RP-2 LICENCE RENEWAL TO WAGGA HISTORIC ENGINE CLUB INC - PART LOT 14 DP 1177748
Author: Matthew Dombrovski
Executive: John Sidgwick
Summary: |
Following public exhibition, Council staff have received an objection to the licence renewal of Wagga Historic Engine Club Inc over Crown Reserve 1440, Willans Hill part lot 14 DP 1177748. This report seeks endorsement from Council to proceed with the renewal of the Licence Agreement. |
That Council: a acknowledge that one submission has been received following the public consultation period b endorse proceeding with the renewal of the Licence Agreement as outlined in the body of this report. c authorise the affixing of Council’s common seal to all relevant documents as required |
Report
Council resolved on the 31 January 2022 (resolution 22/030) to renew the existing licence agreement with Wagga Historic Engine Club Inc (WHEC) over Crown Reserve 1440, Willans Hill (being part Lot 14 DP 1177748) for a period of five years.
In accordance with its obligations pursuant to the Local Government Act 1993, Council undertook a public exhibition process of the proposed licence of Crown Land to the WHEC. During the public exhibition period, Council staff received one submission. The submission raised three concerns in relation to the licenced premises, including a formal objection to the fire trail being enclosed within the licenced area. The other two concerns were observations of issues associated with the existing Licence Agreement. A copy of the submission received (with contact details redacted) is attached as Annexure A.
Objection raised
Sections 47 & 47A of the Local Government Act 1993 provides details of the processes which need to be considered when dealing with the grant of a lease or licence over community land. In particular, Clause 47 (4) sets out that before granting a lease or licence, Council must consider all submissions duly made to it.
The formal objection contained in the submission relates to the fire trail being located within the enclosed licenced area. The submission states that as a result of the lands being contained within the fenced area, the public are required to walk/ride around the WHEC perimeter fence and down a ‘badly constructed foot track’ to re-join the fire trail. The submission claims that the WHEC fence has restricted easy foot and bicycle access to the fire trail.
Attached as Annexure B is an aerial map which shows the current licenced area, walking track and emergency vehicle access to the fire trail.
History with the Fence:
A number of years ago, WHEC approached Council requesting to install a perimeter fence to increase the security of the clubs’ assets and enable them to have outdoor displays.
Council resolved a number of matters relating to the WHEC at its April 2015 meeting. Part (e) of that resolution (15/101) concerned the dual use (bike and walking) track that currently runs through the area licensed to WHEC:
e defer consideration of the track location until the June 2015 Policy and Strategy Committee Meeting pending further negotiations between council staff and relevant stakeholders to ascertain the best outcome for the Wagga Historic Engine Club Inc and track users
On 15 June 2015 a Policy and Strategy Committee Meeting was held to respond to part (e) of Council Resolution 15/101 (April 2015). Outlined in the report was the stakeholder engagement conducted by Council on the possible options for the realignment of the dual track and any concerns identified. The stakeholder engagement conducted by Council included ten clubs representing cycling, running and walking (including kennel clubs) to identify the needs to the users of the track. No opposition was proposed to the realigning of the track, and the only factors identified as requiring further consideration included aspects such as signage on the track.
Council therefore resolved in June 2015 (Resolution No. 15/177) to construct a perimeter fence around the Wagga Historic Engine Club licenced area and realign the dual purpose track so that it followed the alignment of the perimeter fence.
On the basis that Council has previously endorsed the construction of the fence pursuant to Resolution No. 15/177, it is recommended that Council acknowledge the submission, but undertake no further action to change the position.
Other concerns identified in submission
The submission also identified two areas of concern with the licensee’s maintenance and use of the site.
Firstly, the submitting party identified the weeds which are currently growing on the land. Council have addressed this concern with the licensee who have formally responded advising they do control the noxious weeds and mowing of the grass around the premises, however, have had difficulty maintaining the weeds due to the wet season we have experienced. Council’s Property Officers intend to continue inspections of the area to ensure this has been addressed by the licensee.
Secondly it was identified that a large amount of dirt had been ‘dumped’ on the site to enlarge the proposed display area. Council staff have conducted internal consultations on this matter, have confirmed that a development application in relation to the fill on the site (DA No. 18/0425) was lodged by the licensee.
