MAYORS MAKE COMM GAMES BID
HAWKESBURY Mayor Sarah McMahon has backed an unusual bid to host the Commonwealth Games in Western Sydney, despite lacking any support from the council or the NSW state government. The announcement, boldly shared on the Hawkesbury City Council’s official mayor’s Facebook site, occurred without any democratic vote or agreement from the council. Mayor McMahon’s blatant disregard for due process has left ratepayers stunned. “If Dan Andrews can’t do it – then Western Sydney surely can! And to start making the case, today Ned Mannoun – Mayor of Liverpool and I joined forces to say that the 2026 Commonwealth Games belong in our backyard,” Cr Mahon wrote, encouraging readers to tune onto commercial television nightly news last night, to see her in action. “With the new Western Sydney International Airport on the way, billions of dollars in roads and rail rolling out and with a very capable Sydney Olympic Park in Homebush, CommBank Stadium in Parramatta and Penrith Regatta Centre already built for example, we have the necessities to make it happen!”

HAWKESBURY GAZETTE CLOSES AFTER 135 YEARS
ONE of Australia's oldest regional newspapers, the Hawkesbury Gazette, is the latest victim of the ongoing collapse of regional mastheads across the country and has ceased publication after 135 years. It is understood that the decision was made at least a month ago by the publications owner Australian Community Media who bought the publications from Fairfax Media (now Nine Entertainment). The Gazette started publication as the Windsor and Richmond Gazette in 1888 by John Charles Lucas Fitzpatrick and continued until 1982, when the name was changed to the Hawkesbury Gazette.
