Following today’s easing of the Victorian Government COVID-19 restrictions, we are pleased to announce that further Council services and facilities will become available to more of our residents.
Visitors are asked to continue to follow Victorian Government guidelines including the recommendations regarding mask wearing.
All our facilities and services are operating under strict COVID-safe plans to ensure the health and safety of our community and staff. If you feel at all unwell, please stay home and if you have any coronavirus symptoms, please go and get tested.
We will keep the community updated as we continue the safe reopening of other facilities and services in line with Victorian government directives.
