N/A

Ravensthorpe has provisions in their Scheme that could be useful to allow us to deal with unkempt land more effectively.

 

Uphold

Amend the Scheme by inserting into Schedule 1:

 

“30.   Unkempt Land

 

(a)     On any land within the Scheme area, any undergrowth, refuse, rubbish or disused material which in the opinion of the local government is likely to adversely affect the health, comfort or convenience of the inhabitants thereof, the local government may cause a notice to be served on the owner or occupier of such land requiring that the land is cleared of  trees, scrub, undergrowth, refuse or rubbish, or such refuse, rubbish or disused material is removed from such land within a specified period.

 

(b)     Where the owner or occupier does not clear the land or remove the refuse, rubbish or disused material as required by the notice, the local government may without payment or any compensation in respect thereof, clear or remove it and dispose of it at the expense of the owner or occupier to whom notice is given.

 

(c)     A person to whom a notice under this clause is given may apply for a review of the requirement to the State Administrative Tribunal in accordance with the Planning and Development Act 2005 Part 14. Where such an appeal is lodged, the effect of the notice and subsequent actions under subclause (b) shall be suspended until a decision of the State Administrative Tribunal has been handed down.

 

(d)     Failure to comply with a notice under this clause shall be a breach of the provisions of this Scheme.”

Lot 307 Norseman Road, Chadwick

(i)      Lot 307 Norseman Road is currently zoned ‘Parks, Recreation and Conservation – Local’ under Local Planning Scheme No. 23. This area is of meaningful cultural significance to the Esperance Nyungar people. The water hole at this site was regularly used as a campground for Esperance Nyungar people, especially during the early days of Esperance’s development, when Aboriginal people were not allowed in the town site after dark.

 

Because of this cultural significance Lot 307 Norseman Road has been identified as a parcel of land to be transitioned to the Esperance Tjaltjraak Native Title Aboriginal Corporation as a 10 year lease.

Recommends the Shire begins planning to create a heritage list which meet these requirements as part of its review of its planning framework.

ESPERANCE  WA  6450

Lots 652 and 622 Sims Street, Chadwick,

Lot 303 Iona Street, Nulsen

(i)      Lots 652 and 622 Sims Street have been offered to Esperance Tjaltjraak Services (ETS) as vested reserves for the purposes of Commercial, Residential, Cultural and Community Purposes. Road access to lots 622 and 652 is unlikely to occur in the foreseeable future, the use of these lots as part of contiguous industrial activity with properties located to the North, East or North West would appear to be the most appropriate outcome. The Department of Lands, as the owner of the two lots has no objection to their use for industrial purposes, and has also offered ETS power to lease upon these lots to facilitate their use for this purpose.

 

(ii)      Lot 303 Iona Street has been offered to ETS in accordance with the Indigenous Land Use Agreement as a freehold property, free of encumbrances. It is recognised that the current cadastre of Lot 303 (and Lot 304) Iona Street was clearly influenced by the Shire of Esperance’s desire to excise portion of the previous single lot (now comprising Lots 303 and 304 Iona Street) for the purposes of a proposed new road reserve. It would therefore be appreciated if the matter concerning the proposed road reserve was clarified, and if as a result, portion of the previously proposed road reserve is no longer required from Lot 303, that the zoning for the whole of lot 303 is updated to Rural Residential.

 

(i)      Uphold

N/A

The proposed changes appear to be largely of an administrative nature to comply with the model scheme text and do not appear to affect Water Corporation assets. If our assets are affected, the principle followed by the Water Corporation for the funding of subdivision or development is one of user pays. For any type of development the developer is expected to provide all water and sewerage reticulation that may be required. Incremental up-coding and density increases may require the developer to fund new works or the upgrading of existing works as development proceeds. In addition, the developer is responsible for the protection of all works.

CASTLETOWN  WA  6450

Lot 52 Kiwi Close and Lot 59 Goldfields Road, Castletown

Request that consideration be given to changing the zoning of Lot 52 Kiwi Close and Lot 59 Goldfields Road, Castletown to Residential R20 in line with the residential lots to the south west along Goldfields Road.

