Macedon Ranges Planning Scheme Local Planning Policies MACEDON RANGES PLANNING SCHEME 22.02 TOWNSHIPS 19/01/2006 VC37 This policy contains the following sub-clauses: 22.02-1 General 22.02-2 Gisborne Township 22.02-3 Woodend Township 22.02-4 Kyneton Township 22.02-5 Riddells Creek Township 22.02-6 Romsey Township 22.02-7 Lancefield Township 22.02-8 Mount Macedon Township 22.02-9 Macedon Township 22.02-10 Malmsbury Township LOCAL PLANNING POLICIES - CLAUSE 22.02 PAGE 1 OF 27 MACEDON RANGES PLANNING SCHEME 22.02-1 GENERAL 19/01/2006 VC37 This policy applies to all the townships throughout the Shire. Policy Basis The Municipal Strategic Statement describes the Shire’s settlement pattern as being characterised by a range of different sized townships offering a variety of residential lifestyles. Each town performs a role according to its size, functions and the range of available services. Objectives To provide a high quality urban environment and encourage the consolidation of existing township areas by maximising development opportunities within these areas. To establish an urban edge to all settlements based on current zonings and urban growth boundaries, to lessen conflict in rural areas between agriculture and non-agricultural land uses. To concentrate future urban growth and development within townships with reticulated infrastructure, including water, sewerage and stormwater drainage. To recognise that areas of Gisborne, Woodend, Riddells Creek, Macedon and Mount Macedon have limits to growth due to landscape, environmental, flooding and/or drainage constraints and that areas of Romsey may have salinity constraints. Policy It is policy that: New residential use and development will be encouraged to locate in urban centres and towns within urban growth boundaries. Extension of infrastructure services and urban use and development outside identified urban growth boundaries will be strongly discouraged. Rezoning of land for urban purposes outside the urban growth boundary will need to demonstrate that alternative suitable locations are not available. Until sewerage infrastructure is supplied to currently unsewered towns, development will be limited to infill areas, dependent on the ability of sites to accommodate and treat effluent. Land in agricultural production will be protected from adjoining use and development that is inconsistent or incompatible with normal farming practices. Zoning will be used to provide a clear urban boundary. Serviced residential expansion will be encouraged at locations to achieve cost efficient infrastructure provision, and integration of new residential areas with established urban areas and facilities. Medium density housing based on Clause 55 will encourage mix of housing types. Development proposals are to demonstrate how the landscape character of the Shire’s towns and significant landmarks, and heritage and natural features are to be protected. Low-density residential development will be provided for and encouraged at locations that will not prejudice opportunities for future serviced residential expansion. LOCAL PLANNING POLICIES - CLAUSE 22.02 PAGE 2 OF 27 MACEDON RANGES PLANNING SCHEME 22.02-2 GISBORNE TOWNSHIP 19/01/2006 VC37 This policy applies to the use and development of land within Gisborne township and environs as shown on the Gisborne Township Structure Plan attached to this local policy. Role and Character Gisborne is a major urban centre and coupled with New Gisborne has a population of 5,290 persons at 2001. Gisborne is a centre with well-established community infrastructure. High levels of commuting and attractive living environments also define the role of Gisborne. Gisborne’s character is defined by the following elements: Village character in a rural and forest setting with the majority of its development centred in a valley setting. Heritage buildings and streetscapes in the town centre and within residential areas. Network of open space areas focusing on the Jackson’s Creek. An industrial base providing local employment opportunities. Significant outlook to prominent landscape features. Diversity of residential precincts based on residential layout, lot design and housing styles. Objectives To reinforce the key urban functions and role of Gisborne as a major township in the Shire. To provide clear limits to population and physical urban growth of the township. To ensure that development occurs in a sequential manner allowing for efficient provision of development infrastructure. To recognise that population growth and changes to age and household structure creates demand for wider housing choice, urban consolidation and infill of vacant serviced residential zoned land and the provision of community facilities. To protect the urban and landscape elements that contribute to Gisborne’s image as a village in a rural landscape. To ensure that new urban development is of a low profile and compatible with the landscape qualities of the area. Policy It is policy that The location, form and design of new development in the township is to be consistent with the Policy Reference Documents. The town centre is to retain its existing compact form. Proposals for new commercial and business developments that retain this compact form and avoid expansion along major entry roads will be supported. Design and siting of new residential development that protects and enhances existing landscape character, visual amenity, and prominent view lines will be supported. Proposals for new development must demonstrate how existing areas of native vegetation and plantings of exotic trees are to be integrated into new developments. LOCAL PLANNING POLICIES - CLAUSE 22.02 PAGE 3 OF 27 MACEDON RANGES PLANNING SCHEME Proposals for new residential subdivisions must address issues relating to the sequence of development. Subdivision that requires ‘leapfrogging’ of services or subdivision that cannot be fully serviced at the time of development will be strongly discouraged. Any subdivision within the area known as the Gisborne Rise Estate (area bounded by Brooking Road, Mt Gisborne Road, Brady Road and the northern boundaries of the properties off Jonathon Road and Reeve Court) is to be in accord with the provisions of the proposed Macedon Ranges Industrial/Residential Review 1999, in so far as this review relates to that land.

