E066/2025 Expression of Interest – Proposed activation of Ray Walsh House

Tamworth Regional Council invites interested parties to lodge an Expression of Interest (EOI) for the Proposed Activation of the Ray Walsh House building at 435-437 Peel Street in Tamworth, NSW.

The Expression of Interest should include sufficient details to enable Council to fully understand the intended future use of the site and estimated purchase price to be offered, if a sale is part of the submission, or an estimated rental amount, if a lease is contemplated as part of the submission.

The request for Expression of Interest has been issued in the context of Council ensuring that the development of the site is consistent with Council’s vision of Blueprint 100 and development in the Tamworth region as a major and vibrant regional centre.

Ray Walsh House is the former Administration Centre of Tamworth Regional Council. Information is provided in this EOI about the building to the best of Council’s knowledge. Council is interested in all proposals for the sale and proposed use of the building which may include demolition and\or the leasing of office space back to Council under a long-term lease.

EOIs must fully detail the nature of the development being proposed. Detailed concept plans are not required as part of expressing an interest in the purchase of the site provided that the detail provided clearly describes the development being proposed. It should be noted that no proposal which includes a service station, supermarket or combination thereof will be considered by Council.

• To see the full guidelines, please see the EOI document at portal.tenderlink.com/tamworth
• The closing date for all EOIs is 11am AEST, Thursday 26 June 2025
