I Dear Mr. Minister, Re: CITY OF SALE I REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF CITY BOUNDARIES I The Council of the City of Sale hereby makes application for the extension of its municipal area by the annexation of portions of the surrounding Shires of Avon and Rosedale pursuant to Sec. 23 (I) (b) of the Local Government Act. The boundaries of these areas are described in the I attachment. The area requested for addition to the City has been determined as a result of an assessment of future growth and is not an attempt to only annexe an area already receiving the overspill of development. It is an are·a large enough to control all growth requirements for up to I 20 years at present rates of growth and as such is an alternative to more frequent requests for small-scale addltions to the City which usually characterise requests of this type. The request is based on the understanding of the immedi·ate and future development demands of a rapidly growing City. In our view, I it respects the existing rights of the surrounding Shires, but questions the effectiveness of dual control of a . contiguous urban area centred on one functional centre. It also maintains the need for the pre-planning of areas destined to become the future urban components of the city and for a buffer strip adjacent to its urban boundaries. Piecemeal and localised extensions to cope with problems after they exist is not considered a viable base for administrative continuity, nor is it proper to impose on adjacent Shires, the development and servicing I obligations for land ultimately to be sought for armexation by another Local Government Authority. - · The enclosed submission sets out the evidence gathered to illustrate the rapid growth of the various functional components of the City of I Sale and the projections made of area requirements for immediate and future development. · A thorough analysis of the surrounding land sought to be annexed has revealed. its suitabiliy and availability for various forms of urban development and has enabled an accurate assessment of the future shape and extent of the City. I The details of Council's request for annexation have been imparted· to the surrounding Shires affected and they are fully informed of Council's intentions. I Council would welcome the opportunity to present its request 1n detail and would be pleased to provide any further information. I By Order of the Council of the City of Sale the Common Seal of which was affixed . this day of 1.972. I I Mayor I Town Clerk I ............ _... 1 I DESCRIPTION OF AREAS PROPOSED FOR ANNEXATION TO THE CITY OF SALE I I I I I I (I) All that part of the Shire of Avon m the Parish of Sale as follows: I Commencing at a point on the western boundary of Crown Allotment I OS, Section I at the State Rivers and Water Supply channel I ·easement; thence generally easterly by that easement and channel reserve to the eastern boundary of Crown Allotment 132, Section I; thence southerly and easterly by the government roads forming the eastern bounda~y of that allotment and Crown Allotment 131, Section I and the northern boundary of Crown Allotment IS3, Section I; thence southerly by the eastern boundary of that allotment I and Crown Allotments 172, Section I; I, 2, 4, S, 6, 7 and 8, Section A, the western boundary of Crown Allotment 14, Section A and a line to the eastern angle of Crown Allotment IK, Section A; thence by the south-eastern boundary of that allotment and the eastern boundaries of Crown Allotments ID, IC and IE, Section A and a line to Flooding Creek being the present city boundary; thence I generally westerly, northerly and westerly by the city boundary to the point of commencement.

The primary purpose of conducting reviews of this nature is to provide an overview as to whether public funds in programs selected for examination, are being spent in an economic and efficient manner consistent with government policies and objectives. Constructive suggestions are also provided in line with the ongoing process of modifying and improving financial management and accountability controls within the public sector. I am pleased to advise that this review has already proven to be of benefit to the government departments involved, as evidenced by their positive replies detailing initiatives already undertaken or evolving. I am also hopeful that this report will assist in resolving other issues, including the development of a policy on the use and management of public buildings. The co-operation and assistance received by my staff from the departments during the course of the review was appreciated. It is my view that there is a growing awareness by government agencies of the advantages to be gained from such reviews, particularly the provision of independent advice on areas of concern.

  • 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.
