Wingecarribee Local Government Area Final Report 2015 09 Rating and Taxing Valuation Procedures Manual v6.6.2 Wingecarribee Local Government Area Final Report 2015 09 November 2015 Rating and Taxing Valuation Procedures Manual v6.6.2 Page 1 Rating and Taxing Valuation Procedures Manual v6.6.2 Executive Summary LGA Overview Wingecarribee Local Government Area Wingecarribee Shire is located 75 kilometres from the south western fringe of Sydney and 110 kilometres from Sydney central business district. The Shire lies within the Sydney – Canberra – Melbourne transport corridor on the Southern rail line and Hume Highway. The M5 motorway provides rapid access to Campbelltown, Liverpool and other key metropolitan centres within Sydney. Wingecarribee is also referred to as the Southern Highlands due to its position on a spur of the Great Dividing Range some 640 to 800 metres above sea level. Wingecarribee Shire is predominantly rural in character with agricultural lands separating towns and villages characterised by unique landscape and aesthetic appeal. Development pressures are significant and include subdivision for residential and lifestyle purposes, infrastructure, industry and agriculture. The Southern Highlands forms part of Gundungurra tribal lands and preservation of Aboriginal heritage is significant. European settlement dates back to the early 1800s with first contact between Aboriginal people and Europeans occurring in 1798. Settlement followed in 1821 at Bong Bong. The Shire is rich in biodiversity with large areas of high conservation value including part of the World Heritage Greater Blue Mountains area and two declared wilderness areas. Environmental features include cold climatic conditions, rugged topography and significant areas of state forest, national park and other protected lands that form part of the Sydney water catchment area. Eastern parts of the Shire are bounded by the Illawarra escarpment and Morton National Park. The north abuts Nepean and Avon dam catchments and is rugged eucalypt bushland. In the west, the Wollondilly and Wingecarribee rivers flow through deep sandstone valleys which form part of the Warragamba dam catchment. Southern reaches of the Shire are bounded by Uringalla Creek and comprise sandstone plateau dissected by deep gorges.

The local electorate are opposed to mining under rivers, coal seam gas extraction and their associated impacts. The council aims for a wealth of native flora and fauna, healthy waterways, protected rural character and environmental heritage, working sustainable farms, well designed towns and villages, invigorated main streets, green space and recreational networks, integrated transport network and an integrated community The Australian Federal Government (2007) has produced a guide “Climate Change Adaptation Actions for Local Government” and includes actions such as strengthening profiles of climate change within local government, and combine the sustainability agenda, raise community awareness, establish communication channels, improve public sector capabilities through capacity building activities for local government staff, completing climate change risk assessments, and many more.

The framework has been designed to accommodate developments that are considered to have wide reaching benefits for the community. The Wingecarribee Shire Council also released a “Sustainability & Design Criteria” strategy in May 2008 to help guide the sustainable development of the region. All new development applications made since the inception of the strategy must address the core objectives of document. The strategy outlines the following key criteria; Infrastructure Provisions Diversification of Housing and lot sizes. Urban Design. Environmental Protection. Natural Hazards. Natural Resources.

  • Reliving the Horrors of the Ivan Milat Case
    Reliving the horrors of the Ivan Milat case John Thompson | ABC, The Drum | Updated 31st August, 2010 "Police are investigating the discovery of human remains found in the Belanglo State Forest". Seven times I said those words as a former police reporter. Twice I broke the news to the world that another body had been discovered. But that was the second half of 1993. This week's news of one more discovery has brought the horror of the backpacker serial killings back to the present. I remember driving into the Belanglo State Forest for the first time. I nearly missed the turn- off. There's only a small sign on the right side of the Hume Highway, heading south from Sydney just past Mittagong. It's a rough dirt track that goes past a homestead. I remember trying to imagine what it must have been like to have been one of the backpackers: Deborah Everist, James Gibson, Simone Schmidl, Anja Habschied, Gabor Neugebauer, Joanne Walters and Caroline Clarke. The sheer terror each of them must have felt when this seemingly pleasant man with small eyes and a beard, who had offered them a lift, suddenly turned off the highway, pulled out a gun and drove into bush far far away from civilisation and any possible help. Knowing that this track, this bush, were some of the last images each of the young backpackers saw gave me more than a slight chill - to this day it still makes me feel sick. What gives someone the compulsion to kill like this? And to do it over and over again? How do they live with themselves? The man who knows most about Ivan Milat and what he did to each of his seven victims is cautioning the public not to draw too many links with the weekend discovery by trail bike riders.

