It means Cabonne's councillors will now be paid about half what Orange and Bathurst councillors receive.

A recommendation to Tuesday's council meeting is for the annual fee paid to each councillor to remain at $12,160 and the mayoral fee remain at $26,530 as determined by the Local Government Remuneration Tribunal.

It is the maximum amount set for local government areas categorised as Rural councils.

Orange councillors have voted to receive the maximum level of $24,320 and the mayor's allowance of $60,080.

Blayney's councillors receive the same allowances as Cabonne.

Meanwhile, Cabonne council will consider waiving the cost of its food premises inspections to help out 90 businesses in the community.

A report to council said businesses who sold food paid $120 for the annual inspection plus a $50 administration fee.

"It is suggested however that as a goodwill gesture to the Cabonne business houses that the council consider waiving or reducing the annual inspection fee during the current COVID pandemic," the report said.

The gesture would cost council $10,800 for the inspections plus $4500 in administration fees.

However, if premises need a follow-up inspection a further $150 fee is paid by the business, which council does not intend to waive.

The meeting will also debate a recommendation to join a strategic alliance with Orange and Blayney councils to share resources and equipment.

The other two councils have already agreed to join the alliance.

A report to Cabonne's meeting said it had been a founding member of a previous alliance dating back to 2004.

"Blayney, Cabonne and Orange City have worked collaboratively on a number of strategic documents over the past few years including the Regional Economic Development Strategy and the BCO Sub-Regional Rural and Industrial Land Strategy," it said.

"Pooling tourism and destination marketing resources to establish Orange360 is an example of what councils working together can achieve."

Meanwhile a proposal by the Cudal Community Children's Centre to extend its playground to include a grassed area fenced-off behind the Cudal Community Hall has been put on public exhibition by the council until August 25.
