8 QUESTIONS FOR WHICH NOTICE HAS BEEN GIVEN
The following information was provided by the Chief Executive Officer in response to a Question on
Notice from Cr Tina Elliott on 19 March 2021: -
1. How is the Exclusion Fencing progressing?
Of the 10 sites which received funding through the Wild Dog Exclusion Fencing program,
five sites have been completed which include Jalloonda, Luckham, Lanifer, Inverdoone and
Vindex. The remaining sites including the Western River Cluster, Nadjayamba, Newlands
and Hillview 1 and 2 are yet to be completed.
The following information was provided by the Chief Executive Officer in response to a Question on
Notice from Cr Gavin Baskett on 19 March 2021: -
1. Is it possible for Councillors to receive a report which provides an update on the
Exclusion Fencing projects?
15 April 2021 22723
ORDINARY COUNCIL MEETING AGENDA Winton Shire Council
Yes. The following summary report has been prepared by the Biosecurity Officer: -
The original completion date for the Wild Dog Exclusion Fencing program was 30 June
2020 with approvals being granted for this to be extended to 31 December 2020 and then
30 April 2021. Hillview have recently requested a further extension as their creeks are
running from the recent rainfall and are requesting a further 4-6 week extension. This is yet
to be agreed to by the Department of Agriculture and Water Resources.

The following information was provided by the Chief Executive Officer in response to Questions on
Notice from Cr Frank Standfast on 19 March 2021: -
1. Does Winton Shire Council have a system in place to carry out regular defect
inspections within the town area on elements such as street surfacing, kerb and
channel and the walking track?
The Asset Manager has prepared the following response: -
There are two components to inspections:

2. Does Council ever conduct audits of the signage within the Shire (including towns)
to confirm compliance with the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices?
No. The Asset Manager is unaware of any comprehensive audit of road signage across the
Shire being carried out. Annual road inspections combine condition assessments and
defect identification and are also used to identify damaged and missing signage.
3. Could Council send a letter to the Department of Housing asking them to maintain
the yards of their unoccupied housing in Winton?
Yes. A written communication has been forwarded to the Department of Housing
requesting these properties be maintained. I have since received confirmation this request
will be actioned.
4. Could Council investigate options for erecting a plaque in recognition of efforts of
the “Winton Community” during the floods of 2019?
Yes, this could be investigated if Council directs staff to do this. Over the years, the Winton
community has endured many significant flood events and it is worth considering whether
we wish to just focus on the 2019 event. There is currently no specific budget identified for
a project such as this and consideration could be given in the 2021/2022 budget. Officers
can present options based on an identified budget. Alternatively, options can be presented

memorials are provided below: -

5. Does Council have a procedure in place to manage Winton’s social media presence?
ie KPI to post on the Experience Winton Facebook site a certain number of times per
month or similar?
Council has the following performance indicators identified in the Operational Plan in
relation to Council’s social media presence: -
• Content plans developed and delivered;
• Demonstrated growth in social media following and engagement;
• Content development for distribution across all owned, earned and bought
channels.
The number of posts is generally not used as a KPI as posting consistency and quality is
more important than quantity and frequency. Recently, the posting content on the
Experience Winton site was less than optimal, however this has now been addressed. A
content plan for the Experience Winton site has now been developed and a copy of this will
be forwarded to Elected Members. Our number of followers this financial year has grown
from 7,521 to 10,956 – an increase of 3,435.

SUMMARY
This report summarises the process and assessment for tenders received for the Lark Quarry

REPORT
Council was awarded a section (CH 0.145 to 4.715KM) of pave and seal construction on the Lark
Quarry Access Road by the Queensland Reconstruction Authority. This project requires council
crews to prepare the subgrade, import spread and compact the gravel base to Main Road
Standards and seal with a prime and two coat seal. As council does not have a sealing crew, this
component was put out to contract. The tender released requires a suitably qualified contractor to
provide a full-service sealing crew, which includes a sprayer, rollers, trucks and cockerels, loader,
bitumen and stone.
In accordance with Council’s Purchasing Policy, a request for quote was sent to Local Buy’s
Prequalified Suppliers via Council’s public electronic tendering portal (Vendor Panel). Quotes
closed on 25 March 2021.
The Request for Quotation and scope of works required tenderers to submit a lump sum price for
the completion of the specified works. At the close of the tender period, a total of 6 (Six) Quotation
submissions had been lodged. All Quotations received were assessed for conformance with the
Item 13.1 - 15 April 2021 22730ORDINARY COUNCIL MEETING AGENDA Winton Shire Council
Conditions of Tender and Specification and determined to be conforming. Submissions were
assessed against the predetermined scoring criteria, according to the level of information and
detail supplied within their submissions, along with any known performance.

