Attachments of Ordinary Meeting

Comment	Status *
1) Include separate narratives for each local government area in the final NCRP . The narratives would consist of a context statement provided by each local government authority that summaries housing, economic and employment opportunities as identified in local growth management strategies. Such statements would capture local planning expectations such as Byron Shire's focus on agricultural, creative and tourism industries and maintaining low rise residential in its urban areas (a good example can be found in the South East Queensland Regional Plan 2009-2031).	●
2) Level of Local Government representation on Coordination and Monitoring Committee should ensure: a) there is capacity for at least 1 representative from each subregion; b) the position as a representative is on a rotational basis to enable all local government authorities to participate at given intervals; and c) clarification is provided as to whether it will be an officer or an elected representative	●
3) NCRP Directions/Actions: a) Provide clearer guidance on the implementation aspects for each of the Actions (including indicators/measures for the Plans effectiveness and monitoring) to assist local councils with their forward planning and budgeting The directions and actions that underpin the NCRP framework are very ‘light on’ and lack the specificity of language required to deliver consistent outcomes across the North Coast. No detail is provided on the responsibility, means and timing for the delivery of each action, as well as performance measures to indicate success. As the delivery of certain actions will have resourcing and financial implications for all councils the NCRP should set out a clear framework for their delivery. This will enable councils to consider as part of their meeting ‘fit for the future’ requirements and incorporate in their operational plans	●
4) Clear guidance on document and mapping reviews identified, namely: a) Rationale and terms of reference The NCRP should identify what outcomes are being sought from the review of Urban Design Guidelines and Farmland Mapping Project. b) Timing: Some review actions ideally should be undertaken prior to finalisation of the strategy, such as the Farmland Review Mapping project.	●
5) State and regional policy linkages: the NCRP should include an appendix that lists relevant state and regional policy documents that relate to the delivery of a given NCRP action. As the NCRP has not been developed as an ‘all of government’ regional plan it would be useful to include an appendix listing any state and regional policy documents relating to the delivery of a given NCRP action. An example taken from the Central Queensland Regional Plan is provided in Figure 1 below.	●
6) Community identity and building: The NCRP should include a community engagement framework to govern preparation of local planning / growth management strategies, together with an associated Action to implement this framework.	●
7) LEP Provisions and Housing Diversity: The Standard Template LEP should be amended to enable Councils to identify average dwelling density targets for new urban release areas, as mechanism for delivering greater housing diversity across the region (Action 3.2.1 – p58).	●
8) Sustainable Transport: The NCRP should include a new Action focused on encouraging sustainable transport in the local planning / growth management strategy making processes.	●
9) Strengthen Policy positions under individual goals as follows:
a) Goal 1: A natural environment, Aboriginal and historic heritage that is protected and landscapes that are productive It is recommend that the NCRP: i) identify key ‘landscapes’ for protection on Figures 3 and 7 ii) provide a policy position to guide future planning for composite landscapes and any related actions The NCRP also needs to consider farmland, national parks and state forests at a landscape scale, as a multifaceted productive landscape rather than separate land uses [s13] . Other regional planning areas with similar landscapes such as the Far North Queensland and the Moreton and Sunshine Coast Regions identify composite landscapes using the labels of ‘Landscape and Rural Production Area’ and ‘Inter-urban breaks’ respectively. iii) retain Action from the Far North Coast Regional Strategy for local environmental plans “to include provisions to encourage habitat and corridor establishment in future zoning of Environmental Assets and Rural Land area” iv) include a specific action for world heritage features such as the Gondwana rainforest, that places greater emphasis on avoiding impacts and optimizing conservation outcomes v) include guidelines for local government on heritage investigation, assessment and management based on the five APEC (Aboriginal people, the environment and conservation) principles adopted by OEH: · Spirituality and Connection · Cultural Resource Use · Wellbeing · Caring for Country · Doing Business with Aboriginal People vi) include an additional objective relating to Aboriginal people’s connection with and use of land/country, similar to the Coastal Zone Management Plan guidelines. Such an objective would improve the way the community understands and values its heritage, embedding Aboriginal/traditional culture in mainstream policy and planning. vii) provide a clearer framework for application of ‘State and Regionally Significant Farmland Interim Variation Criteria’ The interim criteria have the potential to be applied in a piecemeal and inconsistent manner and not consider significant farmland in a state and regional context. The application of the criteria as currently provided is very open to interpretation and would benefit from: • more practical case study examples of how the first 3 criteria should be applied (agricultural capability, land use conflict; and infrastructure); and • clarification of the threshold (or other methodology) for determining whether or not mapped state/regionally significant farmland will contribute "significantly” to future agricultural production.	●
b) Goal 2: Focus growth opportunities to created great place to live and work It is recommend that the NCRP: i) include an Action for the State government to work with all councils not just regional cities to improve planning provisions to promote housing diversity and employment opportunities in line with the current FNCRS identification of this area as ‘a region of villages ii) clarify that variation principles can apply to both residential and employment/economic purposes; iii) ‘Urban Growth Area Variation Principles’ (Table 3) include wording to enable councils to vary the respective growth boundaries following identification in an adopted growth strategy; iv) include in the ‘aims on page 36 (dot points ‘2’ and 4’) specific reference to protecting significant farmland, to be consistent with Direction 1.2 Protect and enhance productive farmland (Goal 1). v) give consideration to a review of the Settlement Planning Guidelines to ensure alignment with the NCRP planning directions.	●
c) Goals 1 & 2: i) Ensure message consistency in regard to the actions under both of these goals ¾ namely the aim of protecting significant farmland when identifying future urban and rural residential land in a local strategy.	●
d) Goal 3: Housing choice, with homes that meet the needs of changing communities It is recommend that the NCRP: i) identify West Byron urban release area (Byron Bay) as a priority site for access to the NSW Government’s ‘Housing Acceleration Fund’. ii) recognise the important role of community engagement, local community values and sense of belonging in future growth plans	●
e) Goal 4: A prosperous economy with services and infrastructure f) Goal 5: Improved transport connectivity and freight networks It is recommended that the NCRP incorporate an Action that provides a stronger linkage between land use and infrastructure planning through a framework that supports: i) coordination, prioritising and sequencing of infrastructure through local growth management strategies, budgets and local environmental plans ii) alignment and coordination of infrastructure plans, priority and budgets of state agencies with the NCRP and local government plans iii) development of mechanisms that support the best delivery options iv) better management of consumer demand and behaviour to minimise the need for additional infrastructure services It is recommended that the NCRP include a sustainable tourism ‘framework’ [s14] addressing: (1) localised community consultation and culturally appropriateness as a core principle for large scale tourism (2) the role of small scale tourism of our other towns and villages in the Shire (3) the role of Councils in the development of servicing plans for major annual festivals (4) need for revisions to the regulatory provisions to ensure an appropriate balance between: (a) environmental protection and eco-tourism opportunities expectations of visitors, holiday letting property owners, the local community and impacts on permanent residents including housing /rental access and diminished amenity(b)	●

1. Background

The former ‘Roundhouse’ site has a long standing history that dates back several decades.

The Land was originally part of a dairy farm, but from around 1969 was used as a sales office for the Ocean Shores development and accommodated a sixteen sided circular building – the “Roundhouse”.

