The Shire comprises a land area of approximately 5229 square kilometres comprising undulating to hilly rural grazing land, timbered lifestyle areas and retreat bushland. The Local Government Area (LGA) is adjoined by four other LGAs – Palerang to the north, Tumut and Snowy River to the west, Bombala to the south and Bega Valley to the east. The main economic activities in the Shire include sheep and cattle grazing plus the “provision” of hobby farms / rural home sites in the Cooma area for the Cooma market, in the Michelago area (ie the northern part of the Shire) for the Canberra market and at various other locations including along the Murrumbidgee River and at the southeast periphery near Nimmitabel. These rural/ residential blocks and bush retreats cater for a number of sub markets and demand tends to ebb and flow. Number of properties valued this year and the total land value in dollars The Cooma-Monaro LGA comprises Residential, Rural, Commercial, Industrial, Infrastructure/Special Purposes, Environmental and Public Recreation zones. 5,388 properties were valued at the Base Date of 1 July 2015, and valuations are reflective of the property market at that time.

  • The Great Property Crime Drop: a Regional Analysis
    NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research Bureau Brief Issue paper no. 88 July 2013 The Great Property Crime Drop: A regional analysis Don Weatherburn and Jessie Holmes Aim: To describe and discuss regional variation between parts of NSW in the rate at which theft and robbery offences have fallen. Method: Percentage changes in rates of offending in robbery and various categories of theft were calculated for the period 2000 to 2012. Changes in the extent to which rates of crime across areas have become more similar were quantified by comparing the standard deviation in crime rates across areas in 2000 to the standard deviation in crime rates in 2012. Product moment calculations were used to measure (a) the extent to which areas with high crime rates in 2000 also had high crime rates in 2012 and (b) the extent to which areas with the highest crime rates in 2000 had the largest falls in crime in 2012. Results: The fall in property crime and robbery across NSW between 2000 and 2012 has been very uneven; being much larger in Sydney and other urban areas than in rural areas. The fall in theft offence rates ranges from 62 per cent in the Sydney Statistical Division (SD) to 5.9 per cent in the Northern SD. Similarly, the fall in robbery rates ranges from 70.8 per cent in the Sydney SD to 21.9 per cent in the Northern SD. In some areas some offences actually increased. The Murray, Northern, Murrumbidgee, North Western, Hunter and Central West SDs, for example, all experienced an increase in steal from a retail store.

  • An Ecological History of the Koala Phascolarctos Cinereus in Coffs Harbour and Its Environs, on the Mid-North Coast of New South Wales, C1861-2000
    An Ecological History of the Koala Phascolarctos cinereus in Coffs Harbour and its Environs, on the Mid-north Coast of New South Wales, c1861-2000 DANIEL LUNNEY1, ANTARES WELLS2 AND INDRIE MILLER2 1Offi ce of Environment and Heritage NSW, PO Box 1967, Hurstville NSW 2220, and School of Biological Sciences, University of Sydney, NSW 2006 ([email protected]) 2Offi ce of Environment and Heritage NSW, PO Box 1967, Hurstville NSW 2220 Published on 8 January 2016 at http://escholarship.library.usyd.edu.au/journals/index.php/LIN Lunney, D., Wells, A. and Miller, I. (2016). An ecological history of the Koala Phascolarctos cinereus in Coffs Harbour and its environs, on the mid-north coast of New South Wales, c1861-2000. Proceedings of the Linnean Society of New South Wales 138, 1-48. This paper focuses on changes to the Koala population of the Coffs Harbour Local Government Area, on the mid-north coast of New South Wales, from European settlement to 2000. The primary method used was media analysis, complemented by local histories, reports and annual reviews of fur/skin brokers, historical photographs, and oral histories. Cedar-cutters worked their way up the Orara River in the 1870s, paving the way for selection, and the fi rst wave of European settlers arrived in the early 1880s. Much of the initial development arose from logging. The trade in marsupial skins and furs did not constitute a signifi cant threat to the Koala population of Coffs Harbour in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The extent of the vegetation clearing by the early 1900s is apparent in photographs.

  • Draft MRCA Submission on Michelago Masterplan Consultation Documents
    DRAFT SUBMISSION on SMRC Michelago Masterplan consultation Introduction Michelago Region Community Association Inc (MRCA) thanks the Snowy Monaro Regional Council (SMRC) for the Michelago Masterplan process, and for its consultative approach to planning the future of Michelago. We have examined the: ● Draft Michelago Masterplan Scenarios for Exhibition (the Draft Masterplan Scenarios), ● Michelago Masterplan - postcard A5 (the postcard), ● Kitchen Table Discussion Guide (the Kitchen Table Guide), ● Michelago scenarios summary presentation (13.6 MB) (‘the growth scenarios paper’), and the ● Growth Scenarios Survey (the consultation documents), and provide the following comments. As we have previously submitted, a strategic plan to guide the development of Michelago is needed urgently so this is not left solely to the discretion of developers or landholders. The consultation documents set out the issues helpfully, and MRCA to the extent possible has listened to community responses on the various potential growth scenarios put forward. MRCA submission on SMRC Michelago Masterplan consultation DRAFT The Briefing Paper and Growth Scenarios paper make clear that water availability is a threshold question when considering potential development of Michelago, and that even low or medium growth would require the provision of water and sewerage services. We agree that any proposal to develop such services which would require a detailed assessment of the environmental impacts of the various options and costs to the council and community, and we do not believe the case has been made. We therefore submit that the ‘Scenario A’ growth scenario be adopted for Michelago and region into the future. The ‘Scenario A’ position set out in this document represents what we believe to be the view of the substantial majority of Michelago and region landholders.
