Nature of Council’s Role in Decision Making Advocacy: When Council advocates on its own behalf or on behalf of its community to
another level of government/body/agency. Executive/Strategic: The substantial direction setting and oversight role of the Council, e.g. adopting
plans and reports, accepting tenders, directing operations, setting and amending budgets.
Legislative: Includes adopting local laws, town planning schemes and policies. Review: When Council reviews decisions made by Officers. Quasi‐Judicial: When Council determines an application/matter that directly affects a person’s
rights and interests. The Judicial character arises from the obligations to abide by the principles of natural justice.
Examples of Quasi‐Judicial authority include town planning applications, building licences, applications for other permits/licences (e.g. under Health Act, Dog Act or Local Laws) and other decisions that may be appealable to the State Administrative Tribunal.

Pursuant to Clause 7 of Division 2 of Schedule 2.3 of the Local Government Act 1995, the Council is required to appoint a Deputy Mayor at its first meeting following an Ordinary Election Day. Accordingly, the Mayor will call for Councillors to nominate as candidates at the meeting, or alternatively nominations may be made in writing to the CEO prior to the meeting. All Councillors, including newly elected Councillors are eligible to nominate. The roles and responsibilities of the Deputy Mayor are outlined in the Local Government Act 1995: 2.9 Role of the deputy mayor or deputy president
The deputy mayor or deputy president performs the functions of the mayor or president when authorised to do so under section 5.34.
Section 5.34 states: 5.34 When deputy mayors and deputy presidents can act
If – (a) the office of mayor or president is vacant; or
(b) the mayor or president is not available or is unable or unwilling to perform the functions of the mayor or president,
then the deputy mayor may perform the functions of mayor and the deputy president may perform the functions of president, as the case requires.
2.8 Role of mayor or president (1) The mayor or president ‐ (a) presides at meetings in accordance with this Act; (b) provides leadership and guidance to the community in the district; (c) carries out civic and ceremonial duties on behalf of the local government; (d) speaks on behalf of the local government;

The Deputy Mayor is also entitled to an amount equal to one quarter of the Mayoral allowance in addition to Council sitting fees. In the event that there is more than one nomination for the position of Deputy Mayor, the Chief Executive Officer will act in the position of Returning Officer to conduct the ballot as required under the Local Government Act 1995. The ballot for the position of Deputy Mayor will be conducted pursuant to the provisions of Clauses 8 and 9 of Division 2 of Schedule 2.3 of the Local Government Act 1995 as outlined below: 8. How deputy mayor or deputy president is elected
(1) The council is to elect a councillor (other than the mayor or president) to fill the office.
(2) The election is to be conducted in accordance with the procedure prescribed by the
mayor or president, or if he or she is not present, by the CEO. (3) Nominations for the office are to be given to the person conducting the election in
writing before the meeting or during the meeting before the close of nominations. (3a) Nominations close at the meeting at a time announced by the person conducting
the election, which is to be a sufficient time after the announcement by that person that nominations are about to close to allow for any nominations made to be dealt with.
(4) If a councillor is nominated by another councillor the person conducting the election
is not to accept the nomination unless the nominee has advised the person conducting the election, orally or in writing, that he or she is willing to be nominated for the office.
(5) The council members are to vote on the matter by secret ballot as if they were
electors voting at an election. (6) Subject to clause 9(1) the votes cast under subclause (5) are to be counted, and the
successful candidate determined, in accordance with Schedule 4.1 as if those votes were votes cast at an election.
(7) As soon as is practicable after the result of the election is known, the person
conducting the election is to declare and give notice of the result in accordance with regulations, if any.
9. Votes may be cast a second time
(1) If, when the votes are cast under clause 8(5) are counted, there is an equality of votes between 2 or more candidates who are the only candidates in, or remaining in, the count, the count is to be discontinued and, not more than 7 days later, a special meeting of the council is to be held.
(2) Any nomination for the office may be withdrawn, and further nominations may be
made, before or when the special meeting is held.
29 October 2019 Agenda – Council Meeting
Page 11
How to count votes and ascertain the result of an election is covered through the provisions of Schedule 4.1 of the Local Government Act 1995 as outlined below: 1. The number of votes given for each candidate is to be ascertained. 2. If the election is to fill the office of mayor or president, the candidate who receives the
greater or greatest number of votes is elected. 3. If the election is to fill one office of councillor, the candidate who receives the greater or
greatest number of votes is elected. 4. If the election is to fill 2 or more offices of councillor, the candidates elected are —
(a) the candidate who receives the greatest number of votes; and (b) the candidate who receives the next highest number of votes; and (c) the candidate who receives the next highest number of votes, and so on up to the number of offices to be filled.
5. If 2 or more candidates receive the same number of votes so that clause 2, 3 or 4 cannot be
applied, the returning officer is to draw lots in accordance with regulations to determine which candidate is elected.
The successful nominee will be declared elected to the position of Deputy Mayor for a two‐year term and will be required to read and sign a form titled "Declaration for the Office of Deputy Mayor".