 

No current intentions to subdivide but it presents an opportunity to use the large frontages to Goldfields Road to encourage denser growth and flexibly in the future,

Dismiss

 

Lot 52 Kiwi Close and Lot 59 Goldfields Road, Castletown are proposed to be zoned ‘Rural Residential’ under the Scheme. The residential zoning that the current site entertains under Local Planning Scheme No. 23 was a result of the abolition of the Special Residential zone that was applied under former Town Planning Scheme No. 22.

 

If the proposal was supported a density bonus due to the lots size of R30 is applicable which would be incompatible with the surrounding development.

N/A

(i)      If there is any agricultural land of local, regional or state significance in the shire, this land should be identified and zoned as Priority Agriculture. A review of the Local Planning Strategy may also assist in identifying specific areas suitable for intensive agriculture.

 

 

(ii)      In reference to a comment on page 35 (Schedule A), it should be noted that DAFWA's Stocking Rate Guidelines only apply to small rural holdings.

 

 

(iii)     DAFWA supports the receipt of relevant Planning Applications where proposed development may impact rural land.

 

(iv)    Any new mining development (e.g. extraction of basic raw materials) should be implemented with as little as possible disruption to Agriculture and in cooperation with all affected land holders.

 

(i)      Noted

 

Priority Agriculture areas have not been identified within the local planning strategy at this stage but can be incorporated by Scheme Amendment once determined. It should also be noted that the ‘Priority Agriculture’ zone is not currently identified in Schedule 1 of the Planning and Development (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015.

 

(ii)      Noted

 

This has no impact on the operation of the Scheme as stocking rates do not apply to large rural holdings and they are also exempted by Clause 1(a)(i) of Schedule A.

Lot 11 Coolgardie – Esperance Highway, Myrup

(i)      Over recent years we have had enquiries over lot 11 as it is currently 80Ha, with a market value of approx. $500,000.00.

(ii)      Most enquiries have wanted the location in smaller lots, to operate Home & business combined.

(iii)     As a whole lot with home & shed costs it becomes an expensive option for small business.

(iv)    We believe as 4 smaller lots we could then offer to the market an affordable option. Similar to what is zoned along old shark Lake Road. RS2 SCA 3B.

Lot 422 Pink Lake Road, Nulsen

Would like to apply for rezoning of Lot 422 Pink Lake Road from Commercial to Residential. I believe the change of zoning will make it easier to sell or redevelop the Block. I purchased the land in the early 90’s to accommodate my Business which was Pink Lake Butchers. I mainly used the Block for extra parking for Staff vehicles and loading refrigerated trucks. After 21 years I sold the Business in 2010 and have no longer use for a Commercial Block as there are a few commercial properties for Sale or Rent in the immediate area. I am sure I stand a better chance of selling it as a residential site

ALBANY  WA  6330

N/A

(i)      SCA 4 – Shire is commended on provisions that will allow compliance with the Department of Water’s Water Quality Protection Note (WQPN) No. 25- Land use compatibility tables for public drinking water source areas (PDWSAs) (LUCT) (April 2016).

(ii)      Recreation on land in a Public Drinking Water Source Area – Skroyls Park is located within the Priority 2 area. While the DoW's policy recognises existing facilities as well as maintenance and improvements to these (within current capacity), the policy recommends that new facilities are located outside PDWSAs. DoW notes the absence of a proposed scheme provision and questions the Shire's reasons for not including it within Draft LPS No.24 in SCA 4.

(iii)     Condingup Water Reserve - The draft Condingup Water Reserve drinking water source protection review is being finalised. The boundary for the PDWSA in draft LPS No.24 should reflect current Drinking Water Source Protection report until an amended boundary is approved. Shape files for the proposed boundary of the Condingup Water Reserve will be made available to the Shire once the report is approved. The DoW will advise the Shire when this occurs.

