History[edit]
Quairading was initially constituted as the Greenhills Road District in 1892, covering a large area east of York. In 1913, Greenhills was broken up to form Avon, East Avon (Bruce Rock) and Kunjinn (Corrigin). In 1922 the Avon Road District was renamed to Quairading, and on 1 July 1961, it became a Shire under the Local Government Act 1960.[2]
Wards[edit]
The Shire is no longer divided into wards and the nine councillors sit at large. Prior to the 2003 elections, there were eleven councillors representing five wards: Town (3), Southwest, Southeast, Northwest and Northeast (2 each).
