  • His Month to Have the Hon Mark Furner, Minister for Agriculture, Industry Development and Fisheries (DAF) Visit with Council on Tuesday 27/8/2019
    Bulloo Buzz 4 September 2019 MAYORS MESSAGE ……………..………….………………………. We were fortunate this month to have the Hon Mark Furner, Minister for Agriculture, Industry Development and Fisheries (DAF) visit with Council on Tuesday 27/8/2019. He had been to Charleville and Quilpie and came out here to meet with Council as well as Mr Anthony Glasson to discuss Mr Glasson’s work with Merino Sheep and current trends in the sheep industry. The Minister was impressed with the work that was happening in Thargo and he was very interested in the Warri Gate road project and the development of the Low Care Independent Living Centre. I informed him that we couldn’t ever remember an Agricultural Minister coming to Bulloo and the last State Minister was Minister Crisafulli who opened the VIC when the National Party was in Government. At Council’s last Ordinary and Special meetings, we approved the purchase of three utilities, a Prado, 1 Landcruiser, 2 Caterpillar Multi Tyred Rollers and 1 Caterpillar 12m Grader. All up this was a total spend of $1.1 million. This is part of Council’s commitment to ensure that we have a modern fleet of vehicles and plant that reduces our Maintenance and gives us a better resale value when we come to trade them in. It also gives local people the opportunity to buy vehicles at a reduced cost that they know have been serviced regularly. We have more plant to purchase but these are our major items for this year. The CEO attended a SWRED meeting in Cunnamulla last week.

  • Bulloo Buzz 03 April 2019 MAYORS MESSAGE ……………..………….………………………
    Bulloo Buzz 03 April 2019 MAYORS MESSAGE ……………..………….………………………. Rural Mens Night It was wonderful to see such a huge roll up of gentlemen at the Rural Men’s Night, particularly our remote residents who made the effort to travel in and stay for this great inaugural event. This event provided the men of our district and beyond with an avenue to kick back, have some fun and forget about their everyday worries and hardships, and recharge their batteries for what was still ahead. The women organisers were surprised to see us all there promptly at 6:30, a feat we jested was due to the fact that we did not have to wait for our wives to get ready. I would personally like to thank all those that attended making this night a tremendous success and a night, I believe, was enjoyed by all who attended. Whats out there for our residents: The Bulloo Shire is the third largest shire in Queensland with a small population. Having such a small population means that we are not eligible for a lot of community services. It also means that due to long distance, these services are not easily accessible. The drought has taken its toll by increasing workload around properties, leaving no free time for parents to spend driving to attend service locations. To help address this issue Council successfully applied for funding to implement the following programs: First Five Forever - This web and social media program aimed at taking the library into the homes of the people who are living in isolation.
