I am reliably informed a “panel” tender” was released recently for contractors to push up gravel at Council pits.
Supposedly ads were placed in local newspapers (which in all likelihood means only the Hilltops Phoenix).
Previous contractors were not advised by email correspondence of the tender process and some have now been excluded despite having credentials that would provide the optimum outcome for ratepayers.
All decisions are being controlled from the Young office of Council who want to take a gravel crusher to the pits to waste more ratepayer money.
Pity help anyone with common sense, the desire to save money and achieve the best outcome for ratepayers.

The use of contractors with powerful dozers will “win” gravel that can be used without the need for crushing.
A pad-foot roller will suffice to crush the gravel as it is spread.
Pity help anyone with common sense, the desire to save money and achieve the best outcome for ratepayers.
Administrator Tuckerman was correct in not appointing me to the $11,000 head nodding committee.
I would not have been willing to sit there and shut up after having been made sign a confidentiality agreement.
It is very clear Chris Manchester isn’t concerned by any of these issues.
His comments in last week’s paper said it all.
The cost of unwinding the merger should be the last of Chris Manchester’s concerns.
The NSW Government has wontly wasted money, told lies and done everything possible to ignore ratepayers on a doomed merger that will do nothing for Harden or Boorowa.
Indeed they are already losing their autonomy and decision making ability.
Any benefits will go back to Sydney when grant funds are redistributed from rural councils to the city when votes are needed.
