ALPINE PLANNING SCHEME 21.03 KEY PLANNING STRATEGIES 25/01/2007 C18 21.03-1 Principles 19/01/2006 VC37 “The fundamental principle guiding future land use planning for the Alpine Shire is that communities can only continue to survive and prosper if they can generate and retain wealth” (Alpine Shire Strategic Land Use Plan, April 1996). The future prosperity of the community is dependant on the effective management of land and the general principles to achieve this were outlined in the Alpine Shire Strategic Land Use Plan as: Maintaining prime agricultural land for future generations. Maximising economic prosperity in balance with minimum environmental degradation. Making the best use of existing development patterns and location of infrastructure. Minimising fossil fuel usage. The general strategic framework for the Shire is that “activity is principally based on the three major townships and the road links between them. These three major centres are then supported by a constellation of smaller settlements” (Alpine Shire Strategic Land Use Plan, April 1996). The Alpine Shire Strategic Land Use Plan outlines the following general strategies for the Shire: The natural environment and the juxtaposition of the components of the natural environment with agriculture, tourism, power generation and urban development is unique to the Alpine shire, its most valuable asset and hence must be recognised. High quality and productive agricultural land is to be protected from inappropriate development. New subdivision in rural areas will require lots to be a minimum of 40 ha in area. Areas subject to environmental constraints (such as flooding, erosion, mass movement, fire hazard etc.) are to be identified and protected from intensive development. -

Alpine Planning Scheme Municipal Strategic Statement
ALPINE PLANNING SCHEME 21.03 KEY PLANNING STRATEGIES 04/10/2012 C31 21.03-1 Alpine Shire Land Use Plan 20/01/2011 C15 Mansfield Shire MUNICIPAL STRATEGIC STATEMENT - CLAUSE 21.03 PAGE 1 OF 53 ALPINE PLANNING SCHEME 21.03-2 Settlement 20/01/2011 C15 Context The Alpine Shire has a good geographic balance of townships located across the municipality. These townships are divided into three categories, based on size, provision of and proximity to services. Towns Bright, Mount Beauty/Tawonga South, Myrtleford. Eighty percent of the Shires population is concentrated in and around these three major towns. They have access to a full complement of physical and community infrastructure and services, a wide range of accommodation, higher order commercial and retail facilities and outstanding recreational opportunities. They each have a village feel and amenity with distinct township boundaries. Villages Bogong, Dederang, Dinner Plain, Harrietville, Porepunkah, Tawonga, Wandiligong. The majority of these villages comprise the catchment for the three main towns of Bright, Mount Beauty and Myrtleford. Porepunkah and part of Tawonga has reticulated sewerage and sewerage treatment is presently being investigated in Harrietville. No other villages are identified in the current Water Plan for investigation of sewerage treatment. They also have limited commercial and community facilities but they generally have a distinct character and physical form. Dinner Plain is an exception to this categorisation due to its alpine location and nature of occupancy and is discussed in Clause 21.03-7. Rural Districts Abbeyards, Barwidgee, Buckland, Buffalo River, Cobungra, Coral Bank, Dangdongadale, Dargo, Eurobin, Freeburgh, Gapsted, Germantown, Glen Creek, Gundowring, Havilah, Kancoona, Kancoona South, Kergunyah South, Merriang South, Mongans Bridge, Mount Buffalo, Mudgegonga, Mullagong, Nug Nug, Ovens, Redbank, Rosewhite, Running Creek, Selwyn, Smoko, Upper Gundowring, Wongungarra, Wonangatta. -
