Council Elections

Council Elections are an important part of the democratic framework of Australia and provide an opportunity every four years for communities to elect a Council that will represent their best interests.

Local Government is an important part of the democratic framework of Australia. The community elect their council representatives every four years, with the next Council Election to be held in November 2022.

Voting in local government elections is open to a broader range of people than for State and Federal elections. Even if you are not an Australian citizen, and not on the State (House of Assembly) Electoral Roll, you can vote as long as you are over 18 years of age. You can also nominate to stand for election as a Council Member.
