<strong>COUNCIL</strong> MINUTESTUESDAY 26 FEBRUARY 2013ResponseSome concerns were raised by nearby residents in relation to the proposal to install lightsat the City Beach Tennis Club. Accordingly, Council took these concerns intoconsideration and restricted the Club's hours for night tennis.Verbal QuestionsPhil Orr, 17 Jubilee Crescent, City BeachQuestionI have recently been campaigning against the BioLINc project and I have today receiveda letter from Mr Eric Lumsden, Department <strong>of</strong> Planning advising that Council isconsidering whether to apply for funding for the BioLINc project at its Council meeting tobe held on 26 February 2013 and will hold a Special Electors meeting on 4 March 2013 toallow for discussion <strong>of</strong> such concerns. Will Council be applying for funding tonight?ResponseNo. The Council is not considering a proposal for funding for the BioLINc project attonight's meeting.Alex Jones, Nedlands resident <strong>of</strong> behalf <strong>of</strong> Mrs HondrosQuestionI have been listening to your responses to Mrs Hondros' questions and on a number <strong>of</strong>occasions I have heard the words 'safe' and 'safely'. Why does Council use the word'safe' in its responses to Mrs Hondros' questions when the WA Pesticides guidelines andthe APBMA Act recommend that those words not be used. It is inappropriate for Councilto use 'safe' and 'safely' in regards to its use <strong>of</strong> herbicides because they are not safe.ResponseThe question will be taken on notice.Sharon Smailes, 37 Branksome Gardens, City BeachRe: Item CR13.6 - City Beach Tennis Club - Request for Additional Use <strong>of</strong> LightsQuestion 1Would it have been appropriate to inform both Councillors and close neighbours that theCity Beach Tennis Club does in fact have a liquor licence which enables it to serve liquorfor a minimum <strong>of</strong> 35 hours each week. These hours extend to 11 pm one night per weekand 10 pm two nights per week. They are also able to get extended licences forparticular events. Is the Council aware that this is affecting my family's sleep, health andthe amenity <strong>of</strong> where we live. This is relentless being 7 days per week every day <strong>of</strong> theyear.H:\Ceo\Gov\Council Minutes for Web Site\2013\February 2013\A Council Front.docx 8
