Wards and Councillors
The City of Wyndham is divided into three wards (Chaffey, Harrison and Iramoo) and is represented by eleven elected councillors. The Victorian Electoral Commission undertook a representation review in 2011-2012, which resulted in the former Truganina ward being renamed Harrison ward. Ward boundaries were also redrawn.
Victorian Local Government elections were held on Saturday 27 October 2012 and the following were elected as councillors:
- Chaffey ward. Four councillors: Cr Shane Bourke, Cr Gautam Gupta, Cr John Gibbons, Cr Marie Brittan (Deputy Mayor)
- Harrison ward. Four councillors: Cr Bob Fairclough, Cr Glenn Goodfellow, Cr Adele Hegedich, Cr Intaj Khan
- Iramoo ward. Three councillors: Cr Heather Marcus (Mayor), Cr Peter Gibbons, Cr Peter Maynard

“Only by obedience to his genius; only by the freest activity in the way constitutional to him, does an angel seem to arise before a man, and lead him by the hand out of all the wards of the prison.”
