Why advocacy is Are you looking for a new best friend? so important What is advocacy and why does Council regularly knock on the doors of Parliament House in Melbourne and Canberra? Advocacy is the way the City of Greater Bendigo asks for support from government to deliver major projects and services that our community values. We can’t do things on our own. Multi-million dollar projects like the Gurri Wanyarra Wellbeing Centre, Bendigo Stadium expansion, new Bendigo Airport runway, Ulumbarra Theatre, Bendigo Tennis Centre redevelopment and much more would not have been achieved without support from the Victorian and Australian Governments. Elections can deliver surprising results, so our conversations are with all sides of government so they can understand the role they play in helping a city to grow and develop. We would simply not have Qantas flights between Bendigo and Sydney if the initial investment had not been made in building a new runway, but we needed all levels of government to support that project because Council cannot fund something of that scale by itself. Our focus isn’t always on major projects. The City has recently partnered with the Victorian Government to deliver the new Healthy Heart of Victoria initiative, which focuses on supporting our community to live more active and healthy lives. The recent Active Living Census was funded through this initiative and the data collected from that survey will help us secure funding for future health and infrastructure projects because we have the information to prove it’s what our community wants. With funding from the Victorian Government, through the Transport Accident Commission, we also introduced a range of safety measures Benefits of pet registration on our roads over the past 12 months, including reducing speed limits and installing new pedestrian crossings at busy roundabouts in the city Registering and microchipping your dog belong to a registered domestic animal centre.

  • Recreational Facilities Recorded Presentation Transcript
    The Auditor-General provides assurance to Parliament on the accountability and performance of the Victorian Public Sector. The Auditor-General conducts financial audits and performance audits, and reports on the results of these audits to Parliament. On 23 March 2016, the Auditor-General tabled his performance audit report, Local Government Service Delivery: Recreational Facilities. 1 Aquatic Recreation Centres (ARCs) function as diverse active social spaces and provide a range of social and wellbeing benefits. ARC’s include swimming pools and a range of other wet and dry facilities. 2 The audit found that audited councils effectively engage with communities and have a sound understanding of their needs. Examined ARCs are generally well planned and managed. ARC development and refurbishment is reliant on government grants and councils generally subsidise their operations. There is a need for councils and Sport and Recreation Victoria (SRV) to better evaluate outcomes and to improve planning for ARCs at a regional level. 3 ARCs have moved beyond the provision of basic swimming pools to incorporate multiple activities and facilities including spas, saunas, water play areas, child care and fitness classes. There is a relatively low return on investment from ARCs, which means the private sector has limited interest in providing these facilities. 4 Between 2015–16 and 2018–19, Victoria’s 79 councils have planned $933 million in capital expenditure on recreational and community facilities. Victorian councils are also delivering these facilities in the context of ongoing financial sustainability issues including uncertainty about future grant allocations and the introduction of rate capping. 5 There are 278 council-owned ARCs spread across Victoria, as shown in Figure 1A in our report.
