Regional Local Government Associations

Local government in SA is organised in Regional Local Government Associations (RLGAs), which are independent associations.

There are six primary RLGAs in country SA (these can be seen coloured differently on the Council Maps page) as well as the Greater Adelaide Region of Councils (GAROC).

Representatives from the six country regions meet together as a committee called the SA Region Organisations of Councils (SAROC) Committee. There are also other groups which meet around common geographic interests.
