@chriswalsh008 Sports club in WA did this for a Council when upgrading a playing surface. Lots of other examples. Just needs strong governance around both parties and clear roles and responsibilities

Has anybody ever heard of a town or committee taking on the responsibility of ‘project management’ when it comes to a council project? Long story but don’t want to see $100k wasted in overheads.

@CorbinSchuster Unfortunately repeated in WA rural towns. Reflection of society: not engaged in their future, understanding how rural towns were built and lack of role models - we learnt to volunteer by watching our parents and being concerned for others. Competing commitments is also an issue.

Bit of a rant. Our local rural town, like many others in regional Australia, has undergone somewhat rapid population growth (doubled) in the last decade thanks to subdivisions, new estates etc. You're now greeted with a lot of new, fresh faces whenever you venture in to town. A growing town, vibrancy, energy....great right? Well... Despite this increase in population, local community organisations and committees are struggling to find volunteers to continue operating. Counter-intuitively, it seems like apathy and disinterest in the local community has increased as the population has increased...probably more correlation than causation. 2 pertinent examples...there are many more. First, the local institute/town hall, after 120 years of continual operation, has been unable to form a volunteer committee to oversee management...despite a 10x increase in population from when the building was constructed to now. Second, (this occurred tonight and is half the reason for the post) the local council/government held a community forum on their strategic plan for the next 4 years, a blueprint for where we want the town/region to go. It was well advertised in the community, well set up... Only 3 people from the town turned up - myself, my old man and another guy whose sole motivation to attend was to complain about potholes. It's like no one gives a flying f***. Have the majority of people just become robots? Wake up, go to work, come home, TV, then go to sleep...then repeat for 40 years without a thought to what's happening in the immediate world around you. Unsure what's going on.

The Federal Government wants to shut down an industry that could cost the WA economy $128m. Thanks NEWROC for taking the report to Canberra and standing up for your communities. Article: tinyurl.com/42xabbvs NEWROC report: newroc.com.au/economic-impac… #keepthesheep
