The Moree township and surrounding areas are expected to grow over the next 20 years with the arrival of the Inland Rail and the Special Activation Precinct (SAP).
Moree Plains Shire Council is progressing with plans to provide more housing in the right locations and to deliver the required infrastructure through the development of the Moree Growth and Infrastructure Plan (Plan).
Council adopted in November 2022 the Moree Plains Local Housing Strategy which identified the need for an additional 2,050 to 4,400 new dwellings in Moree Shire by 2041.
Council is seeking contributions from the community to complete a short survey to help shape the potential development of Southwest Moree and Pallamallawa.
“Council is excited to be looking into the future for our beloved Moree Plains, and we are keen to ensure that we have the infrastructure in place to allow for the projected expansion. The purpose of this survey is to help us research 5 investigation areas to help support this growth. I would encourage everyone to participate in helping shape the Plan to help us build our urban growth to meet the needs of all residents, now and in the future”, informed Mayor, Mark Johnson.
