern in the area; • Approval of the development will create a hard boundary (i.e. new road) between the rural residential and rural zones in the area; • The existing size of the lot restricts its use for agricultural pursuits; • Approval of the subdivision does not pose any amenity concerns or potential land use conflicts with adjoining lots; and • The development can provide for rural residential access standards.
Geotechnical reports were not submitted with the application. It is considered necessary for a report to be done prior to being able to issue a decision notice.
Infrastructure Works Code The proposal is generally able to meet the requirements of the Infrastructure Works Code for the Rural Zone.
Probable Solution 2 of the Infrastructure Works Code requires that ‘Road infrastructure is designed and constructed to the standards stated in: a. Table 8:1 Standards for the Provision of Works; and b. Schedule 1 – Design Standards, Part 2 Site and Road Layout in Planning Scheme Policy 8: Infrastructure Works.’
This proposal suggests the construction of an unnamed road that will be maintained by Council and has already been addressed in a previous section.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 67 -
The applicant has indicated a preference to create an access easement from East Deep Creek Road, through an adjoining property. However, this has not formally been applied for and the application would need to be amended before Council could consider it. The proposal as submitted, indicates constructing the unnamed road reserve off Cedar Pocket Road however it has not been indicated to what standard. Given the number of lots serviced by this road it is considered appropriate to require it to be upgraded to a minimum 3.5 metre wide sealed standard on a 7.0m formation. This will be for a distance of roughly 160 metres to give access to proposed Lot 2.
Landscaping Code Not applicable.
Resource Areas Code The Resource Area Code is intended to preserve Good Quality Agricultural Land (GQAL) present within rural areas. The development site contains large sections of both Class A GQAL in the allotment, however given the proposal is surrounded by lots which are zoned Rural Residential, and the existing lot size restricts the site’s use for agricultural pursuits preservation of GQAL is not considered compromised.
3.0 PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS
3.1 Impact on Amenity
Given the shape of the proposed lot and the existing adjoining residences the proposal is considered to not compromise amenity in the area.
3.2 Site Access and Traffic
Site access and traffic has already been addressed.
Given the road upgrading recommended an additional contribution towards road improvements, it is not considered warranted.
3.3 Flooding
The site is not subject to flooding.
3.4 Vegetation
There is no mapped remnant vegetation on the site as evidenced by the Regional Ecosystem Mapping.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 68 -
3.5 Site Contamination
The site is not known nor suspected to be contaminated. The site does not appear to have been used for a notifiable activity under the Environmental Protection Act 1994.
3.6 Services
Electricity and telecommunications are currently unavailable to the site.
4.0 CONCLUSION
For reasons outlined in the report the application is supported however geotechnical reports should be submitted to confirm effluent disposal, in accordance with the Queensland Plumbing and Wastewater Code.

FILE: Minute: P10/05/09 DA17953 APPLICANT: T.G. and L.E. Taylor RPD: Lot 2 RP157661 SITE: 256 Amamoor-Dagun Road, Amamoor. PROPOSAL: Reconfiguring a Lot – Subdivision to Create Two (2) Additional Lots EXISTING ZONE: Rural PLANNING AREA: Rural SITE AREA: 3.275Ha
Report: (Manager Development and Compliance – T.M. Stenholm)
1.0 THE PROPOSAL
This application seeks to subdivide an existing rural parcel into three (3) allotments.
The proposed lot sizes are 10 220m2, 4 350m2 and 18 180m2.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 70 -
The applicants indicate an intention to build a new dwelling on the larger of the three (3) lots as their principal place of residence, and sell the other two (2) lots.
1.1 Site Description
The subject site is located on Amamoor-Dagun Road, Amamoor and has a total area of 3.275 hectares.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 71 -
The site is improved by a dwelling house and associated outbuildings.
2.0 STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS
2.1 State Planning Policies
The State Planning Policy in regard to Good Quality Agricultural Land is relevant to this application as it contains Class A and B GQAL.
Justification has not been provided with the application to confirm no conflict with the Policy and whilst it is acknowledged the site is probably not of sufficient size to support viable agricultural pursuits there would appear opportunities to use it in conjunction with adjoining properties.
