Coronavirus (COVID-19)
As the impact of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) on the Australian community continues to evolve, Moree Plains Shire Council is taking further steps to protect the safety of our staff, customers and our community.
In terms of the delivery of Council services to the Moree Plains, please be assured that Council has established its own Crisis Management Team from across the organisation to respond quickly to the changing situation and is taking advice and direction from the NSW and Federal Governments. We have been preparing a range of measures to assist us in keeping our community and staff safe while we focus on maintaining the delivery of Council services.
Advice from Federal and NSW Governments
At this time, we strongly urge our residents, businesses, and visitors to keep abreast of information and take advice from the NSW and Federal health authorities.
