City of South Sydney
The South Sydney City Council was a former local government area covering the inner-eastern and inner-southern suburbs of Sydney, Australia. It was forcibly merged with the Sydney City Council by the New South Wales State Government in 2004. The council chambers were located in the Erskineville Town Hall, with the administrative offices at Joynton Avenue in Zetland. The administrative offices were relocated to the TNT tower building in Redfern in 2001.
==History==
The forerunner of the City of South Sydney was the Northcott Municipal Council, which was created in 1968 when the City of Sydney boundaries were changed. Newtown, part of Darlington, and all of Erskineville, Alexandria, Waterloo and Redfern were combined to form the new council. The council was later renamed the South Sydney Municipal Council, which was itself abolished in 1982 and all of these areas were returned to the City of Sydney.
In the late 1980s the New South Wales State Government perceived that the Sydney City Council was insufficiently committed to some major infrastructural projects such as the monorail and the redevelopment of Darling Harbour. In March 1987 the New South Wales State Government dismissed the Council of the enlarged City of Sydney from office and replaced it with appointed commissioners who administered the city until December 1988. A special inquiry and subsequent report (the Goran Report) advocated separating the central business district (CBD) from surrounding suburbs and replacing municipal government in the CBD with a special commission to ensure it was governed as a financial, commercial and tourist centre.〔(Background to the City of South Sydney’s establishment ) Archives Investigator, State Records Authority of New South Wales, accessed 6 May 2009.〕 In 1989, a new South Sydney City Council was created with the pre- 1982 areas but also including most of Surry Hills and the eastern side of the City from the Domain to Boundary Road, including Woolloomooloo and Kings Cross, Potts Point and Elizabeth Bay which had not previously been a part of South Sydney.
In 2002, parts of the City of South Sydney and Leichhardt were proposed to be merged with the City of Sydney. In 2003, Potts Point, Elizabeth Bay, Kings Cross, Darlinghurst, Chippendale, Ultimo, and parts of Rushcutters Bay, Camperdown and Darlington were transferred from South Sydney to the City of Sydney. As the financial viability of the residual City of South Sydney was under threat, the City of Sydney and the City of South Sydney were combined on 27 March 2004.〔(Records of Councils Absorbed by Sydney City Council ). City of Sydney, accessed 28 April 2009.〕 The 2003 merger was perceived as an attempt to bring more working class Labor Party voters into the City of Sydney as a way of unseating the independent Lord Mayor of Sydney, Clover Moore.〔(The Guardian ), Communist Party of Australia, accessed 28 April 2009.〕〔O'Rourke, C. (Costly loss for South Sydney as court rules on council turf war ), Sydney Morning Herald, 21 August 2001.〕
