Formerly an independent municipality, Eaglehawk is recognised as a suburb within the City Of Greater Bendigo, with a distinct identity and unique features. Council resolved to undertake an Eaglehawk Township Strategy to consider how it could work more effectively with the Eaglehawk community in the delivery of Council’s services. The Process A draft Eaglehawk Township Strategy was prepared based upon the results of consultation with residents, Councillors and Council staff. The consultation process provided direction to the project, and an understanding of the community’s values and their vision for the future. The consultation included: Surveys circulated throughout the Eaglehawk community; Public forums with interested community members and agencies; Workshops with interest and sector groups, such as the Eaglehawk Business Network and Dahlia & Arts Festival Committee, and with Year 10 students from Eaglehawk Secondary College; Discussions with individual community members; Liaison with other service providers such as the Department of Human Services and Bendigo Community Health; and Meetings with Council Managers and officers to discuss ‘best practice’, priority projects and service delivery and improvement. The draft Strategy was also informed by a review of earlier Council and Borough documents and plans, and by reference to current major strategic plans. This review and cross-referencing has ensured that previous expertise and efforts were recognised and embraced, and that the development of policy is consistent. The draft Eaglehawk Township Strategy proposed “Suggestions for Improvement” related to the people, the place, and the economy based on consultation, research and review. The draft Strategy was placed on public exhibition for one month. The draft Strategy and a summary brochure were distributed to members of the community, and displayed at 6 locations in Eaglehawk. The community was encouraged to provide feedback on the draft Strategy by the inclusion of a “Your Comments” sheet. Twenty-seven comment sheets were returned and an additional nineteen submissions were received. Eaglehawk was the first venue selected for Council’s resident meetings, introduced in 2003, which provided further opportunity for community consultation. The Eaglehawk Township Strategy was presented at this meeting on the 1st of September 2003 and questions about the Strategy were taken from the floor. Outcomes The Eaglehawk Township Strategy contains an Action Plan with recommendations based on the “Suggestions for Improvement” in the draft document. 4 Eaglehawk Township Strategy – December 2003 S:\Eaglehawk Township Plan SU2319\Documents\Final Document\Eaglehawk Township Strategy Adopted 8 December, 2003.doc Eaglehawk Township Strategy The “Suggestions for Improvement” in the draft Strategy were reviewed on the basis of community feedback, feasibility, and resources. For reference purposes the original “Suggestions for Improvement” are included in Appendix 1. The Action Plan articulates goals for the future of Eaglehawk, and matches these against actions that Council will undertake. These goals and actions are considered in terms of their effect on the people, the place, and the economy. The People Mechanisms by which goals will be achieved include: Formation of an Implementation Committee, including Ward Councillor, Council Officer and representative Eaglehawk citizens. The Place Mechanisms by which goals will be achieved include: Enhance High Street through the introduction of banners and dry land planting to the central median strip; Improve pedestrian circulation and vehicular movement in Victoria Street; Enhance Victoria Street through the coordinated use of paving materials, introduction of street tree planting, and the considered location and design of street furniture and signage; and Redevelop Brassey Square as a forecourt to the Eaglehawk Town Hall suitable for an outdoor meeting place and public events venue. The Economy Mechanisms by which goals will be achieved include: Investigate establishment of “attractors” or job generators in Eaglehawk through the proposed Commercial Strategy The complete Action Plan is contained in the final chapter of this document. Implementation The Eaglehawk Township Strategy details Council’s commitment to actions that will be implemented over a timeline of up to 10 years. The proposed Implementation Committee will resolve details and priorities when required. The Implementation Committee will provide a means of accountability and communication with the wider Eaglehawk community. Implementation of the Strategy will be subject to Council’s annual budget process, and funding applications. While this document specifically outlines Council’s future direction, it may signal opportunities not specifically governed by Council. Other community groups may consider responding to these identified opportunities. The plan also references the Department of Human Services “Neighbourhood Renewal Project” being undertaken in east Eaglehawk. There are obvious synergies between the two projects, and efforts will be made to share opportunities for development. 5 Eaglehawk Township Strategy – December 2003 S:\Eaglehawk Township Plan SU2319\Documents\Final Document\Eaglehawk Township Strategy Adopted 8 December, 2003.doc I NTRODUCTION The Eaglehawk Township Strategy has been developed to identify Eaglehawk’s inherent strengths and core values, and to ensure that a coordinated approach to the provision of Council services will facilitate Eaglehawk’s prosperity and vibrancy well into the future. In the past, a multitude and range of planning documents have been developed in relation to Eaglehawk. However, since the change in status from the Borough of Eaglehawk, to the Eaglehawk Ward in the City Of Greater Bendigo in 1994, no overarching strategic framework has been developed for Eaglehawk.

  • 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 Places We Keep: the Heritage Studies of Victoria and Outcomes for Urban Planners
    The places we keep: the heritage studies of Victoria and outcomes for urban planners Robyn Joy Clinch Submitted in total fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Architecture & Planning) June 2012 Faculty of Architecture, Building & Planning The University of Melbourne Abstract The incentive for this thesis that resulted from an investigation into the history of my heritage house, developed from my professional interest in the planning controls on heritage places. This was further motivated by my desire to reinvent my career as an urban planner and to use my professional experience in management, marketing and information technology. As a result, the aim of this thesis was to investigate the relationship between the development of the heritage studies of Victoria and the outcome of those documents on planning decisions made by urban planners. The methods used included a simulated experience that established a methodology for the thesis. In addition, interviews were conducted with experts in the field that provided a context for understanding the influencing factors of when, where, by whom, with what, why and how the studies were conducted. These interviews also contributed to the understanding of how the historical research had been undertaken and used to establish the significance of places and how this translated into outcomes for urban planners. Case studies in the form of Tribunal determinations have been used to illustrate key outcomes for urban planners. A large amount of information including that relating to the historical background of the studies plus a collection of indicative content from over 400 heritage studies was traversed.

History Built in 1935, this church replaced an earlier building erected in 1873 on two acres of CA 1A, Section 4, Parish of Nerring. Reflecting the strong presence in the district of the descendants of the early Irish Catholic pioneers, the church had a large and active congregation until the late 1940s with average attendances dropping to 55 in 1949. Each year parishioners entered a float in the St. Patrick's Day procession in Eaglehawk. The church was widely known for its annual balls and concerts held in the Campbell's Forest hall. Father John Leahy presided over the last mass on 1st February 1971. The building was sold to Des Clark of Bendigo on 17th February 1978 and to Kevin and Judith Smith in 1981.
