How a district council works
A district council serves several local municipalities together.
Elected on the district ballot
Voters choose a party on a separate district PR ballot.
From local councils
Local councils elect representatives from their own councillors to serve on the district council.
Its work includes district-wide planning and shared services. Adding local council results together does not give the district council’s result.

Local, district or metro?
Local services, shared district services: who does what?
Your town and nearby areas
Handles local services such as refuse collection and local roads, with responsibilities shared with the district.
Several local municipalities
Coordinates planning and shared services across its area, such as bulk water infrastructure. Functions vary by area.
One council for a large city
Combines local and district responsibilities. There is no separate district council above it.
A district municipality is a level of local government. A voting district is a small voting area; it has no council of its own.
