The Planning and Environment (Planning Schemes) Act 1996, an amendment to the Planning and Environment Act 1987, enabled the reform of the structure of planning schemes in Victoria, provided for the preparation of municipal strategic statements and provided for the making of the Victoria Planning Provisions (VPP).

The Victoria Planning Provisions form the basis of a consistent and co-ordinated framework for planning schemes in Victoria. Under the provisions of the legislation, local councils were required to prepare new-format planning schemes based on the structure and content of the Victoria Planning Provisions (located in VPRS 16204).

A Ministerial Direction to all planning authorities on "The Form and Content of Planning Schemes" provided guidance in the preparation of the VPP based planning schemes.

The components of the Victoria Planning Provisions were:

- Objectives of planning in Victoria
- Purposes of this planning scheme
- Table of Contents
- User guide
- State Planning Policy Framework
- Standard zones
- Overlays
- Particular Provisions
- General Provisions
- Definitions
- Incorporated Documents
- List of Amendments.

The Local Planning Policy Framework component - comprising of the Municipal Strategic Statement and specific local policies set a local and strategic policy context for the municipality.

The exhibited new format planning scheme maps applied the standardised zones and overlays selected from the Victoria Planning Provisions. (Refer to VPRS 16223).

Following the review and restructure of local government in Victoria and the subsequent reduction in the number of local government municipalities (1994-1995), some newly created councils prepared Amalgamation Amendments in order to consolidate all planning schemes within their restructured municipal boundaries. Former planning schemes were re-titled as chapters of an amalgamated planning scheme. Alternatively, councils became the responsible authority for the operation of existing planning schemes within a restructured local government area.

Researchers may refer to "New Patterns in Local Government: A guide to Victoria's new councils", published by Office of Local Government, September 1995 (available at PROV's Reading Room at North Melbourne).

Refer to VPRS 16204 Amalgamation Amendments / Ordinance.
Refer to VPRS 16155 Amalgamation Amendments / Maps.

The VPP format planning schemes are based on the municipalities created following the restructure of local government in Victoria.

During the period 1997-1998 all new format VPP-based planning schemes were placed on public exhibition with the Department of Infrastructure (D.O.I.). Following the requisite public exhibition period the exhibited documents were retained by the D.O.I. and subsequently by the Built Environment Division of the Department of Sustainability and Environment.

Abstract

This dataset and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are presented here as originally supplied.

Polygon data delineating modelled statistical flood extent with an Average Recurrence Interval (ARI) of 100 years. For historical/actual flood extents, refer to 'Historic_extent' layer. Also known as the 1 in 100 year flood layer, it is used, among other things, in the creation of 'Land Subject to Inundation' areas as used in Planning Scheme Zones. The 1 in 100 year data is not restricted. This data is part of a group of layers depicting a range of statistical ARI extents. Current layers include 5, 10, 20, 30, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000 year intervals, each in a separate dataset. The layer called EXTENT_PMF represents areas of 'probable maximum flood' and is also part of this group. The data is statistically derived using hydrological models, historic flood extents and heights.

Purpose

Mainly used for municipal planning and risk assessment. The EXTENT_100Y_ARI layer is deemed the most appropriate to use for determining areas at risk of flooding. This layer directly inputs into the Land Subject to Inundation overlay. (LSIO)

Dataset History

Lineage: Primary

Positional Accuracy: Precision: 5m to 100m Initial data, flagged as 'modified = 20000101' varies in accuracy, and should be treated with caution, particularly at scales less than 1:25,000. Data with 'modified' values later than 20000101 are quite accurate and mostly sourced from flood studies. This data is suitable to use at township and parcel level. Reliability field provides clues to the accuracy, where a value of 1 is best and 3 is worst.

Attribute Accuracy: Attributes are verified and should be accurate. Overall reliability of the source material is indicated in RELIABILITY field, where 'HIGH' is good and 'LOW' is poor quality source information.

Logical Consistency: Attributes are consistent with other related layers e.g. flood height contours

Data Source: Flood data dates back to mid 1800s and historically has been predominantly located in DNRE Floodplain Management. Some data is located in Water Authorities.

Completeness: Floodplain Management Unit mapping conventions on definitions of flood mapping height data will be followed.

Additional Metadata: Recommend liaison with Floodplain Management Unit to clarify use of this layer

Refer to mapping reports for each major data capture effort to be kept at DNRE Floodplain Management Unit.

Under the provisions of the Town and Country Planning Act 1944, municipalities were required to prepare Planning Schemes for the Minister's approval. The Act provided for Interim Development Orders (IDO's) to regulate development until a Planning Scheme was finalised.

All planning schemes consisted of maps and ordinances. The planning scheme maps showed the zones and overlays that applied to land covered by the scheme, and the written documentation/ordinance set out the statutory requirements of the policies, zones and overlays described on the planning scheme or I.D.O. map.

This series contains Country Victoria Planning Schemes and IDO maps and approved map amendments for the period 1946 to Day One, 16 February 1988.

Refer to VPRS 16156 for relevant Planning Scheme Ordinances, Interim Development Order provisions and approved Amendments.

The planning scheme records were maintained by the Plan Inspection Section of the Town and Country Planning Board (VA 516) and subsequently by the Department of Planning (VA 599) and the Ministry for Planning and Environment (VA 1024). The Plan Inspection officers were responsible for ensuring that the statutory procedures required by the Town and Country Planning Act for Planning Schemes, Interim Development Order and Amendments were accurately recorded on the Planning Scheme Record Cards (VPRS 16121). Planning Schemes and IDO's prepared by municipal councils, (Country Victoria) were submitted to the Minister for review by the Town and Country Planning Board and for approval by the Governor in Council.

