Lloyd Group Update

Published on 29 May 2023

Council understands the community remains concerned with the progress on projects impacted by the collapse of Lloyd Group. Over the past few weeks, Council officers have worked very closely with the appointed Administrator, Deloitte to determine the best way forward. As a result of this work, we are now in position for works to begin over the next few weeks on multiple sites.

Healthy Futures Hub

Council has secured the services of selected subcontractors so they can return to site and complete the remaining works considered priority for occupancy of the site. Priority works have recommenced onsite and will be completed over next the next two to three weeks.

Council Officers are also in regular contact with St Kilda Football Club, and other tenants, and expect early access to the building will be available shortly. Our next update will provide further details of timeframes regarding access for St Kilda and other tenants.

Jubilee Park Stadium

A builder has been appointed under a Construction Management Model to manage subcontractors to facilitate completion of remaining works and subsequent project completion. It is expected works will recommence onsite in the next three to four weeks.

Eric Bell Pavilion and Lloyd Park Senior Pavilion

Both contracts are now out for tender. We are confident we will see interest from a number of building and construction firms.

Council recognises this process has taken time. Unfortunately, this is the nature of this situation where things have changed rapidly as the Appointed Administrators worked through all of the many components of the voluntary administration (now liquidation) process.

Updates will continue to be provided as regularly as possible.
