Special meeting today

16 Nov 2015 2:48 PM -

A special meeting of Forbes Shire Council will be held this afternoon at 5pm to finalise Council’s response to the IPART report.

The submission is due on Wednesday, November 18 and feedback regarding mergers and the report has been received from community members through a telephone survey and a public meeting to help with the response.

“We have been meeting each Monday to discuss our submission and this afternoon is when we will decide what our response is,” Mayor Phyllis Miller OAM said.

“We are trying to incorporate the thinking of our community members into our submission and we appreciate all the feedback we have received.

“Since the IPART Report was released we have only had a small window of time to gain feedback and submit our response.

“This afternoon’s meeting is about finalising that submission.”

The special meeting will be held at the Forbes Shire Council Chambers and community members are welcome to attend.
