Finally A Decision Has Been Made: No Amalgamation For Cabonne Council
There will officially be No Amalgamation for Cabonne Council after an announcement on Tuesday from the NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian, assuring the Government would not go ahead with pending amalgamations in rural areas while proceeding with those planned for Sydney. The Canowindra Phoenix along with an ecstatic Cabonne Mayor Ian Gosper, has welcomed the announcement that the NSW Government will not proceed with a proposed merger with Orange and Blayney Councils, describing the decision as a great victory for local democracy. “We have always stood up for the majority of Cabonne residents who have made
it very clear over the past four years they are strongly opposed to any amalgamation,” Mayor Ian Gosper said. Communities have clearly and consistently indicated they are worried about the lack of representation if the councils were to merge, so news of no amalgamation has locals jumping for joy. Cr Gosper thanked Cabonne residents who had strongly supported the Council’s amalgamation fight, particularly the ANTY (Amalgamation No Thank You) group, which waged a high profile campaign against the proposal.
