History
The original Yalgoo Road District was gazetted on 3 July 1896, and abolished and divided between the Mount Magnet Road District and Upper Irwin Road District on 11 August 1911.[2][3]
The Shire of Yalgoo originates from the establishment of the second Yalgoo Road District on 19 April 1912, which was formed out of parts of the Mount Magnet, Upper Irwin and Murchison road boards.[2][4] On 1 July 1961, it became the Shire of Yalgoo under the Local Government Act 1960, which reformed all remaining road districts into shires.[2]
Wards
The Shire is no longer divided into wards and the seven councillors sit at large.
