History

Nunawading was originally part of the Nunawading Road District,[1] which was incorporated on 7 August 1857. The district was renamed the Shire of Nunawading on 4 May 1872. On 26 May 1925, the Shire of Blackburn and Mitcham (sometimes referred to as Blackburn-Mitcham) came into being, when the eastern two-thirds of the district seceded; the western part went on to become the City of Box Hill. The shire was proclaimed as the City of Nunawading on 30 May 1945.[2]

On 15 December 1994, the City of Nunawading was abolished, and along with the City of Box Hill, was merged into the newly created City of Whitehorse.[3]

Council meetings were held at the Nunawading Town Hall, on Whitehorse Road, Nunawading. It is used today for the same purpose by the City of Whitehorse.