Role and Character Woodend is a major urban centre with a population of 2,980 persons at 1996. The range of town centre services and community facilities support its role as a major urban centre. Limited growth can only occur in the township due to environmental and infrastructure constraints. Woodend’s character is defined by the following elements: Township setting in a valley surrounded by forest and bushland areas. Significant views of Mt. Macedon and Hanging Rock. Historic buildings and streetscapes. Wide main street through the commercial centre. Close proximity to forests particularly identification with the northern end of Black Forest. Significant portion of Woodend’s development is forested low density development. Objectives To reinforce key urban functions and the role of Woodend as a major township in the Shire. To recognise that limits to the growth of Woodend need to be established based on protecting the landscape, environmental and lifestyle qualities and infrastructure limitations. To protect Woodend’s landscape and townscape character. Policy It is policy that: Use and development of land in the township and environs that protects and adds to the landscape and urban character of the township will be supported. The Woodend by-pass forms a new edge to the township and provide a future direction for the expansion of the urban area. This matter will be addressed in the Residential/Industrial Review proposed for 1999/2000. New development and general directions and locations for urban expansion and infill development are to be consistent with the policy reference documents. The town centre is to retain its existing compact form. Proposals for new commercial and business development that retain this compact form and avoid expansion along major entry roads will be supported.

  • 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.

  • The Places We Keep: the Heritage Studies of Victoria and Outcomes for Urban Planners
    The places we keep: the heritage studies of Victoria and outcomes for urban planners Robyn Joy Clinch Submitted in total fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Architecture & Planning) June 2012 Faculty of Architecture, Building & Planning The University of Melbourne Abstract The incentive for this thesis that resulted from an investigation into the history of my heritage house, developed from my professional interest in the planning controls on heritage places. This was further motivated by my desire to reinvent my career as an urban planner and to use my professional experience in management, marketing and information technology. As a result, the aim of this thesis was to investigate the relationship between the development of the heritage studies of Victoria and the outcome of those documents on planning decisions made by urban planners. The methods used included a simulated experience that established a methodology for the thesis. In addition, interviews were conducted with experts in the field that provided a context for understanding the influencing factors of when, where, by whom, with what, why and how the studies were conducted. These interviews also contributed to the understanding of how the historical research had been undertaken and used to establish the significance of places and how this translated into outcomes for urban planners. Case studies in the form of Tribunal determinations have been used to illustrate key outcomes for urban planners. A large amount of information including that relating to the historical background of the studies plus a collection of indicative content from over 400 heritage studies was traversed.

  • Victorian Community History Awards 2020
    Victorian Community History Awards 2020 Proudly participating in History Month Victorian Premier’s History Award This award recognises the most outstanding community history project in any category. Born in Hamburg in 1835, Charles Troedel became an apprentice lithographer to his father before being recruited to Melbourne by a Norwegian printer. Troedel founded his own business in 1863 and attracted praise for The Melbourne Album, which is reproduced here. A master of lithography, the technique of printing on stone which transformed the production of graphic arts, Troedel gained great success in commercial advertising. He employed notable artists to design thousands of posters, labels, letterheads, business cards and programmes. Amanda Scandamaglia’s elegant book is based on the huge Troedel archive in the State Library of Victoria. She skillfully places Troedel’s work in an Australian and international context without losing sight of the firm’s Melbourne base and city clients such as Guest’s Biscuits, the Carlton Brewery, fashion houses, theatres and sporting clubs. This book is in part a history of 19th century Australian advertising ‘through the lens of the lithograph’. Advertising both reflected and promoted social trends such as alcohol consumption, smoking and the obsession with cleanliness. Then as now, technological breakthroughs, in this case lithography, affected social patterns. Above all, this is a commercial, social and cultural history, written in a scholarly style but with strong popular appeal. Highly original, this book is visually superb and endlessly fascinating. Printed on Stone: The Lithographs of Charles Troedel Amanda Scardamaglia Melbourne Books, Melbourne, 2020 2 3 Judges’ Special Prize Collaborative Community History Award The judges can award a special prize for any outstanding entry outside of This award recognises the best community collaborative work which established categories.
