The district is located between Townsville and Bowen in the delta of the Burdekin River. It covers an area of {{convert|5052.5|km2|sqmi|1}}, and has existed as a local government entity since 1888. HistoryOn 16 January 1888, the Ayr Division was created out of Subdivision 3 of the Thuringowa Division in 1888 under the Divisional Boards Act 1887.[2] With the passage of the Local Authorities Act 1902, Ayr Division became the Shire of Ayr on 31 March 1903.[3] On 12 June 1982, the Shire of Ayr was renamed the Shire of Burdekin, a change long desired by the residents of Home Hill.[3][5] Council members were elected to represent different divisions within the shire until the election of March 1994 at which all council members are elected by all shire residents. The title of Mayor replaced the former title of Shire Chairman and the title of Shire Clerk was replaced by Chief Executive Officer from that same election.[5] New shire chambers were opened on 9 October 1999. The cost was $2.8 million.[4] From 2000, council elections were held every four years to elect a mayor and ten councillors. From 2008, this was reduced to a mayor and six councillors.[4] FacilitiesThe public library headquarters of the Burdekin Shire Council Library Services is located at 108 Graham Street, Ayr.[5] The Burdekin Shire also operate a public library in Home Hill at 77-79 Ninth Avenue.[6] Both libraries opened in 1984.[7] Towns and localitiesThe Shire of Burdekin includes the following settlements: {{col-begin|width=40%}}{{col-break}}
