History
The Municipality of Busselton was gazetted on 21 February 1871 and elections for members were held on 8 March 1871. An order-in-council gazetted on 11 May 1951 amalgamated the Busselton Municipal Council and the Sussex Road Board as the Busselton Road Board. On 7 September 1928 the Busselton Municipal Council was appointed under the provisions of the Cemeteries Act, 1897 as a Board to control and manage the Busselton Cemetery (Reserve 9298 at 4-Mile Hill).
