A community meeting for Uranquinty residents to discuss proposed levee upgrades is scheduled for 6.30pm on Tuesday 13 August 2024, at the Uranquinty Community Hall.

Hosted by Wagga Wagga City Council in collaboration with Royal Haskoning DHV (RHDHV) and supported by the Uranquinty Progress Association, the meeting will include:

  • A presentation regarding the proposed levee upgrades
  • A briefing of the current status of the overall project
  • Community access to material from previous studies and reports, including modelling maps of past and future flood scenarios
