Objective and scope

The masterplan project aims to bring new life to the Omeo Justice Precinct by finding business opportunities that will help create a lively and appealing tourist destination.

The Precinct, located in central Omeo, has great potential to attract visitors and support the local economy.

By giving the historic buildings and surrounding area a new purpose, we can protect their heritage and ensure they are enjoyed for years to come.

Funding

This project is funded by the Victorian Government through Emergency Recovery Victoria.
