but until we get feedback from the PA whether the

it's yeah until then, but you know it is unfortunate,
but you know it's move ahead and if clean cleaned
most of the oil out of the old tank that

Speaker 2 (01:41):

Andrews Manager for Infrastructure Operations, which is that position is
to lead our managed the functions of our Infrastructure and
Operations team and also to provide leadership and advice to
the General Manager. So it's a fairly significant position in
council and it'd be great to see a local put
(02:08):
the hand up for that position. That closes five pm Sunday,
the second of February. We've also got a Coordinator of
Projects and Infrastructure. As we know, we've got a lot
of projects happening at the moment around the West Coast
and andrews So, yes, we need someone to lead these projects.
And that's also closes five pm Sunday, the second of February.
(02:29):
And our final position, Andrew is a finance officer.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
I'll put my hand up for that.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
You'll put your hand up, all right? You reckon the
radio is better?
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Don't trust me with your money.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
To effectively and efficiently coordinate council's financial systems. Yeah, So
that one closes nine am Monday, the third of February.
So if people require any further information on any of
them positions, please go on the website UWW dot West
Coast dot TAZ, dot co dot au and find out
(03:04):
some more information or give counselor.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Ring and have a chat with them.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Yeah, I have a chat.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Yeah, Okay. Nature strips policy.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Yeah, so I guess we've we've received some, you know,
some feedback, plenty of feedback on the nature policy implementation
and which we appreciate, whether it's negative or positive.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
We've first got Shane who owns the nature strips.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
That the Council owns the nature strips. But you know,
we've we may made this policy to come in line
with all other councils around Australia. You know, some people
might say, well, well we're different, why do we have
to be the same. But it gives people the opportunity
if they want to use that nature strip for other things.
They can like parking vehicles on it, growing a garden
(03:51):
if they've got a small yard inside and you know
they've got a pet that digs up the garden all
the time, or the opportunity to use that. All they
need to do is talk to counsel and make sure
that whatever they're doing with the nature strip is you know,
it fits into it is it is it is. Yeah,
So we've got many residents have applied for the receiving
(04:16):
exemptions so that they can do that. The council still
looks after the nature strip, which is fine. We said
that right from the start if people can't can't maintain
their own nature strip, would certainly be open to look
at that, and which we've done. You know, we've got
a lot of age people in our community which we
don't expect them to be able to mow their nature strip.
(04:38):
So that was all they got to do is apply
and someone will come around, talk to council and they'll
put it in their normal mowing regime. You know, we've
had as you can see around the towns aren't in
real good nick at the moment with the long grass,
but we're working through that. And this time of the year,
every year we seem we get this issue the grass,
(04:58):
you know, with the hot weather and and the amount of
moisture in the air or rain, they grow pretty quick.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
So I know I've been here since the end of
November and I've probably had my little most six time.
You can see it grow overnight, you can. I can
understand the nature strip, yeah, you can.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
And I guess the other thing is, you know, we've
we had an incident a little while back now and
that's still playing on people's minds. And we've got to
be you know, we've workplace safe, put a few things
in place, and we've got to we're going to abide
by them rules and some of them, some of the
things that are in place at the moment, which we're
working through, don't allow us to most some of the
(05:38):
areas that need mowing at this stage and they need
we're snipping all other things. So we need to work
through that. Which we're doing. But you know, by the
end of hopefully by the end of summer, our our areas,
we'll be back to where we want to be, you know.
And I wasn't mentioned. We see this every.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Year, that's right, that's right, Yeah, shame, we're going to
take a break.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Can move back with you, I might okay, anyways that
(07:58):
when you me.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Yes, we're back with Shane Mayor on air. It's sixteen
away from nine. Shane just had a phone call from
a lady in Zen. Apparently there's a dead wallibe that's
been sitting there in front of the doctor's surgery for
a week.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Right, I mate, Well, I'll give the officer ring and
get them to get the staff to come around and
pick that up. So yeah, I guess it highlights.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
That I can imagine to be on the nose.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Hard reckon so mate. Yeah, but you know it's good
that that residence call called into the Mayor on air.
