Burra Town Council met in the Mount chambers with His Worship the Mayor and Council members present. The minutes cover time sheets, a potential 6d per mile remuneration for Main Road work, a Butler Day proposal by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, and a decision to join. The council requested fresh estimates for road rebuilding from Railway Station to the main road entrance, and granted drainage work near the National Bank and a wash house project. Other items include shrub removal at the cemetery, a dead roadside tree, and piping to drain damp from a Welsh Place residence.
