District Council of Lower Eyre Peninsula
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The District Council of Lower Eyre Peninsula is a local government area on Eyre Peninsula in South Australia.
The main council offices are in Cummins, with a branch office in Port Lincoln, even though Port Lincoln is actually in its own City of Port Lincoln, not covered by the council.
The District Council of Lower Eyre Peninsula traces its history back to the original District Council of Port Lincoln in 1880. It expanded in 1888 and 1890, then separated to form the separate District Council of Tumby Bay in 1906. Then in 1921 the Corporation of Port Lincoln was excised, and the remainder renamed to District Council of Lincoln. The boundary has moved several times since then. The District Council of Lincoln was renamed to Lower Eyre peninsula in 1988.
The official list of localities in the council area [1] is: Big Swamp, Boston, Brimpton Lake, Charlton Gully, Coffin Bay, Coomunga, Coulta, Cummins, Edillilie, Flinders, Green Patch, Kapinnie, Karkoo, Kiana, Lake Wangary, Lincoln, Little Swamp, Louth, Louth Bay, Mitchell, Mortlock, Mount Drummond, Mount Dutton Bay, Mount Hope, North Shields, Poonindie, Proper Bay, Shannon, Sleaford, Sleaford Bay, Stamford, Tod River (Reservoir), Tulka, Uley, Ulipa, Wangary, Wanilla, Warrow, White Flat, Yeelanna
