Community engagement
Community engagement is an important element of the project at Oakover Road in Preston.
Previously, Homes Victoria established a Community Consultative Committee for the site that brought together members of the community to help plan the future of the project. As this project is now underway with plans in place, Homes Victoria is hosting regular community engagement opportunities to keep the community informed about all aspects of the project. We undertake regular community drop-in information sessions as well as facilitated stakeholder briefings.
Members of the community can contact us at any time to find out more about the project using the contact details below, or keep a look out for our newsletters, works notices and other updates.
