The Shire of Hastings was a local government area about south-southeast of Melbourne, the state capital of Victoria, Australia, encompassing the eastern extremity of the Mornington Peninsula. The shire covered an area of , and existed from 1960 until 1994. ==History== The Mornington Road District was created on 6 November 1860, and became a shire on 24 November 1871. On 31 May 1893, it was renamed the Shire of Frankston and Hastings, and lost its western riding to the New Mornington Shire, which itself was later renamed the Shire of Mornington. On 19 October 1960, the Central and Eastern Ridings of the Shire of Frankston were severed and, with parts of the Eastern Riding of the Shire of Flinders, was incorporated as the Shire of Hastings.〔 Accessed at State Library of Victoria, La Trobe Reading Room.〕 On 15 December 1994, the Shire of Hastings was abolished, and, along with the Shires of Flinders and Mornington, and a small part of the City of Frankston, was merged into the newly created Shire of Mornington Peninsula. ''The Age'' reported in July 1994 that the result had been supported by Hastings and Mornington councils from the beginning, but opposed by Flinders, which wanted to merge with the southern coastal section of Hastings. Council formerly met at the Shire Offices, at High Street and Marine Parade, Hastings. The facility is still used today by the Shire of Mornington Peninsula. 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「Shire of Hastings」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