The Land was zoned Special Uses 5(a) – Community Purposes under Byron Local Environmental Plan 1988 (LEP 1988) and on 27 July 1990 the Land and Environment Court ordered Council to compulsorily acquire the Land. The land was acquired by Council on 26 July 1991 and the building demolished in 1993.

Rezoned to 2(a) Residential Zone in July 1996, the site was then reclassified ‘operational’ land in March 2002. Development consent for subdivision of the land was granted in April 2003. In July 2014, the land was zoned R2 Low Density Residential under Byron LEP 2014.

Subdivision works consequently commenced and were completed in 2014. The blocks were sold at the end of 2015.

The ‘Roundhouse’ house land asset has been part of Council's Financial Sustainability Plan for the past four years. Developed to restore Council’s long term financial sustainability, the plan reviewed how assets can be better utilised to either release funds into new infrastructure projects or retire debt and save the interest

For many years, the north of the Shire has needed upgraded infrastructure and following the state governments Fit for the Future reforms, Council resolved to reinvest the net income from the land sales back into community assets primarily in the north of Byron Shire.

Net income from the land sales was $3.8 million, of which $0.8M will be spent on new projects and $3.0M on asset renewal projects, north of Brunswick River.

Of the $3.8M:

· $466,700 has already been allocated to the pavement renewal of Kolora Way between Shara Boulevarde and Nathan Court

· $467,268.05 has already been allocated to the new works of the North Ocean Shores Sports Fields

Council at its meeting on 25 February considered a report on how the balance of the funds could be spent and resolved:

1. That the community be invited to consider the following:

a) a shortlist for renewal works as seen in Table 2.

b) 2 options for the proposed $330,000 budget which will include:

- option 1 Waterlily Park Playscape $330,000; and

- option 2 Fern Beach Playground $59,000, South Golden Beach Hall Playground $59,000, Waterlily Park Playscape $100,000 and Devines Hill board walk and amenity improvements $112,000.

2. That the results of the community consultation be reported back to Council.

2. Shortlisted projects

The 13 shortlisted project renewals for community consultation, as determined by Council, included:

3. Consultation approach

Byron Shire Council carried out consultation from Monday 11 April to Monday 9 May, 2016. The purpose of the consultation activities was to inform the community and local residents on the thirteen shortlisted renewal projects options and to provide the community and stakeholders with the opportunity to provide feedback.

The consultation objectives were to:

1. Build relationships with stakeholders in the north of Byron Shire.

2. Encourage residents in north of Byron Shire to review the Council prioritised works shortlist and provide feedback on their support or other recommendations.

3. Work collaboratively to arrive at a list of priority projects to expend the funds derived from the Roundhouse land sales.

4. Encourage the use of and commitment to community facilities and spaces by including local stakeholders in the planning processes.

4. Consultation activities

Community members were encouraged to provide their feedback, leave comments and make submissions at the information stands, online or via mail, email or phone contact with the project team.

5. Consultation results

During the consultation period, Byron Shire Council received 5 submissions from community members via email, phone and mail. A total of 257 online budget allocators were completed and included 172 issues were raised in the submissions received. The online budget allocator allowed the community to spend up to $2.86 million out of a potential $4.9 million. Plus, 5 brainstormer feedback suggestions and 32 map pinpoints suggestions were received.

When reviewing the issues, it is important to note Byron Shire Council will take into account the status of the road asset, its respective renewal priority and community feedback in order to help arrive at a preferred outcome to allocate funding.

5.1 Playgrounds and Open Spaces – quantitative results

From a quantitative perspective, community feedback has shown that the preferred $330,000 spend on Playgrounds and Open Space should be allocated to Option 2 with the funds spread over a number of projects (refer Chart 1) with 75% of the respondents choosing this option.

Chart 1.

5.2 Road Renewals – quantitative results

On the issue of Road Renewals, the results were considerably closer with support for the eleven short listed projects ranging between 7% and 11% (refer Chart 2 below).

Chart 2.

The net income from the ‘Roundhouse’ land sales to be allocated in this area totalled $2.56 million; when taking into account the cost of the individual projects and community feedback, the road renewal projects would be prioritised in the following order:

Road	Cost	Running total
· Beach Avenue, South Golden Beach (Full Length)	$307,200
· The Esplanade, New Brighton (Full Length)	$216,000
· Orana Rd, Ocean Shores (Full Length)	$1,040,000
· River St, New Brighton (Full Length)	$466,800	$2,030,000
· Coomburra Cres, Ocean Shores (Full Length)	$714,000	$2,744,000
· Helen Street east of canal, South Golden Beach	$396,000	$3,140,000

