    Warren Blackwood Strategic Alliance: 9Th July 2008

    INQUIRY INTO A NEW REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT FUNDING PRQGRABUBMISSION 80 Submission by the Warren Blackwood Strategic Alliance: 9th July 2008. 1. The Warren Blackwood Strategic Alliance Based in the South West of Western Australia,, the Warren Blackwood Strategic Alliance (the Alliance) is an association of the Shires of Boyup Brook, Bridgetown-Greenbushes, Manjimup and Nannup supported by the South West Development Commission. Its Board Members also include representatives from the community. The Alliance's objective is to be a voice for the Warren Blackwood region and to promote activity which will benefit the community, by means of lobbying and persuasion. It is in this context that we make this submission. This submission has been approved by the Board of the Warren Blackwood Strategic Alliance 2. The importance of the Regional Partnerships Programme (RPP) to the Warren Blackwood area. The Warren Blackwood area (comprising the Shires of Boyup Brook, Bridgetown-Greenbushes, Manjimup and Nannup) gains only peripheral benefit from the significant growth in population and business which has recently taken place in the coastal areas of the South West Region of Western Australia. This growth has occurred principally in the City of Bunbury and the towns of Busselton, Dunsborough and Margaret River and is projected to continue over the next few years. As a result of this growth the population of the South West Region of Western Australia increased by 29.1% from 1996 to 2006. In this ten year period the population of the Warren Blackwood decreased by 5.6%. At the time of the 2006 Census the population of the Warren Blackwood (16.243) comprised 11.2% of the population of the South West Region of Western Australia (145,308).

  • 2015 Local Government Ordinary Elections Report

    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.

    South Coast Region Regional Management Plan

    SOUTH COAST REGION REGIONAL MANAGEMENT PLAN 1992 - 2002 MANAGEMENT PLAN NO. 24 Department of Conservation and Land Management for the National Parks and Nature Conservation Authority and the Lands and Forest Commission Western Australia PREFACE Regional management plans are prepared by the Department of Conservation and Land Management on behalf of the Lands and Forest Commission and the National Parks and Nature Conservation Authority. These two bodies submit the plans for final approval and modification, if required, by the Minister for the Environment. Regional plans are to be prepared for each of the 10 regions administered by the Department of Conservation and Land Management (CALM). This plan for the South Coast Region covers all lands and waters in the Region vested under the CALM Act, together with wildlife responsibilities included in the Wildlife Conservation Act. In addition to the Regional Plan, more detailed management plans will be prepared for certain critical management issues, (the most serious of which is the spread of dieback disease in the Region); particular high value or high conflict areas, (such as some national parks); or for certain exploited or endangered species, (such as kangaroos and the Noisy Scrub-bird). These plans will provide more detailed information and guidance for management staff. The time frame for this Regional Plan is ten years, although review and restatement of some policies may be necessary during this period. Implementation will take place progressively over this period and there will be continuing opportunity for public comment. This management plan was submitted by the Department of Conservation and Land Management and adopted by the Lands and Forest Commission on 12 June 1991 and the National Parks and Nature Conservation Authority on 19 July 1991 and approved by the Minister for the Environment on 23 December 1991.
