1974 Shetland Islands Council election

Tulloch Independent Elections to the Shetland Islands Council were held on 7 May 1974 as part of Scottish local elections.

This was the first election for the all-purpose Shetland Islands Council, as established by the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973, combining the Lerwick Town Council and the Zetland County Council.

The Council operated as a shadow authority until May 1975, when it assumed full responsibilities for local government in Shetland.

11 seats were uncontested.
