Local Government election

Voting for the 2024 Local Government Elections has now closed. Election results will be announced in the coming weeks as they become available.

All results will be finalised by 15 November 2024.

Change to Hepburn Shire's Electoral Structure

Following a review in 2023, the Minister for Local Government has announced a new electoral structure for Hepburn Shire.

The changes will move our Shire from 5 wards with 7 Councillors, to no wards with 7 Councillors. Voters will be able to vote for any candidate, regardless of where they or the candidate live in the municipality.

The new structure will take effect from the next local government election in October 2024.
