Whittlesea City Council is composed of eleven single-member wards. Prior to the 2024 election, it was composed of three multi-member wards (two four-member, one three-member), but the electoral structure has changed as a result of the Local Government Act 2020.[46]
This is the first election for the City of Whittlesea since 2016, as the council was dismissed and put into administration in March 2020.[47] Four former councillors − Lawrie Cox, Stevan Kozmevksi, Christine Stow and John Fry − contested the 2024 election.[48]
Former Queensland MP Aidan McLindon led a team of 11 candidates known as "Our Community Independents", which included two Liberal Party members.[49][50]