Reference Responsibility Measure
Sport and Recreation – Recreational Facilities Director of Works Upgrade horse stalls
To develop new and (part of masterplan)
maintain existing

recreational facilities
appropriate to the needs
of the community
Budget Reference: Showground Stables
Asset Management Reference: Horse Stables
SUMMARY
Winton Shire Council had deferred the renewal of stables (2019) at the Winton Showgrounds due
to cost which was driven by a sub-optimal placement (replacing like for like). Following this,
Council developed a Masterplan for the facility which addressed the orientation of the stables,
providing a more optimised placement and expected savings on construction due to the reduction
of shade required.
Council budgeted and allocated funding in the 2020/2021 financial year to build new stables in
accordance with the Masterplan layout and asked for tenderers to provide three prices. The first
stable (incorporating the swab room), the first and second stable, the first, second and third stable.
Council received one tender response from Mann Made Construction.
Description Amount (ex GST)
Stable 1 and Swab Room $404,200
Stable 1, Swab Room and Stable 2 $744,400
Stable 1, Swab Room and Stable 2 and Stable 3 $1,084,600
RECOMMENDATION
1. THAT Council receives the report.
2. THAT Council seeks approval for Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Phase 2
funding of $109,043.97 to be reallocated from the Showgrounds bar under the grandstand
project to the Showgrounds Stables project.
3. THAT Council award Tender WSCT-2021-29 for the components of Stable 1 (including
Swab Room) and Stable 2 to Mann Made Construction for $744,400 (GST exclusive).
Item 13.3 - 15 April 2021 22734ORDINARY COUNCIL MEETING AGENDA Winton Shire Council
REPORT
Historical Context
Council previously sought tenders in April 2019 for the renewal of the ‘middle’ stable block
incorporating a swab room. The design was for 20 stables and a swab room – a summary of
tenders received is provided in Table 1. Prices were varied – excluding the two tenders over $1m,
gives an average of $535,816.00.

JKC Building $382,036

Johns Lyng Group $684,767
Quadric $1,000,184
PJM Civil $1,263,829
Table 1 Results of 2019 tender
The tender closed on 30 April 2019 with Council electing not to proceed with the project based on
the tenders received. The general feeling was the price was too high and it would not be the most
optimal solution.
Masterplan and Redesign
The Masterplan shows the stables all constructed in an east-west orientation which reduces the
overhang required to give shade to the stables and provided for a more economical design. The
intention is to sequentially demolish and construct the new stables providing a maximum number of
usable stables during construction. To achieve the required outcome, Council tendered the project
as three portions as shown in Table 2.
Portion Description
1 Stable 1 and Swab Room
2 Stable 1, Swab Room and Stable 2
3 Stable 1, Swab Room and Stable 2 and Stable 3
Table 2 Portions of Work
The project was tendered on LG Tenderbox / LG Vendorpanel and while there were numerous
downloads of the tender package, there was only one response.
Item 13.3 - 15 April 2021 22735ORDINARY COUNCIL MEETING AGENDA Winton Shire Council
Response
Council received one tender response from Mann Made Construction which included prices for all
three portions. Results are given in Table 3.
Description Amount (ex GST)
Stable 1 and Swab Room $404,200
Stable 1, Swab Room and Stable 2 $744,400
Stable 1, Swab Room and Stable 2 and Stable 3 $1,084,600
Table 3 Summary of prices given by Mann Made Construction. The first stable which includes the
swab room is $404,200. Each additional stable is $340,200 on top of that.
Budget
Council have a range of funding sources for the project. A summary of which is provided in Table
4.
Source Amount
Works For Queensland (19-21) $400,000
WSC Capital $70,000
LRCI phase 2 $163,500
LRCI phase 2 (bar project if reallocated) $109,000
Total Current Funding Available $742,500
Table 4 Summary of funding sources.
Recommended
Based on historical prices, the quotes from Mann Made Construction and the funding sources, it is
recommended Council proceed and engage Mann Made Construction to complete the first two
stables.
While the quoted price is very close to the funding available, there might be an opportunity if
Council calls for quotes for removal of stables that are currently on part of the planned site.
Delaying the third stable until more funding is available gives Council the opportunity to clean up
the north of the site – the washdown pad and round yard.
Delivery
Winton Shire Council is moving towards a more transparent process with project and contract
management. To achieve this, the Asset/Project Manager proposes the use of a Value/Risk
approach called the Kraljic Matrix. This matrix balances the value and risk of a project against an
appropriate project management control.
The Stable Renewal project is FOCUSED. The project is not without some risk in terms of
complexity in design and desired outcomes. There are several key quality control factors
surrounding the swab room as well as the final material finish.
As such the project will be delivered under an Australian Standard AS4906-2002 (Construction
Only: Minor Works). The Contract documents were supplied by the architect for the project, Mr
Chris Pritchett and will be administered by Council staff.
The Contract will be lump sum.

