Municipality of Spring Bay

The Municipality of Spring Bay was a local government area in Tasmania which existed from 1860 to 1993.

[2] It was proclaimed by Governor Charles Du Cane on 10 September 1860 as the Rural Municipality of Spring Bay.

[1][3] It covered an area of 330,000 acres, with the main towns being Buckland, Orford, Swanston and Triabunna.

[4][5] It was reconstituted as the Municipality of Spring Bay with effect from 2 January 1908 under the Local Government Act 1906, which abolished existing bodies as part of sweeping local government reform but established a municipality of the same name with similar boundaries.

[7] It amalgamated with the Municipality of Glamorgan to form the Glamorgan–Spring Bay Council in April 1993.
