Shire of Narrogin

The Shire of Narrogin is a local government area in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia, about 190 km south-east of the state capital, Perth. The seat of government is in the town of Narrogin. Until 2016, when the two entities merged, the Narrogin townsite was governed by a separate local government area, the Town of Narrogin.

History
On 19 May 1892, the Narrogin Road District came into being. On 1 July 1961, it became a Shire under the Local Government Act 1960. In 1999 and 2004, proposals to merge the Shire with the Town of Narrogin were defeated at referendum. In 2016, on July 1, the Shire of Narrogin amalgamated with the Town of Narrogin. The new entity retained the designation of Shire.

Wards
Both the Shire and the Town of Narrogin had wards, but they have since been abolished. Nine elected members now sit at large.
