History
[edit]The Toodyay Road District was established on 24 January 1871. The Newcastle (later Toodyay) townsite separated as the Municipality of Newcastle on 2 October 1877. The municipality merged back into the road district on 8 March 1912. On 1 July 1961, Toodyay became a shire under the Local Government Act 1960, which reformed all remaining road districts into shires.[2]
Wards
[edit]The Shire has been divided into 4 wards, since the Toodyay Road board meeting in June 1904.[3]
- North Ward (2 councillors)
- Central Ward (2 councillors)
- West Ward (3 councillors)
- East Ward (2 councillors)
