Arguably the most troubled local council in the region struggling with massive financial issues, it is also the only one to use a five-ward system usually only seen in very large councils to ensure that each part of the geographic area is represented. There have been some minor changes to the boundaries of the wards this year. An interactive map with voting information is on the NSW Electoral commission website.
Two councillors are elected from each of the five wards, also making it the council with the largest number of elected members. Ward B is uncontested meaning that Roger Turner and mayor Bronwyn Petrie have already been declared elected.
All candidates are shown in the order they will appear on the ballot. Candidate biographies are only included from those candidates who have supplied them.
See the NSW Electoral Commission’s website for where and how to vote information.
We will update this page through to when the winners are declared.
