Australian politician

Angelica Panopoulos is an Australian politician, currently the incumbent mayor of Merri-bek city council. She is the youngest elected member of that council, having been elected at the age of 23.

She was the Victorian Greens candidate for Pascoe Vale at the 2022 Victorian state election, narrowly losing to Anthony Cianflone.

Angelica is a member of the Greek-Australian community.

Mayoralty

As mayor she is known for her involvement in having discontinued citizenship ceremonies on Australia Day. Following this decision the council was targeted by racist extremists. She was also involved in renaming the Merri-Bek council from its previous name, the city of Moreland.

In May 2023 her council's resolutions were overruled by Victoria's planning minister in order to green-light apartment development.
