It was amalgamated into the City of Perth in 1917 after becoming unsustainable as an autonomous political entity. The last mayor was Charles Harper. On 1 July 1994, the Government of Western Australia decided to split up the local government area of the City of Perth, creating three additional LGAs and retain a smaller City of Perth. The new LGAs were the Town of Vincent, the Town of Cambridge and the Town of Shepperton which was later changed to its current name 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Town of Victoria Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
