    Address:
    Berwick Shire Council 
    • Grant Wanted For Pakenham Sth. Hall

      Messrs J. Leadoux, R. Stephenson and Crozier waited on last meeting of Berwick Shire Council with a request for co-operation in converting the Pakenham South School building into a iiublic hall which would comply with the Health Department's requirements. In introducing the deputation Cr Houlihan said that after many years of effort the school building had been transferred from the Education Department to the Public Works Department.. He congratulated the' residents on what they had already achieved. , Stating fhat the deputation, on behalf of Pakenham South Scjiool Committee, sought council's co-opera tion in converting the building for use as a Hall, Mr Leadoux said they had £6OO in hand towards the cost of the work—£soo in the form of guarantees from five men and the balance money in'hand! They would be glad if council would call tenders on their behalf. The committee also sought permission to sell the old shelter shed for which they had received an offer of £25. Mr Crozier asked that council apply for a Government grant on a £2 for £1 basis towards the cost of the work. Mr R. Stephenson mentioned that the committee had obtained an estimate for the work and had also considered the possibility of carrying out the work by means of working bees, with a carpenter employed full time. They had been informed, how ever, that if they adopted the latter course they would not be eligible for a Government grant. Cr. Houlihan said it made little difference whether the title was held by the Public Works Dpartment or the council— work must be approved by the council. He assured them that council would give them every consideration. The President. Cr Anderson, also promised that council would give every consideration and would apply for the grant. In thanking council on behalf of the deputation, Mr Stephenson asked, that the application for a grant be made before June 30th.
