  • 2012 Football Club Chairman’S Report
    MANLY-WARRINGAH RUGBY LEAGUE FOOTBALL CLUB LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2012 FOOTBALL CLUB CHAIRMAN’S REPORT Going back to back in the NRL competition has proven too big a task for the defending Premiers each year since 1992, but I can proudly say that in 2012, Geoff Toovey and the boys gave it a red hot go. Despite a host of difficulties, including pre-season disruptions, travelling to the UK for the World Club Challenge, injuries, suspensions and off field distractions, the team, led by Co-Captains Jamie Lyon and Jason King, rallied together magnificently to finish in the Top 4, falling only one game short of another Grand Final appearance after defeat by eventual 2012 Premiers, the Melbourne Storm. Whilst we may not have achieved our ultimate goal of successfully defending our 2011 title, we should not lose sight of just how difficult it is to remain near the top of the NRL competition each year. Accordingly, we should all be extremely proud of what was still a very successful 2012 season for the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles. In his first year as Head Coach, Geoff Toovey did a fantastic job despite a less than ideal preparation and I am sure he is itching to get into 2013, knowing the experience of his first year under his belt will stand him in good stead for the challenges that lie ahead. With the nucleus of the side being retained long term, particularly our young halves, Keiran Foran and Daly Cherry-Evans, we can all be justifiably confident that a 9th premiership is well within our reach in coming seasons.

  • City of Canada Bay Dramatically Improves Their Communications Capability with Microsoft Skype for Business and Enghouse Interactive Communications Centre
    City of Canada Bay Dramatically improves their communications capability with Microsoft Skype for Business and Enghouse Interactive Communications Centre City of Canada Bay is a council located in the suburbs of Sydney, Australia. In late 2015 the Council chose to deploy Enghouse Interactive Communications Centre and TouchPoint, integrated with Microsoft Skype for Business, as their customer service communications infrastructure across the entire Council. As a result, the Council dramatically improved their communications capability, and put in place a solution that will service them for at least the next ten years. Background City of Canada Bay is a Council within the Sydney metropolitan area, serving over 75,000 residents. Their legacy customer service communications solution had been in place for over nine years and had reached the end of its life-cycle. City of Canada Bay’s Information Systems and Customer Services teams decided to roll out a total solution across the entire Council, from top to bottom, to ensure all staff in the business benefited from the new communications infrastructure. In the contact centre, the customer services agents were only able to manage calls and could not service channels like webchat, which Canada Bay residents wanted to use to communicate with the Council’s contact centre. Also, the reporting functionality did not allow the managers in the Customer Services department to have any oversight on agents, and therefore were not able to identify where service improvements were needed. Council had explored the option of upgrading the legacy solution, but it was simply not an option. A full upgrade would still not provide all the capabilities and functionality that was needed, and even then, it would still not be a cutting edge solution, future- proofed to meet the Council’s needs in the years ahead.

  • Final Submission on Exhibition of Carter St Urban Activation Precinct
    Submission on Carter St Urban Activation Precinct Auburn City Council SUBMISSION PUBLIC EXHIBITION CARTER ST URBAN ACTIVATION PRECINCT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Council appreciates the opportunity to comment on the exhibition of the proposed Carter Street Urban Activation Precinct (UAP). It is acknowledged that this exhibition follows a number of meetings with a Council working group, at which various issues were discussed. Some of the key issues in this submission have previously been raised by Council. In other cases, the exhibition gives Council the opportunity to view a number of more detailed reports for the first time, so many of the detailed comments have not previously been raised through the working group. Council supports a number of key aspects of the proposal. The inclusion of a primary school, community facilities and a new local centre to provide for the new residential area is supported. The retention of employment lands adjoining the M4 Motorway is also supported, as it recognises the role this land can continue to play, not only in providing jobs, but also in contributing to the productivity of this LGA. However, the planning for the Carter Street UAP needs to address the very low level of infrastructure available to support the local communities north of Parramatta Road within Auburn LGA. More information is also required to enable the development of a contributions plan. This will also require the involvement of SOPA. Council requests that the proposed 578m 2 community facility be increased to 1,000m 2 to meet the needs of the Carter Street community. The proposed increase in size is based on best practice and a dwelling occupancy rate that recognises the high average household size in Auburn LGA.

  • The Great Property Crime Drop: a Regional Analysis
    NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research Bureau Brief Issue paper no. 88 July 2013 The Great Property Crime Drop: A regional analysis Don Weatherburn and Jessie Holmes Aim: To describe and discuss regional variation between parts of NSW in the rate at which theft and robbery offences have fallen. Method: Percentage changes in rates of offending in robbery and various categories of theft were calculated for the period 2000 to 2012. Changes in the extent to which rates of crime across areas have become more similar were quantified by comparing the standard deviation in crime rates across areas in 2000 to the standard deviation in crime rates in 2012. Product moment calculations were used to measure (a) the extent to which areas with high crime rates in 2000 also had high crime rates in 2012 and (b) the extent to which areas with the highest crime rates in 2000 had the largest falls in crime in 2012. Results: The fall in property crime and robbery across NSW between 2000 and 2012 has been very uneven; being much larger in Sydney and other urban areas than in rural areas. The fall in theft offence rates ranges from 62 per cent in the Sydney Statistical Division (SD) to 5.9 per cent in the Northern SD. Similarly, the fall in robbery rates ranges from 70.8 per cent in the Sydney SD to 21.9 per cent in the Northern SD. In some areas some offences actually increased. The Murray, Northern, Murrumbidgee, North Western, Hunter and Central West SDs, for example, all experienced an increase in steal from a retail store.

The location of Sydney Gateway, including the project, is shown on Figure 1.1. Roads and Maritime has formed the view that the project is likely to significantly affect the environment. On this basis, the project is declared to be State significant infrastructure under Division 5.2 of the NSW Environmental Planning & Assessment Act 1979 (EP&A Act), and needs approval from the NSW Minister for Planning.
