Cultural and Community Committee CULTURAL SUB-COMMITTEE 16 JUNE 2014 ITEM 4. EXPRESSION OF INTEREST – POTENTIAL FUTURE USE OF STAPLETON HALL AT PADDINGTON TOWN HALL FILE NO: S096423 SUMMARY The draft Creative City Cultural Policy, endorsed for public exhibition by Council on 12 May 2014, expresses the City’s commitment to supporting the cultural and creative life of Sydney. This Policy recommends the City use its powers, services and programs to support a creatively vibrant, distinctive and memorable city that celebrates artists and creativity in all its forms. On 18 November 2013, Council unanimously endorsed the public exhibition of the City of Sydney Live Music and Live Performance Taskforce’s Action Plan, Live Music Matters: Planning for Live Music and Performance in Sydney. On 9 December 2013, Council resolved that the Chief Executive Officer immediately progress with several projects recommended within the Taskforce’s draft Action Plan. One of these projects was to audit City of Sydney indoor and outdoor sites, including Paddington Town Hall, identifying capital infrastructure works (including sound attenuation and purchase of pianos) and changes to current approvals and management plans (including development approvals, hiring policies, insurances, prices and liquor licensing options) required to ensure their suitability as performance spaces. The City of Sydney Live Music and Performance Action Plan, which was subsequently adopted by Council on 7 April 2014, also included an action to optimise City-owned indoor and outdoor facilities for use as live music and performance venues. The City has been approached by a commercial theatre producer who wishes to investigate leasing the main auditorium of Paddington Town Hall (Stapleton Hall) and associated areas within the building for an extended season of a new musical theatre work. A venue capacity of 400 to 500 is anticipated, with performances across six days. While Paddington Town Hall was a well-known venue for live music in the 1970s and 1980s, in recent years Stapleton Hall has operated as a community venue, hosting daily hires such as wedding receptions, school concerts and clearance sales. From January 2013 to May 2014 (the last seventeen months), the venue was hired for 109 days, an average of less than 6.4 days per month (or 21 per cent of available days). Of these events, only three were live performance events open to the public. The decline in retail conditions on Oxford Street in Paddington has been identified in a number of reports, including the Oxford Street Cultural Quarter Action Plan 2009 and 2011 Oxford Street Activation Project. Most recently, work commissioned by Woollahra Council has reiterated the value of regular cultural activity in creating an optimal business mix for the local economy. In response to these circumstances and strategy settings, it is recommended that an Expression of Interest be called to explore the increased use of Stapleton Hall as a performance venue on a short to medium term basis. It is envisaged that areas for assessment would include potential to: • increase utilisation measured by projected number of performances, projected attendances and days of operation; • increase economic activity for local businesses; EXPRESSION OF INTEREST – POTENTIAL FUTURE USE OF STAPLETON HALL AT PADDINGTON TOWN HALL 11290406 CULTURAL SUB-COMMITTEE 16 JUNE 2014 • lift the profile of Stapleton Hall as a performance venue and the profile of the surrounding cultural precinct; • provide broader economic benefits through employment and visitation to Sydney and NSW; and • deliver a high quality, publicly accessible program of activity. RECOMMENDATION It is resolved that: (A) Council note the action in the Live Music and Performance Action Plan to optimise City venues for use as live music and performance venues; (B) Council note that Stapleton Hall has a current consent to operate as an entertainment venue; (C) Council endorse lodgement of a Section 96 modification application to extend the term of the current consent; (D) Council endorse an Expression of Interest process being undertaken to assess potential uses and users of Stapleton Hall with the primary assessment criteria of increasing utilisation of the venue as a performance space; and (E) the Chief Executive Officer inform Councillors of the result of the Expression of Interest process. ATTACHMENTS Nil. EXPRESSION OF INTEREST – POTENTIAL FUTURE USE OF STAPLETON HALL AT PADDINGTON TOWN HALL 11290406 CULTURAL SUB-COMMITTEE 16 JUNE 2014 BACKGROUND 1. Sustainable Sydney 2030 provides strategic directions for the City’s actions over the next 16 years. Strategic Direction 7 identifies the value to the City of fostering a Cultural and Creative City. 2. In June 2011, Council endorsed the Oxford Street Activation Project, a culture-led revitalisation of the Oxford Street precinct, including curated creative retailing, affordable creative spaces, cultural and community events, pop-up retail, public art, open studios and establishment of the Oxford Street Creative Precinct Network. 3. The importance of the City optimising its cultural infrastructure has been identified in the recently adopted Live Music and Performance Action Plan. Specifically, on 9 December 2013, Council resolved to expedite projects recommended in the Taskforce’s Action Plan by requesting the Chief Executive Officer to: (a) audit City of Sydney indoor and outdoor sites including Glebe Town Hall, Paddington Town Hall, Redfern Town Hall, Erskineville Town Hall, Alexandria Town Hall, Paddington Reservoir Gardens and Cook and Phillip Park, identifying capital infrastructure works (including sound attenuation and purchase of pianos) and changes to current approvals and management plans (including development approvals, hiring policies, insurances, prices and liquor licensing options) required to ensure their suitability as performance spaces; and (b) use the information gathered through the audit to plan modifications for community facilities and venues across the Local Government Area to enable their use as live music rehearsal and performance space or to further enhance their capability and ensure that this is considered as part of the 2014/15 City of Sydney budget allocation process. 4. The Live Music and Performance Action Plan adopted by Council on 7 April 2014 included the following actions: “4.8.1 Review opportunities to equip key City of Sydney hireable community venues with appropriate sound, lighting and seating infrastructure and any required approvals to enhance their capacity as performance venues. 4.8.2 Review hiring policies, prices, facilities and liquor licensing options associated with venues owned by the City of Sydney so that they are optimised to support small-scale live music and performance in Sydney.” 5. Paddington Town Hall has a rich history as a performance venue. Shane Homan, in his 2003 book documenting the development of Australian popular music The Mayor’s a Square – Live Music and Law and Order in Sydney, recognises the importance of Paddington Town Hall as a performance venue. In the late 1960s, it hosted a blossoming of counter-cultural events, evolving in the 1970s and 1980s as an alternative to the “beer barn Oz rock” venues for acts such as The Saints and Radio Birdman, along with “roots” music such as blues, country and reggae. EXPRESSION OF INTEREST – POTENTIAL FUTURE USE OF STAPLETON HALL AT PADDINGTON TOWN HALL 11290406 CULTURAL SUB-COMMITTEE 16 JUNE 2014 6. Stapleton Hall is currently run as a community venue catering to short-term hires such as wedding receptions, school concerts and clearance sales. From January 2013 to May 2014, Stapleton Hall has been booked on average for 6.4 days per month, including internal City meetings. Venue utilisation for this period analysed by booking type is shown in the graph below: 7. Current constraints for the operation of Stapleton Hall as a performance venue include noise transference to adjoining tenanted spaces; limited parking opportunities; minimal technical infrastructure and backstage facilities; and the absence of a loading dock and goods lift. Consideration of these challenges will be part of the Expression of Interest process, complementing the investigations as part of the Live Music and Performance Action Plan. Despite these constraints, the venue recently hosted a highly successful popular music concert produced by Frontier Touring. 8. As a community venue, the approved Fees and Charges for Stapleton Hall provide for full or part day hire only. The proposed Expression of Interest (EOI) process will invite fee proposals for short to medium use of the venue (1 week to 24 months). This will provide a mechanism to establish a market value for its extended use as a performance venue (e.g. weekly or monthly rental charges). It is anticipated that a new fee structure for use of this venue on a short to medium term basis would be required. 9. Stapleton Hall has development consent to operate as a Place of Public Entertainment between 8am and midnight daily. This consent lapses in August 2014. It is proposed that a Section 96 modification application be lodged to seek to extend the term of this consent. EXPRESSION OF INTEREST – POTENTIAL FUTURE USE OF STAPLETON HALL AT PADDINGTON TOWN HALL 11290406 CULTURAL SUB-COMMITTEE 16 JUNE 2014 10. It is anticipated that an EOI would draw a range of proposed users. Proposed uses could include seasons of: (a) theatre productions (exclusive use for eight performances per week for up to 12 months); (b) live music (including jazz, classical, blues/roots,

