Scheme for Proposed Tramline on Murrindindi Road
The Shire Council debated financing and legality of a mill tramline along Murrindindi Road to serve nearby sawmills. The Shire Engineer outlined cost estimates, potential revenue, and maintenance needs while discussions considered borrowing under the Tramways Act or alternative funding, with mill owners possibly contributing and the council seeking funds from public works or debentures. The joint feasibility hinged on whether money could be borrowed, approval from authorities, and securing multiple mill owners’ participation.

Arwarby Estate Sold To Private Buyers Near Yea
The Arwarby Estate comprising 1903 acres near Yea on the Yea river was sold to Adam Anders William Anderson and Mrs F G Porcall from the Gh in Ghin Ghish estate. The land is highly improved wire-netted and free from rabbits with 30 acres of river flats. the sale sparked disappointment among returned soldiers who hoped government purchase would allow them to settle there. Local officials had pressed for government intervention, with repeated efforts since 1918, but ultimately the estate went to private buyers, as public sentiment urged government action to buy and allocate land for soldiers. A deputation urged ministers Angl iv and McKenzie to re consider, and a public meeting may influence future steps.
