Nominating as a candidate for election
Most people who are on the council voters roll can stand for election.
Becoming a councillor is one of the most direct ways that you can influence decisions that affect the quality of life in your local area.
If you are interested in representing the people of your community on council, the Electoral Commission of SA and the LGA(SA) provide a range of resources to help you understand the role and responsibilities of being a councillor.
