About

On 25 June 1971 the first Alice Springs Town Coun­cil elec­tion was held. 

Alice Springs became a Munic­i­pal­i­ty on 1 July 1971 and the first meet­ing of Coun­cil was held on 5 July. 

Since then the town has had many rep­re­sen­ta­tive Coun­cils each serv­ing a four-year term and con­tribut­ing towards mak­ing Alice what it is today.
