The city is expected to experience solid growth in the future generating a demand for new dwellings of between 225 and 258 per annum. b) Dwelling growth is expected to be met by a range of dwelling typologies with high and medium density dwellings, conventional density development and rural-residential development combining to satisfy the city’s housing needs. Rural-residential growth, which is accommodated in the Low Density Zone and Rural Living Zone, can be expected to comprise between 5% and 7.5% of future housing needs, depending on the availability of supply. This equates to a need for between 11 and 19 lots per annum depending on the demand scenario adopted.

Our school staff regularly combine for Team and Woodford professional learning opportunities to increase the teaching skills of local teachers. Primary School Principal Each of our local schools plays a significant role in the everyday lives of families in the Warrnambool and surrounding area. On most days schools are full of happy and enthusiastic students, but there are occasions when a school may find itself dealing with incidents of trauma in the local community. In times of need the Warrnambool Network is able to offer a range of support to schools. Teachers, Principals and Support Staff are able to be quickly ‘loaned’ to a school in need of specialised support during incidents of trauma. Our specialised School Support network staff (psychologists, social workers) are also able to be placed into schools to support teachers, students and families.

  • 21.05 SETTLEMENT and HOUSING Overview the Moyne Shire Is Made
    MOYNE PLANNING SCHEME 21.05 SETTLEMENT AND HOUSING //20 C48 Overview The Moyne Shire is made up of large tracts of rural areas and a number of towns and settlements. The predominant service centres in the Moyne Shire are Port Fairy, Koroit and Mortlake. Port Fairy is an historic coastal town that offers a high quality of life for its residents and is a popular tourist destination. Koroit is located near Tower Hill State Game Reserve and was originally established as a rural service town in which a major diary processing plant operated by Murray Goulburn is located on the edge of the urban area of the town. Mortlake is the main town and service centre in the northern part of the municipality. It is a major council service centre and has good road access to surrounding regional centres including Warrnambool. There is a regional quarry nearby. A 550 megawatt (MW) gas-fired power station is operational 12 km west of the town. Hawkesdale, Peterborough, Macarthur and other small service towns located throughout the Shire also provide a focus for much of the population. There are also a number of smaller settlements or rural hamlets including Caramut, Woolsthorpe, Woorndoo, Panmure, Garvoc, Kirkstall, Killarney, Cudgee, Nullawarre, Purnim, Yambuk, Orford and Framlingham. The historical townships and rural hamlets within the Shire give it a distinctive character. Population characteristics As noted in 21.02 the Shire’s overall population has undergone gradual decline since 1981. This is reflected by the 1981, 1986, 1991 and 1996 Census which recorded permanent populations of 16,806, 16038, 16142 and 15,894 respectively for the area now encompassed by the Shire.

  • 21.08 INFRASTRUCTURE and PARTICULAR USES Overview
    MOYNE PLANNING SCHEME 21.08 INFRASTRUCTURE AND PARTICULAR USES 06/09/2007 C17 Overview Moyne has a number of major highways, rail lines and other transport facilities that provide excellent transportation options within the Shire and to other areas and centres. The national highway traverses the southern section of the Shire, linking the municipality with Melbourne and Adelaide and the regional centres of Portland and Colac. The Hopkins and Hamilton Highways are important roads within the Shire for internal travel and for connection to Hamilton and Warrnambool. There are numerous other main roads that provide transport corridors for passenger and freight purposes. The Great Ocean Road is a major tourist asset that runs from the south east corner of the Shire to the Princes Highway, immediately north of the Cheese and Butter factory at Allansford. A passenger rail service operates from the Warrnambool and Terang stations providing three services each day to and from Melbourne. A regional airport facility also operates within the Shire. Water Domestic water supply for the townships is presently provided by the following water authorities using ground water or lake supplies: Portland Coast Region Water Authority serves Port Fairy; South West Water Authority serves Mortlake, Koroit, Caramut, Purnim, Peterborough and Allansford; and The Glenelg Region Water Authority supplies water to Macarthur. South West Water advises that alternative bore sites are presently being examined for Mortlake due to the increasing salts content of the existing supply. Ultimately this may require that Mortlake be supplied from the Otway system. As far as Koroit is concerned, it is proposed to connect to the Warrnambool system in 5-6 years time.

  • Nirranda Strewnfield Australites, South-East of Warrnambool, Western Victoria
    Memoirs of the National Museum of Victoria January 1956 https://doi.org/10.24199/j.mmv.1956.20.02 NIRRANDA STREWNFIELD AUSTRALITES, SOUTH-EAST OF WARRNAMBOOL, WESTERN VICTORIA By George Baker, M.Sc. List of Contents Foreword. Introduction. Distribution and Concentration. Forms of Australites Represented. Size, Weight and Specific Gravity. Fracture and Fragmentation. Sculpture Patterns and Etching Effects. Bubble Pits. Flow Ridges. Flow Lines. Grooves. Optical Properties. Chemical Composition. Curvature and Relationships of Surfaces. Origin of the Shapes of Australites. Effects of Aerodynamical Flow-Phenomena during Ultra-supersonic Flight. Conclusions. Acknowledgments. Description of Plates. References. Foreword The Nirranda Strewnfield australites have been discovered at a time when much additional knowledge of the location, concentration density, fragmentation, etching propensities, specific gravity, shape and size variation, sculpture patterns, &c, of south-western Victorian australites has been accumulated, and can thus be applied to the study of this latest discovery, which embraces a considerable number of different forms of australites from a relatively small concentration centre in the vast Australian tektite strewnfield. Much of the propounded theory of tektite origin is, of necessity, based largely upon conjecture and supposition. After some 150 years of the study of tektites by renowned scientists in various parts of the world, the tektite question as a whole is still remote from an entirely satisfactory solution, it is with this long background of accumulated fact and theory to hand, 60 NIRRANDA STREWNFIELD AUSTRALITES associated with an awareness of the important recent advances that have been made in the realm of the aerodynamics of high-speed flow, that the writer feels justified in indicating' the need for a detailed study of the geometry of the remarkably symmetrical anstralite varieties of tektites, and in suggesting that their typical secondary shapes as derived from primary forms can he explained in terms of gas dynamics.