But on the other point, they can give the office
ring at anytime and we.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Can get it anytime. You're still sitting there in two days. Yeah, Hello,
I've got some problem. Yeah, that's right, Yeah, yeah, okay,
we're going to talk about some project updates.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Yeah, so this is I guess there's great news that
we're starting to look at our projects and start and
giving our community a little bit of update on on
where the prorat. So, the Queenstown Park redevelopment, so the
contractors are back on site as we can see over there, Andrew,
they're hard at it even though it's a bit of
drizzle around, which is good to see.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
That more visible.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Yeah. Yeah, so they're back after the Christmas break and
moving ahead with the work over there. And of course
the access to the public toilets is being maintained well
throughout the project, so.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
You can actually see what this will look like when
it's finished online.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Yeah she came, but yeah, when we were hoping to
have some some big plans up on the side of
the fence, but that's why it hasn't happened. But anyway,
if it's online, that's great. Told. Yeah. So the Queenstown
Scott and Squash Court roof that's been it's in the
preliminary stage, is now been replaced, so the contractors are
(09:51):
on site there and starting starting to do the preliminary
works around that area. So yeah, that'd be great to
see that replaced. We had a bit of a failure
there during the winter periods and it has caused a
bit of damage inside and we want to make sure
we get that done before we damage the main squash
court in there. And we've also got another project waiting
(10:13):
on the roof to be replaced there, the rock climbing
wall that was going up in that the old squash
courts in there, so we make sure that happens as
well as for the zoo gym, So the upgrade is
happening at the same time as the pool over there.
The change rooms are coming along nicely so they've just
been recently painted.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
So getting how's the pool going on?
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Yeah, so that the pipeworks completed over there, mate, and
the concrete will be laid in the next few weeks
and which will take time to cure and then before
any other works the final works in that area can
be completed. But yeah, so it's all on track, I believe.
And yeah, it's certainly going to be a place for
(10:57):
no Zoom residents or all the West Coast really to
enjoy once it's up and running.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Right space, we're looking at Straw now the project's happening there.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Yeah, Well, the Straw's going on. The gym down at
the Strawn's going well as well. So you know, the
same contractors are working on Zoo and Strawn, so they're
heading you know, heading along really well with that one,
and that's not far off completion as well.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
So you watch this space, I suppose you've got to
do in the summertime because in winter time it's very rarely.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Yeah, that's right, mate, And I guess then projects started
just at the back end of winter. So yeah, there
was a bit slow during the periods because of the
rainfall that we do get. But you know, in the
end we'll have a couple of nice, nice venues for
people to enjoy. Do you enjoy?
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Yeah, yeah, Okay. The annual Plan for the community input.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Yeah, so this, as we said in the past, Andrew,
this annual plan and budget guides counts with the work
that our community would like to see done. And you know,
we're always open for submissions and even if you miss
this year's plan, them submissions will stay there on the
list for a future and there may be some of
(12:14):
these things that our community want now that we can't
afford or we need to get funding for. That's why
they'll stay there so that when now funding does become available,
will we'll pull it out and the way we go
it sounds.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
Great, okay, the Health and Wellbeing strategy between thirty.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
Yeah, so this is our first health and wellbeing strategy
that we're putting together. So that's that will guide the
council team over the next five years and it's an
opportunity for us to plan a future our community can
work towards together. So it's not just for us, it's
got the whole community that we want to make sure that,
(12:54):
you know, we see that our health and wellbeing of
our community is most port for counsel.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
It's more of an aged community here.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
It is made it is and you know, and for
those youth in our community, we want to make sure
that they've also got a spaces available for them as
we see with the playgrounds of the being upgraded around
our community at the moment. That's all part of our
health and wellbeing strategies.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
So well, we spoke last week and the old school
just up the road here, Yes, what could that be
made into?
Speaker 1 (13:26):
Exactly right, And that's you know, we're working with homes
TAZ and also a private developer with regard to that space.
There's some very good ideas and that's why council undertook
to buy that back a few years ago now when
it was going out pretty pretty reasonably priced, so because
we could see that we need some area or some
(13:48):
other sport supported living for our age community. Those that
don't want to go into the ly wing, they're not
ready for that, but they want to be living on
their own listen.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
To vegim one bitter unit where they can do their
own thing. Someone comes in see how they are.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Exactly right mate, you know, and that's right close to
the hospital, so you know, if they want meals provided,
if they are getting if they're down on a certain
week that they want to the other hospital can provide
the meal. So you know, it is something which we've
certainly looked at and we've you know, we've got some
other people in our community that needs some assistance as
(14:23):
well with living facilities, so we can see that place
as being a multi use area, so that not just
for age, but for younger people there as well. So
and that's what that does. It assists with promoting you know,
those elderly people they see someone in there that they
can I guess mentor or and assists everyone. So it's
(14:46):
something which we've our age care strategy back when we've
done it a few years ago and now promoted all that.
And that's something which we see as well.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
I've noticed since I've been here, everybody sort of looks
after one another.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
They do, mate, Yes, and that's one thing, one good
thing about this community on here on the West Coast
that everyone looks after everyone else. You know. There's even
the tourists that come in. Yeah, the amount of tourists
that come and say, you know how friendly people are
that you can ask my question and there's no snobbing
away from that person. They'll they'll, you know, they'll lask,
(15:18):
or they'll explain where a certain thing is in the town.
If they don't know, they'll go and grab someone else
and just and just start talking again. So it's great,
you know, it's great.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Yeah, So when's this strategy to finish the years?
