The Cairns Regional Council Area: A History

Cairns Regional Council area is a municipality in Far North Queensland. It was established in 1885 and merged with the Mulgrave Shire Council in 1995.
The Council was actually founded as the Cairns Divisional Board. As a result of the passage of the Local Authorities Act of 1902, Cairns Municipal Council became Cairns Town Council on 31 March 1903. Cairns grew strongly. As a result the name was changed to City Council on 12 October 1923.

'They called it paradise, I don't know why. They call some place paradise, and kis it goodbye' (The Eagles). I grew up here in the late 60's and early 70's, and every time I think of these lyrics, I think of my hometown. Because that is exactly what happened to Cairns.
