For General distribution - re-posting encouraged! Dear friends, I am sending you this note to let you know about the VLGA (Victorian Local Governance Association) web site at: http://home.vicnet.net.au/~viclga/ I am aware that this is an unsolicited mail and would appreciate if you could let me know if you do not wish to receive updates about this site in the future. VLGA has been very busy lately with input into legislative changes, working with the MAV on the Code of Good Governance and the proposed new panel, organising Conferences and Courses, and responding to the needs of it's members. Much of this work (the paper version) can be found on the web site. VLGA has endeavored to make information about it's activities accessible to it's members and wider community via this site and we sincerely hope it'll be of assistance to you as individuals, Councils, Councillors and community groups. If you have visited the site before then you may wish to start with 'What's New', at: http://home.vicnet.net.au/~viclga/new.html If you are looking for specific information it might be best to skip over to the 'Site map', at: http://home.vicnet.net.au/~viclga/sitemap.html Want to know more about the forthcoming Course for candidates and councillors: Becoming an Effective Councillor, December 1998 Program - check out: http://home.vicnet.net.au/~viclga/Course.html Curious about which Councils are VLGA members? Then see: http://home.vicnet.net.au/~viclga/links.html This page will also take you to their respective web sites. If you'd like to see, or use VLGA's media releases then go over to: http://home.vicnet.net.au/~viclga/Media.html Perhaps you'd like to read our latest newsletter, Local Democracy? We'd like you to join VLGA but we have made our newsletter accessible to you anyway, see: http://home.vicnet.net.au/~viclga/LocalDemocracy.html Want to join us? See: http://home.vicnet.net.au/~viclga/index.htm And how about providing us with some feedback? We'd love to hear from you and have placed a page up for your responses. Sadly, as it's only a day old it's a bit empty ): Help us fill it! ..and come back to check, at: http://home.vicnet.net.au/~viclga/feedback.html There's a lot more on our web site that you may find useful, but I won't bore you now, I know you are busy being active in whatever you have chosen to participate in, so until next time....
