History
The Gingin Road District was established on 12 January 1893. 11 days later, on 23 February 1893, the township of Gingin separated as the Municipality of Gingin. The municipality merged back into the road district on 26 June 1903.[2]
On 1 July 1961, it became a shire following the passage of the Local Government Act 1960, which reformed all remaining road districts into shires.[2]
Wards
The Shire had been divided into several wards, most with one councillor: This was changed to a no ward system in 2013.
