Healesville Shire Council Rats Out Local Issues
At the Healesville Shire Council meeting Mrs Ada Mowle offered to cooperate on crushed rock supply for Toolangi district and the supper room was made available for Red Cross Emergency Service meetings. A fatal Badger Creek Baker's roads crash prompted a call for remedial action, to be referred to the public works committee. A permit was granted to Mrs Oakley to build a room, and blackberries near Mrs McGlynn’s property were to be cleared at ratepayers’ expense. A motion to rescind the December 1942 ruling on a patriotic club was carried.
