The local government areas (LGAs) of Victoria, Australia are the defined areas within which legally constituted local government authorities, known as councils, have responsibilities to provide local services. Determining the size and shape of the local government areas is the sole responsibility of the Victoria State Government.
In the past, many local government areas have been amalgamated or abolished, either voluntarily or involuntarily.
