Update: Performing Arts Centre

During December 2021 and January 2022, Council asked the Community what it thought about a proposal to build a PAC (Performing Arts Centre) at the new Morialta Secondary College site. The consultation revealed:

• 85% of Respondents supported the establishment of a PAC in the Council area
• 81% supported the proposed partnership with the Department for Education

During 2022, Council engaged consultants who undertook concept design and scoping work.

This work resulted in a revised cost estimate of $30 million (from the original $24 million estimate) and increased operating costs to $400,000 (from the original estimate of $200,000). On 5 September 2022, Council endorsed the Draft Concept Design for Community consultation.

Immediately following this was Council Election Caretaker Period which precludes community consultation from occurring, followed by Christmas.

At its 17 January 2023 meeting, Council resolved that the Performing Arts Centre be dependent upon Council obtaining grants equivalent to 50% of the capital cost.

Following this, at its 7 February 2023 meeting, Council moved to cease all work on a proposed Performing Arts Centre on the Morialta Secondary College site, and to explore the development of a new Community Hub (to include but not limited to a new Council Administration Centre and Performing Arts Centre) at the current location of the Council Office at Rostrevor. Revenue generating options and co-working spaces will also be explored. To do this work Council will consider allocating $300,000 in the draft 2023/2024 Annual Business Plan and Budget to prepare Concept Plans and cost estimates, and advise the Department for Education (and other Government stakeholders) that Council is no longer pursuing the establishment of a Performing Arts Centre on the site of the Morialta Secondary College and thank them for their efforts to date.

Manresa Court Road Closing Process and Land Swap

We thank everyone who provided feedback on this consultation. Council Staff have prepared community engagement outcome reports on the Road Closing Process and the Land Swap proposal and these are being presented to Council this Tuesday evening (1 November at 7pm). You can view the reports in the Council Agenda from page 53.

For your information, the staff recommendation in the report for the Manresa Court Road Closing Process is:

• That Council does not proceed with the road closing process for a portion of Manresa Court, Athelstone and requests that Staff advise the Surveyor‑General and all Objectors and Applicants for Easement that Council is discontinuing this process.

The staff recommendation in the report for the Manresa Court Land Swap is:

• That Council advise St Ignatius’ College and the people that responded to the Community consultation process (where possible) that Council will not take any further action in relation to a land swap of a portion of Manresa Court, Athelstone through leasing arrangements for land encompassing Fifth Creek at allotments CT5094/602 (north of Manresa Court) or CT5565/126 (south of Manresa Court).

Local Government Elections

By now you should have received your ballot pack in the mail. Council is aware that some members of the Community have not received their packs. If this is you, and you wish to vote, you must apply for a replacement pack by next Thursday 3 November. Visit the Electoral Commission of South Australia website for more information.

Return rates for ballots are much lower compared to the same point at the 2018 election. If you want councillors who are passionate about the things you are passionate about, make sure you vote. It is your voice, and it is powerful. Whilst voting in Council Elections is not compulsory, we encourage you to do so!

Local Government Election Caretaker Period

All councils in South Australia are now in the Election Caretaker Period in preparation for local government elections in November. During this time, Councils assume a 'caretaker mode', avoiding actions and decisions which could, or could be perceived as intended to influence voters or otherwise to have a significant impact on the incoming Council. As such, Council will not be undertaking any new Community consultations until November.

Information about the candidates who have nominated for the City of Campbelltown is available from our website.

Recent Council Decisions

At its meeting on Monday 5 September, Council considered a range of projects which have involved community engagement.

Manresa Court Road Closing Process and Land Swap Next Steps

The Road Closing process is a legislatively prescribed consultation which requires Council to hold a meeting and invite persons who have made an objection. The purpose of the meeting is to consider all objections and provide opportunity for people to make a verbal statement in support of their written submission. Due to the legislative nature of the project, Council endorsed this meeting and consideration of the consultation outcomes to occur during the Election Caretaker Period.

Lochiel Park Golf Building Masterplan

Council adopted the Lochiel Park Golf Building Masterplan. Next steps for Council are to identify funding opportunities for a detailed design stage. To see the Community Engagement Outcomes report, go to page 87 of the Council Agenda.

Animal Management Plan

Council also endorsed the Animal Management Plan and approved it being submitted to the Dog and Cat Management Board. As a result of the Community's feedback a number of amendments were made to the plan prior to it being recommended to Council for endorsement. The final plan includes clarifications relating to on-and off-leash dog walking areas. To see the full changes, see the report at page 211 of the Council Agenda.

Recognition and Thank You

We would like to thank everyone who has contributed to Council consultations during this 4 year term of Council, and in particular, the 1425 people that have joined and participated in our Connect 2 Campbelltown online engagement program since October 2020. We thank you for your contribution to engagement and the improvement of our city.

We would also like to personally thank Renee for the administrative work she undertook on engagement projects between February and August this year. We couldn't have completed the 15 engagement projects undertaken during this period without Renee's input.
