	City of Swan
		The City of Swan will look to change its rating classification on about 20 properties in the Swan Valley to improve fairness to owners of similarly used land throughout the region.
		Of the 19 potentially-affected properties identified in the City’s survey, only one owner objected to the proposed change and a submission was received and considered by the City.
		This is considered unfair for genuinely rural properties and for commercial properties being rated on ‘Gross Rental Value’ (annual rental value of the improvements such as buildings).

	Swan Hill - Sponsorship Profile
		A decade ago, the Swan Hill Town Hall was a pretty typical regional centre town hall hosting debutante balls, weddings and small conventions as well as some big name acts from Melbourne as part of their regional circuit.
		Following the merger of the local rural councils, Swan Hill Rural City Council was established in 1995 to serve Swan Hill and surrounding areas totalling 6200 sq km with a population of 21,700.
		Having proved that they were committed to meeting the cultural needs of the regional area - and in fact revitalising the cultural environment of the Swan Hill - the Swan Hill Rural City Council became one of the first regional municipalities to receive a $2 million grant to upgrade the Town Hall facility.

		In the small German town of Röcken bei Lützen, located in a rural farmland area southwest of Leipzig, Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche was born at approximately 10:00am on October 15, 1844.
