2015 Local Government Ordinary Elections Report
2015 Local Government Ordinary Elections Election Report April 2016 W ESTERN AUSTRALIAN Electoral Commission Foreword At the October 2015 local government ordinary elections, the Western Australian Electoral Commission was contracted to manage the largest number of postal elections it had ever conducted. In addition to six in person elections, the Commission was asked to run 82 postal elections under the Local Government Act 1995. With voting in local government elections being non-compulsory in Western Australia, postal elections typically result in a higher participation rate by eligible electors than in person ballots, as they offer most electors greater convenience and accessibility. Making the Electoral Commissioner responsible for these elections also enables local government CEOs and staff to remain at arms-length from potentially contentious aspects of the electoral process. Since they were first trialled in 1995, the number of local governments adopting postal elections has progressively increased. The local governments deciding to conduct a postal election in 2015 comprised some 1,433,575 electors, which is about 98% of the State’s total number of eligible electors. At the close of nominations, 964 candidates had nominated for 419 vacancies resulting in 75 separate postal elections. The highest participation rate for postal elections, both for country and metropolitan local governments in 2015 was the Shire of Mt Marshall with 82.7% and the City of Perth with 37.8%, with an overall Statewide participation rate of 27.5%. I would like to acknowledge the efforts of all returning officers and Commission staff in the planning and conduct of the 2015 ordinary elections and each of the local governments for the assistance and cooperation provided by their staff. -

Implementation Strategies for a Heritage Trail That Would Link the Great Southern Shires in Western Australia
PROJECT # 31009 Implementation strategies for a heritage trail that would link the Great Southern Shires in Western Australia The “Heritage of Endeavour” project. By Michael Hughes and Jim Macbeth ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost, we acknowledge the contribution of Lindley Chandler to this final report. Lindley undertook this project as part of her Masters degree and carried out all of the basic ground work and community consultation. Unfortunately, due to ill health, Lindley was unable to write the final report. Nonetheless, the report is based on her work in the Central Great Southern. Russell Pritchard, Regional Officer with the Great Southern Development Commission, provided invaluable advice and support in further developing and crystallising the ideas within this report. Many other Central Great Southern community members contributed information as detailed in the reference list at the end of the report. The authors also acknowledge the support of the Sustainable Tourism Cooperative Research Centre, an Australian Government initiative, in funding this project.
