These were the first elections for the council in over two years, after it was suspended in March 2018 due to issues arising from the behaviour of councillors.[1]
Media personality Basil Zempilas was elected lord mayor for a three-year term. Four of the eight councillors were elected for a one-year term until the 2021 election, while the other four were elected until 2023.[1]
