PAC cost savings need care

In coming weeks, the Goulburn Mulwaree Council will receive a report on possible cost savings on the construction of a Performing Arts Centre.

 

The current tender price for the Goulburn PAC is $1.6 million dollars over budget.

 

This week's council meeting decided to look for savings on some of the facility's inclusions.

 

Amongst them are a Fly Tower and an orchestra pit.

 

Deputy mayor, Councillor Peter Walker has pointed out that it is entirely possible that Goulburn would become part of a regional network of performing arts centres.

 

He says cost implications have to be considered with care.