Many of the maps in the series were hand-drafted and coloured, paper or linen-based. Some maps have been damaged by heavy use over many years. Map amendments were recorded by manual notation or photocopied attachments to the original map.

Maps, Ordinance and Amendments prepared by the Melbourne and Metropolitan Board of Works (MMBW, VA 1007) relating to the Melbourne and Metropolitan Planning Scheme were maintained separately, (located in VPRS 16157 and VPRS 16158).

P1 Consignment
Approved maps are located in the P1 consignment of this series.

P2 Consignment
The P2 consignment contains the pre Day One, 16 February 1988 Country Victoria Planning Scheme / Interim Development Order maps used as templates.

To facilitate the production of state-wide Day One Planning Scheme maps, the Land Information Branch of the Ministry for Planning and Environment at times used pre-Day One maps as templates for the preparation of Planning Scheme maps to be approved under the Planning and Environment Act 1987, 16 February 1988.

Example: Former Title: Shire of Maffra Planning Scheme (Balance of Shire) has been masked by adhesive label, re-titling the map set Maffra Planning Scheme Local Section Chapter Four - Balance of Shire.

Former Title: Shire of Traralgon Planning Scheme/Interim Development Order has been masked by adhesive label, re-titling the map set Traralgon (Shire) Planning Scheme Local Section Chapter One.

The new titles conformed to the requirements of the Planning and Environment Act 1987.

Significant changes to the structure of Statutory Planning in Victoria were implemented with the approval of the Planning & Environment Act 1987 (Government Gazette, 16 February 1988).

Following proclamation of the Act all planning controls (Planning Schemes/Interim Development Orders) made under the provisions of the Town and Country Planning Act were revoked and replaced by municipality-based planning schemes, planning schemes applying to the whole of a municipality and part of Port Phillip Bay and regional planning schemes.

Country Victoria:
Planning Schemes and Interim Development Orders in operation within a municipality were consolidated into a single planning scheme under the title of the particular local government area.

Metropolitan Region:
The Melbourne Metropolitan Planning Scheme (Refer to Melbourne Metropolitan Board of Works, VA 1007) was replaced by individual municipality-based planning schemes.

The term "Day One" summarizes the structural changes introduced by the Planning and Environment Act 1987 on 16 February 1988. For a detailed summary of the functions undertaken by the Act refer to the administrative history of the Department of Planning (VA 599).

The term "Day Two" summarizes the structural and content changes to all Victorian planning schemes at the gazettal of amendments on the 30 October 1989. The amendments introduced subdivision provisions in the State, Regional and Local Sections of all planning schemes and restructured and re-wrote planning schemes in the Metropolitan Region in accordance with plain English principles.

Relevant Country Victoria and Metropolitan Region Planning Scheme maps are located in VPRS 16155.

Amalgamation Amendments:
Following the review and restructure of local government in Victoria and the subsequent reduction in the number of local government areas (1994-1995), some newly created councils prepared Amalgamation Amendments in order to consolidate all planning schemes within their restructured municipal boundaries. Former planning schemes were re-titled as chapters of an amalgamated planning scheme. Alternatively, councils became the responsible authority for the operation of existing planning schemes within a restructured local government area.

-VPRS 16157 Melbourne Metropolitan Planning Scheme Maps, Interim Development Orders, Modifications and Amendments (1954 - 1988).

Planning Schemes consist of both maps and ordinance. Planning Scheme maps show the zones and overlays that apply to land covered by the scheme, and the written information or ordinance sets out the statutory planning requirements of the policies, zones and overlays described on a Planning Scheme Map.

Accurate coastal wave and hydrodynamic modelling relies on quality bathymetric input. Many national scale modelling studies, hindcast and forecast products, have, or are currently using a 2009 digital elevation model (DEM), which does not include recently available bathymetric surveys and is now out of date. There are immediate needs for an updated national product, preceding the delivery of the AusSeabed program’s Global Multi-Resolution Topography for Australian coastal and ocean models. There are also challenges in stitching coarse resolution DEMs, which are often too shallow where they meet high-resolution information (e.g. LiDAR surveys) and require supervised/manual modifications (e.g. NSW, Perth, and Portland VIC bathymetries). This report updates the 2009 topography and bathymetry with a selection of nearshore surveys and demonstrates where the 2009 dataset and nearshore bathymetries do not matchup. Lineage: All of the datasets listed in Table 1 (see supporting files) were used in previous CSIRO internal projects or download from online data portals and processed using QGIS and R’s ‘raster’ package. The Perth LiDAR surveys were provided as points and gridded in R using raster::rasterFromXYZ(). The Macquarie Harbour contour lines were regridded in QGIS using the TIN interpolator. Each dataset was mapped with an accompanying Type Identifier (TID) following the conventions of the GEBCO dataset. The mapping went through several iterations, at each iteration the blending was checked for inconstancy, i.e., where the GA250m DEM was too shallow when it met the high-resolution LiDAR surveys. QGIS v3.16.4 was used to draw masks over inconstant blending and GA250 values falling within the mask and between two depths were assigned NA (no-data). LiDAR datasets were projected to +proj=longlat +datum=WGS84 +no_defs using raster::projectRaster(), resampled to the GA250 grid using raster::resample() and then merged with raster::merge(). Nearest neighbour resampling was performed for all datasets except for GEBCO ~500m product, which used the bilinear method. The order of the mapping overlay is sequential from TID = 1 being the base, through to 107, where 0 is the gap filled values.

Permissions are required for all code and internal datasets (Contact Julian OGrady).
