Applicant: Shire of Strathbogie

Location: Euroa

Amount allocated: $130,190.00

Funding will enable the council to purchase and install a large diesel-powered generator, associated infrastructure and facilities for large-scale charging of mobile devices at BP Euroa. This will create a shower and power site for the community during major power outages and emergencies.

The project will be managed by the Shire of Strathbogie council and supported by the business who will install shower and conference facilities for the community. As well as supplying fuel, the community can purchase limited groceries, access refrigeration, air conditioning and a restaurant for cooked meals.

Many community members don’t have access to piped water or gas supply and rely on electricity for household water and cooking. This project will enable access to vital water, fuel and food supplies during extended outages emergencies.
