It has the nation's most comprehensive reserve system forming the cornerstone for the sustainable use of Victoria's terrestrial, freshwater and marine ecosystems. In 2020, these 'jewels in Victoria's crown' are highly valued by the local community and international visitors.

OUR DECISION The Fair Go Rates System (FGRS), established in the Local Government Act 1989 (the Act), requires local councils to limit their average annual rate increases to a rate cap, determined annually by the Minister for Local Government (the Minister).1 For the 2016-17 rating year, the cap has been set at 2.5 per cent. Councils wishing to increase their average annual rates by more than 2.5 per cent in 2016-17 must first obtain approval from the Essential Services Commission (the Commission). We are responsible for approving, rejecting or approving in part the higher cap sought by a council. This paper outlines our decision in response to an application by Towong Shire Council (Towong) for a higher cap of 6.34 per cent (which includes the Minister’s rate cap of 2.5 per cent) to apply in 2016-17.

The purpose of the Study is to complete the identification, assessment and documentation of places of post-contact cultural significance within Corangamite Shire, excluding the town of Camperdown (the study area) and to make recommendations for their future conservation. This volume contains the Reviewed and Revised Thematic Environmental History. It should be read in conjunction with Volumes 1 & 2 of the Study, which contain the following: • Volume 1. Overview, Methodology & Recommendations • Volume 2. Citations for Precincts, Individual Places and Cultural Landscapes This document was reviewed and revised by Ray Tonkin and Samantha Westbrooke in July 2013 as part of the completion of the Corangamite Heritage Study, Stage 2. This was a task required by the brief for the Stage 2 study and was designed to ensure that the findings of the Stage 2 study were incorporated into the final version of the Thematic Environmental History. The revision largely amounts to the addition of material to supplement certain themes and the addition of further examples of places that illustrate those themes. There has also been a significant re-formatting of the document. Most of the original version was presented in a landscape format.
