Parramatta. City's vital role

Some of the state’s prominent industry leaders discussed at an economic development forum earlier, in Parramatta, this year what was required to firmly cement Parramatta as Sydney’s “central” city. “It was universally agreed that Parramatta, and Western Sydney, had a key role to play when it came to managing the future growth of wider Sydney. We established that in order for Sydney to evolve as a sustainable and successful global city, infrastructure investment and economic development in Western Sydney was vital,” said Clr John Chedid, when stepping down as lord mayor of Parramatta.
