  • 21.04-4 SETTLEMENT Urban Areas Overview in 1996 The
    LOCAL PROVISION TOWONG PLANNING SCHEME TOWONG PLANNING SCHEME, AMENDMENT C5 21.04-4 SETTLEMENT Urban areas overview In 1996 the Towong Shire had an estimated population of 6,622, with 44.3% of the population living in the five main towns of Corryong, Tallangatta, Bellbridge, Walwa and Eskdale. Other small village areas are Bethanga, Cudgewa, Dartmouth, Granya, Koetong, Mitta Mitta, Old Tallangatta, Tintaldra and Towong. Only Corryong, Tallangatta, Bellbridge and Dartmouth have both reticulated water and sewerage infrastructure. The large land area of the Shire and a small population make it difficult to supply all towns and villages with community services and facilities. It is fortunate that the major towns of Corryong (population of 1215) and Tallangatta (population of 952) are located at each end of the Shire so that most areas can be readily serviced from these locations. Corryong and Tallangatta have an excellent range of facilities. The future of these facilities needs to be assured by focusing growth into these areas. Improvement of transport linkages and accessibility of these facilities to other villages and rural communities need to be developed as the ability to fund and build facilities in smaller settlements will be difficult. Existing urban zones within the Shire provide enough residential land in order to accommodate the future population growth of 242 people over the next 15 years. Given that demand for land is low, almost all towns have in excess of 10 years supply of residential land. At present, there is no need for the rezoning of further land for urban development. The existing townships of Corryong and Tallangatta can provide a variety of lot sizes to accommodate an ageing demographic profile.
