Your elected Council...

Newcastle City Council was formed in April 1938 with the merger of Adamstown, Carrington, Hamilton, Lambton. Merewether, Newcastle, New Lambton, Stockton, Wallsend, Waratah and Wickham Councils.

Newcastle is divided into 4 wards for Council elections, with each ward electing 3 Councillors. The Lord Mayor is elected on a separate ballot for the entire four-year term of Council. So your elected Council has 12 Councillors and the Lord Mayor. The next local government election is in September 2012. I was elected in March 2003.
