Nobby Invited To Have Conversation With Councillors

Toowoomba Region Sports Precinct

Toowoomba Regional Council is inviting the Nobby community to have a conversation with Councillors about their ideas and aspirations for the town and surrounding area.

Toowoomba Region Mayor Geoff McDonald said the "Community Conversations" event was aimed at gathering local people's vision for their town and area.

"Nobby has a long and proud history as a railway town dating back to the 1860s," Mayor McDonald said.

"While it is home to the nationally recognised author Steele Rudd as well as pioneering polio-treatment nurse Sister Kenny, there is so much more. Councillors want to hear from residents, property owners and businesses about their ideas for the future of Nobby and surrounds," he said.

"We want to hear their aspirational ideas on ways to shape the development of the town and community.

"This is an opportunity for the community to brainstorm their ideas with Councillors and have a conversation about the future of Nobby."

Cr McDonald said there would not be any pre-determined topics for the event and residents are invited to discuss any ideas that fall within Council's area of influence.

"This event will help to give Council a better understanding of the community's needs and aspirations," he said.

Cr McDonald said the event would take the format of an informal conversation with Councillors.

"People will then have the opportunity to have their ideas recorded via giant notepads on tables inside the hall and to then have further conversations on specific topics with Councillors," he said.
