At its meeting last week, council approved a last minute application for $200,000 funding from the Victorian Government’s Investment Fast Track Fund, and committed a further $50,000 from the shire if the grant is successfull, to fund the master plan.<\/p>\n
“This funding would provide the key financial support necessary to reimagine what the precinct could be to support the Anglesea community for decades to come,” Cr Stapleton said.<\/p>\n
“This includes exploring the possibilities of affordable accommodation for key workers, an integrated community hub and critical health infrastructure and services.”<\/p>\n
Cr Stapleton said the project will include “a high level of community engagement to establish a much-needed community endorsed vision for the precinct.”<\/p>\n
In his report to council about the project, the shire’s general manager of place making and environment Chris Pike said affordable housing for key workers in the town is “vital” and would help realise the potential of the visitor economy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
