Introduction Wellington Shire Council recognises that community facilities make a fundamental contribution to our communities, enabling a wide range of social connection opportunities. These facilities provide a space for groups to interact, which promotes social cohesion, community connections, participation and ownership. They also provide suitable spaces to deliver services, programs and activities to meet the social needs of the community and build community capacity. For this reason Council will provide support to community facilities whereby: - Council owns or controls the land; - Council owns or controls other assets on the land; - Council has specific legal agreements; - Facilities are under control of Committee of Management appointed pursuant to the provisions of the Crown Land Reserves Act 1978; At present Council either provides or supports, a network of over 200 community facilities throughout the Shire for the benefit of the broader community. For the purposes of this framework community facilities are defined as venues and spaces for services, activity and action by community-based service providers, groups and individuals to meet the social, cultural, leisure, community wellbeing and developmental needs of the Wellington community and its visitors. The scope of ‘community facilities’ will be defined as, but not be limited to the following: - public halls - galleries - recreation reserves - childcare centres - kindergartens - senior citizens centres - libraries - museums - neighbourhood/community houses - playgrounds - stadiums - boating facilities - aquatic centres - club houses - other sporting and cultural facilities As per Council Policy 5.3 (Council Provision of Recreation/Cultural Facilities), Council provision for the support of most community facilities is based on a four tiered hierarchy: Level 1 - regional, state significance facilities; Level 2 - district significance facilities; Level 3 - local significance facilities; Level 4 - local facilities. Page | 2 The concept of a facility hierarchy acknowledges the need for a strategic compromise between infrastructure demand and supply within Wellington. All community facilities throughout the Shire have been categorised accordingly based upon: - population catchment - capacity of facility - level of primary service and/or use. 2. Aim The Wellington Community Facilities Framework (2016) aims to ensure that community facilities within the municipality continue to meet the expectations and needs of all current and future residents, both in terms of infrastructure requirements and service provision. The framework also provides an over-arching review and assessment of the current provision of community facilities, whilst identifying a strategic framework to guide decision- making activities regarding the provision of integrated and accessible community facilities that meet the needs of all residents. This includes decisions relating to: - Council’s service level planning - investment in infrastructure - maintenance funding - the ongoing sustainability of facilities - subsidy and grant funding 3. Guiding Principles There are a range of Guiding Principles that will be considered to enable consistent Council decision making in relation to community facilities. The Community Facilities Framework is based upon the concept that equity and transparency are essential components of the administration of support to facilities to achieve the best possible community outcomes. The following guiding principles will provide key direction to Council’s planning activities regarding the timely provision of integrated and accessible community facilities that meet the needs of all residents. Page | 3 3.1 Community Engagement A commitment to community engagement will ensure communities are appropriately involved in all aspects of decision making in relation to community facilities. The key elements of this Guiding Principle are defined below. - The community is to be involved in the planning, design, operation and management of facilities. - Community engagement is considered a vital component in identification of community aspirations and the clarification of current and future community needs. 3.2 Community Benefit and Wellbeing Improvements in health and wellbeing can take a long time and involve a complex range of factors. To ensure that the development of community facilities will benefit the community and contribute to residents’ quality of life and wellbeing: - Facilities will address targeted local needs, interests and the desired social outcomes of the community. - Facilities will be co-located to accommodate diverse groups, maximise activity and integrate service provision where synergies exist. - Facilities will be flexible to promote multi-use. Traditionally facilities have been purpose built for specific community use or interests. This approach leads to singular use of a facility by a particular group and creates a false sense of ownership. Page | 4 - To ensure the broadest possible use of community facilities by a range of groups and services, Council will plan for and design facilities that are multipurpose in nature and meet the needs and interests of people across the life-span. 3.3 Access, Inclusion and Equity During the planning stages of community facility development, there will be a focussed effort to reduce barriers for people with diverse abilities. In order to achieve this, the following principles will be taken into consideration: - Facilities will be accessible, inclusive and equitable, providing for the whole community. - Facilities will be developed in alignment with Universal Design Principles to enhance accessibility for the whole community. - Facilities will be equitably delivered across the municipality based on identified community needs. - Facilities will be welcoming and inclusive of all people within the community including people of differing ages, abilities, income levels, cultural backgrounds and interests. - It is imperative to ensure that people of all abilities have equal opportunities to access and utilise community

  • 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.

I Dear Mr. Minister, Re: CITY OF SALE I REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF CITY BOUNDARIES I The Council of the City of Sale hereby makes application for the extension of its municipal area by the annexation of portions of the surrounding Shires of Avon and Rosedale pursuant to Sec. 23 (I) (b) of the Local Government Act. The boundaries of these areas are described in the I attachment. The area requested for addition to the City has been determined as a result of an assessment of future growth and is not an attempt to only annexe an area already receiving the overspill of development. It is an are·a large enough to control all growth requirements for up to I 20 years at present rates of growth and as such is an alternative to more frequent requests for small-scale addltions to the City which usually characterise requests of this type. The request is based on the understanding of the immedi·ate and future development demands of a rapidly growing City.
