6. Whitwood Road North - Capital Works 2021-2022 and 2022-2023
Resolution: Moved by Councillor Nicole Jonic:
6. Whitwood Road North - Capital Works 2021-2022 and 2022-2023
The Whitwood Road North closed landfill is located at 152 Whitwood Road, New Chum, Queensland (Lot 4 RP185204). The current site capping is not suitable due to on-going issues of erosion. To mitigate these issues, and to prevent potential future matters of non-compliance, it is recommended that portions of the landfill capping is regraded with appropriate materials, particularly focussed on covering steepened areas and replacing with an updated capping layer. This will be done to meet industry standards and requirements under the Environmental Protection Act 1994 . It is considered that a clay capping layer or a geosynthetic clay layer are the most suitable options for the capping.
Due to the environmentally sensitive nature of the site and recent interest in the site from the Department of Environment and Science, it is recommended that the project be considered for inclusion in the 2021-2022 and 2022-2023 CAPEX budget with works spanning across two years. Initial estimated costs are between $6,500,000 and $7,300,000.
DECISION
Moved by Councillor Nicole Jonic:
Seconded by Deputy Mayor Marnie Doyle:
That the proposed regrading and final capping of the Whitwood Road (North) Closed landfill, as detailed in the report by the Planning Officer (Environmental Management) to an estimated cost of $6,500,000 to $7,300,000, be considered when developing Council’s Capital works portfolio over the next two financial years for 2021-2022 and 2022-2023.

10. Withdrawal of Planning Scheme Major Amendment Package 02/2018
Resolution: Moved by Councillor Kate Kunzelmann:
10. Withdrawal of Planning Scheme Major Amendment Package 02/2018
This is a report concerning the withdrawal of Planning Scheme Major Amendment Package 02/2018 (Attachment 1 and 2 - the Amendment Package) originally intended to amend Part 14 - Springfield Structure Plan of the 2006 Ipswich Planning Scheme, and approved by Council (the Interim Administrator) on 13 November 2018.
The Amendment Package was intended to align Council’s planning and approval processes with Queensland Court of Appeal judgement QCA 266, delivered on 12 October 2018 (Attachment 3 – Supreme Court of Queensland - Springfield Land Corporation Pty Limited v Cherish Enterprises Pty Ltd & Anor [2018] QCA 266) and also to amend the alternative dispute resolution provisions of the Springfield Structure Plan.
Subsequent to the Supreme Court ruling, the State government passed The Forest Wind Farm Development Act 2020, assented to on 20 August 2020, which includes amendments to the Planning Act 2016 (the Act). These amendments to the Act constitute new provisions for the Springfield Structure Plan and override the need for the changes proposed in Planning Scheme Major Amendment Package 02/2018.
DECISION
Moved by Councillor Kate Kunzelmann:
Seconded by Councillor Nicole Jonic:
That Council resolve to withdraw the Planning Scheme Major Amendment Package 02/2018 which proposed amendments to Part 14 – Springfield Structure Plan of the Ipswich Planning Scheme due to the introduction of The Forest Wind Farm Development Act 2020 and associated Planning Act 2016 amendments.
