新南威尔士州雪谷理事会(NSW Snowy Valleys Council)的选民批准86%的全民公决, Voters in NSW’s Snowy Valleys Council approve 86% referendum to undo 2016 merger and restore separate councils.

2025年11月29日, 新南威尔士州雪谷委员会(New South Surny Snowy Valleys Council)居民投票86%支持扭转图姆巴伦巴和图穆特郡2016年合并, On November 29, 2025, residents of New South Wales’ Snowy Valleys Council voted 86% in favor of reversing the 2016 merger of Tumbarumba and Tumut shires, seeking to restore independent local councils. 由对自上而下治理和未兑现承诺的长期不满驱动的全民投票标志着朝向地方自治迈出的重要一步。 The referendum, driven by long-standing dissatisfaction with top-down governance and unmet promises, marks a significant step toward local autonomy. 预计拆合并过程至少需要两年时间，耗资480万美元，将需要重建基本服务并招聘过渡人员。 The de-amalgamation process, expected to take at least two years and cost $4.8 million, will require rebuilding essential services and hiring transition staff. 最终结果将于12月16日确认,之后将向州政府提交拆卸计划供批准。 Final results are pending confirmation on December 16, after which a demerger plan will be submitted to the state government for approval.
