Local government

On 28 November 1878 the District Council of Port Wakefield was established, incorporating the entire Hundred of Inkerman as well as the western two thirds of the Hundred of Goyder and a small coastal portion of the Hundred of Clinton near the Wakefield port.[3]

In 1983 the Port Wakefield council amalgamated with the councils of Balaklava and Owen bringing the hundred under the local governance of the District Council of Wakefield Plains. Then in 1997 Wakefield Plains and Blyth-Snowtown councils merged bringing the hundred into the much larger Wakefield Regional Council as a part of its Central ward.

gollark: It still seems implausibly high.

gollark: Is that gigabit or gigabyte?
gollark: Making downloading costly can be explained by accursed copyright weirdness. Video for no apparent reason is very ???.
