Parkes Shire Council Planning For The Future

February 3, 2023 By Roxane Manley

NSW Nationals Candidate for Orange Tony Mileto, Mayor Ken Keith, NSW Nationals Upper House MP Sam Farraway and Cr Bill Jayet.

NSW Nationals Upper House MP Sam Farraway recently joined NSW Nationals Candidate for Orange Tony Mileto to announce that the Parkes Shire Council has received $100,000 to develop business cases for the Spicer Oval Caravan Park and Carrington Hotel.

“I’m proud to announce that the NSW Liberal and Nationals Government’s will be providing Parkes Shire Council with $100,000 to develop vital business cases for the Spicer Oval Caravan Park and the Carrington Hotel in Peak Hill,” Mr Farraway said.

“By providing these resources, we are demonstrating our Government’s commitment to supporting local communities and we are confident that these business cases will lay the foundation for a bright future for the Parkes Shire.

“The Spicer Oval Caravan Park Redevelopment Business Case will be instrumental in determining the best path forward for the site, whether it’s relocation to a more suitable location or exploring new uses for the site.

Deputy Premier and Minister for Regional NSW Paul Toole said Resources for Regions has delivered 355 projects worth $560 million to mining communities since 2012, stimulating local economies and delivering critical infrastructure.

“It’s absolutely crucial we continue to support regional mining towns that supply our State with the resources needed to keep the lights on and the economy moving forward, and this program is just another example of the NSW Government’s commitment to the future of our mining regions.

I would like to congratulate Parkes Shire Council for putting forward these projects which will make big difference for the people and organisations in this local community.”
