Bridget Ruff – Social Planning and Development Officer
Bridget introduced herself to the group and explained her position within Council. She also advised that her main responsibility was carriage of the Community Wellbeing Plan. The Community Wellbeing Plan (Municipal Public Health Plan) is a requirement of local government under the Public Health and Wellbeing Act.
Maroondah’s Plan 2013-2017 incorporates two 2 year plans rather than a 4 year plan.
Bridget’s purpose for attending today’s meeting is to consult the group specifically with a lens on disability.
From 112 actions, 58 are complete and 49 are in progress with 5 yet to commence. Of the actions ‘In Progress’ 61% of these actions are reported as being at or above 50% complete.
Bridget outlined relevant disability oriented action items:
Focus Area 2 : An Equitable and Engaged Community
Action Item:
2.1.2 Identify barriers of access to the universal Maternal & Child Health service and implement strategies to increase
participation, especially for vulnerable & disadvantaged families, young parents, CALD & ATSI families.
2.3.1 Develop a HACC Consumer Consultation & Participation Strategy.
2.3.4 Review & develop the Disability Action Plan.
Focus Area 3: Sustainable Built and Natural Environments
Action Item:
3.3.3 Promote the inclusion of Changing Places accessible toilet facilities in key activity centres.
Key facts to note
· Over 30,000 Maroondah residents live with some form of disability (29% of the population)
· 4,689 people or 4.5% of the population in the City of Maroondah in 2011 reported needing help in their day-to-day lives due to disability.
· Approximately 75% of people who need assistance are aged over 65 years
· There are 9,635 carers in Maroondah providing unpaid assistance to a person with a disability, long term illness or old age (9% pop).
· 14% of people in Maroondah seek professional help for a mental health problem.
Collective Impact
‘Collective Impact is a framework for facilitating and achieving large scale social change. It is a structured and disciplined approach to bringing cross-sector organisations together to focus on a common agenda that results in long-lasting change.’
The Collective Impact Framework provides some sophistication to collaboration that is often missing. It provides structures and processes to assist collaboration to succeed and for undertaking collaborative approaches in complex environments.
Liam – Given the CWP (Community Wellbeing Plan) has been evaluated, can we do the same with the Disability Action Plan? Bridget – Yes it can be very easily transferred to look at process, input and outcome.

4. Realm Update
Rhiannon Mahony, Realm Coordinator
Rhiannon Mahony provided an update on Realm to the MDAC group members highlighting features of note.
The opening hours of the library were discussed. These are to be 9am – to 8pm Monday to Friday and 10am – 5pm on weekends.
Briere Kop asked whether or not there would be Wi-Fi and if this was required to be accessed via a password. Rhiannon said that open access is planned and that there are likely to be terms and conditions that would need to be accepted by users.
Jack raised the matter of vision impaired people and their dogs. In particular, that people with assistance dogs will need to toilet their dogs and how this accords with current designs/layouts. Action: Rhiannon to follow up
Fiona raised the issue of whether Customer Service officers would be trained in dealing with specific disabilities (eg the vision impaired and their dogs). Rhiannon acknowledged the issue of staff training, advised that the Realm staff training program was currently being progressed and that the matter would be considered.
5. Update on Disability Travel and Access Project – Geoff Outhred
This item was held over due to the time constraints.
6. Other Business
Fiona distributed hard copies of the Maroondah Disability Policy and Action Plan 2014-2018 printed under the 2040 style guide.
