Independent Review Update – Public Meetings

Community Meetings Prof Joseph Drew

Council extended an invitation to its residents to attend public meetings in Corowa and Urana during October. The purpose of the meetings is for residents to receive an update on the Independent Review currently being undertaken by Professor Joseph Drew. The meetings also provided ratepayers with the opportunity to provide valuable feedback in respect to the review.

At an extraordinary meeting on Friday, July 14, 2023 Council resolved to appoint the Institute for Regional Futures (University of Newcastle) to undertake an independent peer reviewed business case study on the financial sustainability of Federation Council and the advantages and disadvantages of amalgamation. An integral part of this project is to seek feedback from the community to accompany the findings that will be contained in the final report. Public meetings will be held on:

  • Monday, October 16 from 6.30pm-8pm at Club Corowa.
  • Tuesday, October 17 from 6.30pm-8pm at the Waterfront Pavilion Urana.

Residents are encouraged to view further information and video updates from Professor Joseph Drew.
