  • Submission to the Royal Commission Into Family Violence April 2015
    SUBM.0118.001.0001 SUBMISSION TO THE ROYAL COMMISSION INTO FAMILY VIOLENCE APRIL 2015 Submitted by Benalla Rural City Council SUBM.0118.001.0002 INTRODUCTION The Benalla Rural City Council congratulates the State Government on its establishment of the Royal Commission into Family Violence and wishes it every success in its investigation into this despicable crime. A key strategic objective of the Council is: “Our community is safe, inclusive and accessible, and individuals, families and communities can move about and enjoy their lives in comfort and safety. Our physical and social environments are carefully managed to reduce risk with a specific focus on reducing family violence.” To achieve this objective the Council is a member of the Benalla Family Violence Prevention Network; a collection of community members and 20 agencies that provide health, welfare and community services across the Benalla Rural City. The BFVPN has undertaken a range of initiatives in which the Council has actively participated, including the: . annual White Ribbon Day – Benalla March Against Violence . Benalla White Ribbon Day Supporters program . “Take a Stand” anti-family violence campaign. As a community leader, the Council brings to the Royal Commissions attention three key issues that could make a real difference locally to combating family violence. BACKGROUND Population 13,597 (2015) Area 235,225 hectares Benalla, Baddaginnie, Devenish, Goorambat, Swanpool, Townships Thoona, Tatong, Winton Location 193 kms north east of Melbourne (an easy 2 hour drive) .

  • 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.
