Although wheat has been cultivated in the area since 1850, the town of Coolamon which the Shire is centred on - was established about the time when the railway arrived in 1881. The Shire was proclaimed on 3 March 1906. Today, Coolamon Shire has an area of approximately 2494 square kilometers and a population of 4099, comprising the three larger towns of Coolamon, Ganmain and Ardlethan and the smaller villages of Marrar, Matong and Beckom.

Appendix 3G Further Perspectives on the Financial Benefits of Local Government Amalgamations
3G-1 Appendix 3G Further Perspectives on the Financial Benefits of Local Government Amalgamations Appendix 3G has five sections which support the section in Chapter 3 on estimates of the financial benefits of local government amalgamations. The first section further examines the KPMG estimates that savings of up to $845 million per annum could be achieved in NSW through local government amalgamations. This first section also includes a critique of the KPMG estimates by Judith McNeill. The second section presents a Darwinian survival perspective to the debate on the preferred sizes of local governments. The third section briefly discusses the self-limiting effect whereby the strength of the argument in favour of local government amalgamations must in some senses diminish with each successfully achieved amalgamation. The fourth section, in Table 3G-3, provides a compilation of extracts from 113 Australian and international literature sources which provide valuable insights on the local government amalgamation debate generally and which appear to provide important lessons for this current study. KPMG's Financial Benefit Estimates Consultants KPMG explored four local government amalgamation options, and establishes estimates of cost savings possible through each of these options, in a 1998 report prepared for the Property Council of NSW. Table 3G-1 below summarises the key findings in this report, where savings estimates are based on 1995-96 data.

Northern Connectivity Event Update 25 May 2018
Northern connectivity event 25 May 2018 update Northern connectivity event update 5 Release of water from dams to support native fish in rivers of the northern Murray-Darling Basin started in mid-April. This water has now flowed from the Gwydir and Macintyre rivers into the Barwon-Darling, and is now between Collarenebri and Bourke. Monitoring of fish and habitat is underway. The watering event is being shared with riverside communities. Event update The flow from the northern connectivity event reached 1,000 ML/day in the Barwon River at Brewarrina on 22 May, and remains at about that level. This is the first time in over a year that flow of around 1,000 ML/day has persisted for more than a day there. The current flow at Brewarrina Weir is shown below – note the inundation of in- channel vegetation downstream of the weir, which is providing organic material and habitat, and the rock ramp fishway on the bottom right of the image, which allows fish to move past the weir and disperse upstream and downstream. 1 Flow 1 1 Northern connectivity event 25 May 2018 update Recent images from around Brewarrina and the weir are shown below. The weir is indicated by a white asterisk on the satellite images. There was a significant change in water colour as the connectivity flow arrived, as a result of river bed inundation and the capture of sediment and organic material into the flow, to fuel productivity. Brewarrina (from satellite) ←16 May, before * 21 May, * after→ Brewarrina fishway ← 8 May – before, 20 ML/day 23 May – after, 1,000 ML/day→ 2,3 Interestingly, the depth of flow in the Brewarrina fishway (above) has changed little as the flow increased.
