A LOCATION for a satellite SES location in Skye has been chosen.

The new facility will be built on Ballarto Road near Carrum Downs Police Station.

 The state government is spending $125 million on new SES facilities statewide. The new Skye building will act as a satellite facility for Frankston’s SES unit.

The Community Safety Building Authority website reads that the project is expected to be completed by the end of this year.

“Population growth in Frankston City Council is predicted to increase by almost 20 percent by 2041, placing increased pressure on surrounding VICSES units to respond effectively to the local community and continue to assist Victoria Police, Ambulance Victoria and fire services throughout the state,” the CSBA website read.

“The new fit-for-purpose facility will reflect VICSES’ commitment and dedication to the local community and enable an expansion of local services, while supporting the retention and recruitment of new volunteers. In collaboration with VICSES, we are undertaking considerable consultation with surrounding units, as well as the local council, affected parties and the local community (as required), to ensure the new location meets the needs of a growing community, now and into the future.”
