Message from the Mayor
Some of the major projects Council delivers for our community get considerable attention – and rightly so. However, we do have a range of smaller annual programs which get little notice but make a big positive grassroots impact. One of these is the Annual Donations Program for which the 2024/25 recipients were recently announced with 32 groups sharing $66,800.25. Eight of them are from Barraba!

There are also actions to improve parking in Manilla and Barraba.
