The 2000 New South Wales local elections were held from May to December 2000 elect the councils of local government areas (LGAs) of New South Wales, Australia. The elections were all scheduled to be held on 11 September 1999, but were deferred while possible amalgamations were considered.[1][2]

Background

Deferred elections

This section is an excerpt from 1999 New South Wales local elections § Deferred elections.[edit]

In July 1999, changes were introduced to the Local Government Amendment (Amalgamations and Boundary Changes) Act 1999 to allow for 24 LGAs to defer their elections while voluntary amalgamation proposals were being discussed.[3]

The following LGAs deferred their elections (listed with the LGAs that amalgamations were proposed with):

Election dates

For newly created LGAs, the elections were scheduled several months after the official proclamation and commencement of operations. A number of councils which deferred elections ultimately did not proceed with amalgamations, and also held elections.[4]
