  • Infrastructure Funding Performance Monitor
    UDIA NSW | 2020 Infrastructure Funding Performance Monitor $2.7 billion is currently held as a restricted asset by Councils for the delivery of infrastructure • The current total balance of contributions held across the Greater Sydney megaregion is $2.7 billion, with the average amount held by a Council sitting at $56 million. • Every year new housing contributes almost $900 million to local infrastructure, Executive roads, stormwater, open space and community facilities across the Greater Sydney megaregion through the infrastructure charging framework. It is expected Summary that this infrastructure is built with the funds that are paid. • However, only 64% of the contributions that are paid for were spent in the last three years. Average Total Expenditure Total Income Balance E/I ($’000) ($’000) ($’000) Total 0.64 $650,679 $876,767 $2,653,316 Contributions Under a s7.11 0.85 $564,670 $711,912 $2,330,289 or s7.12 Under a s7.4 0.62 $41,640 $124,180 $259,501 The amount of unspent funding has increased over the past three years • Since FY16 total unspent contributions have increased 33% from $1.98 billion to over $2.65 billion. Executive • In the last year alone unspent contributions increased by 7.8%, or almost $191 million. Summary • Local Government must resolve local issues to ensure that infrastructure is actually provided on the ground. If necessary, the State Government should step-in to support Councils get infrastructure on the ground. Increased funding does not correlate to increased infrastructure delivery • The scatter graphs here show an extremely weak relationship between cash held and expenditure ratios.

  • City of Canada Bay Bike Plan, East-West Bike Route
    7th December, 2020 To Whom It May Concern, RE: City of Canada Bay Bike Plan, East-west bike route Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed City of Canada Bay Bike Plan, East-west bike route. Bicycle NSW has been the peak bicycle advocacy group now in NSW for over forty-four years, and has over 30 affiliated local Bicycle User Groups. We agree with the ptc report and resident feedback that the current route via Gibbs Street and Queens Road is manifestly inadequate. Stenciling bicycles on the roadway, or on the road shoulder where cars park, will do nothing to prevent crashes or convince concerned riders to cycle. It is regrettable that Starve data was used in place of cyclist surveys. Strava is an app used by confident/ fearless riders whose focus is racing and competition. This app literally encourages riders to map the fastest travel times on particular routes, as a form of urban fitness challenge. This is not the audience Canada Bay Council is trying to encourage to ride bikes, and it is a shame that the report failed to canvas riders on the Bay Run who use the cycleway and shared user path, parents and school children. Some of the Bicycle NSW team travel through Canada bay to reach our office in Olympic Park and have direct experience of the many dangerous pinch-points along the Gibbs Street and Queens Road route, as well as better alternatives on quieter streets. We are also acutely aware of the heavy vehicles obstructing road shoulder bike lanes, and of the challenges children face trying to ride to school when crossings between footpaths are unsafe.

  • Communication Licence Rent
    Communication licences Fact sheet Communication licence rent In November 2018, the NSW Premier had the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) undertake a review of Rental arrangements for communication towers on Crown land. In November 2019, IPART released its final report to the NSW Government. To provide certainty to tenure holders while the government considers the report, implementation of any changes to the current fee structure will apply from the next renewal or review on or after 1 July 2021. In the interim, all communication tenures on Crown land will be managed under the 2013 IPART fee schedule, or respective existing licence conditions, adjusted by the consumer price index where applicable. In July 2014, the NSW Government adopted all 23 recommendations of the IPART 2013 report, including a rental fee schedule. Visit www.ipart.nsw.gov.au to see the IPART 2013 report. Density classification and rent calculation The annual rent for communication facilities located on a standard site depends on the type of occupation and the location of the facilities. In line with the IPART 2013 report recommendations, NSW is divided into four density classifications, and these determine the annual rent for each site. Table 1 defines these classifications. Annexure A further details the affected local government areas and urban centres and localities (UCLs) of the classifications. Figure 1 shows the location of the classifications. A primary user of a site who owns and maintains the communication infrastructure will incur the rent figures in Table 2. A co-user of a site will be charged rent of 50% that of a primary user.

