You may be eligible to be enrolled to vote in the local government elections on 18 October 2025 if you live in or are an owner or occupier of rateable property in the Shire of Westonia.

Residents

You are automatically enrolled to vote if you are on the State Electoral Roll as at 5:00pm Friday, 22 August 2025. If you are not already on the State Electoral Roll and meet the eligibility criteria, or if you have changed address recently, you must complete and submit an enrolment form.

You can enrol or update your details online, or download an enrolment form, via the Western Australian Electoral Commission website (www.elections.wa.gov.au/enrol). Forms are also available from the Australian Electoral Commission (www.aec.gov.au). Enrolments and updates must be completed and received by 5:00pm Friday, 22 August 2025.

Non-Resident Owners and Occupiers

If you are a non-resident owner or occupier of rateable property in the Shire of Westonia and are on the State or Commonwealth Electoral Roll, you may be eligible to enrol to vote by lodging an enrolment eligibility claim with the Shire of Westonia.

If a rateable property is owned or occupied by more than two people, a majority of the owners/occupiers may nominate two persons from amongst themselves who are on either the State or Commonwealth Electoral Roll, to enrol as owner/occupier electors.

A body corporate that owns or occupies rateable property may nominate two employees or officers who are on either the State or Commonwealth Electoral Roll to enrol as owner/occupier electors.

If you are not on the State or Commonwealth Electoral Roll and own or occupy rateable property in the Shire of Westonia, were on the last electoral roll for the Shire of Westonia prior to May 1996, and are already enrolled, you continue to retain that status until your enrolment would have otherwise ended.

Contact the Shire of Westonia for an enrolment eligibility claim form, to confirm whether you are already enrolled, or for further information.

An eligibility claim must be lodged with the Chief Executive Officer by 5.00pm Friday, 22 August 2025.
