"Council is taking the opportunity to ensure an important heritage-listed building is maintained for the community for many years to come. The $750,000 refurbishment of the Old Shire Offices is an important part of revitalising the Werribee City Centre. The works will improve accessibility, safety and usability, while carefully preserving the building's heritage features.
The upgrade was included in the endorsed Council's Annual Plan and Budget 2025-26 and will include refreshed and modernised internal facilities to better support community activities, and improvements that make the building more welcoming for everyone, with longer operating hours for the community.
Once the refurbishment is complete, Council will run an Expression of Interest process for future community uses, which the Werribee Historical Society will be able to participate in.
These changes will activate this much-loved building for broader community use."
