The 2002 Victorian local elections were held on 16 March 2002 to elect the councils of 17 of the 78 local government areas in Victoria, Australia.[1]
Until 2008, local elections in Victoria were conducted periodically, meaning 53 councils were not up for election in 2002.[2] The City of Melbourne was initially scheduled to hold its election in 2002, but it was instead brought forward to 22 July 2001 following a change to its electoral structure.[3]
All elections were conducted by the Victorian Electoral Commission with the exception of the City of Moreland, which conducted its own election.[4]
27 candidates were elected unopposed across the state, 24 of which were independents.[1]
