2.       Transfer of Agenda Items

 

Are there any items, which the meeting believes, should be transferred from this agenda to the closed agenda or from the closed agenda to the open agenda, in accordance with the procedures allowed under Section 15 of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015?

 

No items were transferred.

 

 

3.       Communication from the Chairman

3.1      Gift for Presentation to Council

 

The Lord Mayor attended the Rotary Club of Hobart Charity Art Show Luncheon on Thursday 30 August 2018. He was presented with a certificate and bottle of GlenAyr Pinot Noir in appreciation of Council’s funding through the Community Small Grants Program.

 

 

 

4.       Notification of Council Workshops

In accordance with the requirements of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015, the General Manager reports that no Council workshops have been conducted since the last ordinary meeting of the Council.

 

 

5.       Public Question Time

 

5.1      Mr Ben Lohberger

 

Mr Lohberger put the following question and was provided with the corresponding response.

Question:

As part of its sponsorship arrangements with a number of different organisations, the HCC annually receives thousands of dollars worth of gifts in the form of free event tickets, season passes, and meal vouchers. Could the Council please consider donating all the excess gifts received through these sponsorships, to local charity organisations for use by their staff and their clients?

Response:

 

The Council supports organisations within the community through both the provision of sponsorships and grants.  Grants are provided through the City of Hobart Grants Program and this program sets out what is required to be provided by organisations in return for the City’s support. 

 

In relation to sponsorships, the City does not currently have a formal policy in relation to the City’s requirements for the provision of sponsorship, however this is a program of work planned to be undertaken.  Your question therefore raises an issue which ought to be considered in the development of such a document.

 

It should be noted that there are obviously situations where providing excess or unused tickets to third parties would not be appropriate and this would clearly need to be considered in the development of any such policy.

 

It is also worth pointing out that the City of Hobart is cognisant of ensuring access by the community to events and is already active in this space through the provision of community tickets to North Melbourne AFL games in Hobart.

 

 

6.       Petitions

 

No petitions were received.

 

 

7.       Consideration of Supplementary Items

Ref: Part 2, Regulation 8(6) of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015.

RECOMMENDATION

 

That the Council resolve to deal with any supplementary items not appearing on the agenda, as reported by the General Manager in accordance with the provisions of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015.

 

No supplementary items were received.

 

 

 

8.       Indications of Pecuniary and Conflicts of Interest

Ref: Part 2, Regulation 8(7) of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015.

 

Aldermen are requested to indicate where they may have any pecuniary or conflicts of interest in respect to any matter appearing on the agenda, or any supplementary item to the agenda, which the committee has resolved to deal with.

 

No interest was indicated.

9.       Council Acting as Planning Authority

 

In accordance with the provisions of Part 2 Regulation 25 of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015, the intention of the Council to act as a planning authority pursuant to the Land Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993 is to be noted.

 

In accordance with Regulation 25, the Council will act as a planning authority in respect to those matters appearing under this heading on the agenda, inclusive of any supplementary items.

 

The Council is reminded that in order to comply with Regulation 25(2), the General Manager is to ensure that the reasons for a decision by a Council or Council Committee acting as a planning authority are recorded in the minutes.
