Switch to LED street lighting saves millions across Western Sydney
The implementation of an LED street lighting program throughout Western Sydney has resulted in substantial savings for ratepayers and a significant reduction in carbon emissions. This initiative, alongside others, has collectively had an impact comparable to removing 124,585 cars from the road annually.
The recent annual report from the Western Sydney Regional Organisation of Councils (WSROC), representing councils in Greater Western Sydney, highlights the remarkable success of the Western Sydney Energy Program. Barry Calvert, WSROC President and Deputy Mayor of Hawkesbury, said, “Contributing to the savings has been the rollout of modern high-tech LED street lighting across the eight council areas.”

Hawkesbury City Council (HCC) has positioned itself as the second Sydney council bidding to assert control over the media and public discussion by proposing a contentious media engagement strategy.
This strategy has raised concerns, as it empowers the council to cherry-pick the media organisations it interacts with, potentially leading to a skewed narrative.
The Local & Independent News Association (LINA), a national industry group representing independent news publishers, has strongly urged Hawkesbury City Council (HCC) to revise its media policy. LINA wants the policy to align with established industry benchmarks and State government guidelines, ensuring transparency and impartiality in media interactions.
