The purpose of the Study is to complete the identification, assessment and documentation of places of post-contact cultural significance within Corangamite Shire, excluding the town of Camperdown (the study area) and to make recommendations for their future conservation. This volume contains the Reviewed and Revised Thematic Environmental History. It should be read in conjunction with Volumes 1 & 2 of the Study, which contain the following: • Volume 1. Overview, Methodology & Recommendations • Volume 2. Citations for Precincts, Individual Places and Cultural Landscapes This document was reviewed and revised by Ray Tonkin and Samantha Westbrooke in July 2013 as part of the completion of the Corangamite Heritage Study, Stage 2. This was a task required by the brief for the Stage 2 study and was designed to ensure that the findings of the Stage 2 study were incorporated into the final version of the Thematic Environmental History. The revision largely amounts to the addition of material to supplement certain themes and the addition of further examples of places that illustrate those themes. There has also been a significant re-formatting of the document. Most of the original version was presented in a landscape format.

  • 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.

    LOCAL PROVISION CORANGAMITE PLANNING SCHEME 21 MUNICIPAL STRATEGIC STATEMENT 21.01 MUNICIPAL PROFILE The Corangamite Shire was formed in September 1994 and comprises the former municipalities of the Town of Camperdown, the Shires of Hampden and Heytesbury, part of the Shire of Otway, and small parts of the Shires of Mortlake and Warrnambool. It has an area of 4,357 square kilometres, and extends approximately 120km north to south and 45 km east to west. Corangamite Shire is part of the Western District of Victoria. It lies between the Glenelg Highway in the north and the Great Ocean Road in the south. It is also traversed in an east- west direction by the Hamilton and Princes Highways. These highways are important links to major centres of population at Geelong to the east, Ballarat to the north east, and Hamilton and Warrnambool to the west. The topography of the Shire is variable. In the north, there are relatively flat plains with a large number of lakes that are part of a system that has international significance. The volcanic cones in the centre of the Shire are also significant. In the south, the landscape is more undulating. The coastline is a key feature of the Shire and the offshore rock formations, which include the Twelve Apostles, attract large numbers of tourists. Population The Shire had an estimated resident population in 1996 of 17,934. Camperdown is the largest township in the Shire with a population of 3,153 [1996 census]. The next largest townships are Terang [1,897] and Cobden [1,408].

  • 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.

    CORANGAMITE PLANNING SCHEME 21.04 OBJECTIVES, STRATEGY AND IMPLEMENTATION 19/01/2006 VC37 21.04-1 Settlement 28/09/2006 C13 Camperdown Overview Camperdown is one of Victoria’s most important heritage towns. Mt. Leura forms an impressive backdrop to the town and the Lake Gnotuk and Lake Bullen Merri complex to the west of the town contribute to its unique natural context. Historical features of the township, including the clock tower, post office and railway station, which all make a contribution to the townscape composition. The heritage elements of the town are described extensively in the Willingham, A. (1995) Camperdown Heritage Study - Assessment of Places of Cultural Significance in the Town of Camperdown, Study Findings and Final Report, Volume 1. Camperdown is the largest town within the shire with a population of 3153 and it also the main commercial, industrial and administrative centre in the shire. Its regional competitors for commercial and industrial development are Colac and Warrnambool. With declining population being a widespread factor within this shire, consolidation and improvements to existing urban, commercial and industrial precincts is required, before any expansion of these established precincts is considered. Camperdown at present has an urban land supply of approximately 200 years. Issues Completion of a heritage study for all buildings within the urban area Protection of heritage places and buildings Excess urban land supply and population decline Consolidation of existing business, industrial and urban areas
