Another dry hot week has passed with no sign of rain. Keep the prayers up and let’s hope we get some soon. The Local Government (LG) NSW Conference last week was excellent and we were very pleased to have the Premier Gladys Berejiklian and NSW Local Government Minister Gabrielle Upton in attendance. They were excellent in taking questions… and I might add there were some really curly ones.
Work has commenced on the saleyards extension. This grant funded project will enhance the selling capacity of the cattleyards and of course create more jobs in Forbes.
Forbes is alive with roses at the moment. I drove around on the weekend and the town looks great. Thank goodness they are drought resistant.
The Baby Boomers weekend at the Services Memorial Club was a hoot and with more local support it could grow to a huge event. There were people from all over Australia in attendance. As locals we really need to support the entertainment that comes to Forbes.
Have a great week and God Bless.
Your Mayor,
Phyllis Miller
