  • Victorian Bushfire Reconstruction and Recovery Authority 100 Day Report TEN.046.001.0002
    TEN.046.001.0001 Victorian Bushfire Reconstruction and Recovery Authority 100 Day Report TEN.046.001.0002 Message from Christine Nixon Victoria is only just beginning to recover from the 2009 Victorian bushfires. Rebuilding homes and towns, supporting local economies, regenerating the natural environment and restoring community identity is an enormous task – for government, for businesses, and most of all for the communities themselves. Many people are starting to plan for their future, but many others are still deeply affected by the traumatic experiences they have suffered. The Victorian and Commonwealth Governments established the Bushfire Reconstruction and Recovery Authority to coordinate and oversee the rebuilding program. This Report outlines the steps we have taken in our first 100 days. Each fire affected community has very specific rebuilding needs. We are now in the process of identifying those needs so we can support communities to rebuild in the way they want. The sheer size of the devastated area and the huge number of people and organisations involved have presented challenges, but we are working through those issues in partnership with Community Recovery Committees, local councils, state and federal government departments and agencies, not-for-profit organisations and the private sector. Among many other recovery activities, the clean-up is underway, temporary villages are being established at Marysville, Kinglake and Flowerdale, and 29 community meetings have been held with more than 4400 people to develop medium and long-term rebuilding plans that reflect the wishes of each fire affected region. The reconstruction effort is a sensitive, evolving, step-by-step process. I would like to thank the many thousands of people I have met for their incredible spirit and determination to get on with the job of rebuilding.
