It describes the methodology employed in the Bendigo Heritage Policy Citations Review (generally referred to below as the ‘Citations Review’), specifically the approach taken to the assessment and documentation of places of potential heritage significance listed at Clause 22.06 of the Greater Bendigo Planning Scheme (see Appendix A). A copy of the Project Brief is also attached to this report. A separate report (Volume 2) includes citations prepared by Lovell Chen, as a result of the Citations Review. Citations were completed for heritage places recommended for inclusion in the Schedule to the Heritage Overlay, as well as for places not recommended. This is explained in more detail below at Section 5.0, with a summary of the places for which citations have been prepared at Section 5.1.1. In addition a citation was prepared for one property recommended for inclusion in the Victorian Heritage Inventory and not the Heritage Overlay (see Section 3.2). 1.1 Background to Citation Review In 2010, Lovell Chen Architects & Heritage Consultants was engaged by the City of Greater Bendigo to undertake a review of the heritage places listed at Clause 22.06 (‘Heritage Policy’) of the Greater Bendigo Planning Scheme. Core objectives of the study were: · to assess and document the places of local and potential State significance to a standard that satisfies the requirements of a Planning Scheme amendment; · to identify any further work that may be required; and · to input the final data into Heritage Victoria’s HERMES database. 1.1.1 Previous studies In 1993, the (then) Rural City of Marong engaged heritage consultant Andrew Ward to conduct a preliminary heritage assessment of the municipality, with the objective being to identify potential places of post-contact cultural significance. The preliminary assessment identified 284 sites of potential heritage value.1 Ward recommended that data sheets (citations) be prepared for 100 of the identified sites.2 This recommendation essentially formed the core component of the Stage 2 Heritage Study, prepared by Andrew Ward, in association with RPD Group (TBA Planners P/L), Dr Peter Milner and Olsen, Wilkens & Associates, in 1999, although the majority of citations from that study are dated 1998.3 By that time, the majority of the former municipality of Marong had been amalgamated into the City of Greater Bendigo, with an area to the west of the former municipality being placed within the new Loddon Shire. Recommendations of the Stage 2 Heritage Study included the nomination of some of the sites to the Victorian Heritage Register (VHR), with others recommended for inclusion in the (then) Australian Heritage Commission Register of the National Estate, and the Schedule to the Heritage Overlay of the City of Greater Bendigo 1 The Stage 1 report also identified one ‘urban conservation area’, four landscapes and 59 mining sites of potential cultural heritage significance. The mining sites were identified by David Bannear. See, Historic Mining Sites in the Sandhurst, Eaglehawk and Raywood Mining Divisions, prepared by David Bannear, May 1993. 2 Draft City of Greater Bendigo (Marong District) Heritage Study: Stage One Report, Andrew Ward, August 1994, unpaginated. 3 City of Greater Bendigo (Marong) Heritage Study, prepared by Andrew Ward, TBA Planners and Peter Milner, March 1999. LOVELL CHEN 1 Planning Scheme.4 The Register of the National Estate is being phased out, and will cease to function as a register (to which places are added) in 2012. 1.1.2 Clause 22.06 ‘Heritage Policy’ The ‘Heritage Policy’ to the City of Greater Bendigo Planning Scheme (Clause 22.06) establishes the policy basis and objectives as they relate to places identified at Clause 43.01 ‘Heritage Overlay,’ including site-specific Heritage Overlays and sites within a Heritage Overlay precinct. Clause 22.06 also establishes a suite of policies, including the requirement that: Buildings, places or sites not specified in the Heritage Overlay but listed in the attached table are considered to have cultural heritage significance [see Appendix A]. The decision to include these heritage places (x 95) in the local heritage policy, but not in the Schedule to the Heritage Overlay, was taken by the Panel and Advisory Committee established to consider the new format Greater Bendigo Planning Scheme in 1998. The panel issued its report in January 1999, having held a directions hearing at City of Bendigo Offices on 28 September 1998, followed by public hearings in October 1998. The panel noted that: A comprehensive heritage study of the whole municipality is not available, however studies have been undertaken in the former municipalities of Bendigo and Eaglehawk. An indicative study titled – Draft City of Greater Bendigo (Marong District) Heritage Study: Stage One Report is available. The city proposes to rectify the gaps in heritage information by undertaking studies of the Heathcote and Strathfieldsaye districts next year. The balance of the City including Huntly is also scheduled for further study. This works should be identified in the MSS … The Panel has suggested that consideration should be given to developing a local policy listing places of known heritage value which have not been included in the heritage overlay or for which citations have not been completed, to highlight the relevance of consideration of heritage values where a permit is required by other scheme provisions …5 Of the sites listed at Clause 22.06, the majority (x 83) are located within the former municipality of Marong. Citations were prepared for all of these sites as part of the City of Greater Bendigo (Marong) Heritage Study (1999), by Andrew Ward et al, and each was given a ‘proposed map reference’ (i.e.‘HO311’). The latter consultants also gave each of these sites a reference determined by the location (i.e. places in Woodvale were designated ‘W1,’ ‘W2’, etc). These previous citations form the basis of the current Citations Review, and for consistency and clarity, the references adopted for the 1999 study have also been retained in the current study, cited in this report, and reproduced in the new citations. The remaining 12 sites listed at Clause 22.06 (i.e. of the 95 cited above) were located in different areas of the present City of Greater Bendigo (i.e. outside Marong), and comprise a range of places, including sites of potential geological and indigenous significance. 4 City of Greater Bendigo (Marong) Heritage Study, prepared by Andrew Ward, TBA Planners and Peter Milner, March 1999, pp. 14-20. 5 Greater Bendigo, New Format Planning Scheme, Report of the Panel and Advisory Committee, January 1999, p12.

