Our latest edition of Council News is now available.
From the Mayor's Desk - July Council News
It’s been another wet few weeks in the Warren Shire, with flood water continuing to affect those along the river and beyond .This means that quite a number of roads are closed and some others are open but with caution. Please refer to Council’s daily update of road conditions as posted on Council’s website. Our road crews are out provisionally repairing any new damage sustained from this weather event as and when access is possible.
In other news, the community has been engaged in consultation regarding expansion of the Warren Cemetery and consultation will take place in the coming months in regard to garbage collection services where unfortunately only a single tender was received for provision of this service with the previous provider declining to tender. We have also seen our Nevertire Water Tower mural and Public Art on Private Property mural series come to life.
I was able to attend the second meeting of the newly formed Alliance of Western Councils (AWC) early this month in Nyngan, together with our acting General Manager, Darren Arthur. It was gratifying to have all the Western Councils together again along the lines of the old Orana Regional Organisational of Councils (OROC) but with the addition of Central Darling, for what was a very productive and well attended forum, in which we shared strategies to overcome common issues and discussed topics that impact all of us here in western regional NSW.
Our new Infrastructure Projects Manager, Joe Joseph, also officially commenced his role this month. We look forward to seeing his contributions to the Shire as we work on exciting current – and future – infrastructure projects.
