City of Palmerston

City of Palmerston governs essential community services such as waste management, domestic animal management, playgrounds and recreational facilities, and the city’s library.

Palmerston does not operate under a ward system with each Councillor serving the entire local community, rather than a specific region within the municipality. Palmerston was originally governed by the Palmerston Development Authority, which later became the Palmerston Town Council, was designated a City in 2000 and became Palmerston City Council and now is known as the City of Palmerston.