The Physical Disability Council of NSW (PDCN) is the peak body representing people with physical disabilities across New South Wales. This includes people with a range of physical disability issues, from young children and their representatives to aged people, who are from a wide range of socio-economic circumstances and live in metropolitan, rural and regional areas of NSW The objectives of PDCN are: • To educate, inform and assist people with physical disabilities in NSW about the range of services, structure and programs available that enable their full participation, equality of opportunity and equality of citizenship • To develop the capacity of people with physical disability in NSW to identify their own goals, and the confidence to develop a pathway to achieving their goals (ie self advocate). • To educate and inform stakeholders (ie about the needs of people with a physical disability) so they are able to achieve and maintain full participation, equality of opportunity and equality of citizenship. PDCN would like to thank the City of Sydney for the opportunity to make comment on the Draft Public Toilet Strategy 2013, and would like to support its recognition in the provision of universal access to public toilets, and commend its integration universal access and disability into the strategic plan.

  • Introduction
    Introduction In January 1997, two Sydney Morning Herald journalists produced a brief account of what they perceived to be the most important rock and roll sites in Sydney.1 Their sense of the city's rock histories extended to places of local mythology well beyond popular music's production and consumption: five star hotels as frantic sites of adoration of the Beatles ensconced within; psychiatric hospitals where career paths merged with psychosis; and migrant hostels as sites of cross-cultural ambitions. The article was a rare acknowledgement of the spaces and places of performersand fans' interaction. This thesis constitutes an extended response to the article's implicit desire to recognise alternative accounts of Australian popular music connected to broader city narratives. In analysing the rock music venues of Sydney as sites of interaction between musicians, fans and government, I am principally concerned with three interrelated themes: • The social construction of live performance venues from 1955 amidst the parallel construction of the performer and fan as an 'unruly' subject; • The industrial development of live performance: the live rock venue within commercial/economic structures; and • The dialectical tension of the above in reconciling the state's desire for manageable 'cultural citizens' with broader cultural policy (support for live rock and roll within arts policies). A more detailed explication of these strands is undertaken in Chapter One, in providing a theoretical overview of relations between popular culture and the state, and specific media/cultural/popular music studies approaches to cultural practice and policy. My personal interest in the histories of live rock venues parallels an increased 1 Jon Casimir and Bruce Elder, 'Beat streets - a guide to Sydney's rock and roll history', Sydney Morning Herald, 9th January, 1997, pp.29-30.

Incremental steps are no longer adequate – we need to dramatically increase economic needs of the present action.

The campaign is calling upon the Minister of Transport to take immediate action to install lifts to Redfern station platforms. A lack of accessibility to transport services reduces the independence of people with less mobility as well as making it very difficult and unsafe for the elderly and parents with small children and prams, as well as passengers with luggage. “Access to public transport is a basic right. Given that Redfern station is one of the busiest transport hubs in NSW, more suburban and inter-urban trains stop here than any other station, with the exception of Central, and 50,000 people use this station every day. It is appalling that there are no lifts,” said Mehreen Faruqi, Limited access to Redfern station: Shireen Haas holding her son Archie Haas Pustahija (5 months) Photo: Esther Butcher spokesperson for Lift Redfern Station.
