Numurkah Council Clarifies Highway Building Rules

At the Numurkah Council meeting, landowners abutting the new western national highway may build residences fronting Saxton Street, not the highway. The engineer advised restrictions aim to discourage highway-fronting subdivisions, but owners like A F Bolt may construct homes on Saxton Street frontage without land acquisition. Several budget items, road maintenance plans, and staff appointments were discussed, including drainage, sealing, and graveling works across multiple district roads.

Numurkah Shire To Be Re Valued Controversy Over Valuer Choice

At the Monday council meeting the Numurkah Shire discussed whether to hire a competent valuer for a full re valuation or have the shire secretary with councillor aid perform the task. Only one tender arrived from Mr Gr W English for 450 guineas, while Dr McDonell and Dr Gordon urged keeping the work in house. The secretary warned valuations vary greatly and that outside help may not suit Gippsland properties, leading to a call to re advertise the position. assistants noted potential bias if councillors valued properties, and officials emphasized the need for accurate results and appropriate fees.
