THE City of Casey is to allow community groups to undertake construction works on council owned assets that they use.
Councillors agreed to outsource construction projects to qualified and certified trades people within a community group at a recent meeting.
Casey Mayor Sam Aziz, who first opened the discussion in June 2015, said the changes provide a “win, win” situation for the council and the community groups who will benefit from the works.
Each project from local groups and clubs will be evaluated by council officers on a case by case basis, in keeping with legislative requirements and council policy.
The changes mean local trades people can help out their chosen group or club in more ways than they ever could have before.