Summary The City of Bunbury elections were held on Saturday 19 October 2019 to fill six vacancies, all for the position of Councillor. Section 5.11 of the Local Government Act 1995 stipulates that positions on Council committees become vacant at each ordinary election day. The purpose of this report is for Council to consider appointments to the CEO Performance Review Committee (the Committee). Executive Recommendation That Council appoints Councillors _____________, ________________, ________________ and _____________ as members of the CEO Performance Review Committee. Voting Requirements: Absolute Majority Required Strategic Relevance Theme 4: Our City. Goal: Civic leadership, partnerships and sound governance in delivering with and
for the community. Objective 4.2: A highly‐engaged and involved community, working together on strategy
development and implementation. Regional Impact Statement N/A Background The CEO Performance Review Committee exists as a legal option under the terms of the Chief Executive Officer’s contract of employment as a mechanism for Council to review the performance of the CEO. Immediately prior to the October 2019 election, the Committee had the following composition:
1. Mayor Gary Brennan 2. Councillor Jaysen Miguel
29 October 2019 Agenda – Council Meeting
Page 18
3. Councillor Betty McCleary 4. Councillor James Hayward
The Terms of Reference for the Committee is ‘to undertake the annual performance and salary review for the CEO and report to Council’. Given the current CEO’s anniversary date, Council consideration as to how it wishes to undertake the annual review of the CEO is required as soon as possible following the 2019 election. In this regard, the continuation of the Committee is recommended, noting that Council decision 259/19 requests the Policy Review and Development Committee (PRDC) review existing Council Policy – Annual Performance and Salary Review at its next meeting. It is important to note that any legislative and contractual obligations to review the performance of the CEO will override any policy process. The intent of the PRDC reviewing the existing policy is to ensure consistency between the policy and the City’s legislative and contractual obligations.
Council Policy Compliance N/A Legislative Compliance Subdivision 2 of Division 2 of Part 5 of the Local Government Act 1995 deals with establishment of committees. Officer Comments As the Committee exists as a legal option under the terms of the Chief Executive Officer’s contract of employment as a mechanism for Council to review the performance of the CEO, the continuation of the Committee is recommended as is the status quo in terms of membership composition.

Summary The City of Bunbury elections were held on Saturday 19 October 2019 to fill six vacancies, all for the position of Councillor. Section 5.11 of the Local Government Act 1995 stipulates that positions on Council committees become vacant at each ordinary election day. The purpose of this report is for Council to consider appointments to the Policy Review and Development Committee (PRDC). Executive Recommendation That Council: 1. Appoints Councillors _____________, ________________, ________________ and
_____________ as members of the Policy Review and Development Committee. 2. Re‐affirms that the membership of the Policy Review and Development Committee
includes a representative from the Bunbury‐Geographe Chamber of Commerce and Industry in accordance with Council decision 19/18.
Voting Requirements: Absolute Majority Required Strategic Relevance Theme 4: Our City. Goal: Civic leadership, partnerships and sound governance in delivering with and
for the community. Objective 4.2: A highly‐engaged and involved community, working together on strategy
development and implementation. Regional Impact Statement N/A Background Prior to the 2019 City of Bunbury election, the PRDC comprised four Elected Members plus a representative from the Bunbury‐Geographe Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BGCCI) as follows:

