Boggabri is set to benefit from new doctors’ housing after Narrabri Shire councillors endorsed a request from Boggabri Coal Operations to relocate two of its 20 required houses from Narrabri to the town.
The move will allow for the construction of two single-storey dwellings aimed at supporting medical services in Boggabri, where demand for doctors’ housing remains.
Director Development and Compliance Kate Alberry told councillors there is still a need for doctors’ housing in Boggabri.
Speaking to the motion, Councillor Ryan Whillas said the need had been recognised on the council’s Resolution Register since 2021 and emphasised the positive impact the new housing would have on the Boggabri community.
