In a Forbes Municipal Court session the case against Charles Phillip Jones and Ivy Jane Jones for breaches of the Local Government Act over erecting a non compliant building was postponed to November 1 to allow terms of a reached agreement to be carried out. The council and defendants were represented by Mr. Williams and Mr. Meillon respectively. Two demolitions and new lavatories were to be built at a cost of about £36 in legal and court costs. A separate matter against Toohers Ltd. for not obeying a council order was also postponed for a month to permit agreement compliance.
