The Red Rock Multi-Use Centre is in better shape following an $18,790 State Government funding boost, said Member for Coffs Harbour Gurmesh Singh.
The funds are from the Community Building Partnership Program, which delivers improvements to local facilities and creates positive social, environmental and recreational outcomes.
Mr Singh said local residents are extremely proud of the Red Rock Multi-Use Centre, an extremely important focal point for the village.
“The centre proudly plays host to book fairs and other events, meetings and celebrations, and has even been a polling place for elections,” Mr Singh said.
“This funding is for the much-needed repair and replacement of windows, doors and corners of the building damaged by exposure to the elements, and refurbishment,” Mr Singh said.
“I congratulate the centre’s committee on identifying the improvements needed to make this facility an even greater place for members of the community to gather.
“It’s anticipated the upgrades will lead to an expanded usage of the centre, and I know this is precisely what the committee members are actively seeking to achieve.”
Mr Singh said applications are open for the 2021 Community Building Partnership Program, unlocking $27.9m for community infrastructure projects across the State.
“I encourage local organisations to apply by Friday, 14 May,” Mr Singh said.
