Mayoral Notes

May 20, 2022 by Maggi Barnard

Forbes Shire Council is again calling for nominations of community representatives to apply for positions on Section 355 committees of Council. 

We are specifically looking for transport operators, local and regional, for the saleyards committee and food and accommodation operators for the tourism and events committee. 

Community membership of these committees is very important for Forbes Shire Council so feedback and suggestions are heard loud and clear. 

These committees consist of community volunteers, industry representatives and Councillors and provide advice to Council as well as assist in enhancing outcomes for the community. 

You can find out more on our Forbes Shire Council website or by calling into our administration office for a nomination form. 

Our tradies have spoken and we have listened, our Build Your Home Expo has been rescheduled and will be held on Wednesday, 17th August. Council is hosting this expo to connect builders, construction and associated trades with the community. If you are a tradie make sure you book your space and if you are planning to build or renovate, we invite you to come along. Council staff will also be on hand to discuss planning and compliance requirements. 

Are you new to Forbes? Come along tonight for another Welcome to Forbes event. Bring your whole family and meet other newbies, community groups and Councillors in a relaxed atmosphere at the Forbes Historical Museum in Spring Street from 5:30pm for 6pm. We look forward to welcoming you to our amazing town!
