Penrith. Too many studies, too few results

Penrith has spent too much money on too many studies for too few results, according to the Penrith City Centre Association. "An untold number of reports and studies have been undertaken over the years on all sorts of things,” association manager Gladys Reed, said. "But we haven't seen any real changes or benefits. It's time for some action.” Ms Reed said Penrith City Council needed to help draw investment to the city by developing relationships with businesses and deciding what development was appropriate for the CBD.