2.2 Planning Scheme Provisions
The subject land is in a Rural Zone where the minimum lot size is 100Ha. The zoning plan following indicates the proposal does not represent infill and consolidation of existing rural residential areas, nor is the development a logical extension of an existing urban area.
Justification submitted to support the proposal in conflict with the Reconfiguring a Lot Code includes:
• the site forms part of a cohesive rural residential community and does have reasonable proximity to a wide range of community, education, recreation and medical services and employment opportunities; • the Rural zone in the subject locality is considered to be used as a ‘holding’ zone acknowledging a future rural residential direction for Amamoor rather than the zone reflecting an area of agricultural production; • having regard to the character of the area, an agricultural use of the site would be inappropriate and the limited land size suggests it would be unable to support an economically viable rural use.
The justification submitted is not considered sufficient to warrant approval for the following reasons;
• the rural zone at this location is not a holding zone for future rural residential expansion, because in fact the planning scheme supports no further residential or rural residential development within the Mary Valley Townships with the exception of Imbil; • whilst it is agreed the size of the site is unable to support viable agricultural pursuits in its own right, opportunity does exist to use the land in conjunction with adjoining parcels and this argument does not overcome the unfavoured planning strategy of locating additional people away from existing community services; and
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 72 -
• the planning scheme clearly indicates Council’s intention to restrict any further rural residential development around Amamoor.
4.0 CONCLUSION
The application is not recommended for approval, however should Council wish to support it a revised report will need to be submitted to Council outlining appropriate requirements in relation to road upgrading/contributions and other conditions.
P10/05/09 Moved: Cr J. Watt Seconded: Cr G.L. Engeman Formatted: Tabs: 70.9 pt, Left + Recommend that Council withdraw the application from the Agenda at 283.5 pt, Left the request of the applicant to allow further discussion with Council officers.

5/2 Update of Urban Road Contribution
Re: Minute: P14/05/09 Update of Urban Road Contribution From: Manager Development and Compliance, T.M. Stenholm File: PSP00001 Date: 22 April 2009
Report: (Manager Development and Compliance – T.M. Stenholm)
1.0 Planning Scheme Policy 13: Urban Road Contributions commenced on 2 August 2008.
2.0 Section 13.10 (2) of the Policy states that: ‘The contribution rates applicable following the date of adoption of this policy shall be the amount outlined in Clause (1) above adjusted by the Road Industry Construction Index (RICI) as determined by Council by resolution from time to time.’
3.0 The RICI is defined in documents published by the Queensland Department of Main Roads.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 101 -
4.0 Discussions with the Department of Main Roads indicate the RICI was abandoned in June 2005 and the ABS ANZSIC Class 4121 Index for road and bridge construction is now used.
5.0 It is considered appropriate that the current urban road contributions be increased at the same time as other contributions (ie beginning of each financial year).
6.0 The ABS ANZSIC Class 4121 index for the last year (March 2008 to March 2009) is calculated as 5.5%, which would result in an increase of the contributions as follows:
Charge Catchment Current Charge Proposed Charge Under 09/10 Schedule of Fees (ie + 5.5%) Gympie $3 320 $3 502 Cooloola $3 200 $3 376 Imbil $1 510 $1 593
7.0 The above amounts will be recommended in the 2009/2010 Schedule of Fees to take effect from 1 July 2009.
8.0 It is also recommended that Council’s Strategic Planner be requested to amend the Policy to reflect the ABS ANZSIC Class 4121 and to allow an increase in the contribution on 1 July annually, during the first review of the planning scheme.
P14/05/09 Moved: Cr R.J. Dyne Seconded: Cr G.L. Engeman
Recommend:
(i) That Council increase the Urban Road Contribution amount by 5.5% for the 2009/10 financial year.
(ii) That Council’s Strategic Planner be requested to amend Planning Scheme Policy 13 during the first review of the planning scheme to: (a) reflect the use of ABS ANZSIC Class 4121 Index instead of RICI; and (b) allow for an increase in the contribution on 1 July annually.

Report: (Manager Development & Compliance – T. M. Stenholm)
1.0 The above correspondence from Liquor Licensing requests Council’s comments in relation to an application for a new detached bottle shop for the Jockey Club Hotel.
