Kingaroy Police Station … built in the 1960s for a much smaller number of officers<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

June 4, 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n

Two years of lobbying has paid off with the announcement in the State Budget of a new police station and watchhouse for Kingaroy, plus major upgrades for Nanango police station.<\/p>\n

Member for Nanango Deb Frecklington said today it was a huge achievement for the South Burnett and one which she had been working extremely hard to secure.<\/p>\n

\u201cI knew how tough the State Budget would be this year, so it is fantastic news to be announcing that both Kingaroy and Nanango Police Stations will be completely overhauled,\u201d Mrs Frecklington said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe total investment will be $8.3 million for Kingaroy and $1 million for Nanango. The current police station in Kingaroy was built in the 1960s and is no longer functional, appropriate or safe for the town.<\/p>\n

“The same can be said for the Nanango Police Station which is merely a small, demountable building.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a demonstration of our government\u2019s commitment to revitalising front-line services and shows our commitment to our hard-working South Burnett police officers who have been doing their best for so many years in a very old and rundown building.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