Description
ROUTINE These contracts are low value and low risk, usually transactional in nature.
Minimum management and oversight required.
LEVERAGED These contracts are high value but low risk. The priority will be on how to
leverage the value as much as possible – best value for money, lowest unit rates.
Strict control of control of variations and quality. Quotes or tenders for supply of
goods and services in well established markets. Greater than $1M.
FOCUSED These contracts are higher risk than routine contracts but not high in value.
These projects need to be closely monitored to ensure quality of outcome and
avoid variations or scope creep.
STRATEGIC These contracts are high value and high risk. These projects require the most
amount of rigour and attention to manage the contract and experienced contract
managers. Greater than $1M.
RISK MANAGEMENT
The risk associated with the recommendations contained within the report have been assessed as
Moderate (Consequence) and Possible (Likelihood) giving an overall assessment as Medium 9.
This assessment has been based on the requirement to receive approval for the reallocation of

REPORT
Council received correspondence from the Queensland Reconstruction Authority dated 12 March
2021 advising Expressions of Interest for the 2020/2021 Queensland Resilience and Risk
Reduction Fund (QRRRF) were now open.
The total funding available is $19.1m which comprises two components: -
- $13.1m which is available to local governments, state agencies and non-
government organisations across Queensland;
- $6m earmarked for the 14 local government areas defined by the
Commonwealth Government (of which Winton Shire Council is one).
As EoI’s needed to be submitted by 7 April 2021, a Council Workshop was held on 29 March 2021
to formulate projects for inclusion. These projects were determined and submitted to the
Queensland Reconstruction Authority through the MARS Portal on 1 April 2021. A copy of the
spreadsheet detailing all projects is attached for information.
The total amount of funding requested is $1.7m across 15 projects with Council also providing a
10% contribution in most cases. The exception to this is the Youth Centre (Recovery and
Assembly Centre) where Council’s contribution will be $1.34m which comprises potential funding
from other programs.
As this is a two-stage process, our 15 applications will be reviewed by the QRA and short-listed
applicants will then be asked to provide a detailed application, with all projects required to be
completed by 30 June 2023.
As these projects were required to be submitted prior to the April Council Meeting, it is appropriate
for Council to endorse the lodgement of these projects.
RISK MANAGEMENT
The risk associated with selecting expression of interest projects for funding through the 2020-
2021 Queensland Resilience and Risk Reduction Fund has been assessed as Minor
(Consequence) and Unlikely (Likelihood) giving an overall assessment as Low 4.
Item 13.4 - 15 April 2021 22739ORDINARY COUNCIL MEETING AGENDA Winton Shire Council
It should be noted it is highly unlikely all projects will proceed to the detailed application stage;
however, Council has given itself the best possible opportunity by providing a range of projects for
consideration. This is important as $6m of the funding is earmarked for the 14 affected local
government areas (2019 Monsoon Event).

assessment as Low 4.

the sponsorship should it be agreed to by Council.

