Lithgow City Council is seeking expressions of interest from community members to participate in a Working Party formed to develop an engagement strategy with various agencies/businesses in Western Sydney as Lithgow continues to transition its economic base.

“The Working Party will convene for three months only, with the objective of developing an engagement strategy with various interest groups in Western Sydney and other areas capable of assisting Lithgow’s integration into Western Sydney’s growing commercial environment” said Council’s General Manager Graeme Faulkner.

“Newcastle, Wollongong and Lithgow all have similar electric rail access to Sydney with Lithgow more proximate to the Western Sydney area and the north/south rail links in that area, all of which has the potential to benefit Lithgow greatly” said the General Manager.

“The Working Party’s efforts will complement those already in play, with Council’s recent inclusion in the Western Sydney group WSROC” said Mr Faulkner.
