Commission’s future priorities _____________________________________ 27 Local Government Remuneration Commission Report 2020 5 6 2020 Report key determinations In its 2019 report, the Commission determined not to make any category changes. The Commission did, however, state its intention to undertake an analysis of the categories in the period 2020-2021, after the 2020 quadrennial Queensland Local Government Elections. The Commission’s anticipated analysis has been delayed in 2020 due to the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic. COVID-19 has inevitably resulted in an increased focus on other priorities for Queensland local government. The Commission commends all local government members for their on-going contribution to their communities and the State of Queensland. The Commission still intends to undertake a category review during 2021 and will engage with and invite submissions from councils and stakeholders commencing in early 2021. The Commission has decided not to increase the maximum remuneration levels for mayors, deputy mayors and councillors from 1 July 2021. The levels will remain as set at the amounts fixed for 1 July 2020. In making its determination, the Commission considered the following: • Decrease in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the financial year ended 30 June 2020 (percentage change from previous financial year)1 o Weighted average of the eight capital cities: -0.3 per cent o Brisbane: -1.0 per cent • Increases in the Wage Price Index (WPI) for the financial year ended 30 June 20202 o Australia (All Industries): +2.1 per cent o Australia (Public Sector): +2.3 per cent o Queensland (All Industries and Public Sector): +1.9 per cent • Queensland

  • North Stradbroke Island Historical Museum Association Inc
    NORTH STRADBROKE ISLAND HISTORICAL MUSEUM ASSOCIATION INC. ANNUAL REPORT 15th September 2017 It is my pleasure to present the Annual Report for 2016/2017. The major milestone and event for the year was our 30th Anniversary celebration on 13th May with a community function at the Museum and the running of two big raffles. I thank all the generous donors to those raffles and to all the ticket buyers. We also thank Bernadette Ryan for her great work in arranging all the Raffle prizes and making the raffles so exciting. The function and the Raffles were very successful fund raisers and we will be carefully considering the special uses we put the money toward. As part of the 30th Anniversary celebrations, the Museum collected artwork from every Dunwich State School Class inspired by the Museum Collection, and I am sure everybody enjoyed them posted all over the Museum at the student’s discretion. Long serving Management Committee Members Margaret Nash and Barbara Smith will not be standing for re-election this year. Margaret as Treasurer and Barbara as Secretary and Display convener have for many years given invaluable service to the Museum. We wish them well in their retirement. On behalf of the Museum I want to express our appreciation of the work all the volunteers contributed through the year. And both Lisa and Elisabeth who contribute far more time and effort than we could ever pay them for. Lisa and Elisabeth have both been granted valuable Research Awards this year. Elisabeth is being funded to do research at the Queensland Maritime Museum and Lisa has been granted a Fellowship with the Queensland State Library.

  • 2014 Update of the SEQ NRM Plan: Redlands
    Item: Redlands Draft LG Report Date: Last updated 11th November 2014 2014 Update of the SEQ NRM Plan: Redlands How can the SEQ NRM Plan support the Community’s Vision for the future of Redlands? Supporting Document no. 7 for the 2014 Update of the SEQ Natural Resource Management Plan. Note regards State Government Planning Policy: The Queensland Government is currently undertaking a review of the SEQ Regional Plan 2009. Whilst this review has yet to be finalised, the government has made it clear that the “new generation” statutory regional plans focus on the particular State Planning Policy issues that require a regionally-specific policy direction for each region. This quite focused approach to statutory regional plans compares to the broader content in previous (and the current) SEQ Regional Plan. The SEQ Natural Resource Management Plan has therefore been prepared to be consistent with the State Planning Policy.
