Expressions of interest open

At their meeting last week, Councillors voted to proceed with the expression of interest process for the potential development of the former Doncaster quarry.

Our Mayor, Councillor Carli Lange, said the project reflects our community-centric approach.

“We regularly hear from residents about the challenges they’re facing due to the increasing cost of living, and this is always at the front of our minds. This project is a measured way of ensuring we’re financially sustainable by exploring other revenue opportunities to ensure we are delivering the best for our community.

“Interested parties will also have the option of incorporating the larger Manningham Depot-Quarry precinct. This will expand our options to find the best use for the land, ensuring continued service delivery through a well-planned and beneficial development for our community.

“We’re optimistic that this opportunity will not only provide funding to benefit services and infrastructure, but also flow on to enhance economic growth and improve infrastructure, paving the way for a brighter future for our community,” Cr Lange added.

Expressions of interest are open until 11.00am on 1 May 2024.
