The latest community information sessions for the Resilient Homes Program – the State Government’s response to those whose homes were lost or damaged in the floods – will be held in Mullumbimby today.
The two 45-minutes sessions will be held at 10am and midday at St John’s Hall, 11 Murwillumbah Rd, Mullumbimby.
The sessions will be run by the Northern Rivers Reconstruction Corporation, the State-owned corporation set up to address the challenges created by the February and March floods.
The Resilient Homes Program and the Resilient Land Program are two key elements to the combined state and federal government’s response to the devastating floods in the region in February and March this year.
$800 million has been put forward to fund the two programs that seek to facilitate quick land release across the region for housing and house buybacks, house raising, and house retrofitting.
Those interested in attending can register on the NRCC’s website or just show up and register on the spot. The sessions have a maximum attendance of 80 people.
The sessions are the latest in a series of public meetings being held across the region. Other upcoming sessions include:
