Enroll to vote in the City of Perth elections

The City of Perth biennial elections are to be held on October 21. Enrollment to vote closes on September 1, 2017. 

At each biennial election, half the City of Perth Councillors are elected for terms of four years. Four Councillors were elected in October 2013 and now stand for re-election (Crs Harley, Limnios, McEvoy and Yong).

Who can vote in the City of Perth elections?

The roll for an election consists of:

  1. Perth residents roll – this comprises individuals who live in the City of Perth electorate and who are enrolled on the State Electoral Roll;
  2. City of Perth non-resident owners and occupiers roll – this comprises individuals who own (but do not reside in) or occupy rateable property in the City and of individuals nominated by companies that own or occupy rateable property in the City.

 Does my business qualify?

The initial test to determine if an organisation is a body corporate is to determine whether the body has an Australian Company Number by searching through ASIC information. There are other bodies that do not have an Australian Company Number that qualify as bodies corporate.
