Expressions of interest open: Lifestyle Village Community Reference Group
The District Council of Robe is inviting community members to submit an expression of interest to join the Lifestyle Village Community Reference Group.
Council is investigating the future use of Allotment 72, 11 Hateley Crescent, Robe (Casuarina Lodge), including a possible boutique, low-maintenance Lifestyle Village for people seeking to downsize in Robe.
The group will provide advice to Council as it develops a locally informed vision and considers the project’s next steps. It is advisory only; all formal decisions remain with Council.
Who can apply?
Council is seeking up to eight community participants. The two Council Members appointed to the group are Cr Marcia Dening and Cr Ned Wright.
We welcome applicants with a genuine interest in the project or relevant lived experience, including people considering downsizing in Robe, people with accessibility or inclusive housing perspectives and people from the wider Robe community. We also encourage applicants with professional or technical knowledge relevant to housing development, planning, design, construction, infrastructure, financial feasibility or village operations. Specialist expertise is not required for every applicant.
Council will seek a range of perspectives and relevant experience. Submitting an expression of interest does not guarantee appointment. Applicants must disclose any actual, potential or perceived conflicts of interest. A person promoting a specific proposal or likely to seek a role in future procurement will not be appointed as a standing participant.
For details about the group’s purpose, responsibilities and membership, please read the Terms of Reference.
