Council resolved at its Standing Committee Meeting, Thursday 5 December 2024 to amend the fees and charges for pool entry at the Moree Artesian Aquatic Centre (MAAC) back to those set out in the 2024/25 Operational Plan and Budget.
This change to the fees will commence on Monday, 9 December 2024.
Per Section 610F (3) and 705 of the Local Government Act 1993, Council discounted the swim entry fee to the MAAC to a casual entry fee of $2.00 per person in August 2024, to encourage attendance while we were unable to offer a fully functioning complex to our users.
Security is and remains an important part of our facility for patrons and staff. However, due to the ongoing need for security and this added and unbudgeted cost to Council, continuing with a discounted fee at the pool is no longer feasible.
Council and Belgravia do not condone violence and anti-social behaviour in any of our facilities and ask the community to be respectful of each other and our staff.
While the complex has encountered challenges, we continue to work towards delivering this project back to the community.
