Town of Vincent

What Town of Vincent does

The Town of Vincent (legal name: City of Vincent) is a local government authority operating in inner-metropolitan Perth, Western Australia. It delivers statutory municipal services — including planning and building approvals, local road and footpath maintenance, parks, community facilities, a public library, environmental health, and waste services — to residents and businesses across multiple inner-Perth suburbs within its declared local government area. The Council is led by an elected body headed by Mayor Alison Xamon and operates from its administrative headquarters in Leederville.

The City operates several dedicated service platforms and assets, most notably the Beatty Park Leisure Centre (a recreation and aquatic facility serving the broader community), the Imagine Vincent community engagement platform for project consultation, and a Verge Valet verge management service. It is a delivery partner in a multi-year underground power program with Western Power covering multiple localities within the LGA, and collaborates with Main Roads WA on local road safety and infrastructure initiatives. The City also runs targeted community programs including an E-Scooter Trial and sustainability initiatives such as waste education and environmental volunteering.

Its revenue model is that of a statutory local government: primarily rates levied on property owners within the LGA, supplemented by statutory fees and charges (planning, building, health, recreation), user fees from facilities such as Beatty Park, and grants from the Western Australian and Australian governments. As a non-incorporated government body, it is not a commercially investable entity; capital works are funded through rate revenue, reserves, borrowings, and external grants. No revenue, budget, or financial figures are disclosed in the available source material.
