DELEGATIONS / PRESENTATIONS & REGIONAL SIGNPOSTING ISSUES 1.1 Orange Wine Tourism Region signage scheme implementation TASAC determined that the Orange Wine Tourism Region was eligible for tourist signage in June 2015 but signs for individual wineries have not been installed as yet. Prerequisites for the determination were the installation of “Welcome” signs at the region’s key entry points and the establishment of information bays featuring panels with a map of the region’s wineries, winery contact details and opening hours for each winery. Tracey updated the Committee regarding progress with individual winery signage as follows: i. Glenn Mickle, Orange Council’s Tourism Manager, has negotiated an agreement between Orange and Cabonne Councils, the Orange Region Vignerons Association (ORVA) and individual wineries about respective financial contributions for the installation of signage for individual wineries. ii. Contributions from the individual wineries are due by the end of February 2017. RMS has designed signage for the scheme and Marty forwarded a quote for the manufacture and delivery of the signage to Glenn in November 2016. As the time limit for the quote has expired Marty will arrange for an updated quote after Glenn advises that the individual winery contributions have been collected.

  • Council Responds to Flood Crisis
    KYOGLE COUNCIL M E D I A R E L E A S E Date: 3 April 2017 Kyogle Council staff are back in the field repairing and inspecting flood damage across the Kyogle Council area, with the damages bill expected to be between $3 million and $5 million. Council's priority is to restore access to residents as soon as possible. Staff have been working since Thursday night to keep main roads open and were out in the field throughout the weekend inspecting roads, documenting damaged infrastructure, developing a prioritised program of works and restoring access where possible. Several roads were reopened Saturday and Sunday after flood water subsided and staff were able to clear debris from bridges, carry out culvert repairs, and repair bridge approaches. This work will continue throughout the week. At this stage, staff have identified a number of bridges with structural damage and a number of roads remain closed where the damage requires further assessment or alternative routes are available to residents and emergency vehicles. The number of areas affected in this way is likely to increase as further inspections take place. On Saturday afternoon there were more than 200 people isolated by landslips and damaged roads and bridges across nine different roads. By Monday morning access has been restored to all but three of these roads. A temporary bridge is being constructed on McClellands Road at Barkers Vale to replace a bridge washed away in the floods, and this should be open to traffic by this afternoon (Monday 3 April 2017), restoring access to about 20 people.
