Stoneham and Associates identified and conducted simplistic analysis of existing public health and wellbeing activities and trends, and identified gaps in programs to meet community and stakeholder perceptions. The next phase will recommend evidence-based strategies that unite or join up approaches across the organisation, as well as providing options for innovation and identifying roles for agencies external to the Council. The purpose of accessing these data contained within this report was to inform the Public Health Plans for the City of Busselton. 2.0 Findings for the City of Busselton 2.1 Who Lives There? The South West is the most populated region outside Perth and has experienced a long standing pattern of population growth. The resident population of the Busselton, Margaret River and Augusta health districts is projected to increase by 28.1%, from 45,879 in 2011 to over 58,783 by 2021. This level of growth is markedly higher than the expected 20.3% growth of the State for the same time period. Busselton’s population is equivalent to almost 1.5% of the WA population with similar percentage of males and females. There is a difference in the median age being 6 years older and 2% higher in the 65-69 years range compared with the State. From 2017 Busselton’s population is predicted to grow by 2.2% every year until 2026, higher than the average growth rate of 1.3% for the Southwest. It is projected that by 2026, the City of Busselton will have 48640 residents. The following tables provide demographic information on people living in the City of Busselton. Population Busselton Western Australia Total 36,686 2,474,410 Male 17,908 (48.8%) 1,238,419 (50%) Female 18,787 (51.2%) 1,235,994 (50%) Table One - Total population and by sex (ABS 2016) MELISSA STONEHAM 4 The Aboriginal population by percentage in the City of Busselton, is 1.5% lower than the State Busselton Western Australia 603 (1.6%) 75,978 (3.1%) Table Two - Aboriginal people and Torres Strait Islanders population Table Three demonstrates that the City of Busselton have higher than the State average for the all age groups from 0-79 years and lower than the WA average for 80 years and over. The number of children aged 0-5 years is 2685. The largest number of people in the Busselton region were those aged 40 to 49 years totalling 5428 people, which were followed by children aged up to nine years old totalling 5111 people. Age Busselton % Western % Australia Median age 42 - 36 - 0-4 years 2,242 6.1 161,727 6.5 5-9 years 2,688 7.3 164,153 6.6 10-14 years 2,541 6.9 150,806 6.1 65-69 years 2,455 6.7 116,755 4.7 70-74 years 1,791 4.9 82,911 3.4 75-79 years 1,262 3.4 61,509 2.5 80-84 years 865 2.4 42,590 1.7 85 years 851 2.3 42,420 1.7 and over Table Three - Age structure by 5 year age bands (0-14, 65 and over) It is projected that by 2026, the City of Busselton will have 16505 people aged 50 years and over. Given that at age 60 years, a Western Australian man can expect to live another 21.9 years and a Western Australian woman another 25.6 years1, this is a priority for the City in relation to future planning for an age friendly environment. 1 Office of Seniors & Volunteering (2006) Western Australia’s Seniors Active Ageing Benchmark Indicators 2006.

  • Assessing the Conservation Reserve System in the Jarrah Forest Bioregion
    JournalJournal of ofthe the Royal Royal Society Society of ofWestern Western Australia, Australia, 79(4), 79:241–248, December 1996 1996 Assessing the conservation reserve system in the Jarrah Forest Bioregion N L McKenzie1, S D Hopper2, G Wardell-Johnson1,3 & N Gibson1 1 Science and Information Division, Department of Conservation and Land Management, P O Box 51, Wanneroo WA 6065; 2 Kings Park and Botanic Gardens, Fraser Avenue, West Perth WA 6005; 3 present address: Department of Biology, University of Namibia, Private Bag 13301, Windhoek Namibia Abstract Recent reviews have assessed the comprehensiveness of the conservation reserve system over the northern part of the Jarrah Forest Bioregion in terms of vegetation complexes. The complexes were distinguished in terms of geomorphology and dominant vegetation. The least reserved complexes are those of the Darling Scarp, Blackwood Plateau, Collie Coalfields and those with agriculturally desirable soils. Available maps can be used to estimate the reserved area of each of the Bioregion’s vegetation complexes or geomorphic units, but there are not enough data on patterns in biodiversity to assess other facets of its adequacy, even in the northern part of the region. A quadrat-based regional survey is necessary if the representativeness of the area’s reserve system is to be assessed from an ecosystem perspective. The sampling would need to cover a range of the different components of the biota (perennial floristics, vertebrates and selected invertebrate taxa). Such surveys are time-consuming and expensive. Current studies of rare, restricted and endemic spe- cies, of weed, feral animal and pathogen impacts, and of forest management effects, need to continue in parallel.
