History
Shire of Broomehill
The Broomehill Road Board was gazetted on 19 May 1892. On 1 July 1961, it became a shire following changes to the Local Government Act.[2]
Shire of Tambellup
The Tambellup Road Board was gazetted in 1905 upon a petition by local residents to separate from the Broomehill Road District. On 1 July 1961, it became a shire following changes to the Local Government Act.[2]
Amalgamation
On 3 September 2007, the Local Government Advisory Board confirmed that the Shires of Broomehill and Tambellup were looking to merge. A proposal put forward by the Shire of Katanning to absorb Woodanilling, Broomehill and Tambellup was rejected by the other councils. A six-week public submission period was conducted in November and December 2007.
On 8 February 2008, the two Shires held a combined special meeting and resolved to recommend to the Board, who had originally proposed a system without wards, that the new Shire have two wards—North Ward, with four councillors, representing Broomehill, and South Ward, with five councillors, representing Tambellup.[3] The Minister accepted the proposal on 17 April 2008, and the Broomehill-Tambellup District Order 2008 was approved by the Governor in Council on 27 May 2008.[4]
The councillors of both local government authorities resigned at the end of June 2008, and elections for the new local government took place on 18 October 2008.[5]
Wards
The Shire is divided into two wards—North Ward, with four councillors, representing Broomehill, and South Ward, with five councillors, representing Tambellup.
