Public Meetings - Tingoora
- Two public meetings will be held at Tingoora this afternoon and evening to address local concerns about the erection of an NBN tower in the town. The first meeting will be held at 5:00pm at the Tingoora water tower at 5 Hill Street between members of the Tingoora community, SBRC Manager of Planning and Land Management Chris Du Plessis and Division 6 Cr Ros Heit. Mr Du Plessis and Cr Ros Heit will explain the reasons why the tower - which was originally going to be erected in the forestry area close to the Tingoora State School - has been moved to a new location near the water tower; and the second meeting will be held in the chapel of Tingoora State School in Main Street, Tingoora at 7:00pm, where local residents will explain why they are opposed to the tower's new location and offer suggestions for alternate locations. Everyone who'd like to hear both sides of the issue is very welcome to attend both meetings. You can obtain more information by phoning Leanne on 0408-021-930 or Simon on 0423-095-705.
