Western Downs Regional Council
Australia
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 19 ธ.ค. 2017
Emerging from a collection of rural townships with their roots in agriculture, the Western Downs Regional Council area has become a hive of activity and growth through continued agriculture, manufacturing and resource diversification.
Inherently rural in nature, the Western Downs region is located three hours west of Brisbane and is part of both the Murray-Darling River and the Fitzroy River catchments.
The region covers an area of 38,039 square kilometres (an area the equivalent size of Switzerland) and comprises six main centres - Dalby, Chinchilla, Miles, Tara, Jandowae and Wandoan - with numerous other smaller towns and villages scattered throughout the area.

WDRC Get Ready Day Tara
It was awesome to have our mate Bluey in Tara, helping to raise awareness around the importance of being disaster ready on the Western Downs!
Hundreds of locals turned out to meet Bluey and Bingo, and hear from former NRL star and mental health advocate David Shillington, and learn about how to be prepared when disaster strikes!

So why can’t you use the land where the cinema used to be why can’t you use that. #SAVETHOMASJACKPARK
I remember this year someone from Western down came to my school!
så här ser inte dalby ut. om ni ska vissa byn så måste ni i alla fall visa dalby kyrka. den är den älsta sten kyrkan i norden
Sounds great but, Flood and fire mitigation seems more important that sporting arena's . Also the state of streets and roads in our little towns are a disgrace, some so rough. Lets move on and talk about our water supply, or the lack of it when its needed the most. Streets with no curb and channeling, concrete footpaths in some places ,non existing or in need of replacing. The needs of the many, out weigh the needs of the few. I know where you should stick your new swimming pool. ...!
How do we get a copy of the break down of costs for providing each of the individual services, projects and activities which were used to inform the general budget figures provided in this video and on the website compared with the income received by rates and service and asset fee for the same activities? Thanks
I thought most local governments prudential financial position was a 20% debt in a low interest rate environment to build or invest now rather than in 3 to 4 years when the costs of a project would increase by 40 to 400%? Is being debt free in a low interest rate environment the most effect spend of ratepayers money?
Sounds like a wonderful place to live! 😊

Great video. I am currently looking around to move up to QLD with my mum to get away from Sydney and be closer to my younger sister in Tara. Main issue we are having is figuring out out how to move so far when it’s just the 2 of us and I am the only one who works my mum is unable to work
So good team! Well done! 🙌 Lovely town! ❤️
Amazing video.
Went out there to buy a car, yes I know stupid, got ripped off and lied to by a local scum bag and the car left us stranded for days in the middle of no where. Felt like going back with a base ball bat to sort it out but there is a whole town full of dirt bags there and only two of us, so we cut out losses and let it be. So much for country hospitality.
Population of Tara = 2. LOL.
umm how is everyone going with the coal seam gas poisoning the ground water
Another 140+ wells going in this year!!
Great video highlighting the responsibilities of dog owners. Well done Western Downs Regional Council
Wish that was me. At least I would be out of The DUMP Sydney
