50m Pool Update.

COUNCIL ANNOUNCES STRATEGIC SHIFT FOR 50M POOL
Moree Plains Shire Council has undertaken a strategic review of the Moree Artesian Aquatic Centre (MAAC) redevelopment, ultimately identifying that it is time for a new home for Moree’s 50m pool.

“We are deeply sorry for the length of time it is taking to deliver the 50m pool at the MAAC,” said Mayor, Cr Susannah Pearse.

“We know the community is beyond frustrated.

“Council has taken its obligations to the community seriously, to not only deliver necessary community infrastructure, but also set the region up for long term growth and liveability.

“We have considered the challenges faced at the current site over many years, weighed up the options, and in turn, agreed that it is time to let common sense prevail and look at a new site - one which has also been talked about in the community for some time.”

As such, Council resolved at the Ordinary Council Meeting 20 February 2025 to halt works on the current 50m MAAC site and proceed with a feasibility study for Taylor Oval.

“This decision reflects the Council’s consideration of key factors such as providing high quality and value for ratepayer money infrastructure, driving CBD activation, fostering tourism and economic development, supporting future population growth, and addressing the current needs of our residents.

“While changing course may be challenging, it is a necessary step to ensure the long-term viability and sustainability of this vital community asset,” said Cr Pearse.

In its deliberations, Council also considered the future of the MAAC, noting its historic significance and value to the tourism industry. Cr Pearse reassured the community that “Council is committed to planned improvement works to the hot artesian pools at the MAAC”.

“As part of our review, Council will be exploring the best options to keep the important tourist attraction and significant community asset open.”

Cr Pearse applauded the recently appointed Council in strategically tackling the big issues early on, remarking that “this was not an easy call for the council to make. But it is the right call.”
