The State Government is building on its support for regional Victoria with exciting new projects set to boost local economies, build even stronger communities and give people even more reasons to stop and visit.
$5.2 million in grants will support projects across the Gippsland region through the State Government’s $25 million Council Support Package.
Thepackage, now fully acquitted, has successfully helped shovel-ready projects get off the ground in our biggest regional cities and surrounding towns.
The package funds projects that are designed to increase tourism, improve local infrastructure, strengthen businesses and empower volunteers – with grants ranging from $20,000 and $5 million depending on size and scope.
East Gippsland Shire will receive $100,000 towards a new Lakes Entrance Water Sports Pavilion at Cunningham Arm to safely house water sport equipment, enhancing the tourism product offering and complementing the Krauatungalung Walk.