5.3.1 On-line budget allocator - qualitative community feedback

1. Key words	Comments	Council response
1. Balemo Drive	Balemo Drive Ocean Shores should be under consideration for a serious upgrade. It was torn apart by the heavy-vehicles using it as an access road during the highway construction and has not been fixed properly since. The subsequent pothole damage made worse by repeated heavy rains and continual patching is ridiculous and dangerous, as are most if the main arterial roads throughout ocean shores.		After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016.
2. Balemo Drive	Please add Balemo Drive (north end). Playgrounds need to have disabled access to play ground/parks including the play equipment. Pathways need to be accessible by wheelchairs - no gravel. Transfer hoist required at playgrounds to shift child/person onto the equipment - will protect injuries to the carer and disabled person.		After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016.
3. Balemo Drive	There are other roads and streets of high volume traffic use eg Balemo Drive, which would benefit from road funding. I would have liked to know more about the park budgets in terms of what will be built for dollars outlayed.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016.
4. Beach Ave	Beach Avenue - Dangerous			Recommended in report to Council.
5. BMX Track - Water Lilly	Please include A BMX track at Waterlily Park. Very low infrastructure cost. Very high benefits			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016. Will be considered outside of this project.
6. Bukgoon Cres	Bukgoon Crescent - repair road.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016.
7. Bundaree Way + Devines Hill	First Priority Please - reseal Bundaree Way, Ocean Shores - Repair cul de sac and centre garden. Reseal Road to Devines Lookout and carpark Devines Hill Road			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016.
8. Coomburra Cres	I consider the work on Coomburra to be of utmost importance due to the safety issues involved. This is a very steep street with sweeping corners that are very uneven. I also consider the allocation of funds to waterlily park important. This space has great potential but is currently difficult to access and poorly maintained.			Recommended in report to Council.
9. Coomburra Cres	I have lived off of Coomburra for 20 years the road is in a terrible and dangerous state. I would love to see this road resealed. Travelling on this road is highly undesirable as there is more pot holes then road and to see the continual re fill of holes seems like a bad way to handle the situation. Surely it would be cost effective to fix it properly. I also think that it devalues our properties. I could go on and on but I think I would only be stating the obvious. Please fix our road. kind regards Jackie M			Recommended in report to Council.
10. Coomburra Cres	Coomburra Crescent is my most immediate concern. The surface is in a very bad condition which does no good to vehicles, but ... most importantly, there will be an accident eventually as people often drive down the wrong side of the road to avoid the bad surface.			Recommended in report to Council.
11. Coomburra Cres	Just fix Coomburra Crescent ASAP please			Recommended in report to Council.
12. Coomburra Cres	Would love to see Coomburra Cres fixed. It's bad to drive and walk along			Recommended in report to Council.
13. Coomburra Cres	Coomburra Cres. Ocean Shores should be of the highest of priorities from a safety point of view, this road is dangerous. Inderwong Ave. Ocean Shores is in terrible condition and should have made the list. Roads should definitely be the priority.			Recommended in report to Council.
14. Coomburra Cres	This road is one, if not the most, travelled in Ocean Shores. It is very dangerous with speeding vehicles often on the wrong side of the road dodging potholes. It is only a matter of time before a fatality will occur.			Recommended in report to Council.
15. Coomburra Cres	Coomburra Cres - This has to be the biggest priority, as this road is extremely dangerous			Recommended in report to Council.
16. Coomburra Cres	HIGHEST PRIORITY IS COOMBURRA ..IT IS A RISK EVERY TIME WE DRIVE ON THERE AS CARS VEER ALL OVER THE ROAD TO AVOID HOLES..ORANA ROAD ALSO NEEDS REPAIR			Recommended in report to Council.
17. Coomburra Cres + Kolora Way shared path	My number one road priority is Coomburra Crs. I would also have selected the shared path along Kolora Way to Redgate Road for kids to cycle across that dangerous bridge and skinny road, but it was not on the list of options. Some one will kill a cyclist or pedestrian there one day.			Coomburra Cres recommended in report to Council, Kolora Way path not recommended.
18. Coomburra Cres + Kolora Way shared path	I live on Coomburra Cres and it is a disgrace. It is a major bus route and is in desperate need of a full reconstruction. The noise from utes, trailers and trucks rattling down the hill is constant. Orana road is not far behind.			Coomburra Cres recommended in report to Council, Kolora Way path not recommended.
19. Coomburra Road + Kiyung Court	Would also be good for you to fix the roads of Coomburra road, such as Kiyung Court, very bad at the moment needs all of the potholes fixed not just a few?			Coomburra Cres recommended in report to Council, Kiyung Court not recommended.
20. Cycleway	Bicycle paths should have priority in an environment such as ours to encourage healthy, non polluted living. Children have very few safe options. At least put cycle paths on main roads.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
21. Cycleway / footpath	I read the NSW government has committed $37 million to pathways and cycleways in NSW, including Northern Rivers. I live in Ocean Shores, where it is impossible to walk anywhere except down Raja Rd to the shops. We are desperate for a pathway along Warrambool Rd to the beach, or even to Devines Hill. In Ocean Shores, you have the choice of walking on the road or walking on what is usually a very boggy greensward. This could be such a healthy place to live if it had walking paths. It would also increase the friendliness of the community, rather than watching everyone drive by in cars. It is time to make walking a priority in Ocean Shores. Then the road would be used less!			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
22. Cycleway/footpath	Fixing the roads in this area is a priority and building a connecting bike path from the Old Hwy via Balemo Rd to Orana Rd is also important.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
23. Cycleway/footpath	Another project I would like to see included are more walking and cycle paths to encourage more fitness opportunities in the area. The paths along the beach on the Gold Coast is a great example of what I envisage here.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
24. Cycleway/footpath	More cycling path infrastructure, Helen, Elizabeth streets on the west side of the canal need work too.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
25. Cycleway/footpath	Bike path from South Golden Beach to Brunswick Heads			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
26. Cycleway/footpath	Bike path link missing between Kolora Way and New Brighton Road. Road calming and pedestrian infrastructure needed on bridge - HIGH RISK LOCATION.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
27. Cycleway/footpath	Council's highest priority for infrastructure works in 2003 was cycleways to provide active transport across the Shire, and you completed a Bike Plan in June 2008. If you're truly sincere in providing proper playground facilities in Ocean Shores, then you need to link the RTA cycleway from Brunswick Valley Way, along Balemo Drive (eastern side) and continuing along Orana Rd, (including a road crossing at the entrance to Waterlily Park) continuing along Orana, turning right down Yengarie/Rajah Rd to the Ocean Shores Shopping Centre. Our rates and roads2recovery should be funding our road reconstruction, NOT sale of Council properties in Ocean Shores. We would estimate the funding for these much needed cycleway to be $600,000 to finally provide safer, healthier active transport for the north of the Shire.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
28. Cycleway/footpath	Cycleway - Balemo Drive through to Orana Road to Waterlily Playscape			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
29. Cycleway/footpath	shared bike ways/paths need to be extended and linked as a priority of a green council			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
30. Cycleway/footpath	I believe that the community should have had more in put into the projects that are being considered. Apologies if this did happened, I definitely didn't know about it if it did. Council also needs to ensure that they can maintain the current and any new infrastructure that is completed. I also believe the inclusion of cycle foot paths from North Ocean Shores connecting to Ocean Shores Shopping centre would be a great benefit the community. This should also include sufficient street lighting.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
31. Cycleway/footpath - Orana Road	Please address cycle way footpaths along Balemo drive to Orana road full length of both roads down yengarie way to rajah road To connect existing footpaths at the ocean shores centre. We have only be waiting for 8 years for this to happen also using all the funds on road repair is just as waste as in 12 months time they will all be full of holes again and there will be nothing to show where the money went. Time for some badly needed permanent infrastructure for the whole community. Thank you.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.

