Most Team Hill councillors sought re-election. Verena Coombe (Division 6) and Colleen Doyle (Division 9) retired, while Paul Jacob (Division 2) left Team Hill in 2019 to sit as an independent. He did not seek re-election.

Former MP Sam Cox announced in November 2019 that he would run for mayor as an independent, with a focus on a "back to basics" council.

Greg Dowling, a former United Australia Party (UAP) candidate and professional rugby league footballer, also ran for mayor on the "It's Time for Townsville" ticket. He was officially endorsed by UAP founder Clive Palmer, who spent $625,000 on supporting Dowling's campaign.
