Local Land Board Meets to Review Crown Land Appraisals
The Local Land Board of Gloucester met on 30 July 1986 chaired by F. J. Peake. Crown officers and board members reviewed appraisements for CP 28/19 CP 24/28 CL 23/6 and related rent values, with withdrawals and postponements noted for several Crown Lease cases. The board also considered a forestry road proposal near Nerong, weighing timber access, road alignment, and costs, ultimately finding no justification to open a road through Flannery's property while allowing a further evidentiary request to the Local Law Board if needed.
