Meninya St Advisory Committee

Published on 13 December 2021

Murray River Council is seeking expressions of interest from residents and business owners who are keen to offer input into the Meninya Street upgrade project.

Set to deliver several high-profile precinct-based initiatives and innovative upgrades, the project will enhance the heart of Moama by redeveloping the streetscape to improve amenities, accessibility and safety.

By strategically investing in infrastructure, parks and open spaces, and surrounding points of interest, Council aims to create a 'sense of place' within Moama, reshaping it from a transport thoroughfare to a vibrant precinct of social and economic activity.

To support the planning stage, Council is now establishing an Advisory Committee that will work alongside the project team to provide input and advice into the strategic direction of the overall project.

Council’s Project Manager, Matthew Sherman is encouraging business owners or locals with experience in the arts, culture, finance, real estate, industrial or tourism industries to apply.

“The Meninya St Advisory Committee will support Council by providing advice on the challenges and opportunities for the overall development of the precinct.”

“This project will greatly improve Moama’s liveability, identity and economy, and the committee will certainly play an important role in bringing this all to life to compliment the existing Echuca economy.”

"We are looking for people who are passionate about Moama that can contribute great ideas and review Council's strategic documents to ensure all issues are considered," he said.

Those successful in their submission will be required to attend committee meetings (minimum of 4 per year), review plans, documentation and provide advice and input into the direction of the Project.