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Okay, so we need feedback prior to five pm Monday
to twenty fourth of February, and then we'll start putting
that together.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
So yes, that sounds good.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Yeah, No, it does sound good.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Anything else showing that we need to know about.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
No, I don't think they made I just I guess. Yeah.
For those that in our community, do you want to
head down the straw for the Mountain Lisle Strong Picnic
on Sunday, that'd be great. We'll be down there. The
Lions Club will be there cooking their burgers and sausages.
So and we'll be announcing the West Coast Spirit Awards
at that's right at one o'clock at one o'clock at
(16:03):
the picnic. So well, we'll be presenting the awards anyway.
So no, it's great and it's a good opportunity for
the locals to get down there and participate in the
games and enjoy the hopefully sunshine.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
I think Susan, who works here at your other harsh
she said, you're going to be there early, aren't you.
I thought, I do not want to do an eggin
spoon race or a sack race. Yeah, well yeah, yeah,
well sometimes I do have three leaks. Anyway, Shane, thank

(12:14):
these things that our community want now that we can't
afford or we need to get funding for. That's why
they'll stay there so that when now funding does become available,
will we'll pull it out and the way we go
it sounds.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
Great, okay, the Health and Wellbeing strategy between thirty.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
Yeah, so this is our first health and wellbeing strategy
that we're putting together. So that's that will guide the
council team over the next five years and it's an
opportunity for us to plan a future our community can
work towards together. So it's not just for us, it's
got the whole community that we want to make sure that,
(12:54):
you know, we see that our health and wellbeing of
our community is most port for counsel.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
It's more of an aged community here.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
It is made it is and you know, and for
those youth in our community, we want to make sure
that they've also got a spaces available for them as
we see with the playgrounds of the being upgraded around
our community at the moment. That's all part of our
health and wellbeing strategies.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
So well, we spoke last week and the old school
just up the road here, Yes, what could that be
made into?
Speaker 1 (13:26):
Exactly right, And that's you know, we're working with homes
TAZ and also a private developer with regard to that space.
There's some very good ideas and that's why council undertook
to buy that back a few years ago now when
it was going out pretty pretty reasonably priced, so because
we could see that we need some area or some
(13:48):
other sport supported living for our age community. Those that
don't want to go into the ly wing, they're not
ready for that, but they want to be living on
their own listen.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
To vegim one bitter unit where they can do their
own thing. Someone comes in see how they are.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Exactly right mate, you know, and that's right close to
the hospital, so you know, if they want meals provided,
if they are getting if they're down on a certain
week that they want to the other hospital can provide
the meal. So you know, it is something which we've
certainly looked at and we've you know, we've got some
other people in our community that needs some assistance as
(14:23):
well with living facilities, so we can see that place
as being a multi use area, so that not just
for age, but for younger people there as well. So
and that's what that does. It assists with promoting you know,
those elderly people they see someone in there that they
can I guess mentor or and assists everyone. So it's
(14:46):
something which we've our age care strategy back when we've
done it a few years ago and now promoted all that.
And that's something which we see as well.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
I've noticed since I've been here, everybody sort of looks
after one another.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
They do, mate, Yes, and that's one thing, one good
thing about this community on here on the West Coast
that everyone looks after everyone else. You know. There's even
the tourists that come in. Yeah, the amount of tourists
that come and say, you know how friendly people are
that you can ask my question and there's no snobbing
away from that person. They'll they'll, you know, they'll lask,
(15:18):
or they'll explain where a certain thing is in the town.
If they don't know, they'll go and grab someone else
and just and just start talking again. So it's great,
you know, it's great.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Yeah, So when's this strategy to finish the years?
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Okay, so we need feedback prior to five pm Monday
to twenty fourth of February, and then we'll start putting
that together.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
So yes, that sounds good.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Yeah, No, it does sound good.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Anything else showing that we need to know about.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
No, I don't think they made I just I guess. Yeah.
For those that in our community, do you want to
head down the straw for the Mountain Lisle Strong Picnic
on Sunday, that'd be great. We'll be down there. The
Lions Club will be there cooking their burgers and sausages.
So and we'll be announcing the West Coast Spirit Awards
at that's right at one o'clock at one o'clock at
(16:03):
the picnic. So well, we'll be presenting the awards anyway.
So no, it's great and it's a good opportunity for
the locals to get down there and participate in the
games and enjoy the hopefully sunshine.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
I think Susan, who works here at your other harsh
she said, you're going to be there early, aren't you.
I thought, I do not want to do an eggin
spoon race or a sack race. Yeah, well yeah, yeah,
well sometimes I do have three leaks. Anyway, Shane, thank
you for today. We'll talk again next Friday just after
eight thirty.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Ok, thanks Andrew.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
