+WE HAVE JUST HAD THE CENTRAL AND WESTERN DISTRICT FESTIVAL WHICH HAD THE SUPPORT OF THE COMMUNITY AT LARGE, AND NO DOUBT IT HAS FURTHER ENHANCED THE SENSE OF DISTRICT IDENTITY AMONG LOCAL RESIDENTS, HE TOLD THE BOARD MEMBERS.
DESCRIBING THE BOARD AS +VERY ACTIVE+, MR WIGGHAM SAID IT HAD SET UP VARIOUS WORKING GROUPS TO LOOK INTO THE SHORTFALL OF CHILDREN AND YOUTH CENTRES, TO IMPROVE SERVICES PROVIDED FOR THE ELDERLY, AND TO LOOK INTO THE PROBLEM OF TRAFFIC CONGESTION ALONG THE KENNEDY TOWN PRAYA.
