PROPOSED RAINBOW BALL
Beverly Moss spoke on the item. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY At the Ordinary meeting of Council on 23 June 2014, Council resolved the following: “That Council give consideration to establishing an annual event at the Centre Ivanhoe as part of support of the Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Intersex (LGBTI) community. The function would be an annual ‘Rainbow Event’. Officers have engaged the LGBTI community to determine their support for this type of event, considered possible sponsorship and fundraising options, and have also consider how to best manage an annual event giving consideration to staff resources. In celebration of International Day Against Homophobia (IDAHO) day, this year Council raised the Rainbow Flag and held a morning tea in the foyer of The Centre Ivanhoe and celebrations with a cocktail event in the evening. These events were well attended and received positive feedback. The possibility of Banyule hosting a ‘Rainbow Event’ was discussed with the LGBTI Advisory Committee. The LGBTI Advisory Committee recommended that Council continue to host LGBTI awareness events to provide an opportunity for the Banyule LGBTI community and the wider community to celebrate at a local level. The Committee also recommended Council host a similar event to the 2014 IDAHO Day in 2015. The Committee also recommended consideration of a joint forum with Moreland and Darebin around LGBTI inclusion such as the ‘fairgo sports forum’ that was held in 2012. This report explores the resources required to deliver a regional ‘Rainbow Event’ and a local event similar to the 2014 IDAHO day. A larger scale ‘Rainbow Event’ in the Great Hall would require increased resources from Council. Potential sponsorship may decrease the cost of the event however Council would need to underwrite the event and additional staff resources would be required. Given the LGBTI Advisory Committee objectives were met with the celebration of 2014 IDAHO day, officers are recommending Council continue to provide an ongoing financial commitment to host LGBTI awareness events to a similar level as previous events. Resolution (CO2015/5) That Council: 1.