Cycleway/footpath - Orana Road	A footpath/Cycle path along Orana Road down to the beach. the path would need to start at the end of Warrambool (corner of Warrambool and Orana) down the steep hill toward the beach to the New Brighton Bridge.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
33. Cycleway/footpath - Orana Road	Cycle way = Pathway = along eastern side of Balemo Drive onto Orana Road to Ocean Shires Shopping Centre. Ocean Shores Lookout - raised walkway and lookout. Water Lilly Park pond rejuvenation.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
34. Cycleway/footpath / Redgate Road	With regard to option 2 playground options I would suggest that the Devines Hill board walk NOT be done and that the available funds be spent improving the cycleway from the South Golden Beach hall to the New Brighton Rd as this is a highly used cycleway which needs upgrading. The resurfacing of Beach Ave should also be done from the curb and gutter cut-off to the north to the levy crossing on Redgate Rd as this is the primary walking and cycleway used by all age groups in SGB.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects. Beach Dr is recommended in the report to Council.
35. Cycleway/footpath + lighting	Road renewal should not rely on the funding gained from the one off sale of land. Road renewal should be provided from recurrent Shire funding or sought from other special State or Federal funds. What is budgeted from recurrent Council funds that would match any use of these funds for that purpose? I wanted to express a high priority need not reflected in the choices. Ocean Shores has no proper walking path/cycle ways on most of the important walking and cycling routes. There are no verges on the road and it is very unsafe to walk and cycle to the shops and beach. Orana and Rajah Roads at the very least should have this infrastructure. Better lighting at night is also an important security issue. People should be able to walk or cycle safely and securely in their local area rather than relying on cars all the time.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
36. Cycleway/footpath + playground	This road stuff should be council's responsibility anyway. Not a good way of spending bonus funds. How about a bike path? How about a safe path to get from the path at the end of Shara blvd to the path at the end of rajah Rd? Please allocate maximum funds to water Lily park. It is very sad. Fern beach already has tennis/basketball court that kids can skate on. Water Lily only has a fenced off court that kids can't use and pitiful play equipment for so many families.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
37. Cycleway/footpath + Toilet	Bikeways for Ocean Shores - not going up and down hills. Plans already there in council. Toilet at Shara Community Gardens			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
38. Cycleway/footpath Balemo	Foot/bike path on Balemo Dr			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
39. Devines Hill	Remove weeds from edge of Devines Hill. More green spaces needed. Devines Hill existing board walk needs cleaning.			Comments noted. Open space staff tasked with these maintenance actions
40. Dogs / toilets	More designated beach dog walking areas. Complete overhaul of all public amenities.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
41. Drainage	Please keep the drains working and the roads safe			Drainage not within the decision of Council for these funds. Road renewal will increase road safety.
42. Drainage	Brunswick st, New Brighton drain upgrade			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
43. Drainage	Some drainage in the area would again be a high priority			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
44. Drainage - Clifford Street	We were promised improvements to drainage front & back in Clifford St,(even chose fence!) and I'm told it's further delayed. Health hazard due to mosquitoes & flooding in wet weather.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
45. Drainage - Yamble Drv	Yamble Drive at corner of Gin Gin - under road drain pipe needs a look at - has separated sections of drainage.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
46. Drainage SGB	New roads for South Golden Beach MUST have DRAINS otherwise they will wash out. Sick and tired of having deep water around my house - MOSQUITOES, SMELL, MOULD ETC. DO NOT want to use my aged pension to fund millionaires rock walls for their private properties.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
47. Drainage SGB	Robin Street & Beach Street upgrading with some drainage, not just patching up.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
48. Engagement	I feel that the community has genuine suspicions that they are being dealt a 3 card trick in that much of the work proposed should have been undertaken as part of expected [overdue] work not carried out in previous years by a Council which is strongly Byron-centric. I have lived in Ocean Shores for over 20 years and in all this time we have not had an effective voice on Council and probably never will because of the influence of self interested minority groups who continue to divide the community to pursue their own "band-wagon"causes, the Roundhouse sale being only 1 instance of these peoples negative effect on progress within the community. Perhaps some of the money available could be used to set up a truly independent and democratic Community group although I fear that the current "politicers" would find a way of controlling such a body and it would therefore be ineffective.			Feedback will be reported to Council
49. Engagement	It would be great if you actually do listen to your rate payers this time. Thanks			Feedback will be reported to Council
50. Engagement	Safety first! The north of the Shire is lacking a lot of amenities and a central gathering point, such a shame the Roundhouse project did not get the support to go ahead. For issues and infrastructure that need community discussion, would Council please set up community forums and not instead give associations with no membership base a right to speak on anyone else's behalf.			Feedback will be reported to Council
51. Eureka Way, Tindarra, Narrogal Court	Repair Eureka Way, Tindarra, Narrogal Court = all need resurfacing. Ocean Shores looks like nobody cares. No reserves are mowed. Byron is disgusting. All the roads need doing.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
52. Footpath	Maybe consider finishing footpath from ocean shores shopping village down to Brunswick bridge footpath			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
53. Footpath - Balemo Drv and Orana Road	It seems all suburbs in The Byron Shire except Ocean Shores have footpaths. I would like to see a footpath along Balemo drive and Orana road connecting onto the footpath that runs along Brunswick Valley Way past the football field. Mothers need to be able to safely walk their baby in prams and children need to be safe near roads. Road maintenance is a basic council duty and does not add to our amenities.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
54. Footpath / Playground	Didn't see the option in the budget but some sort of footbridge walkway connecting Rajah Rd to North Head Rd and the beach would be great. Also, as per my budget being massively under, I would go with both playground/amenities improvement options - full $330k playground for waterlily park, and the other $330k for the other playgrounds + lookout boardwalk improvements. Thanks you.			Options are limit to $330k Water Lily Park Playscape or Fern Beach playground $59,000, SGB Hall Playground, Water Lily Park Playscape $100,000 and Devines Hill $112,000
55. Footpath	More footpaths needed. Warrambool Road			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
56. Footpaths + North Head Road	My other funding options are: 1. Paved footpaths in the area leading to the Ocean Shores Country Club. At present this entire area is very dangerous for pedestrians. 2. Resurface, kerb & channel North Head Road. This road carries a lot of beach traffic and parking is a problem during peak periods.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects. North Head Rd not recommended in report to Council.
57. Funding - general	I am pleased to see some priority being given to Ocean Shores but hope this allocation of funds from the Roundhouse sale is on top of the projects that our rates money would normally fund. Just spending Roundhouse funds and nothing else would be a travesty of justice to the north of the shire.			Funding is additional funding for these projects.
58. Gloria Street	I was not given the chance to attach a dollar figure to the "option" choice that I made, which was to add Gloria Street in SGB to my other choices. I'm not sure my comment will go with that choice of mine, so I'm repeating it here.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
59. Gloria Street	I was unable to give a dollar amount for the option that I chose: fix Gloria Street along with Peter, Robin, and Helen in South Golden, but I chose it anyway and think it should be done with the other streets in SGB.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
60. Gloria Street	Be nice if Gloria St could also be re paved, properly so it does not get potholed when it rains. There has always been some argument that the bad roads do act as a traffic calming, so maybe with new paving traffic calming should also be a consideration.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
61. Gloria Street	Gloria Street (east) cul de sac sealed section stops before my frontage (number 36) causing mud and grass to accumulate (35 years rate payer) - need this fixed.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
62. Gloria Street	Aren't you forgetting Gloria Street in South Golden Beach? That badly needs fixing too! Regarding the playgrounds, my grandchild needs sails or some sort of sun protection on the local playgrounds. I'm surprised they are not already in place.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
63. Gloria Street	Why is my street ie Gloria St not included in the streets that need re-surfacing? Is this some kind of joke?			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
64. Gloria Street	Gloria Street South Golden Beach. The roads near the school at Ocean Shores.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
65. Gloria Street + drainage	For some reason Gloria St is not even mentioned in this survey??? Being in the same condition, area and also without drainage seems it should be done with the rest of the streets??			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
66. Gloria Street + drainage	I have been in constant contact with Council about the state of drainage and the road surface at Gloria Street, South Golden Beach, for 34 years. I am astounded that it still hasn't been considered in this budget decision even though the road is in the same state as Peter, Helen and Robin Streets. I want to see the rates I have been paying for 34 years used in my local area, especially the street I live on. Please allocate budget to Gloria Street immediately. I may not be around the reap the benefits of any upgrades that 2023!			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
67. Gloria Street + Foothpaths/cycleways	I'm stunned that Gloria St, South Golden Beach, isn't included as an option! It's in just as bad a shape as Peter, Helen and Robin Streets and gets a lot of traffic as it leads directly to the start of the dog beach. Other options that should definitely be considered: - replacing the footpath/ cycle path from Sth Golden to New Brighton - creating a footpath/ cycle way along Kolora Way to link up to the existing one at Red Gate Rd (not sure if this is included in the Kolora Way option but I don't think the road actually needs upgrading/ widening).			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016. Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
68. Goondaloo	Goondaloo has uneven pavement, potholes. Needs attention.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
69. Helen Street + drainage	Helen Street - Always been a big drainage problem here with mosquito borne viruses likely in huge areas of stagnant water. Time to choose a strategy and make it work - drain to road and have gutters and under drive drain, drain to rear and clear canal style drains or remake culvert drains in grass verges. Edges also need repair to give more safety to bikes and pedestrians and parking.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
70. Internet	I actually don't care too much about the identified priorities and just chose the cheapest. I did register to do my own budget but the link didn't work and I don't have the time to muck around and get it sorted so here I am. We live near the lookout at 20 Warrambool Rd Ocean shores and cannot get internet! Seriously! Neither can our neighbours. Apparently council has limited influence. Really? I find this absolutely ridiculous. We pay our rates like everyone else but unlike most others in the shire we have no internet option since Linknet went out of business at end of January this year. This was mainly due to NBN rolling out... the irony?! NBN won't be coming to our street for at least another 2 years. Absolutely not good enough! I study online and work online. I end up at the library or at WIFI cafes most days. Today I am in the library at Byron (which is only open 3 hours on Saturday!) which takes me away from my young family just so I can get some work done. IT is creating a lot of stress in our family. We have our mobile phone internet data which we can share with our computers and other devices but it is painfully slow and usually I give up trying. Surely there must be something that can be done. The reason our household and neighbours cannot get service is due to a few trees being in the line of site to the relay tower at St Helena. Wires Broadband AKA World Without Wires are happy to speak with council and said that another relay tower or the trees being removed would mean we (and our neighbours) could get internet. We are thinking of moving but are trapped really as who wants to live in a house without decent internet in this day and age??? Footpaths on Warrambool and Orana Roads should also be a priority			Internet issues outside decision of Council for road renewal projects. Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
71. kerb and guttering	if you are considering the roads in Sth golden bch, you must add curb and guttering, the four streets Helen, peter, robin and Gloria, are third world, every time it rains water pools, and becomes a health hazard, ie liza virus, certain residents have raised their driveways causing their neighbours to flood as the water has nowhere to go. one house at 13 Helen street has taken over the council nature strip filled it with gravel and has turned it into a car park.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
72. Kiah Close	Please please please consider Kiah Close for a new road...it is far worse than most of the road renewal suggestions I have seen here. Surely you aren't going to make decisions based on the noisiest wheel theory?? Someone from the Council needs to drive around all the streets of Ocean Shores and make an intelligent non biased decision on priorities to spend this money			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
73. Kolora + Orana + River St + The Esplanade / Jetty and de-silt Marshalls Creek	Kolora Way - should have been done years ago and not from Roundhouse money. Orana Road - this is the main artery from Ocean Shores to New Brighton. River Street - main artery from New Brighton to North Ocean Shores. The Esplanade - main artery through New Brighton. Small Jetty opposite Yum Yum Cafe and second one at back of the Ocean Shores Tavern. De-silt Marshall's Creek to reduce flooding.			Some of these roads in report recommended to Council and others not. Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
74. Kolora Way	Include approaches to Kolora Way Bridge			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016.
75. Kolora Way - pedestrian walkway	Dear Council, Firstly congratulations on this initiative and public consultation. I just want to check that the works planned for Kolora Way from Natan to New Brighton Road would include a pedestrian walkway beside the road in this area. There is a very dangerous section leading up to and after the road bridge on New Brighton road. The bridge it self has a small pedestrian path attached, but the road before and after is very narrow and there is no where to walk without stepping out into the narrow road. A lot of people use this road for walking and running, as do cyclists etc. This is the biggest priority in Ocean Shores that I can see. It really needs to be fixed before someone is hit by a car. The traffic speed there is 60km p/h so there is not a great deal of time to take precautions as people drive around the bend at 60km p/h. The other thing I noted today when visiting the New Brighton Farmers market, is the state of the public toilets. In the means there are no locks on either the door into the bathroom or into the toilet cubicle. It looks like it hasn't been painted or maintained in a very long time. The toilet was reasonable clean, but could really do with an overhaul considering how many people use this facility for sports and markets. Thanks very much,			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
76. Kolora Way - pedestrian walkway	Hello....... I was disappointed that I could not choose an option to: Continue the pedestrian pathway on Kolora Way. (I had to click on a random option, which is not 'my say', in order to raise this issue, so please dont take my choice into consideration, as they are not priority)..... PRIORITY NUMBER ONE: The pedestrian/bike path ends just before the traffic bridge (heading south on Kolora Way). Pedestrians and cyclists continuing along Kolara Way, are forced to step out onto the very narrow road before we can join the path again as the erosion around the creek has removed all trace of a path. My 3 year old son, fell into the swamp a couple of years ago, as I was doing my best to keep him on the extreme left side of the road. There is approx 5-10 meters where there is literally no path/ground for pedestrians to walk on. Please. please. fix this, it is an accident waiting to happen. thank you for you time. much appreciate.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
77. Kolora Way - pedestrian walkway	The dangerous "bridge" at the end of Kolora Way should be fixed.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
78. Kolora Way bridge footpath	REQUEST FOR FOOTPATH - desperate for footpath from corner Kolora Way and Larclar Crt to New Brighton (over the Bridge) to New Brighton Shops - there is no footpath on the Road. Bikes and Pedestrians have near misses and accidents with cars - I myself have fallen twice and sprained my ankle on uneven surfaces because there are no footpaths.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
79. Kooringa Court	Kooringa Court - huge hole at end of cul de sac.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
80. Kooringa Court	Kooringa Court to be considered.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016