His murderous spree took place over a number of years in the early 1990s. While the film does show something of how Milat is thought to have operated and managed to escape detection for some years, the program is more concerned with the police enquiry (catching Milat); how the investigat- ing team were able to link his movements and behaviour to the murders through a meticulous process of gathering INTRODUCTION evidence and following up earlier leads. Catching Milat is a two-part drama based on the events surrounding the investigation that led to the arrest and conviction of serial killer Ivan Milat. Most characters play the roles of actual people, but certain events and charac- ters have been created or changed for dramatic effect. Incorporating stylised flashbacks and archival footage, Catching Milat is a television mini-series that returns viewers to a time when backpacking was a rite-of-pas- sage for young people eager to explore the world. Ivan Milat was arrested in 1994. Catching Milat is the story of the men who brought him to justice.

  • Belanglo State Forest
    Belanglo State Forest Lucien Alperstein Do we all have the same pasts? If not, do we all exist in the same present? The Belanglo State Forest is a non-native pine plantation surrounded by natural forest. It lies an hour and a half south of Sydney, just west-southwest of Bowral. The first introduced trees, radiata pines, were planted in 1919 (Primary Industries, 2012). I feel it’s common knowledge but just in case you weren’t aware, Ivan Milat is serving seven life sentences and another 18 years after being found guilty of killing seven hitchhikers and dumping their bodies in the Belanglo State Forest (Kennedy and Whittaker, 2001). Belanglo is synonymous with Milat and with misadventure at large. But beyond that dominant reading, Belanglo is a sensual portal back home for Polish and other Eastern European migrants in autumn and yet another stain on our European-Australian flag. 1. Dumping Ground. Belanglo State Forest is where people go to hide the bodies of hitchhikers they kill. Ask anyone. Tell someone you’re hitchhiking and they’ll say you’ll end up at Belanglo. Ron Fry picked me up just past seven in the morning, driving a white ute and wearing an orange hi-vis jacket. “Jesus, Ron!” said a voice over mobile phone loudspeaker. Ron had opened the door to the car and announced that he had just stopped for a hitchhiker. “He’s going to kill you.” “Not I’m not,” I replied. The three of us laughed, and my total physical contact with Ron amounted to one handshake at our meeting and one again at our parting.

Reason for conservation assessment by the Threatened Species Scientific Committee This advice follows assessment of information provided by New South Wales as part of the Common Assessment Method process, to systematically review species that are inconsistently listed under the EPBC Act and relevant state/territory legislation or lists. More information on the Common Assessment Method is available at: http://www.environment.gov.au/biodiversity/threatened/cam The information in this assessment has been compiled by the relevant state/territory government. In adopting this assessment under the EPBC Act, this document forms the Approved Conservation Advice for this species as required under s266B of the EPBC Act. Public consultation Notice of the proposed amendment and a consultation document was made available for public comment for 32 business days between 4 March 2020 and 22 April 2020. Any comments received that were relevant to the survival of the species were considered by the Committee as part of the assessment process. Recovery plan A recovery plan for this species under the EPBC Act is not recommended, because the Approved Conservation Advice provides sufficient direction to implement priority actions and mitigate against key threats. The relevant state/territory may decide to develop a plan under its equivalent legislation.
