The run covered an area of more than 144,900 acres and was populated with an estimated 12,000 sheep. A portion of Campaspe Plains was licensed to A.

    092%.%%3À0,!..).'À3#(%-% LOCAL PROVISION 21.02 MUNICIPAL PROFILE 21.02-1 Profile of Pyrenees Shire Pyrenees Shire was created in September 1994 by the amalgamation of the Shires of Avoca, Lexton and Ripon. It takes its name from the Pyrenees Range - a “fold range” which is almost entirely located within its municipal borders. 21.02-2 Regional Context Pyrenees Shire is located in central Victoria between the regional centres of Ballarat and Ararat. It shares common boundaries with the City of Ballarat and Shire of Hepburn to the east, Golden Plains Shire to the south-east, Corangamite and Moyne Shires to the south, Rural City of Ararat to the west, Northern Grampians Shire to the north-west and Central Goldfields Shire to the north-east. The Shire covers an area of 3457 square kilometres, extending approximately 90 kilometres in a north- south direction and 40 kilometres in an east-west direction. Despite its size, the Shire has only a small population, the majority of which reside in the towns of Beaufort and Avoca. There are a number of smaller townships and settlements located throughout the Shire however, which provide local services and facilities to surrounding rural areas and provide important foci for community activities and social interaction. The Western, Sunraysia and Pyrenees Highways pass through the Shire and provide it with good connections to the surrounding region and to Melbourne. However the good external road connections combined with the small population has resulted in residents relying to some extent on the nearby regional centres and large towns for employment and to meet their needs for retail services, community services and entertainment.

    CORRECTED VERSION ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE Inquiry into structural changes in Victorian economy Warracknabeal – 29 August 2001 Members Mr R. A. Best Mr N. B. Lucas Mrs A. Coote Mr J. M. McQuilten Mr G. R. Craige Mr T. C. Theophanous Ms K. Darveniza Chairman: Mr N. B. Lucas Deputy Chairman: Mr T. C. Theophanous Staff Executive Officer: Mr R. Willis Research Officer: Ms K. Ellingford Witnesses Cr D. Bell, Mayor; Cr K. Sleep; and Ms J. Tod, Chief Executive Officer, Shire of Yarriambiack. 29 August 2001 Economic Development Committee 165 The CHAIRMAN — I declare open the Warracknabeal hearings of the Economic Development Committee, an all-party investigatory committee of the Legislative Council. All evidence taken by the committee, including submissions, is subject to parliamentary privilege and is granted immunity from judicial review pursuant to the Constitution Act and the Parliamentary Committees Act. Today the committee is hearing evidence on its references into structural change in the Victorian economy and exports. I thank the Shire of Yarriambiack for making the facilities available for the hearings. I welcome the mayor, Cr Bell, Cr Sleep and Ms Tod, the chief executive officer of the shire. The committee appreciates being here and looks forward to hearing from the council and other members of the community in Warracknabeal. Would you care to make an opening statement? Cr BELL — The Shire of Yarriambiack is a big shire and covers 200 kilometres from one end to the other, with 13 small towns. In the past few years we have seen a dramatic decrease in the population. We also have had a lot of people move from other areas to live into the small towns of the shire.
