ARMIDALE TALKS AMALGAMATION

Talk of amalgamating councils is back on the table for Armidale, following the state government’s response to a report on local government.

It will offer financially troubled regional councils $13 million to merge.

During his speech prior to the mayoral election earlier this week, Mayor Laurie Bishop highlighted the importance of considering the offer.

“That is now clear to us as of last Thursday and we have a way forward and the way forward is very clear, no change is not an option, we need to build on those relationships.”
