Wollondilly Council
Funding from the Bushfire Local Economic Recovery Fund will help deliver upgrades to the old Picton Post Office, transforming it into an accessible community ‘Smart Hub’.
The iconic post office building will receive $986,570 of upgrades to create an inclusive co-working space; including installation of a lift, construction of accessible car parking and associated footpaths, walkways and ramps.
Mayor Robert Khan said, “Our vision is for the Old Post Office Building to be the centrepiece of a great smart working hub that benefits residents across Wollondilly.”
“It will be exciting to see the building brought to life once again, so we can open it up to the community and provide support for local business.”
Wollondilly Council
Wollondilly Council has welcomed the commitment of $920,120 in bushfire recovery funding to construct shade shelters at seven facilities across the Shire and to upgrade the playground at Picton Botanic Gardens as an inclusive play space.
The upgrades will be delivered through Stage Two of the Bushfire Local Economic Recovery Fund co-funded by the Australian and NSW Governments.
Mayor Robert Khan said that the addition of shade shelters in Warragamba, Tahmoor, Bargo, Oakdale, Thirlmere, Buxton and The Oaks and the inclusive play space will offer residents safe and friendly places to gather, share their experiences and move forward together.

Wollondilly Council
Wollondilly Council adopted its Budget for 2021/22 at last night’s Council meeting and is now finalising the details of its Operational Plan with a focus on the key areas of roads, jobs, customer experience and organisational performance.
Mayor Robert Khan said, “This Operational Plan reflects a major period of investment in our growing Shire.”
“Council has a focus on continual improvement and is concentrating on ways of enhancing service delivery and organisational performance, to make Wollondilly an even better place for our community.”
The 2021/22 Budget and Operational Plan provides information on Council’s services, projects, programs and budget for the next financial year; outlining how Council will continue to deliver them in the year ahead and achieve the commitments made in the adopted Delivery Program 2017/18 – 2020/21 (now in an extended fifth year).
So we re part of their foundation which is doing a fundraising drive to assist in this project and you can go to their website and donate and you can donate any amount, but we thought we d do something different rather than our normal celebration for our annual birthdays.
