Hills Shire Mayor Dr Michelle Byrne joined fellow Mayors from across Sydney and NSW to call on the NSW Government to adopt a new approach to infrastructure funding.

Right now, outdated funding models mean essential infrastructure like roads, parks and services often lag behind new housing developments, placing pressure on growing communities.

The proposed model calls for a $5 billion interest-free loan facility for councils, $3 billion in forward funding for State and regional infrastructure in growth areas, and updates to allow developer contributions to fund a wider range of community infrastructure.
