History

The Meekatharra Road District was established on 31 October 1909 out of the abolished Peak Hill Road District and Nannine Road District. It lost much of its territory to a reconstituted Nannine Road District on 7 December 1913, but regained much of that when the Nannine district was abolished for a second and final time on 24 January 1930. It became a shire on 1 July 1961 following the passage of the Local Government Act 1960, which reformed all remaining road districts into shires.[2]

Wards

The shire is divided into three wards:

  • Town Ward (five councillors)
  • Nannine Ward (two councillors)
  • Peak Hill Ward (two councillors)
