Sunraysia Daily deputy editor Simon Cameron caught up with Member for Mildura Ali Cupper to find out the big issues she will be fighting for in 2020.
THE Mildura South Regional Sporting Precinct (MSRSP) project and obtaining funding to fix the Robinvale-Sea Lake Road are the two big-ticket items Member for Mildura Ali Cupper will be fighting for in May's Victorian Budget.
MSRSP has an $8 million shortfall for full completion and Ms Cupper said it was crucial the government increased its $3 million input to the $36.5 million project.
The Federal Government has provided $17.5 million and Mildura Council $9.5 million but any shortfall means the project will have to be staged.
"The vision for Mildura South is not just about recreational opportunities for our community -- as important as that is -- it's also about improving our tourism capacity," Ms Cupper said.
