Premium Content Roses are set to bloom in the main street of Gin Gin once again. They have recently been transplanted back to their original positions, after being cared for by Bundaberg Regional Council during the Gin Gin Streetscape upgrade. The roses have become a significant feature of the town and were lovingly looked after by local man John McLean for 30 years before his recent passing. Bundaberg Mayor Jack Dempsey said the roses were a credit to John, Diane Southwell and the rest of the nursery team at the Botanic Gardens who cared for these roses while we were completing the multimillion-dollar upgrade.
Member for Bundaberg Tom Smith welcomed Thursday s announcement. This is great news for Bundaberg and for our region s economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, he said. Another round of Works for Queensland will allow Bundaberg Regional Council to deliver more jobs and build or upgrade their council infrastructure. I know that councils in our region have already put previous rounds of funding to good use with 252 projects being funded through Works for Queensland, delivering 5,101 jobs for locals. We ve already seen Works for Queensland deliver upgrades for both Central Park and Boreham Park, which have been fantastic for our community and created local jobs.
