  • SCG Victorian Councils Post Amalgamation
    Analysis of Victorian Councils Post Amalgamation September 2019 spence-consulting.com Spence Consulting 2 Analysis of Victorian Councils Post Amalgamation Analysis by Gavin Mahoney, September 2019 It’s been over 20 years since the historic Victorian Council amalgamations that saw the sacking of 1600 elected Councillors, the elimination of 210 Councils and the creation of 78 new Councils through an amalgamation process with each new entity being governed by State appointed Commissioners. The Borough of Queenscliffe went through the process unchanged and the Rural City of Benalla and the Shire of Mansfield after initially being amalgamated into the Shire of Delatite came into existence in 2002. A new City of Sunbury was proposed to be created from part of the City of Hume after the 2016 Council elections, but this was abandoned by the Victorian Government in October 2015. The amalgamation process and in particular the sacking of a democratically elected Council was referred to by some as revolutionary whilst regarded as a massacre by others. On the sacking of the Melbourne City Council, Cr Tim Costello, Mayor of St Kilda in 1993 said “ I personally think it’s a drastic and savage thing to sack a democratically elected Council. Before any such move is undertaken, there should be questions asked of what the real point of sacking them is”. Whilst Cr Liana Thompson Mayor of Port Melbourne at the time logically observed that “As an immutable principle, local government should be democratic like other forms of government and, therefore the State Government should not be able to dismiss any local Council without a ratepayers’ referendum.

The level of information provided varies from municipality to municipality. Estimates of Councils’ Receipts and Expenditure are often given. How the Rate Books are generally arranged: These records were created annually, often arranged by streets within Council Wards or Ridings. Sometimes streets were arranged alphabetically, but more often they were arranged according to an established route taken by the Council’s Valuer. In the latter case, it is common for entries for each property to be allocated a consecutive rate (or assessment) number which reflects the particular route taken. The rate numbers usually changed each year due to the addition or removal of rateable properties along the route. How to Use the Rate Books: Determine the Local Government area your land or building was originally located in. This is important as the present day City of Greater Bendigo was formed in 1994 after the amalgamation of the City of Bendigo (formerly Sandhurst), the Rural City of Marong, the Borough of Eaglehawk, and the Shires of Huntly, Strathfieldsaye and McIvor.

  • Chapter 1: Overview
    CHAPTER 1: OVERVIEW • The Bracks Labor Government’s first budget delivers its output election commitments in full with $426 million in new output initiatives to improve services to all Victorians, within a responsible financial framework. • Consistent with the Government’s commitment to responsible financial management, a substantial operating surplus of $592 million is forecast for 2000-01. • Continued substantial operating surpluses will result in budget sector net financial liabilities falling from 10.9 per cent of GSP as at 30 June 1999 to 7.7 per cent as at June 2004, and state government net debt declining from $6.2 billion to $4.7 billion. • The Government will take advantage of the strong budget position in 1999-2000 to establish a $1 billion infrastructure reserve, Growing Victoria, to boost infrastructure spending by an additional 20 per cent over the next four years. • Business taxes will be reduced by a minimum of $200 million by July 2003, including $100 million from July 2001, subject to the maintenance of a substantial operating surplus of at least $100 million. This will keep Victoria’s taxes broadly in line with the national average and below New South Wales. Details of the business tax cuts will be determined following a review of Victoria’s tax system, to be completed by the end of 2000. • New infrastructure projects with a total estimated cost of $987 million will commence in 2000-01 to provide new and better schools, hospitals, transport and other community facilities. Total spending on the net purchase of fixed assets in 2000-01 will be $1 152 million.
