Orange City Council is flying flags at half-mast to mark the Bondi tragedy.
Orange Mayor Tony Mileto said the Orange residents who want to pay their respects were welcome to lay flowers at the flag poles outside the Civic Centre in Byng Street.
"In the face of such horrific actions words can seem inadequate and nothing we can say today will change what is a dark day for Australia," he said.
"There are Australians who will be feeling incomprehensible pain today after losing family and loved ones. What happened at Bondi was aimed at dividing us. In time I think it will have the opposite effect."
"There may be residents in Orange who wish to make a gesture in memory of those who we have lost. They are welcome to lay flowers at the flagpoles in Byng Street which are flying at half-mast."