2.0 The proposed bottleshop is to be located within the shops on the corner of 107 River Road and the Bruce Highway adjacent to Hungry Jacks and as identified on the map above.
3.0 Council recently considered a similar request within shops on the corner of Excelsior Road and the Bruce Highway. The applicant advises the former application is not proceeding.
4.0 The Liquor Licensing Division requests Council’s comments on the application with regard to social impacts and from the community’s perspective.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 104 -

Namely: Swine Flu Questions and Answers How do I protect myself? What are the symptoms?
This information has been sourced through Queensland Health and is provided for Council’s consideration.
Council staff are also reviewing the creation of a Business Continuity Plan in the event it may be required.
Swine Flu Question and Answers 30 April 2009
What is swine flu? Swine influenza (swine flu) is a respiratory disease of pigs caused by type A influenza viruses. People do not usually get swine flu, but human infections can and do happen.
There are currently outbreaks of swine flu in Mexico and the United States. There are currently no confirmed cases of swine flu in Australia. Swine flu is thought to be spread from person to person in the same way seasonal influenza and other common respiratory infections spread. Swine flu viruses are not spread by food. You cannot get swine flu from eating properly handled and prepared pork or pork products. (CDC and WHO fact sheets)
What are the symptoms? The symptoms of swine flu are similar to those of seasonal influenza, including: Fever Cough Fatigue Sore throat Body aches Headache Chills
How can it be prevented? The seasonal influenza vaccine is unlikely to offer protection against swine flu. However, it is strongly recommended that people continue to be vaccinated against seasonal influenza. Other preventative actions include:
wash your hands frequently with soap and water or use an alcohol based hand gel wash your hands prior to touching your eyes, nose or mouth
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 107 -
when coughing or sneezing, cover your mouth and nose with disposable tissues which should be disposed of immediately don’t share items such as cigarettes, glasses or cups, lipstick, toys or anything which could be contaminated with respiratory secretions maintain at least one metre distance from people who have flu-like symptoms such as coughing or sneezing consult your doctor if you have a cough and fever, and follow their instructions, including taking medicine as prescribed if attending a medical practice or hospital Emergency Department, telephone beforehand so they can arrange for you to be seen away from other people.
Current information suggests that anti-viral drugs (Tamiflu and Relenza) are effective against the swine flu. These drugs are available via a doctor’s prescription.
It is not expected that the Australian seasonal influenza vaccine will provide protection against this new strain of influenza, however, people over 65 another vulnerable groups should still be encouraged to be vaccinated as this will at least provide protection against season influenza.
How do we test for swine flu? Testing involves a nose and throat swab which is sent away to Queensland Health’s Brisbane laboratory. Any initial test results that are positive are sent to the World Health Organization Collaborating Centre for Influenza in Victoria for confirmation.
What should I do if I have just returned from overseas? Anyone who has been in Mexico, the USA or Canada recently, and has become ill within seven days of leaving, should consult their General Practitioner (GP) or hospital emergency department, especially if they have flu-like symptoms.
Is it safe to eat pork meat and products? Swine flu in pigs has never been reported or detected in Australia. Pork and pig meat products are safe to eat. For more information related to animal health visit www.dpi.gov.au
What is the Government doing? The Queensland Government is working with the Commonwealth and other state governments to monitor the situation. Our public health response will continue to be reviewed in line with this. Queensland Health is also: monitoring for cases urgently testing suspect cases placing nurses at the airports to meet all planes from “the Americas”, and has activated the Queensland Health Pandemic Influenza Plan activated the Population Health Sub-plan
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 108 -
established the State Health Emergency Coordination Centre
Where can I get more information or help? For more information visit www.health.qld.gov.au/swineflu or contact your local doctor, hospital or ring 13 HEALTH (13 43 25 84). A Commonwealth Health Hotline for Swine Influenza has been established – ph 1802007.
