This item is for improvement works in the Skink Site in Royal Park West. The Friends of Royal Park-Parkville includes in its aims: • To protect and enhance the landscape character of Royal Park and its predominantly indigenous vegetation associations of open woodland, grassland and pockets of wetland. • To protect and enhance biodiversity, habitat and indigenous flora and fauna in Royal Park. A Management Plan for the Royal Park West Skink Site has recently been prepared. The Plan's purpose is to co-ordinate and prioritise works that will protect and enhance the landscape values of the site and, importantly, the habitat values for the 'regionally significant' populations of the small lizard, White's Skink (Egernia whit!!) that occurs in the Royal Park West site (just above the Trin Warren Tam-boore wetlands). In the Management Plan, one of the recommended High Priority items in the first year of the plan is the installation of boulder streams and habitat islands that facilitate ski nk movement across the site ('skink links'). This measure is in keeping with the original concept plans for the site and with recommendations of the expert consultant, Peter Robertson, who has undertaken the ongoing surveys of the White's Skink since 1999. I mportant and long-overdue weed control and revegetation also comprise High Priority works across the site. The $30,000 allocated for program code 13G8109N in the Council's proposed Budget would allow a start to be made to this important project, which we believe is very much in keeping with Royal Park Master Plan objectives, the Melbourne City Council Plan 2013-17 Eco-city goals, Council's Urban Forest and Open Space Strategies and Friends of Royal Park-Parkville aims. 1 Page 4 of 38 To put the funding into perspective, it is our understanding that there have been no Budget funding allocations to specific habitat/biodiversity enhancement projects in Royal Park for around 10 years. We feel that this stands in contrast to the large sums spent on upgrading sporting facilities in Royal Park during that time. In conclusion, we reiterate our strong support for the Skink Site enhancement works' funding as proposed in the 2013-14 Council Budget. Yours sincerely, Ben North Convenor 2 Page 5 of 38 Draft 'Royal Park West: Skink Kite and Creek Management'- Plan Map 4 Map 4. Manbatment • , rain Mama...

The MVS is an integral component in the tourism strategy of this City. It enables visitors to our City to hop on and off at a variety of destinations around the City throughout the course of the day. The fact that it Is a free service enhances the reputation of welcome and hospitality for which this City is renowned. The current service is very well utilised and is a key component of the destination marketing and tourism program of our City. • The Chamber is a major Docklands stakeholder and the peak representative body for business In Docklands. Our members have consistently informed us that the retention of the MVS as a free service is an essential factor In maintaining and driving visitation to the precinct. The Chamber and its member businesses are very concerned that the imposition of a fee on most patrons will have a negative Impact on visitation to the precinct and its economy. The Chamber believes that the Marketing and advertising strategy that is currently employed to defray the cost of providing a free shuttle service could continue to be developed and improved. The Chamber would be happy to contribute to any discussion and efforts to this end. Meanwhile, I thank you for your kind consideration of this Chamber submission to Council that the MVS continue to be retained and supported as a free service by the City of Melbourne. Please note, that I would appreciate the opportunity to speak to this submission at the Future Melbourne Meeting scheduled for 5.30pm, Tuesday 18 June, 2013. Please do not hesitate to contact me on the details below, if necessary 84 to advise If my request to speak to this matter has been granted, Yours truly, Stephen Clement President Docklands Chamber of Commerce Page 7 of 38 Document BrcocSe IlIIIIiII1Ii 111111111111111 ING REAL ESTATE DEVELDPMENT GOV RNOICE SERVICES 4 June 2013 07 ...0.111 1[113 01-'1 OF VAFtlikniiRiC Manager Governance Services City of Melbourne GPO Box 1603 Melbourne VIC 3001 Dear Manager Governance Services, DRAFT ANNUAL PLAN & BUDGET 2013-2014 MELBOURNE VISITOR SHUTTLE We refer to Council's draft Annual Plan and Budget 2013-14, in particular the recommendation associated with the proposed introduction of a daily fee for patrons of the Melbourne Visitor Shuttle (MVS). As a major Docklands stakeholder, we wish to confirm our support for the MVS to remain a free service. The MVS currently provides for a superior and comprehensive visitor experience, while maintaining the free service will support growth in visitation which undoubtedly remains in Council's and the public's interest. The introduction of a fee paying service will without doubt reduce the existing MVS patronage, which will consequently have a negative impact on the local economy, discourage repeat visitation and length of stay, reduce connectivity between and the integration of Docklands with the broader Municipality, and reduce its overall appeal to visitors_ We understand user satisfaction remains high for the existing service as currently structured, while being extremely valued by many in Docklands as it highlights and promotes the precincts numerous positive attributes. There are various foreseeable operational difficulties associated with a fee paying service, in particular selling tickets to the public, including, but not limited to, disrupting the frequency and operational stability of the service; the potential installation, management and servicing of ticket machines; the potential for selling tickets through commission agencies (therefore incurring an additional cost); and requiring drivers to handle cash and/or eftpos machines. Instead, incentives should be provided to the operator to ensure marketing opportunities are continually promoted and encouraged. It is vital that the MVS remain a free, safe and convenient service for tourists and visitors to Melbourne. We seek your assistance and request that Council confirm its ongoing commitment to • subsidise the service, while continuing to implement advertising and promotional opportunities which greatly benefit businesses and destinations on the MVS route and II II I • a - • owth of this important visitor resource.