Recommendation
It is recommended that Council acknowledge the submission made, but on the basis the historic information provided above and noting previous Council Resolutions, that Council endorse proceeding with the renewal of the Licence Agreement.
Financial Implications
No additional financial implications. Council will receive rental income commencing at $765 on the renewal of the Licence, reviewed annually in accordance with Council’s Fees and Charges.

Risk Management Issues for Council
Council has a responsibility to adequately manage its property assets. This includes, in cases where the property is Crown Land, managing the assets in accordance with obligations set out in the Crown Land Management Act 2016 and Local Government Act 1993.
The review of submissions including formal objection is a requirement of the Local Government Act 1993, and failure to do so would leave Council in breach of its legislative requirements.
Internal / External Consultation
Internal consultation has been undertaken within Council’s Regional Activation Directorate.
A public exhibition has been consulted in relation to the grant of the proposed Licence which attracted one submission.

RP-3 APPLICATIONS FOR SUBSIDY FOR WASTE DISPOSAL FOR CHARITABLE ORGANISATIONS
Author: Greg Ewings
Executive: John Sidgwick
Summary: |
This report has been prepared for applications submitted to Council by local charitable organisations, community groups and individuals seeking relief from fees for the disposal of waste at Council’s Gregadoo Waste Management Centre (GWMC) for the 2022/23 financial year, on the basis that they are providing a benefit to the community. |
That Council endorse the Annual 2022/23 Waste Disposal Subsidy for the total amount of $1,000.00 for Wagga Menshed. |
Report
Council’s Financial Assistance Policy (POL 093), along with the Delivery Program and Operational Plan incorporate the specific program of waiving of Gregadoo Waste Management Centre Fee and provides the $10,300 budget allocation for 2022/23.
As part of this program, individuals, registered not-for-profit, non-government registered charities or community groups located in the Wagga Wagga Local Government Area can apply for a waiver or subsidised waste disposal fees. There are two types of waivers or subsidised waste disposal fees that may be applied for:
1. An annual waiver or reduction to a maximum value of $1,000, or
2. A waiver or fee reduction for a single, specific project up to a maximum value of $250. This may be for advertised events such as Clean-Up Australia Day or the Adopt-A-Road Program.
An advertisement was placed in regional newspapers and on Council’s website during April and May 2022 inviting applications for subsidised waste disposal fees. The Wagga Menshed application was received 6 March 2023 after the advertised closing date of 31 May 2022.
The following table lists the amount of the subsidy requested:
No. |
Name of Applicant |
Requested Subsidy $ |

|
Total |
$1,000.00 |
The Wagga Menshed organisation is well known to Council for providing valuable charitable and social services that benefit the community of Wagga Wagga.
It is recommended to approve this application and given that there are over 150 registered charities listed in the Wagga Wagga Local Government Area, it is proposed that the remaining budget amount of $2,000.00 be retained to fund any further applications for subsidised fees that may be received during the 2022/23 financial year
Financial Implications
An allowance of $10,300.00 for subsidised waste disposal has been made in the Solid Waste budget for 2022/23, funded from the Solid Waste Reserve. The approval of this report will leave $2,000.00 for Council to consider any further applications received for the remainder of the financial year as set out below.

Internal / External Consultation
Internal consultation with the relevant sections within Council will be undertaken to ensure the operators of the landfill and finance staff are advised of the subsidy to ensure it is applied correctly and monitored appropriately.
The applicant will be advised of the resolution of Council regarding their application for subsidised disposal fees, how the subsidy will be applied and the conditions of entry into the landfill.