(iv)    Zoning table-  The draft LPS No.24 zoning table should be consistent with the DoW's WQPN No.25 LUCT to ensure decision making for land use and development within SCA 4- PDWSA is consistent with the guideline.

(v)     Better urban water management - The DoW recommends the integration of the Better Urban Water Management framework into the Shire's planning process. The following paragraph should be included in Part 4- General development requirements of the scheme text. "Management of stormwater on all developments should be in accordance with current best practice as per the Stormwater Management Manual for Western Australia (DoW, 2007). The Local Government may require the preparation of water management plans as a condition of development approval as per the Better Urban Water Management framework".

(vi)    Supports exemption of minor buildings from requiring planning approval in SCA 4.

(vii)    A7 – various lots Condingup - These lots are located within the P3 area of the Condingup Water reserve. The proposed additional uses are all acceptable in a P3 area, however the DoW requests that when these planning proposals are received, they are referred to DoW for advice.

(viii)   A8 – Lot 5 Downes Street, Pink Lake - This site is located in a P2 area of the Esperance Water Reserve and within a wellhead protection zone. Reception centres are incompatible in P2 areas. If this is an existing facility, the DoW would welcome the opportunity to understand what facilities are located on the site, and whether there are opportunities to reduce risk to the water resource.

(ix)    New Lot sizes for rural townsite zone – DoW supports as it is consistent with SCA 4.

(x)     RR2 - The DoW queries whether it is possible to modify the provisions relating to the keeping of horses to include other stock? The DoW has previously raised this issue with the Shire as all stock create a risk to the water resource, not just horses.

Suggested wording;

3. The keeping of stock on lots less than 4 ha in area is prohibited.

4. The number of stock permitted on lots of 4 ha must be in accordance with DAFWA stocking guidelines. The local government will only grant approval to the keeping of stock subject to submission of an application for planning approval that includes proposed measures to manage the land.

(xi)    RR6 – Condingup- Request the inclusion of additional provisions to

acknowledge the location of this RR area within the Condingup Water Reserve e.g.

1. All development shall be consistent with the provisions of SCA 4.

2. Rural pursuits that have the potential to pollute the Condingup Water Reserve Public Drinking Water Source Area are to be refused or referred to the Water Corporation and the Department of Water for comment  and the local government is to be due regard to advice received from those agencies when determining applications.

3. Fertilisers, herbicides and insecticides should be applied sparingly to prevent excess chemicals or nutrients leaching into the groundwater with particular reference to protecting the Condingup Water Reserve.

(xii)    Lots 44-48 Connolly Street & Lots 49, 54 & 55 Thompson St West Beach - These lots are located within a P2 area of the Esperance Water Reserve where the minimum lot size supported by the DoW is 2ha. The proposed density of R2 will be an improvement from the current R5, however the DoW will not support any subdivision of these lots without connection to sewer, particularly as they are located within wellhead protection zones for multiple production bores. Both the current and proposed zoning is inconsistent with the SCA 4 provisions.

(xiii)   Lot 70 Stewart Street & Lot 76, 77, 79, 81 and 82 Twilight Beach Road, West Beach – These lots are located in a P3 area of the Esperance Water Reserve where the minimum lot size supported by the DoW is 1 ha, unless the site is connected to sewer. All future development for these lots should be consistent with the SCA 4 provisions.

(xiv)  R14348 Gibson - change from agriculture to public purpose - This site is located in a P2 area of the Gibson Water Reserve. It appears that the change in zoning is to support the development of a gravel pit? When the development proposal is received, it should be forwarded to the DoW for advice to minimise the risk to the groundwater source.

 

(i)      Noted

 

 

 

(ii)      Noted

 

Provisions dealing specifically with Skroyls Park are located within the Local Planning Strategy and not the Scheme.

N/A

(i)      Advised that State Planning Policy 2.5 Rural Planning has been recently released and that Department of Mines and Petroleum had input in regard to mining in Western Australia.

