Joint statement on the McCrae mediation – Mornington Peninsula Shire Council and South East Water

Significant progress has been made addressing the consequences of the McCrae Landslides.

Agreement has been reached with some residents during the mediation process, and Mornington Peninsula Shire Council and South East Water both consider that this will facilitate critical works to be undertaken, and provide a pathway for residents to return to their homes.

In close consultation with the most affected residents, the design of these critical works is being progressed.    

While the formal mediation process has now concluded, Mornington Peninsula Shire Council and South East Water are both committed to ongoing engagement to address remaining issues.

Mornington Peninsula Shire Council and South East Water both wish to thank the mediators, Dan Star KC and Glen Pauline, and the residents of McCrae for the productive discussions, which they are both committed to continuing.
