1908 Aberdeen Corporation election

An election to the Aberdeen Corporation was held on 3 November 1908, alongside municipal elections across Scotland. 11 of the corporation's 34 seats were up for election, although only 3 were contested.

The primary question in this election was the 'Water Question,' a debate of whether the city should continue to obtain drinking water from the River Dee, or if a new supply should be pulled from River Avon. Many reports had been commissioned over the years, the most recent one from Alexander Binnie and George Deacon in October 1908, which had recommended a new water intake to be constructed on the Avon near the settlement of Inchrory. Issues had been raised over pollutants coming from villages upstream of Aberdeen on the Dee, resulting in some favouring another river, while others felt attached to the Dee, desiring funding to be put towards filtration of the present system. All three Labour candidates supported the Avon scheme, while all three independents supported continuing to use the Dee.
