04.01.2022 The 2020 bushfires generated large sums of money to support bushfire recovery. Bushfire Recovery Victoria (BRV) was established to support of social, economic, environmental, natural and built environmental recovery in natural disasters. BRV is committed to locally led and locally driven recovery. Its role is to strengthen coordination and collaboration between communities, BRV, local government and other state agencies to support communities to achieve their community recove...ry vision and goals. The Towong Shire is coordinating the establishment of local Community Recovery Committees throughout the Shire. It recognises that individual communities within the Shire were impacted differently by the bushfires. With the support of the Council, a group of Peninsula community members met on Zoom to discuss and initiate the establishment of a Peninsula Community Recovery Committee. The group supported the establishment of the Peninsula CRC but wants to ensure all members of the community can be involved and a cross section of the community is represented. The group is seeking expressions of interest from residents of Bellbridge, Bethanga, Granya and Talgarno who want to join and form the Committee. The role of the Committee will be to identify the needs and issues raised by the bushfires as well as identify and progress activities, projects, and services to support the social, economic, environmental, natural, and built environmental goals of the Peninsula communities. The Committee will consult with the community via surveys, meetings and through existing community groups to ensure ideas and opinions are captured to consider these in decisions. The structure and terms of reference of the CRC will be developed by the Committee. For more information contact Julie Miller 02 6020 11107 or email [email protected] See more
