A cross-posting from the Buffalo closed due fires thread...

On the subject of Cresta Valley.

According to local ABC Radio this morning, Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews has announced as part of the economic recovery post Covid19, the construction of five eco-pods at Cresta Valley costing $1.5 million, for luxury tourism accomodation.
They are allegedly portable and will be constructed locally.

At the same time expressions of interest will be sought for investing in and running the Buffalo Chalet cafe.
The initial cafe will be temporary, until the fully revamped Mansfield Cafe can be reconstructed.

This will be a first step in a staged redevelopment of the Chalet for accomodation.

Community action for the Chalet apparently has a local Facebook group, with a link to the Price Waterhouse & Cooper proposals about the progressive development options.
