  • Koonung Creek Linear Park Management Plan 2011
    Message from the Mayor Our vision is for a vibrant, safe and culturally diverse community that fosters participation, connectedness, harmony, social inclusion, health and wellbeing. Our parks and reserves are the 'green lungs' for the City and are areas for our enjoyment. When we visit our parks and reserves we feel a sense of wellbeing. We need to plan for them so they can be enjoyed today and be there tomorrow for our children. A well-designed, planned and managed urban green space provides significant aesthetic, social, psychological and environmental benefits for their users. The Koonung Creek Linear Park is enjoyed by many of those who live in Bulleen, Doncaster, Doncaster East and Donvale and our neighbouring municipalities as well. When we improve the access to our natural setting we are improving the quality of life in our neighbourhoods. We are fortunate to have this wonderful “green” environment accessible by so many of our residents to enjoy a walk, cycle and time in a natural setting. There are many benefits for people who visit green, open spaces including: an opportunity to increase physical activity; lower stress levels; experience changes of scenery; and, a place to wind down. I would like to thank the community for their contribution to the consultation process as it has greatly assisted us to identify the issues and opportunities which have shaped the development of the recommendations. GEOFF GOUGH Mayor Executive Summary The Koonung Creek Linear Park Management Plan has been prepared to continue to protect and enhance the environmental values of the Park balanced with the provision of recreational opportunities and experiences in a mix of urban and natural setting, including, walking, cycling, dog walking, commuting and nature appreciation.

  • Surface Water Flooding – Presentation to NEL Panel Hearing, 8 Th August 2019 – Michael Cawood Cut Back Version Due to Time Constraints As Delivered at the Hearing
    Surface Water Flooding – Presentation to NEL Panel Hearing, 8 th August 2019 – Michael Cawood Cut back version due to time constraints as delivered at the Hearing Slide #1 Mr Chairman, Members. Introduce self and principal area of expertise as per evidence. Earlier this year, I reported to Carey Baptist Grammar School on flood related matters and the North East Link Project. That report was subsequently incorporated into Carey’s submission to this Panel Hearing. I will be talking to that report. Slide #2 Carey’s Bulleen Sports Complex is located on the Yarra River and Koonung Creek floodplain at the top end of what is generally known as the Chandler basin. Use and development since the site was purchased in 1959 has been mindful of the flood risk. The proposed Project’s southern portal and associated infrastructure are also located within the Chandler basin a short distance upstream and a little further away from the Yarra River and from Koonung Creek than the Campus. To recap from Carey’s submission, there are a number of key flood related issues for the Bullen Campus. Key issue 1 is changes to the characteristics of Yarra River floods, particularly for those events that occur more frequently and are smaller than (i.e. are not as deep as) the 1% Annual Exceedance Probability Yarra River event; Key issue 2 is changes to the character of Koonung Creek and the resulting changes to flood characteristics in the reach between Bulleen Road and the Creek’s confluence with the Yarra River; Key issue 3 relates to relocation of the Campus access road to the north of its current location.

  • Darley-Power-Fight.Pdf
    Response to the Renewable Energy Zone Development Plan Directions Paper I am contacting you to provide feedback on the State Government of Victoria REZ Development Plan Directions Paper with specific reference to the Western: V3 Project, the Western Victoria Transmission Network Project (WVTNP) North Ballarat to Bulgana. This project involves constructing a 500kV overhead transmission line from North Ballarat to Sydenham. The project has been identified in the REZ Development Plan Directions Paper as having a ‘High Risk’ of delivery for the following reasons: • Project within greenfield area therefore vegetation clearing required. • Infrastructure close to sensitive areas • Conflicting land use • Potential conflicting regarding future residential development. • Potential community concerns regarding increased visual impacts and environmental impacts. The proponent for the WVTNP, AusNet Services, has identified an Area of Interest (AoI) and has further narrowed potential corridors, one of these is immediately north of Darley between existing residential and the Lerderderg State Park. I am the spokesperson for Darley Power Fight, a group representing communities in Darley, Coimadai and Merrimu, Victoria. We are in full support of Renewable Energy Zones provided associated projects are delivered through effective stakeholder consultation with consideration of communities, the environment, and economic impacts. The current regulatory framework does not consider the projects disbenefit and only considers project cost versus economic benefit

  • National Parks Act Annual Report 2019–20 1 Contents
    NATIONAL PARKS ACT ANNUAL REPORT 2019–2020 Traditional Owner Acknowledgement Victoria’s network of parks and reserves form the core of Aboriginal cultural landscapes, which have been modified over many thousands of years of occupation. They are reflections of how Aboriginal people engaged with their world and experienced their surroundings and are the product of thousands of generations of economic activity, material culture and settlement patterns. The landscapes we see today are influenced by the skills, knowledge and activities of Aboriginal land managers. Parks Victoria acknowledges the Traditional Owners of these cultural landscapes, recognising their continuing connection to Victoria’s parks and reserves and their ongoing role in caring for Country.

