    Avon-Midland Country Zone of the WA Local Government Association MINUTES OF THE ZONE MEETING held at the Jurien Bay Education & Conference, 67-69 Bashford Street, Jurien Bay Friday 21 February 2020 commencing at 10:10 am 1 OPENING & WELCOME The Zone President and Chair of the meeting, Cr Ken Seymour, welcomed delegates and observers and introduced Cr Dahlia Richardson, Shire of Dandaragan. Cr Richardson welcomed delegates to Jurien Bay and commented on the arts trail recently opened at Badgingarra – The project was inspired by the Dandaragan Shire 4 Arts Group which envisages an art trail connecting the four towns in the Shire: Badgingarra, Dandaragan, Jurien Bay and Cervantes. The Badgingarra Arts Trail is the first section to be opened and comprises a 4.2 km of walk, cycle trail featuring 18 sculptures by Coomberdale artist Natalie Tonkin and the local community. The trail passes the Badgingarra Cemetery with its ornate entry gates. The trail starts opposite the Badgingarra Community Centre on the corner of North West Road and Brand Highway. Cr Richardson introduced the Shire CEO, Mr Brent Bailey, who gave a brief overview of the Shire statistics and commented on – The Shire is the renewable capital of the State with significant solar and wind power generation projects. However, the local district is still impacted by power constraints. The district experienced a 27% growth in tourism over the last 10 years. Iconic industries in the district include Tronox Limited, Iluka Resources, Indian Ocean Rock Lobster (Lobster Shack), Jurien Skydive, Harvest Road (Koojan beef facility in the Shires of Dandaragan, Moora and Victoria Plains), Moora Citrus and AgriFresh.

  • 2015 Local Government Ordinary Elections Report
    2015 Local Government Ordinary Elections Election Report April 2016 W ESTERN AUSTRALIAN Electoral Commission Foreword At the October 2015 local government ordinary elections, the Western Australian Electoral Commission was contracted to manage the largest number of postal elections it had ever conducted. In addition to six in person elections, the Commission was asked to run 82 postal elections under the Local Government Act 1995. With voting in local government elections being non-compulsory in Western Australia, postal elections typically result in a higher participation rate by eligible electors than in person ballots, as they offer most electors greater convenience and accessibility. Making the Electoral Commissioner responsible for these elections also enables local government CEOs and staff to remain at arms-length from potentially contentious aspects of the electoral process. Since they were first trialled in 1995, the number of local governments adopting postal elections has progressively increased. The local governments deciding to conduct a postal election in 2015 comprised some 1,433,575 electors, which is about 98% of the State’s total number of eligible electors. At the close of nominations, 964 candidates had nominated for 419 vacancies resulting in 75 separate postal elections. The highest participation rate for postal elections, both for country and metropolitan local governments in 2015 was the Shire of Mt Marshall with 82.7% and the City of Perth with 37.8%, with an overall Statewide participation rate of 27.5%. I would like to acknowledge the efforts of all returning officers and Commission staff in the planning and conduct of the 2015 ordinary elections and each of the local governments for the assistance and cooperation provided by their staff.
