Representatives from Reimagining Old Footscray Hospital Community Group were really pleased to show Member of Parliament for Western Metropolitan Region, David Ettershank MP around the old hospital site today.

We shared the community vision and ask to the State Government for meaningful engagement on a community precinct plan that reflects objectives for natural open space, quality medium density and diverse housing, including significant social and affordable housing, an early small stage park, and a range of community spaces and uses.

We have also written to Minister Shing inviting her to meet us on the site to discuss.

9 sleeps until the new hospital opens...
