Council Agenda - Kangaroo Island Council - SA.Gov.au

This event is ineligible to receive sponsorship from the Council Sponsorship program for two
reasons:
1. Commercial entities and events are unable to receive sponsorship;
2. Sponsorship program does not provide cash to recipients, only in-kind services and
materials.
Council has not provided for such requests in the 2013-14 Annual Business Plan, so if positive
consideration is resolved, Council would need to provide direction regarding funding of this
request.
Governance Considerations
(relates to consistent management, cohesive policies, guidance, processes and decision-rights for a given area of
responsibility)
Sponsorship policy excludes this request, as detailed in report.
Risk Management Considerations
(identification, assessment, and prioritization of risks (defined as the effect of uncertainty on objectives, whether
positive or negative) followed by coordinated and economical application of resources to minimize, monitor, and
control the probability and/or impact of unfortunate events or to maximize the realization of opportunities)
Failure to adhere to Sponsorship procedures at this time puts Council at risk of receiving many
requests for financial sponsorship for which it is financially unable to provide for.
Economic Considerations
(Assessment of likely financial implications of pursuing a course of action)
No funds have been budgeted in 2013/14 for such activities.
Social Considerations
(Assessment of likely impacts with the Community)
All major events bring social outcomes to Kangaroo Island and where possible these events
must be supported so that the benefits continue to be realised. As part of the Sponsorship
Program there is the opportunity for community groups to work with the Kangaroo Island
Feastival organisers, and still receive sponsorship from Council. We know that community
groups add significant value to Council contributions and that the benefits of these contributions
are returned directly to the community, often doubled or tripled.
Environmental Considerations
(Assessment of likely impacts on the environment)