    Writing to Reach You: The Consumer Music Press and Music Journalism in the UK and Australia Marc Brennan, BA (Hons) Creative Industries Research and Applications Centre (CIRAC) Thesis Submitted for the Completion of Doctor of Philosophy (Creative Industries), 2005 Writing to Reach You Keywords Journalism, Performance, Readerships, Music, Consumers, Frameworks, Publishing, Dialogue, Genre, Branding Consumption, Production, Internet, Customisation, Personalisation, Fragmentation Writing to Reach You: The Consumer Music Press and Music Journalism in the UK and Australia The music press and music journalism are rarely subjected to substantial academic investigation. Analysis of journalism often focuses on the production of news across various platforms to understand the nature of politics and public debate in the contemporary era. But it is not possible, nor is it necessary, to analyse all emerging forms of journalism in the same way for they usually serve quite different purposes. Music journalism, for example, offers consumer guidance based on the creation and maintenance of a relationship between reader and writer. By focusing on the changing aspects of this relationship, an analysis of music journalism gives us an understanding of the changing nature of media production, media texts and media readerships. Music journalism is dialogue. It is a dialogue produced within particular critical frameworks that speak to different readers of the music press in different ways. These frameworks are continually evolving and reflect the broader social trajectory in which music journalism operates. Importantly, the evolving nature of music journalism reveals much about the changing consumption of popular music. Different types of consumers respond to different types of guidance that employ a variety of critical approaches.

During the skating season we hear that many facilities are utilizing all of their prime ice time and that is music to our ears! However this also means it would be hard to find time to train your staff especially on the ice. So utilize some of that free up ice time in the summer to spend time working with your operations staff on things like edging, ice maintenance, ice depth readings and the dreaded "what happens when the ice resurfacer stalls on the ice" scenerio!

  • The History of Roadrunner (1978-83)
    THE HISTORY OF ROADRUNNER (1978-83) By Donald Robertson Synopsis This is the story of how an Adelaide punk fanzine blossomed into a well-loved national music magazine that chronicled the glory days of Australian post-punk and ‘pub rock’ music in the period 1978-83. The do-it-yourself ethos espoused by the UK punk movement in the mid-1970s was strongly felt in Australia and inspired bands to form, play live and record and release their own records. The concurrent expansion of live music venues across the country (mainly pubs) meant more bands could live, work and play. Roadrunner was also very much a product of this do-it-yourself ethos. From the bunch of evangelical music fans and writers who initially came together, some left and others joined and as those involved became more technically proficient the magazine developed and grew. With no financial backing (until the final despairing issue), Roadrunner survived for five years due to the combination of a posse of enthusiastic (and usually unpaid) contributors, a creative and understanding production crew, a sympathetic printer, the support of key music industry personalities and— perhaps most important of all—a small but dedicated readership. In 2017, the University of Wollongong in New South Wales made all 48 issues of Roadrunner available in a digital archive (at http://ro.uow.edu.au/roadrunner/). The History of Roadrunner 1 IntroduCtion When Martin Sharp, the internationally acclaimed Australian artist, died in 2013, I read that the University of Wollongong had created a digital archive of the Sydney and London Oz magazines that he was such a part of.
