2011 Shire of Trayning Koorda/Mt Marshall Feasibility Study Regional Transition Group Shire of Koorda Shire of Mt Marshall Shire of Trayning Feasibility Study 12 October 2011 In October 2010 the Shire’s of Koorda Mt Marshall and Trayning resolved to enter into an agreement with the State Government to explore the issues associated with merging our three local governments. The process funded by the State will enable each local government to determine whether it wishes to pursue the proposal to merger as part of the State Structural Reform Program. This report is the first step which will allow each of the local governments to determine whether they wish to advance the merger proposal. Before each Council decides on this proposal the Board has recommended that our communities be consulted. The process of considering this feasibility study will be undertaken over the period November 2011 to February 2012. Each member Council is to convey its decision to the Regional Transition Group Board by March 2012 so that the Minister for Local Government can be advised of the results of this stage of the process. If there is agreement to merge then a further report will need to be prepared and presented to the Local Government Advisory Board. This feasibility study represents several months of research, analysis, review and discussion by the Regional Transition Group Board. It is intended to provide each of the members the background information that will enable them to make an informed decision. It is appropriate to acknowledge the commitment made by the elected members of the three Shires, the Chief Executive Officers and staff of our Councils, representatives from the Department of Local Government and our local government consultants who provided advice to the Board and enable this report to be prepared. ………………………………… J Brooks Presiding Member 12 October 2011 Shire of Koorda Shire of Mt Marshall Shire of Trayning President Janet Brooks President Paul Gillett President Trevor Lamond Councillor Rick Storer Councillor Noel Miguel Councillor Geoff Waters Chief Executive Officer David Burton Matthew Gilfellon Niel Mitchell How this Report is structured This report is structured as follows: An Executive Summary draws out the main issues associated with a possible merger of the three Shires, the benefits and the potential disincentives; An examination of the current state of the local governments, their merged state, transitional issues, rates and financial issues, and other associated matters (Sections 1 to 5); A series of detailed tables and information that provides more detail if required (Attachments 1 to 5). The report generally structure follows the format in the ‘Department of Local Government Regional Transition Groups – Business Planning Template’. As noted above, the report is based on the template, but with the following exceptions: Information in relation to each local government has been aggregated to allow easier comparison (template Part 2), and then any material differences dealt with (template Part 3); There is no ‘Part 6 - Summary Position’. This is represented in the Executive Summary instead; As noted above, detailed information is presented in Appendices; The template uses the term ‘Regional Business Plan’, whereas ‘Feasibility Study’ has been used; Similarly, ‘merger’ has been used in preference to ‘amalgamation’; Given the importance of this category of asset, an assessment of the condition of the road networks of each local government was undertaken; At the request of the local governments, commentary on the social impact of the communities within the Shires was undertaken.

  • 2015 Local Government Ordinary Elections Report
    2015 Local Government Ordinary Elections Election Report April 2016 W ESTERN AUSTRALIAN Electoral Commission Foreword At the October 2015 local government ordinary elections, the Western Australian Electoral Commission was contracted to manage the largest number of postal elections it had ever conducted. In addition to six in person elections, the Commission was asked to run 82 postal elections under the Local Government Act 1995. With voting in local government elections being non-compulsory in Western Australia, postal elections typically result in a higher participation rate by eligible electors than in person ballots, as they offer most electors greater convenience and accessibility. Making the Electoral Commissioner responsible for these elections also enables local government CEOs and staff to remain at arms-length from potentially contentious aspects of the electoral process. Since they were first trialled in 1995, the number of local governments adopting postal elections has progressively increased. The local governments deciding to conduct a postal election in 2015 comprised some 1,433,575 electors, which is about 98% of the State’s total number of eligible electors. At the close of nominations, 964 candidates had nominated for 419 vacancies resulting in 75 separate postal elections. The highest participation rate for postal elections, both for country and metropolitan local governments in 2015 was the Shire of Mt Marshall with 82.7% and the City of Perth with 37.8%, with an overall Statewide participation rate of 27.5%. I would like to acknowledge the efforts of all returning officers and Commission staff in the planning and conduct of the 2015 ordinary elections and each of the local governments for the assistance and cooperation provided by their staff.

IRPs outline the recovery actions that are required to urgently address those threatening processes most affecting the ongoing survival of threatened taxa or ecological communities, and begin the recovery process. CALM is committed to ensuring that Threatened taxa are conserved through the preparation and implementation of Recovery Plans (RPs) or IRPs, and by ensuring that conservation action commences as soon as possible and, in the case of Critically Endangered (CR) taxa, always within one year of endorsement of that rank by the Minister. This Interim Recovery Plan will operate from May 2006 to April 2011 but will remain in force until withdrawn or replaced. It is intended that, if the taxon is still ranked Endangered, this IRP will be reviewed after five years and the need for a full Recovery Plan will be assessed. This IRP was given CALM regional approval on 13 February, 2006 and was approved by the Director of Nature Conservation on 22 February, 2006. The allocation of staff time and provision of funds identified in this Interim Recovery Plan is dependent on budgetary and other constraints affecting CALM, as well as the need to address other priorities. Information in this IRP was accurate at May 2006.
