Hundred of Kulpara

The District Council of Green's Plains was established in 1871, bringing the hundreds of Kadina and Kulpara under local administration for the first time. In 1888 the new District Council of Kadina absorbed all of Green's Plains as well as surrounding unincorporated lands in the hundreds of Moonta and Wallaroo. On 1 July 1890 the District Council of Kulpara was established to locally govern the Hundred of Kulpara independent of Kadina council. In 1932, due to flagging population, Kulpara council was abolished and the Paskeville ward (the western third of the hundred) was returned to Kadina council while the remainder (the eastern two thirds of the hundred) was absorbed by the District Council of Bute.

Kadina district council ultimately became part of the District Council of Northern Yorke Peninsula in 1977, which included both the township of Moonta and Kadina district, and then part of the District Council of the Copper Coast in 1997, which included the slightly larger township of Wallaroo with the rest of the Copper Coast district.

Bute district council ultimately became part of the District Council of Barunga West in 1997 by amalgamation with the District Council of Port Broughton.