82. Left Bank Road	I never go to ocean shores so have no view on what roads need to be fixed making this exercise a little pointless. I want you to fix up left bank road, the top bit of which is a disgrace. Most of it was re -surfaced recently but bizarrely mostly the bits that didn't need it!			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
83. Lyons Lookout	Lookout at Lyons Hills 'Lyons Lookout' road access badly potholed needs attention. Tongarra Road also potholed. Tongarra needs a rebuild.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
84. Maintenance / playgrounds	All the roads in North Byron are pretty disgraceful, actually, but surely their maintenance should be part of the council's normal budget...? I feel that, whichever roads are fixed with the money, the main priority should be a great playspace for all the kids that live here and currently don't have an interesting, safe area to go to. It seems crazy that we have to get in the car and drive somewhere to find a good playground. If we could have something a bit like Knox Park in Murwillumbah, that would be fabulous.			Both options 1 and 2 provide funding for a Playscape at Water Lily Park and option 2 provides for playgrounds at South Golden Beach
85. Mia Court	It would be outrageous if Council spent so much money at Waterlily Park and didn't include Mia Crt and South Golden Beach Hall Playgrounds.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
86. Mia Court	...with some of the remaining funds to go to sun-shades for Mia Court and SGB Community Hall and other playgrounds.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
87. Misc	I still feel the Roundhouse site should have been left to the people of Ocean Shores. Residents of the other communities in Byron Shire have no idea what it is like to live in a community with no heart, no centre and very few options for amenities and opportunities to connect with their fellow residents. This is especially true for the young people in Ocean Shores of which there are many.			Feedback will be reported to Council
88. Misc - Byron Bay	I'd like to know more about what funds will be spent on Byron Bay town; especially the roads in the residential area			Roads for 2016/17 are listed on Council website.

