This is the personal blog of Ian Ker, who was Councillor for the South Ward of the Town of Vincent from 1995 to 2009. I have been a resident of this area since 1985. This blog was originally conceived as a way of letting residents of Vincent know what I have been doing and sharing thoughts on important issues. I can now use it to sound off about things that concern me.

If you want to contact me, my e-mail is still ian_ker@hotmail.com or post a comment on this blog.

The Fine-grain of Communities is Important

I've mentioned the importance of detail before (http://ianrker-vincent.blogspot.com.au/2013/09/is-this-vincent-or-perth.html). It seems that others have similar concerns, including likely 'disengagement' of councillors as they battle to deal with big-picture issues.

Do you want your 'local' councillors to be unaware of (or not have the time to think about) the issues that directly affect you in your local community? If your councillors don't have the time to care, no one else will.
