The Corporation of the Town of Walkerville (or Town of Walkerville) is a small local government area in the central suburbs of Adelaide, South Australia.

The residents of the Town of Walkerville are represented by a mayor and eight councillors. The area is home to the highest concentration of top earners in South Australia, and was named "South Australia's richest postcode" in 2016.

History

The District Council of Walkerville was first proclaimed on 5 July 1855, severing the area from the District Council of Yatala after a petition by local residents proclaimed a desire to break away from the larger District Council of Yatala (proclaimed in 1853). Initially, only the suburbs of Walkerville and Gilberton seceded from Yatala but within a few months, Medindie and North Walkerville (now part of Walkerville proper, east of Fuller Street) were annexed by Walkerville. The district boundaries remained unchanged until 1970 when Vale Park was annexed from the City of Enfield.

Early council meetings were held in a room at the local pub, the Sussex Arms. In 1893 the council seat moved across Stephen Terrace to the present location by the Walkerville Town Hall on Walkerville Terrace, Gilberton.

It was granted corporate town status on 1 October 1944, becoming the Town of Walkerville.

His term began on 1 July 1961 and ended on 4 July 1964. Milne defended the Trams that extended into suburban Adelaide and wished for them to be preserved for cultural significance. Also during his time on the council, Milne initiated action for a free public library in Walkerville and campaigned for the establishment of the town's YMCA Youth Centre.

Milne joined the Labor Party in the mid-1960s and supported the party in the 1966 Australian federal election. He resigned from the Walkerville council in December 1965 when he was appointed the Agent-General of South Australia in London by Premier Frank Walsh. Milne held many positions in the 1960s and 1970s, including President of the Municipal Association, Chairman of the Local Government Act Revision Committee, member of the Municipal Tramways Trust and Chairman of the State Government Insurance Commission. In December 1970, when the prospects of the United Kingdom joining the European Union started to grow greater, Milne said "If more countries go into the Common Market, it will start the gretatest war ever seen," later comparing the common market to the Roman Empire, stating that both would eventually become rich and subject to external pressures. When his term as South Australian Agent-General ended in 1971, he was made a Freeman of London.

Ernest Phillipson (1964-1966)

Captain Ernest Charles Phillipson (31 August 1911 – 22 September 2001) was born in August 1911 to Ernest Phillipson and Adelaide Constance Phillipson (nee Connor), who were both immigrants to South Australia. He served in the Australian military from 1938 to 1945 and married Kathleen Mary Powell (3 April 1916 – 7 May 2008) on 4 July 1940. During his early life, Phillipson was a farmer. Before and after the War, he was the Manager of the Airways Department at S.S. Coy Ltd., Adelaide.

In 1954, Phillipson was elected to the Council of the Town of St. Peters (in the modern day the City of Norwood Payneham & St Peters) for the Stepney ward. After serving on the council for 8 years, he announced he would resign his position at the upcoming elections in 1962.

In the Walkerville Council elections of June 1962, Phillipson was elected as an Alderman for the Medindie Ward. Phillipson was a member of most of the council committees and the chairman of many. In the next bi-annual elections, he was elected to the vacant office of mayor, replacing Lance Milne, who later became involved in South Australian politics at the state level. He resigned after only one term as mayor in 1966 and was re-elected to the Medindie Ward in 1966, 1968, 1970 and 1972 before he retired from the council at age 63 in April 1974.

After his retirement he was appointed by the Governor of South Australia to the Forestry Board of South Australia in 1975. His term was renewed in 1978 and expired on 31 December 1982. Phillipson died at his home in North Adelaide in September 2001 and was buried at Saint Judes Cemetery in Brighton in the Western Suburbs.

Leonard Ewens (1966-1969)

Ewens was Chairman of the Junior Red Cross from 1955-1960 and Honorary Treasurer from 1965–1973. Ewens and his wife Margaret represented the Australian Red Cross at the international conference in Tehran in 1973.

During his term as mayor, suburbs around the council's area were developing. In April 1970, Vale Park was annexed from the Enfield Council and transferred to the Walkerville Council. This increased the number of people Scales presided over and created a new ward in the council, which elected 2 members bi-annually. He was chairman of the Finance Committee from 1969–1977. During his terms as councillor and mayor, Scales persistently worked towards more open spaces in the council area, and was the first chairman of the River Torrens Improvements Standing Committee. Scales was re-elected as mayor in 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1974, 1975 & 1976. Throughout his career, he strongly opposed the amalgamation of the Town of Walkerville with others and defended the rights of smaller councils. After his term as mayor ended, Scales was elected to the council again as the member for the Medindie Ward in 1977 in a supplementary election to fill the vacancy left by Ken Price, who resigned after he was elected as mayor.
