"VicRoads or the Roads Corporation of Victoria is a statutory corporation which is the state road and traffic authority in the state of Victoria, Australia. It is responsible for maintenance and construction of the state arterial road network, as well as driver licensing and vehicle registration. VicRoads has broad responsibility for road safety policy and research. It is also responsible for regulating the accident towing industry in Victoria." [VicRoads. Wikipedia]
"Sales Process.
Once it has been established with the relevant VicRoads Regions/ Projects and other business areas that properties are identified as surplus to VicRoads’ operational needs, they are incorporated in the VicRoads annual sales program.
Following approval: relevant VicRoads Regional Manager and the VicRoads Chief Executive (and in some circumstances Minster for Public Transport and Roads) must approve all land deemed surplus and available for disposal.
The method of sale is then determined and consultant advice is sought:
(1) Planning.
(2) Valuer General Victoria (Valuer General’s office must provide a valuation for all sales).
(3) Government Land Monitor (Land Monitor approval is sought if the value exceeds $750,000).
(4) Environmental.
(5) Local Council." [www.vicroads.vic.gov.au/ planning-and-projects/ property-services/ property-management]

How to Create the Custom Diagram Template

ConceptDraw?PRO enables you to?place your own templates. You can create diagram with ConceptDraw DIAGRAM using your custom Template. You can set up your Template as a default ConceptDraw DIAGRAM start page. A template diagram is a drawing that serves as a starting point for a new graphic document. When you open a template, it is pre-formatted in some way. For example, you might use template that is formatted as an organizational chart. The template would likely have a workspace and a corresponding object libraries. When you save a file created with a template, you are usually prompted to save a copy of the file, so that you don't save over the template. Templates can either come with a proper solution or can be created by the user. If you find yourself creating similar documents over and over again, it might be a good idea to save one of them as a template. Then you won't have to format your documents each time you want to make a new one. Just open the template and start from there.
