A NEW station for Keysborough CFA will be built if the Liberals win this month’s state election.
The state opposition has announced it will spend $7 million on relocating the Keysborough CFA unit. In a statement it said that the “exciting new location will be the first innovative CFA hub and service the brigades within Greater Dandenong, including providing a place volunteer members from Springvale can call their home as an integrated entity within the Greater Dandenong municipality.”
“Keysborough Fire Brigade do a wonderful job protecting our community all year round and this commitment of $7 million from a Liberals and Nationals government will ensure they and their fellow Greater Dandenong brigades and volunteer members can better respond to emergencies as part of a new innovative CFA hub concept,” Mordialloc Liberal candidate Phillip Pease said. “The current facility is no longer fit-for-purpose and this funding will ensure our Greater Dandenong volunteers have the land and funding to build a brand-new hub that will service Keysborough, Springvale and Greater Dandenong for many decades to come.”
