Alternatives to Amalgamation in Australian Local Government: the Case of Walkerville by Brian Dollery and Joel Byrnes No. 2005-4
University of New England School of Economics Alternatives to Amalgamation in Australian Local Government: The Case of Walkerville by Brian Dollery and Joel Byrnes No. 2005-4 Working Paper Series in Economics ISSN 1442 2980 http://www.une.edu.au/febl/EconStud/wps.htm Copyright © 2005 by UNE.

ISBN 1 86389 9502 Alternatives to Amalgamation in Australian Local Government: The Case of Walkerville∗ Brian Dollery and Joel Byrnes∗∗ Abstract Structural reform chiefly through of council amalgamation has long been the most favoured means of enhancing municipal efficiency by Australian state government policy makers. However, the disappointing results of most amalgamation programs have led to a growing scepticism in the local government community and a search for alternative methods of improving council efficiency. Not only have scholars designed generic models suitable for Australian conditions, but individual councils and groups of councils around the country have also developed several de facto alternatives to amalgamation. An embryonic body of research has now begun to examine the efficacy of these alternative organizational arrangements. The present paper seeks to augment this nascent literature evaluating the outcomes achieved by Walkerville; an Adelaide suburban council that escaped the South Australian merger program completed in 1998. Key Words: Amalgamation; Regional Co-operative Agreement (RCA); Walkerville ∗ The authors would like to thank the Town of Walkerville Mayor John Rich and senior management for their kind assistance and co-operation in bringing this paper to fruition. -
Community Partnerships and Collaboration - Finalists
COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS AND COLLABORATION - FINALISTS Award Finalists COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS AND COLLABORATION THANKS TO City of Charles Sturt - Open Space, Recreation & Property Team - St Clair Recreation Centre The three year, $28 million jointly funded infrastructure project to rebuild the St Clair Recreation Centre was a collaboration between the Minister for Education, the Department for Planning Transport and Infrastructure and the City of Charles Sturt. The result is a facility for tomorrow - catering for the indoor sporting needs of the western suburbs communities. The involvement of stakeholders and community clubs in the project was significant and the development of relationships fundamental to its success. Strengthening the long term sustainability of recreational facilities in the western region, St Clair Recreation Centre is accessible to the Woodville High School and enabled the amalgamation and relocation of three sporting groups. The project was supported by the State’s 30 Year Plan, the Western Region’s Western Adelaide Sporting Facilities Supply and Demand Study and the City of Charles Sturt Community and Corporate Plan. Collaboration with Government and alignment to key strategic directions enabled the development of significant infrastructure associated with the Centre, which services the western region and some 200,000 residents, through the provision of a six court stadium including roller skating, gymnasium, regional immunisation clinic and sustainable building design.

Despite this, many of our urban environments are not conducive to walking or cycling. Getting around the City of Playford on foot or bike can be a challenge. Like many parts of Australia, the City of Playford has been planned and designed predominantly for motor vehicle transport. The car-dominant environment and focus on infrastructure and budgets supporting this mode of transport makes the simple task of getting from place to place difficult for those who do not have a car, or who wish to travel by other modes. -
British Migrants in Post-War South Australia: Expectations and Lived Experiences
BRITISH MIGRANTS IN POST-WAR SOUTH AUSTRALIA: EXPECTATIONS AND LIVED EXPERIENCES Justin Anthony Madden Department of History, School of Humanities, Faculty of Arts December 2015 A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy Table of Contents Abstract 1 Thesis Declaration 3 Acknowledgements 4 List of Abbreviations 5 Introduction 6 Methodology 10 Chapter One: Background to Twentieth Century Australian Immigration and Literature Review 18 Chapter Two: Encouraging Migration Through Publicity: The Australian Campaign to Attract British Migrants 39 Chapter Three: Post-war British Environments and their Effect on Expectations 69 Chapter Four: Reception Country Environments 87 Conclusion 117 Bibliography 123 Abstract The expectations and experiences of British migrants in South Australia between 1945 and 1982 were highly varied and in some ways have been misunderstood both by scholars and the general public. This thesis uses previously unexamined archival sources as well as new interviews conducted with British migrants to analyse the key factors that influenced migrants’ expectations of Australia and experiences in South Australia. Chapter one traces the history of immigration to the Australian continent from the start of the twentieth century until the post-war period. It examines the existing literature on the subject of British migrants’ expectations and identifies important factors for understanding migrants’ experiences in South Australia. It summarises existing scholarly literature which has commonly associated negative British migrant experiences with misleading publicity distributed by Australian governments in Britain but notes that this perception has not been subject to sufficient analysis. Chapter two documents the aim of Australia’s post-war governments—and specifically the Commonwealth Department of Immigration—to provide British migrants with accurate information about Australia. -
