The Shire of Northam is conducting a review of its system of representation and invites public participation in the review.
The number of elected members, ward boundaries and the no ward structure will be assessed though this does not limit the matters that members of the community can raise in relation to the system of representation in the Shire.
This assessment will take into account the views of the community and outline any other matters that may be considered.
A discussion paper is available outlining the current situation and available on the Shire of Northam website at www.northam.wa.gov.au.