RP-4 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE REPORT AS AT 30 APRIL 2023
Author: Carolyn Rodney
Summary: |
This report is for Council to consider information presented on the 2022/23 budget and Long-Term Financial Plan, and details Council’s external investments and performance as at 30 April 2023. |
That Council: a approve the proposed 2022/23 budget variations for the month ended 30 April 2023 and note the balanced budget position as presented in this report b approve the proposed budget variations to the 2022/23 Long Term Financial Plan Capital Works Program including new projects and timing adjustments c note the Responsible Accounting Officer’s reports, in accordance with the Local Government (General) Regulation 2021 (Part 9 Division 3: Clause 203) that the financial position of Council is satisfactory having regard to the original estimates of income and expenditure and the recommendations made above d note the details of the external investments as of 30 April 2023 in accordance with section 625 of the Local Government Act 1993 e accept the grant funding offers as presented in this report |
Wagga Wagga City Council (Council) forecasts a balanced budget position as of 30 April 2023.
The balanced budget position excludes the Wagga Wagga Airport estimated deficit result for the financial year – as previously reported to Council, any Airport deficit result will be sanctioned, and funded in the interim by General Purpose Revenue (via the Internal Loans Reserve). The deficit results will be accounted for as a liability in the Airport’s end of financial year statements and paid back to General Purpose Revenue (Internal Loans Reserve) by the Airport in future financial years.
Proposed budget variations including adjustments to the capital works program are detailed in this report for Council’s consideration and adoption.
Council has experienced a positive monthly investment performance for the month of April when compared to budget ($267,131 up on the revised monthly budget). This is mainly due to better than budgeted returns on Council’s investment portfolio, as a result of the ongoing movement in the interest rate environment, as well as a positive movement in Councils Floating Rate note portfolio and NSW T-Corp Managed Fund for the month.
Key Performance Indicators
OPERATING INCOME
Total operating income is 86% of approved budget and is trending above budget for the month of April 2023. This is due to increased revenue from Interest on Investments, with more detail included in the Interest on Investments section of the report below.
An adjustment has been made to reflect the levy of rates that occurred at the start of the financial year. Excluding this adjustment, operating income received is 96% when compared to budget.
OPERATING EXPENSES
Total operating expenditure is 81% of approved budget which is slightly under budget for the end of April.
CAPITAL INCOME
Total capital income is 73% of approved budget. It is important to note that the actual income from capital is influenced by the timing of the receipt of capital grants and contributions in relation to expenditure incurred on the projects. This income also includes the sale of property (including the recent sale of Bomen land) as well as plant and equipment.
CAPITAL EXPENDITURE
Total capital
expenditure including commitments is 63% of approved budget with some purchase
orders being raised for the full contract amounts for multi-year projects.
Excluding commitments, the total expenditure is 32% when compared to the
approved budget.

Risk Management Issues for Council
Council policies are essential to ensure transparent legal, fair and consistent decision-making across the Council. They support Council in achieving its corporate objectives and provide a critical guide for staff, Councillors and other stakeholders in decision-making. In the absence of effective policies there is a greater risk of inconsistency, confusion and inefficiency.
Internal / External Consultation
Consultation has been held internally across Council with relevant parties.
Given the financial and public transparent nature of these draft policies, the Audit, Risk and Improvement Committee (ARIC), reviewed and endorsed the draft policies as attached at their meeting on 23 February 2023.
The draft policies were placed on public exhibition for 28 days from 17 March 2023 to 14 April 2023 and open for public submissions until 28 April 2023 through media and community engagement mechanisms as outlined below.

RP-7 DRAFT ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE ON PUBLIC LAND POLICY (POL 054)
Author: Carly Hood
Executive: Janice Summerhayes
Summary: |
This report provides a draft ‘Electric Vehicle Charging on Public Land’ Policy (the Policy) for endorsement to be placed on public exhibition. |
That Council: a endorse the draft ‘Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure on Public Land’ Policy (POL 054) to be placed on public exhibition for a period of 28 days from 27 May 2023 to 24 June 2023 and invite public submissions until 8 July 2023 on the draft policies b receive a further report following the public exhibition and submission period: i addressing any submissions made with respect to the proposed ‘Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure on Public Land’ Policy ii proposing adoption of the Policy unless there are any recommended amendments deemed to be substantial and requiring a further public exhibition period |
Report
At its ordinary meeting on 7 November 2022 Council resolved to:
a note the information provided in the report
b prepare an EV charging on public land policy as detailed in the report
c endorse participation in the NSW Destination EV Charging Grants
d approve the budget variation/s as detailed in the Financial Implications section of the report
Background
Demand for electric vehicles (EVs) in Australia has grown, with the EV market share increasing by 65% in 2022 to 3.4% of new light vehicle car sales (EV Council, 2022). In 25 years, it is highly likely that virtually all new passenger vehicles sold in Australia will be electric vehicles, with many global car manufacturers committing to exiting the Internal Combustion Engine market.
