For governance purposes, the entire parish is part of the town of the Municipal District of St. Stephen,[5] which is a member of the Southwest New Brunswick Service Commission.[6]

Prior to the 2023 governance reform, it comprised a single local service district (LSD), which was a member of the Southwest New Brunswick Service Commission (SNBSC).[7]
