Published on 29 October 2026

At the Council meeting held on Wednesday 28 October 2026, Council resolved to give public notice of its intention dispose of land and buildings that are surplus to Council’s needs.

Council officers have reviewed Council’s current land and building assets and identified several properties that are surplus to current and foreseeable operational requirements. These assets no longer support existing service delivery, strategic infrastructure, or future asset needs, and do not provide significant community benefit in their current state.

The proposed sales would enable Council to realise the value of underutilised assets, reduce ongoing maintenance and holding costs, and generate revenue that can be redirected towards priority projects, asset renewal programs and other strategic initiatives. The disposal aligns with asset management principles that support the optimisation of Council’s asset portfolio and the efficient use of public resources.

Proposed land disposals:

  • Upper Regions Street, Dimboola (98-104 Upper Regions Street, Dimboola CA 2 Section 22 & CA 3 Section 22)
  • Rainbow (Corner of Norman and Taverner Street, Rainbow, CA 14M)
  • 70 Charles Street, Jeparit (Lot 1 LP7980)
  • Riverside Street, Jeparit (Lot 1-4 LP12111)
  • Riverside Street, Jeparit (Lot 8-9 LP12111, Lot 196 L3581)

Proposed building disposals:

  • Old Workshop Building, Jeparit (11 Roy Street, Jeparit Lot 1-2 TP666030)
  • Dimboola Depot (72 Upper Regions, Dimboola Lot 1 TP248868, Lot 1 TP419257)
  • Jeparit Bowling Club (62 Lower Roy Street, Jeparit Lot 2 LP61292)