How do I protect myself? Prevention Tips Swine flu is thought to be spread from person to person in the same way seasonal influenza and other common respiratory infections spread. So the best way to protect you and your family from swine flu is to take the following proactive seasonal flu measures:
• stay home when you are sick;
• wash your hands frequently with soap and water or use an alcohol based hand gel;
• wash your hands prior to touching your eyes, nose and mouth;
• when coughing or sneezing, cover your mouth and nose with disposable tissues which should be disposed of immediately;
• don't share items such as cigarettes, glasses or cups, lipstick, toys or anything which could be contaminated with respiratory secretions;
• maintain at least one metre distance from people who have flu-like symptoms such as coughing or sneezing;
• consult your doctor if you have a cough and fever and follow their instructions, including taking medicine as prescribed;
• if attending a medical practice or hospital Emergency Department, telephone beforehand so that they can arrange for you to be seen away from other people.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 109 -
What are the symptoms? The symptoms of swine flu are similar to those of seasonal influenza, including:
• fever;
• cough;
• sore throat;
• body aches;
• headache;
• chills; and
• fatigue.
Some people have also reported diarrhoea and vomiting associated with swine flu. In the past, severe illness (pneumonia and respiratory failure) and deaths have been reported with swine flu infection in people. Like seasonal flu, swine flu may cause worsening of underlying chronic medical conditions.
Treatment Antiviral medications such as oseltamivir (Tamiflu) and zanamivir (Relenza) can be used in the treatment of swine flu. Antiviral drugs are prescription medicines which fight against the flu by keeping flu viruses from reproducing in your body. Antiviral drugs work best if started soon after becoming sick (within 2 days of symptoms developing).
Antibiotics may be required for secondary bacterial infections such as pneumonia.
Health Outcome Like seasonal flu, swine flu in humans can vary in severity from mild to severe. Serious complications such as pneumonia can occur. People with existing health problems may be at risk of these conditions worsening if they develop swine flu.
We encourage you to talk with health practitioners if you have any questions or concerns.

7.17 EPIDEMIC OR OTHER HEALTH ISSUES PLAN
Aim
To co-ordinate the activities of organisations involved in preparing for and responding to an epidemic and / or pandemic event.
Potential Area of Operations
The following are considered potential areas for conducting health operations:
• whole of Council area;
Background
The major threat is considered to come from the Avian Influenza Virus (H5N1 Bird Flu). The concern is that if the virus mutates into a form capable of being transmitted to humans then it could cause a pandemic similar to the Spanish flu of 1918 which killed millions of people world wide and the resulting consequences could be catastrophic.
Current modelling suggest that the impact on local governments and business generally would see the need for staff members to care for family members and social isolation policies that may cause staff absenteeism – rates as high as 50%.
Within Australia responsibility for implementing the National Action Plan for Pandemic Influenza (NAPPI) lies with the health services emergency services and governments at all levels.
Within Queensland a pandemic would be controlled by the Chief Executive Officer of Queensland Health under the provisions of the Public Health Act 2005.
Management of the consequences of an epidemic or pandemic in Queensland will be the function of State Disaster Management System through State, District and Local Disaster Management Groups.
Changes in alert phases will be determined by the Chief Medical Officer, Australian Government as detailed in the NAPPI.
Potential Communicable Diseases
Epidemics of communicable diseases are of low probability. However the following hierarchy indicates broad probabilities:
Communicable diseases commonly found in the general population: meningitis, food-borne illness, influenza, water-borne diseases;
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 111 -
Setting – potential disease outbreak locations – childcare centres, schools, aged care facilities, event-specific, prisons, marginalised groups such as IV drug users, animal farms (chicken, cattle);
Emerging infectious diseases – Bird flu, SARS, Leptospirosis, Lyssa virus, Q fever;
Biological assault – terrorist threat, biological weapons.
Organisation for Control
The following Agencies have accepted responsibility for the roles indicated in Part 1, Section 5 of the Main Plan:
Lead Agency Support Agencies Queensland Health Gympie Regional Council Queensland Police Service Queensland Ambulance Service Gympie Hospital
Concept of Operations
To be administered in conjunction with Concept of Operations in Part 1, Section 5 of the Main Plan.
Council’s Responsibilities
• determine and maintain appropriate Epidemic or Pandemic Influenza policies and plans consistent with the role of Local Government and complementing relevant state, territory and national policies and plans; • maintain business continuity plans to enable the delivery of Local Government essential services; • support national, state and territory response and recovery by representing the needs of local communities and contributing to their continuing viability; and • support state and territory emergency management frameworks. State Government Responsibilities.
