Community Pulse Report 2011
Author:
Date: 2011
Abstract: The Community Pulse helps our community to track long term trends on issues that they are passionate about and stimulate broader community awareness and action. The Community Pulse is particularly useful for things that may be changing at a pace that is difficult to detect, such as the gradual erosion of affordable housing. The indicators have targets incorporated into their wording. These targets reflect many of the community aspirations outlined in the City of Port Phillip's Community Plan 2007 – 2017 which have in turn informed the Council’s strategic directions of Engaging and Governing the City, Taking Action on Climate Change, Strengthening our Diverse and Inclusive Community and Enhancing Liveability as set down in the Council Plan 2009 – 2013. Each indicator contains a series of measures. The measures are individual data sets (e.g. ‘penguin population on the St Kilda Breakwater’) that indicate whether we are heading towards or away from sustainability. Measures that are collected regularly are marked in black, those that are yet to be properly established or not included in this year’s cycle are marked in grey. The measures of each indicator are assessed by the Community Pulse Steering Committee, commented on and rated with a smiley, grumpy or indifferent face. Only the information in the measures is considered in making these comments and ratings.
