Adelaide Hills Council is divided into two Wards and represented by a Mayor and 12 Council Members elected to represent the community. The Valleys Ward is represented by five Council Members and the Ranges Ward is represented by seven, while the Mayor is elected to represent the entire Adelaide Hills Council area. A Deputy Mayor is elected by Council Members.
The role of the Mayor and Council Members is specified within the Local Government Act 1999, the legislation that provides the framework within which councils operate in South Australia.
Council Members play a vital leadership role by representing the interests of the community and delivering on the vision and strategic direction of the Council.
