    (MSS) Outlines the Land Use Planning Directions for the Gannawarra Shire

    GANNAWARRA PLANNING SCHEME 21 MUNICIPAL STRATEGIC STATEMENT 14/09/2006 C9 The Municipal Strategic Statement (MSS) outlines the land use planning directions for the Gannawarra Shire. The MSS is presented in the planning scheme as part of the Gannawarra Local Planning Policy Framework. The inclusion of the MSS in the planning scheme means that it can be implemented by decisions made in the administration of the planning scheme. The MSS provides strategic justification for zones, overlays, local policies and controls contained in the planning scheme. The MSS is derived from the Gannawarra Strategic and Planning Scheme Review project that commenced in September 1995. This Review was supported by several important strategy documents that dealt with a range of concerns including salinity, catchment management, water quality, flooding, rural land use, economic development and tourism. The Review included the development of an Integrated Strategy Plan (ISP) that established a framework for making decisions about the future use and development of land. This ISP formed the basis of the MSS in the new format planning scheme. The MSS is an important component of the Gannawarra Shire Council Plan. It assists in the achievement of the Corporate Plans goals, strategies and action plans, especially in relation to Environmental, Planning and Regulatory Services. The MSS is a forward looking document with a 10 to 15 year timeframe. The MSS will be reviewed every 3 years. 21.01 MUNICIPAL PROFILE 14/09/2006 C9 Gannawarra Shire was created in January 1995 and comprises the former Borough of Kerang and former Shire of Kerang, excluding the Tresco area, and former Shire of Cohuna excluding the Gunbower area.

The primary purpose of conducting reviews of this nature is to provide an overview as to whether public funds in programs selected for examination, are being spent in an economic and efficient manner consistent with government policies and objectives. Constructive suggestions are also provided in line with the ongoing process of modifying and improving financial management and accountability controls within the public sector. I am pleased to advise that this review has already proven to be of benefit to the government departments involved, as evidenced by their positive replies detailing initiatives already undertaken or evolving. I am also hopeful that this report will assist in resolving other issues, including the development of a policy on the use and management of public buildings. The co-operation and assistance received by my staff from the departments during the course of the review was appreciated. It is my view that there is a growing awareness by government agencies of the advantages to be gained from such reviews, particularly the provision of independent advice on areas of concern.
