Full title: Roads Run Through: A Concise History of the Geraldton and Greenough Road Boards, the Geraldton-Greenough Road Board, the Shire of Geraldton-Greenough and the Shire of Greenough
The development of local government through the formation of the Greenough and Geraldton Road Boards and their eventual amalgamation into the Shire of Greenough.
While European settlement of this area of the Mid West of Western Australia began in the 1840s, local government didn't arrive until 1868, when a few select residents were given a say in local government after the then Governor appointed district Road Committees to report on rural roads. Previously, the Crown handled communication and infrastructure, represented locally by a Resident Magistrate based in Geraldton. (Introduction)