91. Misc - maintenance	Care more about other parts of Byron shire not just Byron bay			Feedback will be reported to Council
92. Misc - remove rock walls at Readings Bay	PATHS!!! ROCKWALLS @ READINGS BAY ETC TAKEN OUT. THANK YOU.			Request outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
93. Misc - River	Cleaning of the river.			Request outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
94. New Brighton - general	It is far too easy for people to speed through New Brighton making it very dangerous for pedestrians and also very noisy for residents. the footpaths are frequently used as car parks which mean pedestrians and cyclists are forced to walk on the road. Speed mitigation and reduction of traffic flow is critical in recognition that this is a small village and the road is not suitable to carry high volumes of traffic.			Request outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
95. North Head Road	North Head Road is very busy with traffic to the car park at the end of the bitumen carrying walkers (and dogs) and fishers to the beach all day long. It needs to be rebuilt completely. The idea of putting minor side streets in South Golden Beach on your list and omitting North Head Road is ludicrous. How many cars a day go down North Head Road compared to Helen Street? Are you serious?			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
96. North Head Road + Pacific St	Improved and increased parking for access to New Brighton Beach - area at Pacific St entrance and from North Head Road access points. Commence road surfacing - North Head Road - to emergency access point as a start. Drainage easement form the Esplanade through Pacific Street to Marshalls Creek in Pacific Street has completely silted up and needs urgent work to remove trees.			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
97. Ocean Shores board walk / Youth sailing school	At least 80% of the suggested projects are located in New Brighton and South Golden Beach. I understand that locals in these suburbs are way more vocal. Would love to see more balance in future suggested projects based on # of residents in Ocean Shores, regardless their lack of voice. Also, would love to see allocation of more funding towards facilities projects on the expense of road infrastructure - primarily projects that will increase accessibility to public spaces in Ocean Shores. For example - a boardwalk along public spaces of the river (behind the shopping centre), or a youth sailing school in the North bank of the river, opposite the Marina in Brunswick Heads .			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
98. Orana Road	Please come up with a permanent fix for the potholes in Orana Road. It is constantly an issue.			Recommended in report to Council.
99. Orana Road	Orana Road only needs to be part done leading up to Warrambool Rd. The repairs to roads don't hold. Another method/material needs to be used or a difference provider who can do more lasting repair.			Recommended in report to Council.
100. Other than roads	It's a shame that this money has to be spent mostly on roads and not something more interesting. A lot of these roads are far worse than other parts of the shire so it's strange that the roundhouse sale had to happen before money could be allocated to fixing them.			Request for other assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
101. Other than roads	Roundhouse should never have been sold. Cultural facilities should have taken priority. Private ownership = locked away from public. Tender process was a shemozzle.			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
102. Pacific Esplanade	Pacific Esplanade, South Golden Beach			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016

104. Parking	New Brighton beach is the centrepiece of the north of the shire, but it is hobbled by an acute lack of parking space.			Request outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
105. Parks	Seems a pity to spend money from selling a community asset on road works. Even though we are desperate for work to be done on the roads, there should be a roads budget which covers this. Parks, and reserves could do with more funding than suggested in this proposal.			Request outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
106. Parks + Coomburra	It would be nice to have parkland put along side the Ocean Shores Shopping village there is no access to the river for the young people. A pedestrian Crossing from the Community centre across to shopping centre. Young children and elderly people are taking their lives into their hands crossing a now busy road. And it would be good to have speed bumps in Coomburra Crescent if you repair it as it is a race track now and would be worse when the road is repaired			Request outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
107. Peter Street	Peter Street - These roads are worse than anywhere I the shire except track to Minyon Falls and that’s a toss up. People don't have safe access to their houses. Most cars are forced by huge holes not to drive on the road. Highly dangerous for people, pets and property			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
108. Peter Street	Peter Street is absolutely appalling. Whilst on holiday visiting family there, I tried to walk from Robin Street to Peter Street just as it became dark. I had my baby strapped to my body in a baby carrier as I figured this was my safest option considering the condition of the roads. Whilst walking I tripped several times in the many pot holes in the roads however one pot hole in particular on Peter Street brought me crashing down falling on top of my baby. My poor little girl received a severe cut to her head, and bruising and cuts on her left hand. I twisted both my knee and my ankle, rendering me unable to walk for the remainder of my holiday. I was hysterically upset knowing that I had hurt my little girl but also in much pain from my injuries. Byron Council are lucky that I have not pressed charges!			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
109. Philip Street	You missed Philip Street South Golden Beach from your list. Philip Street is in dire need of complete resurfacing also. How about including that one on your list please??			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
110. Pine Ave (Mullumbimby)	Pine Avenue in Mullum is of high priority. Half the road is a shocker!!			Location not in the north of the Shire.
111. Playground	Water lily park is the worst park for children and it desperately needs funding to be improved. I visit the park nearly everyday because I have absolutely no other options of where to take my children. It is disgraceful.			In addition to the options presented there is an additional budget bid for park infrastructure. Maintenance activities within the park have been increased and will continue.
112. Playground	A park at South Golden Beach really needed and the roads are in a desperate state.			Option 2 provides budget for a new playground at South Golden Beach Hall.
113. Playground	We really need a park great park for our kids at water lily. I've got 4 boys and they get so bored of the couple of crappy things they have for the kids they ask to go home 15 minutes after we get to the park.			Water Lily Park is acknowledged as an important park for the local community. Funds are provided with both options presented.
114. Playground	What sort of kids playground can we get for $59,000? It is difficult to make a decision based on dollars alone. I am a local resident (& rate payer) with a 3yr old daughter, we spend much of our time visiting parks outside of this area (mostly going to the Tweed Shire) because there are no decent playgrounds in the Ocean Shores area.			Where funds are allocated, the local community will be consulted on the final design of the playground.
115. Playground	Even though I am part of the waterlily Playscape group I would like to see the $330k split evenly across the whole community. Our community has been divided too much and I would like to see this funding bring our community together with all of the separate areas benefitting.			Comment noted. Option 2 provides for the option of additional open space infrastructure funding.
116. Playground	The south side of ocean shores does not have any public parks for recreation. Future should consider purchase of the Baptist church for a future library, dog and children’s playground. There could be a fenced playground at the front of the hall and there is a side playground for dogs. There is also room for a carpark. The Brunswick library is too small, no break out rooms, has no carpark and has no room to move. The Brunswick library land/church has high property value, compared to Ocean Shores. Purchase of the Baptist Church which has an already large building plus the additional land footprint is planning for the growth of the North Byron Community. The Ocean Shores Community Centre is under high demand during peak times after school 3pm until 7:30pm. The building also has no front entrance or connection to the street of Rajah Road. A front entrance with public art of the story of Ocean Shores from indigenous, the dairy settlers, and the development of OS into the community today is suggested to assist with giving Ocean Shores the identity it needs. Also an extension of the meeting room and change of flooring and some small consult rooms and public seating is suggested. Thanks you for allowing the community to love Ocean Shores!			Comments noted. These works are not included within the decision of Council of how to spend these funds.
117. Playground	Add the surplus to the Waterlily park			Noted, Option 1
118. Playground	Waterlily Park to have a small playground, no cycle way, preference for Botanical Garden, picnic areas, crush granite walkways.			Separate to the options presented, funding is also sort for infrastructure that supports intergenerational use of this park.
119. Playground	With Playground and Amenities Option 2, everyone gets a bit of the pie. Main roads like Kolora, Beach, Coomburra and Orana are more important, we all drive on them. Plus my budget choices leave $30K left over to go towards Water Lilly Park which is our largest Park in the north and so desperately deserves it.			Option 2 supports this view.
120. Playground	I would allocate more funds to local playground amenities for children to build a significant and up to date exploration/playspace in south golden Beach I would allocate more funds towards a large explosion/play area for South Golden Beach which is very poorly serviced in this area. Resurfacing roods is important but it will be useless unless the street drainage issues are addressed. Helen Street east has no piped gutter drainage and floods each time it rains. Any resurfacing work will be impacted by this.			Option 2 provides for a $59,000 budget allocation for a playground at SGB. In the event that Council resolve this option, further consultation will be undertaken.
121. Playground	We need our playgrounds to have covers so our kids don't get sunburnt/we can take our kids there even when the sun is shining! Also the South Golden Beach Community Centre playground should be replaced. Thank you!			Option 2 provides funding for SGB playground. Covers for playgrounds acknowledged as adding amenity and sun protection. Such an asset is regularly installed as funding is made available as part of Councils budget process
122. Playground/skate park	OPTION 3 - Playground/skate park in South Golden Beach to cater for kids of all ages who can't access alternative recreational facilities doe to lack of public transport. Plus Pacific Esplanade South Golden Beach. Street West of Capricornia Canal.			Option 2 provides funding for a playground at SGB
123. Playgrounds / cycleways	I find this choice difficult because the works at Waterlily Park are much more than a playscape. Waterlily Park requires proper maintenance, drainage, footpath for pushing prams, seating, regular dredging to create a viable waterway. BIKE PATHS!!!! Yamble Drive - Nature Strip is becoming impassable.			This consultation is about allocation of funds for two options. Additional budget bids separate to this process have been made via Councils annual budget process.
124. Redgate Road	Complete cycleway from Rangal Road along Beach Ave to join Redgate Road			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016

