A - February 2014 ii City of Nedlands Municipal Inventory 2012 Introduction 1.0 Introduction What is a Municipal Inventory? A Local Government Inventory, also known as a Municipal Inventory, is a survey of heritage places in a local government area. Heritage Inventories can assist local governments to determine local conservation policies and provide information about local heritage that may be required under a local Town Planning Scheme. Why do we have one? The Heritage of Western Australia Act 1990 requires all local government authorities in Western Australia to compile, and periodically update and review, their Municipal Inventory. The relevant Section (45) of the Heritage of Western Australia Act 1990 states that: 1) A local government shall compile and maintain an inventory of buildings within its district which in its opinion are, or may become, of cultural heritage significance. 2) The inventory required by Subsection (1) shall be compiled no later than 4 years from the commencement of this Act and shall be (a) updated annually; and (b) reviewed every 4 years after compilation. 3) A local government shall provide the [Heritage] Council with a copy of the Inventory compiled pursuant to this section. 4) A local government shall ensure that the inventory required by this section is compiled with proper public consultation. The City of Nedlands responded positively to the Act, and by 1999 had compiled the City of Nedlands Municipal Inventory, which they adopted in 2001. The Inventory was prepared by O’Brien Planning Consultants, in conjunction with the City of Nedlands, and a Community Heritage Working Group. In 2008 an internal review of the Municipal Inventory was carried out by the City’s Heritage Officer, but the review was not adopted by Council, with proposed additional places being added to the Inventory’s Review List only. In 2011, in accordance with the Act, the City of Nedlands appointed heritage consultants Palassis Architects and Dr Robyn Taylor, historian, to work with the City to review and update the Inventory. What is Heritage? The nature of heritage often confuses people, as the word ‘heritage’ has a number of meanings. In the context of the Municipal Inventory heritage can be defined as: Aspects of our past that we value - a site which has played an important part in our history, and buildings or places which are special because of their aesthetic, historic, scientific or social significance – things which we would like future generations to enjoy. Aboriginal Heritage The Municipal Inventory process focuses on events and developments in Western Australian history since the arrival of European settlers. Whilst this study does provide an overview of the culture and way of life of the original inhabitants of what is now the City of Nedlands, it does not attempt to record the legacy of Aboriginal occupation prior to the European settlement of the City. The oversight of the Department of Indigenous Affairs and the application of the Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 ensures that significant aspects of Aboriginal history and culture, relating to the period before European settlement, are recorded and preserved. The MI Review does not include indigenous heritage sites as these are administered under separate legislation and require both specialist archaeological and anthropological skills and cultural sensitivity which may preclude the disclosure of information to the public. A list of places of Indigenous cultural significance is included as Appendix A. Heritage Listings In Australia, places of cultural significance are recognised by entry into lists or registers kept by government and community organisations concerned with the responsible management of this country’s cultural heritage. Lists are maintained by Commonwealth, State and Local Government Authorities, in addition to private organisations FINAL DRAFT Rev. A - February 2014 Palassis Architects 1 City of Nedlands Municipal Inventory 2012 Introduction who have specific interests. These organisations include the National Trust, Art Deco Society, and other specialist organisations. All listings are noted in the Place Record Forms. How do we look after our heritage? The Heritage of Western Australia Act 1990 does not give any further guidance to Local Government Authorities as to the management of heritage places. However the State Heritage Office and the esternW Australian Municipal Association jointly published a Heritage Manual for Local Government in 1998. Local Governments are responsible for reviewing their town planning schemes and formulating their own policies to ensure that their valuable heritage assets are conserved for future generations. The City of Nedlands has a provision within its Town Planning Scheme No. 2, at clause 5.9, which requires that places listed on the Heritage List attached to the Town Planning Scheme (Appendix B) should be conserved and preserved, and that written consent of the Council be obtained before developing these places. Only places on the Heritage List are protected by the Town Planning Scheme, although development applications for places on the Municipal Inventory are subjected to further planning scrutiny relevant to their assigned Management Category. Entry of a property into this Municipal Inventory is recognition of the property’s heritage significance to the community, although it provides no statutory protection. There is also a requirement for the Inventory to be forwarded to the State Heritage Office for public information. What are Management Categories? Management categories recognise the varying degrees of importance and intactness of heritage places. For example, some places are more important to the community than others. Some buildings have been lost over time and only the site remains. Management categories reflect, therefore, the diversity of heritage places. As such, they provide guidance to the City as to the importance of the place and make recommendations for the level of care that should be taken of the place. The current task of reviewing the Inventory includes assigning management categories to the identified heritage places within the City of Nedlands, in accordance with the State Heritage Office’s ‘Criteria for the Assessment of Local Heritage Places and Areas’. The management categories assigned in this Inventory are recommendations only. Category A Worthy of the highest level of protection through provisions of the City of Nedlands’ Town Planning Scheme. Already on the State Register of Heritage Places, or recommended for entry. A Heritage Impact Statement shall be provided before approval is given for any development that will change the external appearance of the building(s)/heritage area. Category B Worthy of a high level of protection. Properties that contribute significantly to the understanding of the history of the area. A Heritage Impact Statement shall be required before approval is granted for development that alters the external appearance of any façade of the building that is visible from the street or from an area used by the public.

