Mayor's message
We've begun a campaign to keep our kids safe by encouraging drivers to do the right thing in school zones. I caught up with Road Safety Officer Andrew Saunders to find out more.

Safer street
A reduction in the speed limit on a busy section of Griffith Road will help to keep pedestrians safe, while also progressing plans to enhance Lavington's CBD as a place to meet.

Cultural connection
The cultural significance of Mungabareena Reserve to the local Aboriginal community has been enshrined by the endorsement of an important management plan for the site.

From the CEO - partnership progress
A report presented to our Councillors last week has shown we’re making significant progress in our historic Two Cities One Community (2C1C) partnership – with much more to look forward to.

From little things, big things grow ...
The former plantation site at 'Waterview', Splitters Creek, will grow into a natural box woodland in years to come, thanks to the efforts of hundreds of local children who've been planting native trees in the area. When the trees grow they'll provide happy homes to native wildlife.

Net gain for players
Albury's netballers are thrilled to have a brand new home, with the redeveloped pavilion at J.C. King Park to be officially opened in a ceremony on Saturday.

Concrete progress
Plastic recycled by Albury residents is literally helping to form the surfaces on which we walk. It's being used to make 'bar chairs' that reinforce new concrete poured in developments across the city.

Flower power brings festival fun for green thumbs
Our beautiful Botanic Gardens will be alive with colour in spring when we host our brand new garden festival - the first-ever 'Gardenesque'. Complete with live music, wine and food, hands-on activities for kids and of course sensational blooms, it will be the biggest garden festival the city's ever seen. We're now looking for partners to help make it a blooming success.
