List of mayors of Armadale
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The City of Armadale in Perth, Western Australia was originally established on 14 December 1894 as the Kelmscott Road District, with a chairman and councillors, under the District Roads Act 1871. It was renamed "Armadale-Kelmscott Road District" on 24 March 1910. With the passage of the Local Government Act 1960, all road districts became Shires, with a president and councillors, effective 1 July 1961. On 1 July 1979, the Shire of Armadale-Kelmscott became the Town of Armadale, with a mayor and councillors, and on 15 November 1985 it became a City.[1]
