Forrest Caravan Park lease - Community Consultation

No longer on display. Expired on 03 July 2020, 05:00 PM

Colac Otway Shire Council is seeking  feedback from members of the Forrest and district community in a survey regarding the future of the Forrest Caravan Park lease.

Council resolved at its February meeting to consult the community on the area of land to be included in an upcoming Expression of Interest (EOI) process for the lease.

The current lease for the caravan park is due to expire in April 2021 (with negotiations to extend the lease to April 2022 currently underway) and Council has determined to test the market by inviting EOIs from operators interested in running a new caravan park on the site.

Prior to embarking on the development of an EOI document, Council wants to hear from the community about its views on the lease, particularly the area of land the lease might cover.

The online survey is available until Friday 3 July and can be accessed at this link:  https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/forrestcpl  

Council’s Economic Development and Tourism team is also arranging video conferences or phone conferences with community members who would like to talk to officers. People interested in having a conversation can contact the Economic Development and Tourism team on 5232 9400 during business hours, or email ecodev@colacotway.vic.gov.au
