Mayor’s Report
CEO Performance Review
Prior to the 2016 CEO Performance Review, I requested that Council consider the expertise of a qualified Independent
External Reviewer, this would be best practice and in line with community expectation.
Chief Executive, Roger Sweetman, has advised Council he would be happy with this process and believes the
involvement of an Independent Human Resource specialist would be appropriate.
Robe Local Features in SBS Documentary
SBS has been screening a documentary titled “Vietnam: the War that Made Us”. Local gentleman, Mr Graham Snook is
one of the returned service men that are interviewed. Episodes of the three part documentary are available on SBS on
demand, go to documentaries.
Limestone Coast Climate Adaptation Plan
Representatives from local Councils, Regional Development Limestone Coast, South East Natural Resources
Management Board, Emergency Services, industry groups and other community groups have been working over the
past 12 months on the Climate Adaptation Plan for our region.
The importance of this Plan will become increasingly evident over time as the day-to-day reality of adapting to changing
climatic conditions becomes a reality.
Storm surge and sea level impacts are already impacting our coastline. With impacts on every South East coast town,
Councils are having to deal with problems at greater expense and more frequently.
For Robe, sand management and foreshore dune protection is a vital component.
Implementing a comprehensive Beach Access Strategy will be key to ensuring ongoing resilience to the beach and
dune system.

Public Health Week 2016
South Australia’s first Public Health Week was held from 4 to 8 April 2016, aligning with the World Health Organisation’s World Health Day on 7
April. Public Health Week 2016 will raise awareness about and acknowledge the importance of public health activities in the day-to-day lives of
South Australians.
SA Health acknowledges and values the strong partnership and role of local government and other stakeholders in relation to public health
planning and action. Public Health Week provides an opportunity to jointly celebrate the successes of local public health initiatives in protecting
public health, preventing illness and promoting health and wellbeing in communities across our state.
Public Health is what we do collectively as a society to create the conditions and environments that allow for the health and wellbeing of all South
Australians.
Public Health Week 2016 is to:




raise awareness about the significant role public health plays on a daily basis to protect public health, prevent illness and promote
wellbeing
strengthen existing partnerships with local government and partner agencies to support activities that highlight the importance and value of
public health
provide opportunities for councils to highlight their regional public health plans and showcase public health achievements and actions
showcase examples of public health excellence in metropolitan and regional South Australia through the Minister for Health - Excellence in
Public Health Awards for local councils.
What is public health?
Public health is the health of individuals in the context of the wider community and may involve a combination of policies, programs and
safeguards designed to:


protect, maintain or promote the health of the community at large, including where one or more persons may be the focus of any
safeguards, actions or response, or
prevent or reduce the incidence of disease, injury or disability in the community.
Public Health touches the lives of all South Australians every day in unseen ways. In the background, food standards are monitored, public health
surveillance maintained, immunisations delivered and disease notification registers managed. When something goes wrong in the public health
domain, like food poisoning outbreaks and public swimming pool contamination, the impact can be devastating. Public health works behind the
scenes to ensure South Australians avoid illness and injury and have enhanced quality of life.
Chief Executive’s Report
Beach Access Strategy
Council considered the many responses received during the community consultation period in relation to the Draft Beach Access Strategy and to
ensure that Council has all the relevant information before proceeding with the next draft of the Strategy, has deferred making a decision until it
has met on site with officers of the Coast Protection Board and sought advice from a qualified landscape architect.
This meeting will provide elected members with the opportunity to become fully conversant with all the issues relating to the strategy.
The progress of this matter will be reported in future newsletters
Council will be corresponding individually with all respondents advising them of Councils decision and Council would like to thank all those who
commented on the first draft of the strategy.
Draft Limestone Coast Bushfire Management Area Plan
The public is invited to attend a public consultation session on the draft Limestone Coast Bushfire Management Area Plan. The session will be run
as an “open house” style meeting so that the public can view the information and ask questions. The session will be held on 4 th May 2016 at the
Robe Council Chamber from 3pm to 6pm.
Removal of Street Trees
Earlier this year several of the Norfolk Island Pines adjacent the coastal walking path on Mundy Terrace dropped large limbs, on one occasion
landing on the public seating adjacent the coastal path. Fortunately no one was injured in this instance however to insure public safety, Council
engaged an Arborist to inspect the trees and report on their condition to Council.
The report was received and considered at the April Council meeting and in line with the recommendation, 2 Norfolk Island Pines in this location
will be removed and 1 Eucalyptus in Victoria Street will also have to be removed.
It is very unfortunate that this action has to be taken however the safety of the public is Council’s prime concern.
Council will be replacing the two Norfolk Island pines in a suitable location on the foreshore and will also be planting a replacement street tree in
Victoria Street. Council will also be undertaking maintenance of the existing Norfolk Island Pines to improve their health and ensure their longevity.

Chief Executive’s Report
Robe Jetty Repairs
At the time of writing this article Council is yet to receive advice from the Department of Planning Transport and Infrastructure in relation to the
condition of the Robe Jetty. Council will keep the community informed as this matter proceeds.
Robe Golf Course Expansion Development Plan Amendment
Council received and considered the community and government agency submissions relating to the Robe Golf Course Expansion Development
Plan Amendment and would like to thank those members of the community who forwarded submissions.
The Development Plan Amendment will be amended to reflect the matters raised in the submissions and will then be forwarded to the Minister for
Planning for approval.
Lease of portion of Lake Charra Reserve
Council has resolved to offer a twelve month lease of portion of the Lake Charra Reserve to the operators of the Lakeside Caravan Park to allow
for unpowered camping during the peak holiday season .
In response to the concern raised by the community during the consultation phase the area to be leased will still allow for a walking trail around the
lake perimeter.
The lessee will be responsible to maintain the area and keep the water level in Lake Charra at a level which helps to eliminate the offensive order
that emanates from the Lake.
If this 12 month lease period is successful and all parties are satisfied with the arrangement, Council will consider extending the time period of the
lease in twelve months’ time.
Sale of Unmade Roads – Robe Golf Course
Council has finally completed the formal process which will see the unmade portion of the road reserves, Evans Cave Road and Brewer Road,
closed and transferred to the Robe Golf Club, Council and the State Government.
Straddle Lift restrictions
In response to engineering advice Council has had to place a 20 tonne lift limit on the Straddle Lift Jetty at the Robe Marina. While this restriction
is in place Council are investigating all options with respect to providing an alternative lifting system at the Marina as well as the replacement of the
existing Straddle Lift jetty.
Rate capping
Local Government usually takes an apolitical stance on state and federal issues as it has to work with whoever is in power in Adelaide and
Canberra however there are occasions when Council needs to respond to a position taken to ensure that our community is provided with
information on the implications of a certain action or policy.
The South Australian Liberal Party have a recently released a policy which if elected would see the introduction of rate capping for Local
Government.
Presented below is the Local Government Associations response to this policy.

WANTED - used postage stamps
Margie Thomas from the Robe Lions Club is collecting
used postage stamps for the Lions Australia Stamp Club.
Each year, the Stamp Club trades both Nationally and
Internationally with fellow Lions members. ALL profits
from their trading, generally about $6,000 to $7,000, is
then donated to the Australian Lions Mobility Fund who
use the money to purchase mobility walkers. These
machines enable severely physically handicapped
children to walk and be mobile, often for the first time
and each unit can cost several thousand dollars each.
If you are able to help, please drop the stamps off to
either the Post Office or our new Lions shop 'Second
Chance'. Alternatively, ring Margie on 0418806775.
