The Murray River Council Local Government Area (LGA) covers an area of 11,865 square kilometres, is home to some 11,456 residents and has a wealth of physical features including majestic sweeping plains, magnificent stands of Red Gum forests and is almost totally surrounded by the mighty Murray River and its tributaries. It comprises three wards, Moama, Greater Murray and Greater Wakool. Each ward will be represented by three councillors. The main settlements in the council area include: Moama, with a population of 5,560 Barham, with a population of 1,567 Moulamein, with a population of 593 Mathoura, with a population of 1,165 Tooleybuc, with a population of 173 A number of other small rural communities make up the council area including Bunnaloo (population 126), Caldwell (population under 100), Womboota (population 340), Koraleigh (population 276), Goodnight (population 222), Murray Downs (population 144) and Wakool (population 470). 3 Murray River Council · PO Box 21, Mathoura NSW 2710 · p 1300 087 004 · f 03 5884 3417 · e [email protected] · w www.murrayriver.nsw.gov.au Community Engagement Strategy Our communities, committees of council and the council work collaboratively to deliver events, projects and infrastructure for the benefit of the community and council. The Murray River Council LGA is vast and the interests, needs, populations and growth of the various towns and small rural communities making up the council area are diverse. We interact with our communities every day in a range of ways, such as: . Delivering water and sewage services to homes; . Providing community transport services for the aged; . Collecting rates; and . Land use planning and development. Council needs to provide information to, and receive information back from, the community to deliver its services and plan for our future. As our newly formed council grows and develops, effective and ongoing communication and engagement with the communities we serve will be critical to our success. What is community engagement? Community engagement refers to the connections between governments and communities on a range of policy, program and service issues. It encompasses a wide variety of government-community interactions ranging from information sharing to community consultation and, in some instances, active participation in government decision making processes. Engagement can be formal or informal, direct or indirect.1 1 www.communitybuilders.nsw.gov.au 4 Murray River Council · PO Box 21, Mathoura NSW 2710 · p 1300 087 004 · f 03 5884 3417 · e [email protected] · w www.murrayriver.nsw.gov.au Community Engagement Strategy The term community engagement broadly captures public processes in which the general public and other interested parties are invited to contribute to particular proposals or policy changes. Community engagement has the potential to go beyond merely making information available or gathering opinions and attitudes. It entails a more active exchange of information and viewpoints between the sponsoring organisation and the public, however this public is defined.2 Why engage with the community? Increasingly, communities expect to have greater involvement in decisions being made.3 The NSW Office of Local Government (OLG) requires councils to engage with the community to develop their Community Strategic Plan (CSP). Other legislation also requires council to engage with the community to develop plans and strategies. The community is involved in the strategic planning process, including developing alternative strategies, identification of preferred solutions and prioritising activities. Effective community engagement creates a strong partnership between the community and council. Better ways of working with communities leads to good government, good management and good business.4 2 www.iplan.nsw.gov.au Community Planning Toolkit Pp 14 3 www.iplan.nsw.gov.au Community Planning Toolkit 4 Ibid Pp 8 5 Murray River Council · PO Box 21, Mathoura NSW 2710 · p 1300 087 004 · f 03 5884 3417 · e [email protected] · w www.murrayriver.nsw.gov.au Community Engagement Strategy Good community engagement Good community engagement will lead to: . Improved planning and service delivery outcomes; . Better management of projects through all stages of development and delivery; . More resilient relationships with the community; . A greater ability for council to meet local needs in a dynamic environment; . Increased understanding of community issues and priorities; . Improved partnerships and networks; . Greater responsiveness to deal with complex and emerging issues; . Opportunities for the council’s diverse voices and communities to be heard; . Communities having a vehicle to identify priorities and an opportunities to help frame solutions. How and when will council engage? When starting a project or process, we will determine if community engagement is required, by assessing the level of impact that a decision may have on the community and stakeholders. The higher the perceived level of impact the greater the level of community engagement is required. 6 Murray River Council · PO Box 21, Mathoura NSW 2710 · p 1300 087 004 · f 03 5884 3417 · e [email protected] · w www.murrayriver.nsw.gov.au Community Engagement Strategy LEVEL 1 (Low Impact) CRITERIA TO CONSIDER There is a low level of impact or risk (real or .

Introduction Southern Irrigation SOILpak aims to provide a range of best soil management practices to optimise crop and pasture yields. Soils used for irrigation in southern NSW are varied, and this manual identifies five main soil groups. Crop enterprises are also varied. The major irrigated farming systems considered in this manual are (a) rice/rice rotations, (b) summer cropping (excluding rice), (c) winter cropping, and (d) pastures. SOILpak concentrates on the skills needed to: • assess the condition of the soil with emphasis on the cultivation layer (0–10 cm) and the soil profile (0–100 cm) • understand the management options for maintaining or improving soil condition for a particular crop or pasture system. SOILpak does not aim to make the final decision for irrigators. Instead it provides soil management options which can assist irrigators to develop successful soil management strategies.

There is 23.4 pE,r cent. of the area considered good irrigation soil for ucerne, summer and winter pastures, and irrigated s~r fodder crops. The remaining 17.8 i:er cent. is considered suitable for pas­ tures and crops but not economically suitabl3 for the growing of lucerne for hay. Most of the good irrigation soils are confined to the southern portion of the district, the moderate soils to the northern part, while the doubtful irrigation soils comprise the central half of the district.
