Golden Plains Shire Council countback

There is a vacancy on Golden Plains Shire Council after Councillor Lachlan Glen resigned on Sunday 8 December.

We will fill this through a countback of all the votes from the Golden Plains Shire Council election held in October 2024. This countback will include all remaining eligible candidates who were not elected at that election. 

Countback details

We will stream the countback online through Microsoft Teams at 10:30 am on Monday 13 January 2025.

We’ll share a link to watch the countback from 10 am on Monday 13 January.