  • Recreational Activity Surveys During COVID-19 and Comparison with Pre-Lockdown Activity Levels
    More people out on bicycles: Recreational activity surveys during COVID-19 and comparison with pre-lockdown activity levels May 2020 Measuring recreational activity in unprecedented times Lockdown in Victoria On 30 March 2020, the Minister for Health and Medical Research signed an Order for stage 3 lockdown measures to be put in place across Australian states, following a national outbreak of the novel coronavirus. The Order, which in Victoria falls under section 200 of the Public Health and Wellbeing Act (2008)1, 2, places legally enforceable restrictions on all non-essential gatherings, as a means of minimising the spread of the deadly virus. During the stage 3 restrictions, there are only four reasons for Victorian residents to be outside: • purchasing food and essential supplies; • medical, care or compassionate needs; • exercise; and • work and study if they cannot be undertaken remotely2. How has this affected our recreational activities? An arising question is how these restrictions have affected the recreational needs of residents in Victoria and elsewhere. A recent survey by Bicycle Network3 found that, in response to stage 3 restrictions across Australian states: • 73 per cent [of respondents] are planning to use a bicycle to access essential services (shops, healthcare, work and education) in the coming weeks and months; • 84 per cent of healthcare workers said they would ride bicycles more or the same amount; and • Most respondents (39 per cent) said that they will be riding a bicycle outdoors to get their daily exercise. In addition, emerging data suggests an increase in bicycle purchases during lockdown restrictions4. These findings suggest that, given these increased needs for bicycle-related transport, exercise and recreation; Australian roads and shared paths may be exhibiting major deviations from normal bicycle traffic volumes.

    66 Nellie and James streets, at Altona West, to the Kororoit Creek Road at the Ceelong Railway. (See plans, Sheets Xos. 5 and 7.) After crossing the railway and Kororoit Creek Road, it follows the northern side of the railway reserve, absorbing existing planned streets in places,to the intersection of Millers-road and Ross-road. From this point the road would lead north­ easterly direct to the intersection of Bay View-avenue and the Melbourne Williamstown-road at Spotswood. where it joins Arterial Route No. 2 at the gyratory centre planned, where six arterial and main roads converge. (See plan, Sheet No. 1.) It then follows No. 2 Route to Melbourne. Except for the Government Road between Point Cook and the Explosives Reserve, which is retained 66 feet wide, the road has been planned 84 feet wide throughout its 0 miles length to its junction with No. 2 Route at Spotswood. That part of it between Point Cook arid the intersection of Miller's and Ross roads presents practically no difficulty, except for a small section which would have to pass through a vacant subdivision west of Altona. The balance of the route has been aiven a good deal of attention. The plan, Sheet No. 5 shows the position of this arterial route in relation to both existing and proposed conditions. Certain estates along its route had been subdivided just about the time the Commission made known its intentions in this locaUtv. The public-spirited action of the land subdividers concerned enabled the Commission to obtain the replanning of subdivisions which previously had been approved, and sealed by the Werribee Council.

The Gorge is the dominant feature of the 20,180 hectare park which also protects a wide variety of vegetation from fern gullies to dry open forest, colourful displays of spring wildflowers and some interesting relics of early gold mining. Camping O’Briens Crossing and Upper Chadwick Track have designated campgrounds. Walk-in camping is permitted within the Conservation Zone, but n o t e s solid fuel fires are prohibited. Some vehicle based camping is permitted elsewhere in the park. Campers should be prepared for a basic bush camping experience and to be self-sufficient with drinking water. Carry it in and/or know how to make untreated water safe for drinking. Overnight walks, such as down the river from Blackwood to Mackenzies Flat, should only be undertaken by parties of experienced bushwalkers.
