The Growing Suburbs Fund will provide grants for local community infrastructure projects, such as health and wellbeing hubs; community centres; arts and cultural facilities; parks and reserves; early education and learning centres; and sport and recreation facilities. Because no matter where you choose to live, work and raise a family – every Victorian deserves a great community.
Other initiatives include:

Advancing the Fishermans Bend transformation
