Town of Boulder

The Town of Boulder was a local government area in Western Australia, centred on the town of Boulder.

It was established as the Municipality of Boulder on 6 August 1897. It was given town status as the Town of Boulder on 1 July 1961.

The municipality was responsible for the construction of the Boulder Town Hall as its new headquarters in 1907-08.

It ceased to exist on 1 July 1969, when it was absorbed into the neighbouring Shire of Kalgoorlie, which was subsequently renamed the Shire of Boulder in November that year.
