The Municipality of Albany was gazetted in 1871. It was initially headed by a chairman, with William Finlay becoming the first mayor in 1885.[2] [3] [4]
The Albany Road Board was gazetted in 1896. On 1 July 1961, they became respectively the Town of Albany and Shire of Albany councils following changes to the Local Government Act.[2]
The City of Albany was established on 1 July 1998 with the amalgamation of the Town of Albany and the Shire of Albany .[2]
A new administration building and Civic Centre was constructed and opened in 2005 on North Road.[5]
