Mayoral Notes

March 10, 2016 By Maggi Barnard

council

Well done to Cheryl and the Parkes Phoenix team. The first publication was a credit to your hard work and organisation. Parkes Shire Council’s new Waste Collection Service is almost here, enabling residents to waste less and recycle more, the new system will commence from the 4th of April.

The new Water and Sewage Treatment Plants have commenced the first phases of construction with John Holland Pty Ltd setting up site offices at each site. To ensure that local businesses and the local community received the maximum benefit from projects a networking night was held for local businesses to meet the John Holland
team and learn about the packages of work available.

We are very fortunate in our shire to boast an active community and a number of exciting events The Parkes Field Day is being held today I encourage everyone to head to the Racecourse to support our local businesses and industry.

Congratulations to the organisers of the Field Day which again promises to be a great event. There is always a lot to see and do in our Shire and I encourage you to get out and enjoy all it has to offer. Visit Council’s website to keep informed about events and happenings in the Shire.

Yours Faithfully,
Cr Ken Keith OAM
Mayor of Parkes Shire
