Report to the Future Melbourne (Arts, Culture and Heritage) Committee Page 1 of 366 Report to the Future Melbourne (Arts, Culture and Heritage) Agenda item 6.2 Committee Recommendations of Aboriginal Volumes 3, 4 and 5 of the Hoddle Grid 2 April 2019 Heritage Review Presenter: Emma Appleton, Manager Urban Strategy Purpose and background 1. The purpose of this report is to provide the Future Melbourne Committee with three volumes of the Hoddle Grid Heritage Review (The Review) which pertain to Aboriginal Heritage (Volume 3), Aboriginal History (Volume 4) and Pre-Contact Aboriginal Archaeology (Volume 5) (Attachment 2); and to provide management’s recommendations to implement these volumes of the Review. Volumes 1 and 2 of the Review regarding built heritage were considered by Future Melbourne Committee on 21 August 2018. 2. The area which became known as the Hoddle Grid was a place of meeting and ceremony for thousands of years before colonial settlers arrived – a highly significant place for Aboriginal people. In the post contact period the Hoddle Grid was then a place for key interactions between settlers and Aboriginal people. 3. The Review, undertaken by a team of independent expert heritage consultants led by Context, sets a new benchmark for heritage assessment that represents best practice, evidence based assessment and draws on the knowledge of Traditional Owners to gain a better appreciation and understanding of Aboriginal heritage values. 4. The Review was undertaken by engaging closely with the Traditional Owners: the Boon Wurrung, Bunurong and Wurundjeri people, with a specific geographic focus on the Hoddle Grid. An innovative component of this engagement has been a co-research model where Traditional Owners selected places of significance to them and collaborated with heritage consultants to produce place research reports. This model enabled Traditional Owners to draw on and maintain control of information held by community members, as well as to build capability in the preparation of heritage studies. Key issues 5. Aboriginal Heritage (Volume 3) outlines the methodology undertaken to inform research for the Aboriginal volumes of the Review and contains 14 place reports co-researched by the Traditional Owners. The places identified and actions to implement the findings of Volume 3 are summarised in Attachment 3. For each place identified as significant, one or more of the following actions may be relevant: 5.1. Record and interpret places via the City of Melbourne’s Aboriginal Melbourne digital mapping tool currently under development. 5.2. Consult with Aboriginal Victoria about recognition of Aboriginal values on the Victorian Aboriginal Heritage Register (VAHR) – the register of Aboriginal heritage places. 5.3. Consult with Heritage Victoria about recognition of Aboriginal values on the Victorian Heritage Register (VHR) – the register of state significant heritage places - including piloting a change of registration application to better understand the process necessary to amend the VHR. 5.4. Consult with Heritage Victoria about possible amendment to site information recorded on the Victorian Heritage Inventory (VHI) – the inventory of all known historical archaeology sites in Victoria. 6. Aboriginal History (Volume 4) explores the Aboriginal history of Melbourne before and after colonisation using an Aboriginal and shared history thematic framework. It is recommended that this history is published on the City of Melbourne website to communicate the Aboriginal heritage significance of the Hoddle Grid, once final review has been undertaken by all Traditional Owners. 7. Pre-Contact Archaeology (Volume 5) analyses the pre-contact Aboriginal archaeology of the Hoddle Grid incorporating evidence uncovered through archaeological investigations and knowledge of past ground disturbance, resulting in a spatial model that predicts areas of archaeological sensitivity. The recommendations of Volume 5 are to request the submission of voluntary Cultural Heritage Management Plans (CHMPs), to inform permit applicants on the importance of urban Aboriginal archaeology and to continue to update the spatial model to reflect recent archaeological discoveries. 1 Page 2 of 366 Recommendation from management 8. That the Future Melbourne Committee: 8.1. Notes three volumes of the Hoddle Grid Heritage Review which pertain to Aboriginal Heritage (Volume 3), Aboriginal History (Volume 4) and Pre-Contact Archaeology (Volume 5) - Attachment 2. 8.2. Authorises management to progress actions to implement the findings of Aboriginal Heritage (Volume 3) as summarised in Attachment 3 including the following: 8.2.1. Record and interpret the places identified in the Review via the Aboriginal Melbourne digital mapping tool. 8.2.2. Consult with Aboriginal Victoria about recognition of Aboriginal values on the Victorian Aboriginal Heritage Register. 8.2.3. Consult with Heritage Victoria about recognition of Aboriginal values on the Victorian Heritage Register, including piloting a change of registration process. 8.2.4. Consult with Heritage Victoria about possible amendment to site information recorded on the Victorian Heritage Inventory. 8.3. Authorises management to publish the Aboriginal History (Volume 4) on the City of Melbourne website following final review by all Traditional Owners. 8.4. Authorises management to implement the recommendations of the Pre-Contact Archaeology (Volume 5) as set out below: 8.4.1 Request the submission of voluntary Cultural Heritage Management Plans with all development applications deemed high impact as defined by the Aboriginal Heritage Regulations 2018 in areas identified as having archaeological sensitivity within the site predictive model. 8.4.2. Continue to update the site predictive model to recognise additional archaeological evidence regarding the Hoddle Grid. 8.4.3. Develop a brochure that provides information to permit applicants on the importance of managing Aboriginal archaeology in urban environments. Attachments: 1. Supporting Attachment 2. Volumes 3, 4 and 5 of the Hoddle Grid Heritage Review 3. Management’s recommendations to implement recommendations of Volume 3 2 Page 3 of 366 Attachment 1 Agenda item 6.2 Future Melbourne Committee 2 April 2019 Supporting Attachment Legal 1. The Heritage Council of Victoria may amend the VHR under Section 62 of the Heritage Act 2017. 2. The VAHR must record details of all known Aboriginal places in Victoria under Section 145 of the Aboriginal Heritage Act 2006. 3. The VHI site information is not controlled by statute. 4. CHMPs may be prepared under Section 45 of the Aboriginal Heritage Act 2006 even if not required under that Act. Finance 5. Adding/amending places on the VAHR and VHR to reflect Aboriginal values will cost approximately $30,000. This will be covered by the 2019-20 budget, pending Council endorsement. Conflict of interest 6. No member of Council staff, or other person engaged under a contract, involved in advising on or preparing this report has declared a direct or indirect interest in relation to the matter of the report. Health and Safety 7. In developing this proposal, no Occupational Health and Safety issues or opportunities have been identified. Stakeholder consultation 8. All three Traditional Owner groups have been consulted during all stages of development of Volumes 3, 4 and 5 of the Review. It will be necessary for some Traditional Owner groups to provide final review of Volume 4 (Aboriginal History) prior to publishing. Relation to Council policy 9. Recognising the Aboriginal heritage values of the Hoddle Grid aligns with Council policy seeking to conserve and protect places of identified heritage significance, including Council Plan Goals, the Heritage Strategy 2013, and Clauses 21.06 of the Municipal Strategic Statement and 22.04 of the Local Planning Policy Framework. Environmental sustainability 10. The recommendations of this report do not impact on environmental sustainability. 1 Page 4 of 366 HODDLE GRID HERITAGE REVIEW Volume 3: Aboriginal Heritage Final Report March 2019 Prepared for City of Melbourne Page 5 of 366 © Context 2018 [GML Heritage Victoria Pty Ltd, trading as Context.

