In 2024, Kangaroo Island Council completed an Elector Representation Review which is a formal process under Section 12 of the Local Government Act 1999 to review all aspects of Council's composition, including the division, or potential division, of the council area into wards. In reviewing the representation arrangements, in consultation with the community, the Council resolved to retain the current structure being:
- The principal member of the Council shall be a Mayor elected by the electors for the area.
- The Council area will not be divided into wards.
- The future elected body of Council will comprise the Mayor and nine (9) area councillors, all of whom will represent the whole of the Council area and shall be elected by the community at a council-wide election.
A copy of the final Representation Review Report (which sets out Council's preferred representation agreements) was certified by the Electoral Commissioner of South Australia and is available below.