There are numerous businesses that have established commercial models where they provide and fund EV infrastructure and cover their costs by charging vehicle users. This provides an opportunity to increase the required infrastructure that is funded by EV users, as well as State and Commonwealth grants, rather than by ratepayers generally. Council strongly encourages the uptake of chargers on private land through private investment, however the scope of this Policy relates specifically to publicly available EV charging infrastructure on Council owned and controlled land (including Crown Land).
Given the complex and dynamic space of transport electrification, an overview of the various government initiatives is provided below for additional background and context.
Federal Government actions on vehicle uptake
The Federal Government has the most influence in driving an increase in the supply of electric vehicles. The National Electric Vehicle Strategy has seen the introduction of an electric car discount, which includes removal of import duty taxes for EVs. Additionally, this policy includes the removal of the Fringe Benefit Tax for fleet vehicles. A more modern national fuel efficiency standard would also be a powerful driver in EV adoption.
NSW Government actions on vehicle uptake
As part of the NSW Electric Vehicle Strategy the Government is providing rebates of $3000 for the first 25,000 EVs sold in NSW (for under $68,750). These rebates are designed to encourage EV uptake and are targeted to the cars more people can afford.
The NSW Government has also removed stamp duty from EVs under $78,000 (purchased after 1 September 2021) and from all other EVs and plug-in hybrids from 1 July 2027 or when EVs make up at least 30% of new car sales, at which time a road user charge will also be introduced.
Federal Government actions on grid infrastructure
Concerns around the impact of EVs on the energy system are frequently raised, and there is a need for effective integration of EVs into the grid. The Electric Vehicle Council is working with its members, and with the federal, state, and territory governments, on a charging reliability framework designed to address this issue.
As EVs become the dominant form of transport in coming years, drivers should be encouraged to charge during off-peak times to reduce pressure on the grid. There will likely be a tipping point somewhere in the future where governments will need to invest significant public money to augment the electricity network, though it is not anticipated to be in the near future. The Electric Vehicle Council extrapolated a scenario of 3% of cars in 2030 (1.5 million EVs) charging during peak hours and calculated a ~1% impact on peak demand.
The majority of EV charging is expected to occur at home (estimates over 80%). This may be even higher in Wagga Wagga where there is a greater percentage of off-street parking than many metropolitan areas. Charging away from home at a public charger is principally for drivers on longer journeys – either as a quick stop to top up on the way through to somewhere else, or a longer stop at a specific destination.
The table below gives an overview of different charger types.
Level 1 (AC) Trickle (slow) charger |
Level 2 (AC) Destination charger |
Fast Charging (DC) Fast charger |

NSW Government actions on grid infrastructure
As mentioned earlier in this report, increased numbers of EVs will eventually put demand on the electricity grid as more vehicles are plugged in to charge. The NSW Government have committed to ensuring that the increase in EV uptake is appropriately integrated with the electricity system, including with rooftop solar, batteries, and with smart chargers to manage the impact on peak electricity demand. With bidirectional charging capabilities, EV batteries can help support the grid at peak demand times in the future.
Federal Government actions on charging network
Through the Future Fuels and Vehicles Strategy, the Federal Government has committed $2.1 billion to partner with industry to support the uptake of low and zero emissions vehicles. The program will help the shift to future fuel technologies by co-investing in EV charging and hydrogen refuelling infrastructure. Round 1 supported the roll-out of 403 public electric vehicle fast charging stations nationwide.
