Council has resolved to close the Tyalgum Waste Transfer Station at the end of the 2013/2014 financial year and establish a scenic lookout on the site.The resolution follows several months of engagement with the local community after it was identified that low usage of the facility was contributing to its $61,000 annual operating deficit.Council's Coordinator of Waste Management, Rod Dawson, said funds currently committed to the transfer station over the next four years would be used for the establishment and maintenance of the new scenic lookout."The balance will be put toward a list of community infrastructure projects, which should commence in the 2014/2015 financial year," he said."Council will liaise with the community to consider which of these projects should be given priority."Council is now developing options for the design of a scenic lookout on the site and will seek feedback from the community in due course.Opportunities to be involved in this process will be promoted in the Tweed Link and via the Council website, www.tweed.nsw.gov.au.For more information about the community engagement relating to this project, visit the Tyalgum Waste Transfer Station page, here on Your Say Tweed.