(ii)      Concerned over the change of the large areas of unallocated crown land from ‘Rural Unsettled’ under LPS 23 to ‘Environmental Conservation’ under LPS 24. The proposed change to a reserve classification of ‘Environmental Conservation’ gives the impression that mining activities are not supported for these areas. Excluding those areas that are already designated as State conservation reserves (under the Land Administration Act 1997), DMP requests that no reservation is applied to the balance of the ‘unsettled’ rangelands. DMP suggests that these areas could continue to be zoned ‘Rural’, thereby facilitating a wide variety of purposes, including environmental assets as set out in SPP 2.5. If the designation of ‘Rural’ is not deemed acceptable, then DMP requests that in the first instance these areas have no category (zone or reserve) if indeed no suitable alternative is currently available.

(iii)     A map has been provided showing the location of five proposed Significant Geological Supplies (SGS) areas under State Planning Policy 2.5. These areas have basic raw materials that are of State significance due to the size of the resource, relative scarcity, demand and /or location near growth or demand areas. Notably, these areas have long-term strategic resources important to the development of the Shire, such as the limesand for agricultural purposes. It is recommended that the Shire considers applying Special Control areas around any of these areas if they are potentially threatened by conflicting land uses

(i)      Noted

 

 

 

 

(ii)      Noted

 

Whilst the concerns raised are noted it should be noted that the ‘Environmental Conservation’ reserve was applied as the previous ‘Rural Unsettled’ zone was not available under the Planning and Development (Local Planning Scheme) Regulations 2015. It should also be noted that this is only a Scheme Reserve and does not prevent activities that can occur under the Mining Act 1978.

 

 

 

 

 

 

(iii)     Noted

 

The areas identified are proposed to be shown on the Local Planning Strategy maps which will provide suitable guidance in relation to any intensification of use through either subdivision or Scheme Amendment.

N/A

(i)      Although the proposed Scheme encourages 'positive' outcomes for the Shire, it does not address potential negative issues in relation to such outcomes/developments. The Shire of Esperance could consider a provision within the scheme to require a 'health risk assessment' for a proposal. The 'health risk assessment' should include the benefits and negatives of the proposal and include public health, social and environmental impacts.

(ii)      Schedule 1 Item 2 - Minimum lot size in residential zones

Should specify in (a) -'where sewer connection is available....'

• For non-sewered lots - a different minimum lot size 'consistent with on-site effluent disposal requirements' is more appropriate.

 

 

 

 

 

(iii)     The Scheme should require that any proposed developments are required to connect to scheme water and reticulated sewerage in accordance with the draft Country Sewerage Policy (as appropriate).Any water management plan including the utilisation of recreational water and any waste water recycling is to comply with DOH guidelines and requirements.

(iv)    The Scheme should also advise that approval is required for any on-site waste water treatment process.

 

(v)     The Scheme should require that a sufficient supply of potable water is of the quality specified under the Australian Drinking Water Quality Guidelines 2004.

 

(vi)    DOH has a document on 'Evidence supporting the creation of environments that encourage healthy active living' which may assist you with planning elements related to this Scheme.

(vii)    The proposed Scheme is to acknowledge and incorporate appropriate separation distances in accordance with the EPA Environmental Assessment Guideline (EAG) 3 'Guidance for the Assessment of Environmental Factors No. 3 -Separation Distances between Industrial and Sensitive Land Uses'.

(viii)   The Scheme should also acknowledge the DOH's Guidelines for the Separation of Agricultural and Residential Land Use as a means to help avoid conflict and potential adverse health effects and nuisance impacts from chemical use, dust and other rural pursuits.

(ix)    Another document 'Land Use Planning for Natural Hazards can also guide the use of land to effectively reduce risk and enhance sustainability for areas prone to hazards such as flooding (including storm surge), fire, landslide, earthquake, strong wind and coastal erosion.

 

(i)      Noted

 

The Scheme, through the Clause 67 of the Planning and Development (Local Planning Schemes) Regulations 2015, requires due regard to be given to the listed matters, to the extent that is required in the opinion of the local government. The proposed modification is not supported

 

 

(ii)      Uphold

 

Amend Schedule 1 Clause 2.(a) by adding ‘ where a sewerage connection is available’ after Detailed Area Plan.

