  • The Dying Town Syndrome1:A Survey of Urban Development in the Western District of Victoria 1830-1930
    EJANZH: Articles: Keneley on Urban Development in the Western Districts of Victor... Page 1 of 9 The Dying Town Syndrome1:A Survey of Urban Development in the Western District of Victoria 1830-1930. Monica Keneley, School of Accounting, Economics and Finance, Deakin University, P.O. Box 423, Warrnambool 3280, Australia. Email: [email protected] Introduction Recent debate surrounding the future of country towns has raised the issue of the historical process of growth and decline in the small towns which service rural communities.2 To many, the current deterioration of country towns is symptomatic of the dominance of large urban centres and the indifference and neglect of government. The debate has generated many emotive responses which indicate that the underlying long term causes of decline are not fully understood.3 Viewed from an historical perspective it becomes clear that what may appear as a recent and worrying trend has been in fact been an intrinsic feature of regional development. An illustration of this can be seen in the history of urban growth in the Western District of Victoria. The pattern of development in this region suggests that the prosperity of small towns is linked to the nature of land settlement and use in the surrounding area. This in turn is influenced by the economic and technological factors operating at the time. At times these factors have supported growth and expansion in small towns. For the most part though, these forces have not been conducive to promoting long term urban prosperity. Thus a cycle of growth and decline occurs. This experience is not a unique feature of Western District history.

  • Exploring the Coastal & Volcanic Landscapes of Victoria's Western
    From Seafarers to Pastoralists: Exploring the Coastal & Volcanic Landscapes of Victoria’s Western District – October 2021 18 OCT – 26 OCT 2021 Code: 22172AU Tour Leaders Christine Reid, Emeritus Professor Harriet Edquist AM Physical Ratings With Christine Reid, an internationally recognised garden writer and historian, explore the history of 'Australia Felix', the name Thomas Mitchell gave to the lush pastures of western Victoria. Overview Nineteenth-century Scottish ‘pastoralists’ in Western Victoria were responsible for one of the most extraordinary episodes in Australian architectural history, the ‘Western District homestead’, which has almost legendary status in Victoria. In a relatively short space of time, from the 1840s to the 1880s, they commissioned hundreds of homesteads, station outbuildings and associated structures to house their burgeoning enterprises. Through these settlements they produced a tight network of family, community and business interests extending from one end of the District to the other and they transformed themselves from economic adventurers into a powerful social and political elite. Harriet Edquist, 'The Architectural Legacy of the Scots in the Western District of Victoria, Australia', Architectural Heritage XXIV (2013): 67–85 ASA wishes to thank the wonderful hosts we will be meeting during this tour, who through opening their gates, are supporting local charities. Travel with Christine Reid, an internationally recognised garden writer and historian who has a long association with the Western District. Learn about architectural legacy of the Scots in the Western District from our guest lecturer, Emeritus Professor Harriet Edquist AM, who will be joining the tour for the first 6 days. Harriet has researched the European settlement of the Western District for over two decades, revealing the impact of the Scottish diaspora, the role of the whaling industry in the development of colonial architecture and the dynastic ambitions of settlers such as the Learmonth family.

  • Ararat Rural City Council Welcomes the Opportunity to Provide Feedback on the Councils and Emergency Directions Paper
    Our Ref: 17083122 Ararat Rural City your location of choice 5 May 2017 Corner Vincent & Councils and emergencies directions paper consultation Local Government High Streets, Ararat PO Box 246 Victoria Ararat, Victoria Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning PO Box 500 Australia 3377 Melbourne VIC 3002 (03) 5355 0200 [email protected] E:[email protected] www.ararat.vic.gov.au To Whom It May Concern RE: Submission to Councils and Emergency Directions Paper Ararat Rural City Council welcomes the opportunity to provide feedback on the Councils and Emergency Directions Paper. Council also wishes to reinforce through our submission the challenges facing the sector and in particular regional and rural Councils with very high Council and community expectations operating within very constrained and restrictive environments. As a fundamental principle Councils are not funded and do not necessarily have the expertise to supply response services as emergency response agencies do. If Council does respond then it carries the cost of this if it occurs during business hours. When these expenses are incurred they have a ripple effect on Council's ability to perform its normal business. The effect of this will increase time to recovery, as the Council will have lost the capacity to provide services to the community. This principle is further developed and articulated throughout our response attached. I look forward to the next steps in progressing this and the other Emergency Management related works and being involved in their further development, especially in rectifying the MERP funding inequity that exists. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you require any clarification to the submission or if you have any other queries.
