Echuca Regional Library Project Update

In December 2009 Council decided to look at two different options for the new Regional Library and not pursue the IGA site due to major financial constraints. Two options put forward were 1. Civic Centre Annexe and 2. Swap locations with the VIC and extend the pump house building. These options were put out for public comment and over 60 submissions were received. The February 15th Council report is now available at www.campaspe.vic.gov.au which provides a summary of the submission responses. After serious evaluation of the submissions and also by seeking advice from a range of advisers Council will now consider the recommendation to adopt the Civic Centre Option and to also appoint an architect as soon as possible to commence the design process. The Council meeting will be held at 8pm next Tuesday at the Rochester Sports Complex, all the community are welcome to attend.
