SALEYARDS NOT FOR SALE, COUNCIL SAYS

Richmond Valley Council has rejected claims it’s looking to sell the Casino saleyards.

It follows a community meeting earlier this week, in which concerns about the site’s future were raised.

General Manager, Vaughn Macdonald, says council is currently considering two options – a $14-million re-development, or a $7-million upgrade.

In either case, he says the saleyards will remain in public hands.

Councillors are set to make a decision on plans for the site when they meet next Tuesday.
