Shire of Peppermint Grove
The Shire of Peppermint Grove is a small local government area in western metropolitan Perth, the capital of Western Australia, between Mosman Park and Claremont about 12 km southwest of Perth's central business district. The Shire of Peppermint Grove, at 1.1 square kilometres (0.42 sq mi), is the smallest local government area in Australia.
Shire of Peppermint Grove History
From the Peppermint Grove Shire Council Website: https://www.peppermintgrove.wa.gov.au/
Peppermint Grove's long history goes back to 1835 when an innkeeper named John Butler was given a grant of land consisting of 150 acres along the north bank of the Swan River, the area now known as Peppermint Grove.
The land changed hands a number of times over the years, and in 1891, subdivision commenced when the land was purchased by a syndicate of George Leake, Charles Crossland and Alexander Forrest.
In its earlier days, Peppermint Grove was thickly wooded with tuarts, jarrahs, red gum, banksia, native pines, hollies and the beautiful peppermint trees which inspired its name. Brumbies roamed in the area, along with native cats, wallabies and an abundance of birds.
The subdivisions sold fast for between 7 and 12 pounds each (around $15 – $25) – an amount which is hard to comprehend today when vacant lots are selling for approximately up $3500 per square metre.
One of the earliest settlers was Edward Keane who later became Mayor of Perth. Another influential landowner was John Forrest, later to be Lord Forrest, Premier of Western Australia.
In 1895, after strong representations from residents, the area was gazetted a Road District, and the Peppermint Grove Road Board was established. Its main efforts were directed at providing essential roads and footpaths. The Road Board was the forerunner to the present Shire Council.
In those early days, the Premier of the day was at first reluctant to declare Peppermint Grove a Road District because of its small size, but the residents won through. Today, Peppermint Grove has the unique status of being the smallest municipality in Western Australia, covering just 1.5 square kilometres of land. From time to time, there have been calls for boundary change, but these have always been firmly rebuffed by residents.
The Shire has a population of over 1600, with a large proportion of residents who have long established links with the Shire going back over many generations. The Council today consists of seven Councillors, including a Shire President. There are five men and two women Councillors elected. The Shire’s Chief Executive Officer is readily accessible, and there is a marked absence of unnecessary bureaucracy. The Council recognises that a key objective of residents is to maintain the unique character of Peppermint Grove, and its policies and decisions are formulated to that end. Many of the Council’s strategies and initiatives are specifically directed at helping to preserve, maintain and enhance the ambience of Peppermint Grove.

Peppermint GroveAbout the Turkish Language
Turkish is the most widely spoken of the Turkic languages, with around 10–15 million native speakers in Southeast Europe (mostly in East and Western Thrace) and 60–65 million native speakers in Western Asia (mostly in Anatolia).
Turkish as an official EU language, even though Turkey is not a member state.
The earliest known Old Turkic inscriptions are the three monumental Orkhon inscriptions found in modern Mongolia. Erected in honour of the prince Kul Tigin and his brother Emperor Bilge Khagan, these date back to the second Turk Kaghanate. After the discovery and excavation of these monuments and associated stone slabs by Russian archaeologists in the wider area surrounding the Orkhon Valley between 1889 and 1893, it became established that the language on the inscriptions was the Old Turkic language written using the Old Turkic alphabet, which has also been referred to as "Turkic runes" or "runiform" due to a superficial similarity to the Germanic runic alphabets.
With the Turkic expansion during Early Middle Ages (c. 6th–11th centuries), peoples speaking Turkic languages spread across Central Asia, covering a vast geographical region stretching from Siberia and to Europe and the Mediterranean. The Seljuqs of the Oghuz Turks, in particular, brought their language, Oghuz—the direct ancestor of today's Turkish language—into Anatolia during the 11th century. Also during the 11th century, an early linguist of the Turkic languages, Mahmud al-Kashgari from the Kara-Khanid Khanate, published the first comprehensive Turkic language dictionary and map of the geographical distribution of Turkic speakers in the Compendium of the Turkic Dialects (Ottoman Turkish: Divânü Lügati't-Türk).

Turkish Document Translation
Turkish spoken in Turkey (Istanbul Turkish) forms the basis of the standard language, but documents may also originate from Turkish-speaking communities in Cyprus, the Balkans, and Central Asia, each with localised vocabulary. Northern Cyprus issues official documents in Turkish with terminology that sometimes diverges from Republic of Turkey conventions. Ottoman-era documents, still occasionally presented for genealogical or property purposes, use an entirely different script and archaic vocabulary requiring specialist expertise.
Turkish Document Types
A birth certificate is a doğum belgesi or nüfus kayıt örneği (population register extract), and a marriage certificate is an evlenme cüzdanı. Criminal record certificates are issued as adli sicil kaydı, and university diplomas are titled simply diploma or mezuniyet belgesi.
Where Turkish Is Official
Turkish is the official language of both the Republic of Turkey and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, and it holds co-official status in Cyprus overall. It is a recognised minority language in Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Kosovo, and North Macedonia. Turkish is not an official EU language but is used in EU accession negotiations and in the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe.
Turkish adopted the Latin alphabet in 1928 under Atatürk's language reforms, replacing the Ottoman Arabic script. The modern Turkish alphabet includes six special characters — ç, ğ, ı (dotless i), ö, ş, and ü — each representing distinct phonemes. The distinction between dotted i and dotless ı is particularly critical in names and must be preserved exactly.
About Shire of Peppermint Grove
The Shire of Peppermint Grove is the smallest local government area in Western Australia, covering just 1.5 square kilometres between the Swan River and Stirling Highway. With a population of approximately 1,700, it is an exclusive, low-density residential enclave known for heritage homes and large riverfront properties.
The shire consists entirely of the single suburb of Peppermint Grove, bordered by Mosman Park, Cottesloe, and Claremont.
The shire offices and the Peppermint Grove Library are on Stirling Highway. Community facilities are modest given the small population, with the Peppermint Grove Tennis Club and local foreshore reserves serving as the primary recreational spaces.
Stirling Highway runs through the centre of the shire, providing direct road access to both Perth CBD and Fremantle. The nearest train stations are in neighbouring Cottesloe and Claremont on the Fremantle line, both within walking distance.
