In preparing this report, I have relied upon the facts, matters and assumptions detailed in Appendix A. 2 Qualifications and Experience Appendix A contains a statement setting out my qualifications and experience, and the other matters raised by “Planning Panels Victoria – Planning Panels – Expert Evidence”. Appendix B contains my CV. 3 Summary of Opinions Having perused relevant documents and plans and undertaken traffic engineering assessments, I am of the opinion that: a) development of the Bennett property in isolation and in the absence of a PSP would require a single local access street connection to Verney Road (likely to the north of Pine Road so as to avoid a cross-intersection), b) “Access C” to Grahamvale Road should be shifted south adjacent to Grahamvale Primary School, consistent with the earlier 2010/2011 development plan, c) subject to b) above (or retaining Access C in its current location shown in the July 2018 PSP), RD- 01 and RD-02 will be level 1 connector streets carrying less than 6,000 vpd and requiring a 24m reservation, d) the DCP should fund the difference between a 7.3m carriageway and an 11.6m carriageway for all connector streets and should fund the purchase of 8m of land to increase the cross-section from a 16m local access street reservation to a 24m level 1 connector reservation, e) RD-02 should be realigned to provide a straighter alignment, including a straighter cross- intersection at Verney Road/Pine Road, f) item e) will require some land take from Parcel 16 for the intersection and this can occur (via DCP and a PAO to ensure timely delivery of the intersection) without impacting on the existing dwelling, g) having regard to the locality and key traffic generators, VicRoads’ proposed connection to the PSP from the Grahamvale Road/Ford Road intersection is not necessary for the precinct but Access C (preferably in a more southerly location than shown on the PSP) is necessary, h) in the absence of Access C (regardless of the proposed connection to the PSP from the Grahamvale Road/Ford Road intersection), traffic volumes on Access D (IN-02 – Verney Road/Pine Road) will G25445R-01A.docx Page 1 Amendment C118 to the Greater Shepparton Planning Scheme Shepparton North East Growth Corridor (Bennetts Property) exceed 6,000 vpd and will require trunk collector construction (30m reservation, with 14m reimbursed by the DCP), i) in the absence of Access C (regardless of the proposed connection to the PSP from the Grahamvale Road/Ford Road intersection), SIDRA assessments indicate that there is insufficient capacity at IN- 02 and revised assessments and a re-design will be necessary, likely requiring additional land for north-south stand-up lanes on Verney Road, j) frontage roads to the southern boundary of the PSP are unnecessary, k) if frontage roads are to be provided adjacent to Verney Road, Ford Road and Grahamvale Road, they would be one-sided (in terms of services, footpath and parking requirements, etc.) and need only be 12m wide, l) the PSP does not need to be prescriptive about the provision of frontage roads and should allow development to provide either a frontage road or landscape strip, m) frontage roads to the non-government school (Shepparton Christian College) are unnecessary, provide no meaningful service to the school, give a poor design outcome for the development of the Bennett land and should be removed, and n) the above-mentioned items require resolution prior to incorporating the PSP and DCP into the Greater Shepparton Planning Scheme. 4 Background The Victorian Planning Authority (VPA), in consultation with Greater Shepparton City Council and Government agencies, is preparing the Shepparton North East Precinct Structure Plan (PSP) to guide new urban development in Shepparton. Precinct Structure Plan (PSP) and Development Contribution Plan (DCP) documents dated February 2018 were subject to community engagement and public exhibition from 8th March 2018 to Friday 13th April 2013. A number of background documents were also exhibited for public comment, including a Traffic Impact Assessment Report prepared by Trafficworks (Ref: 113040) dated 22nd August 20141. At the conclusion of the exhibition period, further investigations were undertaken and updated draft PSP and DCP documents were prepared, dated July 2018. An addendum to the Traffic Impact Assessment Report was also prepared by Trafficworks (Ref: 170769) dated 13th July 2018. 1 The traffic engineering background studies on the VPA website (https://vpa.vic.gov.au/project/shepparton-north-east/) include a Traffic Impact Assessment Report (Maunsell Australia Pty Ltd, November 2008), a Traffic Impact Assessment Report (AECOM Pty Ltd, December 2009) and a TIAR Traffix Group Peer Review (March 2011) in addition to the Trafficworks report. Notably, my firm was retained in 2010/2011 by Greater Shepparton City Council to peer review the traffic recommendations of the Shepparton North East Growth Corridor PSP, including reviewing the recommendations of the AECOM traffic report and PSP (February 2010 version) in relation to Verney Road, assessing the proposed roads against the IDM and make recommendations for any amendments to the PSP. The PSP considered at that time (including the road layout) differs from the current proposal. G25445R-01A.docx Page 2 Amendment C118 to the Greater Shepparton Planning Scheme

  • SCG Victorian Councils Post Amalgamation
    Analysis of Victorian Councils Post Amalgamation September 2019 spence-consulting.com Spence Consulting 2 Analysis of Victorian Councils Post Amalgamation Analysis by Gavin Mahoney, September 2019 It’s been over 20 years since the historic Victorian Council amalgamations that saw the sacking of 1600 elected Councillors, the elimination of 210 Councils and the creation of 78 new Councils through an amalgamation process with each new entity being governed by State appointed Commissioners. The Borough of Queenscliffe went through the process unchanged and the Rural City of Benalla and the Shire of Mansfield after initially being amalgamated into the Shire of Delatite came into existence in 2002. A new City of Sunbury was proposed to be created from part of the City of Hume after the 2016 Council elections, but this was abandoned by the Victorian Government in October 2015. The amalgamation process and in particular the sacking of a democratically elected Council was referred to by some as revolutionary whilst regarded as a massacre by others. On the sacking of the Melbourne City Council, Cr Tim Costello, Mayor of St Kilda in 1993 said “ I personally think it’s a drastic and savage thing to sack a democratically elected Council. Before any such move is undertaken, there should be questions asked of what the real point of sacking them is”. Whilst Cr Liana Thompson Mayor of Port Melbourne at the time logically observed that “As an immutable principle, local government should be democratic like other forms of government and, therefore the State Government should not be able to dismiss any local Council without a ratepayers’ referendum.

Thest; were published in the report entitled Reforming Victoria's Water Industry: a Competitive Future - Water. In that report the Government stated its intention to form three "health and_environment" related working groups, namely • rural drinking water quality; • effluent standards; and • litter in waterways. These working groups were subsequently formed and this report summarises the findings of the working group on rural drinking water quality. A more detailed report containing all of the monitoring results for the individual supplies is being prepared for wide public distribution. While this summary report shows that many supplies still fail to meet the guidelines for bacteriological quality, there does not appear to be any great groundswell of public opinion demanding better bacteriological quality. This is not surprising when one considers that bacteriological contamination is invisible, without any tell-tale smell or taste. Unless the water is tested and the results are published, people have no way of telling if the water they are· receiving is safe to drink. The information in this report, therefore, should provide .a useful benchmark for measuring the performance of water authorities in the critically important area of drinking water quality.