In simple terms, Local Governments have three key functions in the event of an Epidemic or Pandemic Influenza:
• as a Disaster Manager – Council as a local authority is charged with maintaining disaster management plans, arrangements and a response capability as well as for contributing to the management of community consequences of a disaster event;
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 112 -
• as a Service Provider – and supplier of essential services with expectations that continued provision of such services will be guaranteed; and • as a Responsible Employer – to ensure the well being of all staff.
The above responsibilities are best categorised into those with an external focus and those with an internal focus.
• the external aspects are coordinated using the Council’s disaster management arrangements. These are applied to coordinate Council’s response to any disaster and to manage the community consequences of any event. • the internal aspects are managed via a series of business continuity plans (BCP) each covering an essential business service. The BCP aims to guarantee the continued provision of the essential services or priority business process, of the nature and impacts of a disaster. Internal aspects will also be managed through the effective use of Human Resource (HR) management policies and communication strategies that provide for effective staff management during an epidemic/ pandemic.
Council as a Disaster Manager
A key service provided by Councils is managing the community consequences of a major disaster within its boundaries and within the limit of its resources. This service is provided for by the externally-focused disaster management arrangements. It is important to note that Council’s role will change as the pandemic progresses.
In the initial Containment Phase, Council will have a narrow but important set of responsibilities, operating primarily in a support role. This support will be coordinated through the Disaster District structure and will focus on supporting the logistics and infrastructure support to Queensland Health in managing the pandemic influenza outbreak.
Should Containment operations be unsuccessful, the strategy switches to Maintenance of Essential Services. Council then has a much more significant role in two aspects:
• the need to ensure the continued provision of essential community services; and • managing the community consequences of the event (supporting the community).
Council as a Service Provider
Local Governments are major providers of services to their communities. Some are delivered by Council officers, others under contract. In addition, there are support services without which the primary services could not be delivered.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 113 -
In planning for a possible Epidemic or Pandemic Influenza, Councils should consider their essential services and essential support services with regard to how these may be affected by an Epidemic or Pandemic Influenza.
Reviewing Council’s Business Continuity Plans for these essential services should be a principal outcome of the planning process. Such reviews should seek to:
• determine the absolute minimum operating and staff levels for a protracted period, • note key interdependencies; • identify key messages for communication; and • examine the effects of social isolation policies.
In some cases a new plan may have to be written.
Council as a Responsible Employer
As outlined above, an influenza pandemic may have devastating effects on the social infrastructure including high levels of absenteeism. How any organisation manages its people will affect its image and reputation and in some cases may determine if it survives at all.
Two features which will distinguish successful employers will be the quality of their HR response to the pandemic and how they communicate with their staff. The challenge will be to apply existing policies in a consistent manner across the organisation in a flexible way to match the changing requirements as any pandemic evolves.
Issues to be addressed
The following issues are addressed in the operational-plan “Public Health”:
• food and water distribution; • refuse collection and disposal; • vermin and vector control; • disposal of dead animals; • hygiene – food handling, storage and preparation; • immunisation including emergency immunisation of emergency response personnel; • business continuity
Other issues that need to be addressed and documented are listed at the end of this plan.
Gympie Regional Council Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 6 May 2009 - 114 -
Management of Infected Persons
Key principals
In order to slow the spread of the virus, ill people not requiring hospitalisation will need to be restricted to their homes (isolation). Asymptomatic close contact of ill persons will also need to be restricted to their homes (quarantined). Admission to hospitals may need to be limited to the severely ill.
Queensland Health is currently developing guidelines for health care providers on the management of people in home isolation and home quarantine.
Council Business Continuity
The prospect of an epidemic or influenza pandemic is real. The current influenza strain H5N1 (avian influenza or bird flu) is causing concern and the World Health organisation (WHO) has warned that should the virus mutate and be transmitted to humans then there would be significant consequences.
Gympie Regional must be in a position to continue to provide essential services, which are its core responsibilities, to the community.
To this end a Cooloola Influenza Pandemic Management Group has been formed with functions outlined in the attached “Gympie Regional Council Influenza Pandemic Business Continuity Plan”.
