The Penrith Local Government Area is made up of three wards – North, South and East – and Penrith City Council includes five representatives from each ward.

Following the Saturday 4 December election, the 15 men and women who are voted in will work together over the next three years to make decisions about what Council will do to meet community needs and how money should be spent in the best interests of the whole community.