  • Community Insight Australia, Business Plan, 2014
    Design By .COM.AU Australia Insight Community This report is presented by Social Impact Hub. Written by: Max Huang, Monti Daryani, Luis Nunez and Vruchi Waje Supervised by: Jessica Roth and Lopa Mehrotra. November 2014 Executive Summary While hundreds of publicly available datasets are released everyday, many organisations do not have the in-house analytical capabilities to better target the work they are doing. Community Insight Australia is a platform that presents this data in easy to generate and analyse, user-defined reports, maps and information sets. It aims to provide not-for-profits, housing providers, corporations, local and state government agencies with the information they require to design better targeted solutions to solve local problems. Locally and internationally the competition for Community Insight Australia is strong, but what sets it apart is its user centred, unrestrictive interface, which means users can start geographical analytics immediately. Community Insight Australia has an exclusive licensing agreement with Community Insight UK, who will provide all back-end and technical support. The Founder of Community Insight Australia is Emma Tomkinson who has worked with the UK precedent and understands the problem that the Community Insight platform solves. The initial capital required is $143,185. This includes a one-off licensing fee to the UK parent organisation. With a total addressable market valued at $2.1 billion and the increasing importance of data mining, Community Insight Australia is poised for steady growth by selling into the public, social, and private sectors. Community Insight Australia employs a subscription-based pricing model, and forecasts to break-even and start repaying investors within the third year of operation.

    SUBMISSION TO THE AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENT, PRODUCTIVITY COMMISSION, INQUIRY INTO DISABILITY CARE AND SUPPORT The City of Botany Bay is a local government authority located between the Sydney CBD to the north, Randwick to the east, Marrickville and Rockdale to the west and the northern bank of Botany Bay to the south. The City includes the suburbs of Botany, Mascot, Banksmeadow, Eastlakes, Hillsdale, Daceyville, Pagewood, Eastgardens and parts of Rosebery. The City has a population of approximately 39,000 residents, with almost half born overseas. Residents from counties such as Bangladesh, Greece, New Zealand, China and Indonesia feature strongly in the demographics of our City. The City of Botany Bay is “committed to improving the total environment to allow all community members who live, work or use the facilities in the Council area to enjoy and benefit from the services provided”. Specifically in terms of access, the Council “is committed to the goal of attaining a City that is fully accessible to all members of the community”. The Council has an adopted Disability Action Plan and a fully functioning Access Committee comprising of a number of community representatives. According to ABS statistics, 19.3% of the population has a disability. Assuming the City’s population is consistent with these statistics, some 7527 of our residents have a disability.

  • A Cameo of Captain Thomas Rowley 2
    A Cameo of Captain Thomas Rowley 2 INTRODUCTION 0.01 The recent gift to my wife of a cameo brooch, said to have been a present from Captain Thomas Rowley to his bride, led to my making enquiries about my wife's great great great grandfather. Many of the stories which accompanied the gift were subsequently found to have little foundation but my enquiries produced much information which may prove of sufficient interest to others to justify my writing this tale of a man who played no small part in the establishment of the Colony of New South Wales. 0.02 In consequence, this Cameo of CAPTAIN THOMAS ROWLEY ( ? - 1806) is dedicated to the memory of his son THOMAS ROWLEY (1794 - 1862) his grandson HORATIO NELSON ROWLEY (1831 – 1887) his great grand-daughter ELIZA SMITH (nee ROWLEY) (1868 - 1921) his great great grandson LESLIE JOHN SMITH (1891 - 1944) and is written for the information of his great great great grand-daughter, my wife NANCY RAMAGE (nee SMITH) his great great great great grandchildren, our children RAYMOND JOHN ALASTAIR RAMAGE JUDITH ANNE RAMAGE DAVID ANDREW RAMAGE and his great great great great great grand-daughters, our grand-daughters ALICIA JANE RAMAGE LAUREN ELIZABETH RAMAGE 0.03 Preface to Second Edition: I have taken advantage of a request for reprinting to correct one or two errors of fact to which my attention has been drawn by some of the many interested descendants who have contacted me following the issue of the first edition. For ease of reference, I have retained the paragraph numbering used previously.