SUMMARY
This report summarises the process and assessment of tenders received for the Sealing Works on
the Winton-Richmond Road Project. It is recommended the contract be awarded to Boral
Resources (QLD) Pty Ltd for $454,737.88 (GST Exclusive).
RECOMMENDATION
1. THAT the report be received.
2. THAT Council award Bitumen Sealing Tender WSCQ-2021-24 for the Seal Works on the
Winton / Richmond Road to Boral Resources (QLD) Pty Ltd for $454,737.88 (GST
Exclusive).
REPORT
Council was awarded a section (Ch 100.000 to 104.560 KM and Ch 114.984 to 117. 210 KM) of
Pave and Seal construction on the Winton-Richmond Road. This requires Council crews to prepare
the sub-grade, import spread and compact gravel base to Main Road Standards and seal with a
prime and two coat seal. As council does not have a sealing crew, it is required to put this section
of the works out to contract. The tender that was released does require a suitably qualified
contractor to provide a full-service sealing crew, which is a sprayer, rollers, trucks and cockerels,
loader, bitumen and stone.
In accordance with Council’s Purchasing Policy, a request for quote was sent to Local Buy’s
Prequalified Suppliers via Council’s public electronic tendering portal (Vendor Panel). Tenders
closed on 6 April 2021.
The Request for Quotation and scope of works required tenderers to submit a lump sum price for
the completion of the specified works. At the close of the tender period, a total of 4 (Four)
Quotation submissions had been lodged. All Quotations received were assessed for conformance
with the Conditions of tender and Specification and determined to be conforming except for RPQ
Spray Seal Pty Ltd. The RPQ tender was submitted using wrong documents during uploading in
Item 13.11 - 15 April 2021 22752ORDINARY COUNCIL MEETING AGENDA Winton Shire Council
the Vendor Panel. For this reason, RPQ was excluded for further evaluation. All other submissions
were assessed against the predetermined scoring criteria, according to the level of information and
detail supplied within their submissions, along with any known performance.
A summary of prices for tenders received are presented in the table below:

Boral Resources
(QLD) Pty Ltd Yes 75 25 100 $454,737.88
Matching the respective price and experience of each of the tenderers against the particular
complexities and requirements of the project, the scoring assessment outcome and
recommendation is to accept the tender of Boral Resources (QLD) Pty Ltd. This tender is
considered to offer Council the most cost-effective outcome in delivery of these works, whilst also
ensuring adequate quality and risk control.
The Quotation received from Boral Resources (QLD) Pty Ltd has been assessed as a compliant
and conforming Quotation, and the Tenderer has a demonstrated capacity to properly deliver the
works required for this Contract. The Quotation received from Boral Resources (QLD) Pty Ltd is
the lowest priced tender received and has achieved the highest assessed overall score. It is
considered to offer Council the most advantageous option in the efficient delivery of these works.
There is sufficient budgetary funding available to award this contract and proceed with the works.
Conclusion
Based on the above information and experience dealing with Boral Resources (QLD) Pty Ltd, the
recommendation would be to engage them to complete the sealing works for the Winton /
Richmond Road Project for the tendered sum of $454,737.88 (GST Exclusive).
RISK MANAGEMENT
The risk associated with awarding this contract has been assessed as Minor (Consequence) and
Unlikely (Likelihood) giving an overall assessment as Low 4.

REPORT
On 18 March 2021, Council received an email from RAPAD asking for consideration of a proposal
called "COVID in the Country". This concept was also presented at the 24 February RAPAD Board
meeting where the Board agreed to offer in-principle support. Information about this proposal is
attached.
RAPAD has advised the major development (outlined in the scenario one document) is advice from
the screen industry that this concept would suit traditional broadcasting, greatly reducing the cost
to deliver the concept and instantly connecting to an audience of millions.
RAPAD wishes to draw to Council’s attention the anticipated cost per LGA, for those LGAs wishing
to participate. Council is requested to consider participation in the project and associated costs.
Officers have requested further information and an update from RAPAD regarding the proposal
however at the time the report was prepared this was not yet available.
