COUNCIL MINUTES<br />
TUESDAY 28 AUGUST 2012<br />
Question 10<br />
Now that the Kirkdale Avenue danger has been formally brought to the <strong>Town</strong>’s attention<br />
again, what early action will <strong>Cambridge</strong> now take to resolve this now long-running<br />
anomaly<br />
Response<br />
Technically it is not agreed that the current parking <strong>of</strong> cars in Kirkdale Avenue (Brookdale<br />
Street in letter) creates a danger to either motorists or pedestrians.<br />
As no site inspection has been conducted at this moment, it will be inspected to review<br />
the current parent parking practices.<br />
Question 11<br />
The following was the response to my question presented at the 24 July, 2012 <strong>Council</strong><br />
Meeting: The <strong>Town</strong> has yet to investigate opportunities with Perth Waste to sponsor local<br />
walking trails and the Travel Smart Guide/Brochure will be updated with existing<br />
resources within the next 3-4 months.<br />
Follow up Question: Given that the Perth Waste Sponsorship suggestion was first<br />
submitted to the <strong>Town</strong> on 5 June, 2012 has this opportunity now been thoroughly<br />
investigated nearly three months later - and, if so, what was the outcome<br />
Response<br />
Yes, Perth Waste advised that they would not sponsor a Walking Trail within the <strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Cambridge</strong> as it is not related to their core business which is Waste Management.<br />
Question 12<br />
Follow up Question : For the planned update <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Town</strong>'s Walking Trails brochure<br />
"within the next 3-4 months", is it the <strong>Town</strong>'s intention to actively seek input from<br />
ratepayers and residents towards soliciting their input on recommended Walking Trails for<br />
addition to this brochure - and, if so, how and when will this be actioned<br />
Response<br />
The Local TravelSmart Guide/brochure is prepared by local governments participating in<br />
the state government TravelSmart programme. It is not proposed to seek individual input<br />
from residents in the update <strong>of</strong> this guide as it is an interim measure to enhance the<br />
current guide to include the 'Bush to Beach' trail. However, if Mr Hornel has any<br />
suggestions that could be incorporated they would be considered. The guide provides a<br />
map and general advice on how to get around the <strong>Town</strong> by means other than the car; i.e.<br />
walking, cycling or public transport.<br />
