City of Canada Bay Council, Local government area in Inner West Sydney, Australia
City of Canada Bay is an administrative region in inner west Sydney that covers nearly 20 square kilometers and includes seventeen distinct suburbs. The area sits between the Parramatta River and Parramatta Road, forming two peninsulas connected by a narrow strip of land.
The region formed on December 1, 2000, when two separate councils—Concord and Drummoyne—merged into a single administrative body. This consolidation unified governance for the previously separate communities.
The area attracts families and professionals seeking a balance between riverside living and urban convenience. You will find local shops, dining spots, and community centers where residents of different backgrounds naturally gather.
The area is governed by nine elected councillors, including a directly elected mayor, who oversee waste management, libraries, and recreational facilities. Visitors will find easily accessible local services and public facilities throughout the various suburbs.
The suburb of Canada Bay itself serves as a geographical bridge between the two peninsulas and lends its name to the entire region. This geographical feature shapes the identity and layout of the whole administrative unit.
