Labor has made a $5 million pledge to a stadium and aquatics centre project at Wallan’s Greenhill Reserve if re-elected in the upcoming state election.
Labor candidate for Kalkallo Ros Spence on Wednesday announced $5 million for stage one of the Greenhill Recreation Precinct project, set to deliver an integrated facility for stadium sports, gymnastics and aquatics.
The precinct will also include accessible facilities catering to people of all abilities, including sensory rooms.
Ms Spence said the funding would help support growing communities in Wallan and Melbourne’s northern suburbs.
“Labor understands that local sporting clubs are at the heart of communities like Wallan,” she said.
“We’re proud to be injecting new life into local communities by delivering more modern, accessible infrastructure and facilities.”
Ms Spence also announced Labor would invest up to $50,000 towards a masterplan for a new recreation reserve for Beveridge.
The masterplan will guide the future use and development of the reserve, which will support the growing community.
