Local MP Jade Benham says she’s working with locals to return the Mallee Rally to a more suitable location.
The race hasn’t been run since 2019 when the Victorian State Government decided not to issue a permit for the event because of concerns of cultural heritage at Lake Tyrell.
The Member for Mildura says while people respect the cultural and environmental impacts on areas around the lake, small towns rely on events like the rally.
She says the event is not just for the economic value, but events like these are the threads that sew the social fabric of regional towns together.
