MURRAY AND MALLEE LOCAL GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION. ANNUAL REPORT - 2003/2004. Comprising – The Berri Barmera Council; Coorong District Council; District Council of Karoonda East Murray; District Council of Loxton Waikerie; Mid Murray Council; The Rural City of Murray Bridge; Renmark Paringa Council; and Southern Mallee District Council. 2 PRESIDENT’S ANNUAL REPORT. Having been given the honour of being the President of the Murray & Mallee Local Government Association (M&MLGA) in June 2003, I would like to say a big thank you to those who served before me. The previous Mayor of Loxton-Waikerie, Jan Cass did a lot of work in her role as President of the M&MLGA and I would like to acknowledge her great contribution to our organization. We have been kept busy on the M&MLGA front with bimonthly meetings held in our Region that have been well supported by the member councils and we have enjoyed great communications from our LGA Executive. One of the main topics lately has been the Natural Resource Management Bill. We are all waiting to find out how it will all work and the input from State Executive has been great. Thank you. Ken Coventry has continued to serve the M&MLGA well as he organises all our guest speakers and represents us on a lot of other committees. He has, however, now indicated he wishes to retire as Chief Executive Officer of the M&MLGA and will stay in place until we appoint a new CEO. On behalf of the M&MLGA I would like to say a big thank you to Ken for his untiring work and dedication to his duty and he will be sorely missed. -

BLAND SHIRE COUNCIL DRAFT DISABILITY INCLUSION ACTION PLAN 2017 - 2021 www.blandshire.nsw.gov.au PO Box 21, West Wyalong NSW 2671 PH: 02 6972 2266 Fax: 02 6972 2145 Email: [email protected] 1 Message from the Mayor I take great pleasure in presenting Bland Shire Council's Disability Inclusion Action Plan 2017-2021. This Plan outlines Council's actions over the next four years to make the Bland Shire more inclusive of people with a disability. The plan forms part of other major reforms within the disability sector, to encourage positive change to the lives of people with disability and supports the full participation of all community members in all aspects of the community. Council has already implemented a range of programs and strategies to remove access barriers and increase participation of people with disability in our community. This Plan builds on our previous work and seeks to strengthen the capacity of all Bland Shire residents. As an all encompassing planning tool, the Plan has four major focus areas: 1. Positive attitudes and behaviour; 2. Liveable communities; 3. Employment; and 4. Systems and Processes Adopting a broad focus across all of these areas will ensure the Bland Shire is continually striving for improvement to ensure our community is inclusive and offers opportunities for the full participation of all community members. Engaging the community is vital to the Plan's success and I urge community members and other local stakeholders to support its implementation. An inclusive Bland Shire will benefit everyone and strengthen our community. Bland Shire Council – Disability Inclusion Action Plan (DIAP) 2017 - 2021 2 Message from the General Manager I am proud to champion the implementation of the Bland Shire Disability Inclusion Action Plan (DIAP) 2017-2021. -
Northern Connectivity Event Update 25 May 2018
Northern connectivity event 25 May 2018 update Northern connectivity event update 5 Release of water from dams to support native fish in rivers of the northern Murray-Darling Basin started in mid-April. This water has now flowed from the Gwydir and Macintyre rivers into the Barwon-Darling, and is now between Collarenebri and Bourke. Monitoring of fish and habitat is underway. The watering event is being shared with riverside communities. Event update The flow from the northern connectivity event reached 1,000 ML/day in the Barwon River at Brewarrina on 22 May, and remains at about that level. This is the first time in over a year that flow of around 1,000 ML/day has persisted for more than a day there. The current flow at Brewarrina Weir is shown below – note the inundation of in- channel vegetation downstream of the weir, which is providing organic material and habitat, and the rock ramp fishway on the bottom right of the image, which allows fish to move past the weir and disperse upstream and downstream. 1 Flow 1 1 Northern connectivity event 25 May 2018 update Recent images from around Brewarrina and the weir are shown below. The weir is indicated by a white asterisk on the satellite images. There was a significant change in water colour as the connectivity flow arrived, as a result of river bed inundation and the capture of sediment and organic material into the flow, to fuel productivity. Brewarrina (from satellite) ←16 May, before * 21 May, * after→ Brewarrina fishway ← 8 May – before, 20 ML/day 23 May – after, 1,000 ML/day→ 2,3 Interestingly, the depth of flow in the Brewarrina fishway (above) has changed little as the flow increased.