 

Amend Schedule 1 Clause 2.(b) by renumbering it to Schedule 1 Clause 2.(c).

 

Amend Schedule 1 Clause 2 by inserting a new clause 2.(b) stating ‘For non-sewered lots a minimum lot size not greater that outlined in subclause (a) is to be consistent with on-site effluent disposal requirement.’

 

(iii)     Noted

 

The Draft Government Sewerage Policy will apply without being incorporated into the Scheme. The Scheme also already contains provision in relation to the on-site collection of potable water.

 

 

 

(iv)    Noted

 

Waste water treatment is not dealt with under the regulatory framework of the Scheme

(v)     Uphold

 

Amend Schedule 1 Clause 17 by inserting as separate sentence at the end of the clause “Potable water is of the quality specified under the Australian Drinking Water Quality Guidelines 2004 (as amended).”

PLAN SUMMARY: Plant & Vehicles

The Shire owns and operates a fleet of plant and equipment that enables it to provide services required by the community.  Organisational mobility is essential for moving people, materials and tools to works sites.  This mobility enables a range of community services and is essential to productivity and achieving the desired levels of service.

Effective Fleet management includes programs to preserve the value of equipment, measuring and minimising un-scheduled servicing, collecting, analysing and reporting data that enables informed asset management decision to be made.  The projected cost to provide the services covered by this Asset Management Plan includes operations, maintenance, renewal and upgrade of existing assets over the 10 year planning period. 

What we have and what’s it worth

                             

 What it costs                        

Based on Council’s adoption of the 10 Year Plant Replacement Program there is no funding gap in this AMP. 

Purpose

As identified in the IPWEA Plant & Vehicle Management Manual 3rd Edition, the lifecycle plan for fleet assets is about:

·    Purchasing assets subject to a business case using whole-of-life costs and utilisation rates.

·    Operating assets in a manner they were designed for.

·    Maintaining assets in line with manufacturer’s requirements.

·    Replacing assets in accordance with optimum replacement principles.

·    Disposing of assets in accordance with utilisation and other benchmarks.

·    Funding the 10 year replacement program using a reserve.

 

What can we do

Provide Fleet infrastructure by:

·    Reviewing annual budget allocations to reflect the projected renewal expenditure.

·    Minimising the impact of peak renewal expenditure through the use of reserve funds and/or renewal plan management.

·    Determining agreed service levels and funding strategies over the 10 year planning period.

·    Meeting agreed funding levels for operation, maintenance, renewal and upgrade.

·    Managing Fleet assets using best practice utilisation and optimisation strategies.

·    Undertaking regular reviews of asset values, residuals and renewal projections.

 

The Next Steps

Actions resulting from this AMP include:

·    Maintain and improve data maintenance and systems

·    Monitor workshop operations and resources

·    Document operation and maintenance guidelines

·    Further develop financial tracking & reporting

·    Review risk register and treatment plans

·    Further develop or review Levels of Service

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1.1     Key Assumptions

Key assumptions have been used in the preparation of this AMP, these are presented to enable readers to gain an understanding of the levels of confidence in data used for financial forecasts.

·    To ensure a uniform view of Plant and Vehicle asset renewal requirements, this AMP includes assets from all Shire funded departments and business units including Homecare, Airport and Wylie Bay Landfill.  Future AMP’s developed for individual business units may identify these assets and their values but not the financial impacts.

·    Values and projections are Net only.  Reference should be made to the summary valuation table for budgeted expenditure and income estimates.  This summary will be used by finance for inclusion in the Long Term Financial Plan.

·    This AMP has been prepared based on a summary of projected asset Renewals, Upgrades and New assets developed in the 10 Year Plant and Vehicle Replacement Plans. 

·    Sundry Plant has not been included as values are below the $5,000 threshold and therefore not capitalised. 

·    Projected expenditure and residual values are based on current market values indexed at 3% annually.

·    Operations and maintenance expenditure is as reported through BIS.