  • MP362 Gardiner J P.PDF
    House to House An MP Goes Breathing Space for In all respects the period from the 1910 debate, with all the absurdity that that episode unearthed, right through to the mid-1930s, was one of marking time for Parliament House in Western Australia. Ten governments had come and gone in a twenty-six year period, six of them conservative administrations and four led by Labor premiers with a smooth transition from one Labor Premier to another in 1936. It is true that, at times, there were periods of peace and plenty, and prior to 1914 a variety of economic indices-railway expansion, wheat and flour production and population growth to name some-showed impressive if not spectacular advances for the people of the small state. Yet if economic progress was unspectacular the State and its Parliament were but a short step away from an extraordinary incident in 1915 that was ever a reminder that in a parliamentary democracy human frailty was rarely far from lofty issues of state. The incident came in the form of the downfall and reported disappearance that year of the sitting member for Roebourne, J.P. (Joe) Gardiner, a young Labor MP, union secretary and hotel manager, who had been elected only four years before when he was all of twenty-five. The disappearance was to end Gardiner's personal political career but it was to have even more serious consequences for the Scaddan Labor Government of which he was a part. For within ten months of Gardiner's seat being declared vacant on 30 September 1915 for non­ attendance, Scaddan's government was to fall by vote of the House rather than the vote of the people.

  • The Political Career of Senator Paddy Lynch (1867-1944)
    With an Olive Branch and a Shillelagh: the Political Career of Senator Paddy Lynch (1867-1944) by Danny Cusack M.A. Presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University December 2002 I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not been previously submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. ……..…………………………… Danny Cusack ABSTRACT As a loyal Empire man and ardent conscriptionist, Irish-born Senator Paddy Lynch swam against the prevailing Irish Catholic Labor political current. He was one of those MP’s who followed Prime Minister W.M. Hughes out of the Federal Labor caucus in November 1916, serving out the rest of his political career in the Nationalist ranks. On the face of things, he represents something of a contradiction. A close examination of Lynch’s youth in Ireland, his early years in Australia and his subsequent parliamentary career helps us to resolve this apparent paradox. It also enables us to build up a picture of Lynch the man and to explain his political odyssey. He emerges as representative of that early generation of conservative Laborites (notably J.C. Watson, W.G. Spence and George Pearce) who, once they had achieved their immediate goals of reform, saw their subsequent role as defending the prevailing social order. Like many of these men, Lynch’s commitment to the labour movement’s principles of solidarity and collective endeavour co-existed with a desire for material self-advancement. More fundamentally, when Lynch accumulated property and was eventually able to take up the occupation which he had known in Ireland – farming – his evolving class interest inevitably occasioned a change in political outlook.

HON GEORGE CASH (North Metropolitan) [5.42 pm]: Before question time, I was discussing in part some of the inconsistencies and confusion that have emanated from various media statements made by the government about the Fiona Stanley Hospital at Murdoch over a period of years. In the first example, I referred to a statement made by the then Premier, Dr Geoff Gallop, on 30 January 2005 in which he referred to plans to build a 1 000-bed hospital in the suburb of Murdoch adjacent to St John of God Hospital. He indicated that an amount of $420 million had been allocated to that cause and that the hospital was expected to be opened in 2007. Nine months later, on 21 September 2005, a media statement appeared from the Minister for Health, Hon Jim McGinty, MLA, in which the concept of the Fiona Stanley Hospital had been changed from a 1 000-bed hospital that was to open in 2007 to the Gallop government allocating $742 million to build the Fiona Stanley Hospital. He said that the Fiona Stanley Hospital was due to open in 2011 and, more than that, that it was to have 610 beds by 2011 and 1 058 beds by 2015. I cannot possibly understand how a hospital can change from a 1 000-bed hospital due to open in 2007, as announced by Premier Gallop in January 2005, to a 610-bed hospital due to open in 2011 and a 1 058-bed hospital by 2015.

At a time when the Premier of Western Australia Sir John Forrest had begun to doubt the wisdom of his resource rich but under-developed colony joining the emerging Commonwealth, Kirwan conspired with Perth Federalists, Walter James and George Leake, to force Forrest’s hand. Editor and part- owner of the influential Kalgoorlie Miner, the ‘pocket-handkerchief’ newspaper he had transformed into one of the most powerful journals in the colony, he waged a virulent press campaign against the besieged Premier, mocking and belittling him at every turn and encouraging his east coast colleagues to follow suit.
