Colac Fire Brigade captain Daniel Williams is not

Colac Fire Brigade captain Daniel Williams is not happy with the proposed plans for the Lake Colac foreshore, which would force the brigade to relocate its training track.

Colac Otway Shire Council has endorsed a draft Colac Botanic Gardens master plan and is seeking community feedback before it goes back to the council for approval.

The draft plan includes the removal of the Colac Fire Brigade running track where the district’s firemen and women have trained for decades, with the Central Reserve Master Plan, adopted in 2022, allocating space for a CFA training facility.
