Council celebrates 50 years this July In 2021, Alice Springs Town Council will mark 50 years of serving the Red Centre and we want you to help us celebrate! Alice Springs Town Council’s first election was held on 25 June 1971, with the town officially becoming a municipality on 1 July 1971. Some of this town’s most notable names were part of the first Council with Marlene Brown, Brian Martin, Paul Everingham, Len Kittle, Dave Baldock, Andrew McPhee, Peter Leunig and Allan Dunstan all elected as Aldermen with Jock Nelson voted as our first Mayor. This revolutionary group held their first meeting on 5 July 1971 and now, 50 years later, it’s time to celebrate.
