The Goondiwindi Region is a local government area located in the Darling Downs region of Queensland, Australia along the state's border with New South Wales. Established in 2008, it was preceded by three previous local government areas which dated back to the 19th century. It has an estimated operating budget of A$26.1 million. == History == The Goondiwindi Region began as three separate entities: the Town of Goondiwindi, the Shire of Waggamba and the Shire of Inglewood. Inglewood and Waggamba began as two of Queensland's 74 divisions created under the ''Divisional Boards Act 1879'' on 11 November 1879. The Municipality of Goondiwindi was proclaimed under the ''Local Government Act 1878'' on 20 October 1888. They became shires, and a town, respectively on 31 March 1903 under the ''Local Authorities Act 1902''. In July 2007, the Local Government Reform Commission released its report and recommended that the three areas amalgamate. On 15 March 2008, the Town and Shires formally ceased to exist, and elections were held on the same day to elect councillors and a mayor to the Regional Council. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Goondiwindi Region」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
