Shire of Bundanba

The Shire of Bundanba is a former local government area in the south-east of Queensland, Australia. It existed from 1879 to 1916.

The spelling of Bundanba was officially changed to Bundamba in 1932, but the Bundamba spelling was in common use long prior to that.^[1]

History

With the passage of the Local Authorities Act 1902, the Bundanba Division became the Shire of Bundanba on 31 March 1903.^[3]^[4]

The Greater Ipswich Scheme
