<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The Brisbane City Council ward layer is the spatial representation of the recommendation of the Local Government Change Commission during the 2019 review of divided Local Government Areas. Ward boundaries were realigned to ensure, as best as possible, that each ward contains "a reasonable proportion of electors" (the quota) at the 2020 quadrennial local government elections. Ward boundaries were created with input from the general public obtained through public submissions during public consultation of the review.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Brisbane City Council ward boundaries were created by aggregating Statistical Area Level 1 (SA1) polygons while satisfying the requirement for wards to have "a reasonable proportion of electors" at the 2020 elections, and taking into consideration features such as transport infrastructure, natural features, and cadastral and suburb boundaries. Ward boundaries were aligned to significant, named features where possible. Where practicable, the Change Commission sought to reunite previously split localities and SA1s, to create administrative and operational efficiencies in electoral roll administration.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The 2020 Brisbane City Council ward boundaries remain unchanged for the 2024 quadrennial local government elections. While no formal changes occurred between the 2020 and 2024 boundaries, alignment variations may exist due to accuracy upgrades to the spatial cadastre, to which the divisional boundaries are aligned.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
