Clarence City Council Area – Community/Household Food Access Profile
CLARENCE CITY COUNCIL AREA – COMMUNITY/HOUSEHOLD FOOD ACCESS PROFILE Introduction & disclaimer – This profile have been developed by the Heart Foundation Tasmania as part of the Healthy Food Access Tasmania Project. The information highlighted in this profile was gathered in 2014/15 and it provides an overview for the local government area. For any questions or additional information please contact the Heart Foundation. Why does access to healthy food matter? Limited or poor access to healthy food has both health and social outcomes for people who are struggling with this issue. There are many health conditions and diseases associated with or caused by a poor diet resulting from poor economic or physical access to healthy food. The diseases include heart disease1, diabetes2, some cancers3, and other health conditions such as overweight4 and obesity5. Poor access to healthy food can cause poor physical development in children and impact their learning and attendance at school6. For adults who have poor access to healthy food it is often very stressful and causes them to be anxious and ashamed7. This often also means they avoid social occasions in their communities and with family so can become socially isolated8. How are the residents of Clarence doing? Currently only 49% of adults living in Clarence eat the recommended 2 piece of fruit per day and 8.3 % eat the recommended 5 serves of vegetables. This compares with 42% and 9.8% state averages. Clarence Residents are unfortunately eating slightly less fruit and vegetables in 2013 when compared with 20099. For adults living in Clarence 18.5 % are obese (state average 23%)9 and 16 % report that their health is poor or fair versus (19% state average)10.

Adapting to Climate Change in the Coastal Zone in Western Australia
Faculty of Humanities Curtin University Sustainability Policy Institute Adapting to Climate Change in the Coastal Zone in Western Australia: Meanings, Dimensions, Effectiveness and Shortfalls of Collaborative Coastal Adaptation Planning Chiara Danese Galano This thesis is presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Curtin University August 2017 Declaration of Originality To the best of my knowledge and belief this thesis contains no material previously published by any other person except where due acknowledgment has been made. This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma in any university. The proposed research study received human research ethics approval from the Curtin University Human Research Ethics Committee (EC00262), Approval Number HR129/2010. Chiara Danese Friday 10 March 2017 2 Abstract In Australia, the coast is an important ecological, cultural, economic and community asset. The potential impacts of climate change on the coast is a critical issue for local councils who, as the closest level of government to the community, are required to play a key role in coastal adaptation planning. To meet the challenges of implementing such complex, complicated and resource intensive processes, and to overcome the inadequacy of traditional governance systems, collaborative arrangements between central and local governments in the form of voluntary partnerships have been become a popular means to plan for coastal adaptation. However, the important role of collaborative governance warrants closer examination in the academic literature; the pitfalls of technical approaches to coastal adaptation planning are the current focus. Thus, while collaboration has been instrumental in improving climate risk knowledge and progressing coastal adaptation decision making, the meanings, dimensions, effectiveness and shortfalls of collaborative coastal adaptation planning needs further analysis.

The increased volumes of traffic and prolongation of the peak traffic periods at either end of the working day, on the key transportcorridors of greater Hobart, have become apparent to most road users. Council considered your invitation to make a submission at the meeting of 30 September 2019 and the following advice is provided in accordance with the Select Committee's Terms of Reference. 1. The scope of Greater Hobart's traffic congestion and its impact on the community and economy Council provides the following comments: • Increasing trafficcongestion is occurring across the Greater Hobart area, both in peak trafficvolumes and the duration of peak flow times. Key transport links are very susceptible to system shocks, such as crashes or vehicle breakdowns. This is an indicator that these routes are operating at capacity during peak times and relatively minor disruptions can significantly increase delays. The negative impacts on the community and economy include lost time and lost productivity; increased crashes, and escalating costs due to time, and freight delays, increased fuel use, loss of public transport efficiency and general frustration and anxiety for travellers.
