District Council of Terowie

The council comprised the cadastral Hundreds of Ketchowla, Terowie and Wonna at its creation.

[5] It gained a portion of the Hundred of Whyte in 1899, resulting in an increase from three to four numbered wards.

[6] The council's public works included roadworks throughout the district and kerbing, footpaths, stormwater drainage and tree planting in Terowie township, with more limited works in Yarcowie.

[7][8] In 1923, the council was responsible for an area of 475 square miles, with a population of 1,300 residing in 300 dwellings.

[9] The council ceased to exist on 1 May 1935 when it was amalgamated into the adjacent District Council of Hallett following a Local Government Commission report into reducing the number of municipalities in the state.
