Buckley Drainage Board Minute Books

This series contains the minutes of the meetings of the Buckley Drainage Board from 1924 to the disolution of the Board in 1959. The earlier minutes of the Board for 1913-1923 are missing. The minutes are a record of decisions reached on financing the Board’s work, correspondence received from outside organisations and people and demands from the public and complaints dealt with. They provide a legal framework for the operation of the Board and underpin all other records kept. They are arranged in meeting date order and there are no indexes. Meetings were run as formal committee meetings with notices of motion moved, seconded and voted on.
