Etty Street precinct, Castlemaine

Ms EDWARDS: I am pleased that Castlemaine’s Etty Street precinct redevelopment has reached another milestone. The project master plan is now underway thanks to funding from the Andrews Labor government. The Etty Street precinct will transform the old Castlemaine Secondary College into a community facility featuring a training centre for the hot rod specialty vehicle industry, Workspace Australia facilities to support social enterprises, other emerging businesses and space for community use.

The master plan is the next step in ensuring the Etty Street campus will be a significant and important facility for community use and for economic benefit to the Mount Alexander shire. I want to thank and acknowledge everyone who has been on the journey to make this happen. It has been a fantastic example of collaboration, shared purpose and leadership.
