Impounded heifer from Bunbury pound awaits claim before sale to cover expenses. Various notices include extraordinary road board election deadlines, tenders for Stirling Estate Lot B83, school additions and public works, and a charity concert at Lyric Theatre with proceeds for school funds.
The Bunbury property owners consider a municipal purchase of a stretch of country bordering the town. Advocates argue the land offers unique advantages including low rates, desirable land, and wide public uses. A vote on the proposal is to be taken today.
A draft plan outlines 170 acres including swamp and sandhills to be acquired as a public reserve. It would define boundaries from Picton Hill reservoir to Punchbowl locality with a wide coast edge, offering space for a large park, gardens, and outdoor games aided by a cheap water supply. The proposal urges public referendum to grant purchase authority and fund via next municipal loan.
