The Honourable Robert Schwarten
CHARTERS TOWERS WATCH HOUSE TO GET NEW LOOK
Public Works Minister Robert Schwarten today announced more than $19,000 in funding to repaint the exterior of the watch house at the Charters Towers Police Station.
Mr Schwarten said the funding – from the Department of Public Works’ emergency maintenance fund – was great news for the community.
“This funding demonstrates the State Government’s commitment to properly maintaining public infrastructure for the benefit of the community,” Mr Schwarten said.
“The work will be completed as soon as possible.”
Mr Schwarten said the emergency maintenance fund was developed to complement existing maintenance programs.
QBuild – the State Government’s construction and maintenance division – will manage the project.
