Aged Care Plan 2012 July, 2012 Shire of Boddington Adopted 19th February 2013 Verso Consulting Pty Ltd Mail Verso Consulting PO Box 412 CLIFTON HILL VIC 3068 Telephone +61 3 9489 3233 Facsimile +61 3 9489 3244 Email [email protected] Website www.verso.com.au While Verso Consulting Pty Ltd endeavours to provide reliable analysis and believes the material it presents is accurate, it will not be liable for any claim by any party acting on such information. © Verso Consulting Pty Ltd verso is a registered Australian Trade Mark (Registration No 1142831) verso consulting pty ltd ii Executive summary Background In rural WA many Shires report that older persons are being forced to move from their local communities or are possibly refusing appropriate services for fear of being ‘removed’ from their local community and ‘put into a home’. This, in some instances, means that older persons and their family carers move from Boddington with a loss of social capital within the local community resulting in negative economic impacts into the long term. For over ten years, the Boddington community and the Shire Council have sought to address the needs of older persons in the community. Steps taken have included exploring the option for a large scale residential development; this was curtailed when it became evident that a development of this scale would not be feasable. Through a process of research and consultation, it became clear that the concept of a smaller scale village of ILUs would be sustainable and therefore this model has been explored. The Shire prepared a Positive Ageing Strategy in 2006 that further emphasised the need for more affordable housing for older people, in close proximity to health services and community facilities.

The reasons being; Insufficient value when addressing a cost benefit analysis of standard / traditional CCTV cameras. Minimal return on significant investment. High ongoing maintenance costs. Limited potential for criminal evidence value. Higher City and Police resourcing costs to manage, obtain footage and check/maintain system. Vast majority of movement is vehicular. Preliminary Review: The City agrees with the consultant that the placement of traditional CCTV within Wattle Grove Cell 9 is not a cost effective or viable solution to reduce crime within the area, and therefore recommends that it is not considered.

2015 Local Government Ordinary Elections Report
2015 Local Government Ordinary Elections Election Report April 2016 W ESTERN AUSTRALIAN Electoral Commission Foreword At the October 2015 local government ordinary elections, the Western Australian Electoral Commission was contracted to manage the largest number of postal elections it had ever conducted. In addition to six in person elections, the Commission was asked to run 82 postal elections under the Local Government Act 1995. With voting in local government elections being non-compulsory in Western Australia, postal elections typically result in a higher participation rate by eligible electors than in person ballots, as they offer most electors greater convenience and accessibility. Making the Electoral Commissioner responsible for these elections also enables local government CEOs and staff to remain at arms-length from potentially contentious aspects of the electoral process. Since they were first trialled in 1995, the number of local governments adopting postal elections has progressively increased. The local governments deciding to conduct a postal election in 2015 comprised some 1,433,575 electors, which is about 98% of the State’s total number of eligible electors. At the close of nominations, 964 candidates had nominated for 419 vacancies resulting in 75 separate postal elections. The highest participation rate for postal elections, both for country and metropolitan local governments in 2015 was the Shire of Mt Marshall with 82.7% and the City of Perth with 37.8%, with an overall Statewide participation rate of 27.5%. I would like to acknowledge the efforts of all returning officers and Commission staff in the planning and conduct of the 2015 ordinary elections and each of the local governments for the assistance and cooperation provided by their staff.
