With a commitment to advance Cyprus culture, the Victorian Cypriot community is embarking on an ambitious plan to develop its future resources in Melbourne.
At the heart of its vision are new premises for the Cyprus Community of Melbourne and Victoria (CCMV) in order to connect more deeply with the community, and in particular, its younger members. A plan drawn up by Executive Committee of CCMV involves the sale of the existing CCMV building on Lygon Steet, and relocation to a newly-renovated historic building close by.
CCMV would continue to lease out two retail premises (attached to their existing building) in order to provide a secure income stream. On September 11, the Executive Committee will recommend to its members to support resolutions that will give the green light to the plan.
President of CCMV Harry Tsindos said that the new building "would provide a facility we can all be proud to invite our friends, our families, politicians and dignitaries, and that will give our young people scope for involvement. All this will be achieved without debt and with two shops on Lygon Street fully paid for and earning passive income."
CCMV's President urged members of the community to attend "this Very Special General Meeting and to support the resolutions that will determine the future direction and survival of the CCMV into the foreseeable future.
The Special General Meeting will take place at 3.00 pm on Sunday 11 September. Venue: 495-511 Lygon Street East Brunswick. Victoria 3057
