  • 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.

  • Appendix E: Case Studies E Adoption Guidelines for Stormwater Biofiltration Systems Appendix E – Case Studies | 2
    Adoption Guidelines for Stormwater Biofiltration Systems Appendix E: Case studies E Adoption Guidelines for Stormwater Biofiltration Systems Appendix E – Case studies | 2 Monash University stormwater harvesting system This project was undertaken by FAWB and Monash University’s Water Conservation Committee to capture and treat stormwater runoff from a multi-level carpark (4500 2m ) on the Clayton campus of Monash University. The treated water is then used to irrigate an adjacent sports ground and there is an existing ornamental pond to store the treated water. The system is small relative to its catchment area and as a result overflow occurs frequently. This is not particularly problematic for harvesting (because the water is always pre-treated in two sedimentation tanks, where heavy metal concentrations are reduced, and high nutrient levels are not detrimental for this irrigation application) and, since overflows discharge to the storage pond, load reductions will still be achieved, provided overflow from the pond to the conventional stormwater drainage system is minimised. This can be achieved by keeping the pond slightly drawn down. The system has the following elements: • Surface area 45 m2, ponding depth 25 cm and filter depth of 70 cm. • 50 cm loamy sand above a 10 cm transition and 10 cm drainage layer Fully lined to prevent exfiltration • Densely planted with indigenous plants to a.) maximise the volume of treated water (plants help to maintain infiltration capacity) and b.) maximise pollutant removal. The system is currently being renewed with new media compositions, different plant species selection and layout. ©2015 – CRC for Water Sensitive Cities www.watersensitivecities.org.au | [email protected] Adoption Guidelines for Stormwater Biofiltration Systems Appendix E – Case studies | 3 Little Stringybark Creek biofiltration project This project was undertaken as part of a large-scale catchment retrofit project to restore the Little Stringybark Creek by reducing the impacts from stormwater runoff.
