Council says progress is being made on town eyesores

ARARAT Rural City Council admits two sites in central Ararat surrounded by scaffolding are a frustration, but progress in being made. Scaffolding has remained in place for close to two years around two burnt out shops at the Woolworths complex and another shop at the corner of Barkly and Vincent Streets. Council says it remains committed to placing public safety first as repair work continues the privately owned buildings.
