Plebiscite - Grant and Mount Gambier
The Electoral Commission of South Australia conducted a plebiscite in the District Council of Grant and the City of Mount Gambier that asked voters whether they agree, or not, that an amalgamation of their councils should be examined.
A separate ballot paper was included in the 2022 Council Elections ballot pack that voters received.
The purpose of the non-binding plebiscite is to obtain voters' views on the proposition. The Government is not compelled to take action following the outcome of the plebiscite.
