    BASS COAST SHIRE COUNCIL WASTE MANAGEMENT STRATEGY 2015 – 2025 Version: 1.0 Date of issue: August 2015 Prepared For Bass Coast Shire Council 74 McBride Avenue Wonthaggi Prepared by Environmental Resources Management Australia Pty Ltd 18-38 Siddeley Street Melbourne Victoria 3000 Acknowledgement Bass Coast Shire Council wishes to acknowledge the community’s generous contribution of their time to the development of this report. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Background Bass Coast Shire is the fastest growing local government area in Gippsland with the resident population of about 30,000, increasing to over 70,000 during peak holiday periods (www.forecast.id.com.au). The area also attracts visitors to Philip Island Nature Parks and the Motor Cycle Grand Prix and is well renowned for its special natural environment, with eco-tourism opportunities and major motorsports events attracting millions of visitors every year. The generation of waste is expected to increase in the future in line with projected population increases, which has been predicted to rise to approximately 45,000 by 2031, an increase of approximately 42%. This, coupled with a number of identified waste management challenges and issues provides significant drivers for consideration of a new waste management strategic direction and sustainability initiatives across the Shire. Purpose The Waste Management Strategy (WMS) has been developed as part of the commitment Bass Coast Shire Council has made to provide sustainable solutions for the collection, disposal and resource recovery from waste generated within the community. The Strategy’s main purpose is to guide the management of waste over the next 10 years, 2015 - 2025.

  • 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.

This is a major focus of this year’s budget and delivers a real increase of 22% in Council funding for capital works. The focus of the budget this year has been to address the renewal of our existing infrastructure, whilst setting a longer term course to bring down the rate of increase in our charges, particularly rates, for our community. Rates and garbage charges for 2014/15 will average $1,567, an increase of 6.0% (as compared with a 6.4% last year).

  • Reform of the Psychiatric Disability Rehabilitation and Support Services Program
    Mental Health Community Support Services June 2014 Fact Sheet 2: Information for Existing Clients Fact Sheet: Information for Existing Clients This fact sheet provides information for current clients of mental health community support services provided under the Victorian Psychiatric Disability Rehabilitation and Support Services (PDRSS) program. It includes information about the changes that will happen to these services over the next few months, when these changes will occur and how the changes might affect you. As part of these changes the Victorian Government will also change the name of the PDRSS program to Mental Health Community Support Services (MHCSS) program from August 2014. This change is about supporting you. The changes will ensure access to mental health community support services is fair and equitable by ensuring people most disabled by their mental health condition do not miss out on the support they need. The reforms will make it easier for new and returning consumers and carers to get help no matter where they live. This will be achieved by establishing a centralised intake point for all referrals in each local area. A fact sheet explaining how the new intake assessment system will work will be made available shortly. We also know you want services to be of a consistent quality and designed around your individual needs and preferences. This is why we are introducing Individualised Client Support Packages. They will replace standard, moderate and intensive Home Based Outreach Services, Day Programs, Care Coordination, Aged Intensive Program and Special Client Packages from 1 August 2014. Your support package will help you to develop the life skills needed to live well in the community and to manage your mental illness.
