Lyndhurst Shire Council Engineer's Report
The Lyndhurst Shire Council reports actions since the last meeting. A second-hand pump and fittings were bought for £3 for the Carcour Well and installed promptly. The Carcour Hospital pump was repaired per instructions. A proposed forage vault plan by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Ltd was reviewed and recommended for approval. An inspection with the President and Divisional Engineer discussed the 1942 Main Roads Programme. The Hines track dispute shows the track cannot handle current vehicular traffic. Hines seeks permanent approval for light traffic and agricultural machinery, to be considered with Mr Bardsley’s undertaking. The 1942 Main Roads Programme requires a Council contribution, suggested at £1,400, with a sub-committee handling final approvals.