127. Redgate Road / cycleway/footpath SGB	This site wouldn't accept my $350,000 balance for upgrade of Redgate Road footpath from the beach to New Brighton. A skate part at South Golden Beach hall is not appropriate in the proposed position and the footpath/cycle way would be of far greater benefit to the community			Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
128. Redgate Road / Drainage	renew Redgate road surface. As a priority connect the drainage system in Helen street and the eastern end of Redgate road			After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016l. Provision of new drainage assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
129. Redgate Road / Kolora Road	Redgate Road, New Brighton, needs to be done - there is a missing bike link at the Kolora Way bridge and inadequate footpath amenity. Terrace Street has no camber and needs work.

130. River Street	River Street - Worry about the lack of separation of pathways and other amenities from this road.			Recommended in report to Council.
131. River Street	River Street - Absolutely essential to fix this road properly ... and cheaper in the long run than the patching/ potholing/ patching cycle we have experienced for years.			Recommended in report to Council.

133. Roads - general	Fixing roads in the area is a priority.			The road renewal projects will do this for the roads selected.
134. Roads - general	The kids in this area have plenty of playgrounds considering they have our marvellous beach canal and river to explore. They need safer roads and paths to ride without cars having to weave their way around the pot holes nearly missing kids doing the same thing.			The road renewal projects will do this for the roads selected.
135. Roads - general	South Golden Beach roads are in such desperate need for an upgrade as are all of the parks in the area			The road renewal projects will do this for the roads selected.
136. Roads - general	I notice we MUST have one of the playground options in our budget, I feel this is putting the cart before the horse. We need to fix the Shire's roads as a first priority, and when I say fix I don't mean filling potholes with a bit of tar and jumping on it. As our Council, spending our money, you need to be mindful of the ratepayer’s priorities. The condition of the roads in this Shire are a disgrace, we have become the pothole capital of Australia.			The road renewal projects will do this for the roads selected.
137. Roads - general	Why are the improvements limited to the proceeds from the sale of the Roundhouse site? Not to mention the blocks were sold for less than their real value. The council made $500K in three months from paid parking - why not use some of those funds and complete all the projects?			Decision of Council of how to spend these funds.
138. Roads - general	Roads are very bad in ocean shores			The road renewal projects will do this for the roads selected.

144. Roads - general	I've opted for the options which I think affect the greatest number of people.			Noted.
145. Roads - general	The council's rate base from Ocean Shores/ South Golden/ New Brighton is huge. Spend OUR money here. There is a lot of anger in the community that council have sold our land (for less than market value), land that could have been a lovely park/ community space to fund short term road fixes that should be done anyway. There is plenty of money from our rates, so why not just fix our roads? Some of the roads, such as in South Golden Beach are worse than third world. We desperately need the roads fixed. Wouldn’t it be nice to include drainage, footpaths, and improved amenities along the way? You only have to travel as far as Tweed shire to see how nice a park/ beach/ walkway could be!			The road renewal projects will do this for the roads selected.
146. Roads - general + beach amenities	I hope the trough connecting roads are prioritised. I think some of the beach areas could do with showers and some toilet upgrades would be nice. Not sure if this comes under this funding or another area.			The road renewal projects will do this for the roads selected Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
147. Roads - general + footpaths	All of the raids in our Byron Shire area need upgrading! Street lights and footpaths.			The road renewal projects will do this for the roads selected Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
148. Roads - general + footpaths + drainage	Can't help thinking that the original developers made very poor roads. Council must make developer pay for good roads, footpaths and proper drainage.

149. Roads - general + Redgate Road	I lived in South Golden Beach 2003-2005 for eighteen months, the roads were then sub-standard , I have been back here nearly two years and would now describe the roads as pathetic , the on going filling of holes is a waste of rate payers money ,as soon as it rains the holes re-appear . The access footpath/bicycle track to the beach along Redgate Rd needs more constant attention for the safety of the multitude that use it.

155. South Golden Beach - cycleway	The maintenance / lawn crew assigned to North Byron has been doing a great job. More maintenance of the walking, bike track from South Golden Hall to New Brighton would be appreciated, don't let it fall into disrepair. Maintain what we have.			Comments noted.
156. Sport - Basketball	Hi, Firstly, part of River street was done around 4 years ago, I hope you do not plan to do it all. Also - The new sport field at ocean shores, Several people from the community asked to add a basketball court. There is no one full basketball court in Ocean-shores/New-Brighton/South-Golden-Beach/Brunswick heads. Kids have to travel all the way to Mullum or Byron Bay if they want to play basketball. It is a small investment and requires no maintenance. Lastly - I believe that instead of doing the small streets in South Golden Beach you can instead redo the big one in the neighbourhood: Royal Avenue, which is exactly in the same condition as the small ones, but have more traffic.			Comment noted. These works are not included within the decision of Council of how to spend these funds.
157. Sports	This should be above the already funds that our rates are used for.

Brainstormer feedback	Council Response
1. The river has eroded the bank and the road and roadside trees are about to fall into the river. This is a very popular swimming spot in summer, and it’s dangerous. Don't provide a typical 'council' solution and close the lane or dump rocks! Fill properly, smooth some nice sand from the river that is meters away and plant some grass on the edge, make room for a few cars to park as they will anyway.	These works are not included within the decision of Council of how to spend these funds.
2. Taps, seating and clean-up/ tidy-up entrances to the beach	These works are not included within the decision of Council of how to spend these funds.
3. How nice for residents of the shire and visitors alike to have nice entrances/ walkways to our stunning beaches!	These works are not included within the decision of Council of how to spend these funds.
4. Mow the edges of the roads, not just poison them	These works are not included within the decision of Council of how to spend these funds.
5. Shara Blvde and Billinudgel Rd look awful. The edges have been sprayed with poison and its all dead with tall weeds for a two-three meters from the edge of the road. Mow/ cut the grass, and selectively poison the weeds, not just spray poison continuously. It’s environmentally irresponsible.

