That Shoalhaven City Council: 1. Joins other Australian councils in endorsing the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons Cities Appeal, which reads: Our city is deeply concerned about the grave threat that nuclear weapons pose to communities throughout the world. We firmly believe that our residents have the right to live in a world free from this threat. Any use of nuclear weapons, whether deliberate or accidental, would have catastrophic, far reaching and long-lasting consequences for people and the environment. In doing so we welcome the entry into force of the UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons on 22 January, 2021. 2. Writes to Prime Minister of Australia, The Hon Scott Morrison MP and the Minister for Foreign Affairs, The Hon Marise Payne MP, requesting that the Australian Government sign and ratify the Treaty without delay.

That Council: 1. Rebuild Croobyar Road between Wilfords Lane and the Princes Highway to a standard suitable for carrying heavy vehicles, surfaced with a low-noise road pavement rather than by patching potholes or standard local road resurfacing. 2. Discourage speeding on Croobyar Road by: a. Installing traffic calming devices, such as a pedestrian refuge just west of Drury Lane b. Installing traffic speed measuring signage that displays vehicle speed and requests a “slow down” 3. Erect signs at the entrance to Milton town requiring truck drivers to avoid compression braking. This in fact is a Shoalhaven-wide issue which needs to be considered city-wide.

That Council support the application for review under section 8.2 of the EP&A Act and approve Development Application No. DA19/2165 for construction of six (6) primitive camping sites "glamping" and associated site amenities buildings, fire refuge building, car parking and landscaping in accordance with the draft Notice of Determination (Attachment 1) to this report.
|
|
|
RESOLVED (Clr Watson / Clr Proudfoot) MIN21.226 That Council maintain its previous decision (see MIN20.770) to not support the review and as presented below: “That Council determine the development application by way of refusal for the following reasons: 1. General community concern about the application being out of character with the local area. 2. The application is located adjacent to two flood ways and becomes isolated during heavy rain. 3. The intersection with Vallon Rd and Jervis Bay Road does not provide contemporary standards of intersection design and will be particularly dangerous for visitors and patrons visiting the site. 4. The proposal is in a high hazard bushfire corridor. 5. The proposal will have a highly disruptive impact on the quite residential amenity of area. 6. The application does not comply with the SLEP definition of a ‘camping ground’ – “an area of land on which tents or similar portable, lightweight temporary shelters are placed” as it proposes very large permanent timber platform structures for the 6 'tent' sites. 7. The proposed luxury accommodation and extensive facilities provided close to neighbouring properties and only a few minutes’ drive from Huskisson do not align with the nature of a 'primitive camping ground' (PCG) as listed under Subdivision 9 of Part 3, Division 3 of the Local Government (Caravan Parks and Camping Grounds) Regulation 2005. 8. Being within 10kms of Huskisson, a major town centre in the Bay and Basin Area, the development is not commensurate with DPIE guidelines which state Primitive Camping Grounds ‘are generally remote from urban areas with only a limited range of facilities.” For: Clr Findley, Clr Gash, Clr White, Clr Wells, Clr Gartner, Clr Digiglio, Clr Alldrick, Clr Levett, Clr Guile, Clr Pakes, Clr Watson, Clr Kitchener and Clr Proudfoot Against: Nil

That Shoalhaven City Council 1. Write to the State Minister For Planning and Public Spaces, Mr Rob Stokes, to once again affirm that this Council has no objection to the State Government purchasing any private land at Manyana that it deems necessary for inclusion as part of an adjacent National Park. Further, Shoalhaven City Council affirms that when a previous State Government re-zones land for residential purposes and then a future State Government expresses an intention to de-zone same land for environmental purposes, then the incumbent State Government acknowledges its responsibility in wholly financing the acquisition, as well as compensating Council for infrastructure monies expended in all good faith as a direct result of the original re-zoning. 2. Condemns any organised group or person or persons from Manyana who seek to misrepresent previous resolutions of Council regarding the State Government’s stated desire to have said land at Manyana included as National Park, as a blatantly and a deceptive political attempt to divide the Council and to bring it into disrepute.

RESOLVED (Clr Guile / Clr Wells) MIN21.231 That Council: 1. Endorse the 2021/22 Draft Delivery Program and Operational Plan, Budget, Fees and Charges (amended to include a rating structure limited to the 2% rate peg increase) for the purpose of placing on public exhibition for a period of 28 days. 2. Approve the Minister’s allowable limit of a 2% rate peg in 2021/22 to the notional yield as permitted by Section 511 of the Local Government Act 1993. 3. Maintain the 2020/21 rating structure, comprising both base and ad valorem amounts noting that the use of a base amount results in bringing the higher and lower values closer together and in effect spreads the burden across the board to all ratepayers – noting also that this is a commonly used rating structure that is considered to provide the fairest and most equitable distribution of the rate levy across the LGA. 4. In accordance with Section 566(3) of the Act, endorse the rate of interest payable on overdue rates and charges for the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022 (inclusive) to be 1.5% per annum. It is noted that this is significantly lower than the 2020 OLG recommended maximum of 7%. Interest charges will continue to be waived for ratepayers that are experiencing financial hardship and apply for financial assistance under Council’s Hardship Policy. 5. Note that the proposed Waste Fees and Charges for 2021/22 have been included in the Draft DPOP and are tabled to Council for endorsement in a separate report to this Strategy & Assets Committee Meeting. 6. Receive a report on feedback from the community on the Draft 2021/22 DPOP and Budget following the 28 days public exhibition period.
