Introduction The Clare & Gilbert Valleys Council has prepared a Strategic Directions Report, pursuant to Section 30 of the Development Act, herein called the Review. As a result of the adoption of the Mid North Regional Plan (a volume of the Planning Strategy) Council is required to undertake the Review (Section 30 of Development Act) within 12 months of its adoption. The Clare & Gilbert Valleys Council was formed in 1997, following the amalgamation of the District Councils of Clare, Riverton and Saddleworth & Auburn. The Council has a population of 8,749 people (2011 Census), over an area of 184,000 hectares. There are 18 towns and settlements within the area including:- Clare Stockport Riverton Waterloo Saddleworth Marrabel Auburn Watervale Manoora Sevenhill Mintaro Penwortham Armagh Leasingham Rhynie Black Springs Tarlee Hilltown Figure 1.1 – Council area The Clare & Gilbert Valleys Council, as a separate process, has also revised its Strategic Management Plan under Section 122 of the Local Government Act and undertaken considerable community engagement through that process in 2012. Strategic Directions Report, 2012/13 – Clare & Gilbert Valleys Council 7 2. What is a Strategic Directions Report? The Strategic Directions Report (the Review), commonly called a Section 30 Review, is required under Section 30 of the Development Act, and is critical to actively promote, shape and encourage good development and quality economic, social and environmental outcomes for the Clare and Gilbert Valleys. The Review considers strategic planning issues affecting the Clare and Gilbert Valleys with specific reference to the Planning Strategy (Mid North Region Plan) and other strategic documents - and makes recommendations on the future changes to the Development Plan for the Council area. The Review considers Council’s priorities for:- Achieving orderly and efficient development via planning policies Land use and transport planning Implementing targets set out in the Planning Strategy Social and physical infrastructure planning Other projects considered relevant by the Council. Principally the Review focuses on an analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the Development Plan to identify what changes might be needed into the future in terms of managing growth and promoting development that is in the best long term interest of the Clare and Gilbert Valleys. This Review is separate from the review of the ‘Strategic Management Plan’ which Council is currently undertaking under Section 122 of the Local Government Act. However the outcomes from that review are considered as part of the Strategic Directions Review. The Review has been prepared in-line with the Department for Planning, Transport and Infrastructure guidelines and template for the undertaking of a Strategic Directions Report. 2.1 What is a Development Plan? The Development Plan is a document that controls and manages all forms of development within the Clare and Gilbert Valleys. It is one of Council’s many roles to ensure the Development Plan is up-to-date and is regularly reviewed. When you seek to undertake any form of development (for example but not limited to:- building work, a change in land use, subdivision of land; work associated with a State or Local Heritage place) you must first obtain Development Approval by lodging an application with Council - Council then assesses the application against the provisions of the Development Plan.

  • The Public Will Thank You for Your Timely Article on the Absurdity of So Many of the Names with Which Our Localities in South Australia Are Humiliated
    B The public will thank you for your timely article on the absurdity of so many of the names with which our localities in South Australia are humiliated. The places so handicapped are, like the unfortunate infants christened after certain celebrities, voiceless in the matter… (Register, 25 July 1900, page 7d) Baan Hill - On section 50, Hundred of Allenby; an adjacent spring gives a good supply of water all year round; derived from the Aboriginal panau - ‘ochre’. The name was given to a pastoral run by H.S. Williams and J.T. Bagot and, on 24 June 1976, proclaimed as a recreation reserve. Babbage, Mount - B.H. Babbage discovered the mountain in 1856 and named it ‘Mount Hopeful’; in the following year it was renamed by G.W. Goyder. Babbage Peninsula, situated on Lake Eyre North was, virtually, discovered by Babbage, as opposed to Lake Eyre South which was discovered by E.J. Eyre and not named until 1963. Born in London, circa 1814, he came to South Australia in the Hydaspes in 1851. A qualified engineer he was involved in the construction of the Port Adelaide railway, entered Parliament in 1857 and resigned nine months later to command a northern exploration party. By the end of six months his explorations had scarcely penetrated beyond the limits of pastoral settlement and, consequently, both the public and the government, increasingly, became impatient at his slow rate of progress. Eventually, Major P. E. Warburton was dispatched to take over the leadership and, later, it was said that, ‘Babbage’s expedition of 1858-59 was one of the most fruitful in its detailed collection of geographical information and the minuteness of its survey work.’ The Advertiser of 24 December 1858 has a satirical poem - one verse reads: Each caviller at Babbage then A fairy land, no doubt, he’d see, We’d northward send exploring Where others saw but gravel, To find new land, or water when And geographic problems he He chose artesian boring! Most surely would unravel.