·    General methodology is based on the “IPWEA Plant & Vehicle Management Manual” and incorporates optimisation and utilisation processes.

·    Plant - generally includes Graders, Loaders, Trucks, Rollers etc

·    Vehicles - generally includes staff and light operational vehicles.

·    Sundry plant - generally includes mowers, light trailers, and minor plant valued less than $5,000.

·    Annual depreciation is based on current replacement cost - residual / useful life


 

2.     INTRODUCTION

2.2     Goals and Objectives of Asset Management

The Council exists to provide services to its community.  Council’s goal in managing infrastructure assets is to meet the required level of service in the most cost effective manner for present and future consumers. 

The Shire of Esperance owns and operates a fleet of plant and equipment to assist in providing these services.  Management of the fleet is therefore critical in ensuring community, strategic and operational service levels are achieved now and in the future.

 

 

2.3     Plan Framework

The key elements of Fleet asset management are:

·    Taking a life cycle approach,

·    Developing cost-effective management strategies for the long term

·    Providing a defined level of service and monitoring performance

·    Understanding and meeting the demands of growth

·    Managing risks

·    Continuous improvement in asset management practices.

 

2.4     Core and Advanced Asset Management

This asset management plan supersedes 2014 Fleet AMP and is intended to meet minimum legislative and organisational requirements for sustainable service delivery and long term financial planning and reporting.

2.5     Community Consultation

Community consultation is used to assist Council and the community in matching the level of service needed by the community, service risks and consequences with the community’s ability to pay for the service. 


 

3.     LEVELS OF SERVICE

3.1     Customer Research and Expectations

Council has not carried out any research on customer expectations.  The Plant and Vehicle AMP is prepared based on the Shire’s current operational and service delivery requirements. 

3.2     Legislative Requirements

Legislative requirements relating to Plant and Vehicle assets include:

·    Local Government Act

·    Environmental Protection Act

·    Road Traffic Act

·    Motor Vehicle Standards Act

·    OSH Act

·    OSH Regulations

 

3.3     Current Levels of Service

Service levels are defined using Community and Technical measures but have not been identified in this plan.

3.4     Desired Levels of Service

Desired service level measures and targets will be addressed in future reviews of this plan.


 

4.       FUTURE DEMAND

4.1     Demand Forecast

Factors affecting demand may include changes in technology, population, demographics, seasonal factors, consumer preferences, expectations, economic and environmental factors.  Demand may also be affected by seasonal use of the Shire’s road network and by factors including availability of resources such as gravel.  This in turn may affect haul distances, types of plant required, plant renewal frequency and budgets.   The Shires ability to meet any future desired level of service from Fleet infrastructure will be managed through successive reviews of the asset management plan.

Demand factor trends and impacts on service delivery are summarised in Table 4.1.

Table 4.1:  Demand Factors, Projections and Impact on Services

Demand factor

Present position

Projection

Technology

Safety and productivity improvements are incorporated where possible in purchasing decisions.

Technical advances in safety, productivity and cost effectiveness will be monitored and incorporated where appropriate.  GPS Fleet Tracking will be implemented in 2017 as per Policy “Ass 024”.

Capacity

The current 10 Year Plant and Vehicle renewal plans incorporate foreseeable changes in demand.

Future changes in demand may be identified from changes in road conditions, levels of service, material availability, climate or other factors.  The capacity of the existing and proposed fleet to meet the desired levels of service will be monitored and any impacts will be reflected in annual reviews of this plan.

 

5.     LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT PLAN

The lifecycle management plan details how Council plans to meet existing levels of service while optimising life cycle costs.

5.1     Background Data

5.1.1  Physical parameters

The assets covered by this asset management plan are shown in Table 2.1.

Plant and Vehicle assets replacements are optimised based on a combination values including residual value, age, performance, condition, servicing and maintenance costs. 

5.1.2  Asset capacity and performance

Council’s services are generally provided to meet design standards where these are available.  Known service performance deficiencies are detailed in Table 5.1.2.

