By way of background, Wangaratta Unlimited is the economic development arm of the Rural City of Wangaratta. In November last year it decided to take a proactive response to the global economic downturn and commenced developing a response strategy. This strategy was finalised in February 2009 and submitted to Council for adoption. The strategy is based on the premise that "now is not the time to be timid". It acknowledges that while the Wangaratta regional economy will not be immune from the affects of the economic downturn, there are measures that can be undertaken to buffer these affects and indeed provide offsets to employment and economic activity in other directions. It is nominated four key directions for doing so: • Direct economic stimulation • Innovation and entrepreneurship • Leadership • Business support I look forward to your consideration of the Wangaratta Unlimited Global Economic Downturn Response Strategy and would be prepared to provide further information should you wish in this regard.

  • 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.

  • Inquiry Into Tackling Climate Change in Victorian Communities
    Committee Manager Legislative Assembly Environment and Planning Committee [email protected] 24 September 2019 Inquiry into Tackling Climate Change in Victorian Communities The Goulburn Broken Greenhouse Alliance (GBGA) is pleased to take this opportunity to submit a response to this inquiry. Please contact the Execuitve Officer of the Alliance, Bronwyn Chapman for any further information at . This submission can be made public and the GBGA requests the opportunity to provide information at a public hearing. GBGA is a formal alliance of the thirteen councils and two Catchment Management Authorities across the Goulburn Broken and North East regions of Victoria, committed to delivering actions to achieve climate change mitigation and adaptation and sharing initiatives that support sustainable, low carbon communities. The GBGA area comprises 30% of the area and 28% of the number of regional-rural municipalities in the state. The member councils are Alpine, Benalla, Campaspe, Indigo, Mansfield, Mitchell, Moira, Murrindindi, Shepparton, Strathbogie, Towong, Wangaratta, and Wodonga, partnering with the Goulburn Broken Catchment Management Authority and the North East Catchment Management Authority. The member councils range from small rural to largely urban and fringe metropolitan councils with population ranges from 8,300 to 63,300. This brings a variety of council and community issues, but climate change impacts are a shared issue for all. Collaboration in the alliance assists all members to keep abreast of developments in mitigation and adaptation, and share their range of experience to initiate larger projects. The shared knowledge and projects of the alliance also gives additional assistance to smaller councils. Smaller council must address the same range of issues as all councils with very limited resources.