1. Balemo Drive Cycleway	I served 8 years on Byron Council's Cycleways Committee to finally deliver a Cycle Plan for this Shire in 2008. Balemo Drive and Orana Rd were high priority in Ocean Shores to connect our kids to Schools and Parks, but this still has not happened. Please provide the cycleways you promised in 2008.	Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
2. Balemo Drive, footpath/cycle way	This is urgently needed to assist mothers pushing strollers. At present they walk in the road which is extremely dangerous. It would make riding to school safer and would connect to the bridge making access to Billinudgel either by foot or cycle.	Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
3. Clearing of the easements	The clearing and fencing of the south golden beach easements were scheduled for last year. They were postponed and there has been no update since. The are hazardous, overgrown and a fire risk.	These works are not included within the decision of Council of how to spend these funds.
4. Drainage and resurfacing of Gloria Street	In just as bad a shape as Peter, Helen and Robin Streets but still not considered in budget! Hasn't been resurfaced since first laid. Huge potholes with stagnant water for a week or two after rain as swales haven't been maintained in 16 years and some driveway cross overs don't have culverts.

Where option 2 is a decision of Council, further consultation will be undertaken with the detailed design and placement.
25. SGB Ratepayer	Every street in the quadrant of Helen, Royal, Gloria, and Pacific Esp. (Robin & Peter St) inclusive, need complete reconstruction and resurfacing. These streets are a disgrace and are totally unacceptable. some with potholes up to 300mm deep. We have no curb and guttering nor are there properly constructed footpaths, so you have parents with babies in strollers with no where to walk but the middle of the road, which in this day an age is not only unsafe but just plain ridiculous. This matter needs URGENT attention before someone is killed.	The road renewal projects will do this for the roads selected
26. SGB Skate park	SGB is lacking in recreational facilities for teenagers. A skate park with grass, seating area and jumps as opposed to a skate bowl on the road reserve adjacent to Helen St & Redgate rd would provide much needed infrastructure for our youth. The skate park could be located next to the proposed playground.	Comments noted.
27. the pocket road	Sections of the pocket road are terrible and needs to be resurfaced not just patched up.	Location not in the north of the Shire where the funds are proposed to be spent by Council.
28. Timber Walkway at Lookout	Construct a raised timber walkway for approximately 60 metres to go over the heavily rooted area. As many people use this path to get from the parking area to the trig station point, the raised roots have created a safety problem whereby people are prone to trip and injure themselves. Many older people have commented on the danger.	Forms part of option 2. Where option 2 is a decision of Council, further consultation will be undertaken with the community as to detailed design elements.
29. Tongarra Drive Resurface	Tongarra Drive needs to be resurfaced as the potholed street is a traffic hazard to all who use it. This street is used by locals and tourists to access the best lookout in this coastal region. The poor condition of the road gives a deplorable image of Byron Shire to visitors to the area.	After review of the submissions this project has not been proposed for funding in the report to Council on 9 June 2016
30. Traffic calming Orana bridge	The bend on Orana Road leading to the bridge over Marshalls Creek should have traffic calming devices. One on the west side near Wirree Dr the other on the east or New Brighton side. This bend is a notorious accident site and should be regarded as a "black spot".	Provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
31. Waterlily Community Playscape	Ocean Shores has never had a proper playground for our kids, and we need one desperately. A decent playground would cost $300,000. The recent one built in Knox Park Murwillumbah cost Tweed Council $410,000. We need proper facilities here please.	Comment noted, Included in option 1.

5.3.4 Submissions - qualitative community feedback

Submission feedback	Council Response
1. Thank you for the opportunity to contribute. It would be disappointing to see the funds go on roads. That kind of infrastructure is surely part of councils planned works (and if I may say, responsibility) anyway? Whilst on that topic, guard rails along the path through the green corridor at start of Shara Blvd would increase pedestrian safety. Also, along path b/w the top of Redgate Rd and the current soccer field. Feel very vulnerable to traffic along both of those walks. It would be heartening to see projects undertaken for our youth. The sport field is great. Perhaps a skate park could be added to that. Or near the shopping centre? Somewhere! Hope some playground equipment will be included at new sport field too!? If our youth are taken care of, our future is taken care of! Thanks again and good luck.	Decision of Council was to expend the funds on road renewal projects. Guardrail is a provision of new assets outside decision of Council for road renewal projects.
2. I am writing to express my desire to have the surface of Coomburra Cres, Ocean Shores, replaced. I saw the card from your office to ask us to get involved with your survey, but it was unclear how to add my interest when there was already a "pin" on Coomburra "Drive" (they incorrectly named it this instead of Cres). I think it important to also resurface Wahlooga Way, and possibly a short section of Yamble Drive (between Coomburra Cr and Wahlooga Way), so that residents have a smooth surface for this through-way to get to Orana Rd. This is the route that everyone must take in order to get out of our neighbourhood and out the Brunswick Valley Way. It would be rather pointless to beautifully replace Coomburra Cr and then leave Wahlooga Way littered with potholes. Also, as the curbs in Coomburra Cr are broken and generally in a very bad way, will these be replaced when the road is resurfaced?	Coomburra Cres recommended in report to Council other roads are not.
3. As part of this allocating of new available “Roadhouse” land sales funds (see attached a request for ideas from council), is it possible to have funding finally allocated to this safety work on Coolamon Scenic Drive. We have waited enough time since the recommendation was made by the traffic committee. Additional traffic has since been directed our way with new tourist signage. It would have been more sensible to do the line marking before the signposting was erected. Please advise what is to be done.	Location not in the north of the Shire where the funds are proposed to be spent by Council.
4. To whom it may concern, I would like to submit the following suggestion for the north Byron Shire infrastructure funding: Build a pipeline along the Brunswick rail corridor to take the treated effluent from West Byron STP and pump it into the Simpson Creek which feeds into the Brunswick River (the track could still be used if the rail line were to be reinstated in the future). This is of high priority due to the increased flows of treated effluent from the WBSTP not being matched by reuse, as was a condition of the EIS, and council's inability to deal with this since the upgrade.	Location not in the north of the Shire where the funds are proposed to be spent by Council.

Council response to South Golden Beach Progress Association:

Playground & Open Spaces

Option 2 provides for funds for a South Golden Beach Hall Playground. Where Council resolve this option, detailed consultation on design and position will be undertaken, leading to the option of planning for a future skate park within the adjacent road reserve.

Detailed constraints mapping of drainage and services is needed to inform design and costing of a skate park at this location that will inform funding to be sort. Establishing this as a project will need allocation via Councils budget process / contributions plan.

Roads

Beach Dr, Orana Rd and The Esplanade recommended in the report to Council, the other roads are not.

Response:

Response: Funding from the allocation of the former ‘Roundhouse’ sale has not been considered as a short listed project. The Brunswick Head River is a Crown managed waterway. The main arm of the Brunswick River was dredged in 2015. Council will consider the effect of sedimentation of the river when it completes the North Byron Flood Risk Management Plan; when completed and adopted, the plan may provide actions to be undertaken.