Table 5.1.2: Known Service Performance Deficiencies

Area

Service Deficiency

Fleet management system

Review current systems to ensure adequate integrated planning and reporting capabilities

Vehicles

Further standardisation of vehicle classes to be addressed.

 

Plant

Further address efficiency opportunities eg. Side tipping trailers

On-going review of asset utilisation

Workshop

On-going review of workshop facilities to meet safety and servicing requirements of current fleet.

5.1.3  Asset condition

Plant and Vehicle condition is monitored continually by operators and maintenance and servicing staff.  It is assumed that all maintenance and repairs are conducted as required without the need for asset condition monitoring.

5.1.4  Asset valuations

Assets values are shown below. 

Current Replacement Cost (CRC)                            $16,395,376               (Current replacement cost of assets)

Depreciable Amount                                       $12,426,251               (Current replacement cost – Residual)

Depreciated Replacement Cost (DRC)                   $10,916,962               (CRC – accumulated depreciation)

Annual Depreciation Expense (ADC)                      $1,970,213                 (CRC – Residual / Useful Life)

95 – 105%

Interpretation

Indicates the aged condition of assets, a ratio of less than 50% may indicate rapid deterioration, 60% indicates an adequate usable level of service, greater than 75% may indicate over investment

A Ratio below 90% would normally indicate under investment in renewal.  This figure indicates an adequate level of renewal is provided

This ratio would normally indicate adequate provision for renewal in the LTFP, the ratio in this case is based on the assumption that all expenditure is funded

 

By fully funding projected renewals, Council is ensuring assets are renewed at the rate they are being consumed over the medium-long term and funding the life cycle costs for all new assets and services in its long term financial plan.

5.1.5  Asset hierarchy

Service Hierarchy

Service Level Objective

 

Plant

Provide and maintain fleet assets which enable major operational and construction tasks to be completed.  Assets comply with all relevant standards and specifications.

 

Vehicles

Provide and maintain passenger and light operational vehicles to manufacturer’s specifications so as to ensure the safety of staff and public.  Ensure the maximum utilisation and lowest whole of life costs while minimising environmental impacts.  Assets comply with all relevant standards and specifications.

 

Sundry

Provide and maintain minor fleet assets to enable operational tasks to be completed in a safe manner.  Assets comply with all relevant standards and specifications.

 

 

5.2     Risk Management Plan

No critical risks, being those assessed as ‘Very High’ - requiring immediate corrective action and ‘High’ – requiring prioritised corrective action have been identified in the Infrastructure Risk Management Plan.

 

5.3     Routine Operations and Maintenance Plan

Operations include regular activities to provide services relating to health, safety and amenity.

Routine maintenance is the regular on-going work that is necessary to keep assets operating, including instances where portions of the asset fail and need immediate repair to make the asset operational again.

5.3.1  Operations and Maintenance plan

Operations activities affect service level including quality and function and include purchase of fuel and GPS vehicle tracking.

Maintenance includes scheduled and un-scheduled work activities.

Scheduled maintenance is regular servicing and repair work that is managed through the Fleet Management System. 

Un-scheduled maintenance is repair work carried out in response to service requests and management/supervisory directions. 

Maintenance activities include inspection, assessing the condition and failures/breakdowns, prioritising, scheduling, actioning the work and reporting what was done to develop a maintenance history and improve maintenance and service delivery performance. 

5.3.2  Standards and specifications

Maintenance work is carried out in accordance with Standards and Specifications and utilise scheduled maintenance plans and checklists.

·    Motor Vehicles Standards Act

5.3.3  Summary of future operations and maintenance expenditures

Future operations and maintenance expenditure is forecast to trend in line with the value of the asset stock as shown in

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Figure 4:  Projected Operations and Maintenance Expenditure

5.4     Renewal/Replacement Plan

Plant and Vehicle renewal expenditure may include the major refurbishment or the complete replacement of an existing asset in any category.  Purchase or provision of fleet assets other than existing is considered new expenditure.