It covered an area of 1,488.93 sq km, from the Bendigo urban area in the east, to the Loddon River in the west; and from the former Ravenswood (Mount Alexander) Run in the south, to Raywood in the north (Figure 1).

LOVELL CHEN 3 The municipality was established following a public meeting held in Eaglehawk on 18 June 1861, at which local landholders petitioned for the establishment of a District Road Board.6 Local government commenced with the creation of the Marong Road District on 27 August 1861.

  • SCG Victorian Councils Post Amalgamation
    Analysis of Victorian Councils Post Amalgamation September 2019 spence-consulting.com Spence Consulting 2 Analysis of Victorian Councils Post Amalgamation Analysis by Gavin Mahoney, September 2019 It’s been over 20 years since the historic Victorian Council amalgamations that saw the sacking of 1600 elected Councillors, the elimination of 210 Councils and the creation of 78 new Councils through an amalgamation process with each new entity being governed by State appointed Commissioners. The Borough of Queenscliffe went through the process unchanged and the Rural City of Benalla and the Shire of Mansfield after initially being amalgamated into the Shire of Delatite came into existence in 2002. A new City of Sunbury was proposed to be created from part of the City of Hume after the 2016 Council elections, but this was abandoned by the Victorian Government in October 2015. The amalgamation process and in particular the sacking of a democratically elected Council was referred to by some as revolutionary whilst regarded as a massacre by others. On the sacking of the Melbourne City Council, Cr Tim Costello, Mayor of St Kilda in 1993 said “ I personally think it’s a drastic and savage thing to sack a democratically elected Council. Before any such move is undertaken, there should be questions asked of what the real point of sacking them is”. Whilst Cr Liana Thompson Mayor of Port Melbourne at the time logically observed that “As an immutable principle, local government should be democratic like other forms of government and, therefore the State Government should not be able to dismiss any local Council without a ratepayers’ referendum.

The level of information provided varies from municipality to municipality. Estimates of Councils’ Receipts and Expenditure are often given. How the Rate Books are generally arranged: These records were created annually, often arranged by streets within Council Wards or Ridings. Sometimes streets were arranged alphabetically, but more often they were arranged according to an established route taken by the Council’s Valuer. In the latter case, it is common for entries for each property to be allocated a consecutive rate (or assessment) number which reflects the particular route taken. The rate numbers usually changed each year due to the addition or removal of rateable properties along the route. How to Use the Rate Books: Determine the Local Government area your land or building was originally located in. This is important as the present day City of Greater Bendigo was formed in 1994 after the amalgamation of the City of Bendigo (formerly Sandhurst), the Rural City of Marong, the Borough of Eaglehawk, and the Shires of Huntly, Strathfieldsaye and McIvor.

  • Chapter 1: Overview
    CHAPTER 1: OVERVIEW • The Bracks Labor Government’s first budget delivers its output election commitments in full with $426 million in new output initiatives to improve services to all Victorians, within a responsible financial framework. • Consistent with the Government’s commitment to responsible financial management, a substantial operating surplus of $592 million is forecast for 2000-01. • Continued substantial operating surpluses will result in budget sector net financial liabilities falling from 10.9 per cent of GSP as at 30 June 1999 to 7.7 per cent as at June 2004, and state government net debt declining from $6.2 billion to $4.7 billion. • The Government will take advantage of the strong budget position in 1999-2000 to establish a $1 billion infrastructure reserve, Growing Victoria, to boost infrastructure spending by an additional 20 per cent over the next four years. • Business taxes will be reduced by a minimum of $200 million by July 2003, including $100 million from July 2001, subject to the maintenance of a substantial operating surplus of at least $100 million. This will keep Victoria’s taxes broadly in line with the national average and below New South Wales. Details of the business tax cuts will be determined following a review of Victoria’s tax system, to be completed by the end of 2000. • New infrastructure projects with a total estimated cost of $987 million will commence in 2000-01 to provide new and better schools, hospitals, transport and other community facilities. Total spending on the net purchase of fixed assets in 2000-01 will be $1 152 million.
