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.

It's Official - City of Perth ONLY Wants Businesses

What more is there to say! Those pesky PEOPLE who live near and are affected by the great City of Perth might actually contribute to a more rounded view of what constitutes a community.

This view seems, at first sight, to be in conflict with the City of Perth's own statement that "the residential rate is set at a relatively low level……to support the City's aim of encouraging people to reside in the City". Presumably there are limits on how many people the City of Perth wants to live in the City - enough to provide customers for businesses but not so many that they might dilute the business voices.
