VICTORIA Police has committed to advertising the station vacancy at Pyramid Hill.
One of three northern Loddon stations without a permanent officer, Victoria Police last week confirmed it was “in the process of advertising the position at Pyramid Hill”.
The statement did not say when the vacancy would be advertised.
Resident Kel Stewart told the Loddon Herald last month that the town wanted a permanent police presence.
“We hope Victoria Police advertises the position quickly. It will be good to have someone back around town all the time,” she said this week.
Pyramid Hill’s last permanent officer retired last year while Boort and Serpentine are also without permanent police.
Victoria Police last Wednesday said: “While we are filling this position, an additional police member has been deployed to Pyramid Hill.
“Police from Wedderburn and nearby stations also regularly conduct patrols in the area to ensure an appropriate response is available. If you require immediate police assistance, always call Triple Zero.”
