Dear Member
All council CEOs have received from the Chief Executive of VicRoads an invitation to attend a forum on 12 November to provide an opportunity for senior management within Local Government and VicRoads to exchange perspectives on the delivery of the Victorian Transport Plan and roads related programs. In the process, it is hoped that delegates can jointly identify opportunities for enhancing stakeholder relationships and your participation in this Forum is expected to add value to the resulting deliberations.
Participants in the Forum include Jim Betts, Gary Liddle, senior representatives from local government industry bodies together with VicRoads senior management.
The emphasis will be on exchanging ideas and building relationships rather than one-way presentations. The program can be downloaded here.
The forum is being sponsored by Roads Australia as a service to industry and there will be no charge to participants.
This will be a landmark event which will hopefully bring local government representatives and the Chief Executives of councils in Victoria together to discuss how we can achieve more together. It is also expected that councils may be represented by Councillors and senior officers who are responsible for the construction and management of roads.
Details of the Forum are as follows:
- Date: Friday, 12th November
- Time: 9.30am to 3pm
- Venue: Manningham Function Centre, 699 Doncaster Road, Doncaster (Melway Ref:
Map 33; E12) - Theme: Delivering the Victorian Transport Plan – The Partnership Imperative
To assist with accommodation and catering we ask all participants to register. To do so or to enquire about details, please contact Rachael Rooney on rachael@roads.org.au or 5942 7222.
Regards, Bob Seiffert
