NEW GARBAGE SYSIEAI APPROVED Garbage disposal has become a major issue within the community of late and the Caulfield City Coun­ cil acknowledges its responsibilities in this area. Local Government is charged with the collection and removal of waste materials but is constantly faced with spiralling costs and other problems. The City of Caulfield in recognising the difficulties involved is moving into the 80's with a new concept in garbage disposal - a total waste col­ lection service.

  • Bibliography 2
    BIBLIOGRAPHY 2 BIBLIOGRAPHY This bibliography attempts to focus on public domain groundwater pollution investigations carried out in the State of Victoria. The compilation should enable access to much of the work funded by government that is available in the open file systems. The principal source of open file information is the DNRE GSV Library that contains the unpublished reports of the Geological Survey. Groundwater pollution investigations were carried out by the GSV in the period between 1962 - 1988. The GSV reports date back to the 1850's and include a considerable amount of associated geological reference material, such as data on quarry and mine sites used for waste disposal. The reports topics cover mining, geology, land systems, quarries and mine shafts. Many disposal sites have been described in open file documents before waste disposal operations commenced. Some EIL data may be accessed through the DNRE Minerals and Petroleum GEDIS exploration database. A second source of groundwater pollution information up to 1992 is the reports of the Rural Water Commission (Corporation) and later Hydrotechnology. The reports are now lodged with the State Library. From 1992 onwards the DNRE library holds copies of groundwater reports carried out under government services contract, they appear in the Groundwater Report series ISSN 1328-4495. The following compilation is recognised as not a complete compendium of reports or data. There are many extremely valuable and important consultant reports that are not in the public domain and that have not been exhibited in a public forum. In some instances consultants reports may be accessed through the transcripts of the hearings of the Appeals Tribunals (TCPAB, AAT or VCAT) or those lodged with government departments may be accessed by FOI request.

Our weekly venue, the Village Green Hotel in Mulgrave has closed it’s doors in order to conform to the strict social distancing requirements imposed on our community by the Victorian Government. In addition, social gatherings have been restricted to people who normally live together and more importantly, people over the age of 70 have been actively discouraged from leaving their homes during the pandemic. With effect from March 2020, we now meet in the virtual world of ZOOM every other Monday at 7pm. Invitations to attend are sent out by our Secretary to all members in advance of the planned ZOOM meeting. This new meeting format enables our Club to conduct it’s business and review progress on initiatives both current and planned but without the physical social interaction and dinner that we normally enjoy. Future developments with regard to the COVID-19 restrictions and it’s impact on our Club will be advised through the Club Bulletin. In the meantime, enjoy recent articles of interest. Mutunyi Farmers Training Centre Matching District Grant, Progress Report at July 2020 The fruits of this program are continued to appear. We set out with the aim to have this project meet the need to train subsistence farmers with the skills to produce food.

  • 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.

Development in the industrial and business areas has resulted in a distinctive Garden City Character. Monash City Council commissioned the Urban Character Study (1997) to identify and evaluate urban character within the City and to develop strategies for its management. This was originally documented in the Monash Urban Character Study- Volumes 1 & 2, (Gerner, 1997), which identified five (5) industrial character types, containing twenty (20) precincts, and three (3) business character types, containing five (5) precincts across Monash. The Municipal Strategic Statement recognises the significance of these areas and the importance of maintaining and enhancing the Garden City Character, continuing its significance in defining the character of Monash.
