Greater Shepparton City Council is seeking nominations from individuals interested in joining the Goulburn Valley Highway Bypass Action Group.
The purpose of the Group is to provide advice to Greater Shepparton City Council on the development of the proposed Goulburn Valley Highway Shepparton Bypass. It has no executive function.
The Group has representatives from neighbouring municipalities and six community representatives. The community representative positions are voting members of the Action Group and are appointed for a three year term.
There are currently six vacant community representatives’ positions on the Action Group. Those with an interest in promoting the proposed bypass along its western route, and advocating for its development and resulting benefits are encouraged to apply. Nominations are welcome from freight and transport industry as well as from those representing wider community, social and business interests.
Meetings are held quarterly (or at other times as determined necessary by the Group). The appointments will commence in October 2018 and end in October 2021.
Nomination forms are available on Council’s website here or in the foyer of Greater Shepparton City Council’s offices at 90 Welsford Street, Shepparton; Mooroopna Library, 9-11 Morrell Street, Mooroopna; Shepparton Library, 41-42 Marungi Street, Shepparton; and Tatura Library, 12-16 Casey Street, Tatura.
