Project Information and Background
The City of Adelaide is required under Section 12 of the Local Government Act 1999 to conduct a comprehensive review of its representation structure by June 2021.
The purpose of a Representation Review (the 'Review') is to determine whether the City of Adelaide communities are adequately represented in local government. The first stage of the Review is the preparation of a 'Representation Options Paper', which examines whether Council’s structure (i.e. the composition of elected members in Council and across the council area) provides the most beneficial structure for representation of its community, and whether those communities would benefit from changes to the composition, size or Ward structure of the Council.
