Wyndham City Council
The City of Wyndham is divided into three wards (Harrison, Chaffey and Iramoo) and is represented by eleven elected councillors. The Victorian Electoral Commission undertook a representation review in 2011–2012, which resulted in the former Truganina ward being renamed Harrison ward. Ward boundaries were also redrawn.[1] The council has adopted a portfolio system for councillors from 2013 onward.
