As part of the Victorian Government's $125 million investment in Victoria State Emergency Service (VICSES) facility infrastructure, a new Satellite facility will be delivered for one of the busiest units in the state, VICSES Frankston.
Population growth in Frankston City Council is predicted to increase by almost 20% by 2041, placing increased pressure on surrounding VICSES units to respond effectively to the local community and continue to assist Victoria Police, Ambulance Victoria and fire services throughout the state.
The new fit-for-purpose facility will reflect VICSES' commitment and dedication to the local community and enable an expansion of local services, while supporting the retention and recruitment of new volunteers.
In collaboration with VICSES, we are undertaking considerable consultation with surrounding units, as well as the local council, affected parties and the local community (as required), to ensure the new location meets the needs of a growing community, now and into the future.
