Water security discussions
Council has also recently received $2.25million from the Safe and Secure Water Program that is for the strengthening of Winburndale Dam wall, with construction work already commenced.Council has also proposed a short-term solution to the State Government to purchase a water allocation from the Oberon Dam and Fish River Scheme to provide an additional water source for the town supply over this summer to help preserve the Chifley Dam supply for as long as possible.
Mayor Cr Bobby Bourke said council has today received advice that this water purchase will not be supported by the State Government as the water from Oberon Dam and the Fish River scheme is unlikely to have a supply surplus that could be made available to Bathurst.“Council has been advised that this water wouldbe required to meet the critical supply needs for other customers including the Blue Mountains.”“The Fish River Scheme option was just one of Council’s suite of water security options and while it would have given Council access to additional water for this summer, our precautionary approach with the early introduction of water restrictions has helped keep Chifley Dam at more than 46% capacity going into the warmer weather,” Cr Bourke said.“Extreme water restrictions, which start on 14 October 2019 will also assist in reducing average daily consumption and preserving what water is available in Chifley for as long as possible.“This gives Council time to continue progressing our medium-term plans to design and build a storm water harvesting system and a pipeline from Winburndale Dam.
“Council is working closely with local MP Paul Tooleon these issues and he has assisted with securing another meeting with the Minister for Water Melinda Pavey later this month to continue our discussions with the State Government regarding water security.

Have your Say Draft Community Participation Plan
Last year, the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 was amended to require all planning authorities (including councils) to prepare a Community Participation Plan outlining how they will engage with their respective communities in carrying out their planning functions.
The planning functions for Council include:
Assessment and determination of Development Applications (DAs);
Planning proposals and contributions plans; and
Strategic planning statements; and
The Community Participation Plan must not relate to any other functions of Moree Plains Shire Council (Council) and must be published by December 2019.
Please send all comments and submissions to the attention of the General Manager by 5pm Monday, 11 November:
By post: PO Box 420, Moree NSW 2400
By email: [email protected]
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Council’s Integrated Planning and Reporting team on 6757 3266.

Votes are in for MOREE Community Exercise Stations
Voting was open for two weeks and Council is thrilled with the response from the community on the survey which asked residents to vote for their favourite static exercise equipment design from a choice of three.
So we are very pleased that this equipment will soon be able to be enjoyed by the community.”
Works on the Mehi River Corridor project are being undertaken directly by Council, through its Engineering Services team.
“The static exercise equipment will help improve health outcomes for the whole community and can be utilised by residents of all ages and levels of fitness”
This project is made possible following a $402,554 investment by NSW Government through the Stronger Country Communities Fund together with a $100,000 contribution by Council.

Council leading the ‘Shop Local’ Charge - With Love Local Gift Card to hit the Plains
“We are fortunate to have many great operators in our retail sector who provide an unparalleled range of products and services to our locals, however the drought has invariably taken its toll on their businesses.
“The program is being run at zero cost to businesses including participating store setup, advertising and promotional support all of which is covered by Council.”
Mrs Pearse explained that the program also provides an opportunity for friends and family from outside of the Shire to support our drought-affected community, with the cards available to be purchased online and shipped to the recipient.
“These cards provide a means of bringing a vital injection of potentially new funds into the local economy.”
To participate in the program, businesses must have a functioning EFTPOS facility and offer some kind of retail product or service.
