Local business success
Federal Member for Gippsland Darren Chester says the project is a good example of all levels of government working together to deliver a project that will last for generations. "It's terrific to see an East Gippsland business winning the contract to deliver a project that will improve the health and wellbeing of the local community for decades into the future."
"Funding has been received from three levels of government to undertake this much-needed redevelopment of the facility which hasn't changed much since I was a boy attending school swimming classes in the 1970s. Brooker Builders is an award-winning company with a reputation for quality works on residential and commercial projects across the region," Mr Chester said.
