TENTERFIELD MAY SOON BE IN RENAMED ‘BRUXNER’ SEAT IF CHANGE IS MADE

Tenterfield councillors will write to the New South Wales Electoral Commission seeking to rename the seat of Lismore.

The shire is currently included in the district, but there’s a campaign to instead call it ‘Bruxner’.

It’s in homage to former Deputy Premier, Michael Bruxner – who was also the MP for the long-gone Tenterfield electorate.

The move is also backed by Lismore councillors.
