Community members can show their support for the project by signing #BuildingLatrobe postcards between now and the federal election on 18 May; writing a chalk message on the Civic Plaza at the Moe Service Centre & Library; and adding the campaign frame to their Facebook profile. The Mayor and Ward Councillors will hand deliver the completed postcards to the candidates as an expression of the level of community and Council support that exists for this project. Quotes Latrobe City Mayor Graeme Middlemiss: Council has a vision for the entire precinct and we want to see it delivered. Only with completion of Stage 2 can we expect to see the full social and economic benefits to flow to the Moe community and the broader region. There was always understanding that Stage 2 would be funded by the Federal Government. West Ward Councillor Sharon Gibson: The Moe Library and Service Centre has been a wonderful start but I understand the community’s growing frustration as we’ve been waiting too long for the next phase of this revitalisation project." West Ward Councillor Brad Law: I want to hear a firm commitment to making Stage 2 become a reality for Moe. The Latrobe community want it, the business community need it and the federal candidates who want this community’s votes can make it happen. #BuildingLatrobe Postcard directing community members to show support for the Stage 2 of the Moe Activity Centre Plan to Mr Russell Broadbent MP #BuildingLatrobe Postcard directing community members to show support for the Stage 2 of the Moe Activity Centre Plan to Labour Candidate Jessica O’Donnell Mayor Graeme Middlemiss, Councillor Sharon Gibson, Councillor Brad Law and Councillor Alan McFarlane in front of the Moe Library and Service Source: www.gippsland.com Published by: support@gippsland.com
