In the 2019 crowds and ratings thread Hawkk made me aware that Labor have pledged $20m for the Kennedy Centre at Dingley.
It got me thinking that since last year there has been a lot pledged and some actually committed via MYEFO last year and the Budget this year a few weeks back, that I will make a list of what I know. If others know of their clubs getting election pledges then you can stick the info in here.
* Labor pledges $5m to Port's Aboriginal Centre of Excellence, a community project that state Labor committed $8m to if they won in March 2018. Project has received another $4m in 2017 from the feds and total project is $18m. There is another $17m of football precinct development that state labor pledged about $2m of that $8m last year with the balance for the Aboriginal Centre of Excellence
