  • Great South Coast
    Great South Coast Infrastructure Victoria is investigating infrastructure investment in regional Victoria that builds on the economic strengths of a region, or that reduces disadvantage, primarily through providing greater access to services and economic opportunities. This fact sheet is focussed on reducing disadvantage, and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying framework for reducing disadvantage through infrastructure. The purpose of this fact sheet is to provide evidence that will inform the problem definition for each of Victoria’s nine regions through consultation with stakeholders. The project has a specific focus on areas that experience relatively high levels of disadvantage (ranked in the bottom 30% of the index of Socio-Economic Disadvantage, SEIFA) and this fact sheet provides indicators showing poor outcomes for key demographic groups living in these areas. Infrastructure Victoria invites key stakeholders and service providers to make submissions that provide evidence on which infrastructure could make a difference in reducing disadvantage for the region.

  • 21.05 Settlement and Housing Overview the Moyne
    LOCAL PROVISION MOYNE PLANNING SCHEME 21.05 Settlement and housing Overview The Moyne Shire is made up of large tracts of rural areas and a number of towns and settlements. The predominant service centres in the Moyne Shire are Port Fairy, Koroit and Mortlake. Port Fairy is an historic coastal town that offers a high quality of life for its residents and is a popular tourist destination. Koroit is located near Tower Hill State Game Reserve and was originally established as a rural service town in which a major diary processing plant operated by Murray Goulburn is located on the edge of the urban area of the town. Mortlake is the main town and service centre in the northern part of the municipality. Apart from its service function, it is also home to industries including the Clarke’s Pies manufacturing base, a major council service centre and a regional quarry. Hawkesdale, Peterborough, Macarthur and other small service towns located throughout the Shire also provide a focus for much of the population. There are also a number of smaller settlements or rural hamlets including Caramut, Woolsthorpe. Woorndoo, Panmure, Garvoc, Kirkstall, Killarney, Cudgee, Nullawarre, Purnim, Yambuk, Orford and Framlingham. The historical townships and rural hamlets within the Shire give it a distinctive character. Population Characteristics As noted in 21.02 the Shire’s overall population has undergone gradual decline since 1981. This is reflected by the 1981, 1986, 1991 and 1996 Census which recorded permanent populations of 16,806, 16038, 16142 and 15,894 respectively for the area now encompassed by the Shire.