Page 24
1. Mayor Gary Brennan 2. Councillor Jaysen Miguel 3. Councillor Todd Brown 4. Councillor James Hayward 5. Mr Mark Seaward – BGCCI The Terms of Reference for this committee are as follows: 1. To review all existing Bunbury City Council policies within a two year period, in line with the
local government election cycle and facilitate the development of new policies for consideration by Council on an ongoing basis.
2. To make recommendations to Council on matters of policy, policy and local law review and policy and local law development.

4. To allow any draft policy developed and fully considered by another Advisory Committee of Council to be referred directly to Council for consideration.
5. To provide Bunbury City Councillors with assistance and support to develop new Council policies.
The continuation of the PRDC post the October 2019 election was foreshadowed prior to the election itself, with certain policy matters being referred back to the PRDC for consideration via Council decision (note Council decision 259/19 concerning the review of Council Policy – Annual Performance and Salary Review). The continuation of this Committee is therefore implied.

Closing Funding Surplus to 30 June 2020 is forecast at $615K, which is $569K more than the Current Budget Closing Funding Surplus of $46K. The favourable variance is mainly due to the revised Closing Surplus at 30 June 2019 being carried over, which will be confirmed following the City’s annual audit in September 2019. Of this forecast surplus, it will be recommended that $100K be allocated to Bunbury Promotions, $250K be used to reduce the amount borrowed for the Stirling Street Arts Centre redevelopment. With these allocations, the unallocated Closing Funding Surplus to 30 June 2020 will be $265K.
Already incorporated into existing budget is an additional recommendation to Council as part of the October 2019 Budget Review, that $340K is used for major repairs to the South West Sports Centre leisure pool. This allocation is already built into the existing budget due to the urgency of the works and therefore does not impact on the forecast surplus of $615K.

How are we tracking against our budgeted targets?
Operating Surplus Ratio Minimum Target is > 1
A measure of the City’s ability to cover its operational costs including depreciation and have funds left over to cover capital expenditure (including principal loan repayments) without relying on debt or reserves. (Note: This ratio is based on the forecast to 30 June 2020)
Bunbury’s Performance is (0.16)
Do we meet the target?
NO
The reason that the Operating Surplus Ratio does not meet the minimum target is that operating expenditure exceeds operating revenue. This is being addressed with the following actions:
1. All operating expenditure is subject to review with the aim to reduce costs. 2. A significant amount of operating expenditure is in depreciation ($14.6M or 21% of total
operating expenditure). 3. Operating revenue is also subject to review.
Asset Sustainability Ratio Minimum Target is > 0.90
Measures if the City is replacing or renewing existing non-financial assets at the same rate that its overall asset stock is wearing out.
Depreciation for 2019/20 is forecast at $14.6M.
Bunbury’s Performance is 1.32
Do we meet the target?
Capital expenditure (renewal and upgrade) for 2019/20 is $19.2M.
YES

Debt Levels
As at 30 June 2020 the City’s loan liability is forecast at $14.3M. This includes the following loans:
Road Works and Path Constructions $2.9M New Depot Construction $2.5M Bunbury Entertainment Centre Expansion $1.9M Civic Administration Building $1.8M Stirling Street Arts Centre Redevelopment $1.1M Stormwater Drainage $0.9M
The Debt Service Cover Ratio measures the City’s ability to service debt. The higher the ratio the stronger the position the City is in to repay annual principal and interest repayments. The City continues to meet the Department of Local Government basic standard of over 200% in 2019/20.
