new ambulance branch - consultation this wednesday

Ambulance Victoria have purchased land at 1 Rocksleigh Avenue, Tecoma with a view to building a new ambulance branch to service Belgrave and surrounds.

In order to share information about the project and what's envisaged Ambulance Victoria are holding a community consultation drop in session.

The drop in will be held this Wednesday 13th Nov from 5pm to 7pm and will be held at 1 Rocksleigh Avenue, Tecoma (the site).

Some community members have voiced concerns about the short notice and/or the extent of notification of this meeting. I have asked Ambulance Victoria if they would consider a second meeting to enable greater community participation. I'll keep you posted with further outcomes.

I encourage you to go along to the consultation, it's an opportunity to learn about how an ambulance branch operates, what the building will look like, what landscaping's proposed and if there's likely to be any amenity impacts and how these might be mitigated. This is your chance to let Ambulance Victoria know about the things that matter to you.
