President Darryl Johnston opened the Meeting and welcomed our guest presenter, Damien Haas. Apologies: Greg Downing, Brendan Smyth MLA, Martin Devine, Rusty Woodward. Confirmation of Minutes of February 2011 Meeting: Accepted: Jan Petrie Seconded: Dugald Holmes Matters Arising from February 2011 Meeting: No matters were raised by members. President’s Report (Mr Darryl Johnston): President, Darryl Johnston presented the following Report: “Welcome to another meeting of the Tuggeranong Community Council. Much has been going on behind the scenes this past month. The TCC Executive has engaged local firm and one of our supporters, Sozo, to design a new TCC website. It will remain at the same address and TCC Executive members will, with a bit of training, manage the site. It is envisaged that the new website will have a new look and feel and will be easier to navigate and access information, especially for the disabled and those unfamiliar with the web. At the last TCC Executive meeting, Executive members were further briefed on proposals for the development of land opposite Bunnings. It is proposed to site housing for more than 2,000 new residents and develop a café/restaurant strip on the lake shores. The TCC plans to host a special public meeting in early April on this issue and the Tuggeranong/Erindale Master Plans. I hope that you have all received a copy of the Tuggeranong Community Council’s new newsletter, Valley Voice. It is the first in what I hope will be one of many issues to come.

  • YRA President's Report (19 September 2017)
    PRESIDENT’S REPORT ‐ YARRALUMLA RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION Annual General Meeting 19 September 2017 The YRA started the same year as Floriade, so we will be 30 next year. We had 150 financial members at the end of June 2017 including household members and individual members. If we assume 2 members for each household, we had 256 members at the end of June 2017. The YRA is represented by a committee of up to 13 members. We had a change in the committee following the last AGM. Former President Robyn Cooper stepped down in late 2016, but we were pleased to welcome Marea Fatseas back. I would like to thank Robyn for her contribution to the YRA over many years. The YRA is fortunate to have a very strong committee. Past President Marea Fatseas, our treasurer David Johnston, Paul Flanagan and myself have represented the YRA on the Brickworks Community Panel since it started in November 2015. Margaret Pentony was also an alternate member of the panel up until the most recent stage. Vice President Mike Lewis and our Public Officer Diana Wright have been willing and able to look at some other issues affecting Yarralumla that would have been overlooked otherwise. All committee members have contributed in their own way and I thank them all. It is important to remember that the YRA is a volunteer organisation and everyone contributes to the extent they are able. We unfortunately do not have the capacity to deal with all the issues, but we try our hardest. I would also like to point out that some of us have day jobs and active social lives.

  • The ACT Election 2016: Back to the Future?
    The ACT election 2016: back to the future? Terry Giesecke 17 February 2017 DOI: 10.4225/50/58a623512b6e6 Disclaimer: The opinions expressed in this paper are the author's own and do not necessarily reflect the view of APO. Copyright/Creative commons license: Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial 3.0 (CC BY-NC 3.0 AU) 12 pages Overview This resource is a summary of the outcome of the ACT election, held in October 2016. It was an unusual election, in that it saw little movement in party support from the previous election in 2012 and no fringe parties or candidates were elected. The main issues were the construction of a tramline, the implementation of tax reform, the demolition of over one thousand houses to resolve asbestos contamination and allegations of corruption. The ACT Election 2016: Back to the future? The ACT election on October 15 was more of a 1950s or 1960s election. In that era little movement occurred from one election to the next. In 1967 political scientist Don Aitkin wrote, “Most Australians have a basic commitment to one or other of the major parties, and very few change their mind from one election to the other”1. Not so today. In the last few years Australia has experienced three one term State/Territory Governments, huge swings from election to election and the rapid rise and fall of new parties. So why was the ACT different? The ACT election saw a swing of 0.5 per cent against the governing ALP and their partner the Greens and a 2.2 per cent swing against the opposition Liberals.