5.4.1  Renewal plan

Assets requiring renewal have been identified in the 10 Year Renewal Plans and incorporated in the NAMS.Plus3 Asset Data Management expenditure templates using Method 2 below.

·    Method 1 uses Asset Register data to project the renewal costs for renewal years using acquisition year and useful life

·    Method 2 uses capital renewal expenditure projections from external condition modelling systems (such as Pavement Management Systems)

·    Method 3 uses a combination of average network renewals plus defect repairs in the Renewal Plan and Defect Repair Plan worksheets on the ‘Expenditure template’. 

5.4.2  Renewal standards

Renewal work is carried out as per 5.3.2 Standards and Specifications.

5.4.3  Summary of projected renewal expenditure

Projected future renewal expenditures are forecast to increase over time as the asset stock ages.  The costs are summarised in Figure 5.

The projected capital renewal program is shown in Appendix A.

Figure 5:  Projected Capital Renewal Expenditure

5.5     Creation/Acquisition/Upgrade Plan

Refer to the Shire’s “10 Year Plant and Vehicle Renewal Plans”. 

5.5.1  Selection criteria

The priority for all proposals is based on the desired service delivery, operational requirements and approved budget. 

5.5.2  Standards and specifications

Standards and specifications for new assets and for upgrade/expansion of existing assets are the same as those for renewal shown in Section 5.4.2.

5.5.3  Summary of projected upgrade/new assets expenditure

Projected upgrades or new assets are detailed in the 10 year Plant & Vehicle Replacement plans.

Figure 6:  Projected Capital Upgrade / New Asset Expenditure

5.6     Disposal Plan

Disposals are detailed in the 10 year Plant & Vehicle Replacement plans.

6.     FINANCIAL SUMMARY

This section contains the financial requirements resulting from all the information presented in the previous sections of this asset management plan.  The financial projections will be improved as further information becomes available on desired levels of service and current and projected future asset performance.

6.1     Financial Statements and Projections

The financial projections are shown in Figure 7 for projected operating (operations and maintenance) and capital expenditure (renewal and upgrade/expansion/new assets), net disposal expenditure and estimated budget funding. 

Figure 7:  Projected Operating and Capital Expenditure and Budget

6.1.1  Financial sustainability in service delivery

The key indicator for financial sustainability considered in the analysis of the services provided by this asset category is the projected/budgeted expenditure over a 10 year planning period.

Medium term – 10 year financial planning period

Lifecycle costs                        $4,198,465 / yr           (over the 10 year planning period)

Lifecycle expenditure            $4,198,465 / yr           (over the 10 year planning period)

Funding shortfall                    $0 / yr  (difference between costs and expenditure)

Indicates that Council has 100% of the projected expenditure required to provide the documented services

Financial Sustainability Indicators

Providing services from infrastructure in a sustainable manner requires the matching and managing of service levels, risks, projected expenditures and funding to achieve financial sustainability over the 10 year life of the AM Plan.

Figure 7A:  Financial Sustainability Indicators

Figure 8 shows the projected asset renewals in the 10 year planning period from Appendix A. The projected asset renewals are compared to budgeted renewal expenditure in the capital works program and capital renewal expenditure in year 1 of the planning period in Figure 8.

6.2     Funding Strategy

Projected expenditure identified in Section 6.1 is to be funded from future operating and capital budgets.  The funding strategy will be detailed in the organisation’s 10 year long term financial plan.

6.3     Valuation Forecasts

Asset values are forecast to increase as additional assets are added to the asset stock from acquisition by Council.  Figure 9 shows the projected replacement cost asset values over the planning period.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Figure 9:  Projected Asset Values

Depreciation expense values are forecast in line with asset values as shown in Figure 10.

Figure 10:  Projected Depreciation Expense.

The depreciated replacement cost (current replacement cost less accumulated depreciation) will vary over the forecast period depending on the rates of addition of new assets, disposal of old assets and consumption and renewal of existing assets.  Forecast of the assets’ depreciated replacement cost is shown in Figure 11. The effect of contributed and new assets on the depreciated replacement cost is shown in the darker colour.
