Good news! Our new indoor pool furnace has now been installed and the water temperature is back up to a comfortable 28°C.
We were very fortunate that the replacement unit arrived so quickly, allowing us to get it installed promptly. Thank you to everyone for your patience while the work was completed. We look forward to welcoming you back to enjoy the pool.
I’m proud to launch the Forbes Financial Gap Year campaign, encouraging young professionals from Western Sydney to spend a year in Forbes and get ahead financially.
The campaign speaks directly to people feeling the pressure of the rising cost-of-living. Over the next 12 weeks, we’ll be sharing what makes Forbes such a great place to live, work and raise a family.
We’re proud of our community and look forward to showing more people from the city why making the move to Forbes could be one of the best financial decisions they make.
If you’re visiting Lake Forbes over the coming weeks, please be aware of construction works taking place in the area. As part of the Johnny Woods Crossing redevelopment, Wambat Street between James Street and Gordon Duff Drive will be closed during the school holidays. The Apex Park car park will also be closed until the end of August while the playground upgrades are completed, including new kerb and guttering, footpaths and a new barbecue shelter.
Both projects form part of the Lake Forbes Activation Plan (LFAP) – Parks and Amenities Resilience and Betterment Project, funded by the NSW Government through the Community Assets Program.
The annual ‘Be Road Ready for Harvest’ Field Day returns to Forbes on Thursday 23 July out at the Central West Livestock Exchange. This is a great opportunity for farmers, contractors and machinery operators to hear from industry experts about vehicle dimensions, signage requirements and travel conditions, as well as a handson machinery display and a range of interactive activities. Breakfast will be available from 7.30am, with the event running from 8am to 11.30am.
God Bless
Mayor Phyllis Miller OAM
