Thirroul Village Committee Report for May

Thirroul Plaza

Thirroul Plaza Developments Pty Ltd has appointed a development manager, Solid Void, to formulate a new development vision and Master Plan for the Thirroul Village Plaza site in the centre of Thirroul. To assist with this Solid Void has appointed a consultancy firm, Urban Concepts, to help them with the project.

Urban Concepts has a range of initiatives called UrbanTalk to keep residents and businesses informed. This includes the UrbanTalk Project Listing, which acts as an online community information hub for the project.

An extensive community consultation process with residents, businesses, and interested stakeholders will extend over the next 12 months. The consultation process has started with the ‘Big Ideas Community Survey’.

Please use this link to access the survey as well as information about the survey. To start the survey head to the end of the initial page and click on ‘Take the Survey’. It takes around 15 minutes to complete and will run until Monday, 27th May. The TVC encourages the community to get involved and have their say on this important development.

Should you have issues with accessing the survey online, contact UrbanTalk on 1800 828 255 and they will post a copy of the survey and a reply-paid envelope to you.

We invite residents to take time to participate in this survey. The findings from the ‘Big Ideas Community Survey’ will provide insights into the community’s ideas for redeveloping the Plaza site.
