Community pressure has made the Victorian Government commit to protecting Preston Market!

However, they have yet to lay out how much of the market exactly will be protected.

Meanwhile, the developers Salta Properties have said they will increase the traders' rents, reduce their leases, and close the market if their huge multi-story re-development plan is not approved.

This is exactly why the Victorian Government should buy Preston Market off the developers!

If the market were in public hands we could be sure that it was safe and that the traders could continue trading with absolute certainty over their futures.

Come along to the town hall meeting to hear the case for public acquisition and have your questions about the market's future answered.

We are inviting the Premier and Planning Minister, as well as the Mayor of Darebin and local politicians and the developers to come and hear what the community wants for Preston Market.
