  • Attachment 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY and RECOMMENDATIONS from REPORT
    Attachment 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS FROM REPORT Local Government Reform in Western Australia – Ensuring the Future Sustainability of Communities EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction The former Minister for Local Government and Regional Development, Hon John Bowler MLA announced in October 2005 that a review of structural and electoral reform would be undertaken by the Local Government Advisory Board (the Board). During the course of the review, the Board consulted with the Western Australian Local Government Association (WALGA) and Local Government Managers Australia (WA Division) (LGMA). It also invited submissions from individual local governments and from the wider community, receiving 233 submissions. Ten public hearings were held around the State. Structural Reform By the early part of the 20th century the fabric of Western Australia's local government structure was largely established. To a significant degree the same local government boundaries remain in place today. While there has been considerable debate for decades about the efficiency and appropriateness of the local government structure, overall there has been relatively little change, notwithstanding dramatic demographic, social and technological changes, and changes in the role of local government. This review of the structure of local government in Western Australia (WA), to ensure the system is robust and sustainable, and can meet the challenges of the future, is therefore timely. In 2006 there are 142 local governments in WA and virtually all of the State is part of a local government area. Local governments vary enormously in size, from 1.5km2 to 378,555km2, and in population from 130 to over 180,000. For non-metropolitan local governments, the median population is 1400, and 67 local governments have populations of less than 2000.

  • 2015 Local Government Ordinary Elections Report
    2015 Local Government Ordinary Elections Election Report April 2016 W ESTERN AUSTRALIAN Electoral Commission Foreword At the October 2015 local government ordinary elections, the Western Australian Electoral Commission was contracted to manage the largest number of postal elections it had ever conducted. In addition to six in person elections, the Commission was asked to run 82 postal elections under the Local Government Act 1995. With voting in local government elections being non-compulsory in Western Australia, postal elections typically result in a higher participation rate by eligible electors than in person ballots, as they offer most electors greater convenience and accessibility. Making the Electoral Commissioner responsible for these elections also enables local government CEOs and staff to remain at arms-length from potentially contentious aspects of the electoral process. Since they were first trialled in 1995, the number of local governments adopting postal elections has progressively increased. The local governments deciding to conduct a postal election in 2015 comprised some 1,433,575 electors, which is about 98% of the State’s total number of eligible electors. At the close of nominations, 964 candidates had nominated for 419 vacancies resulting in 75 separate postal elections. The highest participation rate for postal elections, both for country and metropolitan local governments in 2015 was the Shire of Mt Marshall with 82.7% and the City of Perth with 37.8%, with an overall Statewide participation rate of 27.5%. I would like to acknowledge the efforts of all returning officers and Commission staff in the planning and conduct of the 2015 ordinary elections and each of the local governments for the assistance and cooperation provided by their staff.
