Mayor & councillors
Wagga Wagga City Council has nine councillors, elected across the whole city — the council is undivided (no wards), so every resident votes for the same nine. The Mayor is chosen by the councillors (not by direct popular vote) for a two-year term. Below is who currently holds office, with links to their official profiles and the September 2024 election results.

We list who's in office and link to their official profiles and the election results; we don't characterise anyone's politics. Two councillors were endorsed by a registered party (Labor and the Greens); the other seven were elected under local independent groups and are shown as Independent. Party/group labels are those each councillor was elected under at the September 2024 election (NSW Electoral Commission). A council's makeup can change between elections — Cr Tim Koschel resigned in January 2026 and was replaced by Cr Michael Henderson via a countback — so the council's official page has the most current list.
