Information is presented on location, date of resumption, gazette folio, plan number, deed book folio, and references to files in Town Clerk's Correspondence Files (AS-0034), and Acts of Parliament. The first page is concerned with resumptions in the Camperdown area, the rest is a complete list of resumptions for the City area. The entries are arranged chronologically according to date of resumption. This includes resumptions 1 to 20 for Camperdown and 1 to 268 for the rest of the City area.

2. PURCHASES 1 to 613 (25 March 1868 - 7 August 1981)

This series maintains a record of Council proposals to acquire property, the Deed Registers (AS-1085) however document the acquisition, deed packet numbers and title to the property.

It is not clear when this register was first compiled but it appears to have been around the late 1940s. The starting date has been taken as 1 January 1949 when the Council boundaries were increased to take in the surrounding municipalities.Relationship summaryRELATED TO: Road construction and maintenance AY-0047 (01/03/1911 to 21/02/1949)
