Work on the Mallanganee observatory project is expected to start within the first three months of next year.
At the Kyogle Council meeting on Monday, December 9, the meeting went into confidential to discuss the tender for the construction of the Mallanganee observatory at the Mallanganee Lookout.
The council chose the tender from Frontier Assembly to build the observatory at a cost of $2,730,273.
The company is based in Fairy Hill and has constructed the Echo Point Lookout in the Blue Mountains, the steps at The Pass Lookout and the bridges on the Casino to Bentley Rail Trail.
Kyogle Council will add an extra $578,000 to the current budget for the build.
