Expo stall wraps up community information sessions

A stall at today's Seniors Expo in Murwillumbah (19 May 2011) wrapped up a series of community information sessions for the Delivery Program and Operational Plan.

Many older Tweed residents and service providers were among a large number of people who learnt more about the Delivery Program 2011/2015 and Operational Plan 2011/2012 by visiting a Tweed Shire Council stall at the expo.

The stall followed a similar session at Tweed City shopping centre at South Tweed Heads, which was attended by approximately 40 people, as well as the Mayor and Deputy Mayor. Senior Council staff and elected Councillors staged a total of six stalls at shopping centres and community markets throughout the Tweed, in addition to the Seniors Expo display.

River health and improvements to the Tweed's road network were among key issues raised by visitors to the Tweed City stall, while a number of residents at the Seniors Expo stall called for additional public transport such as a rail link to South East Queensland.

Tweed organisations and individuals now have until 27 May 2011 to provide feedback on the draft Delivery Program and Operational Plan. They can lodge comments on the community online forum on this website, or forward written submissions by email to tsc@tweed.nsw.gov.au or by post to the General Manager, Tweed Shire Council, PO Box 816, Murwillumbah 2484.
