History[edit]
Nungarin road board offices 1922-1936
Initially, Nungarin was governed by the Kellerberrin Road Board. In 1911, responsibility for the area was transferred to the Merredin Road Board. In 1921, the Nungarin Road District was gazetted, which extended north into the present Mount Marshall Shire. In 1933 it lost over three-quarters of its land area with the formation of Mukinbudin Road District. On 1 July 1961, it became the Shire of Nungarin under the Local Government Act 1960.[2]