NSW Government actions on EV ultra-fast charging network
The NSW Government is investing $171m to future proof the EV network. This includes grants which will co-fund charge point operators to install and operate ultra-fast charging stations at 100 km intervals across the state, and every 5 km in metropolitan areas. Wagga Wagga is one of the locations on the NSW Government’s ‘EV super-highways’ with BP (Gumly Gumly) having one 360kW charging unit to service two bays and one 150kW charging unit to service two bays. Tesla (at Glenfield) will have 6 bays and each charging bay will have a rated output of at least 250kW, with 2 bays having a rated output of 350kW.
NSW Government actions on EV fast charging network
When the NSW Government opened it’s ‘Drive Electric NSW EV charging site host expressions of interest’ Council promoted the opportunity to local businesses and also submitted four Council sites for consideration. This information was provided to the private companies participating in the ‘Drive Electric NSW’ fast charging grants. These companies did not wish to pursue the Council sites at that time.
The NSW Government has produced a Fast Charger Master Plan map which analysed a number of key variables to determine the optimum locations and numbers of chargers in NSW. The Master plan indicates the following for Wagga Wagga:
Existing plugs 2022 |
Number of plugs 2023 |
Number of plugs 2026 |
Number of plugs 2031 |
4 |
4 |
14 |
75 |
Zone substation installed capacity 2021 – 29.2 MVA |
Zone substation available capacity 2021 – 98 MVA |
The existing fast chargers indicated in the table above are from when Council partnered with NRMA to allow installation of an EV fast charger at the Cross-Street Carpark in central Wagga Wagga and two additional chargers that EVIE installed at Tarcutta.
While the NSW Government are announcing significant investment in public chargers it is anticipated that additional chargers (fast and ultra-fast) will likely be installed at petrol stations, service centres, supermarkets etc and will be market driven. Companies such as Ampol, BP, Red Rooster and Hungry Jacks have already announced their intentions to do so.
NSW Government actions on EV destination charging network
The NSW Government are investing $20 million to assist eligible Regional NSW Destinations by co-funding the purchase and installation of EV chargers. The grants will encourage the growth of the EV market by:
· Overcoming range anxiety through a widespread EV charging network
· Supporting EV-ready regional destinations across the state
· Supporting the continued growth of our visitor economy
· Ability to cater for an increasing number of EV drivers
Council was successful in its application to install a dual 22 kW EV charging station (due to be completed August 2023) at each of the following Council sites:
· O’Reilly Street Carpark
· Apex Park Lake Albert Carpark
· Visitor Information Centre Carpark
· Bolton Park/Oasis Carpark
Local businesses the Charles Hotel and the Wagga Wagga Country Club also received funding to install 7kw chargers at their premises.
Permissibility of EV charging infrastructure
In addition to the funding streams, there have been recent changes to policies and regulations.This includes new provisions in the National Construction Code to ensure that all new multi-apartment dwellings and commercial developments are future-proofed through a requirement to be ‘EV ready’. Houses or apartments with off-street parking are comparatively easy to retrofit at a later date with an EV charger.
The NSW Government also added an amendment to the NSW State Environmental Planning Policy Transport & Infrastructure (Transport & Infrastructure SEPP) in 2023 dealing exclusively with the installation of electric vehicle charging units.
This SEPP covers the following scenarios:
· Development permitted without consent by or on behalf of public authorities and electricity supply authorities
· Development permitted with consent on ‘relevant public land’ adjacent to residential premises
· Development permitted with consent for buildings used for recharging or exchanging batteries
· Exempt development on certain premises such as a depot or service station
· Exempt development on existing electricity or lighting poles and street furniture by (or on behalf of) public authorities and electricity supply authorities.
Need for the Policy
The Transport & Infrastructure SEPP outlines the permissibility of electric vehicle charging infrastructure and provides a framework of minimum requirements. The Policy provides additional guidance relevant to public land, to ensure a fair and equitable selection of providers and to give added direction as to Council’s specific requirements related to:
· Location
· Installation
· Operation & Maintenance
· Parking
· Decommissioning
· Leasing, Licencing & Fees.
Financial Implications
Fees and charges for Council-owned EV charging stations have been included in the draft Fees and Charges 2023/24 that are currently on public exhibition. Fees, charges and lease agreements for any future EV charging stations will be determined on a site-by-site basis as per the Policy and brought to Council for endorsement.