  • Melbourne-Dreaming-Intro 1.Pdf (Pdf, 1.91
    ABOUT THIS BOOK Melbourne Dreaming is both a guide book and social history of Melbourne, and the events and cultural traditions that have shaped local Aboriginal people’s lives. It aims to show where to look to gain a better understanding of the rich heritage and complex culture of Aboriginal people in Melbourne both before and since colonisation. It was first published in 1997. This is a completely updated and expanded edition. Melbourne Dreaming provides practical information on visiting both historical and contemporary sites located in the city centre, surrounding suburbs and outer areas. Arranged into seven precincts, Melbourne Dreaming takes you to beaches, parklands, camping places, historical sites, exhibitions, cultural displays and buildings. For Melbourne’s Aboriginal people the landscape prior to European settlement over which we travel was the face of the divine — the imprint of the ancestral creation beings that shaped the landscape on their epic journeys. Exploring Melbourne’s Aboriginal places is a way of paying respect to this sacred tradition while learning more about our shared and ancient history. Sites include locations and traces of important places before European settlement in 1835 such as shell middens, scarred trees, wells, fish traps, mounds and quarries. Other sites describe critical events that occurred because of the impact of European settlement. More recent places are the focus of contemporary life. What these places share in common is that each illustrates an important part of the overall story of the first inhabitants, the Kulin. Stories and photographs of some places of interest which have restricted access or cannot be visited have also been included.

    Benevolent Colonizers in Nineteenth-Century Australia Quaker Lives and Ideals Eva Bischoff Cambridge Imperial and Post-Colonial Studies Series Series Editors Richard Drayton Department of History King’s College London London, UK Saul Dubow Magdalene College University of Cambridge Cambridge, UK The Cambridge Imperial and Post-Colonial Studies series is a collection of studies on empires in world history and on the societies and cultures which emerged from colonialism. It includes both transnational, comparative and connective studies, and studies which address where particular regions or nations participate in global phenomena. While in the past the series focused on the British Empire and Commonwealth, in its current incarna- tion there is no imperial system, period of human history or part of the world which lies outside of its compass. While we particularly welcome the first monographs of young researchers, we also seek major studies by more senior scholars, and welcome collections of essays with a strong thematic focus. The series includes work on politics, economics, culture, literature, science, art, medicine, and war. Our aim is to collect the most exciting new scholarship on world history with an imperial theme.

Message from our Chief Executive I am delighted to present Alfred Health’s first Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP): a living and practical plan built around strong relationships, respect and pride in our local Aboriginal community and the potential for employment and business opportunities. This plan is something of a watershed in our relationship with our Aboriginal community. It recognises that we need to do better in providing care for our Aboriginal patients and commits us to a journey to achieve greater equality in healthcare for our first peoples. Already it has been a two-year journey in developing this plan and along the way we have learnt much about what reconciliation means to us and the importance of meaningful and respectful relationships. Thanks must go to the many people involved in creating this plan, particularly to local elder Caroline Briggs, The Boon Wurrung Foundation, and Reconciliation Australia who have supported and guided us through this process. More about our plan The vision for reconciliation is for all Australians to be equal, to have equal opportunities and for there to be trust as we move forward in a shared vision for our country. I sincerely hope that this plan This plan is a summary of and the energy and commitment of our Alfred Health staff will contribute to achieving this vision.
